Driver not faulted in Rodney Smith bicycle fatality on Sand Hill Road

How is it possible to know the cyclist was making a u-turn when there were no witnesses (other than the driver -- who, of course, cannot be trusted for obvious reasons)? Also, I find it incredibly strange (unlikely?) that the car was going 35 mph -- the speed zone for that road is 50 isn't it?
on Jun 28, 2007 at 9:55 pm
This doesn't pass the smell test. How could he have been thrown 46 feet plus the stopping distance if the driver was going 35 mph? The speed limit there is 55. Why was all the debris in the bike lane? This just doesn't make any sense at all unless the CHP is just trying to whitewash the situation and be done with it.
on Jun 29, 2007 at 6:29 am
"Concerned"'s comments highlight how poorly the above article informs our community about the conclusive information the CHP report contains regarding this terrible accident. The Almanac staff needs to read and then report from the entire CHP report. Then, an article could provide a fact-based update to our community and hopefully end speculation and assumptions. A thorough article would then serve to educate our cyclists and drivers on lessons learned from this horrible situation and we could try to move on a little wiser.
Because this accident involved two upstanding and deeply rooted members of our community, it would also be wise for the editorial staff and community to be respectful and base comments on the facts instead of assumptions. And importantly, be sensitive to the immense pain and sorrow that this tragedy must be causing everyone involved.

What's New In Apple TV 7.0
The Apple TV has been through numerous software iterations since it was introduced in 2007, more frequently changing its user interface than any other Apple platform. This week, the fourth beta release of Apple TV Software 7.0 appeared, introducing a refreshed interface based upon the "flat" theme developed for iOS 7 and 8. Icons, fonts, and other changes to the Apple TV interface are apparent in the latest beta, so users will have a pretty good idea of what to expect when the final version appears later this year.
Software 7.0 does away with the blue highlighting and reflections found in prior versions of the Apple TV user interface. App icons and text now appear against a jet black backdrop, with a rounded white box indicating the currently selected icon.
Reflections are sill apparent in the artwork found at the top of the screen, at least for now.
In addition to removing reflections from icons, Apple has thinned the font used to label the icons, and what used to be only 3.75 rows of simultaneously viewable icons has expanded to 4.1 rows. Fonts across the entire interface are thinner wherever possible, a change that's particularly noticeable with very large text.
The glowing blue highlight bar found at the top of the screen has shifted to a white outline, similar to the classic storage capacity badges found on iPods, iPhones, and iPads. Apple has also done away with perspective-angled iTunes Store banners in favor of flat sliding banners.
Small tweaks to icons, such as the phrase "iTunes Extras Preview" appearing instead of "Preview iTunes Extras," differentiate versions 6 and 7 of the Apple TV Software.
Recently added iTunes Extras for certain HD movies now look somewhat more consistent with the new Apple TV interface.
Most of the version 7 UI looks similar to what has been seen in version 6, though some of the UI changes — including large top-of-screen graphics for some movies and TV shows in the iTunes Store — were quietly rolled out on Apple's servers in the middle of version 6's run.
The replacement of blue text boxes and selection indicators with white may be less colorful than before, but it definitely increases your ability to see both types of elements from a distance.
Third-party app UIs all incorporate the changes automatically, as shown in Netflix's app.
Skeuomorphic elements eliminated from iOS, such as textured picture frames, are still evident in Apple TV 7.0's screensavers. Since this is a beta version of the software, it's possible that Apple will continue to whitewash the textures out before 7.0 makes its official public debut.
Family Sharing has been added to version 7.0, continuing support for the iTunes Store account-bundling feature that links multiple iTunes accounts together to share movies, TV shows, music, and more.
Selecting the Family Sharing text will bring up separate accounts of family members, media from which can be individually selected and browsed through.
Apple has also made some further changes to the video playback UI, removing the old translucent scrubber pane in favor of a simpler set of bars, floating play/rewind/fast forward icons, and text.
In addition to the changes found above, Apple has added support for the updated iCloud Photos photo sharing feature to software version 7.0, and is also incorporating yet-to-be-discussed compatibility with upcoming HomeKit home automation accessories. Speculation suggests that the Apple TV might serve as a hub for managing or monitoring HomeKit devices, though iPads and other iOS devices could do so, as well.
For the time being, the updated Apple TV beta software is only available for recent 1080p resolution versions of the Apple TV hardware; a version with support for earlier 720p devices is not yet available. This may well change before the software is released.
We'll continue to monitor the new Apple TV beta releases as the official debut of version 7.0 comes closer, and update this article if anything significant changes between now and then.

When the weather gets chilly, warm up friends and family with this easy-to-prepare entree from our Test Kitchen. Topped with feta cheese and laced with a hint of wine, the aroma as it simmers will make mouths water! TIP: Look for tomato paste in a tube--it's great when you just need to use a tablespoon or two, and it keeps for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
- 6 ounces uncooked linguine
- 1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cups sliced plum tomatoes
- 1/2 cup white wine or reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
- Cook linguine according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, saute the shrimp, onion and garlic in oil for 3-5 minutes or until shrimp turn pink.
- Add the tomatoes, wine or broth, tomato paste, oregano, salt and pepper flakes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Drain linguine; top with shrimp mixture. Sprinkle with feta cheese and parsley. Yield: 4 servings.

@FGCU_MTEN Rattles Florida A&M With a 7-0 Shutout
FORT MYERS, Fla. – With a dramatic atmosphere set by fog encompassing the illuminated courts, the FGCU men's tennis team earned its first sweep of the season with a commanding 7-0 victory over Florida A&M on Saturday night at the FGCU Tennis Complex.
The Eagles move to move to 3-5 on the season while FAMU falls to 4-8.
"Tonight was another step in the right direction," head coach CJ Weber said. "We are playing disciplined tennis and getting rewarded for it. Next week we host UNF in our conference opener and definitely need to be prepared to step things up in that match."
The Green and Blue jumped to an early lead and never looked back as they clinched the double point for the fourth-consecutive match. Posting the first win in swift fashion were Jordi Vives (Barcelona, Spain/IES Ferran Tallada/USC) and Dean Tsamas (Lexington, Ky./Henry Clay HS) with an 8-3 decision on FAMU's Rodney Carey Jr. and Admire Mushonga. Picking up the point-earning victory were Lucas Vaz (Sao Paulo, Brazil/Colegio Fleming/Tulsa) and Chris Perrigan (Tallahassee, Fla./Maclay HS) with a hard-fought win on Zack Evenden and Carols Agustin Waitman, 8-7 (4).
The Eagles remained dominant in singles play, winning each of the six matches in straight-sets. Making quick work of FAMU's Jalen Evans was FGCU co-captain Lance Lvovsky (Dania, Fla./Broward Virtual School/Jacksonville) with a no-nonsense 6-1, 6-1, win in the No. 6 slot to bring the Eagles their second point of the night.
"Today was a great day for the team," Lvovsky said. "We all competed hard and brought the energy on every single court. I speak on behalf of all the captains when I say I'm proud of Perrigan for getting a win in his first dual-match appearance this season. Overall, tonight was a fantastic victory for the team and we're looking forward to getting back out there in preparation for UNF next week."
Bringing in FGCU's third point was Tianyu Bao (Tianjin, China/Bayshore HS) with an impressive 6-4, 6-1 win over Evenden just minutes before No. 93 Vives topped Carey Jr., 6-1, 6-4, on the next court over.
Playing the two-singles slot was Tsamas, who proved to be too much for Mushonga as he soared to a 6-1, 6-2 win. Winning his contest by a four-game margin in both sets was Gabriel Echeverry (Popayan, Colombia/Gimnasio Calibio) dismissing Courage Okungbowa, 6-2, 6-2, in the No. 5 match.
Rounding out the perfect evening and bringing Eagle fans to their feet was Vaz with a 6-3, 6-4 defeat of Waitman.
The Green and Blue will get back to the baseline and open up play in the Atlantic Sun Conference as they welcome UNF to The Nest on Mar. 2 at Noon.

Did 16 x 25m at 1 minute next because I was kinda tired then. 21-23 seconds.
No S&C today because I had Doctor's App. follow-up for my asthma breathing test. Which was good.

Today's WODGood Mornings 95#
Ran 2 miles for a shake out.
Started to do the WOD (120# DL and 3 rounds in) and then walked away. I have been racing cycling or triathlon for over 15 weeks straight. This weekend was the team road race championship (cycling). It was in a heavy cold down pour for 2 hours of hard racing and attacks to answer. I think today I reached the point that my body asked for a vacation.
I have a 3 week break until next race. I think I might try out recovery for a bit.

RE:Am I doing this right?Pete-- No you are not doing it correctly. 3S athletes are doing the swim wod of 15 or 16 or 17or 18 ...25.X 25 y/m repeats.
You determine the number of repeats you do based on the distance race or event you are training for.
For the run wod 3S or SS on Tuesday complete 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 400 meter repeats.
Questions such as this are answered in the Endurance FAQ linked at the top of the page.

I just wanted to set up a post to see if anyone wanted to correlate meeting with other CFC members for the first game of the season. After seeing the camaraderie of the commentariat for the games in the United States, I thought it would be fun for some of us in the same area code to celebrate or commiserate together for the first game of the season.
I live near Seattle and will be heading to Fados in downtown to watch the game. I'll probably be there around 7 am to root against the Scum with a friend of mine. I would love to have anyone else come and meet us there. Also, I hope that this post can be used for those of you in other parts of the country trying to meet up for the game as I know there are many of you in NYC, near DC and around LA. I hope to see a few of you on Saturday.

A federal judge has sentenced Huntington resident Cory Lynn McCourt to 18 months in prison for possession with intent to deliver cocaine base, more commonly known as crack cocaine.
McCourt pleaded guilty in October to the federal drug violation.
U.S. Attorney Booth Goodwin said officers responding to a domestic violence call at McCourt's home in Huntington in May 2010 observed a tan, chunky substance they believed to be crack on her sofa. Upon questioning, they said McCourt admitted the crack belonged to her and that she'd been selling it for five months.
McCourt shared the residence with Brandon Golson, who in January was sentenced to seven years and three months in federal prison for distribution of heroin, crack and oxycodone pills in the Huntington area.

In March 2007, CCAC and the California University of Pennsylvania (CalU) completed an articulation agreement that would allow students taking prescribed courses for their associate degree in Computer and Information Science to transfer all earned credits toward completion of a CalU bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering Technology. In the process, students can save thousands of dollars while still completing a bachelor's degree in four years!
If you are interested in this program, it is suggested that students first contact a CalU or CCAC Counselor before enrolling for courses. The various recommended Electronics courses are only offered at CCAC's South Campus.
The following are the prescribed courses and their sequence that will fullfill both the AS Computer and Information Science and transferring to CalU in the third year of their BS Computer Engineering Technology program:
First Semester
Second Semester
Third Semester
Fourth Semester
1 CalU requires the following CCAC mathematics classes to be taken in the first two years:
A student needs to discuss with a counselor the appropriate sequence of mathematics courses and any remedial courses, based on their high school mathematics capabilities and/or placement test scores.
2 CalU allows the algebra-based PHY141 Physics 1 and PHY142 Physics 2 courses to be taken in place of PHY221 Physics for Science and Engineering 1 and PHY222 Physics for Science and Engineering 2.

Use it to baste not only the basics like burgers, brats, chicken and steak, but also veggies, fish and kabobs. For even more smoky sizzle, mix TABASCO® Chipotle Sauce with melted butter.
TABASCO® Chipotle Sauce is to dressings what dressings are to salads. Its smoky goodness enhances the flavor of any dressing—all the ones restaurant servers rattle off. Just mix our sauce with a dressing and top your favorite salad, or use as a veggie dip. You can also stir TABASCO® Chipotle Sauce into store-bought sides to infuse them with smoky flavor.
TABASCO® Chipotle Sauce is a cookout and tailgating favorite because it adds smoky flavor and mild heat to condiments, sauces, spreads and dips. Whether these are homemade or store-bought, just stir in Chipotle Sauce to take them up a notch. Tip: our recipes suggest a specific amount of Chipotle Sauce, but be adventurous and season to taste!
For grilled corn on the cob, veggies, meat and more. Makes anything that goes on the grill taste better at the table.
Works magic at BBQs: while grilling chicken or pork, baste it with this sweet, smoky sauce and it will disappear!
Use it in place of mayonnaise when making coleslaw or potato salad to add sizzle to those sides. It also makes a delicious dip!
This spread adds lots of smoky flavor to sandwiches, and adds zest to dips, potato salads and any other dish that calls for plain mayonnaise.
If you like iceberg lettuce wedges, wings and roast beef sandwiches with plain blue cheese dressing, you'll love them with the added smoky flavor!
Easy to remember: add 5 tablespoons of our sauce and baste during the last 5 minutes of grilling for a BBQ with bite you won't forget!
What's even more flavorful than basting steaks and burgers with this sauce on the grill? Pouring more on when they are grilled to perfection!
After you grill burgers to get that smoky BBQ flavor, pour on this kicked-up ketchup and double the deliciousness.
Relish rich, smoky flavor and mild heat added to your favorite salsa. Enjoy with chips and crudités.
Dip tortilla chips into this mildly hot and smoky combo, and dress sandwiches and burgers with it by spreading it on!
A creamier choice alongside guacamole and salsa with tortilla chips, this dip doubles as a spread for burgers and sandwiches.
Use as the base for a fresh or grilled vegetable wrap, or as a spread that makes raw celery stalks more exciting.

A 10-year-old Smyrna, Georgia boy got an early holiday present when his dad surprised him at school by coming home early from Afghanistan.
Fourth-grader Anthony Green hadn't seen his dad since February when 1st Sgt. Andre Green was deployed to a remote part of Afghanistan.
For the past nine months, 1st Sgt. Green planned the top secret mission to surprise his son at Teasly Elementary School.
"I thought it would be a good idea to just come up here and surprise him that way since we're so close," said Green.
The boy's mother said that the 10-year-old expected his father back for the holidays, but didn't know exactly when he'd see him again.
After landing on Monday night, Green stunned his son at school Tuesday morning.
After an emotional hug, the excited son took his father to class for show and tell.
"I know Anthony always talks about his dad nearly daily, always says he's his hero and just as well his father always talks about him and says how proud he is of his son so I know that this is making both of their days," said Tanya Green, the boy's stepmother.
Anthony says he cannot wait to play XBox and football with his dad.
The family is asking for prayers for other military families this holiday season.

Tools :
Starch with Freezer Paper.

While fabric designing newbies, we thought you might like to know more about our approach to fabric design, and how we got here. Join April and I as we share what we know :)
Our process and inspiration – both unique, with similar results in fabric design.
I tend to use and manipulate shapes in Illustrator, starting in black and white, then add the neutral palette.
April sketches, then scans it in to Illustrator, to manipulate the design and add color.
Books we both have used as resources :
A Field Guide to Fabric Design
Mastering the Art of Fabric
Digital Textile Design
How to Enter the World of Textile Design
Spoonflower can be a great tool.
Designing fabric is not a fast process, something to be working toward as you develop your skills.

Team Joyous after the Race for the Cure by Team Joyous - 10 months ago
"This is part of our team after Susan G Komen Race for the Cure in Nashville,TN. Our friend Joy lost her battle with breast cancer on September 30,2013. This is the 3rd year for Team Joyous and we had 35 people walk in her honor and we raised over $2500 to help find a cure for breast cancer this year. It was a very emotional day for a lot of us. I loved working with CustomInk, it was the easiest, fastest and best customer service ever. "

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 137 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Luckee6 Great bed My husband and I stayed at the Meridian because of its 5 star status and a show at the Orpheum theater across the street (we live about 5 miles away). We also wanted a luxurious night away from kids. First, the bed was plush and extremely comfortable and was topped with the extra pillows; which, I requested, I'm 8.5 months pregnant. Second, the room and bathroom were clean, and the bathroom floors are heated, which was a very nice home away from home feature. Third, everyone at the front desk and in the bar and restaurant, were all quite friendly and my husband enjoyed his drinks at Marin. HOWEVER, these are my cons: First, the food from room service, which as I understand is made in the restaurant, was under seasoned/bland/tasteless. The chef seems to be trying too hard at originality, but should really focus on good taste. Second, the food selections were minimal, I understand having a small contemporary menu but, more than one sandwich option after 11:30 pm would be nice. I dont know how hungry someone needs to be for a $27 turkey and avacado sandwich. I recommend eating somewhere else or don't stay for the food service. Third, the housecleaning staff began knocking at 10 am to clean (checkout is noon) and did this 3x total from 10-11:30am. Unnecessary! My husband and I were quite annoyed by this. All in all, it was average, I expected much more: better food, more than 3 towels, a better view, and whatever happened to free coffee? I think I ate a small bag of $3.00 sunchips because the late night food options were terrible. I almost ate the $6.00 candy bar but couldn't justify it...... JUST, weigh your other options, there are a lot of hotels in the city. April 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Manju Best Stay Ever! We came to Le Meridian to stay for our wedding night. The concierge was dealing with a disgruntled guest ahead of us and was very accommodating and professional. The check-in was a breeze! The blonde who checked us in noticed it was our wedding night and even sent us a gift! It made our night even more special. We will definitely be back. August 16, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jamesve Great Experience We had a wonderful time. We called ahead to ask for an early arrival and the staff was great and got us in as soon as we arrived. The room was fantastic. The service was wonderful. We will stay hear again and again. February 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by SPGPlatinum111111 Great Choice in Minneapolis Le Meridien in Minneapolis continues to be one of the top spots to stay when you are in the twin cities. Rooms are extremely comfortable, staff if extremely accommodating and location is great. Only negative is the tiny gym and no concierge lounge. If you are going to Minneapolis anytime soon i highly recommend this hotel. August 3, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Eyespysuz Great City Location and Comfort Felt immediately at home because of great staff! Everyone was very friendly and helpful "above and beyond" duty. Restaurant staff was fantastic also--great service and attitudes all around. Even though I am not a great tipper, they STILL treated me with outstanding courtesy and service. December 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Fronoz All the things a growing boy needs Spent a lot of time in the fitness room this last trip. The Treadmill and I became frien-emies. There is also a sampling of free weights, ellipticals and a bike. Lots of room to stretch and get what you need done. My other favorite spot is the Bar. Inside or Out always a good time. Ross is fantastic. Ask him for a special creation or just stick with the Pararossa... the late night margarita pizza is something I look forward to on trips to the twin cities. The bed is one of the most comfortable I've slept in. I love the space I have to spill out of my suitcase. Being a bigger guy, the large showers are wonderful. I do wish there was a little more room around the sink for my shaving kit, but I always seem to make due. James at the front desk is great. Always seems to be on top of things, even when I make my odd and strange requests. Always happy to help, and usually pretty good with a joke if you need it. All in all, this is one of those places I actually enjoy traveling too. August 10, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by bren5 Nice location, but service needs improvement Staff checking guests in and out, represents your hotel and sets the mood of your stay. My experience with checking in was horrible, he was rude and presented a desire to be anywhere but at work. The room was nice, but should be in complete working order when hosting guests. Room service was prompt. November 27, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rapper99 The customer service was impeccable. The hotel staff went above and beyond anything I could have asked for!! They took it upon THEMSELVES to place my newlywed son in the best room the hotel offered - as a gift to them. Le Meridien's generosity truly moved me to tears. I have NEVER experienced such fantastic customer relations! May 28, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 friendly and amazing staff! modern and awesome hotel suite staff was very friendly and very helpful. it was my birthday and they treated me like a real honorable guest. beautiful room decor and hotel lobby. the top floor suites are amazing I would highly recommend! the customer service there is truly impeccable. LOVED IT. WANT TO STAY AGAIN :) August 10, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by JQ44 it was ok it was nice but... bathroom did not have enough counter space. we were supposed to receive "goodie bags" upon arrival but didn't. Had to ask for the bag when we checked out. Would have never knew about the bag unless bride asked how we enjoyed it. Bedding was wonderful. Great view. July 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5��by Camie22 Wonderful and Accommodating We stayed here for our wedding, but I stayed there the night before. Not only were the staff helpful, but also were accommodating when we used their facilities to take photos for our bridal party. It was a great place, where we felt well taken care of and comfortable. Thank you! June 13, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by briand Great property for business or pleasure I now frequent this SPG property in Minneapolis because of the great rooms, the affordable rates and the restaurant. The gym could use some updating but besides that, a gem in the heart of Minneapolis. January 30, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Lbk42 Cold shower My room had a broken shower. No hot water. After 3 days of asking, finally it was adjusted but not fixed. I was told the part was too expensive to stock and not to move the valve all the way to hot or it would fall off! Restaurant closed, below average food being served. April 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lovestennis1 This hotel covers ALL of a traveler's needs We stayed at Le Meridian with a baby, which I don't think they have as a guest terrribly often, and it couldn't have been easier. The rooms were large enough that he could run around and treat it like home! Service was above and beyond anything we could have asked for! June 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by JohnGtxex Incredible Hotel! This was by far one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in! Every single staff member that we encountered wanted to help us and was polite and accommodating. I cannot say enough about how nice they made our stay in Minneapolis. We will definitely stay here again! August 13, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by agfan Good stay Minneapolis has a number of great Starwood options, and this was my first stay at the Chambers. No Platinum upgrade, but hotel is small so that happens. Room was nice and spacious. No counter space in bathroom. Fitness center is small but with good equipment. October 8, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by AJL321 Amazing Hotel! I was so pleasantly surprised when I checked in to my room that I extended my stay for an additional day. The room was oversized, had a great work station, and the most comfortable bed and pillows. It was just an exceptional stay and I cannot wait to return. June 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Privacyman Hotel is still being renovated but doing a great job Loved the room - very comfortable and quiet. I liked the Chambers cafe for breakfast - well prepared and prompt. Friendly and accommodating staff. Would definitely stay here again if in Minneapolis. Should be even better once the Marin restaurant is done. June 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Christoph My favorite Le Meridien... Superior interior design, better service at check-in and in the restaurant. Good food and extensive nutritional info on menu...on so many levels so much better than other good hotels. January 21, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by donnaJK Tough experience The room was beautiful. It was clean. Could use free wifi. The breakfast was good, but would have liked coffee pot in room or room service. The biggest issue was I'm guessing the pipes. Must be old building and I slept horribly due to all the noise. April 27, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by golfer123 Great Hiotel and great restaurant. what a great hotel and location!! the room and decor are second to none and the most comfortable bed ever. the staff from front desk to the bar could not have been nicer to our group and treated us like we where vips the entire time. what a treat. July 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by BiggestD Hotel has great features Luxury suite was awesome! March 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Christoph This hotel is a work of art. This compact hotel in Le Meridien design is particularly remarkable for its numerous works of modern art dispersed all over the hotel. Our executive room was exceptionally well designed. The best of our most recent 30 stays at SPG properties. April 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by LizaLeader79 Will definitely go back to Le Meridien! Nice boutique hotel. Quiet and trendy. Because the floors in the bathroom are heated, the room stayed too warm, so be aware. Other than that, it was excellent! I will go again. January 13, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by kissyfur39 Excellent staff The staff was very professional and nice. They were timely with requests. we were very pleased and surprised with our upgraded room at no extra charge. it made our postponed first wedding anniversary that much more special. October 29, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by bac19 One of my favorites in the starwood chain Love the comfortable rooms and professional staff, the "art gallery" theme throughout the entire hotel, and the fabulous restaurant. Plus, the location is super convenient. I travel a lot and this is one of my all around favorites! May 20, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Unclebuck Great weekend at The Chambers My wife was in the wedding party and we used most of the hotel. Highlight was Marie in the bar stayed Friday night after she was cut to take care of us!! Staff was on top of everything. Great Weekend Great Stay . August 12, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Robbiek33 This hotel is great! I love everything about this hotel. The location, the artsy feel, the funkiness gives it a special, distinct sense that is so attractive in so many ways; it's "outside the box". Highly recommend staying here. March 28, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by daterzano Excellent Stay! My husband and I were thrilled with our stay this past weekend. We had an incredible time, celebrating our 21st anniversary together there and the staff made it even more special. We will be back for sure! February 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jackie2727 So modern, comfortable and luxurious! What a gem of a hotel! So modern and luxurious, it was the most comfortable bed we've ever slept on. We booked on a third party website and were so delighted that I was still given an upgrade as a SPG. May 20, 2013

Business cards.
Wait! Don't change the channel yet!
We promise you that business cards don't have to be stuffy, expensive or soul-crushingly dull, especially photographers' cards.
In fact, your cards should be more creative than anybody's, especially when the economy's gone all pear-shaped. An artistic card will make people remember you/ think you're awesome/ give you money.
Want proof? OK! We've found 12 smart, well-designed cards that deserve a place of honor in any art buyer's contact list.
12 Awesome Photography Business Card Ideas
Photo credit: dailypoetics
Why You Need a Good Business Card
Have you ever bought a book because you really liked the cover? Your business card is exactly like that: it's the first impression people have of you as a photographer. Cliché, yes, but true. A great-looking card makes people think you're smart, have great taste, and must therefore be a fantastic photographer.
The Basics
Know your market: When designing your business cards, think about the people you want to hire you: If you're selling prints on Etsy, a handmade aesthetic will go a long way. If you're hoping GQ will send you on assignment, you should go for a more sophisticated, polished look.
Image: If you want a photo on your business card, choose an iconic image that really represents your style. However, you must be prepared to be completely sick of that picture by the time the cards run out.
Nothing says photographers have to have photos on their cards, though. If your work has a characteristic color palette, choose one or several of those colors and use them instead of a photo. That way if you decide to overhaul your portfolio with all-new photos, you won't get stuck with an old picture on your business cards.
Lettering: The font on your cards may seem like a trivial detail, but art buyers and photo editors really pay attention to it. Make it simple and easy to read.
Time-tested, classic fonts make you seem more design-savvy (even if you only have the ones that came installed on your computer). When in doubt, use Helvetica. Times is also your friend. Comic Sans, Impact and Courier are your mortal enemies and should never ever be used. Ever.
Inspiration: We've rounded up a dozen cards that we really like. Don't plagiarize 'em or anything, but use them as inspiration when you're designing your own.
1. Concept
One tiny hole punched in the card can be a camera aperture, a pinhole, or just a new way of looking at things.
2. Contrast
3. Hidden Meaning
4. Alternative Pictures
5. Special Materials
You could make these yourself with inkjet-printable transparencies and a good quality printer. The extra thought and special materials you put into it will keep it from being dismissed as amateur.
6. Urban DIY
A card like this (a label slapped on a discarded transit pass) would be perfect for an urban fashion photographer or underground photojournalist.
7. Crafty Details
8. Die-Cut
9. Odd Size
Don't make your card larger than the standard size though. It won't fit in a business card holder, but it will fit nicely in the garbage can.
10. Folded
Custom-printed cards like this could get expensive, but the extra thought and effort it shows would probably justify making them yourself.
11. Multiple Photos
12. Mini-Portfolio
Though time-consuming to make, these let you show a wider sample of your work, and people will definitely remember them.
Getting a Card Designed
If you don't have good design skills, bribe a graphic designer or hire somebody like NBCreative to design a card for you.
Many online printing sites (like 4×6, Hotcards and Modern Postcard) provide design services for an extra charge, or provide templates you can use.
Pros: Looks professional and you can get a large batch printed at one time.
Cons: Can be expensive (especially if you get special die-cuts, inks or materials). Factor in time for production and shipping, and be sure to get a test proof before finalizing your order.
Making Your Own Cards
If you have some design training and know what you want, you can design your own business cards in Photoshop, Illustrator or Quark.
Upload your design to an online printing site (we hear good things about OvernightPrints and PremiumCards) or take it to a local printer to have it done professionally.
If you decide to print your cards at home, craftsmanship and quality must be paramount. Use a high-quality printer, good heavy paper and a paper-trimmer. Uneven edges, fingerprints or flimsy paper will make people think you're careless or unprofessional.
Adding handmade touches like stitching, textured paper, or special folds will show people that you put special effort into your cards and didn't just make them at home to save money.
Pros: Less expensive and easy to make on short notice (like the night before a show).
Cons: Too time-consuming to make large batches and needs special attention to detail and materials.

Kappa Sigma Fraternity Organizes Pancake Breakfast for Fisher House(Painesville, Ohio) - On April 13, members of the local Kappa Sigma Chapter at Lake Erie College will volunteer their time to host a Pancake Breakfast, as part of the organization's Spring Semester International Day of Service.
Across the U.S. and Canada, thousands of college undergraduate and alumni members of Kappa Sigma will participate in the event, volunteering their time for service projects and philanthropic fundraisers to benefit hundreds of non-profit organizations within their local communities.
Locally, fraternity members have been working for months to gather sponsors to support the event, which will be held at the Zion Lutheran Church in Painesville from 8:00am to 1:00pm and include a meal of pancakes and breakfast meat, a Chinese Auction, and a 50/50 Raffle.
"Though we're a smaller chapter of Kappa Sigma, it's awesome to be part of a huge international event, such as this Day of Service, where all Kappa Sigma's from across North America will be participating in different service projects in their communities," said Francisco Reynoso, President of Lake Erie College's Kappa Sigma chapter. "And as a Navy Veteran myself, it's especially meaningful that our efforts will benefit the Fisher House."
Matt Conger, Philanthropy Chairman of Lake Erie College's Kappa Sigma Chapter added, "This is the largest fundraising event that the Chapter has attempted in over three years. The Members are especially proud that their efforts are benefiting wounded veterans' families. We are fortunate to partner with the Zion Lutheran Church, just across the street from campus, to host our event."
The Day of Service was created as part of Kappa Sigma's "A Greater Cause" initiative, the international fraternity's ongoing commitment to promote volunteerism, citizenship and service to the community. Kappa Sigma held the first coordinated international day of service for any collegiate social fraternity in October, 2012.
Since the launch of the "A Greater Cause" initiative in 2001, Kappa Sigma has achieved unprecedented levels of volunteerism and philanthropy among its members. During the 2011-2012 academic year alone, Kappa Sigma contributed more than 470,000 volunteer service hours and donated nearly $1.8 million collectively to those in need - a Fraternity record and the most ever for a collegiate social Greek organization in a single year.

Winter 2005
Cabell County – In September, Cabell County homeschoolers who
wanted to use school textbooks ran into some difficulties. Some were told that
the books would not be available until two weeks after the school year began;
others were simply not able to obtain the books they needed.
Imhoff spoke with county personnel and explained the state superintendent's
interpretation on this issue and that it has the force of law. Other
homeschooling parents called the WVDE for help.
appears that the misunderstanding was because some county board of education
personnel are new and unfamiliar with the law. County Superintendent Roach asked
his secretary to make a list of the books which families have requested and
which the depository doesn't have in stock. Also, all schools in the county were
notified to return any textbooks which they have not already placed in
children's hands. The county will probably have to order more books to meet the
needs of the homeschoolers.
followed up a week later with another call to Clare Eastham, a secretary at the
county board of education. "She said that all is well," wrote Nancy. "Any
books that the county book depository does not have, they have ordered,
including Kindergarten workbooks."

What the Caribbean must do about crime
Dear Editor,
This is a response to recent statements on crime and regional dysfunction by Trinidad and Tobago's Minister of National Security Jack Warner.
Caribbean governments' focus on crime has recently taken on increased urgency. Pressures at home from previously silent populations, and from visitors and investors alike noting crime as a factor in deciding where they go, makes the issue one that can no longer be ignored. While many try to blame crime levels on the deportation of criminals from North America and the UK, the reality is probably closer to home: the vaunted social fabric of Caribbean countries is frayed.
Urbanisation and the loss of social and familial community linkages are the problem, some say. This problem is compounded by underemployment among the youth and a lack of programmes that provide skills training for the jobs that are available, leaving many increasingly dependent on an informal job market that offers little in terms of a sustainable future. Weak legal systems, which encourage a sense of impunity by bad actors, are not helpful, and weak border controls that facilitate the inter-island movement of drugs and small arms allow for negative inputs. The use of the region as a hub for illicit trafficking of drugs to the US further strains efforts of governments to protect themselves and their vulnerable populations.
In terms of solutions, an increased focus on community development and outreach programmes from both the political and corporate elite can help to provide young people with limited options for a productive and legal future. That said, corporate social responsibility programming is not yet a fully understood and developed concept in the Caribbean. Finally, adaptation of the traditional school curricula to one that focuses attention on programmes that correspond to current needs can be positive.
The above, combined with community policing initiatives that position trained and trusted law enforcement personnel in host communities, can serve to ensure that fringe populations feel less divorced from upscale and often enclave centres. An improved and efficient legal system that can leverage social initiatives to train and assist first-time offenders can also address recidivism concerns. Introduction of a restorative justice system (successfully implemented in some countries) where it does not exist in the Caribbean may be helpful in this regard.
An interconnected Caribbean region means increased movement of people and goods. The effective sharing of information on crime; people linked to crime; and the movement of guns and drugs are fundamental for any regional success. A sharing of best practices in this arena and the support of these efforts by donor countries such as the United States is critical. Further to the US-Caribbean partnership on addressing crime, a focus by both partners on the development of modular programmes that build on past successes is key, as is the ability of initiatives to survive changes in administrations.
The Caribbean must become a stronger advocate for its interests and needs, articulating plans for implementation rather than wait for the delivery of fully formed solutions from the US.

Ladies, if you're looking to nail a job interview, or maybe get lucky in love, then there's a secret weapon you can use: your make-up!
A French scientist, Dr. Arnaud Aubert, says that flaws distract the brain, which is a big deal when making a first impression. He's authored a number of studies that link appearance and the way people perceive each other. According to him, people with less than flawless skin are ranked lower on the social scale than they otherwise might be.
He says that the area near the eyes, down to the mouth is what he calls "the social triangle." And it is the key to success.
Dr. Aubert found that just a little bit of make-up in this area, actually makes people like you more.
On the other hand, if you put on too much make-up, it back-fires because people are distracted by how much make-up you have on.

"There are major benefits to incorporating these environmentally friendly motorcycles. It costs less than 50 cents to charge compared to using gallons of gas, maintenance is simple, and the community appreciates how quiet they are," reports Officer Steve Carbajal of the L.A.P.D. Off-Road Unit. "Most importantly, our officers have an added tactical advantage while on patrol."
"Police agencies expect that their fleet of motorcycles be reliable, perform in the line of duty, and provide a tactical advantage, and we are proud to provide motorcycles that exceed those expectations," said John Lloyd, Vice President of Global Sales for Zero Motorcycles. "Zero continues to work closely with several police agencies, including the L.A.P.D., to produce a world class engineered police line-up. We continue to grow the support of law enforcement worldwide and are thrilled that the L.A.P.D. will be using our motorcycles."
L.A.P.D. joins a rapidly expanding list of agencies adding Zero Motorcycles to their fleet. Zero's police motorcycles are fully electric and designed exclusively for police and security departments as a cost effective means to patrol a wide variety of terrain and excel in areas with noise and pollution limitations, including indoors. They can be customized with pursuit emergency lighting and sirens, safety components, and plenty of functional storage options to carry gear, patrol items, and emergency medical equipment. Motorcycles are currently available for a three-day evaluation program. Information and applications are available at http://www.zeromotorcycles.com/fleet/promo/evaluation/.

Carlisle police have released surveillance photos of two men suspected of stealing over-the-counter medications at two borough pharmacies, and now say $2,500 worth of drugs was taken from the stores.
Police said Wednesday that the same men are responsible for a third incident at a Rite-Aid pharmacy in Lemoyne, where they attempted to steal $1,700 worth of merchandise Monday afternoon but dropped the goods and fled when they were confronted by employees.
The thefts in Carlisle occurred at CVS pharmacies on East High
Street and South West Street.
Police said an
employee at the South West Street store had been given a description of
the actors in the first theft and saw the suspects in her store. When she went to the door to look for a vehicle, the thieves ran past her and fled.
The suspects were driving an early 2000 model Subaru station wagon that is black with a tan bottom and has a Pennsylvania license plate, police said.
Anyone with information is asked to call Carlisle police at 717-243-5252.

Wilbur Wright was the first pilot to record a bird strike (in 1905), and the first fatal crash attributable to a bird strike came seven years later. But to most members of the non-flying public, the first time aircraft bird strikes became newsworthy was probably in 2009, when a flock of Canada geese sent Chesley Sullenberger's A320 into the Hudson River.
Bird migration
As congestion increases, avoiding collisions between aircraft and birds is becoming a more pressing issue. The Indian Air Force, which conducts many operational and training flights and often at very low level, attributes around 10 percent of accidents to bird hits. It took the lead last year by issuing global bids to four companies for 45 bird detection and monitoring radar systems (BDRS) to be installed at airports and air bases across India.

MT. VERNON – Newly named Jefferson County director Kathy Withers looks forward to bringing a "business perspective" to the Tri-County Electric Cooperative.
Withers was elected by the co-op at the agency's 75th Annual Membership Meeting Saturday. She is the first woman to serve as a co-op director in this county and has owned Holiday Travel in Mt. Vernon for 30 years.
"I'm really looking forward to being on this board," Withers said. "I think it's nice to bring a perspective from the business community. A lot of our directors are from the farming community."
More than 1,700 co-op members were on hand for the annual meeting. In addition to agency business, the event also featured a "live-line" electricity safety demonstration, children's activities, informational booths, and more.
Three directors were elected Saturday, representing the three counties that are covered by the co-op. Withers was named to the Jefferson County seat previously held by Jerry Corners who did not seek re-election. Tom Beyers and Phil Carson were re-elected to their seats, representing Marion County and Washington County respectively.
Each of the three counties has three co-op directors. These directors serve on the agency's nine-member board.
"It's nice to be on that board with people who know where utility is going," Withers said. "We're all looking at rates and trying to figure out how in the future we can serve our members (by) keeping rates as low as possible."
Several speakers addressed the crowd Saturday, providing a history of the organization and discussing more current issues.
Co-op General Manager Marcia Scott said President Obama's recent mandate to reduce carbon emissions from electric power plants is a cause for concern. It could result in the closing of many coal-fired plants and an increase in utility rates.
