SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--Casey Container Corporation (OTCBB:CSEY) has amended its July 1, 2011 Funding Agreement with Crown Hospitality Group, LLC. Instead of funding in tranches over a twelve-month period, the entire $4 million is due to be funded in full on or around February 29, 2012.
"Robust inquiries about Casey's PET and HDPE biodegradable plastics continue to steadily roll in from potential customers all over the world. Several international companies have also made requests to form joint venture partnerships with us to deliver biodegradable plastics in their respective industries"
Although there have been unforeseen delays in receiving the installments agreed upon in the original Funding Agreement, Casey Container has been in discussions with Crown Hospitality Group regarding a potential increase of funding to accommodate international manufacturing facilities. The additional facilities would produce its biodegradable preforms using the organic biodegradable plastic additive EcoPure?. Casey will be filing a Form 8-K with the Securities Exchange Commission.
"Robust inquiries about Casey's PET and HDPE biodegradable plastics continue to steadily roll in from potential customers all over the world. Several international companies have also made requests to form joint venture partnerships with us to deliver biodegradable plastics in their respective industries," commented CEO Martin Nason. "The need for a truly biodegradable, affordable solution for environmentally friendly preforms, bottles and containers is enormous. The demand and anticipation we have experienced is very promising, and we are confident that the current worldwide demand will continue to be significant. This will allow us to rapidly build and sustain maximum production once we receive the full funding and launch production."
Casey has identified an ideal property for its first biodegradable preform and bottling facility, and intends to sign a lease and order equipment immediately after receiving its funding.
About Casey Container
Casey Container is engaged in the design and custom manufacture of biodegradable PET, HDPE and other plastic polymer preforms, bottles and containers for use in the bottled water, beverage and consumer products industries. Casey Container seeks to capture an increasing market share in this extremely large and growing sector by offering biodegradable plastic packaging solutions leveraging the EcoPure? additive.

In 2004, William Gale penned a one-page piece for TaxNotes arguing, "Roughly 97 percent of small businesses would not be affected at all by increases in the top two tax rates."
That line has been repeated frequently in light of the upcoming expiration of high-bracket tax cuts.
Kevin Hassett and Alan Viard in today's WSJ counter the logic, essentially correcting Gale's overinterpretation. It may be true that 97 of tax returns with small biz income are not in the top tax brackets, but that is not the same as 97 percent of small businesses. Gale should know better.
The 3% figure, which is computed from IRS data, is based on simply counting the number of returns with any pass-through business income. So, if somebody makes a little money selling products on eBay and reports that income on Schedule C of their tax return, they are counted as a small business. The fact that there are millions of people in the lower tax brackets with small amounts of business income may be interesting for some purposes, but it is irrelevant for the assessment of the economic impact of the tax hikes.
The numbers are clear. According to IRS data, fully 48% of the net income of sole proprietorships, partnerships, and S corporations reported on tax returns went to households with incomes above $200,000 in 2007.
This shouldn't be a political issue, but too many folks are in denial that high income taxes on the "rich" are big burdens on entrepreneurs.

It seems everyone has forgotten the premise on which our Founding Fathers created the Second Amendment when they wrote the Bill of Rights.
It wasn't so we could have the biggest, baddest weapon available, or for sports hunting, and it wasn't even for self-defense. The Second Amendment was created to ensure that our citizens could protect themselves from the tyranny of government. For 250 years it has done that.
Today, gun control advocates again threaten our rights by asking a powerful central government to punitively take away these rights, without regard for the Constitution, even though similar laws passed by the federal government have never reduced or checked crime or murder one scintilla.
Proposed gun control legislation is nothing more than feel-good politics and does not address the root of the problem--an America dominated by political correctness and liberal ideology.
Americans are failing to challenge mentally unstable people, for fear of being wrong, even though many people later say there was something seriously wrong with that individual. Our government looks the other way when violent and bloody movies and video games are manufactured and sold, because they are produced by powerful liberals who support their radical ideology.
Wouldn't it be novel if Congress finally chose to defend our hard-won constitutional rights instead of finding different ways to take them away?

Where we got the idea to use baby monitors, I don't know. I'm pretty sure it came from Jaime, though. His girls - Carmen, Sophie and Bella (she's the weird one; I caught her burying a muffin tin in my yard once) - are in elementary school now, but he likes gadgets.
"You can hear a baby fart from a mile away with these things," he said, tossing us each a hand-held unit. "They're awesome."
Jessica, it seemed, had a plan. And by "plan" I mean something dumb she cooked up after a daylong "Law & Order" and Diet Coke binge. We would "get to the bottom of this," she said. We'd "canvas the area" and "call in favors." Oh! And we should wear cloaks, she decided. "Black cloaks."
"When do we go see Huggy Bear?" I asked.
"We'll just put the base of the baby monitor inside Darleen's apartment," she said, ignoring my cynicism. "And we'll spy with these little babies." She grabbed both hand-held baby monitor units and waggled them at me.
"Then, when the mysterious garage vandal comes back for Darleen's box," she said. "We'll nab him."
"Nab him?" I said. "Really?"
"Yes, we'll nab him. Then we'll ask him whether Darleen is coming to the party or not. He can come, too."
"Great! Can we gag him with your RSVP cards?" I asked. "You know, when we nab him?"
"Ye of little faith," she said.
So this - this weird course of logic and extravagant conclusion jumping - was how Jessica and I found ourselves late on a Friday night, playing Scrabble at our kitchen table with a baby monitor between us. Somewhere, the beautiful people were wearing tube tops and slurping martinis at Club Soda or Cork 'N Cleaver. Not us. We were wearing mud masks (filled with "natural botanicals;" different from unnatural botanicals, like plastic poinsettias) and arguing whether or not "obnoxicity" was a real word.
"It is," Jessica said. "I read it on a blog."
This probably sounds a little strange to some of you - bugging a woman's abandoned house for basically no good reason whatsoever. But Jessica and I do a lot of things for no good reason. Frankly, there aren't a whole lot of mysteries in our neighborhood. Things can get, well, a little predictable even. We know why Mrs. Collins draws her drapes every day at noon. (So she can walk around naked.) And those mysterious unmarked packages delivered to that guy on Columbia Avenue? They're filled with "man wigs." He's a "man wig" wearer.
But this next-door neighbor of ours - the mysterious one who always seemed like a big blond liar - she ditched her apartment during the night. And right afterward, our garage was ransacked. Maybe you wouldn't be interested; maybe you'd be too busy living a fabulously full life to snoop around and get yourself involved in something that was probably none of your business.
Not us. Gossip is like the high-fructose corn syrup of our neighborhood. It's everywhere; you can't avoid it. And maybe it's not good for you - maybe it makes you fat and will one day ruin Western civilization - but it's also pretty tasty.
Then again, high-fructose corn syrup doesn't come after you in the middle of the night with a shotgun. We were about to learn that fact the hard way.

Students most likely to complete their graduate studies are those who are viewed as junior colleagues in a positive relationship with their advisors and who are well integrated into their department's or lab's intellectual community. Where one woman graduate student finds support and guidance from her advisor, another is stifled by her advisor's inconsistent and inappropriate behavior. Systems of accountability, together with trained and caring advisors, increase the chances that doctoral students will successfully navigate the path to research careers.
NCWIT's Women in IT: By the Numbers presents the most compelling statistics on women's participation in IT on a single page.
Entrepreneurial Series Report #4 summarizes research literature on women's entrepreneurship in the information technology field with a focus on networking and access to social capital.
The original 2007 report, Who Invents IT? An Analysis of Women's Participation in Information Technology Patenting, examined the rates at which women have been patenting in information technology (IT), how these rates have evolved between 1980-2005, and how these rates differ across IT industry sub-categories and across specific organizations. This edition updates the previous report, exploring these trends from 2006-2010.
Counselors and others in an advising role can use this interactive lesson plan to introduce middle and high school students to computing and careers.
Engage students not already drawn to computing by creating academic and social environments where these students feel like they belong. Students respond positively to solving real-life problems that draw on their existing knowledge and interests and that involve collaboration in hands-on projects. By focusing on problem-solving skills, the computer programming environment "Learning to Program with Alice" takes a new approach that helps students see programming as a series of causal relationships.
This report includes data about IT jobs and computer science education, disaggregated by state and congressional district.
Or, use the interactive map to look at education and jobs in your area.
This resource provides tips mid-career technical women can use to advance their careers.
View online.
Managers and others can use this guide to find NCWIT resources that will help them create highly-productive, diverse technical teams. Resources are catalogued by the key "change areas" identified in the NCWIT Change Model for Industry: 1) Top Leadership Support, 2) Supervisory Relationships, 3) Recruitment and Selection, 4) Talent Development and Mentoring, 5) Performance Evaluation and Promotion, 6) Support for Competing Responsibilities, 7) Reduction of Subtle Biases, and 8) Ongoing Evaluation. Space also exists for adding company-specific resources into the guide.
Sexism has measurably harmful effects, but sexist behavior can be minimized. Instructors and supervisors can practice zero tolerance and facilitate positive peer interactions, and they can provide highly visible leadership, policies, and procedures that go beyond legalities to explicitly denounce sexism. This case study identifies available surveys and issues that should be considered when assessing the prevalence of sexist behavior in an organization.
Research shows that even individuals committed to equality harbor unconscious biases that impact everyday decisions and interactions. In the IT workplace, unconscious gender bias can mislead employers, both male and female, to make inaccurate judgments in hiring, performance reviews, and promotion. This case study highlights findings on the differences between letters of recommendation for women and men and gives practical ways to reduce bias when writing letters of recommendation.
International Women's Day-in-a-Box: Raising Awareness, Igniting Change is designed to help IT companies and departments celebrate successes and address barriers to women's full participation in IT, and capitalize on women's innovative thinking and leadership potential. If your organization is eager to promote diversity in order to become globally competitive, then International Women's Day-in-a-Box is for you. Use this resource to plan company activities and events, and to establish a culture and expectation for broader diversity of thought in IT.
Entrepreneurial Series Report #2 summarizes research literature on women's entrepreneurship in the information technology field with a focus on positive illusions, motivations, management style, stereotypes, stress, and psychological traits.

CHICAGO (AP) - The biggest study of its kind says Ritalin and other drugs used to treat attention deficit disorder are safe for adults' hearts.
The results echo findings in children published by the same authors last month.
The new review involved health records for more than 440,000 adults aged 25 to 65. It found that those on ADHD drugs had about the same number of heart attacks, strokes and sudden heart-related deaths as adults who didn't use those drugs.
The research will be published in the Journal of the American Medical Association's Dec. 28 print edition, but journal editors said they released it online Monday because of its public health importance.

FORT MYERS, Fla.- Police were called to Sieanna Lakes Apartments on Winkler Ave. after a bullet was shot through a man's home on Friday night.
When police investigated the apartment they suspected the bullet came from, they found a spent shell casing and a hole above the kitchen stove. The occupants of the home, including 25-year-old William Tuers, attempted to conceal the hole with salt and pepper shakers, denying that they owned a gun.
Tuers eventually admitted to owning a firearm, which was located in the parking lot of the apartment complex.
He is a registered felon due to a conviction in New Jersey for fleeing and eluding.
Tuers was arrested for Possession of a Firearm by a convicted felon.

Julia also now has the problem that FP have mixed up the spreadsheets with names and addresses on so she now has to go through them carefully to work out which orders have been sent. The whole situation has been a nightmare for us. Hopefully all orders for the Witches will be in the post in the next seven to ten days. Once again, thanks for your patience in this matter.

A big apology to all of you who have ordered The Witches Collector's Edition and have not yet received your copy. All we can say is we are doing all we can to rectify the situation. The problem is that the company dealing with order fulfilment are simply not up to the task.

Spring is back and so are farmers markets. And that means a whole new chance to make friends with strange and unusual vegetables. Or to rehabilitate some old familiars.
The number of farmers markets has more than doubled during the past decade, topping more than 8,000 in 2013. Matching that proliferation is equally wild growth in the variety of produce sold at them. Heirloom tomatoes and carrots in funky colors? That's just the start. Think rainbow-spectrum radishes, unusual peas, beans and legumes; gooseberries and quince.
But trying something new — whether it's an unfamiliar vegetable or an exotic preparation — can be intimidating. The best advice is to start slow.
If you like arugula, branch out to watercress. In baby form, it's a perfect salad green, a sturdier, even more peppery alternative to the more ubiquitous arugula. It also makes a stellar pesto, says Diana Henry, author most recently of the cookbook "A Change of Appetite" (Octopus Publishing, 2014). "I actually like it better than basil pesto," Henry says. "Basil can be quite perfumed. This is a bit more earthy, more peppery."
If you like cabbage, try kohlrabi. A stout bulb with a thick skin, the flesh is crisp like a radish, and as brightly flavored as cabbage.
"I predict that kohlrabi's going to be the next big thing," says Martha Rose Shulman, author most recently of "The Simple Art of Vegetarian Cooking" (Rodale, 2014), noting that some companies are beginning to package kohlrabi for lunch boxes.
"Shred it to make a slaw or a stir-fry with kohlrabi and some greens," she says. "I recently had a really great salad — feta, olives, a little diced kohlrabi. It really absorbs the dressing."
Shulman also is a big fan of pea shoots, slender tendrils from the same plant. They taste like peas, but can be treated like greens. "Those are just beautiful," she says. "I like to use those in stir-fries and just cook them up and serve them up as a side. They're very good with grains."
Cardoons, a member of the thistle family that's a foraged food for many Italians, also can be found at some farmers markets. "Certainly cardoons are a vegetable that people are mystified with when they do see it," says Michele Scicolone, whose most recent book is "The Italian Vegetable Cookbook" (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2014).
"You have to blanche it and peel it and then you can bread it and fry it or gratinee it with butter and cheese, and it's very tasty," she says. "It tastes like artichoke hearts."
Scicolone also champions zucchini flowers, another Italian specialty that can be chopped for a frittata, tossed in a salad, or stuffed with mozzarella and deep fried. "It may seem like an exotic delicacy, but to a hungry Italian of a certain era, it's a vegetable," she says. "When I was a kid, my mom would make little fritters with them. We would eat them like that for an appetizer."
Too shy to try? You can still set your sights on new preparations for old standbys. Henry tosses copious bundles of fresh herbs and edible flowers into salads. She thinly shaves carrots, beets and fennel and dresses them with nothing but lemon, oil and salt. Sometimes carrot is paired with the spicy Japanese radish called daikon.
"Carrot is sweet, but (daikon) has a peppery taste," she says. "When you mix them together you get an interplay with them."
And don't forget about spinach, Shulman says. "We've gotten so used to bagged baby spinach year round, but there's nothing to compare with a lush bunch of spinach that's just been harvested," she says. Blanch it, steam it or hit it with olive oil, garlic and herbs and toss it into a frittata, gratin or quiche. "They are so sweet, and so worth the time it takes to get the sand out," she says.
Smoky Grilled Zucchini
3 medium zucchini
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 teaspoons brown sugar
Fresh limes, for squeezing
Heat the grill to medium-high. Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise, then rub them all over with the olive oil.
In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, paprika and brown sugar. Sprinkle all over the zucchini. Grill the zucchini until tender and charred, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.
Servings: 6.

Grilled Eggplant Bruschetta
1 large eggplant, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick slices
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
2 medium tomatoes, seeds removed, diced
2 ribs celery, diced
1 orange or yellow bell pepper, cored and diced
3 scallions, sliced
6 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
Balsamic glaze, to serve
Baguette or pita, to serve
Heat the grill to medium. Use 2 tablespoons of the oil to brush each eggplant slice on both sides. Sprinkle the slices with salt and pepper. Grill until tender, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
Allow the eggplant slices to cool until easily handled, then dice. In a large bowl, gently mix together the eggplant, tomatoes, celery, bell pepper, scallions, garlic, basil and the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Allow to sit for at least 2 hours for best flavor. Serve on baguette or pita bread and drizzled with balsamic glaze.
Servings: 8.

A second-grade teacher at W.E. Cherry Elementary School in Orange Park was arrested Monday morning on the Westside after police interrupted her having sex with a teenage boy, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.
Kimberly Brody, 40, is charged with unlawful sexual activity on a victim 16 or 17 years old.
According to a police report, the boy was naked and Brody was half-naked when officers responded to a call about a suspicious vehicle in a cul-de-sac in the 7300 block of Westland Oaks Drive.
A spokesman for Clay County schools said Brody is on paid administrative leave.

- "We're not giving away the crown jewels on this call," says one of Prospect Capital's (PSEC +2.2%) executives on a contentious earnings call following its plan to try and unlock value by spinning of certain of its businesses.
- Analysts/investors on the call are frustrated by a lack of detail, but the Prospect executive (presumably CEO John Barry or COO Grier Eliasek) notes the company's plans/ideas have been outright stolen by competitors in the past. Management, however, believes the parts - its CLO structured credit, online lending, and real estate businesses - are greater than the market currently values the sum.
- Still nicely higher on the session, Prospect has given back about one-third of its gains since the call started.
- Previously: Prospect Capital up 2.6% after announcing spinoff strategy
Thu, Nov. 6, 4:51 PM
- Prospect (NASDAQ:PSEC) hopes to "unlock value" by spinning off certain "pure play" business strategies to shareholders. Those to be spun are strategies which have grown faster than the company's overall growth rate over the past few years, and that need something less constraining than a BDC structure to continue that growth.
- Initial focus will be on three separate companies consisting of portions of Prospect's CLO structured credit, online lending, and real estate businesses. The goal is to complete the spinoffs in early 2015.
- Turning to Q3 operations, NII of $94.5M or $0.28 per share vs. $82.3M and $0.32 one year ago. NII rose and NII per share fell Y/Y thanks to non-recurring dividend and prepayment income in the year-ago period. Dividend is roughly $0.33.
- Net increase in net assets from operations of $84.1M or $0.24 per share vs. $79.9M and $0.31 one year ago.
- Net asset value per share of $10.47 vs. $10.56 at the end of Q2.
- Shares +2.6% after-hours

Deal #2 was for a property in Fort Wayne, Indiana managed by a co-investment property manager with whom Prospect has previously co-invested. Deal #3 was a seven self-storage property portfolio in Michigan.
- The company structures its real estate investments as investments of debt and equity into multiple REITs. Prospect currently has three of these, each with different operating managers and co-investors. In the past two years, Prospect has invested $365M in 16 different deals.

Fri, Oct. 10, 4:24 PM
- "The sector's drawdown is 50% of what occurred in the 2011 euro-crisis without anything like the accompanying conditions," writes a bullish BDC Reporter, noting the sector is lower by about 14% since its February high, and stalwart Ares Capital (ARCC -3.1%) is trading at a discount to book value for the first time in years.
- Another example is TCP Capital (TCPC -2.5%), down about 15% from a high hit three months ago. The company has paid out a steadily-increasing dividend since going public, current and future earnings are in excess of the payout, the balance sheet was recently strengthened with medium-term debt capital, the average cost of debt is 2.63%. and its investments yield 9.2%. What's not to like?
- If the current benign business and credit cycle is indeed over, then BDCs have further to fall. If, as BDC Reporter believes, low rates are here to stay for awhile (and even if rates rise the BDC sector should prosper), BDCs are reaching bargain levels.

- As income favorites, business development companies often catch a bid during broader market selloffs (and bond market rallies), but the small caps (IWM -1.3%) are bearing the brunt of today's selling and the BDCs tend to fall into the that sector (though excluded from Russell indices).
- Fifth Street Finance (FSC -1.1%) has a market cap of $1.3B; Main Street Capital (MAIN -2.6%) - market cap of $1.4B; Apollo Investment (AINV -2%) - $2B; Triangle Capital (TCAP -1.3%) - $730M; Ares Capital (ARCC -0.4%) - $5.1B. Hanging in there better than the rest is Prospect Capital (PSEC -0.1%), with a $3.45B market cap.

- It's a mixed securities shelf with common and preferred stock, along with debt as being possible vehicles for a capital raise. Up about 1.3% early in the session, Prospect (NASDAQ:PSEC) is ahead by 0.6% at the moment.

- The revolving credit facility for subsidiary Prospect Capital (NASDAQ:PSEC) Funding LLC has been increased to $1.5B, with the term extended to 5.5 years from today, and the pricing cut 50 basis points to 30-day Libor plus 2.25%.
- The facility has closed $800M in commitments to date.

Tue, Aug. 26, 11:48 AM
- Noting this quarter's earnings report contained no usual announcement of future distributions, one caller asks whether a dividend cut is in the cards (the company has previously announced payouts of about $0.11 per month for the rest of the year).
- Another analyst notes there have been several consecutive quarters now when NII didn't match the dividend, and by his calculations, the portfolio yield (now at 12.1%, down from 12.5% the previous quarter) would need to rise 100 basis points for NII to rise to the level of the payout. Will a return of capital be necessary to fund the dividend? Management responds that it wants to fund the dividend out of income, and earlier in the call noted - without giving numbers - that the company still has spillover income to help fund payouts.
- Also noted by management as ways to boost income would be higher leverage, cutting costs, and finding deals with higher yields.
- Previously: Prospect Capital results hurt by slow origination activity
- Down more than 5% earlier, PSEC has been bouncing through the call, now off 2.7%
Mon, Aug. 25, 5:15 PM
- FQ4 net investment income of $84.1M or $0.25 per share is well south of expectations for $0.32 and stands against $98.5M and $0.31 one year ago. Originations slipped to $444M in FQ4 from $1.3B a quarter previous.
- The quarterly dividend is roughly $0.33 per share.
- The debt-to-equity ratio of 72.9% is up from 67.9% at the end of last quarter and 55.7% a year ago. Annualized yield of portfolio of 12.1% slides 40 basis points from the March quarter.
- Net asset value of $10.56 per share slips from $10.68 at end of March quarter. Today's closing stock price was $10.98.
- Conference call at 11 ET
- Previously: Prospect Capital misses by $0.07, misses on revenue

Celebrity Tanning Products
All Celebrity Tanning products are specifically designed for indoor tanning with natural and scientific ingredients that
stimulate melanin production in your skin and amplify UV light, as well as skin conditioners that help restore lost nutrients and keep
your skin moisturized during your session.
Why Use a Lotion?
You will tan faster and darker if you do.
Questions & Answers
Q. What is a "TINGLE" lotion?
A. Extremely popular "Tingle" or "Hot Action" products contain an ingredient called Benzyl, Methyl Nicotinate, or Ethylene Glycol a substance
often found in muscle rubs that are recommended by doctors for muscle soreness. This ingredient creates a reddening and warming or "tingle"
effect, as a result of increased microcirculation – opening of the blood vessels – in the epidermis layer of the skin, increasing blood flow
and better oxygenation of the skin. Oxygenation helps the delivery of required nutrients throughout the skin, helping to speed up the skin's
natural growth and maintenance processes. The more oxygen your skin gets during tanning, the better your results.
Q. What are bronzers?
A. More popular than ever, tanning products that contain bronzing agents contain special ingredients that deliver a colored appearance to the
skin for an instant "temporary tan."

This resolution, and a letter to Governor Mario Cuomo, NYS Education Department Commissioner John King, NYS Senator Jack Martins, NYS Assemblywoman Michelle Schimel and other state officials, was sent by Great Neck Public Schools Superintendent Thomas Dolan.
The resolution was approved by the GNPS Board of Education at the June 4 school board meeting.
This coming Tuesday, June 18, some of us here on the Great Neck peninsula will have an opportunity to vote. Three villages --- the Village of Great Neck, the Village of Kings Point and the Village of Lake Success--- will hold elections for mayor, trustees and village justice. None of these elections are contested, but all of these elections are important. And each and every election deserves our votes.
Of course, in a contested election, it is much easier to get out the vote. The residents come to the polls to be sure that their candidates come out the winners; it's very important to them.
Please, please, all you senior walkers, youngsters on bikes with black hoodies and people taking chances crossing streets, take care! Take good care! Drivers can't see you if you don't have something reflective on your clothes. Hey, the person hit by a car one evening might be you or someone you love!
As I'm emptying the garbage pail along Middle Neck Road (it's 5:15 a.m.), a thought pops into my mind. In the next four hours the streets are going to be aligned with spectators, fans and family as the annual Great Neck Memorial Day Parade kicks off.
I must take exception to Mike Barry's recent column trumpeting the County Office of Legislative Budget Review's (OLBR)'s "verdict" that the County Comptroller's office sought and received adequate backup for payments to Super Storm Sandy contractors. Nothing could be further from the truth.
The Board of Trustees and staff of the Great Neck Library appreciate the support of the community, shown by the overwhelming approval of the library's operating budget. Thank you for your vote of confidence which enables the library to continue to deliver services that are responsive to the needs of the community.
The Great Neck Library budget vote: was "yes" 1,038 and "no" 403.
We heartily congratulate our Great Neck Public Schools Board of Education for the public support that approved the upcoming 2013-2014 school budget! The results were 1,183 "yes" votes and 321 "no" votes.
How proud we are to live in a community that consistently supports the future, the education of our children. Great Neck understands and appreciates the quality, top-notch education that is always provided for Great Neck's children. Each and every child is treated as an individual, with each child's individual needs met.
I live and work in Great Neck and can't figure out why isn't more being done to promote the public service website www.LiveInGreatNeck.com?
It's a site that we created free. It takes no ads. We make no money.
The site was written up in The New York Times and has all positive news about living in Great Neck.
Bob Lipp
Just to inform you that there is a book store in Great Neck, in the Guild Hall now named the "Book Nook' at All Saints' Church at 855 Middle Neck Road. Thousands of books, all categories, are one dollar a piece. Come for a visit Tuesdays, 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. (or on request).

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - Traffic on Daniels Parkway is moving again after a five car pileup this morning.
The westbound lanes were closed near JetBlue Park for almost 40 minutes during the height of the morning commute.
According to deputies, the accident happened around 6:30 this morning, when the driver of a silver Honda rear-ended a Kia Optima.
That crash set off a chain reaction, crashing into three other cars.
The driver of the Honda and the Kia were taken to Gulf Coast Hospital with minor injuries.
Deputies are citing the driver of the Honda for careless driving.

Critical Read
What: "The Persistence of Innovation in Government: A Guide for Innovative Public Servants," by Sandford Borins, published by the IBM Center for the Business of Government.
Why: Over the past two decades, government agencies have increasingly collaborated with other public entities and the private sector. Approximately two thirds of the applicants for the 2010 Harvard University Kennedy School's Innovations in American Government Awards reported collaborating outside the government, compared with 28 percent of award semifinalists between 1990 and 1994.
And as collaboration has increased, so has attention. Applicants for the 2010 awards have reported significantly more coverage of their projects than their counterparts from the early 1990s. Almost 90 percent of the 2010 semifinalists said their projects got some attention from the media.
The report also details the common obstacles innovators faced, and distills their experiences into a list of broad suggestions for both innovators and government executives.
Verbatim: "Societal awareness of public sector innovation has increased to the point where it is no longer a matter of only specialist concern among public servants, the proverbial inside baseball," Borins writes. "Public sector innovation has become more transparent, with increased media attention, more external evaluation, and more transfer of innovative ideas and practices."

Travis Golden, Michelle Peeler and Teresa Liggins were arrested August 28, 2011 for alleged involvement in two separate prostitution incidents near the state capitol.
A Lincoln police officer seemed to have an easy time nabbing prostitution suspects in the shadow of the state capitol this weekend. Actually, there was no shadow since the crimes were reported at 1:50am.
A plain clothes police officer reports that while in an unmarked vehicle, Michelle Peeler approached him just south of the capitol building and offered to perform a sex act for $40. She was arrested for soliciting prostitution.
Then 20 minutes later, the officer reports that Travis Golden approached him on a bicycle. He asked the undercover officer what he needed. The officer says he simply replied that he was just, "looking for a friend." A few minutes later, Golden returned with Teresa Liggins who offered to perform a specific act on the officer for $40. Golden was arrested for pandering. Liggins was arrested for soliciting prostitution.

For a while there, Houston-born Charlie Robison was everybody's favorite country-music bad boy, the guy who would say anything at any time, the kind of guy the Nashville suits fear. Along the way, he married and had children, and for a long period music seemed to take a back seat to his ranch in Bandera and his private life. But after a four-year recording hiatus, in 2009 Robison responded to some tough times in his life with his best album in a long while. Beautiful Day is part melancholy, part regret, part angry rock-and-roller. Yet while some describe it as Robison's "divorce album," overall the record is more about picking yourself up out of the dirt, getting back on the horse that threw you and moving forward than about bitterness and hurt. Certainly his divorce from Dixie Chick Emily Erwin resonates throughout the album, no more so than on wicked rocker "Yellow Blues": "Maybe 'cause you're yellow / Maybe that's the reason that I've got the blues." Besides the Beautiful Day songs, it's a safe bet Robison will throw in rowdy old favorites like "Bar Light" and one of Texas's favorite sing-alongs, "My Hometown."
