And that's it for the day. The judge excuses the Jury and wishes them a pleasant evening. M.L. Elrick will have the highlights tonight on Fox 2 news at 5 and 6. He'll also have his daily take away on MyFoxDetroit.com. Talk to you all again tomorrow.
Chutkow now showing a change order approval. It's dated 5 days after the Johnson Consultants invoice.
Chutkow is now showing the check RAchmale used to pay Ferguson. RAchmale says it's from Lakeshore, date is 10/7/2005, for 173,000. Rachmale says it's the first payment on the invoice.
Now Chutkow is showing Rachmale a check for another 15,700. This is from Sky GRoup to Johnson and A and F environmental. Signed by Rachmale. Sky Group is the real estate arm of Lakeshore.
Rachmale says because they didn't get a signed contract from Bobby Basque of accounting procedures it was hard write a check from Lakeshore.
Says the first check came from Lakeshore but his company accountants were asking question about what it was for. Rachmale says it was easier to pay from Sky Group because his employees would be asking fewer questions. Says he moved it to Sky Group so word would not get back to Ferguson. Didn't want Ferguson to get upset, says Ferguson would say why are they talking about my moony?
Let me back track a little here, Hardiman testified earlier that Bobby had demanded that he get paid right away when the change order money came in. Hardiman said he thought Bobby was demanding cash.
Chutkow now showing and invoice from Johnson Consultants, owned by Bobby's wife. RAchmale says Hardiman gave it to him, that it came from Ferguson. RAchmale says he never asked Bobby why this invoice came from the wife's company.
Chutkow asking about services listed on the invoice. RAchmale says neither Bobby's or his wife's company ever provided the services or equipment or materials listed on the invoice. It's for 450,000. RAchmale says it was a payment for the change order on the outfalls and the unrelated asbestos contract.
Chutkow asks if the description in the invoice is false. RAchmale: Yes.
RAchmalle says Hardiman told him Bobby needed money "today" so they had several people cash checks to raise the cash to pay him. RAchmale says Hardiman said he needed it so they got the money.
Chutkow now asking about change orders on this contract. RAchmales says the city asked them for a proposal for some new work related to the project they were doing. 6 more outfalls. RAchmalle says that would add $6 million to the contract.
RAchmalle says he didn't talk to Ferguson but Hardiman did. RAchmalle says after that talk he agreed to give Bobby an additional 5%. RAchmale says Bobby would also get a percentage of the asbestos contract that amounted to around $75,000.
Chutkow asks if Bobby had anything to do with the asbestos contract. RAchmale says no, they gave him money on a completely unrelated contract that Bobby had nothing to do with so Bobby wouldn't prevent them from getting the sewer outfall change orders.
RAchmales says once the job was awarded they'd sit down with the team members and work out a contract. That if a dispute could not be settled that team member would be kicked out.
Chutkow now asks why pay Ferguson anything, why not just get another contractor. RAchmale says they already lost 2 contracts and didn't want to make Bobby mad.
Chutkow asks if they ever put Bobby's contract in writing. RAchmale says no.
RAchmale says as Lanzo finished a task, a pay application was submitted to the city, and when the city paid that, they'd pay Bobby.
RAchmale says work was delayed. That Bobby didn't take any risk on the project,d supplied no bonds, occurred no costs. RAchmale says a million dollars was not a fair price but he didn't want to upset Bobby. SAys he thought Bobby was going to at least do some work but after the dispute was settled Bobby did no work.
Chutkow now showing a letter from to Hardiman from Mercado dated March 2005. SAys DWSD is ready to enter into a contract with Lakeshore and authorizes work to begin immediately. RAchmale says they'd start work within 10 days.
Says they started negotiations with team members. RAchmale says he didn't Talk to Bobby but Hardiman did. Work didn't start right away because there was a dispute between Bobby and other team members about the line items in the contract. Lanzo and Bobby.
Rachmale says from what he understood... EVelyn objects. Chutkow now asking if RAchmale was concerned about who was going to be doing the line items. RAchmale says Bobby wanted to do some specialized lining work that was already assigned to the lining company.
RAchmale says the mediated the dispute, Hardiman briefed him on the meetings, and it was resolved that Lanzo was going to do the work and Bobby was going to get a million bucks.
Chutkow asks if RAchmale asked Bobby to contribute to the contract proposal. RAchmale says he didn't ask him much, that he didn't want to upset him, that yes someone who was getting a 1/3rd share would usually do more but he didn't want Bobby to get upset.
Chutkow asks if Hayes went out of business. Evelyn objects saying there's no foundation. The Judge explains Chutkow is just asking if RAchmale knows the company went out of business, he's not asking why, and allows the question. Rachmale says yes.
We're moving on to the contract where Lakeshore decided to accommodate Bobby and make him part of the team. Chutkow asking how they decided what percentage of the contract each team member would get. Rachmale says they split it up based on what work each team member would do. The team members were actually sub contractors and that the subcontractor contracts were not worked out until after the city gave it's award.
Rachmale says Lanzo was the lining contractor but Bobby wanted to split the contract into 3rds.
Rachmale says it's the first proposal he teamed up on with Bobby and did it so they wouldn't lose the contract.
Chutkow now showing a letter from Lakeshore to Darryl Latimer of DWSD and RAchmale is explaining that the project manager puts the team together, hires the subcontractors, makes sure the bonds are in place, and that it would be Lakeshore, in this case, that would get the contract.
RAchmale says the most important team member would be the lining company because they have the technical expertise. Remember that RAchmale testified earlier that Hayes, which did the outflows, was one of only two companies in Detroit that had this expertise.
We're back, the Judge is explaining to the jury that Rachmale's testifying that Hardiman told him that Bernard told him to meet with Bobby was not offered for the truth of it. In other words, the jury is not supposed to consider if the hearsay statements are true, only that RAchmale believe it was true and goes to his state of mind which goes to what he did next. I think she explained it better.
RAchmale is now explaining why he thought it was a mistake to include Bobby. He says because he didn't include Bobby, and because Bobby was connected to the Mayor and the Director's office, Bobby could "save" the project. Rachmale says it was Bobby's political connections that got the contracts canceled and Bobby would need to be put on the team if they wanted to do any more work for the city.
and we're on a 5 minute break.
Chutkow now showing letter saying project was canceled and work would be done under an already existing contract. RAchmalle says this was devastating and had stomach aches and couldn't come to the office for a while.
RAchmalle is a neat and tidy, and elegant man originally from India. But he doesn't look delicate. Not as rough and tumble as Hardiman, but even though he sounds thoughtful and deliberative he's not hesitant.
RAchmale says he never got any answers. When Chutkow asks if he considered leaving Detroit Rachmale answers that he landed here in Detroit, got his education in Detroit, and has a lot invested in Detroit, so he didn't leave Detroit.
RAchmale says they concluded they didn't have the right team members on their team, that they should have added Bobby to the team.
Now Chutkow is asking if Mercado's letter was dated Feb of 2003. RAchmale says yes. Now Chutkow is showing an email Rachmale sent to MErcado. It's asking for an appointment request, they want to talk to MErcado about why the contracts were pulled.
Rachmale says he met Mercado at some gathering somewhere, along with 2 other contractors, and asked Mercado at that time if they could meet.
We're now looking at another email from Rachmale asking for a meeting. Dated June 30,2003. It's than a month after the Bobby and Kwame texts.
RAchmale says he never got the requested meeting with Mercado.
Chutkow now showing text messages between Bobby and Kwame about this contract. RAchmale says he didn't know Bobby and Kwame were talking. text is from April 23, 203, the acceptance letter is from 2 months before, Chutkow points out. Rachmale affirms.
RAchmalle says he was stunned, that Lakeshore was a small company and this was devastating. And he adds that they couldn't get any answers.
Chutkow asks his reaction was to being forced to meet with Bobby about the contract. Rachmale says he told Hardiman to meet with Bobby. Also says he paid Bernard $2500. SAys Bobby came late for the meeting, had a salad, was quiet, and when asked if he could help them Bobby said he didn't know anything.
RAchmales says it was a cut and dry discussion and Bobby had nothing to tell him.
This is all about that first $10 million contract that was awarded then pulled. Now they're talking about the $5 million contract, Hardiman's now famous "10 million, 5 million."
Rachmale is now reading minutes from the Commission meeting, says the minutes say award the contract but it was pulled from the agenda. SAys he was surprised.
Now looking at a letter from Mercado to Rachmale saying the project was canceled.
This is another hearsay challenge. Judge Edmunds is now getting the attorneys views on whether this meets the RICO exceptions to hearsay.
ANd we're back.
Rachmale says it means, "We're ready to go to work."
Chutkow asks if Bobby came around asking to be part of the contract. Rachmale says Bobby approached his partner Tom Hardiman, that Hardiman wasn't happy, and didn't want to do it.
Chutkow asks if giving 25% to Bobby meant kicking off Hayes. Rachmale says they'd have taken pieces from all the partners. Says the contract wasn't moving through the city, says they usually start within a month of signing a contract but it had been 2-3 months and they were concerned. RAchmale says he asked Hardiman to talk to his city contacts to find out why they weren't getting authorization to start work.
Hardiman reported back that nobody knows anything and they finally went to meet with Bernard.
SAys Bernard told them he'd help. RAchmale says Bernard was retained as a consultant. Says Hardiman told him Bernard said to reach out to.... and we have an objection and a sidebar.
Chutkow now showing a letter from Derrick Latimer of the water department to Lakeshore. It's a letter saying "Enclosed for your review and acceptance is the Detroit wAter and Sewerage Department proposed contract."
Rachmale says they signed the documents and sent them back.
Now he's showing a memo from Mercado to the water board of commissioners saying the contract should be given to Lakeshore. It's from 2003.
Chutkow now showing the response from the commission accepting MErcado's recommendation and Mercado's signature. Rachmale says that means, "we got the contract."
Rachmale says in 1994 he was the sole employee of the company, wore the hazmat suit and did the digging and drilling.
Chutkow now asking him about a sewer contract proposal submitted during the Kilpatrick administration reign. He's asking what 100% Detroit BAsed Business means. RAchmale says all the workers and all the companies would be from Detroit. SAys it was important for him to put Detroiters in jobs.
The partners are Lakeshore, Lanzo, Hayes, Detroit Constructing, and Cole Financial Services.
Rachmale says Hayes would do excavation and reconstruction.
Says he chose Lanzo because they'd worked together in the past and had the "in situ" technology.
During the break one of the defense attorneys was joking about the "exciting" testimony about sewer lining. It is pretty dry information about stuff that's wet and yucky, but from my view point it's thrilling because it's not more of the same stuff we've been hearing for the last 5 days.
And the Bailiff says, "All rise. Court is now in session."
Chutkow asking how many companies could do this back during the Archer Admin. RAchmale says 2. Lanzo and Helen.
Judge Edmunds just called for a 20 minute break.
RAchmale is now talking about the engineering details and chemicals used to clean up and line the sewers. He says they pull a "Sock" through the pipe, fill it with hot water, and the material melts on the side of the pipes. Says they don't have to dig up sewers to fix 'em. Sounds Pretty cool. Says it's a great way to fix up sewers in a place with skyscrapers and lots of traffic. It's called "Cured IN Place" technologies.
It's interesting that RAchmale is an expert in asbestos removal, and claims to have been saddled with Bobby on the sewer contracts, but it was Bobby who did the demolition and asbestos removal of the Motown Building and also had the asbestos removal contract at the Book-Cadillac renovation. Bobby has no asbestos removal qualifications that I know of, yet instead of getting a piece of a contract, like we've seen come up in earlier testimony, he got the whole thing. We had several complaints about dust and fibers floating around when the Book-CAdillac was being renovated.
We're now looking at pictures of the inside of an outflow, it's gross, filled with brown sludge and stuff dripping off the walls. RAchmale says they have to check for poisonous gases before sending in workers. He says in the smaller pipes they send in cameras. Man if there was ever a job for a robot this is it.
Rachmale says that when they clean these up they have to build coffer dams so the sludge doesn't get into the river.
RAchmales says it's complicated and dangerous because of the toxic gases.
RAchmale says he supported the Mayor's first campaign and chaired a section of his transition team. Mark Chutkow for the prosecution is now handing him a document. THis is a letter check to the Kilpatrick Civic Fund for $25,000. From Lakeshore and signed by RAchmale. From 2008.
Chutkow now asking about Lakeshore's city work under the ARcher ADministration. Rachmale says they did asbestos abatement work.
RAchmale says they also did some inspection work on sewer outfalls, worked with Lanzo and another company named Helen Construction. Did lining work and reconstruction.
RAchmale says an outfall is where the sewer system empties into the river. If there is too much water in the system the over flow goes out the outflow. Says sludge builds up in the pipes and Lakeshore employees have special training to deal with PCB's and other toxic substances that build up in the sludge. Says you can't just sweep it out into the river.
Rachmale is now talking about how he bought a building on Woodward that was on the state demolition list. Says they fixed it up and put a bunch of local people to work fixing it up.
Says the Economic Coalition is a non-profit that helps train workers. SAys there was a "second chance" program for troubled youth, who had been in jail. Now some work for his company and some own their own businesses.
Rachmale is testifying about the early days and meeting Hardiman. What's really interesting is his testimony about Hardiman's compensation package after Hardiman sold his shares in the company. It appears that they haven't arrived at a figure yet because they are still financial ties between the companies.
Rachmale says he put Hardiman on staff for a small salary with the idea that he would mentor Hardiman and his company. That eventually turned into a long term partnership and Rachmale says Hardiman is still on the advisory board, as chairman, and advises on going after new jobs.
RAchmale says the Lakeshore Group has between 200-300 employees in Detroit alone.
Lakeshore Toltest, Sky Group, Lakeshore Health, and Lakeshore EConomic Coalition and all the companies in the group.
Lakeshore Engineering and Toltest merged in 2010.
Chutkow is now asking about the specific document just entered by EVelyn. Evelyn is objecting because it's a topic brought up in Direct. The Judge says you just brought up this document. Chutkow asks one question. Did you ever tell Oden you were being extorted. Hardiman says no. And Hardiman is finally finished.
AVinash Rachmale is taking the stand, he's the top guy at Lakeshore.
The Judge just explained to the Jury that she sustained the prosecution's objection to one exhibit but will allow the second one Evelyn wants to introduce. He's showing that document, a certificate of Liability insurance, to Hardiman now. Hardiman says he remembers the bond part but not the liability insurance part. Hardiman says the document shows the certificate holder was Lakeshore and it's from Bobby's company.
Now Evelyn is showing another document. THis is an email from FEI says please confirm that this will be a direct contract with Lakeshore. It's a request for work in 2010.
Okay, so the top part is from Colt Oden of Lakeshore asking about the direct contract and the bottom is a reply from Ferguson's company.
Evelyn is now moving on and asking him about coercion and extortion allegations. Hardiman says he did not personally feel threatened by him. Unless I missed something, EVelyn never really connected the liability insurance to a contract. The whole point of bringing it up was to show that the governments allegations that Bobby horned in on work without contributing to the project was wrong, but it fell flat.
Chutkow objected again to the line of questioning about the extortion, then EVelyn said he's just terminate his cross.... and now we're in yet another sidebar.
This was a pretty long sidebar. Evelyn is now showing Hardiman a document. Chutkow just asked another question and we're going back into another sidebar. All the attorneys except Rataj and Can Duesen went to the table but Bobby got up and whispered in Rataj's ear, now he's going up to the bench as well.
Evelyn now being admonished by the Judge for "re-plowing" what they did on regular cross examination. He's standing in silent contemplation now at the podium, going over his notes. He's handing Hardiman a document now. Nope, we're going into a sidebar.
This issue is that Evelyn is basically re-doing his cross examination, which took about 3 hours. Once he's done... he's done. He can't go back now, he can only deal with the topics on redirect. The process is one of constant refinement. The broad outline is brought out in Direct examination. The Defense gets to Cross examine on those topics and bring up counterpoints. The prosecution then gets to refined further any questions brought up in Cross during RE-Direct, then the prosecution gets the last word but must deal only with what was brought up in Re-direct.
EVelyn now asking if Hardiman had his own legal concerns when agents showed up at his door. Hardiman says yes he was concerned.
Evelyn wants to know if Bobby called him an idiot. Hardiman says the relationship developed that way over time.
Evelyn asks if Hardiman remembers testifying that he didn't like paying people. Hardiman says he doesn't remember saying it in that way. THat he didn't have a problem paying people if it was fair.
Hardiman is testifying that he told the Mayor during his campaign that he would never ask for special consideration but wanted access if he ran into a problem.
The Judge is now telling Evelyn that his line of questioning is not in keeping with the prosecutions re-direct. The rules are that Evelyn can now, only ask questions pertaining to what the prosecutors asked when they did re-direct, he had his chance to ask questions on cross examination and now must stick to the topics on re-direct.
Evelyn asks if Hardiman said he got no special consideration. Hardiman says not personally.
The Jury is in and the Judge reminds Hardiman that he's still under oath. Gerald Evelyn is doing the questioning. He's asking Hardiman about what he told the government during his first interview by agents.
The video feed is up in the overflow room and we're just waiting for the Jury to come in and Hardiman to take the witness stand. "All rise." Judge Nancy Edmunds is on the bench.
Tom Hardiman will take the stand again this morning. He's had a tough time remembering details when being questioned by the defense about his company, employees, and how much he got after selling his interest in Lakeshore engineering, but he sure remembers those two contracts that got pulled. "10 million, 5 million."
The big score by the defense yesterday was a letter written by a Lakeshore engineering employee praising Bobby Ferguson's work after the "climate of Fear" was over. But it took so long to get there, and was buried under so much clutter that it really didn't come across as a big deal.
As my friend and colleague M.L. Elrick mentioned yesterday, "Justice may be blind and all that, but it's certainly not impatient." I might add, blind and tedious. We'll see if Ferguson's attorney Gerald Evelyn can get anything more out of Hardiman today besides, "I don't recall" or "I don't remember." Those phrases seem to have replaced, "5 million, 10 million."
Good Morning from the Theodore Levin Federal Court House in downtown Detroit.

Winterboro is the top seed in the tournament, while TC Central is the fourth seed.
TC Central had a chance to win the game when Tiarrial Duncan grabbed a defensive rebound with 2.8 seconds left and TC Central head coach Robert Duncan called a timeout. After the timeout, the inbounds pass went to Duncan at half court and she dribbled up and let off an off-balance shot just before time expired that was close but didn't go in the hoop.
"Luck fell our way tonight," Winterboro head coach Sheroderick Smith said. "That was a key to the win. The last shot by Tiarrial could've went in, but it fell out. So, luck fell on our side tonight."
At an individual level, Duncan reached a milestone during the game.
"Hats off to Tiarrial Duncan, just a sophomore," coach Duncan said. "She surpassed 1000 points tonight. She only lacked two points from surpassing 1000 points for her career. I think that's a great accomplishment in itself."
For Duncan, she found the accomplishment encouraging but unsatisfying because of the game's result.
"It encourages me to try to reach 2000, still got a couple years left," she said. "I tried because it's a big game, especially in the County Tournament. I just wish we would have come out with the win. If it wasn't for the good pass my teammate gave, we wouldn't have gotten to the end and they could have taken the ball away and made it not possible for us to have a shot to win. We know that we have more to practice on with them [Winterboro] and we'll meet them again in the Area Tournament."
TC Central started the game with a strong first quarter, jumping out to a 7-3 lead following a 3-pointer by Duncan. However, Winterboro battled back to cut the lead to 8-7 by the end of the first quarter and eventually gained the lead 17-13 at the half.
Whenever Winterboro seemed poised to gain a big lead, TC Central fought their way back into the game. When Winterboro gained a 22-16 advantage, TC Central battled back to the game at 22-22 after Duncan made a difficult jumper over the arms of an outstretched defender and Savona Garrett made a two-point shot in the post.
Winterboro had a 34-33 lead in the fourth quarter when Duncan hustled after a loose rebound and made a close-range two point shot to give TC Central their first lead of the second half, 35-34.
On the ensuing Winterboro possession, Anslea Twymon drove to the basket and hit a two-point shot to give Winterboro all it needed to win, 36-35.
Despite the loss, coach Duncan said he was proud of his team's effort.
"She's just a competitor," he said of Duncan's performance. "Just like all the girls, they just compete. Like I tell them, you might not shoot 75% every night, but you can hustle and play hard every night. They gave me the effort that I asked for and we just came up short. When you're playing a team such as Winterboro, they're a good basketball team. I feel like our girls came out and gave a wonderful effort."
Smith said he wasn't at all surprised to be given such a difficult time by a fierce rival.
"TC really brought it to us tonight," he said. "It's your typical Winterboro-TC rivalry game. I'm not surprised by the excitement at the end, the excitement during the game. I'm not surprised by it at all. Coach Duncan, in my opinion, is one of the master motivators."
Anslea Twymon finished with a game-high 14 points, while teammate Nadia Estelle contributed seven points.
For TC Central, Tiarrial Duncan led the way with 11 points, while Savona Garrett also finished with 11 points. Destinee Garrett chipped in seven points.
Coach Duncan thinks the experience of the game will be good for his team, just as the high-stakes Area Tournament is coming into focus.
"In a long season like this you have ups and downs," he said. "I feel like we're kind of reaching our peak right now at a good time, getting ready for the area tournament. We kind of changed speeds as the season goes, we went into a little slump a couple weeks ago but we're just going to keep working hard and see where it turns out."

ERIE, Pa. (AP) - A Pennsylvania woman has been fined $500 for
cursing because she was frustrated with being picked to serve on a jury.
The Erie Times-News reports that Erie County Judge Ernest DiSantis levied the
fine Wednesday on Kathleen Port.
DiSantis told the Erie woman she was "totally out of
line" and explained jury service is a duty of citizenship.
Port, whose phone number is
unlisted, apologized several times but was fined nonetheless.
She told the judge she was upset because
jury service would make her miss work and cost her income.
DiSantis says Port could have
claimed a hardship on her jury service questionnaire, but did not.
Port was also thrown off the jury,
which was picked to hear an illegal weapons case.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by PDXFJ LOVE the Superstars for almost 40 years. I used to save up all summer working a paper route for a pair of Superstars to wear in the new school year. Skip almost 40 years later and I've got easily 10 pairs in rotation(I have a lot more boxed up!). Adidas has perfected this shoe - back in the day the leather upper was matched to a more yellow rubber outsole but today it is a very crisp and clean bright white. As for the shoe--it starts off comfortable and becomes more so over time. It is a very durable shoe and can put up with a lot of harsh wear. I tend to rotate my shoes daily as to keep the interior in top shape. I buy when I see an original or interesting strip color as these rarely wear out. I can't recommend highly enough. March 7, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by kain "made in" country matters These shoes are very comfortable. I have a pair of the all black superstars that i wear for work and i love them so much i just had to have something with a little more color for everyday use. I got these in record time which was a happy surprise but i noticed that they were quite a bit smaller than my other pair though they were the 'same' size. The only difference between them was that my all blacks were made in Vietnam and my new pair were made in India. It's good that i have small feet and I like roomy shoes because they do fit quite well, it was just a little strange. Overall still very happy with my shoes and their quality. May 18, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Mekaneckpain Nice sneakers, If you don't have flat feet. Over 10 years ago I bought the same sneakers, but I don't remember them being so uncomfortable. I have a size 11.5-12 EE foot. I'm also flatfooted so it's hard to find comfy sneakers. So since I had them before I figured I'd buy them again to go with my new adidas hoody. I tried everything to make them work, but they are not made for people with sasquach feet. I don't recomend them if you have wide, flat feet. Otrherwise, They are a well built pair of sneakers. Also wanted to add that most adidas that I've tried on have the same issue with prominant arch support. Also they run small so if your normally a men's size 9, I would try a 10. May 19, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by mlglazie Had a pair of these for a decade!! Ok, I LOVE these!! I'm a girl and I got these shoes just before starting highschool, which, was a decade (10 years!) ago and I still wear them nearly daily!! They are a bit dirtier and the backs have wore out a bit, but, they still are in great shape and my go-to tennis shoe!! I recently decided I needed to maybe look for a new pair and I was happy to see these are still being made. I haven't ordered yet, but hoping soon to get a new pair, just had to share my story with anyone who is thinking of these. I will never in my life have a pair of shoes last as long as these one have, and, again, I'm still wearing them as daily shoes 10 years after purchase! Amazing!! :D (And, I still remember the sales guys telling me, a girl about 13 or so that they were men's shoes and none would fit me, but, I insisted, I fell in love with the color/design, got a pair size 6 and it was a great fit!) April 20, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by fooddood Old-School Shelltoes (superstar) I have always loved the old-school Adidas shelltoes, known as Superstar. They got re-released (2.0), slightly different but equally as comfortable and rugged as I remember. The small differences are a different insole than I remember, slightly higher arch, but still comfy. I like the leather black with white stripes and the old ones had the stripes as the only thing white, but the 2.0's have a white upper heel. Not a biggie, but I likes it black with the Adidas logo in white. All in all, very pleased with my purchase, same price as anywhere and fast shipping made it good for me. I hate having to got to the malls and try to find the right shoes when I know the ones I want. February 27, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by Mannysonlarimer Disappointed I ordered some custom Superstars from mi-Adidas. The shoe fits great, and it looks great, but with one disappointing exception. When customizing the shoe, you can rotate the shoe so you can see it from multiple angles. The show on the screen showed the logo as black on a red background-which is what I wanted- but the actual shoe arrived as red on red. I double checked the site to ensure that there was no specific option in the ordering process to choose the logo color, and found nothing. It's not a major issue, but it is definitely disappointing, and enough so that I'd never order a custom pair again. I'd also caution anyone else against doing so either. January 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by LarryY Superstar 2 shoes, Size 15 I have large feet and so typically find limited selection. I have found that Adidas shoes fit me well, their construction in the way they form their shoes fits my feet well. Also I've found that their size 15 fits me well, from one year to the next and one Adidas model to the next. So I trusted ordering on-line, and was not disappointed. The shoes fit well so I did not have to send them back, and this saved a trip to a retail outlet store. The shoes are attractive - I wear them to work. Very good on-line experience, good shoes. Thanks. August 31, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Big J Good Buy First off I'd like to say that the superstar 2.0s are definitely an awesome shoe so don't let my review sound negative to you, take it as just a helpful piece of information when buying your shoes. I personally have a wider foot so the shoe fits alright but its tight in the front. Other then that I have no complaint's. I especially like the style and look of the Adidas. So my main recommendation is if you have wider feet go a size bigger. The reason i didn't send them back and get a new pair was because i felt like they fit the back of my foot good and didn't want to risk them being too big. Overall though I'd have to say they are some awesome shoes and would definitely recommend them to anyone, thank you Adidas! October 28, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Slicc Raskal Best purchase ever Aight, real talk first time i've ever worn these shoes was when I was about 11 me and my brother were dirt poor and went looking through trash can after trash can in rich neighborhoods looking for clothes, food and what not. As some people say "another man trash is another man's treasure" and then I stumble across these pretty much new shoes, and I was like wow... blown away.. better than wearing 2 different worn out tennis shoes. Good memories, and reminiscing. =) Looks very great i'll tell you that. ya heard May 16, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Wirenutz Love the Original Superstar! This is the REAL DEAL First of all, for the longest time I wanted an original Superstar like I wore in High School back in the late 70's. Time spoils the memory, but I remember how great the quality was back then. I was leery about getting these since I have bee disappointed almost every time I get something that is "supposed to be just like the Original"....It never is. Congrats Adidas. You nailed it. You didn't chintz out, you did it right, these look and feel every bit as good as I remember. I know it costs more to do it right., but know us "old timers" appreciate it. Thanks for holding true with the materials and workmanship. Get them. You won't be disappointed. August 12, 2014

Terrell Owens was in a Los Angeles Superior Court Wednesday to try to lower payment on two of his four paternity cases. Inadvertently, judge Mark Mariani may have told Owens what everyone else seems to already know. That his NFL playing days are officially over.
"His NFL career seems to be over. I mean no disrespect," said Mariani, according to TMZ, which then led Owens apparently to nod his head in acknowledgment.
The former Dallas Cowboys and Cincinnati Bengals receiver was in court following the issuing of a warrant for his arrest following failure to appear for a child support hearing on Oct. 24.
Owens does have a rumored mid-six-figures offer on the table from the Indoor Football League's Allen Wranglers, whom you are hearing about for the first time. It's unknown if this is a real possibility for just a publicly stunt, which, sums up Owens career in the last 3-4 years perfectly.

BOSTON (AP) - The Republican National Committee has approved a resolution to block two television networks from hosting GOP presidential primary debates.
Friday's vote affirms RNC chairman Reince Priebus's threat against CNN and NBC unless the networks drop plans to air programs about possible Democratic presidential contender Hillary Rodham Clinton. The vote at the committee's summer meeting in Boston was unanimous.
Priebus said that the networks have, quote, "an obvious bias."
Even before the Clinton dispute, Republican leaders favored plans to have fewer presidential debates with more friendly moderators. They believe their 2012 presidential candidates spent too much time beating up each other in last year's months-long primary season, which contributed to Mitt Romney's loss.

Placenta Previa
Placenta Previa Overview
Placenta previa is a complication of pregnancy in which the placenta (the organ that joins the mother and fetus and transfers oxygen and nutrients to the fetus) is implanted either near to or overlying the outlet of the uterus (womb). Placenta previa is found in approximately four out of every 1000 pregnancies beyond the 20th week of gestation. The main symptom of placenta previa is bleeding.
Several terms have been used to characterize placenta previa. The types of placenta previa include:

The easy part is over for Kim Schoel. The Lake Avenue artist received approval from the Planning Commission earlier this month to convert a commercial building in Birdtown into a live/work studio and art gallery.
Schoel must now acquire the property, and begin the hard work of transforming it into her creative headquarters. "This building would kind of be the ideal place for it," she said.
Schoel estimated the studio will be added first, followed by the gallery, and then the living space. The pace will be dictated by her budget, and it could be a couple of years before she's able to make it her primary residence.
A jewelry designer who sells most of her work at arts festivals, Schoel said she expects to hold events in conjunction with artists at the nearby Screw Factory, in addition to solo events once per quarter.
She'll be the structure's sole resident. "I like my space," she said. "I'm a quiet, considerate person." At some point down the road, she may hire an assistant.
Commission felt artist would be good fit for the neighborhood
In approving Schoel's request to repurpose the building, the Commission applied the same section of the zoning code it used last year to permit a financial services business to open in a former church located in a residential neighborhood on Delaware Avenue.
Basically, the code states that the use of the building can be changed from one business to another as long as the new business doesn't make any structural changes and is more "appropriate and compatible" with the neighborhood than the existing business — in this case a three-person commercial machine shop.
Mark Stockman, the chairman of the Commission, praised Schoel's plan: "This will be a fantastic project." The director of planning and development was equally as enthusiastic and hoped it would help the city attract similar developments in the future. "You're going to help us by being the live guinea pig," he said.
What direction will this building go in?
Keep an eye on the brick building at 12405 Madison Avenue. It was just placed on the market and is priced to sell at $60,000. It has a small storefront space, with a one-unit apartment to the rear. It will be interesting to see who buys it.
Will the purchaser be a creative-type who turns it into something neat, or will it fall into the hands of an absentee landlord who neglects it?
With all of the emphasis City Hall says it will place on improving Madison Avenue in 2013 and 2014, the property could be a diamond in the rough for the right investor.

The doctors from Bioware discuss the Old Republic Launch, ending a trilogy, and a Mass Effect MMO
The founders of Bioware are collectively referred to within the industry as the doctors. Drs. Greg Zeschuk and Ray Muzyka sat with me for in an interview in a nice hotel suite in Las Vegas, and they seemed completely content with the world and their place in it. The launch of Bioware's Star Wars MMO The Old Republic went beautifully, with few technical hiccups and almost 2 million paying subscribers at the last official count. Mass Effect 3 is weeks away from completing one of the most successful trilogies in gaming. They have good reasons to be smiling. "We're the fastest-growing MMO in history, and it's really a credit to our fans," Muzyka said. "The launch was fantastic." Taking on World of WarCraft was considered a near impossibility in the world of online games, but Bioware has the strength of the Star Wars brand alongside the company's ability to tell wonderful stories. It's a hard game to say no to, even for MMO beginners like myself. They also had the advantage of a late December launch, which was more good luck than planning. "We didn't want to launch until we were ready. Even coming up towards the fall, it was very hard to see how things would pan out," Muzyka said. "It's almost like we could exclude dates, but we couldn't guarantee one. There were so many moving parts. It was like making the largest Xbox game ever while making Xbox Live at the same time. And they both had to work flawlessly when you launch them on the first day." The final beta test was actually larger than the launch itself, and Zeshuk remembered watching the number of players logging into the game, while other MMO veterans remarked that the numbers had surpassed the launch of other titles they had worked on. "You just passed our launch," someone would say. The numbers would continue to climb. "You just passed our launch," another developer would point out. The numbers continued to climb. "Soon no one was saying that," Muzyka said. Still, Zeschuk pointed out that many in the industry were skeptical about the launch window. "Everyone was like, 'You don't launch then!' There's a traditional adage that you can't do that, but ironically we launched December 21, 1998 with Baldur's Gate. And that went really well. That sold a few copies," he said. The Christmas launch was due to the timing of the game finally being ready for mass consumption, but Bioware was able to gain a large amount of mindshare due to the lack of other big-name games launching in the same time period. It paid off. The average play session at launch was around six hours. By the time February rolled around players were still playing for an average of four hours per session. The game is a hit.
Mass Effect
The success of The Old Republic was only part of the current Bioware story, however. Mass Effect 3 is on the way, and it has much to live up to after the first two games. Does the game have any chance of sticking the landing? Will it offer a conclusion that satisfies the fans? "I just finished an end to end playthrough, for me the ending was the most satisfying of any game I've ever played… the decisions you make in this game are epic," Dr. Muzyka promised. "The team has been planning for this for years, since the beginning of the Mass Effect franchise. Largely the same team, most of the same leads have worked on this for years and years. They've thought about [the ending] for years and years. It's not something they've had to solve in a week or a month even, but over the course of five or ten years." He used all the expected buzzwords to describe the ending: visceral, powerful, and rewarding. We're also promised the feeling of wanting more and, of course, after the credits… I brought up my favorite loose ends from the past games, such as the Genophage and the Rachni. Muzyka counted them off on his fingers, saying each one will come to a conclusion. "Pretty much everything that people want to see wrapped up, or to be given answers, will be," he explained. He also pointed out that you should feel confident playing if this is your first Mass Effect title. "You don't need that prior knowledge. We want this to be the most accessible entry point into the series. We wanted this to be the game that answered all their questions… if you're wondering if three is a good place to enter, absolutely. Yes. It's the most emotionally powerful entry point. It's the most polished of the franchise." I asked about the popular fan rumor of a Mass Effect MMO. "Now that we've learned MMOs are really easy to make, and simple to run after the fact, we're on it!" Dr. Zeschuk said, laughing. "The interesting thing, the implication of a Mass Effect MMO has so many expectations. We already bit off a big thing to chew with a Star Wars MMO, and that's not so small," he said. It became clear they had given the idea at least some thought. "It's daunting, but the neat thing is it would lend itself to a different type of game play. It's fun to think about. I imagine people think it would be just like Mass Effect as it is… but there's lots of people there. It's really interesting, I don't know. It's a tough one." "The possibility space, that's a term that I heard Will Wright say about ten years ago, and it really struck me," Muzyka continued, pointing out that most Bioware properties could work as MMOs. "When you deliver a game, and you deliver it for a player, you have to capture what they think is the possibility space. You need to let them do everything they think they should do, and you can't block them from doing anything they think they should be able to do. You have to nail all the features and content that should be in that possibility space." He paused for a moment. "Mass Effect is a big possibility space."

Redskins rout
Troy Warnecke took the loss for the Blue Jays (3-7, 0-2 MAC). He had the only run batted in. Curtis Geise and Ryan Buescher had the hits.
The Bulldogs used a combination of strong pitching and hitting to run-rule their Putnam County League foe. Grove put up four runs in the third and fourth innings and scored in every frame in the shortened contest. Trey Roney went 2-for-3 with an RBI, while Brandon Benroth celebrated his birthday with a 2-for 4-performance, knocking in a pair.
Alex Vetter was 2-for-2 for the Musketeers.
Blake Hoffman led off the game with a double, moved to third on a wild pitch and came around to score on a Benroth fly to left.
The 'Dogs added another run in the second when Kody Griffith reached on an error, then scored on a Trent Vorst single, making it a 2-0 game.
Columbus Grove pitcher Josh Verhoff faced the mininum number of batters in the first three innings. He gave up a walk to Dylan Van Loo in the first but was caught stealing; Vetter singled in the second but Ryan Rau hit into a 6-4-3 double play to end the second inning.
The Bulldogs sent nine batters to the plate in their half of the third frame, with four crossing the plate. Matt Jay walked, followed by a Roney single. Brady Shafer, Verhoff and Trent Vorst (2-for-3, 2 RBIs) all had base hits, with Verhoff and Vorst knocking in runs as the hosts had a 6-0 advantage.
Fort Jennings threatened in the top of the fourth. Jared Hoersten drew a 2-out walk and Kurt Warnecke followed with a single. It looked as if the Musketeers were going to dent the plate when Vetter singled to center but a strong throw by Hoffman to Jay cut down Hoersten at the plate to leave a zero on the board for the guests.
In the top half of the fifth the Musketeers staved off the run rule when Rau led off with a single and came around to score when Zach Finn reached on an error in what looked like a for-sure game-ending double play but a wild throw by the Grove second baseman kept the game alive for the guests at 10-1.
Fort Jennings pitcher Warnecke came back out to the mound in the home half with his pitch count at 100. He walked Hoffman to lead off the inning the Bulldog center fielder moved to second on a wild pitch before Benroth celebrated his birthday with a game-ending single.

Heading into adoption, New Iberia city council members are still projecting a multi-million dollar budget deficit for 2014.
"It looks like our deficit is still going to be close to two million dollars," says Mayor Pro-Tem Dan Doerle.
Doerle says $320,000 of the deficit is from the fire department budget and is covered by taxes.
"We have dedicated taxes that can take care of that deficit," says Doerle.
More than $1 million dollars of the deficit is from building a sewage plant in 2005, which is covered with a user fee increase from this past summer.
"Doing that gave us an opportunity to renegotiate our bonds and borrow more money to pay for the debt. And when we did that we saved money on interest," says Doerle.
Q: So, really the deficit we're looking at is about $160,000?
Doerle: "I would think so. That would be a real number that we have to be concerned about," says Doerle.
To help cover the $160,000 deficit he says the city will continue their hiring freeze.
"We have about 50 employees less than we had two years ago," says Doerle.
He also says, using all, not just some, of the mils voters approved for the city's Parks and Recreation Department is helping, too.
"That collects us about $100,000 a year," says Doerle.
But, he says, parks and recreation was also the department hit hardest in next year's budget.
"Their budget is down to $1,100,000 and it was all the way up to at $1,300,000 at one point, so that department is probably taking the biggest hit so far that I can see," says Doerle.

The LSU Tigers jumped out to an early lead and held off No. 17 Missouri down the stretch on their way to a 73-70 upset win in Baton Rouge, La.
For more on the story, visit Rock M Nation and And the Valley Shook
Three players for LSU scored in double figures, led by 20 points from Anthony Hickey, who struggled with his shot. He was 1-of-7 from three, but made the most of his attempts inside the arc, shooting 9-of-17 overall. Johnny O'Bryant III had a double-double with 14 points and 11 rebounds.
Not surprisingly, Phil Pressey led the way for Missouri with 25 points to go along with five assists and four steals. Backcourt play was particularly important for Missouri to get back into the game, as big man Alex Oriakhi was limited to one point and was hampered by foul trouble. The No. 17 team in the country also scored just 12 points off the bench.
LSU led by as much as 16 in the second half before Missouri started to come back. Missouri used a 12-0 run to draw to within four points before Hickey answered back with seven straight. LSU missed four free throws in the final 30 seconds to give Missouri some life, but Missouri could not capitalize.

Opening marks for the new head coaches
Posted on Sun, Oct. 01, 2006
[size=13pt]OPENING MARKS[/size]
Brad Childress is one of nine new coaches in the NFL, but not all of them are having a memorable start.
Sean: During the offseason, Vikings owner Zygi Wilf had first pick of all the available coaching candidates, and he selected Brad Childress to lead his team. So far, Wilf's choice appears solid, as the Vikings, despite arguably their toughest stretch of the season, are off to a 2-1 start under Childress.
Today, Childress is opposite another new head coach, Dick Jauron, formerly of the Chicago Bears. The Buffalo Bills are 1-2, after playing two of their first three division games on the road.
But eight other teams made changes this offseason: the New York Jets (Eric Mangini), Houston Texans (Gary Kubiak), Oakland Raiders (Art Shell), Kansas City Chiefs (Herm Edwards), Green Bay Packers (Mike McCarthy), New Orleans Saints (Sean Payton), Detroit Lions (Rod Marinelli) and St. Louis Rams (Scott Linehan).
Who do you think has done the best job so far, Don?
Don: A lot of coaches have done a good job, including Childress. But no one has done better so far than Sean Payton in New Orleans. I thought the Saints would come back to earth in Monday night's game against Atlanta. Instead, they looked like a playoff team in a convincing 23-3 victory. Childress and Eric Mangini with the Jets are both off to good starts. But if you were voting today for coach of the year, Payton would top most people's ballot.
Sean: I have also been impressed with Payton, who, like Childress, has taken a hard-line stance in shaping his roster. His approach reminds me more of a college coach, but Payton has earned the respect of his team and his community.
The other coach who has impressed me is former Vikings offensive coordinator Scott Linehan, whose Rams are off to a 2-1 start. They surprisingly defeated the Denver Broncos in the opener, and they won one of their two division games on the road. That's not too bad.
He made a wise choice in selecting former Saints head coach Jim Haslett to run his defense, and his offense has only scored 47 points. But Linehan's unit will come around and perhaps blow up this week against the Detroit Lions.
Don: I like the Linehan hire, too. The Rams are a weird 2-1, beating the Broncos and then turning around and losing to the San Francisco 49ers. But at least they appear to be on the right track.
That's more than you can say for some of these teams with new coaches, like Oakland and Detroit. Rod Marinelli's drill sergeant approach was supposed to light a fire under the underachieving Lions. But at 0-3, they still look like one of the NFL's worst teams.
The Raiders might be even worse, with an 0-2 record under Art Shell, an injured starting quarterback (Aaron Brooks) and two unhappy receivers (Randy Moss and Jerry Porter).
Even the Texans, who are 0-3, under Gary Kubiak, aren't as messed up as the Raiders are.
Sean: Moss unhappy? That's a new one.
But I think the Raiders, with all their offensive talent, will scare at least a few opponents this season. In Houston, I'm not sure a proven assistant like Kubiak has enough talent to turn around the Texans. They obviously need to be patient.
The three losing teams that I can't criticize are the Packers, Chiefs and Bills. I think the Chiefs can become a contender, if ââ¬â and when ââ¬â Trent Green returns. That's tough for any team to lose its starting quarterback so early in the season. Besides, the 0-2 Chiefs have lost to two playoff teams from 2005, and they lost a heartbreaker, 9-6, in Denver.
I think McCarthy is a good coach. But the Packers clearly need some of their high-paid players to start stepping up more. And, once again, the Packers have to be patient with a rookie linebacker (A.J. Hawk).
As for the Bills, they went into Miami and beat the Dolphins, who were projected as a possible Super Bowl team, and they played the New England Patriots and Jets tough in their two losses.
Don: Except for Brett Favre, the Packers are in full rebuilding mode. So Mike McCarthy gets a pass for this season. Even with the loss of Trent Green, I'm surprised the Chiefs are 0-2. Like a lot of people, I thought Herm Edwards was trading up when he forced his way out with the Jets. And I thought Eric Mangini would be in over his head. Instead, Edwards' old team has looked a lot better than his new one.
And I think Kansas City is going to have a hard time turning its season around, no matter when Green gets back.
As far as Buffalo, I thought Jauron was a surprising hire for the Bills, especially after he went 1-4 as the Lions' interim coach last season. But at least he didn't end up with the full-time job there.
If anyone traded up during the offseason, it's him.
Sean: I think by season's end, the Chiefs will be right in the thick of things. They have too many weapons on offense and some talented players on defense not to be a contender, regardless of how many weeks Green misses.

Re: Opening marks for the new head coachesDon: Except for Brett Favre, the Packers are in full rebuilding mode. So Mike McCarthy gets a pass for this season.
The HC & the organization had the opportunity to sign the players they lost, with the but failed to do it.
They shouldn't get a free ride because of it.
They had a pretty decent cap this year, but wasn't it McCarthy's choice to get his players thru the draft instead of FA?
He's to blame for that. No free rides in the NFL.

One of the best pics I've ever seen
Absolutely stunning. Nice shot.
Thanks guys.
Nice shot -- did you use a polarizing filter? It looks like this was shot from the A-hills, is that correct? It really came together well.
I used Cannon G2 with UV filter and the camera was set on the roof of a car. Shot was taken just beyond the A-hills. I was lucky with the clouds (it rained later in the afternoon). Thanks for all the nice comments.
This is beautiful!
LOVE this photo! Great shot.
Hey Kris, Great shot. My brother and I just did the east face car to car in a day and i wanted a photo of the mountain. Your photo is better than the ones sold online. 2 questions: Will your picture enlarge well (# of pixels?)?..And would you consider selling me a copy?? Thanks, Mike

For The Fayette Tribune
Senior forward Tyler Skaggs and junior defender Jose Hunter are among six Midland Trail boys soccer players receiving postseason recognition.
Skaggs was named second-team all-state by the West Virginia High School Soccer Coaches Association and will be playing in the North-South All-Star contest on Nov. 25 in Fairmont.
Hunter received honorable mention all-state from the coaches association, while he and Skaggs were named to the all-Coalfield Conference first team.
Joining the pair in receiving Coalfield recognition were second-team selections Brandon Belcher and Danny Hunter and honorable mention picks Dallas Lesher and Nikolas Brewer. Belcher and Hunter are senior midfielders, Lesher is a senior forward, and Brewer is a sophomore goalkeeper.
"These players worked extremely hard this season and I am pleased that opposing coaches have recognized them for their accomplishments," said Midland Trail coach Dave Pollard. "We have achieved considerable success as a team in our first two years as a high school program and this is directly related to the dedication of this core group of players."
In its inaugural season in 2011, Trail rang up a 7-9-4 record and followed that in 2012 with an 8-11-2 mark. "This is unprecedented for second-year teams to win this number of games. There is no better teacher than experience in playing at the high school level and when you think about, our seniors are second-year players while nearly all of our opponents were playing with fourth-year seniors," Pollard said.
"We not only had a solid record, but there were just two games all year where we didn't compete well and have an opportunity to win. We will lose some excellent players to graduation but they have set the tone and enabled our younger players to learn how to win. I think that you will see many more Trail players receiving postseason accolades in the years to come."

Update: Brian Collins successfully made his case to the Leawood City Council. Starting Tuesday, he can put his library back up. The council is expected to take final action in mid-October.
Can a library be illegal? The city of Leawood says yes, but a little boy hopes to change their opinion on the matter.
Little Free Libraries are popping up across the metro. They allow book lovers to borrow and share their favorite books whenever they want.
"We came back to find a letter from the code enforcement telling us it was an illegal dwelling or structure," Brian Collins said.
Collins put up a Little Free Library on Mother's Day in his front yard near the intersection of 89th Street and Ensley Lane.
"Given that nothing can dwell in here except maybe mice, I really didn't understand what that was all about," he said.
According to the city, people living in Leawood can't have a free-standing structure in their front yard.
"My neighbors think it's awesome," Collins said.
Ken McGregor lives across the street.
"When they put it up, I thought it was kind of cool," McGregor said. "I would see the grandparents sit there and read to their kids. Kids will look around, pick up books and read. Seems like it's kind of fun."
Not everyone thinks it's fun. Another neighbor told KCTV5 off camera he's glad the city is making Collins remove the library because he believes it's an eyesore for the neighborhood.
The Collins family decided to take their Little Free Library down on Wednesday, the day before their deadline to remove it. It now sits in their garage.
Instead of paying a $25 per day fine, they hope to have a conversation with the city council about the possibility of changing their city codes to allow for the libraries.
Spencer Collins, 9, asked his parents if he could address the city council at their July 7 meeting. His mother, Sarah Collins, said he was left with a lot of questions after their library was taken down. She said he loved to check on the library and as soon as he got home, he would jump out of the car and run up to it to see what new books were left and which ones were borrowed. He hopes to explain to the city council why he loves Little Free Libraries so much and how important they are.
"The good thing is that, because of this, there are going to be more Little Free Libraries built everywhere. It's bringing attention to them," Sarah Collins said.
A spokesperson for the city said the reason for the ordinance is to not only protect the integrity of the neighborhood, but to make sure nothing negatively affects property values in Leawood.

Spring cleaning is a tradition in many homes. It is a cleansing process for many – particularly after a harsh winter.
It is also needed.
We applaud the nearly 3,000 volunteers who have already signed up to extend their spring cleaning efforts into the community to take part in Montgomery's version of the Great American Clean-up program – Pick-Up Montgomery!
They'll be cleaning up all around town - in schools, parks, and cemeteries.
You can volunteer as well. There are littered sites all over town.
Just call the Clean City Commission in Montgomery and they'll provide complimentary trash bags to help your clean up efforts.
Or just clean up on your own in your neighborhood – or your work place. We can then truly say business is picking up!
And if you drop trash, you should pay cash. We encourage and applaud litter violation enforcement!
Let's make pollen the only spring time nuisance!

I'm using Windows8 as my host OS, and are running a Linux Mint VM on virtualbox, with its network being virtualized as NAT. I'm using Ciscos AnyConnect VPN to get access to a certain network. The Cisco anyConnect is run from my host OS(Windows). When I run AnyConnect at the host-os, the VM is able to connect to the vpn-network as well.
However, when I run AnyConnect at windows, the DNS lookup of the Linux Mint VM stops working. (It's internet connection otherwise is fine).
/etc/resolv.conf looks identical both when the DNS fails(vpn connected on windows-host), and when DNS works correctly(vpn is disconnected on windows-host).
Any clue why and how to fix it?

A Georgia high school has added a group to its online community that includes social and academic resources, including discussions, blogs, and study groups.
James Madison High School, located in Peachtree Corners, offers an all-online accredited high school diploma program. The online community has more than 38,000 members.
The community provides a link to the virtual campus, where students go to find lessons, assignments, tests, etc.
Features of the virtual campus include discussion groups on a variety of subjects and topics, such as education and careers; a welcome center, which includes orientation videos and live-streaming chats; tutorials focused on areas such as science and math; and online help from staff for questions on grades, credit transfer, shipping, payments, etc.
According to Leslie Gargiulo, chief education officer for James Madison High School, features of the online community include tools for students to:
"After a student enrolls, we encourage them to join the online high school community right away. Our research indicates that the more active a student is in the student community, the more likely they will be motivated, earn better grades and graduate sooner," said Gargiulo.
According to the school, one online community member who recently finished the American History course, wrote: "I really learned a lot about U.S. history and found that I was able to answer all the questions on the practice SAT subject test for U.S. History. The course is packed with a ton of information. You have to make the effort in order to score an A or B--it's very comprehensive, so common sense and prior knowledge won't help you here."
James Madison High School, which is owned by Ashworth College and accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council and Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement, follows Common Core State Standards. High school students also have access to Ashworth online community groups.

Thank you for the review. We are very sad to hear that you didn't like our building, which is a royal mansion was built by the Habsburgs in 1905. So it surely has age, but it is fully renovated from inside and cleaned daily, but we will try to increase the cleaning even further. Sorry for the miscomfort.

- 02 Dec 2013 Anonymous USA
" Great location right next to public transport stations, quite central. Fancy building with high rooms and clean renewed bathrooms. Bed could have been a bit more comfortable and it was very hot in August. Next to a busy street so during summertime (windows open) you should look for other options if you are a bad sleeper. Some spider webs on the ceilings but otherwise very tidy. A bit on the more expensive side but still great value all things considered! "
Owner Comment
Thank you for the recommendation, we are very happy, that your overall expression was positive about Maverick. We are going to pay more attention on removing webs to improve our cleanliness.

Gun Owners Action League Rally: Tremendous Turnout!
Well over 1,500 residents of the Commonwealth turned out on a clear but cold day in downtown Boston exercising their First Amendment Right of Free Speech in defense of their Second Amendment Right to Keep and Bear Arms. Several media outlets and helicopters looked on as patriots peaceably formed on the Boston Common and continued with a march to the State House. Folks from Pittsfield to Provincetown made the trek along with homemade signs and banners and a spirit that even the most zealous of anti freedom politicians could not break.
Among the many speakers were GOAL's own Jim Wallace, Jay Beard, Robert Pepi, and Steve Moysey as well as special guests Yang LI, the Second Amendment Foundation's Alan Gottlieb and Illinois State Rifle Association's Rich Pearson. Moysey proudly claimed "I went from British subject to American Citizen!" as Li likened many of the proposals to the actions taken by the Chinese government prior to the Tiananmen Square protests. The call for action echoed to 2nd Amendment supporters throughout New England yesterday as Connecticut enacted severe consequences for citizens simply exercising their rights, with felony charges possible for those who do not register lawfully owned standard capacity magazines.
While the event was a tremendous success, it also underscores the incredible amount of work gun owners in Massachusetts have in the weeks, months, and years ahead. Representative David Linsky (D-Natick) and Governor Deval Patrick have made clear their resolve to criminalize an entire class of law abiding citizens just like Connecticut and will not stop until the 2nd Amendment is rendered dead in the Commonwealth. Bills limiting magazine capacity to an arbitrary 7 rounds will effectively ban an entire class of handguns and a forced insurance mandate proposal will rob both low income families of their right to self defense and anyone whom an insurance company denies coverage. With a tremendous amount of support in both halls of the legislature and certainly in the Governor's office it is imperative to KEEP THE PRESSURE on your State Senator and Representative. Keep up the momentum!
GOAL would like to thank everyone in attendance at Yesterday's rally for their presence and support; we cannot defeat the anti-freedom legislation and politicians without your dedication and participation! Please encourage your friends and family to join GOAL. We are a 100% member funded organization and your voice for 2nd Amendment freedom in Massachusetts.

Hillary Clinton and Her Loyal Superdelegates

While many state delegates at the convention are taking her word to heart, what is happening with those superdelegate holdouts who will vote for Clinton unless she tells them, specifically, to do otherwise?

Cooking with Coffee
Beyond being a beverage, coffee is being used more and more in cooking, and not only in desserts. Used ground as a spice or brewed to substitute for or complete a cooking liquid, coffee can add richness and a burst of flavour to several dishes. By integrating coffee into your cooking, you'll discover a whole new array of aromas.
Here's how to use it.
Ground coffee:
Ground coffee is excellent as a spice on meat and even with fish and seafood . Because it has an intense flavour, we suggest you use it sparingly at first and then add more according to your taste. Ground coffee is particularly good when mixed into a dry rub for grilled meats because the smoked flavour perfectly complements that of the roasted coffee.
A tip: when you cook using ground coffee as a spice, serve a mild and slightly sweet side dish, such as sweet potatoes or pea shoots, to counter-balance the bitter flavour.
Brewed coffee:
Perfect for deglazing or adding to your cooking liquid, brewed coffee will bring a slightly more subtle coffee flavour to your dishes. It is perfect for livening up your soups , sauces , slow-cooked meals and certain oven-roasted meats, such as ham .
Discover our coffee-based recipes here and enjoy!
Bon appétit!

DENISON, TX - Some of Texoma's biggest "Clark Griswold's" gathered at Loy Lake Park tonight, hoping to add some bright new pieces to their own collections of Christmas decorations.
As Loy Lake Park gets ready for the crowds in another night of magical Christmas lights, another crowd gathers in the back of the park, for a unique holiday auction.
Theresa Caudle really really loves Christmas.
"I put up 12 Christmas trees in my house."
So when she heard the Grayson County was auctioning off some of their light displays at Loy Lake Park, she couldn't wait to put in her bids.
"I'm all about Christmas decorations so I think it's great that they were finally able to let go of some of them so some of us not in the business can get the lights," said Caudle.
County officials say the company they buy the displays from has gone out of business, and since they can't trade the older displays in now, they decided to give the public a chance at them, and make a little money to benefit the park.
"I didn't even think I would buy anything,"said Hogenson.
But he did.
Casey Hogenson and his son won the bid on the biggest display up for grabs.
This big bright angel.
He says it feels good knowing he's contributing to the community he loves.
"Grayson County is one of the most solid community minded counties you're going to anywhere in the state, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else," Hogenson said.
