The Hinds County Board of Supervisors met Thursday morning to discuss a grand jury's probe into conditions at the jail.
The board quickly went into closed session and shared nothing with reporters afterward.
James Austin, president of a corrections research company called JFA Associates, also attended
The grand jury's service has been extended until the end of the year to give them time to look into the condition of the facility and the health of inmates.
Circuit Court Judge Tomie Green is also ordering a number of Hinds County officials to provide extensive documentation for the grand jury to review.
She's listed 11 items that she wants the county leaders to provide. Some of the items include:
Judge Green ordered county supervisors to provide $20,000 to hire jail experts to assist in the evaluation.
The Hinds County Sheriff's Office released a statement saying the department "appreciates the court's attention and potential involvement in issues plaguing our holding facilities."
The statement also said that members of the Hinds County Board of Supervisors have toured the detention center and "work began towards repairing some of the long standing issues."
According to papers filed with the Hinds County Circuit Clerk, the grand jury is looking at two issues at the jail.
The first questions whether prisoners are being provided with information on the length of their sentence, and any fines they may be responsible for. The second involves an inspection of the county jail, it's condition, and the health of inmates.
According to Mississippi State Law, Sheriff Tyrone Lewis could be charged with a misdemeanor, and fined up to $50 if any violations are found.

I purchased these for our school ice cream social and filled them with helium. We used about 50, and just one was defective. They were a bit pricey compared to plain balloons I could have purchased locally, but I could not resist the festive star design in our school colors blue/white. I plan to use the remaining 50 for our school 8th grade graduation in June.

Elizabeth Warren Releases First Ad Of Senate Campaign (VIDEO)
WASHINGTON -- Elizabeth Warren's Senate campaign has released its first television ad: a largely biographical spot that also leans heavily on positioning Warren as a Washington D.C. outsider. It never once mentions her opponent: Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.).
The spot, which a campaign source says will run statewide, is not a direct response to the negative ads that Republican groups -- namely Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS -- are running against Warren. But it does play off of the notion that the consumer advocate's name and reputation are going to be tarred in the months ahead.
"Before you hear a bunch of ridiculous attack ads, I want to tell you who I am," the spot begins.
The ad, in part, is being funded by a backlash to Rove's spot. In an email to supporters, Warren notes that her campaign has raised $300,000 from donors in response to Crossroads GPS, while simultaneously asking recipients for more money.
Background on Elizabeth Warren:
Introduces Financial Product Safety Commission
Elizabeth Warren announced a bill creating a Financial Product Safety Commission with House and Senate Democrats in March 2009. The body was designed to have oversight over mortgages and other financial instruments to protect consumers against predatory practices. She said if the agency had existed before the subprime collapse then "there would have been millions of families who got tangled in predatory mortgages who never would have gotten them." HuffPost's Ryan Grim reported:
Without all these toxic assets on banks' balance sheets, the institutions wouldn't be on the brink of collapse and the recession would be more manageable. "Consumer financial products were the front end of the destabilization of the American economic system." Sen. Charles Schumer's cosponsorship of the bill is notable because of his proximity to Wall Street. The bill's merit, the New York Democrat said, is that it regulates the actual financial product rather than the company producing it.

Geithner Opposes Her Heading CFPB
Tim Geithner expressed opposition to her nomination for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, reported HuffPost's Shahien Nasiripour. Geithner thought Warren's views on the big banks and Wall St. were too tough. Warren's oversight of the Treasury department as a watchdog for TARP apparently irked Geithner, agressively questioning him during Congressional hearings:
While her grilling of Geithner in September, over what members of Congress have called the "backdoor bailout" of Wall Street through AIG, inspired the "squirm" video, just last month Warren pressed Geithner on the administration's lackluster foreclosure-prevention plan, Making Home Affordable. Criticizing him for Treasury's failure to keep families in their homes, she questioned Treasury's commitment to homeowners.

Ready For A Fight
Elizabeth Warren reiterated her desire for a strong Consumer Financial Protection Agency to HuffPost's Shahien Nasiripour:
"My first choice is a strong consumer agency," the Harvard Law professor and federal bailout watchdog said in an interview with the Huffington Post. "My second choice is no agency at all and plenty of blood and teeth left on the floor."

Named Interim Chief Of CFPB
In September of 2010, HuffPost's Ryan Grim reported that Elizabeth Warren was being considered as a candidate for interim director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Days later the announcement was official. The move allowed Warren to set up the groundwork for the agency immediately without risking a GOP filibuster of her nomination, a response that seemed certain giving the public opposition expressed by some Republican senators. When it came time to put forth an appointment for a longterm CFPB chief, Warren was overlooked, partially because she was seen as unfeasible, but also, HuffPost's Shahien Nasiripour reported, because she was a divisive figure within the Obama administration:
Ultimately, Warren wanted the job, allies said. And near-united opposition from Senate Republicans -- 44 of them signed a letter saying they'd oppose any nominee -- should have made it easier for Obama to nominate her, since the Republicans publicly said they wouldn't support anyone for the role. Instead, the Republicans made it easy for the White House to deflect questions about the administration's lack of support for Warren. Asked how she squared the administration's public statements with its private ones, Warren declined. "I really have to say, I'm just not there. I'm not in the intricacies of the political part of this, and I can't comment," Warren said Monday. "The truth is I don't know anything about it."

Chats With HuffPost About Bureau
In October 2010, shortly after being tasked with building the groundwork for the CFPB, Warren stopped by HuffPost to chat with Ryan Grim and Shahien Nasiripour "This is the first real agency we've built in the 21st century -- well, there's Homeland Security, but one for the people. And it means we ought to think differently," said Warren. "The government can talk to people and people can talk to the government differently than when the Consumer Product Safety Commission was built, or when the FDA was built. And if we do this right, that should change the whole dynamic of who this agency really is." HuffPost's Ryan Grim reported:
By gathering information, contracts and documents from homeowners and consumers, and allowing watchdog groups and individual concerned citizens access to those documents, the agency can exponentially expand the manpower it has to review the operations of banks and lenders. The goal would be to become aware of a particularly fraudulent practice before it is rampant and insulates itself in the financial services industry.

GOP Calls Her A Liar
In May, Warren was called to testify before a House subcommittee and defend the merits of the CFPB. Some of the questions submitted by Republican representatives appeared confused and at times aggressive, leaving Warren to correct them on some basic facts about the actual purpose of the bureau. HuffPost's Mike McCauliff relays one particularly contentious moment:
The subcommittee chairman, Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.), began the proceedings by suggesting Warren had lied to the committee in a previous hearing that had questioned the CFPB's role in offering advice to state attorneys general negotiating a settlement with abusive mortgage servicers. At the time, Warren said she was proud her agency had been able to help, at the request of the treasury secretary. But McHenry brought up the memo again, suggesting it showed that she hid a larger role in the negotiations from Congress. "This is our job, and we're trying to do our job, to be helpful to other agencies, and to help those agencies to hold those who break the law accountable," Warren said, repeating that she was proud of the work.

Announces Senate Run
Elizabeth Warren announced on September 14, 2011 that she was running for the United States Senate seat currently held by Scott Brown (R-Mass.) "After listening to people all across our state who know that we can do better, folks who are frustrated like I am that Washington just doesn't get it, I'm running for the Senate so I can fight every day for Massachusetts families," Warren wrote on The Huffington Post.
One month into her campaign to secure the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Scott Brown in Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren raised $3.15 million, largely from small donations. According to a campaign email, 96 percent of donations were under $100. "These are pretty amazing numbers for our first official finance report, raised in a very short period of time," she said in an email to supporters. Warren's campaign has also attracted large liberal donors, including colleagues from Harvard and well-known liberal donors like George Soros, Barbra Streisand, and DreamWorks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg. Warren raised an impressive $5.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. In early January, the candidate's money bomb pulled in more than $100,000 in just one weekend.
Historic Agreement
Elizabeth Warren and Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) signed a pledge to curb third-party attack ads. If either campaign breaks the agreement, they would donate half the cost of the outside ad to a charity of their opponent's choice. "This may not work," Warren said in an email to supporters. "But there's enough at stake to make it worthwhile to try to take back this election."

Browns fantasy focus
Here's our weekly look at the Browns from a fantasy football perspective.
Mangini explains Harrison trade

Mangini says 'lean' stronger toward McCoy as starter
Browns head coach Eric Mangini indicated Thursday that rookie QB Colt McCoy has strenghtened his chances to be Cleveland's starter Sunday at Pittsburgh.
The Cleveland Browns have placed linebacker James-Michael Johnson and defensive back T.J. Ward on injured reserve with knee injuries.||||||| Both Johnson, a rookie, and Ward were starters for a defense that allows 22.1 points per game. Ward had 68 tackles and one interception.
Ward has appealed a $25,000 fine for a helmet-to-helmet hit on Sunday at Dallas, and said the NFL's rules on vicious hits need to be changed.||||||| Ward received a letter from the league on Wednesday informing him of the penalty for hitting Cowboys wide receiver Kevin Ogletree. Ward said replays conclusively show he did not touch any part of Ogletree's head. Ward said Ogletree was falling as he delivered his hit, which made it appear worse than it was. It's the second time Ward has been fined for a blow to the head.
The Browns have placed safety T.J. Ward on injured reserve with a sprained right foot.||||||| Ward started eight games before getting hurt on Nov. 6 against Houston. The team had been hopeful he would be able to return, but Ward's foot never got well enough for him to be activated. The hard-hitting Ward, a second-round draft picks last season, made 38 tackles and forced one fumble. Browns coach Pat Shurmur was pleased with Ward's development and said he "was playing at a high level" prior to his injury. Shurmur said Ward will not need surgery "at this point."
Ward is not practicing again and will likely miss Sunday's game against St. Louis.||||||| Ward sustained an unspecified foot injury last week in Houston and was placed in a cast. He has not been seen at the team's training facility all week. Usama Young will likely fill in for Ward. Young was practicing with the first-team defense on Friday after sitting out the past two days with a hip injury.
Ward's right foot remains immobilized inside a cast, leaving Cleveland's secondary with a very noticeable limp.||||||| Ward missed his second day of practice Thursday with the injury he sustained last week in Houston, and coach Pat Shurmur said there's a "very good chance" the hard-hitting safety will not play Sunday against the St. Louis Rams. "I don't want to rule him out yet," Shurmur said.

Heather Canyon opened today for the first time this young 2010-2011 season! It is one of the earliest openings of the legendary Canyon ever. The lower Canyon was opened from the Twilight gate down.. With the Civil War game going on, crowds were light when Ski Patrol dropped the gates just after 1pm. Only 25 or so lucky skiers and riders were waiting at the Twilight gate, and they scored fresh powder tracks the whole way down. The Heather chairlift operated today and is on the schedule for the next several days before the next storm system arrives, as conditions in the Canyon allow. Cold temperatures this week kept the snow from the last storm light and fluffy in the Canyon, and continued cold temperatures the next three days should keep the snow light and carveable. Ski Patrol continues to work on the upper Canyon. If Mother Nature works with them, we may see more terrain open soon, with more early-season black diamond powder turns! On your way back to the lift, stay to the skier's left of the waterfall rope lines to exit the Canyon. Watch for the bamboo poles marking the snow bridges. Be safe and have fun. Pictures and video are coming!
Happy riders on the Heather Chairlift first day that the Canyon opened!
Has the idea ever come across where the chair is only used on a must need basis? What constitutes 'must need' would be up to those in charge of course. Hopefully it would keep Heather a little fresher for those that didn't mind the runout and walk/skate back to HRM.Meadows: A novel idea worth hearing back from others. Should we run the Heather lift, or keep it fresh for those that want to use the run out?
I'd vote for stopping the chairs and using the run out, but there are plenty of other areas that are already "reserved" for the run out. They get chewed up quick enough.Here's another thought, why not have gated access to Heather requiring beacon/probe/shovel/partner? Just like Superbowl? I don't know how popular this will be with the masses, but you could test it out for a season or two on the top gates. Only allow access from the A-Zone down through Twilight gates with avy gear. Let everybody without avy gear in from the Pluto gate on down.It would certainly help make the canyon safer, it should slow down the stampede on a powder day and save a couple lines past 10am, and it might even add to the mystique of the canyon that everybody seems so anxious to be a part of.
Hmmm, on one hand I like reducing competition for fresh tracks in the Canyon. On the other, the run out can be a workout. I both board and ski. The run out on skis is no problem, but is a step below torture to boarders. I know it would weed out a couple of my friends, but I would put up with it.It would raise a second question in my mind - can you decommission the Heather lift and create another lift somewhere else on the mountain...Meadows: Regarding the question, that would involve a revision to our master plan along with the appropriate NEPA processes. There wouldn't be a good reason to decommission the chair, even if it weren't regularly scheduled (such as the service we still receive from the Blue chair as a back up to Mt. Hood Express or to use on high capacity days).
I think Private Reserve really serves the purpose you mentioned Ben...fresh tracks and nice long, flat, scenic cruise and hike back to the lift. Maybe you should considered taking up cross country skiing?Thanks for staying true to the 'you gotta earn the turn' motto and for looking out for my freshee Ben. Hey Meadows, how about a tow rope from where you hit the HRM lot running back to the lift?Meadows: If all Heather traffic had to use the run out, an uplift for the HRM hike would be closely looked at.
I vote for avi gear on upper gates!! And a rope tow from the back of HRM lot!! Those two things would make vast improvements to the Heather experience. Please dont mess with my Heather lift though.... I love it!!
There are a few really terrible ideas floating around on here! To Meadows: the heather chair is great, please don't stop running a lift so that laps will take 3-4 times as long and a couple more people will be able to score some fesh lines. And regarding the idea of requiring avy gear to enter heather anywhere above twilight is absurd. The point would obviously be traffic-control, as opposed to safety. I for one, especially hate having my access limited "in the name of safety", when safety is not the issue. Patrol uses a howitzer to try to keep things as safe as possible. I question just how many superbowl hikers actually get out thier probe and shovel and dig a test pit. By suggesting that meadows require heather canyon riders to have avy gear, you are really just suggesting that everyone go buy another $400 pass (beacon,probe, shovel, pack). I personally don't have a problem with the way that meadows handles operation of heather canyon. I applaud them for an early opening this year. If you are having a hard time finding fresh tracks in heather, you should do what I do: go often, go early, and when all else fails: go ride star... Sharing is caring, even when the snow is deep and the tracks are fresh. There is plenty of snow to go around :)
I have ventured into the Private Reserve multiple times. It is unique compared to Heather (cliffs, etc) but doesn't have the sustained pitch. The Private Reserve doesn't have the acreage of spacious bowls as far as I know; haven't explored it all yet.Wouldn't it be nice to hit an open bowl off S.S. ridge without scouting out where it has been tracked the most and least?
I was one of those lucky 25 yesterday. It was epic to say the least. But I suppose you can judge for yourself with my video of the first run of the 2010/11 season as one of those lucky 25 riders...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJXjvpRQAiE&hd=1As far as the chair, leave it just like it is. Not using it means that those who are more able to endure a runout have preference. (this puts skiers at a premium). Are we trying to be Alta? Or Deer Valley? Maybe we'd be placing a premium on the people in best shape? What's next, should we put a Heather canyon surcharge on our lift passes so only people that can "afford" to pay extra for it get the privilege? Then we're placing a premium on the more affluent. There's a zillion ways of "limiting" access to Heather, but I think we just let it be.
Seriously? For years the talk was how to get Heather open sooner so people can enjoy it, now I am hearing ideas of how to restrict it use more. Come on people. Take a deep breath and think about what you are suggesting. Closing Heather Chair isn't going to result in a better overall experience on the mounain. All you're going to do is increase the time to get to the bottem by "skiing on a road", increase the lift lines at HRM and the amount of time you are standing in these (I'm sure the regular users of this lift will be really happy to get all the flow from the canyon), and cut back on the amount of runs you can get in during your day. I don't pay money to spend more time standing in lines and riding lifts so I "might" get another powder run. On powder days, there are ways to get untracked runs well into the afternoon, just learn how to find them. Also, I doubt there would be a huge number of people skipping Heather just because the chair isn't running. Maybe some boarders who would have a harder time with the runout, but they shouldn't be hurt by a change like this (and this comes from a skier) I don't think management would ever be able to "sell the masses" that closing a perfectly good lift is in the best interest of the people who come there. "Hey Joe Public...next year, we are going to improve your experience at the mountain by closing a lift!" I don't think that will help increase the number of people purchasing lift tickets/season passes. Also, forget the idea of requiring a probe, beacon, shovel, partner for upper Heather. There is probably just as much chance of setting something off in the Private Reserves as the upper canyon, so why make a change. People need to realize we all take a risk when skiing, so stop with the over protection. Besides, if you're going to get the chop in the canyon, it's going to come from a slide starting from the way up the mountain, and I doubt the probe and shovel you are carrying will do you much good if you are caught it that. Just check out the pictures from last year.So, I say to management, you are doing as good as job with Heather Canyon as you can. It is a challenging area to open, and we all get that. Is it frustrating somedays when it seems to be taking too long to open, yes, but it is what it is. Do I think you would be making a huge mistake by closing the Heather Chair so people can try to get more powder runs? Absolutely.BTW, if you go with this idea, can I suggest closing Mt Hood Express every other hour? I would like to try and get more powder runs on two bowl and I think this may help. Cheers!
Completely agree with everything Prophet just wrote. Why on earth would you consider voluntarily closing one of the most popular chairs on the mountain? Getting runs in Heather already requires two or three chairlift rides for a single shot. Adding in a long runout and hike will not in any way improve the skier/boarder experience. We get it that Heather is hard to open because of avy danger. Don't make it more frustrating than it already can be!Which brings up the idea of the rope tow from the runout back to HRM. Even with Heather running, there's a need for it. For some folks, it would be an alternative if the Heather line is backed up. And just look at everyone hiking back from Private Reserve. Plus on busy days when the HRM lot fills, it would help reduce those stinky buses hauling people around.
If you do decided to do something like close the Heather chair, please let me know prior to the season you do so I can buy a Fusion pass instead. Thanks.Meadows: This is a great discussion to get and share ideas for future coniseration. Our plans for Heather this season are consistent with previous years and the expectations of our guests.
I think we should all have to carry avi gear but instead of a regular probe we should have to bring one of those anal probes. You know, like the aliens use. That way only people that have been abducted by space aliens could ride Heather.Meadows should also close all the lifts. Force people to earn their turns, feel the burns and piss in the ferns. Hike the whole freaking mountain like a real man (or women)! And make them do it naked. Well, maybe not naked, I guess a **** sack would be ok.
For those complaining about a lack of fresh tracks and wanting to earn their turns: it's called the Palmer Glacier. It even has a climber's route. I think that complaining about having to scout for fresh tracks just means you're getting there too late. We all pay the same amount to ride the same places, so to suggest some type of filter to discourage certain riders outside of a legitimate safety concern isn't just a little elitist, it would hurt the resort financially by alienating a sizable portion of their patrons. I've summited Mount Hood several times and know the feeling of satisfaction that earning fresh tracks provides, but also know the value that a $74 lift ticket provides, and limiting the areas you can already freely access with it is a BAD idea.
I think a good trend is to keep opening more runs like Private Reserve and Fright Woods. Marking them as expert and letting folks head into the steep, treed, and more stable snow. These runs keep deep untracked powder later into the day. Here's an idea- How about opening lower lower heather with no lift service on days that it all would be normally closed. Folks could use the run out to HRM. You could access by hiking from the bottom of Star. There's alot of terrain in there that could be ridden more often with less prep for the patrol / lift staff.I think meadows has done a great job with yearly improvements in the 9 years that I have had a pass. Keep it up!
Dear folks, remember Heather before the Heather chair? For whatever reasons, significant numbers of boarders and skiiers would enter at A zone and then cut across upper Heather to get back to lift served terrain without doing the HRM run out. Opening Heather without running the Heather chair would return us to this scenario, ruining acres of good pow. For this reason opening Heather without running the Heather chair would be a travesty and counter productive for fresh tracks.Also, I don't have a favorable view of restricting upper Heather to the beacon/probe/buddy crowd. The whole point of lift service is to open terrain and I don't want to be denied terrain I've previously enjoyed because I'm not carrying a transceiver, probe, and shovel.Opening Super Bowl more frequently would give the 'Earn-your-turn' crowd a place to expend their excess energy. When avy conditions do not permit access to Super Bowl proper, the slope above Cascade express's top terminal could still be opened. This terrain has to be controlled to open Cascade Express, so no additional control work would be required, and the 700' vertical to get to the top will abundantly remind us all that lifts are, indeed, a good thing, and are exactly why we come to Meadows.Meadows: To all who contributed to this blog - thank you. The discussion is appreciated and it's great to take a reading on where people are and what they think. It also demonstrates the passion we all have for Heather Canyon and how important an asset it is to Mt. Hood Meadows. Thanks for contributing, long live Heather!

Voters will get to cast their vote Tuesday on various referendum questions.
In McHenry County, a referendum asking whether voters would like to adopt a county executive form of government will be on the ballot.
Currently, the county board is responsible for hiring a county administrator that oversees the day-to-day operations within the county government, according to the Northwest Herald.
If the county voted in favor of a county executive form of government, voters would elect a county executive, according to the Daily Herald. Those changes could take effect in the 2014 election.
The referendum question reads: Shall the county of McHenry adopt the county executive form of government and elect not to become a home rule unit?
Will County is the only county in Illinois that has a county executive form of government without a home rule unit, according to the Illinois Association of County Board Members and Commissioners.
Cook County is the only county in the state that has a home rule unit, with a chief executive officer overseeing operations.
"The advantage of this designation is that, except as limited by state law, home rule counties may exercise any power and perform any function relating to its government and affairs, including the power to regulate for the protection of the public health, safety, morals and welfare; to license; and to borrow money and levy taxes," according to the IACBMC website.

McHenry County voters will also get to vote "yes" or "no" on whether they think an individual should able to hold two more elected offices at the same time.
The question is advisory and "not legally binding," according to the NW Herald.
Pension Benefits
A lengthy question asking voters if they would like to amend the state consitution to make it more difficult for increases in pension benefits for government employees will be on the ballot, according to the Northwest Herald.
"The new section would require a three-fifths majority vote of each chamber of the General Assembly, or the governing body of a unit of local government, school district, or pension or retirement system, in order to increase a benefit under any public pension or retirement system," according to the constitutional amendment proposal ballot question.
Those who believe a three-fifths majority vote should be enacted to increase benefits should vote "yes," according to a sample ballot.
Kane County Referendum
An advisory question on the ballot will read: "Should the United States Constitution be amended to limit the use of corporate, special interest, and private money in any political activity, including influencing the election of any candidate for public office?"
Since it is an advisory question, it does not mean anything will change immediately.

Miami Springs has uploaded a webcast of a June 24 city council meeting just one day after a Miami Herald story raised questions about the city's failed efforts to broadcast the meeting, which dealt with the budget, a pending lawsuit and other matters.
"It's finally up on the website," City Manager Ron Gorland wrote in an email on July 10. He noted that there had been some "technical glitches."
The city also posted a special link to the webcast along with this statement: "Our apologies for the delay on publishing the June 24th meeting. Technical difficulties required reloading the complete video file into our Livestream system from DVD."
However, the city made no mention that other webcasts since June 24 had been uploaded — including a July 8 city council meeting — without incident.
The city has a public-access franchising agreement with Comcast to video-record council meetings, Gorland said on July 2. He said that the city is then responsible for uploading the content.
Some of the June 24 meeting's agenda items included:
• a recently filed lawsuit that could halt the city's plans to annex land and increase taxes;
• a report showing a projected budget deficit of nearly $600,000;
• spending $250,000 for new luxury golf carts.
"There's nothing in the Sunshine Law that requires meetings to be recorded," said Barbara Petersen, president of the Florida First Amendment Foundation and an expert on public-records laws. "The law simply says that minutes must be taken."
Petersen said that the city could create an ordinance that addresses the webcasting of city meetings. A review of the city's ordinances does not list any local laws pertaining to videotaping or webcasting except for those passed last year dealing with videos at adult bookstores.
Many of the town's 14,000 residents do not subscribe to Comcast and rely on the city to upload council-meeting videos to its website for viewing. The city has claimed that upload-related issues were beyond the city's control.
"It appears it may be a technical issue with the provider LiveStream," Gorland wrote in an email to the Miami Herald on July 2.
Livestream is a popular software program used to broadcast live and pre-recorded events.
"It usually has to do with bandwidth," said Christina DiRusso, a spokesperson for Livestream, who pointed out that the city was using an older version of the software.
DiRusso went a step further and had the company's chief technology advisor dig a bit deeper.
"Our team looked at their video library, and they appear to have about a dozen clips from June 24 that are all very, very short," DiRusso wrote in a follow-up email to the Herald on July 9.
This kind of "behavior," she added, occurs with "network connection issues on-site." Even after multiple tries, the city could not upload the video.
Residents can view the June 24 council meeting and city statement at www.miamisprings-fl.gov/webcast.
To avoid potential problems in the future, Livestream offered a possible solution.
"The city should look into upgrading to a newer software version," DiRusso said.

I'd like to pitch a question. From the perspective of someone who was in on the ground floor WAY back in the day (CSS wasn't even a thing yet) and wanting to get back in to it. I've since dabbled with style sheets at a very simple level and snippits of Java Script. When I last did some 'design' it was in Photoshop or Fireworks and you would slice it up and just serve it out in tables. All that has changed from what I've seen. So my question is, are their any resources (books or web) that will teach me the new techniques from getting my design from Photoshop or Fireworks to the new standards? I did some quick googling but it just came up with services to do the conversion to HTML/CSS for me. I want to learn how to do it myself.
Any advice or leads would be fantastic.

Technology can be great when you're looking for a date. Millions use online dating in hopes of finding a mate. But it can also hurt your love life.
Once you do start to date, you might want to put social media, Google, and even your cellphone away.
A new study published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships found that when people were asked to discuss something meaningful, they reported less trust, empathy and lower relationship quality when a cell phone was in the room.
Michelle Frankel of NYCity Matchmaking said a common post-date complaint among her clients was about the use, or even mere presence, of a cell phone.

Rumor has it Roach may be losing yet another fighter in Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. after a bad 2012 that seen all of his top fighters take L's on their record. It's being said that either Nacho Beristain or Robert Garcia are in the top running to replace Roach. If Rumor holds true, I think it be a good Match for either trainer to take over. I'd leen more toward seeing Nacho Train him because I feel it being a no nonsense better mesh between Legendary Trainer teaching Son Of A Legend on the come up.

Tho I think roach is overrated i don't think the trainer was the problem in this tandem. Nacho probably wouldn't have the patience at this age with julio. Garcia might, he already deals rios shit so I'm guessing he would be the better fit for him style wise too.

Feelin' the love?
We still need more help compiling the list of 603 Reasons why New Hampshire is such a special place.
Think history, politics, famous sons and daughters, natural beauty, financial benefits and more.
When we have the list complete, we'll publish it and report on it for the next year.
Send your reasons to firstname.lastname@example.com, tweet them to @ETNHEditor, mail them to 46 W. Broadway, Derry, 03038, or post them on facebook.com/DerryNewsNH.
Slip, slidin' Slurpee
The 7-Eleven store on Nashua Road in Londonderry got into a sticky situation on Aug. 6.
Londonderry police reported a customer became angry inside the store and tossed his newly purchased Slurpee onto the floor to show his disgust with a store worker.
Fan fever
New Hampshire drivers like to wear their hearts on their license plates.
Some use their plates to show their team support.
A red Jeep seen on Interstate 93 carried this tag: "GRONK83." They must be miserable these days.
New England Patriots' tight-end Rob Gronkowski is still recovering from surgery. And Wes Welker, who used to wear Patriots' Number 83, is playing for the Broncos.
Parental controls
When fire officials came before Derry town councilors to talk emergency training classes, one councilor needed a bit more information.
"Who's teaching the classes?" Town Councilor Phyllis Katsakiores asked fire Chief George Klauber.
"You might know him ...Chuck Hemeon," Klauber responded.
Katsakiores is Hemeon's mother.
Hair today ...
A sign at Water's Edge salon in Derry noted a need for some facial remarks lately.
"I mustache you a question, but I'll shave it 4 later," the sign read.

Good day. I finally went down to look at this LoBoy that I have a chance to buy. It looks pretty good, runs well, has the three point hitch and comes with the tiller in the pictures. It cuts well but the mower deck is probably going to need a little work. It has been kinda beat up.
The price I was given was $2K. Seem like a decent price for what it is to me. Any opinions?

McDonald Family Wobbles But We Don't Fall Down by McDonald Descendants Reunion Photo - about 2 years ago
"This past weekend, we held our first McDonald Mega Family Reunion event in Fayetteville, NC. We had over 360 paid attendees and submitted an order to Customink for 243 shirts. In this photograph, the McDonald family is doing a popular line-dance called, The Wobble. It's my favorite photograph of all our reunion pictures because it looks like a sea of aquamarine blue (e.g., the color of the shirts). This was our second experience using Customink and the service was second to none once again. Thank you, Customink. "

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Combining trends doesn't always work (see: jeggings), but sometimes the elements come together in perfect harmony. Richard Nicoll's structured minidress gives you two Spring trends for the price of one. The boned and molded bodice is in line with the exposed lingerie look, while the ribbon sash suggests military without being obvious. We recommend pairing it with upswept hair and minimal jewelry for a refined cocktail look. Click the image to shop.

Wisconsin may not have a ton more than pride to play for on Saturday, but don't expect them to lay down for Penn State on Senior Day either. This is a game that matters for the Badgers in many ways – both on and off the field. Heck, there's even been open talk of making this a trophy game.
Penn State may not be able to make a bowl game appearance, but a chance to send the Senior class, that all stuck around, out as winners in their final home game is going to be paramount. Expect the Nittany Lions to have a lot on the line.
Having said all of that, what are we going to be watching for this Saturday?
1) Ball's Record: Penn State has been pretty decent against the run, giving up just the 5th most yards a game, but for Ball it's all about the win and the all-time TD record as well. He could look to take this team on his back like he did in the 2nd half against the Buckeyes. Expect him to break this record early on in this game – I'm thinking 1st quarter.
2) Phillips' Improvement: Last weekend we saw Curt Phillips come up clutch against the Buckeyes and it was just another showing of how much he's becoming comfortable in the starting role at QB. However, he got off to just a 4-11 start. This week another sign of improvement would be being more accurate in the passing game early on. If he can build off of the late performance last week then there should be no worries about him at QB moving forward.
3) Stopping PSU's rushing attack: This may sound a bit crazy to put as a thing to watch, but Penn State has really found something in the backfield during the Big Ten season. They are averaging 152.6 yards a game in Big Ten play alone and while the Badgers are the 3rd ranked defense against the rush in Big Ten games it's still something to watch for, especially if Chris Borland is a no go again this week. PSU running back Zach Zwinak averages over 100 yards rushing in Big Ten play and he presents a different style of running than the Badgers have seen all season.
4) The Abbrederis Effect: Wisconsin's offense has seen less and less of the deep ball connections over the course of the Big Ten season and while some of that has to do with the fact that Stave is no longer behind center it also has to do with the fact that no other deep threat outside of Abbrederis has emerged. Wisconsin needs to find ways to get him more involved in offense and it may well be finding ways to use him on flanker screens and even more play-action passes to find him open. If Abbrederis is a factor on Saturday that bodes well for Wisconsin's chances of winnings.
5) Devin Smith & Co.: Penn State features the league's best passing QB in Matt McGloin and the best wide receiver in the conference in Allen Robinson. That means a lot of pressure will be on cornerback Devin Smith against Robinson, but it also means the rest of the backfield needs to step up as well. Wisconsin proved that it can do that last week by limiting a very potent Ohio State attack, but can they keep it up for a 2nd straight week? They'll need to find a way to keep Robinson as well as the tight ends in check or it'll be a long Saturday afternoon in Happy Valley for Bucky.

HEERENVEEN, Netherlands (AP) -- Former Dutch star Marco van Basten has signed a two-year contract to coach Heerenveen starting next season.
The 47-year-old scored a tournament-high five goals to help the Dutch win the 1988 European Championship and starred for Ajax and AC Milan in a career cut short by ankle injuries. He coached the Netherlands from 2004-08 and Ajax from 2008 until he quit in 2009.
Van Basten will replace Ron Jans, whose contract will not be extended at the end of his second season. Heerenveen is third in the Dutch league.


text: If we take a critical look at our team, these days you will see that in Sir Alex's effort to keep all players happy, fresh and put some youngsters through to the big stage, the club suffers by missing out on very important competitions and trophies. My candid opinion is that the gaffer should reconsider the idea of having a regular starting eleven. Then, from the lot you have super subs like Chicarito and other squad players who can fill in for any of the first eleven who sustains injury or is indisposed for one reason or the other. For me, too many times this season our team just looks too ordinary for a MANCHESTER UNITED team. For instance, the issue of the forwards is settled, ROONEY and WELBECK will do the job. Hernandez, Berbatov and Owen should be the subs. On the flanks, VALENCIA and NANI should do the job. Giggs (for age reasons,else I would prefer him to NANI) Park and Young should be subs. The midfield should be ANDERSON and CARRICK. Fletcher, Scholes( for age reasons) and Cleverley should be subs. Ther back four should be RAFAEL, RIO, VIDIC and EVRA while the likes of Smalling for RAFAEL, Jones for RIO, Evans for VIDIC and Fabio for EVRA should know their sub status. Things could change when there is an emergency. I disapprove of shuffling things when you think somebody should get a rest. Seeing Young make a mess of the wing against Ajax was not delightful when we had Giggs on the bench ready to go, moreso, at Old Trafford where he could have had a glorious 900th appearance. Then bringing on Scholes later shouldn't have been, Park had no business in that midfield. He just can't handle it. He doesn't he even cut a player who knows what to do and falls too easily for a midfielder(The playmaker). I can go on and on. Thank God the gaffer came out to accept his fault in the whole saga. I am one of those people who believe that a well set out United team can and will defeat the 'almighty' Barcelona team. SAF should also try to keep a player's momentum, when a player is in form give him enough game time unless he is injured or can no longer give a good performance, I think this is why they are paid those huge wages.

Friends of the High Line is pleased to announce that Cecilia Alemani will be appointed the Donald R. Mullen, Jr. Curator and Director of High Line Art Program. A distinguished independent curator and writer, Cecilia is currently a guest curator for the upcoming Performa 11, and a collaborator on the Frame section at the Frieze Art Fair in London and Frieze Talks series in New York. Cecilia succeeds Lauren Ross, who left the position in June and is now the Nancy E. Meinig Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
In this position, Cecilia will lead High Line Art [2], a program presented by Friends of the High Line that introduces site-specific, temporary public art commissions, collaborations, and events in and around the High Line to the more than two million people who visit the park each year. Cecilia will bring to High Line Art international experience as an independent curator and writer, and a history of curatorial collaborations with museums, foundations, non-profit art organizations, and cultural institutions, including MoMA/PS1, New York; X Initiative, New York; Artists Space, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; Tate Modern, London; Palazzo Grassi, Venice, Italy; and Venice International Film Festival, Venice, Italy.
"After an extensive search, it is clear that Cecilia is the best candidate to lead High Line Art. Cecilia is a thoughtful, forward-thinking curator who will bring an innovative approach to structuring the public art program on the High Line," said Donald R. Mullen, Jr., the founding supporter of High Line Art and Board member of Friends of the High Line. "I have often said that the High Line is the new museum mile. High Line Art celebrates the park's role in connecting two neighborhoods that make up the cultural hub of New York City, with the more than 400 galleries and cultural organizations that populate the streets below the park. Cecilia's curatorial leadership will elevate High Line Art to new level in New York City and the international art world."
"We are pleased to welcome Cecilia to Friends of the High Line. The rotating series of public art on the High Line is one of the ways we encourage the public to come back to the park again and again. With Cecilia's vision and experience, High Line Art will expand the opportunities for the public to discover art and performance in ways that are accessible, engaging, and complementary of the High Line itself," said Robert Hammond, Co-Founder, Friends of the High Line. "Since Joshua David and I founded Friends of the High Line in 1999, we have worked with the art community in the Meatpacking District and West Chelsea to celebrate the High Line. High Line Art builds upon this history now that the park is open."

Today is the first installment of a new feature I like to call "Arguments I Hate". The premise is simple. I will present something that a lot of people say or believe is true, and tell you why it's nonsense. Today we'll look at the assertion that Vancouver is a 'goalie graveyard'.

Rated 5 out of 5�by Ade New golf bag My grandson was totally pleased with the golf bag. He is 15 years old. June 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by BadBen Excellant light bag The bag is very light and accommodates the clubs well with spacious openings. The pockets are ample but could be positioned more optimally. June 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Coach309 Good Value Bag I'm glad I got this on sale. I've had a chance to play a few rounds with it now. The info says that there are "full length dividers". The problem is that the spaces are for multiple clubs. I was under the impression that the dividers were for each club or for only two clubs. Each space is designed to hold three to four clubs if you fill your bag to regulation. If you carry more than regulation expect your clubs to get tangled and for your grips to fight you each time you remove your club. Great pockets and the drink pocket is perfe4ctly located when carrying the bag. Not a $130.00 bag though. May 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Mark Nice bag. Nicely made and light. Would be nice if it came with a diagram suggesting what stuff should go in which pocket. April 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by TBear Nice Bag for the Price Purchased for my son. Similar to my carry bag that was more pricey. April 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Dbloss06 Love taylormade Awesome bag just wish I didn't have to buy more inserts to separate the clubs April 4, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Willie So far it has been excellent I have only had this bag for a couple of weeks, but I am well pleased with it's lightweight, and ease of carrying. The proof of it's toughness will come in time but so far I am very satisfied. June 22, 2013

Understanding the People Who Bought Our Political Process
by Texas Nate, Tue Sep 14, 2010 at 03:53:02 PM EDT
I've been having a bit of a year in the wilderness. After almost 15 years in the political arena, I stopped doing partisan political work this year. No more for me.
Simply put, I've come to believe the game is rigged and there is nothing I can do as an operative inside the system to improve things.
This post by Ian Welsh about the possibility of Social Security "reform" in the face of huge public opposition set me off this morning:
Public opinion is not relevant to the overall direction of what Village elites do. It DOES NOT MATTER. Calls about the bailout ran 100:1 to 1200:1 against, they passed it anyway. Village elites are generally unified in their preferences for policy, and when they are, all you're arguing is fairly trivial details, not the essence of the policy. The question about SS in the Villagers minds is not whether it should be cut, but how.
But when I was discussion Welsh's piece with a former colleague this morning, I realized that things that seem obvious if you paid close attention to the financial collapse of 2008 and its aftermath you may still be clinging to some misguided beliefs about the nature of our current polity.
With that in mind I wanted to strongly recommend two books that did a great deal to wake me up to our current reality. First, Confidence Game: How a Hedge Fund Manager Called Wall Street's Bluff by Christine S. Richard.
Confidence Game is one of those real-life nightmare books you just can't put down. It tells the story of hedge-fund manager Bill Ackman's six year battle to warn everyone that the financial boom of the George Bush era was a house of cards.
From the press release for the book:
In 2002, the hedge fund manager issued a critical research report on MBIA Inc., the owner of a triple-A-rated bond insurer that played a central role in the financial alchemy on Wall Street. "This company will spiral downward," Ackman warned, and he placed a bet against MBIA that would earn his investors billions of dollars if it did.
The backlash was swift. Ackman was branded a fraud in the press and investigated by Eliot Spitzer and the SEC. Despite the scrutiny, he spent years telling anyone who would listen why MBIA was a catastrophe waiting to happen. With the onset of the credit crisis, the problems exposed turned out to be bigger than MBIA. An unquestioning acceptance of credit ratings, a blind eye to leverage, a dangerous reliance on financial models, and the abandonment of common sense had become part of a deeply flawed financial system. The collapse humbled nearly every large financial institution and plunged the country into recession.
And if you wonder why no one has been held accountable for the sea of fraud that nearly drowned us all, Robert Scheer's The Great American Stickup: How Reagan Republicans and Clinton Democrats Enriched Wall Street While Mugging Main Street explains the bi-partisan nature of the big screw job.
Here's Scheer:
If we accept a broad dispersal of blame or a sense of inevitability -- or simply ignore the details, since they can be so confusing -- we lose the opportunity to rearrange our institutions to prevent such disasters from happening again.
That this is true has only been reinforced by the tentative response of the Obama administration in its first year. Even after a crash that economists agree is the biggest since the granddaddy of 1929, the president's proposed reform legislation stops far short of reintroducing the kind of regulation of the markets that prevented such disasters in the intervening eighty years. We still see a persistent fear, stoked by the same folks that led us into this abyss, that regulation and scrutiny will kill the golden goose of Wall Street profits and, by extension, U.S. prosperity.
If we as a people learn anything from this crash, however, it should be that there are no adults watching the store, only a tiny elite of self-interested multimillionaires and billionaires making decisions for the rest of us. As long as we cede that power to them, we can expect to continue getting bilked.
The great financial collapse wasn't something that "just happened" it was something that was done to us by a handful of bad actors at the tops of our business establishment and both political parties.
We need to understand this because they're coming for our Social Security next.
