$140K Stolen from AR Sports Hall of Fame
By: Marci Manley
Updated: January 4, 2013
But unlike touchdowns and national championships, an employee suspected of embezzling from the organization's funds may be a memory the nonprofit would rather forget.
"The president gave us information that they had been the victim of an employee who had been taking money in some form or fashion," said North Little Rock Police Sgt. Brian Dedrick.
A North Little Rock Police report says a now terminated employee stole $140,000 through personal purchases on the nonprofit's credit card over a six-year period, an average of $20,000 or more a year.
The report goes on to say that President Andrew Meadors believes the employee then used nonprofit funds to pay off the credit card bills.
Sgt. Dedrick said that's a more protracted period of time than they usually see in a case of employee theft.
"Sometimes it doesn't go on this long because normally there's security measures in place where someone notices it," he said. "In this case, I don't know what the details are or why it went on so long."
When KARK contacted ASHOF Executive Director Ray Tucker, he referred us to President Andrew Meadors. Meadors, in turn, would not comment on the record and referred us to the organization's attorney Mike Moore.
Moore, also wouldn't comment other than to say they were going to leave the situation up to law enforcement and allow them to complete their investigation.
The missing funds, discovered at a less-than-perfect time for the organization, which has been raising funds to build a conference center near its museum at Verizon Arena.
Since 2011, a one million dollar federal grant was awarded by the Economic Development Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce for construction.
Act 528 in the Arkansas General Assembly regular session of 2011 also awarded 700,000 to ASHOF for the conference center.
In the past six months, the city of North Little Rock set aside $100,000 for the organization as well, according to the finance department.
Moore wouldn't comment on the investigation into the missing funds, but he did say he believed taxpayer funds were kept in a separate account that were not affected by the embezzlement reported to police.
When KARK asked for a copy of the internal audit conducted into ASHOF's finances, Moore said the organization had taken the stance that as a private non-profit, it was exempt from Freedom of Information Act requirements, despite the large amounts of public funds it had been awarded.
Our request, subsequently, was denied.
When asked the about the possibility of public funds being part of the stolen funds, Sgt. Dedrick could not say for sure.
"We're not deep enough into it yet to know exactly where those monies came from," he said. "It's unfortunate that it happened. It's unfortunate that it went on for so long. But at least we are aware of it now and investigating."
KARK did attempt to contact the former employee President Meadors told police was believed to have stolen the funds.
Our phone calls to that former employee went unreturned.

The combination of Shimano's Ultegra Di2 gruppo with BMC's Race Machine RM01 results in a performance bicycle that can dominate the local crit circuit or catapult you to the KOM on your next gran fondo. While the Team Machine represents the pinnacle of BMC's offerings, the BMC Race Machine RM01/Shimano Ultegra Di2 Complete offers the greatest performance return per investment dollar.
Designed for racing, the RM01 puts you in a powerful and efficient aerodynamic position. This also means it has a carefully designed carbon layup that ensures low weight, strength, and stiffness where you want it. A mix of high-modulus and high-tensile material perfectly balance strength, durability, and weight. High-modulus is strong and stiff, but relatively brittle. So BMC mixes in lower modulus, high-tensile fiber to add durability. Together, it creates a bike frame that possesses all the right characteristics.
As stability is paramount to BMC, they use a tapered 1-1/8in to 1-1/4in steerer tube. This lends stiffness for stability through high-speed turns and on rough pavement, but it's still comfortable because of BMC's Tuned Compliance Concept (TCC). BMC engineers created zones in the fork legs where the material and shapes are selected to provide a degree of compliance, while maintaining the torsional and lateral stiffness you need for uncompromising performance and precise steering. The RM01 seatpost also features their Tuned Compliance Concept. In other words, the Race Machine is easy on your body in the bumps, but still extremely stiff when cranking out the watts .
One feature you can't miss on the RM01 is the Integrated Skeleton Concept (ISC) at the seat tube junction. While some might see it as an aesthetic flair, the truth is there's a strong practical reason for it. Advanced computer analysis allows BMC to fine tune both the shapes and the layup to maximize stiffness while minimizing weight. Continuing this fixation with optimization, all the cables are run externally, which is lighter and provides better function than most efforts at internal routing.
We've assembled our RM01 here as a race-ready package with a complete Shimano Ultegra Di2 group. The STI levers, derailleurs, brakes, and crankset are all there. The rest of the build kit is comprised of parts we'd ride on our race bikes. You'll get an Easton EC90 SLX3 Handlebar and EA70 Stem, and the BMC RM01 Racepost TCC Seatpost with a Fizik Antrares 2 perched on top. The Mavic Ksyrium Elite wheels shod in Continental Ultra Race tires are ready for anything.
The BMC Race Machine RM01/Shimano Ultegra Di2 Complete Bike is available in White. It comes in six sizes from 47 - 60cm. The Race Machine passes the strictest CEN testing for frame fatigue. It has no weight limit and comes with a three year manufacturer's warranty.

The investigation continues into a murder-suicide in the Newburg area.
Louisville Metro Police said 46-year-old Robert Levine shot his girlfriend then turned the gun on himself.
The shooting happened in the 5000 block of Roederer Drive off Poplar Level Road about 9 p.m. Wednesday.
Levine's girlfriend, 45-year-old Amy Vick, was originally expected to survive, but WLKY learned Thursday evening that she died from her injuries.
Vick died during surgery about 1:30 p.m. Thursday.
She had just moved in with Levine a few months ago along with her son and daughter who police said were home at the time of shooting.
Now, detectives are trying to figure out what led to the violence.
"I was watching the game and I hear these shots and I thought he, there's a cat that runs around here a lot, so I thought he'd probably shot the cat," said next-door neighbor James Fugget Sr. "It was the little girl, the girl who'd come out and said it was her mother that had been shot."
According to police, last night was their first trip to the home for the woman's children.
Neighbors said the couple was quiet and kept to themselves.

Watts Funky
LP (Item 52279) BGP (UK), Late 60s/1970s — Condition: New Copy
Some of the greatest funky work you could ever hope to find by Johnny Otis! The package brings together tracks recorded by Johnny in his fantastic post-R&B years – the late 60s and 1970s, when he was scrappling around a variety of small labels, but also getting the chance to use that freedom to cut some incredibly great work! The spirit of the CD retains all the great feel of Johnny's funky live show – as it runs through a variety of different artists, from hip instrumentalists to sock-soul divas to Johnny himself, who's still sounding pretty darn funky at the time! There's some killer material here that makes the package an instant "must-have" for fans of heavy heavy funk – and titles include "Watts Breakaway" by Johnny Otis, "Country Girl" by The Johnny Otis Show, "But I Ain't No More (GSTSKDTS)" by Vera Hamilton, "Spells & Incantations" by Debbie Lyndsey, "Cool Ade" by Preston Love, "Funky Disco Boogie" by Demar & Carla, "I Don't Understand It" by Ice Water Slim & The Fourth Floor, "If You'd Be Mine" by Shuggie Otis, "Comin At Ya Baby" by Johnny Otis, "Jaws" by Johnny Otis, "Hey Boy! I Want You" by Barbara Morrison with the Johnny Otis Show, "You Got To Do It Right" by Willie Jitterbug Webb, and the killer "The Humpty Dump" by The Vibrettes! Also features the previously unreleased "Miss Pretty" by Shuggie Otis! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Steps to Creating a Counterfeit-Free Supply ChainThe problem of counterfeit components has been recognized within the electronics industry for many years, and has always been of utmost concern. A recent customer survey by Cyclops Electronics revealed that the possibility of counterfeits entering the supply chain remains a major cause for concern in manufacturing. This is a completely justifiable fear, since the number of reported incidents involving counterfeit electronics has increased dramatically. According to the ERAI, the number of reported incidents involving counterfeits has increased by over 40 percent during the last three years. There are further concerns that these figures do not truly reflect the scale of the problem, due to the fact that many incidents of counterfeiting go unreported. Buyers worried about their reputation may not report incidents, opting instead to send the parts back to the supplier for a full refund. This is counterproductive to the industry as a whole, as those fake parts will probably end up being sold again to someone else. According to the ERAI, counterfeiting is estimated to cost the semi-conductor industry around $7.5 billion in revenue each year. What are the root causes of counterfeiting, and why has it become such a widespread problem over the past few years? Quite simply, it's profitable. If a demand can be identified, and the counterfeiters have the ability to meet it with lookalikes -- sometimes the same part with lower specifications, a previous revision, or even just the same shape -- and if they can get it into the supply chain, then there is a chance that someone will take the stock off their hands. Rory King, Director of global product marketing at IHS Inc. stated in the document identified above:
Many OEMs are sitting there with entire bills of material with literally thousands of parts which they had no idea were subject to unforeseen EOL or other supply chain disruptions. This problem is caused by the increase in demand for obsolete parts, and is made worse by the fact that an increasing number of electronic component manufacturers are now outsourcing their production operations overseas. This means that modern manufacturing equipment, processes, and skills are more readily available to the counterfeiters, allowing them to route into the supply chain. The counterfeiters seem to learn at an incredible rate, so anyone with static counterfeit policies might find that it's just a matter of time. With the intention of allaying many of the fears that our customers have expressed to us, Cyclops Electronics set about creating a useful guide that buyers of components can refer to in order to help avoid counterfeits. It's also helpful in identifying fakes if customers ever receive them. The guide is entitled, "8 Step Guide To Buying Electronic Components With Confidence and Avoiding Counterfeits." We will cover these steps in detail in a forthcoming blog. |

Counterfeiting is proliferating because it is profitable, but there are steps manufacturers can take to avoid the problem. Here are some.

A key concept in Jungian psychology can help attorneys survive life in a firm and avoid disastrous self-sabotage (see, for example, Gen. David Petraeus). It's the concept of the shadow. The shadow is the bearer of instinct and negative emotion: rage, lust, envy and grief.

Saeco Vienna Plus in Silver
I just took out & cleaned the brew group on my saeco vienna plus for the first time, and i noticed on the bottom of it and a little on the lower sides there was a fair amount of sticky gel, is that somehow from the coffee or is that just like a gel that is put in from the maker to help with lubrication or something. should i try cleaning it all off? or just leave it because it helps the machine work right. thanks!!

IMHO, that's a logic disconnect.-I'm very pro-life
-I'm not particularly pro-homosexual marriage
-I'm pro-capital punishment, for the most part
-I'm VERY for a strong military
-I'm pro-the right to carry weapons
-I'm for prayer in schools
You know, this reminds me of an interesting class I took on the History of the Old South. . .where our professor kept assuring us that the Civil War was truly about states' rights. She was adamant that the issue of slavery should have been taken up on a state-to-state level and that was the reason for most Southern state's beef with the federal government.Originally posted by Shapley:
It only prohibits Congress from interfering with or establishing religion. Congress does not pass State laws. by my reading, if Utah wanted to declare itself a Mormon state, it has the authority to do so, although I'm sure the Supreme Court would disagree, since they don't seem to read the same Constitution as I do.
In any case, marriage, and it's definition, would be a state issue, even though it is actually a church issue. Tax and Probate laws made it necessary for the state to define marriage. The gay issue only becomes an issue because of the Constitutional requirement that each state give "full faith and credit" to the laws of other states. In other words, a marriage in one state is valid in all others, unless the laws of one or more of the other states specifically prohibit it. Missouri, and other states as well, have acted to prohibit gay marriage, which is within their authority. In my view, it is out of the jurisdiction of the Federal government.
Not that that doesn't keep them from talking about it. Clinton talked about curfews, and Al Gore talked about traffic congestion, both issues that should be below the radar of the Federal government. No wonder government keeps getting bigger.
goodness, I hope not. Not the way it was intended at all whatsoever.I try to value the opinions of everyone else as well as my own. . .and I like that the bbb.com doesn't usually consist if chatters who take pot-shots at each other. (I'm not saying that you did. . .just commenting that I like this fact)
You've got those two backward. President Bush opposed the ban, and was in favor of Congress' allowing the ban to expire, which it did.
On Thursday, Sen. Bill Frist, R-Tenn., announced that Senate Republicans would not send a bill to President Bush renewing the assault ban. The Republicans control the Senate, and Frist is the majority leader.
Bush has said he would sign the assault weapons bill if the Senate sent it to him, but he has declined to lobby for its passage. He promised to re-sign the law while running for president in 2000.
"The president supports the reauthorization of the current law," White House spokesman Scott McClellan said, but "the president doesn't set the Congressional timetable. Congress sets the timetable."
National police organizations such as the International Association of Chiefs of Police, the International Brotherhood of Police Officers and the Fraternal Order of Police all support the renewal of the ban. President Bush has said he would sign such a bill if Congress passed it.
There are only a few days until the assault weapons ban expires on September 13, and our nation will face a new era of criminal and terrorist attacks with assault weapons unless President Bush keeps his campaign promise and gets the law renewed. During his campaign in 2000, President Bush pledged to renew this law.
The New York Times
Irking N.R.A., Bush Supports the Ban on Assault Weapons
By Eric Lichtblau
May 8, 2003
President Bush and the National Rifle Association, long regarded as staunch allies, find themselves unlikely adversaries over one of the most significant pieces of gun-control legislation in the last decade, a ban on semiautomatic assault weapons.
Not sure why you directed that at me since it was not my post or opinion. FYI, I believe that was Saxy.RC,
RE: I'm very pro-life ...
-I'm pro-capital punishment, for the most part
I take it that means you're pro-innocent-life?
This particular vote ticked me off:John Kerry is a gun owner and hunter, and he believes that law-abiding American adults have the right to own guns. But like all of our rights, gun rights come with responsibilities, and those rights allow for reasonable restrictions to keep guns out of the wrong hands. John Kerry strongly supports all of the federal gun laws on the books, and he would take steps to ensure that they are vigorously enforced, cracking down hard on the gun runners, corrupt dealers, straw buyers, and thieves that are putting guns into the hands of criminals in the first place. He will also close the gun show loophole, which is allowing criminals to get access to guns at gun shows without background checks, fix the background check system, which is in a serious state of disrepair, and require that all handguns be sold with a child safety lock.
Source: Campaign website, JohnKerry.com, "Issues" Mar 21, 2004
I'm not necessarily a Kerry advocate. I think you've assumed that I am.Voted NO on banning lawsuits against gun manufacturers for gun violence.
Vote to pass a bill that would block certain civil lawsuits against manufacturers, distributors, dealers and importers of firearms and ammunition, mainly those lawsuits aimed at making them liable for gun violence. In this bill, trade groups would also be protected The bill would call for the dismissal of pending lawsuits against the gun industry. The exception would be lawsuits regarding a defect in a weapon or ammunition. It also would provide a 10-year reauthorization of the assault weapons ban which is set to expire in September 2004. The bill would increase the penalties for gun-related violent or drug trafficking crimes which have not resulted in death, to a minimum of 15 years imprisonment. The bill calls for criminal background checks on all firearm transactions at gun shows where at least 75 guns are sold. Exemptions would be made available for dealers selling guns from their homes as well as members-only gun swaps and meets carried out by nonprofit hunting clubs.

"Great product for beginning climbers!" 10/02/12
I've only been climbing for a few weeks but I'm really excited about it. I read everywhere that you should buy your first shoe for comfort because you're not going to be good enough to utilize the super expensive/uncomfortable climbing shoes anyway. Well this shoe feels great and I've been able to grip the footholds really well. Seems like a great shoe for the price.
"Stretchy but super comfortable" 09/18/12
These are probably the most comfortable climbing shoes I've ever worn. They are so comfy that I don't usually even take them off between routes which is actually a bad thing because this causes them to stretch immensely. These shoes are so stretchy that after a couple hours at the gym they become a little annoying because they lose all aggressiveness. Buy them a size smaller than you think you'll need.
"shoe of the climb" 05/08/12
nice shoe but i make sure they are the right size... kind of new at climbing been trying more then one size to see what i like... the best thing u can do is go to REI and wear them for about 20 to 30mins to find out how they will feel for long period of time
"Most comfortable climbing shoe ever!" 04/13/12
I've been climbing since the first grade and I've always used gym shoes for my occasional bouldering and top-roping needs. Having a pair of climbing shoes that feel good on your feet after six hours of bouldering is just about impossible, unless you have some Nagos. I know that professionals love their hoof-feet but for the normal ones that want to climb and not feel tortured these are the shoes for you! some of my more serious climbing buddies STILL bring their Nagos to the wall just so they can change into them when their feet hurt too much. Just beware, they turn your feet red.
"Withstands the abuse" 07/18/11
I have been using these shoes for six months, on average three times a week, and they are still in good condition. They are good for indoor and outdoor use. They will turn your feet or socks red, but that is the only problem (if you even consider that a problem).
"Perfect!" 07/15/11
These are my 2nd pair of climbing shoes, and I love them. I've used them in the gym and at my local crag, and they've performed perfectly. The laces make adjusting the fit easier, even if it takes a little longer. Also, whenever I get them dirty, I wipe the soles with a wet paper towel- this cleans them, and helps them last longer.
"Great first shoe" 07/05/11
I bought this shoe right when I started to climb. They are unbelievably comfortable (granted they have stretched a bit since my first few climbs). The key feature that led me to these shoes was the laces (which wasn't present with entry level shoes from other brands). While many may use these for trad climbing, I use them for sport climbing and they work great. I will likely get a different la sportiva shoe as I work into more technical routes but for me now (I climb routes mostly under 5.11) these shoes work great.
"A decent first pair, make sure you get them properly fitted." 06/10/11
They are a decent first pair that have a really nice build quality. The problem is that they stretch a lot, mine stretch 1.0-1.5 european sizes. These are also a really unaggressive design, no significant downturn but really comfortable. That being said, they were a nice first pair but nothing special. When you get them fitted or are trying them on, make sure you fit them tight. It's real leather so it will stretch more than synthetic material.
"Good for the price." 06/03/11
A good beginner's shoe if they fit your feet well. They do stretch a lot. I got mine 1.5 sizes smaller than my street shoe, and they stretched so much that any larger would be too big.Will beginners be edging on dimes? No. That's not necessary on the vast majority of climbs up to 5.10. Nagos have decent grip and WAY more structure and edging ability than, say a 5.10 Coyote - another entry-level shoe.If you're the kind of beginner that needs to feel important by buying gear made for advanced practitioners, by all means skip these and go right to Miuras or Katanas. Otherwise you'll fare just fine with the Nagos.

Video: As MMA industry sputters, UFC 153's Jon Fitch and others find financial struggles
by Dann Stupp on Oct 09, 2012 at 2:00 pm ET
Slowed by injuries, he's competed just twice in the past 20 months, and he didn't get his win bonus in either.
But he's not just losing money there. As MMA's TV ratings decline, attendance and gate figures slide, and major events get canceled, Fitch said it's becoming harder for fighters to make money outside the cage.
"The economy itself is slow," Fitch told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio). "It's a lot harder to make money outside the UFC now, as far as sponsors and stuff go. The sponsors have kinda dried up. The appearances have almost dried up."
Personal appearances, training seminars and various hosting duties used to be a surefire way for big-name fighters to pad their wallets. But with the economy still in the tank and MMA perhaps reaching a saturation point this year, the opportunities aren't there. And fighters such as Fitch don't want to start slashing costs.
"You don't want to start doing appearances for like $500, and then everyone hears that, and they never offer you anything higher than that even if the economy comes back," he said.
For now, Fitch (23-4-1 MMA, 13-2-1 UFC) is focused on Saturday's UFC 153 fight with fellow welterweight Erick Silva (14-2 MMA, 2-1 UFC), which is part of the pay-per-view main card from HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro. It's Fitch's first appearance since a February 2011 draw with B.J. Penn and a subsequent knockout loss to Johny Hendricks this past December. Before the winless appearances, Fitch was on a 21-1 run, and the lone defeat came in a title fight with champ Georges St-Pierre.
Fitch, the captain of the famed American Kickboxing Academy team in California, was married a few years ago and now has a kid. But living in California isn't cheap, especially with a young family.
Fitch said he's "very careful with my money," but he also has the strain of two mortgages. He bought a condo before the real-estate market got real bad, and the property is steadily losing value, and he also bought a larger house for his family after he got married.
In fact, he said it's a big reason he hasn't traveled down to Fresno to train with friend and former AKA teammate Josh Koscheck. When Koscheck split from the camp, it admittedly put a small strain on their friendship (one the recent "Fight Factory" TV series focused on).
Fitch had still hoped to train with his friend, but right now, he said it's just not feasible. Not for this camp, anyway.
"It's just not economical for me right now," he said. "I just don't have the money or the time to travel down there. I have a son now. It's too hard for me to travel down there and stay and train. It's been limited contact. The last time I got to work with [Koscheck] was the one time they filmed on the show."
So back to full health, the former Purdue University wrestler hopes to fight more frequently. He sometimes wonders why it's such a struggle even when fighters are healthy.
"I would love for us to be able to fight three times a year," he said. "I think that's more than realistic. ... But we're pretty lucky to get three in a year. If you get three, that's ideal. But when you get one or two, it can be difficult. If I still lived in Indiana, it wouldn't be such as much an issue, but I live in California, and it's expensive. Even the cost of food at the store is more expensive."
And as he mentioned earlier, outside-the-cage opportunities aren't just as lucrative as they were during the initial MMA boon of four or five years ago, and sponsors are stingier with their money.
So right now, there's really just one way to make money.
"If you're not fighting, you're not getting paid," he said. "It's not a comment in any way to pay scales or anything. It's just a simple fact: If you don't fight, you don't get paid."

The images, shot by photographers from the Las Vegas News Bureau, capture the city's core as it appeared long before Las Vegas Boulevard — then known as Los Angeles Highway — was developed into a world-famous resort corridor.
Many of the photos feature Fremont Street and various long-departed businesses — from the Boulder Club ("Bets from a dime up") to Fremont Drug. Some still-open hotel-casinos, such as El Cortez and the Golden Nugget, can also be seen.
The News Bureau, now an arm of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, has been providing media worldwide with publicity photos and films since 1947. Its staff has documented events as varied as atomic-bomb tests and the arrival of the Beatles.
The "Fabulous Downtown" display is included in the price of admission: $19.95 for adults and $13.95 for children 5 to 17. The Mob Museum is at 300 E. Stewart in the historic building that once housed the city's post office and federal court. It is is open 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays, and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.

The Great Japan Beer Festival 2013, organized by Great Japan Beer Festival 2013 Tokyo, started in 1998. It is currently held at 5 different venues on 5 different dates in Japan (see below), offering the public an alternative to mainstream beers from huge breweries. There will be over 120 different craft beers for you to sample at each festival location, some of which you may not be able to find anywhere else! Some international beers will also be available. Each pour is only a bit over 1 ½ fluid ounce, so you can enjoy yourself and sip away without fear of losing your equilibrium···for a while, anyway.
All the beer you can swallow is yours for the price of admission (separate for each venue). Tickets tend to sell out quickly, so buying in advance might be a good idea! Tickets are available at convenience stores in Japan such as Family Mart, 7-Eleven, Lawson, etc.
So raise your glass and show your appreciation for the small and medium-sized breweries that are producing exciting and distinctive new tastes. Educating your taste buds has never been such fun. Kampai!

Summer is the season for festivals throughout Japan. Many have a history that reaches back hundreds of years. Big festivals, small festivals, with a few exceptions, most are exuberant, loud and rollicking affairs! You'll enjoy seeing lots of people dressed in summer kimono called yukata, the best way to keep cool in the summer heat. There are also usually many food and craft stalls where you can purchase local goodies. Being an observer (or participant, if allowed!) at festivals is the perfect way to interact with the locals. No doubt you will be whole-heartedly welcomed, and in the relaxed atmosphere you'll discover that this is probably the quickest and easiest way to make friends and learn a bit about local culture!
Amid the plethora of fun summer festivals, here are a few well-known ones you won't want to miss!
The Sumida River Fireworks, Tokyo, last Saturday of July View fireworks from alongside the Sumida River, and join in the raucous shouting every time one is lit! This extravagant pyrotechnic display equals summer in Tokyo for many folks. |
Gion Matsuri Festival, Kyoto, parade on July 17th This festival is a month-long affair, with the hilight being the massive parade complete with floats on the 17th, and the preceding three nights full of festivities. |
Tenjin Matsuri Festival, Osaka, July 24th - 25th. This is a thoroughly Osaka flavored event, right down to the style of handclapping and shouts! Festivities take place both on land, with a parade with portable shrines, and on water, with a torch-lit boat procession, complete with fireworks! |
Hakata Gion Yamakasa Festival, Fukuoka, July 1st - 15th. Famous for its spectacular float racing, this exuberant festival has been designated an Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property. |
So put on your yukata, and join in the fun!

One of the major summer festivals in Japan is the Tanabata Festival or the Star Festival. This festival originated from the sad, sweet tale that stems from Chinese folklore about two stars, Vega and Altair, also known as the weaver girl, Orihime, who was the daughter of the Emperor of the Galaxy, and the cowherder, Hikoboshi, who fell in love but neglected their respected duties of weaving cloth and cowherding, thus drawing the wrath of the Emperor of the Galaxy upon them. Separated by the Milky Way, or Amanogawa, and forbidden to see her lover, the weaver girl wept, and the tears moved her father to allow the lovers to meet once a year, on the seventh day of the seventh month, but only if it doesn't rain.
In Japan festivities take place usually in early July or August, as August 7th is around the 7th day of the 7th month in the lunar calendar. These festivals, call matsuri, are exceedingly popular with locals and tourists. There are always plenty of food and beverage stalls available with music and lots of entertainment which varies locally from spot to spot. Many local vendors put up elaborate decorations that try to outdoor the decorations of their neighbors.
Common elements in the Tanabata festivals include the display of a large, or several large poles of bamboo, with many small branches called sasatake. This is sometimes called a "wish tree," and people write wishes on colored strips of paper and tie them to the branches in hopes they will come true. Other colorful paper decorations are hung representing things like long life, good health, success in business, in one's studies or skills, and so on.
Some of the major festivals include:
Sendai Tanabata Matsuri, Miyagi Prefecture (Aug 6th - 8th) |
Yamaguchi Tanabata Lantern Festival, Yamaguchi Prefecture (Aug 6th - 7th) |
Kyo no Tanabata, Kyoto (Horikawa River site and Kamogawa River site) (Aug 3rd - 12th) |
Shonan Hiratsuka Tanabata Matsuri, Kanagawa Prefecture (July 5th - 7th) |
While all of Japan's summer festivals are unique and fun, we are going to focus on a few of the ones that feature dancing! It's so easy to get into the spirit - before you know it, you'll be boppin' to the beat along with everyone.
Generally, each of the festivals includes dancing teams made up of local townspeople and sometimes troupes from all over Japan. These groups spend long hours rigorously training, learning intricate hand, foot and body movements. Beautiful costumes based on traditional design and newer ones that have been influenced by modern fashions can be seen. Traditional music as well as modern keeps the tempo. Most events take place in the evening, but some venues have events from noon into night! There are always wonderful decorations, local tasty goodies to sample, and lots of friendly people available to teach you the dance steps!
Here are some dance festivals that you won't want to miss this summer!
This dance dates back to the late 16th century. Awa is the former name of Tokushima prefecture, and odori means the noun "dance." The unusual dance steps are supposed to represent the tipsy gait of the townspeople as they celebrated the newly built Tokushima castle, while enjoying a generous gift of sake from their feudal lord.
While not as old as the Awa Odori, having begun in 1964, this odori attracts over one million visitors annually! The hanagasa, straw hats festooned with artificial safflowers which are the flower of the prefecture, are worn by groups of dancers - about 10,000 dancers in more than 100 dance groups - and the dance is led off by elaborate floats.
Some say this festival was started in friendly rivalry with neighboring Tokushima's Awa Odori. It is considerable younger, though, and a younger vibe can be felt in its traditional dances and music, some of which is set to modern arrangements. There are many dancing teams from other parts of Japan that show off their moves along with the locals.
The Tetsuya Odori, or All Night Long Dance Festival, refers to the climax about midway through the Gujo Odori, which runs mid-July through early September. People dance continuously from 8pm to about 5am the next morning for 4 days! The Gujo Odori as a whole is slightly different than other dance festivals; there are no special costumes, and tourists are welcome to participate from the very start! The festival takes place in different areas throughout the whole town. The Gujo Odori began 400 years ago, with the hope of encouraging all the townsfolk to come together and dance regardless of social position. It has been designated a Significant Intangible Cultural Folk Asset of Japan.
Warmer months mean Japan Festivals! May and June bring us two great festivals, one in Boston and one in Chicago.
The Japan Festival Boston will be held on Sunday, May 19th, from 10:00am - 6:00pm at the Boston City Hall Plaza. Admission is free, and public access is available.
The Japan Festival Chicago is celebrating its 30th annual festival! It will be held on Saturday, June 8th from 10:00am - 6:00pm and Sunday, June 9th, from 10:00am - 5:00pm at the Elk Grove High School in Elk Grove Village. Admission is free.
Both festivals will feature all sorts of exhibits, many kinds of Japanese food, demonstrations and performances such as martial arts and musical entertainment. These festivals are wonderful ways to introduce Japanese culture to local communities and bring both cultures closer together.

I've been keeping a list of things to blog about, but I've been taking my sweet time and most of the things no longer warrant their own post. So here's a collection of blurbs about things I meant to post about last month:
- Dix is closed. I wrote about how Dix was going to close, but now it actually is closed. I will miss Caskival and pre-sporting event eating and drinking. It still bothers me that I still can't comprehend why MJG would do this to me.
- Big Ridge is reopening. Big Ridge moved across the street to a new location because of parking disputes with the YMCA (really YMCA?). My former local brewpub closed down last winter and is now opening in their new location with a revamped beer menu (an IPA replaces the Clover ale). I can't wait to check it out when I get back.
- BC Beer Awards Awarded. The first annual BC Beer Awards were doled out during VCBW (a rousing success from what I've heard). The winners were selected via a blind tasting panel at the Alibi Room. I can't say they are who I would have picked, but then I'm biased by things like seeing. Canadian Beer News has the list of winners here.
- Dead Frog Pepper Lime Lager. Dead Frog is from small town Langley, where I grew up, and so I've long been fond of them. My pride has been replaced with disappointment with Dead Frog's launch of their bandwagon Pepper Lime Lager. I haven't tasted it yet, but I can't imagine it's any good, although BC Beer gives it a decent review. It is my opinion that lime and beer should only be involved when dropping a fresh wedge of lime into a bad beer like Corona. All other marriages are abominations.
- Phillips is rad. Phillips is brewing CAMRA BC homebrew competition winner Gary Giesbrecht's Oatmeal Stout and including it in their Showcase mix pack. How's that for audience participation?
- Berlin. I'm going to Berlin tomorrow morning to meet Erik and drink German beer, woooo!

Fresenius Medical Care North America has appointed a new medical director of the Fresenius Medical Care Laurinburg and Fresenius Medical Care Scotland County facilities.
Dr. Muhammed J. Iqbal earned his medical degree from King Edward Medical University in Lahore, Pakistan. He is a board certified kidney specialist, also called a nephrologist, with Scotland Memorial Hospital in Laurinburg. He also serves as a member of the American Society of Nephrology and the Renal Physician Association
Mike Nelms, regional vice president for Fresenius Medical Care, said that the medical care facility is happy to be working with Iqbal. "He contributes a tremendous amount of medical expertise, and will help to ensure that patients enjoy all the benefits of UltraCare, our name for excellent, patient-centered care and customer service."
"The Laurinburg and Scotland County teams do an excellent job of providing Fresenius Medical Care patients with the highest quality of dialysis care and support," Iqbal said.
"I look forward to working with these talented individuals to bring the latest dialysis technology and treatments to our community," he said.
Iqbal's duties will include providing guidance to the clinical staff to deliver high-quality patient care as well as ensuring the facilities meet all federal and state regulatory requirements.
Fresenius Medical Care North America is a major provider of kidney dialysis services and renal care products. The facility provide products, dialysis care services, education and support for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), including treatment options for later stage CKD.
According to the Centers for Disease Control's Chronic Kidney Disease Initiative from October 2012, more than 20 million U.S. adults were estimated to have CKD and most are undiagnosed.
Kidneys that can't filter waste and extra fluid build up in your blood can cause diabetes and high blood pressure according to the Fresenius Medical Care website. The kidneys can also lose the ability to produce hormones that assist in making red blood cells, controlling blood pressure, and maintaining healthy bones.
Other problems associated with kidney disease are inflammation of the kidney nephrons, and diseases that are inherited like polycystic kidney disease and some birth defects, autoimmune diseases like lupus, malformed kidneys, kidney stones, and repeated urinary tract infections.
Dialysis is a life-sustaining process that cleans waste products from the blood and removes extra fluids when a person's kidneys fail. Dialysis patients typically require treatment on an ongoing basis unless they receive a kidney transplant.
Both Fresenius Medical Care Laurinburg and Fresenius Medical Care Scotland County are accepting new patients.
Fresenius Medical Care-Scotland County is located at 1061 Aberdeen Road, Laurinburg. The phone number is 910-277-3592.
Fresenius Medical Care-Laurinburg is located at 701 Lauchwood Dr., Laurinburg. The phone number is 910-276-6669.

The Southern Poverty Law Center brought the case on behalf of workers who planted pine trees for Franklin, Ga.-based Eller and Sons Trees Inc. over about 10 years starting in 1999. The workers claimed they weren't reimbursed for travel and visa expenses. They also said they weren't given all the hours of work they were promised in their contracts and that the company failed to keep accurate records of their hours.
The judgment Monday ordered the company to pay $11.8 million to the workers.
"Employers are now on notice that these types of abusive employment situations involving guest workers will not be tolerated and will prove devastatingly costly," said Jim Knoepp, the main SPLC lawyer on the case.
"They did not abuse these guest workers. They made a lot of good money," said Larry Stine, a lawyer for company owner Jerry Eller. "The lawsuit was about technicalities."
The cost of defending against the lawsuit forced the company out of business, Stine said. Eller subsequently filed for bankruptcy, leaving little for the plaintiffs to collect.
Eller filed for bankruptcy in Montana, where he lives now, and the settlement of his bankruptcy case essentially says he will not appeal the judgment in the lawsuit and the guest workers agreed not to collect settlement money under most circumstances, Stine said.
"They managed to destroy the employer," Stine said. "They managed to destroy their future earnings. Mr. Eller was basically the main economic stay of a couple of villages in Guatemala."
The court found that employers can't effectively push a worker's pay below minimum wage by requiring them to pay for expenses like passports, visas and travel costs, which benefit the employer. The court also found that guest workers can enforce conditions on their visa applications, including the total number of hours the employees will work each week.
Even though his clients will likely receive very little money, the huge award is validation of the lawsuit and sends a powerful message to other employers who use guest workers, Knoepp said.
"Some of the legal precedents established in this case are benefiting other workers who come on guest worker visas. To that extent, we feel good about the outcome of the case," he said. "But it would obviously feel a lot better if I was calling up people to tell them where they could go pick up their money."

We also encourage team members to consider the environment - just as they would consider revenue growth, efficiency or cost savings whenever they make a decision about lending money, developing a new product or saving a single sheet of paper. We have made great strides since announcing our 10-point commitment in 2005 and we seek to continually improve.
