Remove the Roundhegians Telecommunications Mast
Please help local residents to get rid of a telecommunications mast and base station situated on Roundhegians rugby ground adjacent to the gardens of Chelwood Ave. Not only is it an eyesore but a potential health risk. The mast was erected without consultation or any concern for local residents opinion. We do not want this on our doorstep. Please show your support to help us lobby Leeds City council to get it removed. Thankyou

Sony may not have a permanent price cut coming on the PlayStation 3, but Amazon has a nifty one-day sale going on for the popular Blu-ray player ... er ... gaming console.
The mega online retailer has the PS3 as its gold box special for today, June 11, marked down fifty bucks to $349.99.
Since it's release, it's been well-argued that the Sony machine is the best Blu-ray player going, as a side note to the gaming and media streaming capabilities.
At $399 regularly priced, it's still tough for some to pull the trigger on it ... but hey, you can use that extra $50 saved today to get your video game or Blu-ray disc collection going, right?
Or you can use it toward a $39 PlayOn software purchase and get some Netflix and other web videos to stream to the device.

Health experts say the extension of current health care plans that would otherwise have been canceled under the Affordable Care Act takes some pressure off consumers, and gives people time to figure out what is best for them.
Mary Elizabeth Marr is the CEO of the AIDS Action Coalition in Huntsville. The coalition has been given one of the grants to have a 'navigator' on-site for people who are looking for insurance or wanting to change their current plan.
Now that the President has said there is a possible fix for people whose insurance plans were canceled due to the Affordable Care Act, Marr said it gives people the chance to take the time to look and see what they want to change.
"It still behooves everybody to go on the marketplace and get signed up with another plan, but their plan is not going to end on Dec. 31," said Marr. "It's not the pressure of needing to do something today. We were looking at a December 15th deadline in order to get people signed up by January 1st. So there's a little bit of breathing room. The market place website is working much better than it was two weeks ago and we are getting people through the system."
President Obama said his fix won't solve every problem for every person, but it will help a lot of people. Help that Marr said is needed.
"Everyone wants to just throw it away and that's not what we need to do we need to keep working on the problem because it is a problem that people don't have insurance," she said.
The President said there are currently 40 million Americans without health insurance. Marr said it's unknown if the enrollment period will be impacted by the year extension. Americans currently have until March 31st to sign up for a plan, but they have to pay for a plan by December 15th for coverage to start January 1st.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama had 97,000 individual customers whose policies didn't meet the requirements of the new law and were being moved to new policies.
In regards to the President's Thursday announcement regarding the deadline extension, Blue Cross Blue Shield said:
We are reviewing the President's statement and evaluating its impact on our requirements for implementing the ACA.

Kid Cruz notched his fourth stakes win and first in a graded event on Saturday's Stars & Stripes Day at Belmont Park, coming from off the pace to reel in entrymate Captain Serious in the final yards and win the 97th running of the Grade 3, $200,000 Dwyer by three-quarters of a length.
With Irad Ortiz, Jr. in the irons, Kid Cruz was content to run in fourth as Captain Serious set pressured fractions of 23.43 and 46.57 seconds. Shaking off Tiz Dark on the turn, Captain Serious swung into the lane with a two-length advantage and seemingly had the race in hand until Ortiz angled Kid Cruz to the outside and powered past in the shadow of the wire.
Kid Cruz's winning time for the 1 1/16 miles was 1:41.12.
"He's a little lazy, but he was closer [to the pace] the whole way," said Ortiz, who was aboard for Kid Cruz's victory last month in the Easy Goer on Belmont Stakes Day. "I knew he was going to give me a kick at the end."
Owned by Vina Del Mar Thoroughbreds and Black Swan Stable, Kid Cruz lifted his record to 4-1-0 from six starts as a 3-year-old, including victories in the Private Terms at Laurel Park, the Federico Tesio at Pimlico Race Course and the Easy Goer. Claimed for $50,000 by Vina del Mar last November from Black Swan Stable, which later bought back a share of the Lemon Drop Kid colt, Kid Cruz has now earned $368,375.
The entry returned $3.40 as the 3-5 choice.
"This horse seems to be getting better all the time - perfecting his trade," said trainer Linda Rice of Kid Cruz, who is named after New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz. "We've got Saratoga coming up, and I'm very excited about that. Obviously he's got to meet each goal, and today was a big one. These are tough races at Belmont Park and he got through unscathed. I think he qualifies to go to Saratoga and hopefully point for the Jim Dandy [July 26] and the Travers [August 23]."
Captain Serious, whose three-race undefeated streak facing New York-breds came to an end in his first start beyond seven furlongs, was 4 ½ lengths clear of Ulanbator.
"He certainly didn't get any breaks on the pace; it was a very legitimate pace," said Mike Hushion, who trains Captain Serious for Barry Schwartz. "We'll learn what we can from it and move forward."
Spot checked in fourth, with Tiz Dark and Gaining Ground completing the order of finish.

(WMC-TV) - There's a dirty secret inside an east Memphis apartment complex. Residents there recently asked the Action News 5 investigators to expose the shocking sight inside a unit there.Odell Dumas, 83, opened the unlocked door to the apartment next to his - an apartment filled with trash. What's even more shocking, neighbors said, is that until recently, someone lived there."I haven't seen this guy for about three months," one neighbor said.The contents of the apartment exhibit the classic signs of a hoarder. There are mountains of collected items that most people would have thrown out, including a trail of empty frozen entrée containers and boxes of tissues stacked orderly from ceiling to floor.The museum of trash has produced so many roaches that someone posted a warning about the unit at the complex's mail center."They're just in every room," Dumas said. "In the bedroom they get all over my clothes. "You know you've got to watch when you go out make sure you don't got a roach on ya.I went to church and had a roach on me the other day.The back door of the apartment is jammed shut by trash."You can look in the window," Dumas said. "Look in here, it will shock you."In the kitchen is a collection of empty dishwashing soap containers. Meanwhile, the bathroom floor is a sea of trash, and the toilet and sink are in deplorable shape.The manager of the complex, who did not want to be interviewed on camera, has been unable to track down the dirty dweller. Legally, he said, management can't go inside because the has been paid on time every month. "If he's keeping up the rent, it don't matter, he's causing a whole lot of nuisances here," Dumas said.Apartment management reported the mess to the Shelby County Health Department, and inspectors posted a notice asking the renter to clean up and get in touch with them.Neighbors and maintenance workers hope that solves the problem. In the meantime, Odell Dumas has no choice but to close the door on the apartment next door, and return to his home where he has lived for 41 years. The Shelby County Health Department will inspect vacant and abandoned property to prevent pests from breeding. You can report a problem to their Environmental Health Services Division by calling 901 544-7582.For more information, click here. http://www.shelbycountytn.gov/index.aspx?NID=599

Record: 37 – 35 – 10
Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Jets soar over Flames
Second straight five-goal game gives Maurice a 2-0 record
CALGARY -- Paul Maurice is still undefeated this morning as head coach of the Winnipeg Jets.
The Jets won their second game in a row here Thursday night since Maurice took over from Claude Noel behind the Jets bench last Sunday, dumping the hapless Calgary Flames 5-2.
Add last night's victory to an equally dominating 5-1 win over the Phoenix Coyotes in Maurice's debut Monday at the MTS Centre and a Jets team that has struggled all season long to string consecutive wins together suddenly has two in a row to improve to 21-23-5.
Yes, it bears noting, both wins came against struggling opponents. Phoenix had lost four out of five coming into Winnipeg and looked every bit on Monday like a team down on its luck. And with the loss to the Jets, the Flames set a new franchise record for futility at home, losing their seventh straight at the Pengrowth Saddledome in an unspeakable run that has seen them outscored by a cumulative 22-4.
Still, if the primary motivation for relieving Noel of his duties was because he was unable to extract consistently winning performances from this Jets team -- and it was -- and the earliest returns thus far would suggest the Jets braintrust might be on to something.
"We did a good job using our speed and I think that's been the key for us the last couple games," said Jets forward Blake Wheeler, who was one of six Jets who had two-point nights.
"But it's two good games. I don't think we can get ahead of ourselves. We have a long ways to go. We're back to playing the way we want to be playing. But the key now is to stay with it."
Buff still shining
With a first period goal that put the Jets up 2-0, Dustin Byfuglien now has one goal and three assists in his last three games since moving up to wing and looks increasingly comfortable with his new role as the ultimate power forward.
While Byfuglien continues to see time on the blue-line as a forward, he's spending most of his time lately playing wing on a line with Olli Jokinen and Devin Setoguchi and it seems unlikely that will change anytime soon.
Maurice was gushing with his praise when asked prior to last night's game for his thoughts on Byfuglien playing a hybrid role for the Jets.
"He's a dominant force up front and he's a dominant force on the blue line. From what I've seen, he does things that other coaches would never be able to teach....And if you can't teach it, you can't defend against it."
The Kid is all right
With Winnipeg's third goal of the game in the second period last night and an assist on Jacob Trouba's third-period marker, rookie Jets forward Mark Scheifele now has 16 points in his last 17 games.
Scheifele has been playing of late on a line with Wheeler and Chris Thorburn and the line seems to have developed some quick chemistry. Wheeler's goal-mouth pass that set up Scheifele's goal was a thing of beauty and the normally workmanlike Thorburn was all over the score-sheet with a pair of assists.
"They're smart players," Scheifele said of his linemates. "They're big, they move the puck well and we're getting more used to each other. I think it's a big thing."
Olli Jokinen Right at Home
While the Jets forward spent the week downplaying his return to an arena where he spent the better part of four seasons with the Flames, Jokinen certainly played like he was enjoying the experience.
Jokinen set up Byfuglien for Winnipeg's second goal of the game midway through the first period and then scored one of his own on a knuckle-puck at 17:31 of the second period to put the game out of reach at 4-0.
In addition to Jokinen, Thorburn, Scheifele and Wheeler, other Jets players with two-point nights were Andrew Ladd, who had two assissts, and Bryan Little, who had a goal and an assist.

Silver Sailfish Derby teams release 145 sailsSunday, January 11th, 2009
The 72nd Annual Silver Sailfish Derby ended Saturday with a total of 145 releases posted over three days by 35 boats.
That's relatively slow fishing compared to some recent previous years but close to the long-term historical average per-boat catch for the Derby.
Captain Frank Gibbs and his crew on the 63-foot Bertram Certifiable released 12 sails to win top boat in the sailfish release tournament, founded by the West Palm Beach Fishing Club in 1935.

Sampled June 2011
Pours almost dead flat, with a deeply concentrated, brown body. The beer smells of Port Wine, nutty Sherry (though not overly oxidized as Sherry usually is). The beer is quite fruit laden in the nose with notes of raisins, prunes and concentrated figs playing quite a prominent role. There is perhaps a hint of alcohol towards the finish and there is also a soft mustiness to this beer that reminds me of a damp, limestone cave, or perhaps a slightly damp cellar. The oxidation and fruit character combine to form an almost umami like concentrated, oxidized-caramelized malt character here in the aroma; despite being flat the nose is actually quite complex, rich and enticing.
Flat feeling of course as it hits the tongue, and this makes the beer seem a touch lighter than it would otherwise be. There is a rich, nutty character to the finish that really lingers along with ample Sherry notes. The nuttiness in the finish gets quite toasted at times and there also seems to be a slight metallic note that I sometimes get from the skins that are found on some nuts. The middle has some viscous heft to it (this beer would feel more rich if it had some carbonation to it), this lingers for a bit on the palate in the finish, but then seems to disappear. The rich fruitiness from the aroma isn't quite here in the flavor, though there are some slight dark fruit notes that come through.
This beer is really reminiscent of a Port or Sherry, especially due to being completely still. It doesn't have the richness in the flavor to pull that likeness off though; the body isn't viscous enough, nor is there enough fruit character to round out the complexity. The aroma, though, does have the proper balance and intrigue to be quite nice; too bad the rest of the beer didn't live up to this. I wonder why this beer is flat, the synthetic cork was a pain to remove and I wonder if a synthetic cork, when compared to the real thing, is just quit inferior when it comes to retaining carbonation. If this is the case, then a big, rich beer like this should not be packaged with synthetic corks.

I had to open one of these on Christmas. It poured a think black with dark brown tints. It didn't have any head at all and looks pretty thin. The smell is only two fold, it smells like a stout with chocolate. It doesn't resemble a Belgian dark whatsoever. The taste is pretty blase for the style. Again it resembles a stout, a coffee stout with chocolate. The mouthfeel is far too light for my liking. This beer is just ok. It doesn't impress me in any form.

3.45/5 rDev -11.8%
Shared by Chico1985, took a three man army to remove the synthetic cork, no pop once we finally got it.
A- Murky dark brown with no head but a strange foamy ring forming late. Some suds but no lace in sight. Chunky yeast throughout the beer.
S- Dark brown old ale sugar with a molasses feel. Cocoa is big with nutmeg and roast notes. Some alcohol.
T- Very nice cocoa nib flavor and roast spice (nutmeg). Dark brown sugar/molasses and roast malt. Nothing for hops. Orange peel for sure. No Belgian notes really.
MF- Pure water, flat as can be and the most watery feel possible. 11% is impressive here. Some heat but too much water feel.
DB- Very, very strange beer. The mouthfeel is very distracting but the taste is pretty good. Cocoa is the best part about this.

3.48/5 rDev -11%
Found a couple of this vintage on clearance for $5 a few months ago. Damn rubber cork was nearly impossible to extract, when we finally got it out it barely popped.
Pours about black, small fizzy beige head quickly turns to a ring. Thick floaties very obvious. Age is probably to blame but this wasn't very appealing looking.
Cocoa, caramel, and orange/coriander in the scent. Pleasant but faint.
Huge milk chocolate/cocoa that lingers for a long time. The orange peel and coriander is definitely there but faint. Much of the spice and hops listed in the ingredients have seemingly disappeared.
EXTREMELY light for 11%, this thing literally drinks like watery chocolate milk. Booze is barely there, pretty low carbonation.
The chocolate taste is great in this beer, but I gotta ask, where's the Belgian in this? A 11% BSDA that drinks like a 5% porter. Not sure if aging is complimentary to this beer.

750 Cork And Caged Bottle Into A Snifter
A- Pours a really dark murky brown that appears pretty much pitch black. Absolutely no head on this sucker at all, just a few bubbles on the edge that pop pretty quickly.
S- Really nice dark malts with a sweet milk chocolate not that's very inviting. Definitely a slight bit of alcohol in there but not to bad. Not to much spice left though, just straight malts and cocoa.
T- Much like the smell, really nice darker roasted malts with a good amount of sweet milk chocolate in the finish. Definitely has a nice tart Belgian sourness to it from the yeast and a slight bit of hops and spice that comes out with it. Not as much alcohol as I would predict, barely noticeable and really smooth.
M- Full bodied with pretty much no carbonation and a nice tart sour like finish that is only a little bit dry.

Bottle at Volo's. Chocolate black with a little white head. Complex, the taste is mostly Belgian chocolate, with alcohol in the finish. Understated hops, sugar, hint or orange. A tad of cherry mid-sip, and other spice: cinammon. Above average mouthfeel. Good drinkability,

A 750 ML bottle poured into a tulip. 23/10/14 best before date
Cork and Caged.
A-- Poured a very syrupy dark brown with a lot of ruby in it. In the glass it was a coke syrup color with traces of dark ruby on the bottom of the glass. Did not think there was a head until the 300 ML mark, then a light kakhi colored head erupted and became one finger, finally settling to just light brown film that left a lot of lacing. Very little visible carbonation.
S-- Very spicy and sweet. Nutmeg, Coriander, Cinnamon, Orange peel, coffee, and some sweet chocolate. Almost Christmas in a nutshell. No noticeable alcohol smell with this.
T-- Spicy, sweet and syrupy. All the above mentioned flavors in the smell are in the taste but almost ramped up. Almost reminds me of the Chouffe N'Ice with the taste. There is a slight bit of an alcohol burn with this.
M-- Has a slight Pine or candy cane hop feel at the end. It helps cut through the sweetness and leave a fresh feel that pine or peppermint would with a candy cane. A bit syrupy though. Low carbonation and medium feel.
D-- I love winter seasonal beers, so this should be up my alley. it is good because it carries the smells and feel of winter but it is a little too sweet. Even though the pine hop feel really works well with it. Get a little bit of the 11% ABV but not a whole lot. Pretty well hidden, except in a few spots. Something about this I like though and would very much buy and drink again. I would think of cellaring this longer and see if the sweetness does drop off more. Could easily become a Christmas staple for me.

Bottle shared at Woodshop 5.0. Pours very dark brown with visible sediment and a light tan small head. Very fruity aroma as well as some coffee-like stout notes (the cocoa is very evident, unlike the hops). Some stone fruit ester notes and even some berries. Flavor is peachy with caramel, cocoa, ginger, and a dry, light, bitter finish.

Tasted from bottle.
Appearance - Pours an opaque extremely dark brown with very little head.
Smell - Dark malt with a distinctive alcohol burn. The cocoa and coriander come through nicely. There are also aromas of vanilla and cinnamon that I usually associate with oak treatment.
Taste - The front of the palate is sweet. On the mid-palate, the coriander, cinnamon and vanilla come through, as do the hops. On the back of the palate the bitter orange peel, dark chocolate, coffee and hops are dominant.
Mouthfeel - On the palate, this beer is absolutely perfect. The carbonation is mild but there. The beer affects every area of the palate, not to mention, the finish lasts a very long time.
Drinkability - My only complaint about this beer is that the alcohol is a little out of balance. Other than that, it is very enjoyable. There is a high level of complexity, and the finish is very long, not to mention, there is still plenty of aging potential.

A: near opaque, lacing around side of glass and a bit in middle but not much else
S: nice malt with cocoa undertones
T: nice balance of malt and cocoa, not overly bitter, good drinking beer overall and something different with cocoa nibs, not a huge amount of complexity but that's OK in this time of over-the-top beers
M/D: easy drinking, a bit thin

This ale has a lightly spiced with flavours of orange peel, coriander,cinnamon,and hints of cocoa. Very sweet aroma, again, a sweet taste, almost a watered down version of a Russian Imperial Stout. Aftertaste of orange peel and hops. Just a different beer, this is, and, I can't detect that it is 11% ABV. As you can tell by this review, I'm just as confused as you, I don't dig orange peel with my beer, so I'll have to let others decide. May need to retaste this one.

c&c bottle into la fin tulip
an odd, and not particularly good bsda. the appearance is good, but looks more like a stout with that full medium brown head, dark brown body. the taste is odd, not much belgian about it to me except for the lack of bite from the booze; the concealment of the alcohol is quite good. the taste misses the mark to my palate, not enough depth of body and an awkward sweetness. feel is quite thin and lacks big carbonation.

Ah... its brewed with cocoa. That explains a thing or two.
Pours a rich dark brown with a tan head that soon dropped to a thin film and then nothing. Sweet, spicy aroma, with strong chocolate notes and a lot of sweet malt. Large dusty cocoa powder flavour throughout, mixed in with a pleasant fruitiness, and some citrus. Nice spices compliment the chocolate, with cinamon and coriander coming to the fore. Medium body with a restrained carbonation.
A nicely done festive brew. Nothing too exceptional for the style, but very fun and appropriate for this time of the year. The alcohol isn't apparent and I really like the drinkability of this one.

A: VERY dark brown appearance, coffee head.
S: Dark fruits (raisins/plums), chocolate, alcohol
T: Chocolately coffee flavors, dark fruits, dark caramel malts, (the expected) Christmas spices; alcohol is present in aftertaste, but not much of a prob for me
M: Fine moutfeel
D: Goes down easy for me, tho the alcohol aftertaste might stop some
I just had Nøgne Ø Winter Ale a few days ago. This is definitely somewhat similar, though perhaps a bit lighter and drinkability a bit higher (taking the ABV into consideration).

Published in The Athens Observer, p. 6 (April 21-27, 1994).
Author: Donald E. Wilkes, Jr., Professor of Law, University of Georgia School of Law.
The most famous maritime disaster in history was the sinking of the Titanic. On its maiden voyage the "unsinkable" ocean liner collided with an iceberg and then, within three hours, plunged to the bottom of the North Atlantic Ocean in the early morning hours of April 15, 1912, with the loss of over 1,500 lives. The sinking of the Titanic was not, however, the worst disaster in maritime history. The Dona Paz, a Philippine ferryboat, collided with an oil tanker on Dec. 20, 1978, with an estimated loss of between 2,000 and 3,000 lives. The worst maritime disaster of all time occurred during World War II. On Jan. 30, 1945 the Wilhelm Gustloff, a German passenger liner overflowing with German civilians fleeing the advancing Red Army, was torpedoed by a Russian submarine in the Baltic Ocean. Over 8,000 persons died.
Hardly anyone remembers the Dona Paz or the Wilhelm Gustloff, but almost everyone knows about the Titanic. However, few know that four Georgians--three men and a woman--were aboard the doomed Titanic, and that the three men died in the catastrophe. The oldest of the men was a 67-year old philanthropist who many years earlier had lived in Georgia for almost ten years. The second man was a 46-year old army major who was a confidential advisor to and close personal friend of two presidents. The third man, who had celebrated his 37th birthday in a fashionable London restaurant only six days earlier, was a noted writer who specialized in detective stories. The only Georgian to survive was the 36-year old wife of the detective story writer. Isn't it therefore time to tell the story of Isidor Straus, Archibald Butt, and Jacques and May Futrelle--the four Georgians on the Titanic?
Isidor Straus was born in Rhenish Bavaria in 1845. At the time of his death he had for many years been a resident of New York City. Nonetheless, he may properly be regarded also as a Georgian, or at least an ex-Georgian, since he lived here for nearly a decade and received his formal education here. From 1854, the year he immigrated to the United States, until 1863, Straus lived in Talbotton, in Talbot County, Georgia, where he was educated at the Collingsworth Institute, a tiny private, religious school for boys. Straus, his parents, his sister, and his two younger brothers lived in a log house. Nine months of the year Straus and his brothers went barefooted, for reasons, it is said, of comfort and economy. In 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, Straus and his family moved to Columbus, in Muscogee County, where the 18-year old Isidor lived for a short time before leaving that same year for Europe with another Georgian on a private venture to purchase a blockade-running steamboat.
The venture failed, and young Straus spent the next two years working in Liverpool and traveling around Europe, learning how to run a business and how to do bookkeeping. When the Civil War ended in 1865, Straus joined his family in New York City and with his father and brothers opened a wholesale crockery business. In 1874 the Strauses opened silverware, glass, and china departments at Macy's Department Store, and in 1888 they purchased a controlling interest in Macy's. From 1888 until 1912 he was one of the partners who owned Macy's. By the time of his death, Isidor Straus had become a very wealthy man and one of the world's best-known philanthropists, devoting his time to charitable and humanitarian causes.
The tale of how Isidor Straus and his wife of many years, Ida, bravely faced death has been told many times before, and has become part of the legend of the Titanic. After the ship struck the iceberg, Straus and Ida, along with Ida's maid, approached a lifeboat. The maid got into the lifeboat; Mr. Straus refused to enter the lifeboat until all the women and children were safe; and Mrs. Straus refused to enter the boat without her husband. Mrs. Straus did remove her expensive fur coat and place it around the shoulders of her maid, saying: "Keep warm. I won't be needing it." When a ship's officer urged her to enter the lifeboat, Mrs. Straus, who wore her hair the old-fashioned up-swept way, declined, saying: "No, we are too old; we will die together. I will not leave my husband." To her husband she said: "We have been living together for many years. Where you go, I go." When the Strauses were last seen they were standing on the deck of the ship, and Mrs. Straus was waving her handkerchief in farewell to the persons departing in a lifeboat.
The body of Isidor Straus, unlike the bodies of Archie
Butt and Jacques Futrelle, was recovered from the sea. The body of
Ida Straus was never recovered. Today there is a memorial fountain
dedicated to Isidor and Ida Straus. Erected with private donations,
the fountain is located at Broadway and West 106th Street in New York City.

Fans to decide Dragons' logo
2:12pm Thursday 1st May 2014 in Dragons By Chris Kirwan
NEWPORT Gwent Dragons are giving their fans the opportunity to choose a new crest.
This evening the Rodney Parade region will open a web vote that will run until 5pm on Tuesday to decide the logo for next season.
The options are being kept under wraps until the site goes live but the region are making no changes to their name and the current tail design will remain in some form.
The alterations will be to the typeface and the emphasis – one logo will focus on Dragons, another on Newport and there will be a third hybrid option.
"It's a brand refresh in that it's not going to be massively different but it will set the tone for the direction that we are going next season," said commercial and marketing consultant Ben Jeffreys.
The winning crest will be announced next Thursday and details of season tickets will be announced the following day with leaflets handed out at the final game on the season against Treviso on Saturday, May 10.

Josef Svoboda, considered by some to be one of the most influential scenic designers of the 20th century, died April 8 of natural causes. He was 81.
A native of Czechoslovakia, he trained as an architect, then became principal designer at the Czech National Theatre in 1948, a position he held for more than 30 years. He became internationally known in 1958, when he and director Alfred Radok created two multimedia productions, Polyekran and Laterna Magika for the Brussels Worlds Fair. These shows combined live actors and filmed projections, a technique that he continued to explore in the following years. Among his more than 700 credits are Insect Comedy (Czech National Theatre, 1946); Rusalka (Teatro Le Fenice, Venice, 1958); La Sonambula (National Ballet, Amsterdam, 1964); The Storm (National Theatre, London, 1966), Pelleas and Melisande (Royal Opera House, London, 1969); Idomeneo (State Opera, Vienna, 1971); Carmen (Metropolitan Opera, New York, 1972); The Firebird (Royal Theatre, Copenhagen, 1972); I Vespri Siliciani (Metropolitan Opera, 1974); Jumpers (Kennedy Center, 1974); Tristan und Isolde (Festival Theatre, Bayreuth, 1974); Mahagonny (Grand Theatre, Geneva, 1975; Queen of Spades (National Arts Center, Ottawa, 1976); Faust (State Opera, Berlin, 1977); The Bartered Bride (Metropolitan Opera, 1978); Don Carlos (Zurich Opera, 1979); The Dream Play (State University, Albany, NY, 1980); Josefs Legende (La Scala, Milan, 1981); Queen of Spades (Houston Grand Opera, 1982); Blue Angel (New York City Opera, 1985). He left the Czech National Theatre in 1992. Earlier, in 1973, he became artistic director of the Laterna Magika Theatre; one of its productions, Magic Circus, has been performed 5,000 times.
Svoboda chose to describe himself as a sceneographer rather than a designer, reflecting his holistic, architectural, non-naturalistic approach to design. According to Theatrical Designers: An International Biographical Dictionary, edited by Thomas J. Mikotowicz, "Svoboda's opera productions evidence his ingenious use of technology, as well as his use of all manner of modern materials, such as plastics, hyrdraulics, and lasers. In Tristan und Isolde, performed in Wiesbaden in 1967, Svoboda created one of his best-known effects, the three-dimensional `pillar of light' with an aerosol mixture through which shone low-voltage luminaires. In Richard Wagner's The Ring Cycle, performed in London between the years 1974 and 1976, the central unit was a platform that raised, lowered, tilted, and transformed into stairs that leveled no matter at what pitch the platform was. In addition, its underside had a large mirror to reflect performers who were below stage level."
His many honors and awards include honorary doctorates from the Royal College of Arts in London, Denison and Western Michigan Universities in the US, and awards from USITT and International Theatre Institute. He was also made a Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters in Paris in 1976, and received the French Legion of Honor in 1993. According to Variety, American designer Ming Cho Lee, at the last Prague Quadrennial, mentioned Svoboda's work as an inventor, including the Svoboda Ramp, a low-voltage lighting ramp.
Svoboda's casket was displayed in the lobby of the Czech National Theatre, in Prague, on April 15.

Testing for TCE vapors has been completed in more than 2/3 of the homes and buildings in the Como neighborhood study area.
Roughly 200 homes in the Como neighborhood of Minneapolis are being tested for trichloroethylene (TCE) to see if vapors linked to industrial solvents dumped by General Mills are seeping into homes.
- 143 homes have been sampled through Jan. 17
- 92 homes have been found to have TCE levels above the "very protective" screening level set by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (those homes have been offered vapor ventilation systems)
- 43 ventilation systems have been installed
- 50 homes have been found to be below the TCE screening threshold
- 37 homes tested below 2 micrograms per cubic meter of air – a level below which no further testing in considered necessary by MPCA and state health department standards
- 13 homes tested in the 2 to 20 microgram range and will be retested
General Mills used TCE between the 1940s and 1960s, dumping it into a pool on site as was standard at the time. The chemicals polluted the groundwater, and the company spent 25 years treating two contaminated aquifers beneath the Como neighborhood. The water treatment efforts were halted in 2010.
General Mills has offered to cover the cost of testing and installation of any required ventilation system, with the equipment costing roughly $2,000 per home.

- Name:
- Walker (Texas Ranger)
- Specialty:
- Writing
- Favourite Genre:
- Harry Potter
- Roleplay Experience:
- 10+ years. You know, when I was younger it wasn't really considered "role playing" it was just "playing pretend." So, yeah, for like my entire life I've been "role playing" and to be honest - it was more like LARPing when I was a kid. So I LARPed when I was kid. How awesome is that?
[font=georgia,serif]'cos the eyes of the ranger are upon you[/font]

- Staffing Experience:
- 6+ years. This one I'm not positive on. It all kind of blurs together when you staff with arsemuffins and immature people. (Minus the D staff, of course) But hey! I still have the experience under my belt.
So, first things first: I'm not an actual Texas Ranger. I know; what a gyp, right? What kind of BS is this? Well, I like being Chuck Norris and while I'm fully aware that he is going to come and kick my fine heiny when he finds out I'm impersonating him on the interwebz - I'm totally willing to take that butt-whooping in order to be known as Walker Texas Ranger for a bit longer. No, the real me is someone quite sad. I'm a twenty year old (almost twenty one) university drop out who is working full time and still lives with her parents. I've also retreated so far into the world of roleplaying that it's hard for me to branch out and make friends in real life. So, you'll probably see me around here - a lot.

Moving on from the heavier things I just mentioned, let's talk about the RP stuff that I do. I started out on an HP site known as "HP Realm" on a board software we all know and loath - Conforums. It's actually still there if you care to Google it, although it is quite dead - so I wouldn't go looking for RPing. Anyway, I moved onto a bit more of an advanced HP site known as "Four Houses" which is also, quite dead. I stayed there for about five or so year, staffed for four of them, and then moved out of the HP genre into a troubled teen board based on the show "Higher Ground." I stayed on that site for about a year, and then found the D - which has been a wealth of knowledge and wonderfulness. SO! From here I've joined lots of sites, staffed many, worked as a mod here for a bit before stepping down for personal reasons.

Currently, I'm working on three sites - two of which I don't have as much muse for as I do the third. That's okay, though, I always need something to distract me because without distractions - my mind goes a bit crazy.

As for graphics, I don't think I'm awesome at them - but I do enjoy doing them and I enjoy learning new techniques. I like doing tutorials and exploring, but rarely do I fill requests. Maybe that's something I will push myself to do - fill requests. Okay, anyway. I also dabble in coding and skinning. Though my confidences do not extent past writing.

Anyway! I think that's it for me... if you want to know more, just talk to me - I swear I don't bite. :]

One day whilst searching Google I stumbled across a site called The Language Key, a monthly self-study business English magazine and language training centre in Hong Kong.
When I browsed through the site I stumbled across a review of UsingEnglish.com dating from April 2003. After emailing the editor (Chris Durcan), he sent me a copy of it, and I was pleasantly surprised!

As most Cincy Jungle fans learned yesterday, the Raiders on April 1st found a NFL trading partner for Carson Palmer. Are some of you suspiciously feeling a little skeptical concerning this story?...
Jim Trotter of SI interviewed Carson Palmer concerning his 2011 season. Trotter started out by asking if Palmer had been ready to retire before the start of last season. "I don't think so. I don't...
Watch the video, I agree with his take on Palmer 100%
I don't get to listen to the Bengals Line when it is live, so I catch it during the week at work. Listening to hour three (labelled as "Lance and Lap take your calls on the game and who is more at fault, Carson or Bratkowski?"), the early part is Lapham giving a good go at TO and Chad for being marketeers instead of football players and then for Chad for being the (my paraphrase) "least disciplined route runner" over his career. Interesting stuff.

In its petitions for West Virginia and Virginia approval to transfer parts of the Amos and Mitchell coal-fired power stations from Ohio subsidiaries to Appalachian Power, AEP announced May 1 that federal regulators have no objection.
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approved transfer to Appalachian Power of AEP Ohio's two-thirds ownership, or 867 megawatts, in the John Amos plant and half of its ownership of the 1,600-MW generating capacity of Mitchell Plant, the company said in a media release.
Appalachian Power filed in December with the Public Service Commission of West Virginia seeking approval to purchase those parts of the Amos and Mitchell power plants from AEP Ohio.
The purpose of the proposed generation transfer, the company said, is to meet the demand of its ratepayers when AEP's existing power pool — in which subsidiaries buy and sell power among themselves — is dissolved in January 2014.
The proposed purchase, amounting to perhaps $1.4 billion, would increase Appalachian Power's generation capacity by 1.6 gigawatts.
A similar plan filed with the commission in November by FirstEnergy that would transfer coal-fired assets from an Ohio subsidiary to Mon Power also has the go-ahead from FERC.
The federal agency was not expected to stand in the way of these transactions because they will not change the parent companies' market positions.
AEP's and FirstEnergy's Ohio subsidiaries are undergoing electricity market deregulation; critics of these proposals note that transfer of coal-fired assets subject to increasing environmental regulation to West Virginia's regulated market would shield them from competition with cheaper natural gas-fired generation and would guarantee the utilities a return on their investments at the expense of ratepayers.
Intervenors in both cases say alternative fuels and energy efficiency have not been adequately considered and point out that utilities in other states are diversifying their generation portfolios to hedge their dependence on coal.
Because Appalachian Power also serves Virginia customers, AEP will need approval not only of the Public Service Commission of West Virginia but also the Virginia State Corporation Commission.
Evidentiary hearings are scheduled in both cases in the coming months; follow docket number 12-1655 for Appalachian Power or 12-1571 for Mon Power on the PSC's website.

Gee, and the Indiana Pacers thought the last round was tough. That was just the appetizer. Now comes the main course; LeBron James au jus.
"It's a whole different monster," David West was saying of the Miami Heat — defending NBA champions and princes of darkness. An Indiana upset is out of the question in the Eastern Conference finals, right? Trying to stop the Heat, a team might as well stand in the middle of the interstate and try to slow down the next semi, correct?
Probably. Doesn't mean it won't be interesting. Just a matter of whether Indiana has enough "Buts."
Miami is on a roll with one loss in the first two rounds, looking every bit its regal self.
But ... the Pacers have become notable Heat pests. They went 2-1 against Miami this season, handing the Heat 12.5 percent of their 16 regular season defeats.
"I was telling everybody, act like we've been here before, but embrace the moment," Roy Hibbert said of Saturday's clincher over the New York Knicks. "We've got a lot more work to do. Just because we're going to the Eastern Conference finals doesn't mean it's the end of the journey for us. It's step two."
With James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Ray Allen, et. al., the Heat have more stars than a planetarium.
But ... the Pacers have become a model of glued-together pieces. All five starters led the team in scoring at least one game against the Knicks. Indiana will be like a group of ants, trying en masse to carry away the much heavier object that is the Miami Heat.
"This is the most together group I've ever been a part of," West said. "At some point every day, every guy speaks to every guy on this team. I've been on teams where that's not the case.
"We don't talk about it, we practice it ... we don't have a bunch of 'I' guys, we have a bunch of 'we' guys."
Miami has working knowledge of last spring's title run.
But ... the Pacers have working knowledge of having given the Heat some scary moments last May, going up 2-1 in their series and leading Game 4 by 10 points in the second half before Miami restored order.
"We've learned how to close," Paul George said, and Indiana just proved it against the Knicks.
When the Heat pull out their memories of the 2012 series against Indiana, they can chuckle over the brash and brain-locked actions of Lance Stephenson, who flashed the choke signal to a cold-shooting James in Game 3.
When asked about it later, James growled, "You want a quote about Lance Stephenson? I'm not even going to give him the time," and dismissed the question as if he had been asked about the popcorn vendor in aisle 12. Then James scored 40 points in Game 4.
But ... Stephenson is older and wiser and the guy who just put 25 points on the Knicks. He was so up to that moment, he said he had trouble sleeping the night before.
Suffice it to say he'll be making no gestures toward James over the next fortnight. "Just being focused, being ready for anything that comes to me," he said of his current status.
The Heat are confident, reasonably healthy and a juggernaut few think can be beaten.
But ... the Pacers are young, fearless, hungry to become an NBA version of the Hickory Huskers and sure they are more mature than the team that let Miami slip away last May.
"We're going to learn from those mistakes," Hibbert said. "We're just figuring things out and learning on the fly."
Added West, "We were up 2-1, and we dropped the ball. Everything with this group is about growth and about taking the next step."
And the next step is a whopper. "Things have been kind of building toward this," West said. "We're going to need everything from everybody."
Even that might not be enough to stop the Heat. Should be enough to push them, though.

The city of Cape Coral is considering adding 4,000 people in the North Cape to the city's water system. It would cost homeowners thousands of dollars to tap into city water, but homeowners already on the system will save big.
At Terry McCracken's North Cape home, he gets his water from a well and says he's happy with it. So when it comes to hooking up to the city's water, he's in no rush.
"I've taken care of our softening system and our well seems plenty prolific. It would just be an additional 74 to 80 bucks as a water bill to me," McCracken.
But the Cape Coral City Council is talking about bringing water - just water - into some parts of North Cape Coral. The move would not include irrigation or sewer.
"I would rather they waited until they did sewer, water and irrigation all at once," McCracken said.
But Councilman Kevin McGrail says the city will not be able to bring sewer into the area for a long time because right now, there's no sewer plant to serve the many parts of north.
"We would have to build a sewer plant there that low estimates are a $100-million to $120-million," he said.
But there is a water plant with plenty of capacity for more users. So the city could bring water to the areas around the plant near Kismet and Santa Barbara within the next two years - and for what McGrail considers to be a reasonable assessment.
"My goal is to get the cost of water only in the North Cape to the $4500 to $4000 range," he said.
And the more people on the city's utility system, the lower the rates will be. So McGrail says this plan could lower all city water bills.
Council will discuss the idea Wednesday night.
