A Colorado woman was impaled by a light pole after she crashed because she was texting and driving.
Bond has been raised for a woman accused of murdering her boyfriend.
Shayna Hubers is currently being held at the Campbell County Detention Center. Her bond increased Wednesday morning to $5 million.
Hubers' attorney, Wil Zevely, tells FOX19 that the bond was raised overnight and he has no idea why.
Hubers is facing a murder charge in the death of her boyfriend, Ryan Poston, 29, a Cincinnati attorney. She was being held on a $2 million bond after her arrest.
Authorities responded to a residence in Highland Heights on Friday night and found Poston suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. A motive for the shooting has not been released.
Poston's family released another statement on Wednesday morning saying that any claims of self-defense by Hubers are 'absurd.'
A hearing will be at 9 a.m. in Campbell County Court.

FROM THE DEN AT WOLF THEATRES— It's tempting to simply dismiss "Carrie" as another unnecessary remake.
But although this high school horror flick about a bullied teenage girl with telekinesis and a whack-job, hyper-religious mother does indeed fall into the "unnecessary" category, it's a mistake to completely dismiss it.
Both the 1974 Stephen King book upon which this film is based and "Carrie's" first cinematic interpretation in 1976 by Director Brian De Palma have, in some ways, become indelibly woven into modern pop culture. Sound like an overstatement? If I say "pigs' blood," what comes to mind? How about "Carrie at the prom?" How about "they're all gonna laugh at you?"
"Carrie's" legendary status is what makes this remake perplexing. Why would a mainstream filmmaker – in this case Director Kimberly Peirce ("Boys Don't Cry") – want to create a remake that's a proverbial "red-headed wanna-be" before shooting a single frame? Obviously, Peirce came to the source material believing she had something new to add. She mostly fails, but DOES succeed in subtly updating the material for a modern, technologically-obsessed culture.
She also succeeds in making these characters feel real and vibrant to a degree that even surpasses, to some extent, the De Palma film. The scenes wherein we watch Carrie White (Chloë Grace Moretz) being bullied by her classmates are awkward and painful. Peirce does an impressive job portraying the pain of being an awkward, isolated, browbeaten teenage outcast. In fact, I found myself embarrassed for Carrie and her classmates, even wanting to look away from the screen at times.
Pierce also manages to up De Palma ever-so-slightly in her handling of teenage do-gooder and "it" girl Sue Snell (Gabriella Wilde). Following the infamous shower scene (another of "Carrie's" iconic moments), Snell feels so guilty for her role, she convinces boyfriend Tommy Ross (Ansel Elgort) to ask Carrie to Senior Prom instead of Sue herself. Wilde's performance creates an empathy for Sue's remorse and genuine desire to make amends that De Palma's film lacks.
Of course, Carrie ultimately accepts Tommy's invitation, accompanying him to prom; unless you live under a rock, you likely know how THAT turns out. Chief bully Chris Hargensen (Portia Doubleday) is roughly equal to her 1976 counterpart (Nancy Allen) and maybe a bit crueler. Then again, 2013 Hargensen has technological tools of cruelty not available to '70s-era Chris, which she takes full advantage of, another aspect that makes this remake at times difficult to watch.
Likewise, Julianne Moore's portrayal of Carrie's crazy mamma is on par with Piper Laurie's 1976 portrayal.
Peirce's remake lacks the surreal, dreamlike quality of De Palma's film, though, and although Moretz is serviceable as the tormented Carrie White, she's no Sissy Spacek. Likewise, this remake's infamous Prom scene is competent enough, but to a degree, its higher-quality visual effects are more detriment than advantage; there was a point I found myself thinking of Carrie White as just one more incarnation of the X-men.
Bottom line, if you're a horror-movie fan and haven't seen the original "Carrie," you're apt to greatly enjoy this film. Taken on its own merits, Peirce's film is watchable and entertaining. If you HAVE seen the original, though, it's impossible not to continually compare the two (as I've done here), and this version doesn't stack up. That's fair enough, because De Palma's version IS indeed a genre- and legacy-defining masterpiece.
Peirce's film simply doesn't infuse the source material with enough cinematic distinctiveness to justify its existence. Alas, 20 years from now, people will likely STILL be talking about De Palma's film, while this version will probably be long forgotten.

Anyone who has been transfixed by a gymnast or a figure skater knows that the magic happens when they perform flawlessly and yet make it seem easy. That's how a search should work: Enter a query, and the right results appear in simple, elegant fashion -- even if it took countless hours of preparation to make the magic possible.
Yet most enterprise users still stumble as they try to extract data from multiple repositories, each with its own search engine. Enterprises seem awash in a rising tide of structured and unstructured data. And even though users are often forced to tag documents manually across various content management systems in hopes that those documents will be easier to retrieve, searches still yield a surfeit of irrelevant, time-wasting results.
ESPs (enterprise search platforms) are on a mission to change all that. These new, comprehensive bundles of search and integration technologies unlock information tucked away in data stores across the enterprise. The goal of ESPs is deceptively simple: to take fairly simple queries and return the most relevant results possible, all in one place. But under the hood, ESPs aggregate a host of emerging technologies such as autocategorization, entity extraction, and NLP (natural language processing). With an ESP as a foundation, businesses can build customized search applications while automating the process of preparing documents for archiving and indexing.
"The building blocks are converging so that you don't have to cobble together all the pieces yourself," observes Susan Feldman, vice president of content technology research at IDC. These advanced search platforms establish sophisticated gateways to silos of information -- even those with their own search engines. ESPs also provide a common set of data and search logic that can be tuned on an application-by-application basis to improve the relevance of search results.
IBM last month came out swinging with its DB2 Information Integrator, code-named Masala, which contains an advanced search engine designed to complement the company's other heavy hitters in the content management arena, DB2 Content Manager and WebFountain. With Masala, IBM joins the ranks of Autonomy, Convera, EasyAsk, Endeca, Fast Search & Transfer (FAST), iPhrase, and Verity, each of which offers search-application platforms with a different mix of features.
Breaking down the walls
ESPs are transforming the way the enterprise conducts a federated search, the process by which a single query is passed to multiple search engines and the user is presented with aggregated results. A federated search can augment searches of similar data stores but loses traction when it runs up against external databases that require specific syntax.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hugo (blu ray)...5 well-deserved Oscars...Should have Best Picture and Best Original Score Oscars too!!!
Hugo arrives at blu ray with MPEG-4 AVC 1080p 1.78:1 encode. This transfer is beautifully detailed. Clarity is astonishing. Details far and wide -- whether in the train station or as seen in the overhead shots of Paris -- are spectacularly sharp and crisp. Close-up detailing is even more amazing. Not only are facial texture marvellous and clothing...

3.0 out of 5 stars Where ever Hugo there you are
This is a unique combination of the way the story is told as an interweaving of a fictional protagonist to tell the story of a real life person. I have seen the formula of interweaving reality with a fictional character before; one of the most famous is "Sophie's World" by Jostein Gaarder.
Any way the basic story is of a child that loses his father and thinks...

5.0 out of 5 stars Hugo (blu ray)...5 well-deserved Oscars...Should have Best Picture and Best Original Score Oscars too!!!,
Dr. Joseph Lee (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
Hugo arrives at blu ray with MPEG-4 AVC 1080p 1.78:1 encode. This transfer is beautifully detailed. Clarity is astonishing. Details far and wide -- whether in the train station or as seen in the overhead shots of Paris -- are spectacularly sharp and crisp. Close-up detailing is even more amazing. Not only are facial texture marvellous and clothing textures faultless, but the transfer's ability to capture and display the finest little nuances of worn gears, rusted metal, scuffed floors, and rough bricks is outstanding. The black levels appear naturally and deeply inky, with detail quality coming across with seriously impressive textural punch, and colour accuracy also well-defined. Simply a magnificent transfer. (5/5)
Hugo's DTS-HD MA 7.1 lossless soundtrack makes full use of the entire stage -- the extra two surround channels included -- to create a seamless sound field that creates with great clarity and attention to detail the Paris train station, the mechanical objects, and other niceties scattered throughout the picture. Music delivery is perfectly spaced and immersive, playing with superb clarity as each note floats effortlessly into the listening area. Dialogue is clear and accurate. Dynamic range is unbelievable, with tremendous fidelity. Another great soundtrack from Howard Shore, who should have won the Oscar for Best Original Score. (5/5)
This movie has a budget of $170 million, but so far to date, the gross receipt is only $106 million. (The Artist grossed even much less!) Losing the Best Picture Oscar to The Artist reminds me of the top grossing picture of all-time Avatar losing to The Hurt Locker in 2010.
This is Martin Scorsese's first PG rated film in 18 years, and his first feature film in twelve years not starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
The Eiffel Tower was (and still is) the tallest building in France, and dominates the skyline of Paris. Yet when Hugo and Isabelle are at the top of the clock tower at the station, the camera clearly looks DOWN at the top of the tower.
The movie is set in 1931. But the Django Reinhardt character is shown with a Selmer Maccaferri oval-hole guitar, which was not introduced until 1936. Also, he looks a bit older than the real Django, who would have been just barely 21.
The accordionist in the film is shown with a piano accordion, but Parisian accordionist in those days almost exclusively played the chromatic button accordion, and most still do.
When Hugo and Isabelle talk in the street outside her apartment, they are shivering and it is snowing but we cannot see their breath, revealing the scene was probably shot in the studio.
When the automaton is drawing the image, it begins by dipping the pen in an inkwell, and the nib emerges with black ink clearly seen on it. However, subsequent closeups of the pen show the nib dry, and a black pencil lead can be seen beneath the nib, which is what actually creates the marks on the paper.
Some people wondered whether Johnny Depp played a cameo as a band member. The answer is No. Johnny Depp was a producer on the film and was offered a cameo part, but he was busy at the time. The actor playing Django Reinhardt is as stated in the credits: Emil Lager, who does look a bit like Johnny Depp.
This movie was nominated for 11 Oscars, and deservedly won 5 Oscars (mostly on the technical side): Best Cinematography (Robert Richardson's gorgeous works demonstrated vividly in this blu ray release), Best Art Direction, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing (as demonstrated in the audio) and Best Visual Effects. I personally feel that Howard Shore deserved the Oscar for Best Original Score.
Hugo is a wonderful movie. The actors are all great (like Asa Butterfield as Hugo Cabret, Ben Kingsley as George Melies, Sacha Baron Cohen as the Station Inspector, Chlo� Grace Moretz as Isabelle, Christopher (Count Dracula) Lee as Monsieur Labisse and Jude Law as Hugo's father). The first half of the movie was a little slow, but the fantastic video and immersive music and sound effects will keep you mesmerized. In my opinion, Hugo should have won the Best Picture Oscar, while Howard Shore should get the Best Original Score Oscar. This movie is very highly recommended for all...young and old! I hope the above review is helpful to you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the best,
L. Power "nlp trainer" (San Francisco) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hugo (2011) Combo Pack (3D Blu Ray / 2D Blu Ray / DVD / Digital Copy ) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
One of my favorite Oscar moments a few years ago came when after a highly distinguished career, fellow directors Spielberg, Lucas, and Coppola finally presented Scorsese with his first and long overdue directing Oscar for The Departed.
Throughout an illustrious directing career, Scorsese has directed some of the most critically acclaimed movies ever made, such as Raging Bull, Cape Fear, Goodfellas, The Aviator, and many many more.
Not only is he a great director, he is also a tremendous movie scholar, responsible for keeping in circulation classic movies such as Thief of Bagdad, a 1941 masterpiece, which influenced him, Coppola and Lucas, and the classic Red Shoes by Powell and Pressburger.
In addition he lectures in University on the movies, and you can get his dvd A Personal Journey with Martin Scorsese Through American Movies, which explores movies by well known directors of the past such as King Vidor, Fritz Lang, Cecil DeMille. Watching this made me realise the importance and contribution of the director.
Hugo leads the Academy award nominations list this year with 11 nominations, closely followed by The Artist with 10, Warhorse, The Descendants, Midnight in Paris, all outstanding movies. Nominations for Hugo include Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay.
As the movie begins, in one extended shot we zoom through a bustling Paris railway station in 1931, and you become instantly aware that this is no ordinary movie. We meet a 12 year old urchin named Hugo who lives there. Circumstance has committed him to winding and repairing the clocks, and scrabbling for survival as a railway urchin, and we notice that he has a tremendous gift for repairing gadgets, be it watches, clockwork toys, or automatons. Although the story appears to be about a boy, it quickly morphs into a dual story as he comes into contact with a store owner in the station, from whom he steals, and his young granddaughter who befriends him. Secondary stories develop with various other characters at the station.
The store owner played by Ben Kingsley is based on a real life character George Melies, and the story develops in simply amazing ways, and the urchin combines with a young girl to reveal a mystery to which she holds the key, a boy, a girl, an automaton, movie magic, and the story works in wonderful ways.
I saw it in 3D and I believe this is the best way to watch, so see it if you can while it is still in the movies. As you watch the movie moves ticks along like clockwork, and we have extensive intricate imagery that I was at times simply in awe as I watched the movie, we have crosscutting between the events of the time, and silent movies, with parallellism and repetition from classic movies occurring in the actual story. This is where Scorsese's scholarship and love of the movies shows through, as the the two children meet a movie scholar who looks a little like Scorsese, and ultimately the movie becomes a homage to cinematic genius.
Ben Kingsley does an extraordinary acting job, and I was particulaly gripped by one emotional moment few actors could do with the same effect. As you watch this movie, if you're like me you become totally transported, some of the imagery and ticking sound effects remain with me even as I write.
One thing I notice about Hollywood movies set in France in France is the convention of hiring using English actors to play French parts, and using American actors with English accents. Interesting. It turns out that Martin Scorsese and I share the same birthday so we share a little more in common than a love of the movies. I highly recommend this movie. It's quite spectacular.
Post awards update. Hugo won five Oscars for Cinematography, Art Direction, Sound Editing, Sound Mixing and Visual Effects. Certainly, what Scorsese did with this movie merited the award for Best Director. Almost always Best Picture and Director go to the same movie. On only one or two occasions has this not happened in 84 years.
In my opinion, what Scorsese accomplished as director of this movie, and the attention to the most intricate of details was unmatched by any other director this year. I say that even though I totally love The Artist.
I think you will love it, and I hope this was helpful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hugh,
This review is from: Hugo (2011) Combo Pack (3D Blu Ray / 2D Blu Ray / DVD / Digital Copy ) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
One of the best 3D movies I have seen at home.
Quality is exceptional and the film is very entertaining.
4.0 out of 5 stars Hugo (Blu-Ray / DVD / Digital Copy) [Blu-ray],
I've given a rating of 4 because it is an excellent movie
A very good movie can be viewed by the whole family.
But I feel that is more for kids 11 years and older.
I would recommend viewing by the whole family.
5.0 out of 5 stars Out of his comfort zone...,
Simon Bergeron - See all my reviews
It feels to me like Shutter Island was a definitive time in Martin Scorsese's career. Not only did it mark the director's first tackle into a suspense/eerie story (if memory serves), but his following film, Hugo, sealed his decision to truly better himself by offering us something we've rarely seen before: childhood through his eyes.
Hugo is a real achievement. A film about film, one that would have deserved much more awards than this. The child actors give nuanced, even mature performances at times, the background, storyline and overall film truly mesmerize the senses. Having recently seen Méliès' "Voyage to the Moon", Hugo's distinct homage to cinema's first filmmaker made Martin Scorsese's picture all the more important. This passing of age story has action, acting, special effects, costumes, touching moments and many more for everyone to marvel at.
Sadly, the special features are quite short and consist only of a few featurettes that total a running time of 56 minutes. An insult to this great production, and to make matters worse, several of those featurettes are not that interesting, feeling more like an EPK material, which makes no sense given that you've already bought or rented the movie in the first place, so selling an already bought film... you know...
3.0 out of 5 stars Where ever Hugo there you are,
bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - See all my reviews
This is a unique combination of the way the story is told as an interweaving of a fictional protagonist to tell the story of a real life person. I have seen the formula of interweaving reality with a fictional character before; one of the most famous is "Sophie's World" by Jostein Gaarder.
Any way the basic story is of a child that loses his father and thinks that his father left him a message that will change his life. In the process of perusing the message he meets Georges Méliès who may just have a message to change the reader's life.
The book incorporated a lot of pictures to help tell the story. This is innovative and holds your attention. However it did not translate well into the film as the film was slow and dragged a lot in scenes and even dialog. They lost the continuity and purpose of the story by incorporating the station inspector story that was a minor part of the book. It was too slapstick. What was great graphics in the book translated in almost cartoonish graphics in the film. However they did an excellent presentation of how the original films were designed to show us the stuff that dreams were made of.
The flat screen version was well enough. The 3D graphics were sort of gimmicky sort of looking through a stereoscope; however they were several fields deep.
So we have some unnecessary story added and some slow dragging parts but in the end the feel of the original book shines through.

Best 3D movie ever made. 3D effects beat even famous Avatar. Amazing picture and sound quality. It is a family movie. It is a masterpiece but some people may not like this topic. Pay attention to character amazingly well played by Sasha Baron Cohen (Borat).

5.0 out of 5 stars Celebrating the magic machine,
Gary Fuhrman "gnox" (Manitoulin Island) - See all my reviews
Martin Scorsese's latest film is wonderful entertainment for all ages, with everything a great family film should have: a warmhearted story with drama and suspense, a cartoonish villain who turns out to be human after all, appealing characters played with just the right balance between simplicity and psychological realism, even scene-stealing dogs and a happy ending. It is also visually spectacular, even without 3D (i haven't seen this film in a theatre). The period detail is impeccable, yet with a strong sense throughout that magic is afoot. Right from the opening shot, the special effects are state-of-the-art and always integral to the story.
Yet this is more than a family film. For one thing, it is rich in details that only sophisticated viewers will notice, such as the fleeting apparitions of James Joyce and Salvador Dali. (Unlike Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris, which is set in the same city and period, this film does not focus on the now-famous artists and writers who gathered there in the 1920s.) But above all, it's a direct celebration of the magic of movies -- specifically of Georges Méliès, who began as a 19th-century stage magician with a brilliant mechanical sense, and went on to discover new ways of using machines to create illusions.
This is of course an homage to a film pioneer, paid by a director with an encyclopedic knowledge of (and respect for) the cinematic art and its history. But it's also a strikingly original take on machines, a counterpoint to classics like Chaplin's Modern Times or Fritz Lang's Metropolis, where giant machines represent everything that stifles creativity and life. Ever since William Blake, the vision of the universe as a vast machine has only seemed vastly evil, or at least depressing, to most of us. That feeling also comes across in Hugo, but only briefly, as a fleeting nightmare. Hugo himself is driven by the opposite feeling. As he says in the middle of the film, he is deeply attracted to the idea of the universe as a machine, because machines come without any useless parts, and that means that every life -- including his own -- must have a purpose. His immediate purpose is to fix the mysterious automaton his father has left him -- but that only leads him to a deeper purpose (which of course i won't reveal to those who haven't seen the film.)
Entertaining as it is, this film too leads us deeper into the paradoxes involved in human relations with technology. The many extras included on the blu-ray in this combo package offer plenty of insight into the history, artistry and technology behind the film. Viewers who are philosophically inclined will find further entertainment in pondering the paradoxes involved in the meshing of machinery and creativity, perhaps also of illusion and reality. In short, there's plenty here for everyone who likes movies.

MILWAUKEE (WKOW) -- An investigation shows senior citizens across the country may be the victims of a business based in Wisconsin.
WISN 12 News in Milwaukee investigated "AFD Medical Advisors" which claims to help patients get prescriptions at a discount or free. But the Better Business Bureau says it's been getting about 60 calls a month since mid-November about the company, saying AFD called elderly people and told them things like, they needed to make a payment or their "Medicare would be canceled the next day."
The complaints say AFD would withdraw $299 from a patient's bank account, but they never got anything in return.
Vickie Thompson says her mother got a call from AFD. "I think it's horrible. I think the company that's running this is just voracious, they need to be put under the jail somewhere."
The Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions lists Aaron F. Dupont as AFD's registered agent. His home is in the Wausau area and the business's address was tracked to a P.O. Box at a UPS store in Stevens Point. When WISN contacted Dupont at his home, he said he didn't know about any complaints about his company to the BBB. The BBB says it has contacted him with concerns he's preying on the elderly.
The BBB, Wisconsin's Office of Consumer Protection and a couple police agencies are now investigating AFD.

CBS Cues Up GM's CEO to Proclaim Obama Saved GM – and the Country
"Did President Obama save General Motors?" CBS's Dean Reynolds asked General Motors Chairman and CEO Daniel Akerson as both sat inside a GM plant. On Thursday's CBS Evening News, Akerson affirmed he did and "the Obama administration did a good job."
Reynolds pointed out how Mitt Romney "argued the bailout was unnecessary, and that the regular bankruptcy process would have made GM and Chrysler stronger companies. Would that have happened?" Akerson rejected the notion, insisting if not for the bailout "you could have written off this company, this industry, and this country."
"Instead," Reynolds, hailed, "GM announced today that 47,500 blue collar workers in the U.S. will be getting profit sharing checks next month, checks of approximately $7,000 apiece."
Anchor Scott Pelley led his newscast by championing good news on the economy, seemingly eager to advance an Obama-friendly storyline:
You've been telling us in poll after poll that the economy is the biggest problem facing the country. So we start tonight with new evidence that it's getting better. The number of Americans putting in their first claims for unemployment benefits is at a four-year low, 348,000; home construction is up one and a half percent and General Motors, back from bankruptcy, reported record profits for 2011, $7.6 billion. We have three correspondents covering...
Meanwhile, Diane Sawyer was giddy about GM over on ABC, leading World News:
What a comeback, tonight, for an American giant, General Motors, announcing a $7.6 billion profit last year -- the biggest in the 103-year history of GM. And this rebound comes just two years after GM emerged from bankruptcy, with the help of that bailout by taxpayers. Today, factory workers, once afraid of getting pink slips, learned they're getting bonus checks worth $7,000 each. ABC's David Muir is live for us tonight, from the factory floor just outside Detroit. They must be feeling great, David.
David Muir began: "They sure are, Diane. And it's incredible when you think about it this way. This very plant, right outside Detroit, just a couple years ago was sitting idle. The workers had been sent home, laid-off. They had no idea if they were ever be coming back..."
From Wednesday night: "ABC Showcases Chrysler Workers to Decry Romney's Opposition to Bailout"
From the Thursday, February 16 CBS Evening News:
DEAN REYNOLDS: ...U.S. taxpayers have recovered nearly half of their $50 billion investment in GM when the U.S. Treasury took a majority stake in the company back in 2009. The government still owns 500 million shares and if it wants to sell and just break even, GM stock will have to double in value from where it is today.
DANIEL AKERSON, GM CHAIRMAN AND CEO: They're a shareholder, just like a couple of hundred thousand shareholders we have. We're working on their behalf and we hope they get all their money back. It will be determined by them, depending on when they want to sell.
REYNOLDS: GM has 12,000 fewer employees than it did the year before restructuring, and has cut back on pay and pension benefits. But work shifts have been added at three U.S. facilities and two plants here have been reopened.
REYNOLDS TO AKERSON: Did President Obama save General Motors?
AKERSON: Without the money, without the funding, it would have been very problematic. So at the risk of alienating a whole lot of potential customers, I would say the Obama administration did a good job.Story Continues Below Ad ↓
REYNOLDS: Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney and other critics have argued the bailout was unnecessary, and that the regular bankruptcy process would have made GM and Chrysler stronger companies.
REYNOLDS TO AKERSON: Would that have happened?
AKERSON: Not in my opinion, and it would have been in bankruptcy for years, and I think you could have written off this company, this industry, and this country.
REYNOLDS: Instead, Scott, GM announced today that 47,500 blue collar workers in the U.S. will be getting profit sharing checks next month, checks of approximately $7,000 apiece.

Pure bull. Akerson's only
Submitted by HockeyKid on Thu, 02/16/2012 - 10:43pm.
Pure bull. Akerson's only experience with bankruptcy was with XO, where he ran the company into bankruptcy, then left. He has no experience restructuring a company through the bankruptcy process, so in his experience, bankruptcy means death. Obysmal selected the perfect tool to set up as chairman and CEO.
I will never buy nor drive a Government Motors vehicle.

But that doesn't change the fact that it will ultimately be a major failure, as Goonion Motors won't survive for long with the UAW at the helm and government involvement.

tell whoever got bailed out that they don't have to be responsible and that if/when they screw up, somebody (in this case, us the taxpayers) will back them up. This leads them to take risks and make stupid decisions that they wouldn't make if we actually operated under the consequences of a free market

On the subject of fuel - which automobiles DO run on, last I checked - I've just read some (apparantly) GOOD news from 'our' side, for a change. It appears that the House Repubs have passed a bill pushing for the Keystone Pipeline, along with expanded oil drilling............in direct contrast to Boy Barry's decision, as well as the other idiotic Dems and envirommentalists. I don't know where, or how far, this thing will go, but at least they've made a statement and made a stand - which is saying something for these clowns. It was probably the TEA Party types in the House...............who knows, maybe Bonehead and Co. will try and take them to the woodshed for being too 'uppity'.
But at least it's out there............I'll be interested to see how Boy BlahBlah, Harry the Weasel, and the MSM play this one.

Sweet ride!
Submitted by Tugboat Phil on Fri, 02/17/2012 - 8:49am.
My first was a blue, 67 Chevy II SS, last year before they became Novas. I see ones like it now and I could have one for around $25-$30K. Guess I can still dream. I paid $1700 for that car and my mom thought I'd gotten ripped off. There isn't a price that can be put on the fun I had in that car.
Dan, I can't even DREAM about paying insurance on a Corvette. However, when I was looking for that Chevy Deuce I had, I almost bought two Vettes in one day. The first was an ad car listed for $2400 (this was 1975). It was a 63 split window, red & white. I got to the dealer and it had a flat. I was still interested and when he finally mentioned a price, it was $4500. Oh, the newspaper ad....it must have been a misprint. Right.
Second one was on a used lot. Canary yellow, 72 convertible. It was still more than I wanted to pay, $3100. However, it was really ragged out for only being 3 years old. That was my only involvement with those cars. Never even driven one.

GM plans to freeze, if they would have preferred a standard bankruptcy. With Obama controlling approximately 25% of GM shares, and the UAW union trust funds owning 13 percent of GM stock, GM's salaried employees are between a rock and a hard place.
Meanwhile the GM bailout has taxpayers in the hole by approximately $12 Billion.

I'm surprised there aren't some people among those bond holders who wanted to exact revenge for that. For them to bend over for this one and not feel violated is a bit mind boggling.
Has there been any action on the part of the bond holders at all on this, like some sort of lawsuit or something?

I thought there was at least one bond holder who was going to take legal action. As a recall he was upper middle class and I'm wondering if, having lost something like 50 or 100k he could afford a lawyer. It would be a long and expensive fight.

Idiocy. Companies that are on the verge of dying should be left to die. Otherwise we create a moral hazard. Rewarding mismanagent will mean continued tax-payer bailout until the cows come home.

"REYNOLDS: GM has 12,000 fewer employees than it did the year before restructuring, and has cut back on pay and pension benefits."
That was what allowed the recovery, and the unionists would never have let it happen without obama's bribe, paid with our money. GM was bankrupt due to excessive labor costs, for the most part. A proper bankruptcy/reorganization would have yielded a viable company without ripping off the taxpayers.

Yup this is true and i think it's funny how they label themselves 'The Auto Industry' when we have other auto manufacturers in this country. All I can say is get over yourselves and let Capitalism and Free-Market go about it's business. And for all the employees who are upset at anyone saying they should have let GM file for bankrupsty, you should be more upset with the people in charge that allowed it to get to that point.

Dan Baby admitted he didn't know anything about cars when nobama appointed him and he keeps proving it everyday. Don't kid yourself, if it weren't for Asia and European cars sales GM would still be in the tank. Asia and Europe are far enough away that the government appointed "geniuses" can't screw them up too bad. The Volt is a classic example of why GM went bankrupt in the first place. It was union and management -the bean counters- that drove GM in the ground. Everyone knows or is a person who will never buy a GM or Chrysler because of the bailout.

Feel the Wheel
Kapotasana (Pigeon Pose)
From the transition pose, exhale as you slowly stretch your arms overhead until your palms reach the floor. You may wish to rest your head on the floor and pause. Though the effort may be extreme, try to keep a sense of the circular energy by keeping the chest open and guiding the head and shoulders toward the tail. Breathing steadily (mouth closed, 1:1 ratio between inhalation and exhalation), anchor the pubis and tail to the legs and internally rotate your thighs slightly. Your efforts to refrain from pushing your thighs forward in Camel Pose will pay off now that your quads are stretched to their absolute max.
After your brief rest, exhale and push your arms straight. Walk your hands toward your feet. Rest on your head again, pause, press up to straight arms, and walk the hands in farther, continuing this process until you are holding your feet or heels or until you feel you have reached your edge. With your elbows shoulder-width apart, exhale and follow the circular movement of the backbend to bring your head to your feet and elbows to the floor.
Breathe steadily to help refine the pose. Intelligent support from the legs combined with an expanded and lifted chest is key for maintaining mental clarity and energetic steadiness in this full expression of Pigeon Pose.
To come out, you can place your hands, palms-down, next to your ears, tuck your chin, and relax to the floor. But if possible, exhale, release your grip, and pull yourself up to kneeling with a strong lift of the sternum. Either way, rest in Child's Pose.
Regardless of how far you progress in the sequence, allow time to unwind and cool down. Begin by slowing and deepening your exhalations until your breathing is relaxed and your whole body feels calm, steady, and vibrant.
Once the breath rhythm is restored, do a short series of reclining twists and hip openers such as Jathara Parivartanasana (Revolved Abdomen Pose) and Supta Padangusthasana (Reclining Hand-to-Big-Toe Pose) at about 50 percent of your edge to allow the body to undo any unintended muscle tension. Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward-Facing Dog) or Sirsasana (Headstand) can round out the practice before concluding, of course, with Savasana (Corpse Pose).
I hope that by practicing these poses you have gained insight about sequencing as well as the asanas themselves. Artful vinyasa is much like a walk in the woods: The first step is to get on the path. Whether you stop to work through an obstacle or to savor an experience, each pose is a conscious pause along a trail toward a hardy body and mind.
When considering which asanas to include in this sequence, I chose poses that complement and inform each other for a vinyasa that evolves into a satisfying sum of its parts. Even if the full sequence is out of reach today, recognize the step-by-step process, remembering the concept of vinyasa krama. As you persevere, you'll develop the patience, strength, and maturity to journey toward backbends that are rich and satisfying on every level. In other words, you'll know that you're on the right path.
Devoted to yoga since the early 1970s, Barbara Benagh studied and taught Iyengar Yoga until 1986, when she became drawn to the internal technology of yoga as taught by Angela Farmer and others. Benagh's teaching is grounded in practical asana technique and informed by breath and the subtle body. She has taught in the Boston area and around the world for more than 30 years.

[WARNING: The following contains spoilers from Hemlock Grove's Season 2 finale. Read at your own risk.]
Season 1, Episode 13
The tragic conclusion to the Hemlock Grove killing spree leaves both the Godfrey and Rumancek families devastated, with the final horror yet to come.
Season 1, Episode 12
As Olivia and Chasseur face off at the Mill, Shelley learns the awful truth about her family, and Peter and Roman uncover the killer's identity.
Season 1, Episode 10
A weakened Roman emerges from his coma and reunites with Peter to stop the killer. Hemlock Grove braces itself for another lethal full moon.
Season 1, Episode 9
As a full moon approaches, Letha's parents discover her relationship with Peter. Despite a crisis of faith, Chasseur prepares to capture the killer.
Hemlock Grove might not have the cache of Netflix's other original offerings, but it does have one thing in spades: absurdity.
When the supernatural drama returns for Season 2 this Friday, Peter (Landon Liboiron) and Roman (Bill Skarsgard) are still on the outs while they deal with their personal demons (literally!). As it turns out, Peter's decision to turn on the wrong moon has more repercussions that anyone imagined.
Though summer television isn't as bleak as it once was, we could all use some extra options between network seasons to fulfill our television fix. And since your DVR will be drying up soon, it's time to head to Netflix for some respite from the search for something to watch...
Eli Roth's supernatural thriller Hemlock Grove returns to Netflix for Season 2 on July 11, the company announced Monday.
Based on the novel by Brian McGreevy, the series stars Famke Jannsen, Bill Skarsgard, Landon Liboiron and Dougray Scott as residents of a dilapidated Pennsylvania steel town where murder and other strange happenings occur. Season 2 continues with the town coming to grips with the shocking massacre incurred by one of its deadliest creatures.
It's been one month since Orange is the New Black premiered on Netflix and if you haven't finished yet, you're making a mistake. And don't even get me started on those of you who haven't begun watching.
Unlike Netflix's previous original series, which were self-indulgent (House of Cards), uneven (Arrested Development) and downright bizarre (Hemlock Grove), Orange has inspired a passionate following precisely because it's nothing like its streaming predecessors — or like anything else on TV, for that matter. The summer lull between Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad is such an especially dark place for television that a comedy-drama set in a women's prison immediately became more than just a welcome change of pace; it became an obsession. And Orange is more than worthy of the attention.

Hi, I'd like to make my Qt-based application available for S60 5th edition-based phones. I realized I have S60 5th edition toolchain installed on my PC as a part of Qt SDK:
However I can only add Desktop and Harmattan target in Projects and the only build configuration offered for Symbian target is "Qt 4.7.4 for Symbian Anna".
So can I build the app for S60 5th ed. somehow or do I have to install something more?

Newly hired GM Dave Gettleman is at it again, but this time he's restructured a contract for a player that many of us thought would be an outright cut.
According to a report from Shutdown Corner, FS Haruki Nakamura has agreed to take a pay cut in order to remain on the roster for the 2013 season.
Here are the details of the restructured deal, according to the report:
Originally scheduled to earn $1.3 million in non-guaranteed base salary this season, Nakamura will now earn $815,000 in total cash compensation if he makes the Panthers' 53-man roster. As part of the restructured contract, Nakamura received a $65,000 signing bonus, which is the only portion of the new deal that is guaranteed, and could earn a $35,000 workout bonus this offseason. Nakamura is scheduled to earn $715,000 in base salary with an additional $300,000 in available playing-time incentives.
The new contract lowers Nakamura's cap hit by $517,500 with the trade-off being that the 2014 year in his contract, which saw his $1.8 million base salary reduced to $730,000, will void if Nakamura is on the roster five days after Super Bowl XLVIII, making him eligible for free agency next offseason.
If there is a downside to this restructure, I have yet to find it. This keeps a quality special teams player on the roster for the 2013 season, and it allows Nakamura to impress teams (including the Panthers) so that he could potentially find work starting in 2014, assuming his contract does void (which I'm certain it will).
As always, stay tuned to CSR for any breaking news about additional roster moves that may occur.

Kylee's Fan Club by Gann Fam - about 1 year ago
"This picture was taken on July 20th 2013, at the Turlock CA Fairgrounds. My daughter Kylee, ( 8 years old ) in the center of the photo, was racing for her 4th year in a row in the AMP RACING quad cross at the fair. This year she moved up to the 90cc class, she was a bit nervous so I decided to have shirts made for everybody who was coming to watch her. I ended up ordering about 40 shirts and everyone wore them, and it was awesome!!! Custom Ink was incredible to work with. They made my shirts exactly as I ordered and I received them the exact day I was supposed to. I will definitely be ordering from them again, and I have recommended them to people already!!!! Thank you for making Kylee's day so special!!"

Currently I am doing a project that need to use Qt Components (not the same as Qt Quick Components),
at the beginning I think I can use Smart Install to help me install all the required libraries,
unfortunately, only Qt Components is missing, others (Qt Quick, Qt Quick Components and Qt Mobility) are installed correctly.So, I have to install Qt Components myself.
Note that I have CONFIG += qt-components in my project file.
I don't know whether I have done something wrong or Smart Installer doesn't support,
could anyone advice?

GLOUCESTER — A broken gate valve in a downtown water main this afternoon has forced city offocials to shut down water service along Main Street from Washington to Hancock streets, beginning at 5 and extending to 9 p.m.
Department of Public Works director Mike Hale said this aftrenoon that the problem was found as a part of the larger construction at Tally's Corner, the intersection of Main, Washington and Commercial streets.
Water was also temporarily shut down along Commercial Street, Beach Court and Fort square from about 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. today until water could be rerouted back to the area, Hale said.
He added that work is currently under way to replace and fix the broken valve.
Hale said that valves are commonly replaced, but he could not readily give the exact cost of the part since the cost may vary. While the work on the intersection itself was scheduled, the water shutoff was not.

These are the most perfect boyfriend jeans! The wash and the distressing look even better thN in the picture. The only thing is that these jeans are not baggy in the waist or butt. They fit normally which is totally fine, but if you're looking for a true boyfriend "bag" size up one or two. I ordered a 26, next pair I might get a 38 for some slouch around my waist
This fit takes some getting used to as it sits quite low in the crotch (horrid word, ?but it is what it is) ?but now I am into them I love them. I am pretty short at 4"11 and three quarters but because of the leg taper they roll up really neatly. Def recommend these.?

To begin with, I am in a surprisingly good mood:) Let me just throw that out there. It's because today, the tv world was good to me. Here's why.
You know, I've mentioned before a little bit about the ways we come up with stories. Sometimes they come to us via press releases or phone calls, but oftentimes we (reporters) come up with them ourselves through sources, etc.
Today was a little mix of both. We found out yesterday that EPD would be holding a press conference to show off some stolen goods recently seized during a theft investigation. I sort of claimed the story last night. Now, press releases are great, but you can usually find a much better story if you keep on diggin' a little bit more.
So, this morning I called over to EPD to get some more information about the stolen items. I found out there were TONS of them. That told me there would be lots of video (as opposed to a boring press conference where there is nothing to see). Then, as we were talking, it came up that one of the stolen items was a set of gear belonging to a volunteer firefighter in St. Meinrad.
We always try to include one "real person" in our stories. And what I mean by that is someone who isn't speaking in an "official" capacity. So in addition to talking to authorities at the press conference, I decided to try and find that firefighter. Police couldn't help me since his stuff was found by the Sheriff's Office, so I made a couple of calls on my own. Town Hall in Ferdinand knew where the Fire Chief worked. The secretary at his job gave me his cell phone number. The Fire Chief gave me the firefighter's number. (That's him in the picture.) And, then, everything fell into place!
In an ideal tv world, I would have been able to get video of the firefighter coming and retrieving his gear. That's a lot to ask, though, with short notice. I was plenty happy to drive to St. Meinrad and interview him and the Chief. That drive took an extra 2 hours or so of the day, but I think it really helped to personalize the story. At least, that's what I was going for:)
Anyway, that's just a little run-through of how my story was put together today. One of those times when just about all of the stars aligned. Man, I love those days!
Even better, tomorrow is Friday. Even better than that, I have next Tuesday-Friday off! Sorry, can't help but celebrate it a little bit. Have to burn those vacation days up before the end of the year!!
Until next time,
1115 Mt. Auburn Road

Measure D opponents hang tough in cash battle

I want a No on D sign on my lawn and happy to
contribute. But how?
on Oct 25, 2013 at 10:43 am
I am in favor of senior housing. However I am opposed to Measure D because it is another example of the city using PC zoning to help a developer at the expense of the neighborhood. That is why so many in Green Acres II, Barron Park, and across all of Palo Alto are against Measure D. The fact that the proponents are using city funds to promote their case just makes it more aggravating.

On St. Patrick's Day, people become Irish for the day. On Saturday, people will become Serbian for the day.
Saints Peter & Paul church is celebrating the 20th anniversary of their Serb Fest tomorrow. They began preparations on all of the delicious homemade ethnic foods today.
They will have a Chicago band playing Serbian tunes, games and rides for the kids. There's no admission and parking is a donation to the food bank.
The church is celebrating it's 102nd anniversary.
The long standing tradition is a fundraiser for the church and that's not all.
Christiaan Corthier, in charge of communications for Serb Festival said, "For people in the Michiana area to learn about our heritage, whether it's tasting our food, doing an ethnic dance or even going up to the church, because we offer church tours because our churches are a little bit different. It's like stepping back in time and when step into one of our churches."
Serb fest is Saturday from 4:00 pm to 11:00 pm and is at the Sts. Peter& Paul banquet hall and picnic grounds on Keria Trail in South Bend.

In response to the groundswell of encouragement from around the state, I have announced my candidacy for the office of Governor of Wyoming.
The recent disregard for the Wyoming voters shown by our Legislature and Governor cannot be ignored. The unwanted, unneeded interference of the Federal Government in education, in the management and production of our natural resources, and in the general affairs of Wyoming must be diminished.
Washington must not be allowed to "dictate" to Wyoming how we manage our transportation systems or how we provide health care.
I'm running because I care about our kids and I care about our grandkids. I'm running because there is so much we can do to create a "freedom zone" in our great state – and we're not doing it!
The Office of Governor is not an entitlement; rather, the Office must be earned. And I plan to earn your vote. Over the coming months, I intend to offer a sensible contrast to the choices we currently have. I plan to offer a detailed vision of where and how I will lead this state.

Power efficient because WhiteMagic automatically adjusts the brightness of the screen to surrounding light – when the light is not so strong, Sony Xperia P uses less battery power.
Make sure you always get the right shot with your phone's fast capture 8 megapixel camera. Just over a second from sleep to snap, and just one second between shots.
And thanks to the Exmor R™ for mobile image sensor you capture stunning pictures, even in low light. Want to enjoy your photos on a bigger screen? A single swipe of the display, and you're ready to share your pics on your TV, tablet or laptop.
