Brewers lend a hand in tough times
More than 17,000 items donated to assorted charities
MILWAUKEE -- These days, Brewers Charities president Lynn Sprangers finds herself with one eye on baseball's trade- and free-agent markets and another on the stock market.Both could impact her task for 2009, as Sprangers looks to build on what she called the most successful year ever for the team's community involvement. "Yes, it has been a tough year, economically speaking," Sprangers said. "It's tough for people to give, and our fans are feeling the squeeze despite the fact we exceeded 3 million fans for the first time. "But that means we have to be very smart. Our community relations and our charitable efforts will have to undergo the same kind of analysis that every non-profit group is going through right now. We're all facing that same difficult road."

Common Ground
Students: Grade 9 & up
Common Ground Student Missions is here to help students know, and be known by, Jesus!

- Overnight Event Permission Form.
- Click here to view our Student Mission manual.
- Click here to view our Plan to Protect Policy.
We meet from 7:00-9:00 PM* each Thursday
*Doors open at 6:00 PM
General Elements of the Program
Games, sports, video games, worship music by the CG house band, talks, discussions, snacks, small groups*, videos, speeches, giving and lets not forget "kick the can."
*Small groups: Each student attends a small group which will consist of at least one adult leader meeting with the same group of students each week. Here we keep up to date with our students, announce upcoming events, discuss the theme of the night and pray together. Leaders are encouraged to sit and talk to students as they hang out before and/or after hours.
Section Youth Rallies
A combined youth service and time of fellowship with other youth groups in the London area. They consist of a typical youth service: worship, games, giving, fellowship, preaching and prayer time. The goal is to encourage our students and others across London that they are not alone.
Mission Trips, Retreats, Conventions and Camps
These trips have significant value in a student's life. We have seen exponential spiritual growth in students who take a whole weekend or week to focus on God and to be with their Christian friends. We believe these events are really important in their walk with Jesus and try to do each one of these events each year.
Summer Program
We switch from weekly meetings to two events and two discussion nights each month, from June to August. We join the Livewire students for events such as Christian camp services and our annual trip to Canada's Wonderland. This reduced schedule gives our leaders the opportunity to rest and be ready for their leadership commitment in the fall.

Wedding wear concerns
Q. I'm 15 years younger than my husband. We both work out and are fit. His son is getting married – afternoon wedding. The bride and I are very close. She said she doesn't care what I wear to the wedding. My concern is that I want to look elegant but not draw too much attention to myself from my attire. The ex-wife is much heavier than I am, and also 20 years older. I'm struggling finding the appropriate attire. A beaded suit is not me at all, yet I don't feel a black little dress is appropriate. I'm a very outgoing upbeat person — any advice on what I should wear?
-Formal and Fretting
A. You're fit and fabulous and there's no reason to look dowdy or play it safe and be a wallflower. Weddings are a girl's chance to dress up, heck, we just don't get enough opportunities during the week to pull on a gorgeous dress. And don't worry about drawing attention—all eyes will be on the bride, everyone else is just an afterthought when we all compare what we're wearing. So look good in a dress and heels. I scoured the stores and came up with options that are elegant and sophisticated without being daring. You can stand proud and know that you look good, but are not making a statement.

I watch enough British murder-mysteries to love the name 'Vicar's Vice'. I've also reviewed enough beers to appreciate its appearance: this raisin-coloured Old Ale is deep as winter is dark and its head is a chunky barrel-brown bulb that spreads and opens wide like a tulip in bloom.
There's enough roast and spent grinds flavour in the aroma that you'd think this was brewed next to the coffee maker. The nose also features notes of raisin, toasted chestnut and hazelnut, as well as alcohol esters stewing just beneath the surface that subtly hint at the beer's strength (8.1%). It's nice but the bouquet shies away the I harder I try to smell it.
The flavour has a vivid amount of purple fruit (ripe plums and figs in particular) and a sweet, roasted nuttiness that echoes the chestnut and hazelnut notes of the aroma. There's just enough bitter, ashy character to infer chocolate-covered raisins as well as an underlying sweetness that nods to dates and other dried fruits.
I doubt this beer can hold up as long as its brewer thought it fit too; while a measly one year is unlikely to spoil it, it seems a bit long for a medium-light bodied beer of such minor intricacy. Only three months from bottling it's already light on the ester-y nuances and thin on the malt; another nine aren't likely to unveil any additional complexity. Drink this old ale young.
Vicar's Vice is neither sinner nor saint - it's a very enjoyable old ale that offers a good look at the style but doesn't quite show the whole picture. I flipped and flopped a few times on the scores; I may liked it more than I've let on. Nothing world-class but unquestionably well-conceived and made, it is another solid offering from Amsterdam's 'adventure brews' series.

3.64/5 rDev -0.8%
(3.5) A: Dark brown with a thin creamy tan coloured head that's quite bubbly. Recedes quickly to a ring and leaves negligible lacing down the glass.
(3.5) S: Milk chocolate, caramel, plum, nuts, and vanilla. Enticing but quite a sweet and straightforward aroma with less spices and diversity than I was expecting for an old ale.
(3.75) T: Raisins, molasses, chocolate, dark fruits, vanilla, and caramel. Similar to the aroma with sweet flavours dominant (vanilla & caramel mostly). Nice full flavoured roasted malt qualities towards the back end including the dark fruits & molasses/chocolate. Alcohol is well hidden as others have pointed out.
(3.75) M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Sticky, creamy, and slick.
(3.5) D: This is good but lacked in terms of diversity for an old ale – both aroma and flavour wise. A bit steep price wise as well. I'd like to see their other rotating options that are on-tap at the brewhouse available in bottle form at the retail shop as others are much better than this (IMO) – maybe one day.

Purchased from LCBO, served well-chilled into inappropriate glassware while watching the AFC Championship Game. Oh well.
Appearance - Dark, hazelnut brown. Decadent 2+ fingers of tan head that coalesce, and maintain for a very long while. Beautiful rings of lacing left around the lass. Some slight reddish mahogany hues in the beer too, but rather opaque. A most impressive start.
Smell - Dark fruits, some peat and a mellowed dessert tray all ring bells with this brew. Some chocolate specifically in the nose as well. Fairly yummy, but not otherworldly.
Taste - The eartiness and peat flavors come through here a bit sharper than in the nose, the fruits are significantly less prevalent here. As the beer warms some, coffee and anise flavors come into play more, completely undetected on the nose.
Mouthfeel - Dry finish, medium carbonation. Booze is well hidden. Slightly thin on the mouthfeel.
Overall - A fine old ale, great for sipping while watching some playoff football. Probably won't repeat the purchase though as there are others I would prefer when accessible. Even still this one does not appear to be readily available so was glad to enjoy with good company.

3.93/5 rDev +7.1%
650 mL bottle from the LCBO; bottled Nov. 4 2013. Been holding onto this one for the better part of a month, waiting for a good time to crack it open - and my 600th beer tick on BA seems as good a time as any. Served slightly chilled and poured into a mug.
Pours an opaque cola brown with some crimson tinges under the light, topped with one finger of frothy, tan-coloured head. It wilts fairly rapidly, leaving behind a thin sheet of lacing and soon settling into a modest collar at the surface. Mild aroma without a lot of features to describe - toffee and molasses figure in prominently, in addition to toasted nuts, cocoa powder and raisins. Nothing bad here, it's just kind of mundane.
Pretty yummy stuff, and balanced nicely with no sign of the 8.1% abv. Toffee sweetness and roasted, bready malts form the bulk of the flavour, with accompanying notes of raisins and cherry. Toasted hazelnuts are also detectable, with some chocolate notes leading into a light, bittersweet finish that carries on into the aftertaste. Medium-bodied, perhaps leaning toward the heftier side, with a creamy, smooth, satisfying feel on the palate. Very drinkable for an 8%er.
Final Grade: 3.93, a B+. Vicar's Vice Olde Ale isn't a particularly complex affair, but it's an enjoyable one nonetheless. I'm not going to pretend I've had a lot of experience with old ales, but this is an easy-drinking, balanced, English-style strong ale that I would consider picking up again. This one had more of a stout/porter vibe than I tend to expect from this style, which is not necessarily a bad thing (especially if you're big on traditional dark ales). A little pricy, but worth a shot - it's not like quality old ales are easy to find in these parts.

Bottle: Poured a clear copper color ale with a medium size foamy head with light retention and almost no lacing. Aroma consists of unrefined grainy notes with some light sugar notes. Taste is also dominated by unrefined grainy notes with light residual sugars notes. Body is quite light with medium carbonation. The unrefined grainy notes are really not pleasant and kind ruins the effort here.

Bomber from the Ottawa LCBO for $9
Appearance - Brown colour with an average size frothy off-white coloured head. There is a low amount of carbonation showing and there is some decent lacing on the sides of the glass. The head lasted for close to 5 minutes before it began to dissipate.
Smell - Malts, caramel, roasted/toasted notes, chocolate
Taste & Mouth - There is an average amount of carbonation and I can taste caramel and malts mixed with light hops. There is also some roasted/toasted/burnt notes and a bit of chocolate.
Overall - Tastes more like a stout/porter than an Old Ale to me.. perhaps some age would help. Either way, a little boring and overpriced for what it is.

Big thank you to liamt07 for this. Cheers man!
Appearance. Pours a deep brown with almost a finger of off-white head that doesn't last long.
Smell. Sweet caramel malts and toffee, roasted nuts, plums, raisins, and brown sugar.
Taste. Sweet caramel malts and roasted nuts, molasses, some raisins and dark fruit, and a little tobacco.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with medium carbonation.
Overall. Good stuff. I wouldn't age this one like a bigger old ale, it's great right now.

Heres a good one, to keep hopes up. When your cured what will you do? Think about it... if one day bam... no diabetes. What would you do?
Views: 1068
I will run across the country with out packing any juice, gluco tabs or sugar and without reducing my insulin. I will also have sympathy for those who are not cured yet.
Yes!! I've thought about this sort of Forrest Gump-like excursion. It would be so much easier without diabetes!
I know I'd worry a lot less, and also wouldn't be ticking off a checklist in my head to make sure I have all my supplies with me before leaving the house ...
First I would throw away all my insulin and call all of my family and friends. Then I think I'd enjoy a nice drink without having to worry about the spikes and drops in blood sugar. Then as much as I hate to say this because it's so cliche I think I would have a pint of Ben and Jerry's ice cream. Oh then I would make sure to say a prayer and tell God how grateful I am :) Even if there's a 100% legit cure though I don't think I could ever throw away my bg meter. I would probably continue to keep checking my bg for a long time afterwards just to make sure I'm not dreaming :)
I would go to a nice park with my daughters play the whole day run around, without having to worry about going hypo then we would go out for ice cream! nothing major just the fact that I would be able to play with my girls and not have to worry about going low would be perfect :)
I agree. The pancakes would be great, but being able to just "be" without worrying about every little detail would be the best.
lol I agree the pancakes would be great :) but just being worry free would be the best feeling ever!
I'ld like to try some of that "mindless eating" the media thinks is such an issue. When I hear a report on this I always stop and wonder what it would be like to not think about what you are eating. It is hard to imagine the act of eating as a simple, unadulterated act that doesn't have about 5 other actions/thoughts/processes associated with it.
Wow, the ability to simply EAT.....and nothing else.
After reading all these posts, I decided what I would do to celebrate. Nothing. I have a decent diet right now, walk as well as I can, and stop counting carbs. Hey, I might even watch the food network!
I will enjoy being free of financial stress

Market finishes week up slightly as earnings offset by political events
Stocks finished the week fractionally higher than where they started as strong corporate earnings reports and better than expected economic data was weighed against concerns about geopolitical issues and negative M&A news. MACRO NEWS: A few ongoing geopolitical conflicts worried investors and weighed on shares. Russia unveiled sanctions against Western countries, banning the import of a wide range of food items from the U.S, the EU and a few allied countries in response to sanctions recently enacted against it from G7 nations... President Obama authorized the bombing of rebels in Iraq and Hamas and Israel failed to reach a permanent truce... An ISM services index, the U.S. trade deficit for June, and weekly jobless claims were all better than expected. Meanwhile, the increase in unit labor costs last quarter came in below the consensus outlook, perhaps easing fears that the Fed will need to raise interest rates sooner than expected. COMPANY NEWS: On the M&A front, two huge potential deals fell through as 21st Century Fox (FOX, FOXA) withdrew its offer to acquire Time Warner (TWX) and Sprint (S) reportedly decided to end its pursuit of a merger with peer T-Mobile (TMUS)... President Obama indicated that his administration would take unilateral steps in an effort to prevent companies from carrying out tax inversion acquisitions. Among the deals or possible transactions that involve inversion are Medtronic's (MDT) acquisition of Covidien (COV), Valeant's (VRX) proposed takeover of Allergan (AGN) and Mylan's (MYL) acquisition of Abbott's (ABT) developed markets branded generics pharmaceuticals business. Meanwhile, Walgreen's (WAG) stock tumbled after the U.S. company said it would not structure its takeover of European drugstore chain Alliance Boots as a tax inversion deal... 21st Century Fox, 3D printer maker Stratasys (SSYS), chip maker NVIDIA (NVDA), brewer Molson Coors (TAP), and luxury accessories maker Coach (COH) all rose following their earnings reports. Conversely, Target (TGT), luxury accessories maker Michael Kors (KORS) and Internet coupon provider Groupon (GRPN) fell following their results or guidance... Gannett (GCI) struck a deal to acquire the remaining 73% interest in Classified Ventures, whose primary asset is the online car shopping website Cars.com, for $1.8B from the other partners in the venture, which include McClatchy (MNI), Tribune Media (TRBAA), Graham Holdings (GHC) and A. H. Belo (AHC). Gannett also announced plans to spin-off its Publishing business, which includes USA Today, through a tax-free distribution to shareholders... McDonald's (MCD) stock was little changed after the company reported that its comparable store sales fell 2.5% in July, which was significantly worse than expected. Food quality issues weighed on the fast food company's sales in Asia and as a result of the China supplier issue, the company warned its previously issued global comparable sales forecast for 2014 is now at risk. INDEXES: The Dow finished the week up 0.35% to 16,553.93, the S&P 500 rose 0.32% to 1,931.59, and the Nasdaq gained 0.41% to 4,370.90.

Cow rescued from rural McMinnville pool
Dec 27, 2013 | 3 Comments
News-Register Staff
A cow was rescued Friday morning from an in-ground swimming pool west of McMinnville.
McMinnville firefighters responded to the call at 13104 N.W. Willis Road.
"It appeared the cow got loose and walked through a gate and fell in the pool," Fire Chief Rich Leipfert said. "It remained in the shallow end but could not get out."
Firefighters and the owner, Jeffrey Dyck, used a ramp, ropes and straps to drag, lift and pull the cow from the pool, according to Leipfert.
"After about five minutes on the ground, it got up and walked to the barn," he said.

I'm glad the Fire Department helped but it is not their job. I would rather have them at the station ready to respond on medical / fire calls than to save a cow.
The human kindness was lost by the owners, they left two gates open for the cow to get into the pool. They then, should have called Neighbors and Friends to help with the rescue. It's not the Fire Departments job...

Agnosticism & Agnostics: What Do Agnostics Believe? What's Agnosticism
- Offsite Agnostic (10)
- Agnosticism Polls (7)
- Agnostic Dictionary (13)
- Types of Agnosticism (4)
- Criticisms of Agnosticism (4)
- History of Agnosticism (4)
Agnosticism for Beginners - Basic Facts About Agnosticism & Agnostics
Collected here are all the most basic facts and information about agnosticism and agnostics. It will make it easier for beginners and even agnostics themselves to better understand what agnosticism is, what agnosticism is not, this history of agnosticism, the philosophical foundations of agnosticism, and what being an agnostic means.
Standard Dictionary Definitions of Agnosticism
To understand the concept of agnosticism, it can be helpful to learn a bit more about its history. It has been used in a variety of ways, not all of which are entirely compatible. They may be similar, but there enough differences that there can be some confusion.
Overview of the Definition of Agnosticism
The term agnosticism is used primarily for a single issue: do any gods exist or not? Those who disclaim knowledge of gods or even that such knowledge is possible are labeled agnostics. There are many misconceptions about agnosticism, agnostics, and the reasons why anyone would adopt agnosticism in the first place. This is unfortunate, because...
Short Explanation of the Agnostic Position
So, what is the definition of agnosticism? Some imagine that agnosticism represents an alternative to atheism, but those people have typically bought into the mistaken notion of the single, narrow definition of atheism. Strictly speaking, agnosticism is about knowledge, and knowledge is a related but separate issue from belief, the domain of...
Atheism vs. Agnosticism: What's the Difference?
Many people who adopt the label of agnostic reject the label of atheist - there is a common perception that agnosticism is a more "reasonable" position while atheism is more "dogmatic," ultimately indistinguishable from theism except in the details. Is this a valid position to take?
Agnosticism & Philosophy
Agnosticism is not itself a philosophy, but a relevant and respectable agnosticism depends on philosophical principles: one epistemological and one ethical. When this happens, it means that a person's agnosticism is not just philosophical, but well-considered and reasonable.
Agnosticism & Religion
Agnosticism is compatible with religion and is sometimes even an integral part of religions. Agnosticism need not stand outside of religion or religious systems, either as a disinterested observer or as an active critic.
Atheist vs. Agnostic - What's the Difference Between an Atheist and an Agnostic?
The difference between being an atheist and being an agnostic is clear. Atheists don't believe in any gods. Agnostics doesn't know if any gods exist or not. These can be the exact same people, but need not be.

The family of a slain Kansas City, KS, teenager held a vigil and spoke out about the death of their son Thursday night.
Miguel Garcia, 14, was shot and killed last Saturday afternoon and the family wants to know why.
The vigil was held to remember an eighth-grade boy whose life was cut short.
"He was a very energetic kid, he made sure every time we came home to see him he gave us a big giant hug," Miguel's cousin Tisha Marta said.
Miguel was the youngest of four and just 14 years old when someone gunned him down at the corner of 14th Street and Armstrong Avenue in Kansas City, KS. His family and friends say he deserved better.
"I don't think he deserved it because he's like 14. What harm could he do to anybody? It's just sad that he's so young and he loses his life," his friend Jonathan Orona said.
Miguel lived just down the street from where he was shot. Police said two men in a black Ford Explorer drove up and yelled while Miguel and a friend were walking. Then, police said, the Explorer drove around the block, returned and opened fire.
Police continue to look for suspects in the case, but the family just wants the violence to stop.
"Violence is horrible and family is everything. We want this to show that we don't want any of the violence to continue - that we want love and joy to come out of this, not hate," Marta said.
If anybody would like to help the Garcia family with funeral expenses, they can contact Brotherhood Bank and Trust, located at 756 Minnesota Ave. in Kansas City, KS. The bank's phone number is 913-321-4242.

News: Jim Jones On Granting Kanye West Diplomatic Immunity, "It Wasn't Really A Life-Or-Death Situation"
Saturday, Dec 18, 2010 12:01PM
Diplomats' Jim Jones has opened up about getting involved on the G.O.O.D. Music-meets-Dipset "Christmas In Harlem" collaboration and why Kanye West is no longer on Cam'ron's naughty list this holiday season.
According to Jimmy, Cam actually reached out to him for his verse on the record.
"I didn't know nothing about it, I'm just getting hip to that right now but it's simple though," Jim Jones said about the collaboration coming together. "Sh*t, if I was Kanye I would've called us too. It don't make sense if they from Chicago, they would've made 'Christmas in Chicago' then right? Cam called me, sent me the beat, I did my part, sent it back to Cam and he took care of the rest of the business...I couldn't tell you what that [beef] was about but I know Cam and [Kanye's manager] Don C are like best friends. We've actually known Kanye and them for over 10 years from some of our earlier shows when we first got into the music industry so we have a great rapport with them more than anything else. I don't think people took what we did so serious more than it was [just the] art of the music that we do. I guess Cam had something on his mind but it wasn't really a life-or-death situation. And I know Kanye's a very smart person, he's got a great spirit, so it's great that he chose to look past anything that was going on. I appreciate it." (MTV)
G.O.O.D. Music's Big Sean recently gave his reaction to Dipset and Yeezy coming back to terms for the sake of music.
"Yeah man, the rap game is too small to have beef," Sean said when asked about Kanye and Dipset. "We are grown a** men, all money is green, so you might as well just put what ever you got to the side if it's not that serious. You know, unless it's just something that requires that much attention. The beef that was there was nothing. It's all fam, it's all love." (The Source)
Following the song's leak earlier this week, producer Hit-Boy revealed how "Christmas In Harlem" reached Kanye West.
"My boy Dala Roc hooked me up with Kanye's cousin, Ricky," Hit-Boy said in an interview. "This was around the time when he started working on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. I just kept sending him beats to try and get one on there. Then, on the night of Kanye's New York release party, Ricky called saying Kanye wanted to use one of my beats for a Christmas song...There are some Marvin Gaye interpolations in there and it has that old-school feel to it." (VIBE)
Earlier this fall, Cam went after Ye on his "Runaway" freestyle and accused him of dissing former Roc-A-Fella co-founder Dame Dash.
Jim Jones and Cam'ron leaked a new song today (September 15) dissing Kanye West over the instrumental to "Runaway," a song Ye premiered this past Sunday at the MTV Video Music Awards. On the track Cam spits, "Kanye you a sucka n*gga/Dissed Dame [Dash], so my attitude is f*ck the n*gga/Stuck to Jigga. How you gon' live with that? Took the beat, now come get it back." (XXL Mag)

But several weeks ago, I had the pleasure of enjoying a dégustation, or tasting, at Masa's, a Michelin-starred restaurant known for its elevation of California-French cuisine. Not only were chef Gregory Short's creations exquisite, but the wine pairings were indelible and the service exceptional. To get a glimpse of the dinner, read on. Photography by Michelle Walker Purée of California Cepe Mushroom Soup What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 One of my favorite savory dishes was a porcini mushroom soup that was poured tableside. It was frothy and weightless, and topped with a quenelle of crème fraîche and garnished with fried shallots. Photography by Michelle Walker 1 / 8 Roasted Heirloom Beets What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I wasn't smart enough to order the roasted heirloom beets myself, but I did have the sense to try some off my dining companion's plate. They arrived in a spectrum of colors, from cream to watermelon to Bordeaux, artfully arranged atop a smear of Laura Chenel goat cheese, then topped with beet greens and a drizzle of ink-red beet vinaigrette. Photography by Michelle Walker 2 / 8 Poached Artisan Foie Gras What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Unctuous, melt-in-your-mouth foie gras, perched on a bed of green lentils, a vinegar reduction, and squab consommé, was the most lavish course I enjoyed all night. Floral-scented royal blenheim apricots provided a sweet juxtaposition. Photography by Michelle Walker 3 / 8 Sautéed Filet of New Zealand Tai Snapper What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Delicate tai snapper was sautéed until its skin was crisp but its flesh was still supple and tender. Photography by Michelle Walker 4 / 8 Filet Mignon of Veal What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Pan-seared filet mignon was served with a bordelaise, a classic Bordeaux sauce made with red wine, demi-glace, shallots, and bone marrow. Photography by Michelle Walker 6 / 8 Sacher Torte What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I'm not known for my sweet tooth, so I wasn't prepared when the dessert portion of the dinner swept me off of my feet. Pastry whiz John McKee brought out a deconstructed version of a Viennese sachertorte. The chocolate-buttermilk cake, apricot marmalade, and honey-chocolate ganache were served as separate components. Photography by Michelle Walker 6 / 8 Laura Chenel's Chevre Cheesecake What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I'd never had a cheesecake made from goat cheese, but the pairing proved to be a cerebral one. The sweet, licorice-tinged biscotti was an ideal foil to the ultrasmooth and slightly savory cake. Photography by Michelle Walker 7 / 8 Strawberry Vacherin What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This airy meringue dessert made a symphony of sounds as I cracked into it with my fork. It was accompanied by macerated strawberries, sabayon, brown sugar streusel, and nectarine sorbet, and was indeed a very sweet ending to an unforgettable meal.

PEORIA, Ill. -- According to police, the drive by shooting of a Peoria High School student Tuesday afternoon, near the intersection of Peoria Street and East Nebraska, was not a random act.
"There is a history between these two individuals, so I do believe there is a motive behind it," said Captain Mike Scally of the peoria Police Department. "Exactly what the motive is, if its gang-related or just a personal issue, I can't identify that yet."
18 year-old Quantrey King has been arrested and charged by police with aggravated discharge of a firearm and aggravated battery with a firearm.
Captain Scally says cooperation from witnesses and from the victim led to the quick apprehension of the suspect only a few hours after the shooting took place.
King was not the driver of the vehicle he was riding in.
"Officers responded to the area where they knew the shooter's family lived and they located the vehicle that was involved," Scally said. "They saw him and also the person who had been driving the car in the car with another person, so the driver of the vehicle has also been located. That person has not been charged."
The shooting happened only a few blocks from Peoria High School in the middle of the afternoon.
According to District 150 spokesperson Chris Coplan, the school district has responded by increasing security at the school in order to "ensure the safety of our students during school hours."
Coplan says the district will work with police as they continue their investigation and take any further safety precautions that are deemed necessary.

Town Square
The Habit Hamburger Review
Original post made by Rick on Mar 24, 2012
center on the corner of Hopyard and Bernal. I have heard a lot of hype so I decided to try it out. Here is my review:
When I arrived at 11:30 am on Saturday, it was literally being overrun by the Pleasantonians. The line was nearly out the door, people were snagging tables before they ordered, and the kitchen was franticly pumping out burgers but it wasn't fast enough. The police even showed up to restore order (more about that later).
We waited patiently (around 8 minutes) till we ordered. Each of us had the #1 which is a standard hamburger, fries and drink combo. It was around 15 bucks for both of us. They gave us a buzzer and we found a table (actually a good friend saw us in line and saved it for us). We waited around 8 minutes and watched the char-grill spew flames while the customers jockeyed for position. It was loud but the booths were really nice with excellent back support.
We retrieved our burgers and I have to say, it was very good. The burger was very large and tasty. I had the sweet potato fries and my daughter ordered the french fries. As crazy as it was in there, an employee asked if she could refill our cups. That was nice. But then, I noticed a disturbance near the rear door.
An large angry man was dressing down the manager The manager asked the man to please go outside. The manager appeared to be apologizing but the man was still giving him an earful. Maybe he didn't get his order fast enough? Who knows?
We finished up and walked out and noticed two cop cars pull up and bee-line to the angry customer sitting outside. He had a sheepish look on his face while he was being interrogated by another cop. They surrounded him. Since the beginning of time, scarce resources (in these case hamburgers) always causes conflict.
So what's the bottom line on The Habit? I really liked it. My only suggestion is that you go during off peak hours because the place can get really crowded. In and Out burger is still the best value in town, but if you want to pay a little more and get a bigger burger, I highly recommend The Habit.
on Mar 24, 2012 at 9:10 pm
I went there a few weeks ago and it also was packed. I wasn't a fan of their burgers. They were very thin and chared(yes..I know they are called CHAR-burgers there. I am not sure if you can request them not as done. We ordered the onion rings which were VERY good and I am interested in trying their milkshakes. Overall, the price was good but the burgers were anything to write home about (just to respond to an online post)=)
I am excited to see what other shops they put in!
on Mar 25, 2012 at 8:42 am
I went to the one in Walnut Creek last July. I found them just okay as far as burgers go. Lots of options which is nice, however like the last poster stated they were thin and cooked well done. For the price it an okay place...no reason for lines out the door. I will say that if you are thinking of going to Five Guys this is a much better option.
on Mar 25, 2012 at 10:00 am
Went there last night about 6:30 and they were busy. Like the idea of the buzzer, no one is shouting a number which you may not hear. Our burgers were fine, loved the onion rings. I noticed that they don't use a lot of salt on anything. That is up to you. If you want more spice you can add peppers. They have a pepper bar. Our burgers were not over cooked and we got them in a reasonable amount of time. I would go back.

Most of my research is on belief formation, influence and decision-making under uncertainty. In general I am interested in seeking to understand why people make decisions that appear to be based on biased or uninformed beliefs. I use both standard (rational belief updating) and behavioral approaches, and both formal game theoretic models and empirical analysis. The applications I have focused on are news media and sports. My teaching interests are game theory, behavioral economics, microeconomic theory and probability theory/statistics.

Media event set for September 9, launch likely ~10 days later.
Apple Reveals 2012 Final Cut Pro X Update with Multichannel Audio Editing, RED Support and More
Apple met with video consultant and trainer Larry Jordan on the eve of the 2012 NAB show and shared some upcoming plans for Final Cut Pro X. The following features are expected in Final Cut Pro X in 2012:
- Multichannel Audio Editing ToolsJordan goes into some light details about some of the new features. FCP X will be able to read MXF files directly without the need to convert to QuickTime. The same can be said for RED camera support whose files will be able to be edited natively. Finally, Apple explains that Dual Viewers is analogous to Source and Record monitors and that they will try to do it better than has been implemented in the previously.
- Dual Viewers
- MXF Plug-in Support
- RED camera support
While those are the only features officially announced, Apple indicated that they wouldn't be the only new features coming this year. Jordan also asked for hints about upcoming hardware, but Apple didn't provide any information.
The National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) conference kicks off this week in Las Vegas. Apple has not held a major presence at the show in recent years, but did use the venue last year to introduce Final Cut Pro X. Apple again appears to have a presence at the show and is at least meeting with some prominent figures. The NAB runs through April 19th.
Top Rated Comments(View all)
You have to hand it to them, most of the major complaints about the initial release of the software, such as lack of broadcast monitoring, multicam, no XML capabilities and now viewer have all been rectified in a short time. Nice one Apple. And they're actually being a bit more public about the updates which is something they never usually do.
Now if only they released a fantastic Mac Pro to go with it, professionals like myself might finally shutup about Apple abandoning the Pro community.
Though I'm not a video editor, I have used Final Cut 7 and I find the design quite dated.
This comment makes no sense for multiple reasons.
A quad-core MacBook Pro or iMac is more than enough power for anything FCPX can throw at it.
Mac Pros aren't needed anymore.
No offense intended, but your very bold declaration is incorrect.
The only 'mistake' was perhaps in killing FCS3 so fast.
That's really what i meant. If they had released FCPX as 'A Preview of The Next Generation of Video Editing', and kept FCS3 available, then i'm sure the reaction would not have been so bad. But they removed all traces of FCS3, said FCPX was the replacement, pure and simple and that was it. A marketing failure really more than anything else.
Anyways, lets not get into that again :D
Mac Pros aren't needed anymore.
High end technology will always be needed. Professionals are paid to be fast. In a time when deadlines are getting shorter, updated Mac Pros are more than needed.
A quad-core MacBook Pro or iMac is more than enough power for anything FCPX can throw at it.
Mac Pros aren't needed anymore.
Say wha?! As an owner of a 15" Quad Core MacBook Pro and a 12-Core Mac Pro, there is NO WAY I can do on the MacBook Pro's what I can on my Mac Pro, especially with time (which is crucial in film) and HD rendering. No way. I tried and my notebooks fans went into high gear, and I aged 50 years. :p
But is it really needed. Aside from the ability to swap drives, does one really need a Pro.
Yes. I feel like some of us are constantly having to assert this need around here.
Different people need different things. For many of us, having a Mac Pro isn't merely an exercise in vanity or excess or luxury. There are many people (pros and semi-pros and even non-pros) that NEED a Mac Pro (or expandable desktop design) for their computing work. I completely 100% understand that this isn't the case for everyone ("won't current iMacs with Thunderbolt work?", yada yada...), or even for most people. Not everyone needs a Mac Pro. But I DO. And there are many others like me.
I need (and do not merely prefer) multiple PCI slots. I need many processing threads. I need a non-reflecting screen (and choice in my monitors/components to begin with). I need multiple internal storage drives, plus external storage (and other) expansion capabilities. I need silence and cooling and optical drives and replaceable parts and tons of i/o ports/options. The computer is only part of my studio setup (my work is in music). For me, switching to a non-Mac Pro (say, an iMac) would also mean having to change all my other hardware and gear.
So yes, "one" (this one) does really need a Mac Pro. Depending on specifications and options, I *might* be able to go with a suitable Mac Pro replacement (another tower or headless semi-tower solution), but an iMac will not get it done for me.
I don't mean this post to sound like a rant- but if we're going to continue doing these show of hands inquiries as to who actually needs a mac pro, my hand is (and continues to be) fully raised.
A quad-core MacBook Pro or iMac is more than enough power for anything FCPX can throw at it.
Mac Pros aren't needed anymore.
The only totally non-arrogant non-ignorant way to make your point would have been to say "Mac Pros aren't needed BY EVERYONE anymore."
I assure you, Mac Pros are still needed. But thanks for telling everyone else here what I (and many others) need.

San Dimas Stage Race Recap
March 25, 2013
The first stage of the San Dimas Stage Race started off well for the 5-hour ENERGY® presented by Kenda Racing Team. It was the first official race, as well as the first time trial of the year for many of the riders. The team was psyched to put on their new Catlike TT helmets despite it being an uphill course. Nate English held the lead with the best time for much of the day but finished in 4th place. Mancebo, after just flying in from Spain and feeling "so-so", finished in 7th followed by Max Jenkins in 9th and David Williams in 20th.
The following days sunny circuit race brought relief to the riders as they remembered the cold and rainy race of 2012. Looking back this might be the race they want to forget as the entire team had a string of bad luck. Early on, Nate English and Shawn Milne crashed while Jim Stemper waited for his teammates and they never returned to the peloton. A little later Bobby Sweeting was involved with a crash at the start/finish line that took out the race leader and former team mate Phillip Gaimon who had to be air lifted to a local hospital. In the last lap Mancebo suffered a misfortune which didn't allow him to finish with the main group. Luckily, despite the problems of the day no one is seriously injured and at least the bikes are ready to battle tomorrow.
The final day of the San Dimas Stage Race was a criterium. The fans turned out in full support to cheer on their favorite teams and 5-hour ENERGY® presented by Kenda received a lot of attention. The fast start came as no surprise as a break went up the road but team Jamis, who had the leader's jersey, kept them in check for most of the distance at ten seconds. In the final laps Paco Mancebo led our G.C. rider, Max Jenkins, right to the front to keep him protected and safe to secure his 5th place overall. The team was down to only 4 riders, because of the mishaps from stage 2, and they all comfortably finished in the field to finish the race on a high note. We will stay in California this week as we prepare for the first NRC race of the year in Redlands, Ca.

Working with local partners—including the Father Afif Osseirane Foundation, St. Joseph University's Professional Center for Mediation and individual lawyers—the Northern Lebanon Public Service Center (NLPSC) provides legal assistance and mediation services to indigent and marginalized residents, such as stateless persons, juvenile defendants, at-risk youth and refugees. Since its opening in January 2010, the center, which the ABA Rule of Law Initiative helped establish, has handled more than 150 cases and conducted extensive outreach to non-governmental organizations and community groups, helping to raise awareness about the use of mediation in resolving disputes. It has also helped build the capacity of local law students and young lawyers through trainings and internships.
Thanks to a partnership between the center and the Father Afif Osseirane Foundation, judges are now frequently referring juvenile offenders who lack representation to the NLPSC. Additionally, center lawyers have been successful in obtaining alternative sentencing for juvenile offenders in more than 60% of the cases they handle. The center is also working with independent lawyers to assist Palestinian refugees and unregistered persons; it currently has more than 50 such cases.
By enabling lawyers and social service providers in northern Lebanon to more effectively represent disenfranchised communities, the program increases access to justice and promotes peaceful resolution of disputes through formal channels. The program also seeks to build and sustain such capacity in northern Lebanon
Since February 2008, the ABA Rule of Law Initiative has provided assistance to the Lebanese National Network for the Right of Access to Information to develop and advocate for legislation on access to information and whistleblower protection. The network seeks to gather consensus from within governmental and non-governmental sectors, private industry and the legal community, as well as boost public awareness and support for these public information initiatives.
The Network is composed of 17 governmental and non-governmental institutions and organizations committed to enhancing transparency and good governance. The Network's legal working group has, with assistance from international experts, drafted two laws—one on access to information (submitted to Parliament in April 2009) and a second on whistleblower protection (submitted to Parliament on June 24 2010). The Network's advocacy group has developed a range of programs and materials to enhance awareness about the purpose, content and value of the laws. Activities include a youth-led program to lobby parliamentarians, a Network website, training of media and civil servants, and a set of manuals to enhance understanding and implementation of the two laws.
In 2007 the ABA Rule of Law Initiative (ABA ROLI) supported the establishment of Lebanon's first human rights clinical legal education program at the Faculty of Law at La Sagesse University in Beirut. The program is offered as a mandatory course to final year law students and comprises a semester of coursework in national and international human rights law and practical legal skills, along with a semester of clinical work administered through student externships at Lebanese and international NGOs.
Over a two-year period, ABA ROLI worked closely with La Sagesse University faculty on curriculum development and course implementation, while building capacity both within La Sagesse University and Lebanese civil society to continue the clinical program beyond ABA ROLI's technical support. Since the end of the ABA ROLI program in December 2008 and as a testament to its success, the Faculty of Law at La Sagesse has continued to offer the human rights clinic.
Participating Lebanese students have increased their substantive knowledge of international human rights standards and the associated Lebanese legal framework allowing them to be better equipped to represent clients. Students' advocacy skills improved through both practical skills coursework and their work with international and national organizations to monitor state compliance with human rights standards and to develop recommendations for law reform. Clinic students also provided training to hundreds of Lebanese youth on their legal rights and the rights of others. Above all, the clinical program has reached its goal of enhancing access to justice for Lebanon's most vulnerable groups, including juveniles, migrant workers, and women. With ABA ROLI support, La Sagesse University faculty and students have also presented their work to law schools and organizations, both within Lebanon and across the Arab region, with several law faculties having shown great interest in establishing similar programs.

China's Toy Shoppers: Gift Shopping in China
According to HKTDC's report "China's Toy Shoppers: A Purchasing Behaviour Survey", only 604 of the surveyed parents (38%) point out that they have bought toys as gift in the past year. However, the difference in proportions among cities is great. For instance, only 22% of the parents in Shanghai have purchased toys as gift, but 61% in Chengdu.

Incumbent Mah wins Board of Education seat
Original post made on Nov 6, 2008
Read the full story here Web Link posted Thursday, November 6, 2008, 1:29 PM
on Nov 6, 2008 at 4:24 pm
She( Ms Mah) said she will "advocate on behalf of our schools in Sacramento."
Before she does that, I sure would want to know what the issues are. And I would sure like her to get our opinions on these issues.
From the experience that Palo Alto has had with Mah- and that is all we can go on, we saw her advocate for only about 2% of our student population over and over again, to the point where she got in the way of the board dealing with other important issues. Many members of that community had very different opinions on what she was presenting to the P.A. school board. I would like to know how often will she go to Sacramento? And who pays for these trips? Do her trips come out of the 285 million dollars that this board oversees?
I would be much more comfortable with the newly elected president of this board: Joe di Salvo going and advocating on our behalf.
on Nov 6, 2008 at 6:44 pm
I would love to see a breakdown of her win, numerically by city. I feel that there were a large number of Palo Alto voters who voted against her. She appears to be popular in Palo Alto by those involved in language immersion programs and the many other residents who feel that language immersion for the lucky few is not the way to teach language when the rest get nothing until 7th grade. Those who are more interested in equity in language education (and equity in education across the board) are not proMah.
on Nov 7, 2008 at 8:29 am
PA Resident,
I agree with you. But I think that we already know that many P.A. voters voted against her. And the other cities are not yet aware of her history and how her actions splintered our community. Many people who are for languages, even for immersion programs - were shocked that after MI was voted out, Mah threatened the board with her letter that stated that if they put in MI, she will not petition for a charter school. She has been on this county board for more than one year- we have heard nothing in all this time of what they do.Many of us know that she does not represent us.

FGCU Looks to Extend CCSA Winning Streak against Radford
FORT MYERS, Fla. – The FGCU women's swimming and diving team looks to extend its 20-meet Coastal Collegiate Swimming Association (CCSA) conference winning streak this Monday when it hosts Radford in a dual meet at the FGCU Aquatics Center at 3 p.m.
Since joining the CCSA in 2007, the Eagles are 22-1 in conference action with its only loss coming at the hands of Georgia Southern back on Jan. 19, 2008.
The Green and Blue were last in action Saturday when they defeated CCSA opponents Georgia Southern (243-56), Liberty (214-79) and the University of North Dakota (236-63), who compete in the Western Athletic Conference.
The Eagles are 5-2 this season with the other two wins coming against ACC opponents Miami and Georgia Tech.
FGCU is ranked No. 10 in the second edition of the CSCAA/CollegeSwimming.com Mid-Major Division I Swimming Poll and is the only team in the CCSA ranked in the Top 25. The Eagles were ranked No. 8 in the first edition of the poll.
All-time, the Green and Blue are a perfect 4-0 against Radford. The Highlanders come into Monday with a 4-5 dual meet record, with wins coming against North Carolina A&T, UNC Asheville, Brenau University and South Georgia State. Last time out, Radford defeated South Georgia State, 172-46, and lost to North Florida, 180-61, in a tri-meet in Jacksonville, Fla. last Saturday.
In the quad-meet last Saturday, the Eagles picked up 10 first-place victories, including two new pool records in the 200-yard medley relay and 200-yard freestyle relay events. The team of sophomore Emma Svensson (Upsala, Sweden/Celsiusskolan), and seniors Danielle Beaubrun (Vieux Fort, St. Lucia/Bolles School), Shannon Blizzard (Jacksonville, Fla./Stanton College Prep) and Megan Wolfe (Sebring, Fla./Sebring HS/Daytona State College) finished with a time of 1:43.77 and won the 200-yard medley relay event.
In the 200-yard freestyle relay, the team of Svennson, Wolfe, senior Eva Lehtonen (Rochester Hills, Mich./Rochester Adams HS/Florida) and freshman Jennifer Morgan (Edmonton, Alberta/Harry Ainlay) set a new pool record with a time of 1:34.85.
Results and recap will be available at www.FGCUATHLETICS.com at the conclusion on the event. Fans can also get updates from the team through twitter @FGCU_WSwim.

Listen to #LauraWelsh 's new powerful song #BreakThe Fall
We had a huge crush on Laura Welsh when she posted "Cold Front" on soundcloud in summer 2013.Eversince, we have been following the most "woah-oh-oh"-ing apt songstress to ever exist ardently. Her music was heard in episodes of tv hits Masters Of Sex, Grey's Anatomy, ( Cold Front) and Mistresses.She has announced that the debut album "Self Control" is due out end 2014 on Island Records.Confirming the Guardian's assertion that "she has got 'big in 2014' written all over her," "Break The Fall", a new confessional song and accompaigning black and white video was released last week , showing her great potential in becoming a maverick pop force. "My temper is always on the loose, I want to love you, but I'm just too cynical", she sings.The quiet and vulnerable quality of her music is gone here. Her poignant voice is front-and-center and is as powerful and prominent as we've ever seen her, in a song that is a few bassline chords away from being a James Bond theme. Adele who?
She has previously collaborated with Rhye's Robin Hannibal (on "Cold Front"), Dev Hynes from Blood Orange, and John Legend amongst others. Recently Laura co-wrote and loaned her killer vocals to UK dance/ electronic production duo Gorgon City in the sun-kissed dance serenade "Here For You".Watch the video of "Break the Fall" and listen to *Here For You" below.

It's King Records month—as if we need a reason to pull out our Bull Moose Jackson vinyl and blare. But 70 years ago, hometown hero Syd Nathan got it into his craw to start up a record label. He peered beyond his legendary coke bottle glasses, and viewed the future: of country, r&b and beyond. Syd Nathan invented a better way to make records, and gave the world James Brown, "Train Kept A Rollin," and oodles more. There will be art exhibitions, historical displays, readings and concerts of King music, and there will be aficionados of great music played by blacks and whites together at a time they said it wasn't supposed to happen. There will be the blare. Let this be the first of an annual celebration. Because it was good to be the King.

The anesthesiologist administers your anesthesia and maintains responsibility for your vital functions during the procedure and recovery period. He or she is focused on pain management and patient safety, and is involved in all three stages of surgery: preoperative, operative, and postoperative. There are several types of anesthesia that may be used depending on many factors, including the type of procedure, the patient's medical history and patient preference. At Advocate Lutheran General Hospital, an anesthesiologist will review your history and test results before your surgery. He or she will make a preoperative visit with you and your family before you enter the operating room and manage pain in the initial postoperative period.
From the time you enter our facility, until you leave, you will be under the care of a team of specialty-trained registered nurses.
The preoperative nurse will be responsible for getting you prepared for your procedure, monitoring your vital signs and starting your intravenous line. While in the operating room, the nursing team members have specific functions including assisting the surgeon with the surgical procedure and instrument preparation.
There may also be a certified nurse anesthetist who works closely with the anesthesiologist. The nurse anesthetist has advanced education and clinical practice experience in anesthesiology.
Family members present in the waiting room will be updated periodically by the nurse liaison, from 8 am – 8:00 pm, who will have real-time information about progress of the procedure.
Post-operatively, there is a PACU nurse (post-anesthesia care unit), monitoring your progress in awakening from anesthesia and providing you with pain management.
Finally, you will end the process in the care of a postoperative nurse either in the outpatient recovery area, or in your inpatient hospital room if admitted for an overnight stay.
Other Staff
