Tower Hill February 2009
Enjoy a virtual tour of Tower Hill's Orangerie!
I liked this because it reminded me of Michelle's large spiky tree from her trip to Florida!
It was very sunny, so it was tough to photo!
Looking out over the systematic garden:
I liked this little series:
If I had been dressed appropriately, they were guiding a tour of the gardens to show the damage from the ice storm. I guess I'll have to wait for warmer weather :)
Here is a link that might be useful: Tower Hill's Gardens
Ooooo la la!!!! Fabu-fabu Saucy! What a treat! I REALLY need to get there, soon. So wonderful to see so many beautifully grown plants this time of the year. Marvleous and thanks so much for sharing these. A treat. I'm going to be coming back to enjoy again and again.
Saucy - what a wonderful tour for a cold grey day. I also enjoyed seeing the two men in your life. I don't think I've seen a photo of DH before? I love their interactions. This also brought back fond memories of IU2 and made me miss those we see little of these days (Babs, Honey etc.)
Saucy, Great pics of Tower Hill. I think my favorite plant is the huge Angelwing Begonia.
I got a chuckle out of the DS and DH. Our GDs love to do that 'rabbit ear' thing to their sisters in pics.
Good to see those two. Was Sarah sick that day?
I look forward to the pics of the gardens. I hope their ice storm damage was not as bad as here.
Kathy, Tower Hill (and I) are 45 minutes from Deanne, and a little over an hour from Chelone - for planning purposes. I'm sure others in the area could chime in with must see garden excursions! Remember, you're always welcome at Terrapin Station :)
Hmm...this might just be Nick's Idyll debut. He and Jake had a good time and encouraged me to try to replicate the orangerie in the sunroom off the back of our house (Sarah and Wayne's is light years beyond mine, but the same idea).
Deanne, I'll treat you to lunch, anytime! I owe you that much :)
A solid 18" of snowplow scrapings precluded my egress this morning. What a shame! so what's an Idyllette to do until it's removed? Tour Tower Hill virtually, that's what!
I am quite taken by the statuary... as ususal. And there is a facetted terra cotta pot containing the "Michelle plant" that caught my eye, as well. I can almost smell the vegetation and feel the humidity (makes me think of Sue inhaling the smell of mulch at the flower show).
The "eye" shot is borderline spooky, Saucy... I really had to look twice at that one. But my favorite is the last in the series as I'm always a sucker for warm family shots. Nick has very expressive eyes. I'll bet it was a lovely tour. Now... when are you going to get some proper footwear and outfit yourself properly for New England winters? ;)

Hey! We're four guys in Greensboro who love making some great music for all to enjoy. Started in 2011 with Alex Kitching, Thommasaht Nhouyvanisvong, and July Mounsamlouath, and the addition of Aiden Strickland, we began to play together. Throughout many band members and band names, Thommasaht and July have played with many different people. Now we're writing our own music with recent members, Connor and Norren. We are a rock band with some turns and experimental sounds, but nonetheless, we love making music for people to enjoy.

Greetings from Poosey.
Dear Graduate,
You may be short of time, short of cash, and running out of sanity this week, but I would wager that you don't lack for advice. Your parents, teachers, and anyone else over 21 has no doubt given you a congratulatory pat on the back then slipped in their two cents on how to be happy, successful, and how to avoid

Discussion in 'Disney Cruise Line Trip Reports' started by MinnieDiva, Feb 1, 2012.
Blush. Why thank you. You know you'll get to see them next summer too, right? LOL!!
Log in or Sign up to hide this advert.
Can't wait!
Ok y'all. Who all is booking for 2014? I love those itineraries....so wish I could do it again next year......
Oh..and I finished Ashleigh's formal dress. I took it to the dry cleaners thinking that it would get off the chalk and make it all nice and pressed under plastic...you know...so that the sparkles on the fabric wouldn't rub off on other stuff. Well, sparkles won't be a problem, plastic or not. Dry cleaning removed the sparkles. All of them. So now Ashleigh has a navy blue dress. No sparkles.
As a former dry cleaner's owner's daughter... ask for reimbursment. They should have TOLD you up front what was going to happen and honestly they probably did the dress wrong if this happened. (We used to clean ball gowns and wedding dresses with "sparkles" you have to be very careful, but if you just toss it in with the other stuff... you see what happens!) Figure out the cost of material, and an estimate for labor and request a CHECK!
Personally I would find a new cleaner. This one strikes me as dangerous.
Thanks for you're experienced opinion. Wish I'd posted it here before taking the dress in.
Sigh. Well, they didn't charge me. But, I do have to claim some culpability in this. I've been sewing for a long time. Almost 30 years. And just like when you purchase clothes and look at the tag to figure out how to care for them, you're supposed to look at the label on the bolt of fabric and take that into consideration as well. So when I was at Jo-Ann's the other day, the first thing i did was go look at the instructions. And it said....blot with a damp towel. Crap. I hate that!
The lady at the cleaners did get an earful, incidentally. Especially when she admitted that she had never done fabric with sparkles like that before. And to add insult to injury, she had even asked if a tag was still on the dress (that's not the insult...that was nice, actually....)...to which I told her "no...I just finished making it...I need the chalk marks here and here to come out". Wouldn't you think that armed with that tidbit you might ask for a scrap to see what would happen?
Fortunately, I rarely use a dry cleaner. Scrubs and jeans are usually wash and dry . And I don't even know if there even is another one in this little town. Lesson learned, I guess.
Here's what it looked like before the sparkles disappeared:
Your public service announcement:
Check your passports! Remember that it is recommended that they be valid for at least 6 months after your planned travel. There are variations to that rule depending on country visited and airline used, but better be safe than sorry! Here's slink to the state department's website:
We went in and re-applied for Ashleigh's on Friday. Don't forget that both parents need to be present to sign. I know there are ways around this in cases of divorce or whatnot, but good gravy I do not want to try and figure out what hoops that involves. Oh....and fill in everything in the same color pen. Black. No blue. In the same bloody handwriting for the whole application.
Last time round we got our passports in 3 weeks. Will be interesting to see what it is this time.
are you gonna try the spray sparkles?
I couldn't find such a thing. They had a fabric spray, and then sparkles that you probably could sprinkle on, but I just don't see that going well.
Anyone know of a product like that?
The dress is lovely! As is your daughter. I'm so sorry the sparkles came off. You are very talented.
Thank you ! Sewing is my therapy...
Beautiful dress.. I love sewing too. I wish I had more time for it.
Thanks and me, too. I got back from WDW on Monday and am trying to catch up with life, the planning on the boards, and a potential new job. No sewing done today .
So I figure most of you out there sailing this summer are starting to really get in the throes of planning. For my cruise, Gold level cruisers got to book on Saturday. It's interesting...so much is sold out already. No Delos (Mykonos) excursions are left at all. No private tours in Athens or Turkey (so I'm told, BTW...I can't get in there until the 16th at 9pm). Which leads me to believe that there must be a ton of Platinum/Concierge on this sailing. So now this dilemma rears it's head: what to do about Delos? Because when you look at the schedule, there are only 3 ferries to the island each day. So....do I want to risk doing it on my own? Find a tour company? I can say with certainty that I would be most anxious to be on that last ferry back to Mykonos and not be on a DCL excursion.
Our group ended up booking private excursions in both Athens ($580 E for 12 people with guide) and Ephesus ($390 USD for 8 people including entrance fees except Terrace Houses and lunch included as well). Not bad, IMHO. And I don't remember if I already said this, but we booked Malta privately as well ($445E for 8 people with guide, no fees or lunch included). So all that is left is Villefranche and Delos. In theory, if we get skunked, both can be done on our own, right?
The one thing that's getting me though about having private excursions is that now I have all those Disney rewards points to apply to my onboard account. What, praytell, am I going to do with them all? Live in the spa? Hmmm.....
You didn't pay for all the tours already, did you? Last time they didn't charge us till we were there.
The only excursions I had to put deposits down on were Barcelona and Malta. $50E each, I believe.
I added the dates to my calendar today to remind me to book/reserve Pisa and the Vatican. Don't want to lose my mind and forget (yeah, right....). Sent out the really cool Mickey tie to my dad that I'd found at WDW....as well as a lanyard with his first pin...Grumpy!! LOL!!
all caught up now subbing.
Awesome trip report and made me think about a few things I've overlooked! Going to look into a post-cruise excursion with that company. Disney refused us to go on their tour even if we didn't use DDs wheelchair. They said we couldn't even take it and leave it with our suitcases
I have swimming kids too! DS2 competes. DD is going to be classified later this year for MultiClass events.
FYI the European. Union just had some law pass that makes them have to make reasonable accommodation for people with mobility issues. Contact your TA if you used one or call DCL and MAKE THEM TAKE NOTE!!!! I'll see if I can find the info for you.
That's exactly why I started this TR. I read so much prior to our 1st cruise that was so thought provoking and helpful I wanted to pass on my thoughts for anyone who wanted my perspective.
Swimming rules! Sitting here now at the pool. Home away from home.....
Ame (and anyone else this may pertain to):
Important Information Regarding European Union Regulations
A new European Union Regulation has been adopted by the European
Parliament and Council to prevent discrimination and offer
assistance to persons with disabilities and persons with reduced
mobility. This applies to cruise departures where the port of
embarkation is situated in a territory of a European Union
For Disney Cruise Line®, this pertains to all cruise
departures from Spain and Italy in 2013 and 2014. If anyone in your
Clients party has a disability or reduced mobility that requires
special assistance, please notify the Disney Cruise Line
Reservation Center at the time of booking.
It is very important that the Travel Agent pass this information
along to Disney Cruise Line to allow us to assess the
Guests needs and address them appropriately.
Separate names with a comma.

A see-worthy trip to Kibby Pond
The old green canoe had a decent-sized gash in the side. If you're guessing I launched it anyway, well, you would be right. I wanted to see this central Adirondack pond from the water. I hoped to look down the pond and see Kettle Mountain. Maybe look up and check out the cliffs on the […] [Read More]

A firey end to a hot night
It was 95 degrees when we got out of the car at Pilot Knob Preserve last Thursday. If you hike enough, it will either be "too cold" or "too hot" to hike to do a trip you've planned. Usually I just shrug, try to be careful and then go out anyway. Our trip was an […] [Read More]
On the trail and off the leash
I wrote an article for the latest edition of Explore magazine about hiking with dogs, on- and off-leash.

Squee! Wildflowers!
We only saw a few wildflowers on our hike to Crane Pond last weekend (painted trillium and a few fringed polygala), so I wasn't expecting that much when we headed out to Blue Ledges this weekend. But we saw a ton of stuff and I was hopping around with the camera. The hike came to […] [Read More]
Yellow warblers, red flowers, black birds and Blue Ledges
The ruckus started suddenly in the cliffs high over our heads. It was loud enough to be audible over the rapids of the Hudson River just downstream. A lone raven swooped down from the rocks of the Blue Ledges but the racket still continued. After some searching we found the culprits — a fuzzy pair […] [Read More]
Crane Pond hike

Lost Florida hikers spend a cold, pretty gross night in the Adirondacks
A good example of yellow journalism from Brian Nearing: NEWCOMB — It's not in any survival manual, but a group of lost hikers in the Adirondacks during a rainy overnight last week tried to fend off the cold by using the only warm water they had — their urine. The only way I could see this […] [Read More]
Up Spuytenduviel Brook without a paddle or a care
Maybe you'd be unimpressed with Spuytenduviel Brook. Maybe you'd see it and say there are a hundred brooks just like it or better in the Adirondacks. Maybe you'd be right. None of that would diminish how much we enjoyed it on Sunday. The Spuytenduviel, which begins just below the summit of Thunderbolt Mountain in the […] [Read More]
Volunteer interpreters in the Catskills
I wrote an article for today's paper on the volunteer interpreter program on the five Catskill mountains with firetowers.

Hey there! My name is Jenn B. Nguyen, and I provide audio for all types of visual media.
Here is one of my personal favorites. I got the opportunity to re-do the sound for a Blender Foundation project, "Elephant's Dream." So I completely scratched all of the audio, and replaced every aspect of it from SFX to dialogue to music scoring.
Check out my videos and you will also be able to find the Part 1 to this which is heavier on SFX and Environmental Design for a much more chaotic scene!

Singapore is a study in what can be achieved with smart planning. In less than half a century, it transformed itself from a low income to a high income country while simultaneously creating one of the most cost effective healthcare systems in the world. The Singapore example offers proof of principle that through long term planning and innovative policymaking it is possible to develop a high quality, affordable healthcare system, even with limited resources. The geographic and economic positions of Singapore allow it to be a resource for low, middle, and high income countries as they embark on health system reforms and plan for rapidly aging populations and the accompanying demand for long term care. ACCESS Health Singapore studies approaches in the country and the resulting innovations in products and services, with the aim of translating these lessons to other country contexts. In addition to sharing our expertise through books – in healthcare delivery, technology innovations and implementation, and planning approaches – we are exploring options to bring the successful ACCESS Health Sweden Modern Aging project to Singapore.
Health FinancingSee all Health Financing
Singapore ranks sixth in the world in health outcomes yet spends less on healthcare than any other high income country, measured both as a fraction of the GDP spent on health and as expenditure per person. ACCESS Health Singapore studies the health financing planning process and approach of the government in order to understand how Singapore pays for high quality healthcare at a cost the economy can afford. We also share this knowledge with other governments looking to design or reform their own health financing strategies.

ACCESS Health Singapore and ACCESS Health Sweden collaborated on a study of the Singapore elderly care system, one of six models used to guide the development of the Swedish elderly care provider payment system.
Elder and Long Term CareSee all Elder and Long Term Care
Singapore has one of the fastest aging populations in the world, resulting from a fertility rate that is well below the replacement rate and a life expectancy that is among the highest in the world. Today, one in seven Singaporeans is over sixty five years old, and that ratio is expected to increase to one in three over the next thirty years. ACCESS Health Singapore documents, analyzes, and shares lessons from the comprehensive, long term planning process of the government to reorient its healthcare system to the needs of the elderly and chronically ill.

The winners in this war are invisible. Those who come to Baghdad nowadays to do business try to remain as incognito as possible. There is fear in the air. American SUVs with darkened windows bring businessmen and commercial agents to only the most essential meetings. In most cases, they are escorted by foreign security personnel.
The American firm Kellogg Brown & Root (KBR) has transformed its headquarters in the Sheraton Hotel on the banks of the Tigris River into a veritable fortress. From the former Presidential Suite, the Americans now enjoy an unobstructed view of the former Saddam Palace across the river, where their compatriot, Paul Bremer, resides as US Administrator.
This proximity to politics is telling. In the reconstruction of Iraq, a vigorous crony capitalism has become established, with politicians and businesspeople taking advantage of it in equal measure. Scruples are seldom voiced about the unseemliness of such close relationships between politics and business. A Washington study recently found that ten major companies that are playing a key role in the reconstruction of Afghanistan and Iraq were also some of the most generous contributors to the Republicans during elections.
Halliburton, the world's largest provider of services to the oil industry, is the prime example of the snug relationship between the White House and corporate America. Vice President Richard Cheney was the chairman of Halliburton, and is still paid a portion of his salary, a payment he extended beyond the term of his employment there, legally but disreputably.
Under Cheney, Halliburton hired Washington insiders and doubled its contributions to political parties to 1.2 million dollars. Today retired General Charles Dominy is the Texas company's chief lobbyist in Washington. During his military career, Dominy was a member of the Army Corps of Engineers, which routinely awards major contracts to Halliburton.
To rebuild Iraq's infrastructure, the Houston-based firm managed to acquire contracts worth two billion dollars. For 1.4 billion dollars, Halliburton's subsidiary KBR is focusing its efforts on repairing the oil fields. Now the Pentagon is investigating allegations that KBR may have overcharged the US occupation forces by 61 million dollars for gasoline imported from Kuwait. "If we overpaid," says Cheney's boss George W. Bush, "we have to get the money back."
In the conquered Middle Eastern state, Halliburton has made sure that it is very well-placed for the biggest prize of all, which is still in the offing - the reconstruction and expansion of the country's oil production infrastructure, a project valued at an estimated five billion dollars. On December 19, a decision is to be reached on the use of the 18.3 billion dollars in reconstruction aid now approved by the US Congress.
Before being appointed Secretary of State under Ronald Reagan, George Schultz was president of construction giant Bechtel. Today he is a member of the company's board of directors. Bechtel was awarded the contract for road construction, for rebuilding the power infrastructure, for water works and sanitary systems. Because of the delays caused by massive attacks in Iraq, the costs of the entire project have increased by 680 million dollars to a total of more than a billion.
Bechtel has also signed a large number of contracts with subcontractors. In theory, the bidding process is open to companies from any country. In fact, however, it is an open secret that America's military allies are being given preferential treatment, entirely in keeping with instructions from Washington.
Such close cooperation between politics and business has always been a tradition among US presidents, but the Republicans under George W. Bush are taking advantage of it openly and shamelessly. Party strategist Charlie Black has made a business of brokering these deals. First he helped Ahmed Chalabi, whom the Pentagon still hopes to install as Iraq's first post-war prime minister. Now he consults to companies that are looking to do business in Iraq, and Black's best recommendations are his contacts at the White House and in the Iraqi Governing Council.
Another good old boy is Joe Allbaugh, who was in charge of the Federal Emergency Management Agency until March. Now he heads his own firm, providing costly advice to American corporations on how to get themselves a share of the business in Iraq. Allbaugh prides himself unashamedly on his friendship with Bush, and asks: "Should I stay out of it because my friend is the President of the United States?"

by Joe B on
Did you enjoy this video?Sign In to Upvote
EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOTY easily. Spector's on shrooms.
Hardly the dark, steampunk game the original concept art suggested. But I guess it still looks pretty good.
nintendo is king
The repetitive Fallout advertisements are getting a little bit over the top now....But sweet game!
This looks stupid and horrible.
I'm usually not that interested in disney games. but this game looks like something I'll buy.
Welp, so much for creepy Oswald.
Wow. Thats all I can say
Looks really cool for a Mickey game!! Can't wait to play it! Does anyone know when it comes out in Japan?
Haha,I sense alot of jealousy from xbox360/ps3 owner in comment section
there is rumbling of an hd port to ps3/360 from the mouths of the epic disney devs already. its coming, so sit tight.
well this would have been great. too bad only on WII, with its "so so" graphics.
Much respect for Mr.Spector,he seems down to earth and I love what he is doing with Mickey and Oswald.You got my full support and $70 for the collectors edition Spector.
Cool I wonder how good the game will be but its suitable for 7 YEAR OLDS? hmm still looks fun makes me wish I had a Wii
got no beef with mickey. not my kinda game, but this may work out for the wii. if my kids were a few years older, I'd go there. looks decent.
Nintendo has earned more of MY respect than sega has, and i'm just gonna leave it at that.
I want this sooooooooooo bad!!!!!!
looks amazing! i have been waiting for this game for over a year!! :)
Can't wait this looks great.
Finally, a good game for the Wii! YEEEEAAAAHHH!! This game looks very impressive and the plot looks pretty damn cool too.
I really hope they decide to port this game to other consoles (PS3 for me) and I think I saw something that looked like a Tron/Space Mountain environment!! Check out 00:54!
I think this is going to be the best game to be released for the Wii yet
Epic game is epic.
@LagomorphOswald OK, thanks!
@fkbwii and Xplode_77 In Europe it's the 25th, in the UK it's the 26th and in the US it's the 30th.

The name of the museum is taken from a French sea captain who bequeathed his estate to his mistress on his deathbed. In 1998, the structure underwent extensive restoration and is now open as a state museum featuring exhibits about architecture, restoration and archaeological finds.

The newly rebuilt Pawtucket River Bridge was re-dedicated Thursday.
The nearly 600-foot span connects Massachusetts and Rhode Island via Interstate 95. The original span, built in 1958, had become so rundown the bridge had to be closed to multi axle trucks.
Truckers who used the bridge risked a three thousand dollar ticket. Governor Lincoln Chafee remembered those truckers in his prepared remarks.
In a ceremonial signing, Care New England and Memorial Hospital will formalize a new partnership Tuesday.
Transgender issues have been the the news quite a bit lately, following the announcement from Bradley Manning, the army private who leaked documents to WikiLeaks, that she is transgender and will now be living as Chelsea Manning.
Rhode Island Public Radio's education reporter Elisabeth Harrison speaks with All Things Considered Host Dave Fallon about a Pawtucket student she profiled, who has been openly transgender for a year now.
Hanna Rini, who is 12, started junior high school this week.
It's back to school season in Rhode Island. There's an ever so subtle hint of fall in the air and schools around the state are opening their doors again for students after the long summer break.
With the first day of school comes that familiar mix of nerves and excitement. Will my friends be the same? What new people will I meet? Will I like my teachers? And perhaps no start of school is quite as nerve-wracking as the first day of junior high.
The fate of the bit bull that bit a Warwick police officer over the weekend will be decided at a vicious dog hearing. Warwick police say an officer was responding to a domestic disturbance call Saturday morning when he was bitten by a pit bull.
The officer was arresting a 19-year-old man outside a home when a woman opened the door and a pit bull ran out and bit the officer twice. The officer fired two rounds, injuring the dog. Police say the officer was treated for two bites on his leg and is recovering. The pit bull remains at an animal hospital.
Woonsocket and Pawtucket are asking the Rhode Island Supreme Court to intervene in their effort to get more funding from the state. The districts filed briefs late last week, arguing they do not receive enough state aid to meet the state's basic education requirements. The districts claim their students are being denied equal access to an education, in violation of their rights under the state constitution.
Rhode Island will mark its annual Victory Day holiday Monday. The holiday marking the US victory over Japan in World War 2 is not without some controversy.
Rhode Island has for years been the only state to still celebrate what was once known as Victory Over Japan Day. Thanks to support from veterans and other defenders, the holiday has survived occasional attempts to rename or eliminate it.
The City of Central Falls plans to repair and pave 16 roads. Mayor James Diossa said the Pawtucket Water Supply Board is ripping up the roads to make repairs to water mains. Instead of just patching the roads back together, the city will completely repave them.
"Pawtucket Water Supply opens up the roads and they were willing to grid the roads and leave it to the point where we just have to cover it with asphalt," said Diossa, "so that's why it's very, very cheap for 16 roads."
The City of Pawtucket said a new state law blocking cities and towns from banning certain breeds of animals does not apply to them. At issue is Pawtucket's longstanding ban against the ownership of pit bulls.
Pawtucket officials said they will continue to enforce a ban on pit bulls despite a new state law that forbids cities and towns from outlawing the ownership of specific breeds of dogs or cats. Pawtucket director of administration Tony Pires said the law applies only to future bans, not ones already on the books like theirs.
A strong PawSox team is ready to take on the Charlotte Knights starting tonight. The PawSox aren't planning on any major changes for the upcoming series tonight.
After being on the road against Louisville, Indianapolis, and the home series against Syracuse, the PawSox have won eight out of their last ten games. The PawSox are having a successful 2013 season. Manager Gary DiSarcina said he doesn't believe in making any drastic changes preparing for Charlotte.

Council member plunges into coma
Sinus ailment places adjunct faculty member in hospital
Shortly after being voted into a second non-consecutive term as a Richmond City Council member in the Nov. 6 election executive and Contra Costa College adjunct faculty professor Gary Bell was hospitalized with a sinus bacterial infection.
After two neurosurgeries Bell was put into a medically induced coma in order to expedite his recovery. As of Tuesday, Bell remains in the coma and the city has been forced to find a replacement.
"My husband's prognosis is good, and we remain optimistic that he will experience a full recovery," Shelley Ross-Bell said regarding her husband's hospitalization in a press release found on Gary Bell's Facebook page, "Friends of Gary Bell."
"With (supporters') continued prayers, we are confident that Gary will be able to address you personally in the future - as you know he would prefer."
Media contact for Bell, Angela Cleo Smith, said Bell's family is not releasing much information and that the latest information is on the Facebook page. As of Monday, she had no additional information.
Although Bell won a seat on the council, his illness prevented him from assuming the position on Nov. 8 - a Richmond city charter requirement.
In his absence, the council is currently searching for a replacement.
"Because he was not sworn in on (Nov. 8) it created a vacancy," Assistant to the Richmond City Council Trina Jackson said. "The city charter (required Bell) to be sworn in by the eighth."
Section 3, Article 10 of the Richmond city charter states that any vacancy in the city council shall be resolved by a majority vote of the remaining members within 60 days of the vacancy. If the seat is not filled by then, a special election is required to fill the space.
On Monday the council held a meeting to approve a candidate. Four of the remaining six council members had to vote for one candidate to assume the seat.
If the council cannot agree on a candidate the seat will be filled through a special election in June.
Last week workers canvassed CCC in hopes of gathering signatures in order to bypass the vote by the council and force a special election.
"We don't want the city council to appoint someone to take his spot," John Laurel said while standing outside of the Library and Learning Resource Center gathering signatures on Jan. 28.
"A lot of people think (whosoever is voted in by the council) could be a far left person - a Republican. We want it to be put to an election, that way anyone would be able to run."
Laurel said 12,000 signatures were needed - but the gatherers fell short of the goal.
Twelve candidates have bid to take Bell's spot including Eduardo Martinez, Mike Ali-Kinney, Eleanor Thompson, Bea Roberson, Jael Myrick and Mark Wassberg - all who ran for Richmond City Council in November.
Thirty-three-year-old Stann Cortez, small-business owner Vinay Pimple, retired steamfitter Don Gosney, former chairwoman of the Richmond Human Rights and Human relations Commission Kathleen Sullivan, former councilmen John Marquez and Tony Thurmond round out the list.
Hired in 2008 as an adjunct faculty member in the business and real estate department, Bell is still currently an instructor at CCC teaching business mathematics and small business management.
"He's well educated and he's always (worked professionally) in finances," business and real estate department Chairperson Joseph DeTorres said. "He's also been involved in politics. That's what attracted (CCC to him) - he had experience in both arenas."
DeTorres said Bell also spent time outside of the classroom to help students. One way he did that was as the co-adviser of the Business Club.

Anybody else have tracking numbers from last week with no movement info?
Lucidity, come back to me. Put all five senses back to where they're meant to be.
for sure!! just checkin'.
Lucidity, come back to me. Put all five senses back to where they're meant to be.
Only worry if it shows it's been delivered and you haven't received it. Otherwise, don't think about it.
3/21/15 - Tweedy @ Theater at Ace Hotel // 3/27/15 - At The Gates (w/Converge, Pallbearer) @ Wiltern // 4/14/15 - Cloud Nothings @ Echo // 4/19/15 - Electric Wizard @ Roxy
// 4/22/15 - Faith No More - Wiltern // 5/15-17/15 - Psycho CA @ Observatory // 5/27/15 - Neutral Milk Hotel @ Warner Grand Theater //6/3/15 - Sufjan Stevens @ Dorothy Chandler
Received my wristband, definitely not Coachella-levels packaging, but that's to be expected. Just a one-page handout w/ some Wristband instructions and transpo. info.
The RFID chip is also chunkier than the Coachella one, but it also feels smoother on the wrist. The design of the FYF wristband also tightens more intuitively on first glance.
Pictures of what somebody posted a page back?
Got my tracking number today. Woohoo.
got my tracking number yesterday and my wristband today. nice unexpected surprise.
Wristbands arriving Saturday!
All these bumps made me re-visit my initial list of bands to see and goddamn, it's going to be a busy weekend:
SAT - Slowdive, Caribou, Slint, Four Tet, Todd Terje, Run the Jewels, BORIS, Angel Olsen, DJ Harvey, Conan Mockasin (and Real Estate, Ty Segall, Man Man, and Mount Kimbie, schedule permitting as I've seen them all before)
SUN - Blood Brothers, FlyLo, Blood Orange, Jamie XX, Built to Spill, Earl Sweatshirt, John Talabot, Daphni, Thundercat, Kelela, Kindness, Daniel Avery, Joanna Gruesome, Jessy Lanza (and Darkside, Mac DeMarco, PotUSA, Deafhaven)
I'm really excited for all the R&B acts this year - I'm sure most are familiar with Blood Orange, but also be sure to check these three out too:
Jessy Lanza (her 2013 album, Pull My Hear Back, was produced by Jeremy Greenspan of Junior Boys)
Kindness (new album this year featuring Dev, Kelela, and Robyn)
I saw Jessy Lanza open for Cut Copy a few months ago and was pretty disappointed. It was a pretty dull set and didn't really do anything for me. I know a lot of people around me felt the same. Her set picked up a little towards the end but not enough for me to want to see her again.
Ty Segall is gonna be so fun..saw his other band FUZZ at Viva Pomona and they totally brought it. I still haven't listened to the new Boris record but I'm super excited for them. Also, the new Joyce Manor album is totally killer, seeing them at Amoeba today and then on Saturday of FYF. the anticipation is at coachella-like levels for me right now.
shit..USPS says my package couldn't be delivered as addressed and was returned to sender. not sure what to do now.

In your tracking email there is a link that says to email them if you need to arrange will call pickup. They won't redeliver so that's your only option.
Still haven't gotten my goddamn tracking email.
God dammit stop posting about getting your tracking #s
Hmm. I've received no tracking information, but a package containing a bedazzler showed up on my porch this morning.
3/30: White Fence, Twerps @ Bottom of the Hill
3/31: Public Service Broadcasting @ DNA Lounge
4/6: Hookworms, Disappears @ The Rickshaw Stop
4/8: Drive Like Jehu @ The Glass House
4/9-12: Coachella
4/17: Swans, Angel Olsen
4/24-26: Stagecoach
Does bedazzling count as "tampering with" your wristband? I am so tempted.
Fucking bogus dude.
All i got was an envelope with my wristband and instructions. They totally did not bedazzle my package.
Lucidity, come back to me. Put all five senses back to where they're meant to be.
Aren't these supposed to come in some sort of box? or am i trippin?
edit: nvm.

Boy's Reaction to Going to Disney World Isn't What You Expect
Surprising a little kid with a trip to the Magic Kingdom should earn you points that'll carry over until he's well into his moody teen years. This kid is an exception.
Surprising a little kid with a trip to the Magic Kingdom should earn you points that'll carry over until he's well into his moody teen years. This kid is an exception.
When it comes to birthday presents, you could say this guy shaved the best for last.
Their bark is worse than their bite. In the most "all talk, no action" example you will ever see, two dogs bark like crazy at each other without seeming to realize they could get physical since the fence separating them ends.
Throw in equal parts heartwarming and inspiration and you have the ingredients for this incredible story.
What's that expression about letting sleeping dogs lie?
On this Independence Day, let's take a moment to show our love for our country. And what better way than by listening to goats belt out the national anthem?
The first day of school can be tough for anyone, so this little boy is doing his best to help an overwhelmed classmate.
If you're going to watch one video of a cute dog chowing down on corn on the cob, make it this one.
The phrase "scaredy cat" may have come from this poor feline.
This little girl may have a future in law enforcement. Four-year-old Abby helped police solve a robbery in her house choreographed by her 17-year-old babysitter.
Every open-mic performer in the country would love an audience like this dog.
Stampedes have been known to destroy enormous swaths of land across the plains. Not this kind of stampede, though. This stampede is a baby-goat stampede, and all it destroys is sadness.
Does it get any cuter than this? Watch these pugs hop up some stairs.
Some are calling him World Pup. We also like Paw-lé.
Does this dog have a split personality? It sure looks like he might.
