Customer Reviews
By: Desertgardener from Arizona on 06/16/2014This projector is great! Easy to operate and assemble. I put it on a small table but learned that I needed to clamp the back of the base to the table because the "projector head" is quite top heavy! Arrived quickly. Price is just right. Thanks Madison!

James Franco Lends His Pretty Face to Ford's Super Bowl Ad
James Franco will be starring in a Ford (NYSE:F) commercial during the Super Bowl that promises to be "no ordinary commercial" — and for the steep fee that Ford had to pay to land both Franco and a Super Bowl XLVIII slot, the company better hope it's no ordinary commercial.
The Ford ad also stars actor Rob Riggle and a tiger. Franco will be playing an alternative version of Riggle during the latter 60 seconds of the 90-second ad for the Ford Fusion; Riggle will play himself during the first 30 seconds. The commercial is set to air during the less-expensive slot between the coin toss and the kickoff of the game. Commercials airing during the game after kickoff sold for about $4 million per 30 seconds, according to Ad Age.
"This is no ordinary commercial. In fact, this has never been done before in the history of commercials," Franco says while hanging out in a mansion with a tiger in the 15-second teaser for the ad.
Franco spoke about the commercial in an interview with Variety. "I know Super Bowl commercials are really big deals. Many are like mini-movies nowadays, with high production values and really good concepts. It sounded like it would be fun. … It had comedy in it, so it felt like there was enough self-awareness built in," he said. "It's actually kind of a fun and exciting place to work, because you get to do a lot of things that you can't really do on a low-budget film and it's not a huge time commitment."
The actor is known for his bizarre project choices, from blockbusters to comedies to soap operas and indie films. Franco told Variety that he currently has two projects in the works, one with Seth Rogan called The Interview in which he plays a journalist who gets the chance to interview North Korean leader Kim Jung-Un and one directed by Werner Herzog and co-starring Nicole Kidman called Queen of the Desert.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have demoted defensive coordinator Jim Bates. Head coach Raheem Morris will take over as the team's defensive coordinator.
Hours after the news broke regarding the significant change at One Buc Place, Tampa Bay's players reacted. Morris also fielded questions from media regarding the demotion of Bates, a move that comes two and a half months after offensive coordinator Jeff Jagodzinski was fired.
Here is the Q&A transcript from Morris' press conference on Tuesday.
On the thought process of demoting Jim Bates and taking over as defensive coordinator:
"Everything we do around here is based on progress. Right now, we feel like we're in a position to make progress and move on. That's the thought process and that's what we're doing."
When asked about his comments last week that suggested his players weren't good fits for Bates' defensive scheme and today's move coming one week later:
"There was never a decision on scheme. There's nothing wrong with the scheme or the players. Obviously, every day you're trying to improve your 53-man roster. That's what you're talking about. The whole idea here is to progress and move on. There's no better time to do that than right now."
On how much of a change will take place in the transition from Bates' scheme to the one Morris will run:
"I'm not going to get into schemes because I don't want to let Atlanta know anything. It won't be much of a change. There will be a little more of a Raheem Morris influence. That's what I plan to do."
On whether this is more of a play-calling issue on game days or a scheme issue:
"It's a play-calling feel. We have some coverages we can use and some different things we can try and to. That's what we're going to do."
On Bates' role now that he's been demoted, noting he wasn't at Tuesday's practice:
"We're going to make sure that it works for both of us, first of all. We were able to talk this morning. He's definitely helping me right now. When you talk about Jim Bates, you're talking about one of the most respected guys in this league, one of the most respected minds in this league, and my friend. We've done a great job of sitting down and trying to hash it out. It's still in pending mode. He's helping me and I'm helping him."
On whether Bates will remain with the Bucs for the remainder of the season:
"It's still a wait-and-see deal. We're working together."
On who made the call to change coordinators on the defensive side of the ball:
"It's my call. It's my call and my job to make sure we progress. I'm doing everything I can to make that happen."
When explaining why he chose to demote Bates and take over as defensive coordinator:
"It's looking at the results. We're judged everyday on results. We all will be and we all are. We weren't getting the results. We have to go out and progress and try to get better these next six weeks."
On if he feels the defense can get better results with him as defensive coordinator or if he's trying to be accountable for the defense:
"It's always an accountability issue. The head coach is always responsible for whatever side of the ball isn't performing up to par or whatever is not going right around the building. That's my job. It's definitely an accountability issue and definitely something where I have to step up and get it done. There's no time to complain and there's no time for excuses."
When asked if he's going to play to the strengths of his personnel in the revamped scheme:
"I always want to go out and play to the strengths of what I have to work with. You also want to play to the strengths of what you think you can do against each team you play. You want to put together the best possible game plan."
On whether the personnel he has now is better suited for the Cover 2 system vs. Bates' system, noting that Chris Hovan said he will never be a two-gap player:
"I don't know if a lot of guys would say that. Chris Hovan has played a lot of years in this league, so I think that's fair for Chris to say. Right now, we're talking about the youth movement and we're talking about a bunch of young guys that don't know what they're capable of doing because they haven't played in this league long enough. Right now, those guys are playing and doing the best they can do. That's fair for Chris Hovan to say, but I don't know that would be fair for Quincy Black, Adam Hayward or some of the other guys to say."
On if the players went to him to ask for a change away from Bates:
"No, the players never quit on Jim Bates if that's the question you're asking. You can see that by their play on the field. This had nothing to do with core beliefs. The core beliefs that Jim Bates holds, that Monte Kiffin held, and I hold high regard to are all the same and all very similar. You can tell how hard they played for Jim Bates, how hard they played for us, how hard they played for themselves. There is no question. There is no doubt about that. There is no turncoat in this building. There is nobody coming to me complaining about what Jim Bates has to do, or wants to do. This is an issue of developing progress. You have to develop progress the next six weeks."
On his credibility and Dominik's credibility after replacing the two coordinators they hired in a short amount of time:
"That's a fair question, but each individual situation is completely different. That's not even a whole situation. Either situation you are talking about are separate deals and you have separate issues. You got to make your decision and stand by it. You have to do what you believe is right. This is what I believe is right."
On if the direction the team is heading in has altered:
"The direction is the same. The direction lies with the youth on the team. You talk about having three picks in the first two rounds. You talk about number five (Josh Freeman) being the quarterback for the next 10-15 years. We are going to play faster and better around him. That is the direction of this program that is the direction we are going in. We got to get there and we are on our way."
On the team getting better:
"We've just got to get better week to week. We've played hard. We've played fast. We played physical. We talk about those things. We just didn't get better every week. The big plays are still there. We haven't been able to stop the run. We got to get better at doing something, and that is what we have to set our focus on and that is something to get better at. That's what we are trying to do right now."
On how would this move make the team better.
"That is what I'm trying to figure out right now. That's why I put myself in charge of it, and why I put myself in front of everybody so I can do it."
On if the organization failed Bates in not getting him the players he needed to run his system.
"Jim Bates obviously if he had his druthers would probably have gone in another direction. But it wasn't a direction this team wanted to go. We wanted to go with a youth movement and we are there. When you are put in a job it is your responsibility to go out and do what you have to do, and go out do it to the best of your ability. That is all you can be asked to do. It is my job. I wanted to get [Albert] Haynesworth, and that didn't happen. I wanted to go out and get him as well. We didn't get those people. It didn't happen, so you have to win with the people you got. Right now we haven't, and it is directly there in the results. It is my time to go out there and try and to it my way."
On what Bates' role will be on game day.
"We are still working through all those issues, and I will update you a little more with that. Jim, like I said before, is one of the great minds of this game, one of the great minds I respect. One of the great minds I go to, to ask questions. I asked him a couple this morning. We had a long discussion this morning about the Atlanta Falcons. We are still working through what he can do and how he can help us on game day."
On his reaction to fans wondering what is going on with team.
"Yeah there is no question. It is my job to do what I think is best for this organization. That is my decision, and I have to go out there and do it. Being proactive in your decisions in your job I believe is the best thing you can do. To sit around and complain the more you talk about it, but to go out and actually do something about it is just being proactive in my opinion."
On if linebackers coach Joe Barry was considered for defensive coordinator because of all of Morris' duties as head coach:
"No. It is funny, you were hired to be a defensive coordinator a few weeks before you were hired to be head coach. You had some ideas and you had plans out there, and why throw Joe Barry out there to try and fix it the last six weeks when you feel like you can. I feel like it is my responsibility. I feel like I have to do it. I feel like it is what I'm supposed to do as a head coach, and as a man for this football team. I feel like it is what I owe this organization. What I owe this town. What I owe Mark Dominik. What I owe this ownership. It is my job to fix it, and that is what I have to go out there and do."
On why he thought it would work with Bates when he was hired:
"You know, we always dibbled and dabbled even under Monte Kiffin over the last six years. About six years, maybe five would be closer. We dibbled and dabbled with the system. The coverage matchups to some of the things that would help us get better. I know you guys have seen us dibble and dabble with quarters, with two-man, and some of those things. That's where we wanted to go. I tried to hire a guy that was a master at that stuff. I learned a lot of football from Jim Bates. There is no doubt about it. I learned a lot of football from Monte Kiffin. I thought it would be that super mega-morph that we could get together and get this thing going. And really get it rolling, and we probably still can. I'm just going to go do it, because it is my responsibility to do. I can, and will give it my best effort."
On if he had input on what Bates was doing as the defensive coordinator:
"Yes, you do, but you never put a man in a position to do a job and go in there and second-guess him on everything he does. You got to have a strong core belief of what he is doing and let him go do his job. Now it is my job to do it, and I'm willing to do it."

Can you give cats a home?
6:40pm Friday 11th January 2013 in News
THREE cats at a Malvern veterinary practice are looking for loving homes.
All three have been brought in to the Avenue Veterinary Centre over the last week. Black kitten Minnie Mouse is a neutered female aged about six months.
For those looking for a more mature cat, Marmite is a black neutered male with a long coat, who is described as very good-natured, but he has to be the only cat in his home, and Aslan is a long-haired ginger male, also about three and neutered, who is very friendly.
Anyone who can provide any of these cats with a home can call 01684 572420.

Production Resource Group, LLC (PRG) is providing a large video system for the new musical, Lestat, which begins previews at the Palace Theatre in March after completing out-of-town tryouts in San Francisco. The video system for the production was specified by Howard Werner of Lightswitch New York, who selected PRG's Mbox Extreme media server for control and playback of all of the video content in the show. The research and development team at PRG expanded the media server's features to meet Lestat's requirements. "We developed the ability to soft edge blend imagery, to synchronize Mbox Extremes, and to play larger, higher definition files," comments Werner, who worked with the R&D team.
In San Francisco, Lestat used a total of 13 video projectors: nine Digital Projection Dsx+ 12000, three Digital Projection Lightning 35HD, and one Christie LX 100. The nine 12K projectors were stacked three high and three wide at the back wall of the theatre.
"With Mbox Extreme you can divide a video file over nine projectors, and play them synchronously from the DMX console to create a seamless panorama," notes PRG vice president Anne Johnston.
Many of the rear-projected images were 1024x768, which can be a challenging size for smooth playback when using multiple layers. Smooth playback was particularly critical in Lestat because projectors were tiled, with multiple projectors creating one image. The 35HD projectors in the front of house played even larger files because the projected images required higher resolution.
"We needed to develop a highly refined edge-blending capability in Mbox Extreme, which could be changed from cue to cue, since the projection surfaces in the show are not stationary," explains Johnston. "In addition, we wrote custom software that let us take control of the projector features (on/off, shutter, remote focus, lens shift) from the lighting console, so that lens moves could be recorded into cues."
The result has been stunning. "It's reliable night after night, I'm very happy with it," remarks Werner. PRG vice chairman & chief technology officer Rusty Brutsche comments, "When you see all those projectors working together to create one image, it's an amazing thing. Not only was the imagery amazing, but the performance of Mbox Extreme has been stellar as well."

It's 2014 now and the new year began on a chilly note with partly cloudy skies.
The first morning of 2014 dawned chilly with low temperatures ranging from the lower 30s to the lower 40s. Winnfield was the cold spot with a low of 31 degrees while Opelousas and Ville Platte saw their thermometers drop only to 42. The long-term daily average is 39 degrees and the record is 17 in 1964.
Peek-a-boo sunshine brought afternoon high temperatures into the upper 50s to the lower 60s. Many, Natchitoches, Colfax, AEX, Oakdale, and Bellwood all reached 63 degrees while Opelousas stayed at 58 and Simmesport at 59. The 30-year daily average is 59 and the record is 81 in 1952.
A strong cold front will sweep through central Louisiana early Thursday morning. Colder weather and gusty winds will follow the front.

The Advantages of Using Cotton to Make Towels:
Mankind's use of cotton cloth spans the globe and dates back thousands of years. Cotton required labor-intensive production until machine-spun cotton was introduced during the industrial revolution. The speed of production increased tenfold after Eli Whitney's cotton gin machine became popular. As the cherished commodity became readily available, its reputation as a useful material grew. Some distinct properties of cotton make it an especially good choice for manufacturing towels
- Absorbency: Due to its ability to absorb and hold liquid, cotton is the fabric of choice for bath towels and towels used for cleaning. Good Housekeeping's Towel Buying Guide advises shoppers to purchase 100 percent cotton towels. A 100 percent cotton towel can hold almost 25 times its weight in liquid, according to Good Housekeeping
- Durability: Durability is a major reason consumers are attracted to 100 percent cotton towels. According to Project Cotton, a University of Missouri initiative, cotton is the only fiber that becomes stronger when its wet. This is why cotton towels are often used for vigorous cleaning tasks involving scrubbing or mopping. Mop heads are often made from cotton fibers. Pure cotton towels can also withstand higher temperatures than cotton blend towels, or towels made from synthetic materials
- Hygenic: Since cotton can withstand high temperatures, it can easily be sanitized with boiling water or bleach, with no loss of fabric integrity. This makes cotton towels an attractive choice for use in hospitals or newborn care, where sanitizing is necessary. While cotton towel fibers are strong enough to stand up to bleaching, only white towels should be bleached. Bleach fades colored cotton towels
- Natural: Cotton towels are natural "green" products, unlike those made from synthetic materials. Cotton plants are a renewable resource. The natural fiber used to make the cloth is biodegradable. The plants do more than provide fiber for cloth. The seeds provide oil used in cooking and in many food items. Cotton meal and cotton hulls are used to feed livestock, poultry and fish. They're also used for fertilizer
- Hypoallergenic: Professional health websites like Family Doctor advise individuals with eczema or sensitive skin issues to wear cotton clothing. Cotton is a breathable, hypoallergenic material not prone to irritating sensitive skin. This makes cotton an ideal towel material, as most towels come in contact with skin immediately after washing, when the skin's pores are open and most receptive to irritation
How to Wash Cotton Towels:
After your shower is done, there is nothing quite like stepping out and wrapping yourself in a thick, plush cotton towel. Cotton is a soft, absorbent material, perfect for bath towels. If you maintain your towels they will remain as soft and luxurious as when you first bought them. The key is taking the time to wash them properly. Keeping your cotton towels in like-new condition takes hardly any effort at all, and the rewards will speak for themselves every time you step out of the shower
- Sort towels so that they can be laundered with like colors. This will help to prevent other clothing and towels from leaking colors onto them
- Place the towels into the washing machine and turn it on to fill it up with water. Be careful not to overfill your washing machine, as this won't allow the towels to get clean
- Add a scoop of a mild bleach-free detergent to the washing machine after it has filled up with water. Avoid dropping the detergent directly on top of the towels
- Add a cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle. The mild acidity of the vinegar will help to eliminate any odors or residual residue from the detergent, leaving colors brighter and towels softer
- Place your towels into the dryer after they are finished in the washing machine with a fabric softener sheet. Turn the machine on
- Allow the towels to get 95 to 97 percent dry before taking them out. Over-drying them will cause them to feel crisp, but they shouldn't feel damp when you take them out. Check the towels periodically to make sure you pull them out at the right time
How to Remove Rust Stains From Cotton Towels:
Stains happen. They're just a part of life. Some stains, however, are more challenging to remove than others. Rust is one of them. Your everyday stain removal products won't do much, if anything, to a stubborn rust stain. Since rust is an oxidized metal, the only thing that will work to dissolve it is something acidic, such as a lemon. Before you get really mad at whoever took that cotton towel into the garage and returned it with rust stains, learn how to get rid of those ugly, rust spots
- Place paper towels on a flat surface
- Place the rust-stained towel on top of the paper towels. The paper towels underneath will absorb the rust stain as it loosens
- Squeeze lemon juice from a lemon, or pour from the bottle if using bottled lemon juice. Saturate all of the stains well
- Place the stained towel with paper towels underneath outside in the sun. Let it dry completely
- Examine the once-stained towel to see if any rust stains remain. If they aren't completely gone, add more lemon juice, and place back in the sun to dry
- If the stains are gone, wash and dry the towel as usual

- 1 x Dog Shape Soft Cotton Square Towels

Capri Grotta Azzurra
Tiberius' Sacred Santuary: Capri's Blue Grotto.
A magic no word or image could ever describe. It is a 60-metre-long, 25-metre-wide cavity; to get into it, you need to take one of the small rowing boats moored outside the cave; since the opening is very narrow, you will have to lie on the bottom of the boat to get into the grotto (in case the sea grows rough, boat service is suspended).
There is actually a bigger but completely submerged opening; this very underwater entrance allows the blue coloration of the water inside the grotto, due to a phenomenon of sunlight reflection. There is an almost surreal view in the inside, the transparency and the blue colour of the water give us the impression of navigating through a clear sky, and the boats seem to float on a fantastic universe.
The Blue Grotto has been known since the Roman times, and Emperor Tiberius chose it as his own personal nymphaeum (Roman monumental fountain, translator's note) (the statues of pagan gods found on the bottom of the cave date back to the Roman times), later on almost nothing was known of the grotto, also because the fishermen of the island believed it to be haunted by evil spirits.
It was rediscovered and made popular as late as April 18th 1826 by the German painter August Kopisch and his friend Ernst Fries with the help of Angelo Ferraro, a fisherman; since then, the grotto has been visited by millions of tourists from anywhere in the world.
Tours of the cave are always possible due to the special light conditions, but under optimum conditions such as special water transparency, a clear sky and a diffused sunlight you get a particularly intense blue. If the boatman will not sing for you, do sing a melodious song yourself and you will be surprised at the marvellous acoustics of the grotto.
Unfortunately, bathing is forbidden, but you will not find it hard to imagine a unique experience such as a bath in these waters as those of Emperor Tiberius, you will just have to lean out of the boat and dip your hand into the sea to feel its enchantment take your hand and your mind. There are many tales and legends about this cave, when you see it, you will believe the unbelievable and become part of the legend yourself.
How to arrive:
- 10 minute motorboat ride from Marina Grande.
- 15 minute bus ride to terminus in Viale T. de Tommaso 50 m. from Piazza Vittoria.
- 50 minute walk along Viale T. de Tommaso, Via Pagliaro and Via G. Azzurra (3.5 km.).
- 35 minute walk through the centre of Anacapri, Via Vigna, Via Veterino and up a quite steep path.

Associated Press
CHICAGO (AP) — A U.S. Army Reservist from suburban Chicago has been honored with the military's prestigious Legion of Merit award.
Sen. Mark Kirk presented the award to Col. Joseph Noferi of Lincolnwood on Monday.
Noferi has served 30 years as an Army Reservist, including stints in Italy, the United Kingdom and with the Defense Intelligence Agency.
Kirk says Noferi has proven himself "an invaluable asset to our nation."
He says under Noferi's leadership the Chicago Joint Reserve Unit became the highest per-capita developer of Foreign Military Intelligence Collection Activity accounts. The accounts provided crucial information to the military in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Congress established the Legion of Merit award in 1942. It's presented to members of the armed forces for outstanding service and achievement.

The management and staff of the European University Center fo Peace Studies (EPU) would like to inform you that we have had to cancel the upcoming (2013-2015) academic year of EPU due to a recent decision of the Agency which is in charge of Austrian Universities (AQA), the former Austrian Accreditation Council.
The reason why the AQA decided not to continue the accreditation of our MA programs is that – even though we offered two accredited MA programs - we have been able to run only one due to the fact that not enough self-paying students applied.
At the same time, we can confirm that the academic documents, including the MA degree in Peace and Conflict Studies of the past two academic years, are not influenced by this decision. The accredited status of these documents remains official and valid.
Also, the graduation process of the EPU students in the current (2012-2013) academic year remains unchanged and they will be able to complete the second year of their accredited MA program as it was originally planned and scheduled. According to the AQA, their graduation has to take place until 30 September 2014 at the latest.
Thank you for your understanding.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Gerald Mader, President of EPU

Bike MPLS by Twin Cities Tees - almost 3 years ago
"We decided to put my sister's artistic talents to use to celebrate the Twin Cities biking community (and maybe help pay for some of her tuition if we can sell a few shirts). She sketched out a bike constructed of the letters MPLS (for Minneapolis) and off we went to CustomInk. Turning her design into a reality couldn't have been any easier with CustomInk. The shirts turned out great and the web ordering experience was actually fun!"

Austin police are searching for the suspect in a shooting Tuesday night at a northeast Austin apartment complex that left one person dead and another with life-threatening injuries.
The shooting took place at the Cameron Greens Apartment complex in the 5700 block of Cameron Road.
Calls to 911 reporting the shooting came in around 9:15 last night. When police arrived at the scene of the incident, they found a male in his late teens or early 20s dead on the scene, and another male who had sustained a gunshot wound to the head. The victim was transported to Brackenridge Hospital with life-threatening injuries.
At this time, detectives do not have a lot of information about a possible suspect, but they told FOX 7 they believe the shooter is a man, and that he was wearing baggy clothes at the time of the shooting.
"They are still trying to determine what relationship existed between the suspect and the victims," said Officer Traver Stefan, with the Austin Police Department.
The second victim has successfully undergone surgery and is listed as being in stable condition.

Teens arrested for convenience store burglary
Dropped candy bar wrappers have led to the arrest of two teens for burglarizing a Scottsbluff convenience store late Sunday night. Thomas Barrios of Scottsbluff and Joey Eagle Elk of Lisco, both 17, were taken in custody.
Police found wrappers from the convenience store at 5th and East Overland that led to an apartment complex laundry room. Officers found an open box of butterfinger candy bars and an opened carton of cigarettes, and after viewing surveillance video and gaining a description of the burglars clothing, arrested the subjects at an apartment.

That was some neat defending by Pepe. Franck Ribery and David Alaba combine down the Bayern Munich left, but Pepe's able to read the key pass and clear the ball with a wonderful sliding challenge that actually sets Cristiano Ronaldo free. Ribery is forced to bring the Real Madrid star down, which turns out to be his last action of the match, as the winger is replaced by Thomas Muller.
The free kick, incidentally, is plucked out of the air by Manuel Neuer, which was a bit of a waste. Incredibly, not that many people saw it - UK TV provider ITV had for some staggeringly halfwitted reason opted to cut away to the news. Right then.
Back in the game, Phillipp Lahm saves the day for the visitors with a stunning tackle on Ronaldo right as he was about to pull the trigger and de-level this match. Lahm may have mess up badly for Real's second goal, but he's been phenomenal since.
We have live coverage of the game in our Real Madrid vs. Bayern Munich StoryStream. For more on the two teams, head over to Real Madrid blog Managing Madrid and Bayern Munich blog Bavarian Football Works.

Women's Basketball Lands Transfer from Butler
FORT MYERS, Fla. – Florida Gulf Coast University head women's basketball coach Karl Smesko has announced that Jenna Cobb (New Holland, Ohio/Miami Trace HS, Butler), formerly of Butler University, will join the Eagle program for the 2012-13 academic year.
Cobb will have two years of eligibility but will have to sit out the 2012-13 season due to NCAA four-year transfer rules.
"Jenna is a really good addition for us," said Smesko. "She is a proven Division I starter and can play either guard position."
Cobb, a 2012 Horizon League All-Defensive Team selection, led the Bulldogs and ranked third in the Horizon League and 33rd in the nation with 2.8 steals per game. She started 28 of 30 games and averaged 6.8 points and 4.6 rebounds while playing 29.8 minutes per game. In her two seasons at Butler she played in 63 games (started 29) and registered 102 steals.
Cobb, a member of the Butler Athletic Director's Honor Roll and Horizon League Academic Honor Roll, is the seventh addition to the 2012-13 FGCU roster. She joins freshmen Amanda Moore (Seymour, Ind./Seymour HS), DyTiesha Dunson (Albany, Ga./Westover HS), Jamie Gluesing (Greendale, Wisc./Solon HS), Bethany Murrell (New Palestine, Ind./New Palestine HS), Katie Meador (Salem Communuity HS/Salem, Ill.) and Taylor Gradinjan (Cudahy HS/ Cudahy, Wisc.), who all signed National Letters of Intent.
The Eagles are coming of the most historic season in its Division I history, advancing to the NCAA Tournament and earning a No. 12 seed in the Raleigh Region. Led by three-time Atlantic Sun Coach of the Year Karl Smesko, FGCU finished with a 29-3 overall record that included a league-first 18-0 mark in the A-Sun. The Eagles verified the conference's third-ever unbeaten regular season by cruising through the Atlantic Sun Tournament, taking the league's automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament with a convincing 67-39 win over second-seeded and 20-game winner Stetson. The Green and Blue, with their seven trifectas vs. St. Bonaventure in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, set the NCAA record for three-pointers in a season (342).

Youths express fears as Stafford deadline nears
- Written by Eric Mayes
- Published in News Headlines
When Jamira Burley graduates from Temple University on May 10, she faces a new rite of passage — paying off her students loans — roughly $30,000.
"Being an adult is only good in theory — because there are so many bills you have to pay," said Burley, who on Monday May 7 took part in a national conference call with President Barack Obama, Mayor Michael Nutter and other students to discuss the looming increase in interest rates on student loans.
In addition to Burley, 15 other area college students sat in on the call with Nutter, 74 mayors across the nation, several governors and about 200 students. The call was part of a national blitz to draw attention to the issue during a tough election cycle.
For Burley, though, it was personal.
"You graduate, and the likelihood of you getting a good job is slim, and even if you do get a good job, half of your paycheck is going to paying bills. There is no way to really live," she said.
By her own admission, Burley is one of the lucky ones.
One of 16 children, Burley, from West Philadelphia, said there was no way her parents could pay for her college. She worked during school, but the more she earned the less financial aid she qualified for, and so her student loans increased.
"I actually came into college with more than $50,000 in scholarships, but I actually worked during my college career and the more you work, the more you make, they give you less student aid," she said.
Temple cost her between $12,000 and $14,000 a year.
Armed with a dual bachelor's degree in international business and legal studies, the 23-year old starts a job on May 14, but still, she's looking at monthly payments that could go as high as $550 a month. Now, she's faced with another glitch — in July, before she's even made her first student loan payment, the interest rate could double.
The possibility has Democrats and Republicans in Washington, D.C., in showdown mode, with the Senate taking up the debate Monday. Both sides say they want to keep current interest rates, but disagree on how to pay for it.
Democrats have made a $6 billion proposal that would keep current subsidized Stafford loan interest rates of 3.4 percent from doubling for another year. Republicans oppose how Democrats would finance their measure. Democrats would force owners of many privately owned companies to pay more Social Security and Medicare payroll taxes. Republicans want to eliminate a preventive health fund created as part of Obama's 2010 revamping of the nation's health care system.
The White House has threatened to veto a House-approved GOP bill similar to the Senate proposal, and Obama has launched a grassroots campaign against the plan.
Republicans are demanding a vote on their alternative measure.
The partisan bickering leaves approximately 7.4 million students, whose Stafford borrowing costs would rise by an average $1,000 over the lives of their loans, wondering if their interest costs will double.
According to the American Student Assistance, the typical college student graduates with $22,700 in student debt.
It's become something students expect.
"It's expected," shrugged Dontay Muhammad, 16, of North Philadelphia. "I'm going to college and I'm going to have all this debt. So, right now I don't feel any kind of way about it."
He attends Community College of Philadelphia, but plans to head to the University of Maryland in the fall, where he expects tuition to run as high as $30,000 annually.
There is no way he can afford that on his own.
"I'm going to have to take out student loans," he admitted. "I see my parents helping with it, so hopefully I won't have to take out that much."
Muhammad hopes to keep his loans in the $10,000 to $15,000 range.
That is not to say he isn't worried.
"Of course it concerns me, because it means more money to pay back," he said.
With three younger brothers hopefully headed to college, his parents may find themselves stretched.
"This is adding more and more debt on to young people we should be investing in," Nutter said to reporters after the conference call. "Student debt in the United States of America is now greater than credit card debt and car loans combined. It's an astounding amount of money that is owed."
Noting that Pennsylvanians have higher than average student debt, the mayor said higher costs will prevent more people from attending college.
The doubling of interest rates … and if tuitions continue to go up, it continues to get harder and harder to get over that hurdle," he said. "It makes it that much more difficult for young people to go to college, stay in school and ultimately to graduate. This is literally about attacking our nation's finest — our students."
Burley said she supported the president's plan — and urged others to do the same.
"Young people are suffering in this debt crisis. They are not only being buried in credit card debt, but they're being buried in loans. It's important for us as a nation to come together behind the president to make sure our interest rates don't double — or we're going to live in a society where young people don't want to go to college," she said. "Or, they're going to be buried in so much debt they'll never pay it back."

The Getaway
What the Paul Levy saga says about the city's most powerful institutions.
The scrutiny, though, is not over for Levy and his enablers. In 2008 a sex discrimination lawsuit was brought against Levy, Beth Israel, and Dr. Josef E. Fischer, the former head of surgery, by a doctor Levy demoted from the head of anesthesiology; the suit may see trial next year. In her complaint, Dr. Carol Warfield says she repeatedly reported Fischer's demeaning and sexist treatment of her and that when she asked Levy to intervene, he accused her of "playing the victim" and creating a "culture of whining."
If only Warfield read Running a Hospital, she would understand Levy's point of view. After a Columbus Day youth soccer tournament this fall, Levy, a longtime soccer referee, took to his blog to chastise a coach whose players had challenged his calls. "The referee is always right," Levy lectured, "even if s/he has made a mistake: A player never wins in the long run by dissenting. If children are to be effective players as they grow older, it is best to learn that lesson, too."

Do you live in or near a city that cleans up leaves in the fall? Find out what happens to those leaves. I found tons of leaves stacked and about 80% composted. The city was tickled to get rid of them. $10 a truck or trailer (any size) load and they have a 3 yard loader. These leaves were wet and nicely compact. I would guess about 1/2 ton per pick-up load. What a deal!

Re: compost
My town does that too. I also have a horse stable nearby and they dump a mountain of wood shavings and manure outside every year. Last year I had ten loads of compost hauled over here of well-rotted material. Not much nitrogen in the manure as the wood shavings consume the nitrogen in the manure when they decompose. Leaves have next to nothing but they sure help a heavy clay soil.
I have my own compost pile. All food scraps, and yard and garden waste go in plus my wood ashes. Meat scraps go the the crows and with the recycling, we barely have one grocery bag of trash per week. There was a thread Cecil started about loaders. I sure like mine for turning over the compost pile.
Re: compost
Bob funny you should say that. My grandpa dumped a few piles of wood chips in grandma's big garden one year Not even the weed would grow He had us out there raking them out. But it was still a few years before it would grow good again. While I know now what happened I wonder if Grandpa ever figured it out

The atmosphere and the beers are the reason to come here. There is always something going on- Trivia, Open Mic, Live Band whatever. The decor is metallic and modern, giving off a young vibe.
They have twenty taps and a very good bottle selection. The beers are mostly local and fresh, they are constantly changing their options, which are readily available on beermenues.com and their website.
The people who work there are knowledgable, friendly, and quick to offer you a new beer.
The pricing is reasonable. They often have two person or four person discounts on groupon. I would wish for a longer happy hour (when the drafts are half price), but that would mean opening for lunch (weekdays they open at 4pm).
My only real complaint is that the food is often too mediocre. I enjoy their burgers, but the brioche buns are too large. I like the seasoning on the ribs but you need a knife to cut through them. And when I've had their muscles sometimes they are served without them all being open.
But like I said, you come to this bar for the beer and the atmosphere. And Growlers is well worth coming to.

Love this place - great beer selection, delicious food, and a great attitude from the owners and employees.
There's something like 12-16 taps, always rotating excellent new beers in and out. Fairly priced, and a full bar to go with them. There's one of those cool pressure-growler filler thingies, too (obviously, with the name). They also have a program to track the beers you drink, and be rewarded along the way.
The food is really, really good. The menu is small, but everything is well thought-out and delicious. Food is on the expensive side, but again, it's really, really good - not traditional bar fare by a long shot.
The employees are generally in a good mood to set a fun atmosphere, and want everyone to have a good time. There's something going on most nights - trivia, music bingo, etc... Just a great place to hang out and have a few beers.

Smaller place, sorta tucked behind the metro north station. Modern and metallic decor, the cozy bar is to the left as you enter. Friendly bartender on my only visit so far is always a huge bonus.
They must have 15- 20 quaity taps, (you can get the details on Beermenus.com) as well as a respectable bottle and can list. You will be able to find plenty of quality beer, from the usual local, regional and nationals of the craft beer world. Food wise, I had no time to sample anything, but the menu did feature snacks, sandwiches, charcuterie & Cheese plates and salads that liiked mighty tempting. Cheese plates from Murrays, again, always a bonus.
Not cheap, alas nothing is in the neighborhood, pints were mostly in the $7-8 range.
I liked the vibe in generaland the feel of the beer scene here. Go check it out if you are in the lower Westchester county, NY area. Good for a bite, lunch, dinner, with a date, or to enjoy a few pints with the guys.

I really have to give props to Growlers for having about 50 beers in the house and no BMC. Even some of the best beer bars I've been to have one or two taps dedicated to a Light Lager but none can be seen here.
Even though they do a good job with the emphasis on craft I do have some nitpicks. Most beer was from NY breweries. Which is fine but there were multiple taps taken up by the same one brewery. Bottle/Can selection was kind of that way too. But they didn't even have anything from Brooklyn Brewery which was odd. (at least when I went there was nothing from them) Plus the tap beer selection all ventured above 7% which is tough when you want to have a few.
I think they could mix up their bottle selection a little more by offering more breweries instead of multiple styles from the same brewery.
The bartenders all did a good job even though the place was rather busy. You can get a growler to go but I didn't see anyone partaking in that. The prices are a little on the pricey side for me but that's the price you pay for good craft in NYC.

Residents last night gave public comment saying the board was not transparent with the direction of the bond if it were to pass. The two bond options wouldn't be a too different but would be either sent to the ballot in Spring or Fall. The bond would renovate Central, Jim Darcy, and Warren Schools by fall of 2016.
"It is with great excitement that I recommend the Board approve a Fall 2014 election for an elementary bond addressing displaced students, technology, and with a finish date of 2016." said Superintendent Kent Kultgen.
After hearing more public comment tonight and discussion within the board, they unanimously voted to run the bond on a ballot in the Fall. Some opposed the bond being ran in the Fall, with concerns that it would cost more money, but the board believes it will give the public a better understanding on what exactly the bond is.
