Two sites for food giveaways
The annual Thanksgiving Feeding Alliance holiday food giveaway will offer two distribution sites today, but only one is available for those who haven't preregistered.
LECANTO — Alec Watson raced from the swings to the padded play area, where ring-toss and hula-hoops beckoned.
The look on his face said it all.
"I love it!" he shouted.
His grandfather, Lewis Smith, said Alec was really enjoying himself.
"I can't get him inside," he said.
Defendants in three of the murder cases moving through the county legal system were represented in court Thursday.
* Benjamin Robert Dick, 24, facing first-degree murder charges in the strangulation death of his mother, Jennifer Brooks, 42, was in court via video hookup. He was informed prosecution will be taking dental impressions, a noninvasive procedure, which will be filmed by his defense.
By Walter P. Wynn
Special to the Chronicle
On Tuesday, the Citrus County League of Women Voters hosted an informational presentation on growth management. Presenters were Jenette Collins, director of the Citrus County Department of Planning and Development, and Dan Kern, chairman of the of Government Affairs Committee of the Citrus County Builders Association and incoming CCBA president.
DUI arrests
* Michael Brocco, 24, of North Panda Bear Terrace, Dunnellon, at 3:55 p.m. Nov. 19 on a misdemeanor charge of driving under the influence. According to his arrest affidavit, Brocco was involved in a car accident and overturned his vehicle on County Road 488. Deputies discovered an open container of beer in the vehicle. He was asked to perform field sobriety tasks and did poorly. Brocco refused Breathalyzer testing to measure his blood alcohol concentration. His bond was set at $1,000.
INVERNESS — It's one thing to learn about history in a book. It's another to listen to a first-hand account.
On Thursday, the eighth-grade students of teachers Steffanie Grotz and Lauren Fenech at Inverness Middle School listened to Holocaust survivor Gene Klein, a Hungarian Jew, tell his story of surviving slave labor in Nazi concentration camps when he was a teenage boy.
A Citrus County deputy was vindicated Wednesday in district court after a Dunnellon woman filed a civil lawsuit in 2012 against the deputy and the sheriff's office.
According to a sheriff's office news release on Thursday, Deputy Andra Canfield became the target of the lawsuit filed by Leila Tarantino, 38, after a routine traffic stop the previous year.
Deputies conducted a traffic stop on Taratino in July 2011 after she was witnessed running a stop sign.
The Thanksgiving Feeding Alliance (TGFA), which provides a turkey and the fixings to Citrus County families in need on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, recently received a donation, thanks to Publix Super Markets and Thrivent Financial.
Publix customers are allowed to purchase a turkey to be donated to the TGFA by adding $8 to their bill at the check-out counter in any of the five stores in Citrus County.
Donations to any worthwhile cause are always a big deal, but Wednesday's check-passing was unlike any other.
About 30 community leaders braved the late-morning chill along County Road 486 as the philanthropic arm of the Citrus Memorial Health Foundation presented a $2.8 million check to the Citrus County YMCA.

Today, you might be a little closer to extremes than usual. Remind yourself as often as possible to use your power moderately. Don't exploit anyone who's weak or confused, and don't rage at anyone, period. You want your friends and family to act with you, not against you. So keep your head engaged and your emotions in check if they seem too strong. You know plenty of good healthy outlets.

Follow these steps for juicy, flavorful, crisp-skinned roast chicken every time.
To ensure even cooking, let the chicken stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before roasting. Discard any pop-up timers that come with the chicken; an instant-read thermometer gives a far more accurate reading.
Don't forget to salt the cavity of the chicken; this will season the meat more effectively than salting the skin. Stuff the cavity with aromatics like fresh herbs, garlic cloves, lemon wedges, and quartered onions to perfume the meat.
Add even more flavor by rubbing herbs, spices, or seasonings between the meat and skin. To accomplish this, use your fingers to gently separate skin from flesh, including thigh and leg areas, starting from the neck end and working your way back. Distribute seasoning under skin of each chicken, dividing evenly.
Trussing helps the chicken keep its shape and cook more evenly during roasting. Although traditional trussing involves tying the whole body of the chicken together, it is much easier to just tie the legs together with kitchen twine.
Either place a rack in your roasting pan or arrange a single layer of onion slices in the bottom of the pan to form a bed for the chicken. The onion will flavor both the chicken and the pan gravy, and it will prevent the chicken skin from sticking to the pan (or rack) and tearing.
Let the chicken rest for at least 15 minutes before carving; this allows the juices to collect in the meat instead of in the well of your cutting board.

Posted February 8, 2013--- 6:40 p.m.
Killed last month, Jennifer Boyce's memory lives on-- her impact on the community is apparent.
"She was inspirational and funny. She's just one of those people that everybody loved," said Lisa Bell, executive director of Madison Dental Initiatives.
She was heavily involved in physical fitness, training at SBR Coaching for the 2011 Iron Man
Lisa and several others she trained with are remembering her tonight through an event she would have loved-- a 24 hour winter cycling relay challenge.
Madison Dental Initiative, who provides on site dental care to the homeless, was selected to get the money raised this year.
But executive director of the initiative and long time friend and colleague of Jenny wanted half of the proceeds to go towards Domestic Abuse Intervention Services in Jenny's name.
With 135 people registered and even more expected, it's sure to make an impact on the community just like Jenny.

It's easy to think that just because your Facebook page has more than 1,000 fans that you're doing well in the social media world. That might be so, but there is no way to know just from the number of fans, followers or connections.
Social networks are all about sharing: news, images, accomplishments, questions, recommendations and of-the-moment nuggets of information. Here's a humorous (and accurate) take on the difference between social media tools:
Meet anywhere at anytime with an Internet connection and one of these great tools. All offer a free trial.
Next time you need to send a fax, use your smartphone. Fax apps allow you to take a photo of a document, crop it, spruce it up and then send it out.
Hold a mobile device at eye level to avoid "text neck." Dr. Dean Fishman adopted the phrase after seeing a huge influx of younger patients visiting his chiropractor facility ... Avoid writing redundant combinations that give readers a sense of "deja vu all over again" ...
Tips for better searching, from Alexandra Samuel's "Love your life online" blog: 1. Beef up your syntax. 2. Add another search engine to your browser. 3. Try Delicious, rather than Google.
Increased workloads … tighter deadlines … fewer resources. All of these have conspired to put a premium on employees' ability to remain focused on the details of their jobs. Here are five free or low-cost sources of online courses, games, tests and other materials designed to measure and improve attention to detail.
To achieve your goals, you may also need a little help from apps: 21Habit.com, Livifi.com, HealthMonth.com and Stickk.com.

My name is Kazim and I'm extremely passionate about the sports in general. I remember when I was in the UK and I was going to school, how we would train in the intense cold and how that helped us in becoming unbeatable and unbreakable soccer players. This was rigorous training sessions but at the same time I was having fun and not caring about winning or losing but enjoying the game of soccer. I have 4 years of experience as I was the captain of my University soccer team and also played as the striker. Additionally, it's not just soccer I'm good at, I can also give lessons on Table Tennis, Volleyball and Basketball.

Express then extreme in chain
Ok, so I have an Express in the house and am thinking about getting an Extreme - mainly so I can set it up with a hard drive to replicate a 'Timemachine'. Would there be any disadvantage technically or in performance if my chain was: modem into Express then wirelessly to the Extreme? I'm thinking I could keep the Extreme in a cupboard with the hard drive cos if someone should break in they'd have first pick of my Extreme and back up drive if located by the modem at the front door.

Should work well. However, Apple will not provide support for the use of Time Machine on an external hard drive connected to an Extreme, only one connected to the Time Capsule.

MMCC Arranges $17M Bridge Financing Loan

ST. JOSEPH, MI—Marcus & Millichap Capital Corp. (MMCC), a provider of commercial real estate financing and capital markets expertise, has arranged a $17-million loan for the construction of a luxury boutique hotel and marina here.
The three-year, interest-only loan featured a 70% loan-to-value advance.
Dean Giannakopoulos in the firm's Chicago Downtown office and Steven Rock in its Manhattan office arranged the loan.
According to the company, the financing timeframe was tight, in part because of the 75th Anniversary Senior PGA tour event, which will be held on the PGA signature golf course adjacent to the hotel's location.
The property is located near the waterfront of Lake Michigan. It will have 92 guestrooms, 14 luxury condominiums, conference space, a spa and a 60-slip marina.

For the past few years, the talk of The Lodging Conference in Phoenix had been focused on the economic recovery, solid industry projections and "cautious optimism."

So you're about to be killed by an Alien: A modern teen's guide
Recently, you've found yourself in the position of imminent death by alien. But maybe there's hope! (There's probably not hope.) Anyway, here's a list of ways to be certain you're about to be killed in a truly gruesome way.
1. Are you a crew member aboard an interstellar ship of some sort?
Or maybe you're a marine from the future, or a criminal on a prison planet or whatever the fourth movie was about.
2. Is there an android aboard with its own shady agenda?
Have you got the Ian Holm model or the Michael Fassbender model on board? I mean, either way you're toast, but one of the androids is Michael Fassbender.
3. Is your name Ellen Ripley?
It's not, you say? Well … that's a shame.
4.Did your idiot crew mate Kane run off and get some sort of hideous monster with acid for blood attached to his face?
And then did the rest of you morons bring him on board instead of being all, "It was nice knowing you, Kane! Enjoy being an alien incubator! Rest in peace!"
5. Then, after your idiot crew mate Kane seemed to recover from having a hideous monster stuck to his face, did none of the rest of you think maybe it didn't just fall off and die?
It's called "Survival of the Fittest," for a reason, you guys.
6. After your unfortunate crew mate Kane succumbed to the injuries of having birthed a hideous space monster out of his chest, did you decide to hold a makeshift memorial for him rather than killing the creature while it was still relatively harmless?
It's nice to honor your crew mates, but Kane would've wanted you to avenge his death first.
7. Are you working for the Weyland-Yutani Company, which puts profits before the safety of its employees?
You'll know for sure if you intercept a message to the evil android on board that declares "Crew is expendable."
8. Is your ridiculously outdated (despite being from the future) technology no use against the terror that is stalking you?
I mean, how can you travel through space and have computers on board that look like Atari systems?
9. You're absolutely sure your name's not Ellen Ripley?
Yeah, the aliens get her in the end too, but her life expectancy is a tad longer than everybody else's. Also, she gets cloned!
10. In space, can anyone hear you scream?
No. No they cannot.
So you think you're dating a mad scientist: A modern teen's guide
Everybody loves a mad scientist. And lucky you! You just so happen to be dating one! … You think.
Let's just make sure, shall we?
1. Oh, your boyfriend is mad, all right. Very mad indeed. But it turns out that instead of science, his obsession is millinery.
Interesting story! The famous courtesan Kitty Fisher was a milliner before she became a courtesan. Later, she died of lead poisoning due to the ingredients in the popular face makeup of the time.
(Shut up! Learning things is fun!)
2. Your boyfriend is mad, and also a scientist. Also, he has a pet monster.
And sometimes, people call the monster by your boyfriend's name.
3. OK, your boyfriend is a scientist, AND he's mad, and he's also really, really old.
And from the future!
4. Madness is a trait of your boyfriend's, and maybe he's a scientist, but probably not. Also, his name is Max.
And he's Mel Gibson before he went mad.
5. So let's say your boyfriend is a genius scientist who happens to be mad. Should you feel badly about two-timing him with his evil self?
6.Your boyfriend's mad, a scientist, and Edison hates him soooo much.
He's probably just jealous that they'll get David Bowie to portray him in the movies.
7. For your birthday, he got you a puppy.
And its DNA had been spliced with a human's, and it's miserable, and you're miserable, and you all live miserably together on an island.
8. He travels to other universes!
And has a pet cow.
9. He might be mad, he's definitely a warrior, and he battles evil.
And hangs out with Warwick Davis.
(It's a Willow reference. Get it?)
10. He travels through time in elegant fashion, and has awesome (?) hair.
Some folks might say you could do better than dating Doc Brown, but some folks are crazy.
There you go. Unless you're dating the Mad Hatter, Mad Max or Madmartigan, then you're definitely dating a mad scientist. I hope this helped you. I know it helped me.
So you think you're dating Keanu Reeves: A modern teen's guide
So, lately, I've noticed that Keanu Reeves hasn't been too busy ruining movies I would otherwise want to go see with his wooden, wooden acting. That means he must have plenty of time for dating right now! He might even be dating you!
(But probably not!)
Let's find out anyway:
1. Is your boyfriend a terrible, dreadful, incredibly wooden (yet attractive) actor?
Chances are he's Keanu Reeves, but he could maybe be Channing Tatum too.
2. Does he ever smile?
I'm not sure Keanu Reeves does that.
3. Was he pretty good in The Matrix, though?
Laurence Fishburne was pretty good in The Matrix.
4. How about trench coats? Does he look good in those?
And not, like, I don't know, kind of stubby and stupid?
5. Was he John Constantine once, because, apparently, Hollywood doesn't know what "Blond" and "British" are?
"That's the same thing as 'brunette' and 'bad actor,' right?"
6. Would he be horribly miscast as Spike Spiegel?
Oh, God, wouldn't he, though?
7. Have you tried convincing him to model instead?
"I'm an actor," he replied.
8. "Sweetheart, I really think you should consider it," you said, gently.
"What are you, a film critic?" he said.
9. "No, honey, I'm just a person who enjoys watching films, except when you are in them, because you're just … well … really bad at them."
"How come I keep getting cast in them, then?" he answered.
10. "Blackmail? Are you blackmailing someone?"
You're blackmailing someone, right?
So, to answer your question: You're probably not dating Keanu Reeves. At least, not anymore, because that last conversation really hurt his feelings.
Satan has a place reserved for thee!
Now, some sins aren't even, well, "sins," per se, but they're still very annoying, and almost assuredly there's a special spot in hell for people who do these things.
Here's a list of 10 things that make me hope you spend at least a few months of your eternity suffering for your transgressions:
1. People who don't pull over for ambulances. This. Pisses. Me. Off. So. Much. Like, where could you possibly be going that is more important than the people who are trying to save someone's life? Pull over! You suck! I hate you!
2. People who throw cigarettes out their car windows. I hate littering in general, but it really, really, really ticks me off when people throw cigarettes out their windows. Because all cars have ash trays in them, Christ. True story: I went to visit one of my friends in Whitefish, Montana, and she was working as a firefighter that summer. We were driving along, and she flicked her still-lit cigarette out the window into the very dry, dry, dry bushes. "What is that, job security?" I said. "Ha, ha, ha," she said. We haven't spoken since.
3. People who don't put their shopping carts away. Once, there was an old guy parked right next to the cart rack and he didn't put his shopping cart away. As I put mine away, and put his away too, I shouted to him, "Hey, did you notice? There's a cart rack right here? It's right next to you!" Really, it's a miracle nobody's murdered me yet.
4. People who switch lines when the sales clerk says "I can help whoever's next," and they aren't next. A woman did that when there was this really, really old, fragile lady in front of her who'd been waiting much longer, and I loudly declared, "I believe this lady in front of you was next, why don't you wait your turn?" And she ignored me, because she was a double bitch.
5. People who think they're better than you because your job requires you to help them. Not too long ago, one of our customers said to me, "What would you know? You're just a receptionist." I thought to myself: "I know you're an asshole. That's something."
6. People who "correct" you when they're actually wrong. "I think you spelled 'interment' wrong," the family said to me. "Really?" I said. "Because I've done 50 obituaries this week alone, and you've only done one." (In real life, I said it much nicer, of course.)
7. People who chew gum constantly. I understand that some people are very concerned about their breath, but when you look like a cow gnawing cud at Grandma's funeral, it's time to look into breath mints.
8. People who don't say "thank you" when you hold open the door for them. I always say "You're welcome" very loudly, and sometimes, they are shamed into saying "thank you." Other times, I guess they are deaf-mutes.
9. People who play their car stereos so loud you can feel it. Look, I know you're really proud of your taste in music, but it is causing me physical pain.
10. People who insist on driving under the speed limit until the light's about to turn red and then they blast through it, leaving you to wait and curse them and their descendents unto their dying days.
So you think you're dating Ogami Itto: A modern teen's guide
Everyone likes your new boyfriend.
"He's a big improvement over that Egyptian mummy you were dating," they say.
But what they don't know is that your boyfriend is actually the assassin known as Lone Wolf and Cub: Ogami Itto. Or is he?
No, he totally is.
Here's a list that proves it:
1. Your new boyfriend is a samurai — more specifically, he's actually a ronin.
You know who used to be a samurai but then became a ronin? Ogami Itto! Ogami Itto did that very thing I said!
2. And not only is he a ronin (a.k.a. a masterless samurai, for those of you who aren't quite as obsessed with Japanese culture as the rest of us), he's a skilled assassin!
My goodness! Your boyfriend is also a skilled assassin. What a coincidence! Except not, because your boyfriend is probably Ogami Itto!
3. Also, he's got this cute little kid that tags along everywhere with him.
And he goes by Ogami Daigoro (because in Japan, last names come first), and omigod, he is the cutest little kid ever, but don't get on his bad side, because, seriously, he'll cut you.
4. Not only is your new boyfriend a ronin, an assassin and a father, he's also on the demon's path of revenge (meifumado, as it's known to the samurai) to avenge his wife's murder and the sullying of his family name.
Kind of hard to believe he manages to find the time for dating with all that going on his life, you know?
5. Sometimes he talks about his mortal enemies, the Yagyu, and how it's a shame they couldn't have remained noble samurai.
Because he's a noble samurai, even with all the killing for money.
6. Your biggest competitors for your boyfriend's love are prostitutes and thieves.
For some reason, those ladies are just crazy for Ogami Itto.
7. When you go out on dates, you're often targeted for murder by covert forces, such as ninja or other ronin or bounty hunters.
Probably not Boba Fett, though. Unless you're in some sort of awesome crossover universe, in which case, can I come visit you there?
8. Also, he always brings his sword everywhere with him, because his sword is his samurai soul.
Yup, sounds like Ogami Itto all right.
9. Does he hardly ever get killed, except when his enemies resort to underhanded tactics?
And then he totally does get killed? And then you cry a little bit because it was so sad?
10. And, finally, is your boyfriend about to get ruined by a Hollywood movie?
"But why would Hollywood ruin a classic samurai epic?" you wonder. "What could possibly be in it for them?"
Yes, your new shoes are haunted
There's no doubt about it. Your new shoes are haunted. Hell, they couldn't be more haunted if they tried.
So how did you end up with a pair of haunted shoes?
(Really? You can't remember? It must be all the possessing of your soul that's been going on.)
Here's the story of how you ended up with haunted shoes, told in 10 easy steps, because I'm running out of supernatural beings for teenaged girls to date:
1. We told you not to go to the murder house. But would you listen to us? No. No, you would not. "Don't go to the murder house," we said. "What's that?" you replied. "I wasn't listening, because I'm too busy going off to the murder house."
2. "And if you must go to the murder house, don't buy anything at the estate sale," we suggested.
But you were all hot to buy something at the murder house, weren't you? "If I buy something at the murder house estate sale, then I'll be the owner of something that I bought at the murder house estate sale," you said, both logically and repetitively.
3. So you went to the murder house estate sale, despite our strenuous objections, and there you began bidding. Really, you wanted to get the murder house steak knife set, which wasn't actually used in the commission of any murders in the murder house, but still seemed pretty cool and possibly like it might be worth something on e-bay. "Genuine murder house steak knife set," you considered as a listing.
4. Unfortunately, the bidding went a little beyond your price range, and someone else ended up with the steak knife set as well as the dead-eyed porcelain doll. To tell you the truth, we think you dodged a bullet there. Haunted shoes are bad enough, but those porcelain dolls are instruments of Satan himself.
5. But when the haunted shoes came up, you managed to score them. "What's a little blood on shoes?" the auctioneer said, while his assistant held up the blood-stained shoes while wearing a thick pair of gloves. "It gives them personality," the auctioneer encouraged.
6. So when the estate sale was over, you went home with a pair of bloody shoes. "In fact," you thought to yourself, "there seems to be even more blood on them now than when I first bought them, sort of like that elevator of blood in The Shining."
7. And that's when the haunting began. First it was the ghostly rapping and footsteps, and then it was the brief appearance of apparitions standing at the edge of your bed just as you were about to drop off to sleep, and finally it was the possessions.
8. That's right, I said "Possessions." We told you and told you: "Don't wear the blood-stained shoes you bought at the murder house estate sale. Are you crazy?" "But they fit so nicely, and they're quite stylish," you said, and slipped them onto your feet, and slipped off into some kind of fugue state.
9. And that's how you ended up here. "Here?" Yes. In the murder house, gripping a set of steak knives and a dead-eyed porcelain doll. Also, you were moaning something about your eternal slumber being disturbed and how all must pay and something about "this soul now belongs to us."
10. So, anyway, yes, your shoes are haunted, and, yes, your soul is now in the possession of the spirits that haunt the murder house. But if you manage to get control of your faculties long enough to throw the haunted items out the window to us, we promise we'll put them up on e-bay in your memory.
So you think you're dating a (lady) mutant: A modern teen's guide
Guys, I know it's hard out there in the dating world, what with all the ladies dating the vampires and werewolves and what-have-you. And what have you got for mythical creatures? Ha! Mermaids, if you're lucky.
But the good news is: you have found a girl. She seems nice, doesn't she? But lately, you've noticed, she's acting a bit … well … mutated.
So perhaps you're dating a mutant?
Let's find out.
1. Does your special lady friend have the power to read your mind and also turn her body into diamond-like substance, rendering her almost impossible to harm?
That doesn't seem fair, you know. Maybe if she wasn't hogging all the superpowers, there'd be more left for the rest of us.
2. Can she walk through walls?
Not in a ghosty way, more like in a telephase-y kind of way?
3. When you kiss, does she absorb your life energy?
Possibly sending you into a coma, depending on said kiss's intensity?
4. Can she control the elements of nature?
And does she have a kind of stupid name?
5. Does she sometimes get possessed by something called the Phoenix Force and then try to destroy the universe or something?
Also, did she kill you in the third X-Men movie and you immediately rebounded to Superman's ex-girlfriend?
6. Do people keep asking you why you're two- and three-timing your girlfriend, and where did all those hot ladies come from anyway, and what do they see in you?
"Guys, she's a shapeshifter," you protest, and they roll their eyes?
7. Does she have a band, sometimes roller-skates, likes disco and pretty lights?
And does she have a ridiculously bad superhero name?
8. Speaking of pretty lights, can she create plasma explosions?
Also, did she later lose her mutant powers and get turned into a vampire and … really? Gods, no wonder I don't read any X-Men series.
9. Is she scarlet and also a witch?
You could do worse.
10. Does she only have one eye and live in the future?
Stop dating her! She and Phillip J. Fry are meant to be together, dammit!
So, to answer your question: Yes, without a doubt, you are absolutely dating a mutant.
So you think you're dating Wolverine: A modern teen's guide
What with all the mutants out there, it's hard to tell which one you're dating. It could be anyone, really. But it's probably Wolverine, because, man, does that guy get around.
But how can you be certain to a passably certain extent?
By checking out this handy-dandy guide, that's how.
1. Is your boyfriend short and hairy?
But not too short and hairy.
2. Does he sometimes look like Hugh Jackman?
Who doesn't want to date the Hugh Jackman Wolverine?
3. Does he still carry a torch for his old girlfriend?
Except she wasn't really his girlfriend because she was engaged to this other guy, and then she died, and then she came back and … it's complicated, okay?
4. Does he suffer from amnesia?
Not anterograde amnesia though. Just regular old retrograde amnesia?
5. Sometimes, when he's alone in the bathroom, do you hear a sound like "Snikt"?
"What's that, honey?" "Nothing! Leave me alone!"
6. Does he have a mutant healing power?
Also, he doesn't age, like Elijah Snow, except less awesome?
7. How 'bout an adamantium skeleton? Has he got one of those?
"Dammit, I told the airport security already that I've emptied everything out of my pockets."
8. Does he sometimes talk about his old girlfriend, the weather goddess chick?
Wolverine dated Storm, right?
9. When he goes places, like other comic book titles, does it automatically make them sell better?
Everybody loves Wolverine.
10. Last but not least, does he suffer a fatal weakness in battles against Magneto?
Unless it's one of those times when adamantium is a magical metal that Magneto can't affect?
So you think you're dating a Muppet: A Modern Teen's Guide
Lately, it's been hard to find the time to screw around at work, and even harder to convince myself to use the computer at home in the basement, which is 10 degrees colder than the rest of the house. Which is why this Muppets-related madness is so late!
Anyway, ladies? You think you're dating a muppet, maybe? Let's find out.
1. You asked your dad about your new boyfriend, and his response was: "Well, it's not quite a mop, not quite a puppet, but man … So, to answer your question, I don't know."
2. Your boyfriend often sings about being green, and he's not just talking about his hybrid vehicle. Also, he sings it.
3. You've noticed that his movements are often jerky, as if, perhaps, he is being pulled along by strings.
4. Also, your main competition for his affections is livestock.
5. Plus, he seems kind of … felt-y.
6. And he hasn't got, you know, internal organs and all that stuff.
7. He lives on Sesame Street.
8. Possibly he's not humanoid, but more like, I don't know, a talking frog or maybe some sort of hairy red thing that … what the hell is that, anyway?
9. He knows Amy Adams.
10. Seriously. He's not a mop and he's not a puppet, so to answer your question …
So you think you're dating a unicorn: A modern teen's guide
Lately, you've noticed your boyfriend isn't like the other mythical creatures. He's more four-legged and neighs and eats hay and stuff.
Maybe my darling Timothy is a unicorn, you think, as you sit beside him at the drive-in theater, holding his hoof.
But how can you be sure?
By using this handy-dandy checklist is how you can be sure! So let's get to it.
1. Does he have a horn?
We're not talking trumpets or cutesy little nicknames for his … well, you know. We're talking a horn smack dab in the middle of his forehead.
2. Also, does he mostly look like a horse, except for that horn smack dab in the middle of his forehead?
Although some people claim that unicorns look more like goats.
3. Are you a virgin?
Now don't go blaming me for this. It's just flat out well-known that this is a preference for unicorns. Unless, I suppose, you're dating one that goes more for pureness of heart than for pureness of the lady bits.
4. Does his horn (that we previously ascertained is an actual horn, not a trumpet and not a nickname like "Mr. Wiggles") have magical properties?
Again, this horn is not in his pants.
5. When you go on dates, are you often refused entry as the clerk/shop owner/bartender points to the sign "No Pets Allowed"?
"He's not a pet, he's my boyfriend!" you might proclaim.
6. Does that lady who married a dolphin laugh at your taste in men?
And she married one of the bastards of the sea!
7. Does Tim Curry keep pestering you two, wanting to rid the world of all goodness or something?
Oh, please, did you seriously think you were getting out of this thing without at least one Legend reference?
8. When you talk about riding your boyfriend, you're not actually talking about sex?
"Thanks to my darling Timothy, I always make it to school on time!"
9. Just for clarification: Horn. Middle of forehead. Not in pants.
Seriously, girls, just because your boyfriend says he has a horn doesn't mean he's a unicorn. It means he's a teenage boy.
10. When you're served poison, does he dip his horn into it to neutralize its properties?
Apparently, unicorn horns can do that. Not teenage boys though, because what teenage boy in his right mind would go about dipping his tender bits in poison?
Well, there you go, ladies. You're dating a unicorn.

Filler: Is prostitution really the biggest problem in Nassau County?
In a month-long sting operation begun in April by the Nassau County Police Department and the district attorney's office, 104 men were arrested for soliciting prostitutes.
Called "Operation Flush the Johns" (oh, to be a fly on the wall at the meetings where they argue over operation names), the plan involved creating online advertisements for escorts, getting men to agree to meet up at a hotel, videotaping them agreeing to pay for sex with undercover cops posing as prostitutes, then arresting them, charging them and, as of Monday around noon, publicizing their names and mugshots.
It should be noted, if only because it's fascinating and confirms so many suspicions about the general moral superiority of women, that attempts were also made to lure female customers via Internet ads, but not one responded.

Incredulity and giggles aside, however, "Flush the Johns" raises some serious questions.
* Why was this suddenly such an important crime to focus on? According to Division of Criminal Justice Service statistics, a total of 39 people had been arrested on such charges in Nassau County … over the past decade. More than 100 in a month shows a pretty serious change in emphasis, and one that goes beyond this sting, and beyond prosecuting customers. In 2012, 26 cases involving prostitution charges were resolved in Nassau. This year there have already been 140 prostitution arrests.
* Is this the best use of policing resources? The answer could be "yes." But in order for the answer to be "yes," some very serious negative effects of prostitution in Nassau have to be shown, not just implied. No one wants prostitutes being mistreated, enslaved or endangered. If it's a big problem, and if this is the right way to attack it, we would like to see the evidence.
* Is the migration of prostitution-seeking from the public roads to the Internet a positive, rather than a negative? Prostitution, as old as society itself, won't ever disappear. That being the case, would we rather have its negotiations soiling computer screens and smart phones or street corners?
Nassau District Attorney Kathleen Rice has never shied away from the spotlight. In fact, she sometimes seems drawn to it like a moth to a porch lamp. But her ability to shine publicity on important issues has also done a lot of good -- her focus on attacking DWIs and their culprits being a prime example.
Now she's undertaken another crusade that's going to garner a ton of attention. Her challenge is to convince Nassau residents that these alleged johns deserve their shame, and prostitution deserves this level of focus and resources.

Was the monthlong crackdown on people soliciting prostitutes a good use of Nassau County resources?

Communicating early and often with your child's teacher is an important aspect of ensuring your child has the best possible education. Yet, sometimes parent-teacher conferences can be stressful for a variety of factors. In this article we provide a how-to guide for making the most out of your parent-teacher conference experience.
The Common Core State Standards were developed as a means to prepare K-12 students for success in college or the workforce upon graduation from high school. Since their inception, they have been adopted by 43 states. While much support has been given for the standards, many criticisms have emerged as well.
Increasing birth rates among immigrant families from Asia and Central and South America, combined with lower birth rates among white families, means that for the first time in history, public school students in the United States are majority-minority. This shift in demographics poses difficulties for schools as they work to accommodate children of varying language abilities and socio-economic backgrounds.

I worked at ORIX USAPros
Including bonuses, compensation is excellent if you are a high achiever. ORIX is generally good with hours, vacation time, and maternity leave. Frequent acquisitions keep things interesting and usually move ORIX up into higher classes in terms of of pay, perks, and benefits. Some A players, and a lot of nice folks.Cons
Without bonuses, salaries are sub-par. Bonuses are essentially deferred compensation that you end up working all year to receive, and forfeit if you leave. Corporate identity is fragmented, usually dominated by the most recent acquisition. The emphasis on the bottom-line sometimes results in a decline in quality, perks, and team-building activities. Somehow, despite its better-than-average compensation, ORIX seems cheap. It's a good place to grow until you hit a ceiling, since there is generally low turnover in upper management.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Modify the "bottom line" approach to emphasize excellence and teamwork. Encourage high performers with more than just an annual cash bonus.RecommendsNo opinion of CEO

Marie C. SalerniFebruary 12,2013
Marie C. SalerniMarie C. Salerni
Marie C. Salerni, 87, of Rutland, died February 9, 2013, at her home.
Marie, a dedicated family woman, is best remembered for spending countless patient hours with her grandchildren. What she taught them cannot be measured and it continues to grow. A self-educated naturalist, she took great delight in the nature of the smallest and most delicate. She loved the flowers and birds, but it was the humming birds, the chickadees and the fragile wild flowers she found on the forest floor that brought her the most joy. Whether it was stopping on the roadside to pick berries or having the occasional cigarette with a dear friend, she never missed the value of the simple moments. Wendy, she loved you like a sister. You cannot know the comfort your selfless friendship provided her.
Maries final passage was eased by many gentle souls. To Lois and Cathy, the many tasks you performed at all hours day and night gave her great comfort. To Chad and Shirley, thanks for being there. Rev. Dodson, your prayers had a remarkable effect on her. Dr. McCormick, the nurses and aides of hospice, thank you, all.
Private services will be held at the convenience of the family.MORE IN Obituaries1125 RH Obits Young brief no photo no flag Full Story1125 RH Obits Brown paid photo no flag Full Story1125 RH Obits Rebideau paid no photo flag Full Story

Can this fan be installed WITHOUT the light kit?
ATG Stores Answer
Hi,I checked with the manufacturer and the answer is YES-it can be used without the light kit that is included. It will come with a cap if you don't want to use the light kit.

I was looking for a certain light/fan combination and couldn't find it in any of my local stores. Looked it up on line and found your site and you had exactly what I wanted, AND it didn't cost me an arm and a leg! Thank you so much...I LOVE MY FAN!

The fan is beautiful and so is the light fixture with it. It really upgraded my bedroom. The color on the pine side is very light with faux pine finish.
