VCU Police are turning to new technology, new time-tables and new relationships to keep students safe as they return to campus. The new school year means new students and new officers, so NBC12 caught up with Chief John Venuti to find out how his people are keeping the campus and the surrounding communities safe.
For students it's time to hit the books. For VCU Police officers, it's time to hit the streets.
"We've made enhancements to lighting," Chief Venuti listed. "We've made enhancements to security. We've cut down trees and bushes and shrubs based on where people tell us areas look unsafe."
The enhancements come in technology, as well.
Just this past weekend, VCU unveiled its new "Livesafe" app. It will help you keep in touch with the police department. You can report information, call police, have a safety map or put in your alert contacts.
VCU PD has also revamped its patrol shifts in order to have maximum manpower at specific times.
"We really look at the data that we have from prior years and we know that the evening hours between 9pm and 3am in the VCU footprint are really, really critical times," Venuti added.
Last school year, there were robberies of students during those critical times. Venuti explained Tuesday, he's aggressively working on preventing those crimes, many of which went down not on the core campus, but in the surrounding neighborhoods.
Officer Greg Felton is working full-time to facilitate the relationship between residents there and students, by tackling issues with trash, noise and parking.
"The challenge is really trying to find a balance between a large university and a resident population," Felton said.
Felton explained they'll use the student code of conduct as motivation.
"The code, it follows them whether they live on campus or they live off campus," he added. "We enforce that code. We also let the property owners know that their tenants and their residents are expected and really required to conduct themselves in a way that allows for a peaceful coexistence."
Chief Venuti expects to do a student safety perception survey at the end of September.

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Tree (see picture on right) - I used a carpet roll and painted it brown. Then I used an old (green) umbrella and just placed it inside the carpet roll to look like palm leaves. I was going to wad up a couple of brown paper bags and completely cover them with brown duct tape to look like coconuts and mount them to the umbrella, but I didn't have time. Next, I used adhesive velcro and placed 26 squares all around the tree. I laminated some alphabet cards and placed the other side of the velcro on the backs of the cards. As I read the story, I had the children find the letter and place it on the tree. When I got to the part in the story when all the letters fell out, they all helped me take the letters off the tree and start over. They LOVED this activity. (My INSPIRATION for this tree came from here ------> click here.)
I taught my children the alphabet in sign language. When I read the story "Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom" to my class, I had them sign each of the letters as I read them in the book. It made them think and it was a lot of fun. (If you don't know the alphabet in sign language, you can google in or watch video clips from You Tube).

Judicial Branch
Oral Argument Schedule
The majority of cases before the Montana Supreme Court are decided based upon the written briefs submitted by the parties. However, the Court may decide that a case requires further discussion, in addition to what the parties have argued in their written briefs. In such cases, oral arguments are scheduled in open session before the Court. Approximately 30 cases a year are scheduled for oral argument.
Oral arguments are tightly structured and timed. The counsel for each party is allowed limited time to make an argument. The times typically range from 20 to 40 minutes and are set forth by the Court in the order setting oral argument.
While this format allows the counsel brief opportunity to further develop their arguments, it also gives the Court an opportunity to ask questions of the attorneys on points which the Court needs clarification.
A majority of oral arguments take place in the Montana Supreme Court Courtroom, located at 215 N. Sanders, Helena, Montana. The Court does schedule a few arguments to be heard in different cities around the State.
All of the oral arguments are open to the public.

Even though I'm inclined to agree, but there seems a be a certain philosophical shift that needs to take place in society before any progress can be made. Or perhaps it's a shift that needs to be made by those who are the most vocal and influential on such issues. It seems that when you take the extreme opposing viewpoints you get one thing in common which is the idea that there is humans, and then there is nature. One side is that humans are destroying nature. The other side is that nature will do whatever it wants regardless of what humans do. The truth is any organism has the capability to drastically alter its environment to its benefit or detriment. One extreme example would be locusts. Physical, behavioral, and social adaptations all contribute to the organism's ability to do so. Humans or no different. It's just that behavioral and social adaptations play a much much much bigger role for us (I mean let's face it. Humans aren't physically impressive as opposed to say a grizzly). The archetypes of the opposing viewpoints of environmental issues need to go away and we need to think in terms of 1) we are part of the environment and thus are inevitably going to alter it in some way. 2) because we will alter our environment, how can we do it safely and sustainably.

Sweetheart Charmeuse Gown with Pick-Up Skirt Style WG3339 43 44
Love the dress!! I saw this online and loved it. Went into the store and it was the first one I tried on and loved it even more!! The fabric is so nice and sleek. It's super comfortable and not too puffy at the bottom (which I didn't want). Definitely recommend this dress!!! January 21, 2012
It's the one! I just purchased this dress in late Dec and was told it would arrive in April... it just came this week, only 3 1/2 weeks later! I love this dress. I am a size 4 street clothes and ordered a size 2, it fits perfect - the only alteration I need is the hem. I'm 5'7" and tried it on with 3 1/2 in heels and it was a perfect length, but I'm not wearing heels that high so... What I love most about this dress is the fabric. It is light and soft, so soft. It allows me to move and breathe with comfort. I'm also not pulling it up all the time. There's no bead work, and it doesn't need it (jewelry is for that). The satin fabric has a beautiful glow and shimmer all on its own. It's simple and elegant. Definitely worth trying on! January 13, 2012
Yippie I went to davids bridal before the new arivals came and tried on dress after dress. With no luck!!! Finally made an appt for the new line and this was the second dress I tried...nothing else came close to it. It light weight, clean, and comfy. The sweet heart neckline did me in for sure. I couldnt of picked a more perfect dress for my fall wedding. Ty to all the ladies at DB that made this possible. Ps fellow brides it goes great with a color belt of some kind and a little beaded veil to give it more of a spark. January 9, 2012
LOOOOOVE THIS DRESS!!!!!! I tried on this dress when I went to my local D'sB store after trying on about 7 other dresses. All of the dresses were very nice, and I actually decided on another dress to be "my dress." This dress was still in my dressing room, so I figured it couldn't hurt trying it on. Thank goodness I did!!! I came out and saw my mom and sister's faces and knew that this was a good one. I looked into the mirror and knew that I had found the dress that I want to get married in. This dress has everything I wanted in a dress: flattering structure and gathering at the waist, sweetheart neckline, a little bit of sparkle but not too much, not too long of a train... basically, my dream dress. This picture shows the dress with a sash at the waist, but I don't have that, and it looks great! I can't wait to walk down the aisle to the man of my dreams in this dress!!! December 26, 2011

After becoming a hit at Sundance and South by Southwest (our review called it "impressive and charming"), Joseph Gordon-Levitt's directorial debut, the porn addiction comedy "Don Jon," finally has a trailer. And judging by the brief glimpse at the movie, it's easy to see why audiences went loony for this – it looks pretty damn charming, with Levitt leading an amazing cast (including Scarlett Johansson, Julianne Moore, Tony Danza and Brie Larson) and an original, totally identifiable take on the modern romantic comedy.
After a rambling 40 seconds or so of Gordon-Levitt introducing the clip (just show us the goods, Robin), the trailer starts with narration by Gordon-Levitt's "Don Jon" Martello, with the New Jersey accent slathered on nice and thick. "There's only a few things I care about," he says before listing them off: "My body, my pad, my ride, my family, my church, my boys, my girls and… my porn." Until, of course, he meets Scarlett Johansson as Barbara. He falls in love and things seem to be going swimmingly until she discovers his porn addiction. Then things get sticky (pun very much intended).
There's a great moment in the trailer where Scarlett walks in on her and she asks what he was doing, to which he replies, "I was just reading emails." It's pretty funny. The movie also looks incredibly stylish, with all of the actors seemingly having the time of their lives. Speaking of which, we also get a glimpse of the movie-within-the-movie, featuring Anne Hathaway and Channing Tatum. Can't wait.
"Don Jon" opens on October 18th.

Joseph-Gordon Levitt never disappoints. I mean, seriously, he may be a serial killer under all that perfection. Just sayin'. This film looks hilarious because it's so real-to-actual life. ....aaaand, that's kinda sad.

Can't help but notice it opens the same way The Lookout does... Regardless, I'll see anything he's in.

So Joseph Gordon Levitt wants to be Mark Whalberg, that's it?
BEF | May 22, 2013 3:56 PM
This looks better than I thought from the description ... especially if there is a decent amount of dissection of rom com/porn on the same plane of falsities.

"Good Solid Asimov"
Currents of Space is certainly not Asimov's best. However it is a good, solid stand alone story that is within his Galactic Empire Series (Stars Like Dust, Pebble in the Sky). These novels (along with the End of Eternity) fit (in my opinion) into a "boyhood sci-fi genre". Clever plot-lines that a re entertaining and keep your interest. I enjoyed it.
I would. The under tones of racial prejudice and economics were reminiscent of Colonial America and, though simplistic were thought provoking. This is clearly not on par with Le Guin or Herbert but this is a fast paced story with a lot of turns in it, it reads more like a detective novel.
His characterization of the Squires was fantastic. I frankly don't know how he could affect some of those accents, I found it impressive.Some people may find his feminization of some of the Squires offensive but it really put them in a light similar to the dandies of English Colonial America. I thought he did a great job.
I decided to re-read all the Galactic Empire Series, which is the worth the time for me. If you will only read 1 non-Foundation Asimov I would recommend End of Eternity. But if you are a "completist" for Asimov's earlier work, then I think it is well worth the listen.
This novel is over 50 years old, some of the basic cosmological premises are no longer considered correct. Asimov was a tenured bio-chemistry professor, so his interest in science is clearly evident and far be it from me to criticize it. As a ready you will need to "suspend your disbelief" if you are hard sci-fi fan.I didn't find this to be a problem, the material was thought provoking on a social and scientific basis.
"Sophmore Slump"
A little more dialogue and space opera elements than previous installment.
Holden. Great character in the Indian Jones vein, good characterization./
Jefferson Mays does a great job overall....Holden is my favorite
No way too long....
This is a solid series, the second book is pretty much a set up for the third installment. Sometimes it gets a bit mired in politics, but the reader should hang in there...there are necessary plot installments here that will pay off in the third book.
"Asimov's Best Stand Alone Novel"
I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys Science Fiction. Asimov is the master and this is him at the top of his game. Intrigue, imagination, cleverly written and thought provoking
I found the depiction of the creatures in the parallel universe very touching. It was an interesting way to comment on humans, but in an indirect manner.
I enjoy Scott Brick. The Asimov series used William Dufris for the Robot Series and he did a good job as well. Scott has done most (unfortunately not all) of the Galactic Empire and Foundation Series and he does a superb job. His strength is not in performing different characters but in adding gravity to the dialogue. You will have to keep track of the characters closely, but overall Scott is excellent.
No way too long.
This is my last book in my re-read of the Asimov Series after many years, and it dawned on me why he is not given more credit as a writer. These stories are intended to entertain. They are detailed, clever and help you escape into another world. Although they have commentary on the human plight and our interaction with each other there is no pretension of climax or overly dramatic ending. Unlike much of what we see on TV and movies, the stories are more to be savored than change your life. Asimov wrote these to amuse himself primarily, and as a reader you almost wish they would never end. I cannot recommend them highly enough for someone looking to escape into a place that makes you forget about the everyday. To me that is what entertainment ultimately is, and why I think Asimov is underestimated and not given enough credit. Kudos Audible, great job.
"Short and Sorta OK"
I don't think so. I enjoy Buddhism, Zen in particular. This approach to explaining it's essence was somewhat unappealing. A bit pompous, a bit condescending. This is probably a personal perspective completely, others may find it appealing.
There are other books I enjoyed more on the topic. Audible has several good approaches. I would recommend listeners look elsewhere and check the ratings, which I generally find helpful.
Wooden, laconic.
No. I think Audible does a good job overall.
Knowledge Must be Free
I read it as a young boy, and then read it again as an older adult. I was surprised how much more it resonated. With more information available the need to wall people off from critical information for various reasons has become more complicated, yet the bottom line remains a fascinating point of discussion.
When the fireman realized that the implications of his actions go beyond his job. I think every thinking person has a moment of clarity similar to this, a point where there is a realization that some things cannot be rationalized. Behavior must change, and with it the need the be a different person. This type of Sci Fi was popular in the early days of the genre. Today it may seem corny or simple, and I understand that fully. Complex, action based stories are important today in the marketplace. I would suggest however reading these types of stories occasionally as a respite from the prevalent genre. Classic Sci Fi, well done.
Go home and read a book, movies ruin most stories....
This is a short book. The genre emerged from a short story format and this was written during a transition to the longer, novel form. Some readers might not want to spend a credit on such a short book. But it is well done, and the story is simple and compelling. I recommend it highly.
"Series Climax"
I might. All of the Foundation books are great, they are a multi-layered set of books that have timeless elements of political intrigue, human frailty and interplay and a story that spans generations. Science Fiction doesn't get much better.
Obviously the other Foundation books are similiar in tone however there are other books from the time period that I would say are somewhat similar. This era of Sci Fi put value on the importance of the genre beyond pure entertainment. Books that carry that same gravitas are Childhoods End, The Dispossessed, Dune and The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. None of these books have the same story line but share with Foundations Edge the over riding concern to combine entertainment with a Sci Fi genre that has something to say about people and what we can become.
I like Scott Brick, he is very involved in his characterizations. He never seems to be just reading, I think he does a great job. Some reviewers think he is a bit overly dramatic but that never bothers me.For this material, occasional melodrama is not out of place. He is one of my favorite narrators on Audible, and I wish he did the final book in the series.
Probably not. I typically listen to 2 books a month. A lot of times, especially with a great book like Foundations Edge, I don't want to rush through the book. I want to savor it a bit, and I am somewhat disappointed when it is over. This book is an example of that listening experience.
Overall Audible has done a nice job with the Asimov Series. My only gripe is that Robots and Empire is missing, and the narrator on Forward the Foundation and Foundation and Earth is a bit misplaced. The Robot Series, Galactic Series and most of the Foundation Series is done excellently. Listening to 12 of the overall 15 books will more than suffice in getting a great understanding of what Asimov intended, and the arch of his universe. Well done Audible.
"Sci Fi Classic(s)"
Yes I would. The audible version is stellar and these books (Foundation Series) are a must read for any fan of Sci Fi or speculative ficiton.
Everyone of them. Superbly done.
I have read some negative reviews of Scott Brick and I don't get it. I think he is terrific, he lends the right tone of drama to material that lends itself to that type of delivery. He was great in the Dune Series and his work here is equally well done.
Not really. These books are logical puzzles, with lots of characters and sub-plots. The fun is in keeping track of it all, in a world that Asimov has built just for you.
This is a must read. Audible has done a great job with the Asimov books. I suggest reading reading the Robot Series and the Galactic Series first, then delving into the Foundation Series. However read Prelude to Foundation last, which is largely background information.
"The Continuation"
I consider The Foundation Series, as done by Audible to be one of the best done by Audible. Excellent work on a classic series.
The Foundation is similiar in scope to the Dune Series. At the time this was very groundbreaking, a created universe with its own rules.
Every character is done with Scott's typical panache. He lends an aura of dramatic importance to the text that I greatly appreciate.
Read books, movies are never as good.
Well Done audible.
"Some of Audible and Asimov's Best"
Asimov is a very underrated writer. The Robot Series are a good example of his early work, Robots of Dawn was written later in the series and you can see how he matured as a writer, thinker and puzzle creator/solver. If you are an Asimov completest, this book represents an important bridge in understanding the connection between the Galactic Empire and the Foundation. Great stuff..
It favorably compares to the other Robot novels, but this is a more mature version of the story. The themes are adult and take the story out of its childhood premises of earlier novels. In fact he plays on the theme of the young child and robot fascination with an interesting literary allusion.
I really like the work that Dufris did in this series. Very well done.
The ending to this story is clever, well executed and a bridge to later novels, series and story lines. The intelligence of Asimov in weaving a complex story together is exemplified in how this specific story arch ends. the next book, Robots and Empire is somewhat different since Elijah Baily is only in that story historically. We say good to Elijah in this story as a foundational Asimov character, but it is not done melodramatically, its done in a way that demonstrates his intelligence and tenacity.
I implore Audible to make available Robots and Empire. I realize digital rights are bit complicated these days but this is an important story and the bridge to Prelude to Foundation. I would like to thank Audible for making the Robot Series available, it was briefly pulled off the Audible shelves, while they fixed an audio problem.
"A Bedrock of Modern Sci Fi"
I rank this book very highly. This series was taken off Audible for a few months to correct some audio errors. The series is back, and its spectacular. If you are a fan of modern sci-fi, you owe it to yourself to return to this classic series. It helps to form the foundation of many of the literary conceits common today. Asimov changed our perceptions are the man-machine relationship from Frankenstein to a story about the complexities of life and it works great.
Fundamentally Asimov uses the basis of Kant's logic and weaves it into a detective story. This is somewhat similar to but very different from other stories in the genre. He imbues the characters with humanism and reason to weave a fascinating story that forms the basis for his Galactic Empire and Foundation Series.
Any scene with the the main character(s) and the humanoid(s). I think the clever wordplay is difficult to match in any other author. Finding humanity in the non-human goes beyond personification, its just brilliant.
Asimov is not really that type of author. A common criticism of him is that his characters are not very well developed. Not sure I fully agree, I view them as not having alot of melodramatic emotion. Asimov rarely plays the emotional card. These are books that define logic and complex story telling. I find the entire series the foundation of science fiction and modern literature. Asimov is an under rated author.
Great job audible. I implore you to get the last book in the series, Robots and Empire. I realize there might be copyright issues since it was written much later, but it is an important work in the Robot/Galactic/Foundation story arch.
"An Inspiring Story About a Real Athlete"
I thought was fantastic, Great narration, well done story. Overall this was a very enjoyable listening experience. At times inspirational, at times moving, and at times I could only listen in astonishment. It is easy to be jaded about the modern athlete today. Endorsement deals, mega contracts, a seemingly lack of interest. Here is a guy who without any future goal of money pursued a dream and focused on the process. If you area weekend athlete you will find this story inspirational.
This is a very honest book. His life was difficult at times, but he overcame the only way he knew how, through hard work and dedication.
He did a good job. Jurek is a complicated guy. The narration brought come that fact. At times you might not like him in this story, but on balance the way he overcame is difficulties cannot be denied.
I really cannot do that on my schedule, but this is a story that you want to come back to. I had not been exposed to Ultra Running before, being only a marathon runner myself, but the characters in this community were fascinating to me.
There seems to be a renewed interest today in health, natural eating and grass roots sports. I hope this book helps to fuel that interest and gets more people involved in their local 5k, Spartan Race or marathon. It helped me keep my interest alive and reiterated why I got involved in these activities to begin with.

The Ultimate Summer Music Guide showcases hometown gospel great (and cover subject) Mavis Staples, includes a busy person's guide to Pitchfork and Lollapolooza, highlights the faces of Chicago's exploding rap scene, and offers much more.

On newsstands Thursday, the issue also takes a deep dive into the tragic story of the late Josh Marks, who had been a rising culinary star. After finishing as runner-up on Gordon Ramsay's reality cooking show MasterChef, the Washington Heights native seemed to be on his way to making it big. Then, suddenly, his life began to spiral out of control, including multiple run-ins with the police, bizarre behavior, a diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia, and, ultimately, his suicide last October at the age of 26. In The Voices in Josh Marks' Head, Chicago documents the rapid descent of Marks and the frustrating struggle of his family to find adequate mental-health help for him.

One of the latest trade rumours – Jeremy Guthrie to the Jays.
I know what you are all expecting – I am usually the one who points out the red flags / negatives about a Jays rumouree. So, just to cross you up, here are 7 things that I LIKE about a potential Guthrie trade.
He likes the Dome
In 266 PAs at the Rogers Centre, JG has an ERA of 2.77 and a batting line against of .206/.242/.371/.613. That is good. D*mn good. Just for context – Roy Halladay's lifetime stats at the Dome are 3.23 and .243/.283/.376/.660.
Solid overall AL performance
In the 5 years he was with Baltimore (2007-2011), JG had an ERA of 4.12 despite playing his home games at Oriole Park, ranked as the 6th best hitter's park in the majors. The difference between his career ERA on the road of 4.02 and his career home ERA of 4.63 reflects this park factor.
Innings eater
In the last 5 years (to 2011), JG has pitched 983 innings (or just under 200 IP per year). That is 7th best in the AL.
Plays better against good teams
JG's career ERA against teams with a winning percentage < 50% is 4.55. His career ERA against teams with WP>50% is 4.20. So he is not a SP who maintains a good ERA by feasting on the weaklings.
Doesn't fade in the second half
His career ERA in the first half of the season is 4.39, and his career ERA in the second half is 4.25. Speaks well of his conditioning?
Colorado factor
His ERA this year in Colorado is a <ahem> "less than outstanding" 6.68. But that is composed of a 9.53 ERA in Coors and a 4.28 ERA on the road. Hard to fault JG completely for having an atrocious ERA in the single worst park for pitchers in MLB.
Intelligent, veteran SP
Guthrie is 33 years old and a Stanford graduate. 2012 is his 9th year in the bigs. In the current Jays rotation, the "old man" is Brandon Morrow at 27, with 3 years of starting pitching. A knowledgeable veteran like JG could be of great benefit to the Drabeks, and Alvarezes and Hutchisons.
As always, the caveat. Guthrie is currently earning $8.2 million per year and is set to become a free agent in 2013. Both of those factors decrease his value to the Jays, and the price that A-squared would likely pay. But at the right price …. !

Reviews of Taj Pamodzi Hotel
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Taj Pamodzi Hotel
Friendly, business class hotel. Good sized, clean rooms. Well used by local business community.
Pick up and drop off at Lusaka Airport.
Taj Pamodzi Hotel review
No transfer bus waiting for us at the airport. (A hotel bus arrived to deliver aircrew but refused to take us or ring the hotel, despite having a mobile 'phone!)
Managed to get Proflight to ring the hotel and a bus arrived over an hour after we got through Customs. Advised Management (who apologised) and said we would be letting you know about their pick up failure.
Return to airport well organised by the Concierge and left/arrived on time.
Taj Pamodzi Hotel review
The Taj Pamodzi is a good all round stopover hotel near the airport. When we attempted to order a cocktail in the cocktail bar they could not provide our first two choices from their list.Read more about the whole trip
Back to earth with a bump
I am sure the service was good however after Tafika we felt that the hotel did not really want to see us and we were just another 2 tourists passing through.
The evening meal was poor.....we had a steak each and returned Pam's since it was cold and we were not sure it had been cooked.
The room was average and neither Pam or I slept well.........Oh for the delights of Tafika.
the end of our holiday unfortunately!
well organised but a shock after the bush !Read more about the whole trip
Taj Pamodzi Hotel review
smart place and very typical international hotel. Indian buffet meal was fun. They need to advise visitors to Luzaka Airport that they will meet them outside the terminal, not inside with other "meet and greet" activities.
1/2 hour trip to airport is fine.
A bit unnecessarily smart for the ex-bushcamp folk who looked rather scruffy compared with the immaculate locals. One nearer and cheaper for the airport would probably do.
good stopover at taj
good hotel for one night stopover did everything it said on the tin pick up on time ,nice room ,excellent room service and food breakfast ready at five as stated transport to airport may be a touch early but people on the bus were on an earlier flight to joburg so that could be the reason
a nice rest before flight home
Taj Pamodzi Hotel review
An overly ornate gin palace dripping with wealth with poverty nextdoor. A real culture shock after a safari very inpersonal and beeter suited to business clients than tourists even if they want a bit of comfort on their final night in Zambia, suggest you consider alternatives (Anna I know you are doing)
I wanted to go back to the bush!!"!
Taj Pamodzi Hotel review
A night at the Taj Pamodzi is a very nice way to end a trip in Zambia.Read more about the whole trip
Taj Pamodzi Hotel review
Only spent barely 12 hours there; location was very convenient for the early morning return flight to the UK.
The transfer with Voyages Ndola worked well.

The complete history of Lew Wolff, Oakland, and San Jose
A great missive on the A's location crisis. It's a long, but good read. Highlights: Wolff spent three years, both before and after he took over as managing partner in 2005, actively exploring locations in Oakland, starting with the parking lot at the Coliseum. But from my own reporting on the city's stadium options the decade before, I suspected that was a dead horse, and Wolff probably flogged it long after it was clear it couldn't run. If you know Wolff and hear him insist, "We did not buy the team with San Jose in mind," you know from his voice that he means it in a certain way, like when you want to throw a look-away pass to your favorite receiver. That is: First you sell everyone, even yourself, on going to the guy you've got your eyes on. And if he's open, you do throw over there. But in the back of your mind, you've got the itch to go in another, much more rewarding direction. Wolff [was] a key player in [San Jose's] redevelopment, and with its first real sports team. Even I, who knew how desperately San Jose yearned to be counted as big-time, had no clue how out-of-their-heads nuts the locals would be in their devotion to their Sharks. When the team made the play-offs for the first time, in '94, the giddy atmosphere in what was then called the San Jose Arena was so rarefied, it was like the place had been filled with helium. Given [the scale and growth of franchise values], a successful San Jose A's franchise could someday be worth more than $1 billion, even with the huge debt that will accompany a new stadium. I, for one, am convinced that the San Jose A's would be greeted with the same rush of excitement that the Sharks unleashed.

(CBS 8) - He looks like two different dogs because genetically he could be. Students at the veterinary hospital at Texas A&M are studying an unusual canine that may have double DNA, and is now an internet hit.
It's the photo that's going viral online of one cute pup named Bull that might have started off as two.
"Bull could be a chimera, and a chimera is actually a fusion of two embryos," Maria Kounnas, PhD of NeuroGenetic Pharmaceuticals said.
Kounnas says Bull could be a fascinating genetic oddity of twins merging into one.
"One black dog, one blond dog and now these guys are formed, fused together to be one single dog," she said.
Bull's markings have made him an internet star. CBS 8 posted his photo on our Facebook page a week ago after first seeing it on the Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital's Facebook page. The post has since been seen by more than 380,000, the highest numbers we've seen in the history of our station's Facebook page. The story prompted comments, and some controversy.
"The guy is so unique and cute, of course everyone is interested in him. So I think it would be nice to have the scientific follow-up," Kounnas said.
But we may never know the results. On Facebook, Texas A&M's Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital has thanked everyone for their interest in the now-popular pup, but the school says to respect his family's privacy, they will not be giving any updates on Bull's care.
Kounnas says the other genetic explanation for Bull's markings could be mosaicism, meaning Bull may have started out as one embryo with a gene mutation that caused him to have two colors of fur.

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - A San Diego man says his neighborhood and home are overrun with rats and he wants county officials to do something about it.
David Montgomery contacted News 8, hoping to bring attention to the problem.

This song is called "Blue Jeans," and it is sung by Lana Del Rey, a woman with a baffling story— baffling, in part, because it hardly exists.
In the States, Del Rey hasn't quite matched up to the likes of, say, Gaga in popularity. (Granted, I've been living the expat life for a little while now, but Facebook is a fairly reliable source for keeping myself in the American cultural loop, and Del Rey has yet to be mentioned. But I digress.) I first heard her voice a few weeks ago after arriving in Germany. Her music video "Video Games" was number one the German charts, not only matching, but beating Gaga's "Marry the Night." "Video Games" is the type of song that I imagine mermaids have on repeat as they float through Atlantis, and Del Rey's voice simply obligates the use of the word "haunting." The video itself is a compilation of old and not-so-old film clips interjected with stoic Del Rey, seemingly made up as a 1950s Barbie doll. Bouffant hair? Check. Pouty lips? Check. Long, dark eyelashes? Double check. The look certainly matches Del Rey's self-designated nicknames—"the gangsta Nancy Sinatra" and "Lolita in the hood." The song itself is subtle in nature, but the video screams nostalgia. And if you continue to pay attention, you might notice the effortless lyricism of the song. "Swinging in the backyard/Pull up in your fast car/Whistling my name," it begins. It's bound to capture your attention.
The song "Blue Jeans"—which I've included in this post, due to solely to the fact that I prefer it—has a similar relaxed-yet-evocative poetic quality: "Blue jeans, white shirt/Walked into the room, you know you made my eyes burn/It was like James Dean, for sure/You so fresh to death & sick as ca-cancer/You were sorta punk rock, I grew up on hip hop/But you fit me better than my favorite sweater…"
So what's the deal with Lana Del Rey? Well, having been born in 1991, the first thing I did was google her, and within .12 seconds, I ended up on her Wikipedia page. The first words on the page are "Elizabeth Grant," followed by these words (not in this order, and paraphrased): or, "Lizzy Grant," daughter of a multi-millionaire who attended boarding school is a singer who's been trying to make it big for a few years now. Rich daddy marketed her first album, 2010's Kill Kill, on iTunes, before it was withdrawn for unknown reasons. And that brilliant name, Lana Del Rey? Invented by a group of managers and lawyers over the course of five years.
"Ouch," I thought. "Lana Del Rey isn't real. She's just an aesthetic, a product of marketing."
Then, I returned to google, and in a completely uncharacteristic move, clicked some on links below Wikipedia. Turns out, Ms. Del Rey has been the object of some controversy. That album which mysteriously disappeared from iTunes? Evidently, it was a pop piece, a not-so-great imitation of the greats (think Britney Spears). But then her producers thought better of it, and turned her into a walking Urban Outfitters. "The vanishing of her old music online in place of the new has led writers to call her the 'Frankenstein of Indie,'" reads the Telegraph in the best line I've found all night. Some say she's injected her lips with collagen, and others say there's a whole lot more plastic surgery to boot. She claims that that she was living in a trailer park and couldn't afford cocoa puffs, much less those expensive procedures. Wikipedia reminds us that her father is a multi-millionaire. And perhaps it's Jimmy Wales looking at me with those pleading eyes at the top of the page, but I tend to believe Wikipedia.
"So, maybe she's inauthentic. That's not a crime. That's, like, 93% of the music industry," I thought. "But it's kind of heart-breaking, because she's actually pretty damn good."
But the criticism doesn't stop there. Her image and songs have been ripped apart by the likes of Amy Klein of the band Titus Adronicus. Remember those few lines from "Video Games" I quoted? Well, here are some following lyrics from the same song: "I'm in his favorite sun dress/Watching me get undressed/Take that body downtown." Further on: "It's you, it's you, it's all for you/Everything I do." Amy Klein was not impressed, and responded thus:
Lana Del Ray is sitting at home waiting for you to come home so she can fix you dinner and a drink. Lana Del Ray is waiting for you to come home so she can watch you play video games on the couch and ignore her all day until it's time for bed. Lana Del Ray is waiting for you to come home so you can go to bed and act out all of your wildest fantasies which is exactly what she wants to do—what you want to do, that is. Lana Del Ray is waiting for you because she is your mirror.
So it doesn't matter if Lana Del Ray is entirely sarcastic when she belts out, "It's YOU, it's YOU, it's all for YOU." It doesn't matter that there is an edge to her voice that sounds something like rage and despair. Lana Del Ray has conquered America with plastic surgery, video games, a regression to nostalgia, and an appeal to the sex drive of every male music critic on the planet. It doesn't matter if she has anything real to sell because Lana Del Ray has made us think about the relationship between selling fantasy and selling lies.
Lana Del Ray is the lie we like to tell ourselves—that America has always been, and will always be, this gorgeous woman who can make all our dreams come true. So it doesn't matter if she loves you or hates you because she is going to take all of your money and you are going to let her get away with it. That's the reality of who she is.
Consider, though. If Ms. Del Rey does write her own songs and has at least a part of creating her own image, then the "edge to her voice that sounds something like rage and despair" is significant. The importance behind words often lies in the subtext rather than the obvious meaning, and the vulnerability behind her singing evokes an image of simultaneous hopelessness and acceptance. Hopelessness because she is aware of her sexualized image and her love for that man who treats her like that 1950s Barbie doll, and a bizarre acceptance of this awareness. Why? Perhaps she remembers a time when her life was not so forgiving. Perhaps she's simply given up. Sure, Del Rey's image is contrived, and chances are, I'm giving this girl way too much credit. But that doesn't make this tale any less frightening.
Lana Del Rey is a phantom. And friends, try as you might, you can't find a more intriguing story than a mystery.

Product is good but the recommended temperature was a bit higher than I would suggest (306 is what I prefer). I would have liked it if the Easy Vape would have contained more detailed instructions. Overall, I am satisfied with my purchase. Just a word of friendly advice when it is brown it is done. Hey, hey, hey use Easy Vape everyday!!!!
Gets the job done! Definitely a great investment. I wouldnt suggest have more than 4 people on it. I experimented with different temps and found a nice medium at 240-250 degrees for great results (after its preheated at 400 degrees)
I am very happy with my Easy Vape. I am especially impressed with the customer service from the Easy Vape. My Easy Vape arrived very quickly from Overstock.com and all was well except that the glass mouthpiece was cracked. I called the Easy Vape number provided (not Overstock) thye were very nice and told me that a replacement mouthpiece will be mailed out. Got it within a couple of days. From reading previous reviews I already knew they would take care of it. Great Company and great product once you get the hang of it.
first off it does come with a whip. i couldnt find any info as to whether or not it did. other than that what you see is what you get. worth it
This vape is the bomb. I much prefer it to my vapir no2. I can't believe I got it so cheap. A+++
Wouldn't recommend because Im not a fan of cheap vaporizers. This one works a lot better than the lat one I tried. For the price its a good deal.
I really enjoyed this product. It's pretty good for its price. If I had to change anything it's be a diffrent style of the bowl. Just because some little bits of your plant won't stick and fall into the iron and burn it defeating the purpose useing a vaporizer.
Good quality product for the $ compared to price of other units. Can be used more slowly than bad type units and prolong "burn" of material. I go for 280 degrees or materials can ignite. Vapor draws nicely through hose, clean taste and no carbon or cleaning. Material elftover is dry and browner. Finding right temp is key and easy to do so. I start on high and then come down to needed temp. long cord and neat lights. Good thinking.
I have had this little guy for almost a year now and it still works great! It looks really cool & stylish, too (if you are into that sort of thing). After sharing it with some friends one evening, two of them went and bought their own from overstock the very next day, they were that impressed! Seriously great deal. Highly recommended if you are in the market for a vaporizer.
Great price. Very easy to use and highly recommended!

President Barack Obama on Monday nominated Gina McCarthy to replace Lisa Jackson as Environmental Protection Agency administrator.
McCarthy, who currently heads the EPA's air and radiation office, has vowed "not to sit around and wait for congressional action" when issuing environmental regulations.
On May 1, 2010, in the keynote address for the Green Education Celebration at University of Massachusetts in Boston, McCarthy said she did not go to Washington to wait for congressional action and she said she did not intend to do so in the future.
"I love listening to Sen. Kerry. I love listening to Congressman Markey, because they talk funny and they talk real," said McCarthy. "They tell it like it is and they make things happen. I am so proud that we have them in office so they can push us to face reality that one needs to face and to move forward with legislation that is absolutely essential.

My daughter passed away two weeks after having the gardasil and meningitis shots. We are waiting for the toxicology report from the medical examiners office to see what the cause of death was. She was very healthy prior to the shots, had just had excellent bloodwork return from the lab. She had a job and had just started driver's ed.

I received one dose of Gardasil when I was 17. Several days later my mouth broke out in many painful sores-white blistering sores. My doctor recommended that I not take any more of the vaccine.

My grandaughter received 2 vaccines the last one being early December. Since then she has had no period. This is the 4th month, and she was very regular before that. All the doctors say this vaccine has nothing to do with missing periods, but it is too much of a coincidence for so many girls to have the same problem.

I do NOT reccomend this vaccine. This vaccine was very painful, the most painful that I've ever received, worse than the penicillin vaccine I received in my buttocks in the military. Many of my symptoms appeared a month or more after the vaccine is given. Approximately 30 days after I received my first dosage of Gardasil, I developed a quarter-sized lump at the injection site, which was v ... Show Full Comment

TOWN OF UNION (WKOW) -- A suspect is wounded after exchanging gunfire with an Eau Claire County deputy.
The Eau Claire County Sheriff's Office responded to a domestic violence occurrence in the Town of Union Monday night. The sheriff's office says it has responded to the same home 12 times in the past two years.
While deputies were on location a male exited the home carrying an assault type rifle and fired shots at a deputy. There was an exchange of gunfire and the male suspect was injured and taken to a local hospital.
The deputy is on administrative leave while the City of Eau Claire Police Department investigates the incident.

Bexar County at the Toll-Crossroads!
Commissioner Tommy Adkisson
December 10, 2009
Veteran State Senator and Chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee stated just this past October, "As Chairman of the Senate Committee on Transportation and Homeland Security, I can attest that the only near-term answer to the transportation funding dilemma we are facing is to raise and index the gas tax. Stopping the diversion of gas tax revenues for other legislative purposes, as is long overdue, will not alone solve the problem.
"The motor fuels (gas) tax is a credible source of transportation funding for at least the next 20 years. Based upon careful study, it is by far the most fiscally conservative way to build our Texas roads. The persons who most often criticize it are politicians doing their level best to avoid any sort of "tax increase" on their political record. Where, fellow drivers, is the statesmanship in that?"
The real problem with tolling existing roads is the never-ending tolling and noncompete agreements that preclude the alternative free routes which compete with the toll roads and diminish their financial viability. Related to the noncompete agreements and equally unkind are the comprehensive development agreements (CDA's). If we at the MPO were to pass the proposed Long-Range Plan for our transportation system's Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) the list below is just a sampling of the roadways that are proposed for tolling:
- Hwy 90 (from 410 to 211)
- I-10 (from 410 to Kendall County line)
- Loop 1604 (just about the entire loop, not just the north half)
- 281 (from 1604 to Comal County line)
- I-37 (from 410 south to Atascosa County line)
- Bandera Rd (from 410 to 1604 still appears despite amendment to remove it)
- interchange at I-10 & 1604
- interchange at 281 & 1604 (northbound ramps)
- interchange at 1604 & 151
- interchange at 1604 & 90
- interchange at 1604 & 1-35
- interchange at I-35 & 410
- Kelly Pkwy/Spur 371 (US 90 to SH 16)
- ALL of I-35 (from Atascosa to Comal County line)
A retired mechanical engineer curious about methods of funding Long-Range plans of other MPO's took time to call the Metropolitan Planning Organization Executive Directors of the below listed cities. The bigger city MPO's did not respond to his calls. The MPOS below are programming their Long-Range Plans using traditional funding methods (gas taxes, registration fees and state bond monies, etc.), not tolling and CDAs. Furthermore, they do not agree with the premise that there will be no money for new roads from traditional funding sources come 2012 since the 2012 budget has neither drafted nor adopted yet.
- Waco
- Amarillo
- Abilene
- Lubbock
- Killeen
- Wichita Falls
- Bryan College Station
Summoning the courage to properly steward the financing of Texas roads and long overdue mass transit with conventional methods must be a top priority!

By NORA HERTEL, Associated Press
PIERRE, S.D. (AP) _ A South Dakota House committee has approved a proposed constitutional amendment that would allow Deadwood casinos to add some games.
The State Affairs Committee voted 10-1 for a measure that would put the proposal to a statewide vote on the November ballot.
Deadwood casinos now offer slot machines, poker and blackjack. If the Legislature decides to put the proposal on the ballot, voters would decide whether to let the casinos offer roulette, keno and craps.
Supporters say the added games are needed so Deadwood and tribal casinos can compete with casinos in other states. They say craps and roulette also attract a younger crowd than the current games.
The bill's only opponent, Dale Bartscher of Family Heritage Alliance, argues that gambling should not be expanded in South Dakota.

Tonight the Great Falls City Commission will have some big decisions to make regarding our money. The Great Falls Public Works has a proposal to the city commission that can ultimately save residents money.
"We're presenting is a lease of property that actually the sanitation division at the Public Works owns and it's 3 1/2 miles north of the Manchester exit on Interstate 15," explains Public Works Director, Jim Rearden.
Since the Federal Government canceled the conservation program, the Great Falls Public Works is turning to the city commission to see if great falls can use the land.
"We purchased the property since 1991 and since '93 it's been in Conservation Reserve Program or CRP programs so we had gotten an annual lease on that property, but that program expired for governmental agencies and so we are looking at other ways to produce revenue for the property," says Rearden.
One of the suggestions is to add a sanitation landfill to the property. Rearden says if the City Commission approves a new lease this will keep customers sanitation disposal rates at a lower cost.
"We haven't utilized such since then we have had long term contract with Montana Waste Systems for a disposal for waste within the city, but it's there if at some point we need it," says Rearden.
Also on the agenda for the City Commission is a hearing to create a flat standard rate for pet adoptions, to make adopting much easier.

The Register-News
---- — MT. VERNON – Local teen Jacob Williamson wasn't entirely sure he wanted to pursue a career in mechanical engineering.
But now after working for over three months at National Railway's Mt. Vernon facility, he has gained valuable real-world experience and is confident he's on the right career path.
"After this experience, seeing how it really is in the workforce, I want to pursue it," said Williamson, 17, a senior at Mt. Vernon Township High School. "It's just stuff you can't learn in a classroom. It's hands-on."
Williamson is one of two MVTHS seniors who are the first to participate in a new cooperative placement program run by the Mt. Vernon Area Vocational Center. The other student is James Campise, 17.
As part of the program, both students began working at National Railway this June. During the summer, they worked full-time, but now that school has started they work for part of the day.
The goal is to give these students a taste of what it's really like to work in an actual engineering position, said Robert Knutson, director of the Mt. Vernon Area Vocational Center.
At this point, the program is available to Jefferson County high school juniors and seniors enrolled in Project Lead The Way courses at the AVC.
Knutson added that the program is part of a long-term effort to encourage more students to return to Mt. Vernon after college to work for local companies.
"Quite frankly, we have the talent in this area," Knutson said. "It was just a matter of providing the opportunity for the student to learn those skills."
With the program, Williamson has been heavily involved in redesigning parts for National Railway's next locomotives. Working with a mentor, he has used 3D software to help modify drawings for parts that need to be redesigned.
Williamson said the placement program will definitely give him a leg-up when it comes to job applications and scholarships.
"I think it's going to set me apart in the future," Williamson said. "It's definitely a huge bonus. I didn't waste the time pursuing something I didn't know what it was really like, so college-wise it really helped me see that I for sure wanted to do this."
Campise is also working in mechanical engineering at National Railway, using software to aid in the design process.
"This helps a lot," Campise said. "It gets me used to how the work would be and I get better knowledge on how people act and what they need and what they expect of you."
Mike Cross, director of design engineering for National Railway, said it can be hard for local companies to recruit skilled workers given that Mt. Vernon's labor pool is much smaller than the one in Chicago or in other big cities.
But with the AVC program and similar training programs offered by local community colleges, area young people are getting valuable exposure to companies like National Railway, Cross said.
"It's worked out very well for us," Cross said. "Both James and Jacob have proven to be pretty capable."
After college, Williamson said he will consider coming back to Mt. Vernon to continue working for National Railway. If he does, that would be the "icing on the cake," Knutson said.
"He's more likely to stay and be vested in that company," Knutson said. "Our students have never let us down when we've provided the correct instruction, equipment, and curriculum."
The Area Vocational Center is looking to partner up with additional local companies to offer more placement opportunities.
For more information, contact Knutson at 246-5602, or via email at email@example.com.

So I learned to climb in the rockies and recently started climbing on the coast and I was wondering if its bad to get your gear wet with saltwater? I accidentally got a locking biner soaked and now the gate sticks open so I've stopped using it. I'm not sure if that is abnormal... Does anyone know much about this? And on ropes, I cant imagine the dried salt is good for soft gear (ropes, slings, harnesses). Also, is it worse on a dry rope vs. non-dry? Thanks! Mike
Did you try rinsing the locker off with warm, fresh water, while exercising the gate? Might just need a rinse...
Yeah I was climbing on a cliff in NZ and got hit by massive spray from storm swell, then forgot to rinse. Two days later cams were slow to budge. I rinsed them in warm water while working the action. After drying I lubricated with Metolius Camlube and they were good as new.
Yea, I actually got two biners wet and I rinsed them both and one is better but both of them are still not quite 100%. Maybe I'll try again.
wash in warm soapy water, rinse and use a wax based lube
Saltwater will not directly affect nylon. Nylon is pretty careless when it comes to mild salt. However, aluminum does care about salt. If the salt comes into contact with a non-anodized section of a carabiner, it could cause exfoliation corrosion. Lastly, although salt does not directly damage nylon, salt present in the rope can make its way onto other metal objects that you use in climbing. So it is for those reasons that you should wash any climbing related component that comes into direct contact with salt water.
Thanks a lot!
Rather than start a new thread to ask a very similar question, i figured i would ask here... I set up my gibbon surfline over the pool i lifeguard at...it was a pretty bad set up as it was my first attempt rigging a line there and (to no surprise) everything got completely soaked (webbing, ratchet, slings, biners. so the question is: would CHLORINE damage webbing/hardware? as soon as i got home i rinsed all my gear with fresh water and it is now hanging up to dry in my basement next to a De-humidifier. none of it smells like chlorine so i think it is clean. any opinions? Thanks in advance! -Tim
hey Tim, I actually did the same thing over a pool once and the webbing got pretty wet in the middle but it held up well after that and I used it on various highlines for over a year. There was no visible damage and I couldnt feel anything wrong with it and I still use it for slacklining. So I cant really give you any advice other than, Ive done the same thing without incident.
Thanks! it all seems to be fine. everything is dry and all the hardware is still functioning. -Tim

I joined Green Bandwagon to comment on the Darius Miles signing a while back, and dropped in to check out recent comments on Oden. But then, I looked around.
I just wanted to commend you guys for an excellent site. Good analysis, thoughtful comments, good participation, a good place to visit.
Being a homer, I think Blazers' Edge is better, but I won't even try to come up with a list of debatable reasons why. You guys have it good here. Congratulations, and best of luck until the Finals, when you'll run into the buzz-saw of a Portland team on the rise (ok, maybe not until next year, but it's coming).

Things have been far from easy for my big girl this past few months. She's gone from being the centre of all her families universe to sharing the limelight with her little sister. She's started nursery and made me unbelievably proud by taking it in her stride. She's developed interests and can list her favourite things. She's just amazing…
She's massively in to Disney films at the moment, especially anything with good songs. She knows all the words (or atleast makes up awesome alternatives) and loves to sit on the sofa singing along. This is genuinely a picture of her mid way through 'Mother Knows Best' from Tangled… God I love her!
This girl is in to hats in a big way. It was beautiful weather at the zoo a few weekends ago but she had to wear her fleece hat. She also has a straw hat, a cowboy hat, numerous crowns and full access to my hats. Lucky girl.
Baking, cooking, actually anything that involves stirring and being allowed to put the oven on is top of Frankie's weekend activities. I love baking with her.
More singing… more Tangled
I love how much she loves Georgie. She's definately realised that she's here to stay and has become a teeny bit jealous but she still adores her. It's beautiful to watch!
Princess Francesca. She's convinced she's a Princess and I'm more than happy to play along. She spends around 90% of her time in her 'pretty skirt' that my Aunt bought her and loves to 'swish'.
Just look her… Beaut!

Who Needs Republicans?
by bored now, Wed Jun 03, 2009 at 09:40:26 AM EDT
No New Taxes. Smaller Government. Severe Cuts in the Social Safety Net. These are key staples of the Republican Agenda.
They also happen to be the central tenets of the state budget pushed through by Speaker Michael Madigan. Just because.
This isn't simply a profound failure of political leadership, but also a sharp rebuke to core Democratic values. Note that the political Machine that Madigan heads isn't affected. It's the poor, the children, the elderly, those at risk in our society that will bear the brunt of Madigan's power play. COMEX Democrats and the Machine retain their jobs, their perks and their place of power.

I had concerns about the sizing, being I am very tall, with long arms. To my delight, the jacket (XL) fit me perfectly. The quality is top-notch, and the leather is soft and supple to the touch! I can't wait for season opener for Cowboy Action Shooting competition. Oh, and the price? WAY less than very similar jackets I've looked at the last several months!
Appears cheap looking for the money
Since it is way to big, I will be sending it back. I am just waiting for the shipping frenzy to slow down.
My grandson wanted this jacket and it was more than I expected as far a quality. Great place to shop on line.
a little lite weight, but OK

Here's the anti-dote.
We're really hating on Katy Perry this month - you'll have to wait for the September issue to find out why and see just how many gold stars we don't give her.
However, you can rely on a faggy New Yorker to partially right some wrongs. Max Vernon has covered her US number 1 and instead of Katy's pillow bursting, frilly faux lesbianism for straight boys (notice how she never actually kisses a girl in her vid?) here's a shoddy homemade queer version, with real girls eating their make-up. As Max does.
