Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
"It's fun to show a film here," first-time filmmaker Leslye Headland told the audience last night at the Landmark Sunshine Theatre screening of her debut movie Bachelorette, hosted by the Peggy Siegal Company and Svedka Vodka. "I used to come here during my NYU days. I came to see Fear and Loathing and I remember I did coke in the bathroom and threw up everywhere," she said. "Actually, I wrote this film while I was living on a couch and working on a blow job monologue."
A memorable introduction, to be sure, and one that could've been a scene from Headland's movie, which stars Kirsten Dunst, Isla Fisher, and Lizzy Caplan as longtime best friends and bridesmaids. No, this flick is nothing like the Kristen Wiig knee-slapper from last year: "It's much, much darker," warned Caplan. "It feels more like a dark, upsetting play."
Make no mistake, though, the actresses had plenty of fun in the process. "When we had to act drunk, we would all stand on the spot and spin; Kirsten taught us how to do that," Fisher reported. According to Dunst, "That was something Allison Janney taught me a while back. You just sort of spin around a lot, feel dizzy so you can't walk right, and you look pretty out of it." At the film's after-party, which was held at the retired strip joint Westway, the girls didn't have to fake it, treating themselves to a real glass of bubbly or two. "We actually ate dinner at the strip club after we filmed the scene in the movie," Dunst reminisced. "It was a little awkward, I admit, but nice of them to treat us."

I was at an auction last Saturday. There was a Cadet 102 there that was in original condition and cherry! It even had the small reflectors on top of the fenders and they were intact. The original seat was there and it looked like it had hardly been sat on. Bearings were tight and there were no dents. Only slight paint fade. It had a deck on it as well.
I didn't get to stay and see it sell. My neighbor did. - It brought $325 !!! I'm still kicking myself!

Earlier this week, UFC Welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre extended an invitation to his next challenger Johny Hendricks. In order to "set a good example" for the sport, St. Pierre wanted both himself and his opponent to through VADA for their upcoming fight at UFC 167.
Friday night, Sportsnet reported that Hendricks accepted GSP's invitation:
"Heck ya!" Hendricks told UFC Central Radio late Thursday on Sportsnet 590 The Fan.
"The worst thing that they're going to find is a little bit of protein in my diet. If eating wild hogs and organic deer meat and a little bit of glutamine is bad for the ol' system then I might fail," Hendricks joked.
To my knowledge, those things aren't on the WADA restricted substance list. This won't be the first time VADA has tested fighters for the UFC. Last year, Welterweights B.J. Penn and Rory MacDonald both submitted to the testing without incident.
Assuming both St. Pierre and Hendricks pass all their tests, as well as the commission pre- and post-fight tests, they'll meet in the Octagon on November 16. The event takes place at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada

Whenever my husband is around town, he makes a point of stopping at the Sunoco station for coffee. He has frequently spoken about the cost of the disposable cups. I saw the #17 24 oz. Tumbler. I didn't waste a moment. I ordered one for him. Being married to a NASCAR nut has made him more than just a casual fan. He knew #17 is Matt Kenseth.
Hubby picks up the tumbler as he leaves the house. At some point in his travels, he's stopping by that Sunoco station. When he says "fill 'er up", it has nothing to do with his truck.

This project is funded by NASA
To understand the role of freeze-thaw processes in determining seasonal and interannual variability in terrestrial biomass, photosynthesis, respiration, and net CO2 fluxes over continental North America
Tingjun Zhang is the PI; and Kevin Schaefer and Lixin Lu (CIRES) are Co-Investigators.
Project Summary
We are investigating how winter snow cover, soil temperature, and soil freeze/thaw dynamics influence carbon fluxes and biomass. Understanding the potential fate of the large amount of frozen soil carbon in permafrost regions is essential to long-term climate predictions.
We will integrate remote sensing data sets, ground-based measurements, and numerical modeling to quantify the effects of soil temperature, soil freeze-thaw dynamics, and snow cover on seasonal to interannual variability in the North American terrestrial carbon cycle. Using remote sensing products, in situ observations, and a soil thermodynamic model, we will estimate soil temperatures and snow cover over North America at 25-kilometer resolution for North America from 1981 to 2003 (23 years). We will feed these estimated soil temperatures and snow cover, along with additional remote sensing data, into an ecosystem model to estimate biomass and net carbon fluxes. Both models will use the North American Regional Reanalysis, so the resulting estimates of soil thermodynamic properties, biomass, and carbon fluxes will be optimally consistent with each other and with actual weather conditions in North America. We will statistically analyze these optimal carbon fluxes to understand the environmental drivers and biophysical responses regulating the spatial patterns and temporal variability in the North American terrestrial carbon cycle. Using standard Monte Carlo techniques, we will quantify uncertainty in our estimated carbon fluxes. Lastly, we will perturb our input data to assess the sensitivity of our estimated fluxes to long-term climate change.
Our research addresses the North American Carbon Program (NACP) goals of reducing uncertainty about the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and the dynamics of the carbon cycle. Specifically, we address the following NACP goals:
We will archive data products generated by this investigation at the National Snow and Ice Data Center's Frozen Ground Data Center (FGDC) for access by other NACP investigators and for general use by the scientific community.

WASHINGTON (Sept. 26, 2:30 p.m. ET) — The Australian agency that assesses risk from industrial chemicals says there is no indication from the data it has reviewed that suggests there should be a health concern from the use of the phthalate DINP in toys and child care products. The issue of whether DINP can be used in the United States long-term is still unresolved, as there currently is a temporary U.S. ban on DINP in toys and child care products.

Sad as it is, I actually can imagine Mosley winning this fight. I hope it stops with imagination.
I know that what he did against Alvarez was close to nothing but Malignaggi is small WW and doesn't have the power to Ko someone - which is the best way of sparing the audience of yet another most boring fight of the year candidate.. Mosley has got a good chin on him anyways so I wouldn't be worried about that even against a bigger puncher. If Shane doesn't bring at least 1% of that beast he once was, we are in for a boring, shell-shocked, bro hugging performance.
Paulie's main weapons should be his jab and craftyness that he brings to the table. Footwork and good ring generalship should serve him well too. Good thing Paulie can take a punch as well.
The chances are slim for Shane, but...what IF ??!!
All bs aside, this is a terrible matchup. If a non-deserving Mosley really wins and gets a title...ima hang myself.
Your thoughts?

This is a money grab plain and simple. Mosleys got that smoking hot ass bitch to worry about. If he really wanted to retire at his age he wouldve stayed married. Not get a divorce when your on your last legs.

CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) - It's a phrase that you hear almost every time you buy an electronic device or appliance from a major retailer "Would you like to purchase an extended warranty with that?"
Extended warranties are offered not only on big ticket items but on smaller costly purchases too.
But with every protection plan there is a fee.
So the question we asked is..."Are extended warranties really worth it?"
19 Action News explores the pros and cons to get to the truth behind extended warranties.

Lab test: VoIP phone systems walk the talk
Appliances from Allworx, Critical Links, Fonality, Microsoft, and Sutus have slick telephony features and affordable price tags, but differ significantly in breadth, depth, and complexity
Critical Links EdgeBox Office v.4.5.2
Score: Good 7.9
Bottom Line: This all-one-one appliance integrates Asterisk telephony, networking, e-mail, file sharing, and Web server into a single enterprise-grade solution. However, the many moving parts and interfaces add complexity to configuration and use. Phone services include interactive voice response and conferences as well as queues and other features for call centers. QoS management lets administrators set VoIP and Web caching policies. See complete review.
Fonality PBXtra 4.0
Score: Excellent 8.8
Bottom Line: PBXtra is a scalable phone system with a user-friendly interface, making it easy to install, use, and maintain. A "hybrid hosted" architecture lets Fonality remotely manage the system. The basic configuration is value-laden, with strong Outlook integration, conference bridges, and CRM hooks; plus it supports analog and VoIP phones. The Professional edition adds multiple auto-attendants and conferencing, while Call Center tacks on unlimited call queues and agent capabilities. See complete review.
Microsoft Response Point 1.0
Score: Very Good 8.3
Bottom Line: Response Point combines software from Microsoft and hardware from IP telephony vendors. Reliable voice recognition -- without any training -- is unique among the products tested, and helps make the system remarkably easy to use. Setup and admin are a snap, and it's easy to add new users and phones -- up to 50 without additional licensing fees. Telephony features are basic. If basic meets your needs, this system is a perfect fit for the small, Windows-centric office. See complete review.
Sutus Business Central SB-200
Score: Very Good 8.4
Bottom Line: Sutus' unified communication solution combines telephony, e-mail and file servers, and even wired and wireless networking in a single box. This reduces hardware costs for offices of up to 25 users, while easing administration. The system integrates VoIP and PSTN lines, via an included gateway, while phone services convert voice mail to e-mail. Sutus lacks the advanced telephony features and expandability of some competitors, but its wizard-driven setup, reliability features, and collaboration spaces should be a hit with smaller offices. See complete review.

The Star Princess offered convenient round trip sailing from San Francisco - not far from home so did not require air travel or overnight accommodations before or after the cruise. It was a great over-all experience - the ship was relatively clean and well maintained for it's age. Our cabin was clean and our steward took care of us.
We choose "Any Time Dining" and so glad that we did. Never had a problem getting a table in the restaurants. Any Time Dining offers the same menus but with the flexibility to eat when you are hungry and not have to rush off to the dining room because it was your seating.
The food in the main dining room was just okay --- not the selections we have had on other Princess cruises. Horizon Court was usually "picked over" and sometimes less than appealing --- very cafeteria-like with a chlorine smell drifting in from the pool area. The best place to eat after getting your food in the Horizon Court is to go all the way through the seating area towards the back of the ship --- there is another dining area inside (less smelly there) and a bar and outside seating at the very back of the ship. Really enjoyed having breakfast in the main dining room - relaxed and elegant (but don't sleep in because they stop serving in there at 9:00 am). Pub lunch and afternoon tea were fun too.
The best food on the ship was in the Crown Grill and Sabatini's --- definitely worth the extra fee. The Crown Grill fillet was probably the best piece of meat I have ever had -- the salts they serve on the side are wonderful and the Au gratin potatoes awesome. The service was great too - very attentive.
Our goal was quiet, relaxed and no pressure --- lots of time to read, sit on deck or on the balcony of our cabin and enjoy not having to do anything we didn't want too! There were plenty of activities on board but If you are looking for lots of high energy stuff to do this probably wouldn't have been the cruise for you - probably due to the time of year. Not many families or younger folks on this cruise.
Ports were fine -- It was extremely hot and humid in Mexico but we had fun shopping, found some fun restaurants and just wandered around. The excursions are pretty expensive, we preferred to check with the locals and booked some activities on our own in each port. We didn't choose this itinerary for the ports - we chose it because of the time of year, we wanted a 10 day cruise and we wanted to depart from a west coast port.
My only complaint is that the customer service appears to be lacking. Just little annoying things but they add up --- few of the staff seemed to want to give that little bit extra that makes a huge difference. We had a problem at the end of the cruise with some very rude crew members but over all we were pretty low maintenance travelers.
We would probably cruise with Princess again.

|Siebrass set to open Feather Your Nest
by James Hanson
by James Hanson
For some, their home is like their sanctuary. It's like their personal nest.
Jane Siebrass and her husband, Dave, of Aurora hope to help customers feather that nest with a new business bearing the same name.
Feather Your Nest Design and Gallery is a dream 13 years in the making which will open soon near downtown Aurora.
"I had been wanting to do this for some time," Jane said.
Art has been Jane's passion since childhood and she specializes in sketches and painting. She also has an interest in interior decorating and design, working for the last 11 years in the design and retail business.
"I've always loved art," she said. "I'm an artist at heart, I always have been and always will be."
Siebrass is also a member of the Aurora Area Artisans Association. She said her hopes for the business is to provide people with a variety of services and products.
Feather Your Nest Design and Gallery, located at 1016 M St. across from Super Foods, will feature original artwork from local artists, accent and custom furniture, upholstery work, table top design, garden decor, lamps, lighting fixtures, wall decor, custom holiday decorating, room layouts and antiques, combining the old with the new and various other small gift items.
She said she hopes to do interior design work for both homes and businesses.
"For me it's about making a person's house more comfortable and more fitting for that individual," she said. "I have had tremendous support from the other businesses in town as well as my friends and I'm excited to be a part of the business community."
"I'm also excited to have this avenue to display the local artists' artwork," she added.
Jane said she got the name of the business from a book titled "Feather Your Nest," which is all about making a house cozy and more of a home. She said the title fit with what she hopes to assist others in doing through her business.
The couple expects to have the business fully opened by early next week.
"We're waiting on a little more product and inventory," Dave Siebrass said. "It's definitely getting closer though. It's been a long process."
Jane said she can visit the home or customers can bring the floorplan to her, whichever they prefer.
"I want to help with choosing paint colors, carpet, hard flooring, room arrangement and adding to the accessories they already have," she said. "I really want to help my customers turn their house into a home."
Jane said they do hope to expand in time and offer other more services and products.
"We would like to offer a computer design program in the future as well," she said.
The couple also hopes to develop a website.
Feather Your Nest Design and Gallery will be a part of the Open Studios Art Show, held on Oct. 30, Oct. 31 and Nov. 1.
Jane said she would like to host other events in the evenings.
"Things like a ladies night out or a wine tasting," she said. "We want to host special events."
"For me, I just want to provide excellent customer service," she added, "and offer high-end products at a great price. I know I will continue to keep adapting to customers' needs."
For more information about products, design ideas or to book an appointment, call 694-0120.

Anthony Hamilton, Elayna Boynton's 'Freedom' from DJANGO UNCHAINED Now Streaming
Set in the South two years before the Civil War, the film stars Academy Award®-winner Jamie Foxx as Django, a slave whose brutal history with his former owners lands him face-to-face with German-born bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz (Academy Award®-winner Christoph Waltz). Schultz is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to free him upon the capture of the Brittles – dead or alive.
Success leads Schultz to free Django, though the two men choose not to go their separate ways. Instead, Schultz seeks out the South's most wanted criminals with Django by his side. Honing vital hunting skills, Django remains focused on one goal: finding and rescuing Broomhilda (Kerry Washington), the wife he lost to the slave trade long ago.
Django and Schultz's search ultimately leads them to Calvin Candie (Academy Award®-nominee Leonardo DiCaprio), the proprietor of "Candyland," an infamous plantation where slaves are groomed by trainer Ace Woody to battle each other for sport. Exploring the compound under false pretenses, Django and Schultz arouse the suspicion of Stephen (Academy Award®-nominee Samuel L. Jackson), Candie's trusted house slave. Their moves are marked, and a treacherous organization closes in on them. If Django and Schultz are to escape with Broomhilda, they must choose between independence and solidarity, between sacrifice and survival...

The Academy for Diversity and Inclusive Education at Indiana University Southeast welcomes all who have registered for the Diversity and Inclusivity Teaching and Research Symposium to be held at IU Southeast in New Albany, Indiana, on October 12, 2013. We are looking forward to a day of interaction, enlightenment, and sharing about issues that concern diversity and inclusivity.
Those of you who are registered are making travel plans and may be wondering about several things. First, under the lodging tab, you will find a link to area hotels. This link provides a fairly accurate assessment of the lodging available in the area. The closest hotels to our campus are approximately five miles away.
Second, you will be concerned about locating the campus, available parking on campus, and the location of the conference once you are parked. The address you will use with Google Maps or your GPS will be 4201 Grant Line Rd., New Albany, IN. For nearly all attendees, you will be accessing Grant Line Road from I-265 which links I-65 and I-64. The campus is approximately 1/4 mile north of I-265 on Grant Line Road and is on the west side of Grant Line Road. There are two entrances to campus (both with stoplights) and either entrance will work for you. One is Alumni Drive and the other is Indiana Drive. If you will click the link at the bottom of the symposium webpage which says "IU Southeast Map and Directions Webpage" it will take you to a map of the campus. In the center of the map, look for the letters "UC". These stand for University Center. In front of the University Center is the Central Parking Lot, which is labeled #4. Park in this area. There will be no charge for parking. Signs in front of the University Center will direct you to the correct location in the University Center.
Please contact one of the co-directors if you have additional questions.

text: We sailed May 2013 in Norwegian Sky, from Miami to Great Stirup Cay and Nassau. Two adults and a young child. I don't understand why people have bashed this cruise ship in prior reviews. It was fine, particularly for the bargain price. We would cruise with Norwegian again and we would even do the same ship again for a quick getaway.1. We had a picture window cabin on Deck 6. The cabin was small, but adequate for the short cruise. There were three of us: two adults and one child. They had a small bed for our child. The cabin steward was friendly and made towel animals for our son. The cabin was clean. The colors and décor were boring and muted, not fancy, but it was fine.2. We ate at the buffet on Deck 11 (the Garden Café) several meals. For breakfast it was our favorite. They had the usual breakfast fare, plus an omellette station and food was good. The breakfast selection also included some Indian breakfast food, which was interesting, and some of it was very good. In fact, all the buffets had a little Indian food. 3. Someone here said that all they serve you on board are hamburgers and hotdogs. That was NOT true during our sailing. The buffet had a variety of dishes, including cold and warm pastas, salads, meats, carving station, pizza, Asian dishes, Indian dishes, thai dishes, and some Mexican food. The salads were fresh and nice in variety. The tomato vinaigrette salad was delicious. Yes, there were hamburgers and hot dogs for lunch, but other food was also available. One day, there was a taco station and paella poolside between 4 and 6. The staff in the buffet area did great cleaning up quickly and were talkative and friendly.4. We had dinner in the dining room twice. The lobster was delicious. The French onion soup was nothing to write home about. I did not care for most of the sweets. The ribeye was a little overcooked. But the Steak with chimichurri sauce the next day was good. 5. I think a consequence of free style dining and prepaid tips is that the dining room waiters are not as friendly. But they are not unfriendly either. They just don't get to know you. Some make an effort and others don't. It is like going to a restaurant. The waitress our last morning saw my son was sad to leave and made him a pot of warm chocolate milk, which he loved. The evening waitress, Val, was very sweet with our son. 6. The buffet in Great Stirrup Cay was not bad. It was the usual BBQ fare. Some of the food was not piping hot, but it was not bad. 7. I saw the staff constantly cleaning the dining areas on board and they were good about making sure people sanitized their hands before touching the buffet stations. They worked very hard.8. The Latin music late at night in the Deck 11 back bar was very nice. Wish more people had been dancing!9. The ship is smaller than others we have sailed and does not have as many amenities (no rock climbing walls or skating rinks!). But it was fine. And the drinks were reasonably priced, about $5-8 per drink. They have a drink special every day, which is announced in the little newsletter left in your room. The margaritas, Bahama Mamas, Cherry Lime Aid and Rum Punch were all good, but they were not too strong in alcohol content. My only criticism was the price of drinks in the private island, where the same drinks cost $12. Also, in the island a 6 pack of beer in a bucket is $28, which was not reasonable. So drink onboard, not while in Great Stirrup Cay! The wine selection on board was decent.Overall, an enjoyable ship and cruise experience. I would cruise NCL again.

They Meet Online
In 1998, "Jodi," a Wisconsin woman, met a man in an Internet chat room who went by the moniker, GMYourGod. Jodi was about to embark on a long, sordid journey that would end in the U.S. Supreme Court; her dramatic and salacious case would be one of the weirdest the Supreme Court has ever seen. The chatroom was dedicated to sadomasochism, and GMYourGod, in reality one Glenn Marcus, would soon become her "master."
Jodi had dabbled in two prior sadomasochist relationships before she met Marcus, but Marcus operated on an entirely different level. Marcus had a reputation as a hardcore master.
For one thing, he didn't use safe words — something the mainstream bondage, dominance and sadomasochistic (BDSM) community generally uses. In a dominant-submissive relationship, safe words are a code for an activity — flogging, for example — to stop. They are the primary means by which the submissive partner could communicate that the activity was no longer consensual.
He referred to his submissives as slaves and referred to himself as master.
In October 1998, Jodi left on a trip from the Midwest to Baltimore to meet Marcus. As she would for years, she kept a diary for readers of Marcus' website, Slavespace.com:
She wrote: "I have felt, am feeling, so many different things, millions of different things that I have never felt before.
"Mostly right now though, it is just total excitement! I am also very scared. The fear though, has changed over the weeks, and right now everything that I am afraid of boils down to being afraid that I will not please Sir."
"Sir" was the name she and the other slaves called Marcus.
Jodi's nickname became Poochie or, simply, Pooch.
In her first diary entry, reflecting on how she had felt before her first meeting, she wrote at length about her conflicting feelings of fear and excitement, which mingled and seemed to create a greater anticipation for her:
"There was a point a few weeks ago, when I just started to think, 'What is wrong with me?' This did not last long! But it surprised, and even scared me a little. I just started thinking, how could I need this? What is wrong with me? I want to give EVERYTHING to Sir. I want Him to own me, all of me, everything."
She ended her diary entry: "This is everything."

Today's weather forecast: Dreamy
MonkologyBy Gary Phillips
I love Gary and am a fan of his work. He can write about anything, but when he writes about L.A., I like that there's a kind of rebellious politics in the people he's involved with.
The Big NowhereBy James Ellroy
Ellroy is a great writer. Who's the poet who wrote, "I'm going to make me a world?" The poem is so physical. That's what Ellroy does when he's at his best. The way he uses his language, it crashes into itself—it's a war of the worlds. I find that wonderful and interesting.

Sun Assimilates Lustre Filesystem
Sun Microsystems is acquiring a majority shareholding in Cluster File Systems and thus the rights to the Lustre cluster filesystem.
Acquisition of the cluster file system will help Sun to strengthen its position with respect to high-performance computers and to market its own Solaris operating system in combination with the Lustre filesystem. The high-performance Lustre filesystem is designed for thousands of hardware nodes and Petabyte scale memory. Lustre was released by its owners as an Open Source software under the GPL.
"This acquisition, coupled with the recent announcement of the Sun Constellation System, the most open petascale capable HPC architecture in the industry, shows our long-term commitment to the open source community and leadership in HPC," says John Fowler, executive vice president, Systems Group, Sun Microsystems, Inc.
Sun published plans to offer Lustre servers on the Solaris ZFS platform as early as July. Thanks to the latest acquisition, Sun now possesses the know-how to bundle memory virtualization solutions with its own operating system. Sun's plans for Lustre include extending Lustre for Linux and Solaris OS on various hardware platforms. Peter Braam, Chief Executive Officer CEO of Cluster File Systems sees a promising basis for cooperation: "We have already worked together to deliver several large clusters, for example the fastest supercomputer in Asia at Tokyo Tech and we're now in the process of installing a 500+ TeraFlop and 1.7 PetaByte cluster at Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC)."
The deal is due for completion in early October at the start of Sun's second fiscal quarter. Financial details of the deal were not disclosed, but according to a statement by Sun, they will not affect share dividends.

Cast and crew members are putting in their final hours of rehearsals for the annual Mt. Vernon Township High School operetta to be presented March 7, 8 and 9.
Shows will begin at 7:30 p.m. each evening at the MVTHS Auditorium.
This year's selected musical is "Bye, Bye Birdie." Tickets are $5 each, with some reserved seating available.
Approximately 100 students are participating in the operetta, including 60 cast members, stage crew, tech crew, costume/makeup, and the production. Another 40 students are in the orchestra, under the direction of Rolland Mays.
Auditions were held after the Christmas break and rehearsals started shortly thereafter.
The cast will have its dress rehearsal on March 4 on the Casimir Pulaski holiday.
"Other kids had President's Day off and we spent the day here. Other kids will have Pulaski Day and we'll spend the day here. They are an incredibly dedicated group of kids and very delightful," said Mary Beth Mezo, the show's director. "They do it because they enjoy it so much."
When asked what makes this year's show special, Mezo replied, "The kids; absolutely the kids. It's the best group of kids at Mt. Vernon High School; I've got them right here," Mezo said.
J.J. Wiegel has the leading role in this year's musical, playing Conrad Birdie. The remaining leading characters are: Cody Wilson as Albert Peterson, Grace McDowell as Rose Alvarez, Bethaney Brown as Kim MacAfee, Bennett Lamczyk as Mr. MacAfee, Faith Harpole as Mr. MacAfee, Ashtyn Cornett as Mae Peterson, Logan Wilson as Randolph MacAfee, Riley Cornett as Ursula Merkle and Nathan Arnold as Hugo Peabody.
"We have Conrad Birdie, who is this Elvish character. He's been drafted into the Army and this is his farewell. His managers are hoping to make enough money to get out of debt on this last song, "One Last Kiss," Mezo explains. "They're going to be on the Ed Sullivan Show. They've chosen Ken MacAfee from Akron, Ohio, randomly to bestow the one last kiss on the show. Kim has the boyfriend that she is pinned to, and the McAfee family is struggling with children becoming modern, and then there's Albert Peterson and Rose Alvarez, who are the older love interests who have been seeing each other for eight years and Albert can't make a commitment because of his mother, Mae Petterson. She's manipulating and gets him to feel guilty on a regular basis. Eventually, Conrad leaves on a train and everybody else lives happily ever after."
Other cast members in the musical include: Madi Walton, Helen/sad girl; Dalton Miller, policeman/SweetApple deputy; Garrett Calvert, Maude's customer/trainman; Andrew Capps, reporter; Caleb Vaughn, reporter; Sam Lawrence, reporter, Kendall Kaskie, mayor; Megan McKinley, mayor's wife; Jonathan Dorris, Harvey Johnson; Elysia Piercy, Deborah Sue; Olivia Bailey, Alice; Jacey Donoho, Margie; Michaela Lamczyk, Nancy; Amy Heckenberger, Susie; Rachel Bolerjack, Penelope; Kaydee Dycus, Gloria Rasputin; Dala Wingo, Mrs. Merkel; Tristan Houser, Freddie; Aiden Ezell, Karl; Darakah Barnum and Chera Edwards, teen girls; Garren Bond, Brett Damron, Alex Lowery and Jase Lucas, teen boys; Aaron Neibert, parent; Ceyshona Blakemore, Mrs. Johnson, Victoria Baird, Lee; Megan Owens, Phyllis; Keila Stumbaugh, Angela Atkinson and Hailey Beal, stage hands; Jenny Rohl and McKayla Hayse, audio persons; Taylor Phillips and Falyn VanDyke, wardrobe women; and Michael Gray, guitar man.
The production staff includes Mezo, Mays, Nick Loafman, Shauna Brandt, Ashley Kern, Kathy Calvert, Zach Rines, DeeAnn Endsley, Joe Brown and Zach Standerfer; Casey Jackson, Megan Jackson and Shayln Koch are on the costume/makeup team; the tech crew is composed of Avery Barton, Taylor Phillips, Brody Wilson, Zane Wilson, Felicia Wagner, Casey Brandt, Falyn VanDyke, Olivia Ashby, Jessi Clark and Randi McCoy; and the stage crew consists of Jenny Rohl, Molly Rodgers, Keila Stumbaugh, Angela Atkinson, Erica Williamson, Michael Gray, McKayla Hayse, Hailey Beal, Kaleb Dorris, Katie Hunter and Joey Hall.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Recent dog attacks in Peoria have city officials looking to change the rules for dog owners.
While the owners are the ones who would be punished, city officials also have the option to put an outright ban on a dog breed.
At-Large Councilwoman, Beth Akeson presented the public with a proposal Wednesday night that would put more responsibility on dog owners.
The ordinance would create a "reckless owner" designation, which labels a person as "reckless" if he or she violates animal control ordinances three or more times in three years.
"We want to create conditions where dogs don't bite," said Akeson. "We want to make sure that people know what it means to be a responsible dog owner. I think if we can achieve that, we will be going down the right path."
Another possible change would prohibit chaining a dog to a property without the owner being present.
For Peoria Dog owner, Phil Reardon, he said the language in the tethering proposal initially concerned him, but it was cleared up at the forum.
"If the dog is out for 15 to 30 minutes, it shouldn't be a problem," said Reardon. "We are not the type of owners to let our dog live in the backyard. She loves being in the house, and we're fine with that."
During the meeting, Akeson brought up the "pitbull" breed several times saying owners need to be more educated on the the dangers associated with the breed, specifically.
"Pitbulls, when they do attack, they deliver an injury that is completely different than other dog bites, and that is a fact," said Akeson. "We have to do more to collect this data and make sure we are quantifying it the right way. "
Animal Shelter Director, Lauren Malmberg said she does not agree with Akeson on the subject, and neither did another dog owner at the forum.
"It's really not a breed issue," said Kimberly Brown. "I believe it is not a pitbull issue. I think it is just more dog responsible ownership."
Akeson added that the city has the option of banning specific breeds altogether if they believe they are too much of a safety risk.
However, that idea has not been put on the table.
Akeson said she hopes to have a discussion on the council floor by next year.
Another public forum is scheduled for Thursday night at 5:30 in the community room at Neighborhood House in Peoria.

Set-asides skew our tax priorities
So much of our tax dollars are already in a straight-jacket. Set asides for special causes feel good, so we pass them, BUT, less money is left over for everything else we need - libraries, parks, police. As our budget priorities change, we can't reallocate spending for our City's biggest priorities because of the set-asides that force us to spend money one way, even when it could be better used somewhere else. How do we fix this problem to make sure that our tax dollars work for us?
Ballot box budgeting
The problem is that our local elected officials keep going to the voters with these set asides! Everyone loves libraries, everyone loves kids, and everyone loves baby kittens--and our elected know this--so they go to the voters with these ballot props that lock us into these certain funding schemes that serve their own political interests. It is a cheap political trick, because if you ask someone if they want to save the kittens, they will say yes....if you ask them if they want to save our libraries, they say yes....but after five or six of these asked on an individual basis, you find yourself in a position where you can't fund them all at those levels. If our local politicians did their jobs and worked out the budget given the realities of the current fiscal and economic climate, we would have a budget that is flexible and can be shifted without these set asides locking us in.
San Francisco should immediately sunset ALL set asides in our budget. That doesn't mean funding for all those things will dry up, they will all just be funded according to what is the most pressing priorities in the current climate. The politicians need to hammer this stuff out because that's why we elected them, and its their job! And as a voter, you should vote against all set asides, even if you have warm fuzzy feelings about the particular issue--its bad public policy.
Heres the problem
Agree - we need to get rid of the set aside. But if we get rid of the set asides without getting rid of all the politicians who cave to the special interests (most of them) then what will happen is libraries and police will be cut so that perks and special interests will be protected.
I think the first step is to get rid of the set-asides, then, when the politicians are forced to make funding priority choices, we will get a clear look at who is beholden to the special interests. Those that side with perks and not our parks and safety should all be targeted to be thrown out of office. San Franciscans really need a tool (website?) that give us the ability to judge our elected officials on their records and alliances. The budget process is so complicated and the myriad of political deals and interests are so vast (and skillful) in this town, that unless you are following this stuff by the minute, you really can't know what is really going on. We need facts like voting records, top donors, recent and past political priorities, etc. Maybe even listing a few top issues/priorities in the City (parks, public safety, libraries, etc) and a grade for each Supervisor as to how much they have supported or not supported these things against other interests. Voters here in San Francisco really could use more resources to get past all the politics.

HARTSVILLE, SC (WMBF) - A student at Hartsville High School was arrested Wednesday morning after a threatening message was discovered at the school.
Hartsville High School administrators received information indicating a possible threat on Monday evening. The school contacted the Hartsville Police Department who investigated and provided extra personal at the school on Tuesday.
Based on the investigation, it appears that no malicious harm was intended, and the threat was unfounded, said Audrey Childers with the Darlington County School District.
The student responsible for the threat has been charged with "disturbing schools" and has been removed from the school, according to Childers. The student will face a school district disciplinary hearing.
"The safety of our students is our highest priority," Childers stated. "The district greatly appreciates the services and support provided by the Hartsville Police Department during the investigation and arrest."
"We take any and all inappropriate
or threatening communications seriously," said Police Chief James Hudson. "They
will be investigated by the Hartsville Police Department as seriously as any
other crime. We appreciate the full cooperation of the Darlington County School
District and its staff in this matter. We've always worked jointly and closely
with the district, and intend to keep doing so to ensure that all students are

To the editor:
Duped and grouped on the City Council, they sat helplessly by and watched themselves sign away the Fort to Beauport Gloucester, LLC.
Right again, Mr. Verga: there are no heroes on that panel!
Now is when the heroes step up — to forestall disaster and assure that this hotel project achieves the ultimate of its dubious potential.
I refer, of course, to the residents, successful businesses and their myriad devoted supporters that call the Fort home.
To the "rats leaving a sinking ship," I say, "Good-bye. Go fail someplace else."
