Eyelet Pencil Skirt 3 3
Pretty spring/summer basic with a twist The pink color is much more vibrant in person, but it fits well and flatters. It will be worn again and again and won't be difficult to match with tops I already have. May 14, 2014
Simple but dressy I wore the eyelet skirt and featured sweater to my daughter's graduation for her master's degree. It was comfortable as well as figure flattering for someone in their mid-fifties. I received multiple comments from family members as well as strangers. Affordable skirt and a lovely addition to anyones wardrobe. May 12, 2014
two sizes too small The skirt is great on the model, but is not as advertised. I ordered two of them...coral and navy. I ordered a size up so I could pull it down to add length...I'm 5'11", 155 lbs. The skirt barely zipped. It felt like a size 6. Also the lining is too tight in the skirt and it is poor sewn causing the hem to perforate. And if that's not enough, the quality of the zipper is poor causing it to stick. Buyer beware...I sure hope Garnet hill does not charge me shipping to send these back! May 2, 2014

In desperation i've turned to this board for help with a really esoteric problem ....
A once-working SIP configuration now fails to make an outgoing 'net call' for destination numbers longer than 8-digits. Numbers of 8-digits or less work perfectly.
Any attempt to call numbers greater then 8-digits in length, whether from the contacts list or manually entered, just causes the dialer to hang forever. There is no sign of life at the sip server and nothing makes it into the E52 error log.
This wasn't always the case and i can only put the situation down to an installation (and now subsequent removal) of Skype. I wonder has skype attempted to hijack the standard 'net call' feature and then broken it?
Even in the advanced SIP settings i can find nothing to adjust the outgoing number pattern, length or format. Likewise, i've searched in vain to find anyone with a similar problem.
Any ideas? Where do i turn next to report a possible bug - either in the S60 SIP software or, possibly Skype.

University of Missouri-Kansas City students involved in the JumpStart program gathered Saturday for the annual food drive for Harvesters.
"This year we put down a lot more bags and we are hoping to feed a lot more families," said Aigner Carr, a JumpStart volunteer coordinator.
This is the eighth time JumpStart has dropped empty bags in front of Brookside homes, hoping neighbors will fill them up. JumpStart takes all the food straight to Harvesters.
"There's so many children that go hungry. It's a problem. It's really important that we make an impact and feed these children," Carr said.
This year it might be even more important. On Friday, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program - or SNAP - benefits decreased. A family of four will receive $36 less than they did last month.
"That means that the average benefit per meal per person is reduced from about $1.50 to $1.40. If you think about that, $1.40 per meal per person is not very much," said Ellen Feldhausen with Harvesters food bank.
Feldhausen said that likely means those families will rely even more on the food pantries and kitchens that Harvesters stocks.
"The economy has not improved for the low-income families we are serving. Many families needing help are working families, someone has a job or one or two jobs. At some point during the month they need assistance. We're seeing an awful lot of that," she said.
JumpStart volunteer Grace Rector said she's helping because she can.
"It's nice to be able to give. I've been blessed enough to have food on the table, it would be nice to give to people who aren't able to have that," she said.
Volunteers delivered nearly 500 pounds of food to Harvesters and that provides 985 meals.

A woman received a note when she picked up her 3-year-old child from nursery school: "Your son is immature for his age."
The mother sent a note with the boy the next week, "If you can't be immature at 3, when can you be?"
In childhood, we remember the child who shouted, "I was safe at first! I'm taking my ball and bat and going home!" Most of us have learned to leave childish, immature behavior behind as we aged. Some, however, cherish their immaturity too much to discard it.
Sometimes it is difficult to know when to fight. It is even more difficult to be a good loser when the fight is lost. Who has not seen grown adults disgrace themselves with temper tantrums, insidious tactics or child-like spite? It is disheartening to see this same scenario in Washington, D.C. We see it all too frequently.
Remember when the Democrats stalled to prevent voting on George W. Bush's judicial nominees in 2005? They knew that if a vote was taken, they could not block the appointments. I remember thinking how unethical and infantile such behavior was. We elect our legislators to act on our behalf, not stall. If a certain party or viewpoint loses, let them lose fair and square and move on.
That was when I first remember hearing about the "nuclear option." Wikipedia defines the "nuclear option" as "a generic term for a set of hypothetical parliamentary maneuvers that could be used in the United States Senate to achieve approval of certain motions by a majority vote, rather than the 'super-majority' required by current Senate rules and precedents. The nuclear option has arisen in reaction to the frequent use of Senate rules by a minority of Senators to block consideration of a nominee for an Executive Branch or judicial position (or less frequently, a bill or resolution)."

from Eyewitness News Online
Oct. 17, 1983 - Davis Creek Foodland Explodes
By Heath Harrison
April 14, 2013
On Oct. 17, 1983, the Davis Creek Foodland was rocked by a massive explosion, leveling the store, located five miles from Charleston.
Emergency crews on the scene initially believed as many as 70 people were dead in the blast, caused by a natural gas leak.
Witnesses in the store had noticed the smell in the store two hours before the explosion as the gas accumulated, but the manager was told by Columbia Gas that the odor was no reason for concern.
Workers and customers near the front of the store were able to easily escape, but crews expected to find bodies near the back of the building.
Fortunately, all 30 workers at the store and customers were found alive, though 18 received injuries from the blast.
The explosion, its aftermath and investigation put the region in the national spotlight and highlighted the dangers of natural gas leaks.
Columbia Gas was eventually fined $200,000 by the West Virginia Public Service Commission over the blast. The agency found the company had improperly tied off the gas line that caused the explosion.
An IGA store was built on the location in 1986.
This week's video, courtesy of the West Virginia Division of Culture and History archives, consists of two vintage WCHS clips from the week of the blast. The first is an on-the-scene report from Sarah Oates. The second, featuring Bob Aaron (in his first year at the station), examines the media coverage of the explosion and the misreporting of casualties. (Note Dan Rather in the clip – WCHS was a CBS affiliate at the time)

An approach to home loans
Dear Editor,
While the government speaks of affordable homes, the effort being made is somewhat invisible to the average citizen. The truth is that most Jamaicans will never own a house if the current practices are allowed to prevail.
The National Housing Trust is good but unlike other countries in the region, it will lend only a portion of the funds required to build a house even if you can't afford the entire amount. Yet the NHT will lend the government money.
With some one million Jamaican squatters, the approach needs to be more proactive. The wasted opportunity of the Jamaica Debt Exchange did allow a reduction in interest rates, but notwithstanding that the reduction in interest rates did not significantly impact the spread of lenders. So there is opportunity for further reduction in rates.
I have a suggestion: the interest rate a customer pays to a lender is made up of several factors. The most obvious of these is the cost that the lender must pay to whomever he or she borrowed the funds from in the first place; and next the cost to operate from day to day. However, another significant part of this is the portion that the lender must put aside to pay back everyday savers and continue operating in the event the loan goes bad.
The risk that the loan will go bad could be covered by the government. The circumstances under which the government would provide coverage would be outlined so not all borrowers would qualify, while simultaneously allowing more borrowers access to funds. This would allow lenders to reduce their interest rates by that cost as it would be borne by the government. Of course, the lenders would have to pay some minimum fee for the government to guarantee this portion of the loan. In addition, it would be prudent to allow everyday investors (financial institutions and individuals) to jump in also and buy a piece of the pie. This strategy would allow the government to bite off bigger chunks of the cost and further reduce rates. To put this into perspective, consider that the loan payment on a mortgage of $10 million is $87,000 per month at 10 per cent, compared to $80,000 per month at 9 per cent, so even shaving off one per cent in interest rate is significant.

Jimmy Dimora's corruption trial may be over,
but the Cuyahoga County Corruption investigation continues.
For the next several
months, the focus of the county corruption investigation shifts back to the
federal courthouse in Cleveland where prosecutors are working to untangle the
many schemes the FBI discovered. They'll
plot strategy, interview cooperating witnesses and in June, go back to the Akron
courthouse for the next prosecution.
Samir Mohammed, one of
Frank Russo's right hand men is next up. Prosecutors say he paid Russo for his
job and bribed Russo, Jimmy Dimora and others to get jobs for members of an
Arab American Social organization, Cameo. The organization was headed up by one
of Mohammed's men named Sam Quasm. Mohammed also is accused of rigging
contracts for a countywide mapping system.
A September trial will
target Anthony O. Calabrese. Feds says Calabrese was previously identified in
several big ticket schemes and could be the biggest remaining king of con men.
He'll go on trial with Sanford Prudhof, the former Lorain Development Director.
There is another case
pending against Jimmy Dimora. This time
around, he won't walk into court on his own free will, he'll be driven in a
prison van instead. Michael Forlani, a local businessman will be his
FBI Chief Steve Anthony
released an interesting statement. It seems to hint that there are new
indictments coming against others. Just another facet of the work being done by
prosecutors in Cleveland.
The question remains, when
will Frank Russo go to prison? Not until all of the above mentioned trials are
over, which is more than a year away.

Post Highlights
National Customer Service week is October 1-5. Every year, the first week in October National Customer Service Week is celebrated. Since 1992, Customer Service Week has been nationally recognized. President Obama's Executive Order 13571: Streamlining Customer Service and Improving Customer Service has encouraged agencies to explore new ways to improve how customer service is delivered. There have been a lot of great outcomes and initiatives that have come out of the mandate. You can take a look at all the signature initiatives on GovLoop, and one of my favorites, the Department of Veteran Affairs Blue Button Initiative.
Recently the House passed HR 538, H.R. 538, The Government Customer Service Improvement Act. The Social Security Administration provides a great overview how they will be impacted, and will dive into this topic deeper next week for other agencies and across government:
Agencies are faced with dozens of questions as to how to provide customer service - who are the key customers we are trying to reach? Who are the core internal and external actors? How do we serve all our customer and align to our mission? How do we measure the effectiveness of a customer service initiative? Over the course of the week, GovLoop will be exploring those challenging questions. We're also looking to you, next week is the perfect time to write a blog post, read up on some GovLoop customer service resources, share a customer success story, answer a forum question, and really take part in the GovLoop community.
We'll be doing our part as well, with a series of blog posts, forum discussions, and highlighting stories in our daily newsletter. Our hope is that we spark conversation about how to delivery, report, and measure customer service in government, enabling you to improve customer service at your agency. To give you a primer for Customer Service Week, here are some great resources for you related to customer service:
Re-Imagining Customer Service in Government: Research Report
Customer service is a core function of government. With government customers having heightened expectations of the level of service government should provide, now is the time for government to identify ways to improve how they deliver customer service. Improving customer service in government does not come without significant challenges. Throughout the Re-Imagining Government Customer Service Research Report, we identify challenges and provide strategies to help you improve your customer service initiatives. We encourage you to view the report, reflect on how customer service operates in your agency, and then share your lessons learned, your best practices and help us work to improve customer service in government. This report is just a start. We want to hear from you and your experiences, together, we can help each other to re-imagine customer service in government.
Using Customer Service Data
This post was part of GovLoop's rollout for the Re-Imagining Customer Service in Government Research Report. Allison Primack writes on GovLoop, "So you take customer service satisfaction surveys, and other data as a metric of your performance, but what do you do with this data after you obtain it? This research revealed that agencies face challenges in using customer service data. Finding a way to ask the right questions in order to make decisions for a wide range of customers is quite the challenge. However, from the research, there are some strategies you can adopt in order to streamline this process, and make it easier to utilize this data in a meaningful way." This post will talk through the strategies and how to use customer service data.
22 Ideas to Improve Customer Service
This post comes from GovLoop Founder and President, Steve Ressler, from one of our Customer Service events. Steve highlights the conversation, and gives us 22 ideas how government can improve customer service.
We have a lot of great resources on GovLoop, and the links above should be a great start to provide you with some of our resources. here are a few more customer service resources:
Is Your Agency Celebrating Customer Service Week?
Views: 3234
Curious to see how m/any of the TLA of the DC area are actually recognizing National Customer Service Week: NSF isn't, to the best of my knowledge.
I love this executive order. I would be really cool if we had some really great examples of it being implemented. Anyone know of a cool implementation? Any Customer Success Stories? Any good examples of Customer Engagement Strategies?

What next for supersonic airliners?
Further funding is required to produce a viable alternative to the supersonic passenger liner, the Concorde, experts say.PT2M44S http://www.watoday.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-20y6q 620 349 June 25, 2012

They're playing with our minds again ... and they're on a sure-fire winner. Aeronautical designers last week again unleashed their trusty headline-grabber about the imminence of a "Son of Concorde".
London to Sydney in four hours, they were saying, in the run-up to next month's Farnborough air show outside London in the UK, which is one of the aerospace industry's main annual sales jamborees.
Importantly, the boffins were talking about the technical details of breakthroughs in computer-aided design that they reckon can finally overcome the biggest obstacle – Concorde's inability to fly supersonically over land.
'Son of Concorde' ... our ability to fly at supersonic speeds over land in commercial aircraft depends on the effort to reduce the sonic boom, says NASA. Photo: NASA/Lockheed Martin
I was sucked in despite a knowing warning yesterday from former Sydney Morning Herald aviation editor Ben Sandilands. "Every single story about a Concorde successor ever written has been wrong," he told me bluntly.
But the highly technical report by veteran aviation writer Guy Norris and colleague Graham Warwick in Aviation Week and Space Technology was very specific about the progress that has been made.
"The biggest barriers to development of economically viable and environmentally acceptable supersonic transports — sonic boom and airport noise — may be about to be breached," they wrote. "Through development of design tools allowing aircraft to be shaped to produce quieter booms, and noise-reducing nozzle concepts, NASA and industry are growing confident that routine supersonic overland flight is within reach."

The London Sunday Times reported that Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Gulfstream were in a race to build a Concorde successor aimed initially at the business jet market.
Backed by the US space agency NASA, the three companies believe they are close to muffling the sonic boom to create a sound described by a Gulfstream engineer as "closer to a puff or plop".
"The fact that the big boys are all close confirms industry rumours that a new generation of supersonic planes is now, finally, within reach," the engineer told the Sunday Times.
The fastest subsonic executive jet, Gulfstream's forthcoming G650, can fly 11,000 kms at 1041km/h and has a top speed of 1133 km/h.
Lighter composite materials, more advanced engines and smaller fuselages could enable new jets to travel about twice as fast as Concorde, which flew at up to 2187 km/h. That would enable speeds of more than 4000 km/h, allowing scheduled "block" times between Sydney and London, 17,000 kms away, of around five hours.
The fastest subsonic executive jet, Gulfstream's forthcoming G650, can fly 11,000 kms at a mere 1041 km/h and has a top speed of 1133 km/h. But the imagined successor, dubbed the X-54, would "prove that an aircraft can be shaped for low sonic boom", according to Aviation Week's report.
The new design would be "sketched out" at Farnborough along with other supersonic prototypes, air show executives told the Sunday Times.
The sonic boom was the major factor that prevented Concorde from ever being developed beyond an expensive experimental aircraft. By the time an Air France Concorde crashed in 2000 in a disastrous encounter with runway debris after taking off from Paris Charles de Gaulle, the plane was already having to deal with daunting ageing-aircraft issues as most Concordes by then were approaching 30 years old.
In the end, without a commercial successor in sight, Air France and British Airways decided to ground them in 2003.
At that time and to this day, the airline industry is mesmerised by affordability, with the Airbus A380 and the Boeing 787 Dreamliner delivering previously unattainably low unit economics – the cost per seat per kilometre.
The X-54 business jet wouldn't fly until after 2020, which means a full-sized jet seating around 300 people wouldn't be available until around 2030 assuming the new technology was reliable and successful.
Even then, the airline industry struggles to answer the question: what would happen to the existing subsonic jet fleet if those flying business and first class suddenly left to become clients of the sexy new supersonic transport (SST)? Most of the world's long-haul international fleet would be uneconomic without business travellers paying up to seven times the going rate down the back of the plane.
But there's no doubt we'll get there eventually. Australia is among the countries farthest from the world's main human populations in the northern hemisphere and the people for whom the term "tyranny of distance" was coined.
What do you think? Are we likely to be flying at supersonic speeds again within 10 years? Or will these concepts remain in the realm of fantasy?
Note: Last week's blog received an overwhelming response from readers. Unfortunately as a result of the huge volume of comments, some comments slipped through that should not have been published. These have since been removed and we apologise for any offence caused.

Does anybody use Multiple Profile Types?
I've seen several threads started on this along with a lot of interest surrounding having multiple profile types on your buddypress site, but no working examples. I am sure a good majority of all buddypress sites could benefit from this feature.
I would like to
- Allow the user to choose their profile type during registration
- Feature different x-profile fields for each profile type
- Have the ability to brand the profile template somehow for each profile type, maybe just adding a badge
- List members by profile type in the member directory, and search the member directory by profile type.
- Options to have paid or free profiles with restrictions/features for each profile type
Does anybody have suggestions/examples/guidance? I will continue my search.

Annette Obrestad's Best Poker Moment: The No-Look Tournament Win
In 2007 Annette Obrestad won a 180-person online poker tournament without looking at her cards a single time. Obrestad, then just 18 years old, covered the portion of her computer screen that showed her hole cards with a piece of paper and proceeded to crush her way to victory playing aggressive, position-based poker. Obrestad has since won the World Series of Poker Europe Main Event for £1 million but says more people know her from winning a $4 online tournament blind than being a WSOP champion. In the latest episode of PokerListings.com's new series "Best Poker Moments", Obrestad reflects on what it was like winning that tournament blind and the reaction she got from poker players and fans.

Villa-Lobos and Kawauti both agreed that Brazil could host a World Series of Poker, and that it would be bigger than either WSOP Europe or WSOP Asia-Pacific. While poker continues to grow in their home country, both these members of Team 888poker continue to travel the world in search of big tournaments. PokerListings.com caught them on a break to find out how it feels being away from home for such an important event, and where they see poker in Brazil going in years to come.
Kara Scott: Poker Needs More Events like WPT500 and Battle of Malta
Team partypoker ambassador, WSOP host, poker player and newlywed, it's amazing Kara Scott ever has time for an interview. PokerListings.com spoke to the former Battle of Malta host at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas and according to Scott, the future of poker lies in big-field, low buy-in event. It's hard to argue with her considering the WSOP is currently hosting the enormous "Monster Stack" event, a new tournament this year with a $1,500 buy-in and a field of 7,862 players. Kara Scott is also looking forward to the WPT500 which is taking place at the Aria in Las Vegas July 4-9. With a tiny buy-in of $500, players will have a chance at part of a guaranteed $1 million prize pool. Scott is well-acquainted with big-value, low buy-in events having hosted the PokerListings.com Battle of Malta in 2012 and 2013. Unfortunately Kara will be hosting the WSOP Main Event at the same time as the 2014 Battle of Malta so she has graciously handed the microphone over to the new BOM host Maria Ho.
Pay Attention - How Not to Suck at Poker Ep. 5
Even if you learn a ton of poker strategy, it's not going to pay off unless you pay attention to your opponents and what's happening at the poker table. In the latest episode of our beginner poker strategy video series How Not to Suck at Poker, we teach you exactly how to pay attention at the poker table to make more money. Pay Attention to Every Hand This is a tip that every poker player has heard but many fail to put into practice. Every hand that plays out at your table is a chance for you to learn something about your opponents. That means that even if you fold, you need to watch and take note of how the people still in the hand are playing. Pay attention to how often players are raising before the flop and from what position. And if their preflop raise gets called, how often are they continuation betting on the flop? Do they like to play their draws fast by betting and raising, or are they just calling and shutting down when they miss? The second you sit down at the poker table you should be watching every other player in the game and profiling them as tight, loose, aggressive or passive. Most players are a combination of more than one style so make sure to pay close attention. Identify the Weak Spots To win at poker you don't have to be best in the world, you just have to better than your opponents. The same thing goes for your table. You don't have to be better than everyone, but if you're the worst player at the table you're going to lose. Most of your profits will come from the worst couple players at the table so you have to be able to identify the weak spots and focus on playing as many pots against them as possible. You also have to be honest with yourself and be able to see when you're the weak spot at the table. Don't let your ego get in the way. Just pick up your chips and find a game where you're not the mark.
Learn Basic Odds - How Not to Suck at Poker Ep. 4
There's no two ways about it: Sucking at poker sucks. We're here to show you how not to suck and our latest episode is an important one: Learning basic poker odds. This video will teach you the basics of pot odds, pot equity and how to compare the two to find out whether you should make a call. Keep watching our 10-part series on How Not to Suck at Poker to stop sucking and start winning today. You don't need to learn any advanced math but you do need to be comfortable calculating things like pot odds, equity, and how common hands match up against each other. If you shy away from learning math, don't worry. You already learned everything you need to know to calculate basic poker odds when you were in elementary school. The whole point of learning poker odds is so you can judge how likely you are to win a hand and how much you should bet or call to get to showdown. Pot Odds The first thing you need to get familiar with is pot odds and it's a really simple concept. Pot odds refer to the amount you have to call compared to the amount you stand to win. Pot odds are important but they're only one piece of the puzzle. Pot Equity refers to your chances of having the best hand at showdown, and by comparing it to your pot odds you can figure out whether or not you should make a call. If your pot odds ratio is bigger than your pot equity ratio you should make the call, if it's smaller, you should fold.

Poker Basics: How to Count Poker Chips Like a Pro
Poker Basics is a 10-part crash course in beginner Texas Hold'em poker strategy. Today's installment covers how to count chips and it's a skill you need to have to play poker live. When you're playing poker it's really important to be aware of how many chips you and your opponents have in your stacks. But when you've got multiple denominations and tons of chips to deal with, getting an exact count quickly can be tough for beginners. But don't worry, there are a few easy tricks to counting chips easily and accurately. The first thing you need to do is make sure your chips are organized by denomination in towers of 20. The easiest way to do that is to grab a handful, drop five on the felt and use your thumb or finger to cut the rest into three more stacks of five. Stack that up and now you have a guide to get all your chips into towers of 20. Now figure out how much each tower is worth. Common tournament denominations include 25, 100, 500 and 1,000. In stacks of 20 they're worth, 500, 2,000, 10,000 and 20,000. Now just add the values of each tower together to find your total. Always knowing how many chips you and your opponents have is really important, especially in tournament poker, and if you spend some time practicing now it'll soon become second-nature.

Randy 'Nanonoko' Lew Says Gamers Have the Skills to Win at Poker
Randy "Nanonoko" Lew has made over $1 million playing online poker and holds the Guinness World Record for most hands played in eight hours while showing a profit. Lew routinely plays more than 24 tables at a time and told PokerListings.com that it's the skills he learned from competitive video gaming that allows him to do it. Lew went even further saying that no matter what video game you play, chances are you've developed skills that will help you win at online poker. Lew played Marvel Vs. Capcom, a one-on-one fighting game, and even though he loved the game and the competition, he quickly realized he couldn't make a living playing it. Once Lew found online poker, however, he was able to earn more than enough money to get by, and even scored a coveted sponsorship deal as a member of PokerStars Team Online. Lew stopped by the PokerListings.com studio in Vancouver to discuss how his background in gaming set him up to succeed at poker, as well as what a great opportunity online poker is for other gamers looking to use their skills to earn a living.
Poker Basics: How To Shuffle Cards Like a Pro
If you play in home poker games where each player deals you'll see beginners making a lot of mistakes shuffling the cards. To make sure the game's fair it's really important that the cards get properly shuffled, and that no one at the table sees where cards are in the deck. The good news is that there are a few easy steps to learning the right way to shuffle cards. Every shuffle should start by giving the cards a wash. Just spread them out facedown and make sure every card comes in contact with the felt. Then gather them up and use one card to pick up the pile. Turn the pile on its side and square the deck. The second step is called the riffle. First, break the deck into two halves. Grab each half using your four fingers, align the inside corner, and use your thumbs to bend the corners up and left the cards fall into place. Relax your grip and push the two halves of the deck together. The third step is called the box. Pick up the deck in one hand and use your other hand to take about a quarter of the cards off the top. Put it down on the felt and repeat until you've gone through the entire deck. The last step is cutting the deck. Now let's put all the steps together. In most casinos, poker dealers are taught to wash the cards, riffle twice, box, riffle one more time and then cut the deck. And make sure to keep the deck on the table while you're doing it so no one can see the bottom card. PokerListings.com: Start your poker journey, today.

Some Springfield residents got an alarming surprise on their driveways this morning.
They found bags with candy and letters from the Ku Klux Klan.
Lonnie Dempsey, a Springfield resident, was shocked when she found an unexpected bag in her driveway.
"It was a plastic bag with candy in it, four Tootsie rolls, and there was a letter in it," said Dempsey. "I opened it up and there was a big Klans letter there.
She wasn't the only one; police collected the bags from about 30 homes on Santee drive in Springfield. They say they were in the right of way and not on personal property, which means they consider it to be litter, regardless of content.
"The paper was a fact sheet of sorts dealing with statistics of black people and inviting white Americans to join the KKK," said Chief Philip Thorne, Springfield Police Department.
They are unsure where or when the bags were put there.
"It's a mixed neighborhood black and whites," said Thorne. "Several citizens who had these in their yards and would have found them if we didn't clean them up were black people…to include a black law enforcement officer. Obviously, the people distributing these items had no clue."
The paper listed a national hotline for the organization. We called the number and got a recording.
A short time later we heard back from a representative who said the letters were genuine. He says the organization isn't out to do any acts of violence and the letters were distributed simply to get more members.
"We would hope the citizens not get incited over this, lets ignore it and hopefully it will go away," said Thorne.
Dempsey turned it into a learning experience for her teenaged children.
"They are young, just starting out, and getting a feel," said Dempsey. "People actually are hating because of the color. You know I'm kind of hurt, but I know it exists… so I just educated them about it. You are going to see it, you have to deal with it."
Chief Thorne said he hasn't heard of this happening anywhere else in the area and he doesn't think it should be any cause for alarm.
The police department will dispose of all the bags the picked up.

Cross Lane reopens after pub roof collapse (From The Bolton News)
Cross Lane reopens after pub roof collapse
Updated 4:50pm Wednesday 5th February 2014 in News By Tui Benjamin, Reporter
CROSS Lane in Radcliffe has reopened after it was closed when a vacant pub's roof collapsed, trapping a 36-year-old man inside.
The road has been closed in both directions between Park Street and Butterworth Street since about 4.30pm last Wednesday.
A council spokesman said one lane of the road is now open to traffic and is to be managed with temporary traffic lights.
It is believed the injured man was a contractor who was checking the structure of the building, formerly The George pub, before buying it from its current owners to turn into four apartments.
He was rescued by police and taken to hospital but his injuries are not thought to be serious.
One woman, a resident of the house next to the pub in Cross Lane, was evacuated but was told on Monday it was safe to return.
Inspectors from the Health and Safety Executive are now investigating the incident.
A Bury Council spokesman previously said it was hoped the road would be reopened within 48 hours.
A police spokesman said: "The police attended and cordoned off the area for the safety of the public.
"The man had scans for his injuries but at this time they are not of major concern."
The latest live traffic and travel news is available here.

9K to compete, what a joke, Canon really are a big monopoly, I dont think I can last much longer, Ive wanted something better than the 5D2 for ages, and the 1DX is too expensive, I own a 5D3 but its not the advancement I was wishing for, its a great camera, but was always hoping for a camera imbetween 5D and 1D, this is never going to happenYes I supose 9k is a lot to spend if your not making money from photography, but for me I will wait to see if it turns out to be a good camera then I'll get the design company I work for to buy one. If I like it I'll buy one for my home business.
That's what many people don't get. This is a PRO camera. A pro will use this camera more in a month than a serious hobbyist will in a year.. And for several years at that rate too. Do people look at the specs for the 1Ds Mark III? It's STILL a fine camera.
When the 5D3 came out, people were pissed that there was this big price increase without much day-to-day improvements over its predecessor. Now that the price is falling on the 5D3, we're getting a good replacement for the 5D2. Nice improvement for the same price. Thank you.
It looks like this new 1S is going to be more of this... Great upgrade for the same price. I hope. I'm personally very excited about it. New sensor technology. I think it's going to blow everything away. The 1Dx is THE best sports camera out there. Now Canon may have the best studio camera too.
It will probably be a year before it becomes generally available... But that okay with me.. More time to save!

Fiskars and Duck Tape are teaming up to make the world smarter and more colorful together.
It's so easy with the new Fiskars® Duck® Edition scissors!
The 4th of July is a perfect time to stock up on star punches for your crafting stash! Stars are not only the perfect embellishment for Independence Day, they are a versatile design for almost any occasion.
I will start with Fiskars' smallest star option, the 1/4 inch star hand punch. This little guy gets a lot of use around my craft room. It punches through cardstock, craft foam, and chipboard ... and paper plates here. I turned a very inexpensive plain paper plate into themed partyware by simply punching a border evenly around the perimeter. It pulls double duty adding craft foam stars to a blue fork. I punched into white self-adhesive craft foam (punch from the back to avoid stars sticking together in the collection chamber) so they were ready to stick. With stars, I needed stripes. I used Fiskars non-stick scissors to cut strips of white craft foam to line up along a red spoon and trimmed off excess.
And one final craft foam star jazzes up a simple cardstock flag for a fun favor for the kids.
To round out the patriotic place setting, I added a simple XL star to the straw by cutting an "X" into the center with a craft knife on a craft mat. The 1/4 inch circle hand punch is often the perfect size to feed on straw embellishments instead. Tip: I used inexpensive maps of the United States (I found at the dollar store) to line the table for an alternate splash of color.
The next party decoration is not only fun to display, but fun to make! Making sun prints can be an activity for the whole family. I punched assorted stars from Post-it Notes for removable masks and spread out onto the clear cover that came with my Solar Print Kit. Alternatively you could use a transparency or clear packaging you might have around.
Following the directions, I developed several sheets of sun print stars and cut them in half to create pennants for a banner once dry. Use a 1/16 inch (or larger depending on string size) hand punch to add holes in each top corner to thread twine for hanging.
Take cupcake toppers to the extreme by adhering assorted layered star punches onto bamboo skewers for a dramatic centerpiece. Cut the skewers into assorted sizes for interest. These mimic fireworks and sparklers and add huge impact so simply.
One of my favorite 4th of July decorations has always been patriotic bunting. I wish I had a wrap-around front porch I could hang it from all the way around my house. But since I do not, I can at least wrap it around a cake stand to anchor my cupcake centerpiece! To create this look, stamp the layered circle from the Shapes N' Such cling stamp set in both red and blue. Punch with circle punch and cut in half. Adhere onto a long strip of cardstock and adhere approximately every other scallop with a mini glue dot onto glass or ceramic stand (spot test first to be sure it is an appropriate surface for easy removal).
For a patriotic floral arrangement, I added ruffled party streamers in stripes down an empty oatmeal container. Cut down each side of streamer with scalloped or pinking edgers. Add a stripe of glue runner around container and press streamer down in sections to ruffle. Continue for each stripe until filled. Add a glass or jar of water hidden inside container to add fresh flowers.
Speaking of streamers, give them a patriotic theme by punching randomly with a 1/4 inch star punch.
A fun way to add patriotic décor outside is with sidewalk chalk. Use the stars shape template for perfect stars every time. Inside or outside, get crafty adding festive stars to your 4th of July celebration.

On Tuesday night the House of Representatives gave final passage to a bill that would avoid the fiscal cliff.
The bill avoids income tax increases for most Americans, but it was a last-minute compromise that left both Republicans and Democrats disappointed. "I hate this agreement," North Dakota Senator Democrat Kent Conrad said. "I hate it with every fiber of my being."
Lawmakers getting ready to leave Washington aren't exactly proud of the deal that will prevent a middle class tax hike and delay automatic spending cuts.
Marc Goldwein of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget said Congress missed an opportunity to tackle the ballooning federal debt.
"This problem isn't going away." Goldwein said. "They are going to have to keep working at it until they get it."
The bill raises taxes on families making more than $450,000 a year and extends long-term jobless benefits for one year. But the law does not include spending cuts or Social Security and Medicare reform, leaving many lawmakers doubtful that Congress will ever reach a sweeping budget deal. "Quite frankly," Ohio Republican Representative Steve Latourette said, "the president won't show the leadership to make the move on the entitlement side, and we've been slow to the dance on the revenue side."
And another showdown is just around the corner. In two months the treasury will need to increase the amount of money the country can borrow, and lawmakers must approve it. "I am most worried about what is happening next," California resident Lisa Fredette said. "After this, I think we have another cliff to go over, and that's really scaring me too, with the debt ceiling."
The last time Congress fought over the debt ceiling, America's credit rating was downgraded.
While income tax rates for most Americans will not go up because of the fiscal cliff deal, everyone can still expect paychecks to be a little bit smaller, because the payroll tax was allowed to rise two percent.
Those making $30,000 a year will pay about $50 more per month in taxes. Those earning $50,000 a year will contribute about $83 more each month. Those making about $115,000 a year will pay about $200 more per month. The payroll tax is used to fund Social Security.
It is also important to note that the fiscal cliff bill does extend unemployment benefits for 25,000 Nevadans through the end of this year. State officials said eligible recipients were notified to keep submitting weekly claims despite the uncertainty in Congress, so that their benefits wouldn't be interrupted.

Rudi were: (1) A late 1970s Northern Irish Punk Rock band from East Belfast. Back in 1975 a gang of school pals from East Belfast fed up with the state of the music that was being played on the radio and on TV(3 channels and no MTV or VH1 in those days kids) decided to form their own band. They were all fans of the 'glam rock' bands which had ruled the pop charts for the previous four years, but it was losing its glitter and becoming increasingly bland. The members of the band were Brian Young, Ronnie Mathews, Graham Marshall, Leigh Carson and Drew Brown.

I voted this week in the Minor League Update poll that Aaron Poreda would be a reliever, specifically a closer. I go back and forth on whether he's a starter or reliever but more often recently I've settled on a reliever. I've not been on the "Clayton Richard is horsedung" one week and "Clayton Richard is awesome" another week ride that others have. He's probably a #4 starter. I consider Adam Russell largely useless. Basically Masset. Dexter Carter currently projects as a reliever. If he managed to develop a changeup, he could end up being a #3 / 4 type starter but his fastball is probably average-ish and his curve can be plus but is inconsistent due to his mechanics. Could all this get sorted out? Sure. But he's a long way from the majors. And, since all of these guys are pitchers, there's the attendant increased injury risk over a position player. So, the White Sox acquire a frontline starter under control for 3-4 more years for a bunch of guys who may not be much more than relievers or backend rotation types. Sounds good, right? Well, the potential problem with the deal is that Peavy's contract isn't good. By no means is it bad but it's not like he's being grossly underpaid. He makes $15M, $16M, $17M, and $22M ($4M buyout) over the next four years. His salary is quite reasonable this year but the Sox are going to be paying him for at least one month of touring North Carolina and training rooms and i'd say it's debatable what the Sox will be getting out of him after he returns from injury. Essentially, the Sox traded for a guy being paid about what he'll be worth going forward and gave up some cheap parts who, no matter what their blemishes, are very likely will be providing some significant surplus value to the Padres going forward. I don't hate the deal - and if Peavy comes back strong to close out this season I'd hate it less - but this isn't a slam dunk for the Sox, either. Kenny Williams is gambling again and we'll see how he does this time.

DIVA TALK: Catching Up With Tony Nominee and Scandalous Star Carolee Carmello
By Andrew Gans
News, views and reviews about the women of the musical theatre and the concert/cabaret stage.
Carolee Carmello
Question: How did you originally get involved with Scandalous? I know you've been through various versions of the show over the years.
It was an Off-Broadway show based on a children's book, and I was playing a part in that, and she asked me to look at the script of Hurricane Aimee, and when I read through it, I found this woman fascinating… Kathie had written it for two different actresses to play. One to play sort of the younger half of her life, and one to play the older half of her life, so she was asking me to play the older half, obviously, and I read through it and I thought, "You know, I think this device is not necessary. If you could get it written for one actress, I think it would be more successful." And, so I was brazen enough to suggest that to her, and to say to her and the director at the time, "Would you consider doing a reading of it with me playing the whole thing and not just the older part?" And, they thought I was crazy—both of them—and they looked at me sort of like I had two heads, but they agreed to try it. And so we did it, and it was really hard, but it was really exciting, and it hasn't ever gone back. Whenever I get to a point like this week where I'm complaining about how much work I have to do in this show, I have to remember that it's all my fault! [Laughs.] I dug my own grave in this one.
Question: Since you said earlier that you didn't know much about her, what type of research did you do?
Question: Is there much video footage of McPherson?
Question: What most surprised you about her when you were doing that initial research or even later?
Question: What have been the challenges of the role and also what have been the joys of playing her?
Question: Even more than Mamma Mia!?
Question: Tell me a little bit about working with Kathie Lee. I often think she gets a bad rap.
Question: Also, tell me a little bit about working with the director, since he's also new to Broadway.
Question: Some people, I think, might be scared off a bit that the musical is about a religious person. What is the appeal of the show for those people? How would you tell them to come to the theatre?
Question: On another topic—how old are your kids now?
Question: Is it a little easier now juggling motherhood with being on Broadway?
Question: You've been doing musicals a long time, and some work and some don't. How do you keep your excitement level up, but also be a little guarded if something will be a success or not?
I'm so thrilled that it made it to this point. After working on something for seven years and doing all these out-of-town productions and workshops and readings, you get to a point where you stop really hoping that it's going to make it to Broadway, and the fact that I'm standing now outside the theatre and looking up at the marquee, I'm kind of shocked and amazed and grateful for that. So whatever happens after this is gravy.

Three founders of Wilde-Stein Alliance for Sexual Diversity will take part in a panel discussion Oct. 18 to celebrate the organization's advocacy for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights for 40 years at the University of Maine.
The panel discussion will be part of a 4:30-7 p.m. celebratory event at Wells Conference Center that includes hors d'oeuvres and beverages. In October 1973, Wilde-Stein received provisional status as a gay and lesbian student group at UMaine.
Named in honor of Oscar Wilde and Gertrude Stein, Wilde-Stein embraces the spectrum of sexualities and genders, offers students the opportunity to socialize in a safe, accepting place and seeks to support and inform the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities.

Tech Jobs: State of the Union
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- President Obama stressed the importance of investing in technology and education in Tuesday's State of the Union address, stating that the nation's ability to compete globally depends on innovation.
Companies like Google (GOOG) and Facebook are models of American success, Obama said, emphasizing the key role that technology will take towards creating new jobs in the country.
|President Obama delivers his the State of the Union address on Tuesday.
During the recession, the tech industry emerged as a bright spot, showing 15% growth in jobs during 2010, compared with 11% job growth overall, according to Moody Analytics.
Unemployment in the tech sector has also remained lower than the national average.While the national unemployment rate hasn't dipped below 9% for the last year and a half, unemployment among tech professionals is around 5.3%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. These rates may be even lower, say some research analysts, as government numbers rely on an outdated definition of professions that comprise the tech sector. Job cuts in the tech sector in 2010 also fell 73% year-over-year, compared to a 59% decline in overall job cuts across all industries, according to global outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas. "Tech is strategically important to employers because [these workers] have skills that are difficult to find," said Tom Silver, senior vice president at Dice, a career website for technology and engineering. "Tech workers help companies improve infrastructure, save money and make their operations more efficient." But despite these gains, the U.S. tech industry still faces challenges, including outsourcing, immigration caps that make it difficult for highly skilled foreign workers to get work visas, and reduced funding and research and development incentives, as a result of the economic crisis. Some states attempt to buck this trend by promoting tech and science at a regional level. "When you look at growing the tech sector you need a strong federal platform, but in the end, all economic development is local," said, Ross DeVol, executive director of economic research at the Milken Institute, a think tank in Santa Monica, Calif. "Regional clusters around universities, research centers, labs, corporate park investment centers -- these are the centers of innovation."

Sale Named A-Sun Pitcher of the Week
FORT MYERS, Fla. - FGCU junior Chris Sale (Lakeland, Fla.) picked up his second consecutive Pitcher of the Week honor (third of the season) after his double-digit strikeout performance at Clemson last week, the conference office announced on Monday.
Sale moved the FGCU baseball team past No. 23 Clemson, 4-2, Saturday evening in Clemson, S.C at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. Fresh off an FGCU record setting 15-strikeout outing, the Lakeland, Fla. native posted another noteworthy performance in the game one start. Improving his record to 7-0 on the year with the win, the junior lefty went eight full innings and allowed just two earned runs on four hits, with 10 strikeouts against the nationally ranked Tigers. Sale owns 103 strikeouts on the season with just 11 walks in 75 innings pitched.
As of April 25, Sale was ranked second in the nation in strikeouts (93), just three behind Asher Wojceichowski's (Citadel) nation-leading (98) strikeouts, while also ranking sixth in strikeouts per nine innings (12.49).

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Gov. Bob McDonnell is being praised by Democrats and the ACLU, groups that typically butt heads with him. And he's getting resistance from fellow conservative Republicans.
That's all because he is pushing legislation that would restore voting rights for nonviolent felons who have finished their sentences.
Democrats who have championed the idea in the past say they were surprised but happy when McDonnell advocated the proposal in his State of the Commonwealth speech.
But his suggestion is getting a chilly reception from many Republican legislators, especially in the House of Delegates, which is up for election in November. They say they prefer the current system, which gives the governor sole authority to restore rights after a case-by-case review.
Changing the process would require a constitutional amendment, which must be approved in two separate legislative sessions and then by the voters.

Geoffrey Beene for woman. This stuff is AWFUL! It is not for me but the ladies at my office seemed to like it alot. I bought a couple bottles of it because it was on sale but I didn't know what it smelled like so I was stuck with it when it came. But not really, someone else liked it, but I sure didn't. I don't know what the ingredient was but it soured my nose terribly but its a personal thing because others loved it. I like sweet powdery scents and this is not one of them. Hey, you might love it, but not me!

I just finished a bottle and will soon get some more! There is nothing like this scent when you are out and about on a Spring or Summer day. It gives me a head start on "keeping" a light hearted attitude and lasts all day!

Enjoy kids' crafts and ice cream at the grand opening of the Morris Arboretum's annual Summer Garden Railway display on May 24.
Visitors can admire a quarter-mile of track featuring seven loops and tunnels with 15 different rail lines and two cable cars, nine bridges—including a trestle bridge that can be walked under—and bustling model trains, all set in the lovely garden of the Morris Arboretum.
The display and buildings are made of natural materials such as bark, leaves, twigs, hollow logs, mosses, acorns, dried flowers, seeds, and stones to form a perfectly proportioned miniature landscape. Each building is an exact replica of the original and is unique in its design. Philadelphia-area landmarks such as a masterpiece replica of Independence Hall are made using pine cone seeds for shingles, acorns as finials, and twigs as downspouts.
The grand opening takes place on May 24 from 1 to 3 p.m. at Morris Arboretum, 100 E. Northwestern Ave. The event is free with admission. The Garden Railway will remain on display through Sept. 1. For more information, visit www.morrisarboretum.org.
