Hall County Probate Court offering wedding ceremonies
If you're looking to get married on what some say is the most romantic day of the year, then you're in luck! Hall County's Probate Court is now offering wedding ceremonies at the Hall County Courthouse, and interested couples can get married there on Feb. 14.
Hall County Probate Court Judge Patty Walters Laine said they began offering the service on Jan. 10.
''Couples interested in getting married in Probate Court can schedule a wedding with the Probate Court clerk when they get their marriage license,'' said Laine.
Laine said a marriage license is required in order to get married in Hall County Probate Court. The fee for getting a license is $56 or $16 with acceptable proof of premarital counseling.
''Weddings can be scheduled any Thursday afternoon, and they are offered in English and Spanish,'' she said.
Since Valentine's Day falls on a Thursday this year, couples can celebrate their nuptials on the same day the rest of the world is celebrating love and romance.
Laine said if demand is high enough next Thursday, her office will spend the entire day officiating wedding ceremonies.
Meanwhile, there is a financial perk to getting married at the courthouse; weddings performed in Hall County Probate Court are free.

How much do we love Jonathan Saunders? We've just bumped into the new creative director for Pollini enjoying the sunshine in a café outside the Principe hotel in Milan with his friend - and stylist for the Pollini show - POP's Katie Grand. He couldn't find a cab so jumped into our car and along the way we obviously wanted to know how his preparation for his first Milan show was going. Jonathan was totally relaxed and told us he was really looking forward to Wednesday. He wouldn't give too much away but told us to check back with him afterwards when he'd be enjoying a glass of celebratory champagne. We'll be there! And you'll hear his reaction as soon as we do...

Must See Museum
Some of us look forward into seeing places that they have never seen. This might require a lot as it would also mean traveling around the world just to see places that are worth seeing. There is a need for you to spend a lot of money to make this happen. While it may look like a waste of time and money, it should mean other thing to those who really love to travel. For example, this is the opportunity for them to go to other places and have an once-in-a-lifetime chance to visit places that are quite rarely visited by many people. With this, they will have unique stories to tell. It will be a perfect opportunity to experience new things with new places to see. While it may appear to be less practical, for those who really love to travel, this is such a golden chance that should not be ignored and left unnoticed.
London museums can be a great destination for people who love to travel and have a journey that will be memorable. Of course, in order for you to have this opportunity, you need to make sure that you have the proper guide. This is needed especially if it is your first time to go to such places. It would help you not to get lost and thus will save you from too much travel and wasted time. Once you have decided to go to such place, you will need to learn more about it, especially the way to go to such place and also, the things that you are allowed to do inside such structure. By doing so, you will be well prepared with your journey and you will avoid getting lost to a place where it will be the first time that you will visit.

Welcome to the Center for Ethnic Studies and the Arts. Studying the distinctive, yet synthetic relationships among minority communities and the arts, CESA supports both those who specialize in individual ethnic studies areas and those who wish to learn more about how cultural diversity defines and enriches the arts. Our public programs, faculty and student research activities, educational opportunities, and other innovations have inspired dialogues and new creative force about ethnic identities and the arts, writ broadly. We organize lectures, book discussion groups, graduate proseminars, an annual junior faculty publications workshop, and symposia and conferences. In addition, we have published a student-written cookbook.
From 2008-2011, CESA has launched its Arts in Everyday Life initiative. At CESA, we embrace not only the traditional fine arts, but all aspects of expressive culture, including vernacular traditions, rituals, and commercial popular culture. Our 3-year initiative focuses on three research clusters: Women of Color in Popular Culture; Food Studies; Identities and Technoculture.

Volunteers needed at historic Ellwood Manor
Ellwood Manor, the only Civil War-era structure remaining on the Wilderness battlefield, needs some new friends.
Built circa 1790, the plantation home opens to the public each year through the volunteerism of trained interpreters coordinated by the Friends of Wilderness Battlefield.
To prepare for the new season, FoWB is accepting applications for these key posts. The volunteers interpret Ellwood's rich and varied history for visitors.
Applications, available online here, will be accepted until Saturday, Feb. 26. Download and print the form. New interpreters are required to be members of FoWB.
Greg Mertz, supervisory historian at Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park, and FoWB Vice President Carolyn Elstner will train the interpreters. People will learn about the site's heritage, its restoration, and what happened there during the Civil War. Each person will receive their own personal manual.
Ellwood Manor, also known as the Lacy House, served as a Confederate hospital during the Battle of Chancellorsville in 1863. Confederate Lt. Gen. Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson's arm, amputated at nearby Wilderness Tavern after his wounding by friendly fire, is buried in its Lacy family cemetery. During the Battle of the Wilderness in 1864, two Federal corps commanders used Ellwood as headquarters.
Volunteering more than 2,500 hours last year, FoWB interpreters have helped to keep historic Ellwood accessible to the public since 1998. During 2010, a record 4,683 visitors from across the United States and the world visited the home to learn about its important role in nation's history.
New volunteers must attend a training session on Saturday, March 5, as well as one of the veteran-interpreter training sessions on Wednesday, March 16, or Saturday, April 16. All meetings will be held at Wilderness Library
off State Route 20 in Orange County. March 5 training is from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. The March 16 and April 16 sessions are from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The friends group will provide lunch for each session. Everyone who completes training is provided a polo shirt with FoWB logo as part of the interpreters' dress code.
If you're interested in helping people learn more about local history and keeping this historic home open to the public, and can commit to a minimum of once-a-month service during Ellwood's May-through-October season, please mail your completed application to FoWB, P.O. Box 576, Locust Grove, VA, 22508.
For more information, write Carolyn Elstner at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Friends of Wilderness Battlefield is a nonprofit, all-volunteer organization devoted to helping the park preserve the Wilderness battlefield in Orange and Spotsylvania counties.

Howdy, y'all! I'm Toby Joe. I'm a12 year-old Paint Gelding – a Tri-Paint to some because I have brown, black and white on my coat. I'm mostly white, although I sometimes think it looks like I dipped my head in a bucket of chocolate.
I've been giving rides for years now and it's something I really enjoy. I especially like giving kids rides, and it seems they like me, too. I'm always excited to start my day so I'm often the first one out of the gate in the morning.
When I'm not giving rides, you can catch me listening to my favorite song, White Horse by Taylor Swift. I'm convinced she's talking about me!
If you're an intermediate rider looking for an adventure, call my friends at (505) 819-4013 to schedule a ride with me!

DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) Adam Scott was frustrated by hitting good shots and signing for mediocre scores. After a spirited chat with his caddie, both were determined to squeeze everything they could out of the second round at the Memorial.
Scott flirted with perfection Friday at Muirfield Village, missing four putts inside 12 feet and still shooting a 10-under 62.
It gave him a one-shot lead over Rod Pampling, and he hopes it will be enough to shake off the golf gremlins that have been holding him back since his victory in Houston two months ago.
"We just told each other what we thought about what's going on out there, a bit of a heart-to-heart, because we knew I was close to playing really well," Scott said of his talk with Tony Navarro. "Our idea was to come out and be focused, and neither of us make a mistake."
He made one, hitting a heavy 7-iron that tumbled off the front of the green and into the bunker on the par-3 16th, and his 12-foot par putt rippled over the edge. He followed that with a 20-footer on the 17th for his 11th birdie of the round.
Scott was at 12-under 132, one shot ahead of Pampling, who played bogey-free for a 68. Bubba Watson had a chance to tie for the lead until he went long on the 18th for a bogey for a 68, leaving him at a 10-under 134 with another Aussie, Aaron Baddeley (68).
It was another day of good scoring conditions, with stifling heat, mild breezes, fairways with plenty of roll and greens that held approach shots and rolled smoothly.
That wasn't the case for Tiger Woods.
The three-time Memorial champion hit the ball decently enough, but couldn't make anything outside 6 feet until he rolled in a 10-foot birdie on the final hole for a 72, leaving him 10 shots behind.
"You look at a lot of guys up there, they're making a bunch of putts, and not just from 6, 7, 8 feet. They're making them from 20 feet," Woods said. "I just haven't done that."
Scott didn't really need to. He hit the ball so pure that except for hitting into the bunker on the 16th and going into the first cut of rough beyond the 18th green, he had only one putt longer than 15 feet.
Jim Furyk noticed the 62 on the board before he teed off, but what really got his attention were the other low scores from the morning group of players some were pretty good, but nowhere close to what Scott did.
Scott's round was one shot off the course record John Huston had a 61 in 1996 but even more impressive was that the next lowest score on the day was 67.
"That round was really good because it separated himself," Furyk said after his 69. "That's how I judge a low round. Someone might shoot 63, and you'll see a couple of 64s and a couple of 65s. But when the next best round is a 67 ... that's a darn good round."

With research expertise ranging across place, landscape and mobility, creative and collaborative geographies, transnational material cultures, visual cultures of exploration, print culture and travel, hospitality and multi-culturalism, and urban modernities, among much else, Landscape Surgery represents the scholarly interests of the Social and Cultural Geography Group of the Department of Geography at Royal Holloway, University of London.
In addition to regular research seminars led by the Group's collective of postgraduate taught students and our strong PhD cohort, Landscape Surgery is host to discussions on methodology and practice (the "Elective Surgery" collective), reading groups (such as the Historical Geography Reading Group), and termly cultural excursions (so-called "Days of Culture").
Members of Landscape Surgery are involved in a wide variety of interdisciplinary and outreach activities—such as the award-winning PASSENGERFILMS cinema series—which bring the work of social, cultural, and historical geography at Royal Holloway to the attention of wider audiences. Meeting at Bedford Square, in the heart of Bloomsbury, Landscape Surgery regularly welcomes participants—both domestic and international—from across disciplines.
Further details of the Group's membership and activities can be found on its webpage. In addition to this blog, Landscape Surgery hosts a mailing list where details of forthcoming meetings (and discussions about research and practice) can be found.

NASHVILLE — Gov. Phil Bredesen said Tuesday he signed a bill requiring local jailers to try and determine the immigration status of prisoners in part to keep the issue from "throwing gasoline on the fire" in this year's political campaigns.
But the governor, a Democrat who is barred by law from seeking a third term, also said that while he doesn't like how the bill is being used "symbolically," he views its requirements as not unreasonable in light of similar local-federal partnerships already under way in the state's four biggest counties.
"I guess you could do it (veto) as a symbolic act, but if you do so you're just throwing it out, you're throwing gasoline on the fire, and now there'll be a whole bunch of political campaigns this fall about 'we're going to toughen up this kind of thing,'" Gov. Bredesen told reporters. "In the end, I didn't think what it did was unreasonable. Symbolically, I didn't like it. I didn't think it was necessary."
He said, however, that "there's nothing in that bill that sheriffs can't do today if they want to."
But immigrant advocates disagree, noting the bill mandates jailers seek to determine the citizenship status of arrestees. The information would be forwarded to federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials if the arrestee is in the U.S. illegally or his or her status cannot be verified.
"We are disappointed that Gov. Bredesen declined to show leadership on this incredibly important issue," said Stephen Fotopulos, executive director of the Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition, adding the state is "left with a terrible piece of legislation that burdens local governments and fails to make our communities safer."
Earlier, this week, Gov. Bredesen, whom advocates urged to veto the bill, acknowledged struggling with whether to sign or veto the measure, pushed by Republicans.
On Tuesday, he recalled living in England during the 1960s, noting that "if I'd been arrested for something in England, I think it would have been reasonable for a police office to look at me and say, 'You know if you're not English, I'd like to see your passport."
Gov. Bredesen said, "I just think we've got, as a state, to get beyond using this whole immigration issue and English-only issues, which I think have nothing to do with immigration. .... We've got to get beyond making political footballs out of that unless we want to really damage our economic future."
During this year's legislative session, lawmakers introduced a flood of immigration-related legislation. When Republican lawmakers pushed through a resolution praising Arizona for its tough new law requiring local police to enforce federal immigration requirements, he called it "meaningless."
But if the governor thinks his signing of the bill will throw a wet blanket on the illegal immigrant debate, he has another thing coming.
"Gov. Bredesen shouldn't have even considered vetoing the bill," said Rachel Taylor, spokeswoman for Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey, a Republican gubernatorial candidate. She said voters "can count on Lt. Governor Ramsey passing a law like Arizona's when he is elected."
U.S. Rep. Zach Wamp, R-Tenn., another GOP gubernatorial hopeful, in a statement called the law, which takes effect Jan. 1, a "good first step, but we need to do more ... If the federal government won't enforce the law, then as governor, I will."
Another GOP candidate, Knoxville Mayor Bill Haslam, said "states must step up and address the issue of illegal immigration, because it's clear the federal government has failed to do its part. ... As governor, I will enforce the laws on the books and will cut off the supply of jobs going to illegal immigrants."
An effort Tuesday evening to contact by e-mail a spokesman for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mike McWherter was unsuccessful.
When Gov. Bredesen criticized lawmakers' focus on the Arizona resolution, Mr. McWherter was quoted as saying, "I really think the immigration issue is a federal issue, and what we need is a much better federal policy to protect our borders. It's got to be solved on a federal level."

I don't particularly care what pro-illegal alien groups think about much of anything. It would not surprise me to find half of them are illegals or have relatives who are illegals.
Anybody read the comments on the last thread on this subject? And how many tax dollars go to waste on these Escalade-driving criminals at the expense of OUR children?
I say the H*ll with the illegals. Let 'em starve, live in a shack, speak Spanish only, stay illiterate, or whatever...at least until they go back to Mexico and wait their turn to legally enter.
Charity begins at home, not in Mexico.
Can't believe that I am saying this but I TOTALLY agree with rolando on this. What in the heck is wrong with letting local jailers check immigration status? They do this in all of the other countries.
I guess this worries local construction companies, the chicken plants, the mushroom company, people with cheap gardeners, and pool boys. What! Just WHAT is the problem with this bill?
There is no problem with this bill. It just makes common sense and I am proud that Bredeson used his head in making this decision. And I am in agreement with Wamp that said there is still more to do. Of course McWherter would not be able to be reached for a comment.
I continue to be amazed about the opposition to laws curtailing the immigration of illegals in this country. Often I find people should use common sense approaches to national problems by treating them as they would run their own home life.
If someone entered your house illegally, would you bid them stay? Offer them free food forever? Promise to educate their children out of your budget? Pay for their medical needs, and those of their family that came with them? Tell them you would adopt any children born while living in your home and make them family members (citizens)? All without charging them (taxes) for the expenses you incur? I think not. But that is exactly what some propose by ignoring the rapidly escalating problem. Eventually this magnanimous attitude will sink this nation, just as it would ruin your family's future.
Those who favor such a lenient treatment are the same who would look at their mounting family debt and decide to spend more rather than cutting spending or finding ways to increase their income. Really? You believe the pain of cutting back is wrong and would borrow more? Glad I am not your child.
I really, really dislike Phil. I think he's a shame to the democratic party. Well, to tennessee. Well, ok, period. I dont think he knows what being a demo or a republican either one stands for. Hes just bad. This is another example.
Look how people keep saying they want to be American, different from europe. Oh europe is bad, filthy socialists. Mind you most of them are our allies, ou best chums. People want to say "Oh but its differnt over here/over there" simply when it suits them. I get tied of the wisy washy back and forth.
You guys keep bouncing back and forth between wanting freedom, and a police state type government that locks down on everything. Your just sowing the breeding grounds for racism and class warfare to grow into bigger problems.
These laws are being done by the wrong people for the wrong reasons. It's largely about greed and racism, and paranoia.
A: Stop criminals from other countries from entering the US illegally
B: Properly handle them when we catch them.
C:It's up to employeers to make sure their employees in communications jobs have GOOD english skills, not good enough, because good enough, isnt. And that just pisses people off. But laws against language is wrong.
D:Stop hammering people just because someone else is another race, speaks another language, listens to another kind of music, is an immigrant, whatever. These laws will promote discrimination the way they are being made and will be abused. This is AMERICA. Dont turn it into Hitlers wet dream. Remeber, unless your native or black, your people were immigrants at some point too. Stop making laws to enforce discrimination and racism.
Typical WhiteKnight, Leftists are unable to handle real issues so they deflect the discussion and hide behind charges of racism and Facism. No one cares what color, or nationality the illegals are, they are ILLEGAL. What part of not enforcing the laws don't you get? What part of math escapes you? You do realize such foolishness will sink this country don't you. Continuation will bankrupt this country. If it is a Swede, or Canadian, or Italian, it still must be stopped. Where do you see race, language, or nationality discussed in all this?
It has nothing to do with the silliness you espoused. When do you think we should enforce the laws? And which ones? If you don't like the law, change it, otherwise obey it. You know when it becomes an issue you are exposed because your thoughts are illogical, and an overwhelming majority of Americans disagree with your stance. And it will become a huge factor in this fall's elections.
Leftists and Liberals want to selectively apply some laws strictly while ignoring others. Who do they think they are? They cannot stand up and debate issues on facts. This is about our border security, our financial health, and our respect for rules. You either want a lawless society or one where a select group determines how things are done. Be a man/woman and stand up for this country and stop the name calling for those who love this country and will fight to maintain it for our children. Injecting race into a debate about this is a shallow attempt to avoid confronting the issue. Grow up.
From the perspective of the average middle class American citizen, you can draw a parallel between the open Mexican border and the BP oil well that's pumping oil into the Gulf. The longer they remain unchecked, the greater the cost and damage.
From the perspective of the Democratic stragegist, it is like buying futures on the futures market. The number of babies born to illegal aliens in this country is approaching 1 million annually. Those born by November of 1994 will be elgible to vote in the 2012 elections, with the numbers growing exponentially with each year that passes. So, the more the merrier.
From the perspective of the business driven Republicans(the ones with the money/power), its all about short term gains. Never mind that we are headed towards a one party country, we will worry about that later, right now, there is money to be made.
Everyone needs to come to treams and face the facts and stop blaming people for who falt it is. Yeah sure there is a problem with illegals, but they are all not to blame on whats going on in this country. Everyone talking about jobs and say that all the "Illegals" are taking are jobs but face the FACT that not blacks nor white want the jobs they offer example working in fields in the hot summer picking tomatos or lettuce where are the people who want that job oh i forgot everyone wants to work sitting in a office in the AC.They want good jobs that pay good, and if you realize that almost all the black people are out on streets selling drugs while the "Government" pays there rent and living on government housing now you tell me when does the government pay for a Illegal housing???, and the white peole live of unemployment checks and yeah there are jobs out there but they dont want to work. Some blacks and white lieing in order to get foodstamps,and medicad in order to live cuz all the illegal are stealing the "JOBS" Well i dont understand if they are in such need why they driving there cars with rims and all pimped out???Oh and the Government stealing all the money in order to support there habits and good life the more they have the more there GREEDY;and yes there is a problem with the immgration law but what everyone dont understand is that its all about money at the borders between Mexico and USA ,everyone has a part of whats going on so stop fingre poing and face the fact with are eyes one wide and face the truth; Yes there is a problem and solving isnt about blaming just one group its about how are border patrol wont give up fighting just for money.
savarti, I never thought you would ever surprise me by anything you said anymore...but you surprised me with that one. Hope you had a GREAT day and will have an even GREATER holiday.
[Speaking of the Fourth, I wonder if its OK for our kids to wear their US Flag T-Shirts to school in celebration?]
honesty26, the unemployment rate is high enough to supply plenty of desperate people with the jobs they need. If they won't help themselves, so be it. Prisoners can do the work.

Looks like the Aussies are getting their very first zero-emissions-vehicle, the Blade Runner. Converted from the gasoline-powered Hyundai Getz (as seen above), the Blade Runner uses an AC motor powered by twin banks of lithium iron phosphate batteries and is capable of going up to 100 kilometers (62.5 miles) on a single charge. Although not particularly cheap at $35,000 for the retrofit (about $32,000 US), the Blade Runner is still the first of its kind in Oz, and it comes from a small manufacturer, Blade Electric Vehicles, the brainchild of Ross Blade.
According to this article, some new owners of the Blade Runner are even go so far as to charge their batteries using solar power. There's a short video of the car here, which shows Australian Democrats Leader Lyn Allison giving the Blade Runner a once-over. It seems that Blade Electric Vehicles is looking to secure a deal to provide electric cars to the government.

MEDINA, Ohio – The president of the Medina school board in northeast Ohio resigned as the district deals with questions about spending and the superintendent's compensation, which included about $265,000 for his college education bills.
The local teachers union criticized the Medina board's oversight and superintendent Randy Stepp's handling of the fund that supplied the payments for his education, The Medina Gazette reported. Board members have said they didn't realize the total was so high.
Board President Charles Freeman resigned Tuesday, calling the controversy a distraction from focusing on students.
It is my sincere hope that with new leadership, the board, union, teachers, administrators and community can again come together and place our collective focus where it belongs: on the kids, he wrote in a letter to the board.
John Leatherman, president of the Medina City Teachers Association, told the newspaper Freeman's resignation is probably the start of what needs to happen for the community and the district to heal.
Board members were expected to talk about a plan to improve spending oversight Wednesday night in Medina, about 30 miles southwest of Cleveland.
The board had encouraged Stepp's pursuit of a master's in business administration from Case Western Reserve University, which cost $93,000. Stepp, who had a master's and doctorate, also had $172,000 in college loans that were covered by the district under a 2011 modification of his contract.

A Louisiana man spent big bucks to get back man's best friend.
After his Blue Tick Hound passed away, he contacted cloning experts in South Korea for a second chance with the pooch.
Gator is one of only five or six cloned dogs in the United States.
"It's the most exciting thing I think we've done as a clinic," said Dr. Clark Cooper, "he's the same personality, the same bark. It is strange to me to see a 13-year-old dog and then see him started over as a clone puppy."
Veterinarian Cooper took tissue from Gator's predecessor, extracted, froze and preserved DNA from the sample and then sent it to one of only two men in the world who can successfully clone a canine.
While some dogs are cloned for scientific research, Gator was cloned to save a specific genetic line.
"He's one of a few in a family line that we can't produce, so we won't be able to have any more if we can't reproduce him," said Dr. Cooper.
The big concern is the cost. Dr. Cooper says cloning a dog costs about $100,000 or more.

His tale knows no bo
Nebraska Brace's memoir details a life of poverty, pimping, politics and, always, personality
PAUL GRONDAHL Staff Writer
Section: Capital Region, Page: B1
Date: Sunday, January 8, 2006
ALBANY - Nebraska Brace is stationed at the entrance to Sam's Club.
He offers a shopping cart to a teenager wearing a black T-shirt who strides through the sliding glass doors. The boy is speaking into a cellphone and ignores the greeter in a red vest emblazoned with the phrase, "It Pays To Be A Member." "You got it?" Brace calls out to the kid, who holds up a membership card and makes a beeline for electronics in the cavernous Crossgates Commons store.
"You ought to be in Hollywood!" Brace shouts as the teen disappears into a big-screen TV aisle without looking back.
There was a time when this Sam's Club greeter enjoyed his own brush with Hollywood, not to mention status as a Third Ward alderman and maverick Democrat who gave his Arbor Hill constituency a voice in Albany politics during an era when few blacks were heard from at City Hall.
"I like people. This job gets me out of the house and gives me a little extra pocket money," Brace says of his part-time work as a greeter for the past two years.
Now, Brace, born in Winston-Salem, N.C., in 1929, who traded Southern tobacco fields for the hurly-burly of the urban North, has chronicled his colorful life in a memoir, "A Man Named Nebraska: A Life Lived in Poverty, Pimping and Politics."
The juiciest parts take place on Green Street, amid the "Gut" in the city's South End, a notorious red-light district.
Brace's mom moved with her two young boys to Albany in the 1930s, fleeing an abusive husband and yearning to be closer to Brace's grandmother, who worked as a domestic for wealthy families in New York's capital.
Three generations lived in an apartment at 64 Green St., above a pool room, and young Nebraska - named in honor of his mother's Cherokee blood - was tutored in the ways of the street.
He describes in his story an education that involved alcohol, gambling, fighting and women. The last came courtesy of Gypsy, Green Street's highest-priced hooker, who drafted Brace into the oldest profession in the 1950s.
Brace - who earned street credibility as a good fighter, a flashy dresser and owner of a big Cadillac - was soon pimping for Gypsy, Janice and Tippin' Mary.
"I never had more than three women and I didn't like prostitution, but that's what you did in that neighborhood," Brace said. "I'm not proud of it, but it's the truth."
Brace began setting down his life story several years ago by speaking into a tape recorder. He later hired a college student to transcribe long hours of tape and a professional writer to help shape his manuscript.
Brace pulls no punches. He describes being sentenced to three years' probation for promoting prostitution in Grand Rapids, Mich., during a brief foray from Albany. He also was busted for making book on horses and running numbers at Nebbies, a newsstand he owned at 170 N. Pearl St., and at the VA hospital where he worked.
Brace speaks openly in the memoir about three failed marriages and his struggles to maintain a presence in the lives of his four kids.
"People have asked me to write my story for a long time," Brace says. "Whenever I do something, I take it all the way."
Brace is shopping the manuscript around with local publishers and hoping to earn back part of the few thousand dollars he's invested in the project.
Brace lives in the same small row house on Third Street in Arbor Hill where he's been for more than 30 years, surrounded by weedy lots and boarded-up buildings.
"This was a middle-class Polish neighborhood when I moved in, but they all fled long ago," he says.
Brace is separated from his third wife, Ann Marie, who's relocated to North Carolina due to respiratory problems.
"We're still friends and I love her," Brace says. "We just got to the point where we couldn't live together anymore."
Ann Marie's Place - a tiny brick soul food restaurant on the corner of Third and Swan streets that Brace and his wife ran for years - is boarded up, a crumbling presence on a street plagued by drug dealing and violence.
These days, Brace is a minor presence on the periphery of politics. He's still a Democratic commiteeman. "I don't have the juice to rock the boat anymore," he says.
Brace hasn't lost his gift of gab or his street style, though.
His graying shoulder-length pompadour is tucked beneath a brown felt cowboy hat. He wears a heavy sweater coat with a Southwest motif over a burgundy turtleneck and black leather Adidas high-tops. He traded in the Caddy for a black Mercury Grand Marquis (Presidential Edition) with the vanity plate 105NOB.
At Sam's Club, Brace stops to chat with folks who knew him when he had juice to spare.
Back when he battled with Mayor Erastus Corning 2nd, or worked in the Legislature for former state Sen. Howard Nolan, D-Albany, or landed a speaking part in the movie "Ironweed."
One of Brace's proudest accomplishments remains the award he received as the longest-tenured male member of Mount Calvary Baptist Church.
He rarely misses Sunday services.
"God has blessed me," he says.
Brace has written his memoir not as an obituary and not as the first step in plotting a political comeback. He's merely telling his story and setting the record straight.
"I still think I'd be good as the city's ambassador at City Hall," he says. "Meet and greet. I have a way with people."
As if to prove it, he paused in his reveries to greet another customer who came through the Sam's Club entrance.
"Be good, big man," Brace says, lightly touching the fellow's shoulder.
"Hey, Nebraska," a guy calls out from across rows of shopping carts, as he prepares to exit the store.
"You're looking good," the former city alderman yells back. "You're the man!"

3 of the Latest Developments in Optometry
With so many advancements in technology these days, almost every aspect in the society has received their fair share in the modernization of processes and standards. Among them is the field of optometry. As an optometrist for many years, I have seen these technologies evolved, seen how new techniques were discovered and how new tools have been put in place. All of these positive impacts of technology are certainly working towards the best of the people who are, in their own way, need of assistance.
As a doctor, I am personally watching out over these developments. Of course, I would not want to be behind when it comes to providing what I think would work best with my patients. Here are three of the latest developments in the field of optometry that I have seen so far:
Innovation in Contact Lenses
Contact lenses, by far, are considered as among the fastest growing topics in the field of optometry. As a matter of fact, during the last decade, there has been a considerable amount of developments in that particular aspect. Among those are the dominance and the existence of soft lens materials which are far more comfortable compared to the traditionally designed ones. Since the optical designs have significantly improved, optimization on distance vision is enhanced with the use of enhance range of clear focus, aspherics, mutifocals, as well as toric designs which is used for correcting astigmatism. At the same time, the technology of using silicone hydrogel has also increased oxygen permeability on the eye, improving ocular and corneal surface as a result. Plus, even fashion lenses are created to feed people's desire to exhibit fashion through their eyes.
Eye Tests Can Detect Early Stages of Alzheimer's
Just recently, it has been discovered that eye tests can now be done in order to detect early stages of Alzheimer's. This is done by detecting proteins present in the retina and lens that are commonly associated with the disease. The discoveries support a series of tests conducted which would eventually be used in detecting the earliest signs of Alzheimer's before it can start impairing the cognitive functionalities of the brain. The research conducted primarily focused on the ultimate detection of a protein called beta-amyloid, which may incorrectly fold to Alzheimer's. This is one of the root causes of the disease.
Human Corneas Can Be Regrown
A team of scientists composed of Harvard affiliated centers have attempted growing corneal tissue from the human eye to a mice through the use of human adult stem cells. This study was conducted in order to provide hope to individuals whose vision has been impaired or lost due to different reasons. This works supporting the concept that the cells making up our cornea are damaged constantly due to exposure to unlikely components of the outside world, and even through blinking. In order to repair this damage, the eyes have the capability to maintain a minimum number of 'limbar stem cells', at the cornea edge. This breakthrough is good news in the world of optometry.

1. Your weight may be a problem, but not the way you think.
"A girlfriend admitted to me that she's been really uncomfortable with her body recently, and it's affecting her sex life. She said, 'I can't get over how big my stomach feels, and when I'm in certain positions, all I can think about is how many rolls I have.' I asked her if there was anything she does like about her body. At first she said no, but when I pushed her, she said she liked her hands, her eyes, and her breasts. So I told her to try to focus on those positive things while having sex rather than on the negative, and ultimately to try to get out of her head and into her body. Because, trust me, he is not focusing on your stomachhe's just happy to be getting laid!" Rachel Needle, Psy.D., a psychologist at the Center for Marital and Sexual Health of South Florida
2. Treat your body as well as you'd treat his.
"I have a friend who had been outright lying to her husband about smoking for half a year. She told him she'd quit, but instead she started carrying around a small bottle of mouthwash to rinse with and a rubber glove to put on when she smoked so the smell wouldn't get on her hands. Of course he did finally catch her, and he was furious. She promised again that she'd quitbut still didn't. She truly didn't see that continuing to smoke meant she was choosing her love for cigarettes over her husband, and I told her that she was so addicted she needed to bring in every professional she could to get over it. She's working with a specialist now, as well as an acupuncturist for stress relief, and she's been smoke-free for a month. She says she's thinking of how much she loves her husband every time she wants to smoke, and it has been successful for now. When you ignore your own health, you're also ignoring the health of your marriage." Bill Farr, a relationship coach and author of The Power of Personality Types in Love and Relationships
3. You're being sexistand it's keeping you from being happy.
"A friend of mine was married to a guy who was very supportive, a great fatherbut completely incapable of holding down a steady job. She was at the end of her rope, and they were fighting all the time. My friend hadn't worked in years, since she had kids, but she was a very competent and organized person, so I recommended that she pursue a career and let him be the househusband. That was clearly what he was good at! It was a great solution. She found a job she loved, made the money, and he handled the kids and home. Once she got over her gender hang-ups, it clicked." Toni Coleman, a psychotherapist and relationship coach in McLean, VA
4. Let. It. Go.
"A friend and his wife had gone through a terrible timehe had been unfaithful, but they'd worked through it, stayed together, and had another baby. But every time I saw them, she'd throw out sarcastic comments about his past. She would belittle him and make disparaging remarks at every opportunity. One night, after a particularly bad episode, I told her that she was wrecking her marriage. I said, 'Yes, he cheated, and of course you were brokenhearted. But you decided to give it another go, and to constantly remind him of how much pain he caused, especially in front of others, is a divorce waiting to happen. This time you're the one doing the damage to the marriage. Whatever is in the past, leave it thereall that matters is the present and the future you're trying to build.' People say, once a cheater, always a cheater, but I disagree: I think cheating is a choice. She decided to give him a chance, and he chose to be a decent husband." Rochelle Peachey, Psy.D., a couples therapist and founder of her own online dating site, iloveyouraccent.com.

- Nomi's WaitFoodMcFoodlerDined on 11/7/2014I had scheduled a reservation back in September for my annerversary with my girlfriend in November, for which we had to wait an extra hour for them to seat us.

- NoMI is First RateOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 11/6/2014An outstanding dining experience. Recommended by a foodie friend who lived in Chicago for many years. We let them know when we made our reservation that it was our 30th anniversary.

The service, Food and Ambiance were as good as any you'll find in Chicago or anywhere else.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always stellar!OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 11/5/2014This is a place that you can count on to deliver high quality, thoughtfully and healthfully prepared food with great service every time. Always great wine choices as well.Special Features:
- Great food - poor serviceBrianDined on 11/4/2014I took 7 people here for a new hire dinner. Food was great - the service - not so much. I frequent Nomi often and really have not had poor service in the past. We waited -- to the point where I had to ask for a server for drinks. Our server wore a grimace the entire time and frankly treated the team poorly. Great food, poor service, unexpected experience from a local favorite.Special Features:
- ABdiningoutVIPDined on 11/2/2014I love the food here & can't wait to come. They all "know me" at Nomi;) ha. Have my favorite servers & mgrs. This past visit I was dissapointed:( It's not like then as I usually leave very happy & it's my absolute fav place. Not to mention it was my b/day & they forgot. I'll call to speak to mgr!:( We always spend close to $200 on brunch as I have my favorites I always get at least 2-3 smoothies always(waiter knows my order since I'm a frequent customer & always get same) oysters, banana bread absolute best & 2 choc croissants. Noticed menu changed, but still amazing! Very sad it wasn't up to par like always!! Plus they forgot 1/2 of to go order!!:(I would recommend this to a friend.
- First Class...ApotheosisVIPDined on 11/1/2014What a fine evening we had here on Saturday night. Table was located exactly as requested, which was even more impressive, considering that I asked for an earlier seating than originally reserved and they were very accommodating. fabulous view, excellent cuisine, very good wine selection. Server was outstanding.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Service and View in ChicagoOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 11/1/2014The service couldn't have been better. Ranks up there with the very best. The entire staff went way out of their way to make it a special night for my Wife's birthday and was very friendly and knowledgeable. The view is one of a kind and the food was spectacular and great wine list. It was a perfect dining experience on a beautiful night.Special Features:
- Great view & amazing serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 10/27/2014The service was great. Everyone was knowledgeable and friendly. The window seating view was beautiful. The pretzel bread was too salty and the pommes frites needed more seasoning. They were sort of dry. But the Market Fish was on point. Cooked perfectly.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Breakfast was Devine, super serviceAnnakayeVIPDined on 10/26/2014Enjoyed every minute of our breakfast ..delightful staff and yummymfoodSpecial Features:

- excellentOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/25/2014I really don't know where to start. I was celebrating an engagement. It was a night to remember. From the moment I arrived till the time we left. I was never, ever treated so special before. My future wife was in tears. I don't remember our waiters name and I apologize. But he and the staff were wonderful. This is something we will cherish forever. Thank you for the memory.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not Worth Your MoneyChiluvDined on 10/25/2014The view was spectacular however the food was subpar at best. I ordered the prime rib for $50 and it was so small and cold. My husband ordered the lamb chops for $45 and although he liked it we've definitely had better. Not worth your money.
- Good experiencereachbgkVIPDined on 10/25/2014My fav was the caramelized chicken thigh. The sauce was a bit on the sweeter side but thats the way I like it. Also got the veggie board. Some of the items were too salty. West coast oysters were great.
- Great place to dinerecordDined on 10/23/2014We enjoyed everything about this place. The food was great, service was wonderful, a great place to carry on a conversation!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- food was fantasticJulesDined on 10/23/2014Did find bones in fish after being told by two people all bones had been removed. Service was excellent, we had a fabulous window seat and it was our 15th wedding anniversary!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- NoMi remains high qualityiji93108VIPDined on 10/18/2014Great venue for a business lunch; quiet; quality food and serviceSpecial Features:
- Outstanding ServiceTravelingdinerVIPDined on 10/16/2014From the waiter to the sommelier to the busboy the service was knowledgable, friendly, personal and unobtrusive. The food was perfectly prepared and presented. The view gorgeous.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- NoMI delivers...Foodie1VIPDined on 10/16/2014A trendy, hip, hotel setting that delivers a very good dining experience. NoMI has a somewhat limited but creative menu. The food is attractively presented by attentive servers. I have eaten here several times in connection with a hotel stay and have never been disappointed. The sea bass was delicious on this visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- KPLNeighborVIPDined on 10/15/2014I love NoMI - we stayed at the Park Hyatt last week - so he'd a few breakfasts as well as 3 dinners... Kept going because it really offers consistently excellent food. Gave 4 stars on food vs 5 because the fruit and berries at breakfast each day were just so-so ( unripe melon, strawberries just past their prime).. But the homemade yoghurt was creamy, tart, and tasty.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pretty goodGoldCoastLocalDined on 10/15/2014The food was very good, the staff was generally attentive, but the kitchen was incredibly slow! We were there on a weeknight and it was not full, but it took 30 minutes to get a simple appetizer, then another 40! before dinner came out. The manager was exceptional and rewarded us with more wine and a nice dessert, which was a pleasant unsolicited surprise (and very good too), but if you're hungry or in a rush, be prepared to wait for a while. Probably a one-time place for me.Special Features:
- Lovely viewGatorInChicagoDined on 10/12/2014Took my mom and friend there for brunch and were seated by the window on a beautiful sunny day. The open kitchen concept is neat and the ambiance is wonderful. The food for brunch was good. Different selections, however, they were pricey. Definitely worth trying for a special occasion.Special Features:
- BontayGirlznite4Dined on 10/11/2014Girls' Night Out! Our weekend in Chicago included our scenic dinner here on Saturday night. Itv was awesome in all ways. At first we were disappointed with our table seating, which blocked the view by a big support wall. After we finished, we moved to a vacant table by the window and had another bottle of wine. Be sure to book early and to let the staff know if you have a special occasion. Great food. Great service.Special Features:
- Food and Views are GreatLizzie01Dined on 10/10/2014Started at the bar and enjoyed sushi. Moved to the dining room and had great soup, entree. Excellent wine by the glass list. Server was amazing, funny and knowledgable about the menu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- My favorite table in ChicagoKPLNeighborVIPDined on 10/10/2014Floating 7 floors above the Water Tower - with floor-to-ceiling windows - NoMI has my favorite view in Chicago. There are higher tables, but perched on the 7th floor you can people watch and see the lake... Service is professional and I feel special every time I eat there (which goes in waves since I don't live in Chicago). The menu changes seasonally ... but so far everything I've tried was worth the price. The sushi is an added plus (always the freshest, impeccably prepared).Special Features:
- Gus1Dined on 10/5/2014NoMi is a terrific go-to for almost any occasion or quiet place to linger.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exquisite!BoldMamaDined on 10/5/2014I loved the feel of the restaurant. It was quiet but not too quiet. We had an amazing view of Michigan Av and Lake Michigan from our table. The waitstaff was very attentive but not overly so. They even put our valet on the bill so I could pay it there and they had the car waiting for us when we were finished eating. Very convenient, especially since we were in a hurry after our meal. The food was delicious! The tilefish was perfectly cooked and the NoMI Greens salad was perfect. Just the right amount of dressing and the vegetables were so fresh! The desserts were unbelievably good! We had 3 different kinds and loved all of them. I don't think you could go wrong with any of the desserts. We will definitely come back here!Special Features:
- Fav place!!ABdiningoutVIPDined on 10/5/2014It's my absolute fav place!! I've been coming here for years. They all know me @ NOMI;) ha. My favorite waiter is Gabriel.He remembers me&treats me special everytime! I'm very picky-but the good here is the BEST!That's why I'm always recommending it!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Memorable eveningOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 10/4/2014I am so greatful to the manager/staff. We were celebrating my mothers 80th birthday and my sons engagement. We had a stunning view - a table in the back corner. I had made arragements for celebratory prosecco to be brought soon as we sat down for toasting. We ordered the Chateaubriand for two and the fish. the meal was excellent - the presentation couldn't have been better. I had arranged for dessert - I brought candles that spelled out Happy Birthday and Celebrate. It was a big surprise - each letter was in a small truffle, lit it made for a great ending to a memorable evening. The manager and staff did an excellent job implementing my surprise.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always Great!AllcowDined on 10/2/2014Have been a NoMi fan for years - mostly visited for breakfast. Took visiting family couple for lunch and again NoMi did not disappoint. The most friendly service, unique and creative menu, and relaxing environment. We enjoyed Chilean sea bass, chicken wraps, and BLT. Wonderful refreshing beverages. We will be back again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not overly impressed with NomiMrsLovettVIPDined on 10/1/2014Took some out of town visitors to dinner at Nomi and was decidedly underwhelmed. For one thing the menu lacks cohesion. We all kept on reading and rereading it trying to get a sense of where we were food-wise. Our waiter was a bit of a snot, clearly unimpressed with our guest's level of sophistication and clearly condescending. He put together a sushi, sashimi platter for us for our first course as if it was a high honor. It was solid - not Tokyo solid - just solid as were the two fish entrees we tried. My husband and I shared the whole fish which was meant for two. it came with a lovely potato puree which could have been hotter and was barely enough for each of us to have a quarter of a cup serving.Special Features:
- dosge57Dined on 9/28/2014It was a outstandin birthday night. Everything was perfect. Even the view. Thanks. Unforgettable.Special Features:
- NoMi Kitchen classicGregDined on 9/28/2014A high point in our Chicago trip. The service and food were top notch. This is a must return to restaurantSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Saved by serviceFazio55VIPDined on 9/27/2014Beautiful place located in the Hyatt off Michigan ave. outside seating is lovely. The food was a mix. Great apps, especially the beet salad, and great desserts, but the main course was so salty it was ridiculous. I hate sending food back so I forced most of it down, it being Tile fish, which was strange in texture. My girls pork chop was just as salty, but better quality. I told the waiter who surprisingly took it off our bill. Amazing gesture and we will return.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lovely experienceDawnVIPDined on 9/24/2014Our group was in the private dining room. Beautiful atmosphere, amazing view of Watertower Square, and wonderful dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great view; quiet dining!OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 9/22/2014Had a lovely quiet brunch here with my husband. Beautiful view, friendly waitstaff. Food was good but one item was forgotten by our server, which was brought after our meal and comped. Very relaxing experience. Would definitely go again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good but could be better!GaryCoVIPDined on 9/21/2014The sushi was top notch but the sea bass was cut too thickly and was very chewy due to the thickness and that it was overcooked.Special Features:
- 30th Anniversary CelebrationMicheleDined on 9/20/2014I enjoy going to NoMi for special occasion dinners. It's always a vibrant, and sophisticated crowd, and the service is really very good. Most importantly the food is excellent! We had a lovely time, a spectacular view at a window table. There are also several bar and dining options, a casual elegance, that allows you to enjoy samples of great food without breaking the bank.Special Features:

Report: Mariners might pursue Hamilton
Published On: Nov 15 2012 08:36:02 AM EST
Mariners president Chuck Armstrong told CBSSports.com that the team, led by general manager Jack Zduriencik, is still setting its course for free agency.
"We are going to have more money to spend," Armstrong said. "And we do need offense."
The Mariners ranked at the bottom of the American league this past season in numerous hitting categories, including battling average, total bases and runs.
Armstrong said Zduriencik "hasn't given me a proposal yet, so I can't gauge our level of interest yet" on Hamilton.
Hamilton hit .285 with 43 homers and 128 RBI in 148 games last season, his fifth with Texas.

Richard Smith, former editor of the
British Medical Journal, has jested that instead of scientific peer review, its rival
The Lancet had a system of throwing a pile of papers down the stairs and publishing those that reached the bottom. On another occasion, Smith was challenged to publish an issue of the
BMJ exclusively comprising papers that had failed peer review and see if anybody noticed. He replied, "How do you know I haven't already done it?"
As Smith's stories show, journal editors have a lot of power in science - power that provides opportunities for abuse. The life science industry knows this, and has increasingly moved to influence and control science publishing.
The strategy, often with the willing cooperation of publishers, is effective and sometimes blatant. In 2009, the scientific publishing giant Elsevier was found to have invented an entire medical journal, complete with editorial board, in order to publish papers promoting the products of the pharmaceutical manufacturer Merck. Merck provided the papers, Elsevier published them, and doctors read them, unaware that the Australasian
Journal of Bone and Joint Medicine was simply a stuffed dummy.
Fast forward to September 2012, when the scientific journal
Food and Chemical Toxicology (FCT) published a study that caused an international storm (Seralini, et al. 2012). The study, led by Prof Gilles-Eric Seralini of the University of Caen, France, suggested a Monsanto genetically modified (GM) maize, and the Roundup herbicide it is grown with, pose serious health risks. The two-year feeding study found that rats fed both suffered severe organ damage and increased rates of tumors and premature death. Both the herbicide (Roundup) and the GM maize are Monsanto products. Corinne Lepage, France's former environment minister, called the study "a bomb".
Subsequently, an orchestrated campaign was launched to discredit the study in the media and persuade the journal to retract it. Many of those who wrote letters to
FCT (which is published by Elsevier) had conflicts of interest with the GM industry and its lobby groups, though these were not publicly disclosed.
