The Bay County Sheriff's Office has released the results of the examination of the remains of a cat that was discovered in the Bay Point area on September 9, 2013. The examination was conducted by Dr. Rhonda Windham of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
The preliminary results indicate that "the torn appearance of exposed soft tissues and the absence of the majority of the carcass may be consistent with being attacked by a predator." The report also indicates that "Pending DNA results may confirm which predatory species; however the absence of predatory DNA does not rule out a predatory attack."
Sheriff McKeithen stated, "We respect Dr. Windham's expert opinion in this matter, and appreciate the ASPCA's willingness to conduct this examination. However, we cannot rely solely on opinions in our investigation. Due to the fact that we have been unable to definitively determine the cause of death, our investigation into this matter will remain open."
Further results of DNA testing will be released upon receipt. A copy of the preliminary examination results are attached.

Learn about the 2013 awardees for the NHGRI Intramural Research Award
Researchers have discovered a new genetic association and innovative way of identifying genes involved in coronary artery calcification, a leading cause of heart disease and death. The team�led by the National Human Genome Research Institute�used a combination of RNA, DNA and protein analysis to identify the gene,�TREML4.�They�learned about its biological role in the condition and demonstrated an alternative approach to large genome-wide association studies for discovering disease-associated genes. Their paper, "Integrative DNA, RNA, and Protein Evidence Connects�TREML4�to Coronary Artery Calcification," appeared in the July 3, 2014, online issue of the�American Journal of Human Genetics.

In a new study in the April 10, online issue of Cell, NIH scientists, including NHGRI's Pamela Schwartzberg, M.D., Ph.D., describe an approach to modeling and predicting human immune responses to influenza vaccination based on the state of the immune system before immunization. The findings provide a framework for identifying factors that influence people's immune responses, which potentially may be used to optimize treatment.

Sometimes black and white are all you need. The striking contrast of the two color extremes is at once both sophisticated, modern, and clean. Our Ms. thinks it's an impossible to mess up fashion and decor solution!
When relying on such a stark contrast, shape becomes everything. This Planet Chrome and Black Possini Euro Pendant Chandelier has a strikingly eye-catching metal framework on a sizable 31 1/2" wide scale. Ms. Black & White loves showcasing it in her entry area to set the scene.
The corner of the living room won't be ignored with this Holtkoetter Satin White and Satin Nickel Tripod Floor Lamp. This beauty boasts a hand-blown satin white glass shade and a dimming system to help set the mood.
Mercury glass is lovely, but black Mercury glass can take a room to another level of sophistication. Ms. Black & White loves the unique look of the Modern Flynn Mercury Black Table Lamp with it's Reactive finish glass body.
A bold black and white pattern, like this Bold Black Stripe Brushed Nickel Triple Pendant, can make any piece downright show-stopping! By hanging this light fixture over her dining table, our Ms. adds a pop of interest in an unexpected place.
This Typhoon Contemporary White Desk with its clean, modern lines would be equally at home in the office or the foyer as a table. Perfect for Ms. Black & White to organize her mail and keys!
One of the sleekest ceiling fans she's ever seen, Ms. Black & White couldn't resist adding a little airflow to her living room with the 3-blade Casa Metro LED Energy Efficient Matte Black Ceiling Fan!
The double shade on the Possini Euro Nickel Double Drum White Ceiling Light diffuses the best light. Our Ms. loves the way it casts a glow in her hallway.

The Andaz Amsterdam was designed by hotel design extraordinaire Marcel Wanders. The Dutch designer infused an old library situated on the "Prince Canals" of Amsterdam with whimsy and cultural character of the surrounding upscale community.
Bold graphics and sculptural furniture are paired together throughout the hotel to create some jaw dropping spaces. Each room is like a gallery of modern art.
Bold colors and strong lines contrast beautifully with the crisp white linens. Incorporating color is always a great way to add that final splash of character. It's like a cherry on top! Add some to your home with colorful pendant lighting!
Light and sculpture create a very dynamic statement. You can create this wow factor in your own home with the selection of the perfect sculptural floor lamp.
This light installation blows our minds! It's the perfect combination of a modern crystal chandelier and modern art.
It's always a great feeling to walk off the street when traveling and into a fairy tale setting. This is exactly what happens inside Andaz Amsterdam.

All that commuting, all that polluting. Let's face it, the greenest work space in the world is the one right down the hall: your home office.
So we at Euro Style Lighting decided to envision what we like to call a 40/3 work week. That is, the standard five day/forty hour work week, but with three of the five days worked from home. Such a work week roughly translates into a 60% reduction in an individual's carbon commuting footprint…or as we like to think of it, an excellent excuse to work in your pajamas.
Best of all, the 40/3 work week gives us a chance to daydream about just how our home office is going to look. Working at home, you can transform any room into an office. If you're in a loft, best to make it a corner office:
Remember this is your personal workspace. No sharing needed, so style it wildly. Keep things open to make so that it's a free-flowing idea space:
For the home office, go personal and do away with all the usual suspects. Choose flat files over regular, vintage over mainstream, stationary stores over office supply stores:
To keep things open and maximize space, furnish it with only the bare essentials. Choose floor lamps or a torchiere for general illumination. Adjustable task lamps add a functional chic look:
Kichler Graphite Energy Efficient Desk Lamp
Use a small desk or table. Console tables are not nearly as deep as desks and work well in shallow spaces (such as my 3' x 6' walk-in closet office which I absolutely adore):
Frameo Driftwood Console Table
Finish your space off with a laptop or tablet and you're ready to start working!
Building a home office requires as much or as little space as you have and consumer technology has advanced to such a point that it is small enough and affordable enough to enable telecommuting by the majority of office-bound Americans. Yet most of us still spend hours a week behind the wheel of a car to and from work..
Perhaps it's time we re-consider.

Orange is one of those colors that took me some getting used to the idea of decorating with. It's so bold and bright! Which can be a very good thing. Little pops of orange can really make a room or space a bit more cheery without having to invest in buying a whole new room. I have a tendency to keep my rooms a little boring and neutral. Hello grey! But with just a touch of a color like orange, you can transform a room. It's fantastic!
This airy kitchen has the perfect amount of orange. The bright orange chairs really pop in the space and are really a focal point which is kind of perfect. There are a few orange accents in the cupboards as well and in other places to help bring it all together. I love it!

This lamp is awesome. It has a kind of industrial feel because of its design and shape, but it's also fun and cheery because of the white and orange. It would look fantastic in a space in need of a little character! The tray is a great piece to have on a end table to catch random items or to serve drinks to guests. Again, the orange is so much fun and a total eye catcher! And this orange tribal print pillow looks great with the grey and helps to tone it down slightly so it will work with the rest of the room. Isn't it a great pillow?

Now that warmer weather has finally arrived, so has the ritual of spending hours upon hours outside. In fact, families today don't just go outdoors to play, they create stylish outdoor living.
I love the concept of outdoor living (especially since its only 3 three short months for me). Things like eating meals, cozying up on a couch with a good book and even watching a movie outside are family favorites.
Creating a space to have these memorable and relaxing outdoor moments is fun. I love the bohemian look pictured above. There is cozy seating for adults which blends naturally and beautifully with the tepee for kids to hide out in (talk about fun).
If you are looking to create some ambiance or spruce up your outdoor dining space why not add modern lighting? You can always use outdoor lights but using lights intended for inside adds an unexpected element and makes the space all the more special.
Don't forget to add seating for the little ones. Although there are many options for great outdoor furniture these days, using regular play chairs (pictured above) is charming. Little ones love anything that comes in their size.
So grab a few things from inside to take outside, add some lighting and cozy seating, get the grill going and have a happy and stylish summer!

A step backward for non-English speakers
Original post made by R.S. on Sep 9, 2006
P.S. -- In researching this, I found an article printed in a Gilroy newspaper that says Measure A contains a number of "brazenly" false statements designed to mislead voters. I wonder why the Palo Alto papers haven't printed this yet.
Web Link
on Sep 9, 2006 at 9:02 pm
Three cheers for Drekmeier. Only citizens can vote and you need to know English to be a citizen. Let's seal the borders!
on Sep 11, 2006 at 1:10 am
The advocates for Measure A were gathering signatures to qualify for the ballot. The singatures did not have to be from a certain race- just registered to vote. Election materials are multi-lingual and prepared by the County so R.S. should not confuse qualifying for the ballot versus the actual ballot and accompanying materials. It is called democracy. Put it on the ballot and let people vote.
on Sep 14, 2006 at 12:50 pm
I'd be interested in knowing whether Drekmeier & Company did any kind of outreach on this ballot measure in the Latino community? It would seem that he gathered signatures only in lilly white areas like Palo Alto. One would hope that he and his team believe (and practice) diversity.

text: (WGR 550) -- Still with one roster spot available many were wondering what position the Buffalo Bills would address it with. Thanks to an injury suffered during the first week of practice, the Bills will be using that vacancy on another kicker. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Bills are going to sign free agent kicker Dan Carpenter to an undisclosed contract. The move is in response to a groin injury suffered by Bills rookie kicker Dustin Hopkins during Monday's practice according to the report. Carpenter lost the kicking competition with the Miami Dolphins during training camp to rookie Caleb Sturgis. He then signed with the Arizona Cardinals, only to be cut four days later on August 25. Then on August 28 Carpenter signed with the New York Jets, only to be released again on Saturday, August 31. In five years with the Dolphins, Carpenter made 81.9-percent of his 155 field goal attempts with a long of 60 yards back in 2010. The 27-year old had a visit scheduled with the Cleveland Browns but cancelled in order to fill the Bills' current void. If the signing becomes official, the Bills will have a full 53 players on their active roster. Twitter: @JoeBuscaglia

Historic Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing Today on Respect for Marriage Act
July 20, 2011
Today, the Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a historic hearing on the Respect for Marriage Act, which would repeal the so-called Defense of Marriage Act and restore the rights of all lawfully married couples—including same-sex couples—to receive the benefits of marriage under federal law. The bill also provides same-sex couples with certainty that federal benefits and protections would flow from a valid marriage celebrated in a state where such marriages are legal, even if a couple moves or travels to another state.Continue Reading ►

The Department of Biology offers students several degree options depending on interest and long-term career goals. Four Bachelor of Science degrees are offered: biology, environmental biology, medical technology, and molecular biology/biotechnology. The major requirements for all degrees are similar in the first two years, allowing students to switch between degree options and to readjust career objectives. All degrees are designed to prepare the student for success in the job market or pursuing advanced studies. For those students interested in a career in teaching, the Biology Department offers a secondary education-biology degree and a secondary education-general science degree through the Department of Education. Also available is a Teaching Certificate in Environmental Education for grades K-12.
The Biology Department offers a variety of programs in the health careers including pre-medical, pre-veterinary, pre-chiropractic, and pre-dental. The necessary training to pursue other careers in the health sciences is also available through the Pre-Professional Program. Students more interested in ecology may choose the ecology and evolutionary biology concentration within the biology B.S. degree, or they may choose from concentrations in terrestrial ecology or freshwater ecology within the environmental biology degree.
Two minors, with options in either molecular/Cellular/Organismal Biology or ecology/evolutionary biology are available to non-majors interested in a more in-depth study of these aspects of biology. There is also an opportunity for students to continue their education within the Biology Department by pursuing a Master of Science degree in biology. There are thesis and non-thesis options as well as an environmental science concentration offered cooperatively through both the Department of Biology and the Department of Anthropology, Geography, and Earth Science (AGES). Whatever the degree or interest, the faculty in the Biology Department are committed to helping students reach their professional goals.
Clarion students can receive a Bachelor of Science in one of six programs or concentrations:
Molecular Biology and Biotechnology
Environmental Biology
Biology with a concentration in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
Medical Technology

Have you seen this yet? A billboard on the North Side is causing quite the ruckus.
A FOX 32 News viewer sent in a photo of the billboard located at Broadway and Bryn Mawr, and it went up more than a week ago. The giant sign appears to be an advertisement for urinary incontinence in women.
Doctor Charles Feinstein, who works in the urology department at Weiss Memorial Hospital, paid for it.
He told FOX 32 urinary incontinence is an important issue that needs to be addressed, because it's the main reason women are admitted to nursing homes.

Ben Leber contract already set to be a Viking Monday!!
The Vikings haven't won any regular-season titles in a while. But once again they are the undisputed offseason champions, with an NFL-high $24 million in salary cap space.
With the blessing of owner Zygi Wilf to build a Super Bowl contender, Minnesota is poised to be a major player in free agency, especially with roughly half the teams in the league struggling to get under the salary cap.
The influence of Rob Brzezinski, the Vikings' vice president of football operations, appears as strong as ever. With the exception of cornerbacks Antoine Winfield and Fred Smoot, Minnesota has been leery of investing too heavily in players from other teams and engaging in bidding wars with other clubs.
The Vikings also generally avoid the most high-profile free agents.
This year could be an exception.
Minnesota could land some superstar players in their primes at discounted salaries because so many teams are up against the 2006 salary cap.
Here's a look at the Vikings' needs and some top prospects, in order of importance.
Minnesota was high on Maurice Morris, Shaun Alexander's backup in Seattle, early last week. But with little progress made toward ratification of the collective bargaining agreement, the Vikings realized they could get much more for much less.
The plum they could be eyeing: four-time Pro Bowl running back Edgerrin James.
With a glut of talented rookies and veterans, James might not get the blockbuster contract he covets. But here's an X-factor: Brzezinski and agent Drew Rosenhaus have done several deals and have respect for each other, based partly on their Miami ties.
James is unlikely to agree to a multiyear deal if he isn't satisfied with the signing bonus, so he might be inclined to audition for one year with Minnesota.
Baltimore's Chester Taylor also would be a good fit. But the Ravens are aggressively trying to re-sign him, and the Seahawks are taking the same approach with Alexander.
So far, the Vikings have shown no interest in Jamal Lewis, who isn't the ideal fit for a West Coast offense.
Morris, however, remains an attractive option to Minnesota.
The Vikings realize this is the weakest position on their roster, and they are aggressively addressing it. The buzz around the NFL is that Minnesota has already agreed in principle on a multiyear deal with outside linebacker Ben Leber, who played the past four seasons for the San Diego Chargers. Leber could land a $7 million signing bonus and a contract that averages $4 million a year, a whopping figure for a player with 212 career tackles.
But Leber is big (6 feet 3, 244 pounds) and athletic, and Fran Foley, the Vikings' vice president of player personnel, knows him well from their days with the Chargers.
Leber, however, might not be Minnesota's last foray into free agency at linebacker. While the Vikings would like to add a veteran to the middle, the current crop of players is modest, headed by three veterans (Sam Cowart, Derek Smith and restricted free agent Matt Wilhelm) who aren't known for their range and speed.
Two cover two middle linebackers available are Rob Morris and Rocky Calmus, former teammates with the Indianapolis Colts.
Minnesota could get a bargain at weak-side linebacker. The top player at that spot is Will Witherspoon, a standout for the Carolina Panthers. But he could be very expensive  commanding a signing bonus of more than $12 million  and it's unclear if the Vikings would pay that much. Players who could come at a discount include Julian Peterson, David Thornton and Akin Ayodele.
A few years ago, Peterson was one of the NFL's most dominant linebackers. But injuries have slowed him, and he could thrive with a change of scenery.
The Vikings apparently have targeted guards who also can play center, an indication they don't want to be caught in a situation such as last year's, when they had to scramble right before the season to land Melvin Fowler in a trade after Pro Bowl center Matt Birk was lost for the season.
Minnesota has signed Jason Whittle, formerly of the New York Giants, and has expressed interest in Pro Bowl guard/center LeCharles Bentley, who disputed published reports that he has agreed to a deal with the Philadelphia Eagles. He told the New Orleans Times-Picayune on Friday that he planned to sign with the Eagles as early as Monday, when free agency is scheduled to open.
Bentley of the New Orleans Saints and Steve Hutchinson of the Seahawks are the only elite guards available in free agency, and both will command signing bonuses of at least $10 million. But during his short tenure Vikings coach Brad Childress has emphasized the importance of the offensive and defensive lines several times. To that end, Minnesota could make a strong push to sign Hutchinson or Bentley.
There also have been reports that the Vikings are interested in restricted free agents Kris Dielman (Chargers) and Sean Mahan (Tampa Bay Buccaneers).
But the best fit might be Toniu Fonoti, who was acquired in a trade last season. Fonoti, though, wants to test the market and try to land a lucrative deal.
Two other veterans worth watching are Ross Tucker and Stephen Neal, both of whom played for the New England Patriots last season.
So far, Minnesota hasn't been very proactive in trying to re-sign Paul Edinger. Perhaps that's because the market for veteran kickers is so deep. The marquee names are Adam Vinatieri and Mike Vanderjagt. More reasonably priced options might be longtime Green Bay Packers kicker Ryan Longwell or Matt Bryant, a Buccaneer last season.
Although the Vikings re-signed Willie Offord, they can't bank on him to start opposite Darren Sharper next season. Offord is coming off major knee surgery and has shown only flashes in his four NFL seasons.
Signing a proven veteran at a modest salary to compete with Offord would appear to make sense. Players who could interest Minnesota are Lawyer Milloy, Marlon McCree, Lance Schulters, Tank Williams and Ifeanyi Ohalete.
Another intriguing option is Dexter Jackson, who played for new Vikings defensive coordinator Mike Tomlin with the Buccaneers. Although Jackson is a free safety, the two positions are interchangeable in many ways in the cover two defense.
Rumors persist that quarterback Daunte Culpepper is being shopped, which means Minnesota could be in the market for a quarterback. Drew Brees in the class of the field, and he too has ties to Foley. But, just like Culpepper, Brees is coming off a serious injury. Other than Brees, anyone else would walk into Winter Park as Brad Johnson's backup.
Last year, the Vikings made a run at Packers defensive end Aaron Kampman. But they haven't shown any interest this year, apparently confident with their defensive line depth. But at the right price, Minnesota gladly would upgrade at any position, including receiver, especially if Koren Robinson isn't re-signed.
The collective bargaining agreement could determine the Vikings' success in free agency. Without an extension, Minnesota would be one of about a dozen teams with plenty of salary cap space, which is needed to sign top-tier players. Signing bonuses can be spread only over four years, which means the cap impact will be immediate for clubs.
Without a CBA deal, today could become Bloody Sunday, with teams scrambling to get below the $94.5 million salary cap by purging their roster of proven players. With the ultimate buyer's market, the Vikings could be very selective about whom to sign and even land stars to one-year deals as they prepare for 2007, when there would be no salary cap.
If there is a deal, Minnesota would lose that advantage and have to compete with more teams for the elite players.
"SSSMMMOOTTT" & "Toine" will be the best CB combo in the NFL next year TRUST ME!!!
Re: Ben Leber contract already set to be a Viking Monday!!
To me though that contract is a little high for his caliber(6yrs. 24mil. with a 7mil. signing bonus) but i agree he's a big guy at 6'3 244lbs that's the perfect type of LB we need here in Minny. A LB that's fast athletic and physical.

Re: Ben Leber contract already set to be a Viking Monday!!
Hmm...that does sound a bit high...and athletic LB's aren't necessarily the best. Let's see what he's got between the ears. I think he might have the potential to be a good Cover 2 LB, but we'll see.
At safety, I would actually like to see Chavous come back. I like the guy. He's a smart player and I don't really see what the problem is.
We definitely need some improvement at the guard spot. 'Nuff said. We all know that our two guards leave a lot to be desired.
This looks to be one exciting offseason. As long as 'Pep doesn't get traded, it should be an enjoyable one, too.

Re: Ben Leber contract already set to be a Viking Monday!!
hey singer i know this is off topic but i found one of those things that is in your avatar and it is my good luck charm.
Re: Ben Leber contract already set to be a Viking Monday!!
I still say we get Ray Lewis. Hes a monster. And an experienced Middle Linebacker along with Darren Sharper will give us some veteren leadership on our defense.
Only thing is i dont know if he would fit into the Tampa Cover 2...Yea.

Re: Ben Leber contract already set to be a Viking Monday!!
It sounds good. The money may be to much for that LB. At S I would really like to see Dexter Jackson in here. He already knows the system and has excelled at it, who better to bring in than that? I would really love to see the Vikes get Edgerrin James, the guy is a beast, and what we need behind QB.
Now on to the QB position. This whole scenario with Pepp and Childress is what concerns me. Pepp is coming back from a horrible injury, one in which we have no idea if he can come completely back from. If Drew Brees proves to be healthy, I say go for him. Brees is better suited for the WCO than Pepp is. We know whatever team goes after Brees their team doctors will be looking him over making sure the investment isn't for nothing.
Now with all that said. ESPN has said that there is talks that something can be agreed upon with the CBA. All I know is that these idiots better not delay FA again because they don't know how to talk and get crap straigtened out. I personally would like to see NO DEAL made so we have leverage... On the other hand, another team that is right there with us in cap space is the Cheese. Now if there is a deal made then it comes down to which team has a better chance to win the SB next season. I think we hold that over the packers..
Re: Ben Leber contract already set to be a Viking Monday!!
Maybe Tomkin and Childress see something about Leber that we don't know about.
With those kind of signing numbers, tells me they want him to be a starter.....
Let the Games Begin.....

Swimming and Diving Opens Season at All-Florida Invite
FORT MYERS, Fla. – The four-time defending Coastal Collegiate Swimming Association (CCSA) Champion FGCU women's swimming & diving team officially opens its 2012-13 campaign at the three-day All-Florida Invitational, beginning on Friday at the Stephen C. O'Connell Center in Gainesville.
Hosted by the Florida Gators, who finished 10th at the NCAA National Championships, the meet showcases the state's best collegiate talent and will provide an early barometer of where the teams match up. Florida, Florida State, FGCU, Miami, Rollins, FAU, Nova Southeastern and UNF will all compete at this year's invitational. The Eagles have competed in this event the past two years and have placed fourth or higher, with their highest finish (3rd) coming last season.
The three-time CCSA Coach of the Year Neal Studd welcomes back 26 student-athletes from last year's squad, including one mid-major All-American, five CCSA All-Conference honorees and two who competed in the 2012 Summer Olympics.
Sophomore Emma Svensson (Upsala, Sweden/Celsiusskolan) returns to the team after being named a Mid-Major All-American by CollegeSwimming.com and received CCSA All-Conference honors last season. Svensson was the first swimmer in program history to qualify for the NCAA Division I Swimming and Diving Championships, competing in the 50 free, 100 free and 100 back competitions.
Senior Danielle Beaubrun (Vieux Fort, St. Lucia/The Bolles School) and sophomore Karen Vilorio (Tegucigalpa, Honduras/Elvel School) both competed for their home countries at the 2012 Summer Olympics this offseason and coach Studd was the coach for St. Lucia as well.
Leading the team are seniors Jamie Akenberger (Bowling Green, Ohio/Bowling Green HS/BGSU), Beaubrun, Shannon Blizzard (Jacksonville, Fla./Stanton College Prep HS), Maegan Butler (Orangeburg, N.Y./Tappan Zee HS/FAU), Eva Lehtonen (Rochester Hills, Mich./Rochester Adams HS/Florida), Mandy Melymuka (Niagara Fall, Ontario/Harry Ainlay HS), Caitlin Pine (Chesapeake, Va./Great Bridge HS), Kristen Potter (Rockledge, Fla./Rockledge HS), and Regina Rodriguez (Mexico City, Mexico/The Bolles School).
Juniors McKenzie Cassidy (Lehigh Acres, Fla./Bishop Verot HS), Lindsey Meeder (Boynton Beach, Fla./Park Vista HS), Jessica Porter (Chorleywood, Hertforshire, United Kingdom/Royal Masonic) and Christina Tanninen (Burlington, Ontario/Nelson) also add some veteran leadership to this year's team.
Newcomers to the team include freshmen Sara Hamilton (Stonehaven, Scotland/Stonehaven), Julie Leth-Espensen (Vanloese, Copenhagen, Denmark), Jennifer Morgan (Edmonton, Canada/Harry Ainlay HS), Samantha Rahael (Trinidad & Tobago/The Bolles School), Kellie Roedig (Huntingdon Valley, Pa./Abington Senior HS), Meghan McGuirk (Hightstown, N.J./Peddie School) and two transfers in Megan Wolfe (Sebring, Fla./Sebring HS/Daytona State College) and Heather Coutts (Jacksonville, Fla./Bishop Kenny HS/Houston). This incoming class was ranked the 18th best recruiting class in the nation by CollegeSwimming.com.
Results and recap will be available at www.FGCUAthletics.com at the conclusion of each day. Fans can also get updates from the team through twitter @FGCUSwimandDive.

17 million people are last-minute shoppers. Most of them manage to finish on Christmas Eve, but there are some stragglers still hitting the stores on Christmas.Luckily, at least one neighborhood store stays open for them.Where do procrastinators go when most of the stores are closed on Christmas Day?"I'm sneaking into Walgreens..they have great gifts and discount prices."And the drug store is open. It's also busy. Larita White is not the only one here."I'm picking up some last minute things for a couple of people I forgot," she said.The neighborhood drug store off 51st Avenue and Indian School Road has something for everyone."..I have perfumes for my oldest daughter..some slippers."Gabriela Mendoza's husband is in the hospital, so there was no time to shop until today."I wanted to come and get something for the kids and thankfully, they are open. I went to two different Wal-Marts and they were closed..oh my God, I need to get them something," she said.A lot of people needed to pick up last-minute gifts. "I am buying for a couple..my nieces and nephews..some toys," said Wendell Moore.Not every shopper was here to buy last-minute gifts. Some were here to purchase batteries.They carry them in all shapes and sizes. A relief for the Monteveras family. They have them now and are heading home.According to retail studies, 30 percent of last-minute shoppers head to drug stores that usually stock items like gift cards from dozens of retailers.

Sample Reviews
A+ I've been going to Dr. to. Insurance has always been handled for me without an issues. My children also go to this office and the doctor is very kid friendly. I would recommend this office to anyone."
I had a first appointment that I had to cancel 24 hours in advance due to another dental emergency. I was looking forward to meeting Dr. 48 hours notice or else they get charged.This is an extremely unprofessional way to talk to a patient. I will take my business elsewhere.She was willing not to charge me" this time"."
.I was a patient at this practice from 2002 until the beginning of Sept. 2013 when I decided to go elsewhere for dental services. Dr. K said it was just a matter of buffing it out (or something to that effect). I go for quarterly cleanings because I have problems with staining. After having the composites done the problem became much worse and I expressed my concern on multiple visits. Her enthusiasm for trying to fix the issues quickly waned and nothing was done. I asked to speak with her privately during my last appt. in June. I reiterated how dissatisfied I was and that my friends had noticed the discoloration. She suggested I get some new friends!!. She then checked my record to see when I had the composites done. She confirmed it was in 2008. She said that was a long time ago and no wonder I was dissatisfied. Her solution was for me to have the composites done a 2nd time when I had been dissatisfied since day one. I have never been treated with such rudeness and disrespect by a healthcare professional. I continued going to her practice because of one of her dental hygienists, Holly, who is excellent. I learned far more about dental health from her than I ever did from Dr. K or any other dentist for that matter. When I had my first appointment with my new dentist he offered to
I have moderate to severe gum disease and needed tissue grafting done. Dr. I found everyone in the office to be very professional and knowledgeable. I'm going to need this procedure done a few more times in other spots in my mouth and after this first experience I don't have much anxiety about doing it again!
All procedures were done on same side of mouth. Although I did need several shots to get me numb Dr. want an excellent Periodontics/Gum Care Dentist you will not find anyone better. They always give me all their attention and no running to answer phones, etc."
He did an implant years ago and he does a good job of maintaining my oral health care. They are very good. I will continue to see him."
Of all the professionals I've gone to over the years, Dr. needed to perform three different procedures for me, and each time he would call that evening to make sure everything was going OK. The process went exactly as he described it would, and he was very accurate about the amount of time needed for recuperating (and the amount of pain to expect!). I felt like I was in good hands, and that he really cared about my outcome. Dental surgery is not something people look forward to, but if it has to be done, Dr. "
The front office was short staffed. When I was finally called to the back, the hygienist took my bitewing xrays and told me the Dentist would be there soon to clean my teeth because it was just her and him. She already had a patient she needed to get to. So the Dentist, who was already busy, came to my chair. He was friendly and chatty but never once did he look at my xrays or ask me about my dental care/health. Now I was 6 months overdue for my cleaning and if anything, I would expect a few extra minutes to clean my teeth. Instead, he glided his pic across my teeth and said my teeth were pretty good. Cleaned a couple of my bottom teeth, flossed and polished within 10 minutes. Did not even rinse my mouth til the very end. Did not check for pockets or chart any findings on my teeth. I have a resin filling in one tooth that it seemed as though he was trying to pull it loose and said it needed to be replaced. He wanted me to come back. I was so upset with this shoddy service, I got up from my chair where the assistant insisted I stayed in it so she can make me an appointment. I insisted they credit my insurance for this visit so I can go elsewhere and get it done right. We came to an agreement to not charge for the cleaning, but I was still charged for the shoddy exam."
He does an excellent job. I'm going to him for a number of years. He does good work. He is very friendly. It's easy to get an appointment."

When Life Gives You Lemonade, Conservatives Make Lemons
by Charles Lemos, Wed Jul 07, 2010 at 06:59:21 PM EDT
Apparently random acts of kindness are too much for conservatives. Acts of simple humanity are unbearable to them. Such the only conclusion one can draw from Terry Savage's column in the Chicago Sun Times where she rushes to monetize acts of kindness.
Last week, I was in a car with my brother and his fiancee, driving through their upscale neighborhood on a hot summer day. At the corner, we all noticed three little girls sitting at a homemade lemonade stand.
We follow the same rules in our family, and one of them is: Always stop to buy lemonade from kids who are entrepreneurial enough to open up a little business.
My brother immediately pulled over to the side of the road and asked about the choices.
The three young girls -- under the watchful eye of a nanny, sitting on the grass with them -- explained that they had regular lemonade, raspberry lemonade, and small chocolate candy bars.
Then my brother asked how much each item cost.
"Oh, no," they replied in unison, "they're all free!"
I sat in the back seat in shock. Free? My brother questioned them again: "But you have to charge something? What should I pay for a lemonade? I'm really thirsty!"
His fiancee smiled and commented, "Isn't that cute. They have the spirit of giving."
That really set me off, as my regular readers can imagine.
"No!" I exclaimed from the back seat. "That's not the spirit of giving. You can only really give when you give something you own. They're giving away their parents' things -- the lemonade, cups, candy. It's not theirs to give."
I pushed the button to roll down the window and stuck my head out to set them straight.
"You must charge something for the lemonade," I explained. "That's the whole point of a lemonade stand. You figure out your costs -- how much the lemonade costs, and the cups -- and then you charge a little more than what it costs you, so you can make money. Then you can buy more stuff, and make more lemonade, and sell it and make more money."
It is their obsession to monetize everything that has brought us to this juncture. Where once there was a commons, a respect for that which belongs to all of us, conservative ideology has craved up the planet into private enclosures and if they could they monetize the very air we breathe, they would. The irony is that free market ain't free as both the financial crises and the Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico prove.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Please keep looking if your child has any academic struggles. I agree that the last principal did a much better job. We have even had a few issues with our child being bullied by the class teacher. Parent involvement/notifications are extremely poor.
Linden Hill is a phenomenal school! The Principal is phenomenal & so is the Assistant Principal. They are very supportive of their staff & of the PTA. They both care very much for their students that attend LHE. Every morning they stand outside & greet EVERY SINGLE student with a smile (& usually calls each of the children by name & says something to each child as well) to walk inside the doors of the school. The Admin. & staff has done a terrific job to make sure that bullying does not happen & made sure that LHE is a safe school to attend. The students & families are very happy to be at the LHE. If an issue does arise, the Principal addresses immediately, but in a caring manner. Linden Hill has an active PTA with a Board who is open to trying new things.The money raised is put directly back into the school, fun school programs, the students' needs, etc. Parents are supportive of the needs of the PTA as well & help when the PTA has events at the school. The school is staffed with many fantastic teachers that are caring, go above & beyond & don't stop working when the bell rings. The teachers come up with fun & innovative ways to teach the kids! Linden Hill is full of Lion Pride!
The school is fast going downhill. The new Principal is not as dynamic as the previous one. She's not able to connect with the students or parents. Only parents of kids who are strongly involved get more opportunities . Unfair treatment is becoming the norm. North Star in the same area is becoming a more prominent establishment. Do not move here if you are moving for a good school. Not worth it!! Your kid will be better off in another school..
I heard it's a great school, but i am very disappointed with it after we moved here. The facility was very old, most of the teachers and staffs don't answer (reply) my question in a timely manner or never answer (reply) to my questions. The extra curriculum program choices seemed not open to everyone, and/or seemed not fair at all,the programs are very poorly organized. But friends told me if I'm not satisfied with this school, I won't be satisfied with other schools in the district........ WOW, I have nothing else to say then.
I'm not a parent but I'm a student who used to go to Linden Hill. I think Linden Hill is an amazing and great school. The teachers are great at pushing kids to go beyond from where they are and to keep learning. Thanks to Mrs. Brayant, Mrs.Fong, Mrs. Peyser, Mrs.Shenoy, Mrs.Moes and Mrs. Gregor, and Mr.Sark! Thank you so much for teaching me all i know know.
One of the best schools in the state as evidenced by the receipt of the 2012 National Blue Ribbon awarded by the Secretary of Education. My child has attended this school for several years and I could not be happier with the education he has received so far. This school has an extremely active PTA that raises thousands of dollars every year to put towards programs that enrich the education of Linden Hill students. The communication from teachers and administration is constant and comes in various forms. A vast majority of the teachers have completed education beyond a 4 year bachelor's degree (master's degree or above). The majority of the student body is made up of a great group of "down to earth" kids that come from involved families with educated parents. I've been particularly impressed by the amount of time the school spends on bullying prevention and treating others kindly. It shows in the interactions between the children. The front office staff is very organized and keeps the school running smoothly. The cafeteria offers healthy lunch choices and does not offer "junk food" of any kind. My family has great pride in this school and recommend it without hesitation.
Upon reading the reviews from prior years regarding "non inclusive school attitudes regarding different religions", it would appear the school has been making great strides to rectify this issue. As a new parent of a Kindergarten student at Linden Hill in this 2012-2013 school year, I receive emails regularly and newsletters each month from my son's teacher. The most recent newsletter addressed the different celebrations taking place during this time of year, and asked that if my family celebrates something other than what was listed in the letter to please send information into the class so that the teacher could be sure to include everyone's celebrations in the classroom. I found that to be very eye-opening as to what kind of atmosphere is in place at this elementary school. Kudos to Linden Hill for listening to the concerns of their students' parents and working diligently to make their school a place where everyone feels welcome and included.
Linden Hill is a great School. My daughter is a special ed student and easily fits in! Her teachers focus on her learning and she is excelling. She has never had any trouble getting into programs. The school expects excellence in their students and staff because they want to create an environment of learning not because of test scores. We would not want to send our child to any other school.
I am not a parent, but a student that used to go there. Mrs. Huckleberry is an awesome TAG teacher and thanks to Mrs. Bryant, Mrs. Martin, Mrs. Ramone(:, and Mrs. Zimny I will succeed in life and I know I will. Now I'm at a bad school called new garden.
My son is a 3rd grader in this school and I see he enjoys a lot in his class. He improved in math and other topics. Teachers are caring for their student very much. Also, there are many other activities for students. I am very satisfied with this school.
My kid has been this school for several years. Over all experiences are good. Linden Hill is indeed an excellent school to attend.
Linden Hill is an absolutely wonderful shool. It is well run by caring and educationally focused teachers. The administrators are top notch. The parent interest and participation is phenomenal. I can't say enough good things about Linden Hill. There is no need to look elsewhere for the best in education (public or private).
Wonderfull teachers and great principal. They are very supportive and if any kid needs any special help, they do anything to help.
My daughter had Miss Hilgar last year. I found her to be a very caring, focused and all around excellent teacher. She was not afraid to entertain weekly volunteers and, as a matter of fact, she welcomed them. I found that comforting as a 'hands on' parent. Many children drew her pictures expressing how much they loved her as a teacher. My daughter has even saved a 'special' Christmas card for her this year. On one last note, I will vouch that Dr. Bradley and Mrs. Brady are the best administrators you could possibly hope for and get.
This school is a great community with an active, involved PTA. Children and learning come first, and my daughter feels a great sense of pride in being a student at the school.
I have 2 children who attend this school and I am thrilled with the education they have received. The teachers and school administration are absolutely wonderful.
We have two kids at this school (K & 2nd). Since I walked through the doors for kindergarten orientation, I felt like it was home for me and my kids. My feeling is such that if this school doesn't work for us, no public school will. The entire staff cares about the children and it shows. We are just thankful we 'got in' and know our kids are happy and safe.
I have one child in fourth grade at Linden Hill and another who just finished fifth grade (June 2007). The school is like an old neighborhood school from when I grew up in Pike Creek thirty years ago. Most of the families live nearby and like the teachers, they take pride in the rejuvenated school. School functions (plays, recitals, etc) are always packed with children and involved parents. The school has a great OM (Odyssey of the Mind) program that has enjoyed quite a bit of success in the past few years. I would not consider sending my children to any other elementary school in the area. I'll save my tiution for their high school education.
Linden Hill is an outstanding school. We've had 2 children there. (1 k-5 and a current 4th grader) The administration is superior. All of the teacher's we've worked with over the years have gone well above and beyond. I've always found them to be respectful of individual differences and to consistently offer meaningful instruction beyond 'drill and skill'. This is truly a child-centered environment. Save the tuition payment, get a supportive administration, relatively small class sizes and progressive teachers! We strongly recommend Linden Hill.
Have 2 kids there & think it's a very well-run school. It has a bit of a closed-door feeling as far as the parents' access to the building, but I think in this day an age this is necessary for security issues. Didn't see too much 'extra-curricular' activities since we came half way through the year, but would always love to see more. They are a bit strict in the lunchroom - maybe they need to be, but kids I saw weren't allowed to even talk to each other while eating. Thought that was odd, but maybe necessary for that age. My kid had a terrible time at another school with paying attention/learning (we thought he'd be held back), but was able to learn from his teacher at Linden Hill and surprised us all. Concerned about the cutbacks by the district. Quit opening charters and improve what you have already!

Canyons New Live Show
Modular Records signees and Sydneysiders Canyons have been climbing to great heights, recently.
It's more than likely you caught wind of their debut LP Keep Your Dreams, seamlessly blending the sounds of euphoric nineties vocal house, hazed-out disco and moments of blissful ambience – whether on Australian radio airwaves, at festivals such as Peats Ridges or in support slots for the likes of Justice. Considering themselves musicians rather than producers or DJs, this distinction does much to explain their musical and heartfelt approach to songwriting - frantic chords, loose synth lines and macerated drum machines alongside sun-bleached sitars, hypnotic hooks, sandblasted saxophones, and an increasingly blurry line between the live and programmed. In between an already-busy 2012, the Syndeysiders have been assembling an all-new audiovisual live setup that's free of computers and full of live loops from a six-piece band and is sounding pretty damn good.
Catch Canyons at the Northcote Social Club on Thursday May 31.

SHAWMUT AVENUE Browse hip home décor boutiques like J.E.M. and Hudson — or pick up bold, geometric baubles from Michele Mercaldo Jewelry — on this tree-lined, brownstone-filled street in the South End. Polka Dog Bakery and Formaggio Kitchen are perfect places to stop: The former offers treats for pups (and is worth a visit even if yours is at home), while the latter has one of the most comprehensive selections of cheese and charcuterie in the city. Take Home: Taza's salted-almond Chocolate Mexicano disk, $5.25, Formaggio Kitchen.
BRATTLE STREET This boutique-packed stretch in Harvard Square proves that bigger is not always better when it comes to shopping.

The Tannery stocks tried-and-true brands such as Hunter and Boston-based Timberland, while Passport proffers stylish designer duds and accessories from the likes of Vince, Hayden-Harnett, and Chan Luu. Take Home: Cards from Milton-based stationer Two Trick Pony, $4.50, Black Ink.
CHARLES STREET For an epic combo of historical scenery and boutique shopping, there's nowhere better than Charles Street in Beacon Hill. Those with a penchant for used treasures can lose themselves at Antiques at 80 Charles and Upstairs Downstairs. Good meets in the middle, with unique luxuries like vintage jewelry and art. Moxie and Wish round out the spectrum with mod, contemporary women's clothing, while Charles Street Supply, the city's oldest hardware store, has something for the toolheads in tow. Take Home: Chart Metalworks' Boston Harbor keychains, $135 each, Good.

Biomass Energy Program
The Biomass Energy Program has promoted wood waste as an alternative biomass energy source for over two decades. Wood-industry participants have been able to reduce production costs by using waste in the form of wood chips, sawdust, and bark in new and/or converted wood-fired combustion systems. The steam or hot air produced from combustion is often used in dry kilns or in electric power generation. As a result, millions of dollars are saved annually, not only in avoided energy costs, but also in costs associated with waste disposal.
The Biomass Energy Program is available to assist wood-industry and non-wood industry businesses alike with installing biomass energy systems. The program provides up to $75,000 in interest subsidy payments on loans to install approved biomass projects. Eligible applicants include industrial, commercial, and institutional facilities, as well as agricultural property owners and city, county, and state entities. Landfill gas (LFG) projects are also eligible for funding consideration. The Energy Division is a member of the EPA Landfill Methane Outreach Program (LMOP). For more information on landfill gas and the LMOP visit www.epa.gov/lmop.

ATLANTA (AP) - Governor Nathan Deal is appointing a political adviser as Georgia's transportation planning director.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Toby Carr will have a key role in deciding which projects get funded with the state's $2 billion annual gas tax budget.
Carr is a former director of the Georgia Republican Party. He was director of Deal's gubernatorial transition committee, and has been serving as Deal's transportation policy adviser.
Carr replaces Todd Long, a career engineer and transportation planner. Long was appointed by Gov. Sonny Perdue and kept on by Deal. He has now moved to deputy commissioner of the state Department of Transportation.

As the curtain opens on Rossini's comic opera Il barbiere di Siviglia, you might expect to see a sunny Spanish street of plaster and tile. But not when the San Francisco Opera commissions architect and set designer Hans Dieter Schaal. He slices right down to the core of a concept to release its inner essences for a primal framework that projects the composer's passions and dreams and actions in elegant simplicity.
The house of Dr. Bartolo is the bustling, brawling Barber of Seville condensed into a dynamic, multifaceted cube. "The house is not a dead thing for me," Schaal says, "it is a living thing and it takes part of my life and the life of the people in it."
Schaal's ingenious 45,000-pound two-story unit set rotates, revealing its four facades of character and mood. "The music here is like a machine, almost like a motor. Its very lively and funny, and makes me happy," as the aria-driven cast goes upstairs and downstairs, through rooms, and entering and exiting the house.
"In theatre," he says, "its important to be here, in this space, for two or three hours, or five hours, and to finally see something you have never seen before." And with Schaal's work, that's exactly what you get.

Who would have thought at the beginning of the '70s tWho would have thought at the beginning of the '70s that the guy who directed "Duel" would emerge ten years later with two the biggest films of the decade under his belt, with "Jaws" and "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind." But looking back, it's also interesting to consider what could have been. While Spielberg no longer has to chase jobs and has scripts coming to him, back then, he was still a filmmaker on the rise looking to make a name for himself. You might recall the budding filmmaker sent a script to the fake movie company the CIA set up for the operation outlined in Ben Affleck's "Argo," and had things gone differently, Spielberg would have taken on one biggest franchises of all time.
Catching up with the Daily Mail, Spielberg reveals he once offered his services for a James Bond movie. "I went to Cubby Broccoli and I asked if I could do one and he said: 'No'," Spielberg said. And it seems that once bitten is twice shy. "I've never asked again. Instead, I made the 'Indiana Jones' series," he shared.
So, why not call up him up now? Well, time may heal all wounds but it doesn't write checks. Speaking with EW last year during a Q&A for "Super 8," Spielberg recounted the Bond story but added why it's unlikely he'll take it on at this point. "When I first started making movies, the only franchise I cared about and wanted to be part of was James Bond. When I started out as a TV director, my pie-in-the-sky dream was to make a little movie that would get some notoriety, and then [the late Bond series producer] Cubby Broccoli would call me and ask me to direct the next James Bond picture," he said. "But I could never get Cubby Broccoli to hire me—and now, sadly, they can't afford me."
We'll just have to leave what could have been to our imagination with this one. But what do you think -- would Spielberg have delivered a great Bond movie? Let us know below.
Daniel | November 28, 2012 9:47 PM
I concur, I think it could've [potentially] been brilliant. James Bond as a whole was a bit goofy then, with Roger Moore in the role (in my humble opinion, of course), so it does depend, I suppose, on how well Spielberg could've reigned it in â but given complete creative license, I imagine he would've been able to make a very taut spy thriller, not far off from Jaws-level of top-notchness. (Just, you know, without the shark.)
Though I admit I'm a bit baffled too about why this story is suddenly so popular. Hasn't Spielberg mentioned this any number of times in his career â especially given how central "being rejected" supposedly was to his and Lucas's choice to go off and concoct Indiana Jones? I swear it's in at least half a dozen, decades-old Indiana Jones documentary thingys (not to mention Wikipedia, and in several biographies about Spielberg).
And maybe it's just my memory (and I don't doubt there could've been some ulterior motivations involved, as well), but I distinctly remember that the main reason given for why Spielberg had been rejected was because Broccoli wanted to ensure James Bond was always directed by a British filmmaker â thus, Spielberg would've been out by default.
(Please, somebody tell me I'm not going senile and remembering this wrongly.)
DJP | November 23, 2012 1:30 PM
The movie would have sucked because Roger Moore was Bond in the 70s.

Really, instead of running a story just for hits you could have reviewed and posted your favorite short films and maybe given some deserving directors some publicity a chance. You could review or discuss your favorite film books.
Mike | November 23, 2012 10:35 AM
From a visual standpoint alone - absolutely.
Remember the staging for the assassinations scenes in Munich? Incredible.
Casey Moore | November 23, 2012 10:33 AM
Why is this a news story? This story has been told and retold for decades.
tristan eldritch | November 23, 2012 10:30 AM
"But what do you think -- would Spielberg have delivered a great Bond movie?"
Spielberg would have directed the shit out of a Bond movie in the 70s/early 80s. Shame it didn't happen.

No issues. I shop at the farmers market throughout the spring/summer/fall. I also live close to an organic grocery store and a great butcher that carries pasture raised beef, pork and chicken. Try your local butcher. I recently bought a grass fed cow tongue (huge) for $6 at the farmers market. Do you have them where you live?
Why thank you very much for your kind words. I wish you great success on your journey :)
Hello Warmbear,
I was reading your thread about your taste changing in...
I had to just leave a note here for you and your lovely wife, since that thread seem to have taken on a new life. I think being way more than cuddly myself, you are who you are on the inside. Changing on the outside is all tangiable but the inside is solid. I feel that for myself that being really overweight for a significant part of my life has made me into a humble and don't take life for granted type of person. I think starting to get off track, sorry. You like what you like and i don't feel that will ever change because you love her no matter what. I hope you are both happy and continue to grow in your marriage and find a happy balance. Best luck in your journey. :)

According to a recent Pew poll, roughly 36 percent of Americans say they don't understand what the Affordable Care Act means for them.
With open enrollment in federal healthcare exchanges beginning next week, scammers are already taking advantage of the confusion associated with the nationwide mandate.
Telephone scams are nothing new in South Carolina, but with sweeping healthcare reform affecting virtually everyone in the country, scammers are following the headlines and taking advantage of what you don't know.
The state Department of Consumer Affairs says they're seeing an increase in healthcare scams across South Carolina.
The goal of fraudsters is to separate you from your sensitive personal information. In one such scam, scammers represent themselves as Medicare representatives who need your Social Security number so they can issue you a new Medicare card.
Other scammers may try and coerce you to sign up for "Obamacare," or offer to send you a new medical alert device. Fraud experts warn, if you receive a cold call asking you to divulge any sensitive information regarding healthcare, someone is likely trying to scam you.
"Scammers use scare tactics to try and get you to do something," said Juliana Harris, Consumer Affairs official. "So it could even be that, 'Oh we're offering this great deal. If you don't sign up now, you could pay double,' or 'If you don't sign up now, you're going to jail, because it's illegal not to have health insurance.'"
Fraud experts say they expect to see more of these scams in the coming months as people start to feel the pressure to purchase healthcare before the Jan. 1, 2014 deadline. To report suspicious calls or emails, contact the Department of Consumer Affairs at 1-800-922 1594.
