Sweeney Todd - Prog Metal Version will be presented in August at Mount Vernon's Undercroft Theatre as part of Landless Theatre's "Summer of Rock."
The Washington, D.C., theatre company, which is known for producing camp and satirical theatre, has also featured rock theatre in its lineup. They previously presented Richard Campbell's Frankenstein, a prog-metal opera fusion including company artists and local metal musicians.
"Sweeney is a natural fit for prog-metal," Melissa Baughman, associate producing director and resident director, said in a statement. "Aside from the dark story of murder and revenge, the score is operatic and intricate."
"Sondheim is a genius, so this is big," producing artistic director Andrew L. Baughman said in a statement. "He's giving us an amazing opportunity to break new ground in both the theatre and music scenes.
"We hope to see this Prog Metal Version live on beyond our premiere production," Baughman added. "Expect a concert staging where the music is front and center… and yes, there will be blood."
Sondheim's musical about a murderous barber premiered on Broadway in 1979, receiving the Tony Award for Best Musical. It has since been revived on Broadway twice and adapted into a musical motion picture.

Apple iPhone 4 Fix Revealed
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Apple (AAPL) has a "fix" for the iPhone 4 antenna problem after all. Now the problem becomes how the company will handle the replacement or repairs of the 3 million phones already sold.
Instead of defending its "there's no problem" stance anticipated at a special press conference Friday, Apple is likely to announce that it has a solution.
Apple has created "a design fix for the iPhone 4 that more adequately insulates the transceiver," said Rodman Renshaw analyst Ashok Kumar, who spoke to the company's manufacturing partners.
Apple has told its manufacturers to alter the iPhone production process to include an internal component that will insulate the defective antenna connection that has disrupted the phone's signal reception, said Kumar. This internal bumper will give Apple a non-cosmetic solution and will presumably avoid the need to change the appearance of the phone, said Kumar.Apple was not available for immediate comment. If true, the internal bumper "fix" raises questions of whether or not Apple is applying a Band-Aid to a serious hardware flaw. But perhaps an even larger issue for Apple: How the company gets the fix to more than 3 million iPhones already out the door. Kumar's information would jibe with a report from RBC's Mike Abramsky Thursday, who said iPhone supplies have gotten scarce. "Apple's online store today shows iPhone 4 availability now 3 weeks [out], up from 7-10 days a few days ago, possibly implying a transition in production," Abramsky wrote. Some analysts and industry image consultants have suggested that Apple could try to minimize the problem by offering antenna-insulating external bumpers -- for free -- to customers who have purchased the new iPhone 4. But Abramsky has modeled a total recall, worst-case scenario. According to Abramsky, the impact on Apple could cost as much as $1.8 billion in lost iPhone revenue for the quarter, an 11% shortfall. On the bottom line, the impact would translate to about 40 cents a share less than the $3.80 profit analysts are looking for in Apple's fourth quarter, said Abramsky. While the repair and recall process would create an enormous headache for Apple, there's still very little evidence that the blooming PR disaster will have any long-term impact on the company. Apple investors looking to get out ahead of a potential recall have been finding eager buyers looking to replace them during this cheaper entry into tech's hottest stock. And phone buyers, forget it. Apple stores continue to enjoy the kind of foot traffic that most stores only see around Christmas. --Written by Scott Moritz in New York.

SPECIAL OFFER: - Limited Time Only!
(The ad below will not display on your printed page)
You have a cleanser and moisturizer that you love, but they don't address your special skin concerns. To help you sort through the myriad of "breakthrough" potions out there, we've broken down three common skin concerns and paired them with product recommendations. Read on to find out what will really work for you:
Skin concern #1: Fine lines and wrinkles Product Rx: Look for a product containing alpha-hydroxy acid, retinol, or vita-niacin. Dermatologists consider these the gold standards in topical, over-the-counter wrinkle-fighters. They work by sloughing off old, dead skin cells and stimulating collagen production under the skin. To use: Apply after cleansing but before moisturizing, once each night, until your skin becomes used to the product. Then, step up application to twice daily. Be sure to use a sunscreen for daytime.
Skin concern #2: Dark spots and uneven tone Product Rx: Choose a lotion, cream, or serum containing skin-lightening ingredients such as hydroquinone or kojic acid. They work by slowing the overproduction of melanin, which causes the dark spots in the first place. Some doctors have found vitamin C to have a similar effect. To use: Follow package directions closely. Hydroquinone and kojic acid take at least six weeks to work, so be patient. And be sure to wear sunscreen outside, since the sun can worsen dark spots.
Skin concern #3: Lack of firmness and sagging Product Rx: While serious sagging can only be fixed by a plastic surgeon, some promising ingredients can help (if only temporarily). Copper is currently popping up in skin creams, and is said to help skin become firmer from the inside. Caffeine works like a temporary shrink-wrap, causing skin to tighten up for several hours. To use: Copper products can be used in place of your regular moisturizer. Be sure to wear sunscreen, however, since the sun can damage collagen under the skin, causing it to lose its strength and begin to sag. Products containing caffeine can be used as often as you like.

There are actually two lines of bolts on the right side of Walt's Wall - one goes pretty much directly up the water streak and one is just left of it. These two lines seemed pretty forced (i.e. squeezed-in), but the one directly up the water streak seemed nicer. At the top, I continued to stay right on what I assume is the "Kopischka Finish."

To help fight allergies, many people turn to honey as a natural alternative. But one group's findings say not all honey will benefit your symptoms.
An investigation by the Food Safety News shows nearly 75% of the honey in grocery stores isn't real. According to the investigation, most of the honey is watered down with high fructose corn syrup and the pollen is filtered out.
Tim Cunningham is a registered and licensed dietitian. "The idea is if the pollen is found still in the honey, then it's going to help with allergic symptoms," he said. "Obviously, if it's not in the honey, you're not going to get it that way either."
For those who use honey to help treat allergies, the processed kind is missing a key ingredient. He told us honey that is local and has a US Grade A rating is less likely to be filtered.
"If you're buying cheap honey, you don't know if it's going to be watered down or not watered down," Cunningham said.
We spoke with, Constintine Saadah, a local allergist about the benefits of using local honey to treat allergies. He told us using it isn't as beneficial as once believed. "We do not recommend it as a specific treatment for allergies. It's not going to hurt. If it helps, it helps," he said. "But practically speaking, you should be treated for allergies differently than just taking local honey."

A traffic crash involving two motorcycles left one motorcyclist dead and another seriously injured early Thursday morning.
According to Fort Myers Police, the motorcycles were both on Colonial Boulevard headed eastbound when they lost control and collided.
Witnesses say they heard the motorcycles traveling at a high rate of speed prior to the crash.
FMPD says they believe the motorcycles were traveling at speeds over 100 miles per hour.
One motorcyclist, 34-year-old Eric Daniel Pimentel Santiago, died on scene and the other, 23-year-old Luis Manel Bermudez Santiago, was transported to Lee Memorial Hospital as a trauma alert.
Neither motorcyclist had a motorcycle endorsement, nor were they wearing helmets.
Police believe alcohol was a factor in the crash.
Colonial Boulevard reopened around 7:00 a.m. after being closed for several hours after the crash.

A private south Georgia university just recorded a seventh consecutive year of record enrollment.
Thomas University registered 1,152 American students and nearly 150 international students this Spring Semester.
School officials attribute the increase to new sports teams, new construction, and new programs.
"Students have discovered us in many ways. We've expanded our athletic program. We have a much larger geographic reach than we've ever had in the past. So we're kind of bucking the national trend which is a decrease in enrollment," said TU President Dr. Gary Bonvillian.
Bonvillian says with the opening of their new West Campus and new academic building, he expects the upward trend to continue.

When I asked Justice Scalia in an interview last year about his combative style during oral arguments, he defended himself by making comparisons with other justices. "I don't think it's true that I am the most talkative," he said, adding that such distinction would go to Justice Breyer, who asks long hypothetical questions. Then Scalia became more animated and said, "You ever hear Ruth excoriate somebody who is arguing a … case? She can be really tough."
I was reminded of that assessment this week as Justice Ginsburg forcefully questioned lawyers at the lectern and would not let up on a line of attack in several cases. She was, as usual, deep into the nooks and crannies of the disputes. At one point during arguments over a City of Chicago test for firefighters that hurt African American applicants, she told Deputy U.S. Solicitor General Neal Katyal, siding with challengers to the city, "I think you had a footnote in your reply brief that said if your position prevails here …" A few minutes later, when city lawyer Benna Ruth Solomon took the lectern, Ginsburg asked seven questions in a row, probing flaws in the city's case.
The next day, Justice Ginsburg challenged Georgetown University law professor David Cole as he defended the Humanitarian Law Project's desire to support nonviolent activities of the Kurdistan Workers' Party. The PKK, as it is called, is a militant separatist group in Turkey that the U.S. Secretary of State has designated a "foreign terrorist organization."
"There are a lot of groups on the (foreign terrorist organization) list," Ginsburg noted. "I think the Al-Qaeda was one instance that was mentioned and, at least according to the briefs, you conceded that if you wanted to do just what you describe with respect to the Kurdish group or the Tamil group, the (U.S. government's) ban (on any support of the organization) would be permissible."
Cole responded, "We didn't actually concede that, your honor." Cole then tried to explain the difference between humanitarian support for Al-Qaeda or the Taliban, as opposed to the PKK. Before he could clarify, other justices raised questions.
Then Cole, seeing the white light at the lectern and knowing he had less than five minutes left, said to Chief Justice Roberts, "If I could reserve the rest of my time" for rebuttal.
But Ginsburg wasn't going to let him sit down just yet: "Do you want to give an answer to the Taliban and the Al-Qaeda?"
"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Justice Ginsburg," Cole said. "The answer would be we are in a military conflict with the Al-Qaeda and the Taliban. … Therefore treason law might be applicable. … Number two, it is not clear that Al-Qaeda engages in any lawful activities … ."
When Solicitor General Elena Kagan stepped up to defend the disputed prohibition on not only financial support but training and advice to designated organizations, Ginsburg poked holes in her claim that the government was not targeting speech.
"How about what's involved here?" Ginsburg asked. "I think they (Humanitarian Law Project members) said that they want to train them (the Kurds) how to … pursue their goals in a lawful, rather than a terrorist, way. And that is speech. It is not conduct. They want to engage in advocacy of peaceful means … ."
When other justices joined the fray with hypothetical questions about assistance for arguably lawful activities, including (as Justice Sotomayor suggested) teaching the harmonica, Scalia scoffed and asked Kagan:
"Why do these hypotheticals make any difference? Clearly the broad scope of this statute is constitutional, and whatever aspects of speech it may run afoul of are minimal. That being the case, of what relevance are these hypotheticals? It's a lot of fun and it's very interesting, but we can deal with all of that when the situations arise, can't we?"
Kagan responded, "I do think that the answer to that is 'yes,' Justice Scalia."
But then Ginsburg interjected, reminding her old friend Scalia that not all justices were as supportive of the government's position: "The answer on the other side is, all we want to do is speak about lawful activity."
When I once asked Ginsburg about Scalia, she said, "I love him. But sometimes I'd like to strangle him."

Clayton County police have arrested a Riverdale man in connection with a triple shooting at a Waffle House restaurant in Lovejoy that injured three people.
Police said 21-year-old Deuntae Jones was arrested after a traffic stop following the incident.
Jones is charged with three counts of aggravated assault and other charges.
Restaurant workers told police that the incident occurred about 12:30 a.m. after a large group came into the restaurant. The employees said the group appeared to be upset and a fight quickly broke out and spilled into the parking lot when shots were fired.
Two victims were taken to a hospital from the restaurant and the third person ran to a nearby hotel and was transported to a hospital for treatment.
A fifth arrest has been made in connection with the murder of a 13-year-old in his own bedroom on Sunday.

Starbucks® Veranda Blend®
Mellow & Soft
A lot of work went into this relaxing cup.
The Story of Veranda Blend®
In Latin America, coffee farms are often run by families, with their own homes on the same land where their coffee grows. We've sipped coffee with these farmers for decades, sitting on their verandas, overlooking the lush beauty of the coffee trees rolling out in the distance. Most times it was a lightly roasted coffee like this one. It took us more than 80 tries to get it right—mellow and flavorful with a nice softness.
Body: Light
Acidity: Medium
Processing: Washed
Is your coffee in the grocery stores the same as the coffee in your stores?
Absolutely—only the packaging is different. This is so you can easily find your Starbucks favorites in the coffee aisle.

CORNER — A classic baseball pitcher's duel was decided by a defensive mistake, as Thorsby's Bo Hoffman reached base on an error and scored on another in their 1-0 win at Corner on Tuesday.
Hoffman, the Rebels' pitcher, allowed just two hits and struck out five in the complete-game victory. Cody Gilbert allowed three hits and struck out three in the loss. Neither pitcher allowed a walk; Hoffman had one hit batsman.
The Jackets had a chance for a rally in the third inning with the bases loaded and one out, but Hoffman then struck out Gilbert and Josh Walker to end the threat.
Gilbert was in good form early, retiring 12 of the first 13 Thorsby batters until he ran into trouble in the fifth.
Denham Childress was the only batter in the game with more than one hit, going 2-for-3 for the Rebels.

Recurring Theme: The Environmental Protection Agency, already revealed in June to have allowed a contractor to maintain taxpayer-funded "man caves" (TVs, appliances, couches, videos, etc.) hidden away in a Washington, D.C.-area warehouse, made the news again during the government shutdown in October when soup with a 1997 expiration date was found during the shutdown in an EPA employees' refrigerator. Furthermore, in September, former high-level EPA executive John Beale pleaded guilty to defrauding the agency of $900,000 in salary, expenses and bonuses dating back to the 1990s by claiming work orders (including secret projects for the CIA) that no one at EPA appears ever to have tried to verify.
Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro created a "Vice Ministry of Supreme Social Happiness" to coordinate the welfare programs begun by the late President Hugo Chavez. Critics charged, however, that there is much to be unhappy about, given the country's annual rate of inflation (near 50 percent), and an Associated Press dispatch quoted one critic who said she would be happy enough if only stores were not constantly out of milk and toilet paper. (Another skeptic said he looked forward to maybe a Vice Ministry of Beer).
— The U.S. government has engaged in some legendarily wasteful projects, but leaders in China's Yungai village (pop. 3,683), in Hunan province, have surely raised the bar for epic squander after borrowing the equivalent of $2.4 million and building an impressive seven-story government headquarters — but with 96 still-unlooked-out front windows because there is no activity beyond the first floor. According to an October London Daily Telegraph report, the only occupants are the village government's eight employees.
— Though many people might agree with blind musician Stevie Wonder that it is "crazy" to let people like him carry guns, federal and state laws seem ambiguous, according to a lengthy analysis of Iowa's supplied by the Des Moines Register in September. Some Iowa sheriffs believe that federal anti-discrimination law limits their discretion (though they can deny permits for lack of physical or mental ability to handle the gun). The National Federation of the Blind generally trusts its members never to use guns recklessly, a spokesman said, and blind Iowa activist Michael Barber emphasized his right. "(Y)ou take it out and point and shoot," he said, "and I don't necessarily think eyesight is necessary. ... For me, the inspiration is just to see if I run into any difficulties."
Great Art!
Leandro Granato, 27, said that he discovered, as a kid in Argentina, that liquids sucked up through his nose could then be squirted out of his eye — and an art career was born. News sites reported in October that Granato's "eye paintings" of ink colors, splattered out as tears on canvas in various motifs (from up to 1 1/2 pints of ink each), are offered for sale at a top-end price of the equivalent of $2,400 each. (Huffington Post's story also reminded readers that Chilean artist Carina Ubeda is another who uses her body functions as a medium — specifically, her menstrual blood, which she employed in the form of 90 used sanitary napkins arranged in a hoop featuring an apple, symbolizing ovulation. Her June show ran in Quillota, Chile.)
Police Report
— Informal Georgia Sobriety Tests: Rachel Gossett blew a .216 alcohol reading in Loganville, Ga., in November, but that was probably a formality after an officer witnessed her attempt to put a cheeseburger from a Waffle Shop onto her foot as if it were a shoe. And Rashad Williams, 38, was charged with DUI in Atlanta in October after he crashed through the front of a Walgreens drugstore and then, according to a witness, calmly exited his vehicle (which was sticking halfway into the building) and resumed drinking next door at the Anchor Bar.
— Round Up the Usual Suspect: Indicted for rape in August in Hamilton County, Tenn.: Mr. John Allan Raper, 19. (Other recent miscreants were Mr. Batman Suparman, 23, convicted in Singapore in November of housebreaking and theft, and Mr. Bamboo Flute Blanchard, 18, who was arrested in June in Gainesville, Fla., and accused of trying to stab his father for an unreported provocation — although one possible motive suggests itself.)
— Chutzpah!: Sheriff's deputy Darrell Mathis of Newton County, Ga. (30 miles east of Atlanta), a five-year veteran, was arrested in September and charged with selling marijuana locally -- from his squad car, in uniform, and apparently without inhibition. A confidential informant, unnerved by Mathis' alleged brazenness, convinced FBI agents in April 2013 to do a by-the-book sting.

Water wonders at Wylye
10:41am Saturday 1st December 2012 in News By Morwenna Blake
SEWAGE soup and water samples fascinated youngsters at a south Wiltshire school.
Children at Wylye Valley School welcomed Duncan Forbes and Gillian Smith from Wessex Water into their lessons last week in a visit organised by the Wylye World Warriors, the school's eco group.
The day began with a whole school assembly looking at the water cycle and why water is so important in our daily lives. Pupils also got to have a go at testing some water samples and looked at sewage soup, which showed them the state of water when it leaves people's homes.
"It has been a very successful day today. Wessex Water have been very helpful in encouraging the pupils in how to save water and raise awareness of water wastage," said Maia Poolman, chairman of the Wylye World Warriors.
The eco group monitors the schools weekly water consumption and the school has made changes such as ensuring unnecessary lights are switched off and paper, cans and other materials are all recycled.
The hard work of the Eco Group and whole school was recognised in February 2012 when the school was awarded Green Flag status.

School to honor girl who drowned in Glades canal
By Jason Schultz
Glade View Elementary School will honor one of its own next Wednesday, a girl who died along with several of her family members when their car plunged into a canal near Belle Glade that has been the site of numerous deaths in recent years.
The school will hold a memorial ceremony and dedicate a plaque to 10-year-old Midjina Fenelus, who died on Feb. 12 when the car she was riding in swerved off westbound State Road 8 into a deep canal south of the road about eight miles east of Belle Glade.Fenelus drowned, along with her mother, 32-year old Dieula Francois and her sister, 3-year-old Claudiz Joseph Francois, before rescuers could get to the car. According to Palm Beach County Sheriff's officials Fenelus called 911 from a cell phone in the car to try to get help as the family was drowning.
The memorial dedication will include the reading of a poem, the placement of the plaque and a performance of the Elton John song "Candle in the Wind." The ceremony will be held Wednesday, May 4 at 12:30 p.m. at the school, which is located at 1100 S.W. Ave. G in Belle Glade.
The death of Fenelus and her family was the latest in a long line of drownings in the canal along the south side of State Road 80 between the 20-mile bend area and Belle Glade since 2004. Angry local officials like County Commissioner Jess Santamaria last summer called on the state Department of Transportation to put up guardrails after several similar drownings.
After Fenelus' death Santamaria and other officials said the state was taking too long to get the guardrail project designed and put out for bid and the road needed the rails now. State transportation officials originally said they could not even bid out the project until July because there was no money for the $4 million project until next year.
After the lobbying by Palm Beach County officials following Fenelus' death DOT officials agreed to speed up the project so the installation of the 18 miles worth of guardrails would begin in July and be done by the end of the year.
Palm Beach County Sheriff's spokeswoman Teri Barbera said she is also working with Palm Beach County Drowning Prevention Coalition Manager Anna Stewart to create a public awareness campaign to honor Fenelus. The campaign would teach children how to use a cell phone and call for help in the event of an emergency as well as drowning prevention.

should it be possible to make a "Mailmigration" with drag/drop from Outlook/Thunderbird/TheBat to Zimbra ?
Thank's a lot for any feedback!
Yes this works. It's not the fastest way and you may need to move each folder one at a time but it does work. This is the only way for user's who had POP before and the only copy of the mail is on the local PC. If your mail is on the server and you have IMAP access best bet is to use imapsync. Do a search on the forums to get more help with imapsync.
Looking for new beta users -> Co-Founder of Acompli. Previously worked at Zimbra (and Yahoo! & VMware) since 2005.
Thank's KevinH for the tip. In this case I am doing something wrong.
It does not work in our environment. We tried different browsers
(Firefox and Opera) and several mail-clients (Thunderbird and
Are there other requirements?
Thank's for your help!
I think you didn't understand KevinH right. You cant drag the mail items from your mail client into the browser.
You would have to connect to the Zimbra server via POP3 or IMAP, then you can drag the mails into the Zimbra account (but both accounts, old and Zimbra have to be configured in one mail client).
Thank`s goetzi, you got it! Ok that procedure is as well pretty easy.

JACKSON, MS—Mississippi took a direct hit from Hurricane Katrina in 2005 though the state is often overshadowed by the catastrophic flooding of New Orleans, the city President Barack Obama visits Thursday to assess recovery on the Gulf Coast.
Some Mississippians are disheartened Obama is skipping their state.
"I'm greatly disappointed he's not coming to Mississippi," said Tommy Longo (pictured at left), mayor of Waveland, Miss., a town where almost every standing structure was destroyed or damaged.
"There was no city hit harder than Waveland," he said.
This is Obama's first trip to New Orleans as president, though he visited Louisiana several times before his inauguration, promising to speed up recovery from the 2005 storm. Obama also visited several Mississippi cities during his presidential campaign, but not the heavily damaged coastal areas. Several members of his administration, including Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, have visited the area.
"President Obama's commitment to Mississippi's recovery is demonstrated by his tireless work to cut through the bureaucratic red tape and improve coordination among federal agencies and local partners who have too-often failed to collaborate in the past four years," White House spokeswoman Gannet Tseggai said in a statement Wednesday. "As a result, public assistance projects that had been stuck for years have moved forward since the start of the Administration."
Tseggai said the Federal Emergency Management Agency has obligated over $160 million for Mississippi recovery and more than $2.5 billion in Recovery Act funds have been announced for Mississippi since Obama took office.
U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat and chairman of the House Homeland Security committee, said in a statement that Obama "has made significant commitments to Mississippi's rebuilding and mitigation efforts and I'm sure this will not be his last trip down there."
But U.S. Rep. Gene Taylor, a Democrat whose district includes the Mississippi coast, wrote a letter to Obama this week that began by pointing out the president hasn't visited the area.
Taylor criticized the administration for opposing legislation to reform the National Flood Insurance Program, which Taylor believes would prevent gaps in coverage for millions of people who live areas vulnerable to hurricanes.
"If you visited the Mississippi Gulf Coast today, you would find that some areas have recovered, but in the cities of Waveland, Bay St. Louis, Pass Christian and in portions of other cities and counties, only one-half to two-thirds of the homes have been rebuilt," Taylor wrote.
Katrina made landfall near Bay St. Louis and Waveland, about 50 miles east of New Orleans. It cut a path of destruction for miles inland and left thousands homeless. Casino, tourism and other industries on the Mississippi coast were left in ruins.
"I wish he would come put his feet on the ground and see what we're doing and what continued support that we need," said Longo, a Democrat who has been Waveland mayor since 1998.
Biloxi, Miss., Mayor A.J. Holloway, a Republican in his fifth term, is "a little disappointed" that Obama won't be coming to Mississippi but he said the president is a busy man.
"We made a decision after Katrina that we are not going to be into victimhood and blame and pointing fingers," Holloway said. "I don't think that we've been overlooked with the billions of dollars in federal aid" spent in Mississippi.
In nearby Gulfport, first-term Republican Mayor George Schloegel wrote in a city newsletter this week that he's glad Obama is visiting Louisiana, but he hopes the struggles there are taken as an example of challenges across the region.
"It's no secret that the eye of Katrina rolled ashore in South Mississippi - our communities received a direct hit with high winds and a massive storm surge," Schloegel wrote. "So with that, we feel confident the president understands that if New Orleans has yet to recover from its broken levees, then certainly we here at ground zero have not begun to reach the finish line."
Katrina lashed southern Louisiana before taking aim at Mississippi. Many people in New Orleans were temporarily relieved, thinking the city had escaped with a strong, but glancing blow.
Then the levees failed and much of the city was flooded. Officials estimated that more than 1,600 people died in Louisiana and Mississippi, with many of the deaths in New Orleans.

Hundreds of children die in Arizona every year. State health officials are putting more emphasis on preventing deaths by suicide, drowning and maltreatment.
The Arizona Department of Health Services released its child fatality annual report today for 2011.
It found 837 children died last year. That's a drop from the previous year, when 862 children died.
However, there was an up tick in the number of suicides. State health officials believe most of the drownings could have been prevented.
They found that 94 percent of drowning deaths in 2011 were preventable.

- Revisited and Still love the placeCidaliseDined on 8/22/2014This is simply a wonderful, affordable great French bistro. The scallops were terrific as was the carpaccio. Lovely, easy place. Contrary to some reviews, there IS air conditioning, and it was delightfully comfortable in 90+ weather in Washington. It is a great place for date night.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 8/8/2014Go to this place for lunch over dinner. The service is more relaxed and tentative and the food choices as good or better. Problem is that the same people serve at this place and the pizza place below. PP owns both. In the evening they are like marathon runners going up and down the stairs. But, the food is good and the restaurant interior very pleasant. Small patio for outdoor dining.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- KimbizDined on 8/1/2014Our neighborhood favorite with consistently wonderful bistro food. Always welcomed like a honored guest at a friends home.Special Features:
- Petit PlatspickydinerDined on 7/22/2014Good food and good range of choices on menu but lots of stairs for an older person or someone with disabilities. No way to get to the rest rooms if you can't climb up and down 2 full flights.Special Features:
- French through and through...DaisyDined on 7/20/2014Petits Plats is just down the street, but I had never tried it before. A Monday night is not really the best test of any restaurant, there were a few diners inside and a large group outside, so it was pretty quiet. Aside from that, the staff are friendly and efficient, the menu has a wide range of options for starters and mains (we didn't look at dessert), and there was quite a good wine list. The food was excellent, delicious, well-seasoned, fresh and interesting. We left full but not stuffed, which is especially nice on a hot summer night. The location is in an old townhouse structure which gives it an intimate, charming atmosphere and I imagine on other nights when there are more diners, it has a convivial buzz.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful dining experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 7/12/2014Another wonderful dining experience at Petit Plats! The food is creative and the atmosphere is energetic. It's no wonder the owner of Petit Plats is also in charge of the French Embassy's dining!Special Features:
- DeliciousOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 6/23/2014We were a group of 13 and 1 child. The wait person was excellent. Did not hurry us. Knew the wines, which were excellent. And the food was great. Recommend.Special Features:
- They took Jeremiah!mckcingoliDined on 6/22/2014The folks are Petits Plats are so French that they allowed me to commandeer the outdoor balcony with a friend and my rather large but very well-behaved dog, Jeremiah. We were the only ones on the balcony (there's also an open terrace below), so we didn't disturb anyone. Very nice atmosphere and terrific food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WinifredVIPDined on 6/13/2014A very lovely meal. Comfortable environment, service was wonderful. Food fantasticSpecial Features:
- No Air ConditioningSheil31VIPDined on 6/12/2014We have been to this restaurant only twice. One time was during a heat wave when they said the air conditioning was not working. Well it seems they do not have air conditioning. There is a ceiling fan and they open the windows for air to come in. Luckily it was a nice day but the fan was annoyingly blowing on our heads. The food is okay but there are much better French restaurants. Had to ask twice for ketchup for my French Fries. People at the next table had to wait a long time to pay their bill.Special Features:
- Consistently great foodOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 6/11/2014The food here is wonderful. French fare. Serving size is reasonable--not too big, not too small. The atmosphere is nice. You can stick around and eat a meal without feeling rushed. Service was not as good this time. I have food allergies and my server did not listen. Had to send the meal back twice, but the chef got it right eventually. I think it was a communication issue...Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dependable and GoodProntomacVIPDined on 5/30/2014PP is always a good choice for a pleasant evening--inside or outside--and a solid menu that does not disappoint. The wine list is "notable" because it is one big page of very good selections at reasonable prices. This is always a nice place for families as well.Special Features:
- Nice dining experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 5/23/2014Great for a special occasion. We were entertaining our visiting daughter who enjoys French cuisine and it was a very nice change of pace from the chain 'americanized' French restaurants.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice romantic spotLB6030Dined on 5/15/2014The food was delicious, the service was ok. It is not for the casual drop in/ walk by. You need to be fully dressed to the nines to eat here----very different than what their website claimed.Special Features:
- Lunch at Petits PlatsOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 5/15/2014Food was good, service only fair at the very best. Ordered one soup, was served the other; at least the server assistants kept filling our water glasses. Overly warm - as it was the day before when I had a meeting there - food was good but atmosphere less than inviting.Special Features:
- bad choice for mothers daygeoromDined on 5/11/2014This was our 1st time at Petits Plats. We order a pate and returned it. The kids order what was supposed to be NY steak and it was some unknow meet, very fatty. My wife and I went for the sea food grill and it was blend. The guys working outside were nice. I will not recommend this place to a friend.
- pleasnantly surprisedSimplefoodDined on 5/11/2014Had never heard of this restaurant and it was very good -- brunch items were excellent and the service was great. Would like try this place for dinner -- as the menu looks like it would be excellent. Simple french foods that are properly prepared and there is something for everyone.Special Features:
- The following 543 reviews are from the Petits Plats reviews archive.

We kept trying other restaurants or forgetting try Petits Plats. We finally went with two other couples. We loved it! Simple presentation of traditional French cuisine. The Foie Gras and Confit are excellent. Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable about the wine list. Everyone was glad we choose Petits Plat. We'll go back.Special Features:

- Waiter Disappeared71terpVIPDined on 4/13/2014Without going though the entire saga, after delivering the drink order, our waiter disappeared.

- Lovely eveningUKFoodiesVIPDined on 4/11/2014Met a friend for a Friday night meal at Petit Plats. The inside dining room was very quaint, but in the heat it was quite warm. My friend and I shared two appetizers (both salads) that were lovely. I had the trout with almonds and the fish was cooked to perfection. Our lovely and very friendly server also recommended a divine glass of Sancerre. Would return for sure - a nice neighborhood gem.Special Features:
- I went to Petit Plats forOpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 4/10/2014I went to Petit Plats for lunch in the middle of week. Got a nice seat at the window. I started with the foie gras with cherry jam, which was really lovely. For the entree, I had the special, which was trout with asparagus and mushrooms with potatoes and ham. Really buttery and flavorful. I also got the bread pudding, which I probably didn't need, since I was pretty full already, but I love bread pudding so much. The waitstaff is very pleasant and professional. I would definitely go back.Special Features:
- What a wonderful meal!WillowjaneDined on 4/2/2014I brought my mother to visit Washington. We were staying nearby and we just didn't want the usual hotel type food. I had heard of this place and thought I would give it a try. From the minute we walked up the stairs to the entrance we were greeted and treated with such respect and consideration. It was a bit cool for us to eat outside so we opted for inside. The room we ate in (3 nights of the trip!) was a cozy little space with great ambiance. The service was impeccable and the food was just simply fantastic! Over the 3 dinners we had mussels, duck confit, grilled branzino, salmon, foie gras, a great salad with beets and a wonderful onion soup. The wine that was recommended was spot on. I would highly recommend this restaurant!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great find!ThomasDined on 3/3/2014I was in town for a conference, and one of my colleagues suggested Petit Plats. I had a frisée salad to start with foie gras and duck confit. Perfect. I followed that with a fruites de mer and risotto main. Excellent. A properly prepared Ricard made me feel I was in an authentic French place. Nice selection of wines. Strongly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A nice find on a snowy eveningJBobDined on 3/3/2014Was looking for a place in walking distance of my hotel on one of Washington's seemingly endless number of snowy evenings this past winter. Walked in, was seated in a room with a crackling fire in the fireplace. Enjoyed a traditional French Onion Soup and Beef Bourgignone. Food, atmosphere and service all came to together to make a memorable evening. Only regret is that my wife wasn't there to enjoy it with me.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Nice eveningEmilyjhVIPDined on 2/15/2014We met a group of friends who were staying at the Omni hotel for dinner. Very convenient walking location for them. Delicious, pleasant evening for all.

- good French food !OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 2/14/2014Very surprise by this restaurant, good food, good choice of wine... we were here for Valentine's night. The menu came with good choices, portions were a little bit smaller than I expected (I'm French, sorry!), but very tasty !!! The service was perfect, with a french touch... quiet and pleasant, just the way we like. I'll definitely come back to try their regular menu, wich sounds amazing for quality/prices !!! If you know french food, or if you want to try the french quality, it's the place to go!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The negative reviews have meritbcindcDined on 2/14/2014I read many reviews before making my reservation for V day with my girlfriend. I immediately experienced the hurried and slightly disorganized host. The table next to us was asking for bread for 10-15 minutes. The bread girl spoke zero English and/or simply ignored our request for bread. Our waiter was not sure, at times, which course we were on. These things don't really bother me but I really noticed it because other reviewers talked about poor service too. The food was excellent though and that's why I made my reservation in spite of the negative comments about service. I don't feel that my experience was worthy of the $200 price tag for two I'd rather go to Bistro Du Coin which is consistently excellent in food quality AND service..Special Features:
- poor service, ignored by waiterdcdinersVIPDined on 2/14/2014Food very good, service very poor. So neglected by our waiter that diners at the next table commented & asked him why we were being ignored. We were seated & the table seated after us was waited on while no one came to our table for quite some time. We didn't even have menus. No one brought us bread until we asked several times and then no butter. Finally brought butter but they had taken the knife away with the salad plate. (yes just getting bread and butter after the salad) could not get waiter's attention so had to spread the butter with a fork. The service stayed pretty much that poor & rude the whole evening,capped off by cold coffee, not warm, cold. A meal this expensive should have way better service Not busy enough to excuse thisSpecial Features:
- DeliciousWoodhouseDined on 2/14/2014The service was quick and doting, and the food was superb. The restaurant is a house, and when you arrive and are seated, you feel as though you are being given a tour of someone's home, only one in which each room is full of people eating, often at close quarters.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Comments: Awesome product. An oversized UV, Pentair fluidized bed filter, and a good skimmer make a world of difference in keeping any of the delicate marine species out there.
Comments: For those that believe you get what you pay for, and hope this money is well spent. It is in my opinion. Well built, well packaged. There are many options to this unit that make it easy to install and clean. The unit was well packaged. No fear of the light being damaged. Everything tight and secure.
Large 2" threaded caps (to mount your hose barbs to) with O ring seals to allow any position when using 90 degree fittings. The large opening allows for easy cleaning and quick release without fighting hose barbs. the lite is well secured and sealed, including a water tight seal on the electrical cord, which is insanely long. The book says do not submerge, but I bet it could and a quick dip if something happened.
Comments: I had green water for awhile before I bought this product. I did the usually things of changing the water, using chemicals, and I stopped feeding the bottom feeders (hoping they would eat more algae).
Installed this product on a Friday, came back to the office on a Monday and the tank was super clean.
Very nice. Have had it for 2 weeks now and the water is super clean. Not sure how long it will last, but so far for me it is worth it.
Comments: I have a 100 gallon fresh water tank and install it. Work over night to me. The fish are happy it is well worth what you pay for.
Comments: THE AQUA ULTRAVIOLET 80W UV STERILIZER IS A MUST FOR KEEPING YOUR POND AND FISH POND CLEAN AND HEALTHIER LOOKING. I AM GLAD I BOUGHT IT ALONG WITH THE ULTIMA II 2000 FILTER. I DIDN'T WANT TO REGRET LATER ON FOR NOT HAVING INSTALLED ONE. IT IS A BIT PRICEY BUT THEN AGAIN, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!

The man who escaped from a correctional facility in Vinita was taken into custody Wednesday evening after he was found at his former stepdaughter-now-girlfriend's residence.
James Maxwell, 49, was taken into custody by the Northern Oklahoma Violent Crimes Task Force near 4500 Gilcrease Expressway. Stephanie Starr, his girlfriend, was also arrested by Tulsa Police.
According to the task force, officers obtained information that led them to Starr's apartment complex where they had been staying. They were able to confirm the reports when Maxwell and Starr left the apartment and go into a red Dodge truck.
Police followed the vehicle and were able to arrest both. During the arrest they found a firearm in the vehicle and marijuana.
Maxwell had been incarcerated for assault and battery on a police officer at the Northeast Correctional Center in Vinita. Starr's was arrested on charges of harboring a fugitive and possession of a firearm.

Cyrus Daniel Morton
Born on Sept. 22, 1986
VICTORIA - Cyrus Daniel Morton, greatly loved son, brother, nephew, cousin, and friend, departed our world for his journey onward on May 10, 2013 at 7:58pm. He was born September 22, 1986 at 7:58am to Mark and Melissa Morton.
Cy, to his friends, and Cy-bo to his family, was more kind and gentle than his life's circumstances asked him to be. He taught us how to live life with a smile, to hug everyone, and to appreciate our lives during our short time on earth. Though his wit was sharp, he lived and loved with laughter every one of his days. He was an irreverently gifted poet and musical artist who had much to offer.
He is survived by his parents, Mark and Melissa Morton; sister, Kate Morton; and his brother, Jason Starr, Don and Betsy Blavier, Angus McGinty, Amy and David Brown, cousins Samantha, Hunter, Kayla, Gavin, and Maddie, and droves and droves of friends.
Though his life ended prematurely, his undying inspirational spirit will dwell in the many lives he touched, who will carry on and always remember Cyrus' smiling face and know, with love, that he was the best of all of us.
A service in his honor will be held Thursday, May 16, 2013, at 4:20 pm, at the Hiller House, 3003 Vine, Victoria Texas 77901.

The baby looks beautiful. Typically children with this condition have "Potter facies"--i.e. flattened facial features as the face is not sufficiently buffered by amniotic fluid in utero. It seems like she's in excellent hands.

Remote, rugged and relaxing Laikipia.
Laikipia is an area of remote and scenic landscapes that nudges Kenya's wild Northern Frontier.
The Laikipia Plateau is the name given the eastern escarpment of the Great Rift Valley which, although it has no national parks, is the only place in Africa where the numbers of wildlife are on the increase. The land has very diverse features of open savannah, acacia woodlands, basalt hills and rugged kopjes and its eco system successfully supports a wide range of wildlife in fact the plateau is home to more endangered species than anywhere else in East Africa. The Ewaso Nyiro and Ewaso Narok rivers irrigate the plateau and support the abundant wildlife.
The land is divided into a patchwork of enormous ranches which in partnership and co-operation of their owners have created game conservancies that enjoy thriving game and some of the most exclusive luxury safari camps and lodges in Kenya. The cattle ranches are managed by local communities and this creates an interesting mix of local culture working in partnership with conservation and tourism. However, it is a tough existence for the Maasai herders who know their precious cattle are easy prey for the big cats.
The Big Five – lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo and elephant – always at the top of the game viewing poll are thriving and indeed the plateau is one of the last refuges of the endangered Black Rhino. The elephant population is Kenya's largest outside of the national parks and reserves. In addition there are rich populations of Grevy's Zebra, eland and established packs of wild dog, one of Africa's most elusive and rare creatures.
Ol Pejeta, a 100,000 acre game conservancy, is situated at the foot of Mount Kenya and is home to East Africa's largest and most important rhino sanctuary with its research credited as being at the forefront of rhino conservation. Guests staying at Ol Pejeta Bush Camp, a small intimate camp set on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River can experience wildlife conservation first hand and enrich their safari experience with interactive activities. In addition to the rhino projects the conservancy is also home to a Chimpanzee sanctuary.
The magical ingredients of a safari spent on the wide Laikipia plateau are on many wish lists and include the amazing breadth of game viewing, exceptional scenery, peaceful remoteness and total solitude together with the exclusiveness of the accommodation. The terrain lends itself to a variety of activities in addition to the game drives which occur both day and night, horse riding, mountain biking and walking safari's accompanied by a Maasai guide. A unique activity is to spend a night on the Kiboko or Koija Star beds – wooden platforms overlooking the Ewaso Nyiro River or a waterhole and although partially thatched overhead in the main it is the African sky that provides the roof.
Because all the superb accommodation in Laikipia is on private land guests enjoy a uniquely personal safari experience. The luxury tented camps, small attractive lodges and private house accommodation have exceptional comforts, wonderful views and situated in such a way as to enhance the feeling of remoteness and exclusivity.

Brooks Hays By J. O. W' Young Brooks Hays made a wonderful showing in his race for governor in Tuesday's primary. There is no dishonor attached to his defeat. He made a clean race, fought a brave fight, led a gallant host, and I predict that he will be governor of Arkansas at no distant day. Stranger things have happened in politics. The cry that Brooks Hays was too young to measure up to the responsibilities of the office was not well founded. This is a day when the business and political life of the nation is calling mere and more tor young men of Brooks Hays' type. Going back into the records of the past, the history of the world is rich in the achievements of young men. Shakespeare was 36 when he wrote Hamlet, and at that age Lord Byron laid down the burdens of life. Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence at 32, a document that breathed forth every essential principle of democracy and brought to the western world the grandest government that ever flourished in all the tide of time. Napoleon took command of the army of Italy at 27, and started on the moat brilliant military career to be found in history, a career that did not end until the people of France brought him back from Saint Helena amid the boom of cannon and the trickle of a nation's tears to the lordliest tomb in all the earth. Sam Houston, the most romantic figure in American history, was governor Of Tennessee at 26. Before reaching the early thirties his restless spirit had led him into the wilds of Texas, a domain which years before had wooed the ambition of Aaron Burr. Houston made of Texas an independent republic, and destiny made of it the largest state in the American Union. Dan Moody is governor down there, and Dan doesn't wear whiskers. Brooks Hays too young to be governor of Arkansas? Not on your life! He is still headed for that exalted station and will arrive two or four years from now as sure as he lives. Harvey Parnell is a young man himself and I like him. He will make Arkansas a good governor—is already doing it. The primary settled one thing definitely. Arkansas is forever safe from the menace of Tom Terral's demagoguery. Tom's goose is cooked, his name Dennis. Carroll Cona has nothing to be ashamed of in the contest just closed. He missed the "splendid misery'' of the state's highest office, but the chilling tide of defeat will not freeze the genial current of his soul. Carroll Cone is by no means a "dead one." I stili [sic] love my old friend Ben Griffin. Ten thousand defeats could not freeze the warmth of his Irish heart, Ben will continue to bour-geon [sic] and bloom biennially until the Democratic party is no more. -The Gould Advance [handwritten script]

Tournaments aplenty mark opening of Ham and Petersham Tennis Club clubhouse
2:00am Thursday 22nd May 2014 in Sport By Amy Dyduch
It was game, set and match for a tennis clubhouse, which had its grand reopening this month.
Siblings Sebastian and Nadia Sabania had at ace time at the Ham and Petersham Tennis Club after they triumphed in their age categories in tournaments held by the club on Saturday, May 10.
The festivities started in the morning with competition, before Surrey Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) president Tony Scarlett officially opened the clubhouse, joined by colleagues from the association.
Jean-Pierre Guillonnet, senior club coach, said: "The club is very grateful to Surrey LTA for the moral and financial support they have been given."
Celebrations continued last weekend with a circus-style competition on Saturday, May 17, run by former British Davis Cup player Danny Sapsford, along with player and coach James Auckland.
All money will go to the Bright Ideas charity, which helps fund projects at grass roots, For more details, call Jean-Pierre Guillonnet on 07831 806232.
