I have recently opened a restaurant with a bar etc etc We have the Sonos system installed and are streaming music. the issue we have is the levels are all over the place and you therefore have some tracks that you can hardly hear and then it sounds like the ministry of sound when other tracks come on. Should I persist with this or what else is out there that can be used instead?

Happening Elsewhere: Melo to Knicks, Hell Breaks Loose
Feb 22, 2011, 9:46 AM EDT
When Twitter exploded at 10:30 last night, it was a pretty safe bet that the moment the NBA world had been waiting for had finally come to fruition. Three days before the NBA trade deadline, All-Star Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony had finally been granted his wish for a trade, getting sent to the New York Knicks along with point guard Chauncey Billups and a trio of bench scrubs (Shelden Williams, Renaldo Balkman, Anthony Carter). In exchange, the Nuggets received 3/5 of the Knicks' starting lineup (point Raymond Felton, forward Danilo Gallinari and center Timofey Mozgov), as well as reserve forward Wilson Chandler, some cash, some draft picks, the fan rights to Kevin James and Chris Rock and one of the "K"s in the Knicks logo.
The deal is an absolute coup for the Nuggets, who had little choice but to deal the one-foot-out-the-door Anthony, and as recently as a few weeks ago were rumored to be mulling a deal of Anthony for just Chandler and some spare parts. Instead, they get four legitimate rotation players, two of which (Mozgov/Gallo) are still young'ns under rookie-type deals, as well as cap relief and future draft picks. By playing the Nets and Knicks' respective trade packages against each other, and capitalizing on Knicks owner James Dolan's panic over potentially losing the Melo sweepstakes to NJ, they essentially rebuilt in one night. Admirable, to say the least.
What the deal means to the Knicks is more up for debate. On one hand, they got their man in Anthony, and now boast two of the league's top six scorers in Melo and big man Amar'e Stoudemire, as well as a proven veteran leader (and onetime finals MVP) at the one in Chauncey Billups. But the team is now thin up front as well as on the bench, having sacrificed a good deal of its depth in order to land Melo. Most NBA experts seem to believe that even with the two All-Star starters on the roster, the team's roster lacks the strength for a deep playoff run this year.
Of course, it's also believed by many that this move was not made just for this year, but with an eye towards the future–namely, the 2012 off-season, when coveted point guards Chris Paul and Deron Williams may be available in free agency, along with perennial All-NBA center Dwight Howard. With seemingly all their other players off the books, and Billups's contract expiring next year, the Knicks could possibly make a run at a third max free agent. Of course, no one knows what the future holds with the new CBA, but the Knicks will undoubtedly at least be players in the next couple free agent markets as they look to build around their two new superstars. It beats David Lee and Nate Robinson, anyway, I'm sure.
Tickets for the Knicks' Wednesday home game against the Bucks are now available for upwards of $200, by the way. If you're in the area.

Daytrip 4 - Higuey
Higuey is a city situated somewhat near Punta Caña, and it is the capital of La Altagracia Province. We ventured on a public bus and visited Higuey for an afternoon. Visiting this city by ourselves, we managed to have a real feel of authentic Dominican lifestyle, and not only the idyllic beaches and landscapes that the guides showed us before. Looks like that "real life" is so different from the things we had seen so far on the island.
Markets are a place I like to visit, as I enjoy seeing food and habits. The market I visited here left quite a "big" impression on me, mainly the smell, as it wasn't pleasant at all. Habits are undoubtedly different, and butchers, for example, hang the raw meat on front of the shops leaving I hanging there the whole day, … The main reason for the smell, is that there isn't a sewer system and water and garbage run on the street.
There is also a part of the city that is tourist oriented – a lot of souvenir shops, mainly hand crafts and cigars.
When in Higuey be sure not to miss the Cathedral, in my opinion, the city's main must see.- Family Travel

Daytrip 1 – Sugar cane plantations
One major economic activity in the inner island is the sugar cane plantations. You can see huge plantations (farms) where the green sugar cane fields extend for kilometres and kilometres.
The owners of these farms have installations for their workers, mainly Haitians. Haitian men come to Dominican Republic in search of work and bring wife and children.
Farms are opened for guided visits, where you will be able to see how they harvest the sugar cane and load it into the ware houses. Also they will give you some sugar cane to taste, as well as rum, one of the main products made on the island from the sugar cane.- Family Travel

explore the countryside
We are usually the type of people that like to explore the world outside the hotel and see how the people live so we became friends with one of the hotel workers and he took us on a private tour of the area. The town he took us to, about an hour outside Punta Cana, was typical rural DR with small homes, some dirt roads, lots of friendly people. We found some souviner shops that gave us way better bargins than the resort.
We also visited Mi Amor Rum Factory, and a cigar factory.- Spa and Resort

It may sound strange, but I think part of their lack of interest is caused by DD looking so much like my husband's side of the family. Well, judging by the emails we've recieved where they've asked us to please have another child that looks like them. Okay then, crazy parents! I'll get onto spitting out a clone for you!
NOS, you need to grieve for your sister. No one can change who she was and no one can grieve for you. It was selfless of you to help your parents with it but you deserve support too. The loss was as much yours as theirs. I'm so glad you have your letters.

Recipe by Patrick
"Round steak is given the right kick to bring out the perfect balance of heat and flavor. Serve over cooked noodles of your choice."
Watch video tips and tricks
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 pounds round steak, cubed
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup chopped onion
4 habanero peppers, seeded and minced
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1 cup water
2 tablespoons finely grated raw horseradish
1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup cold water
Made this last night. Turned out so good! I subed jalapenos for the habanero peppers, as I didn't have them, other than that followed it to a T!!! Thanks for sharing! :) :) :)
We enjoyed this and were happy that it was low in sodium!!! For low salt it is as good as it gets.
5 Ratings
I made this last night and found it so/so. I found the cooking time too long, maybe it would be okay if the steak was a very thick cut. By the time I served it, it resembled shredded beef. I also had to add a lot more liquid when adding the flour as it turned way too thick. The flavour was okay- it did disguise the "livery" taste of the round steak. All in all it really is just a stew without any vegetables with some kick. I did like the flavor of the horseradish, however.
Will make over and over again!
This was really good. It almost killed the taste of the round steak! I used jalapenos for the peppers and served it on rice. Next time if I cut the steak smaller it may actually finally kill the liver flavor. Yahoo!

Vince McMahon's "Death" And WWE's "Stock" Answer!
It has been a week since I questioned whether Vince McMahon's fake death could lead to shareholder lawsuits since McMahon is so material to the organization's business. Last Tuesday, the WWE said they had not received any calls from those holding WWE stock and then promptly named me a suspect in the death of "Mr. McMahon," who they said was the character played by Vince McMahon.
Well, this morning I walked into the office and received this statement in my e-mail box from the WWE: Even though the WWE still considers Darren Rovell a "suspect," it should be noted that there actually were two stockholders (out of our thousands of shareholders) who did inquire about the status of "Mr. McMahon's" alleged demise. One purported stockholder emailed our investor relations department one week after the incident occurred, and initially did not sign his name, instead signing with several "X's." The other inquiry came via telephone from a named stockholder who was satisfied with the answer to his inquiry -- so much so that he subsequently bought additional shares.
The WWE does not consider the persons responsible for these two inquiries as suspects.
Obviously the WWE isn't scared off by the fake death. The organization is going forward with "Mr. McMahon's" Memorial Service tonight on Raw. It's a three-hour special that begins at 8 p.m. ET on USA.
Green-back Packers
Because they are the NFL only team that sells stock (even though there's no dividend and the north of 100,000 shareholders can't trade shares), the Green Bay Packers are the only team that opens their books to the world. Before I give you these numbers, obtained by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, remember the lesson that comes out of this, which is small market doesn't always mean small revenue. For those who don't realize this, Green Bay has a population of something like 102,000 people -- roughly equal to the number of people in Olathe, Kan.
Operating Revenue: Up 4.8 percent to $218 million.
Overall Operating Expenses: Down 2 percent to $183.8 million.
NFL Revenue (includes all media and licensing fees): Up 9.3 percent to $111.5 million.
Marketing Revenue: Down 1.7 percent to $40.7 million.
The entire budget shows that the Packers made $22 million, despite their 8-8 record. That means the Packers will likely be paying some money to the have-nots like the Buffalo Bills. The team also has built up what they call a "franchise preservation fund" to the tune of $125.5 million to help the team in hard times.
How healthy are the Green Bay Packers? They've sold out every game since 1960 and they have season ticket holders from all 50 states. Since the folks who signed up for the list in 1974 were getting off last year, I put my name in last September to see how long it would take me.
As you can see from the letter below, my "priority number" is 72,589. When I looked into this further, which the average Bear, or Packer for that matter usually doesn't do, I found out that there are 239,038 seats ahead of me and that I was on pace to get off the list in the year 4397. So everyone who signs up on the list from now on is wasting their time unless they want to be frozen in the tundra for a couple thousand years in the hopes of seeing Brett Favre the 61st playing.
Roger Federer Jacket
As Roger Federer begins his quest for his fifth straight Wimbledon title today, he'll be doing it in style. You might have noticed as he stepped out on the court this morning, he was wearing a gold headband and white shoes with gold on it. He'll also be continuing his tradition of wearing a blazer and pants out onto the court. Here's what the whole deal looks like.
The Worst Web Site
I'm usually not this harsh, but I couldn't believe Chris Fowler when he mentioned this morning on ESPN2's coverage of Wimbledon that Richard Williams, father of Venus and Serena, has a new Web site. Simply go to www.richardwilliamsthetennisfathertravel.com. I swear, I'm not kidding you. I'm sure the folks at Orbitz, Travelocity and Trip Advisor are shaking in their boots

As long as I'm on the bad stuff, I might as well get to this Steve Nash/Ahmad Rashad Raymond Weil ad.

'Mansome' Director Morgan Spurlock Talks VOD Vs Theatrical and Why Christopher J. Christie Needs to Lose Some Weight
Documentary funnyman (and Academy Award nominee) Morgan Spurlock has had a tough run of late in theaters. Ever since his debut "Super Size Me" become a high-grossing indie phenomenon (it made North of $11 million domestically), Spurlock has seen his theatrical stock drop with each subsequent release.
In 2008, his "Where In The World Is Osama Bin Laden" grossed $148,698 from 102 screens, ending up with just $384,955 in total. Last year, his much-hyped "POM Wonderful Presents: The Greatest Movie Ever Sold" averaged $6,572 from 18 screens en route to a $638,476 gross. And this year, Spurlock released his two biggest theatrical flops to date: "Comic-Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope" and "Mansome. The latter
nose dived
theatrically in May after premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival, averaging just $920 per theater (it opened in 20) in its first week of limited release. "Comic-Con" fared a bit better by averaging $2,734 when it opened on three screens in April.
With those dire numbers, you'd think Spurlock would be in a dampened mood when I caught up with him to discuss the VOD release of "Mansome" via FilmBuff. Fact is, he was far from it, speaking to Indiewire on the phone from Italy, where he's celebrating his mother's 70th birthday. His buoyant tone probably had to do with his good fortune on the VOD marketplace. Just this year saw "Comic-Con" do healthy business on demand despite not hitting it out of the park theatrically, and "Mansome" debuted on iTunes in first place as the most downloaded independent film, ahead of higher profile narrative titles like "Take This Waltz" and "2 Days in New York" (it currently holds third position).
"I think the frustration that a lot of filmmakers feel is that films just kind of get tossed away to VOD. "
"Mansome" seems poised to do good business on VOD given its raucous subject matter (what it means to be a man in today's manscaping age) and star wattage (producer Jason Bateman and Will Arnett appear in the picture). Theatrically however, the film didn't fare so well. What do you make of this new way to view movies? Do you regret going theatrical with it in the first place?
I think ultimately what's happening right now is there's a shift in the marketplace in general with independent films. I think that distributors are being incredibly savvy and also tight with where they want to spend their marketing and promotional budgets. They look at what a film like this costs and ultimately how much they can make on VOD or iTunes. I think people are being very smart about where they spend their money knowing they can recoup their investment once they hit video on demand and iTunes. This film is one of those -- I think you're absolutely right. It should do very well. Right now, I think it's the number one indie film on iTunes.
There's not a lot of documentaries that are making millions and millions of dollars. From the distributors standpoint, if you want to be smart about where you spend that money, and if you could spend more money towards pushing people towards a VOD release, then great. I think the frustration that a lot of filmmakers feel is that films just kind of get tossed away to VOD. Without having anything to drive that conversation or drive people to VOD, no one knows it's there. It's a tree falling in a forest and it's just complete silence. If you acquire a film for $25,0000 or $50,000 and you're able to make that back in two weeks or three weeks on a VOD run, like a lot of networks or distributors do, great. But if you have a film that has a small theatrical release, you have a much larger investment once it comes to a VOD marketplace.
Utimately as a filmmaker, you want to try and put films in some sort of a theatrical run before VOD, just because you're going to get so much more press. You're going to get much more attention about any film that goes into a movie theater than you ever will about a film that just opens on VOD. VOD is still seen as a secondary marketplace, just as a VHS tape or a DVD used to be seen.
Sounds like you don't see yourself going down the route of VOD, minus theatrical. For now anyways...
I mean, you gotta look at "Comic-Con." "Comic-Con" is an example where we really compressed that window. We still rely on the theatrical to drive our press, and luckily we had a tremendous amount of press around that film. We did as close to a day and day as we could working within the Academy rules. We opened that film in theaters on Thursday and by Friday, as the film expanded into San Francisco and Portland, Seattle, and the east coast like Boston, New York, DC, it also went nationwide on iTunes and on demand. For that film I thought it made a lot of sense. It was our goal from the beginning to make sure that we weren't in a position like we were with "The Greatest Movie Ever Sold." We had a tremendous amount of press and interest, and the rest of the country couldn't see it.
How frustrated are you by the fact that press don't report on VOD numbers, the way they do on theatrical ones?
Well, I think ultimately a lot of distributors don't want to put those numbers out because again, those numbers probably aren't what people want to hear. If you're a distributor and you want to keep getting access to good movies, you don't want people to know the reality of what they can really make. I think when you start seeing movies that are making tens of billions of dollars on VOD, people are going to be talking about those numbers.

The path to satisfying relationships is clear. And rarely taken.
We all long for close relationships. Bonds so secure that we can be completely honest and vulnerable. But often, we keep our relationships at a safe--and shallow--level. We avoid the risk of revealing all thats in our hearts.
God wants us to take that risk. His reward for doing so is the satisfaction of true, deep community. If youre ready to experience that joy, Transparency will help you move beyond your fears into the realm of knowing others and being known by them. Each session will carefully assist you in peeling away the disguises that prevent you from being your truest, freest self. Get ready for a life-changing adventure in developing richer, more meaningful relationships with God, with others, and with yourself.
Interactions--a powerful, challenging tool for building deep relationships between you and your group member, and you and God. Interaction is far more than another group Bible study. Its a cutting-edge series designed to help small group participants develop into fully devoted followers of Christ.
If you are the discussion leader, you will find additional suggestions and helpful ideas in the Leader's Notes. [via]

Politics Kansas Supreme Court: Change school aid formula and study whether to spend more The high court ruled that cuts in education funding since 2010 led to an unconstitutionally imbalanced playing field between rich and poor schools. Its decision means lawmakers by July 1 must close the gap or a panel of three district court judges will decide how to do it for them. On a grander scale, the court put off a decision on whether Kansas was spending enough on schools to meet its constitutional obligation to suitably finance public education.

Business Permits are lacking on many home furnace replacement jobs in area A review by The Star of public records from Kansas City, Lee's Summit, Overland Park and Olathe tracking the replacement of residential heating and cooling units in 2013 determined that permits were rarely pulled. The records showed that some of the area's well-known and established heating and cooling companies took out few if any permits. This means many homeowners don't get safety inspections to ensure carbon monoxide is vented properly.

mosaic - Computer Definition
An Internet browser that provides a consistent user interface available in versions to support Macintosh, Microsoft Windows, and Unix
The Web browser created by Marc Andreessen, Eric Bina and others at the University of Illinois National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA). It was the first multimedia browser for the Web, allowing text, images, sound and video to be accessed via a graphical user interface. The "Killer App" of the Web Mosaic was released on the Internet in 1993 and became "the" application that caused the Web to explode. Originally developed for Unix, it was ported to Windows and Mac within a few months. Both Andreessen and Bina later went to work for Mosaic Corporation, which was formed to market Mosaic, but wound up developing the Netscape browser. The company was renamed Netscape, and the Netscape browser reigned supreme for a while. The University eventually licensed Mosaic to Spyglass, Inc., which Microsoft acquired. Thus, the Mosaic browser ultimately evolved into Internet Explorer. See Web browser and Netscape.

Arsenios Autoreianos
Arsenios Autoreianos (Latinized as Arsenius Autorianus) (Greek: Ἀρσένιος Ἀυτωρειανός) (ca. 1200 – 1273), Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople, lived about the middle of the 13th century.[1]
Born in Constantinople ca. 1200, he received his education in Nicaea at a monastery of which he later became the abbot, though not in orders. Subsequently he gave himself up to a life of solitary asceticism in a Bithynian monastery, and is said, probably wrongly,[citation needed] to have remained some time in a monastery on Mount Athos.
From this seclusion he was called by the Byzantine Emperor Theodore II Lascaris to the position of patriarch at Nicaea in 1255, and four years later, upon the emperor's death, became joint guardian of his son John IV Lascaris. His fellow-guardian George Muzalon was immediately murdered by Michael Palaeologus, who assumed the position of tutor.
Arsenius then took refuge in the monastery of Paschasius, retaining his office of patriarch but refusing to discharge its duties. Nicephorus of Ephesus was appointed in his stead. Michael, having recovered Constantinople from the Latin Empire, induced Arsenius to undertake the office of patriarch, but soon incurred Arsenius' severe censure by ordering the young prince John to be blinded. Arsenius went so far as to excommunicate the emperor, who having vainly sought for a pardon, made false accusations against Arsenius which caused him to be banished to Proconnesus, where some years afterwards (according to Fabricius in 1264; others say in 1273) he died.
Throughout these years Arsenius declined to remove the sentence of excommunication which was sentenced on Michael and after his death, when the new patriarch Joseph gave absolution to the emperor, the dispute was carried on between the "Arsenites" and the "Josephists." The "Arsenian schism" lasted till 1315, when a reconciliation was pronounced by the patriarch Nephon I. Arsenius is said to have prepared the decisions of the councils and the works of the Fathers a summary of divine laws under the title Synopsis Canonum.[citation needed] Some hold that Synopsis was the work of another Arsenius, a monk of Athos; the ascription depends on whether the patriarch Arsenius did or did not reside at Mount Athos.

This is what we have been waiting for. The final chapter. The final test to see if Peter Jackson really could pull off the greatest novel adaptation of all time. The answer? Yes, of course. The film continues to dazzle and keeps you glued to your seat, as well as touching more than one soft spot in our hearts. But what can really be said that hasnt already been said? Many of the praises from the first two films carry over here, as well as add in more elements to savor. The film opens with a flashback of sorts, to an event that happened before the first movie began. Finally, Andy Serkis (Gollum) gets his due and we see his face uncovered by CGI. Perhaps this brief scene will be enough to have the Academy realize they really can nominate non-traditional characters for Best Supporting Actor/Actress. From there we catch up with the two groups: Frodo, Sam, and Gollum traveling to Mordor, and the remaining members of the Fellowship celebrating the victory at Helms Deep. Ever the serious one, Aragorn reminds everyone of the impending evil, and we are plunged into more battle. I dont want to give too much away, even though anyone who has read the book knows the story. Some might even say that Jackson remained too faithful to the original story in some areas, although there are also aspects of the book that are merely hinted at within the film. Hopefully these scenes exist and were just cut for time (the movie already runs at 3 hours and 20 minutes) and Jackson will include these in the DVD version. The visual aspects of the film continue to impress, and those who were concerned that the simultaneous filming of the LOTR series three years ago would prove to hurt the FX of the later films are proven wrong. Seeing hordes of Gondor soldiers sweep past and around the stomping feet of oliphants, as well as the ghostly confrontation Aragorn is faced with, gives one chills. Jackson effectively uses a washed out look to the film to properly set the mood at both Mordor and Minas Tirith, emphasizing the sheer futility of it all. If you dont want to visit New Zealand after seeing these films, there is something seriously wrong with you. While there is much drawing of swords and shooting of arrows, there are also moments tender enough to make a heart break. These moments show the depth each of our characters have been given by the actors. Perhaps one of the most poignant scenes is delivered in song by the sweet voice of Billy Boyd, whose character Pippin sings for the steward of Gondor while soldiers move to battle. All told, my eyes misted at least ten times during the course of the film. The end of the film is a little extended for the common film, but in this reviewers eyes it is required. While I left the theatre smiling and with a sense of peace and satisfaction at seeing this epic tale fully visualized, I am also left wondering. What can be left in terms of hurdles to be crossed in fantasy film? Perhaps Jackson has leapt all the barriers and left none for the rest of us. But given the final product, I dont think I mind.

Define success
Page 3 of 17 -- We can only wish new punter Brooks Barnard, who kicked at University of Maryland, good luck in his first NFL game. His dad, John, an American Airlines pilot, named him after the great Brooks Robinson. Does that mean he has good hands?
On to the mailbag:
Nick, What do you think the Pats will do with there stock pile of draft picks? Thanks.
Joe Wagner, Woodbridge, Va.
A: My guess is they'll trade some of them. They usually do. Maybe they figure the '07 draft is going to be awesome. Just kidding. But I think they'll wheel and deal like they always do.
Nick, I respect your opinion. Is there a better owner in the NFL than Bob Kraft? Personally, I don't care if the Patriots get the national recognition as an outstanding football team and organization. As you've stated, they seem to thrive on being "under the radar." But here are some facts that I think other Pats fans (especially us transplants) can take into any argument about who is the best franchise in the NFL since 1996: Only 5 teams (Dolphins, 49ers, Packers, Bucs, and Vikings with five) have made the playoffs more than the Pats (4 times. No one has been to more than the Pats' 2 Super Bowls (Pack, Rams, and Broncos, 2 also). Only the Broncos have more than the Pats one Super Bowl win. And since the start of the 2001 season, no AFC team has more wins. (Only the Pack and Eagles have more, 30 and 31, respectively.) So very few team can argue that their run has been better. My final comment would be to tell the "Ask Nick" readers to stop worrying, whining, and complaining. We are in the Glory Years of Patriots football. Enjoy it!
Peter Northgraves, Atlanta, GA
A: You're right. These are the glory years of the team and you have so many unhappy people.
Love the column. I have some general comments so I will probably never get posted. The thing with huge salaries like Milloy's and Law's is that you have to start thinking in terms of is Ty Law worth three Rodney Harrisons or 6 Dan Kleckos? Milloy still can play, I think he has near 60 tackles this season, but you can't tie up too many dollars in a single player because you won't be able to fill your roster with quality players. Drew Bledsoe is a good quarterback, he put his health on the line for the team and I will always appreciate the fun of watching him blast the ball all over the field. I think his demise in New England started when Martin took off for the Jets and Terry Glenn took off for parts unknown. A downfield pocket passer needs a good running back to keep the defense guessing, unlike a Brady who does the short quick pass well. (Bledsoe never could take enough juice off the ball on the short routes.) Now my question. How does the coin toss work? Who makes the call? If the Patriots just called the same side of the coin every time, they would win the toss 50 percent of the time. Thanks a bunch.
Chris Morris, Chicago, Ill. Continued...

Caller warns worker Oak Creek grocery store is about to be 'shot up'
Oak Creek - An anonymous caller threatened to kill an employee at Pick 'n Save, 2320 W. Ryan Road, Sunday, while warning that the store would be "shot up," according to an Oak Creek police report.
The report states:
At 2:54 p.m. Nov. 25, an employee received a phone call from an unidentified male who stated: "This is an officer. My boss told me to call you. I'm supposed to tell you that your store is going to get shot up. Listen to my directions, sit in the corner or I will kill you."
After the caller hung up, the employee called her manager, who then called police. Officers searched the store, the parking lot and surrounding business parking lots but did not find anything suspicious.
The manager called the phone number the call had originated from, but no one picked up the phone and there was no answering machine.

Oak Creek — A documentary film about the Oak Creek Sikh Temple shooting, "Waking in Oak Creek," will be screened from 7 to 9 p.m. Thursday at the Oak Creek Community Center, 8580 S. Howell Ave.
PBS's production company, "Not In Our Town" started filming "Waking in Oak Creek" after the candlelight vigil 18 months ago. Filmmakers sought to capture the city's reaction to tragedy and how it has been strengthened because of it, said Leslie Flynn, geographic informational systems coordinator at City Hall.
Flynn said the film is suitable for children but may contain emotional content.
A panel discussion with Mayor Steve Scaffidi, Police Chief John Edwards and Amardeep Kaleka will follow the screening. Kaleka is son of Satwant Kaleka, temple president, who was among those killed by gunman Wade Michael Page in 2012.

Greendale High School's surprise qualification for the WIAA Boys Basketball State Tournament this weekend posed an unforseen threat to another high-profile event: the opening of the school's spring musical.
School leaders report they've had to do some last-minute rescheduling after realizing the Division 2 semifinal game will be played late Friday afternoon - directly conflicting with opening night of the school's musical, Pippin.
One basketball player is a bass player in the pit orchestra. A soundboard operator plays in the school's pep band. The conductor of the pit orchestra is in the pep band, too.
To try to accommodate students - and fans - of both programs, school leaders have made a controversial decision to move opening night of the musical from Friday to Thursday, and to cancel both the Friday and Saturday performances this week.
The school added a Pippin performance next Thursday.

The shot wasn't supposed to go to senior Oak Creek guard Alex Medenwaldt.
"The play was designed for a drive and kick to Harrison (Cleary)," said Medenwaldt, "but they had that covered so I took it."
That particular shot came just moments after the host Greenfield boys basketball team had missed what could have been a clinching front-end of a bonus situation with about four seconds left in a WIAA regional quarterfinal game Tuesday night.
Medenwaldt went up the court as fast as he could and released the desperation 3-point shot from the right wing, and it swished at the buzzer, knotting the score at 40-all.
"It was a long shot," said Medenwaldt, "but my teammates gave me the confidence that I could hit it. I'm just glad they gave me that shot."

Acts 10:34–43; Colossians 3:1–4; John 20:1–18
I was in Nashville with colleagues, and a few of us had made our way to the Bluebird Cafe, which might be called the mother church for country music songwriters. A quartet of men and women sang and played guitar for about 80 people from 9 p.m. to around 11. The music was beautiful, and I wandered out of the café with the honest testimonies of human nature and destiny stirring within me.
The Easter response
We Christians believe that we have a moral obligation to point to the pain that the rest of the world can't see. Others may stroll past the suffering, but we stop and stare, take up an offering, make an appeal and collect blankets, sighing as we do our bit to alleviate some of the misery. That life may not actually be rotten in our part of the world today only increases our guilt for our occasional lapses into joy. How dare we sing when others are sufffering?
John 20:1-18
In his collection of poems titled After the Lost War, Andrew Hudgins chronicles the life of a Confederate soldier during and just after the Civil War. In "What Light Destroys," the soldier fondly recalls a camping trip he once took with his four sons.
John 20:1-18; Matthew 28:1-10
The music is out in brassy force, the altar flowers are in full bloom, and the sanctuary is full of people not seen since December. Ironically, even the visitors know the story, or imagine they do, and the lectionary readings are always the same—Matthew or John. What does the preacher say in her second, or 22nd Easter sermon that wasn't said before?
Colossians 3:1-4; Matthew 28:1-10
Rarely are cemeteries as peaceful as they seem. My boyhood friends visited them by night to consult with spirits—86-proof spirits, as I recall. Sometimes we'd glimpse young couples having soulful, breathy talks among the tombstones.

Judged: 6 6 6 More idiocy from Progressives who fail to understand what they are criticizing. The subsidies paid to farmers are for ten named groups-wheat, milk, peanuts, soybeans, corn, etc. Did you ever think about why the FEDs are making it profitable to raise those crops? Of course not. These named food items are considered essential by the FEDs because they are used as commodities to fulfill obligations to the UN food programs and used for low income commodities as well are sent to school lunch programs and other institutions. What the law states is- if the market price falls below a certain level -making it unprofitable to produce this item- the government will fallow a formula to reimburse the farmer so there will always be a supply. |

Judged: 6 5 4 ....Peggy Noonan on Friday touted Vuegers spin on the study (which she clearly did not read) and seemed especially taken with the theory that it was a Democratic voter suppression effort: Think about the sheer political facts of the presidents 2012 victory. The first thing we learned, in the weeks after the voting, was that the Obama campaign was operating with a huge edge in its technological operationits vast digital capability and sophistication. The second thing we learned, in the past month, is that while the campaign was on, the presidents fiercest foes, in the Tea Party, were being thwarted, diverted and stopped. Technological savvy plus IRS corruption. The presidents victory now looks colder, more sordid, than it did. Thinking about it, as Noonan suggests I do, I just cannot find a there there. The Tea Party seems to have contributed to a higher vote for the GOP measured by the popular vote for the House, which is Veugers baseline in 2012 than in 2008, and much a larger total than 2010. Meanwhile, the Tea Party was not being thwarted, diverted, and stopped. The IRS was examining the applications of Tea Party-affiliated non-profits, none of which should have had nothing to do with the campaign anyway. There was a good reason they were being examined. Although we would like to think these citizens groups are as pure as newly fallen snow, the fact is, some Tea Party non-profits were clearly breaking the law. Not for the first time in the last few years, Peggy Noonan needs to take a deep breath. And AEI might want to caution Stan Veuger about using his colleagues straightforward scholarly work to extrapolate a case that is not there. http://www.theamericanconservative.com/did-th... |
Judged: 6 6 5 'Obamas Melting Wings of Love The wings of love dont seem to carry Obama as far as they used to. MSNBCs Chris Matthews blamed the lackluster performance on the suns glare affecting his ability to read the text. THATS HOW BAD IT IS: GLOBAL WARMING MELTED HIS PROMPTER. But the speech itself was barely distinguishable in its cobwebbed UTOPIAN PABULUM from the video for a nuclear-free world just released by Michael Douglas and other celebrities. And Mr. Douglas, who recently gave a fascinating interview to the Guardian in which he blamed his cancerous walnut-sized tongue tumor upon his addiction to oral sex, at least has a better excuse as to why his silvery tongue doesnt work its magic quite the way it used to. Der Spiegel, which is the very definition of mainstream media in Germany, described the presidents Berlin stop as a visit by the head of the largest and most all-encompassing surveillance system ever invented and under the headline Obamas Soft Totalitarianism. Obama isnt a soft totalitarian so much as a slapdash one. His apparatchiks monitor the e-mails of both Jeffrey and George Osborne, but he still cant tell one from the other. Likewise, in Syria as in Libya,the largest and most all-encompassing surveillance system ever invented cant tell a plucky freedom fighter itching to build Massachusetts in the sands of Araby from your neighborhood al-Qaeda subsidiary whose health-care plan only covers clitoridectomies. OBAMAS G8 COLLEAGUES HAVE BEGUN TO FIGURE OUT THAT AMERICA NO LONGER MATTERS. To be sure, the trappings of the presidency are a lagging indicator: He still flies in with more limos and Secret Service agents than everybody else, combined. Then again, the other American story to catch the fancy of the Fleet Street tabloids in recent days is that of the unfortunate Las Vegas man with the worlds biggest scrotum, weighing 140 pounds, yet unable to perform. Of his talks with Vladimir Putin, the president said,With respect to Syria, we do have differing perspectives on the problem, but we share an interest in reducing the violence. Putin aims to reduce the violence by getting his boy Assad to kill everyone he needs to. Obama aims to reduce the violence by giving a speech about the intolerance that fuels extremism or is it the other way round? THE WORLD UNDERSTANDS THAT PUTIN MEANS IT AND OBAMA DOESNT JUST AS IN AFGHANISTAN EVERYONE KNOWS THE TALIBAN MEANS IT AND THE FAINTHEARTED SUPERPOWER DOESNT. Thanks to the stork delivering his bundle to Miss Kardashian, Americans seem not to have noticed that THE U.S. HAS JUST LOST YET ANOTHER WAR. BUT IN MOSCOW, BEIJING, TEHRAN, THEY NOTICED, AND THEY WILL ACT ACCORDINGLY. On the wings of love, up and above the clouds, Obama wafts ever higher on his own gaseous uplift. Down on solid ground, the rest of the world must occasionally wonder if they havent confused the U.S. delegation with the worlds most empty-headed boy band. http://www.nationalreview.com/article/351741/... |

<Sorry, no specific search terms. and I am 31 for all of them. [edited by: tedster at 9:10 pm (utc) on Oct. 16, 2006]
One of my sites got hit October last year, it used to rank high for virtualy whatever I targetted, had about 5000 strong pages then overnight it was all gone. I always thought it was only a matter of time, as I was doing some pretty competitive stuff at the time and was pushing the boundaries a bit. It was also a site that I had used

As I was expecting it I didn't even bother about trying to do anything about it and just left it as it was, then back in January I deleted all but about 50 pages and tidied everything up.
It is now crawled every 3 or 4 days, is PR5, but will not rank for anything.
