Pellet gun vandalism continues in Rutland areaBy Brent Curtis
STAFF WRITER | January 24,2013A vandalism spree involving the use of a pellet gun to shatter car windows in the Rutland area continued for a second day with about 30 reports, according to Rutland City Police.
On Wednesday, police in the city fielded complaints from about 75 people — mostly car owners along with about a dozen homeowners and a half dozen business owners — whose windows had been shot out sometime between midnight and 6 a.m. Wednesday.
On Thursday, the damage continued with about 30 reports from residents in Rutland, Center Rutland and West Rutland whose vehicles were vandalized overnight and, in about eight instances, during the day.
"I went inside for about 10 minutes earlier today and when I came out my window was shot out," Scott LaFrancois said waving his hand around the empty space once occupied by the driver's side window of his Chevrolet Cavalier.
LaFrancois, whose car was parked in a lot on Meadow Street in the city when the vandalism occurred, didn't see the shooter but he suspected a dark sport utility vehicle containing a teenaged driver and passenger who laughed as they drove by the scene shortly after.
"They spotted me and I could see the 'Oh (expletive)' expressions on their faces," he said.
But Rutland City Police Sgt. John Sly said police had reason to believe a different vehicle was involved.
"We have some information from a very credible source so it's looking like the (dark colored SUV) might not be the vehicle we're looking for," Sly said.
The sergeant didn't say what vehicle police believe might have been involved because they are pursuing a lead in search of a specific suspect.
With a tally of vandalism reports within the last 36 hours exceeding 100 cases, Sly said the spree was the worst of its kind in a long time.
"It's the most expensive and the most widespread we've seen in awhile," he said. "It's impacted a significant amount of people and I'm not exaggerating when I say the damage is in the tens of thousands of dollars."
The spree has also been unusual for the acts of vandalism committed during the day when there are more potential witnesses, he said.
If police are able to make an arrest in the case, Sly predicted that dozens of felony charges of unlawful mischief could be forthcoming and he appealed to the public to help find those responsible.
"If a vehicle doesn't fit in the neighborhood or is passing slowly, please call us right away," he said. "If you can get a license number that's great but at a minimum a description of the vehicle and direction of travel phoned into us right away would be a great help."
Anyone with information about the vandalismsis asked to call Rutland Police at 773-1816.

TechCruncher sues former pad partner
The ongoing saga of the CrunchPad JooJoo couch-potato media pad took another sharp turn Thursday when TechCrunch blogmeister, beer-can recycler, and self-reported CrunchPad JooJoo papa Michael Arrington filed suit against his former partners at Fusion Garage. As a Friday blog post by Arrington makes clear, he remains as "ripshit …
Holy smokes
That's a helluva paper. It would appear that recent articles hailing the Joojoo are now additional evidence. Go, Mike, go.
Arrington's funny...
... but he did well to get the JooTechPad from vapourware to prototype.
Having said that: there's a reason that Jobs, Gates, Michael Dell et al. have been at the top of their tree for years: making good, popular stuff (and making it pay) is tricky. Even now when you outsource the hard-to-understand build process, the task of getting something to market isn't as easy as "Think of idea, schmooze VC dollars, speak to manufacturer, hype, watch cash roll in".
It's a good story though: New Media numpty, after looking at uninspiring tech for years, thinks "hey! how hard can it be?", knocks together some concepts, sells the thing to the sky and back and then gets shafted by the first OEM he hooks up with.
One thing though: a cynic might claim that Arrington saw the revised MRSP, and wondered if all the grief was going to be worth it. I'd wager he'll do better out of the buzz around the story of how he was robbed by them nasty foreigners than he would out of the pad itself.

Monday, February 27, 2012 - 00:59 by Chris Spencer, HNN Photographer
The East Carolina and Marshall game stayed close all afternoon with the score tied eight times and a lead change of eleven times. Marshall was leading 28-25 at the intermission.
Marshall could not put East Carolina away. East Carolina stayed within five points of the Herd most of the game and tied Marshall 54-54 with 1:05 left then took a 56-54 lead with 31 seconds left. Marshall's Lateidra Elliott tied the game 56-56 in the second intermission with a jumper to send the game into overtime.
Marshall had to fight back again being down 60-56 with 4:06 left in overtime to tie the game 60-60 with 43 seconds left . Marshall took a 62-60 lead from some free throw shooting with 14 seconds remaining.
East Carolina's Shala Hodges countered that with a three pointer that gave East Carolina the 63-62 overtime win. With 3.7 seconds left Marshall's Lateidra Elliott was rushed to try for a three point attempt that failed failed.
Marshall Coach Royce Chadwick remarked that if there was one more second on the clock that Elliott's shot would likely have gone in.
Marshall is 15-13 overall and 6-9 in Conference USA. East Carolina is 10-19 overall and 4-11 in Conference USA.
During the intermission children and young adults from the Challenger Program performed. The Challenger Program is for young adults and children with special needs to encourage healthy activity that will improve physical fitness and personal growth with fun and friendships.

Life of an entrepreneur in nascent but up-and-coming ecosystems is rough and tough – just ask these Burmese founders. Yes, Myanmar is indeed starting to embrace a level of openness which can only mean good things for businesses. But like in any other Asian country, taking note of nuances can help you prosper locally. For this reason, Harald Friedl, managing director of a local renewable energy company, has penned down a comprehensive 27-pages-long guide for first-timers who are thinking of starting up in Myanmar.

China, Myanmar agree on
BEIJING–China has signed agreements worth US$7.8 billion with neighboring Myanmar, state media reported Saturday, as Beijing continues to assert its growing economic clout in Southeast Asia. Deals overseen by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and Myanmar President Thein Sein on Friday included agreements to build power plants fuelled by natural gas, the state-run China Daily reported.
TEEMA to invest NT$14 billion in Myanmar
TAIPEI, Taiwan — To tap the business potential of Myanmar, the Taiwan Electrical and Electronic Manufacturers' Association (TEEMA) recently decided to invest NT$14 billion to develop an industrial park in southern Myanmar. The Economic Daily News earlier cited industry insiders to report that the park is in Myanmar's southern Irrawaddy Division. TEEMA (台灣區電機電子工業同業公會) said it wants to invest NT$14 billion to provide a base for possibly dozens of Taiwanese electrical-component makers. If it goes ahead the project would create hundreds of semi-skilled jobs.
Myanmar's first RPG isn't great, but it's a great start
A couple of weeks ago we reported that Myanmar's first RPG had been published. Well, that game, DarkEnd, has now been put through its paces at Games in Asia. Here's what we think. DarkEnd is marketed as an indie RPG, but in truth, it's actually an action RPG. It's centred around four individuals, who, although living cliches of fantasy game stereotypes, have been developed with great attention to detail.
Tips on how to build a startup in a frontier market (Yangon Meetup)
It's an exciting time for Myanmar right now, which is just only coming out from under a 40-year old dictatorship regime. Just last year, only 0.16 percent of Myanmar's population had access to the internet, and it is estimated that roughly 10 percent of their people own a mobile phone. The situation in Myanmar now is not too different from post-communist Vietnam, who only managed to pull away from the extreme poverty line in 2008. Since then, a combination of accelerators, events, and startups have sprouted in Vietnam in steadily growing numbers. The question is, can Myanmar pull it off as well?
Myanmar to build open source e-government platform
The first phase of the platform will be launched at the end of the year with functions allowing officials to manage citizen data and exchange information with other ministries and local governments, according to Vietnamese media reports. The platform will be upgraded in 2015 with cloud technology, and capabilities to handle more complex datasets and mobile users, it added.
Vietnam's Hanel DTT plans Myanmar e-gov't platform
The ceremony for the signing of the agreement was held at a Viet Nam-Myanmar business matching session in Yangon, Myanmar, on Wednesday. The two sides have agreed to share their resources to implement e-government projects in Southeast Asia, and work in government-to-government (G2G) systems on the projects. They will also exchange information, experience, technology and experts to build OEP communities in order to expand OEP functions and carry out projects of the two countries.
Myanmar tech sector sizzles amid Internet boom
YANGON, Sept 28 — From navigating gridlocked city roads to playing a favourite national sport, new homegrown apps are blossoming in Myanmar as cheap mobile technology ignites an Internet revolution in the once-isolated nation. Myanmar web surfers were once paradigms of patience and ingenuity as they dodged and weaved through the former military regime's communications blocks in decrepit backstreet Internet cafes.
Startup aims at Myanmar's youngest of early adopters with educational iPad app
Only about 10 percent of Myanmar's population have a mobile phone right now – and even fewer have a smartphone or tablet. While Myanmar is an exciting, new, and sizable market, it's still very early days. One startup based in Yangon is keen on gaining traction in this formative stage. A team of app developers recently released its first educational iPad app, called Phew (pictured above). It's designed to help kids learn how to write the mellifluously flowing characters of the Burmese language. The Brahmic script, like Thai or Tibetan, is quite hard to write.
High definition calls and high speed Internet now come to Myanmar
The Information Age will finally come to Myanmar as 68 of its cities and towns acquire access to high definition calls and high speed Internet access starting August 15. A press statement by Ooredo Myanmar quoted their mobile telecoms operator firm as saying that the launch of this service marks the very first time such services will be available to people in the country.
Wassup WhatsApp? Viber claims an early lead in Myanmar with 5 million registered users
Viber is claiming an early lead ahead of all its messaging app rivals in the newly opened up country of Myanmar. Viber said today that it now has five million registered users in Myanmar. "The growth rate is exceptional and we are thrilled that Myanmar mobile users have joined the Viber family," said Talmon Marco, Viber's CEO in an announcement. It comes a day after Marco appeared by video link (using Viber?) at a company event in Yangon, the former capital that remains Myanmar's cultural hub.
Myanmar's new mobile internet users embrace Android smartphones, pick Viber over Facebook
Half of Myanmar's mobile internet users came online during the past 12 months, according to a major survey in the newly emerging nation. 49 percent of all the country's web users only access the web on their phones. That means the people of Myanmar are skipping the era of PCs entirely. They're also sidestepping basic 'feature phones' and are instead leaping straight into Android smartphones. The survey from On Device Research, which questioned people and also monitored the device they're using, found that China's Huawei is the number one phone brand in Myanmar with 71 percent of respondents using an Android-powered Huawei smartphone.
Microsoft and Myanmar's company to provide IT training
The US-based Microsoft Corporation has agreed to work with Myanmar Computer Company to train some 100,000 young people for cloud computing and related information technologies. The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding becoming partners in the training programme. Microsoft Corporation will work together with a Myanmar local company to train at least 100,000 young people in Microsoft's cloud computing and other latest technologies in the country, according to sources.
What I learned setting up a startup incubator in Myanmar – and what you need to know about the country itself
My first encounter with Myanmar happened around a board table at Indosat HQ in Jakarta, Indonesia. If I am honest, I probably couldn't have told you where Myanmar was on a map when that meeting began. As I watched the briefing slides flip through, I wondered if it was possible to do what we were about to attempt. Fewer than one percent of the population on the internet; fewer than five percent with a mobile phone; a few computer associations – that was about it for the newly-opened country's tech scene.
Big opportunity for Southeast Asia IT industry
Despite its late start in the global economic race, Southeast Asia is now considered to have one of the world's fastest growth rates, with an average GDP of more than 6% over the past decade. The World Bank forecasts that after the economic recession, countries such as the Philippines, Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos will begin to recover their GDP momentum, and can expect growth rates of more than 7% in 2015.
Myanmar poised to have '60 million citizens come online almost overnight'
Rita Nguyen delivered an electrifying keynote speech on the opportunities awaiting technology companies that expand into Myanmar to close the conference session for Startup Asia Singapore Day 1. Her wide-ranging presentation delivered insights gleaned from her work as co-founder and CEO of Squar.Asia, a social media and gaming company making strong headway in Myanmar.
MAXpower Signs Landmark Agreement With Myanmar Electric Power Enterprise
(Thaketa) Co. Ltd ("MAXPOWER"), a Myanmar power generating subsidiary of the Navigat Group, today executed a Power Purchase Agreement ("PPA") in relation to the construction and operation of a fifty (50) MW gas-fired power plant located within the Thaketa district of Yangon, Myanmar's largest city. The plant will utilise the efficient and advanced technology of sixteen (16) GE's (General Electric) Jenbacher gas engines. MAXPOWER's has invested US$35MM in the plant which is now fully operational.
APR Energy Announces Landmark Power Contract Win in Myanmar
APR Energy, a global leader in fast-track power solutions, today announces the signing of a large-scale, turnkey power contract in Myanmar. The facility will provide the Myanmar Electric Power Enterprise (MEPE) with a guaranteed minimum of 82 megawatts (MW) of power generation, with plant capacity to deliver up to 100MW.

MIAMI (AP) - A former Secret Service agent for the U.S. has pleaded guilty in Miami to impersonating a federal law enforcement officer.
Federal prosecutors say Sandra Elder entered a guilty plea Friday to one count of impersonating a special agent of the U.S. Secret Service.
Sentencing is scheduled for Feb. 10 in West Palm Beach. She faces up to three years in prison. A message left with her attorney was not immediately returned.
Court documents show Elder has not been an agent since 2001.
Prosecutors say she told students and school officials at a Broward County university where she worked that she was still an agent and was close to retiring. Elder also submitted fraudulent paperwork to the school that said she was serving as a current supervisory agent.

Historical Traveler Reviews Vidella Hotel Blackpool
One to avoid
we stayed for four days, not once did we have a good night sleep, even after a few beers, although we had clean towels, that was as about as much cleaning the room got, not once were the bed covers changed. on the last night a sunday, people were down in the bar, locals i think, at around 1pm, and all you could hear was dance music, and shouting. by 6 oclock the next morning it was still going on, so we had had enough and left to get home and get some rest, for the money we payed to stay here, i think it was a complete rip off, one to avoid at all times.
Awful, atrocious... avoid
The brochure for the Vidella hotel has wonderful pictures giving a good impression, as does their web site. However, reality is very far removed from these images.
We stayed there over a weekend in May, and would definitely not return. Our room had not been cleaned properly, with a layer of dust over the television giving the impression that things had not been cleaned for some while. the carpet was also dirty.
The management were very helpful when we arrived, but from the Saturday onwards they seemed to go AWOL, and were never seen again for our stay. The rest of the staff had to muddle through and were great but obviously it is they that hold this hotel together and not the 2 owners.
The en-suite bathroom was very small but functional. We did have to leave toiletries outside the room however due to lack of space.
The room itself was decorated in an odd fashion. Obvioisly the owners have spent some money on the place. One room had wallpaper that was tasteful and modern. The rest of the walls had early 1970'e anaglypta which was peeling away from the walls in places. The furniture was also early 1970's.
The 2 owners seemed to be partying all weekend, as the noise from the lounge deprived us of sleep on 2 of our 3 nights. It appears that the Vidella hotel's entertainment springs into life in the small hours of the morning when other clubs close. The noise was deafening, and also included a loud dog barking at times.
One of the reasons we stayed at the Vidella was the service of having a bar meal in the evenings. On one night we were informed that this service was not available, and in fact had we been booked in for an evening meal this was going to be severely delayed due to lack of appropriate staff at the hotel.
We booked this hotel as we are a gay couple and thought we would support a hotel run by another gay couple. We will not make this mistake again, and will stay at another hotel if we return to Blackpool.
The worst hotel in the UK
Basil Fawlty, we have found a hotel that makes Fawlty Towers seem like a palace. I would definitely not recommend the Vidella Hotel to anyone.
We stayed a Friday, Saturday & Sunday night. On the Saturday after being out all day we returned to find that our room had not been made up. The excuse they gave was that they did not have a spare key for the cleaner! On the Sunday morning when I went to breakfast I was informed that the chef, who was one of the owners of the hotel, had not turned up for work and that the waitress was therefore cooking the breakfasts. She did an absolutely splendid job under the circumstances, and obviously had the patience of a saint. On the Sunday afternoon after returning from our day out, again we found that our room had not been serviced. This time neither of the owners was present to offer an explanation.
However, the major problem (as if the above was not bad enough) was that in the small hours of Sunday, 2am, the disco / karaoke started and lasted until 4am. The noise of this was interspersed by barking from the owners one year old great dane. Needless to say, no sleep was had that night. To compound matters, the same happened at 2am on the Monday morning, this time lasting until 5am. Both nights at full volume.
There are so many other hotels in Blackpool I would advise anyone to stay somewhere else...anywhere else!
Foru days before getting to the hotel, they phoned to cancel the booking
Just four days before starting our holidays, we had a phone call from Vidella Hotel to cancel our booking, due, according to them, to a double booking thay had made by mistake. We reserved our accomodation at the beginning of February and was confirmed by email and telephone the 19th of that month. Because of this and being Easter week we were left with nowhere to stay. Our flight from Spain had been already booked, so you can imagine the big problem. We would like to warn all its possible costumers to be careful about this unprofessional and shameful behaviour.
Loved it
We stayed at the vidella hotel 22-24th march 2006,
we had a great time, the rooms were nice and tidy, the bathrooms were a bit on the small side but certanley managable, the food was absolutley gorgeous the best weve had from blackpool and the eating area was also very nice,the staff were great, very friendly and nothing was too much trouble, anything you needed they took care of it straight away. the bar area was lovely very stylish, great seating, pool table etc.
will definatley be returning to this hotel again had an excellent time
Exelent hotel
We are a group of 12 well behaved girls that stayed at the vidella hotel & we all totally enjoyed our stay.The bedding was at a very high standard of quality & clenliness along with the towels.The rooms were cosy & clean & servised daily.The breakfast was cooked to everyones liking and nothing was to much trouble for the very friendly & helpfull staff & management.We would recomend this hotel to anyone thats looking for a great stay in blackpool & we would like to thank jhon & neil (THE OWNERS)for making our weekend in blackpool completley enjoyable.
New year 2005
Having had three hotels to choose from, we decided on this due to the modern bar!! The hotel and staff are superb, not sure about the previous remarks, but given that it was new year, we may have expected something similar due to the hotel being extremly busy. But no we thought it was great and really pleased that we chose it. The staff are friendly and helpful and try to make sure that you enjoy your stay. The bedrooms i didnt think were that bad, but i beleive they are still to be decorated. The entertainment was excellent and the quizzes were fun too. Overall a thoroughly enjoyed holiday, booking again for new year 2006.
You need to employ a cleaner - and fast !
I have stayed at worse Blackpool B&Bs, but nevertheless apart from the good location and the tidy EXTERIOR of the hotel, there is nothing to recommend the Vidella.
Upon arrival (four of us sharing two double rooms), check-in seemed to be either a hassle or confusion for the staff, as did the request that our bags be locked somewhere safe before the room became available later in the day.
The rooms were dirty. Nicely decorated, which made it seem even odder that the carpets should be so filthy and unhoovered. We hoped that after the first night this would be rectified (perhaps too busy on change-over day ?) but no, still remained filthy. Three of us found hairs (not our own) on the pillows/bed linen which led us to suspect that the sheets had not been changed from the previous guest, simply brushed down. Tiny pokey bathroom with remnants of previous guests stuck on the tiled walls, a very poor shower, with the most dirty bathmats seen in a long time. No towel rails for the (wafer thin) towels - we had to put them on hangers in the wardrobe to dry ! Oh, and the toilet cistern leaked every time you flushed...
Breakfast was very poor, low budget value-type food, greasy. Ate half on the first day and avoided it after that...
You may wonder why we stayed after arrival, and in hindsight so did we ! However, given that the location was exactly where we needed to be, plus having arrived by plane and not wanting the hassle of seeking an alternative elsewhere, we felt little option other than to stay for the two booked nights.
Very disappointed to have read the previous review, which I can only imagine is biased as it is NOT a true representation of the hotel.
Two stars awarded, as there is worse out there. But none of the four of us can recommend this hotel and we can only suggest they take a severe look at their cleaning policy...
We are quite happy for guests to check in at anytime of the day - early or late. Flights from London usually arrive around 9am. and this is something we are quite used to. We will always try to check you into a room which was unoccupied the previous night, however this is not always possible during busy periods. Luggage can be locked away, so that you can enjoy the whole day in Blackpool. Partly due to your comments this procedure has been reconfirmed to all staff.
We pride ourselves on our cleanliness, and even "on change-over day" we do not compromise our standards. However, we obviously did fall short during your stay. I am deeply concerned regarding the comments on your room and in particular on your bed linen. However, no comment was made to us at the time, as we would have rectified this immediately and checked by a member of management, or offered you an alternative room. All rooms should have towel rails and sound toilets and again these would have only taken minutes for us to rectify, if you had made them known to us. Since your visit we have had two comments about showers in two rooms and these and a third shower have been replaced. We have replaced our entire set of towels with fresh, white towels.
I am unable to understand your comments regarding our breakfasts. "Low budget value-type food" is a false economy, so we do not use it. The only fried items on our breakfast are fried eggs and fried bread, and the oil is changed daily. Everything else is grilled.
I have to disagree with your comments that the previous review was biased or untrue, as this is a true reflection of the vast majority of our guest feedback.
We value your comments, as they help us to eliminate any possibilities that our standards are not met. And we apologise that your stay was not as enjoyable as it should have been. However, we wish that you had made them known to us while you were here, so we could have offered you are regular standards.
Comfort Hotel
The Vidella Hotel is excellent for all kinds of people. It has excellent cuisine and the hotel bedrooms are really comfortable. The staff are friendly and nothing is too much trouble. You ask and your wish is their command!
It is close to all the amenities and is in an excellent location.
Having visited it this year I am looking forward to returning next year.

Nowhere Man
... family on Monday morning in the beautiful town of Sucre. They'll be providing me with a room, a bed, breakfast, lunch and most likely a shed-load of completely bamboozling, non-English conversation! The rest of the trip I'll keep secret for now... The backpack is packed and all that stands between me and beautiful South America is a MAMMOTH 36-hour journey. Which I'm sure is going to be just FAB! :-| Watch this ...
The Liverpool Story
Not sure what made me think of coming to Liverpool but it was well worth the visit, in fact, I could easily have stayed a couple more days and still not seen it all. My hotel was just across the road from the Albert Dock which is alive with museums, galleries, shops and eateries of all kinds. Just ...

Having a walk in LiverpoolOne looking for some food. Wandered to the nearby Mathew St where the infamous Cavern Club lies. It's still there and open and host to bands to this day (including Beatles cover bands). However the Cavern area, in and around the street, is full of tacky bars and clubs all trying to live off ...

... this cartoon rubbish would have John and George turning in their graves. Shameful. Now to the rest of Liverpool. Ummm....okay I haven't had a chance to see the rest of Liverpool. Wished I'd gone to the Museum, but have a 11am Train to Manchester and the Museum opens at 10am. I did wander the shops when looking for lunch. They copied the idea of Fed Square and called it LiverpoolOne. It's a different design, but ...

Smashing Color Workshops
A Smashing Color class gives you the chance to see, use, and understand color in a whole new way. After thirty years as an artist and teacher of color, my hands-on approach is more about guiding color explorations than teaching color theory. I enjoy the challenge of distilling the complexity of color into "useful bits of information" for artists working in all media.
Half Day Intro Classes offered at VIA Artistica Teaching Studio in Portland, Oregon.
See the VIA Artistica Calendar for details.
Level One – Building a Strong Foundation
Level Two – Color and Contrast
Level Three – Learning from Nature
Polymer Workshops
Maggie discovered her signature ColorWash technique (aka the Watercolor technique) over twenty years ago while playing with applique beads. All ColorWash workshops include Smashing Color principles as part of the class.
Flip Pendants: Exploring the ColorWash Technique
The ColorWash technique brings out the richness of color in polymer by washing thin sheets over a white base. Explore the beauty of color washing by making Stone Beads and a Fishtail Pendant using a simple variation of the technique inspired by torn paper collage.
Note: This two-day workshop is appropriate for all levels of polymer artists including beginners.
More Info
The Nature of Mark Making: Instinctive Doodling on Polymer Clay
This two-day workshop combines the basics of the ColorWash technique with an exploration of the nature of mark making.
Note: Basic polymer experience required.

Millefiore Magic: Exploring Color Choices
Choosing the right colors for your canes is critical since their relationship changes as the cane is reduced. Can you predict how your colors will shift?
Learn how to see color in a whole new light as you focus on value contrast – the magic key to making your designs work at a small scale.
Outside the Portland area: Contact me if you are interested in hosting a class for your guild or artist group.
Students: Please let me know ahead of time if you have any health issues – for example, hearing/sight impairments or a physical disability that requires the use of a motorized pasta machine – so that arrangements can be made to best accommodate your needs during the workshop.

Carroll DFA'd to clear room for Ankiel
Apr 14, 2012, 4:04 AM EST
Needing to clear a roster spot for Rick Ankiel before he returns from the 15-day disabled list, the Nationals designated outfielder Brett Carroll for assignment following tonight's 13-inning victory over the Reds.
Carroll, 29, performed well in spring training and was frequently mentioned by manager Davey Johnson as a player who figured to significantly contribute off the bench. But the late signing and emergence of veteran Xavier Nady left Carroll scrambling to receive playing time.
Carroll wound up appearing in five of the season's first eight games but got only two at-bats. He did score two runs, including the game-winner on Opening Day in Chicago.
Out of options, Carroll must now clear waivers before he can beRead more »

They are building a pretty good stable down in Syracuse with Michaels, Brown, Harper, Moore, etc…. Plus Marerro will be back before the all star break. Carroll would be a nice addition to that depth as well.
- MicheleS - Apr 14, 2012 at 11:16 AM
I hope he does stick around, I liked what we got to see in spring traiing. He didn't get too many chances during the season.

Cab driver pulls gun to stop unruly passenger
Brian Paradise, 48, of Nashua, was taking a passenger from Nashua to Amherst when he was assaulted while the passenger apparently attempted to avoid paying the cab tab, police said.
Paradise displayed a handgun, for which he is licensed to conceal, just before 1 a.m. on Route 101A near Northern Boulevard.
Police arrested Jarrod Brouillette, 25, of Amherst, and charged him with simple assault, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. He was later released on $3,000 personal recognizance bail pending arraignment in Milford on Jan. 9.

David Kong to Lead Best Western Through 2018

PHOENIX—Best Western International has announced that David Kong will continue to lead the brand as president and CEO through 2018.
Kong was named president and CEO in 2004, and his new contract, which was unanimously support by the Best Western Board of Directors. Under Kong's leadership, Best Western has launched a number of initiatives, which have resonated with travelers and re-energized the brand. The brand's descriptors include Best Western, Best Western Plus and Best Western Premier.
The announcement comes on the heels of Kong receiving a prestigious industry award. Earlier this month at the NYU International Hospitality Industry Investment Conference, Kong received the Stephen W. Brener Lodging Hospitality Silver Plate Award. Kong was recognized for his contributions to the resurgence of the Best Western brand and to the hospitality industry.
The Stephen W. Brener award has been given annually for more than 50 years to the most influential personalities, companies and organizations in the travel industry. Previous recipients include Hilton Worldwide President and CEO Christopher Nassetta and Randy Smith, chairman and co-founder of Smith Travel Research.
Tags: • Hospitality • Brands • Brands •
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." With the word cautious no longer necessary, the economic outlook took a backseat this year to the seemingly unending parade of new lifestyle brands.

Family plans lawsuit in murder at Oak Park nursing home
80-year-old resident died of head injury. Fellow resident implicated
|Share on Facebook
|Share on Twitter
By Devin Rose
The family of an 80-year-old man who died of a head injury in what is being called a murder last week at an Oak Park nursing home plans to file a lawsuit against the facility in the next couple of weeks, according to an attorney representing them. The law firm has handled several other legal claims against the nursing home's owners, another attorney with the firm said.
Mike Bonamarte, of the Chicago firm Levin & Perconti, confirmed Tuesday that the family of Anibal Calderon will file suit against Oak Park Healthcare, 625 N. Harlem Ave. Calderon died Feb. 14 of cerebral cranial hemorrhaging due to blunt force trauma, according to Oak Park police. He was a patient in the facility's Alzheimer/dementia ward. A 66-year-old patient in the same ward is believed to be involved in his death, which was ruled a homicide by the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office.
According to his family, Calderon "had some prior verbal altercations" with another resident, Bonamarte said. He couldn't confirm the 66-year-old man was the same one, but "we have reason to believe it may have been." Bonamarte said the other resident struck Calderon, and trauma from either the blow or the fall caused the brain injury.
Oak Park Police Commander LaDon Reynolds said the 66-year-old has a criminal history, but could not give details because of the ongoing investigation.
Attorney John Perconti said his firm has handled several other cases against Oak Park Healthcare, as well as claims against its owners, Sherwin Ray and Jakob Bakst. Ray and Bakst also reportedly own other nursing facilities. Perconti could not recall specifics, but estimated there were two pending cases from 2008 to 2009, possibly involving a facility in East Peoria.
According to the Illinois Department of Public Health's website, both men are part owners of Prairie Village Healthcare Center in Jacksonville. In 2010, the local newspaper there reported they were named in a lawsuit that accused 21 people of contributing to the 2007 death of a 66-year-old woman who died after a fall.
A message for Bakst last week was not returned, and an attempt to reach him Monday was unsuccessful. Ray could not be reached for comment. Several attempts to reach the facility's administrator, Helen Lacek, were unsuccessful.
When reached by phone last week, Calderon's son, Robert, referred questions to Levin & Perconti. He was unavailable Tuesday morning.
Complaints about Oak Park Healthcare to the Illinois Department of Public Health have been consistent since 2001, according to the department's website. Department records show the last complaint investigation survey—which is sparked by a citizen complaint and results in a facility inspection—was completed Nov. 29.
Before Calderon's death, IDPH spokesperson Melaney Arnold said the facility corrected all deficiencies listed in previous complaint investigation surveys. Previous complaints included verbal mistreatment of a patient by an employee, unclean conditions at the facility, failure to follow infection control procedures, and inadequate supervision of patients, among others.
The facility has consistently received one-star ratings on a five-point scale from a federal agency which rates nursing facilities.
However, Meyer Magence, who is listed as the agent of Oak Park Healthcare Center, LLC, called incidents from the early 2000s "ancient history."
"Anything can happen at any time," he said. "No nursing home has 1-to-1 care."
IDPH records from 2010 show the facility has 204 beds and 157 residents. The facility has been fined thousands of dollars at least a handful of times since 2001. In one incident, it took 75 minutes for a resident's seizures to be controlled by paramedics. In another, a drunk resident allegedly sexually assaulted another resident.
Separate investigations by Oak Park police, IDPH and Levin & Perconti are continuing.

First, my condolences to the family. How sad that we have lost our way - that our elders are subjected to such negligent care. Shining the legal light on this facility will bring attention, but, how many more are there out there that we don't know about -- we as caregivers, parents, children, husbands, wives, etc. need to start to demand better and address the issues in every way we can - using the media, the internet, agencies, the medical community, etc. to bring much needed change.

I hope the law firm bought an ad in the paper for all of the back-patting they received. The family will want money, so let's do what the lawyers will do: put a value on the life of an 80 year old Alzheimer's patient. Sorry, but it wont be all that much without punitive damages (tough to prove). $100K, perhaps?
Posted: February 21st, 2012 7:38 PM
Don't families do a background check on facilities BEFORE placing a loved one inside? For heaven's sake this place has had complaints up the wazoo for YEARS! And the attitude of the agent of the facility called the incidents "ancient history?" Better check to see if this guy isn't related to the owners of a Funeral Home in Chgo. that had no elect. and were storing bodies in the garage. The family should sue. This facility & owners were negligent and they need to be held responsible!

How unfair it is to put people with criminal backgrounds in with unsuspecting people who are not criminals. How unfair to families thinking that their loved ones are safe and cared for. We hear of these things happening in the name of equal rights...rights of perps are protected, but who will protect the innocent who often end up being their victims? This has to change.

Of course, the suit follows. I expected it. The poor family won't be poor anymore.

I hope they sue them out of business. That land would be perfect for the NEW oak Park hotel.

Updated March 29, 2:29 p.m.
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment sent a news release Friday to address concerns about the substitute in House bill 2183 regarding infectious and contagious diseases.
In the release, Kansas state epidemiologist Charles Hunt says recent media coverage has been based on a false premise and that "it is not and never was the state's intent to seek the authority for isolation or quarantine of persons related to HIV."
Supporters of expanding Medicaid delivered nearly 3,000 signatures to Gov. Sam Brownback's office Wednesday, asking him to support an expansion of the state's Medicaid program.
Anna Lambertson is with a coalition of organizations pushing for Medicaid expansion. She spoke during a rally at the Statehouse.
"We could bring more health care related jobs to Kansas, and improve the health of our workforce," she said. "Healthy workers, as I'm sure you know already, mean a productive workforce. That's good for our employers and for our state."
A Water Usage and Conservation meeting was held Tuesday at Wichita's Central Library, organized by the League of Women Voters. A three-member panel addressed questions about the future of Wichita's water supply including concerns about Cheney Reservoir.
Cheney provides 60 percent of the city's water supply and if the drought continues is projected to run dry by August 2015.
"We are going into a three year drought," says Ben Nelson, Strategic Services Manager for Wichita's Public Works & Utilities Department.
Signatures delivered to Brownback in support of Medicaid expansion; Wichita Senator says we must keep the sales tax rate as is; Study says medical costs could increase after overhaul.
Group Delivers 2,700 Signatures Asking Brownback To Expand Medicaid
Spring Breakers will owe its box office success to its continual shots of bosoms and bottoms, not always covered by bikinis.
Kansas senators have approved a heavily amended version of Gov. Sam Brownback's reading initiative, putting the focus on first-graders.
Governor Sam Brownback Wednesday signed a bill that changes the way some judges in Kansas are selected.
A select group of lawmakers from the Kansas House and Senate started negotiations on tax legislation Wednesday.
Wichita officials ushered four new transit buses into service Wednesday.
Mayor Carl Brewer and Wichita Transit Director Steve Spade joined city council members and others for the "inaugural ride."
City council members approved a plan Tuesday to purchase as many as 20 buses in the next two years to upgrade the aging fleet of 56 buses. The transit center's fleet travels nearly 2 million miles annually, and it's one of the oldest in the region.
Hospitals in Kansas could lose some federal money if the state doesn't expand Medicaid services under the federal health care law. A lawmaker helping to draft the budget says the state needs to consider assisting those hospitals.
Many hospitals receive payments to help them cover the cost of medical care for the uninsured; they are known as disproportionate shared hospital payments. As the federal health care law continues, the focus will move to funding more Medicaid services, meaning the current disproportionate share funds could be reduced or completely eliminated.

This recipe is from Cat Cora's cookbook, "Cooking from the Hip". Chef Cora says, "Budino in Italian means pudding, but this is more like a molten cake, moist and almost gooey in the middle when served warm from the oven. I like to serve the budino with a scoop of homemade Banana Chocolate-Chunk Ice Cream, but it's also great with creme anglaise and fresh raspberries or strawberries. I use Callebaut or El Rey chocolate for this dessert, but any premium chocolate will work."
