Indianapolis — An Indianapolis man is facing federal charges alleging that he tore up and hauled away more than 184 tons of railroad track.
Sixty-four-year-old Donald Haas has been charged with violence against rail carriers and mass transportation systems. He's scheduled to stand trial May 13.
Federal prosecutors allege that Haas is accused of using a front loader to remove about 2 miles of steel rail that rail experts estimate was worth about $60,000.
Indianapolis Metropolitan police officers say the theft took place over a period of months last year.
WISH-TV reports Haas told officers he had CSX's permission to remove the rail and showed them a letter of permission printed on CSX letterhead.
Police say the document was a fake. CSX declined to comment on the pending case.

In the holiday season, it is important to remember that a grandparent's love and support have a positive impact on children, particularly in the early years of a child's life. When children develop a strong bond with their grandparents, they feel more stable and even do better in school. Grandparents, share family stories with your grandchildren. Remember, children love to hear what their parents and grandparents were like as kids!

4.25/5 rDev +1%
A - impenetrable black, two fingers of tan head retained extremely well, bits of lacing here and there
S - big pine resin and leafy hop aromas, some toffee and roasty/smoky notes also
T - pine resin and earthy hops up front, followed by roasty and light molasses malts, leafy and earthiness rounds out the with a faint touch of alcohol
M - relatively light bodied, smooth though the middle with hop bitterness picking up through a medium dry finish, no trace of the 9.5% ABV makes it dangerously drinkable
O - fairly unassuming at first but the flavours build along with the drinkability making for an outstanding example of a style that I hope grows in popularity

750ml bottle. Wow are Odell corks tight! Pours dark brown/black with a monstrous creamy light brown head that retains well and laces the glass.
The aroma is roasted malts, some black licorice, and resiny piney tarry hops.
The flavor is roasted malts with a little sweetness and a good amount of fruity, medium bitter, hops in the finish. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with smooth carbonation.
Overall, a very solid, well balanced, brew. Nothing over the top, but very drinkable. The alcohol is well hidden but the warming sneaks up on you.

12oz brown bottle with a freshness date.
LOOK: A shade away form full on black, epic looking lacing on the glass.
SMELL: Peppermint, orange zest, carob, sweet coffee, plum pudding, figs, dark bread, alcohol.
TASTE: Smooth, creamy, medium body, full jacket of hop flavor, thick wild herb, mint, pine, orange and lime zest, warming alcohol, slight roasted grain, burnt sugar, toastet bread crust.
Odell is serious when the said "Double", the hops are amped with a level of alcohol is tells you that you better be sipping and of course the malt to back everything up is just enough. I really love where Odell is taking this style.

The beer pours a very dark brown color with a huge tan head. The aroma has a lot of pine and resin notes, with some darker malt thrown in. The flavor is very similar, with the strong pine and resin notes from the hops really coming through strong. There is also some chocolate and lightly roasted malt, as well as some cream and a low amount of bitterness. There is also a slight medicinal flavor, but I can't pick out what it is caused by. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Serving glass: Poured from bottle into Nonic Imperial Pint.
Appearance: Very dark brownish-black with massive light brown head and nice lacing.
Smell: Pine, grapefruit, coffee, dark chocolate and a floral rose-like aroma.
Taste: Great juxtaposition of pine & grapefruit accented hops and coffee & bittersweet chocolate roasted malts. Ends somewhat bitter, spicy and floral; just generally very well balanced.
Feel: Smooth medium to full body with moderate carbonation. Very dry finish.
Drinkability: Delicious - great melding of Porter and IPA, imperialized. Would love to have this again - I split the 750 and was jealous of the other 375.

Poured from 12 oz. bottle into a Surly Darkness Chalice glass. Bottle best by date is 4/12/12.
Appearance: Pours dark and black with only a little bit of brownish ruby red shining through the bottom of the glass. Moderate amount of bubbles and a decent two fingers of off white head that stick around pretty good. Lots of lace on the glass.
Smell: Very roasty and hoppy. Big aroma of dark roasted malts with good hints of chocolate and a little coffee. A fairly strong hop presence with lots of earthy hops, pine resin, and some citrus grapefruit and pineapple. Nice mixture of fruity and floral hops with the malt.
Taste: Taste is very hoppy upfront with a nice blend of citrus and earthy hops. Notes of grapefruit, pineapple, orange, and pine resin. Midway comes a very hearty backing of bready dark roasted malts. Nice notes of chocolate with a little coffee in the back end. Some spice hangs on to the tongue. Very good.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a moderate level of carbonation. Creamy and somewhat oily. Alcohol is barely noticeable. Finishes pretty dry.
Overall: A very good take on a Black Ale. Very big and robust flavors but well balanced.

Dark dark brown pour, slight tan head to it. Amazing fruity aroma. Beer looks so dark, but smells so tropical.
Big tropical hop flavor, pineapple and mango in a double black ipa, love it. Perfect carbonation for the appearance and the mouthfeel, something I've had an issue with from these guys before, but not here. Don't really want to call it complex because its really just a big hop mouthfeel of tropical citrus with a black appearance. I don't taste any of the chocolate, coffee or cream that others do, I think there might just be a projection of color =flavor bias.
Close your eyes and drink it, very drinkable, hides the alcohol extremely well. Got this from koufax21 for xmas, a great gift indeed.

Appearance is a dark brown in a red-orange hue. Nice 2 finger frothy head. The aroma gives off the smokyness hinting at the hoppiness to come. The smoky flavor is a little overpowering which is expected from a black ipa. Wish it was a little more subtle. Taste also hangs out a bit in the back of your pallet. A good beer nonetheless.

Poured a deep coffee black with a one finger off-white head. Quite stout like in appearance, but very nice. Scents of peat moss, pine, roast malt and black coffee. True to style, the earthy qualities and hops shine through, backed by a nice roast and black malt scent. Very well done. Taste is roast malt, a bit of alcohol mingling in the background and finish, an ample level of piney hops, citrus pith and grapefruit, some very faint hints of coffee and sweetness and a nice earthiness in the background. It's a very good set of flavors, hoppy yet roasty, bitter with an earthy hint. Mouthfeel is medium-heavy bodied with moderate carbonation and some alcohol burn with an oily-slick finish. Very good, quite nice to drink. Overall this is a good black IPA. It's got the hops, it's got the earthiness and it's got the roastiness to compete with others in it's class.

September 2, 2014
(CNN) -- A Kentucky woman has been banned from her church because of who she wants to marry.
When she announced her upcoming wedding, the church members voted to prohibit interracial couples from joining the church.
"It's racist. That's all you can call it." Those are the words from Dean Harville, who is living it first-hand.
The church he's attended for more than 30 years and rasied his family in has taken issue with his daughter Suzie and her black fiance, Tichna Chikuni, who is originally from Zinbabwe. Dean says, "I treat him like he's my own son. You won't find a nicer person."
The couple that met in college recently attended services at Gulnare Free Will Baptist Church.
The small country church in Pike County, Kentucky (about 15 miles north of Pikeville) is the church Suzie grew up in. Suzie played the piano and Tichna sang.
Dean says, "The pastor came up and told me, while I was counting the church offering, Suzie and her boyfriend is not allowed to sing in this church anymore. He said, 'Furthermore Suzie can take her fellow back where she found him at.'"
Then, a policy was voted on and approved by the congregation, banning inter-racial couples from joining the church or having any role in their services.
Suzie says, "It's just a travesty. They've crossed the line in revoking my fiancé and I's right to worship in a public place."
It's a policy not sitting well with the majority of the community.
Media outlets have attempted to contact the church for comment, but calls have not been returned.

Town Square
Zero Dark Thirty was zeroed out the leftists
Original post made by Gary on Feb 27, 2013
As usual, I was right. The leftists, zeroed out "Zero Dark Thirty"
Waterboarding worked. It is that simple. OBL is now dead, because of waterboarding and other stressful events. We need to honor GWB for his leadership.
Instead, we get this leftist drivel from Holloywood.
In a previous thread, I was told to just wait and see, by the lefties...Hollywood would focus on exellence, instead of ideology. Wrong! The leftists rejected Zero Dark Thirty, because it did not fit their narrative.
I was right, of course.

Using a fictional movie as proof? That's the best ya got?
Gary's lost it. Agree with Crag: nothing new about that.
on Feb 28, 2013 at 10:52 am
>Using a fictional movie as proof? That's the best ya got?
Leon Panetta should know. He stated that enhanced interrogation was essential to the killing of OBL.
The real fiction is the leftist narrative, carefully crafted by Hollywood. Nothing new...yawn.
on Feb 28, 2013 at 11:09 am
Yet John McCain told you that torture doesn't work.
And waterboarding is torture -- the United States has prosecuted water boarding incidents as torture, in the past.
Noting new? True. All Gary's posts use the absurd phrases such as 'leftist narrative, carefully crafted by Hollywood'. So sad. Poor gary can't think for himself, just using the Glenn Beck/Drug Limbaugh talking points.
on Feb 28, 2013 at 11:22 am
>Yet John McCain told you that torture doesn't work.
He did not. In fact, he broke under torture by the North Vietnamese, and provided propaganda fodder for them. He was very ashamed that he broke, but he did break. He just opposes torture on moral grounds.
Zero Dark Thrity was a docudrama that explained how OBL was killed. Waterboarding, and other stressor methods were essential to that final kill. John McCain does not deny this...he just opposes waterboarding, no matter how effective it is.
The leftists in Hollywood (Ed Asner and his crew) were not about to allow this film to get the awards that it deserved. Nothing new. Censorship and blacklisting are common themes in Hollwywood.

> The recent movie "Zero Dark Thirty" explained the truth ...
Dubious ... getting truth from a Hollywood movie is like trying to get milk from a bull.
on Feb 28, 2013 at 11:51 am
" Outgoing Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said on Sunday that "We could have gotten bin Laden without" enhanced interrogation techniques, despite the implication in the film "Zero Dark Thirty" that the techniques, called torture by opponents, played a pivotal role in finding bin Laden."
He went on to say the following: "Yes, some of it came from some of the tactics that were used at that time, interrogation tactics that were used," he admitted. "But the fact is we put together most of that intelligence without having to resort to that."
But ol' Gary thinks that Hollywood is real. Yet he claims Hollywood is not real. Oh, poor Gary....
McCain, under torture, gave up the names of the green Bay Packer offensive line.
Nice try, gary.
More from McCain:
""It was not torture, or cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment of detainees that got us the major leads that ultimately enabled our intelligence community to find Osama bin Laden," McCain said in a stirring 22-minute speech from the Senate floor.
McCain called the techniques implemented by CIA interrogators during the George W. Bush administration and later barred by President Obama "indisputably torture," and said waterboarding amounted to a "mock execution."
"I do not believe they are necessary to our success in our war against terrorists, as the advocates of these techniques claim they are," he said.
McCain directly criticized former Attorney General Michael Mukasey for publicly suggesting recently that waterboarding of alleged 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammed led investigators to the courier who ferried information to and from bin Laden's compound in Pakistan.
"That is false," McCain said, citing a report from CIA director Leon Panetta who said the courier's identity was obtained elsewhere.
Waterboarding KSM "actually produced false and misleading information," McCain said, explaining that Mohammed's information on the courier was ultimately proven incorrect."

Balkd facts:
Bush waterboarded. Obama didn't.
Bush didn't get bin Laden. Obama did.

>He went on to say the following: "Yes, some of it came from some of the tactics that were used at that time, interrogation tactics that were used," he admitted. "But the fact is we put together most of that intelligence without having to resort to that."
Leon Panetta did not say that enhanced interrogation was not essential to killing OBL. He is clearly under pressure to underplay its crucial role.
Zero Dark Thiry weaves together the path to kill OBL. Waterboarding was an important element, but it was not the total package, and I have never claimed that it was. However, without waterboarding, OBL would still be alive.
We owe GWB a siginficant amount of honor for doing what needed to be done. If waterboarding is needed again, under special circumstances, there should be no hesitation to use it.
Zero Dark Thirty was shut out at the Oscars, as I predicted, because it does not conform to the leftist narrative.
on Feb 28, 2013 at 1:38 pm
Sad that a "member" of our community is still trying to justify torture.
on Feb 28, 2013 at 2:26 pm
"Zero Dark Thiry weaves together the path to kill OBL."
Gary: let's try it a little more clearly... IT'S A MOVIE, not a factual documentary. You make silly, specious, unproven claims that you cannot factually substantiate, such as " He is clearly under pressure to underplay its crucial role."
About the only provable fact you have in your post is "Zero Dark Thirty was shut out at the Oscars, as I predicted", assuming, of course, that you did predict it. I'll give ya that one. Otherwise, stick with facts, like the one about Bush not caring if he got bin Ladin, or Obama's promise to America to get bin Ladin, and it's fulfillment.
Waterboarding is torture. Torture doesn't work. Give it up, Gary.
Unless you want to pull a little demo... a nice safe demonstration of Gary getting waterboarded at Lytton Plaza? Like that author who tried it it and FREAKED out?
on Feb 28, 2013 at 5:38 pm
> Leon Panetta did not say that enhanced interrogation was not essential to killing OBL. He is clearly under pressure to underplay its crucial role.
If there is pressure it is pressure the other way, in order to justify greater lattitude and more hands off for military actions, and so it would be in OVERPLAYING the role of "enhanced interrogation techniques" which has the dual role of amping up everyone around the world and in the country about the matter. If you don't have a real enemy before you begin acting like this - you damn well have quite a few after you start.
The idea that people they know may be getting grabbed, kidnapped, waterboarded and tortured - sometimes fatally has got to be one of the greatest recruitment forces in the radical Islamic world. This has been used on people all throughout the world ... except in America, the kind of implied chosen people. One reason to come to America would be not to be subject to this kind of terror. America the safe magnet.
The bottom lines seems to me to be about controlled the global media, or at least the conversation with US superpower belligerence for the sake of the reaction it provokes. Obviously these conversations would have been had in the White House so it would seem clear that a war with Islam was indeed what the Neocons had in mind. All these years and all this talk in the media, the news and the wars for something that was decided by a few and forced on everyone else politically for some greater good by the coordinated COMPUTED application of political and economic force.
It's about time what a "greater good" is defined and would look like needs to be trotted out and explained. We have corporations with the responsibility of being profitable that overrides everything else for them, what is the "metric" by which we judge government if not the greatest good, so it needs to be defined and reported on.
I think mostly it has to do with greater good being defined as the good of the greatest force, and there is no guarantee that is going to be democratic of permanent unless democratic government is the last and greatest vote counted.
on Feb 28, 2013 at 5:46 pm
"The idea that people they know may be getting grabbed, kidnapped, waterboarded and tortured - sometimes fatally has got to be one of the greatest recruitment forces in the radical Islamic world."
Second only to drones strikes. Amazing what blowing up a wedding will do for al Qaeda recruitment numbers....

>If you don't have a real enemy before you begin acting like this - you damn well have quite a few after you start.
We do have a real enemy, and it is fundmentalist Islam. OBL, along with KSM and some others were leading the charge. Waterboarding helped to get OBL.
GWB deserves much credit.
The Hollywood leftists are trying to rewrite histor, by shutting out "Zero Dark Thirty". Their censorship efforts are typical of lefties...yawn.
on Mar 3, 2013 at 2:46 pm
Yawn. Gary used to be a leftist. Don't forget that the leftists gave the award to the film baed on the other organization they love-- the CIA.
Of course Gary believes that zero drk thirty is history-- it is a movie based on incidents .
Gary, like most, republicans is disconnected from reality
on Mar 3, 2013 at 7:16 pm
Gary, you left for a couple days... and somehow missed my magnanimous offer! Since you think waterboarding is no big deal, and it isn't torture:
"Unless you want to pull a little demo... a nice safe demonstration of Gary getting waterboarded at Lytton Plaza?"
Waddaya say, big fella? You man enough?
on Mar 14, 2013 at 12:59 pm
>We do have a real enemy, and it is fundmentalist Islam.
Well, I am not sure that enemy really fits the bill here. I agree that the radical Islamists are a problem for the whole world. It seems to me that rather than deal with it, because economic realities make that difficult, we have transformed it to the military domain. That serves multiple purposes, it inflames and swells the resistance, it pumps money and power into our military, it give masses of cash to the belligerent sectors of our own economy and society that have been problematic since the outbreak of peace after WWII and the new Cold War.
In short, all this militarism has been a disaster for the economy, society, American culture, American trust, and the support of diversity and freedom of speech ... we have practically gutted our own country to bring about the reality a small minority think benefits them, and put these folks in charge for ... who know how long?
on Mar 14, 2013 at 2:17 pm
> I agree that the radical Islamists are a problem for the whole world
No need to use he word "radical". Fundmentalist Muslims simply read the Quran, and following its teachings. They do not respect weakness, only strength.
We have not experienced another 9-11 since 9-11. Thank you, GWB, for your strong military and rhetorical response.
Typically, the Hollwood leftists tried to avoid reality, by blacklisting "Zero Dark Thrity". Waterboarding worked, and they just can't admit it.

Accountancy Bill Passes Florida LegislatureSenate Bill 1656 (SB 1656), sponsored by Sen. Jack Latvala, R-St. Petersburg, and its House companion Bill 769 (HB 769), sponsored by Rep. Clay Ford, R-Pensacola, unanimously passed their respective Chambers. Together, the Legislation streamlines licensure and renewal requirements set forth in Chapter 473. One of several significant requirement changes relates to amnesty and license reactivation. Here is a summary of five streamlining actions:
The legislation still has one more stop before it becomes law. It now is headed to Gov. Scott's desk for his signature.
By The Numbers: 2012 Bill Filing and Passage Statistics
SINE Die Short Lived: Special Session Begins
As Gov. Rick Scott, House Speaker Dean Cannon and Senate President Mike Haridopolos gathered on the last day of the 2012 session (March 9) for the traditional Sine Die celebration, there also was the sobering news that they must return to the Capitol to redraw proposed Senate district boundaries.
The Florida Supreme Court ruled that the Senate maps failed to adequately comply with Florida's new voter-approved constitutional amendments. The amendments were designed to block gerrymandering of legislative and congressional districts, which have to be redrawn every 10 years.
Gov. Scott has called for a special session on redistricting. It began Wednesday, March 14 at 1 p.m. and extends through 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday, March 28.

On Monday, July 25, we hosted the very first #BBSMBchat. Most importantly, we want to stop and thank every single person who participated. We'd also like to thank our guests of honor and judges of the Small Business Influencer Awards, Anita Campbell and Ramon Ray. Since this was our first @BlackBerry4Biz Twitter® chat, we weren't exactly sure what to expect, but I can honestly say that the chat exceeded all of our expectations. The insights shared by participants were incredibly thought provoking, and we were so impressed with the conversations that took place. #BBSMBchat wouldn't have been possible without the fantastic participants who contributed their knowledge.
With almost two hundred of you joining us on Monday, #BBSMBchat was hard to keep up with! So much expertise was shared that I had to go back and read through the transcript again to make sure I didn't miss anything. We talked about all topics related to small and medium businesses (SMB's), including the importance of networking, social media, technology, and what inspires SMB owners. I'd like to share some of my favorite responses to a few of the questions, but I urge everyone to search the hashtag and check out some of the conversation. While the responses I highlight below are fantastic, there is so much more great conversation that I encourage everyone to take a look at. If there is one thing that was reinforced during #BBSMBchat last night, it is that when you own a small or medium business, your peers are the best source for new information, advice, encouragement and inspiration.
Q2: WHAT WAS THE BEST BUSINESS ADVICE YOU'VE EVER RECEIVED? WHO/WHERE DID IT COME FROM? #BBSMBchat—
Research In Motion (@BlackBerry4Biz) July 25, 2011
Best advice – stay true to your passion; #BBSMBchat—

A2: Best biz advice: get in touch with your inner voice, your "gut." It talks to you. Alone time is important. #BBSMBchat—
Anita Campbell (@smallbiztrends) July 25, 2011
Q9: HOW IMPORTANT IS IT TO COMMUNICATE WITH OTHERS IN THE SMB COMMUNITY IF ONLY FOR MORAL SUPPORT DURING STARTUP? #BBSMBchat—

Q9: Knowing you're not alone in your endeavor helps. Having an example helps more. Having a mentor is priceless. #BBSMBchat—
Robert Brady (@robert_brady) July 25, 2011
We've had lots of requests to host another #BBSMBchat. We plan on hosting the next #BBSMBchat within the next month and as soon as we set the date we will let you know. Once again, I'd like to thank all of the participants for making #BBSMBchat a wonderful success. The @BlackBerry4Biz team had a fantastic time and we can't wait to chat with you again soon!

The Seahawks will not have Brandon Browner in the secondary when they play Arizona on Sunday, but they will have Sidney Rice on offense.
Rice, who suffered a concussion after scoring the game-winning touchdown last week against Chicago, has been cleared to play this weekend. MyNorthwest.com was the first to report the news Thursday. Rice is expected to practice Thursday.
In other injury news, cornerback Marcus Trufant, who didn't play Sunday, still has a hamstring injury. Running back Marshawn Lynch, and linebacker Leroy Hill were limited in practice on Wednesday. Defensive end Red Bryant did not practice.

Already the center of controversy in pre-trial arguments, the one-time feared hitman will be one of the government's star witnesses against the former Southie crime boss.
John Martorano cooperated with the government in exchange for a seven-year prison sentence for his crimes, a pretty light stint considering he admitted to 20 murders.
Expect the defense to attack his credibility, especially in light of reports that he continued to commit crimes after his release, a claim the government denies.

INTERVIEW: Aly & Fila at TomorrowWorld
Listen to Aly & Fila on iHeartRadio
Egyptian pharaohs of Trance Aly & Fila have captured the hearts of fans all over the world for nearly a decade with their music. The duo recently released their second artist album, and Fadi tells us they're already working on their third! This summer the guys also brought their radio show, Future Sounds of Egypt, across the globe on their FSOE 300 tour, while also spending some time in Ibiza as well.
We caught up with Fadi before his set on the Full On Ferry stage at TomorrowWorld where he talked about their latest album Quiet Storm, the Future Sound of Egypt 300 tour and what city was his favorite, and what life would be like if he were actually an Egyptian pharaoh. Check it out below:
Are you excited to play on the Full On Ferry stage tonight at TomorrowWorld?
I'm so excited because I already did Tomorrowland, which was amazing, and already I'm here and it's amazing. It looks brilliant. The crowd's going crazy so, I can't wait to play.
How do you think that TomorrowWorld compares to TomorrowLand?
It's different actually. In a good way. I think here is a different atmosphere, a different vibe than Europe, but I love it here. I feel likethere's this kind of happy atmosphere which I really like.
Tell me about your latest album Quiet Storm?
This is our second artist album and we've been working on it for the past three years. We worked so hard on it, and we're so proud about this product 'cause we were like, 100% sure this is something really good. And the feedback so far on it was brilliant. We got some really good feedback with the charts and everything. It did really well.
What's the dance music scene like in Egypt?
It's big. A lot of people wouldn't think like that, but I'm telling you it's really big. Really, really big. We have lots of underground parties, a lot of clubs. Like we have Space, Pacha, Privilege, all these big brands, we have it in Egypt. A lot of people don't know that. It's big and it's gonna get way bigger. And now, with the country getting stability again, I'm sure that next year will be a big clubbing destination. I'm pretty sure. 'Cause in Egypt they like a lot of different sounds like trance, deep house. Deep house is so big in Egypt now. The big room, they like everything. They are very open-minded for music, which is cool.
What's next for you guys? What are you guys working on?
We actually started working on the new artist album, which we plan to release next year. We started planning the celebration for Future Sounds of Egypt, 350 episodes for next year. We're gonna try to make it even bigger and we're gonna try to do some stuff in the US with the shows, with the celebration, hopefully. And we're gonna do a new compilation. So, next year is already looking so busy.

Research Triangle Park News
Blackstone Entrepreneurs Network names Robert Creeden first executive director
Nationwide Search Draws Experienced Entrepreneurial Leader to North Carolina
Oct. 4, 2011 – The Blackstone Entrepreneurs Network has named Robert Creeden, founder and managing partner of Partners Innovation Fund (PIF) of Boston, as its first executive director. Creeden brings 30 years of experience to North Carolina's Research Triangle. He will coordinate a major effort to draw marketable innovation out of the Triangle and its universities. He will lead the Blackstone Entrepreneurs Network in achieving it mission of boosting the region's economy and helping turn the Triangle into one of the country's top entrepreneurial hubs.
A consortium of major Triangle universities and the Durham-based Council for Entrepreneurial Development received $3.6 million from The Blackstone Charitable Foundation earlier this year. Partners in the project include: Duke University, North Carolina Central University, North Carolina State University, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the Council for Entrepreneurial Development. Elected leaders from across the state attended the April 25, 2011 launch event and praised the program for its innovative approach.
Creeden was selected through a highly competitive national search. Together with the program's partners, he will help identify and harness the talent and experience of area entrepreneurs who will scour the region for the most promising startup teams on and off campuses. These successful "master entrepreneurs" will work with selected high potential startups to build the next generation of growth companies in North Carolina. The ultimate goal of the Blackstone Entrepreneurs Network is to help the region become an engine for job creation and economic growth.
Creeden has a proven track record of identifying and commercializing early-stage technologies and raising seed funds, selection committee members said. These skills, combined with his expertise in building entrepreneurial organizations and his ability to leverage extensive new networks, set him apart from other applicants. He comes to North Carolina from Boston, which is second only to Silicon Valley in its density of startup companies and venture capital. He will begin work in North Carolina in late October.
Judith Cone, special assistant to the chancellor for innovation and entrepreneurship at UNC-Chapel Hill and a member of the selection committee, said: "Bob's phenomenal success with PIF, his extensive management record and his ability to bring new connections and networks to North Carolina was a compelling combination." The selection committee included representatives from each of the partner organizations.
Amy Stursberg, director of the Blackstone Charitable Foundation said, "We are pleased to have attracted such a high-caliber group of applicants and thrilled that Bob Creeden is willing to apply his talents and experience to lead the Blackstone Entrepreneurs Network in supercharging the Triangle's economy."
For Creeden, leading the Blackstone Network is a rare opportunity to accelerate entrepreneurial activity across sectors in an area rich in talent and resources. "I am very excited to be leading the Blackstone Entrepreneurs Network," he said. "The depth and breadth of innovative technologies being conceived and developed by regional players and the university partners, combined with the region's strong entrepreneurial ecosystem, are critical elements for achieving the goal of being a top entrepreneurial hub in the country."
Steve Nelson, an RTP-based venture capitalist and co-chair of the first ever North Carolina Innovation Council, said the Network will play a "critical role" in mining the best early-stage ideas.
"Creating and extending diverse, value-added networks is paramount to success for innovation and entrepreneurial ventures," he said.

Several mayors of municipalities in Orange County are banding together for better school security. The Council of Mayors met Friday morning with city police chiefs and representatives from the Sheriff's Office to discuss options.
Some of the conclusions are simple. Windermere Mayor Gary Bruhn wants continued communication among police chiefs, to prevent a Sandy Hook-type incident in Orange County.
"Everyone of our chiefs are communicating. They are working together," he said.
All the mayors also agree that they want armed police officers on school campuses, and not security guards with guns.
"We have anyone walking around our schools with a gun, we better know the caliber of that person, and that comes from sworn law enforcement," said Orange County Mayor Teresa Jacobs, who was also in attendance.
Both Bruhn and Jacobs are calling for an organized commission, dedicated to security for all county schools; however, the Orange School Board has indicated that such a commission is not necessary.
The Council of Mayors hope to come up with a unified plan, backed by the public schools, in the coming months.

The decision by the local insurance giant Liberty Mutual to reduce its maximum contributions to the 401(k) accounts of its 38,000 employees wasn't out of line with industry norms; Liberty Mutual workers still get solid benefits. Likewise, the company's request for special tax breaks in exchange for constructing a new office in Boston was fair enough; Liberty Mutual can't be faulted for seeking a good deal.
Rather, each of those nods to corporate frugality only underscore the outrageousness of the $200 million Liberty Mutual gave its former CEO Ted Kelly over four years, and the company's incredible executive perks, from a $4.5 million renovation of new CEO David H. Long's office suite to a fleet of aircraft to take Kelly to his vacation home in Florida, among other trips.

- " I find it very interesting that a hostel that advertises baggage storage will refuse to store your bags for two hours before check-in time. I arrived a few hours before I could check in. The guy behind the desk told me to sit and wait. I wanted to go out siteseeing, and the guy behind the desk told me to take my bags with me. Also, the cigarette smoking in the lobby gets pretty overwhelming and filters up into the residence area. I thought smoking was outlawed in indoor spaces in Beijing. "

- " Wasn't thrilled. First of all, it's in an okay location but only if you can find it...which isn't easy. Then, once found, the staff was surprised we were there. They had no idea we were coming and tried to say we didn't have a reservation until I pulled out my reservation and showed him. We were on 5th floor I think, and had no elevator for our luggage. Ok, but a little annoying. Bathrooms were clean and nice, but dorm was a bit dirty with no lockers and only one plug worked in the entire room. "

Save the oceans! Save the rainforests! Recycle! If you're a teenager living in the United States, chances are that you have heard this before. In fact, it's nearly impossible to grow up in the 1990s and not hear about this.
We may be constantly reminded of the earth's problems, but the fact remains that few Americans are doing anything about it. So what? It's not our responsibility! Well, guess what? If we don't take care of our earth, who do you think is going to? No one, that's who. That's why we have to.
What can we do to help? Well, there are several things:
-Recycle cans, bottles, paper, glass, etc.
-Join Greenpeace, or other environmental organizations.
-Buy a water-saving shower head to help conserve our important resources.
-Don't buy Styrofoam, and use pumps instead of aerosol cans, which have been shown to have a harmful affect on the ozone layer.
-Write letters showing your support or giving suggestions, to an organization such as Greenpeace.
-And, of course, keep our planet beautiful, don't litter.
The list goes on! You may not think that what you do will be enough to change the world, but every little thing you do will make a difference! n

By: Greg from Richmond, RI on 03/11/2011I'd have given it five stars, but the initial challenge to assemble would not let me. The parts weren't labeled, so I had to study the paper guide for quite awhile. Once I figured out how to put the first drawer together I had no problem. Once assembled, the piece was exactly what I needed. It looks very nice, too.

2 Victorian survivors get makeovers in Minneapolis
When Paul White was growing up, the big Queen Anne on the corner was known as "the witch's house," the one kids avoided on Halloween night. "We were all afraid to trick or treat [there]," White recalled. "It looked dark and scary, the bricks were crumbling, and there were vines growing on the side." Now that once creepy Victorian is his home. And after nearly a decade of restoration, it's no longer a forbidding presence but a jewel of the neighborhood. "We've all watched the trans formation," said Arvonne Fraser, a longtime resident of Minneapolis' Marcy Holmes neighborhood. Before White moved in, the house had "lots of potential, but was sad and dingy," she said. "The whole neighborhood is delighted."
Back in its heyday, the yellow brick mansion was a showplace, with decorative gables, carved stone lintels and a cupola. Built in 1881 for lumber baron James Lane, the "large and handsome dwelling" was proclaimed by the Minneapolis Tribune as "one of the finest residences constructed this season." At 7,000 square feet, the house was big enough to accommodate Lane's large family, yet he was also wealthy enough to build nearby houses for two of his daughters.
But Lane's fortunes declined, according to "Hiding in Plain Sight: Minneapolis' First Neighborhood" by Penny Petersen. The lumber business changed, and most of the sawmills moved upriver. In 1905 Lane turned his mansion into a duplex to create a home for his married son; there was no money for a new house as there had been for his older sisters. When Lane died the following year, his entire estate, including the house, was worth less than the $12,000 he'd spent to build it.
Meanwhile, the southeast neighborhood now known as Marcy Holmes also was beginning to change. Once home to the city's wealthiest movers and shakers, it was becoming more defined by its proximity to the University of Minnesota. Many of its grand Victorian houses were demolished or carved into apartments or roominghouses for students.
By the time White rediscovered the Lane mansion in 1998, it had been turned into a triplex and its cupola was gone. Still he was fascinated with the spooky Victorian he remembered from childhood.
At the time, White, a wind energy entrepreneur, had just moved back from California and was looking for a house to renovate. He got to know the elderly woman then living in the house and told her he'd like to buy it eventually, offering to move in as a tenant and help her take care of the place in the meantime.
One of White's first self appointed duties was getting rid of the squirrels in the attic. "I couldn't sleep; they were having parties all night," he recalled. "I finally said, 'Do you mind if I trap some of these squirrels?'" The owner was reluctant, but White snuck in a live trap, caught almost two dozen and relocated them.
After the owner died in 2000, White bought the house from her children, and began an overhaul. He's had "a ton of help from family and friends," he said, including Munce Tronsgard White, now his wife. When they married in June 2005, they held their reception at the house, even though the renovation wasn't completely finished.
"It was a lot of work to get the house ready for that party but we were inspired by the wedding party wishes from 1881 penciled on the attic chimney," White said.
Tronsgard White was already an active partner in the renovation project. "Paul had the vision," she said, but she collaborated with him on many of the details, such as designing decorative molding to restore the home's Victorian character. "Most of the original architectural stuff was ripped out."
Over the years, they've gutted the kitchen, created a spa like master bathroom out of two small rooms, converted the former attic into a media room, and restored the cupola, creating a third floor reading nook.
"There were so many spaces that could be opened up and reinvented," White said.
Yet they've also tried to remain true to the home's original spirit, rebuilding a pocket door to fit its original pocket and having dining room wall panels painted in a faux wood grain to match the faux bois finish on the fireplace.
The home's original banister, which was moved to the second floor when the house became a duplex, was brought back to the main floor staircase. "It's a wonderful step back to what it was," White said. Finally, the home is "almost exactly how I envisioned it."
And, in many ways, it's been a labor of love. "The biggest thing for me was the historic and architectural value of the house," he said. "I was inspired. Sometimes at night, I'd lie in the yard under the stars and look at the house. It was just awesome."
Is old the new green?
"Green" was just a color when Jaxon Bonsack's house was built in 1886.
"It's the flip side," he said, taking an old house and restoring it using re purposed materials. "When you're building new, you can use all the latest technology. But old houses are built far better; the lumber is denser and stronger."
Bonsack and partner Michael Lee originally were seeking a vacant city lot where they could build a sustainable home from the ground up until they became smitten with a 120 year old house just two doors down from their south Minneapolis duplex.
"We love the neighborhood," Bonsack said. "And we fell in love with the house when we walked onto the porch." Once inside, they fell for the home's architectural details, including its Italianate tile fireplace and an "original solid oak pocket door that still slides. The woodwork sealed the deal."
The home's structure and mechanics were in good shape, thanks to the previous owner, so Bonsack concentrated on giving it a complete cosmetic makeover that honored its heritage without being enslaved to it.
"I'm not a strict historic preservationist," he said. "I don't like living in museum pieces. I try to renovate within the spirit of the time period."
Bonsack, who was completing a degree in architecture, had a very modest budget so he relied on salvage centers, discount stores and ingenuity. "I've always been a big bargain hunter," he said. "Growing up on a farm, you learn to jury rig things." Some of his budget minded design innovations included:
Do it yourself grandeur: The original foyer was "underwhelming," and decades of living had left its ceiling damaged. Bonsack created an ornate, Victorian style ceiling for less than $500, using plywood and assembled bits of trim, which he finished with seven coats of high gloss enamel.
Regal bedroom: To create the illusion of a canopy bed in the master bedroom, Bonsack suspended fabric from a curtain rod and hooks in the ceiling. The good as new Ralph Lauren bedding duvet, dust ruffle, sheets and pillowcases came secondhand from Salvation Army for $20. "God bless rich people," Bonsack said.
Bargain paint: Bonsack shopped the "miss tint" section at Hirshfield's, where he found colors that were close to what he wanted, then had them tinted to his desired shade.
Make your own wallpaper: To give the master bathroom an English cottage vibe, Bonsack bought coffee table books about rose varieties, on clearance, then cut out the botanical color plates and decoupaged them on the walls, using leftover polyurethane from another project. Bonus: The pages were easier to hang than conventional wallpaper. "It took longer to cut them out than to put them up," he noted.

Each scientifically engineered tablet of Nature's Plus Connect-All supplies pure Glucosamine Sulfate (a natural componenet of articular cartilage) along with an extensive profile of nutrients including bromelain, calcium, vitamin C, mucopolysaccharides, essential cofactors and botanical concentrates.
GlucosamineGlucosamine is an important building block needed by the body to manufacture specialized molecules called glycosaminoglycans, found in cartilage.
Where is it found?Glucosamine is not present in significant amounts in most diets. Supplemental sources are derived from the shells of shrimp, lobster, and crab, or may be synthesized.
BromelainBromelain, derived from the pineapple plant, is one of a group of proteolytic enzymes (enzymes capable of digesting protein).
Where is it found?Bromelain is found mostly in the stems of pineapples and is available as a dietary supplement.
CalciumCalcium is the most abundant, essential mineral in the human body. Of the two to three pounds of calcium contained in the average body, 99% is located in the bones and teeth. Calcium is needed to form bones and teeth and is also required for blood clotting, transmission of signals in nerve cells, and muscle contraction. The importance of calcium for preventing osteoporosis is probably its most well-known role. Calcium supplements should be avoided by prostate cancer patients.
Where is it found?Most dietary calcium comes from dairy products. The myth that calcium from dairy products is not absorbed is not supported by scientific research. Other good sources include sardines, canned salmon, green leafy vegetables, and tofu.

The family of the Arizona police officer killed in the line of duty are filing a lawsuit against the Yuma truck driver who hit him.
Jorge Espinoza was driving a tractor-trailer rig on May 6 when it struck the patrol vehicle of DPS Officer Tim Huffman as part of a multi-vehicle collision near Dateland, about 65 miles east of Yuma.
The attorney for Huffman's twin brother Warren Huffman, Jr. and his father, Warren Huffman, Sr. filed the lawsuit against Espinoza and Evans Dedicated Systems in the Superior Court of Arizona.
The complaint alleges that Espinoza violated federal regulations by using his cell phone while driving and that he "intentionally covered the in-cab dash camera with his wallet" to hide what he was doing.
The dash cam video shows the cell phone flying from Espinoza's hand at the time of the collision.
The police report stated Espinoza was looking at photos of "several women in provocative positions, wearing little clothing."
Espinoza pleaded not guilty to one count of second-degree murder, 13 counts of endangerment and seven counts of criminal damage.
The crash happened as Huffman was writing a report at an accident site on Interstate 8 in eastern Yuma County.
Espinoza was not injured in the crash.
DPS spokesman Bart Graves said Huffman was a 14-year veteran of the state agency who was assigned to the southern Arizona bureau and worked his entire career in the Yuma district.
Huffman was the 29th DPS officer killed in the line of duty.

The Henrico school district says its trying to come up with a redistricting plan that's balanced and fair, so it will have another meeting Thursday night to hear from the public.
The meeting will be held at Hermitage High School at 6 p.m. It remains a controversial issue ever since school leaders proposed pulling students from their current schools in order to open a new school next year.
We've seen how concerned many Henrico County parents are about redistricting from past meetings on the same topic.
With the opening of a new elementary school in the fall, students from as many as 13 schools will be shuffled to various schools to make sure all schools are balanced. Many parents have made it clear they don't want their current attendance zones changed at all.
There are three proposals on the table, two created by parent volunteers and one by school personnel. Parents will weigh in on which ones they support. The board will make a decision a week from Thursday.
School officials are asking neighborhoods to pick a designated spokesperson to speak for the neighborhood so there aren't multiple people voicing the same concerns.
Also those wanting to speak out are encouraged to contact the school board prior to Thursday's meeting.

I have fired guns only once in my life, on a stag party to the Czech capital Prague a few years ago when part of the itinerary included a trip to an indoor shooting range. For three hours, our group were let loose on everything from Magnum 45 handguns and Glock pistols, to high-powered 'sniper' rifles and pump-action shotguns.
It was controlled, legal, safe and undeniably exciting. But it also showed me, quite demonstrably, that guns are killing machines.
Rarely has the hideous effect of a gun been more acutely laid bare than at Sandy Hook elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, two weeks ago – when a deranged young man called Adam Lanza murdered 20 schoolchildren aged six and seven, as well as six adults, in a sickening rampage.
Speaking out: Piers Morgan angered 90,000 gun-lovers in the US when he spoke out about gun control
The Sandy Hook massacre brought back such horribly vivid memories for me of Dunblane, the worst mass shooting in Britain in my lifetime.
I was editor of the Daily Mirror on that day back in 1996 and will never forget the appalling TV footage of those poor Scottish mothers sprinting to the small primary school, many already howling with anguish at the thought of what might have happened to their five-year-old children.
It was a slaughter so senseless, so unspeakable, that it reduced even hard-bitten news reporters, including me, to tears.
And as I watched the parents at Sandy Hook racing to try to find their children, I saw the same images, the same terror, that engulfed Dunblane. And I felt the same tears welling up.
Then, 16 five-year-old children were slain in their classroom. Now, 20 six- and seven-year-olds. Beautiful young lives snuffed out before they had a chance to fulfil any of their potential. It made me so gut-wrenchingly angry.
I have four children. And I still remember the blind terror I felt when I lost my son Stanley, then aged two, for half an hour at a cricket match on a field surrounded by a small running creek. I was sure he'd drowned. But I was lucky: he finally emerged from where he'd been hiding – big, cheeky grin intact.
Every parent has a similar story. To even try to conceive of how you would feel if your child was shot multiple times in the head by a Rambo madman at school is just impossible. I honestly don't know how you would ever carry on with life.
But my anger turned to blind rage when I saw the reaction to this hideous massacre in America.
Eager to buy: After the Sandy Hook massacre, sales of the specific weapon used, an AR-15 assault rifle (pictured) rocketed
Gun frenzy: People crowd the RK Gun Show in the Smokies in Knoxville, Tennessee on Friday, December 28, 2012. Sales of high-capacity bullet magazines have also risen
Sales of the specific weapon used, an AR-15 military-style assault rifle, rocketed at gun stores all over America in the days following the Sandy Hook shooting.
And the country's biggest gun supplier, Brownells, said it sold more high-capacity bullet magazines in three days than it normally did in three-and-a-half years.
What is behind this apparently insane behaviour? The answer is, mainly, fear.
The well-organised, richly funded, vociferous pro-gun lobby were straight out, on my CNN show and many other media outlets, declaring that the only way those schoolchildren would have survived is if their teachers had been armed. It's been their answer to every mass shooting.
After the shootings at a cinema in Aurora, Colorado, in July – where 70 people were hit, the worst victim-count in such an incident in US history, and 12 people died – sales of guns in the state rose by a staggering 41 per cent in the following month as people bought into the theory that if everyone in the theatre had been armed too, they'd have stopped the shooter. Can you imagine the scene as 200 people pulled out guns and started blazing away in a dark theatre?
The gun-lobby logic dictates that the only way to defend against gun criminals is for everyone else to have a gun, too. Teachers, nurses, clergymen, shop assistants, cinema usherettes – everyone must be armed.
To me, this is a warped, twisted logic that bears no statistical analysis and makes no sense. Do you fight drug addiction with more cocaine? Alcoholism with more Jack Daniel's? Of course not.
But woe betide anyone who dares suggest this. In the days following Sandy Hook, I interviewed a number of gun-rights representatives and grew increasingly furious as they trotted out these hackneyed old disingenuous lines.
Outspoken: Morgan called gun advocate Larry Pratt 'an unbelievably stupid man' on his show last week
Finally, I erupted at one of them, a man with the unfortunate name of Larry Pratt, who runs the Gun Owners of America lobbying group.
'You,' I eventually declared, 'are an unbelievably stupid man.'
And that was the catalyst for the full wrath of the gun lobby to crash down on my British head.
A petition was created on an official White House website demanding my deportation for 'attacking the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution'. This, of course, is the one that alludes to an American's 'right to bear arms'.
The concerted effort to get me thrown out of the country – which has so far gathered more than 90,000 signatures – struck me as rather ironic, given that by expressing my opinion I was merely exercising my rights, as a legal US resident, under the 1st Amendment, which protects free speech.
But no matter.
This gun debate is an ongoing war of verbal attrition in America – and I'm just the latest target, the advantage to the gun lobbyists being that I'm British, a breed of human being who burned down the White House in 1814 and had to be forcefully deported en masse, as no American will ever be allowed to forget – Special Relationship notwithstanding.
It's no exaggeration to say that America's unique fondness for guns pretty much got cemented by hatred of us Brits and the War of Independence. But the main reason the more fervent gun-rights activists give is a fear of their own US federal government using its army to impinge on their freedom. The problem is that America's historical love of guns means the country is now awash with them – and with gun death.
Outrage: A petition on an official White House website demanding Piers Morgan's deportation had garnered more than 40,000 signatures by Monday afternoon
The bare statistics say it all. There are 311 million people in the United States and an estimated 300 million guns in circulation. (Between four million and seven million new firearms are manufactured in the US every year.)
Take out children from the population figure, and that's comfortably more than one gun per person.
Each year, on average, 100,000 Americans are shot with a gun. Of these, over 31,000 are fatalities, 11,000 of them murders and 18,000 suicides. More than a million people have been killed with guns in America since 1968 when Dr Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy were assassinated.
