KANKAKEE, Ill. -- Former Illinois Governor George Ryan has been released from federal prison after serving six years on corruption charges.
Despite earlier reports, the 79-year-old Ryan will not be spending time at a Chicago half-way house. Instead, after spending about an hour checked into the Chicago facility, he was driven to his home in Kankakee, Illinois.
At least for the time-being, he is confined to the inside of the house. He still has six months to serve of his prison sentence.
Relatives, including some of his grandchildren, were seen arriving at the house after Ryan arrived there. Ryan's attorney, former Governor Jim Thompson, said Ryan was not getting preferential treatment.
"I think it was a wise decision on the part of the Bureau of Prisons, but it's not something I asked for or something he asked for, so it is in no way preferential treatment," said Thompson. "He's confined to the inside of his house, unless he has specific prior written permission from the Bureau of Prisons to leave."
Ryan will be subject to periodic checks from his counselor to make certain he is at home. Spokespeople for the halfway house said Ryan will be "vigorously monitored."

I'm liking these Guccis, especially the dome satchel.
hi~ i really like your blog…will u have Prada and miumiu's new collection?
Oh wow! I'm not one for exotics but the python is striking.
I'm falling in love with Gucci all over again! I love that Bright Bit Leather tote in sapphire!!
I love the clutch and the shoulder bag, which has a bit of a Celine box bag/PS11 feel to it. i wish it wasn't in patent, though.
I love the Bright Bit Clutch in teal. And the colors of the python shoulder bag are stunning. Top job Gucci !

Embarkment was a breeze, I can't say enough about that, a small line up for security, but it moved so fast.
Room - Minisuite (AB)Fantastic Room Steward. He was never intrusive and attending to all our needs. The room is spacious and feels like a normal hotel room. I can't say enough about how much I LOVED the full bathtub shower. The bed was comfortable, and the room always cool enough.
Entertainment - The shows I did see (Comedians) we fantastic! I saw one production show, and didn't return. It was ok. The house band Xtasea(sp)in Club Fusion was incredible.
Food - This is where my lack of interest stepped in. I thought the dining room service was rushed and lacked appeal. Our server was so busy, but he had very large tables to serve. They never did forget the pop or wine at the table. I found the food onboard this ship (outside of the Crown Grill and the Pizza Stand) mediocre. Sabatini's was terrible service and food. The buffet I only ate at breakfast, it was good, but lacked variety. The MDR food was like sitting thru a bad wedding banquet. The meat overcooked and sauce on EVERYTHING. The Desserts were DIVINE!!! Everyone raves about the International Cafe, I thought it was ok, I did enjoy the ham buns at 3am after a night at skywalkers though!
The absolute best part of this cruise was the lifelong friends we made. We had such a good time being in the same cruise space as them. Skywalkers Dancing, Hangover Lunch and the Aruba Beach....I wish I could go back.
My hubby and I asked eachother what cruise line we liked best, I have to go with RCCL....try it out again, and make our decision based on that.

Shouldn't we Standardize a Java Logging API?
If you are interested in Java EE development and the roadmap, you might have read recently that the Cloud feature in Java EE 7 has been delayed. As I've already expressed in the Java EE 7 expert group mailing list, I'm happy about this news because I feel standardizing cloud in EE 7 was way too early. But I'm also sad. Sad because we've spent a lot of time discussing Cloud, PaaS, multi-tenancy… and not concentrating on other topics. And one topic that I have in mind is logging! Shouldn't we standardize a Logging API ?
A few months ago I was struggling (again) with logging configuration in
JBoss 7.x. I was so depressed that I wrote to the Java EE 7 expert
group : Logs. Should we finally do something ? (you
should read it, there are valuable opinions expressed by the
members). As a developer I've used all the possible logging Java
frameworks for the last 12 years and I still struggle with logging in
2012. How many logging frameworks do we have ? Look at the list :
- JUL : the good old java.util.logging API that is included in our JDK. Bad luck, it is there and nobody uses it
- Log4j : widely used, Log4j hasn't really been updated lately (update : the team is working on a 2.0 version)
- Commons Logging : How many more Apache logging frameworks do you want ?
- SLF4J : if you are not sure which logging API to use, well, use an abstraction (hum, abstraction, we love abstraction)
- Logback : the successor of Log4J (successor ? really ?)
- TinyLog : because all these frameworks are too big, we need to use a tiny one
- And many many many more Java logging frameworks
I'm not a log expert and I'm sure all these frameworks exist for good reasons (I'm trying to be politically correct here), but for god sake, we just need to write logs. I don't want to do a benchmark of all the logging APIs to make up my mind. I don't want to have to relearn a new logging framework each time a new version of my application server is out (yes, JBoss 7 uses its own JBoss Logging API). To be honest, instead of all saying "using System.out.println is bad" we should have encouraged it and let Java SE redirect the messages to files (using external configuration). This way our code would be full of System.out.println("message") or System.out.println(WARNING, "message") and we would have avoided all the logging frameworks. Anyway, this is the situation we're in.
Let's standardize a logging API
Standardizing too soon is bad… but we've been doing logs for more than a decade now. We have a big expertise in logging, we could even take some ideas of other languages. So it's time to standardize logging. Let's not do the same mistake as JUL and only standardize an API. Then, we could let all the known frameworks to implement it and fight about better performances or functionalities. Today, logging portability is a nightmare, enough. With a standard API we could also have some tooling and descent log viewers coming on board.
Integrate this logging API in Java EE (and other specs)
If all the Java EE specs (EJB, JPA, JAX-RS, CDI…) use this standard API and impose it to the implementations, we could then easily change the level of logs in a standard way on our applications by using a simple package naming convetion:
javax.ejb.level = debug // EJB spec javax.persistence.level = debug // JPA spec org.weld.level = debug // CDI implementation (Weld) my.app.level = debug // My application
And who knows, when modularization arrives we could get rid of java.util.logging and have a new javax.logging module in Java SE (and choose the implementation).
Think to the future
If we had a Logging API 1.0 specification, then, when multi-tenancy comes along, we could have a Logging API 1.1 which handles it (wouldn't it be nice to have multi-tenant logs with no effort ?). Another idea would be to play with staging. JSF 2.0 introduced staging and it might be spread all over Java EE. If that's the case, we could simply use default logging : DEBUG for development, WARNING for production… That would simplify configuration.
Do you feel like being a spec lead ?
No, it's not because I write this blog post that I want to be a spec lead. I'm not the right person, I've never implemented a logging framework, I'm just a user of theses APIs. So if you feel you know the topic well, if you know people who could help you by being part of your expert group (if you want, I could even join this expert group), then do it. Entering the JCP is not a piece of cake, you need to do a bit of administration to have your JSR approved, but it's doable. You would need a bit of time, but it's doable. Even if you start now I'm not sure there will be enough time to take the Java EE 7 train, but the JCP has some examples of quick JSRs.
So, who wants to be a Logging API Spec Lead ? Do you think it's a good idea to standardize a Logging API ?

You are looking for an API, mention one, and fail to recognize it as an API. It is right under your nose.
- If log4j, jul, logback are logging frameworks, then slf4j and commons-logging are not. slf4j and commons-logging are facades that delegate to the log4j and jul. Logback is an implementation of the slf4j api. slf4j differs from commons-logging architecturally by the mechanism the facade uses to determine which framework to delegate. With slf4j, deployer (person who deploys) explicitly specifies the delegation (with a binding jar file in deployment package or container). Commons-logging delegates to the framework it discovers on the runtime classpath.
- The attempt to standardize is the root cause of the diversity. Logging framework WAS standardized on JUL. This standard dejure was ignored by many because log4j was the standard defacto at the time. Out popped commons-logging to resolve, but the dynamic discovery is problematic in a app server runtime. So, static binding is offerered now in slf4j. You are opening old wounds and history repeats (e.g. OSGI vs Jigsaw).
- Many open source libraries and systems are converging on slf4j as an API. It is a defacto standard. No need for a standardization committee. An attempt to standardize on an API will fracture things all over again.
- The problem you describe does not exist. I use this defacto api (slf4j) and the framework that suits the runtime requirements. I use logback during testing. My apps will run with either log4j or jul frameworks.
Let it lie.

Jonathan Fisher replied on Fri, 2012/09/07 - 11:18am
The community is slowing standardizing SLF4J IMHO. It's the API the author is looking for.
SLF4J is nothing but a vanilla API and set of interfaces. This author assumes it's an implementation. It's literally an API, nothing else.
Logback implements those interfaces. So it is _no way_ a successor, it's an *implementation*. SLF4J is useless without implementations, and Logback is useless without an API. There are 5-6 implementations of SLF4J, which is cool. I like choice :)
This is awesome for API designers/library inventors. Then can write their code with contextual log statements, and the consumer of their library can choose to ignore or add an implementation of those log statements later.
Honestly, if it isn't too much trouble, I'd ask the author to publish a correction; I'd hate for someone to make an assumption that Logback is a successor.
Nicolas Seyvet replied on Fri, 2012/09/07 - 11:20am in response to: Jonathan Fisher
I get the point of the author. Even if SLF4J is the de-facto standard it is not recognized as such because it is not a JSR API. It would simple to say: "OK, SLF4J is the standard. It is used as such -> JSR defined". End of conversation about which logging FW to use when developping SW.

Gregory Smith replied on Fri, 2012/09/07 - 2:24pm
My preference would be to have a "log" method on the Object class. Every object potentially needs logging - most will use logging at one time or another.
It could work the same way that JUL and log4j do, but natively as part of the Object class. Configuring the logger and appender could be done declaritively or programmatically with sane defaults just like log4j and JUL. Additional "trc", "dbg", "cfg", "inf", "wrn", "err", and "ftl" methods could be available as shortcuts for logging at particular log levels.
The JVM could be smart enough to recognise the calls to log methods and skip them entirely if they are below the log level (avoiding unneeded method calls).
Of course, it is a little late to be adding it to Java now as it would likely cause problems with existing code. Maybe a new language like Kotlin could add this feature.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 4mysoccerkid So far so good We purchased the shoes for my daughter to play her first season of soccer. so far we've gone two practices and there has been no signs of wear. They fit well, even with the two pairs of socks for the shin guards. Overall I am extremely happy with my purchase would recommend these as a top choice. September 13, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Maria Great shoes - run a little narrow Other reviews said these shoes ran narrow. I agree, but my daughter has narrow feet so I knew that would probably be a good thing. These shoes fit perfectly and she really likes them too. September 11, 2013

Rated 3 out of 5 by Steve Good Good for a beginer. Will last through out practice season. May 7, 2013

You could expand that sentence to ..".which consumers find to be useful."..
The quoted clause is then clearly an adjective clause with the relative pronoun acting as the direct object. "To be useful" is then more clearly an objective complement, as in "The sun makes apples ripe".

I don't believe Harvin was a me first player either. He was telling Frazier that receivers were getting open & Ponder wasn't throwing to them. He wasn't referring to just himself & the game tapes showed it as well. Yes he wanted to be paid, but what talented player doesn't?
I'm glad we got Jennings, but who here will be the first to say he didn't sign for the money, but rather that he felt Ponder could lead him to another SB before Rodgers could.
Is signing elsewhere for more money sound like a "team first" attitude?
Thing is with Harvin, with his loss of confidence in our QB, that pretty much breaks any trust he & Ponder might have had & forces Spielman to trade one or the other & Spielman has latched on to Ponder the same way he latched on to Feeley. Result: Harvin traded.
I think that is exactly what most Vikings fans fear most.
Personally, I have never understood the reach when they knew a much better quarterback draft class was coming in the following year.
They ended up aquiring McNabb as a place holder anyway.
Chosing Ponder could bring down Spielman and Frazier. I hope Ponder improves like they think he will. Most of us are skeptical.
Well, You may be right but if you are then I would say they would be totally redrawing the offense to do it because last year we basically ran with 2 TE's or a fullback a majority of the time and we still have all of those players on the squad. To me that is an indication we will see more of it and not so many 1 back, 3-4 WR sets. And factoring in the QB I would say I am pretty confident It won't deviate dramatically from what we saw.
Our offense can function perfectly fine provided Simpson can get his shit together this year, integrate into the scheme and be the deep threat and hopefully by giving him the extension they know something about his development that we don't. If it is the case that he is going to step up and be that guy, this is the offense.
Jennings Kalil Johnson Sully Fusco Load Rudolph Simpson
There is enough talent there to get the job done. Yeah, it's always great to have more, but then you limit touches and guys get down because they are not as involved.
At any rate, I don't see adding two or even 1 WR as a NEED as much as we have a need for MLB, an upgrade at one OLB and some depth in the DL and secondary so i would suspect that we would see much more attention to that side of the ball. Now, I am not advocating that we draft NO WR's in the draft and if one is there that they have rated as the BPA I would expect them to take one and would be fine with it. But I do not expect to see them trade up in the first to get one or to spend multiple high picks on the position at the expense of other positions.
On a side note, Jennings will be #15 this year.
How many time must you get your hand burned by fire before you get it.
No there isn't enough talent on offense. We have a good line but Jennings and Simpson is simply Percy and Simpson re wrapped. The only difference is connections to Jennings will be more typical. Our offense is paltry. The cupboard is bear. Forget last year and Peterson's DAMN NEAR RECORD BREAKING SEASON. It's not the norm. If Peterson goes back to being his regular...superhuman self (1400 yards 13 tds), we win 3 games. I am so sick of people saying if Simpson shows, we have a great offense. No we don't. We have 1 WR. The rest of them are terrible. If simpson shows us the best he has been, we have two WRs. Wright is at best average. We need 1 More WR. That's why a team like the packers can continue to generate WR corps after corps because they address the position. We on the other hand trade 1 star WR for an other and our fans think we are all set.

Hilti says its TE 2-A18 Rotary Hammer Drill delivers the same power as the TE 2 corded model
These compact, precise measures complement traditional tapes
As a remodeler who specializes in tile, I work on a lot of kitchens and bathrooms.
Hilti just introduced its largest electric demolition hammer yet, the TE 3000-AVR.
According to Hilti, the new PR26 self-leveling rotating laser level's green beam is easier to see than the standard red.
The two new lasers I tested for this article — Hilti's PMC 36 and Agatec's CPL 50 — combine features not usually found together on one tool.

How Many Tweets Are Posted to Twitter Each Day?
Since its launch in 2006, Twitter's popularity has skyrocketed. In fact, we recently found out just how long it would take to read just 24 hours worth of tweets (spoiler: a long time). If you're up for some more Twitter trivia, here's a good one for you: the company just released a truck load of current stats, including how many tweets are posted a day. Can you guess how many?

Local Government Board and predecessor and successor: Medical Department: Official Memoranda and Senior Officers' Papers
This series consists of, for the most part, an annual series of official memoranda used within the Medical Department successively of the Privy Council and the Local Government Board together with copies of reports of local inspections into infectious diseases. These papers are not a homogeneous collection. More than half the volumes can be associated with either Dr George Buchanan or his son Dr George Seaton Buchanan. The basis of this group is composed of Dr George Buchanan's personal collection of official papers. He brought together, initially for his own use, both office memoranda, used within the Medical Department of the Privy Council and later the Local Government Board, and copies of local reports of inspections into infectious diseases, made by departmental inspectors.
The series continues as an annual collection of similar papers certainly for the use of the Medical Department and probably for the use of the Medical Officer for the time being. The volumes contain manuscript annotations by successive Medical Officers: Buchanan, Thorne, Power and Newsholme. It is clear that separate sets of the reports of local inspections were made up, initially in the 1880s, for individual inspectors at the Medical Department of the LGB. The binding of these sets, if original, usually bears the name of the inspector for whom it was put together. The later volumes in this series have clear associations with Dr George Seaton Buchanan (1869-1935) and contain correspondence relating to food regulations under the Public Health Act 1907 and also include a set of papers of George Seaton Buchanan in his capacity as British Delegate to the Committee of Office International d'Hygiene Publique Paris 1919-1933.
For George Seaton Buchanan's personal file see MH 107/24
Ministry of Health, Medical Staff, 1919-1968
Privy Council Office, Medical Department, 1858-1871
Dr (later Sir) George Buchanan (1831-1895) was employed by the Privy Council Medical Department as an occasional inspector from 1861. The appointment became permanent and full time in 1869. Two years later he transferred, with the rest of the Medical Department, to the Local Government Board, and took on the duties of Assistant Medical Officer. He was promoted to Medical Officer to the Board at the beginning of 1880 and held the post until his retirement in 1892.
Dr (later Sir) George Seaton Buchanan (1869-1935) began his career as a Medical Inspector to the Local Government Board in 1895 and was its Chief Inspector of Foods from 1906 to 1911. When the Ministry of Health was formed in 1919 he became Senior Medical Officer until his retirement in 1934.

Carlo Petrini to Receive Highest UN Environmental Award
United States
18 Sep 13
Carlo Petrini has been named one of the eight winners of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Champions of the Earth award - the UN's flagship environment award that recognizes outstanding visionaries and leaders in the fields of policy, science and civil society action.
On September 18, 2013, during a ceremony in the American Museum of Natural History in New York, UN Under-Secretary General and UNEP Executive Director Achim Steiner will officially award the prize to the founder and president of Slow Food. As Petrini cannot be there in person, Richard McCarty, President of Slow Food USA, will receive the trophy on his behalf.
Outlining their motivations for choosing Petrini, the UNEP said:
"With this Prize, we recognize your remarkable accomplishment as the founder of the Slow Food Movement covering a network of over 100,000 supporters in over 150 countries. With the critical issue of sustainable consumption and production in the context of global food security, your movement has become a formidable force that defends local food traditions, protects local biodiversity, and promotes small-scale quality products with an increasing focus on investments in the South. Through the Presidia projects and the Terra Madre network of food communities, you have also helped focus attention on the important role of indigenous peoples in upholding food traditions as well as being the custodians of irreplaceable inherited knowledge".

"Home on the Range"
My Junior Olympic Experience
By Sarah Nakata
I initially began shooting smallbore (22 caliber long rifle) in prone position during the fall of 2010 with the Marion County Junior Rifle program, where I learned that shooting was a sport I wanted to continue. But as the Indiana weather got cooler, I transitioned indoors to air rifle. This was really my first experience with 3-position rifle. This subsequently led to entry into multiple smallbore and air rifle competitions. One of these competitions was the qualification match for the National Junior Olympics (NJO), which were run in conjunction with USA shooting.
In order to qualify for the National Junior Olympics Championship, competitors shoot either the top score for their gender, or a minimum qualifying score with adjustment made for their age. The Junior Olympics shooting events consist of both 10 meter air rifle and 50 meter smallbore rifle. Smallbore consists of a "3X20" in which 20 record shots are recorded in each of three positions of 1) prone, 2) standing, and 3) kneeling. I particularly enjoy shooting smallbore since it is more often shot in three positions versus International Air Rifle, which is shot only from the standing position. I was fortunate to qualify for the NJO match, which was held in Colorado Springs at the Olympic Training Center (OTC) in April of 2012.
I arrived in Colorado on a Thursday and arrived at the OTC range on Friday morning. However, before being allowed to shoot on the range, equipment is checked, to assure that all individuals shooting equipment meet the same specifications as though they were shooting in the Olympic Games. Some of the specifications that are tested include: rifle weight, coat/pant stiffness and thickness, and button overlap. After inspection it was determined that my shooting pants were too stiff and I was required to essentially wad and roll my shooting pants up a number of times in order to decrease the stiffness of the canvas (this process was in stark contrast to what my mother expects of me after she takes time to iron my pants). After a re-check I was off to the range.
My first day at the OTC consisted of a practice day. The facility consists of an upper and lower range each with air rifle and smallbore capabilities. It was very different from most ranges since air rifle is shot facing one direction at 10 meters and smallbore is rotated 90 degrees in order to accommodate the longer smallbore distance of 50 meters. The air rifle targets are on a pulley system, so the target is sent down to the 10 meter mark, shot, and then retrieved. I had never used this pulley system before, but it seemed to work well, although I definitely preferred the electronic MegaLink smallbore targeting system, which allows the user to obtain not only instantaneous scoring but also provides pinpoint shot placement. This gave me not only a more accurate reading, but made it so I did not have to use a spotting scope.
The air rifle matches occurred on Saturday and Sunday followed by the smallbore match on Monday and Tuesday. We had approximately 100 competitors in air rifle and 70 in smallbore. The Junior Olympics is often a "scouting match" and many of the coaches from NCAA college rifle teams attend. There were also a number of collegiate shooters who participated, although we did have shooters as young as twelve years of age.
While at the Olympic Training Center, I had the opportunity to stay in the dorms with many of my fellow competitors. I had a great time shooting, meeting other competitors and making new friends. Because there were 2-3 different relays for each competition, we were often only shooting for part of the day. This allowed competitors to spend time on the campus of the OTC, catch up on schoolwork, or go sightseeing. Typically my relay fell right in the middle of the day so I did not get to do a whole lot of sightseeing although I did have the chance to visit the Garden of the Gods. The rock structures and mountains were marvelous, especially since I've grown up in a very flat Indiana my entire life.
Many of us considered the cafeteria as a gathering point and quickly adapted to the tradition of eating frozen yogurt after shooting. The food at the OTC was very healthy and quite tasty. The chefs would cook dishes made to order in addition to their daily special.
During the match, I struggled most in air rifle to find my natural point of aim. Sadly, this happened on both days, so scores were not as high as I would have liked. The first day of smallbore was a little rough considering I had sub-consciously rushed the standing position in addition to having a target malfunction. Thankfully I was able to make correction in my positions and was able to finish the second day with a score a few points above average. Overall, I finished 56th in air rifle and 13th in smallbore.
I had a great time at the Olympic training center and it was really exciting to see all the other athletes from the various other Olympic disciplines. I hope to have the opportunity to compete in this championship again in the future.

Cedar City, UT –The Utah Shakespeare Festival will be celebrating our Armed Forces on Tuesday, July 16 and Wednesday July 17 by offering free tickets to the evening performances of Peter and the Starcatcher and Twelve Angry Men for military personnel and their families. The Festival appreciates the sacrifices of the men and women who serve and wants to recognize their dedication and commitment to this country.
The Festival will be proud to welcome Utah's 222nd National Guard and any other active or inactive service personnel, as well as their families. A valid military ID is required.
In this regional premiere of Peter and the Starcatcher, Peter Pan, that spunky boy we've loved through the years, has another story to tell. In this colorful play with magic more powerful than pixie dust, you'll learn how Peter, the lost boys, pirates, and mermaids came to inhabit Neverland. Meet an enchanting girl, Molly, with spunk of her own as she and Peter sail a stormy sea, traipse through a mysterious island, spar with the most evil of men, and learn to soar for the sake of good. The adventures never end with Peter Pan, and his wild journey here at the Utah Shakespeare Festival is surely going to lift your spirits.
On a sweltering August night in New York City, the jury files into the deliberation room for Reginald Rose's American classic, Twelve Angry Men. When the door is locked behind them, twelve nameless men from twelve varied backgrounds must decide the fate of a young man accused of killing his father. Faced with playing the executioner, these dozen men must first face themselves, their biases, and their own sense of justice. This American classic will have you on the edge of your seat until the final verdict is announced.
Military personnel are invited to reserve tickets to both shows. Peter and the Starcatcher will play on Tuesday, July 16 at 8 p.m. Twelve Angry Men will be on Wednesday, July 17 at 8 p.m. without an intermission and with a talkback immediately following the performance.
To reserve tickets, military personnel should contact the Festival ticket office at 800-PLAYTIX or 435-586-7878. A valid military ID will be required to pick up the tickets, and there is a limit of six tickets per family. Space is limited for this special event, so call soon to reserve your seats.

Anytime a teacher takes the initiative to do something extra to help students learn life skills, it should be honored and rewarded. I hope this can happen here. Our young adults deserve to have training opportunities for future jobs as not all students may want to go directly to college. Congratulations to a teacher who has come up with a creative way to make that happen. I've heard that some of her former students have started their own businesses!
on Jan 18, 2010 at 8:15 am
No Surprise...just another brain dead move by the San Ramon Valley "Unified" School District. Must follow the rules. If that's true the SRVUSD should clean up their own house.
on Jan 18, 2010 at 8:42 am
This is a sad commentary on how this school district, which should be creating opportunities for students, bows to business interests. This is just another example of poor educational decisions. AND, might I add, why is the public finding out about this after the cafe closed? Hopefully something can be done to get the student-run establishment reopened for future years. Chartwells shouldn't have to be the only choice!

Another legal challenge to prison health care privatization loomsTuesday, September 11th, 2012 by Dara Kam
The union representing state workers has vowed to file another lawsuit if a legislative committee approves the privatization of all prison health care services tomorrow.
Lawyers for the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees contend the move to outsource the health care for Florida's 100,000 inmates is illegal.
The Joint Legislative Budget Commission is slated tomorrow to vote on a request from the Department of Corrections to transfer money within the agency to pay for contracts with two private companies, Wexford Health Sources and Corizon. The state now spends about $350 million a year on prison health care, including drugs. The agency plans to begin the privatization, affecting about 2,600 employees, on Jan. 1.
The GOP-dominated legislature last year gave the corrections department permission to outsource the prison health care privatization in budget "proviso" language, but the privatization has been tied up in court. AFSCME and the Florida Nurses' Association challenged the privatization, saying it was a major policy change that needed to be approved in a stand-alone bill. A judge thwarted a similar attempt to privatize a large portion of the state's prisons last year, and lawmakers were unable to pass a prison privatization bill during the legislative session that ended in March.
A Leon County circuit judge did not rule on the health care privatization lawsuit because the proviso language expired with the June 30 end of the 2011-12 fiscal year.

In what must be the mother of all coincidental medical conditions, Tennessee head coach Butch Jones has declared defensive tackle Maurice Couch out for Saturday's game against Oregon, thanks to a curious case of heat exhaustion.
Butch Jones says Mo Couch won't play on Saturday due to heat exhaustion he suffered on Tuesday.— Evan Woodbery (@TennesseeBeat) September 12, 2013
This would be just another run-of-the-mill personnel update if it weren't for the fact that on Wednesday, Couch was one of five SEC players named in a Yahoo! Sports investigation for receiving improper benefits from agents and financial advisers. Couch, a senior, is the only one of the five who's still playing college football; the rest, including former teammate QB Tyler Bray, have all exhausted their eligibility.
Now, it could very well be the case that Couch suffered heat exhaustion on Tuesday. He hasn't tweeted since that morning. It was pretty hot in Knoxville that day. Also, he's a big dude: 6'2" and 304 pounds, according to Tennessee.
And yet it seems much more likely that Couch is being withheld from competition for the foreseeable future since his amateur status is now very much in doubt. Tennessee issued a statement that it was "aware of the article and are examining all of the relevant facts," per GoVolsXtra.com, so it seems like only a matter of time before Couch's status with the team is more clearly defined and nobody has to ask him, "hot enough for ya?" any time soon.

By STEVE OUELLETTE, Movie Review
---- — In the movies, pirates are generally hard-living, cutlass-wielding rogues with peg legs and parrots. "Captain Phillips," however, offers an engrossing glimpse at the modern version of pirates, whose idea of buried treasure is something wholly different.
It's a fascinating and realistic re-telling of the much-publicized 2009 hijacking of a cargo ship helmed by Vermont's Richard Phillips, though it falls a bit short of the expectations of greatness generated by the film's media hype.
An understated Tom Hanks stars as Phillips, a no-nonsense captain who guides his unarmed all-American crew on a journey through dangerous waters off the coast of Somalia. Sure enough, armed pirates in rickety boats attack and eventually board his ship, the Maersk Alabama.
There's $30,000 in the safe and hundreds of containers full of cargo, but the big money comes from ransoming hostages — especially ones from a rich country like the United States.
Phillips goes mostly by the book trying to repel the attackers, with a few clever ideas of his own thrown in. Once the pirates are on board — and with most of the crew hiding below decks per his orders — he then bravely does what he can to mislead and slow them.
Eventually, the pirates are convinced to leave the ship in a lifeboat, but Phillips is forced to go with them and a standoff with the U.S. Navy looms.
Director Paul Greengrass, who helmed two of the "Bourne" films and "United 93," brings his trademark shaky cams to the ocean drama and lets the story tell itself, refusing to add much manufactured Hollywood drama.
Using non-professional actors, he also humanizes the pirates. Rather than straight-out villains, they're played as somewhat sympathetic pawns — would-be fisherman toiling under the whim of a dangerous warlord.
Barkhad Abdi, as the rail-thin pirate leader Muse is particularly effective, showing both a dash of bravado and a sense of regret.
Some of the movie's drama drains away, however, when it gets to the claustrophobic lifeboat and the four emaciated pirates who face the combined might of the U.S. military.
Hanks does a fine job as Phillips, yet another everyman for the Oscar-winner. He will again earn some Oscar buzz, though to me he falls short of trophy level this time around, if for no other reason than his spotty Boston accent, which he seemed to adopt to signify Vermont.
It's worth noting, though, that his closing scene (with a real-life Navy corpsman) was unscripted and largely ad-libbed on the spot.
"Captain Phillips" is a very good thriller, with a complicated social conscience. It's well worth watching, despite its imperfections.
Rental Recommendation: "United 93" is haunting and realistic and almost certain to draw tears. Grade: A
Email Steve Ouellette: firstname.lastname@example.com
"Captain Phillips"
Starring: Tom Hanks, Barkhad Abdi, Michael Chernus
Rated: PG-13 (for sustained intense sequences of menace, some violence with bloody images, and for substance use)
Running time: 134 minutes

Report: Colts WR Gonzalez tweaks ankle

Colts rookie Angerer shows fine leadership
Not only did MLB Pat Angerer record some impressive stats during his first start in Week Six, the second-round rookie proved just as adept at directing the Indianapolis defense.
Indianapolis has signed Franklin and is bringing back offensive guard Joe Reitz. The Colts made the announcements Wednesday afternoon.||||||| Franklin, who is 6-foot-1, 315 pounds, is a 10-year veteran who played most recently with San Diego last year. He made nine starts for the Chargers and finished with 23 tackles. He was originally drafted by Baltimore in 2003, has four career sacks and is the eighth free agent Indy has signed from another team.
A person familiar with the situation says the New Orleans Saints have agreed to contract terms with Franklin.||||||| The 6-foot-1, 317-pound Franklin is a proven run defender who has started the past four seasons for San Francisco after beginning his career in Baltimore.
Franklin has ended his holdout by signing a $7 million franchise tag tender. Franklin officially signed the deal Saturday before the Niners played the Oakland Raiders in an exhibition game. This gives Franklin a little more than two weeks to get ready for the season opener Sept. 12 against Seattle.||||||| The sides were unable to reach terms on a long-term deal before a deadline in July. Franklin did not report to training camp, but finally signed the contract that will pay him $7.003 million this season. Franklin emerged as one of the top nose tackles in the league last season with 36 tackles, two sacks and an interception.
According to the San Francisco Chronicle, the veteran nose tackle reportedly is about to rejoin his teammates after missing all the offseason training, the minicamp and the four-week training camp.||||||| Franklin is expected to sign a one-year contract for $7.003 million and watch the 49ers play the Raiders at the Oakland Coliseum.
The San Francisco 49ers placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on Franklin on Tuesday.||||||| The move allows the Niners to match any offer Franklin receives from another team or get two first-round picks as compensation. Franklin is guaranteed just more than $7 million next season with the tag. General manager Scot McCloughan says the team still hopes to sign Franklin to a long-term contract before the start of next season. Franklin emerged as one of the top nose tackles in the league last season with 36 tackles, two sacks and an interception.
