Lovely shoe
"I love this pair of shoes. They have a bit of padding on the sole of the shoe making them feely very comfy. The shoe is leather so it will strength a bit. I found them to run a bit long and a bit wide. I usually wear a size 7 but had to exchange them for a 6.5"

"The Crown Vintage Firenze Flat is a winner. This sandal is a great neutral gold that can be paired with anything to jazz up an outfit. I am sure these will be a go-to for me this summer season. How do I know that? I am so in love with them that I went back for a second pair in black. Beyond looking awesome, they fit well too. True to size - I usually wear 8.5 or 9 and the 8.5 fit well and are superbly comfortable."

"I love these shoes but have only been able to wear them once as they have given my blisters on the back. I like them a lot but just keep in mind they will need breaking in!"

"These sandals are a good quality and very comfy.The only issue I found is that the 'platinum' color, advertised is more of a champagne/gold shade and so that was a little disappointing.I do plan to order another pair in black, however and I would definitely recommend them to a friend."

Singing, Speaking Voice
In 1998, upon college graduation, I began teaching private vocal lessons. I have taught for two schools of music, First United Methodist Music School in Texarkana, Arkansas and Burbank Music Academy in Burbank, California. In 2007, I began offering vocal lessons online through Skype. My current home studio is located in Manhattan.

I am dedicated to helping people explore their vocal talents and skills in the entertainment field. My focus centers on treating your entire body - not only your voice - as a tool for performance. This not only includes lessons for voice (speaking & singing) but career and life coaching.In performance often your body will want to work against itself. Your body become tense, you over think, and worry. My motivation is to help you move to a place where you can over come your insecurities and fears by giving you an understanding of vocal production and its connection to your body and mind. My desire is to lead you to being your best.
Here are some examples of how I can help: increasing vocal range, eliminating "breaks" in your range, supported sound, natural breathing techniques, body alignment, conquering performance anxiety, stage presence, song interpretation, college preparation, smart goal setting, increased creativity, and positive internal reprogramming.
I've been a member of the National Association of Teacher's of singing for 6 years and am also a member of Actors Equity, SAG-AFTRA, NARAS (the Grammy's) and a lifetime member for the music fraternity Sigma Alpha Iota. I hold 2 Fine Arts degrees in Music and Drama as well as a Bachelor of Applied Arts; Sciences in Administrative Leadership with an emphasis in Psychology.
*** Lesson Details ***
In your lesson, I start where you're at. I identify immediate problems and then put you on a regimen to move you toward your vocal best. I am a stern but encouraging teacher. I expect a vocalist to practice.
Whether a beginner or seasoned performer. My goal is to get your voice to a place of ease in production and to articulate your performance in a way to connect with your audience.
Each lesson is recorded and emailed so you can listen and practice. Practicing is imperative to building your vocal muscles and performance skills.
Here is a list of other benefits that I provide: ear training, finding your true voice - not just an imitation of your favorite vocalist, smart career goal setting, overcoming stage fright, audition/interview techniques, positive self-programming, finding your acting "type"career marketing strategies, how to work "where you're at", scene study, monologue preparation, and a building basic musical theatre audition book.

Gabriel W. ("Musiciano") is a fiery and passionate vocal instructor proficient in the fields of acting, singing and vocal development. A professional singer, actor and teacher with a BFA in Theater Arts. Gabriel doesn't just possess a formal college education, but more importantly an "informal" education based on his experiences on the stage and in the studio in the real world. Gabriel's approach is direct, simple and to the core getting straight to the heart of the matter: developing the voice from the inside out by breaking things down to the essentials.
An expert at creating vocal warm-ups, vocal exercises, and vocal cool-downs to keep the voice in the best shape possible. With a passion for psychology, this is your guy for great insights and advice on how to cultivate a positive attitude and create and survive a career in the world of the performing arts. With a kind and compassionate yet stern and strong tone, Gabriel will work with you to develop the focus and dedication necessary to get your voice beyond what you even knew was possible. Gabriel is available to teach Monday through Saturday.
*** Lesson Details ***
Regardless of the genre you sing, developing your voice with Gabriel's help will improve your tone, range, power and overall ability. You can expect to become a much better singer without losing any of your personal and unique traits.
The approach isn't a technical or mysterious one, it's all about re-learning the facts about how the voice functions best. You can expect to clear away a lot of confusions regarding how the voice works and to take away the guesswork from the vocal development process. If you want to improve your voice quickly, being guided by someone who understands how it all works and by someone who was where you are today and is now closer to where you want to be in the future is the best idea. Gabriel is that guy!
Gabriel's approach is quite simple yet very effective at developing the entire voice. There are two basic levels that every singer must address. The first one is addressing the condition of the body and voice and the second one is addressing the functioning of the voice and body.
I - Silent Foundation
The silent foundation refers to the condition of your instrument as it is silent. If we are looking at the body as an instrument that sings, we first have to make sure that our instrument is in good condition. How healthy is your instrument? Is it well rested, well hydrated and loose? Or is it tired, dehydrated and tense? As you could guess, the condition of your instrument will have a significant impact on the quality of the sounds you make. So the first thing to be addressed is how your instrument is before it starts making sound.
II - Conditioning of Singing Behaviors
This is when we get busy. Once we have a well rested, healthy, hydrated and relaxed instrument we can start working it out. The goal is to condition our singing behaviors to be reflexive, reliable and strong. The way to do this is through a series of vocal exercises that will condition your voice to respond to the desires of your heart. Whatever it is that you want to express will be possible once your instrument is conditioned to the point where there is no gap between what you want to express and your ability to do so. Learning to sing is all about learning how to express yourself without barriers. You should be able to develop enough range, power, control and skill so that you can express your heart without feeling like you're incapable of achieving what you pursue. To achieve these abilities training is often necessary.
*** Specialties ***
Confidence Building, Warming-Up, Releasing Tension and Strain, Eliminating Stage Fright, Expanding Range, Improving Tone, Developing Vocal Power and Presence, Eliminating Doubt, Simplifying Singing, Strengthening The Voice, Improving Pitch, Building Stamina, Increasing Creativity, Performance Tips, Artist Development, Acting and Songwriting.
Once we have a good foundation any contemporary genre or style can be improved.

Whether you are seasoned performer or a an absolute beginner I want to help you reach your vocal potential.
I have loved running my own private studio for the past 8 years. Watching my students improve and make strides in their musical careers and reaching their personal goals is so fulfilling. I fell in love with teaching music while a student myself! I am an alumna of the University of Michigan, where I received Masters of Music and a Bachelors of Music degrees with honors. While there, I began my private vocal studio and studied vocal pedagogy. Since graduation, I have maintained a private studio in New York. I love what I do. I find it fulfilling to give my students the tools that they need to succeed and watch them achieve their goals.
I have performed in both the US and internationally on a professional level. As a performer I am comfortable in a range of repertoire: Musical Theater, Jazz, Opera, Pop, Folk and other genres. As a teacher, I find that my own experiences in performing inform and help guide my teaching style. In addition to teaching and performing in Operas, Concerts and Musicals, I perform on behalf of an outreach organization called Concerts Motion, bringing live performances to audiences who are hospitalized, isolated or in need. I also serve as a Cantorial Soloist at Shaaray Tefila of Bedford, New York.
In addition to my more advanced and older students, I have a passion for teaching children. I began working with younger students as an instructor at the Cranbrook Theater School. While there I taught lessons and group workshops on singing, acting and general performance to students ages 5 through high school. Since then I have worked with young students on a regular basis in both private lessons and working with music outreach programs in public schools and youth outreach community programs. In addition to building musical skills, I find that performing and studying music gives children a sense of accomplishment and confidence in their lives.
Teaching Emphasis
*Breath Control
*Wide dynamic and vocal range
*Performance Practices
*Song Selection
*Children's Lessons
*Lessons to Improve Public Speaking and Speech
*Healthy Vocal Technique
My approach to vocal instruction encourages a healthy technique bringing freedom throughout the entire body. I teach a variety of ages and singing levels. I look forward to working with you!
*** Lesson Details ***
The style and pace of my lessons are tailored to each individual student. I bring structure to the lessons, but work at the speed that is comfortable for you. It is my ultimate goal to give you the tools and the confidence to learn and perform music on your own. Most importantly we make the most of our time together for whichever length of lesson you choose.
Each lesson generally starts with a physical and vocal warm up. This is followed by vocal exercises (arpeggios, scales, and various other exercises that will develop flexibility and also breath control in the voice, as well as expanding the vocal range). The last part of the lesson will most often focus on a song or piece of music as we incorporate the technical and artistic elements we have worked on thus far.
Depending on the level of the student we will begin with the basics: pitch matching, simple vocal exercises, and standard songs. After a few months of lessons students should expect to have the skills to move on to more difficult vocalises and advanced songs. All that we do in our lessons will have an emphasis on singing in the most healthy way for your voice.
We will work on intonation, rhythm, style, diction and projection. We will also do audition and performance preparation. I will give the student exercises to take home and work on between lessons.
We will have fun and learn a lot in the comfortable and energetic setting that I create!
*** Studio Equipment ***
Private in-home studio: Separate studio with electric piano, music stand, several chairs, music books, mirrors, speakers and open space for us to work in!
There is a separate living room/waiting room where parents/caretakers are welcomed to wait while their student is in their lesson. Parents/caretakers are also welcomed to sit in on all or part of lesson in the studio.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I will bring music repertoire books that we might be using. I would expect them to have a keyboard or piano.
*** Specialties ***
I am classically trained, but have studied pedagogy pertaining to many different types of singing. I work with many singers of Opera and Musical Theater. I also have a lot of experience working with singers who are in bands and play instruments (guitar, bass, drums, ukulele, keyboards) while they are singing. I find this provides an entirely new set of challenges for the singer and feel that I have found efficient and successful ways of negotiating this. I also teach students of jazz and folk music and work with singer-songwriters on getting the best of themselves on their original pieces.

Here is a simple way to help your fellow man: Sign your organ donor card. There are tens of thousands who are currently waiting on the organ donor list. In the United States alone, there are more than 96,000 people on the organ donor list.Three quarters of those in need of an organ transplant are waiting for a kidney. Sadly, more than half of them die before a matching organ becomes available. You can make a huge difference in these numbers by signing your organ donor card. It's easy. Just sign the allotted line on your driver's license next time you renew it. In the meantime, you can go online and print out a temporary card. Don't get me wrong, I'm not wishing anyone harm. I hope for a long, healthy and happy life for all. But just in case tragedy does strike, how wonderful would it be to give life through death.

On Monday night, the Chicago White Sox released Ozzie Guillen from his 2012 contract to manage the team, with this caveat from their press release:
The White Sox retain rights to compensation should Guillen accept a managerial position with another major league team in 2012.
This morning, via tweet from MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez, we learn what that compensation will be:
A source told MLB.com that the compensation is expected to be infielder Osvaldo Martinez and a Minor Leaguer pitcher for Ozzie Guillen.
Martinez, 23 years old and a native of Puerto Rico, was the Marlins' 11th-round selection in the 2006 draft. Clearly a defensive specialist, he has hit just .269/.331/.352 in 2099 minor league plate appearances, and .258/.300/.348 in 71 major league PA in 2010 and 2011.
Guillen is expected to take bench coach Joey Cora with him to Miami, and the White Sox are expected to replace the rest of the coaching staff, except pitching coach Don Cooper, who still has a contract with the team.

The Indians have signed three new players for their 40-man roster this offseason: David Murphy, David Cooper, and David Adams. You may have noticed they all have something in common. Why is the Tribe so fixated on that name, and does this mean we're going to see Carlos Santana traded to the Rays for a certain former Cy Young-winning southpaw???
If the Indians branched out to other sports, they could bring in probably the most famous European footballer ever (Beckham), one of the best kickers in NFL history (Akers), and two Basketball Hall of Famers, one an NBA MVP with two championship rings (Robinson), the other one of the greatest slam dunkers ever and two-time NCAA Player of the Year (Thompson)
If the Indians are willing to go outside the world of sports, they could bring in a musical icon (Bowie) or two (Lee Roth), one of the great talk-show hosts in television history (Letterman), an actor best known either for driving a talking car or hanging out on the beach with buxom blondes (Hasselhoff).
How about within the world of baseball? Who are the greatest Davids in MLB history?
10) David Robertson (2.76 ERA, 156 ERA+, 9.6 bWAR) - He's been one of the best relievers in baseball over the last five years (with the Yankees) and his 2011 (1.08 ERA in 66.2 innings, with 100 strikeouts) was fantastic.
9) David Bell (1,239 hits, 123 HR, 15.4 bWAR) - Part of one of baseball's best families, he played for 6 teams during a 12-year career. His best season was 2004, when he had an .821 OPS and played strong defense at 3B for the Phillies.
8) David DeJesus (.279/.353/.417, 22.5 bWAR) - The 33-year-old outfielder is currently signed with the Rays, and he's average 43 extra-base hits over the last 8 seasons, spend mostly with the Royals.
7) David Eckstein (1,414 hits, infinite scrappiness, 20.7 bWAR) - The 2006 World Series MVP has become famous as a old school/new school litmus test that it's often overlooked that he really was a very good player during his first couple seasons.
6) David Price (3.19 ERA, 122 ERA+, 18.6 bWAR) - The 3-time All Star and the 2012 AL Cy Young winner is only 28, so he's got time time climb, though I don't see him unseating the top pitcher listed here (who's very underrated).
5) David Justice (305 HR, 129 OPS+, 40.4 bWAR) - 1990 NL Rookie of the Year and a 3-time All Star who finished in the top 5 of MVP voting twice. He played 3.5 seasons with the Indians, including 1997, when he posted a 1.013 OPS.
4) David Ortiz (431 HR, 139 OPS+, 44.0 bWAR) - A 9-time All Star with 6 top ten MVP finishes, he also won the 2013 World Series MVP. One of the five best hitters in baseball over the last decade, and still going strong, so he may eventually become the first David in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
3) David Wells (1.88 BB/9, 2,201 K, 53.5 bWAR) - A 4-time All Star who finished in the 3 in Cy Young voting twice and pitched a perfect game in 1998. His walk rate is bettered by only Greg Maddux among pitchers who threw as many innings as Wells in the last 50 years.
2) David Wright (222 HR, 137 OPS+, 46.7 bWAR) - Already a 7-time All Star and has finished in the top 10 in MVP balloting 4 times. One of baseball ten best players over the last decade and still only 30, he's got a strong chance to overtake the top spot on this list in the next 2 or 3 years.
1) David Cone (3.46 ERA, 2,668 K, 61.8 bWAR) - a 5-time All-Star and the 1994 AL Cy Young winner, his 8.28 strikeouts per 9 innings rank 10th in history (min. 2,000 IP), and during his 12-year peak (1988-1999) only Greg Maddux and Roger Clemens were better. Impressive company, huh? He fell off the Hall of Fame ballot in his first year, which is a shame.

Oftentimes, a great leap of faith can make all the difference when it comes to achieving a dream. The minute that Joy Ike turned in her letter of resignation at her full-time job, her dream became a reality. She was bound and determined to place a stamp on this world as she knew God had called her to do. And so far, there has not been one iota of regret on her behalf. Joy Ike is the real deal: a singer/songwriter with something to say and ample talent to deliver it. A warm and inviting voice wrapped up in strong and generous piano-driven pop/rock arrangements is the general recipe for Ike, who may be the best thing to come out of Western Pennsylvania in a decade or more. Free and open to the public.

Two men remain in the hospital after a shooting outside a bar in Buena Vista Township. Police said the scene was chaotic as at least 100 patrons flooded the parking lot and took cover inside.
Officers from Buena Vista, Bridgeport and the Saginaw County Sheriff responded to multiple shots fired at 12:26 a.m. Sunday morning. The shooting happened outside Better Days Bar, located at 4030 Dixie Hwy.
One 23-year-old man is in critical condition, a 34-year-old man is stable and two women ages 17-year-old and 25-year-old were treated and released.
Police believe a dispute between rival gang members quickly escalated and guns were pulled. Detectives have interviewed several persons caught in the crossfire and throughout the early morning hours and are trying to sort out what caused the conflict.
Detectives have identified persons of interest responsible for the shooting but are not receiving a whole lot of cooperation. Police collected dozens of spent shell casings that were ejected from at least three weapons.
Police are asking anyone with information to contact the Buena Vista Police Department Detective Division at 989-753-7790 or the detective tip-line 989-233-2363.

Huffington Post Video Mocking GOP Women Contains Sexually Explicit Lyrics
There is a fine line between tasteful political comedy and crossing-the-line crudeness, and the Huffington Post's new song "My Girl's A Republican" just leaped over that line. With lyrics such as "Dick Nixon sucking lips" and "she made her oil money last, and now I'm tapping it," even the most liberal among us could agree that the attack on Republican women is downright revolting.
Hailed as an "ode to right-wing ladies," the three and a half minute song and video by Rap duo "It's The Real" (and proudly displayed on the Huffington Post Web site) does nothing but smear conservative women like Christine O'Donnell, Michele Bachmann, and of course, Sarah Palin. The HuffPo write up on the "tribute to conservative women" song claims "it does a pretty solid job of both mocking and admiring right-wing conservatives."
(Video below the fold)
Admiring right-wing conservatives? The one line that could possibly be construed to "admire" a conservative woman is the tasteless description of the pro-life position: "We'll be together forever, no ifs or even maybes. She's anti-abortion, so she'll never dump a baby." The crudeness of the phrase "dumping a baby" is accompanied by three on-screen graphics of trashcans. Hardly praiseworthy.
If that's what the Huffington Post cites as admirable, any positive messages in the song are overshadowed by the pervasive sexually-charged lyrics. "Blonde hair and blue eyes, Dick Nixon sucking lips. Undercover she experiments, bipartisanship."
Other oral-sex references include, "She's my filibuster baby, I fill and bust her mouth. When she's not in bed with lobbyists, or sleeping on the couch."
But the crudeness doesn't end there – the rappers linked a GOP woman being "red" with her menstrual cycle. "She's red, period; such a bloody mess."
Tea-Party favorite Delaware Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell has been a popular liberal media punching bag, so naturally, she's included in the song. In a reference to her "dabbling in witchcraft" comments on Bill Maher years ago, one line in the song states, "She says she's not a witch, but she's got the eye of Newt, playing games with my heart, two lies one truth."
And what would a song about GOP women be without a jab at Sarah Palin and her daughter Bristol? "She's a conservative girl, can't take her home to motha. I call her Bristol Palin cuz we never us a rubba," was another line in the rap song attended by a silhouette of a pregnant woman in front of a church. Sarah was alluded to in the line "So go ahead and bend it over like an earmark, tip drill baby drill," because she made the line "Drill Baby, Drill!" famous in her 2008 Vice Presidential bid.
A cut out of Republican Congresswoman Michele Bachmann with a party hat on, appeared during the line "She's with the party of 'no' but she don't want to stop."
Not only were sexual lyrics pervasive in the three minute song, but combine crude sexual lyrics and domestic abuse and you get this whopper: "I beat her black and blue, but my lady leans red. I want a lady in the street but a freak in the bed."

We have had wonderful experiences in Vallarta. We own four timeshares here and spend a month here every year. This is a tourist town - (almost) everyone speaks English. You can hop on a bus and go from one end of the bus line to the other. No need for anyone to find it difficult to get to one place or another. Many tours are available, from a Jeep tour on the back roads to a walking city tour. Can keep you busy for at least a month.

It was hot summer time. Most men were in only T-shirts and shorts, which were all torn to shreds. Some were completely unclothed. The scene around us was utterly beyond description. It was the most miserable sight we had ever seen.
We had no time to remain shocked, however, knowing that these men would die soon if not treated immediately. We held some in our arms, carried some on our backs, put some on stretchers, shutter boards or the truck bed to take them to the first-aid stations. The Navy's temporary hospital which stood near the railway station was soon filled up. Then the junior high school, the girl's high school, the three elementary schools, and even the agricultural experiment station, Butokuden Hall, etc. were packed up in due course.
All the injured who were brought into those aid stations suffered and groaned with pain, having large keloid scars everywhere on their bodies. It was too hard for us to look at or listen to them. Not in the Navy's temporary hospital nor in any other posts, were there futon mattresses or the like. So the people who were bombed and burned all over were put only on the rough, thin straw mats. It was too painful for them to remain lying there. They could only huddled like dogs and groan.
Then they started to complain of a thirst. They cried, "Water, water." It was strongly believed among people that giving water as demanded would lead seriously injured persons to immediate death. Therefore, they were given just a little bit of water, enough only to moisten their lips.
The seriously injured victims died one after another, many of them in two to three hours, some later, but in about ten hours all were dead.
I remember a man aged about forty who was admitted in Isahaya Dai-ichi Elementary School. He sneaked out of there. I guess he wanted to drink water. In the back of the station there was a brook, where the man was found dead. I could imagine he desperately crawled up to the brook, starving for water.
What a pity...

Bradford Open Door Community Project celebrates £222,000 Lottery grant
8:00am Friday 21st February 2014 in News
A learning zone in a Bradford church is one of nine projects across Yorkshire and the Humber sharing £2.8 million in Lottery good cause funding.
The non-religious Open Door Community Project based at St Oswald's West End Centre, in Christopher Street, has been awarded £222,243 to build on its good work in the Little Horton area.
The award is from the Reaching Communities programme, which gives out grants to help those most in need and build stronger communities.
The money means the centre will be able to expand its services by getting people more involved in community-based opportunities, gaining more skills and improving their job chances.
The learning zone within the centre will be promoting skills in English, mathematics and IT, with people being able to use the internet for information and to do job searches.
Centre manager Christine Mann said: "We have seen the correlation between unemployment and the downward spiral that can follow affecting health, as well as seeing the adverse effects of recent changes in welfare reforms, where people who have been on benefits are now being deemed fit enough and are being plunged back into finding work and all the changes and strains that can bring and adaptions that need to be made.
"The project will be about helping people to up-skill and find work and ways of improving the quality of their lives."
The Open Door Community Project is having a meeting on Tuesday, March 4, from 1pm for all volunteers and users to go along and hear more about what it hopes to do and to share their own wishlists for the future, said Mrs Mann.
As well as helping with skills, the project will raise awareness about health and well-being including conditions such as blood pressure and diabetes.
The funds mean the project will be able to take on two new paid workers and increase its opening hours.
"It's not about duplicating what is already being done – it's about building on it," said Mrs Mann.

Website Design Style Guide
Last year, I produced a short tutorial video on how to prepare Photoshop (PSD) files for web production. It's a quick overview of the process I use to properly set up and organize template files so that Newfangled's developers can use them to apply the visual design to the site architecture. One of the template types mentioned in the video is a style guide; a very useful "cheat sheet" containing text styles, colors, notations and key design elements that comprise the majority of a site's design. Since posting the video, I've recevied requests to provide an example file that our agency partners (or anyone) could download and use as a reference for creating their own style guide.
Style guides are useful for web designers in developing a site's look and feel and creating a "language" of design elements and text styles to be used throughout the site and provide a consistent user experience. A style guide is also an important reference for developers as they are building the site and setting up its visual architecture.
There are two files available for download (links at the bottom of this post). One is a layered Photoshop file that is identical to the kind I typically provide our developers. It's fairly large (6.8MB) and requries Photoshop CS3 or better to view and explore. The second file is a set of screen shots in PDF format of the Photoshop layout. It's a smaller file size but doesn't contain any artwork layers. However, it does show some of the hover states and interactive components.
What you'll find in the Style Guide
This particular style guide example is based on a client site we completed earlier in the year. It doesn't represent any specific page from the site, but it does contain 75-80% of the design elements found across the entire site, such as:
1) Design elements and content styles grouped in layers, including hover states and interactive features (layers marked in orange) and alternate design elements (layers marked in green)
2) Photoshop "sticky notes" that explain the functionality of different components
3) Notations (in magenta) that define font styles. You may not have these specific fonts installed on your computer, in which case you'll see an alert message when you open the file. You can simply ignore the alert. The fonts will display correctly unless you attempt to edit the text layers (you'll be prompted to select a replacement font). Highlighting any of the text with the type tool will reveal the original fonts in Photoshop's character palette.
I recommend you check out the companion video for some insight on how this style guide is organized, as well as how to create and prep Photoshop template files for web production.
Have fun exploring the files! If you have any questions or comments please let me know.

Everyday for 33 years Kathy Bohm went to work at the steel mill in Hennepin. Then suddenly, Kathy and the rest of the plant's 285 employees were laid off.
"At times it gets pretty darn sad," Bohm told News 25. "We're frustrated because it's out of our hands and it's not our fault that he's taken our jobs from us."
The laid off steelworkers say the mill shouldn't close because it's been turning a profit. They blame the owner, Lakshmi Mittal, one of the wealthiest men in the world, and say he's bent on moving their jobs out of the country. On Wednesday the community held a prayer vigil in the shadow of the idle plant in hopes of changing his mind.
"We need to keep this plant open," said Mike O'Connor, a laid off employee who worked at the plant for 40 years. " We're fighting a very large corporation in Arcelor Mittal that I believe has an agenda to shut down small plants like this all across the United States."
What's most frustrating to the laid off steelworkers is that their jobs could be saved. A California businessman named Russell Kingston has made an offer to buy the plant and rehire everyone. Arcelor Mittal, however, doesn't appear interested.
"The company told Congressman Aaron Schock and Senator Durbin that if they had an offer of $100-million they would consider that a point to start negotiations. Mr. Kingston has certainly made an offer in that range," said Dave York, the president of the local steelworkers union.
Terry Judd is a small businessman in Hennepin who participated in Wednesday's rally. He admires the attempt by his neighbors to make their voices heard.
"For a little town like this, what these people are doing here today, I'm very proud of this community. If he's ever going to listen I would think it would be now."
Hennepin mayor Kevin Coleman worries what the quality of life will be like without the steel mill.
"When they built this plant in the 1960's it set standards that this community didn't have," said Coleman. "Hennepin was a farm community back then and when the steel mill came in the standards were set a little bit higher. Everything in town is so much nicer because of the steel mill."
For now, local contractors are refusing to dismantle equipment inside the plant in deference to the laid off steelworkers. But if there's no sale that equipment will remain idle.

Cant we get a city as an object?
Or is there a way to geo-code a city address to find out all the coordinates of a city boundary and then to draw some poly-lines of this city?
Or something else?
There are lots of questions, but my requirement is simple: show different cities in a map
Thanks for your help!

Thanks to a new low emissions diesel engine, BMW models equipped with the twin-turbo 3.0-liter diesel inline-six motor will qualify for a tax credit, valued at up to $1,800.
The Advanced Lean Burn Technology Motor Vehicle Tax Credit has just been confirmed by the IRS, and is awarded to vehicles that burn significantly less fuel and produce less greenhouse gas emissions. The credit applies to the new 335d and X5 xDrive35d models and is valued at $900 and $1,800 respectively.
"Qualification for these tax credits is further recognition of the remarkable efficiency of our new BMW Advanced Diesel models," said Jim O'Donnell, President of BMW of North America, LLC.
The 335d and X5 xDrive35d share BMW's high-performance, BluePerformance twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six diesel motor that makes 265hp and 425 ft-lbs of torque. Thanks to all that power the 335d can hit 60 mph in just 6.0-seconds and the X5 xDrive35d will do the same sprint in just 6.9-seconds.
Despite the performance figures the 335d gets a modest 23 mpg in the city and an incredible 36 mpg on the highway! The diesel X5 is slightly less impressive (although still great for an SUV) with a city/highway rating of 19/26 mpg.
See the AutoGuide complete reviews of the 335d and X5 xDrive35d here:

"You have touched so many lives over the years and this is just our way of saying thank you," Roberts told Baker Thursday morning, when he and Baughn presented her with a special certificate of tribute, which was signed by Alabama State House Speaker Mike Hubbard and reads as follows:
State Representatives Bill Roberts and Richard Baughn hereby Recognize Ruth Teaford Baker
Whereas, Ruth Teaford Baker is a distinguished educator, historian and author whose family traces its Alabama roots to just after the War of 1812; and
Whereas, Ruth Teaford Baker attended both Walker College in Jasper and the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, and holds a B.S. Degree in English/History, M.A. Degree in Education/English, M.A. Degree in School Administration, and A.A. in Education/English; and
Whereas, Ruth Teaford Baker has earned numerous awards including: Favorite Teacher of Alabama, 1980; Alabama Teacher of the Year, 1982; Business and Professional Women's Woman of Achievement; Walker County's Mother of the Year; the State of Alabama Governor's Award; three House of Representatives of Alabama Awards; and Finalist in the Jacksonville State University Hall of Fame; and
