Spy Shots: Grand Bentley covered in camo before Pebble Beach unveiling
by Damon Lavrinc (RSS feed) on Jul 30th, 2009 at 2:58PM
Like every big reveal of the past few years, Bentley has decided to dish out a series of teasers before unveiling its new model to the world. Thankfully, we're only a few weeks away from the Grand Bentley's debut at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, and before the main event takes place, we've got a few spy shots of the flying-B's large-and-in-charge luxo-barge.Although the Grand Bentley is coated in copious amounts of camo, when we look back at the two teasers Bentley released of the hood and rear-quarter, it doesn't take much imagination to piece things together. There's a few... Read More

Roche Puts Hold on Tamiflu in United States
Roche (Basel, Switzerland, www.roche.com) has put a temporary halt on distribution of the influenza vaccine "Tamiflu" to the United Sates in an effort to deter companies from stockpiling the vaccine for employee use, according to an article in the Oct. 27 edition of The New York Times.
According to the report, the hoarding is a reaction to the recent avian flu pandemic, which has killed more than 60 people in Asia, but has not threatened the United States. Roche representatives stated that there are currently sufficient allotments of the vaccine in the United States and additional quantities will be released as the need arises. However, wholesalers were advised to limit the amount of drug distributed to pharmacies to "preserve their inventory until the beginning of flu season."
Roche has also suspended shipments to Canada and limited supplies to Germany and Switzerland, according to The Times.

This video will make your day! A group of 8th graders at a West Michigan middle school showed just how much they cared about one of their classmates, and learned a lot in the process.

A generous customer made this family's day when he not only paid for their meal, but left this beautiful note of encouragement.
Guest speaker Wayne Leideker will share his son Danny's story and give insight to families with special needs children.
Bravo! A Houston waiter refused to serve customers that were rude to this five-year-old boy with Down Syndrome.

Music star Akon has reportedly taken responsibility and the necessary steps to becoming the legal father of two boys born in the late 2000's out of wedlock.
According to reports, Akon has sought out legal custody of the kids.
Akon "smacked that" … and now he's taking responsibility for it — filing paternity docs in court last month to become the legal father of two children he had out of wedlock. The singer filed a Petition for Legitimation in GA Superior Court … he claims he's the father of two minor sons born in 2008 and 2009. In the docs, Akon asks the court to grant him joint legal custody of the little tykes, allow him to be involved in all major decisions and most importantly to establish child support — even asking that his enormously high income be a factor in how much he'll have to shell out. (TMZ)
Akon reportedly never shunned his connection to the boys but is now ready to take legal responsiblity.
Not only that … he's also requesting the kids be eligible to inherit from him — same as if they were born in wedlock — and to keep his last name, "Thiam" as their own. Sources close to the singer tell TMZ, "Akon has been a father to the boys since they were born, and this is just a necessary step to make sure he is legally recognized as such." FYI — Akon has made it clear in the past he has multiple kids with at least 3 different baby mamas. Thanksgiving must be fun. (TMZ)
Back in October 2009, the popular singer caught heat for reportedly avoiding child support payments.
Akon's baby mother is still allegedly chasing behind her ex for child support payments, but according to Akon she needs to look harder. Farrah Coleman, the mother of one of Akon's kids, claims the Senegal-born singer hasn't been paying his child support for the one child they have together. Every time attempts are made to file him legal papers, he's allegedly nowhere to be found. She's now threatening to take an ad out in Monday's edition of the Los Angeles Times. (VIBE)
Three years ago, Akon relished the fact he had fathered multiple children.
"I think kids are a blessing," Akon told NyDailyNews on Wednesday . "[To set the record straight], I never ran away from my responsibilities and I never plan to. Everything I am doing now is for [my other five kids] anyway, so the more kids I can have, the better. I just love them." With five kids in tow, and two more kids under the age of six months, looks like singer Akon is well on his way to fulfilling his dreams of having a big family. The singer is a father again for the sixth time thanks to a young lady named Susan Owori, who he met while on tour in Uganda last year. As for his baby with Susan, Akon said, "It's a boy and he's handsome as hell." (Black Celeb Kids)

SOUTH BEND This week marks a milestone for efforts to find a new tenant for the former College Football Hall of Fame building in downtown South Bend.
A proposed agreement in the works would give preference to plans for a Culinary Arts and Food Education Center.
"But we haven't found any place else that combines all these things, we think this is a one of a kind and perhaps down the road it will be a role model for other cities," said Donna Pfeil with Culinary Center Coalition of South Bend.
The downtown already has a unique food related identity as the place you go to escape the chain restaurants and experience fine dining at independent establishments.
The Culinary Arts and Food Education Center is designed to build on that identity.
While some football fields have a dome high atop the stadium, the one proposed for the Gridiron Plaza outside the former Hall of Fame lies right at ground level.
"At one end, where the old football field is, we would create a geodesic dome to be able to do hydroponics in that area, and then let light down into the basement and light up that whole dark area," said Pfeil.
60 percent of the space in the old hall building lies underground and it took some over-the-top thinking to turn that liability into an asset.
The dome allows for a one cubic acre hydroponic growing space capable of producing more than three million cherry tomatoes a year.
As for the building's signature circular staircase and its accompanying football sculpture, "We perceive putting in an aquaculture program there with three level aquarium shall we say that's divided into triangles so that we can demonstrate aquaculture, raising fish to eat, Tilapia in particular," said Pfeil.
The final piece of the puzzle involves moving Ivy Tech's culinary arts program into the building where students would turn the fresh fish and produce into their own unique creations.
What you end up with is a demonstration site for urban food technologies that doubles as a tourist attraction.
"And the public can come down there too because there will be windows both into the baking and the culinary kitchens so you can come down and see what those students are doing," said Pfeil. "We also envision a café on the first floor run by the hospitality students and of course the food and everything will come out of the culinary kitchens."
The project is bold and unique, but not cheap. The estimated price tag is $6 million.
A proposed memorandum of understanding would give the culinary center supporters six to eight months to figure out a way to raise the needed cash.
The proposed agreement is expected to come up for a vote before South Bend's Redevelopment Commission on Thursday.

HIV-positive man kicked out of basketball rec league
When 21-year-old Dakota Basinger, an aspiring musician, was hit with some of the worst news of his life, he turned to music to share the news and express his emotions like he's done so many times in the past.
His latest song entitled "My Best Friend" that he posted on YouTube contained a surprise ending: "Results back he has HIV and my best friend was me."
Then Basinger was hit again. The second time it was while he was playing in the last game of the season of the Kissimmee City Parks and Rec League at Denn John Middle School.
"(A) guy approached me, works for the city, came up to me, he said, 'Are you HIV-positive?," said Basinger. "I said, 'Why?' He was like, 'You're not allowed to play in the game, in the league.'"
"I asked the guy, 'Are you educated on this?'" said Dakota's mom, Lisa Basinger. "He said, 'No, but I'm doing this because the City of Kissimmee wants me to take him out of the game.' I said, 'Who is the city?' He didn't have an answer."
City of Kissimmee Manager of Communications and Public Information Arin Thrower told Local 6 that the worker was specifically told not to approach Basinger.
"On Sunday, April 13, 2014, a part-time Parks, Recreation and Public Facilities employee with the City of Kissimmee acted independently and without supervisor approval, when he removed a participant from a city recreational basketball game due to a medical condition," said Thrower. "The city has taken corrective action to ensure this does not happen in the future."
"They said that, you know, we don't want other people getting it," said Dakota Basinger. "Well, you obviously don't know much about HIV."
"It's ignorance, total ignorance," said Lisa Basinger. "How can you be this ignorant in 2014? I mean, we're not back in the '80s. You cannot catch this from casual contact, from playing basketball, or sweat, or spit, or anything like that."
Thrower said the worker is still employed with the city but that his status is currently under review.
Thrower said city supervisors called both Dakota and Lisa Basinger to apologize and invite the 21-year-old back to any and all city sports leagues and classes.
"They could apologize all they want but the humiliation I had to go through, I'm already going through enough being diagnosed a week ago," said Dakota Basinger.
The Basingers said they'd contacted an attorney in South Florida and are considering suing the city. They promised that any money won in a lawsuit would be donated to HIV awareness organizations.

BRYANT - The Bryant Hornets ended their 2012 season in disappointing fashion, falling to Cabot at home in the first round of the 7A state playoffs, 28-21. On Tuesday, the Hornets got back to work against someone other than themselves, battling the 7A State Champion Fayetteville and Pulaski Academy in benefit games.
With two 12-minute quarters against each, the Hornets worked on key issues and battled two good teams in doing so. First up was the Fayetteville Bulldogs. Coming off of a 2012 state title, the Bulldogs made the long trek to face Bryant and took advantage, outscoring Bryant 17-7.
BENTON – Losing six seniors from a state playoff team may seem like a lot to lose going into the next season, but the Benton Lady Panthers volleyball team is not shy on experience.
"We have five seniors this year and they all pretty much played last year, or played some," Benton Coach Brandy Chumley said. "They know what it takes, and I have a feeling they're going to do what it takes to have a good year. It's been fun so far."
BRYANT – What a difference a year makes. After winning the 7A/6A South conference with an undefeated record, the Bryant Lady Hornets volleyball team returns one player with extended varsity experience as Bryant graduated eight seniors last season. This year, the Lady Hornets have no seniors.
"We definitely look different," Bryant Coach Beth Solomon said. "Last year, our entire varsity, other than Abby Staton, were all seniors. This year, we look a little bit different, but we're still as aggressive. We're going to play just as intense.

Germany, 1979 (MIFF 1979)
Director: Krzysztof Zanussi
In the midst of the Second World War in occupied Poland, Friedrich, a young German officer of aristocratic background, meets his older cousin, Hans Albert. Both are part of the same regiment, stationed in a beautiful country estate. Both men take the opportunity to resume their philosophical discussions which began before the war when Hans Albert was a university teacher and Friedrich was his student. The discussions are joined by Elzbieta, the daughter of the Polish owner of the estate. Friedrich is deeply impressed by Elzbieta but, in spite of similar class and cultural backgrounds, she refuses to continue the discussions with him.
Following the advice of Hans Albert, Friedrich changes his attitude to Elzbieta and starts treating her roughly. But this apparently provokes her to change her attitude towards him and she asks to meet him in secret. The meeting turns out to be a cover for sabotage action. Elzbieta betrays Friedrich and conveys the information she has obtained from him to the partisans. Hans Albert is killed in action and one of the captured partisans turns out to be Elzbieta's brother. She starts to fight for his life by exploiting Friedrich's feelings for her. He continues to love her in spite of the betrayal. Eventually, the brother of Elzbieta is released, but it turns out that he is really her husband. Desperate, Friedrich takes his leave and marries his German fiancee. On the way back to the front, he pays another visit to the Polish estate, but he finds the place burned and Elzbieta a widow. Soon afterwards. Friedrich is killed in the Ukraine.
Years later, in the epilogue, his grown-up German daughter receives some reminders of her father. But she shows very little interest in all that remains of her cultural heritage. Like many young people, sha believes that the best way to liberate herself from the past is simply to reject it.

Motorists vs. Pedestrians: La Jolla survey says distracted driving is chief cause of accidents
By Ashley Mackin
After reporting on the Pedestrian Enforcement and Education Project (PEEP) carried out by the San Diego Police Department March 7, which emphasized pedestrian violations, La Jolla Light reached out to SDPD Traffic Division for the violations made by motorists when it comes to pedestrians.
SDPD Traffic Community Relations Officer Mark McCullough and San Diego Sheriff's Deputy Lt. Julius Faulkner discussed these violations and how the police are cracking down on them this month.
The most pervasive motorist violation is what police refer to as "distracted driving." McCullough said some of the other mistakes drivers make include violations of right-of-ways and failure to stop at an appropriate signal.
Distracted driving
A violation that takes many forms is driving while distracted, which is why April is National Distracted Driving Awareness month. In preparing for this month, the UC San Diego School of Medicine conducted a survey on cell phone usage and driving habits.
The survey was conducted Feb. 8-March 31, and focused on the driving habits of San Diego County residents, ages 30-64. Overall, 715 participants completed the survey. Results revealed using cell phones while operating a vehicle is the leading cause of driver distraction crashes in California.
The survey also revealed: 56 percent reported driving with a handheld phone and 92 percent drive with a hands-free phone; adults with children younger than 11 years old in the car were significantly more likely to text and to talk on a handheld phone, and 31 percent of respondents feel obliged to take a work- related call while driving.
Lt. Faulkner said while most people think of using a cell phone as the only definition of distracted driving, it can take many forms.
"Distracted driving is anything that's preventing you from keeping your eyes on the road and driving on the roadway," he said. "People putting on makeup in the car, people reading papers, people trying to read maps, people having conversations with passengers — that's all distracted driving."
For National Distracted Driving Awareness month, the California Highway Patrol and the San Diego Sheriff's Department are cracking down on distracted drivers throughout April.
McCullough said distracted driving goes "both ways" for drivers and pedestrians. He said when people are looking at a phone or iPod; they enter the crosswalk without looking up to see if it is safe to do so. "But we don't cite you for distracted walking ... when you are behind the wheel of a car you constitute a danger to others, so we do cite you for distracted driving."
Right-of-way violations
McCullough said one of the biggest moving violations he sees is right-of-way violations — mostly drivers turning right who get a green light and start to turn not realizing a pedestrian is at the sidewalk waiting to cross. He said when there are pedestrians with a green "walk" sign and a vehicle turns, that motorist constitutes a right-of-way violation.
"If a person has already entered the roadway and is crossing (near) that turning vehicle, that turning vehicle has to stop and yield that right of way," he said.

Blue is such a cool and calming color and if you were given the chance, would you choose to bathe your interior with blue LED interior lights? It's definitely a step out of the box from the conventional halogen yellow bulbs for sure and it's even a deviation from xenon white LED upgrades as well. The glow gives your car a much different look so that it looks different from everyone else's ride as well.

Bose Companion 5 - how to increase treble/mixer?
I have Bose Companion 5 speakers - USB connected. The only sound control is a base volume on the subwoofer module. There doesn't seem to be anyway to modify the treble volume nor do I see a mixer. Using Windows 7 Ultimate x64. The base, even when turned down is too deep and I would like to increase the treble so that voices are clearer. Bose support tech claims he doesn't use Windows so he can't help. Has anyone figured out how to adjust the sound with these speakers?
Thanks for any help

There doesn't seem to be much around for Windows 7 EQ, if there isn't one included with the sound device and there isn't with the sound device you have in the PC.
Some media players, such as the Windows Media Player have built in EQ options, but they are only applicable when you are using the media player.
Doing a google search, this is a common complaint with Win 7. My suggestion is to get some different speakers that have a tone control on them. Those Bose speakers have the Bose name but are not the best speakers Dell sold with new PC's. Get a standard "Analog" 2.1 speaker system and connect them to the GREEN speaker jack on the rear of the PC, not a USB connected speaker set. You can get PC speakers at many places, you don't need "Dell" speakers.

Thanks for your reply. I found a great music player called MusicBee which has a built-in equalizer. The Creative software that comes with my soundcard has great controls but they only apply to the outputs from the card e.g. optical out, not USB. I bought the Bose Companion 5 after the fact, not from Dell and the sound quality is good but you may be right, I would have much more flexibility with the Creative controls if I used a 2.1 speaker system connected to the card. I thought I would watch movies on the PC but have found that's not the case, I'm too distracted by work, Facebook and Twitter ;-)

The NICE Cyber Education Map is an interactive map that highlights schools, teachers, companies and agencies supporting Cyber Education in America. The Map performs four main functions:
5th Annual NICE Conference (held on Nov. 5-6, 2014) Presentations NOW ONLINE
Ready to Work
The White House recently announced its Ready to Work program to equip our workers with the skills to compete in a 21st –century economy. As part of this NICE, which is designed to improve cybersecurity education from K-12 to postgraduate schools in the United States, is taking new actions to expand the number of individuals who are prepared for in-demand cybersecurity jobs. NICE aims to expand pathways to cyber skills and jobs by developing an interactive US map that shows where cybersecurity job openings exist while identifying for applicants the skills the job requires and the training programs available to applicants seeking each job. NICE will also expand its active engagement with employers, academic institutions, and industry to promote cybersecurity education and training programs and opportunities at colleges and universities (particularly community colleges), technical schools, and accredited two-year proprietary schools.
Report on Education Technology - Skills & Jobs
On September 29, 2014, PCAST released a letter report to the President on Information Technology for Targeting Job-Skills Training and Matching Talent to Jobs.
NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework
The National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) developed the National Cybersecurity Workforce Framework (the Workforce Framework) to define the cybersecurity workforce and provide a common taxonomy and lexicon by which to classify and categorize workers.
The Workforce Framework lists and defines 32 specialty areas of cybersecurity work and provides a description of each. Each of the types of work is placed into one of seven overall categories. The Workforce Framework also identifies common tasks and knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSA's) associated with each specialty area. The Workforce Framework will be used as guidance to the federal government, will be made available to the private, public, and academic sectors for describing cybersecurity work and workforces, and related education, training, and professional development.
A new DRAFT National Cybersecurity Workforce Framework is now available on the DHS NICCS site.
The Workforce Framework is the output of a collaboration of more than 20 Federal departments and agencies and numerous national organizations from within academia and general industry.
National Initiative for Cybersecurity Careers and Studies (NICCS) - DHS has launched the NICCS portal. The portal offers the ability to explore cybersecurity career paths, explore degree programs and internship opportunities, learn about competitions, and find general information about cybersecurity education, training, and awareness.

Witnesses to the attack--still being muzzled by the Obama administration--anonymously told Fox News: "It was a coordinated attack. It is completely false to say anything else. ... It is completely a lie." An unnamed special operator added: Guys were coming into the compound, moving left, moving right...and using IMT (individual movement techniques). ... That's not a spontaneous attack. One guy was shooting, one guy was running. There are guys watching the gates. ... The bosses on the ground were pointing, commanding and coordinating--that is a direct action planned attack. The "community of operators" in Libya both during the attack "and since includes CIA, FBI, U.S. Military, U.S. State Departments and contractors working for the United States in a number of capacities." Intelligence personnel then and now recognize Al Qaeda as "a significant threat in Libya." And while various reports show militia leader Ahmad Abu Khattallah was "responsible for the actions at the actual consulate and was essentially the ground force commander that night," sources say his terrorist connections have been ignored or downplayed. As one source said: "There is direct evidence linking [Khattallah] before the attack and after the attack to terrorist groups." Follow AWR Hawkins on Twitter @AWRHawkins

vBulletin denies busting downloads in paid-up protester ban
Bob Brisco, a new low
Well here is a good one, it appears that team vb.com has stooped to a new low. Brandon Sheley whom runs a site that is built around vbulletin, received a dmca complaint today for sharing Bob Brisco's public blog "vision for vbulletin" on his site. I am having trouble believing how unprofessional this entire thing is getting. Sending out a DMCA complaint because someone posted what you said word for word, is bullcrap. Brandon has done allot to help with the growth of the vbulletin community, and is now threatened by the company he faithfully seemed to believe in. Is it really legal to even file a DMCA complaint for coping and pasting something that is public on the internet?
Brisco's Recent Blog
I have read the blog and i feel it was a little late at this point. The unhappy customers have been banned and have no way to communicate with Brisco. Steve Machol, probably under Ray Morgans guidance, banned anyone that was unhappy and objecting to what was going on. After doing so, Mr. Brisco can stop by, post a blog and everyone that comments to the blog, is happy and content. 100% of the comments to Mr. Brisco's blog, are all happy kiss ass statements. Not one comment is available asking real questions of Mr. Brisco and his current staff's actions. It is hard to believe that with all of the knowledge and skill Mr. Brisco has, he has been fooled by a licensed eye examiner.
Mr. Brisco, if you ever come across this post, please please take a few minutes and look and see how many customers steve machol has banned. I think you will be shocked if you see his heavy handed tactics. He infracts people whom object and you cannot contact him after he infracts you because he keeps his pm system shut off. If you try to ask him in public, he gives you another infraction. Then he turns around and goes on a banning frenzy. These types of tactics shouldn't be allowed to happen when you truly have unhappy loyal customers trying to ask questions, only to be shutdown my Steve Machol. Maybe give him a 30 day vacation to cool off and let him rethink how he is acting.
vbulletin is lying
I was banned for voicing my concerns. I did so in a licensed customer feedback section and i was banned for life by Steve Machol. No one from vbulletin.com would answer our questions about why they are doing what they are doing, and if you would ask, you were banned. I wish vbulletin.com managers, such as ray morgan, would come here and tell us we weren't banned. Just stating that we violated forum rules isn't an answer, what rule did we violate other then trying to get you guys to tell the truth.
Forum king vBulletin muzzles paid-up protesters
Information prerelease
To the register, here is the information that was leaked prior to any official announcements: http://www.brent-wilson.com/archives/46/
You can see here that they new well in advance what the pricing structure was going to be: http://www.brent-wilson.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture8hpp.png
You can see here that Ray morgan and internet brands was prepared for the unhappy customers: http://www.brent-wilson.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture14cwy.png and ray is stating this word for word.
Vbulletin has pulled of one of the biggest scams in internet history and should be held accountable for such actions.
Stock holders
I wish current and potential stock holders of internet brands would read this article and the comments. Internet brands is very unfriendly and very unprofessional. All of the write ups i have come across recently, make internet brands sound like they are making money hand over fist and that they are hitting record sales. I would disagree with that statement, and i would figure they are actually loosing money hand over fist. I for one have been a loyal customer and will no longer purchase vbulletin software. I know i am only one person, but i hope the loss of my money helps internet brands stock price, tumble.
IB and Vbulletin lie
I am a paid customer who was banned for voicing my opinion. I have used this software for over 5 years, paid my renewal fee, then found out about vbulletins plans to take excessive amounts of money from people. I posted my thoughts in their licensed customers forums and during the postings, i was harassed and intimidated by Steve Machol and Wayne Luke. Any legitimate management team would fire employees for this type of treatment of a customer.
Vbulletin is playing a scam on people and trying to force people to purchase software they don't need. I paid for and own a license for vbulletin forum software and the blogs software. After team vbulletin decided to take more money out of our pockets, they took my blog license, added it to my vbulletin forum license and then tells me if i want to continue receiving blog updates, i need to purchase a suite, which includes software i don't need nor do i want. Parts of the software in the suite are failed software types that vbulletin had lost money on. So instead of accepting the losses, they are forcing people to take the software anyways and forcing them to pay for such crappy software. For my part in voicing my concerns, steve machol not only banned me from vbulletin, took my renewal fee, he suspended my license after doing so. I hope vbulletin and it's current owner file bankruptcy. Hopefully people will wake up and realize that what vbulletin is doing is blackmail and extortion.

Germany, 1992 (MIFF 1993, Documentaries)
Director: Werner Herzog
Lessons of Darkness marks a welcome return to form for German director Werner Herzog, once a regularly seen figure on the festival circuit, now noted mainly for his absence. After a decade of large-scale international features, Herzog returns to the intimate and distinctively personal style of his earliest works, to essay a recurring theme of his career — the instinctive self-destructiveness of humankind and modern civilisation's inexorable lurch towards chaos.
Within the conceit of a science-fiction movie, Herzog visits another planet in which life has been wiped out by cataclysmic fires and destruction. The setting is in fact the deserts of Kuwait in the aftermath of the Gulf War, where burning oilwells block the sun's rays and spewing fountains of crude oil have created solid-black craters on the sandy terrain. Viewed mainly from the air, the shots of 'this uninhabitable planet' are as awesome as they are grandiose, evoking both the poetry of sci-fi and the accuracy of a clinical observation.
Herzog eschews the standard conventions (and cliches) of journalistic enquiry, and limits himself to only two 'live' interviews - both of which poignantly suggest the inadequacy of language for the victims of terror. Punctuated by intertitles, sparse commentary (spoken by Herzog) and an occasionally portentous overlay of music (Mahler, Verdi and predictably, Wagner), the strength of Lessons of Darkness resides in its conception and seamless editing of image and music. Here, Herzog's existentialist quest finds the ideal subject, and execution.

Praise be to Allaah.
If she gets her menses after doing tawaaf, she should carry on with her 'Umrah and it does not matter, because for what comes after tawaaf it is not essential to be in a state of purity from having broken one's wudoo' or be free of menses. End quote.

Traction: If you build it they will come
Kevin Costner's film 'Field of Dreams' is responsible for more startup failures than any other Holywood film ever created. In this film Ray Kinsella, a farmer played by Kevin Costner has a vision (AKA great idea), digs up his crop of corn and builds a baseball field in the middle of nowhere on the promise that 'if he builds it, he will come'. Low and behold after some tense moments a famous dead baseball player turns up and eventually car loads of people turn up to watch baseball. So, it turns out, that if you build it, they will come.

Truth be told, I wandered in here on the advice of someone who had the misfortune of either eating or drinking (they wern't clear which) while reading a post I made. How in the world she deduced that I am a disaster in the kitchen, and could use all the help I can get from a post about using a bag of potato chips to check vital signs, I'll never know, but I am impressed at her deductive skills. Anyways, I shall close this rambling introduction with a question: Can anyone point me at information on the period uses of spices to preserve meat?

Baldwinsville We are rapidly approaching Election Day 2012. This is a very important election. We will elect a President, Vice President, Senate and House members along with state and county positions. Here in Lysander, we will be electing a councilor, highway superintendent and vote on a proposition to change the highway superintendent's position from elective to appointive. While all that is going on, we hear from the other candidate, chosen by the Lysander Republican Committee to run on the Republican line that he wants to "Restore Pride" to the Town of Lysander. We have certainly not lost our pride in Lysander.
Pride is defined as conceit, justifiable self-respect, haughty behavior and ostentatious behavior. The previous administration certainly displayed many of the definitions of pride. The other candidate wants to take the Town of Lysander back to the days of "pride." Let's remember those days of "pride". . .
Do we want to return to no bidding for professional services, which totaled $1,800,000 for the period Jan. 1, 2010 until Oct. 31, 2011? Do we want to return to the practices that are highlighted as areas of concern in the audit report prepared by the Division of Local Government and School Accountability for the 22-month period ending Oct. 31, 2011? Do we want to return to the practice of not maintaining the building, which houses the offices of Lysander Town Government? Do we want our town government to be run by only those people who serve on or are related to one of the 40 members of the Lysander Republican Committee?
Why would we elect the other candidate, who has lived in our town for less than three years, has received the endorsement of the Republican Party because he joined the Lysander Republican Committee this past spring, and wants to take the town backwards?
