- Sportskool was an on-demand video channel owned by the same parent company as IFC and AMC and used Brightcove video streaming services to deliver its content. Because of my experience with Brightcove players and excellent working relationship with the team at AMC Networks, they hired me to redesign their entire website. My role included layout design, user interaction design, and web graphic design.
AMC networks sold Sportskool only a year later, but the current owners only recently changed the site design.

You've probably heard the old joke about the student who decides that instead of handing in a traditional written thesis, she will express her research in an interpretive dance. The joke is usually leveled at humanities departments and their alleged fuzzy thinking and lack of rigor. Well, some scientists have taken the idea seriously. For the past several years, Gonzo Labs has held an annual "Dance Your PhD" contest for scientists around the world. You can read about the contest and view past entries and winners here.
Last month Gonzo Scientist John Bohannon took things a step further. He offered a modest proposal at TedX Brussels that we replace PowerPoint presentations with interpretive dance. His talk is both funny and thoughtful—as well as entertaining. Arguing that "bad PowerPoint presentations are a serious threat to the global economy" he suggests that "we should use dance to explain all of our complex problems." It's worth watching.
Whether budget-conscious university administrators will crunch the numbers and decide to fund dance troupes instead of tech support staff remains to be seen.

ST. MARYS — Locals looking to stay in town and still be able to hear local bands, can head over to Memorial Park as the 2011 Rotary Summer Concert Series kicks off on Sunday.
Six performers will be featured this year during the program, which has been occurring in St. Marys for more than 20 years, Chair Jeff Squire said.
"Rotary sponsors the Summer Concert Series, and as part of the Rotary Club, I'm the chair of the concert series," Squire noted.
ST. MARYS — After months on the decline, the unemployment rate in Auglaize County edged slightly higher in May.
According to data released by the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services, Auglaize County registered an unemployment rate of 7.6 percent, an increase of 0.3 percent from April's 7.3 percent. Last year the unemployment rate for the county was at 9 percent.
ST. MARYS — Members of a city committee got the first glimpse of the 2012 budget for the city of St. Marys.
St. Marys Safety-Service Director Tom Hitchcock unveiled the preliminary 2012 budget during a finance committee meeting Monday night. The proposed measure clocked in at $44.73 million, more than $3 million less than the 2011 budget of $47.85 million. As of June 17, the city has incurred expenditures of $16.45 million. In 2008, the city spent $50.39 million. It spent $45.85 million in 2009 and $40.17 million in 2010.
NEW BREMEN — Children shuffled through the aisles of books at the New Bremen Public Library searching for clues in the scavenger hunt Monday as part of the library's summer reading program.
The hunt, open to readers of all ages, scattered scavengers throughout the library in search for clues hidden among the books and magazines. Third-grade student Mariah Parlett completed the scavenger hunt with some ease.
"I went through and found all the papers in the library and at the end I got a cool prize," Parlett said.
ST. MARYS — Historic cars of different models and colors lined a parking lot at a local car dealership this weekend, as the dealership held its annual cruise-in, with the proceeds from the event benefitting a former NFL football player's foundation that honors his son.
"This is our 12th year," Coordinator Brian Engel said of the MOPAR or No Car St. Marys Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep Cruise-in held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, which boasted approximately 150 cars.
NEW BREMEN — Area children were able to participate in the arts as part of the first-ever combined Arts in the Parks day in New Bremen this weekend.
On Saturday, Arts Place's Arts in the Parks hosted three back-to-back events at Lock One in New Bremen.
June 20: The New Bremen Public Library will hold at scavenger hunt from noon to 7 p.m. today.
FJ Stallo Memorial Library in Minster will hold a bead-making craft from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Preregistration is required and call 419-628-2925 to sign up.
New Knoxville Community Library will host Steve Belliveau's Get Science Show from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. today.
ST. MARYS — A local state senator says he hopes three provisions he fought to include in the biennial budget aimed at helping Grand Lake St. Marys make it to the governor's desk.
State Sen. Keith Faber proposed shifting $4 million of Waterways Safety funds initially earmarked for a marina at Caesar Creek, in Waynesville, to Grand Lake St. Marys for algae mitigation. Faber told The Evening Leader funding from the marina would then come from a capital improvement fund.
WAPAKONETA — A local partnership between an educational center and a Wapakoneta business has lead to the ultimate accomplishment for a program designed for children with autism.
The Auglaize County Educational Service Center (ESC) provides a program, Project Independence, which is a transitional program designed for children with autism to give them the skills they need to live on their own after high school.
ST. MARYS — The St. Marys Community Youth Center was forced to temporarily close Wednesday because of the loss of its two government-funded positions.
The center previously had two workers from Experience Works, a government-based company, but because of budget cut-backs, when one the workers moved, the position was not filled and the second position was dropped.
"Right now we're in a bind," Director Donna Graham said. "We have no one to work here."

In 1969, three balseros — Cuban refugees — paddled a makeshift raft made of tractor tires, old pipes and wooden planks through the crystal clear cays of Cuba's northern coast.
Many people who had made this trip disappeared, died from the sharks or were just never seen again, said Raúl D. Garmas, a resident of Copperas Cove, as he recounted his life as a Cuban dissident.

Critic scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more favorable reviews.
This two-ton prestige pic won't win the hearts of highbrow critics or those averse to door-slamming, plate-smashing, top-of-the-lungs histrionics, but as a faithful filmed record of Letts' play, one could have scarcely hoped for better. Read full review
For those who appreciate fiery dialogue delivered by fine actors, August: Osage County is heaven-sent. Read full review
A vastly enjoyable theatrical banquet, if perhaps not a profound one, is served up in a bit of a rush here, as if they can't wait to get the next sitting in. But you certainly don't come away feeling hungry. Read full review
Family dysfunction has seldom been as flamboyant—or notable for its performances and flow of language—as it is in this screen version of the Tracy Letts play. Read full review
August: Osage County is easier to watch on screen, and maybe for that we should be grateful. Read full review
So, no, August: Osage County isn't all that original, and sometimes it's just a lot of yelling. But it does rouse itself to a powerful fury every so often, and Letts knows an audience's dirty little secret: We love the bloodlust of a family feeding on itself. Read full review
The brilliant screenplay by Mr. Letts sets up the narrative story of the Weston clan in a carefully constructed series of episodes in which the family history is finally revealed. There's great acting in every frame, but by the end of the ordeal, the viewer may be too exhausted to care. Read full review
If the boozy epic confrontations of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" or "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" are your definition of a good time, then this is the place to be. Read full review
A distinctly uneven but imminently watchable theatrical showcase in which cinematic and stagy devices go head to head with no clear winner. Read full review
It's Roberts' deepest, strongest, liveliest film work. Read full review
Parents need to know that August: Osage County is an intense drama about a dysfunctional family and the chaos that erupts in the wake of a suicide that triggers several difficult revelations. There are several bitter arguments as an Oklahoma family's deepest secrets are revealed, along with healthy doses of profanity (including "f--k" and "c--t"), drinking, and smoking. Adultery, incest, and attempted sexual assault are part of the overall story. The main character pops prescription pills like jelly beans and one middle-aged man smokes pot with a teenage girl.
Families can talk about how the movie depicts family. Does any part of the story feel familiar to you? Do you notice anything about this fictional family that seems more or less realistic than other families in movies?
What is harder to endure: a movie packed with unrealistic gun violence or a film like this, full of family tension and bitterness? What kind of movie is more satisfying?

PCC rejects Bell Pottinger's complaint against Bureau investigation
Bureau vindicated in its use of undercover filming to expose the 'dark arts' of lobbying.
Exposed: the revolving doors of Parliament
Dozens of MPs who left the House of Commons at the last election have taken jobs in organisations which are involved in lobbying and have been given passes that give them privileged access to Parliament.
Research by the Bureau, and published in the Independent, found around one in five of the 79 MPs who have applied for Former Member Passes after the 2010 election now work for companies or organisations with a possible interest in influencing current MPs. Several have done work for lobbying firms.
There are currently 326 former MPs who hold Former Member's passes, allowing them to book restaurants with family in the Palace of Westminster, informally meet MPs and bring guests into the House of Commons. The current system was set up by the former speaker Michael Martin in 2004 as a means of allowing former MPs to keep up with friends in Parliament after they left.
But the system is open to criticism. The Parliamentary authorities keep no record of who they allow into Westminster or bookings made in their name – although the use of the passes for lobbying is explicitly forbidden.
Unlike serving MPs, journalists, and Parliamentary support staff that also have access to Parliament there is no need for the former MPs to declare their business interests.
There is no suggestion that any of those former MPs who hold ex-member passes have misused them in any way – but there is a lack of transparency about the outside interests of those who hold them.
Read all the Bureau's work on Lobbying.
Last night Labour called for a register of interests to be established for ex MPs with passes in response to the Bureau's findings.
Former MPs
Among those with ex-member passes who left at the last election are former ministers including Alan Milburn and Patricia Hewitt.
Mr Milburn, who set up AM Strategy before he left Westminster to handle his 'media and consultancy work', has also worked for PepsiCo, Bridgepoint, and Lloyd Pharmacy, according to the Register of Members Interests when he was still an MP.
However, since he left the House of Commons in 2010 there is no record of his private business work despite the fact he still has access to parts of Parliament.
Last night Mr Milburn said he was now a 'private citizen' and did not want to comment on the issue.
The former Health Secretary Patricia Hewitt is now chair of the UK India Business Council and is also on the board of Eurotunnel.
Before she left the Commons she was recorded describing to undercover reporters the ways in which ministers could be lobbied. Yesterday attempts to contact her through the UKIBC failed.
Another former minister Richard Caborn now works on behalf of high value UK manufacturing – promoting their interests to ministers, Whitehall and Parliamentarians.
He said there was nothing wrong with having an ex-MPs pass but backed moves to makes the system more transparent.
'I am very proud of what I do and would have no problem at all with lobbying on behalf of our high tech manufacturing industry,' he said. 'But I would back moves for a register as it would make things more transparent.'
Related story: Former MPs – where are they now?
Another MP who left Parliament in 2010, who still has access to the House of Commons is Andrew Dismore, a former Labour MP who is the co-ordinator of the Access to Justice Action Group.
AJAG is campaigning against the Government cuts to legal aid and is partly supported and funded by the legal industry.
On the business connections website LinkedIn Mr Dismore promotes himself as 'an expert on parliamentary procedure especially promoting and blocking Private Members' Bills.' He adds that he has a 'detailed understanding of how to influence government and parliamentarians.'
Last night Mr Dismore said he had not done anything wrong, was entirely open about his involvement with AJAG and would also welcome the establishment of a register. 'I believe the more transparency the better. In fact when I applied for the pass I asked if there was a register and was told there wasn't one which surprised me.'
Another passholder is Nigel Waterson, the former Conservative MP for Eastbourne, who was listed as a consultant for the lobbying firm Butler Kelly on the August lobbying register.
When contacted through Butler Kelly he said: 'I am careful to follow the House rules about not using my pass when visiting the house in a lobbying capacity.'
His former Parliamentary colleague the Labour MP Parmjit Dhanda is also listed as a consultant for Butler Kelly. He also had a pass after the election but has subsequently given it up.
Among other members who left the House of Commons in 2010 who are listed as having ex members passes are Jane Kennedy who was listed on the August APPC register as a consultant. Ms Kennedy said it had been in connection for some work she had done on High Speed Rail.
She said she had never used her pass for business purposes. 'I use it mostly for seeing friends apart from during the No2Av campaign and I make no apology for that. But I have never used it for business purposes.'
Official meetings between departmental ministers and lobbyists would usually be registered in the hospitality records of governmental department.
However, parliamentary passes allow holders access to various sites within parliament, including three restaurants they can book for lunch on varying days of the week.
Related story: Members' Passes explained
Lifetime privilege
Some MPs with passes have not been MPs for over 20 years.
Geoffrey Lawler, the former Conservative MP, was left parliament back in 1987 and went on to found The Public Affairs Company, a government and parliamentary relations consultancy. He is also on the board of Directors of Keene Public Affairs and still holds a Commons pass.
On their website clients of the Public Affairs Company tell of the agency's success stories. The engineering group PM Group Plc said, 'Your strategy gave politicians the confidence in our case needed to bring about policy change. Your expertise helped turn the political tide in favour of our case.'
Last night Mr Lawler said: 'When I have to go into Parliament for any reason to do with my work I do not use my former member's pass, but get a visitor's pass.'
Need for transparency
Last night, Jon Trickett, the shadow Cabinet Office Minister, said: 'Lobbying in itself is not wrong but it needs to be done in an open transparent way. I believe ex-MPs who have access to Parliament should declare their outside interests in a register – like MPs and others who work in Westminster already do.'
Tamsin Cave from the Alliance for Lobbying Transparency told the Bureau: 'Lobbyists trade on their insider knowledge and privileged access. The industry is riddled with ex-MPs, ministers, civil servants, advisers and former colleagues. A Parliamentary pass gives privileged access to politicians, which means that many are free to roam around Parliament, brushing shoulders with politicians, having a quiet word in their ear, away from public scrutiny. This must not be allowed to continue.'
A spokeswoman for the Commissioner for Parliamentary Standards John Lyon said: 'The commissioner is looking into the rules around lobbying next year and this maybe something which he wishes to consider.'
Bureau vindicated in its use of undercover filming to expose the 'dark arts' of lobbying.
Powerful MPs' committee says government lobbying plans should be redrafted or scrapped.

Fake Tourists Catch Cheats
From The Guardian, Prague police have declared war on cheating taxi-cab drivers by unleashing an army of fake tourists to flush out the cheats.

Heh heh. I didn't know that. And I'm in Prague. I wonder if the fake tourists are getting paid - I obviously have some spare time to comment! I'd just dress in my American second-cousin's sports jersey and blue jeans, and get paid to go around saying "Oh, hello taxi driver I want to go to Orloj*"

Munchlax 135 / 85 / 40 / 40 / 85 / 5 Abilities: Pickup Thick Fat Gluttony Notable moves: Curse Body Slam Toxic Protect Rest Sleep Talk Whirlwind Munchlax is an interesting Pokemon, but it seems outclassed as a Special Wall by Lickilicky, but it isn't always the case. Munchlax gets Thick Fat and Eviolite, making him a great Special Wall as it can take a lot of hits. It can even try to go Offensive with Curse, although it'll need a lot of boosts to be able to take strong Physical hits.
Yeah, I'm very exicted for the Munchlax drop, probably even more so than the other 2. With Munchlax and Musharna, they will form a very good walling combination, with all of the physical hits that threaten munchlax can be handled pretty well with musharna, while all special attackin pokes cannot really touch Munchlax. I think the biggest hit in nu on the special side against munchlax is 48-55% from a choice specs focus blast gardevoir, so i think munchlax will be a very reliable special wall. Plus, musharna can heal bell rests off of munchlax if needed. I think i might go with toxic/ rest/ whirlwind/ body slam or return as opposed to the standard set, but not sure. Problem with this set, unlike the most infamous 2 man wall core (alomomonguss) is the weakness to hazards, which might be more prevalent with scolipede.
"as a Special Wall by Lickilicky, who can phaze, has Body Slam" "Notable moves: Stockpile Body Slam Toxic Protect Rest Sleep Talk Whirlwind" Derp. Anyway, this guy has finally dropped from RU, just to pull a stoutland and never be used here. Hopefully. I can see more psychic types running psyshock because of this thing, but that's about all the impact it will have on the metagame imo.
Munchlax is definitely going to be one of the more controversial drops this month. He was almost unanimously regarded as one of the worst Pokemon in his former tier, and for quite a few reasons. Despite Munchlax's absurd special bulk with Eviolite, its Defense was pitiable, it didn't have reliable recovery, it couldn't provide residual damage, and it lacked any form of real team support apart from phazing: a talent that proved nearly feckless in a tier FULL of right-off-the-bat physical hard hitters such as Entei, Escavalier, and Poliwrath. It seems as though Munchlax was built for thwarting Special Sweepers via phazing, but was instead placed in a tier where Physical threats could easily pick Munchlax off and where special attackers could easily wear it down due to its lack of reliable recovery. With this in mind, one could easily say that Munchlax will do even worse in NU. One of the most ubiquitous and dangerous physical Pokemon in the tier is the Fighting-type Sawk, followed by Zangoose, Braviary, Kangaskhan, Gurdurr, and Sawsbuck, all of which commonly carry super-effective Fighting-type moves with which to nail Munchlax. However, set-up Special Sweepers (and even Special Sweepers in general) are perhaps even more popular than the latter. Munchlax is a complete stop to massive threats such as Musharna, Ludicolo, Special Samurott, Scarf Gardevoir, Gorebyss, and Exeggutor through its gigantic special bulk and ability to phaze. Because of this alone, Munchlax will be much more popular in NU than it was in RU. However, its lack of recovery, inability to cause residual damage, and bad Defense still hurts it a lot. In conclusion, Munchlax definitely has a niche in the current metagame but it dies to a lot of common physical threats, which makes it less notable overall. I'll probably try out Munchlax on a Stall team, as its walling ability is a huge boon to the playstyle.
I'm interested to see how Munchlax will fare in NU. It was absolutely atrocious in RU, mostly because most relevant special attackers carry Focus Blast. The other thing is that physical attackers are big and plentiful. That said, I do think Munchlax will very much be decent in NU, as not many special attackers can break through Munchlax, and he can also absorb sleep and phaze with Whirlwind (racking up hazard damage). I'm excited to try Misdreavus+Munchlax, with their great defensive synergy, not to mention they both like hazards, as Missy can spinblock, and Munchie can phaze and rack up the damage. I'll prolly try 'em in conjunction with Roselia or Garbodor; it'll be fun. Anyways, I'm sure it'll be decent.
One of the things Munchlax appreciates is hazard support because of his infamous phasing set. Therefore, for this less obvious reason, Munchlax fares better in NU because RU has way better spinners than NU. However, I still don't think Munchlax will be that good. It's pretty gimmicky and a lot of things can still beat it. However, I think ScraftyIsTheBest is on the right idea, as Munchlax brings opportunities for interesting new cores. I think the fact that Munchlax can wall things like Musharna, Ludicolo, Exeggutor, and Charizard will appeal to a good number of people, but again, it needs all 4 layers of hazards to really do much. Happy April Fools
I think Munchlax will be hard pressed to find a niche as a specially defensive Normal type alongside Lickilicky, who has Lefties, semi-reliable recovery, and Heal Bell in addition to being able to phaze. It does take special attacks better than Licky, though, thanks to Thick Fat and Evio, especially from the likes of Ludicolo.
He's right, change your op jcm and add curse to notable moves, far more interesting than stockpile imo. In fact, curse might seem like the most viable munchlax set. It's special bulk is so ridiculous, it can take several hits from even special samurott and with a curse or 2, it should be able to take some non-fighting hits on the physical side too. Although primeape now in the tier might seem like a terrible thing for curse munchlax, it might reduce the number of scarf rotoms that would normaly trick curse munchlax. Munchlax is definately the least interesting drop of the 4 but I still think it has some sort of potential in NU, I'll have to test it to confirm.
I'm using Munchlax as a Whirlwind user after i set up a bunch of entry hazards with Dwebble. Munchlax (M) @ Eviolite Trait: Thick Fat EVs: 4 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SDef Careful Nature - Body Slam - Whirlwind - Sleep Talk - Rest This thing is absolutely amazing. Once I get Stealth Rocks and at least one layer of spikes up, I can just spam Whirlwind and win. Muchlax I think outclasses Lickiliky because Munchlax can phase pokes that are behind a sub and uses an 100% accurate move, whereas if you can get a sub against Lickiliky, he can't phase you (that is, if you're bulky) and Dragon Tail might miss.
That is really Munchlax's best set. And you win if the team isn't carrying something that can OHKO Munchlax, which is a big stretch. And Sleep Talk is pretty unreliable, as you could very well end up with Rest again. That set is good, but Lickylicky has a lot of perks over it, like causing more damage, and some pretty recovery with Wish+Protect
I'm not sure if there's much that can OHKO this Munchlax set (at least as far as unboosted moves go, which considering it has whirlwind, is pretty useless). Maybe CB Sawk, but who uses that? Unless that was the point you were trying to make and I totally misread your post.
Personally I like using CB Sawk, it makes a great antilead, and can really punch holes through things while your opponent is trying to set up in the early stages of the game. I ran CB Sawk through the calculator out of curiosity: 252+ Atk Choice Band Sawk Close Combat vs. 0 HP / 252 Def Eviolite Munchlax: 552-650 (134.3 - 158.15%) -- guaranteed OHKO Then there's these guys: 252 Atk Sawk Close Combat vs. 0 HP / 252 Def Eviolite Munchlax: 338-398 (82.23 - 96.83%) -- guaranteed 2HKO There's a 62.5% chance of a 2HKO with CS Sawk after Munchlax switches into Stealth Rock, although why you would want to switch into that I have no idea. 252 Atk Primeape Close Combat vs. 0 HP / 252 Def Eviolite Munchlax: 300-354 (72.99 - 86.13%) -- guaranteed 2HKO I think as long as you carry something that can muscle through Munchlax's defenses, or have something with Taunt, or even lay down your own hazards it shouldn't be too much of an issue. Also Lickylicky isn't totaly outclassed by Muchlax. It has far more utility, being able to support the team with Heal Bell + Wish, as well as Phazing with Dragon Tail. It might only have 90 accuracy but there's always the chance Sleep Talk will select Rest instead of Whirlwind.
I think I could easily see a great core of Munchlax and Misdreavous. I've been testing it out and it works. Physically defensive Misdreavous walls all of Muchlaxes biggest threats, barring Golurk with Shadow Punch. Also you don't have to be asleep with Munchlax. You can totally spam Whirlwind while you're awake, so I'm not sure why you are assuming that Munchlax is asleep with this.
Really, Munchlax is definitely not something that I consider to be overwhelmingly good. Despite its bulk, it's not any better than Lickilicky which outclasses it. Lickilicky has access to Leftovers recovery and Wish over Rest, which is pretty good already, increasing the longevity of the Pokemon by a lot. Munchlax also won't be able to take many hits from the hard physical hitters in NU previously posted by other users. Munchlax isn't garbage though; it gets some interesting stuff such as it's really nice Special Defense, although a lot of Psychics gets Psyshock which you know ignores Special Defense. Munchlax isn't as good as phaser as other Pokemons though; due to it's lack of reliable recovery and I'm not so sure on relying on Sleep Talk when you could very easily die to a physical move. Despite Munchlax's sheer bulk, I will probably use Lickilicky in most of my teams.
Well with Jynx dropping, it does have a new niche, but I don't think it'll do too well. Probably better than Stoutland, though.

General Buddhism
Founded in India by Siddhartha Gautama, Buddhism has thrived in the East for more than 2,500 years—and has been steadily gaining adherents in the West in the last century or so. While our catalog offers many dharma books that spring from specific lineages, such as Tibetan Kagyu or Japanese Soto Zen, the books you'll find below offer a more general approach to the Buddhist view.

Living Beautifully
with Uncertainty and Change
We live in difficult times. Life sometimes seems like a roiling and turbulent river threatening to drown us and destroy the world. Why, then, shouldn't we cling to the certainty of the shore—to our familiar patterns and habits? Because, Pema Chödrön teaches, that kind of fear-based clinging keeps us from the infinitely more satisfying experience of being fully alive. The teachings she presents here—known as the "Three Commitments"—provide a wealth… Read More

It's a three-day weekend that promises to be filled with all things patriotic and some fun and games on the side.
Start your holiday weekend here in Williston with the "Freedom–Our Heritage and Our Future" parade at 5 p.m. The Honorable Judge Joseph Smith will be the grand marshal for the parade. At least 60 participants have committed to participating in the parade that runs its course east on Noble Avenue.
The Levy County Tourist Development Tax, paid by guests at hotels, motels, RV parks and other rental places with a six-month limit on occupancy, are dropping and the county Tourism Development Council has been forced to be choosy about where it spends the taxes.
In its meeting Thursday, June 25 to review grant applications for the November 2009 to October 2010 cycle, the council's first action was to drop applications from new events that had not complied with paperwork requirements or provided a budget.
Williston will become a patriotic extravaganza next week as the city and the surrounding area turns out to celebrate Independence Day a day early on Friday.
Festivities kick off with the "Freedom–Our Heritage and Our Future"–parade at 5 p.m. The Honorable Judge Joseph Smith will be the grand marshal for the parade that starts lining up between 4-4:30 p.m. on SW 3rd Street (the road between the Methodist Church and the high school parking lot).
Parade entry deadline is noon Wednesday, July 1 at city hall.
The Levy County Visitors Bureau met with area businesses in Cedar Key this week to discuss how the agency works to promote local tourism.
"I would like to make this an annual event – maybe in May with Tourism Week," said Carol McQueen, Executive Director of the Visitors Bureau. "We collect a tax and I think people want to know what we do with it."
Williston Police Chief Dan Davis told the city council Tuesday that about half a dozen warnings had been issued for running red lights in the city. The project, which is guided by Traffipax, has been a year and a half in the making. Davis said that he was satisfied with the flow of paperwork between Traffipax and the city.
It's been a point of dissent for many years for business owners in the center of Williston, and it came to a head at Monday evening's CRA meeting. Tempers flared and voices were raised.
The most recent conflict concerns the Ivy House, which has had angled parking across the street for many years, on city property, though the area has never been officially striped to accommodate vehicles and some visitors park on, and destroy, the grass.
Not coincidentally, some Ivy House customers park on the grass on the NW 1st Avenue side of the restaurant.
On Friday, July 3, Williston will celebrate Independence Day in hometown style. The annual parade will begin at 5 p.m. The parade theme is "Freedom–Our Heritage and Future."
Judge Joseph Smith will lead the parade as its grand marshal. The honor is given to Smith in appreciation for serving the community for so many years.
Following the parade, the gates at the Williston Horseman's Park will open at 6 p.m. with the opening ceremony beginning at 7 p.m. There is no admission fee to this event.
Superintendent Robert Hastings announced Tuesday the arrival of two newcomers to the Levy County School District.
"I don't mind telling you that I actively recruited Bill and Gina Tovine," Hastings said. The Tovines can help our students achieve great things, he said. "And that's what it's all about."
Dr. Gina Tovine will be the new assistant superintendent as of July 1. Bill Tovine will begin his duties as principal of Chiefland High School on June 25.
Juana Rae Buttler donates blood at Williston City Hall last Friday when the LifeSouth Bloodmobile came to town. Buttler has donated eight gallons of blood over the course of her life.
Due to press problems, the Williston Pioneer is running late reaching newsstands and subscribers. We appreciate your patience.

I have received a letter in the mail that Comcast cable has been served a subpoena in federal court, ordering that they supply my information for allegedly infringing copyrights on a company on the internet. They say that they will provide the court that information unless I file a protective motion to quash or vacate the Subpoena. What grounds can I file that motion? This is for court in Deleware and I live in Colorado. Is the fact that I live so far away a good enough reason? Or the fact that there were several people living at my residence at the time and I have no idea what they are talking about? (I dont even understand what a "bitorrent" is) Im not sure exactly how much trouble I am in I guess.
I would post this in DE as well. Even though Comcast is a Denver company, this obviously appears to be an out-of-state subpoena from DE out of either a criminal investigation or a civil case. Technically, Comcast can file a Motion to Quash the Subpoena. However, if you file a Motion to Quash the subpoena, what are the privacy interest grounds that you are going to seek protection for other than possible illegal conduct. You need to state why you have an expectation of privacy in cable service and internet service communications. Otherwise, the Court will error on the ground of at least inspecting the documents in chambers by the judge and the judge will determine if they are relevant to the investigation and can be disclosed.
You must file a Rule 45 (below) motion to quash and state your grounds for the motion such as ambiguous, untimely, etc. The fact that you live far away does not factor in here since this is a national company with computer records easily attained. Please consult with any attorney right now as these types of lawsuits about downloading content can get real mean real fast.

Roswell: Inconvenient Facts and the Will to BelieveFor over fifty years an incident near Roswell, New Mexico, has sparked the imaginations of UFO enthusiasts. Did the military recover a crashed "flying saucer" there, along with several extraterrestrial bodies? Has the government gone to great lengths to hide the evidence? Over time these speculations have reached the status of unquestionable truths in the minds of many ufologists. In this definitive study of the Roswell incident, longtime UFO researcher Karl T. Pflock-who is convinced that some UFO reports are real alien sightings-concludes, after an exhaustive investigation, that no alien craft or bodies were ever found at Roswell. Pflock admits at the outset that he too once strongly believed there might be something to the Roswell alien stories, and he describes how he then came to discover the whole truth. Using formerly classified records he proves that the U.S. government has absolutely no physical evidence of aliens, shows how critical weather data completely refute key claims of Roswell believers, and explains why the case now rises and falls on the testimony of just one witness, who cleverly manipulated leading investigators and continues to do so today. Pflock's intensive research and access to once-classified documents-including facsimilies of important formerly classified documents, 28 witness affidavits, and the entire Pratt-Marcel interview transcript-make this book must reading even for UFO buffs-believers and skeptics alike- who feel they know everything about Roswell. |

LibraryThing Review
User Review - LibraryThingAmazing feat of scholarship and investigative work. Absolutely demolishes the most famous UFO case that never happened. Written by a former "true-believer", does not succumb to dogmatic debunking. Instead of just saying "UFOs don't exist and anyone who says otherwise is an idiot" (i.e. Klass), Pflock actually painstakingly investigates every "eye-witness" claim for himself and the myth falls apart all by itself. True skepticism here, not just preaching of the non-believer gospel.
Review: Roswell: Inconvenient Facts and the Will to Believe
User Review - GoodreadsA balanced look at the Roswell story. The author said he wanted to believe, but there was no evidence except the witnesses, and there are plausible explanations for what they saw that fit.

Sachin has inspired generations: Gambhir
Out-of-favour opener Gautam Gambhir has showered praise on retiring legend Sachin Tendulkar
Kolkata: Lauding champion batsman Sachin Tendulkar's contribution, opener Gautam Gambhir on Friday said the Mumbaikar's career has encouraged generations of Indians to love the game.
"Sachin's contribution to Indian cricket cannot be expressed in words. He has inspired us and he will be inspiring next generations too," said Gambhir on the sidelines of a programme.
Tendulkar will play his 199th Test match in Eden Gardens before he bids adieu to international cricket at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai after playing his 200th Test.
When asked to share special moments that he shared with Sachin on and off the field, Gambhir said, "There are many such memories and it is really hard to pick up one."

Recycling Excess Heat From the Data Center 121
from the talkin'-'bout-my-generation dept.
Is pumping boiling water through pipes the most efficient way to heat houses? Isn't there a pretty massive heat loss in the pipes?
Having said that, if they are already using this system for heat, the introduction of waste heat from a datacenter seems to make a lot of sense. Acts as a heat sink for the data center, reduces the amount of energy needed to heat the water.
Its not the most efficient way, but often it is the most practical and economical.
Also, if the pipe breaks, then its not really that bad of a cleanup.
Yeah I read too fast. Although when I was a kid I used to have a Finnish pen pal in Turku. She stopped writing.
No wonder she stopped writing if you thought that Helsinki is in Sweden. We do have a hate / love relationship with the Swedes.
There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX. We don't believe this to be a coincidence. -- Jeremy S. Anderson

Fray Bentos Just Chicken Pie
Date: 09/05/13
Advantages: easy to prepare
Disadvantages: smells bad, tastes bland, not enough pastry, generally a sorry looking sight once served
Well what can I say, I'm a sucker for anything that looks like a bargain and I was tempted to try one of these pies after spotting them in my local Poundland. Of course I paid just £1.00, and from what I've seen supermarket prices can vary from between £2.00 and £3.00.
This product is essentially just a pie, in a tin. Cooking instructions are printed on the underside of the tin, so I made sure to check these first and set my oven to the necessary time and temperature before opening the tin. Unlike others have remarked in previous reviews, I had no problems in removing the lid. It was very easy to prepare this pie, as all I had to do was open the tin and then place it in the oven with a baking tray underneath. The baking tray is a very good idea as I found that while it was cooking some of the gravy had bubbled up over the sides of the tin and spilled out, which would have left a nasty mess at the bottom of my oven if the tray hadn't been there to catch it.
I chose this pie as kind of a compromise, as my housemate and I take it in turns to cook dinner for each other. I really dislike gravy, and he really dislikes white sauce, so I decided to brave it and try this pie anyway. The pie has a plain chicken filling with gravy and is covered in a puff pastry top. I was a little disappointed as I LOVE pastry and thought it was a shame that the pie did not have a proper crust all the way round and on the bottom, especially as this made it very difficult to serve. I attempted to first cut the pie in half before dishing it up. As soon as I started cutting into it the pastry completely deflated and lost all of the lovely light and airy texture that it had after I removed it from the oven. After cutting it I then had to basically scoop out the pie and spoon out all of the filling as there was nothing to hold it in place due to the skimpy amount of pastry only covering the top. This looked pretty awful and combined with the smell of gravy I found it to appear most unappetising. There is something about gravy that I just really dislike, I think it's partly the way that it engulfs everything else on your plate and ruins the texture making everything go soggy, and partly because the smell reminds me of cat food. The pie had a real heavy stink to it, which was coming from the gravy as none of the other ingredients have any strong noticeable smell to them. Unwilling to waste food, I soldiered on and served up my meal which consisted of this Just Chicken pie accompanied by mashed potatoes and peas.
Upon tasting the pie, my fears were confirmed. This was a complete waste of time! I thought that the pieces of chicken looked decidedly ropey and were not at all tender. The gravy started to soak in to the pastry making it go soggy. Because of the lack of vegetables or other ingredients to bulk out the filling, the serving size looked and felt quite insubstantial and I can expect that some people would not be happy with a half-tin portion unless there were enough extras to go with it and make a more balanced meal. There was practically no flavour at all that I could taste, and it came across as being very bland. The only redeeming feature is that the pie is very convenient being tinned, as you can store it in your kitchen cupboard and have it waiting for when you want to prepare a simple meal. There is barely any effort involved in preparation and cooking, but this comes across in the results and I don't think it's a match for a proper fresh pie in any way. My housemate was equally unimpressed with this offering (although grateful for my "efforts" in cooking!) and didn't even finish eating it so the cats ended up with the leftovers. I can't recommend this and certainly won't be purchasing it again.

payday loans
United States
Member since February 18, 2012
Payday Advance Loans are near future cash advance typically lasting for any period of between 1 and 45 days. Most of these loans are an alternative to other forms of credit score like bank overdrafts, plastic cards or loans. The gap between a payday loans no brokers and various kinds of consumer credit isn't a lot charges but the gap or quantity of the money - while easy may last decades, a payday loans no brokers typically lasts only until the following payday. It is possible to secure cash advance loans to a importance of £1,500 however what you can borrow depends solely for your status like a borrower, your previous credit standing and as well the amount of reputation you could have by using a particular lender (you may boost the power of your reputation by lending from a particular company more frequently, this will generally entitle you to borrow more) payday loans no brokers.
payday loans no brokers typically amalgamate all of the offerings from well-established payday lenders all one site make money through offering these loan products to customers or visitors on their site. payday loans no brokers sometimes use what is known as a ping tree system - it allows borrowers the opportunity to send one pay day loan application to multiple lenders in the course of one payday cash loan application form. The 1st lender to just accept the application will be granted charge and also the pay day loan application will continue being sent through the system until one lender picks it payday loans no brokers.
payday loans no brokers are helpful inside respect they maximise the chance that you will end up accepted to get a payday cash advance. It works just like the law of averages, the harder cash advance payday loan companies to which you apply then the higher the likelihood your payday loans no brokers application are going to be accepted. However, it is wise to remember there aren't any guarantees when it comes to payday lending - occasionally borrowers just will never be viable be lent money and instances like these the applicant's application will never be selected by way of lender. The chief disadvantage to using cash advance brokers will be the possibility that you end up with a lender in places you will not have a complete idea on everything that's paying - before signing an advance payday loan application you should ensure you have read the terms and condition on a lender's website.
