The "new" copies of the 20th anniversary DVD (meaning ones that were never opened) are going for a lot more than the used copies, as is often the case with out of print movies (though in some cases even used copies can go for quite a bit). The used copies on Amazon, while still kind of pricey for something that has been used, are far more reasonable, with a few coming in around $20. There are also auctions on ebay going for more reasonable prices.
Unfortunately this is what happens when some movies go out of print. I've run into it before, myself. I'll think of an old movie that I haven't seen or thought about in years, look it up, and find that at some point it was released on DVD, but is now long out of print (or one that seemed was recently readily available is suddenly scarce and out of print), with copies going for crazy prices.
I did get sort of lucky in a few cases, even if they did sort of require me to comprise on things that I normally avoid in my movie collection...
Tom Selleck was in a dark comedy movie in the early 90s called "Folks!" which I saw on video or cable back then (I forget which specifically) and found funny, even though, as I later found out, wasn't a box office hit by any means. I thought about it a year or two ago and decided to look for the DVD, only to find that it was out of print with "new" copies reaching and surpassing the $100 mark, and even used copies going for $40, $50, and often even more.
Then at one point last year a local Blockbuster video store was closing down and clearancing everything out. In addition to the movies in cases on the shelves, they had several discs in envelopes from their mail-rental service that they were selling for about $1 each. Normally I don't like buying movies without their cases, but I did pick up a good handful for that price (and in many cases I was able to find the case art online and print it up). And as I was looking through these movies, I almost crapped myself when I came across a copy of "Folks!"... for $1. And as I kept looking, I actually found 2 more copies, and I ended up buying all 3, figuring that at least one of them was bound to work in case any of them were scratched. It sucked not having the case (and I have yet to find a decent quality scan of the box art), but for that price I was not going to complain.
At one point, another obscure, box office failure that I saw on video years ago and was interested in seeing again was "Stuart Saves His Family", based on the Stuart Smally skit that Al Franken did on SNL. It was out of print with stand-alone copies going for crazy prices. But the same disc was included in one of those sets of 3 movies (each on their own disc) in one case together with two other SNL based movies, Wayne's World and The Coneheads. The 3-pack was going for a hell of a lot less than the stand alone movie, and while I already had Wayne's World and I usually avoid these sets as I prefer to have the movies in their own separate cases, for the price I wasn't going to complain.
Similarly, a movie that I hadn't seen since I was a kid and decided to look into was Back to the Beach. Out of Print, going for outrageous money. But there was also this really weird pack (weird because of the stark contrast between the types of movies, as opposed to the fore-mentioned SNL set which made sense) with Back to the Beach and Kids in the Hall: Brain Candy. This was an even bigger compromise since instead of being on separate discs, the movies are on either side of the same disc. Normally I would absolutely hate this, but I already had Brain Candy separately, so I don't care if that side of this other disc were to get scratched being face-up, and again, I wasn't going to complain about the price. This pack was so bizzare, though, as Back to the Beach is a very family friendly PG movie, while Brain Candy is a fairly hard R rated movie. But whatever.
Recently I paid almost $30 for The Meteor Man, which I could swear was in stores in the cheap bins at Wal-Mart not too long ago, but I couldn't find it anywhere for much less than that (in some cases it was going for more).

Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

As traumatic a film as it was to my eight-year-old self, I still get a kick out of it.

If anyone is curious the current master of Transformers: The Movie that runs on the Hub is the same as the one on the 25th Anniversary edition of the movie. I've seen the pictures showing some of the very off color from that edition, but surprisingly the off color is only in certain scenes, it seems that different teams worked on restoring different sections of the movie and one of them pushed some of the reds into the pink zone. For example, Hot Rod in the beginning of the movie looks more pink but later in the movie he is his normal red color.

It's the largest county in New York, and also one of the poorest. With just over 100,000 people, Saint Lawrence County relies on tourism and small businesses to survive. Barry Wygel takes a look at some of the unique challenges the county faces.
ST. LAWRENCE COUNTY, N.Y. -- It's a two hour drive from corner to corner, and it's the largest and one of the most diverse counties in the state.
"However, only 111,000 people. So you can see we have a lot of geography, few people, people sparsely located," said Karen St. Hilaire, St. Lawrence County administrator.
This presents a unique challenge that isn't faced anywhere else in the state.
"It takes a lot of coordination, which I think is one of the biggest issues we face, coordination, communication, and how do you bring people together when you have a lot of needs," said Hilaire.
St. Lawrence County also ranks consistently as one of the poorest counties in the state.
"When you don't get a lot of services located in one area. It's hard to get a lot of business and economic activity going in one particular area," said Hilaire.
While many counties have an economic and cultural center, St. Lawrence County does not. But having smaller towns isn't always a bad thing. "Each has its own unique flavor. Some are very rustic, some are more metropolitan, some are more collegiate. So we really have flavors for everybody," said Pat McKeown, executive director of the St. Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce.
Those flavors attract a wide variety of tourists to the county, which is a major economic engine. Much of St. Lawrence County's tourism comes from its bodies of water, whether it's fishers or boaters. Right here in Waddington, on the Canadian border, it's known as the carp capital of the world.
"We have 200 lakes, rivers and ponds, we have thousands of acres of forest. So people who are looking for that experience of being out in nature are not going to find it better than they are here," said Hilaire.
St. Lawrence County is trying to rev up its economic engine by increasing tourism to all areas of the county.

BALTIMORE (AP) -- The only finger-pointing Baltimore Orioles closer Jim Johnson did after blowing his second straight save after converting a club-record 35 in a row was at himself.
"I (stunk) tonight," he said after allowing five runs in one-third of an inning in a 10-6 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday.
Johnson knows what went wrong and how best to reverse the recent trend.
"Not getting strike one is a good place to start," he said. "Pitching behind, just not throwing quality pitches. It kind of snowballed back and didn't obviously make the pitch I needed to. It's just one of those days where it just didn't work."
Orioles manager Buck Showalter doesn't think Johnson is in a slump, nor does he believe the right-hander can't figure his way out of the funk.
"He had little command issues, but he usually works his way through them, like a lot of our pitchers, like all pitchers in the major leagues do at times," Showalter said.
After allowing the Rays' six-run rally in the ninth inning -- a comeback that ended the Orioles' streak of 109 straight victories when leading after seven innings -- Johnson (1-4) expects to get the call the next time Baltimore has a save situation.
And Showalter sounds ready to give it to him.
"I'm lucky to have him," Showalter said of Johnson. "We are. And we didn't finish off our game today, but we had some things that could have made it easier and that's baseball. That happens sometimes. It's very frustrating, but you've got to turn the page. It's a game of constant challenges, and there will be another one right around the corner."
Matt Joyce hit a go-ahead two-run double in the ninth inning to lift the Rays to their season-high third straight road victory, all of them come-front-behind wins.
"That's kind of been our identity from the beginning of the year," Rays third baseman Evan Longoria said. "We've really done a good job throughout the game of continuing to tack on runs, and even when we've been down early in games, finding a way to put together good at-bats and score runs."
Joyce also homered and finished 3 for 5 with five RBIs for the Rays.
"We believe in each other, and then you're able to do those things," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "If you stop believing, if you don't think it can't happen, then it never will. If you think it can happen, then it shall. And that's pretty much what this group's been about."
But this one came against a closer that had been virtually unbeatable until this week and a team that's been hard to overcome when taking a lead to the eighth.
"Their track record after seven innings has spoken for itself," Longoria said. "They've been really good late in the game. And Jim Johnson has been as good as they come. To be able to get to him and then tack a couple more on and be able to win a game like that, especially here in this hostile environment, is really big."
Trailing 6-4, Kelly Johnson hit a one-out homer off Jim Johnson, whose club-record streak of 35 straight saves ended Tuesday.
Johnson then loaded the bases on two walks and a hit before Joyce hit a two-run double to the right-center gap for a 7-6 lead. Ben Zobrist followed with a two-run double off Darren O'Day, who later issued a bases-loaded walk to Luke Scott.
"We're not clicking great right now, but unfortunately you go through little spells in a season like we play," Baltimore left fielder Nate McLouth said. "Like I said, there's no sense of sitting here and beating yourselves up about it. Wipe it clean and try to get it done tomorrow."
Adam Jones and Chris Davis homered for the Orioles, who have lost a season-high four straight.
Alex Torres (1-0) worked four hitless innings for the victory.
The Orioles sent 10 men to the plate in the first inning and took a 4-0 lead against Roberto Hernandez.
McLouth led off with a single, moved to second on a groundout and scored when Nick Markakis doubled over the head of Joyce. Jones then ripped a line drive homer to left off an 0-2 pitch and Davis followed with a shot to left-center.
Jair Jurrjens, whose contract was purchased before the game from Triple-A Norfolk, retired the first seven hitters he faced before allowing successive doubles to Jose Molina and Yunel Escobar. Molina's ball bounced off the top of the wall in center, prompting Maddon to seek a video review, which upheld the original call.

The Drivers You Love To Hate
Why is it that when I drive through my neighborhood on the way home all my neighbors, well not all my neighbors, but most of them snicker at the site of my tow truck. I know one reason why – it's because my neighborhood is heavily preyed on by parking enforcement and private party impounds. Heck, even my own pick up truck has been lifted, lucky for me I was able to run out and catch the guy from Western Towing, I got off easy – a $60 drop fee and I moved my truck back into the garage (which I was sweeping). Now everybody hates corruption and you gotta wonder about who's hands are getting greased on the HOA board to let some of these tow companies into our neighborhoods. I've got no beef with a legit tow outfit running a legit PPI parking enforcement but some of these towing services are going way overboard.
If someone parks where they aren't supposed to and they run out and catch a tow truck driver hooking up their car the first reaction is to yell, curse and scream at the guy. Now are some tow truck drivers douche bags? Yes, but so are some doctors and some lawyers, there are douche bag teachers, cops, you name it, you don't have to be a tow truck driver to be a jerk. Most impound drivers are good people just doing their jobs. Most impound drivers also run roadside assistance and help unlock babies out of cars. They jump start old lady's cars in Walmart parking lots and help pregnant women with flat tires. So what if the guy has a tattoo on his neck! Ok that's bit much, maybe they shouldn't allow guys with tattoos on their necks to creep around our neighborhoods at night while we are all sleeping. But hey tow truck drivers are people too.
For legitimate towing and roadside services we look at a company that is a beacon for what a tow company should be – the San Diego Tow Network out of San Diego, California. They offer every thing that a local toeing service can offer: lock out, jump start, flat tire services, and tow truck and towing service as well. If you are looking for towing San Diego reviews then look them up. You can also count on them for the fastest auto locksmith San Diego has available especially when there is the old baby locked in the car trick. We love the fact that there Chula Vista Towing office is one of the finest and offers great wrecker services as well as fast road service to all of Chula Vista, California.

Hyundai drops the top on Veloster C3 Roll Top concept for LA
by Zach Bowman (RSS feed) on Nov 28th, 2012 at 12:30PM
Hyundai has pulled the wraps off of a unique take on the company's three-door Veloster. the Veloster C3 Roll Top features a convertible roof stitched from repurposed industrial truck tarps. The roof can be slid either forward or back to make room for taller cargo in the rear or let more light into the cabin as see fit. Engineers also gave the concept a tailgate instead of a traditional hatch, and the vehicle's floor features salvaged skateboard decks to protect the cargo area. Designers say the concept was inspired largely by fixed gear bikes with a focus on low-cost modification. That's... Read More

–The Orion Team
The Orion Observer 60 Altazimuth refractor telescope is an excellent choice for beginning stargazers looking for a well-built, complete backyard telescope that can display wonderful views of the night sky at an affordable price. The whole family will appreciate the crisp views of celestial wonders provided by this capable refractor telescope.
A classic refractor telescope with precision glass optics and great portability, the Orion Observer 60 is a complete backyard telescope package that includes the refractor optical tube, a host of accessories, and an adjustable aluminum tripod. It is especially popular with junior astronomy enthusiasts, thanks to its simple operation and traditional appearance. The Observer 60 Altazimuth refractor telescope weighs just 5.8 lbs. total when assembled, including the mount and tripod, making it very easy for anyone in the family to transport from the house to the backyard for a night full of stargazing adventure.
You'll be pleasantly surprised at the sharp celestial sights you can see with an Orion Observer 60 Altazimuth refractor telescope. For starters, Saturn and its rings, Jupiter and its dancing moons, and the changing phases of Venus all display nicely in the Observer 60. Close-up views of the Moon's rocky, cratered surface will give you and your family a new way of looking at our planet's nearest neighbor in the night sky. Even the contrasting blue and gold gems of the double star Albireo can be detected with the Observer 60 Altazimuth refractor, not to mention dozens of "deep-sky" gems, including the magnificent Orion Nebula and the glittering Pleiades and Beehive star clusters.
The Orion Observer 60 Refractor Telescope offers higher quality and more reliable performance than any telescope you'd find in a department store. Featuring an aluminum telescope optical tube and all-glass optics, including a fully antireflection-coated 60mm achromatic objective lens, the Observer 60 yields crisp, bright images of the night sky. The altazimuth mount provides smooth motion in both altitude (up/down) and azimuth (left/right) axes of motion, and the sturdy yet lightweight aluminum tripod is adjustable for crowd-pleasing performance and comfort. There's even a handy accessory tray included that attaches to the tripod so you have a convenient spot to place your eyepieces and other astronomy accessories.
Outfitted with a great set of accessories, the Observer 60mm Altazimuth refractor comes with two telescope eyepieces: quality 25mm and 10mm Kellner oculars with 1.25" barrels, instead of inferior .965" barrels. The included telescope eyepieces will provide 28x power magnification, and 70x power magnification options right out of the box! The included Orion EZ Finder II reflex sight makes aiming the telescope nice and easy following a simple alignment procedure. A 90� mirror diagonal is included for comfortable nighttime viewing. The versatile Observer 60 refractor's 1.25" rack and pinion focuser adjusts smoothly and can also accept a 1.25" correct-image diagonal (sold separately) if you wish to use the telescope for daytime terrestrial viewing of wildlife, landscapes, and more.
Get the affordable Orion Observer 60 Altazimuth refractor telescope and discover how much fun you and your family can have exploring the starry skies!

See how the collaboration between a plumber and a buggy maker eventually led to the creation of the largest company in the world.
No one would have believed that the tinkering of a plumber would turn into the foundation of the world's largest corporation. But it did. David Dunbar Buick invented a process to adhere porcelain to tubs and other bathroom fixtures. But the Scottish immigrant dreamed of making a mark out of the bathroom, and set to work building a car. By 1900, he enlisted the aid of another inventor, Walter Marr, and they built their first vehicle. Their invention attracted the attention of one of Michigan's wealthiest men, William Crapo Durant, the president of the world's largest buggy-building business. As soon as he drove one of Buick's early creations, Durant realized that the days of the horse and buggy were over. He teamed up with Buick, and the two went on to make history. By the thirties, Buicks were regarded as some of the finest cars ever made. From the first Buicks through the birth of General Motors and into history, this is the compelling story of the partnership that eventually became the basis for the largest company in the world.

ARLINGTON, Va. -- Newly re-elected President Obama paid his respects to the country's fallen heroes at Arlington National Cemetery. In annual tradition, the President laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
Speaking after the ceremony, the President said ceremonies of this kind will never be enough to fully express gratitude to those who sacrifice so much for our country.
"Whenever American has come under attack, you've risen to her defense. Whenever our freedoms have come under assault, you've responded with resolve. Time and again, at home and abroad, you and your families have sacrificed to protect that powerful promise that all of us hold so dear: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness," said Obama.
Obama added that as President, he will never give up on his commitment to getting veterans what they need when they come home.

Kimi Raikkonen is one of three drivers on Red Bull Racing's short list to replace Mark Webber next season.
Webber announced on Thursday that he would be leaving Formula One at the end of this season to join Porsche's sports car programme.
The Aussie's decision has sparked speculation about who will replace him with Red Bull team boss Christian Horner revealing the team has a few drivers in mind.
One of those is Lotus driver Raikkonen while the Toro Rosso youngsters of Daniel Ricciardo and Jean-Eric Vergne could also make the step up.
"We want the fastest line-up that we can and Kimi's obviously an attractive option," Horner told Sky Sports F1.
"The youngsters [Ricciardo and Vergne] are attractive as well. We want to take our time and evaluate the options available to us, but the reality is that it's probably between those three."
And although that doesn't discount other drivers, Horner says it is those three that Red Bull are focused on.
Asked if Paul di Resta stood a chance, he said: "Obviously you've got to look at everything and everyone who's available.
"I'm not sure what Paul's situation is, but as I say, our focus will primarily be on those three guys."

Hundreds Attend Rally Opposing Dwight Prison Closure
Hundreds of people in northern Illinois have rallied to show their support for Dwight Correctional Center.
Hundreds of people in northern Illinois have rallied to show their support for Dwight Correctional Center.
State Rep. Adam Brown (R-Decatur) and his GOP primary challenger, Rob Roman (R-Chrisman) agreed on most issues at a forum at the Champaign Public Library on Monday.
The Illinois Green Party's state convention drew the party faithful to Macomb March 3-4. But the Greens will need to attract many more true believers if they hope to make an impact.
Around 40 people took part in the convention in the Sandburg Theater at Western Illinois University. The empty seats far outnumbered the party members.
Nonetheless, Illinois Green Party Chair Phil Huckelberry believes most Americans have a lot more in common with the party than they might realize. He called the Greens the "majoritarian" party in the US.
"On issue after issue, we really believe that our position is in line with the majority of the general public, and neither the Republicans nor the Democrats are there," Huckelberry said.
Huckelberry said the Greens oppose handouts to big businesses, they want to see more participatory democracy, and they oppose the escalation of international conflicts.
The Green Party will not appear on ballots during the March 20 primary in Illinois. It failed to earn enough votes during the 2010 election to retain automatic ballot status. Huckelberry said the convention was used to launch a petition drive to gather 25,000 signatures to ensure the Green Party appears on ballots in the November election.
"We hit kind of a wall after 2010 when we lost established party status," Huckelberry said. "We're hoping that this meeting is really going to rev things back up."
The party chose to hold its convention in Macomb after the Campus Greens at WIU made a splash during last fall's mock election at the university.
"Having a campus organization that's a third party be one of the largest organizations on campus, and be the most involved, really drew in a lot of attention," Campus Greens President Staci Buster said.
"I think it impressed a lot of the Illinois Green Party members."
The convention featured policy discussions and the selection of delegates to the party's national convention, which will take place in Baltimore in July. The candidates for the party's presidential nomination are Dr Jill Stein and Roseanne Barr.
The Illinois Green Party also used its convention in Macomb to host seminars on sustainable foods, renewable energy, and strategies for winning local elections.
The Urbana Police Department has picked a new assistant chief of police to replace Anthony Cobb, who will become the head of the Champaign Police Department on March 12.
On Monday night, the Urbana City Council unanimously approved the appointment of Sylvia Morgan.
During her nearly 20-year tenure with Urbana police, Morgan has served as a patrol officer, a detective, and as a sergeant overseeing the street crimes unit. In her new role, she said she wants to work on improving morale within the Urbana Police Department.
"The police aren't always viewed in the best light, so that wears on police officers," Morgan said. "I think it is important and I have a good relationship now with most of the department from working with them every day. So, I think keeping up the morale of the police department would be one of the ways we could try to work well with the community as well."

The Urbana's City Council Monday night approved a resolution to name the city's federal courthouse after Champaign County's first African-American elected official.
A new website collects thousands of free video and audio clips from public television and radio.
Illinois PBS Learning Media is meant for teachers. But anyone can sign up for an account, including parents who home-school their children. The project is a joint effort by PBS headquarters in Washington and local public broadcasting stations, both TV and radio.
Mark Leonard is president of the Illinois Public Broadcasting Council and general manager at WILL. He said the website will help teachers meet the needs of a generation raised on digital media.
"Kids today have access to everything from video games to online services, and they are conditioned to being able to learn using these kinds of tools," Leonard said. "And yet our classrooms have still relied on chalkboards and on textbooks."
The media can be organized by grade level, from kindergarten through high school. It can also be broken down by subject matter, from math and science to social studies and the arts. Seventy four teachers from more than 40 schools were part of a pilot program that started last fall.
The program is looked upon as a more streamlined way of offering this content, rather than schools doing their own web searches. Sharon Pool is director of student services at Gibson City Melvin Sibley Schools, one of more than 40 districts in a pilot program that started last fall.
"It's always tough for teachers to find good quality materials," she said. "And while they can go to YouTube and some of the other teacher resources, a lot of those aren't ever edited or they're not evaluated. And so by having a source like PBS where they can go directly to those, knowing it's a quality digital library that has been approved, it really is a great benefit."
University of Illinois Assistant Dean of Learning Technologies Evangeline Pianfetti commissioned the pilot study. She said the next steps include following up with those teachers, and finding where the lessons are most effective. Pianfetti said some students are using it to train for the Illinois Standard Achievement Test.
"That's where a lot of the teachers would like to be able to use these tools because of the engagement and how you could look at it," she said. "How the students could at concepts, and use the media to support these concepts. Specifically, there were a lot of science-related and math-related resources that were heavily used."
Pianfetti said there's a wealth of information within this program, but teachers are able to pick and choose at what volume they wish to use it. She said early feedback from teachers should help expand the use of PBS Learning Media's resources.
The Champaign school board plans to issue $14.5 million in bonds for building upgrades and a new transportation facility. The bonds would be paid back over the next 20 years by increased property taxes. But a local citizens group says the voters should have a say on the matter.
Champaign County Board candidate Don Kermath is organizing a petition drive to put the bond question on the ballot. He says the type of bonds Unit Four wants to issue --- working cash bonds --- ought to be used to fill short-term gaps in operational funding --- not for building projects.
"Now it has blown into this fund where you can supersede the will of the people, and exceed normal spending limits by using the working cash funds bonds" says Kermath. "And that's where I think we are putting our schools at financial risk."
Kermath says the financial risk exists, because Unit Four would have to pay the bonds back at a time when state funding for education is in danger of falling even further behind.
Kermath, a Republican, was joined at a Champaign news conference Monday by Democratic County Board member Pattsi Petrie and Champaign County Libertarian Party Chair Dianna Visek.
Visek criticized the Unit Four school board for using working cash bonds, which can be passed without voter input, unless voters collect petition signatures within a 30-day window.
"This issue should be put to the voters in a referendum", says Visek. "And the school board, because they don't want to spend the time and effort having to conduct a referendum, has decided to use this 'backdoor referendum' to not have to talk to the voters. That is not fair."
Unit Four spokesperson Lyn Peisker responded to the group's concerns about further delays in state funding. She says Unit Four is managing its finances so it can pay its own way if state funding gets worse. She says the district has used working cash bonds for capital projects before, and recently paid off such bonds issued in 2006.
Peisker says the district will use the 20-year bonds to pay for wireless technology upgrades at Unit Four buildings, new geothermal systems to keep classrooms cool at the middle schools, and construction of a new transportation facility. Plans to have the bonds also pay for new laptop computers for students have been dropped.
Kermath's group will have to collect over 5,913 signatures by the end of March to put the Unit Four bond issue on the ballot. He's set up a website at AVoiceForSchools.com.
The University of Illinois' Board of Trustees met with embattled university President Michael Hogan on Monday for more than three hours.
The meeting came a week after 130 faculty members signed a letter, urging Hogan to resign. Faculty say they have lost confidence in his ability to lead the U of I, and Board of Trustees Chairman Chris Kennedy said that needs to change.
"I'd say the issues around re-building that support are issues that Mike Hogan needs to play a leadership role in," Kennedy said. "That is not something that the board can do for him, but we're confident that Mike can do it for himself. Time will tell and we'll review it closely over the next few months."
Earlier this year, Hogan's former chief of staff, Lisa Troyer, resigned amid an investigation into emails sent to the Faculty Senates Conference concerning Hogan's enrollment policy. Troyer has denied sending the messages, and an investigation cleared Hogan of any wrongdoing.
Faculty members allege that Hogan pressured Urbana Chancellor Phyllis Wise to quell faculty opposition to the enrollment plan. Kennedy said it is critical for faculty to have mutual respect for each other.
"We needed our people to change or we needed change in our people," Kennedy said. "We are as trustees committed to the notion of shared governance of a collaborative atmosphere, and we want all the faculty to understand that they have an important role in the leadership of the university, and we're convinced that over the next month or two that we'll see specific evidence of the president's leadership along those lines."
The Board of Trustees is scheduled to meet on the Urbana campus on March 15. Meanwhile, President Hogan is scheduled to release a revised version of his enrollment management plan later this month.

In a move that surprised City Hall and organizers, the White House abruptly announced Monday that the G-8 summit of world leaders would not be coming to Chicago in May, and will instead convene at Camp David in Maryland.
A meeting of some 50 world leaders in NATO, which had been scheduled to take place back-to-back with the G-8 meeting over the weekend of May 19-21, will go ahead as scheduled.
In a statement, the White House gave no clear reason for moving the G-8 meeting.
"In May, the United States looks forward to hosting the G-8 and NATO Summits," the statement reads. "To facilitate a free-flowing discussion with our close G-8 partners, the President is inviting his fellow G-8 leaders to Camp David on May 18-19 for the G-8 Summit, which will address a broad range of economic, political and security issues.
"The President will then welcome NATO allies and partners to his hometown of Chicago for the NATO Summit on May 20-21, which will be the premier opportunity this year for the President to continue his efforts to strengthen NATO in order to ensure that the Atlantic Alliance remains the most successful alliance in history, while charting the way forward in Afghanistan."
Summit organizers and Mayor Rahm Emanuel's administration were quick to say that the White House was responsible for the decision. Emanuel's administration and the Chicago host committee that has been raising money to pay for the summits just found out about the change Monday, according to sources.
"We are taking this at face value," said host committee spokeswoman Jennifer Martinez. "What we were told is that [President Barack Obama] wants to have a more intimate setting at Camp David," adding that Mr. Obama "wants to have more intimate discussions on some political and economic concerns that are taking place in the world."
Despite the expectation that thousands of protesters would descend on Chicago during the summits, the decision to change the venue was not based on security concerns, said another source with knowledge of the situation.
"We wish President Obama and the other leaders well at the G8 meeting at Camp David and look forward to hosting the NATO Summit in Chicago," the mayor said in an emailed statement. "Hosting the NATO Summit is a tremendous opportunity to showcase Chicago to the world and the world to Chicago and we are proud to host the 50 heads of state, foreign and defense ministers from the NATO and ISAF countries in our great city May 19-21."
The White House announcement means world leaders will now discuss some of the more controversial items on their agenda - including what to do about escalating tensions over Iran's nuclear program - at a secluded, well-secured retreat, rather than in the heart of Mr. Obama's adopted hometown, just months before he runs for re-election.
Emanuel's administration and summit organizers have been touting the May summits as Chicago's opportunity on the world stage. The dual world meetings that had been set to meet at McCormick Place would have marked the first time both NATO and the G-8 have met in the same city since 1977.
But some downtown business leaders and residents have been more concerned about the potential for violent protests accompanying the summits. The left-wing magazine Adbusters, which helped inspire the Occupy movement, recently put out a call for 50,000 protesters to flock to Chicago during May. The prospect of huge demonstrations and tight security have prompted the cancellation of everything from high school proms to arts events.
Summit organizers on Monday offered no explanation as to why the G-8 meetings had been moved, but rather focused on the remaining task at hand.
"We are honored to be the first major American city to host a NATO summit and look forward to showcasing Chicago to the world," said Lori Healey, Executive Director for the Chicago Host Committee that's planning the summits. "Hosting the NATO Summit is a fantastic opportunity to shine a spotlight on Chicago as a global city and an unparalleled destination for travel, tourism, and business.
Governor Pat Quinn's proposed budget cuts to the Illinois Department of Natural Resources are so severe, the agency's chief of staff says it's on the brink of closing.
Jay Curtis says in the past decade the department's budget shrunk from $106 million dollars to $45 million. And Curtis says in that ten years the agency has lost over half its employees.
"It's hard to operate an agency when that happens," he said. "We're one of the broadest in scope of all agencies in the state. We affect people's lives everywhere in the state. We own property and we have a presence in every county in the state."
Quinn wants to reduce D-N-R's budget this year by 13.5 percent. The agency will stop producing is monthly magazine, "Outdoor Illinois."
But Director Marc Miller has promised that parks will not be closed.
At least one legislator is suggesting fees to enter state parks as another way to supplement the department's shrinking budget.

Graduate Intern Programs
During 2014, the GPSI program is celebrating 40 years of public service (1974-2014). If you are a former GPSI intern, we would like to hear from you. Please please contact the director, Rance Carpenter, at email@example.com.
"While working as a GPSI intern at IDOT, I was given real responsibilities and treated like a full-time staff member. I was able to contribute to my agency and use the concepts I learned while simultaneously earning my Master's Degree.
After my GPSI placement, I was hired full-time as a Project Manager in the office of Diversity Recruitment and Outreach at IDOT, before moving on to become the Assistant Director of Admissions at the Illinois Institute of Art. I am thankful for all the opportunities I was given through the GPSI program, and I would highly recommend UIS's GPSI program to anyone considering a graduate degree."

Since becoming a widow, almost 5 years ago, I have met some truely wonderful and supportive people.
However, I've also met some genuine disgusting types who must think that my pants are burning off. This has led to some of the nastiest / gross come ons and facial expressions from people that a few years ago I would have punched if they had suggested something like that to my face. Now I just feel profoundly sorry for these pathetic individuals. Is anyone else having to deal with unwanted attractions, just because they are widowed? If so how do you stop it, because quite frankly, my husband would have instructed me to keep the thumb to the outside and continue hitting until they were on the ground. A broken jaw, prevents broken language.

|Eli and Max Sussman
|URL - Link:
|Prep Time:
|15 minutes
|Cook Time:
|45 minutes
|Number of Servings:
|2 lb. thinly sliced Idaho potatoes
1 medium onion, diced to 1/4-inch
1 clove garlic, minced
3 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. flour
1 1/2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 cup warm milk
salt and pepper
|1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and place oven rack in top section of the oven.
2. Coat the sides of a 13-by-9 baking pan with the butter. You will have extra butter. Set it aside.
3. Toss potatoes, onions, garlic, flour, half the cheese and generous amount of salt and pepper. Mix very well so that everything is evenly distributed and you can't see the flour anymore, then pour into buttered baking dish.
4. Break up the butter into small pieces with your hands and place them evenly spaced over the potatoes.
5. Pour milk over, then sprinkle remaining cheese on top of that.
6. Cover with foil and bake 15 minutes.
7. Uncover and continue cooking until potatoes are soft and cheese is brown and bubbly, 20-30 minutes longer.
