Abstract—The performance of both serial and parallel implementations of matrix multiplication is highly sensitive to memory system behavior. False sharing and cache conflicts cause traditional column-major or row-major array layouts to incur high variability in memory system performance as matrix size varies. This paper investigates the use of recursive array layouts to improve performance and reduce variability. Previous work on recursive matrix multiplication is extended to examine several recursive array layouts and three recursive algorithms: standard matrix multiplication and the more complex algorithms of Strassen and Winograd. While recursive layouts significantly outperform traditional layouts (reducing execution times by a factor of 1.2-2.5) for the standard algorithm, they offer little improvement for Strassen's and Winograd's algorithms. For a purely sequential implementation, it is possible to reorder computation to conserve memory space and improve performance between 10 percent and 20 percent. Carrying the recursive layout down to the level of individual matrix elements is shown to be counterproductive; a combination of recursive layouts down to canonically ordered matrix tiles instead yields higher performance. Five recursive layouts with successively increasing complexity of address computation are evaluated and it is shown that addressing overheads can be kept in control even for the most computationally demanding of these layouts.

This food co-op has a good selection of solely craft beer (not an AB in sight) at reasonable prices. A fair amount six packs and a good selection of bombers as well. They also have a decent selection of more expensive beers you don't find as often in this area.
If you're lucky enough to be there when you see an employee stocking shelves, more than likely they have a fair knowledge of their product so don't hesitate to ask. Otherwise you'll get normal grocery help.
This is definitely one of the few places around you can get some other-than-grocery-store labels. The constantly rotating and sometimes expanding stock makes this a frequent spot to check-in and see what's new.

This is a really pleasant store, extremely clean and well-lit with skylights. The selection is not large, but it's well chosen. I always find something interesting here. I particularly liked the 32 oz growlers they have from Kulshan, three different brews. They have local beers as well as some other less common Washington and Oregon beers. There always seem to be some unusual imports as well.
They also have a bunch of allegedly organic and low-gluten brews, if you're into that. I didn't seek out a staff person for any questions, but everyone seems really polite and eager to please.
It's easy to find if you are coming up the main street north from Fairhaven. The new location of Aslan Brewing is at the end of the next block north to make another local stop.

The Food Coop has been steadily improving their selection over the last couple of years. A recent visit had a nice selection of local, regional, national and international brands. Boundary Bay, Green Flash, Elysian, Pike, Beer Valley, Laughing Dog, Deschutes and many more are on the shelves. A recent visit found a vertical of '07, '08 and '09 Pike Old Bawdy Barleywine 22s for $10 a bottle.
You can also grab food to go from the deli, or buy food to take home to cook. I often grab the small fruit pies, very tasty. If you're in the area, or just visiting, the coop is a worthy stop.

« Lead Me On: When Confidence Cracks | Main | What Intimate Cohabitation Means for Ministry »October 24, 2013
Women Leaders Are Tempted by Adultery
How hard is it for a woman in ministry to fall into sexual sin such as adultery? Easier than you think. How many are tempted? More than we know, because no one talks about it due to the shame that surrounds the subject. The problem with the lack of a safe place to be honest about these struggles means there is an opening for the underground schemes of immorality to take the lives of great leaders in our midst.
For that reason, I am about to tell you about my own struggles with temptation to sexual sin in leadership, in an attempt to bring out into the open what many feel they need to hide. I have told my story openly at women's conferences and retreats, but I told myself I would never write about it due to the fear that my story would get into the hands of those who could destroy my life. I realize now the deception shame has. It tells you that if you keep your secrets, you are safe. Oh but friend, you are far from safe in secrecy. You are bait. I pray my choice to be brave and put my story out there will give you courage to tell your story if you are struggling, and the brave courage to listen to a soul in torment without judgment if she approaches you.
I have always told my husband that it wouldn't take a tall, dark, handsome man to lead me astray—only one who would pay attention to me if times were rough at home. Because my husband and I are such opposites (who truly complete one another), our "becoming one" has produced much friction over the last 14 years of our marriage. There have been seasons of enjoying the fruit of our endurance and seasons where we could hardly face one another. Add two young boys, one who has behavioral challenges, and home sometimes becomes a hard place to be. Interestingly, both times I have been tempted toward adultery have been when times have been hard at home and just before I've been on the brink of a breakthrough spiritually, with my family, or in ministry. I can say I've never committed the act of adultery, but both times, overcoming the temptation was extremely hard.
The first time was when I was writing my book, Culture Rebel. I clicked well with a man in my sphere of work. I was struggling with my thought life. All I could think of were Jesus' words "You have heard the commandment that says, 'You must not commit adultery.' But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart" (Matthew 5:27-28). Those words haunted me. I knew I had to get a grip, but the force of lust was strong after my heart and I was becoming weak from fighting it.
My breakthrough finally came when I was at a conference listening to one of my favorite leaders, Matthew Barnett. I was in such torment, I could hardly hear him speak. Shame was after my mind: "How could you think such thoughts?" "You're a dirty woman. A poser. You think God can use you? No one would ever want you if they knew what goes on in the dark chambers of your mind."
Then Barnett said something that hit my heart like a sword: "You are called to be dangerous." That's all I heard. It was like all the shame and lustful thoughts were slapped right off of me. I was awakened to the awareness that I was called to something far greater, and it liberated my spirit. It became the subtitle on the back of my book: "You are not called to be desperate, you are called to be dangerous." Through this I have come to realize how many souls find themselves drowning in the torment of lust and shame because they have lost sight of God's vision for who they really are. I have had the opportunity to talk to various women who have opened up about their struggles after hearing my story at conferences.
The second time I found myself in the midst of temptation was when my family was experiencing a very dark hour. My husband and I weren't connecting, our toddler had us in constant panic mode with his shenanigans, and the pressure from our oldest son's behavior was taking its toll on us physically and mentally. I was tired, unhappy, and feeling ripped off, excluded from happiness. I found myself looking for excitement, freedom, and something to numb my pain. Interesting how temptation can smell weakness. Along came the opportunity that no one would have ever known about.
I wish I could say I was strong in that moment, but I wasn't. It's a miracle I made it through, really. Every day I remember, I am reminded of God's grace and how much I need it. Going through these experiences has made me much more aware of how easy it is to fall past temptation. I have compassion for those who have been tempted or have committed adultery. I'm not shocked when I hear of another great leader who has stumbled. I have found out personally how easy it is.
I would like to highlight some learnings I have picked up on the floor while I was groveling at Jesus' feet, feeling like a filthy rag. I would like to share them with you so we can create communities of resilient leaders who can withstand temptation, rather than become yet another one we hear about through Christian gossip.
• Don't be shocked if and when this happens to you. If it shocks you, you will fear it. When you fear it, it will control you and you will be less likely to escape. All you will be able to think about is how rotten and filthy you are. Your eyes will quickly shift from an upward gaze on our Lord, who is our redemption, to yourself. As a result, you will cower in shame and will be more likely to hide from others rather than run to them for accountability and support. Don't be shocked. Like I said, being tempted with sexual sin is common.
• Remember it's not wrong to be tempted. You are not sinning when you're tempted, so don't give in, thinking you've already lost the battle. When tempted, fight, and don't fight in your own strength. Fight with friends beside you and Christ's truth wrapped around your heart.
• Adultery or sexual sin is never really about sex; it's our attempt at self-redemption, to gain control over our lives, to take on ourselves only what Christ can do. You can say it's running from Christ rather than to Christ. You need to ask yourself, "What am I numbing?" "What am I running from?" "What am I trying to redeem?" There's always a root that's not about sex or even attraction. Get to the root with good friends and the Holy Spirit as your guide.
• When tempted, there is a call from your spirit to run back to your first love. No man, no romance, no marriage, no family, no ministry, nothing will ever be able to heal us, nurture us, love us, and embrace us the way we need—only the arms of our Father God. Nothing. We need to run to our sacred romance and keep it at the core of our lives. He is our everything.
• We need to create open spaces for honest communication without judgment. Our silence in the matter only causes more casualties of men and women who felt they were alone in their struggle. We need accountable, safe relationships with people who will listen without judgment, but also hold us accountable. My friend Richie Seltzer says, "Accountability is more about keeping one another accountable to one's destiny." I wouldn't have made it without some amazing girls in my life who listened to me, loved me, but also made me come up with an action plan that would protect my steps and keep me on my journey toward the destiny God has marked for me.
No more proverbial rug. It's time for us to bring the issue out into the open, where temptation and shame are revealed for what they are. When we bring our struggles to the light, they flee. Be strong, beloveds. How hard is it for a ministry leader (or any human for that matter) to fall into sexual temptation or sin? Very easy. But with safe places for accountability and support, we can see more overcome and thrive past it.

Thank-you for writing this very important article and sharing your personal journey. I am sure this will help many women in ministry.
Thanks for sharing this, Connie. Isolation is a trick of the enemy to keep us defeated and that is why it is so important that we are having these conversations within safe communities in the church.
Brave and needed, Connie. Good for you, Canuck sister, for opening yourself so that other women can allow themselves to open up to God and heal.
Brave. Thought-provoking. Honest. True. Universal. We need to hear this message. I couldn't agree more. Thank you for your honesty. I've had my own temptations as well, and I'm grateful for the friends in my life who love me unconditionally and give me a place to be honest. Their very presence in my life is an accountability. I pray I could be this kind of friend as well for those who need to be honest about their own temptations. Jesus meets us in our weakness and offers grace. And reveals what's underneath the rock, the source of our temptations and addictions. He is the only one who can fills those holes. Thanks again for your courage. May God bless you and keep you!
Thank you for this timely article. We are tempted in our weakest areas, when we know that there are others out there struggling with us through the same issues, it helps to make us stronger.
Matthew Barnett was right, God is going to using you a dangerous way, to take back territory for God, and allow women to win the battle of this temptation, as well as others.
An incredible and insightful article. Thanks for revealing what is often hidden. i needed to hear this
Thank You
thank you for this. I've been wondering WHO and WHEN this will come out into the open. it's so real. a sister once tried vulnerable and the husband (hers and mine) were nearly too scared to believe her...!
May God bless and protect you. So much truth spoken here. Thank you for being so open and honest and for paving the way for others.
The author said, "More than we know, because no one talks about it due to the shame that surrounds the subject." May I suggest it is also due to sexist notions and denial of female libido by a lot of evangelical, Baptist, and conservative Christans - where they mistakenly belive that only MEN are into sex, only men are "visually wired," while it is said repeatedly from most pulpits, that women are NOT "visually wired," they all hate sex, and that they prefer cuddling, knitting and being EMOTIONALLY intimate to anything sexual. The truth is that most Christian women want sex, like sex, and get turned on by photos of shirtless, muscular movie actors.
Christians, especially the males, are reluctant to acknowledge that women are sexual...except hypocritically, they like to assume Unmarried Christian women are harlots eager to bed everyone, so they advise married men (and single males) to stay away from them.
But usually, the evangelical / fundamentalist / Baptist / Christian assumption seems to be women are non-sexual and non-visually oriented.
Someone, please inform all the women (including the Christian women) posting photos of hunky, shirtless Channing Tatum (movie star) on Tumblr that they are not "visually wired" or "visually stimulated." They are only supposed to be posting photos of tea kettles, rainbows, and sun sets.
The story
My wife of 36 years made the choice of her free will to commit adultery. She is a leader of women at our church. I wish I could have sent her this 2 years ago. We had a business neighbor that became friends with us. Then he would stop by and give my wife a big hug and visit with her several times per week.
I kept telling her that it was wrong to be doing that type of communication, especially when she found reasons stop having sex with her husband. I would be more direct and become louder in my displeasure of her and him doing this together.
My wife now says I pushed her into his arms and the affair began. 2 years later, the affair is continuing and I am at a loss as what to do. After 2 years of telling her it was wrong and directly confronting her, the truth came out via a pre-surgery confession by the married man to his wife.
3 weeks later and she has told our adult kids. Our son was had his wedding on the weekend prior to her disclosure to me. The other adulterer had his surgery on Tuesday. His daughter was told by his wife, the daughter came to the office and confronted my wife. My wife finally admitted what I had known for the past 2 years of lies and sneaking around for their sexual encounters.
My mother in law died after hanging on to life to be at my sons wedding. That lady lived a very Godly and Holy life and never knew the truth about her daughter.
The key to the story from a husbands perspective - men build up frustration when the wife refuses intimacy. The man may become upset at the wife for that and other issues. My advice to married men and women is to stay close in physical intimacy whether you are in the mode or not. That means sex with your spouse 3 to 7 times a week.
I am not sure I want the marriage to continue because my wife is "in love" with another woman's husband. This fantasy works because there is no responsible aspects of life for the adulterers'. Only a blissful physical piece (spelling correct here).
I commend your courage!
@ Elise Daly Parker: Thank you for speaking up; I have been searching the web for something like this.
I am tired of reading how Christian marriages go wrong because the "wife" refuses to please her husband regularly so the husband searches for pleasure elsewhere.
Someone needs to publicly address the fact that women like sex and some wives want it even more often than their husbands and they are equally tempted to start looking elsewhere.
Thank you!

Mary Jo Perino of Lex18 reports that Terrence Jones has signed a deal worth $2.5 million in his first two seasons with Houston as the 18th overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft. Former Iowa St. Cyclones star Royce White has also signed his contract, worth $2.8 million:
As the 16th pick of the draft, [Royce] White's deal is worth $2.8 million in the first two guaranteed seasons of his rookie contract, with the team holding options for a third and fourth season. Jones, the 18th player taken in the draft, is signed for $2.5 million in the first two seasons.
So the Houston Rockets now have a pair of very unusual forwards on the roster. Both are great ballhandlers and great passers. If nothing else, Houston will have what we call "options" in the forward spot for the coming couple of years, although Houston seems too loaded with forwards not to make some moves in that position.
Jeremy Lamb, formerly of the Connecticut Huskies and Houston's highest draft pick at #12 is also expected to sign his contract soon.

Gasoline prices are still hovering around $4.20 a gallon. It's causing many Hoosier drivers to become frustrated but several experts are saying that those prices may soon begin to drop. They claim gas prices have hit the ceiling and should begin to decrease as we inch closer to Memorial Day.
"It's like $50 a week. It's ridiculous," one driver said.
"That's where my whole paycheck goes. It sucks," another lamented.
The people selling the gas said they understand.
"Crude oil went from $80/barrel in February to $110 a barrel in April for really no justification whatsoever," Senior Petroleum Analyst Scot Imus said.
Central Indiana topped out on $4.29 a gallon May 3. That's just 4.5-cents short of the record set back in 2008. Now some, including the senior petroleum analyst for gasbuddy.com, think we've hit the ceiling and will trend lower for the next few months.
Crude prices are more volatile now than they used to be. Investors and speculators have turned the commodity markets into a big casino.
"Goldman Sachs says that speculation interests are adding about $30 a barrel and I think that's conservative," Imus said.
Petroleum suppliers agree with Imus.
"Oh, absolutely, absolutely! The commodities market is not just speculation either. They're looking at what's happening with weather, what's happening with supply and demand," one supplier said.
It's gotten so bad, gas station owners are now using the R-word. They're asking for more regulation from the government.
"We think that's a commodity that should be under greater scrutiny," Imus said. "There should be some speed bumps brought in, there should be greater transparency, and there should be position hold limits."

What's up guys, just wondering what the ideal scenario would be for this Bulls team regarding the Bobcats pickswap. I think the best option would be to swap for the 11th pick in this year's draft. I actually foresee the Bobcats being a mid-tier team by 2015, 2016.
The pickswap details are below:
2014 — Owed first-rounder (top-10 protected in 2014, top-8 protected in 2015, unprotected in 2016) from Charlotte Bobcats (Tyrus Thomas).

Minnesota's first ever, regulated wolf hunt is underway. Already 74 of the 400 tags have been filled. The DNR says they'll likely hit that 400 mark. Which initially, they didn't think was possible. Valley News Live found out why the state is regulating the wolf population and what that means for deer hunters.
First, wolves made it off of the endangered species list and before you know it Minnesota is having it's first wolf hunt. The wolf population has managed to stay at about 3000 across Minnesota for over 10 years.
"The fact they remained at that number for so long indicates there maybe isn't any room for anymore growth." says Nicole Lee, the lead animal keeper at the Red River Zoo in Fargo.
Lee says wolves have made a comeback in Minnesota but there's likely no where for them to go. Wolves can cover up to 100 square miles of land looking for a meal. A meal Lee says wouldn't appeal to most hunters, "They're going to look for something that's weaker, younger, older, or has some type of issue." Basically wolves are looking for the weakest link.
So what does the this wolf hunt mean for Minnesota deer hunters? the DNR says don't expect to see that many more deer in the woods next year because of the wolf hunt. They estimate they'll take about 400 wolves through the hunt this year. And each wolf only eats about 15 deer every year. Start adding that up, that means we're going to see an extra 6000 deer out in the woods next year. Which in the grand scheme of things, isn't all that many.
Total deer numbers across Minnesota are right around 1 million. 6000 deer taken out by 400 wolves all of a sudden sounds like a drop in the bucket.
"I don't think people realize how infrequently wolves actually consume food. They see a wolf as a predator, carnivore, hunter. And they automatically assume they're out there making a kill everyday." Explains Lee at the display of gray wolves in Fargo. The wolves here only get fed about once a week which would be pretty typical if they were in the wild.
Meanwhile folks at the DNR say they hear stories all the time from hunters who think wolves are effecting deer populations. But more often than not they say, it's just not the case.
The Minnesota DNR has established a minimum population for wolves statewide. If it drops to under 1600 wolves, there's a plan to increase the numbers.

My posting has slowed over the past month as I've enjoyed putting more time toward writing and revising my book. I did want to share with you another great parenting discovery, though. Thanks to Stacy of MamaOm, I just finished reading Hold On to Your Kids by Dr. Gordon Neufeld and Dr. Gabor Mate. The book makes a compelling case against the peer-oriented culture which has grown to dominate over the past few decades, especially as it pertains to parents losing their hold on kids as the primary nurturing and guiding force until they reach maturity. It goes as far as to claim that true maturity isn't actually occurring among those who are taking their cues solely from their fellow immature peers. It's the blind leading the blind, with disastrous results.
In today's culture which places a high value on peer interaction along with less time available for families to spend together, it's more difficult for parents to remain the primary orienting force in their children's lives. Children are encouraged to socialize with other children early and often. High student: teacher ratios in daycares and schools encourage attachment to peers instead of teachers. The extended family of loving adults that used to be the norm in children's lives is now the exception, and our mobile society creates isolation instead of community. Add to this mix the effects of media which perpetuates the culture of cool, and the result is that it's simply much, much harder to parent today than it was a few decades ago, and it's far easier for children to turn to each other to meet their attachment needs.
So … what does all this mean to me, the mother of a three-year-old sensitive child? Actually, the implications are pretty direct. As a sensitive child, Lucas absorbs everyone's energy. He mimics everything and everyone. It already appears that he's very susceptible to influence by his peers, coming home from preschool with new behaviors and mannerisms all the time, to my enormous frustration. He's also sensitive to even the most subtle withdrawal of my affection, and this drives him to attach more quickly to others who will fill the void. If he's around his peers when we've been having a rough time with our mother-son relationship, any authority and influence I may have had disappears and all hell breaks loose. If this keeps up, I'll lose him completely by middle school.
As you already know if you are a regular reader, I've struggled with how to handle these difficulties. Mainstream parenting philosophy dictates that firmer boundaries and punitive measures are necessary to nip negative behavior in the bud. Attachment theory suggests the opposite. I've waffled between the two, leaning toward attachment and then chickening out in the face of parental and societal pressure. Intuition always leads me back to attachment, though. And when I doubt myself, I end up with a book like this one to give me the support I need.
The following is a quote from the book that seemed to sum up the prescription for me:
- Playing more with him and watching him play, especially when he hasn't asked.
- "Spending time" at bedtime, (laying next to him until he falls asleep) even if it's inconvenient for me.
- Satisfying his need for closeness – saying yes unless there is a really good reason to say no – even if it means going with him every time he needs to go to the bathroom or find a sock or wash his hands.
- Allowing our daily "quiet time" to be spent in the same room together.
- Being unconditionally loving in my tone and words. Reaffirm that I love him no matter what.
- Do what it takes to manage my own frustration in healthy ways (exercise, meditate, sleep, etc.) so I don't take it out on him.
This book was just the right wake-up call to get me back on track - again.

ALBANY, GA (WALB) - The victim of a car break-in says Albany police didn't do enough to solve the crime, even though he tried to help them.
His belongings were stolen from the same place where a suspected thief was gunned down this week. Chase McReynolds says he understands why a gunman took justice into his own hands. The Warner Robins man was in Albany on business three weeks ago when a thief stole thousands of dollars of tools.
Albany Police say there have been four reported car break-ins at Comfort Suites since January. What happened across the parking lot Tuesday morning at the Quality Inn got the attention of Chase McReynolds whose work truck was broken into here three weeks ago. After what he's been through trying to track down the man who stole from him, he understands why John Underwood used his gun.
As a generator technician Chase McReynolds travels from New Orleans to Jacksonville and everywhere in between. Three weeks ago while he worked in Albany, someone broke into his truck and stole tools, a GPS device, and a cell phone.
"This was the window they actually broke out and they just popped the lock open and at that point they ransacked all the shelving and stuff to try and look for stuff that was more expensive. Tools were in this area, they grabbed all of them," said McReynolds.
Hoping to catch the crook, he left his cell phone on. His wife even talked to the thief who admitted to stealing Chase's tools and told her there was nothing they could do. They hoped Albany police might help.
"I gave all of the information over to the police department. All you have to do is track it, make a phone call, do whatever, the suspect keeps using the phone, used it like it was his regular phone," said McReynolds.
In the nearly three weeks that the suspect had the phone. Chase left it on and that suspect racked up nearly 800 phone calls, but not one of them was from the Albany police.
"They haven't tried to do anything with it. That was actually coming from the detective on the case, he hasn't done anything with the phone," said McReynolds.
McReynolds says Verizon told him earlier this week they hadn't heard from Albany Police. Police will only say they are now working with Verizon to try to locate the suspect even though the phone has been turned off. Chase is pretty sure he'll never see those tools again and after hearing what happened Tuesday morning in the parking lot of the Quality Inn he sympathizes with the man who did take action to stop someone he thought was a thief.
"What do you do nobody else is doing anything to stop this so I feel for the person who is in jail now, he's just trying to take care of business," said McReynolds.
Albany Police want you to know they've stepped up efforts at hotels throughout the city with special patrol details that have specifically targeted hotel parking lots for the last several months in an effort to prevent car break-ins. They're also actively pursuing Chase's case as well.
Chase McReynolds told us all of his more expensive tools were engraved with his initials JCM to help identify them in case they ever were stolen.

Think Tank Photo Skin 50 V2.0
|Accommodates wide angle and standard zoom lenses with hood in shooting position including the 16 - 35 f/2.8, 17 - 40 f/4, 24 - 70 f/2.8
|Main compartment can be divided to hold multiple items. Inner pocket for accessories.
|Front Zippered Pocket for Lens Cap and Accessories
|Every modular component can be locked on a belt to keep bag in place on any of our camera belts.
|Components can "Rotate or Lock" on the belt. To rotate, place the white plastic tang behind the belt while attaching the component. Rotating the component prevents the weight of the equipment from creating a pressure point on the hip by being stationary for an extended time. Also, moving the component to a different place on the belt allows a photographer to assume a different position such as kneeling, bracing against a wall, or lying prone without damaging gear. If locking the component in position is preferred, slide the plastic tang down into the fabric loop on the belt or rail while attaching the component. This prevents the component from sliding along the belt.
|Every skin component bag has a sound-silencer built in. The "Sound Silencer" underneath the front flap eliminates hook-and-loop tearing noises. During weddings and some concerts, for example, loud noises may be frowned upon but a photographer still needs to access gear. The Sound Silencer still allows the flap to cover the top of the bag but prevents the hook-and-loop from contacting, to eliminate noise.
|Smooth back on all modular and skin component pouches.
|Attaches to all Think Tank Photo belts and belt packs.

Park managers at Great Smoky Mountains National Park have announced that the public will be invited to an Open House on the un-opened section of the Foothills Parkway from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, May 3 and 4, 2008.
Park Superintendent, Dale Ditmanson said, "This 9.5 mile scenicroadway was last opened to motorists in April 1998 and has been under construction nearly non-stop since then. During that 10-year period, the National Park Service and the Federal Highway Administration awarded and managed two contracts totaling $17.5 under which three graceful, curving bridges have been completed."
"We are really looking forward to having our neighbors see what has been accomplished since they were last able to visit the site." Ditmanson said. "The entire section has spectacular vistas and the bridges seem to hang suspended up to 80 feet above the ground. We believe that they will someday become icons of the Foothills Parkway much as the Linn Cove Viaduct is of the Blue Ridge Parkway."
Motorists will enter the area via the Foothills Parkway interchange off East Lamar Alexander Parkway about 11 miles north of Maryville. Upon entering they will be greeted by graduates of "Blount County Experience Your Smokies" who will hand out safety and other information about the Parkway.
The unopened segment is a dead-end and has a gravel surface, but no guardrails, striping or signs so it is not opened to vehicles on a regular basis for safety reasons. Normally the closed section is open only to hikers, cyclists and horseback riders.
"It's got awesome bridges and fabulous views," Bob Miller, management assistant.

Connecticut Sun center Tina Charles is the WNBA's Most Valuable Player, easily topping Los Angeles forward Candace Parker in voting for the honor.
Charles received 25 first-place votes and 345 points overall from a panel of 41 sports writers and broadcasters, the league said Thursday. Parker had seven first-place votes and 253 points, and Indiana Fever forward Tamika Catchings - last season's winner - was third with 210.
In her third season, all with the Sun, Charles won her first MVP award after finishing second last year. She was the WNBA Rookie of the Year in 2010.
Charles won her third straight rebounding title at 10.5 per game. She also set the Sun's single-season scoring record with an average of 18 points and helped guide Connecticut (25-9) to the top playoff seed in the Eastern Conference.

A 43-year-old city woman who argued with her boyfriend over an event that took place in 1977, became so enraged that she slugged him in the face twice with a Red Bull can, according to Middletown Police.
On Oct. 18 at 6 p.m., police were called to a home on East Main Street for a domestic in which Dawn Marie Jarvis, 43, of East Main Street said she and her boyfriend had a verbal argument about an event in 1977 in which she got so angry she hit him twice with a Red Bull can in his face, the report says.
He smelled of alcohol, police say, and his daughter's girlfriend confirmed what happened. Jarvis, who has 14 prior arrests and convictions for disorderly, interfering and resisting, said she did not hit her boyfriend.
She was charged with disorderly conduct.

The Kansas City Chiefs won an emotional game on Sunday, beating the Carolina Panthers, 27-21, in Arrowhead Stadium the day after the murder-suicide involving Jovan Belcher.
In the contest, the Chiefs lost Derrick Johnson and Brandon Flowers, both to hamstring injuries. The severity of the injuries is unclear at this point. Branden Albert was also held out of his starting spot with back spasms.
In the Denver Broncos' 31-23 victory over Tampa Bay, linebacker Wesley Woodyard had to leave with a injury to his right ankle. With Denver playing on Thursday night against the Oakland Raiders, it will be a challenge for Woodyard to play, although he's currently listed as day-to-day.
Speaking of Oakland, its secondary took a huge hit, with three members suffering concussions against the Cleveland Browns. Matt Giordano, Mike Mitchell and Phillip Adams all left the team's 20-17 loss with head injuries and did not return. It's highly unlikely any will play on Thursday.

Bargainers for the United Steelworkers union and Bethlehem Steel Corp. resolved several relatively minor differences of opinion over implementation of the new labor contract at meetings last week in Pittsburgh, meeting participants said.
Disputes over language in the concessionary labor contract included such issues as vacation pay, dental plan provisions and overtime language. The labor agreement was ratified last year, but several differences in interpretation prevented the union from printing and distributing final copies of the document to the membership.

A Coca-Cola deliveryman lost his leg Friday night after being struck by a vehicle near the Lanes Mill Road Wawa store, police said.
Jorge Garriga, 41, of Perth Amboy, was completing a delivery in the area at about 6:06 p.m. when the accident occurred.
"For reasons unknown at this time," Brick Police Sgt. David Bedrosian said, Garriga, who was wearing dark clothing, entered the roadway near the exit of the Wawa convenience store parking lot.
Nicole M. Atrashewski, 22, of Brick, had just turned from the eastbound lane of Burnt Tavern Road onto Lanes Mill Road in her 2006 Mazda sedan and struck Garriga and his delivery handcart, Bedrosian said.
Atrashewski came to a controlled stop 75 feet from the area of the accident, Bedrosian said.
Garriga was airlifted by Southstar Aeromedical Helicopter to the trauma unit at Jersey Shore University Medical Center, Neptune. Police said his leg was severed as a result of the accident.
The Bernard J. Cooke Memorial Park, adjacent to the Wawa, was utilized as a landing zone for Southstar. Herbertsville Fire Company assisted with securing the landing zone.
Brick police officers Brian Ulman and Jay Nye were the first to arrive on scene. Brick Police EMS and MONOC paramedics also responded.
One lane in the area of the crash was closed to southbound traffic on Lanes Mill Road during the investigation. The closure of the lane lasted approximately two hours, Bedrosian said.
Bedrosian and Officer Jay Lampiasi of the Brick Township Police Department's Traffic Safety Unit responded and are conducting the crash investigation. Surveillance video has been secured by police, and the cause of the crash is pending the investigation.
Anyone with information surrounding the crash is being asked to contact the Brick police department's traffic safety unit at 732-262-1140.

Canyon Lake resident Elinor Martin, whose family ranched in the area of Canyon Lake and Menifee Valley since the late 1800s, has a new book out called, "Images of America: Canyon Lake".
The book also includes some history about Menifee Valley.
Here's what The Friday Flyer has to say about the book...
Elinor writes about "The Early Years" after her grandfather, Henry Evans, moved to the Menifee Valley in 1890, eight years after California Southern Railroad built a line from Perris to Elsinore through what became known as Railroad Canyon. The railroad's first station was at Pinacate St., now the location of the Orange Empire Railway Museum and home to the Perris Valley Historical and Museum Association. The book is on sale for $19.99 at the Canyon Lake Market, Pepe's Restaurant and Pack, Wrap and Post.
The railroad line was later sold to the Santa Fe Railroad and became part of its transcontinental line. Troubles with flooding beset the railroad almost from the beginning. On February 16, 1927, the railroad experienced its third washout since it was built. Pictures in Elinor's book show how the bridge washed out from under the tracks at the southern end, where I-15 meets Railroad Canyon Rd.

Does anyone know of any books or maps on the minning history of the Menifee area? I have hiked most of the hills in the area and I have come across several vacant mines/ReplyDelete

There are various new housing developments in Menifee, I live in the KB Homes off Scott Road and Menifee Rd. One of the issue I've noticed is that most don't have HOA's which I understand most residents don't want, but what are we to do when a neighbor starts to grow corn in their front yard, which is littered with bottles and Cans, most recently a Rooster. My Husband and I moved to Menifee from San Diego, we keep our property clean and take pride in our Home. Are there any agencies that we can call for help when a neighbors yard and property starts to bring down the beauty of our new neighborhood?ReplyDelete

The Tennessee Titans are interested in signing offensive guard Andy Levitre, according to Sports Illustrated's Peter King. Levitre is set to become a free agent Tuesday.
Levitre, a four-year veteran out of Oregon State, has played his entire professional career with the Buffalo Bills, who selected him with the 51st-overall pick in the 2009 NFL Draft. He immediately won a first-string job in Buffalo and has started all 64 games over the last four seasons. After his solid debut season in '09, he was named to the All-Rookie team.
The Titans could use some help along the O-line, especially on the inside. Tennessee allowed 39 sacks in 2012, which ranked 21st in the NFL, and the team's 16 negative run plays up the middle tied for fourth-most in the league. Levitre would certainly help in pass protection, as Pro Football Focus graded his pass-blocking efficiency at 98.5 in 2012, tops in the league. PFF rates him as the No. 2 interior lineman available in free agency.
The Titans have roughly $19 million available and plan to make an early run at Levitre, per King's report. The guard is coming off a four-year, $3.56 million rookie deal with the Bills, and he'll likely fetch a much higher price tag this offseason.

• Cowboys still over the salary cap
• Anquan Boldin expected to fight Ravens on pay cut
• Just how powerful is Roger Goodell?

Colonial Place/Riverview Civic League
             Open Forum and Small Dog Park Vote, At This Month's Meeting
NEXT BOARD MEETING will be Monday, January 18, 2010, at 7:00 pm.
DEADLINE for the February issue is Friday, January 15, 2010.
THIS MONTH'S MEETING AGENDA:   Monthly police report - Open Forum - Renew your membership - Vote on the Small Dog Park issue
Greetings neighbors! I am excited to welcome in the year 2010 as this is the year for recreation projects! This year we will see the Colonial Place Greenway playground renovated. I would like to thank Steve Earnhart for his work on this project. This year we will see the completion of the Haven Creek Walking Path, a project that will not only bring with it a nice walking path, but an environmentally friendly living shoreline as well. I would like to thank Bill Nusbaum for his years of hard work on the Haven Creek Walking Path Project. This is the year that the city plans to have the Northside Skateboard Park open for business as well. Many of our younger residents of CPRV helped in the design for this new park and it has been anticipated for quite some time now!
Also, this year may bring about some change to the dog park to accommodate smaller dogs as well. Make sure to come out to this month's meeting to get your vote heard on the design of cordoning off a smaller section for small dogs to interact safely. I want to thank Buffy Masten for her hard work over the years so that CPRV can have an amazing Dog Park.
This year will bring about some new leadership for CPRV as well, as Artemis Stoll, Jack Kennedy, Sharon McGlone, Amy Butala, and I are coming to the last leg of our terms. I hope the New Year brings new faces and new ideas to the table in how historic Colonial Place and Riverview can continue being the most amazing neighborhoods that they are. The historic homes in CPRV and the beautiful natural wetland environment that surrounds CPRV is an amazing gem in this city.
Being that it is the New Year, please make sure to bring your membership current. Being that there will be a vote on the Dog Park design at January's meeting, it is important that all memberships are brought current before the vote takes place. Membership will be on hand at the meeting so you can renew your membership or sign up as a new member. I look forward to seeing at January's meeting.
As I write, Christmas is nearly here and my original plan for January's guest speaker has had to be modified. So, rather than scramble to put another speaker in place—or push past my deadline any further—I've come up with a new plan. For January's meeting, we will have an "open forum," an opportunity for residents to make suggestions about future speaker topics.
Is there a topic you'd like to see addressed? Are you involved in a specialized line of work, or do you have expertise in an area that would be of interest to our residents? (You can volunteer yourself as a speaker!)
Bring your suggestions to our first meeting of 2010 on January 11th. If you can't make it to the meeting, email me at email@example.com and I'll be happy to present your idea on your behalf.
See you at the meeting!
Thank you to everyone who attended the CPRV Holiday party at ForKids. The atmosphere was festive and the donation table was laden with toys and gifts brought by our residents. From Community Relations Coordinator, Priscillia Monti, who gave a brief presentation, we learned how community involvement can make a difference for the families the organization assists.
I would also like to extend a BIG thank you to the volunteers who helped get everything in place before the party and those who stayed after to help wrap things up. Each of you helped make my job so much easier. My sincere appreciation goes out to the following folks:
Despite a Nor'easter that followed a Nor'easter, the neighborhood got into the holiday spirit with another season of enthusiastic holiday decorating. Congratulations to this year's winners:
John White, Stormwater Engineer for the City of Norfolk, and Fleta Jackson, Stormwater Public Information Specialist, have been working with the Civic League to plan for the installation of advisory and enforcement signs to support street sweeping in our neighborhoods. The outcome for the project is to increase the quantity of debris removed from our streets by reducing the degree to which on-street parking impedes the cleaning. Street cleaning makes a significant difference in the health of our creeks and rivers, and it helps prevent street flooding caused by clogged storm water drains.
Regulatory signs alerting residents to the street sweeping schedule and to "no parking" zones during the cleaning periods will be installed in Colonial Place. Advisory signs will be installed at the entrances to Riverview. The difference in approach is due to the greater density of on-street parking in Colonial Place. The sign installation schedule will be developed in January, and the work may begin in February, 2010.
Based upon a resolution passed at a recent Civic League meeting, the program will include:
On Monday, February 8, at 7 p.m. at St. Patrick's School in Norfolk, the Bay Youth Orchestras of Virginia will be presenting a concert program that the whole family will enjoy. The orchestras' music director, Helen Martell is a resident of CPRV and teaches strings at Meadowbrook School.
The groups performing in this program, the String and Jr. String Orchestras are under the direction of Christina Morton (another CPRV member) and Beth Argiro. The group consists of students from throughout Hampton Roads and will be performing selections from Mozart and Mussorgsky from Beethoven to Dvorak to Vieuxtemps.
The title is "American Serenade," where we are exploring our country's musical roots through a variety of pieces from the "New World Symphony" to variations on "Yankee Doodle".
The concert is sponsored by the Norfolk Arts Commission and is free and open to the public. Call 618-1800 or more information or visit www.bayyouth.org to learn more about the group.
Once a month, open to everyone! Day and time may vary depending on who is hosting. Join the Veg Club listserve by going to: http:// groups.yahoo.com/group/cprv_veggies/ Or send an email to: CPRV_Veggies-subscribe@ yahoogroups.com. If you would like to join us or have any questions, contact Joanna at firstname.lastname@example.com.
CPRV regular size stickers are still only $1.00 each; mini stickers are a mere $.50 each. Even at these low prices the CPRV treasury benefits and you promote the neighborhood. Stickers will be available at the January meeting. (Please bring exact $$). Get your "Stickers-by-Mail" by sending a check made out to CPRV to: Jeanne Ullian, 4400 Mayflower Road, Norfolk 23508. Be sure specify the number/size and your delivery address as I usually hand deliver these on my neighborhood walk.
Residents of Colonial Place and Riverview are urged to contact the city when they become of aware of properties being offered for rent within our neighborhood. Call Rusty Masten at 664-6527 (City of Norfolk) and request an Occupancy Permit Inspection for the vacant or soon-to-be-vacated rental property.

Tips and tricks for easy Perl programming in Vim
The Vim editor has any number of tricks for helping you avoid unnecessary typing. In this month's article, we look at some effort-saving Vim techniques for Perl hackers.
There is probably no other decision in a programmer's life that is so important and so irrevocable as their choice of an editor. Once you opt for Vi or Emacs, you will tend to stick to your guns and attempt to coax the last ounce of performance out of your favorite tool. Once you decide on an editor, it is better to learn as much as you can about it. More effective use of an editor not only reduces the danger of Carpal tunnel syndrome, but also helps you code far more quickly and with fewer typos. The Vim (Vi Improved) editor has a number of advantages over its venerable predecessor Vi. Over the years, Vim has been extended dramatically to support hard core programmers; it is highly configurable and plug-in extensible – in fact, Vim can be tailored to suit almost anyone's taste or style of working.

2Charlize Theron's Thinking About Releasing Her Own Line of Jeans
From The Hollywood Reporter:
Everybody knows how well Charlize Theron wears clothes, but now the A-list clotheshorse wants to make them too.
THR has learned that she and stylist Leslie Fremar are shopping the idea for a Theron Jeans line with denim brands, which would be sold in mass-market stores. Now, with celebrity stylists making all kinds of clothing deals — Kate Young with Target, Jeanne Yang's Holmes & Yang co-designed with Katie Holmes — it makes a lot of sense.
I'm not entirely opposed to this idea, especially if it makes my ass look like Charlize Theron's. That's how these things work, right? You wear something that a celebrity put their name on and you suddenly become exactly like them, yeah?
There's not much to say about this – Charlize Theron might put out some jeans. She dresses well and we know she's a pretty cool lady, so it might actually be pretty good. Here's a confession: when Sarah Jessica Parker put out that line of clothes with Steve and Barry's a few years ago, I definitely grabbed about 10 pair of her $15 jeans and guess when I last wore them? Yesterday. I FEEL NO SHAME!
Here's a gallery of Charlize Theron wearing jeans, just because, you know, why not?

Yes, classic film fans, prepare to sigh loudly and furrow your brows -- and rightly so -- as a remake of Lewis Milestone's 1930 WWI drama "All Quiet on the Western Front" is getting a remake. And not only that, it's going to be from "Deep Impact" and "The Peacemaker" director Mimi Leder. Ugh. But if this all sounds somewhat familiar, well, it kind of is.
Let's rewind back to last summer and you'll recall that Harry Potter himself, Daniel Radcliffe, was said to be toplining this long-gestating remake but the curious thing is, there's no mention of him any longer. Has he moved on? Well, with his name nowhere in sight in Deadline's recent update on the project, we would assume so. The project is being produced by the tiny, new production shingle Sliding Down Rainbows Entertainment who are still securing funding, and we would wager Radcliffe has his pick of projects with actual financing in place, hence his exit.
The project will be a new version of the classic Erich Maria Remarque novel which follows a group of German soldiers during the First World War and their firsthand experiences with the brutality of war. The film is rightfully regarded as a classic -- earning two Oscars for Best Director and Outstanding Production way back in the day -- and though it was remade for TV in 1979, starring John-Boy from "The Waltons" and Ernest Borgnine, it's no surprise that version is strangely less fondly remembered. But that won't stop Leder.
Her version will take place "in the last 24 hours of the war" while still trying to address the horror, savagery and violence the young men thrown into battle face. Nothing like a gimmicky structure to get that point across. This one is still a long way off though. Production isn't slated to begin until late 2012 in Europe...depending on whether or not the film gets the money it needs.
Dennis Bridwell | January 29, 2012 3:25 AM
The original 1930 version covers nearly the entire war from 1914 to 1918 and how the star went from an idealist young patriot ready for war to a combat veteran longing for peace and home. How can this be portrayed if the story only covers "the last 24 hours of the war."?
The original cannot be improved on. From the original uniforms that even showed the changing patterns from early to late war production, the extras were really veterans as the war had only ended 11 years before filming began.
That said, if the budget is a problem, there are hundreds of WWI reenactors that recreate a WWI battlefield twice a year in Pennsylvania. There is a realistic battlefield with trenches, shell craters, barbed wire, and partially destroyed buildings. They have many machine guns, authentic period aircraft, and as mentioned, hundreds of correctly equiped men and women that would be ready to be extras. Check out the Great War Association website.
Dude | January 28, 2012 6:53 PM
This is absolutely unacceptable. No remake should be made for the original version of this film. Truly, society is just stupid if it even allows this to take place. There are some films that should not be remade period. Remake All Quiet on the Western Front, why not remake Star Wars? Stupid people, just stupid.
Cate | August 10, 2011 5:54 AM
I think this would be an excellent role for Daniel and I really, really hope he's still attached, because I would SO be first in line!!!
Ian Wirth | July 27, 2011 10:54 AM
This is a tragedy. Lewis Milestone's film still stands up as a masterpiece today.

The Post article details Hillary Clinton's night of partying at a Cuban-themed club in Cartegena during the scandal-plagued Summit of the Americas.
Photos snapped by surprised onlookers show the former first lady swilling a Colombian-brewed Aguila ("Eagle'') cerveza straight from the bottle and hitting the dance floor.
Witnesses said Clinton played maracas and danced the rumba to three songs played by the club's Cuba-centric house band.
In all, Clinton's party ordered a dozen beers, two shots and bottles of water. They left their waiter a $40 tip.
Twitter reactions to the New York Post front page were mixed.
NYPost front page picture of "Swillary" Clinton is brutally unfair. She drank a beer at a summit meeting event. So what???—

IRWINDALE (CNS) – Some 52 people, some of whom were airlifted to trauma centers, suffered minor to moderate injuries today when a tour bus clipped a car and overturned on the side of the eastbound Foothill (210) Freeway in Irwindale, but there were no fatalities.
The Da Zhen bus rolled over around 10 a.m. near Irwindale Avenue east of the San Gabriel River (605) Freeway. At least 10 ambulances responded to the scene, along with at least three medical helicopters to carry patients to area hospitals.
All lanes of the freeway were temporarily closed to accommodate medical helicopters. Around 11 a.m., however, all westbound lanes were reopened, along with the eastbound carpool lane.
Los Angeles County fire Capt. Tom Richards said earlier that of the injured, 33 were initially classified as minor, while six were airlifted in "serious but not necessarily critical condition." He said another 13 had minor injuries.
Most of the injuries involved cuts and bruises and some fractures, according to fire and hospital officials. The victims were primarily older adults, believed to be between roughly 60 and 80 years old. Many of the injured did not speak English.
The bus was believed to be heading for a casino, possibly the San Manuel Indian Bingo and Casino in Highland.
Of the patients who were airlifted, five were taken to Los Angeles County+USC Medical Center. The hospital's Dr. Leo Rodriguez said the patients were being treated for "blunt force trauma."
"From a rollover bus accident, I think you can imagine the types of injuries we would see from something like that," he said.
According to broadcast reports, 11 people were taken to Foothill Presbyterian Hospital in Glendora, three were taken to Huntington Memorial Hospital in Pasadena and a half-dozen were taken to both Queen of the Valley Hospital in West Covina and Inter-Community hospital in Covina.
An official cause of the crash was not released, but 21-year-old Melody Bausa, a student at San Diego State University, said the bus clipped her Hyundai Elantra and spun out of control.
"I guess the bus was changing lanes behind me on my passenger side, and I guess it just clipped me," she said. "I was trying not to hit anybody else, so I guess we just all kind of swerved."
She said she ran to the bus after it rolled to assist passengers.
"I was just hoping that they were OK, because they were all kind of older, so I just wanted to get them out of there and make sure they were OK," she said.
A flatbed truck initially was stopped at the scene of the rollover, but it was apparently not involved in the crash and was driven away from the scene.
"It's just too early at this point to determine how the accident happened," CHP spokesman Officer Saul Gomez told CNS. "We are going to keep the bus as evidence and we will assign motor vehicle specialists to this case."
Gomez said investigators will check the records of the bus, the driver and safety record of the Da Zhen Travel Agency.
"Eventually, we will be able to determine whether the accident was caused by a mechanical problem with the bus, driver error or some other circumstance we're not yet aware of," Gomez said. "But I don't think we will have any firm details of how the accident happened for another four to five hours."
A married couple who witnessed the accident told Fox 11 the bus was changing lanes going from the number 2 lane to the number 3 lane when the accident occurred.
"I don't think the bus driver saw a black Hyundai that was in the number 3 lane, Marla told Fox 11. "He (the bus driver) clipped the passenger side of the Hyundai. The driver of the car was able to maintain control but the bus driver seemed to over correct and then crashed and overturned."
Her husband Mike told the station the scene immediately after the crash was utter chaos.
"I went to the back of the bus and began helping people out. I was worried the bus would go up (in flames)," he said. "People were hurt, crying and bleeding," he added.
The Da Zhen Travel Agency is based in Monterey Park. It was unclear how many people were on the bus.
A secretary at the agency told CNS that her supervisors were assisting the CHP with the tour bus crash and all had gone to the scene.

News: Beyoncé Gives Unusual Answer When Pressured About Pregnancy Rumors [Video]
Monday, Jun 3, 2013 6:10PM
Grammy-winning singer Beyoncé Knowles-Carter may have the rumor mills spinning this week after giving a non-direct answer when recently confronted about pregnancy gossip.
Rather than provide a direct response, the Queen Bey simply laughed off the speculation.
Is she or isn't she? Beyoncé continues to fuel speculation about whether she's pregnant. During a sit-down interview with the "Today" show at the "Chime for Change" concert in London, she was asked whether she is expecting her second child. But instead of confirming or denying the reports, the singer just laughed. "What kind of rumor? What? Huh, huh? I don't know what you're talking about," she told the reporter. (Rap-Up)
Last month, Hot 97 program director Ebro claimed her husband Jay-Z killed the pregnancy gossip via an e-mail to him.
"I e-mailed on some, 'Congratulations, send my love to the family, blah, blah, blah,' and he hit me back and said it's not true. [I hit him] like literally, it had to be Saturday afternoon," Hot 97 radio station program director Ebro said referring to Jay-Z. "So it had been a whole 24 hours of 'It's true.' I figured, I didn't want to hit them [right away], you know, I figured they were in good sprits. It was just announced there's a new child. [His direct quote was] 'It's not true, news is worse than blogs.' That's what the e-mail account said. [laughs]" (Hot 97)
Along with Jigga, Beyoncé donned a flat tummy while performing in Italy after the baby rumors exploded.
Beyoncé is letting her outfits speak louder than her words. Bunking fervent reports of a second pregnancy, the sultry singer was a show-stopper at the Milan show of her Mrs. Carter World Tour. Beyonce, 31, wore several of the same outfits that previously led to rumors she's nurturing a new baby bump - except this time the "Diva" singer's already svelte physique seemed to be as slim as ever.

Multiple sources confirmed she is expecting a second child with husband Jay-Z a couple days ago.

Chargers raises funds for Huntington's Disease
Chargers players and their fans were among the enormous crowd of supporters attending a fund-raising gala at the El Cortez Hotel recently. The event – "A Night at the Copa" – raised much-needed funds in the fight against Huntington's Disease. Proceeds from the posh affair were earmarked for the care and research programs of the Huntington's Disease Society of America. Chargers Pro Bowl Tight End Antonio Gates and the team's entire Offensive Line were honored as "Huntington's heroes."
Guests dressed to the nines in glamorous 1940s-style finery to complement the sophistication of the Copacabana nightclub in its heyday. Music from the '40s accompanied the delicious dinner prepared by Guiseppe Fine Catering of La Jolla.
La Jolla's own Gigi Goldman co-chaired the successful event with Shannon Alford. Susie and Dean Spanos (members of the Advisory Board) were unable to attend, but their staunch support of the organization was acknowledged by Board President Bill Johnston during the program.
Among the many locals on hand to help fight Huntington's (a genetic brain disorder that affects about 30,000 Americans) were Marge and Paul Palmer, Nan Pace, William and Emily Kilpatrick, Julie and Reed Rosling, Jack Berkman (a board member), Chargers Head Coach Norv Turner, Allan and Jane Rappoport, Hank Bauer, and Ben and Ann Haddad.
