The chemical spill of Jan. 9 that caused a water crisis for approximately 300,000 West Virginia America Water customers in nine counties caught the attention of Los Angeles-based Cullen Hoback, a film director with Hyrax Films.
He, along with four crew members, has been in West Virginia filming a documentary that should be out by the end of 2014, "depending on how all of this evolves," Hoback said.
The title of the project has not been determined yet.
"Right now, it's 'American Water,' but I don't know what it's going to end up being," Hoback said. "I was in Los Angeles, and it seemed that everything happening with the (West Virginia) water crisis was being wildly unreported, especially on the national level.
"It's actually hard to find stories on what is happening here. That led me to ask the question 'Why?' I wondered why so many national news organizations were ignoring what I consider and what very well may be the largest (chemical) spill affecting drinking water in recent history."
Hoback said he thought the situation seemed to be a massive state of emergency without much talk about it.
"The situation is really complicated," he said. "I like to tackle really complex things. I want to answer the question — How did this happen? It's not as simple as pointing a finger at Freedom Industries.
"It's a complicated question that takes a documentary to answer."
The magnitude of a water crisis is not lost on Hoback.
"What's happening in and around Charleston, West Virginia, is really a symbol for all of America, and perhaps, the world," he said. "A lot hangs in the balance here.
"The takeaway is largely going to be dependant on the outcome."
As the process is playing out in front of his film crew, Hoback says he is alarmed that some of the principals have been largely unavailable for comment.
"It still shocks me that Freedom Industries has been completely AWOL in this whole process," he said. "West Virginia American Water has been a little more present.
"I'm still trying to get an interview with them (as of Feb. 21). When you look at the town hall (meetings) — who were the empty chairs? It was Freedom Industries and West Virginia American Water. These are the companies that people want to be held accountable — especially Freedom Industries. I think it shows a real carelessness until now, that they haven't come out and shown any empathy."
The resilience of West Virginians is legendary — and true, as Hoback has found out firsthand.
"Everyone that I've talked to here has been just so strong," he said. "The people that I've talked to understand … but they want things to be normal again. They want to know the water is safe to drink.
"The hardest part for people is that bottled water becomes really expensive. A lot of people can't afford to go out and keep buying bottled water, and they certainly can't afford it to shower in. That's a really unfair position to put people in.
"For me that's been the hardest part, to see the hardship that this has put on families."
The hospitality of West Virginians, also well-known, also has impacted Hoback, he said.
"I'm coming in here and asking questions and learning from the people that I'm talking to," he said. "I'm not coming in with any pre-conceived notions. I had no idea what to expect. Every day the situation evolves, I learn something different.
"People have been very open to me, letting me into their homes, talking about their situation. That has been very rewarding, being able to connect with people."

PEORIA, Ill. -- The IHSA announced Wednesday that they have completed its investigation into the 2013 IHSA Class 2A Boys Basketball State Championship game between Harrisburg High School and Seton Academy and has announced sanctions resulting from that investigation.
Seton Hall coach Brandon Thomas has been suspended for next season. Harrisburg coach Randy Smithpeters faces suspension if he does not complete a behavioral program.
Both coaches face probation for next season.
The contest officials have been reprimanded for failure to enforce the bench conduct rule during the championship game.
There is no change in the status of the 2nd place state trophy that Seton Academy left behind in Peoria. That trophy remains at the IHSA office in Bloomington.
Coach Thomas' suspension comes as a result of incidents that occurred at halftime and in the post-game awards ceremony, when the coach bypassed offers of congratulations from the IHSA Board of Directors and the Governor of Illinois.
The report says that he then threw his medal to an assistant coach and exited the court, where he engaged in a verbal altercation with a fan and had to be restrained from entering the stands by security and police.
The IHSA says that the Harrisburg sanctions come as a result of the actions by Coach Smithpeters, especially during the first half of the contest.

Can a condo be a church or synagogue?
- 4:34 pm Thursday, March 3rd, 2011 by Opinion Staff
On Thursday, Palm Beach Post columnist Frank Cerabino reported on the dispute in Century Village over whether an Orthodox Jewish group should be able to use a condominium for its religious meetings.
Those in favor and those opposed packed a Palm Beach County code enforcement hearing, only to have the issue postponed.
Issac Feder, a snowbird from Monroe, N.Y., owns two condo units at Century Village. He lives in one but has used the other for religious meetings. His lawyer says he also lives sometimes in the second unit – a fact that could have a bearing on whether the religious meetings are allowed. Other residents complain the group uses condo pools for cleansing rituals.

The Baltimore Ravens are about the last franchise you'd expect to fail to get a NFL Draft pick in on time, considering how strong Ozzie Newsome's track record is. But with their No. 26 selection, they took too much time and were forced to pass, giving the Kansas City Chiefs the No. 26 pick and the chance to grab Pittsburgh Panthers WR Jonathan Baldwin.
That No. 27 pick has been through quite a few hands. It started out in the possession of the Atlanta Falcons, who traded it to the Cleveland Browns as a part of the Julio Jones deal. The Browns then sent it to KC.
Apparently Baltimore was working on a trade with the Chicago Bears, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, but weren't able to get it done on time. The Ravens did eventually get a pick in, taking Colorado Buffaloes DB Jimmy Smith.

TEAMS of walkers are being urged to take part in Oxford's first Cancer Research Relay for Life.
Groups of between eight and 15 people are urged to sign up to take it in turns throughout the night to walk a circuit in the grounds of Oxford Rugby Club over the weekend of July 19.
Cash raised by groups of work colleagues, friends and families will go to Cancer Research UK.
Teams can pitch a tent at the site in North Hinksey Lane, North Hinksey Village, and each member will take a turn to walk around the track while the rest of the group join organised activities.
At dusk a Candle of Hope ceremony will take place where special bags decorated with message in memory of a loved one.
A candle will be put inside each bag and they will then line the relay track.

Remember Sunderland from last season? That is the exact same Sunderland team you're going to get this season.
While people around football have spent the last decade complaining about the amount of money in the game and the lack of loyalty, the Black Cats have turned amazingly retro. They have signed just two players all summer, defender Carlos Cuellar and striker Louis Saha, and both came on free transfers. As of August 16, Sunderland have not paid for a single player all summer.
But if this year's Martin O'Neill Sunderland is the same as last year's Martin O'Neill Sunderland then the Black Cats will be just fine. They were dreadful early in the season under Steve Bruce, but he got the axe and O'Neill turned the squad around.
For the first two months under O'Neill, Sunderland was as good as any team in the league. From December 11 until February 10 they lost just two matches in all competitions and went from relegation threatened to challenging for a spot in the top half.
As is his M.O., O'Neill didn't do anything fancy. The team played in a 4-4-1-1 or 4-4-2, was compact at the back and pretty much proved every stereotype of British football, but it was mighty effective.
Sunderland allowed just 46 goals last season and should be just as tough in defense with the same defensive-minded approach. Their question is what do they do for goals.
Whoever O'Neil turns to up front will be key. Asamoah Gyan has made his move to Al Ain permanent and Nicklas Bendtner's loan is up, leaving the Black Cats without much at striker. Whether it is Saha, Frazier Campbell or a possible signing -- Jermain Defoe and Steven Fletcher have both been linked to Sunderland -- the team will only go as far as whoever plays up top takes them.
Goals will be tough to come by at the Stadium of Light for both teams and that is probably fine for the Black Cats. It is important to keep the club's stature in perspective and maintain realistic expectations. It was only a decade ago that they finished with just 19 points and were sent down. Now they are working on their sixth straight season in the top flight and that alone is an accomplishment.
O'Neill may not thrill anyone, but his teams get results and this Black Cats team should get enough results to be right there in the middle of the table. That is plenty good at Sunderland.
Last Year: 13th, 11 W, 12 D, 15 L
This Year: 9th
Key player(s): Stephane Sessegnon was fantastic last season, turning in eight goals and nine assists on a team that scored just 45 goals all year. Sitting in the hole underneath whoever started up top, Sessegnon was asked to do almost all of the creative work for Sunderland and he did. This season, he'll be asked to do exactly the same and if he isn't just as good as he was last season then the team will be completely devoid of imagination.

The Kansas Department of Motor Vehicles in Mission is extending its summertime hours.
Starting Monday, the driver licensing stations in Mission, 6507 Johnson Dr., and Wichita's Twin Lakes location will be open Mondays, 8 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. through Aug. 26 to improve customer service.
Officials hope the extra hours will help ease the long lines at the state's busiest offices.
The additional hours will require no additional staff.
"During the summer, our offices are crowded as teenagers come in to get permits and licenses while they are out of school. This year, applications for concealed carry permits have also more than doubled adding the traffic," Vehicles Director Donna Shelite said in a written statement. "While this can increase wait times at all of our offices, it is particularly problematic in our urban areas."
Shelite said last summer, they opened the Olathe and Wichita offices up on Monday for the first time since the state switched to the four-day workweek almost 20 years ago
"Being open those eight Mondays allowed us to serve an additional 4,556 customers - including 212 drive tests which take about three times as long to administer than normal transactions," she explained.
Shelite is hoping that Monday hours are just as successful this year.

Central City, La. – New Orleans fire fighters battled a 3-alarm fire early Wednesday morning.
Fire Chief Timothy McConnell said they were called to the intersection of First Street and Danneel Street around 4:30 a.m.
An unoccupied building was fully engulfed in flames. The fire spread to two adjacent houses, causing severe damage. Three families, 12 people in all, were displaced. No one was injured.
Temperatures were below freezing at the time the fire started. McConnell commended his crew for working in such harsh conditions.
He said the cause of the fire is under investigation.
A neighbor told FOX 8 the house the fire originally started in had been blighted since before Hurricane Katrina. The fire completely destroyed the empty building.

Future Battlespace Situational Awareness is the third workshop in an ongoing series of workshops conducted by the National Research Council's Committee for Science and Technology Challenges to U.S. National Security Interests. The first two workshops looked at individual technologies related to "big" data and future antennas and provided context for the topic addressed in the third workshop—the planning of a future warfare scenario. The objectives for the third workshop were to review technologies that enable battlespace situational awareness 10-20 years into the future for red and blue forces; and emphasize the capabilities within air, land, sea, space, and cyberspace.
The workshop was held on May 30-31, 2012, in Suffolk, Virginia, at the Lockheed Martin Center for Innovation. The sessions were not open to the public because they involved discussions of classified material, including data addressing vulnerabilities, indicators, and observables. This series of workshops address U.S. and foreign research, why S&T applications of technologies in development are important in the context of military capabilities, and what critical scientific breakthroughs are needed to achieve advances in the fields of interest— focusing detailed attention on specific developments in the foregoing fields that might have national security implications for the United States. These workshops also consider methodology to track the relevant technology landscape for the future.
The three workshops feature invited presentations and panelists and include discussions on a selected topic including themes relating to defense warning and surprise. Future of Battlespace Situational Awareness summarizes the third workshop.

I upgraded to 8.0.2 yesterday and I can't send any e-mails.
First I got the problem when connecting to the OpenDKIM over IPv6 (there was a forum post with a link to the bugtracker somewhere) which I fixed with the temporary fix in the bug notice now this part works.
But the postfix tries to send the email itself. I configured sender based routing like described here: Configure postfix in ZCS v8 as theres no postmap command
That worked perfectly until 8.0.2. I looked at the main.cf and the entries are in the config, so zimbra writes them properly but somehow postfix ignores it and tries to send the mails itself.
Since I can't find anything about this on the forums or the bugtracker I want to ask if someone has the same problem and found a solution about it?

Be Critical
Critically Analyzing Information Sources (Cornell)
Doing good research requires different skills than searching. Searching online encourages ways of thinking that can create false expectations and poor research results. Here are a few tips:
- Slow down.
- Look at the advanced search page
- Iterative searching
- Learn from the search results
- Too many results? Too few?
- Look at citations from good sources
- Try
- Various keywords
- Various subjects
- Multiple databases (information silos!)
Searching for scholarly sources
- choose the right database
- limit results to "peer-reviewed" sources

By Ryan Michael Painter
(KUTV) It's been a good year for documentaries. Here are a few that really stood out.
1.Room 237
Rodney Ascher's documentary about the "hidden meanings" contained within Stanley Kubrick's film "The Shining" is a fascinating journey through a variety of theories as to what the legendary director was really trying to say with his loose adaptation of Stephen King's novel. Sometimes what is true isn't nearly as interesting as what might be true.
2.Indie Game: The Movie
James Swirsky and Lisanne Pajot have created a film that examines what is to be an artist in the modern world where the difference between success and bankruptcy is a question of talent, dedication and a whole lot of luck. Worth seeing even if you have no interest in video games whatsoever.
3.The Imposter
In 1997 con-artist Frederic Bourdin posed as Nicholas Barclay, a 13-year-old boy who went missing in Texas in 1994. Claiming his abductors had taken him to Spain Bourdin was returned to the Barclay family who seemingly believed that he was their son. In the case of "The Imposter," truth is much stranger than fiction.
4. The Invisible War
Kirby Dick's documentary about sexual assault in the United States military and how the victims may have been further victimized by counter-effective policies is difficult to watch, but that makes it all the more important.
5. How to Survive a Plague
David France's film chronicles the efforts of activist groups ACT UP and TAG in the early days of the AIDS epidemic as they fought for access to new drugs, experimental treatments and basic civil rights.
6. Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry
Alison Klayman profiles Chinese artist and outspoken human rights activist Ai Weiwei. It's nice to be reminded that art, experimental or otherwise, can still be revolutionary and impossible to ignore.
7. Jiro Dreams of Sushi

A City of Tampa employee was in jail Thursday on charges of unlawful sex with a minor, according to a Tampa Police report.
Police told us, they received a tip from the City of Tampa Human Resources Department in March about one of its employees' suspicious behavior. After a successful undercover operation they arrested Demetrio Rivera, 68, of Tampa.
Detectives said, they watched Rivera pick up a 16-year-old girl and bring her to the City of Tampa Woodlands Wastewater Pump Station at 6515 Wood Branch Dr. That's where they arrested him with his pants unfastened.
TPD officers believe Rivera had relationships with three other girls. They told us he became friends with the young girls who had no male role model and took advantage of them.
Rivera's position involved preventative and corrective maintenance at wastewater pumping stations. He started working for the City of Tampa on January 1, 1987.
He is in jail on two counts of unlawful sex with a minor, eight counts of lewd and lascivious behavior, and one count traveling to meet a minor.

Family pays tribute to camp tragedy girl
The family of a teenager killed in a campsite tragedy thought to have been caused by a disposable barbecue have spoken about their "unimaginable sadness" about her death.
In a statement issues through police, relatives of Hannah Thomas-Jones described the 14-year-old's death as a tragic accident:
Hannah was a beautiful, intelligent, talented sister, daughter, cousin and granddaughter. She was a talented pianist, a sportswoman and had a wonderful warming sense of humour. Hannah was an adorable teenager who will be missed with unimaginable sadness.
Hannah will be forever in our and many people's memories. The joy that she gave in the short period she graced this earth was a blessing to all. We miss and love her so very, very much."

Building offices on the corner of Page Mill and El Camino is a no-brainer (as is the proposed project on Page Mill on the other side of the street. Although there is are some apartment/condo complexes nearby and a few small houses, this is really a commercial and office area, not residential.
I understand the concerns of the Sunrise Assisted living next door, but I suspect their primary concern is losing "their" parking lot.
on Feb 7, 2013 at 10:47 am
What ever they build please make it aesthetically pleasing not generic. Build something beautiful, unique, exiting... Not another box please! I will have to drive by it every day. How traffic won't be impacted.
on Feb 7, 2013 at 10:48 am
As I read it, the plan is to bribe the city into allowing the zoning exception by "a contribution of $750,000 toward upgrading the lights on the soon-to-be-renovated commercial stretch of California Avenue."
Hah!!! Lighting five blocks away!
This seems typical of our Palo Alto zoning exception activity.

Charles Carmouche hit five 3-pointers on his way to a season-high 21 points, and the Tigers won for the fifth time in six games while handing Mississippi State its 10th straight loss, 80-68, on Saturday. Carmouche was one of five players to score in double digits for the Tigers (15-8, 6-6 Southeastern Conference), who shot 54.5 percent (30 of 55) and led by as many as 20 points several times in the second half. Andrew Del Piero scored a career-high 13 points, while Anthony Hickey, Johnny O'Bryant III and Andre Stringer each scored 10. O'Bryant also grabbed 11 rebounds. Freshman guard Craig Sword scored a season-high 24 points for the Bulldogs (7-17, 2-10), who shot 46.4 percent (26 of 56) but were hurt by 4-of-17 shooting from 3-point range. Colin Borchert added 11 points and Gavin Ware 10.(Copyright 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.)

The Walker Art Center presents the exhibition Trisha Brown: So That the Audience
Does Not Know Whether I Have Stopped Dancing, the centerpiece of a spectrum of

Review: Balti Stan, Clayton-le-Moors
10:52am Wednesday 2nd January 2013 in Latest restaurant reviews By Anna Mansell, Features writer
ON moving to East Lancashire, we lived near Balti Stan, and colleagues were quick to recommend it as a favourite curry house.
More than three years after moving house, we were treating my dad to a birthday tea and he fancied a curry. With horrific rain falling, we didn't fancy going too far so it seemed a sensible choice.
Staff were quick to greet us with warm smiles.
Poppadums and chutneys stopped tummies from rumbling before our starters arrived, of a mixed kebab, onion bhaji and meat samosa. My husband was not sharing his shish, chicken tikka and samosa offering, so dad and I swapped bhajis and samosas — all of which were crisp, non-greasy and tasty.
Rattling up to the table next were our mains, served from the trolley and over plate warmers. The lamb in my rogan josh was plentiful and delightfully tender, but the sauce lacked a bit of oomph on the heat and general seasoning, but the garlic nan certainly made up for lack of big flavours. Items like this and the starter snacks really show the difference between Indian restaurant food and takeaways.
Dad's birthday bhuna was devoured with a couple of chappatis and little conversation — a good sign, while I made the most of the sauce from my husband's chicken tikka masala with my nan.
Service throughout was attentive without being intrusive and a Christmas soundtrack added to a fairly quiet mid-week atmosphere.
The bill came to £70, with drinks and side dishes, which we were happy with for an albeit last minute, special occasion.

People around New Zealand require cash loans for a number of reasons. The main reason why people require money in a hurry is that they have an urgent home maintenance job that cannot wait or their vehicle broke down and they cannot get to and from work.
The problem is that obtaining cash loans in NZ isn't as easy as it used to be. Up until a year or so ago, you could walk into your bank, fill out an application and meet with the bank manager and the money would be in your account within a day or two.
This has resulted in most household maxing out their credit cards and then still being unable to pay for the urgent repairs or items that they need. Going to their bank isn't an option because bank lending procedures have become so strict that they are declining more applications than approvals.
Search Online
The only solution is to apply to an online financial provider. Online financial providers are mostly private companies that offer financial solutions to households that need cash loans in NZ.
One of these companies is Yes Finance, a leader in the New Zealand financial industry. Yes Finance has been helping New Zealand residents with secured and unsecured loans since 1997 and approve more applications than they decline.
The main focus of Yes Finance is to ensure that you can pay back the amount you are borrowing. They take a number of factors into consideration to see if they can help you. This improves the odds of you being approved.
Yes Finance take age, employment status and credit history, along with some other factors into consideration and then make a quick and informed decision so that the NZ cash loans you have applied for can reach your bank account in the shortest space of time.
With Yes Finance there is an easy and quick online application which must be completed in full to be considered for a loan. All applicants must be over eighteen and be New Zealand residents or have a valid work permit.
The cash loans NZ that they offer are payable over one to three years, depending on the amount of the loan and the terms you both agree to. This financial provider offers unsecured loans up to $2,000 and secured loans between $500 and $25,000.
There is a difference between the two and unsecured loans will require you have an excellent credit history as no security is taken to secure the loan. Secured loans are easier to have approved as you put down some form of security against the loan, reducing the risk to Yes Finance and ensuring you get the money you need in a hurry.
With the easy applicant process offered by Yes Finance, more New Zealand residents are getting the money they need without delay. Payments are taken in monthly instalments by direct debit, which automatically reduces the risk of forgetting to make a payment or being late with a payment, both of which could damage your credit history.Tags: cash loans nz

Business Network International or BNI as it is most commonly know is a great source of generating referral leads for your business.
We're in the midst of a recession and many people are looking to join business groups to try and drum up sales. But with all of the Internet's business networking opportunities, are offline business networking organizations still needed?
The world's largest business networking organization is the famous Business Network International (BNI). BNI groups are everywhere. Pick up a newspaper in any major city and you will find invitations to join these groups in your local community. Use a search engine with "your location" and "bni" as search terms and you will probably find one nearby.
The format consists of weekly breakfast meetings starting at 7 am and at 8.30 am. Each group is made up of one member of each trade or profession and the objective is for the members of the group to look out for business opportunities for each other and pass referrals.
If you go to any BNI breakfast meeting anywhere in the world you will experience the same format to every meeting and the running of the group. The successful groups are the ones that follow the system rigidly and in the spirit of Givers GainBNIs mantra.
You need to commit to understanding other people within the group and looking out for business opportunities for them. It takes time to understand another's business and develop enough trust to be able to recommend with confidence which is why meeting regularly with other at their place of busienss is essential.
If you have a group full of committed business networkers following the system like at bestbusiness.co.nz then BNI really works

Dozens of people showed up at a rally at the Lakeland police department Saturday evening, to show support for members of the force.
More than a dozen city employees have been fired or resigned, after a department-wide sex scandal investigation.
Then last week, officer Julio Pagan was arrested for sexually battering a woman while on duty.
State attorney Jerry Hill says something has to change.
He says the scandals are compromising service to the people of Lakeland.
Hill sent a three-page letter to city manager Doug Thomas, outlining the issues within Lakeland, and recommending top to bottom changes.
Saturday's rally was held in response to that letter.
Residents who attended told Fox 13 they stand behind the men and women who serve in the department.
Neighborhood activist Deane Palmer says that there are many dedicated officers within the police department, and they should not be judged by the actions of the police officers named in the recent sex scandals.
"It's scandalous to tar everyone with those statements, but what is really important is that the citizens don't feel that way, we support LPD, we have pride in it, we have confidence in it," Palmer said.

By declining the New Jersey Nets' max contract extension offer, Deron Williams is eligible for an additional $30 million in guaranteed salary, provided he signs with the Nets as an unrestricted free agent in 2012.
NetsDaily has done the math. Under the new collective bargaining agreement -- which still hasn't been set in stone -- the Nets can currently offer Williams a two-year extension on his existing contract, which would pay out $39 million over 2013-14 and 2014-15. He's owed $31 million over 2011-12 and 2012-13, provided he would pick up the player option required to extend at this point.
If he instead waits for free agency, he can sign a $100 million contract for five seasons.
Williams could also, of course, choose another team in free agency, or request that the Nets trade him by the deadline. His situation remains completely fluid, and there's a good amount of pressure on Nets GM Billy King to add some firepower to the team before opening night to keep Williams from thinking the team is stuck in lose mode.

|Letter to the Editor
|Saturday, June 29, 2013 12:02 AM
I oppose so-called "right to work" legislation because it's misguided and harmful to workers and the middle class. The same CEOs and corporate interests who brought you Senate Bill 5 are supporting these dangerous attacks on workers. Just like SB 5, these policies put profits before people and are an unsafe, unfair attack on us all.
The far-reaching consequences of these policies are clear: in states where workers' rights are denied, workplace fatalities are 36 percent higher and household incomes are $6,437 a year less than other states. Our everyday heroes like firefighters, police officers, teachers, nurses and many others deserve fair wages and safe working conditions, not policies that will lower their pay and compromise their safety.
So-called "right to work" is wrong — don't trust it.

Rosslyn Park must wait for title decider
4:36pm Wednesday 16th April 2014 in Sport By Sports reporter
Rosslyn Park fans face an agonising wait before the defining weekend of the National League One season.
Park have gone toe to toe with professional outfit Doncaster Knights all season and find themselves just three points adrift of their rivals with one game remaining.
However, the two teams take a break this weekend before Knights go to Blackheath and Park host Cinderford the weekend after.
Last Saturday Park ran in 10 tries, including four from wing Tom Howe, to see off already relegated Hull Ionians 60-12.
Doncaster also managed a win, although it only arrived in the 80th minute with a converted try seeing them edge past third-placed Coventry 18-17.
Codling said: "It is bizarre to have a week off and then a one-off game.
"It's at home, so we can get a big crowd around us, we had a really positive game last time out against Coventry so we'll be looking for the same again."
Joining Howe on the scoresheet at Hull were Alex Lundberg, David Vincent, Tom Baldwin, Harry Broadbent, Scott Sneddon and Sam Shires.
