After years of training to become the Registered Nurse that I have been for several years, I started to pay attention to a nagging thought in the back of my mind: Something very important is missing in our current health system. We need to focus on prevention and not on treatments.
When I was in Medical College I was taught that in aim to heal illness we need to find the cause of illness and remove what's causing it. However, much to my surprise today's medicine focuses mainly on treating symptoms and the pharmaceutical industry has a vested interest in keeping you sick. The drug industry is focused on handling symptoms rather than dealing with the root cause of our health problems. Continued treatments and not ultimate cures has, unfortunately become the goal.
Think about it. If no one was sick, the drug companies would go out of business.
Have you ever noticed how many drug commercials come on television within just a few hours? For every pain, aliment, or symptom, there is a drug. The pharmaceutical industry does not hesitate at all to suggest them. The media is full of advertisements that insist that taking drugs is the answer for every health problem.
An interview with a former Vice President of Glaxosmithkline (major pharmaceutical company) in the United Kingdom Science Editor revealed a surprising truth. Less than half the patients prescribed the most expensive drugs actually benefited from them. Over 90% of drugs made to treat symptoms work in only 30%-50% of those to take them.
Drugs are not the answer. There are so many drugs on the market today that don't get tested beside the "test" that takes place when you are taking them yourself. It is really a "hit or miss" gamble when you are just dealing with symptoms and not the cause of the problems. The Chicago Sun Times reported in 2002 that 20% of all drugs have serious side effects. This is besides the fact that we now know that most drugs don't even work in most people.
We each have to take responsibility for our own health. The drug industry has a vested interest in keeping you sick and will allow the chemicals to continue to go into our food, water and air supplies. It is time to focus on our wellness.
The only way that you can take charge of your health is prevention and to seek cures, rather than treatment for symptoms. Focus on the root causes of your health problems, and don't just turn to medicines that probably won't help anyway.
Seeing what I have seen in my long nursing practice, I have been determined to do my own research. I have read many books and have attended many workshops on alternative healing, meditation, hypnotic therapies, super mind and energy healing. During my learning journey I have discovered what conventional medicine could not teach me and I now understand that everything in life is connected.
It is so clear to me that we need to learn to understand the bonds between humans, spirits, and nature. I have also realized that our illness and our healing alike are directly connected to the weakness or strength of our relationships, and the health in every aspect of our lives. Our body, mind, environment, and relationships all matter and require careful attention.
I think that in our very busy society, we do not pay enough attention to the needs of our bodies. We need to nourish it correctly and give it proper exercise, but don't always do so. Thus, we have an epidemic of obesity, starting in children.
With regard to our minds, we do not take enough care which is necessary to preserve the health of our minds. We live in a fast paced environment with e-mail, internet, microwaves, cell phones and so many other things coming at us so quickly, and we are just supposed to keep up. We are ever driven to be more productive, sometimes at the expense of our own sanity and well-being. This can make us unhappy. Unhappiness will present itself in the body somewhere along the way. For optimal well-being, we should nourish ourselves physically, mentally, and spiritually and pay careful attention to our relationships, especially to raising our children.
I am a strong promoter of meditation and of many Eastern philosophies, including ancient healing modalities. Meditation has been extremely helpful in my own life. I also believe strongly in the work of psychotherapists, hypnotherapy to help heal the wounds of the past, which I think are at the core of many illnesses.
We need to integrate the care of the body with the care of the mind so that we can develop an understanding of how they work together. The faster we do this, the faster we will understand true healing.

A major league baseball player hits a home run with a wedding proposal, and he gets an assist from a dolphin.
Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Alex Cobb had a sign placed on a dolphin's buoy that read, "Kelly, will you marry me?"
When the dolphin swam up to Kelly and opened up its smiley mouth, Kelly said yes, and, as FOX 29's Karen Hepp noted, turned completely magenta with love.
Cobb's proposal took place at "Discovery Cove" in Orlando.
Later, Cobb still followed tradition and got down on one knee with a ring. Kelly got a double proposal, basically.

The Village Bottoms Open House: an interview Duane Deterville of the Village Bottoms Cultural District
by Minister of Information JR
M.O.I. JR: What is the Village Bottoms Cultural District about? When and what is the open house about?
Duane: Village Bottoms Cultural District is a movement to uplift the historically Black neighborhood in West Oakland formerly known as "the bottoms." We're based on several blocks of Pine Street between Eighth and 12th streets. The Village Bottoms is the continuation, in the face of rampant gentrification, of the cultural legacy that Black folks brought with them from Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and other Southern locales in the '30s and '40s while fleeing the domestic terrorism of the KKK and white citizens' councils.
Our predecessors were seeking a new future here out West working in the shipyards. They brought a style of blues with them that developed into West Oakland Blues and created a great cultural district, just walking distance from Pine Street, on Seventh Street. These dynamic Black folks brought enough self-determined energy that they produced great historical figures such as CL Dellums, co-founder of the Pullman Porters, and Huey P. Newton, co-founder of the Black Panther Party. Both organized and worked in West Oakland's neighborhood now known as the Village Bottoms.
M.O.I. JR: What are the Soul Food Co-op, the Black Dot Cafe and the Juju Shop? What is their connection to each other?
Duane: These three businesses are part of the plan for economic, cultural and spiritual self-sustainability envisioned by culture worker Marcel Diallo. All three of these businesses are located in the Cannery Lofts on Pine Street. The Soul Food Co-op is a natural food store specializing in produce. Some of the produce comes from the Village Bottoms Farm located just one block from the store.
Marcel and his group of ritual theater and spoken word artists known as The Black Dot Collective founded the Black Dot Café in 1998 in the Fruitvale District. The current Black Dot Café is continuing that legacy by making a cultural space that is conducive to political organizing, creative self-expression and economic sustainability.
Café culture has long been the location of radical intellectualism and Black Dot has continued that tradition with speakers such as Carlos Moore, Amiri Baraka and Cynthia McKinney all speaking at our location. Creative self-expression happens because there are art shows, spoken word artists and musicians that perform and network in the café. The economic sustainability comes from people purchasing fine espresso and vegan snacks while they enjoy the Black Dot Café experience.
The Juju Shop, which is called Mganga Diallo's House of Common Sense, is a botanica, reading room and used bookshop that carries the spiritual sustainability aspect of the cultural district that I mentioned earlier. Spiritual practitioners can purchase their incense, candles and other items at the Juju shop.
M.O.I. JR: What is becoming a friend of the Black New World about? Why is this necessary?
Duane: The Black New World is a social aide and pleasure club with a performance space located at 836 Pine St. It has hosted performances by the Hot Eight Brass Band, Linton Kwesi Johnson, Dwight Trible and Amiri Baraka, amongst others. Two years ago I produced the Sacred Jazz Symposium that had members of the John Coltrane Church performing and Rev. Franzo King on the panel discussion.
Anyone who wants to support our efforts as a cultural district can do so by becoming a friend of the Black New World. You can do this by going to the website http://www.blacknewworld.com/ and donating a minimum of 10 dollars a month. It will put you on our mailing list and you can be informed whenever we have dynamic performers come to our venues. People always ask how they can support us and this is currently the best way that you can do so.
M.O.I. JR: Who will be speaking at the Black Dot Cafe in the beginning of November?
Duane: We will be honored to host the legendary Amiri Baraka on Nov. 7 to celebrate his 75th birthday and on Nov. 8, POCC activist Chairman Fred Hampton Jr. will be speaking about the murder of his father, the legendary Black Panther Fred Hampton, by Chicago Police.
M.O.I. JR: How do people get in touch with you?
Duane: We can be reached via our Facebook account Legendary Black Dot Café or the website http://www.blacknewworld.com/.
Email POCC Minister of Information JR, Bay View associate editor, at email@example.com and visit www.blockreportradio.com.

West Oaklander
Diallo is not who this article says he is.
The Village Bottoms has some dark secrets.↓
The Minister of Information
Best believe COINTELPRO, is in full effect. Any time Black people do something for themselves you get these anonymous racist haters who are allied with the NAZI BAY EXPRESS, who want to "drain the bay" of its Black and Brown people. The Village Bottoms may have some financial problems, but so does the rest of Amerikkka, whites included. The NAZI BAY EXPRESS has a long history of attacking Black people period, and especially those that are productive. So if you are a NAZI too, stand behind your beliefs and put your real name out there or we will erase comments from this website.↓
Oh my god!
My friend posted on here under a pseudonym because he's scared of crazy retaliation. And you just said a whole bunch of crazy stuff, and demanded he stop using a pseudonym. and then YOU SIGNED YOUR OWN COMMENT WITH A PSEUDONYM!↓
Duane Deterville
I've noticed that most of these racists like "jason" don't have the courage to put their real names with their comments. Typical paranoid racist gentrification newbies. They believe that black folks are trying to kill them when in fact we have never had a history of such things. However, we can recount the history of our communities being destroyed and our people murdered by white folks in masks. The history of Tulsa Oklahoma's Black Wall Street and Rosewood Florida are just two of the thousands of examples. Now we have white racist cowards that hide behind internet pseudonyms instead of white hoods while they destroy our communities and accuse US of violence against them.By the way "jason" EVERYBODY knows that JR is the POCC Minister of Information. You must not have been in the neighborhood long enough to know that. LOL!↓
Jeremy Olm
It is a good movement to get all members participating in one event where everybody is able to share opinions and exchange concepts and ideas about how to better manage their situation. All they wish to do is to ensure that their heritage remains preserved and they need to have their voices heard in order to let that happen. Such an open house event is a good initiative whereby people get together in a very cozy manner and feel at home. I am sure this event can also act as a platform to provide business opportunities to the participants like for the estate agents, businessmen, advisors and lots more.↓

Embarkation at Southampton went very smoothly and preference was made for scooter and wheelchair users. The balcony cabin was a good size, big enough for the scooter but the balcony, although large, was very dark due to the top being covered by the deck above. Very little daylight.
The cabin steward, Rony, was excellent and tried his best to find me a stool for the shower to no avail. Being disabled it is hard for me to stand in theses small showers.
Having had Neurovirus on board on the previous sailing the use of hand wash was enforced during the first few days but seemed to rely on passengers to do it voluntary with no supervision after that. Resultently it reappeared during the cruise.
The food and service was excellent up to Xmas Eve but seemed to fall apart after that. Fortunately we elected to dine in the Sindu restaurant on Xmas Day and had a marvellious meal. The passengers who used the dining rooms were not as fortunate. Poor service and shortages in the various courses.
The atmosphere on Xmas Day was like a morgue. Other than a show for the children on board and the officers putting on a bit of a panto in the theatre for an hour there was no further evidence of Xmas spirit. We expected Carol singers to circulate around the ship. No such luck. In the Atrium they were giving a Samba lesson for half an hour after lunch. That was it.
The waiting staff, in the dining rooms and cafes and bars took all the time to crack a smile. The entertainment, on the whole, was good. Only one bad comedian spoilt it.
Disembarkation was smooth enough. Last time with P&O I'm afraid.

Government Law
Alaska Lawmakers Release 'Troopergate' Report Criticizing Gov. Sarah Palin
Posted Oct 10, 2008 8:50 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
After meeting in closed session for much of the day, an Alaska legislative committee released an investigative report concluding that Gov. Sarah Palin abused her power by trying to get her former brother-in-law fired from his job as a state trooper.
The report states that "Gov. Palin knowingly permitted a situation to continue where impermissible pressure was placed on several subordinates in order to advance a personal agenda," according to CNN.
"The bipartisan Legislative Council, which commissioned the investigation after (state public safety commissioner Walt) Monegan was fired, unanimously adopted the 263-page public report after a marathon executive session Friday," the news agency writes. "About 1,000 more pages of documents compiled during the inquiry will remain confidential," according to the council's chairman, state Sen. Kim Elton.
Lawmakers considered four options, according to CBC News: "Release the lengthy report, recommend the case be closed, have another committee continue to probe the matter, or hand it over to criminal investigators."
"Lawmakers closed the session because the report was considered attorney work product," notes the Associated Press, in an article written before the report was made public.
As discussed in previous ABAJournal.com posts, the so-called Troopergate controversy centers on whether Palin abused her authority by firing the state public safety commissioner after he allegedly resisted pressure from the governor's office to fire her former brother-in-law, who continues to work as a state trooper. The issue took on national import after Palin was selected as the Republican nominee for vice president.

Dawson Community College Phi Theta Kappa
The Alpha Xi Epsilon chapter of the Phi Theta Kappa National Honor Society was chartered March 1, 1988 at Dawson Community College. Bylaws were accepted on January 1, 1992.
On the National level
According to the official Phi Theta Kappa web site, "Phi Theta Kappa traces its beginnings to a Society that originated with six charter members under the name of Kappa Phi Omicron at Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri, in 1910. At a meeting of the presidents of the Missouri junior colleges for women in 1918, it was decided to organize a new honorary society, chapters of which would have a common character, stand, and similarity of organization." The name Phi Theta Kappa was adopted at that time. In 1926, Phi Theta Kappa expanded its reaches to colleges outside of Missouri. In 1929, the American Association of Community Colleges recognized Phi Theta Kappa as the official Honor Society for two year colleges.
The founders modeled the Society after the Senior Honor Society, Phi Beta Kappa. The name "Phi Theta Kappa" was taken from the initial letters of the three Greek words meaning "wisdom", "aspiration", and "purity".

Thanks to a grant, 7 schools in the Hattiesburg Public School District are eating healthier.
"We're just real excited that our students have the opportunity to expand their usage, their consumption, of fruits and vegetables several days a week because we know those students didn't get some of the items we serve at school at home on a regular basis," HPSD Nutrition Director Stephanie Hoze said.
The US Dept. of Health gave the HPSD a $150,000 grant that allows them to serve fresh fruits and vegetables to students outside of the regular meals three days a week.
This week's fruits at Hawkins Elementary are tangerines, pears and pomegranate.
Hoze said this program helps combat obesity rates by teaching kids healthy eating habits while they're young.
"It's like a extra thing that you have to do, so sometimes when you're short staffed, it is hard to get it out," Hawkins Elementary Child Nutrition Manager said Terri Adams said, "But in essence you have to remember that it's not about you. It's not about what's going on in your school. It's about the children and their needs, so sometimes you have to go above and beyond the call of duty to get it out."

Recently at Hampton University, seven students were punished for distributing anti-Bush flyers without the approval of the university administration. As discussed in FIRE's Guide to Free Speech on Campus, private universities generally have broad discretion when establishing policies that restrict speech on campus. But this power is not always unchecked.
State constitutions usually take a back seat when we discuss civil liberties, but some state courts have interpreted their constitutions to guarantee more freedom than the U.S. Constitution. Hampton administrators should read Article I, Section 12, of the Constitution of Virginia, which states in part:
That the freedoms of speech and of the press are among the great bulwarks of liberty, and can never be restrained except by despotic governments; that any citizen may freely speak, write, and publish his sentiments on all subjects….
Hampton officials would be wise to heed this extraordinarily strong language. Although the Virginia courts have not, at present, applied this right to students at private universities, Hampton may still find someday that it must legally provide its students with some free speech rights. Both the Pennsylvania and New Jersey courts have applied freedom of speech guarantees in their state constitutions to private colleges and universities, and California has guaranteed freedom of speech on private campuses through the famous Leonard Law.
Even though Hampton may not have a legal obligation to provide its students with freedom of speech, it still should keep in mind that universities benefit enormously from the free and open exchange of ideas. Freedom of speech is more than just a constitutional clause—it is a fundamental component of human liberty upon which this country was founded.
Free speech and the marketplace of ideas are basic tenets on which higher education was founded. Although private universities have the right to ignore this and suppress speech in the name of some other purpose, universities that claim to honor free speech should be bastions of free and unfettered debate and discussion—not the home of despotic administrators who arbitrarily punish unpopular speech. Hampton University should be no exception.

Real Reason Xmas/Holiday/Winter Break is when it is
Original post made by UnderTheBus on Dec 16, 2011

I am a parent of school age children and I have no opinion of when the winter break occurs, it doesn't affect me in the least, but I do understand both sides of the argument. I'm confused by your statement above. We do not have 3 consecutive day's off this year. The only Monday's we are out of school are 12/26 and 1/2 we are back the following monday on 1/9. The only occasion I remember have 3 Monday's off is when New Years Day lands on a Sunday, then we typically have the following Monday off. But that's not the case this year.
on Dec 16, 2011 at 1:24 pm
Thank You for catching my error. I was on a call while typing. I should have proofed before I hit the submit key. I am red-in-the-face.
The Holiday Break must encompass 3 Sundays, not Mondays.

Thanks for clarifying.

DOWN WITH THE TEACHERS!!!!! They cause all problems for everything. I was laid off and it was my high school teacher's fault. My electricity was turned off because I forgot to pay my bill and it was my middle school teacher's fault. I ran out of gas and it was my elementary teacher's fault.
Or I forgot to voice my opinion at a school board meeting and am now looking for a scapegoat. That's probably more likely.
on Dec 16, 2011 at 3:52 pm
I agree with "Down". I heard a rumor this morning that teachers have caused a problem with sugar beet production on Easter Island!
on Dec 16, 2011 at 7:29 pm
Parents, teach your children to respect their teachers and value the education they are getting in Pleasanton. Someone wrote that their kids won't be able to stay late at their friends Christmas parties or may not have time to bake cookies. seriously? Stop whining and deal with it.

Baldwin & Lyons Inc. Stock Downgraded (BWINB)
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Baldwin & Lyons (Nasdaq:BWINB) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from buy to hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth and largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including deteriorating net income, disappointing return on equity and poor profit margins. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- BWINB's revenue growth has slightly outpaced the industry average of 5.0%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 13.6%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- BWINB's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.03 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels.
- BALDWIN & LYONS's earnings per share declined by 46.4% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has reported a trend of declining earnings per share over the past two years. However, the consensus estimate suggests that this trend should reverse in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, BALDWIN & LYONS swung to a loss, reporting -$1.90 versus $1.68 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($1.50 versus -$1.90).
- The gross profit margin for BALDWIN & LYONS is currently extremely low, coming in at 11.00%. It has decreased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 7.60% trails that of the industry average.
- Net operating cash flow has decreased to $9.70 million or 23.21% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing the cash generation rate to the industry average, the firm's growth is significantly lower.

< Return to Reconnaissance SystemThis tutorial is about our aircraft reconnaissance product for Google Earth. When a mission is active, or for missions we have archived, you will find some of the following symbols, all of which are clickable.
|A round white circle with a number in it represents a vortex message with the pressure, in millibars, located in the circle. You can click this icon to view a decoded vortex message which contains mostly information about the center of the storm.
|This is a picture of a dropsonde. A dropsonde is released from the aircraft to sample such things as wind, temperature, and pressure. You can click this icon to view a decoded dropsonde message, which contains the previous mentioned things at different levels between the aircraft and sea surface. A dropsonde diagram is also available in the popup window which displays most of the data in the tables in a visual way.
|A pair of binoculars represent a RECCO message, a "REConnaissance COde" message, which has information that is observed by a person onboard the plane. You can click this icon to view a decoded RECCO message.
|HDOB messages are usually transmitted every 30 seconds. For each observation within an HDOB message, usually there are 20 observations per HDOB message, you will see a wind barb that represents wind direction and speed. Learn about how to decode a wind barb here. The winds barbs to the left, from left to right, represent 5 knots, 10 knots, and 65 knots. All of them to the left note that the wind direction is from 0 degrees, or from the north. It means that if you were facing north, the wind would be hitting you in the face. Wind speed is also noted by color for our recon product in Google Earth.
|This is an example of what the menu in the left column will look like. One the Google Earth network link opens, "Do not display any missions" will be selected. This is because I don't want to use bandwidth loading a mission you may not want to view. When there are multiple storms, it would be a waste of bandwidth to load a mission for a storm you don't want to view mission data for. Once you select the mission you want, like "Mission 02 into Gustav" in the example at the left, that network link will open the data for that mission. The storm number will be located in parenthesis next to the storm name. Under that you will find the mission number. Next to that you will find the agency that is investigating the storm, "AF" for Air Force and "NOAA" for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The number to the right of the agency is the tail number of the aircraft.
The other folders contain information on different observations. You can check a folder to show or hide all observations of that type. When you expand a folder you will be able to view all the observations of that type. From there you can select to show or hide specific observations. For HDOB messages, observations are noted by the message number, like "OB 01", which is the observation number for a set of observations, usually 20. Our system has now been updated to include the time of the observation next to the observation number.
To view the latest position of the reconnaissance aircraft, look for the picture of a plane. If you click the icon, you will see the direction the plane is traveling and the distance to a large city nearby.
Missions from the past three hours can be found using our Google Earth network link. Check out our reconnaissance archive for missions into past storms. Look for the Google Earth symbol ( ) in the archive to view mission data for an archived mission.
If our site ever misses an observation, you can add it into our recon archive here.

If you want to fee like a small-town movie star, check out the Palm. The owners are friendly. The service is prompt. The food is fantastic. And the price is reasonable. As one customer said, this is a great value.
This price was similar to what we paid last week at Jim's Steakhouse. Don't get me wrong. Jim's is a first class operation. But this is a first class country operation. And they pass on the lower overhead being in a small community.
For 90 dollars we ordered, an appetizer, two steaks, sides, and two rich desserts. The Palm is a big bang for the buck.

ARLINGTON - Four years after a Grayson County judge granted DNA testing on evidence for Lester Leroy Bower, the results will finally be revealed in court on Monday morning.
"The first thing he said was, 'This is happening. It's finally going to happen,'" said Shari Bower, Les' wife. "I just think he's ready for it to move on to the next step."
In addition to the DNA testing, Shari said her husband's legal team will also reveal some new evidence in a hearing at the Grayson County Courthouse.
Bower, now 64, was sentenced to death in 1984 for the murders of four men at an airplane hangar in Grayson County.
Bower claims he's innocent, but admitted he did lie about being at the scene of the crime.
He is one of the longest-serving inmates on Texas' death row.

Georgia Wildlife Rescue volunteers face their highest need in nearly a decade, but donations to the non-profit are not meeting the new mark.
Administrators at one facility in Thomas County have rescued 150 animals and say they cannot accept any more due to limited resources.
Executive Director Chet Powell says the warm weather in the state along with the busy summer of animals mating in the wild takes a toll on the resources volunteers have. Many more young animals become orphaned and others are injured throughout the year.
The Georgia Wildlife Rescue Association works to rehabilitate and bring animals in need back to their natural habitat. Rising fuel prices, among other increased costs however, are causing the GWRA to come up short on funding to continue their work.
"Most of these animals are being transported through multiple counties just to get where they need to go," says Powell. "So you have the high cost of fuel that comes into play immediately."
Wildlife Rescue Association volunteers are certified by the state, but do not receive any state funding for their efforts.
Meanwhile, Powell says the number of animals in need is not going to recede any time soon, and that's why donations to aid experts that help wild animals are necessary.
Many wild animal rehabilitators focus on just one type of animal population, but recently, funding for these volunteer experts has dropped to a point where some can no longer aid animals in need.
Powell says some volunteers use their own money to aid efforts, but that only goes so far.
The GWRA is looking for more donations to keep their efforts going, and has established a handful of places to show support by donating.
For more information, visit georgiawildliferescue.org. Donation checks can be mailed to:

Donation checks should be made out to Georgia Wildlife Rehabilitation Association.

Well made, good fit, comfortable. Bought this for a 2 week trip to Hawaii. Wore it daily, in both ocean and pools. Tankini was comfortable, stayed put when swimming, was durable, and dried quick. Worked well under t-shirt/shorts for when we had both wet/dry activities in the day. Very satisfied with this purchase and highly recommend this product. October 20, 2013

Four condos remain at high-rise near Pike Place Market
Fifteen Twenty-One Second AvenueOpen 11 a.m.–6 p.m. daily and by appointment at 1521 Second Ave., Seattle
- Prices
From $1.565 million
- Information
206-443-1521 or fifteentwentyone.com
SEATTLE -- All but four of the 143 condominiums at Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue have been sold, generating more than a quarter-billion dollars in residential closings since its completion in 2009.
The four remaining homes are each C plans and are priced from $1.565 million. They are located on the southeast corner of the tower and offer wraparound views of the downtown Seattle skyline as well as protected vistas of Elliott Bay over Pike Place Market.
The 1,734-square-foot, two-bedroom floor plan includes floor-to-ceiling glass, hardwood floors, a custom-to-project kitchen, 5-foot-wide hallways and 8-foot-high doorways. The master bathroom has a bubble-jet tub and private water closet.
"Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue is the product of a 'dream team' who shared a mission to develop the region's finest high-rise residential community," says Tom Parsons of OPUS Northwest Residential, the firm that developed the tower. "By listening carefully to the marketplace, we challenged the status quo and built a community of all penthouse-style residences -- far different from the typical development format found elsewhere. And despite the market correction and its more recent rebound, Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue remains alone in its class today. I have a feeling that it always will."
Parsons says successful partnerships between OPUS and project visionary William Justen, Weber-Thompson Architects, Susan Marinello Interiors, and the sales and marketing teams at Citrone of Realogics Sotheby's International Realty contributed to the project's success.
"In fact, many team members actually became homeowners," he says. "That's the ultimate validation. When individuals on your development team -- including your architect, marketing and sales teams and even your mortgage lender -- buy into the project itself, that says they believe in the product and the value."
Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue was designed so that every residence is at least a two-bedroom home with an average of 2,000 square feet of living space. Features include the Glass Room, an indoor/outdoor space with operating window panels for use in all seasons.
Homeowners have access to a penthouse-level amenity area with two view terraces above the city for barbecuing or entertaining fireside.
The community is located on Second Avenue between Pike and Pine streets, and is just a few steps from Pike Place Market and numerous urban amenities. Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue is also positioned to benefit from the billion-dollar waterfront park that will replace the Alaskan Way Viaduct.
Fifteen Twenty-One Second Avenue was voted the West Coast's Outstanding High-Rise at the Gold Nugget Awards during the Pacific Coast Builder's Conference in 2009. The same year, it was named Project of the Year by the Multifamily Executive Awards and Multifamily High-Rise of the Year by the National Association of Industrial and Office Properties. It was the regional Attached Community of the Year at The Nationals, a competition sponsored by the National Association of Home Builders.

Rounders (1998)
Submitted by squishadmin on January 23, 2013 - 5:14pm.
Until the 1990's, when someone thought about poker in movies, they typically thought of the stereotypical scene where gamblers in a bar or saloon sat around playing five card draw and eventually come to blows over the game. The reality behind the lifestyle of a poker grinder was rarely examined, that was until 1998 when the cult classic Rounders was released. Rounders would ultimately prove itself to be the quintessential poker film and would have a significant impact on real world poker and future generations of players.
Rounders has been called many things but in reality the film is a coming of age story for an extremely talented poker player Mike McDermott, played by Matt Damon. McDermott was a poker player who got hustled by an experienced player but rather than make a comeback, he decided to leave the game.
His exit from the game would not last as a fellow rounder and negative influence Worm reenters his life. Worm, played by Ed Norton, is a decent card player but also is a mechanic or an old school term for a cheat. Under the influence of Worm, Mike goes back to playing card regularly and has to deal with the realities of a life of a poker player.
Rounders didn't just look at one side of poker but rather the full spectrum. The good players were not always good and viewers for the first time got to see some of the true psychology behind the game. Poker is not about getting the best cards or playing your hand the best. Many times it is about playing the people regardless of your cards or even the cards they are holding.
In addition, the dark side of the game was also exposed more realistically than ever before. Back room games, gambling debts, addiction, and more were all revealed as part of the world of poker and these were concepts that were glossed over by many movies. In the past, the worst that could happen is a fist fight or a gunfight at a poker table. As long as you didn't cheat, everything was fine. That is not the reality of the game.
Without spoiling too much of the plot, Mike eventually gets the opportunity to get his poker career back on track despite the many obstacles put before him. The turning point of the film revolves around the Oreo tell of the main villain of the film, but we will let you figure that out for yourself.
Many of the current generation of professional poker players point to Rounders as their influence for getting involved with poker. The film told the truth about the game of poker in a way not explored by filmmakers in the past and many were drawn to the mental aspect of the game.
Whether or not you are a fan of poker, you likely will enjoy Rounders. It is a well written story with a strong cast that will keep you engaged for the entire film.

The Latest
Author Sandra D. Bricker
Raised as a Cincinnati Kid, Sandie Bricker spent her formative years dreaming about the movies and television shows she would someday write. It came as no surprise to anyone when she packed up her Ford Fiesta and migrated to Los Angeles to study screenwriting.
"But life is what happens while we're busy making other plans," she jokes. While searching for a way to earn a living and pay her tuition, Sandie says she "stumbled into" her own business working as a personal assistant and publicist to some of daytime television's hottest stars. When her mother became ill on the other side of the country, however, Sandie put soap opera clients, film dreams—and Los Angeles—in her rearview mirror to take on a new role:
"I guess most people would see my career as a publicist as a sort of dream job. But giving it up and moving to Florida to take care of my mom until she died turned out to be the best thing that could have happened to me!" she declares. When, at her mother's urging, she channeled her writing dreams from the screen to the page,
a reader favorite was born!
"Twenty books later," she says, "I'd say God had another plan for me. The opportunity to combine my passion for writing with my Christian faith is a blessing I never expected…and wouldn't trade for anything!"
In November 2013, Sandie packed her car once again and this time headed north. "I was raised in Cincinnati," she says. "So it feels like full circle to find myself led back to Ohio." She is in the process of making a home in Toledo where her home church and best friend of more than 40 years are located. This year, she has taken her established writer brand of
Laugh Out Loud Fiction
and transitioned to
Live Out Loud Fiction
. "I think I've grown as a writer over the last couple of years," she says. "Although humor will
filter out of my stories, I do think my readers have enjoyed the deeper spiritual and life lesson threads that have become part of my storytelling."

Jekyll & Hyde, Starring Constantine Maroulis and Deborah Cox, Will End Broadway Run Early
By Andrew Gans
The Broadway revival of Jekyll & Hyde, which began previews April 5 following a national tour, will play its final performance at the Marquis Theatre May 12 at 7 PM. When it closes, the production, which officially opened April 18, will have played 15 previews and 30 regular performances.
The limited engagement, which received no 2013 Tony nominations, had been scheduled to run through June 30.
Jeff Calhoun (Newsies, Bonnie & Clyde, Big River) directs and choreographs.
Constantine Maroulis, a Tony nominee for his performance in Rock of Ages, heads the cast in the dual title roles of Dr. Henry Jekyll and Edward Hyde with Grammy-nominated R&B star Deborah Cox as Lucy, Teal Wicks as Emma Carew, Laird Mackintosh as John Utterson and Richard White as Sir Danvers Carew.
Rounding out the cast are David Benoit, Stephen Mitchell Brown, Jerry Christakos, Dana Costello, Wendy Fox, Brian Gallagher, Sean Jenness, Mel Johnson Jr., James Judy, Ashley Loren, Courtney Markowitz, Aaron Ramey, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Rob Richardson, Blair Ross, Doug Storm, Haley Swindal and Jason Wooten.
Read the recent Playbill magazine interview with Constantine Maroulis here.
Conceived for the stage by Tony and Grammy nominee Frank Wildhorn and Steve Cuden, the four-time Tony-nominated musical Jekyll & Hyde features a book and lyrics by two-time Oscar winner, Emmy winner and four-time Tony Award nominee Leslie Bricusse and music by Wildhorn.
The production also features scenic and costume design by Tobin Ost, lighting design by Jeff Croiter, sound design by Ken Travis, hair and wig design by Charles G. Lapointe and projection design by Daniel Brodie. Orchestrations are by Kim Scharnberg. Musical supervision and arrangements are by Jason Howland. The music director is Steven Landau, and the music coordinator is David Lai. Richard J. Hinds is the associate director/choreographer.
Jekyll & Hyde is based on the novella "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" by Robert Louis Stevenson, about "a London doctor who accidentally unleashes his evil alternate personality in his quest to cure his father's mental illness," according to production notes.
Following a 30-city tour, the original Broadway production opened at The Plymouth Theatre April 28, 1997, and earned four Tony Award nominations. Directed by Robin Phillips and choreographed by Joey Pizzi, the production starred Robert Cuccioli, Linda Eder and Christiane Noll. After 1,543 performances and featuring such replacements as Sebastian Bach and David Hasselhoff in the title role, the production played its final performance Jan. 7, 2001.
Jekyll & Hyde is produced by Nederlander Presentations, Inc., Independent Presenters Network, Chunsoo Shin, Luigi Caiola and Stewart F. Lane/Bonnie Comley.
"American Idol" finalist Maroulis earned a 2009 Best Actor Tony Award nomination for portraying Drew, an aspiring musician with pipes of steel in the Tony-nominated musical Rock of Ages. He originated the role in the Off-Broadway production at New World Stages in 2008. He has also appeared on Broadway in The Wedding Singer, Off-Broadway in Jacques Brel… and the national tour of Rent.

It may or may not have been the luck of the Irish, but a Powerball player came remarkably close to winning the multi-state lottery game's $216 million jackpot Saturday night. As it is, the player, who bought their ticket at a store in the Bucktown neighborhood, missed the grand prize by one number, but will still collect $1 million.
The winning numbers in Saturday night's drawing were: 03 - 07 - 21 - 44 and 53, and the Power Ball number was 16.
No one matched all six numbers, but someone who bought their ticket at the Grisel Jr. Food & Liquor store at 2000 N. Leavitt St. matched five of five numbers, and will collect $1 million, according to the Illinois Lottery.
Two other Illinois players matched four of five numbers and the Powerball, and they will each collect $10,000.
The next Powerball drawing, with a jackpot of $260,000, will be held on Wednesday.
