It's been a month since the fatal crash at 18th and Van Dorn.
Inmate driver, Jeremy Dobbe, 35, crashed into 47-year-old Joyce Meeks' car, killing her. Meeks' family have a lot of questions.
"We got to just move forward and try to get the state of Nebraska to show some responsibilities for their actions," Martell Buchanan, Meeks' son, said.
Lancaster County Attorney, Joe Kelly, gave the family a few answers on Wednesday, charging Dobbe with manslaughter in the death of Meeks.
As for the blood and urine tests? Prosecutors said they show Dobbe did not have alcohol or any substances in his system.
In particular, a synthetic marijuana known as K2. Dobbe admitted to taking it when he was in the hospital after the crash.
Court documents said Dobbe was swerving and ran several red lights right before he pummeled into Meeks. 911 calls came in that night, detailing his erratic driving.
"I live at 14th and Van Dorn Street and I just saw a van pass here going, like, probably close to 80 miles an hour," one caller said.
Police estimate Dobbe was driving 90 MPH when he hit Meeks' car and documents show he didn't apply the brakes.
Last week, her family filed a claim against the state
"Giving the keys to an inmate who has a history of convictions for driving is beyond me," Tim Cavanagh, Meeks' family attorney, said. "It's clearly negligent and reckless."
Dobbe does have prior DUI and reckless driving convictions. He's being held at that state's department of Correctional Services.
An arraignment date for Dobbe is set for August 1. If convicted, he faces 1 to 20 years in prison.

You're a what
from past issues
When Tony Oliver was in high school, he and a friend enjoyed muting the television and making funny voices to accompany the onscreen action. One afternoon, his friend's mom told them to stop goofing around, asking, "Do you think anyone will ever pay you for this?" Little did she know that both boys would one day pitch their vocal creativity as professional voice actors.
Voice actors help to bring our favorite cartoon and video game characters to life. They also do voice-overs for radio and television commercials and movie trailers. Even though you don't see them, these actors use the sound of their voice to sell a character's emotions—or an advertised product.
Tony was first introduced to voice acting when he was trying to find work as a stage actor in Los Angeles. He saw a newspaper ad for a voice-acting gig and, after completing that job, was able to land work on numerous similar projects. These jobs were Tony's introduction to a side of show business he hadn't known existed. "In voice acting," he says, "I found this secret enclave of acting you could get paid for that no one knew about."
For professional voice actors like Tony, a busy workday might include multiple recording sessions, each several hours long. Before the session, voice actors meet with the director and are given the script they'll read. Voice actors rarely have an opportunity to read scripts in advance and must be able to produce high-quality material without practicing the lines.
After speaking with the director, a voice actor enters the sound studio where the recording sessions take place. Most studios consist of two rooms: a recording booth and a control room. In the booth, the voice actor, either alone or with other voice actors, reads through the script line by line. The director and a sound engineer listen from the control room and provide feedback between takes.
For most professional voice actors, getting hired requires versatility in addition to a pleasant voice. Most voice actors use a number of voices and accents for various characters. Some actors have enough voices to play multiple roles on the same project.
New voices take work to create. Tony has found that the best inspiration is usually people he overhears. "A lot of creating new voices is mimicry," he says. "Sometimes, you don't even realize what you have until a director gives you a new character and something you've been playing around with pops out of you."
Even after developing new voices, regular practice is essential. Voice actors must be able to re-create or tweak a voice at a director's request. Practice also helps to prevent strained throats and to maintain vocal range. Tony, a trained singer, gives his voice a musical workout almost every day; other voice actors find different ways to practice.
Becoming a successful voice actor, like other jobs in entertainment, requires strong networking skills. The voice-acting community is relatively small and can be difficult to break into. Frequently submitting demo tapes to directors and auditioning for them is vital, especially for newcomers. "It can be hard getting those first few roles," Tony says. "Directors don't want to take a chance on a voice actor they don't know."
Many professional voice actors have also been trained as stage actors. A background in stage acting, although not mandatory, provides performance experience and teaches voice actors how to develop characters. Like stage actors, voice actors create a character for their audience. Unlike stage actors, however, voice actors can't rely on their physical movements or facial expressions to connect with the audience.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics does not specifically track the employment or wages of voice actors. Voice actors are grouped with other types of actors, including those who work on stage, in television, and in motion pictures. Some voice actors also work in these other mediums.
Although opportunities for voice actors are available throughout the country, work is easiest to find where the studios are clustered. Like the rest of the entertainment industry, most voice actors are concentrated in southern California. But many also work in large cities, such as Houston and New York.
Anecdotal information suggests that voice actors are usually paid by the hour. Typical rates for a recording session are between $300 and $500 for the first hour and between $200 and $350 for each subsequent hour. Voice actors working on longer projects might negotiate their own rates.
But voice actors freelance, which means they are self-employed and often have inconsistent work schedules. Some long-term jobs are available to actors voicing a main character in a cartoon show for an entire season or series. In most jobs, however, a voice actor's services may be required for only a single recording session. "When business is booming, you're working all the time," says Tony. "And when it's not, you're on the phone trying to hustle up work."
Still, freelancing allows voice actors to choose the productions and characters they're interested in auditioning for. Tony enjoys this creative freedom. "When work is going well," he says, "I have a lot of control over what's happening in my life."
Being able to make a career out of something he enjoys satisfies Tony. "If it weren't my job, I'd take up acting as a hobby," he says. "I love that I get paid to do something I'd do for free."

Montana's 29th Science Olympiad
The Montana Science Olympiad is devoted to improving the quality of science education, increasing student interest in science and providing recognition for outstanding achievement in science education by both students and teachers. The Science Math Resource Center at Montana State University in Bozeman is hosting Montana's 29th Science Olympiad on Tuesday, November 26, 2013.
The Science Olympiad goals are accomplished through the dedication of Montana Science teachers and parents who organize classroom activities, research, and after school training clubs. A main focus of our competition is to elevate science education and learning to a level of enthusiasm and support that is normally reserved only for varsity sports programs.
The Science Olympiad tournaments are rigorous academic interscholastic competitions that consist of a series of individual and team events. In grades 6-12, Science Olympiad functions much like a football or soccer team, requiring preparation, commitment, coaching and practice throughout the year. Other competitions follow the format of popular board games and TV shows. These challenging and motivational events are well balanced between the various science disciplines of biology, earth science, chemistry, physics, computers and technology. There is also a balance between events requiring knowledge of science facts, concepts, processes, skills and science applications. Click here for the list of 2013 Events that were offered for Division B and C.

City council voted to support a resolution that opposes a proposed Stand Your Ground law in Ohio and a congressional bill for national reciprocity for concealed-carry handgun permits.
The Mahoning Valley Organizing Collaborative, a local community group that advocates for issues related to racial, social and economic justice, had urged council to support the resolution.
Council unanimously voted 7-0 Wednesday in support.
"Current state laws give homeowners more than enough protection," said Councilman Nate Pinkard, D-3rd, chairman of council's safety committee and a retired Mill Creek Metro-Parks police chief.
Youngstown is the latest in the state to pass similar resolutions against this resolution joining Cincinnati, Toledo, Dayton and South Euclid.
MVOC organizer Allan Irizarry-Graves said after the vote the proposed state bill to expand Stand Your Ground targets "young minority males" such as him.
"If I'm walking around my neighborhood on the North Side and someone sees me and feels threatened, they can shoot as they please," said Irizarry-Graves, who is black.
The issue comes after the acquittal of George Zimmerman in July of second-degree murder and manslaughter during a high-profile case in Florida that raised questions about that state's Stand Your Ground law.
The law permits people to use deadly force when they believe there is a perceived threat.
Zimmerman, who is Hispanic, fatally shot Trayvon Martin, an unarmed 17-year-old black male, on Feb. 26, 2012, contending he felt threatened. His defense didn't use the law in winning his acquittal, however.
The Ohio Legislature is considering a bill to expand situations that would permit people to use deadly force.
"There's enough gun violence every day," and there's no need to expand the law, Pinkard said.
In other matters, council failed to approve legislation by emergency measure to authorize the administration to seek proposals from firms to redistrict the city's seven wards.
The vote was 5-2 in favor of the proposal. But for legislation to be approved by an emergency vote, at least six members of council must support it.
The two no votes came from Councilmen Mike Ray, D-4th, and Paul Drennen, D-5th, who said they were satisfied with the redistricting maps provided by Youngstown State University's Center for Urban and Regional Studies.
Council will need to take three votes at three separate meetings to approve the legislation.
Youngstown is one of the safest cities in the country. Don't need SYG here. It would only hurt our tourism business and enrollment at YSU would go down.
I love people who make arguments when there is no correlation whatsoever between "stand your ground" legislation and a reduction in tourism. Forget how it would affect YSU enrollment. Honestly, where do people come up with this crap?!
Southside Res, I believe that Knightcap was being sarcastic. Have another cup of coffee. You must still be asleep.
That's ok I'm still standing my ground .... self defense IS self defense. and we in Ohio have the castle doctrine.... it's funny that NO Major abuses of stand your ground in Florida and it wasn't even used by the Defense yet it's an issue Nationally.
Knightcap I hope your being sarcastic for sure or you are in need of severe rehab!! LOL! The people who don't want it are the ones who someone they know may suffer from it. It's time we give the cockroaches something to think about when they launch their crime career!! Sad part is that that might give them more time to make more baby mamma's
Guns on the streets are the problem and not the answer!
This media-driven fear is getting out of hand.
You hear one story over the course of a year where a teenager is killed, and we don't know the facts, and all of a sudden anyone who carries a firearm is considered dangerous? (In reference to G.Z.... But nobody heard about the 3 black teens illegally carrying a firearm who gunned down a white teenager while he was jogging around the block http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/... )
Here's an idea. Instead of creating new laws time and time again, start enforcing the current laws you have in place. It would be much more efficient and undoubtedly more effective at curbing these brazen acts of violence.
"Let the thugs win for 500, Alex"
Criminals and Y-town council.
What segment of society is against self defense, castle doctrine or a police chase?
It's not the law it's ignorant people's lack of understanding it. Just recently in Florida a man got into a verbal argument with three men next door. He took his pistol, snuck up on them and opened fire. He killed two and shot the third one multiple times. His attorney is arguing that when they verbally threatened him it gave him the right to go onto their property and shoot them. This ignorance of the law is the problem. I even know a guy who says if you see someone walking thru your yard, that under Ohio law you can legally shoot them dead. No provocation is needed, he has stated.
Current state law says that use of deadly force is a last resort. If you have an opportunity to flee, you have to do so. This isn't about home owners. This is about walking in public, and someone attacks you. Stand your ground, would allow you to stand and fight. You have the right to be there and were not looking for trouble so you have the right to defend yourself. It amazes me how people can run out and support something without knowing anything about it.

An Atlanta-based company has responded to a lawsuit filed against the company over spyware.Court documents in a class-action lawsuit against furniture rental company Aaron's Inc. allege spyware installed on rented computers secretly sent more than 185,000 emails back to the company, including some capturing webcam images of naked children and people having sex.
The documents filed Wednesday in federal court in western Pennsylvania say the Atlanta-based rental company hasn't informed at least 800 customers who plaintiffs say were targeted by spyware made by a Pennsylvania company.
Attorneys for the rental customers say the emails sometimes contained pictures secretly taken by the computers' webcams or other sensitive information including Social Security numbers and customer keystrokes.
Aaron's released a statement to CBS Atlanta Wednesday in response to the class action lawsuit:
"Aaron's, Inc. respects our customers' privacy. Not one of our 1,300+ Company-operated stores has used PC Rental Agent or any other product developed by Designerware LLC. The customers referenced in today's filings in the Byrd litigation are customers of certain independently owned and operated Aaron's franchisees and are not customers of Aaron's, Inc. The referenced Designerware emails were caused by actions taken by the certain franchisees, not Aaron's, Inc. Aaron's disagrees with the claims made in the litigation and will defend the litigation vigorously."

2. Life is too short not to have the underwear, the coffee, and the haircut you want.
3. Everyone (including your family, your coworkers, and your best friend) will talk about you behind your back, and you'll talk about them too. It doesn't mean you don't love each other.
4. It's okay to spend money on things that make you happy.
5. Sometimes without fault or reason, relationships deteriorate. It will happen when you're six, it will happen when you're sixty. That's life.

Although normal curry cubes will make a delicious Japanese curry quickly, when you need an instant curry hit, these instant packs are the perfect solution. Just heat up the packet and add to cooked rice for a quick and filling meal. Add a panko breadcrumb coated cutlet and enjoy the classic Japanese Katsu Curry.

---- — Two organizations that favor federal intervention to ensure that NOAA's catch share management system for the groundfishery — now in danger of collapse due to draconian catch limits — does not drive fishermen's quota almost solely into the hands of large-scale boats and corporations is planning a series of workshops to examine how to keep fleet diversity and many of the smaller boats and businesses afloat.
The Northwest Atlantic Marine Alliance and the Penobscot East Resource Center are co-sponsoring the series, which includes one planned for Gloucester, at Maritime Gloucester, 23 Harbor Loop, from 4-7 p.m. this Friday.
The New England Fishery Management Council has voted to develop an amendment to the catch share system, which has been in place since 2010. NOAA's own data has shown that Gloucester's groundfishing fleet alone has fallen from roughly 96 boats to 71 over that time, while catch share systems elsewhere have also yielded consolidation of the industry, with many smaller, independent boats unable to effectively buy or lease quota gobbled up by larger businesses that accumulate more "catch shares."
The Gloucester-based Northeast Seafood Coalition and the Gloucester Fishing Community Preservation Fund have questioned the wisdom of the government's attempting to impose structure on the largely laissez-faire commodification system that is not legally a limited access permit program, or LAPP.
But NAMA and the Penobscot East Resource Center think differently — and have been behind the decision of the New England council to craft ways of ensuring that the diversity of the industry is maintained between large and smaller boats, and between various ports.
For the workshop series, a team of fisheries experts from British Columbia, Nova Scotia, and France will join the region's fishermen and fishing communities to develop alternatives that will ensure a diverse fishing fleet and protect the fish and the fishermen, NAMA and the resource center said in a prepared statement. The groups have titled the workshops the "Who Fishes Matters Tour;" in addition to Gloucester, there will be workshops in Rockport, Maine, Portsmouth, N.H., on Cape Cod and at Point Judith, R.I.
"The tour will engage fishermen and community stakeholders to help avert the next fisheries disaster by shaping a policy known as the Fleet Diversity Amendment, also referred to as Amendment 18," organizers said. "The Fish Locally Collaborative is launching the tour as part of a campaign called 'Who Fishes Matters.'"
The workshops are free and open to the public, and fishing families are encouraged to attend, organizers said.

Perfect Accessory

I installed my unit into an existing entertainment center which was a nicepiece of furniture. The new wide screen TV sits on top now making it likea movie theater. I wish for the price that the recorded crackling device was included.I would suggest adding it to your order to save on shipping it separately.

Ok. All you Donovan McNabb supporters out there. Explain how a Starting Quarterback in the NFL only throws for 39 yards. If you even attempt to answer that question then you are looking at his performance with your heart and not your brain.
7 of 15 for 39 yards and 1 touchdown. AND THE VIKINGS ARE STACKED with Playmakers. Adrian Peterson makes it so that there are more men in the box. There are less DB's playing when ALLDAY is in the game.
When Shanny traded him for a 6th round pick next year and a conditional 6th rounder the following draft, he simply stole those draft picks. Donovan McNabb is simply over the hill. The lighting in the bottle is not there.
Have you ever asked yourself why not one team in the entire NFL would give the Redskins a measly 5th round pick for the Campbell's Soup Spokesperson?
39 yards just answered the question. Time to hang it up old man. The soup is on the stove waiting for you.

The Titans already wowed the Lions with their Music City Miracle impression, but Tennessee didn't stop there today against Detroit. After a Matt Stafford touchdown and successful two-point conversion, Darius Reynaud (who already scored on the punt return) took the kickoff 105 yards into the endzone for the tying score.
With a few more plays like that, Reynaud could end up being the most popular Darius since Darius Rucker of Hootie And The Blowfish fame.

Three months of planning and almost $7,000 later, organizers of the Homeless Hike for the New Life Family Shelter can say it was a good day.
There were 40 people from the community who participated in the 5k fundraiser, 15 of them runners.
Father John Iffert was in charge of the fundraising and Lifeboat Alliance Executive Director Jenny O'Daniel, said the fundraiser was his brainchild.
"He was the one who came up with the Homeless Hike. He was instrumental in making this happen," she said. "[The day] went better than expected. On an event like this, you never know what the weather is going to do, or how many people will show up."
The money for the fundraiser will be used for everything at the New Life Family Shelter, from operational expenses on.
Currently there are 13 guests at the shelter, six women and seven children. The goal of the shelter is to help the guests find gainful employment and housing, and O'Daniel said two of the women had already found jobs and one has found an apartment — the shelter has been open for about one month.
"It's part of a personal goal for me," she said.
O'Daniel said she is thankful for everyone who came to the fundraiser.
"Without all of you, this would not be happening," she told the crow.
Event chair Laurie Fowler said the turnout for the Homeless Hike was great — both in the number of people who showed up to run or walk and the number of volunteer who assisted in the operations.
She said the fundraiser hit their goal of funds raised by sponsors, which was almost $4,000. The individual who raised the most was Iffert and the youth group who raised the most was from St. Mary Grade School.
"We had great support from the community," Fowler said. "It was asking for a lot for people to donate in November, but people really stepped up and did it."

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

A montage showing of StarCraft II's first year on how successful it has become. StarCraft: Brood War is highly known for being a very successful game in South Korea, some people might even say that it was South Korea's national sport. But it was as popular in rest of the world. But this video shows how big StarCraft II has become not just as a game, but as an eSport around the world. This is just the first year, and many more great years to come! I don't take credit for making this video. This video was made by a person known as LaxxSC, all credit goes to him/her and not me.

The Psychiatric Interview in Clinical Practice,
Second Edition
Roger A. MacKinnon, M.D., Robert Michels, M.D., and Peter J. Buckley, M.D.2006679 pages
ISBN 978-1-58562-395-2Paperback
Item #62395
New perspectives on psychopathology often emphasize descriptive phenomenological approaches and encourage psychiatric interviewing that is overly focused on describing symptoms and establishing diagnoses. The Psychiatric Interview in Clinical Practice stresses that the clinician needs to learn about patients, their problems, their illness, and their lives. From this readers will understand the universal presence of personality types and the importance of the personality as a determining factor in the unfolding of the psychiatric interview.
Students learning psychiatry often ask, "But what do I say to the patient?" In 20 new and updated chapters, The Psychiatric Interview answers that question by using clinical vignettes from the authors' everyday work, what they said in a wide variety of clinical situations and what they felt and thought that led them to say it. Specifically this new edition includes,
Although The Psychiatric Interview in Clinical Practice is about psychiatric interviewing, many readers will likely recognize aspects of themselves in some of the clinical descriptions. The hope is that this self-recognition will lead to greater self-understanding and self-acceptance as well as to greater understanding and acceptance of others. The clinical examples are about real people, including the authors themselves, their friends, students, and patients. The authors selected situations or traits that are so common and typical that nearly all readers would be able to relate to them.
The Psychiatric Interview in Clinical Practice promises to be an enjoyable read as well as a tremendous learning experience for trainees in all of the mental health professions, from medical students and psychiatric residents to psychologists, social workers, and nurses.
"This book is a must-read for anyone interested in human relationships and mental disorders."—Thomas F. Anders, M.D., Distinguished Professor Emeritus, Dept of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, UC Davis M.I.N.D. Institute; President, American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
"The scope of this text is far greater than the clinical interview. The authors include in their chapters detailed discussions of differential diagnosis that go well beyond the descriptive characteristics on which most discussions are based. They also incorporate vignettes that reflect psychotherapeutic strategies. In this regard, the book is also useful in teaching psychotherapy to beginning trainees. . . . Readers who spend time dipping into this volume will be richly rewarded with the wealth of clinical wisdom in its pages."—Glen O. Gabbard, M.D., Brown Foundation Chair of Psychoanalysis and Professor of Psychiatry, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas
