The Victoria-based circus act will start their new tour in Melbourne on June 22nd.
(TRAVPR.COM) UK - May 13th, 2011 - Circus Oz are set to kick off their latest Australian tour by bringing their new show - Steampowered - to Melbourne for a month-long run.
The steam-punk spectacular will see the ensemble present their unique brand of madness to audiences in the Victoria capital from June 22nd to July 17th 2011.
After forming in Melbourne back in 1978, Circus Oz have gone on to wow crowds in 26 countries across five continents, earning widespread critical acclaim in the process.
The founding members loved the skills and tricks that can be seen in traditional circus performances, but were keen to inject elements of rock'n'roll, satire and popular theatre to help their shows appeal to a contemporary audience.
These ideals have helped to create the family-friendly, animal-free Circus Oz that exists today.
Describing the show on its official website, the company said: "Expect two hours of breathtaking agility, death-defying stunts, awe-inspiring acrobatic performances, irreverent comedy and a spectacular live band."
Tickets cost from AU$48 to AU$82 depending on the seat, but fans should act fast as some nights have already sold out.

Lifting the veil on conflict, culture and politics
from Russell Boyce:
Asia – A Week in Pictures 31 July 2011
Ramadan started in Asia on Sunday and Indonesia-based photographer Ahmed Yusef produced this beautiful image to mark the start of the most important period in the Muslim calendar. The viewer focuses on the young woman's eyes as the red scarf draws you to her through a sea of swirling white created by a slow exposure. Also in Indonesia, Dwi Oblo's picture draws you into the picture through light and smoke to evoke a real feeling of people humbling themselves as they pay respects to their dead relatives as they also prepare for Ramadan.

Muslims around the world abstain from eating, drinking and conducting sexual relations from sunrise to sunset during Ramadan, the holiest month in the Islamic calendar. REUTERS/Ahmad Yusuf

Pakistan Chief photographer Adrees Latif, Karachi-based photographer Akhtar Soomro and Peshawar-based Fayaz Aziz marked the year since the Pakistan floods to return to the area that was devastated by the disaster which forced millions to move in search of shelter, drinking water and food. Adrees tracked down the people and scenes he photographed a year ago and using the format of combination pictures produced a revealing set of pictures that just won't let you look away and prompts the question - how much better off are these people a year on? I was tempted to just to highlight the combination pictures but Akhtar's picture of the crying child cradled in his father's legs just too strong to leave out.
from Russell Boyce:
Asia – A Week in Pictures 06 March 2011
I do enjoy a coincidence. The week after calls for prodemocracy demonstrations under the social media tag of "Jasmine Revolution" and the week before the National People's Congress (NPC), International journalists (and I of course include photographers under this title) are brought in by the authorities for "chat". During the "chat" they are reminded of the terms of their journalist visas and how quickly these visas can be revoked if the rules are broken on illegal reporting. Also outlined are places that special permission is needed to report from, Tiananmen Square heading the list. Our picture of a member of the PLA leaving the Great Hall in Tiananmen Square appearing to almost step on the photographer with this low angle picture, as I said I do love a coincidence.
A military delegate from the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) leaves the Great Hall of the People after a meeting during the annual session of China's parliament, the National People's Congress, in Beijing March 4, 2011. China said on Friday that its official military budget for 2011 will rise 12.7 percent over last year, returning to the double-digit rises that have stoked regional disquiet about Beijing's expanding strength.

Mark Maynard
The Independent
I've been feeling a bit nostalgic this week because my son reached a milestone birthday age.
Could he really be 30 years old? Where did the years go? I have a son who's 30 years old?
Surely not?
Surely so.
Like it or not, I'm getting old. It seems like I was just pushing 30 myself. But the years have marched on seemingly without me even knowing. Sometimes I look in the mirror and don't recognize that guy. What happened to Mark?
It was back in 1983 when our lives changed forever with the birth of the first of our two children. Nothing has been the same since for us. Your life becomes their life. Their triumphs are your triumphs. Their trials are your trials.
It's all good, all in God's master plan. But it's certainly an amazing journey. My best advice would be to enjoy the ride and savor the moments. Then when you're looking back on 30 years like I am today, you'll have no regrets. I don't. I maintain a strong relationship with both my son and daughter even though neither is living in the area. I'm proud of who they've become and proud of their spouses, too.
Now, if they will just start working on making me a grandpa.
Surely I'm not that old.
Well, not yet anyway.
I remember the day before Stephen was born, I was covering a football game at Henry R. Evans Stadium in Russell and my wife was with me. Ivan McGlone hadn't even been on the Red Devil sidelines 10 years at that point.
Beth was feeling a little uncomfortable and we both thought it was because of the frozen burrito we had for supper before the game. She just couldn't get comfortable on one of those press box stools (frankly, I was having a little trouble myself).
She wasn't due for another week so having the baby wasn't foremost in our minds as to the discomfort she was experiencing.
But the next day, Stephen came screaming into the world. He was our bouncing baby boy. What a moment!
It wasn't trumpeted on Facebook or Twitter, and giraffes were still only known as the animal from Africa and not everybody's profile picture. As a matter of fact, we didn't even have the Internet. And, you know what, we seemed to handle everything just fine.
You couldn't ask Google what the baby sound goo-goo really meant. You had to figure it out yourself.
My wife was four years into what has been an amazing 34-year teaching career at Rose Hill Christian School. I was eight years into my career as a sportswriter at this newspaper, never imagining that the next 30 years would take me to the corner office, and never knowing the stories I would be able to share and tell to our readership over those years.
Some of that space was about my children, like the day Stephen caught a home run ball in Great American Ball Park or the excitement and buildup of my daughter's wedding that became an instruction guide for fathers who were going through that same, uh, joy.
I have a child who's 30 years old?
You've got to be kidding me.
Messiah sing update

The N.C. High School Athletic Association is classifying boys' lacrosse this spring for the first time so 4A Apex will no longer battle 3A Cardinal Gibbons in the regular season and the playoffs. Gibbons moves into the NCHSAA's new 3A/2A/1A combined bracket.
Gibbons was the favorite to win last year's NCHSAA title but was upset by rival Apex in the third round. The Crusaders (18-2) had beaten Apex twice in conference play.
But Apex (20-2) won the third-round playoff game 13-9 and went on to claim the state title with a 12-11 victory over Lake Norman.
Southern Pines Pinecrest, Fuquay-Varina, Northern Vance, Topsail, South Brunswick, Havelock and Jacksonville White Oak plan to field boys lacrosse teams this spring.
Teams to watch
Apex (20-2): The 2013 state champions return 12 who played in the 2013 title game. Mike Daum (30 goals), VMI recruit Colby Lalicker, and goalie Tyler Nesbitt, who was red-hot in the postseason and earned N&O All-Metro honors after gaining state championship game MVP honors, lead the veterans. Junior Brendan Farrell scored 37 goals in 2013 and defenders Cameron Randall and Joe Copeland also are back.
Cardinal Gibbons (18-2): The Crusaders will have all-conference picks Robbie Lavelle and Chris Lappin to go along with midfielder Gannon Morrison, a Marist recruit, who was an all-American pick with 42 goals and 37 assists.
East Chapel Hill (16-3): East Chapel Hill lost to Apex, 11-7, in the Eastern championship game. Hampden-Sydney recruit Ian Levin, who led the area in scoring in 2013 with 109 points, is back as is top defender Daniel Wittekind.
Ravenscroft (12-5): The Ravens were a state semifinalist in the N.C. Independent Schools Athletic Association playoffs led by senior attacker Jamie Herakovich (41 goals, 16 assists).
Broughton (16-3): The Caps made a push into the third round last season behind Washington & Lee recruit Davis Weaver (56 goals, 20 assists). Nine starters return. Sophomore midfielder Mitchell Snyder and junior Hayden Lovett, a High Point commitment, were all-conference. Senior midfielder Drew Hinton is a Hampden Sydney commitment.
Holly Springs (12-6): The Hawks lost 7-6 in overtime in the second round to Broughton after taking down Durham Jordan 10-8 in the first round.
Jordan (13-3): Thomas Schmidt is an all-American pick at midfield and Boston University senior recruit Patrick Rowe also returns.
Chapel Hill (12-5): Tigers lost to Gibbons 15-8 in the second round and returns junior Colin Mraz (38 goals, 18 assists).
Middle Creek (10-7): The Mustangs return all-conference player Justin Medwar, a Lynchburg College recruit.
Riverside (11-7): The Pirates return 18 players including C.J. Carpenter to a team that made it to the second round of the NCHSAA playoffs.
Athens Drive (7-9): Jaguars will be led by its fifth coach in as many seasons but have senior leaders Scott Baird (Mercer), Justin Moody and Giancarlo Vasselli.
Leesville Road (12-5): Nine starters return for the Pride, including all-conference picks Ryan Moreno, Cody Close and Drew Farrell.
Heritage (6-10): The Huskies expect better things with the return of Dillon Campbell (Navy), Justin Potwin (Limestone) and Ryan Varner (Belmont Abbey).

The 3rd Birthday Review
This is not Parasite Eve III. Yes, it looks a whole lot like Parasite Eve, it has nasty gooey Parasite Eve-looking monsters, it does the Parasite Eve action-game-meets-RPG thing, and it stars a leggy blonde named Aya Brea, just like Parasite Eve. But it is not Parasite Eve III, and the Square Enix legal department resents the implication.No matter what it's called, this is a pretty decent 3D... Read More

I am a Cutler fan but I have to say the cartoon is brilliant and really gives you an accurate feel of the QB situation in Denver.
September 8, 2007
September 8, 2007
Very true.
I wonder how the mood will change if Cutler fumbles his first snap.
I wonder how the mood will change if Cutler throws 4 touchdowns.
I wonder how the mood will change if Cutler throws 4 interceptions.
I wonder how the mood will change is the Broncos are suddenly 3-5 after the first half of the season.
There are plenty of folks that have faith in Cutler. I just look at it from the standpoint that the Broncos are still an injury or two away from a total disaster. They are laying all their hope on the shoulders of a QB that has started all of 5 games in the NFL, and who cannot seem to take a snap from center without dropping it.
Not much to pin that hope on.
And judging from the Indy/Saints game....the Colts are going to absolutely kill the Broncos.
Lets see....
San Diego
New England
All those teams are far better than Denver. The Broncos simply have no shot to beat out that many obvious contenders.
21-9 Buffalo wins. Cutler throws 2 picks and fumbles at least once. Travis Henry is benched for fumbling 3 times. Bailey is lost for the season due to injury.
Denver: 6
Buffalo 0
Aren't predictions fun? It won't matter if I'm right or wrong. Because I'm not a fan of either team. It's just my guess.
September 9, 2007
The Broncos did just about what I expected them to. They did surprise me by winning the game.
Another surprise is Elam who seems to be missing more field goals than normal, something I noticed beginning from last year.
I really don't have any predictions but the team has a ways to go in defense/special teams play, particularly since the Special Teams look no better, if not worse, than last year. The offense was flat against the Bills, but there will be a much better determination of how the offense will go, I'd say, by week 6.
September 9, 2007
I wonder how the mood will change if Cutler throws for 300 yards and converts 2 4th downs on the final drive.........after making a boneheaded play that could have blown the entire game.....
September 9, 2007
.....and I wonder how the mood will change after Henry rushes for 139 yards.
...I wonder how the mood will change after Elam kicks a clutch/last second field goal after previously missing 2 field goals during the game.
I wonder how the mood will change after the Broncs win 15-14 and get the "W".
September 9, 2007
My thoughts:
The Broncos had to work that hard against a team that was 7-9 last year. Not a good sign.
Yes, they won. But everything that was a concern in the preseason is still a concern.
Jay Cutler is a total bonehead. He apparently was paying very close attention to Jake last year. WTF was that "pass" he sent into the backfield?
Swatting the ball out of bounds to avoid a turnover should be a 25 yeard penalty and loss of down. You FALL on the ball or you give it up. Swatting it out of bounds because you're scared to fall on the ball is not football.
Denver's special teams SUCK.
Jason Elam is unreliable. He is not the wonder boy anymore. He's an average kicker at best now in a league of average kickers. Any glory days he has on his resume mean nothing now.
Jay Cutler's career is going to come to a very sudden end by a defender breaking Jay's legs if he continues to run with the ball like he does. Eithe that or he's going to make SportsCenter highlights by chasing his own head downfield.
The Bronco's linemen were not in set position for the "winning" field goal. There should have been a penalty for a false start and the clock should have then run out.
The Broncos have nothing to be happy about.
They have been exposed.
Also consider that San Diego laid waste to a Bears team today, while the Broncos were playing a non playoff team.
Also consider that the Bills were dealing with injury losses to their secondary during the game and the fact that a lot of the Bills were shaken from watching one of their own taken away in an ambulance.
All of that, and the Broncos had to rely on a last second kick that should have been blown dead for a false start.
September 9, 2007
Yes, Denver didn't really deserve to win today's game. And yes, there are better teams out there. And we all know you're a spoilsport who loves ranting here.
You know what? We don't care. We'll take the ugly win over an ugly loss any day.
And if we don't make the playoffs, that's okay. Elway didn't shake up the world his first (full) season, either. Remember when he lined up behind the wrong guy? Remember how it took until his fourth Super Bowl to win it all? Remember how he won it again the next year and then retired at the top of his game?
Sure, we'd like to go to the Super Bowl again. But there are 32 teams with the same goal. That means 31 teams will have disappointing seasons, even (or perhaps especially) for the one who loses it.
It just seems funny to me that for someone who rants and raves about how much he's not a fan of the Broncos seems to have so many exhaustively-researched things to say about them.
Keep writing, Tom. And keep ranting. Most of us regard you the same way we regard someone like Rush Limbaugh (or Norm Chomsky, just to be balanced); full of sound and fury signifying nothing. That doesn't mean we don't get a chuckle out of you; we just refuse to let you tell us what team we will support.
September 9, 2007
....and I wonder how the mood will change when the Broncos put a "notch" in the W column.
...and I wonder what excuses Tom will give when the Broncs prove his predictions wrong. Ooooops, looks like the Broncs aleady spoiled "Perfect Tom's" predictions and Tom already dished his excuses."
Prediction: Tom will "predict" the Broncos to lose every upcoming game this season.
Prediction: IF and WHEN the Broncos do win, Tom will come up with a few excuses to underscore said win.
Prediction: Tom will never enjoy the feeling of elation as related to sports as many Bronco fans experienced today as shown in Drew's most recent cartoon.
Prediction: Tom will laugh at this post as we all laugh at his. Cheers Tom......it's always good to have a little fun on the net.
Keep "Stirring the Pot" Tom......I do enjoy reading your "rants and raves". :)
September 10, 2007
C'mon, Tom. Predicting a season ending injury is pretty harsh. Football is a violent game, but nobody wants to see anyone get hurt.
Except for you.
Because you are a lowlife.
Oh, and San Diego "laid waste" to the Bears? Maybe you only watch/research the Broncos, but I watched that game, and I think that "laid waste" is quite the overstatement. LT had 25 rushing yards on 17 carries and was at -1 until the two minute warning of the first half. At halftime, the Bears were "laying waste" to the Chargers. Sure the Chargers D looked stingy, but against who? The Bears offense was abysmal for the whole game and their running game is non-existent. Grossman is terrible. They don't have any offensive weapons. They are in the NFC (read: JV). Methinks the Broncs will give them a better run than that.
Also, the Jags better than the Broncos? Puh-lease. You better ease up on the sauce, pally.
September 10, 2007
Everything from the pre-season still a concern?
I disagree. The defense held Buffalo to something like 189 yards even with that new offensive line and that hotshot running back they had. There was only one drive that ended with a score. Offensively the Broncos moved the chains quite a bit but had trouble scoring as well.
Statistically, the Broncos dominated that game in every stat but the scoreboard (and i understand that is the one that mattered.)
But if the Broncos did not deserve to win the game then who did? Buffalo? Based on what? Their missed field goal try? Their horrible clock management with that last trive where they stopped the clock twice on a run out of bounds and long pass that was overthrown?
Bottom line, there are 60 minutes in regulation, and by the tome the clock hit zero, the Broncos had more points than Buffalo.
September 15, 2007
Sounds like Tom and his "team" must have lost and he needs to feel better by ripping another team.
Small minds hmmm.

A Ruthless Criticism of Everything Existing is an album about resistance, power, global revolution, philosophy and is Sole's first solo album in 7 years. The album title is lifted from a Marx letter by the same name. This is an avant guard hip-hop album taking the rap-as-critical-theory aesthetic that sole have been developing over the past few years with the Nuclear Winter Mixtapes to a more concrete and original musical format. Following up on the critical success of "Hello Cruel World," "A Ruthless Criticism Of Everything Existing," is the next logical step in this development of rap music; it is challenging & sometimes poppy while pushing things in a more experimental, belligerent, and militant direction.
Like previous sole solo albums, ARCOEE has a multitude of collaborations with various producers. Featuring: Busdriver, Alias, Open Mike Eagle, Alias, Ryan Hemsworth, Ausker, Factor, Man Mantis, & More.

Game 47: Killer Bees 3, IceRays 2 (and a whole lotta Steinel)
February 7, 2009 11:15 PM
One long night of special-teams ineptitude in the Valley. Yes, the IceRays' power play was 2 for 17. And it was uglier than that statistic looked. The fact Arizona lost to Amarillo makes this loss even tougher to digest since that was a big two points Corpus lost out on.
Observations (and not many since this was a pretty forgettable game for anyone on hand):
- Quite simply, this was the most unwatchable one-goal game I've ever had to witness. That includes watching the Devils of the mid-1990s put people to sleep with their trap. A game with 26 combined power plays? Ugh.
- I know some of you are expecting me to rip Tom Steinel for his performance. Certainly, he heard the disapproval during the game and apparently as he exited the ice surface. But folks, this is a larger issue than Tom Steinel. He's a young, first-year referee in this league and it's apparent he has a standard of officiating to live up to. That means calling things tightly. I've said here before that if you want to call things by the NHL standard, then you need NHL players because to be blunt, CHL players can't adjust to those parameters. I do realize more CHL refs make it to the NHL than players. But the last time I checked, are fans coming to see the next Frederick L'Ecuyer or Gord Dwyer or do they want to see hard-hitting hockey with the referee in the background? At some point, you have to consider what your customers want. Since people in the 480 apparently read this blog judging by some of the e-mails and voicemails I receive, what is it you as fans want to see? Twenty-six power plays? I certainly hope not.
- So what decided this game, the IceRays' ineffective power play or Rio's penalty kill? To be honest, some of both. When a referee is basically putting the game on a silver platter, you have to seize it. Corpus did not. They didn't score on 15 straight power plays, including five 5-on-3's. Yes, five 5-on-3's. They had chances, sure, and even hit a post or two. But at some point you've got to bear down and score and not miss the net as many times as the IceRays did. The skill level is there. But Rio deserves credit for its PK work because there were a couple of 5-on-3's where Corpus got little in the way of offensive-zone time or quality chances. And yes, how ironic is the IceRays' power-play failure since it was them who set the single-game record for PP goals this year?
- In fitting with the IceRays' fortunes against the Bees this year, it took Rio a combined 35 seconds to score its three PP goals. That would be 13 seconds on the first one, 7 on the second one and the last one took an eternity, 15 seconds.
- In six years on this beat, I'm not sure I've ever seen a team match up so badly against an opponent like Corpus has against Rio. Those years when Laredo pounded Corpus, there was an obvious disparity in talent. But I can't believe Rio's roster is more talent-laden than Corpus this year. Rather, the Bees' work ethic is just relentless while the IceRays always seem to have a lapse or two that proves to be their undoing.
- Shreveport ends that skid against Texas.
- Colorado extends Oke City's slide this week.
- I didn't expect Tulsa to give Laredo a battle late into the third. This game is funny sometimes.
- Odessa-Wichita had to be fun to watch. Still, I wonder how teams get called for too many men penalties in OT. It seems rather inexcusable to me.
- Odessa-Wichita had to be fun to watch. Still, I wonder how teams get called for too many men penalties in OT. It seems rather inexcusable to me.
- Finally, I had a couple of people ask me if that indeed was Tracy Egeland who posted on that message board today. Well, I spoke to him Saturday afternoon and he confirmed it. There you go, straight from the horse's mouth.
Two brutal losses to Rio this week coupled with the Icerays posting a 2-4 record during their difficult six game stretch against Laredo , Texas , and Odessa seem to have defined this team - yet I still struggle for an actual "definition". I thought the 2-1 win against Laredo on Friday night was the best game the Icerays played all year. They played hard for sixty minutes and never took a shift off the entire game. This is the type of effort that has eluded this team all year. The special teams continue to be a huge problem. It sure would be nice if they had one or two guys who could cut loose hard and accurate slapshots from the point on the power play. Giving up three power play goals inside of 40 seconds on each kill opportunity is obviously unacceptable. How is this team only 3 points out of a playoff spot? Maybe a good run is still to come.
I agree that the referees cannot hold the players to an NHL standard. Somewhere between Steinel and Cruickshank, there must be a happy medium. I like the way Zac Weibe calls a game - he has been consistent in his approach in the games I have seen him work over the last two years. Greg - Who are your top 3 officials for the year so far relating to consistent performance?
[My top 3 officials? Interesting question. OK, here goes:
1. Timm Walsh: I've only seen him like four or five times in the past two seasons, but he impressed me every time. He let the teams play and called the necessary penalties. The games he called were always easy to watch and you never really noticed him, good or bad.
2. Steve Cruickshank: The best thing about him is you know what you'll get. The games he works will have flow. He'll let some stuff slide, but it'll go both ways. And he won't let guys complain or talk back to him about calls or non-calls.
3. Zac Wiebe: I haven't seen him as much this year, but he's pretty consistent and has improved since I first saw him.
Honorable mention: Mark Lemelin. He's improved vastly in the past two seasons.]
Have you sent the e-mail/letter yet? You are coming closer and closer to the "dark side". A black and teal jersey awaits.
Well as far as the talent comparison between Corpus and Rio I have to disagree with you a little. With Richards being the exception I think the Bees either match up or are better down the line. Bennefield is better than anyone on the IceRays with the exception of Richards and Quenneville. As a group the Bees D is better.They are better in net. It is no accident Dumoulin is an All-Star. The real difference is the team speed they have. No doubt on paper the IceRays have more talent. On the ice the Bees do.
Squandered FIVE 5 on 3s?
I've never heard of such.
Lemelin has always been one of my favorites and I've long considered him to be underrated in our league.
He called two very good games this weekend at our place. Called enough penalties to keep the boys honest yet he didn't become the overlord of the game as a Steinel or Floru would have done.
And he's a courteous, accessible young man.
52 minutes of power play in a 60 minute game............ He Sucks. The 30 lame call game can't be far off. We are not a true developmental league like baseball has. Yes we might get the occasional player that makes an NHL appearance. But the games need to be fun and a game like Steinel usually calls is anything but. Some might say he was trying to help the Rays out. As bad as our power plays is I think he hurt us. I would rather have 5 men on the Ice than our PP unit out there.
Should have seen latrine duty Lemmy in his first season! He made Floru look competent!!!!!

Threlfall: I can shave at last!
12:22am Sunday 24th February 2013 in Showbiz © Press Association 2014
David Threlfall has joked he is looking forward to the end of Shameless as he can finally have a shave.
The 59-year-old actor has played chaotic anti-hero Frank Gallagher in the Bafta-winning drama for the last 10 years, and it is about to come to an end with an eleventh and final series.
David quipped: "It means that for the first time in 10 years, I'll be able to shave and have a haircut."
The actor defended the show, created by Paul Abbott for running for so long.
He said: "Listen, I know people have a pop at the show because it's been on so long now but the issue's always been to never settle on things.
"You can only reflect the time you're in and we've tried to keep pace with and reflect what's going on."
He added: "It's a very close-knit community on the set of Shameless, with production and cast working so closely for so long but it had to end sometime.
"I was happy to stay with Frank and the production until it was decided it was time to leave the world according to Chatsworth Estate."
:: The final series of Shameless begins on Channel 4 on Tuesday, February 26

Pistons likely promoting George David to replace Scott Perry
Source: Pistons likely to promote Director of Scouting George David to assistant GM to replace Scott Perry, who took Asst GM job in Orlando.
This will be an interesting test of the Tom Gores regime. Will the Pistons replace David or just with a smaller – and cheaper – front office?
Jun 25, 2012 • 4:19 pm
by bugsygod
It seems with all the palace upgrades Gores doesn't seem like he is trying to run a cheap organization. Do you think David wont be replaced? Just a legit question, not trying to be a jerk or nothing.
Jun 25, 2012 • 5:44 pm
by Mark
Sounds good. I like David better than Perry and would be fine is he stays as VP. But Gores has been willing to upgrade a lot of other positions in the organization, so I wouldn't be surprised if he used this as an opportunity to get someone even better than Perry/David alongside Joe.

AUGUSTA — On an 8-4 party-line vote, the Legislature's Appropriations Committee on Thursday passed a supplemental budget for the Department of Health and Human Services that would close an estimated $83 million budget shortfall.
Members of the Legislature's Republican majority said the measure would make what they consider "structural changes" to the DHHS budget. It also would remove about 7,000 19- and 20-year-olds from MaineCare, the state's low-income health insurance program.
The spending plan reduces the state's share of funding for Head Start programs by $2 million. It changes income guidelines for the state's senior prescription drug program by pushing out about 1,500 people.
It also introduces a new income-tax break for pensioners and creates sales-tax exemptions for commercial greenhouse and forestry purchases beginning in 2014.
It keeps a Republican promise to restore about $5 million in funding for Maine's largest cities' General Assistance programs. General Assistance is a city program that helps the needy with cash grants for specific purposes, including emergency fuel for heat or temporary rent.
The full Legislature is expected to vote on the budget proposal Tuesday, May 15, when it reconvenes in special session to fix the DHHS budget.
All Democrats on the Appropriations Committee voted against the cuts, which Rep. Peggy Rotundo, D-Lewiston, said were "extreme and irresponsible."
Rotundo, the lead House Democrat on the committee, said the reduction in eligibility for health and welfare programs for both the young and the old would hurt Maine's vulnerable residents.
She said she couldn't accept a proposal that cuts taxes for some while eliminating critical health care services for others.
"The Republicans are making dangerous cuts that will harm seniors, children and people with disabilities while passing more unfunded tax cuts," Rotundo said.
Other Democratic lawmakers on the panel said the state's revenue forecast was on an uptick and suggested that growing revenue projections could offset the need to eliminate state benefits for the populations outlined under the Republican plan.
Democrats said their plan also would pick up the effort to stop fraud, especially by health care providers.
Panel member Rep. John Martin, D-Eagle Lake, said the GOP argument that the measure was about closing an emergency shortfall in the department's budget "lost all credibility" with the proposed tax breaks added.
"We'd all like to have more money in our pockets," Martin said, "but none of us would want to take it from our grandmother's purse or our children's piggy banks."
Sen. Dawn Hill, D-York, said a proposal her caucus was presenting would be about finding savings by running DHHS more efficiently. The Democrats' proposal included depending on revenue forecasts that show the state gaining revenue over the next few years. It also did not end eligibility for any people on state programs.
Democrats say the cuts would affect 24,000 Mainers.
"We took an approach that was about running the department better and delivering services better to those who need them most, and not measuring our success by how many people get thrown off from programs," Hill said, just before the committee voted to approve the Republican proposal and reject the Democrats minority report.
Republicans said they offered a plan that fixed the budget problem in a way that meant ongoing savings in the years to come and in a way that protects the state's most poor and most vulnerable, including children, the elderly and those with disabilities.
Earlier in the day, House Speaker Robert Nutting, R-Oakland, and Senate President Kevin Raye, R-Perry, said continued MaineCare growth in the state's DHHS budget was unsustainable. They said efforts by Democrats to expand the program to include more and more people were jeopardizing it for those who truly needed it.
"MaineCare has grown from 12.4 percent of the state budget in 1998 to 21 percent of the state budget now," Raye said.
While recent state revenue forecasts show the state could receive an additional $49 million from taxes this fiscal year, Republicans were resisting using too much of that money to help plug the gap because, they said, it wouldn't solve the long-term problem of unsustainable growth in the MaineCare program.
"This Legislature will not repeat the mistakes of the past by using a one-time windfall to put a Band-Aid over our broken system, in the hopes that the problem will go away," Nutting said.
The GOP proposal includes about $6.7 million in newly forecast revenue.
Nutting said there were no discussions with Democrats about what the Legislature would do if LePage again used his veto pen on specific provisions in the proposal, as he did in April.
Adrienne Bennett, press secretary for LePage, said that because the Republican proposal provides funding to help pay down the state's debt to hospitals and achieves ongoing savings in DHHS, the governor was encouraged.
"This proposal moves us well toward what has long been part of the governor's goals: for the state to spend wisely and for us to pay our bills," Bennett said.
She said the Republican plan matches LePage's promise to protect services for the state's most vulnerable and does so in a responsible manner.
If the final bill that comes out of the Legislature next week looks like the GOP proposal, it is unlikely the governor will veto any part of it, Bennett said.
She said the governor did not necessarily like the restoration of General Assistance funding for cities, but it was a compromise he could accept.
LePage wants to reform a complicated General Assistance formula that helps Maine's larger cities — which spend the most on General Assistance — more than smaller municipalities. He wants state funding to be even for all but also has said cities must control their spending on local welfare programs.
Bennett said reducing the level of state spending for General Assistance was still a goal for the administration and that she expected it to come up again when the Legislature convenes in January 2013.

I'm rather tired of this prevalent fear-mongering when it comes to creative use of near-worthless coinage. As long as you aren't smelting nickels and pennies for profit, you don't have to worry about being hunted down by the Secret Service. An exception in 31CFR82.2 says that the pertinent reglations "shall not apply to the treatment of these coins for educational, amusement, novelty, jewelry, and similar purposes as long as the volumes treated and the nature of the treatment makes it clear that such treatment is not intended as a means by which to profit solely from the value of the metal content of the coins."

Despite Seattle's reputation of daily rain, Washington is a diverse state with variety of weather. There are mountains, rainforests, crystal lakes and a rich wine country worth exploring. Washington is a cultural hub for artists and musicians. There are always exciting adventures to explore for students of Washington nursing schools.
Nursing Education in Washington
Nursing schools in Washington are plentiful and offer a wide range of programs and scholarship opportunities. Washington nursing schools offer Associate's, Bachelor's and Master's degrees in nursing. Many schools offer Licensed Practical Nursing Programs (LPN) that usually include less of a time commitment. Most Associate's degrees are designed for 2 years, with Bachelor's and Master's taking between 4-6 years.
Nursing schools in Washington offer merit based scholarships that will vary by institution. The Washington State Nurse's Foundation Scholarship is offered to Washington residents planning to work in the state. There are many national scholarships available for nursing students.
Career Outlook for Nursing in Washington
Nursing graduates in Washington were having difficulty finding jobs during the recent economic problems. The long term outlook is an increase in available jobs as the population ages and older nurses continue to retire. Nurses are expected to remain in high demand over a long term projection.
The 2010 version of the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports the national average salary for nurses at $64,690. LPNs earn about $40,000 and CNAs earn around $24,000. The LPN and CNA salaries are a close match for the average salary of those careers in Seattle, WA. Nurses earn an average of $75,000 in Seattle, WA. Salary will vary by location and specialization.
Some of the largest nursing employers include Swedish Medical Center, University of Washington Medical Center and Providence Health Services.

This summer, Libertyville saw the closing of stores such as and , but village officials say more businesses opened or expanded than closed in 2011.
Since the start of 2011, the village of Libertyville has issued approvals for 53 business openings, expansions, or relocations, while 28 businesses have closed, according to an Illinois Department of Revenue report.
"Where we've had some losses, we've actually had more gains," said Heather Rowe, Libertyville's economic development coordinator. "That says a lot about the strength of the community."
Many of the new or expanded entities were retail or personal service businesses, according to Rowe. She also says that many of the people opening new ventures have owned their own businesses before.
"They are a little less risk averse. They have a little bit more background in business and have the financial wherewithal to open their own businesses," she said.
Many businesses that closed were construction supply companies that have seen a slowdown in their industry, as well as some retailers who have seen their markets disappear.
On the list of businesses that closed were such companies as John Deere Landscapes, Dinner by Design, Blockbuster, and Park Avenue Hair Design and Spa, among others.
Filling Up Large Industrial Spaces
Despite these losses, Rowe says that many Libertyville businesses have expanded, including industrial companies like Brightstar, a wireless device company, which has nearly doubled its space by more than 100,000 square-feet, and Fabrication Technologies, a company that manufactures, engineers and assembles fabricated sheet metal products.
"We've filled up a lot of large industrial spaces, so we're hoping there will now be some demand for the open land we have available for industrial companies," she said.
Some new businesses were not reflected in the village's list of new businesses because they are under construction and have not reached occupancy yet, according to Rowe. For example, a former furniture store in the Red Top shopping center is being converted into a sporting goods shop, and an O'Reilly's Auto Parts is under construction near Liberty Auto Plaza on South Milwaukee Avenue.
Downtown Store Expansions
In downtown Libertyville, many stores are seeing growth and expansion, including , which has moved to a larger, newly renovated building on Cook Avenue, is expanding into the adjacent vacated property, and Oh, Olive! will open its second location in Glenview in November.
"Our customer service is a key feature. We take time with our customers and teach them all about our products," said Sandy Schuenemann, co-owner of Oh, Olive! "We have competitive prices and an exceptional, fresh product."
Other new entities include health and wellness companies like and a new location, food service businesses such as and , and retailers like and , which relocated from Hawthorne Mall to Libertyville.

Correction: A previous version of the article incorrectly stated that Agony of De-Feet closed, the business relocated to Mundelein.

text: Despite Tokyo being a modern metropolis and the epicentre of Contemporary Architecture in Japan, there are still pockets of Tokyo where traditional Japanese buildings can be found. These are mostly shops or houses with many accommodating traditional Japanese craft activities such as sembei makers, kimono tailors, shamisen makers to name a few. The juxtaposition of the old adjacent the new creates an incongruity that makes Tokyo one of the most interesting cities in the world for an architect to visit.

Microsoft Office 365 is a service that Microsoft offers to businesses of any size. It allows businesses to run their office automation applications and store their data safely and securely using cloud computing technology. When implemented properly, a business can bring new technology into their organization while decreasing overall IT costs.
What is Microsoft Office 365?
Microsoft Office 365 is a set of productivity and workplace collaboration tools delivered through the cloud. Instead of buying higher-end PCs that can support and run different types of office automation software (eg. Microsoft Office 2010), and larger hard drives to save your data on, an Office 365 subscription allows you to run your programs and store your data safely and securely on Microsoft's servers in the cloud. The biggest advantage is that your employees can access their data and the company's data, through any device that can attach to the Internet. Also you do not need a team of IT professionals to manage servers and support your desktop PCs and software.

- Office Professional Plus
This service includes integration with the other Office Web applications that allow calendaring tools, integration with business and social networks, collaboration tools, presentation tools and data analysis tools.
- Exchange Online

Microsoft Office 365 is designed for just about everyone; From small one person businesses operating out of a home office to small businesses to large international businesses that operate globally. This service is especially enticing for small businesses that can't afford the expense of a dedicated IT staff to support their information needs. Additionally it saves the cost of purchasing expensive office automation software.
How Much Does It Cost?
There are several different pricing plans that allow your business to choose only the services that they require and the flexibility to allow your business to grow. The three basic plans that Microsoft offers are:
- Office 365 for Small Business
Designed for businesses without dedicated IT staff or resources. It cost $6 per user per month that lets you access your email, important documents, contacts, and calendar from virtually anywhere on almost any device.
- Office 365 for Enterprise
Subscriptions start at $10 per month per user for businesses with internal or partner-supported IT staff and resources. Additional plans are available for workers with individual PCs and kiosk workers that share PCs and need only Web-based access.

Safari Books Online is a digital library providing on-demand subscription access to thousands of learning resources.
This appendix describes the system dynamics modeling method for those of you who might be interested in more information than we provided in the chapters describing our models.
System dynamics is a method for modeling and analyzing the holistic behavior of complex problems as they evolve over time. It has been used to gain insight into some of the most challenging strategy questions facing businesses and government for several decades. System dynamics provides particularly useful insight into difficult management situations in which the best efforts to solve a problem actually make the problem worse. Examples of these apparently paradoxical effects include the following [Sterman 2000]:
• Low-nicotine cigarettes, supposedly introduced to the benefit of smokers' health, that only result in people smoking more cigarettes and taking longer, deeper drags to meet their nicotine needs

170 Years of Red Tides off Florida's West Coast
Last updated 09/16/2013 *Suspected continuance of red tide was not confirmed by water sampling
The data stored in the Florida Red Tide Historical Database are different from those found in many other long-term datasets because sampling effort varies from year to year. Not all samples are collected at fixed locations or times. Sampling effort varies with the location, extent and duration of blooms; and changes in availability of the funding that supports harmful algal bloom projects. The figure below illustrates this variation. Spikes in sampling effort correspond with copper sulfate spraying in the 1950s, marine mammal mortalities in the 1990s, and increased funding from federal sources during the last two decades.
Figure illustrating sampling effort through time between 1954 through 2011. Points represent the number of samples collected each year, while the dotted line illustrates trends in sampling effort. The gray shading indicates situations that led to increased water sampling and the dashed line indicates the reestablishment of the FWC's Red Tide Offshore Monitoring Program, for which volunteers collect samples for red tide analysis by FWC staff.
FWC Facts:Fines for damaging seagrasses take into account their economic and environmental importance and the costs of assessing and repairing damage.
