Sunshine complaint filed against city's State Street decision
Date: March 12, 2013
by: Roger Drouin | City Editor
Citizens for Sunshine filed a complaint Monday alleging a violation of the Sunshine Law in the city's selection of a construction and design firm slated to build a new public parking garage on State Street.
The legal action alleges that the scoring and ranking of bidders on the proposed construction of the $7.3 million State Street Parking Garage was changed and occurred out of the Sunshine and without notice to the public, according to a press release sent by Citizens for Sunshine March 12. Using the Public Records Act, Citizens for Sunshine obtained scoresheets ranking the bidders that indicated bid scores were crossed out and altered.
In January, the City's Evaluation Committee eventually recommended that the contract be awarded to A.D. Morgan, a Tampa-based construction firm.
Several downtown advocates protested the selection of A.D. Morgan, saying the process was flawed and that the city ended up selecting a firm that employs only one Sarasota resident.
Citizens for Sunshine contends that the Tampa- based construction firm initially scored fifth-place out of eight bidders vying for the project. A.D. Morgan failed to make the initial short list of candidates announced at a November public meeting, according to Citizens for Sunshine's complaint.
According to the complaint, "after the proposed bids were scored and ranked in the public meeting, a city staff member changed the scoring and awarded additional points to A.D. Morgan, who then climbed into first-place. The city staffer claims the points should have been awarded during the committee meeting, but it was inadvertently overlooked."
"This week should be a celebration of the annual Sunshine Law Week. Instead, we are required to go to court to ensure that public business is transacted in the open and not behind closed doors," said Andrea Mogensen, attorney for Citizens for Sunshine.
City planning staff said the State Street garage project would move forward at this time unless the project is halted by a judge.
City Attorney Robert Fournier said he will update City Commissioners at Monday's meeting on the legal complaint.
Fournier said the scoresheet for A.D. Morgan was changed due to a city-staff error when awarded points were not added during the previous meeting for A.D. Morgan being a minority business enterprise (MBE).
City staff then added in the missing points, a change that moved up A.D. Morgan's ranking in the selection process. "The selection committee should have reconvened in the sunshine," Fournier said.

Why Recent College Grads Should Consider a Career in PPC

Beneficial Bank donates $10,000 in tennis gear to children
Send this to a friend
- Lauren Hertzler, Special to the Business Journal
The Beneficial Charitable Foundation has recently donated about $10,000 in tennis equipment to hundreds of local children.
The Beneficial Foundation, established in 2007 by Beneficial Bank to fund support programs for children and families in crisis, distributed about 100 new junior tennis racquets to children from Camden's Holy Name summer camp and Roxborough's Northern Children's Services' summer camp. Campers from the summer programs ventured to The Pavilion at Villanova University for Philadelphia Freedoms' professional tennis clinics on July 10 and July 25.
"It was a great experience for the kids," said Robert Juliano, vice president of community development for Philadelphia-based Beneficial. "They were just so excited."
During the tennis clinics, campers between the ages of eight and 12 got game advice from the Philadelphia Freedoms, Philadelphia's co-ed tennis team. Luka Gregorc from Slovenia, a tennis pro, taught the fundamentals of the sport on USTA Quick Start courts.
"They were so enthusiastic to learn a sport and it was really a great moment for them," Juliano said.
After a dinner at The Pavilion, campers were able to watch a Freedoms tennis match, July 25 being the last home game of the season. At both clinics, two campers were given the opportunity to have the first serve in the professional tennis match.
"It was a pretty special experience for a youngster, being out there with the pros and under the lights," Barbara Perry, senior vice president and general manager of the Freedoms, said.
Campers were able to take their own racquet and Beneficial-branded T-shirt, tennis ball and carrying bags home. The tennis clinics are in their second year, but this is the first time equipment has been distributed.

vietnamese coffee
- alkapal Jun 4, 2009 02:23 AM
i love vietnamese coffee when i go to a restaurant, and want to replicate that drink at home. can you help me?
what brand coffee do you use? do you grind it yourself, and if so, how fine? do you have a special brewing technique? is one technique superior to another?
what is the right ratio of sweetened condensed milk to coffee? do you find differences in the quality of various brands of sweetened condensed milk? do you have a favorite?
have you ever made this into an ice cream or a custard, like a flan?
and....look at this recipe i found for a vietnamese coffee cupcake! (from the best cupcake blog) http://chockylit.blogspot.com/2006/05...
finally, is there an etiquette for serving and drinking this coffee? is it served only after meals? is it served as a breakfast beverage?
A common coffee used for Vietnamese coffee is Cafe du Monde (it has, I think, a bit of chickory in it). In Chinatown (NYC) the individual coffee makers that sit on top of a cup are readily available. Center screw is gradually adjusted until coffee has dripped into cup. Coffee drains into cup laced with sweetened condensed milk and then the contents (coffee and milk) are poured over ice.
re: Fram143
my mother's was similar--I haven't been able to pull her away from Cafe du Monde (she rejected Porto Rico's New Orleans Blend)--with the exception that ice was in the tumbler/highball, with a healthy dose of sweetened condensed milk (2-3"; the condensed milk can was a brand from the Asian markets--Borden's & Eagle don't work); the individual coffee maker remained on top of the highball. Once the coffee was finished dripping (it seemed as though it took at least 10 minutes), a sundae spoon was used to stir it up. One certainly learns patience this way, without having to burn the fingers from the glass tumbler during the pouring time.
From what I've grown up with, it's drunk throughout the day. Then again, pho was served at midnight when my mother was growing up, so one may want to adjust when the caffein is consumed.
oh yes, use it in a flan would be yummy. i like Trung Nguyen brand. if you don't have a dripper then a percolator on the cooker also works. the Viet enjoy their coffee throughout the day and they really really take the time to contemplate the universe while drinking. however i'm not sure how their coffee culture works outside Vietnam. [me i can take 2 hours drinking 3 triple espresso no problem :P ]
Standard coffee used in the US is Cafe du Monde with chicory (the yellow can). It should come pre-ground, but if not, it's an espresso ground, if I remember correctly. There is no special brewing technique, no more than the French press requires a special brewing technique.
Use the little coffee makers sold in the stores. Place it over a cup with sweetened condensed milk (just 1 or 2 cm will do). Add a tablespoon or two of cofee. Add hot water. Put lid on. Wait. Add ice afterward if you're after iced coffee.
Re brands. I like using the Ong Tho brand (the one with the jolly old dude holding a cane) when I can because that's what I grew up on, but I haven't noticed a huge difference between it or, say, Carnation.
I have never made a ice cream or flan of it, but I have poured the coffee over good vanilla ice cream (a la affogato di gelato) for a reasonable facsimile and delicious dessert.
As for etiquette, there is none. This is served after a meal, with a meal, before a meal, or for breakfast. Whatever you desire; no one will look at you oddly. Normally, it's a breakfast accompaniment, and a very standard one. There is an often refered to image of old men, sitting in a little coffee shop, whittling away the hours from morning 'til afternoon.
re: Ali
Cafe du Monde is more of a perc grind, not the fine espresso. As far as I know the Vietnamese brands of coffee do not include chickory, so I suspect it is the grind that makes Cafe du Monde the non-import choice. If the grind is too fine, grains either pass through the holes in the filter, or clog them.
Brands like Trung Nguyen are listed as being a mix of arabica and robusta. Robusta is usually regarded as being inferior, how I think it works in the Vietnamese style. It gives the coffee enough assertiveness to shine through the dampening effect of the sweetened condensed milk. The chickory in Cafe du Monde may also play this role.
re: paulj
Always asking a Vietnamese friend about the cafe su da at Bahn Mi Che Cali a chain of restaurants in Southern California. Her sister works there and when I ask she brings me a can of Cafe du Monde. She claims that's what they use there. I suspect the chain places make the coffee in large batches and not by the individual method people use at home. Some of the Vietnamese grocery stores here carry a one pound unlabeled brown paper bag of coffee which is French roast, I don't think there's chickory in it.
re: monku
If it's take out only, it's probably a large batch method, but I wouldn't bet on it. If it's a sit-down place, it's the individual method. Every single Vietnamese restaurant I've ever been to will bring you the filter sitting atop a glass of sweetened condensed milk. It's just how it's served, and it's a simple enough import from Vietnam that people are unwilling to change.
As for the kinds of coffee most Vietnamese people drink when they're not doing the Cafe du Monde drip filter thing, you'd be surprised at the amount of people using the instant type - not all but a surprising amount for a group of people who have come to be known for this particularly drink. It's probably due to the fact that it's still a tea culture, and coffee is pretty much a leftover from the French (speaking of which, cafe au lait with sweetend condensed milk is the best). (But then, once could argue tea and the China influence, but I won't go there.)
re: Sam Fujisaka
The first V filter that I got came free with a package of V. coffee. Later I bought a nicer stainless steel filter for about $4 from a large Asian grocery.
re: paulj
Funny, I got a big batch of them in two sizes for free at a little place in Saigon about 25 years ago, before Vietnam opened up again. They were so cheap (and cheaply made). A couple of years ago I found your stainless steel one in an Asian store in DC. Unfortunately my next stop was some work with Green Mountain Coffee Roasters; and I gave the thing to one of the peope I worked with there.
As everyone's said, Cafe Du Monde is the go-to for Vietnamese coffee in the States. I've also seen French Market, Cafe Orleans and Cafe Bustelo used as a backup brand. Here's a tutorial on using a Vietnamese drip coffee maker:
Hey, sista!
What I wonder is HOW did Cafe du Monde become the go-to coffee of Vietnamese restaurants across the US? It is here in CT, too, and I have some in the cupboard along with the stainless steel contraptions. I bought mine years ago in a local Asian market (A Dong--don't laugh, I promise you that's the name of the market!). ;)
HillJ knows I'm a sweetened condensed milk freak and posted a recipe for me for Vietnamese coffee popsicles. Here 'tis:
re: kattyeyes
Probably Vietnamese settling in Louisiana.
re: trentyzan
oooh, you just gave me an idea for finding reasonably priced zatarain's creole mustard! thanks!
re: trentyzan
sista kattyeyes! i have some popsicle molds that i bought at cvs last summer with the intent to use them soon. but, hillj's vietnamese coffee popsicles will be their inauguration, though!
re: alkapal
Perfect--I knew you would love this idea. And I hope you find your special creole mustard, too! :)
re: Zeldog
I would say...chicory doesn't exist in VN. At least, I don't think I've ever seen it.
re: jaykayen
indian restaurants use coffee with chicory, too.
re: alkapal
I was unaware that any Indian restaurants served coffee.
Be careful: there are (or at least used to be) two versions of Cafe du Monde coffee, on with and one without chicory, so if it doesn't say "Coffee and Chicory" on the label, it's just coffee. I grew up drinking the stuff, both at home and at the cafe, and noticed the chicory taste first time I had some in a Vietnamese place.
Frankly, Cafe du Monde is not very good coffee. You can use it to replicate what they serve in restaurants or you can make something better by adding chicory to any decent arabica coffee. You can buy chicory online and at some health food or specialty stores. I use about 25% chicory. As someone else noted, use a medium grind with those metal drip gadgets you put on top of the cup. However, my preference is to grind fine and use a stove top espresso maker.
re: jaykayen
Beware that some brands of condensed milk are 'filled' - skim milk with vegetable fats. I always double check the ingredients list, preferring ones that list only milk and sugar.
re: jaykayen
I looked at the ingredients of various brands of condensed milk at a large Asian grocery (99Ranch). Nearly all had the same calories (130) and total fat (3g) per serving. This included both ones that listed just 'milk and sugar' (Carnation, Nestle etc) and the 'filled' ones (skim milk, sugar, hydrogenated fat).
The one exception was Longevity Gold, which was on sale (so I bought 2). That has 132 calories, 3.5g. The 'gold' can is a product of Holland. Ingredients are 'concentrated whole milk and sugar'.
re: alkapal
The gold was on sale for $2. I don't recall what non-sale was, closer to $3 I think. $2.50 seems typical for most brands.
Cafe du Monde became a coffee of choice due to the embargo against Vietnam after the war. Since true Vietnamese coffee was not available here, the Vietnamese population of Louisiana adopted Cafe du Monde. But it has chicory in it, which is never used in Vietnam.
Trung Nguyen is by far the leading brand in Vietnam, with the most coffee shops, around 800. Highlands Coffee is challenging them with well-placed cafes. Vietnamese coffees are traditionally multi-species (Arabica, Robusta, Excelsa) and are roasted slowly so that the sugars and oils do not burn, resulting in a deep flavor but not burnt taste. There are so many local brands and roasters that when you are in Vietnam you can find great coffee in everywhere, like oranges in Indian River Valley.
The most popular brands for the milk are Vinamilk (no longer exported to the USA due to excessive regulation by the FDA) and Longevity. These brands are used because they impart more creaming for the sweetness (they are whole milk). USA brands are too sweet and thin, typically. A good source for multiple brands of imported Vietnamese coffee is www.vietnamese-coffee.com.
re: mr.bean
I wonder about that 'whole milk' business. US Carnation sweetened condensed milk is just milk and sugar. Some of the Asian brands are 'filled sweetened condensed', with ingredients like skim milk, milk powder, sugar, vegetable fats and creamers. I think I've seen Longevity in both versions.
re: mr.bean
like oranges in indian river "valley"? are you talking about indian river, florida? it's not a "valley."
re: mr.bean
is the only online source worth the time & money for Vietnamese coffee.
ditto, Mr. Bean!
re: alkapal
alkapal, I always buy the sampler box because I enjoy ALL of their offerings. The company always sends free samples with every order too. For a few dollars you can give their line up a try.
re: paulj
i think i had some of that in a viet place in cape coral florida, except it had a plastic cover on it. i wondered how they "did it." nope, after looking at the vinacafe pics on google images, that was not it. mine was in a clear plastic cup, without any logo.
it was viet coffee and condensed milk with ice and a plastic cover *sealing* it. the cover was what puzzled me.

If the Yankees had any interest in Jimmy Rollins, it's gone. According to Jayson Stark of ESPN, the Yankees called Ruben Amaro and the Philadelphia Phillies inquiring about the asking price for Rollins. Unfortunately, the Phillies wanted a little too much for Rollins and the Yankees decided to move on. More from Stark: More on Rollins: Ruben Amaro ...

Chris Capuano ended the season with the New York Yankees, then donned a Yankees uniform when he went to play in Japan during the Japanese All-Star Series. However, his next move could potentially mean Capuano staying in Japan to continue his baseball career. "There's a lot of truth to it." Capuano told MLB Network Radio about ...

What contract would you give Chase Headley?
I did this post a few weeks ago with David Robertson where I asked Yankees fans on Twitter what contract offer they would make to him. Since it was quite popular, I decided to do it again, this time with free agent third basemen Chase Headley. It's no secret Headley was an immediate fan favorite when ...

Hot Stove: A big Chase Headley deal is 'risky business'
With Pablo Sandoval off the board, the Yankees can now pursue Chase Headley, who is ready to list his asking price. The problem is there's a chance Headley can list a big asking price, and it could be the thing to deter the Yankees from doing business with him. An American League scout told ESPN New ...

Hot Stove: 'Strong indications' Tulowitzki to Yankees isn't happening
You've heard the name Troy Tulowitzki thrown in trade rumors this offseason and for some of the trade rumors, you may have heard his name linked to the Yankees.

Speeding!!! ► Open838-844 N Franklin St Pottstown, PA 19464, USA
25mph zone on N.Franklin St. and everyone seems to drive well over 50mph at times, and honk at you when you tell them to slow down. This is a safety issue, especially since there are several children that live in this area.
pottstown_proud (Guest)
I have lived on north Franklin for2 years and speeding on this section of road has always been an issue. We even get ppl driving the wrong way on the one way section all the time. No one cares that there are kids living here. Heaven forbid you drive more than 20 mph on south Franklin st before a thug comes out and yells at you BC their kids are playing football in the street. Ppl just have to learn to do the limit at 25 mph on these streets and in these neighborhoods. I nearly got hit getting out of my car last week BC someone in an escalde went flying down the street when school let out. Seriously, speeding is still an issue up here. Slow it down!
Dog Clean Up ► OpenMaple Street Pottstown, PA
Dog owners are not cleaning up after their pets. They are using lawns and sidewalks as their personal bathrooms and leaving it for the home owners to either step in or clean up themselves. This is a very inconsiderate practice. Please train your pets to go at home or at least have the courtesy to pick up after them.· Reported by Barking Mad (Guest) · Share · Flag Flagged

Still Barking Mad (Guest)
almost a year later and it's still an issue. someone let their dog use our sidewalk as its bathroom and left it there for everyone to see or walk in. I'm really surprised at how people have so little respect for others.
Guest (Guest)
Bonnie, If you really want to cut back on this problem AND raise revenue at the same time, why don't you have the police check for the required dog license and cite those not in compliance?
Mayor Heath (Registered User)
We are not permitted to use fines to raise revenue, but I will look into what enforcement options we have.
Guest (Guest)
If you tackle the quality of life issues in Pottstown i.e. cleaning up after your dog, littering, walking down the middle of the street instead of on the sidewalk when cars are coming, the offenders will get tired of being cited and either comply or move, a win win for Pottstown's taxpaying residents. By the way.. where does money from fines go anyway?

I hope and pray nobody deals with this man. He's as disgusting as they get. I've known him for years and while he stays at home selling and getting high all day, his girlfriend works. It's because of people like this man why people who get disability checks should be investigated. I know quite a few people that had heart surgery that went back to work after a few weeks and do not sell there meds to make a few dollars. Hey P.B. stop being a crook, liar, thief!!! And stop milking a surgery that you had almost a decade ago to not work. And most of all, stop bullying people just because they know who you really are. Your day will come.

Chris Brown has left the rehab facility he entered last month after his assault arrest but is still receiving treatment, his rep tells PEOPLE.
"Chris is continuing his rehab program as an outpatient and is also completing his community service in the Los Angeles area. He appreciates all of your encouragement and support," the rep says.
The Grammy-winning R&B singer, 24, entered the unidentified rehab facility shortly after he and his bodyguard Christopher Hollosy were released Oct. 28 without bail from a Washington D.C. jail after a felony assault charge was reduced to a misdemeanor.

Chris Brown is headed to rehab following his weekend scuffle and arrest while still on probation for beating up Rihanna in 2009.
"Chris Brown has elected to enter a rehab facility," his rep says in a statement. "His goal is to gain focus and insight into his past and recent behavior, enabling him to continue the pursuit of his life and his career from a healthier vantage point."
The Grammy-winning R&B singer, 24, and his bodyguard Christopher Hollosy were released without bail from a Washington, D.C., jail Monday after a felony assault charge was reduced to a misdemeanor.

A charge against Grammy Award-winning R&B singer Chris Brown has been reduced to a misdemeanor and he has been ordered released.
Brown made his first appearance in a Washington DC courtroom Monday afternoon. He and his bodyguard had been charged with felony assault after their arrest Sunday following an altercation outside a Washington hotel.
The charges were reduced Monday afternoon to simple assault. Brown, 24, and Christopher Hollosy, who had spent the previous 36 hours in jail, were freed without bail.
"Christopher Brown committed no crime," his attorney Danny Onorato told reporters after the hearing, according to CNN. "We understand that his security acted to protect Mr. Brown and his property, as he is authorized to do under D.C. law. We are confident that Mr. Brown will be exonerated of any wrongdoing."

When Chris Brown was growing up in Tappahannock, Va., he had one pair of sneakers that he could wear to school, and that was it until the next year.
Now, the singer, 24, is helping put shoes on the feet of the kids who need it most.
"I used to have to borrow my cousin's clothes," he told PEOPLE on Saturday at a Los Angeles event for his Unity Campaign, sponsored by Reebok.
"So being able to come from that poverty-stricken environment and then being able to get out of it is what I tried to [do]. ... I just want to show the kids and have them have a better light of opportunities for them to do what they need to do."

What heartache?
Days after delivering a seemingly tortured onstage monologue about the pitfalls of love – which some took as a sign of trouble with Chris Brown – Rihanna posted a photo of herself cuddled up next to him Wednesday on Instagram.
In it, it looks like the on-again boyfriend is very much still on, as the couple snuggled together while driving in the Los Angeles sun.

Is Rihanna once again dealing with a broken heart?
The subject certainly seemed to be on her mind Monday at a Staples Center concert in Los Angeles, as rumors of trouble with boyfriend Chris Brown have begun to circulate.
"How many of you are in love? How many of you hate love? How many of you don't f––ing understand it? I'm in that group," Rihanna said on stage, before singing "What Now," from her most recent album.

Rihanna calls her relationship with Chris Brown more grown up and a "fresh start" after their rockier early years together – which ended in her now infamous 2009 beating that sent Brown to jail.
Acknowledging their relationship in an interview for April's Elle U.K. (on newsstands March 6), the Barbados-born music and style icon, says that in five years she hopes to have a baby and to be healthy and happy.
And, yes, that vision of her future seems to include Brown by her side.

It was four years ago that Rihanna and Chris Brown failed to show up at the 2009 Grammy Awards after a notorious battery incident that earned Brown a conviction for felony assault.
The couple's relationship came full circle, in a way, on Sunday night: Despite arriving separately, the newly reconciled pair sat together to enjoy the 2013 Grammys.
Rihanna, 24, in a red Alia gown, and Brown, 23, in all-white suit, were spotted looking cozy in the audience. TV cameras spotted Brown's arm around Rihanna, and he was holding her hand.

Data Quality: The Secret Assassin of CRM?
There's a silent virus lurking in many CRMs. It's a virus that slowly gets a foothold in the system, then slowly starts to deprive it of oxygen, choking it until it can no longer breathe. As the CRM starts to suffer, the business starts to falter. So what is the virus? The secret assassin of the CRM? It's poor quality data.[read more]

Data Quality: Cash Drain or Cash Gain?
According to a 2009 Gartner study, businesses estimated that they are losing an average of $8.2 million per year because of poor data quality.

It's more important than ever to mitigate the risk of poor data quality by investing in solutions that work.[read more]

Supply Chain Business Intelligence Is More Than Just Technology
Interestingly the technology implementation requires the most hard dollar costs, and returns the least in terms of ROI.

We Need an "Internet of Not Only Customers"
CRM software vendors tout a similar story-line. "Focus on customers", they all say. SalesForce, for example, advocates creating an "Internet of Customers" and become a "Customer Company". But paradoxically, customer fixation may not be how to best improve customer growth, engagement and customer experience. If anything, establish an "Internet of Not Only Customers". Turn into a "Connections Company". To help pull this off, CRM software needs to be more context-aware and behave more like a graph database. Knowing customers requires also knowing all their possible contextual identities and corresponding connections to others.[read more]

A compilation of this year's biggest tech turkeys -- just in time for Thanksgiving.
Fourteen of the year's most embarrassing blunders in technology, by Amazon, Apple, Google, Uber and more -- all for your holiday enjoyment.
After months of "not dead yet" declarations, the streaming-TV startup files for Chapter 11 reorganization, the clearest sign that a Supreme Court ruling set it on a road to nowhere.
The Roku 3 is the best streaming-video box yet, with tons of content sources, lightning-fast performance, and an innovative remote with built-in headphone jack.
The US Copyright Office says the online-TV startup doesn't qualify -- yet -- for a content license that would let it restart streaming.
A small executive team will be the only ones remaining at the embattled TV-streaming startup, after a Supreme Court ban on its service scared off potential investors.
A judge grants broadcasters' request for a temporary injunction against the embattled video streaming service, which has sought to reclassify itself as a cable provider.
The company is releasing an app for Android that lets users watch and record over-the-air broadcast television.
After a Supreme Court ruling, the streaming TV service changed its licensing model in an attempt to stay in business.
Two of Aereo's 11 cities have stopped accepting new customers, as the company that streams over-the-air broadcasts runs out of capacity in Atlanta and New York ahead of the Olympics.

The mock interviews that took place on October 7 paired students with faculty members at Proviso East to help the students practice answering the questions that are part of a typical job interview.
