On Tuesday we spoke to the owner of Cha Chas, then we heard from the owner of Rubys, and now its time for 81-year-old Paul Georgoulakos to plead his case. He operates Pauls Daughter, the beach grub stand that has been on the Coney Island boardwalk for 40 years (Georgoulakos himself has been a part of Coney since 1950, when he operated a milk stand near the train station).
On Wednesday, Pauls Daughter joined Facebook and has been posting photos from back in the day when it was known as Gregory & Pauls, and the Astroland Moon Rocket was perched on the roof of one of its three locations (the first location opened off the boardwalk almost 50 years ago). The above rendering of a revamped restaurant was submitted to Central Amusement International by Pauls daughter Tina, who inherited the stand last year. Of course, CAI wasnt impressed, and shell now have to surrender it.
I should get the respect due because I'm the oldest and the best operator, the elder Georgoulakos tells The Wall Street Journal. Change is good but in moderation. He tells ABC, Now they tell me you got two weeks. Pack, pack your belongings and go. And that's not right.
Just how shitty was Zamperla/CAIs eviction notice? Well, Amusing the Zillion has reprinted the letter in which the landlord acts like its doing the Coney vets a favor by even giving them two weeks. It's said business owners can be fined $2,500 each day they overstay their welcome. Meanwhile, the latest rumor has a coffee bar coming to the boardwalk, and the petition to save Rubys has grown over 2,000 signatures strong.
Also, its said that Zamperla is the front-runner to become the new operator of the Cyclone. Which really sucks, because now if you want to ride the Cyclone, youll have to think about whether you want to give your money to the people who killed that other Coney ritual a beer at Rubys.

Girl critical after falling from 7th-story window
Updated On: Apr 07 2013 09:09:12 AM EDT
A 5-year-old girl remains in critical condition Saturday after she fell out of her 7th-floor bedroom window, according to the Broward County Sheriff's Office.
The accident happened at the Bridgewater Place apartment complex in Oakland Park.
Investigators say two adults and two other children were inside at the time when the victim's 8-year-old brother went to check on his sister. That's when he found her walking along a window sill near her bunk bed. As she was walking back toward her bed, she fell into a window screen, tumbling seven stories to the ground.
The little girl was taken to Broward Medical Center.
Investigators say she landed on a patch of grass. They noted a palm tree, concrete sidewalk, and a fence just steps away, indicating how much worse the impact could have been.
The Department of Children and Families is investigating this incident.

Recently in men's basketball Category
Another Big Blue Madness is in the books.
Continuing the tradition of an event unique to Kentucky basketball, it was a night of fireworks, dancing, dunks and even a pop-star impersonation by Matthew Mitchell. But more than anything else, Big Blue Madness was a celebration of a new season, and the capacity crowd in Rupp Arena enjoyed every second.
Let's relive the top five moments from Big Blue Madness 2014.
5. "The story isn't over"
After UK Hoops had its introductions and on-court action and the 20-time national champion Kentucky cheerleading team turned in an impressive routine, it was the men's team's turn. Before any of the Wildcats made an in-person appearance, the team's new intro was shown on the two massive video boards installed on the baseline stage.
Aaron Harrison's prediction of "It's going to be a great story" from after a loss at South Carolina last season came over the speakers. The words came to define UK's magical run through the NCAA Tournament during which the Cats proved all their doubters wrong.
Harrison then came into view and walked toward the camera. Turning a phrase, the clutch sophomore shooting guard said exactly what UK fans wanted to hear: "Our story isn't over."
4. Drake introduces Coach Cal
After the Harrison twins were the final players to have their names called, there was one more introduction to be done before John Calipari appeared. Drawing possibly the loudest cheer in a night full of them, rapper Drake came on stage.
Lint roller in hand, Drake addressed his fellow UK fans and introduced Coach Cal.
"This is family to me," Drake said. "This is a real thing to me, you know, and tonight I want to introduce a man who is definitely one of the most important people in my life. Despite his busy schedule, he always takes the time to check in with me through the highs and the lows. He's the godfather for us that bleed blue."
Drake would then suit up in a practice uniform and go through the layup line with the team.
3. The basketball
Although Big Blue Madness has become more of a spectacle than anything else, it technically remains the first open practice opportunity for UK's two basketball teams. And so, there was actually some basketball played.
UK Hoops was without three players and needed a substitute male player to play a five-on-five scrimmage, but the Cats look poised to be among the nation's best yet again. Jennifer O'Neill was dynamic as a scorer, while McDonald's All-American Alyssa Rice seemed more than capable of playing immediately in the post.
On the men's side, the Cats were as competitive as you'd expect in both three-on-three and five-on-five scrimmages. Andrew Harrison played much like the point guard that led UK to the national championship game, while Tyler Ulis did nothing to hurt his fan-favorite status. There were thunderous dunks aplenty from the likes of Alex Poythress, Willie Cauley-Stein, Dakari Johnson, Marcus Lee, Karl-Anthony Towns and Trey Lyles, while Dominique Hawkins showed renewed confidence in his outside shot.
The final three minutes of the five-on-five scrimmage were particularly heated, as players on both sides turned up the intensity. White would close out a 42-36 win before Coach Cal closed the night.
"This is going to be a process," Calipari said. "We're trying things that have never been tried before, but this is a talented group of great young men representing you."
2. Mitchell one-ups himself ... again
Mitchell had exhausted nearly all his dancing options in recent years, culminating in routines in which he channeled MC Hammer, Britney Spears and James Brown. The only thing left for him to do, apparently, was sing.
Doing his own unique take on a few Bruno Mars hits, Mitchell serenaded the crowd in a way only he can. He likely won't be quitting his day job anytime soon, but the performance was impressive. See for yourself.
1. Cal drops the mic
Abandoning the state of the program address he delivered last year, Coach Cal cued the tape from his speech at Big Blue Madness 2009, his first as head coach. When the clip was over, Calipari was fittingly brief.
"Enough talking, let's ball," Calipari said, dropping the microphone and closing the book on the offseason.
Thousands of fans camped out waiting to claim their tickets for Big Blue Madness, and the wait for one of Kentucky basketball's signature events is finally almost over.
As the final hours tick away, fans aren't the only ones excited.
"You know it's crazy because I've been to Big Blue Madness twice so far and for two years you keep seeing yourself on the stage, but you're not up there yet," Karl-Anthony Towns said. "I'm just going to be really juiced up; I'm really happy to be up on that stage for the first time actually being introduced instead of just being a recruit."
It has been a tradition since 1982 for Madness to set the tone for the season. It gives all of the fans an opportunity to see the players have fun and show off their personalities, and this is a unique set of young men.
"I'm super excited because I've been waiting my turn to step on that stage and be able to dance and get everyone hyped," Towns said. "I'm just glad that tonight I will finally be introduced as a Kentucky Wildcat. I'm trying to get my moves together to do something special but I've never been no choreographer, but I'm trying."
Every year Big Blue Madness, which begins at 7 p.m. at Rupp Arena on Friday, is filled with surprises and a lot of dance moves put together by the players. The 2014 edition will be no different.
"I'm very excited, I still don't know what I'm going to do yet, but I'll probably go over some dance moves before I walk out there," Dakari Johnson said. "I told the freshmen if they are going to dance, then commit to it, because you don't want to go out there in front of all of the fans and suck. It's all about having a lot of fun and showing the fans a good time."
Most of the players want fans to be surprised for the dances they have prepared, while others are just excited to be in the moment and see all of the fans rooting them on.
"I think I might just freestyle," Marcus Lee said. "Some people just get into it like, ah, I'm not going to do anything. And then they see the lights and their like, alright, I've got to do something. So that's kind of what I saw happen with Dakari. I think he's going to prep a little more this year."
The players have been working extremely hard and growing as a team to make this an unforgettable season. For Willie Cauley-Stein, Madness takes on special meaning this year since he was unable to play on UK's Big Blue Bahamas tour.
"The season is here, and being hurt and being able to come back and see all of the fans is a good feeling," Cauley-Stein said. "Once you see all of the fans going crazy that's when you know it's time to get going again, and that's the most exciting part about having Big Blue Madness."
Among the 23,000-plus fans in attendance will be plenty of the players' family and friends, including a big group supporting the Harrison twins. That might draw a dance out of UK's normally reserved point guard.
"I hope everyone has a good time," Andrew Harrison said. "It's going to be a fun atmosphere and a lot of entertainment. I'm a simple guy but I may do a little something."
For fans unable to make it to Rupp Arena, Big Blue Madness can be seen live on ESPN3. Madness will also be featured as part of ESPNU's whip-around coverage and a one-hour replay of the two-hour event will air on the SEC Network at 11 p.m.
Which players will play together? Will regular-season opponents be as overwhelmed by UK's depth as its Big Blue Bahamas opponents? Will the Wildcats be able to stay together through the inevitable clutter that the season will bring?
For those inside Kentucky basketball's circle, as Coach Cal calls it, the feeling isn't all that different.
"It's just going to be interesting," Willie Cauley-Stein said. "It's going to be interesting to see how Cal pieces everything together and how -- once games start flowing -- how our intensity level's going to be once we start platooning."
Nearly two weeks into practicing full time, the intensity is there.
"The practices should be what they are, which is they're competitive," Calipari said. "There are no easy baskets. You're not getting layups."
As for the Cal piecing it together thing, there's a longer way to go on the eve of Big Blue Madness.
In the Bahamas, the Cats used two five-man units for four-minute stretches and deviated only in the case of blowouts and a couple close-and-late scenarios. Absent, however, were junior Willie Cauley-Stein and Trey Lyles, two of the more talented players on a roster full of them.
Cauley-Stein and Lyles, two months later, are back, giving Calipari two more options but also two more mouths to feed. The fact that they're both big men and they join an already crowded frontcourt featuring Karl-Anthony Towns, Dakari Johnson, Marcus Lee and Alex Poythress complicates matters even more.
Consequently, Coach Cal is doing some experimenting.
"I'm still not convinced of what the groups will look like," Calipari said. "Yesterday or two days ago I changed the group a little bit and I didn't like them. I went back. We may change some big guys and switch them on different teams to see what that looks like, because at the end of the day I'm coaching two teams."
UK's annual Media Day on Thursday was the first time Calipari put the job he's facing in those terms, but it makes sense.
Following the lead of his coaching mentors and the legendary John Wooden, Coach Cal has long espoused the notion that the best teams feature shorter rotations.
His track record backs that up.
On his three Final Four teams at UK, never have more than seven players averaged double-digit minutes. On the national title team, six players carried the load, with each playing at least 26.1 minutes per game.
Now set to try to achieve the same kind of success using a completely different style, Calipari is joking he needs another raise five months after signing a new contract.
"The best teams that I've coached, I've coached six guys, whether it's (UMass), Memphis or here," Calipari said. "Now that being said, I'm doing it twice now. In other words, I'm coaching these guys together, and I'm coaching two different teams I've asked to be paid twice. I'm not sure they'll do that, but if I've got to coach two teams, then I think it's fair -- a fair question anyway."
Calipari was struck by the idea for the platoon system when he learned Andrew and Aaron Harrison would both wait on the NBA Draft. Realizing he had a roster with 12 players who would likely start for almost any other team in the country, he had to devise a plan that would fit his players-first mantra.
Seeking to find a balance between playing so many guys and developing the kind of chemistry he believes is necessary to win at the highest level, he trotted out the platoons to great effect in the Bahamas. They worked, so they live on with less than a month before the Cats open the regular season against Grand Canyon on Nov. 14.
But as committed as he is to making a new system work, Calipari isn't chaining himself to his brainchild.
"This isn't communism, so if one group deserves to play a little bit more, they will," Calipari said. "It's not communism. If two guys separate themselves and need to get more minutes because you all look and say that kid is so good, he needs more minutes, it's not communism, they'll get more minutes."
To keep the socioeconomic analogy going, Calipari's players believe introducing some free-market concepts into the platoon system is a must.
"That's important because as a team we have to understand that if a guy's playing good he should be out there," Tyler Ulis said. "So if Andrew's in but it's my turn to rotate in, if he's playing good I should understand that he needs to be in the game at that point."
Calipari also opened the possibility of adjusting situationally.
"At the end of the game if they're fouling, it would probably be pretty smart to have five good foul shooters in," Calipari said. "And you won't believe this, I'll probably do that."
Short of those things, it's full steam ahead with the platoons. Calipari expects change as the season wears on, but for now the Cats are committed to doing whatever is asked of them.
"I think that everybody's ego is checked," Lyles said. "Everybody believes in each other and we're all happy for each other. Whatever Coach wants from us, I think that we're going to be able to do that."
Even more importantly, the players understand how the system can benefit them individually and the team as a whole.
"It won't be a problem because the outcome of the bigger picture of it," Cauley-Stein said. "The way that we can play with guys getting fewer minutes is going to make you look better, for one. And two, the intensity of the game is going to be crazy. When people watch us play and they see how fast everybody is and how quick we get the ball up the floor and how hard we play on defense, that sets the tone. People are going to look at that and just be amazed by that."
In spite of all that potential, Calipari is already hearing the "clutter" that will fly at his team all season on the recruiting trail. Over the noise, he also hears an opportunity calling him to prove the doubters wrong, have his watershed moment and do right by his players in an unprecedented way.
"Why would you go there?" Calipari said. "These guys aren't leaving. Here, oh, what if you only play 20 minutes? It's OK. It's less pressure. It's not on me. It's on us. I can be a great teammate. I can improve my skills, and they all got drafted and they all won, and then -- so it's an issue now if this works. I'm on a mission to make this work for each of these kids."
Could Kentucky win them all? Could the 2013-14 group become the first team since Indiana in 1976 to go undefeated? What would be the biggest challenge in UK's pursuit of perfection?
Silly Cats -- they never stood a chance.
Kentucky, as we all know now, would fold in the first half of last season under such overwhelming expectations. Supremely talented but characteristically naïve for young guys, the freshman-dominated team lost early and unexpectedly often during spots of last season.
Technically speaking, the Cats never fully embraced the idea of going 40-0, but they sure as heck didn't downplay the talk either.
In hindsight, the older, wiser players admitted at Thursday's Media Day that they drank the Kool-Aid.
"We focused on we've got to win the national championship instead of taking it one game at a time," Andrew Harrison said. "We overlooked some teams. We didn't focus on every practice, every drill and every possession at practice. We paid for it."
They're hell-bent on making sure history doesn't repeat itself this season.
One year since the 40-0 talk hit a tipping point at last season's Media Day, there was no talk of historic achievements, no tiptoeing around the possibility of perfection, not even a whisper from the head coach who has admitted that he would one day like to go 40-0 - just because, he says, people say it can't be done.
With a team that probably has a better shot than last year's group did of going undefeated because of the increase in depth, experience and talent, not a single player talked about 40-0 on Thursday other than to downright squash the talk.
"We're not going to get caught up in the 40-0 talk again like we did last year," Dakari Johnson said.
Said fellow sophomore Dominique Hawkins: "We're definitely not saying 40-0 because of last year, what happened. We just feel like we need to compete and play our best. Like Coach Cal said, we're going to take it one game at a time."
Ah, the old "one game at a time" talk. But perhaps there's actually substance in the old sports cliché with these Wildcats.
See, last season, as Hawkins explained, they got caught up in the big picture of the expectations. They heard the talk of the 40-0 and they enjoyed it. They wanted to make history and certainly had the talent to do so.
"Coming in freshman year, we probably thought it was going to be easier than we thought," Hawkins said.
The problem was, in looking so far down the road, they forgot all the pit-stops along the way. Before they knew it, they weren't even halfway down the road with a couple of flat tires and a leaky transmission.
Fortunately for UK, the engine was still running at season's end.
"I'd never been through starting five freshmen," Calipari said Thursday. "I don't know of many people (who have). So there were things that we went through that it took time."
The Cats say youth had every bit to do with buying into the hype last year.
"It's hard transitioning from high school where no one's really saying much about you or you have a bad days and it's just like, it's just a bad day, it doesn't really matter," sophomore Marcus Lee said. "But in college, you have a bad day, it's blown up. You hear it for three days. And then you have that from that game to the next game to try to change your mindset. It's just something you learn by doing it."
Calipari calls it the process, something he swears by doing this year despite the allure of the final product.
"You cannot skip steps," he said Thursday.
Keep in mind, less than two hours earlier his team had just received the official stamp of preseason hype when it was voted the No. 1 team in the first USA Today Coaches' Poll of the year.
And yet Calipari was more interested in talking about losses this time around than how his team will avoid them.
"Is this going to be easy? No," he said. "How about this? Will there be bumps in the road? Oh yeah. We probably, in all likelihood, are going to lose a couple games. ... I have to be patient, too, and understand that's going to be part of the process."
The process stuff is nothing new from Calipari, but it fell on deaf (and freshman) ears last season.
"As players, we're young and we don't really understand sometimes the stuff that he's trying to tell us to get in our minds," Hawkins said. "When he said it over and over, that's what helped us realize that we needed to do that."
Only then, when the season was at its last stop, did the players fully understand what their head coach was talking about. Fortunately for them, it wasn't too late.
"Now we realize that since we played last year that every game is going to be someone's Super Bowl when they play against us," Hawkins said.
The difference this year is the Cats now know that from the outset.
"We've learned not to think about the season as a whole and just to think game by game and day by day, just to get better," Lee said. "We're more prepared because we're a year older, college wise, and we kind of know what to expect. We know how to get through tough times better. It's easier to deal with it ... when half the team already knows how to deal with it."
The only expectations this Kentucky group is concerned with are its own.
"The only expectations I have, again, making this work for all these kids," Calipari said. "If we do that, they'll drag this where it's supposed to go."

Ray grad Doug Nichols named head coach at Henderson State
Nichols graduated from Ray in 2001
CORPUS CHRISTI - Ray High School graduate Doug Nichols landed his first college basketball head coaching job when he was named the head coach at Division II Henderson State in Arkadelphia, Ark.
Nichols grew up in Corpus Christi and played basketball at Ray where he was part of the 2001 Texans team that made it to the Region IV-5A semifinals.
The 28-year-old Nichols graduated from Texas A&M and got his first job as an assistant for basketball operations with the Aggies in 2006. He later spent two seasons as a graduate assistant at Stephen F. Austin, a year as an assistant at Angelina College and another year as an assistant back at Stephen F. Austin.

BRUSSELS (AP) -- Not all sweet red wine blended with fruits may claim to be genuine sangria.
The European Parliament on Tuesday passed legislation requiring tougher geographical labeling rules to establish that true sangria comes from Spain or Portugal.
In the future, aromatized wines produced elsewhere will have to clearly state their country of origin on the labels, marking them, for example, as German or Swedish sangria.
Sangria is usually consumed chilled as a popular summer drink. It typically contains red wine, sugar, brandy, orange, peach and other chopped fruit plus slightly sweetened seltzer water.
European lawmakers in Strasbourg passed the motion -- which also protects the Vermouth and Gluehwein aromatized wines -- in a 609-72 plenary vote with four abstentions.
The legislation still needs a rubber stamp approval from EU governments.

Windows sees MP3 tags, but no audio players do
A very strange thing:
I have a pretty large MP3 collection I've mostly ripped from my CD's. I used iTunes to rip them and they came with the proper ID3 information attached. Worked beautifully with pretty much everything and anything.
I recently did some reorganizing of my file system and I moved all of my music files to another internal drive. And suddenly no music player recognizes the appropriate information. However, when I browse the files in Windows Explorer, the tags show up just fine and I can organize my files according to them.
What could be the reason for such strange behaviour? And more importantly: is there a good way to solve this?

Use a reliable, popular, widely regarded and easy-to-use free 3rd-party tag utility such as MP3Tag, to examine your MP3 files. Using Windows components, players, Explorer, etc., can often mislead you or hide what's really going on. Same with other all-in-one products (e.g. Media Monkey) which are powerful, but "intrusive" and somewhat mystical. You get much more useful and manually controlled results using specific 3rd-party tools such as MP3Tag.
You will see whether or not there truly are valid tags inside of your MP3 files. If not, you can easily manually edit/repair them with MP3Tag... although this doesn't explain where they might have disappeared to, or were actually stored when you built the MP3 files in the first place.
I'm not familiar with iTunes (don't use it, never have) so I don't know what it might have done. I build my own MP3 and FLAC files from my own CDs using Audiograbber and LAME, or Audiograbber and FLAC-Frontend. Tags are 100% properly imbedded in all files by either process.

I suspect that itunes has tagged them with its own tag or used its own codec in much the same way that when you open itunes it will reasign all your mp3 files to files it will recognise, i.e aac, its clever like that

There are many variations of the ID3 tag and a single mp3 can have multiple TAG versions applied to it, personally I think winamp does a stellar job of showing you this information, however it's autotagger has previously made some errors and I ended up with wrongly identified tracks being updated in my library. Although 99 percent of the thousands of files I threw at it came up perfectly.
razy, iTunes will handle mp3's normally, unless you edited or imported the info through the iTunes interface in which case it will default to putting this data in the iTunes version of the ID3 tag and create one if it dosn't already have one. Of course for formats iTunes isn't licensed to play such as .wma's you are quite right it will convert them.
MP3 Tag is a great recommendation to fix your problem, I just thought I'd let you know why it might have happened.
(when you say no music player will read the tags are you excluding itunes?)

This issue is now solved. Thanks to everybody for chipping in.

What did the tags look like when you investigated? Did you have to manually correct things? MP3Tag? Winamp? What?
(don't leave us curious cats in the dark)

Well, unfortunately the solution wasn't very creative or helpful to the general public. MP3Tag diagnosed the problem and indicated that the tags were simply corrupted for some reason. I tried getting suggestions from there to see if I can bring them back to health, but unfortunately their suggestion ended up wiping out the little tag information I had.
In the end, I went to my external backup drive, copied and reimported everything and the tags were fine on those files. It's probably what I should've done to begin with, but since it's pretty cumbersome to move around large batches of files, I wanted to find if a more streamlined (read: nerdy) solution was possible.

Topinabee Development Association
The Mission of the Topinabee Development Association is to preserve and enhance the unique historical character and charm of Topinabee while promoting future growth and development of its business district.
The Mission of the Topinabee Development Association is to preserve and enhance the unique historical character and charm of Topinabee while promoting future growth and development of its business district.
Modern history of the area began when settlers moved to the area in the 1880′s with the extension of the railroad to what is now Mackinaw City. Horace Pike developed a Hotel along the banks of Mullet Lake adjacent to the railroad tracks and people began to build homes in the area. Pike wanted to give the area a unique name and he named the area after an Indian Chief-Topinabee. The area continued to grow around the Lake with the hotel the center of activity. (more…)
Winter is a great time to be UP NORTH in Michigan. The scenery is great and there are many activities to enjoy-snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, ice fishing! We have it all in Topinabee. We're the village right on Mullett Lake and we're proud of it.
Mullett Lake is legendary for boaters around the Inland Waterway and Topinabee is the only town around its shoreline. Indian River and the sweet waters of Burt Lake are just around the corner. Our game fishing is fabulous, touted by competitive bass fisherman as the the best in the north country, and we're famous to walleye seekers in the Great Up North. Trails for biking, snowmobiling and ORVing are everywhere. (more…)
We have unique shops and restaurants in Topinabee.
You'll love the famous Breakers Bar and Grill right on the lake, our acclaimed Noka Cafe, and the Topinabee Market and Deli. Topinabee features public access to Mullett Lake, and a warm welcome to all.
Topinabee invites you to join us along the shores of Mullett Lake in northern Michigan where the good life is always in season. We enjoy a wonderful small town atmosphere with shops, restaurants, and a local market and deli. But it's the awesome natural beauty all around that is the real reason we live here in our part of the Great Up North. Come and visit us in Topinabee and you and your family will see what we mean!
The Friends of the Topinabee Library held a "trunk or treat" party for area children on Halloween night from 5:00-7:00. Approximately 12 cars were handing out candy along with the library Over 100 "kids" passed through lineup of cars and the library. What a great success!

The Mullett Township Board recently hired Hobie Kirsch of Hobie's Home Solutions to handle the maintenance work for the township. Hobie is a native of the area-raised and attended school in Cheboygan and moved to Topinabee when he was 16. He spent his summers working at Hobart Marine and enjoyed being on the water. After high school he joined the Navy and spent four years on submarine patrol. He said that was an exciting time and he has been around the world and under the polar ice cap as well. He served in the reserve and did his "time" by spending the summers with the Navy. Hobie participated in the "Desert Shield" conflict during his time in the reserves. He left the service and attended Lake Superior University and graduated with a degree in Political Science. He worked at the Mitchell Street Pub as a bartender for 15 years before moving back to Topinabee. He then went to work tending Bar at Hoppies and continues to do so on a part time basis. In May he started his own company-Home Solutions- and is busy doing a wide variety of home improvement projects in the area. He is married to his wife Tammy and when he is not working at one of his three jobs he enjoys, boating, fishing and mushrooming. Welcome to Mullett Township Hobie!
Sturgeon for Tomorrow in cooperation with the Mullett Preservation Society planted fish in Mullett Lake on August 23rd. This is part of the program to preserve, protect and expand sturgeon in Northern Michigan Lakes. Sturgeon raises the fish at their hatchery near Black Lake for planting. Tours are available at the hatchery and are a very educational experience. Over 8000 sturgeon have been planted in Mullett Lake since 2003 through the Sturgeons for Tomorrow program with support from MAPS. Walleye plantings since 1999 have totaled more than 1,000,000,000. The Walleye program is supported by the DNR, tribes and MAPS.
The annual Chicken BBQ and corn roast was held on August 17 at the Topinabee park pavilion. The BBQ sold over 500 meals again this year.
Phil Welch, a Topinabee resident and owner of Michigan Lakes Products, solved a long-time problem at the Topinabee Park. Seagulls and ducks love to use the swim dock as their restroom! Walking on the dock can be a hazard for your feet!. Phil worked with his company to come up with a solution to the problem. Finding a solution, Michigan Lake Products donated the material to make the swim dock doo doo free! Thanks to Mr. Welch and Michigan Lake Products. An article in the Cheboygan Tribune about this product can be found at the bottom of this page.

A generous donation made by Indian River-based Michigan Lake Products, MLP, has made conditions more pleasant for swimmers and boaters using Topinabee's new beachfront park on Mullett Lake.
No longer will users have to worry about stepping around or over the mess seagulls make each summer on the docks.
After the new park was finished last year, patronage greatly increased, according to a news release from Tom O'Hare, a Topinabee resident and member of the Topinabee Development Association.
Although patrons were able to enjoy the new sand-filled beach, playground equipment, information kiosks, park benches, barbecues, flowing fountain and sloping pathways, one need that wasn't addressed was the continued challenge associated with Mullett Lake's seagull population that was also fond of using the docks when swimmers and boaters were not present.
After a couple of cool or rainy days when the beach wasn't in use, once the sun came out, young children and their parents would often be faced with the challenge of how to navigate to the other end of a dock without stepping in what one young child described as "that smelly goop."
When Phil Welch of Michigan Lake Products, MLP, learned of the dilemma, after one of his own grandchildren visited the new park, he and his staff put their heads together to see if they could figure out a solution to the problem.
Having heard that seagulls will avoid things they can hear but not see, Welch and his team engineered a design modification for the beachfront docks whereby regular fishing wire was suspended from poles installed along the dock high above the deck surface. Fish line was strung from pole to pole, at the top of each pole, along the entire length of the dock, which vibrates when the breeze hits it.
"In this manner seagulls will be deterred from 'dropping' in on the park docks," quipped Welch.
In addition to solving the seagull problem, MLP also installed a new modular ramp from the end of the sidewalk to the water's edge, allowing individuals with disabilities direct access to the lake through an otherwise sandy beach area.
Welch said this is a new product engineered by MLP especially for application in soft sand.
Mary Anne Gale, Mullett Township supervisor Mary Anne Gale thanked MLP for stepping forward and for its generosity.
"As a parent, I know how bad the situation has been at times on the swim docks. I'm sure all the children and families who make use of this new park will be most appreciative of what MLP has done on behalf of the community,"

Richard Lee School building one of the worst: Nick Gibb
A school building in Coventry has been described by the schools minister as "one of the worst" he has ever seen.
Nick Gibb visited Richard Lee Primary School, Wyken, which is one of seven in the city waiting to hear if they are to receive government funding for repairs.
Up to £3bn is available to rebuild dilapidated properties in England under the Priority School Building Programme.
Mr Gibb would not be drawn on whether Richard Lee would be among those selected in the first phase in May.
After touring the school with head teacher Nicola Harwood and local Labour MP Bob Ainsworth, Mr Gibb said it was "clear the school is in a very bad condition".'Most in need'
He said: "It is very bad. I saw some damp, the windows are in a bad state, the ceilings are leaking.
It's not clear how many schools across the country have applied for this scheme (the Priority Schools Building Programme) but when asked, the minister revealed "more have applied than there is available capital". It's a PFI a (private finance initiative), which means schools or local authorities would be signed up to a 25-year repayment contract if successful.
Last year the Coalition government asked for applications, saying a decision would be announced during December 2011, but this was delayed. At the beginning of the year the Education Secretary Michael Gove said there'd be an announcement in February, but on his visit to Richard Lee Primary the Schools Minister Nick Gibb said it would now be towards the end of May (2012).
Richard Lee Primary is 60 years old, parts of the ceiling have caved in twice, there are cracks snaking through the dining room floor and six new leaks have appeared in the roof in the last week. Headteacher Nicola Harwood said she's "fed-up" at the situation.
"There's no question the school is in a very bad condition but the decision about how we allocate taxpayers' money to the Priority Schools Building Programme is taken in a very scientific and objective way based on an assessment of all the schools that have applied."
The school was not eligible for funding under Labour's Building Schools for the Future programme as it was solely for secondary schools.
Mr Ainsworth said: "Coventry now has only enough money to build one half of one primary school and that's for the entire city.
"I can only hope we've done our level best to give Richard Lee the maximum opportunity to be one of those schools."
Parents and pupils at the school delivered a petition containing about 3,000 signatures to Downing Street last July.

The college uses a letter grading system. A denotes superior performance, B denotes above average, C denotes average, D denotes below average, and F denotes failure of the course.
Plus and minus designate gradations of performance between letter grades. Letter grades and their numerical equivalents are as follows.
- A–plus: 4.33
- A (superior): 4.00
- A–minus: 3.67
- B–plus: 3.33
- B (above average): 3.00
- B–minus: 2.67
- C–plus: 2.33
- C (average): 2.00
- C–minus: 1.67
- D–plus: 1.33
- D (below average): 1.00
- D–minus: 0.67
- F (failing): 0
This grading system is used for all students in both undergraduate and graduate engineering courses. Grades of D-minus are passing grades; that is, courses completed with grades of D-minus or higher count toward collegiate requirements, with the exception of MATH:1550 Engineering Mathematics I: Single Variable Calculus and MATH:1560 Engineering Mathematics II: Multivariable Calculus, which have a minimum grade requirement of C-minus or higher. Grades of A-plus have a value of 4.33 in calculating grade-point averages, but averages displayed in University records are truncated so that they do not exceed 4.00.

I love this fabric softener! It adds just enough softness, eliminates static, & adds a freshness to the clothes, not an overwhelming scent. I love that it is NOT derived from animals. It does not leave sticky residue on my clothes or on the dispenser in my washing machine. Great price too!
Great smell, soft clothes!

I love the smell! I only need one capful to make my clothes soft and good smelling. Great product, and all natural. I'd recommend it to anyone trying to come off of Bounty or other chemical fabric softeners.

The conversation came up with Rex Smith, editor of the Times Union, and the other panelists about the decision of the paper to use the racial slur 'spook' in the newspaper. The story involved the now-former Albany police chief […] [Read More]

Collinsville, IL
Collinsville is one of the fastest growing communities in the area, both in retail and in real estate. In this retail development boom, Collinsville Crossing was created. Check out the many small shops and large retail chains that this strip mall holds, including big box stores like Walmart, Home Depot. For a more small town shopping feel, head down to the downtown Collinsville Main Street area, which is the center of Collinsville's shopping district. Here you will find many small shops and restaurants, including a locally-owned pharmacy from a bygone era and a popular sandwich shop called just that, The Sandwich Shop.
Located on the remains of an ancient Native American city near Collinsville, Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site was one of the first eight UNESCO World Heritage Sites, making one of only 21 in the country. The ancient city was one of the largest within the Mississippian culture, which was settled around 600 CE. This city contained at least 120 mounds, 80 of which still stand. The largest mound was Monk's Mound, which rose over 100 feet in the air. There were also several woodhenges on site that were later reconstructed after the park's creation.
Began in 1987, the International Horseradish Festival in Collinsville celebrates just that, the horseradish. Each year in early locals head on out for the fun, entertainment, food, and music offered at this annual event. Activities for both children and adults are featured, including a fishing derby, a root derby, and numerous contests and games. A craft village is located on site, where you can purchase homemade crafts from local merchants. Though many guests come out to see the local bands, most stay for the food and fun, as well as to pick up some of the highest quality horseradish available in the world.

Best buffet in Las Vegas
- s
- Stan Michaels Sep 22, 2005 12:35 AM
Going to Las Vegas for first time in many years. Any suggestions for a really good buffet?
Best seafood buffet in Vega,s! Easy answer, from a local! Check out the Fremont Hotel on Fremont street, downtown, off the strip. Costs only about $18.00, sports Crab Legs, Oysters, Clams, Mussels, and even Lobster Claws most of the time. Call ahead on that, but everytime I went they had them, about, 5 - 6 times! They have a full bar with italian specialties, desserts, all kinds of things. I was never unhappy, no need to pay $32.00 at Bellagio or Rio for the same thing. This is definately an insiders tip!
re: potbelliedkiln
is this the paradise buffet for $15.99 offered on tuesdays, fridays, and saturdays?
am thinking about checking it out this weekend...how's the quality of the seafood?
re: brekkie_fan
Wynn used to be good (I went when it recently opened) -- it went WAY downhill upon a revisit a month and a half ago. It's not awful bad (or even bad at all) but definitely overprice for what it is now. :(
I'd definitely recommend checking out downtown casinos for good, cheap eats. But yea, check the Southwest Boards (surprised LV doesn't get their own), they're sure to have much more insider tips about the ins and outs of chow there ;)
re: AquaW
I was at the Wynn lunch buffet a few weeks ago. I'll agree that it was much better when it first opened. The selections were better and there were more interesting items. Still way ahead of the Bellagio though, especially when it comes to service. When you order hot tea, the hot water comes out and the teabag follows 10 minutes later. Plates aren't cleared. Drinks aren't refilled.
Hate to admit this but I worked at the Wynn last year and I was very disappointed. I though it was overpriced for what you got.
We really enjoyed the breakfast buffet in Paris. The atmosphere, the food, and the service were all excellent. We aren't buffet people, and we ate there twice during our stay. If you go, make sure that you try the crepes.
We aren't normally buffet people either but we hit the Paris breakfast buffet twice during our last trip up to Las Vegas....the price was $12 and we figured if we sat down and ordered of a menu somewhere else(on the strip) we'd be paying that much anyhow. We were pleasantly surprised...made to order omelets, made to order crepes, several different stations offering various meats, pancakes, waffles, fruits, pastries, etc, fresh juice. We didn't stuff ourselves either visit,one morning splitting an omelette, having some sausage with it, some potatoes and toast - with coffee and juice. Again, just based on the value it's not to be missed.
We did the Aladdin buffet for dinner a couple years ago just to check it out and see what a Las Vegas buffet was all about. Was supposedly rated very good....at the time $28 each. Fresh crab legs and the mediterranean station stand out in my mind as things we enjoyed but for the most part we wished we'd spent our money elsewhere and ordered off a menu(but again, normally we aren't buffet folks and this particular experience reinforced the reasons why)
re: Rondo
Back from Vegas? Did you try the buffet at Fremont? I went in October, last minute trip to Vegas. My whole family went together, 20 of us! Everyone seemed satisfied, but they didn't have the lobster claws that day. They have them on and off, you can call that day to see if they will have them. That's the first time I've been though out of may 8 times they didn't have them, guess I was just luckly all those times. But, I still enjoyed it, and the price, who can complain!
Bellagio does a very nice buffet and if I to pick just one buffet to try on a trip to Vegas, it'd definitely be Paris Breakfast Buffet. The made to order crepes are great, their coffee is decent and it's a nice atmosphere, not like a big cattle drive.
I would recommend the Bellagio buffet although you should go on a weekday. I've found that the price difference between weekday dinner and weekend dinner is too great for the difference in food. Whatever you do, do NOT go to the Aladdin buffet. It used to be a good buffet but they have moved it to a new location and the quality and selection have gone seriously downhill.
We're totally not into buffets - not "mass quantity" type of eaters but of course, when in LV do as others do, right?
So we decided to give one a whirl and chose the Paris for a late lunch. We were surprised to find that it was not as offensive as we expected, in fact, it was pretty good.
We especially enjoyed the made-to-order crepe station, as others have mentioned. If you bypass the more mundane dishes (i.e.; just because you're in "France" don't expect any great cheese choices) and focus on the more unusual, this can be a decent choice. The line was not awful, service inside was efficient and it appeared pretty clean and dishes were always full. Plus, it did try and recreate being in a cafe in some sense, if you could ignore all the hot chafing dishes. All in all, not a bad choice.
re: sivyaleah
The problem with buffets for me is that the ones worth going to have had their prices jacked up so much that I'm thinking that if I'm paying $35 for a buffet, I could pay a few dollars more and go to the Circus-Circus steakhouse, Seablue, or any number of places. If buffet is what you want, then go all the way and go to the Wynn or Bellagio. How often are you in Vegas? Pay the extra...since you said you like lots of different foods, you'll get more and better at one of the top buffets.
re: sivyaleah
Paris at breakfast is the grandaddy of all breakfast buffets. You'll be full all day, by far the best quality imho.
re: elrushbo
I just checked bellagio and wynn buffet prices and have definitely gone up since my last visit. Bellagio's weekday dinner is 27.95 and weekend dinner is 35.96. Wynn's weekday dinner is 33.95 and weekend dinner is 37.95?! Do you guys know if the menu changes at all on the weekend for these places? and if so what. I remember wynn's buffet being very limited on selection compared to bellagio but the quality was excellent.
re: olivexjina
I did not see a separate "gourmet dinner" option at the Wynn for the weekends. My guess is that people are willing to pay more on the weekends.
Definitely the Bellagio buffet. Enormous selection and good quality, including good quality Chilean seabass steaks that melts in your mouth served recently. As mentioned previously, go on a weekday because there is no difference in the menu but unlike the price which is approximately $26? instead of $34?
We tried Aladdin just recently as well. I don't know how it was before but the the restaurant was relocated to the second floor to a temporary location where the cafe was previously. It was very dark and food selection and quality was just average for a buffet, except crab legs and shrimp cocktail. The size of the shrimps was noticeably smaller than Bellagio, for example.
re: LizKait
That's a shame about the Aladdin, because it used to be a pretty impressive spread.
I'd also recommend Caesars for Sunday brunch. It was only about $18 last time I was there, and includes champagne. It's not Dom, but it's still a nice touch.
re: ajs228
In all fairness, try holding a buffet in a temporary location and you'll see why where is a decline in quality. I would suggest that you wait until they open teh new facility before trying it.
re: ajs228
The Aladdin buffet is back in its original location after a remodel and, according to reports from the alt.vacation.las-vegas newsgroup, it's back to its usual high standards. When we lived in LV, we went to the Aladdin when we wanted a very nice buffet that didn't overdo the butter, as Bellagio does.
Having lived in Las Vegas for almost 2 years and a frequent returner (went last month, and leave this Wednesday to go back, will be there all of January!) I guess I just think differently. Having worked at Wynn, I'm not flabergasted by the big casinos and new casinos, and don't want to pay more money for new chairs to sit in. Just want to pay for good food and it really be worth the money. If you want to have dinner at Bellagio or Wynn then pay the high prices for Alex or one of the ones at Bellagio and get it over with. If you want a buffet then go to one that has good food and reasonable prices. Like somebody else said paying for a buffet for $37.00 is pointless. You can't eat that much food, well I can't, and the selection is really average, and the food is made in mass quantities resulting in average food. I still suggest the Fremont at $17 bucks for a seafood buffet that absolutely has everything, pastas, mexican, italian, and creole, and the seafood on the half shell. If you call ahead that day, they may have lobster claws out too! And, you even have enough money left over to eat there another night!! LOL! Let me put it this way: I ate at Fremont about 8 or so times and will go back. I ate at Wynn's buffet once and will never go back. Get the message?
We did the Bellagio buffet for lunch last weekend. Given the hype, we were not impressed. Selection was nice, overall quality was OK, but I was expecting to be knocked out and I wasn't.

Controversial ads to air despite content
Randall Terry, who is running for U.S. Congress in Florida against Alcee Hastings, is putting an ad on television that may make some people sick to their stomach.
Terry is on the ballot in seven states for different races and even on one as a presidential candidate.
He is a well known anti-abortion activist, reported Local 10 Senior Political Reporter Michael Putney. Last year during the Super Bowl, he tried placing ads showing aborted fetuses during the game but was rejected.
Terry has purchased $250,000 worth of ad time in Florida and six other states. The ads -- despite their content -- must air.
The latest ad accuses actor Samuel L. Jackson of carrying water for racists. It includes images of aborted fetuses and burning crosses.
In a Skype interview with Local 10, Terry made no apologies for the ads.
"We always get reactions from these videos. That's why we air them," said Terry. "One is to challenge African-Americans to rethink their Planned Parenthood. They're obviously a racist, black genocide organization."
Terry said he doesn't worry about children who might see the ads.
"Most kids, before they leave elementary school, have seen a 1,000 murders on television. They've seen horrible images on television," said Terry.
So why will you see the ads on TV?
The FCC has strict rules that govern political advertising. Stations cannot refuse or censor advertising from qualified federal candidates.
A disclaimer will air before the ads on Local 10.

Manchester City will look to compound Arsene Wenger's woes when they visit the Emirates stadium on Saturday, knowing a win would take them closer to the Premier League title and inflict a potentially fatal blow to Arsenal's chances, according to Reuters.
Wenger's side have capitulated in recent weeks and a win for Manuel Pellegrini's team in London would almost certainly leave the battle for the Premier League crown as a three-way race between City, Liverpool and Chelsea.
Arsenal, humiliated 6-0 at leaders Chelsea and held to a 2-2 home draw by Swansea City after conceding a last-minute equaliser on Tuesday, would have hoped for an easier match to revive their ailing title bid.
City lie third with 66 points, three behind Chelsea but with two games in hand, and they will look to build on their impressive 3-0 win at bitter local rivals Manchester United on Tuesday.
Jose Mourinho's Chelsea travel to struggling Crystal Palace and second-placed Liverpool, only a point off the top on 68 points, host Tottenham Hotspur.
It is 10 years since Arsenal last won the league and they approach the match on Saturday looking not only to keep their slim title hopes alive but to cement a place in the top four and qualify for next season's Champions League.
Fifth-placed Everton are breathing down their necks, six points adrift of Wenger's men but with a game in hand and a trip to bottom club Fulham on Sunday presents the chance to move a step closer to the top four.
Wenger endured a torrid time in his 1 000th match in charge of Arsenal at Stamford Bridge and anticipates another tough match against City.
"Manchester City had a good result tonight (against United), they look a bit unstoppable and are favourites because they still have two games in hand," Wenger said.
"Them and Chelsea are the favourites for the title. We don't have too much room to come back into it."
City beat Arsenal 6-3 at home this season but captain Vincent Kompany said the trip to the Emirates Stadium was a potential stumbling block.
"It's just one little step. The other teams are still very good," the Belgium defender told reporters.
"With the game against Arsenal, obviously it's good in a way, because you don't have to make a big effort to get the lads focused again."

India's Saina Nehwal stormed into the quarterfinals of the World Badminton Championships, beating Russia's Ella Diehl in straight games here on Thursday.
The second-seeded Indian took just 40 minutes to tame 13th seed Diehl 21-14, 21-18 in the third round of the women's singles event.
But minutes before the start of Saina's match, World No. 1 and top seed Yihan Wang of China was stunned by Japan's Eriko Hirose in a three-game thriller that lasted an hour and fifteen minutes. Hirose won 20-22, 21-16, 21-18.
No sign of nerves
However, Saina did not show any nerves against Diehl nor did she carry forward the sluggishness that marked her match against Chinese Taipei's Chen in the second round.
The Indian was aggressive from the start and knowing that her opponent Diehl liked long rallies kept the pace slow and killed the game in mid-court.
Within minutes of the start Saina was off to a 10-5 lead as the Russian made errors at the net.
Saina's main weapon, the drop shot, was again used to good effect as thrice in a row the Russian could not pick up the shuttle as it dropped inches off the net on her side.
At 18-14, Saina reeled off three points in a row, forcing an error at the net from Diehl to win the opening game 21-14.
In the second game, Saina again started off winning five consecutive points on her serve before Diehl won her first point on a net error by the Indian.
More wary
Both the players were a little more wary as the Russian tried to force the pace with a combination of drop shots and high tosses.
At 6-6, it seemed that the game would be tough and hard-fought, but Saina changed her strategy and played mid-court more often and avoided net play till she had a lead of 15-10.
When it looked like the game would go in Saina's favour, the Russian made a last ditch effort and equalised with some smart net play at 17-17.
But Saina got her composure back to take the lead at 20-18 and finally pocketed the match when Diehl sent the shuttle across the side line.
The results (third round):
Men: Kazushi Yamada (Jpn) bt Dicky Palyama (Ned) 14-21, 21-19, 21-11; Peter Gade (Den) bt Marc Zwiebler (Ger) 21-14, 21-15; Hsuen Hsuan Yi (Tpe) bt Boonsak Ponsana (Tha) 21-13, 21-11; Lin Dan (Chn) bt Bao Chunlai (Chn) 21-16, 21-13; Chen Jin (Chn) bt Chen Yong Zhao (Sin) 21-17, 21-10.
Women: Tine Baun (Den) bt Petya Nedelcheva (Bul) 21-19, 23-21; Wang Lin (Chn) bt Yip Pui Yin (Hkg) 21-13, 21-17; Erike Hirose (Jpn) bt Yihan Wang (Chn) 20-22, 21-16, 21-18; Wang Xin (Chn) bt Ai Goto (Jpn) 21-13, 21-13; Saina Nehwal (Ind) bt Ella Diehl (Rus) 21-14, 21-18.
