Tonight on ABC-7 Xtra: A look at recent pay increase for court-appointed attorneys
Updated On: Dec 23 2013 01:07:22 AM CST
Tonight on ABC-7 Xtra at 10:35 pm, we're going to be discussing the recent pay increase for court-appointed attorneys.
County Commissioner Vince Perez, who says taxpayers simply cannot afford the pay increase, will be joining us on the program tonight. So will Clara Hernandez, El Paso County's Public Defender.
On Thursday, the Council of Judges - which consists of all of the elected District and County Judges - voted to increase the pay for court-appointed lawyers. These are the attorneys whom Judges appoint to a case when a defendant cannot afford a lawyer. Currently, court-appointed attorneys are paid $75 an hour for time they spend on a case in court and $60 for time out of court. The new rate, voted on and adopted by the Judges will be: $90 in court and $75 out of court. The County Auditor says County Commissioners are going to have to find a way to get the $1.1 million a year the increase will cost.
Judges insist the lawyers are underpaid. But money isn't the only issue: Perez points to a small pool of attorneys who are getting a big chunk of the money. About 30 attorneys of the 300 eligible received half of the $6.3 million the County spent on indigent defense in fiscal year 2013. He believes the process to appoint attorneys should be more transparent and fair. Judges insist they use their discretion to choose the best attorneys for individual cases.
We'll discuss all of this on ABC7 Xtra tonight at 10:35 pm. Join the conversation by calling with your questions/comments at 915-496-1775, tweeting to host Maria Garcia @MariaGABC7, or sending an email to email@example.com.

A homeless Gloucester man was arrested yesterday on an outstanding warrant.
Gregory M. Moses Jr., 30, turned himself in to police yesterday afternoon on the outstanding warrant which was for a charge of violating a restraining order.
Police responded to McDonald's on Maplewood Avenue at 4:35 p.m. Tuesday for a reported motor vehicle accident. When the officers arrived, they found two vehicles had collided on Maplewood Avenue. Police said Jessica Sorrells, 29, of Maryland admitted fault in the incident. Sorrells told the officers that she spilled her soda and drove into oncoming traffic while looking down at the spill. No injuries were reported and both cars were towed away.
A Mason Street woman called police at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday to report vandalism. When police arrived on scene, they found that somebody had thrown a Chinese barbecue pork rib through a window, breaking it. Police searched the area for somebody with Chinese food and came up empty.

The Public Works employee told police that the people drove away when they saw him. State police caught up to the vehicle in Wakefield; the occupants told them they were supposed to do work at the house. This claim was later verified by the company that hired them.

Cod wallop: So long, New England fishermen?
Last week, the New England Fishery Management Council cut the cod quota in the Gulf of Maine by 77 percent and off Georges Bank by 61 percent. Some fishermen will be able to fish cod for only a day, or less, this year. The South Coast Today newspaper quoted John Bullard of the National Marine Fisheries Service as saying, simply, "The fish aren't there."
But fishermen say the cod have moved north, and these catch limits will devastate the industry for no good reason. There is scientific evidence to support their claim.
Cod do migrate to colder waters when their native waters warm.
In 2005, Institute of Marine Research scientist Kenneth Drinkwater wrote in the ICES Journal of Marine Science that a temperature increase of 4 degrees celsius would lead to collapse of the cod fishery off Georges Bank and sharp decline in the Gulf of Maine as the cod migrated north. "It is quite clear that, with future warming, there will be a northward migration of cod," he wrote.
In the past year, the temperature in the Gulf of Maine reached record highs. "At some point, (the gulf) is going to be inhospitable to cod. We're getting close to that now," said Jeffrey Runge, biological oceanographer at the University of Maine. In the past four years, the surface temperature in the gulf has risen between 2 and 3.5 degrees fahrenheit a year, more than enough to cause the near-collapse due to migration that Drinkwater predicted in 2005.
The government acts as though the only issue is overfishing. So it does what it always has done: it cuts the quotas. This approach is so inflexible and burdensome that even politicians like Carol Shea-Porter and Jeanne Shaheen, reflexive supporters of empowering government to control industries through the regulatory process, have expressed opposition to it.
Maybe last week's action, which could decimate the New England fishing industry, will finally open the eyes of those who assume that bureaucrats always know, and do, what is best.

3.4/5 rDev -6.8%
Imperiale pours black as night with a mocha head. The retention is more of a film that stays atop, not too far out of the ordinary for a beer of this potency.
It's not as bold in the nostrils as I was expecting. Coffee grounds, smoke, and a dash of roasted nuts is about all I can decipher. Despite the mild nose, the alcohol is hidden extremely well.
Sweet flavors of hit the palette up front brown sugar and , but the hops finally show themselves in the finish which is complete bitterness. Loads of dry roasty flavors entertain the taste buds everywhere in between.
The body doesn't seem overly heavy, and it's pretty easy to drink. Alcohol is a hermit the whole time, so it's definitely sneaky. Overall, there's not loads of complexity to ponder, but it's easy to drink and solid.

Appearance - Pours jet black with cola brown edging. The head is tan in color, a good finger and a half thick, and holds with good retention. Lacing is spotty, with fair stick.
Smell - Aroma is faint; mostly anise, with hints of chocolate, caramel and coffee. Hops are present as well, though fairly indistinguishable.
Taste - Starts with subtle chocolate and roasted coffee notes, mid-taste is fairly muddled, then finishes with a touch of roasty bitterness and a moderate anise character.
Mouthfeel - Medium to full body, with low carbonation. Kinda flat. Somewhat chalky.
Overall - This is a decent imperial stout. Nothing that hasn't been done before, and the execution isn't all that great. Drinkable, somewhat enjoyable. Probably wouldn't buy again.

3.7/5 rDev +1.4%
Poured from a 22oz bomber into my Bruery snifter.
Nearly opaque bistre body with faint auburn highlights and a small frothy desert sand crown that recedes to a creamy collar and a messy surface slick. Sandy lacing, viscous legs, decent retention.
Roast barley, coffee, and other dark malt notes greet the nose, followed by some sweeter yeast esters, and a hint of molasses, spice, and a slight herbal note.
Flavors follow the aroma closely with an emphasis on the malts - raw cocoa, toffee, and burnt sugar give a slightly acrid bent to the profile, though it mellows out with a spicy bitterness leading into an herbaceous drying finish. Hop presence is moderate throughout. Well balanced, but not greater than the sum of its parts.
Medium bodied, faintly prickly and moderately warming, though by no means fusel.
A decent stout, though slightly muddled with perhaps an excess of specialty malt or roast barley for my taste. A little goes a long way.

Poured a then tan head on a black body.
The aroma is good. Big dose of roasted malt, black licorice and coffee.
The taste delivers on the roasted malt and strong pine bitterness. Though the transition through the profile is abrupt.
The texture is smooth with moderate carbonation.
Enjoyable if you like a mixture of roasted maltiness with strong bitter.

A big thanks to James (cavemanlawyer) for this great extra. Cheers!
Appearance – Pours a dark black into a tulip with less than a finger of tan head.
Smell – Heavy caramel, malt, coffee, slight hops, and molasses.
Taste – Slight char up front, chocolate, roasted malts, dark fruits such as prunes, and a bit of vanilla.
Mouthfeel – Medium bodied, lower carbonation.
Overall – Not a bad stout…I feel it should be rated a bit higher than it is.

3.8/5 rDev +4.1%
Appearance. Pours pretty close to black with a nice 2 fingers of thick and creamy looking tan head.
Smell. Sweet chocolate and dark roasty malts with a little espresso.
Taste. Lots of roasty dark malts and again, sweet chocolate. A little bitterness and citrus hops in the finish.
Mouthfeel. Pretty full bodied with medium-low carbonation. A little warm.
Overall. Nice big stout here. Pretty easy drinking considering and tastes good.

3.53/5 rDev -3.3%
Appearance: (4.0)
- Jet brown brew.. maybe even some black! Minimal tan to light tan head which really didn't froth up in a hurry. Leaves a pancake of foam in the middle above the brew with some lacing about.
Smell: (3.5)
- Little hidden beneath a safe malt bill... bready, grainy, lightly sweet.. chocolate, light sweet malts.. not much of a dry or hoppy nose. Meh..
Taste: (3.5)
- Nice chocolate bready grain.. melded very well. Sweet, lots of grain, and sweet chocolate malts. This is an American sweet stout for sure. Perhaps a little grassy touch of a barley used hop, but this is certainly a malt forward sweety.
Mouth Feel: (3.5)
- Credit here where credit is deserved. It has a nice viscous medium to heavy body as a so-called Imperial Stout should. It's a little sticky, but more cloying and syrupy. It could use some more early boil Irish flare. But then it wouldn't be an American Sweet Stout...
Overall: (3.5)
- I guess it is about par with what I would expect from a brewery that took off like a Russian rocket on American fuel. It's a solid sweet stout, but nothing to write home about. Though if it were to be on tap somewhere next to a few other better known stouts.. I may still pick this one because it is easy to drink, and makes a nice desert if a brownie is absent.

22 picked up today at Brewforia... Poured into my new CBS snifter... damn this is a big glass. Short lasting 1 finger brownish head... only okay lacing.. the brew is the expected black.
Nose is a bit odd... roasty, but a dark dried fruitiness seems pretty high for the style... dark cherries and some milk chocolate.. not nearly enough "big stout" qualities for my liking.
Flavor begins with mild roasty qualites... again fruity esters come in quickly and hang on to the finish.. light coffee and chocolate.. okay... needs more heft for sure.
Body is sorta thin for such a big stout...
This is an okay brew.. I doubt it will get better with more time in the bottle.

Poured into a Gulden Draak tulip. Pours an opaque very dark brown with red tints. Thin tan head dissipates to a film and ring around the glass and a hint of lacing. Light aroma of toasted malt and a hint of chocolate. Starts off with a light flavor of toasted malt and slight light fruit. Finish is more intense with toasted malt, some char and a hint of coffee and chocolate. Flavors are somewhat subdued for an Imperial stout. What flavor is present is pleasant and appropriate. Medium bodied. A satisfactory stout that was pleasant to drink, but I'm not sure what the "High Gravity" means in the name, this is a somewhat light to normal stout in all characteristics.

22oz bottle from LetsPour.com. No bottling date. Served in a Wild Heaven snifter.
Pours dark brown with a half finger of tan head. Foam recedes quickly but leaves a decent bit of lace.
Smells of light cocoa, milk and caramel. Not bad but far from outstanding.
Taste is a subdued but pleasent blend of cocoa, cream, oatmeal and caramel. A slight sting of booze towards the finish.
Creamy medium full feel with mild but quite forward carbonation. Fairly dry aftertaste of bitter cocoa and sweet cream.
It's ok. There's nothing here to make me stand up and cheer but I didn't need to pour it either. No off flavors but it just doesn't come across as very "Imperiale".

Council scoops £900,000 housing bonus
10:06am Thursday 20th December 2012 in Bridgwater Area News By Kirsty James
"SEDGEMOOR really is punching above its weight" says council after being awarded £900,000 housing bonus.
Sedgemoor District Council secured the cash from Central Government as part of a 'New Homes Bonus' scheme, which provides funding based on the number of new homes built each year.
There is an additional reward for providing affordable homes. SDC's Planning Policy manager Nick Tait said: "The award is the highest in Somerset.
"The Council has been able to support the delivery of record numbers of new homes - almost half of which are affordable to local families and people."
The funds will help the council maintain existing services and invest in initiatives such as bringing empty homes back into use.
Claire Faun, spokesperson for SDC, added: "This announcement comes fast on the recent good news on jobs that includes the new police HQ, Mulberry's, and the energy park proposals and shows that Sedgemoor really is the punching above its weight when it comes to attracting inward investment."

9/11/2013 (Updated 11:10:28 PM)On Tuesday, President Barack Obama addressed the nation on the crisis in Syria saying the nation should be prepared to take military action but that he would put no boots on the ground.
Congressman Richard Hanna says he understands the United States has certain responsibilities, but feels there are ways to handle the crisis other than with a military strike.
He fears this action could cause more harm than good and says his constituents are bone tired of war.
"Afghanistan was supposed to be a short action so you can't tell me that we can predict the outcome, the duration or the extent of cost and involvement because we never have been able to before," said Hanna.
Hanna says he's not against getting involved but doesn't think military action is the way to go.

What was initially described as "gunfire" directed at an LP&L vehicle with an employee inside has now been downgraded to a charge of criminal mischief against an unknown suspect with a BB gun.
EUB Chairman Gail Kring said, "One of our field employees had his truck shot last week while out trying to do his job," in comments made to the board on Tuesday.
Councilman Victor Hernandez condemned the violence in a press release issued Wednesday morning. That release described the incident as, "an LP&L vehicle hit by gunfire, with the LP&L employee inside."
Hernandez spoke with the chief of police and has requested that security measures be discussed in executive session during the council's next meeting.
But now Lubbock police have released more details about the incident, saying that the vehicle was actually hit by a shot from a BB gun on Sept. 6 while an employee was sitting in his truck at the Sacramento Apartments in the 4300 block of 17th Street.
The vehicle sustained minor damage and the employee was not hurt.
We're told that the BB nicked the paint on the truck.
Anyone with information about this incident is encouraged to call Crime Line at 741-1000.

I wish to insert a title sheet dwg, which has attribute definitions, as a block in another dwg.
I can insert it, and if I explode it, the attribute definitions appear. Otherwise they are not added to the database.
I am using standard code, which I can attach if it helps.
it starts
Dim btr As BlockTableRecord
Dim blk As BlockReference = New BlockReference(ip, blkid) ' insert block
If btr.HasAttributeDefinitions Then
ForEach attID As ObjectId In btr
but btr.HasAttributeDefinitions = False
Please help?
Solved! Go to Solution.
ps. I have looked everywhere.
you insert a BlockReference into a BlockTableRecord, the the BlockTableRecord will not hold AttributeDefinitions, you have not inserted multiple Objects, just added ONE BlockReference.
And you have no chance to get nested ones.
Try in AutoCAD:
create one Block inluding a rectangle + one Attribute(definition) ==> call it TABLE
copy this Block(References) 5 times
create a new Block(Definition) TABLEGROUP out of these 5 BlockReferences and insert it anywhere in your drawing ==> the BlockReference TABLEGROUP does not show Attribute(References) to work with.
- alfred -
Sorry, I don't understand your point.
I am using this code to insert a dwg
Dim btr As BlockTableRecord
Dim bt As BlockTable = DirectCast(tr.GetObject(CurDb.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead), BlockTable)
Dim blkid As ObjectId
If Not bt.Has(Name) Then
btr = tr.GetObject(CurDb.CurrentSpaceId, OpenMode.ForWrite) ' not already inserted?
Dim db As Database = New Database(False, True)
Using db
db.ReadDwgFile(Path, System.IO.FileShare.Read, False, "") ' insert dwg
blkid = CurDb.Insert(Name, db, True)
End Using
End If
btr = DirectCast(tr.GetObject(CurDb.CurrentSpaceId, OpenMode.ForWrite), BlockTableRecord)
If String.IsNullOrEmpty(btr.Name) Then
btr.Name = Name
End If
Dim blk As BlockReference = New BlockReference(ip, blkid) ' insert block
I understand that the dwg's attributes may not be loaded into the database. So how do I do that?
could you also attach/upload the drawing that you use for this statement
db.ReadDwgFile(Path, System.IO.FileShare.Read, False, "")
- alfred -
ok, I tried ... and I understand your question now
You donot have a problem defining the BlockDefinition by inserting data from an external DWG
Your problem is: when inserting the BlockReference into the modelspace the AttributeReferences are not generated automatically. And yes, that is by default, to get them inserted look to >>>this sample<<< .... especially the part with:
ar.SetAttributeFromBlock(ad, blkRef.BlockTransform)
The AttRef's have to be created seperatly and attached to the BlockRef's AttributeCollection.
Good luck, - alfred -
Thanks for that.
I attach a text file showing my code as it seems to encapsulate all that I found out.

With family vacations in mind, we turned to Jenny Cooper, head designer at J.Crew's Crewcuts division, to see what she'd bring on a family trip. A mom of two boys — Walker, 9, and Miller, 6 — the Brooklyn mama knows a thing or two about packing light and giving her tots some leeway with their travel bags. Keep reading to see her picks! Suitcase What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The most important thing you need is a suitcase. If I had a girl, I'd get her the wandering star luggage ($98), which I love, and since I don't have girls, I'll probably just get it for myself! But I got [the boys] these amazing suitcases that they pack themselves. These Jellybean suitcases are small sized, on four wheels, and totally lightweight. I encourage them to pack themselves. They pack the books, the toys, and the Legos that they want to bring with them. And then, obviously, they need a little help with the underwear, the swim trunks, and the things that they don't think about! 1 / 7 Sunscreen What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 My kids hate sunscreen and for some reason find the stick application less frightening. I don't know why they are deathly afraid of lotion! 2 / 7 Hat What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A Trilby [hat] — to shade them from the sun and make them look like they just stepped off a movie set. The eyelet flower for girls and the striped band for boys. 3 / 7 Sunglasses What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Sunglasses, obviously! The Selima Aviator for boys and the Ecole for girls. I love the old-school glamour of the Ecole for a little dress up on the beach. 4 / 7 Swimsuit What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Since they need swim trunks, we made one modeled on our club short, a quick-drying cotton nylon that they can play in and go swimming, without pausing to change! Walker and Miller love that idea. It's called the mini-diamond swim short. Fortunately, we also made them for men so their dad can do the same, but I would get him the microstripe swim short so they don't match. 6 / 7 Camera What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Last but not least would have to be the Holga camera – so they can take pictures of their sandcastles! Source: Thinkstock 6 / 7 For Mom What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Then for me, it would have to be the LemLem Grace Tunic. It's the perfect thing to toss over a polka-dot high-waisted bikini (another current obsession!) so lightweight and airy with a graphic stripe. 7 / 7 0 0 0 0 0 Read More Interview With Jenny CooperFamily TravelCrewcutsSuitcasesEditor's PickJ CrewVacation Family Travel The 10 Best National Parks to Visit With Kids 6/14 Surf's Up!

Tell President Obama and Congress not to make the same mistake as President Bush.
Everybody agrees that something should be done to the regime in Syria considering how many citizens have been killed. The gassing of its own citizens was an atrocity that should be dealt with harshly. The nations around Syria should be alarmed.
If the Syrian government gets away with this, what nation will be next? This just opens the door for terrorists throughout the world.
But if the United States acts alone again, all we would be doing is killing Syrians, good and bad.
This decision should come only from the United Nations. If the United Nations does not act, why do we need it? I ask all our government officials not to just engage the United States alone, again.

Brands Hatch has starring role in new film
Video. The fierce rivalry between Formula 1 racing drivers James Hunt and Niki Lauda is the subject of a new film, "Rush", which had its premiere last night.
Many of the extras in the movie, set in the 1970s, are Kent motor racing fans. And - as you might expect - the Brands Hatch race circuit has a starring role. Jonathan Marland reports.

Derry News
---- — LONDONDERRY — With Halloween right around the corner, a prime pumpkin crop looks good for jack-o'-lantern fans. The crop is healthy and an improvement over recent years.
Wayne Elwood Sr., farm manager of Elwood Orchards, first began planting his pumpkin seeds in June, a little bit later this year because of the warm weather, he said.
Although Elwood Orchards only has about 3 acres of pumpkin patches this year, they bloomed bigger and earlier because of the low humidity and dry condition of the soil, he said.
In previous years, the pumpkins were not so plentiful.
The rainy and humid seasons in 2011 and 2010 provided the perfect atmosphere for insects, as well as for phytophthora blight, a fungal infection of fruit and vegetables.
George Hamilton, a field specialist with the University of New Hampshire Extension Service, said threats such as fungi and insects are less of a problem in New Hampshire this year.
"There was a major disease problem across the state in 2011," Hamilton said.
However, since most of this growing season was dry and humid, no fungus made a major impact on pumpkin crops, Hamilton said.
Mother Nature has other ways to destroy pumpkin crops, the biggest threat this year being the stripped cucumber beetle. The bug is most prevalent when bees have to pollinate the crops, making them hard to combat, Hamilton said.
Another pest is the squash vine borer. This moth lays its eggs near the vines of pumpkins and other crops. When the grubs hatch, they eat away at the stems and vines of crops, Hamilton said.
"I was at a pumpkin patch in Concord, I was appalled how bad they were," he said.
Although the problem has not been dire for every patch in New Hampshire, it certainty has not helped.
Elwood got an email from UNH, notifying him about the severity of insects, but he said he has not experienced many insect problems this year.
Patches at Mack's Apples have not been significantly hurt by any fungus or insect this year, farm manager Mike Cross said.
His crop last year was sparse due to weather conditions and fungal infections, Cross said, but this year his pumpkin patches are much more orange.
One patron of Sunnycrest Farms in Londonderry said the pumpkin crop looks different this year.
"I've noticed pumpkins all over are smaller," said Richard Hagen of Londonderry. "But the crop itself is more abundant."
In Derry, the 20 acres of pumpkins at J&F Farm are looking good.
Melissa Dolloff, farm manager, said the pumpkins at J&F are healthy and orange; there was no significant loss from insect infestations or fungi.
Dolloff said her pumpkins were planted around their usual time, toward the end of May.
Like other farmers, the J&F crop was ready surprisingly early.
"We could have picked in early August if we wanted to," she said.
Dolloff said the dry and humid conditions made for an early season.
"This time, the warm weather worked in favor for the pumpkins," said Gail McWilliam Jellie, the director of agricultural development for the New Hampshire Department of Agriculture.

You've probably been talking about it and walking through it: the seemingly endless gallons of rain pouring forth from the skies above.
But who can stop it? Nobody apparently. For what seems like all summer, it's been coming down in buckets. And if you haven't had to work in it, you've at least had to walk through it.
And guess what!? It's not over.
So before the Soda City goes down the drain, I'm getting out of here by the most logical and realistic means: an ark.
Now all I need is two of every animal.
First stop is City Roots for some vittles. They'd like a break from the rain, too.
Despite what you may think, City Roots' Eric McClam says the monsoonish conditions in South Carolina can be problematic, to say the least.
The smallest issue: not as many tikes like to come pick blueberries and blackberries.
The rain's doing a number on their tomatoes and other vegetables.
"We're seeing some disease problems due to the moisture, a little bit of cracking in the fruit, basically too much moisture," said McClam.
Then there are the insects and the problem of tractors bogging down.
"We can't really use any of our cultivation equipment because it's too wet," said McClam. "It's really just a pain."
A pain I'll soon be free of. Our next stop is Ace Hardware for, well, the hardware. And caulk. I bet arks need a lot of caulk.
Manager Donnie Wheelis hasn't done any shipbuilding, but he has helped folks with the usual rain-related fixes.
"They discover their roof is leaking, so they buy a lot of roof cement," said Wheelis.
By the way, it has been wetter than average, but we haven't come close to records. It just seems much worse because of the recent drought.
I've had enough, and there's room onboard as long as you can, you know, build a boat.

CATEGORIES Movies, Sundance Film FestivalWhy does Malin Akerman look so happy? Maybe because her movie 'happythankyoumoreplease' just landed a distribution deal, one of many late-breaking deals on day 7 of the Sundance Film Festival that ought to quash all the hand-wringing that's gone on this week about how weak the market is for this year's festival films. Also because Akerman's in 'The Romantics,' another date-night Sundance film that ought to have a buyer soon. Read on for more about Wednesday's deals, star sightings, interviews and reviews. Why does Malin Akerman look so happy? Maybe because her movie 'happythankyoumoreplease' just landed a distribution deal, one of many late-breaking deals on day 7 of the Sundance Film Festival that ought to quash all the hand-wringing that's gone on this week about how weak the market is for this year's festival films. Also because Akerman's in 'The Romantics,' another date-night Sundance film that ought to have a buyer soon. Read on for more about Wednesday's deals, star sightings, interviews and reviews.
Daily Buzz: Most of the distribution bigwigs had left Park City by late Wednesday, yet a flurry of last-minute deal-making convinces tHollywood Reporter that the market for indie films is strong. So why did it take so long to see more than a handful of big deals made? Because distributors have become a lot more cautious and eager to do due diligence on a film's prospect's before buying it, the Reporter says.
One reason distributors may be cautious is that a lot of the films feature big stars behaving very badly. As the Hollywood Reporter points out, at a time when mainstream audiences are apoplectic over Sigourney Weaver smoking a cigarette in 'Avatar,' it may be hard to market Joseph Gordon-Levitt using a cigarette to commit arson in 'Hesher,' or Kristen Stewart prostituting herself in 'Welcome to the Rileys,' or Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson having sadomasochistic sex with Casey Affleck in 'The Killer Inside Me.' (Gee, at another time, those might all have been big selling points.)
Still, some Sundance films, like Akerman's, are fairly benign romantic comedies. As an actress with more than one film at the festival, Akerman could be said to wear many hats, but in a literal sense, she seems to have just one, which she even wears indoors to Sundance screenings. More on Sundance stars and their crazy winter hats can be found in this photo gallery at Huffington Post. (Hat tip, no pun intended, to Cinematical, which posts links to this gallery and other celebrity sightings and festival buzz in its daily digest, "Sundance in 60 Seconds.")
News: Biggest deal of the festival so far may have been the sale of 'The Kids Are All Right' to Focus Features, for a figure the Hollywood Reporter cites as slightly under $5 million. The dramedy from Sundance perennial Lisa Cholodenko ('High Art,' "Laurel Canyon') is about a lesbian couple (Julianne Moore and Annette Bening), their teenage kids (Mia Wasikowska and Josh Hutcherson), and the kids' birth father (Mark Ruffalo). The film is reportedly an audience-pleaser with a star-making performance by Wasikowska, so Focus' money may be well-spent.
The Reporter documents other sales, including Akerman's 'happythankyoumoreplease' to Myriad Pictures and backwoods slasher spoof 'Tucker & Dale vs. Evil' to Maple Pictures. Plus, there were some other sales of foreign rights for some off-the-radar movies.
'Splice,' a sci-fi/horror film with some strong buzz, has sparked a bidding war and may sell soon, says the Hollywood Reporter, but as a service deal -- an increasingly popular option for indie films, in which the producers keep the rights (and assume most of the risk) but hire a distributor to market and release the movie, paying a fee upfront and a percentage of the gross. Another alternative method, cited by indieWIRE, is the Film Collaborative, which has a presence at Sundance this week. It's a nonprofit group that sells marketing, distribution and other services to indie filmmakers while letting them retain the rights.
According to Variety (subscription required), the last 24 hours also saw deals for 'Hesher' (sold for $1 million to Newmarket) and for 'Twelve' (sold to Hannover House, a publisher new to the major theatrical marketplace, for $2 million). The deal for 'Twelve' follows a disastrous screening for the film, a drama directed by Hollywood vet Joel Schumacher, about drugs and debauchery among wealthy New York teens. (Think of it as an R-rated 'Gossip Girl,' especially since it stars Chace Crawford.) By all accounts, the film had the audience laughing hysterically. Probably not the response Schumacher was going for.
Interviews: 'Blue Valentine''s Ryan Gosling and director Derek Cianfrance sit for a video interview with indieWIRE's Anne Thompson. Co-star Michelle Williams joins the guys for an audio interview with Cinematical.
The New York Times has a brief talk, over mushroom risotto, with 'I Am Love''s Tilda Swinton.
IndieWIRE learned 10 things it didn't know about Joan Rivers from the comedy legend's frank and profane Q&A after the screening of 'Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work.' If the video is too NSFW for you, you can read IndieWIRE's cleaned-up highlights summary here.
Reviews: Akerman's wedding comedy 'The Romantics' gets a thumbs-up from USA Today, while the Hollywood Reporter calls it "forgettable fun."
Why did critics find 'Twelve' so (unintentionally) hilarious? Ask the reviewers at IFC's Independent Eye and Cinema Blend.
Cinematical geeks out over 'Splice,' finds stoner comedy 'HIGH School' funny enough not to mind the rough patches, and considers 'Lucky,' a documentary about what happens to lottery winners after the windfall, "slick and simple."
IndieWIRE finds 'North Face,' a German drama about a real-life mountain-climbing adventure, breathtaking in technique but overwrought in plotting. IndieWIRE also rounds up reviewer responses to 3-D documentary 'Cane Toads: The Conquest,' Gurinder Chadha's ('Bend It Like Beckham') dark comedy 'It's a Wonderful Afterlife,' and 'Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work.' The site also has the rundown on the three films in Sundance's 'Africa First' program, including 'Pumzi,' a cool-looking sci-fi short from Kenya's Wahuri Kahiu. (Inside Movies posted the trailer here.)
Filmmaker magazine ponders the mystery of Banksy's street art documentary 'Exit Through the Gift Shop': How do we know the elusive and pseudonymous graffiti artist actually made this movie himself (and didn't farm it out to, say, Spike Jonze)? And is it a real doc or a Sacha Baron Cohen-style docu-prank?
Roger Ebert weighs in with praise for 'Smash His Camera,' the documentary about veteran celebrity shutterbug Ron Galella.
Video: A newbie celebrity shutterbug, just 13 years old, snapped Adrian Grenier's picture, so the 'Entourage' star decided to make a documentary about him and about the extremes of our fascination with the famous. Grenier talks about his film, 'Teenage Paparazzo,' here.
Here are some clips from 'Sympathy for Delicious,' a drama about a paralyzed DJ who seeks help from faith healers, featuring Mark Ruffalo (who also directed), Juliette Lewis, Laura Linney, and Orlando Bloom. (Video contains NSFW language.)

Foreclosure rate in Topeka edges up
What's happening Kansas? The Topeka Capital Journal spent time this past week finding out. The paper released the following statistics on the foreclosure situation in Topeka, KS:
Topeka's foreclosure rate edged up slightly in December, but was lower than the rate a year before.
About 4.71 percent of current mortgage loans were more than 90 days late in the Topeka area in December, and 1.51 percent were in the foreclosure process, according to a report from CoreLogic. CoreLogic tracks approximately 85 percent of mortgages, so the actual foreclosure rate may be slightly different.

|Travelers overlook checking spare tire
|Saturday, May 11, 2013 12:29 AM
DELPHOS — Before taking off on a day trip, weekend excursion or extended vacation with a destination including sand, sun and an ocean breeze, make sure to have routine and summer maintenance performed on the vehicle being driven, prepare for prices at the pump and map out a detailed driving route.
Public Relations Manager for AAA Ohio Auto Club Kimberly Schwind said that many people don't realize that preventative vehicle maintenance goes hand-in-hand with safety. It can also end up saving them tons of money down the road.
"A small problem today can turn into a much larger, more expensive problem, if left unresolved," Schwind explained.
First and foremost, travelers need to inspect all five tires. AAA reports that one of the most frequently overlooked items on a vehicle is the spare tire. Check the tread depth and pressure of your tires and whether or not there is uneven wear. If possible, pack a real spare. If a tire blows out in the middle of nowhere, there may be quite a distance to drive on the spare.
Service Manager at Delpha Chevrolet Buick Bill Schulte says that it is important to maintain the proper tire pressure for safety reasons, as well as to save money.
"Tires inflated too high cause uneven wear; too low decreases fuel mileage," Schulte explained. "Either scenario can cause the vehicle to pull one way or the other."
Properly-inflated tires can improve fuel economy by up to three percent, which is as much as 12 cents per gallon, according to the Department of Energy. Yet, 85 percent of drivers do not know how to properly inflate their tires. Motorists should fill tires to the level indicated in the vehicle owner's manual or on the driver's side door jamb.
Before hitting the road, take the vehicle in for an oil change, proper filling of windshield washer fluid and coolant/antifreeze and an inspection of wiper blades and battery. Summer heat breaks down car batteries internally and accelerates the rate of corrosion on the vehicle's battery terminals. Both conditions can lead to insufficient electrical power and leave a motorist stranded without warning.
Schulte suggests owners have their vehicles inspected and take advantage of a summer maintenance service. The service should include inspection of the cooling system; radiator, belts and hoses, coolant, cooling fans, water pump, and heater core; and critical driving components, tie rod ends, steering equipment, ball joints, refrigerant level, and compressor clutch.
Pack an emergency kit that includes: jumper cables, flashlight, first aid, flares, water, nonperishable food, extra washer fluid, basic tools, and bottled water.
When loading the vehicle for a trip, remember to keep the driver's visibility clear, bring less than is 'necessary' and keep snack items, cameras, and the emergency kit on top of all the cargo for easy access.
During the planning of a trip close to home or an extended vacation, check out AAA's TripTik Travel Planner. It provides travelers with comprehensive driving directions, maps, hotel and auto repair shop locations, and is available in-store or online.
The AAA Mobile app for iPhone and Android-compatible devices has everything a motorist needs at their fingertips. The app includes; auto repair locator, gas station locations, updated gas price information, hotel booking, interactive maps and directions, battery replacement quotes, electric vehicle charging station locations as well as member-exclusive benefits including roadside assistance and discounts.

When Minarets seniors Hailey Zieglar and Analiese Bayt were informed of their requirement to complete a senior legacy project for graduation from Minarets High School in O'Neals they had little concept of what they wanted to do. It wasn't until Ziegler's self-appointed adviser Gege Drozen Minarets teacher and resource specialist told Ziegler to do something near and dear to her heart that the two came up with the idea of a Mountain Area Special Needs Olympics.
Ziegler, whose brother Richard Zieglar was born with Down-Syndrome, Fetal-Alcohol Syndrome and Tracheomalacia, used her experiences with Richard as inspiration to create a fun-filled day for students, adults and children of the Mountain Area community who deal with a variety of special needs issues.
"Not only growing up with a younger brother who suffers from multiple disabilities but also pursuing a career in the medical to field, specifically working with special needs children after high school gave me the desire to hold a Special Olympics called 'Dream, Believe & Acheive'," Zieglar said.
Zieglar, who plans to attend Carrington College in Sacramento as part of the dental hygienist program, says she has always had a close relationships with her brother and thought a Special Needs Olympics was the perfect opportunity to give back to the community and more specifically give back to a group of individuals she says has used as inspiration throughout her entire life.
"My goal was to provide a Special Olympics that made kids feel as if they were able to overcome anything anyone without a disability would be able to achieve, and that is what exactly happened," Zieglar said.
After months of preparation and anticipation, on Friday, April 4, as many as 100 individuals filed into the Minarets gym cheering with excitement and support as participants took on several pre-arranged events including a wheel chair race, bean bag throw, softball throwing contest, poster creating contest, hula hoop contest, tootsie pop game from a bail of hay, hopscotch and an obstacle course.
The event included special needs classes from Yosemite High School, Coarsegold, various members of the Mountain Area and an adult transition class from Liberty High School in Madera taught by Jennifer Gardner.
It was noted by several in attendance the event not only gave inspiration to those participating, but also to many students from Minarets who had not been faced with an opportunity to exposure themselves to the wide scope of special needs students and adults.
The event gave an extra ribbon of surprise to certain members of the community whose families include a special needs child, including Chawanakee Unified School District Superintendent Bob Nelson who was able to see his own child participate in the afternoon's events.
Nelson's 15-year-old, who deals with a severe case of cerebral palsy, attends Yosemite High special education class taught by Lori Blate and with his two eldest children attending Minarets Nelson is unfortunately unable to see all his children on campus. The Special Needs Olympics gave Nelson a unique opportunity to experience the excitement of having all his kids on campus at the same time.
Nelson said it was clear by the turnout and enthusiasm expressed by all in attendance that the Mountain Area needed such a warm-hearted worthwhile event. One that Nelson hopes to continue the tradition for years to come.
"This gives our special needs kids an opportunity to be acknowledge regardless where they live in the Mountain Area and this is something we hope to sustain and maintain for the future," Nelson said. "Hailey did a masterful job to bring adults together in productive ways to get this project going and she also rallied her friends to get this going and now this might be here to stay and many people in then community."
Minarets Principal Michael Niehoff backed Nelson's thought that the project is something that they will look to continue for years to come.
"This event, in particular, was a special one as it brought such smiles to all of the participants. We hope it continues in the future as a legacy for our school and community," said Niehoff. "Minarets is extremely proud to host an even like this and to have it be facilitated by students."
The days events concluded with an awards ceremony in which everyone who attended was acknowledged for their unique contributions and desire to achieve despite obstacles they are faced with in their competition and everyday life.
Zieglar expressed gratitude for the people who made the event possible and was adamant on how much of the success relied on individual volunteers inside and outside of the school. Zieglar said if it was not for the help of so many she may not have been able to pull off such a touching, successful event aimed at bringing the community together.
"I would like to thank all the donors who donated their own money into my senior legacy experience and a special thanks for all of the volunteers who stepped up and made the event possible. I am so grateful to have all of the Minarets High School students and out of school volunteers who stepped up and helped me out, I couldn't have done it without them," Zieglar said.

GRAYSON CO. -- Texas' District 13-4A is a mess. Three teams tied for first, three more tied in fourth, and Royse City and Greenville left all but out of it.
Heading into last Friday, Denison was in the district driver's seat, but their 56-42 road loss to last year's 13-4A champ has them knotted up with Wylie and Wylie East.
Sherman meanwhile is working their way back into it. They're 2-2 in district play and tied for that final playoff spot with Lovejoy and McKinney North.
It's too complicated right now to speculate, so for now we'll sit back and watch it unravel.
"A lot of even teams, some teams have really good defense, some teams have a really good offense, but there's really not that one team that has both right now, and just everything matters in everbody's mind," senior Bearcat running back Tre Mask said.
"This is not a district that you can say, 'well, you beat that guy, you beat that guy, you can beat this guy.' You don't start comparing that stuff like that. You've got to worry about one game at a time and you got to get better, we have to get better," Denison head coach Chad Rogers added.
Sherman will take on Lovejoy Friday night at Bearcat Stadium, while Denison will host Wylie. Both kick-offs at 7:30.

The instruments used in the NAEP U.S. history assessment are composed of blocks of cognitive items from the previous NAEP assessment, as well as blocks that are newly developed for the current assessment. Administering the same blocks of items across years allows for the reporting of trends in U.S. history performance. At the same time, developing new sets of items makes it possible to release some items for public use. In some assessment years, one or more blocks at each grade are released to the public and can be accessed via the NAEP Questions Tool.
The NAEP U.S. history framework guides the item development efforts. Items are written by the NAEP item development staff, members of the U.S. History Assessment Standing Committee (see the current committee members), and elementary, secondary, and postsecondary teachers around the country. All assessment materials are reviewed by specialists in U.S. history education, measurement, assessment development, and bias. The cognitive items are assembled into 25-minute blocks, with one 50-minute block at grade 12. The blocks contain a range of questions covering four historical themes:
Democracy—change and continuity in American democracy: ideas, institutions, practices, and controversies;
Cultures—the gathering and interactions of peoples, cultures, and ideas;
Technology—economic and technological changes and their relation to society, ideas, and the environment; and
World Role—the changing role of America in the world.
Following approval from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), the blocks are assembled into booklets and shipped to schools for the administration of the assessment.

Games dominate BBC sport award list
7:20pm Monday 26th November 2012 in National News © Press Association 2014
Olympic and Paralympic champions dominate the shortlist for the BBC Sports Personality of the Year award.
Tennis ace Andy Murray, cyclists Sir Chris Hoy and Bradley Wiggins, athletes Mo Farah and David Weir, sailor Ben Ainslie plus golfer Rory McIlroy are in the mix for the coveted top award.
Heptathlete Jessica Ennis, cyclist Sarah Storey, boxer Nicola Adams, swimmer Ellie Simmonds and rower Katherine Grainger are also in the running.
Not a single woman made it on to last year's final shortlist despite a strong year of competition.
The controversy triggered a review of the process for this year's event, which has also produced a shortlist that includes two more sports personalities than usual. An expert panel has also been introduced.
After a golden summer of home-grown sport including the London 2012 Games, the event promises to be the biggest in the programme's 59-year history. It will be held at London's ExCeL centre on December 16.

Sam Allardyce did the job last season for West Ham United and secured the Hammers' return to the top flight despite a late season slump that forced them into the Championship playoffs. With that done, the real work begins for Big Sam as the illustrious duo of Gold & Sullivan will expect him to keep them in the Premier League.
A ton of faces from the promoted side have moved on in the off-season including goalkeeper Robert Green (who signed with QPR), Julien Faubert, Frank Nouble, Freddie Sears and Abdoulaye Faye all on free transfers. John Carew and Papa Bouba Diop were outright released. At first glance, it's not exactly a list that should concern anyone, right?
The incoming transfer list is just as robust, as you might expect from anew promoted side. Big Sam replaced Green with Jussi Jaaskelainen, his trusted keeper from his Bolton days. Modibo Maiga is the big money signing so far, joining the Hammers from Sochaux. West Ham managed to beat Newcastle to his signature and he'll battle for minutes up front with trusted strikers Ricardo Vaz Te and Carlton Cole. Alou Diarra, a defensive midfielder, was also signed from Marseille.
Defenders James Collins and George McCartney were added to provide some experience in the back and Mohamed Diame will compete with Diarra for playing time. Basically, there is a plethora of new faces in claret and blue and how well everyone integrates will determine West Ham's success this season. Rocket science, I tell you!
The new signings combined with a strong roster that features the previously mentioned Vaz Te and Cole, along with captain Kevin Nolan, Mark Noble and Matt Taylor, should allow West Ham to avoid the relegation fray. The ambitious ownership should also help ensure that Allardyce, who has never relegated a team from the Premier League, will have the resources he needs to keep the Hammers where they want to be, which is not back in the Championship.
The pressure will be on Big Sam to get results and help reestablish West Ham's place in the top flight of English football. The fans of the club are not all completely on-board with him as the manager, so he'll have to prove to them, along with the owners that he's the man to lead West Ham forward. It's a situation he should be used to. There's also going to be the added weight of West Ham being the likely new tenant for the Olympic Stadium, a home Gold & Sullivan will likely want being showcased in the Premier League.
It should be an interesting year in East London.
Last year: 3rd (nPower Championship); 24W 14D 8L.
This year: 15th; Really it's all about staying up this year and West Ham should be able to do that.
Key player(s): Kevin Nolan. The experienced midfielder who somewhat surprisingly signed with West Ham last summer, proving he really really likes helping teams get promoted from the Championship (he'd done the same with Newcastle in 2010. More likely he wanted to reunite with Big Sam, who he'd played under at Bolton. Nolan, the team captain, helped guide West Ham back to the Premier League and he'll be looked to as the leader of this Hammers roster.

Find and book great restaurantsFind a Restaurant
Nottingham's most famous son continues to attract tourists seeking out the authentic Robin Hood experience, although only the restored gatehouse and some foundations remain of Nottingham Castle. However, modern Nottingham has much to offer – the city reputedly has more restaurants, bars, pubs and clubs per square mile than any city in Europe. The Lace Market and adjoining Hockley Village are the best areas for nightlife, but good restaurants in Nottingham are spread throughout the city. Iberico World Tapas is a hugely popular, effortlessly stylish venue, Larwood and Voce a handy gastropub backing on to the famous Trent Bridge cricket ground, and there are several good-quality Indian restaurants competing for business along Maid Marian Way – the cavernous MemSaab is consistently popular. For a special occasion, Hart's Restaurant is well worth the drive through the fiendish one-way system, or seek out Michelin-starred Restaurant Sat Bains on the outskirts of the city.

One of our favorite Japanese imports, retailer Uniqlo, is about to set up shop in Paris's infamous retailer, colette (no relation to our Colette). The temporary pop up shop runs from August through September.
Uniqlo is a Japanese retailer specializing metropolitan urban city wear and hip design heavy packaging. If you are ever in New York, drop by their NYC location. They also take the prize for having the most crazily confusing and possibly longest site on the web. The NYC location has been a long supporter of Om. They also have perhaps some of the most unique and hilarious marketing campaigns.
Visit www.uniqlo.com to check out possibly the most content heavy, longest website, and find out more about the Uniqlo x Colette pop up store.
