Joanne Cromie; Taught At Parochial Schools
May 6, 1998
By Herb Drill, INQUIRER CORRESPONDENT
Joanne Florig Cromie, 53, a teacher for Montgomery County parochial schools, died Saturday of cancer at her home in East Norriton Township. Mrs. Cromie, who began her teaching career at age 17, had taught at St. Mary School in Norristown, St. Philip Neri School in Lafayette Hill, and, in recent years, at Epiphany of Our Lord School in Plymouth Township, where she taught kindergarten and fifth grade. A native of Norristown, she graduated from the former Bishop Kenrick High School in Norristown in 1962 and earned her degree in education from Gwynedd Mercy College.

Regina Medina
THE ARCHDIOCESE of Philadelphia's Office of Catholic Education on Thursday named two Catholic educators as the new superintendents of schools, effective immediately. Carol A.

Ruling Costs District Staff Teachers Sent Back To Parochial Schools
February 27, 1986
By Martha Woodall, Inquirer Staff Writer
As a result of a Feb. 5 decision by a federal judge, 325 teachers and aides in the Philadelphia school district whose salaries are paid with federal funds were sent back to Catholic schools this week. But educators said the ruling was a mixed blessing: While parish principals were rejoicing over the return of their longtime staff, their public school counterparts who had been relying on the services of the teachers and aides were upset by their departure. "We are elated to have them back," said Sister Helen Ann Sharkey, principal of St. Malachy School in North Philadelphia, which welcomed back three part-time aides and a reading specialist on Monday.
Inquirer Editorial: Privatization may not be parochial schools' savior
August 24, 2012
As the financially struggling Archdiocese of Philadelphia looks to a private foundation to manage its high schools, it should take a close look at the city public schools' venture into similar waters to avoid the same mistakes. Beginning Sept. 1, the Faith in the Future Foundation will take over management of 17 Catholic high schools and four special-education schools. It will become the first independently run Catholic system in the country. Grade schools will still be managed by the parishes.
Last Day Parents, Teachers Proudly Bid Farewell To Parochial School
June 13, 1987
By Laura Quinn, Inquirer Staff Writer
By yesterday morning, there wasn't much left inside St. Michael's Elementary School in Gibbstown, except some clunky steel desks and the paper tulips on the windows in the first grade. It was a forlorn sight to Becky Blazek. Blazek has had the misfortune of presiding over St. Michael's Parent- Teachers Association during its worst year. She was still shaken yesterday as the school's last day of classes wound to a close. "How can I say it?" she said, choking back tears.
District and parochial schools closed today, windchill to dip below 0
January 23, 2014
BY REGINA MEDINA, Daily News Staff Writer firstname.lastname@example.com, 215-854-5985
THE DREADED polar vortex hit Philadelphia again yesterday morning - earlier than expected - and resulted in school closures today, massive flight cancellations and a snow emergency that's in effect until noon. All Philadelphia district and Archdiocesan schools are closed today. Early-childhood and after-school programs run by the district also will be shuttered. For more information on school closures, call the district's information hotline at 215-400-INFO (4636) or log on to philasd.org.
Parochial schools heed suburbs' call Beyond the inner-city closings, area dioceses encounter a boom.
January 14, 2002
By Kristen A. Graham INQUIRER SUBURBAN STAFF
Four times a year, the choice to send her two children to Catholic school makes Winnie Branton wince. But for the 361 other days, the Haddonfield mother has no regrets about her decision to bypass the Camden County borough's highly regarded public-education system for close-knit Christ the King, her parish's school for kindergarten through eighth grade. "The days I have to pay my quarterly taxes, it kills me. But I like the town and I love the school, so it's worth it," Branton said.
Njsiaa Set To Realign Parochial Football Groups Under The Plan, Parochial Schools Would Be Divided Into Four Groups, With Statewide Playoffs In Each.
April 16, 1993
By Marc Narducci, INQUIRER CORRESPONDENT
New Jersey's parochial-school football playoffs could be drastically altered if a proposal currently before the NJSIAA Executive Committee is approved. The proposal, which would affect only football, would do the following: Eliminate the current classifications of Parochial A and Parochial B, and replace them with four groups: Parochial 1, Parochial 2, Parochial 3 and Parochial 4. Eliminate the current Parochial North and Parochial South geographical sections and regroup the state's 42 football-playing parochial schools on a statewide basis.
Big changes for parochial education Populations have moved, learning goals have changed. Parochial schools aim to keep and better serve more pupils.

By Kristen A. Graham INQUIRER SUBURBAN STAFF
A year ago, Christa Hill was facing a problem. She wanted her daughter Caitlyn, then 3, to eventually attend a parochial school, but the Gibbstown woman had no parish preschool nearby. "I wanted to send her to a school where she would get the background for the Catholic school she'd be going to later," Hill said. Today, Hill is readying Caitlyn for her first day in the 4-year-old prekindergarten class at Guardian Angels Regional School, which will open Sept. 5 to students in Gibbstown, Paulsboro and Mullica Hill.
Task Force Releases School-safety Ideas This Hearing Focused On Private And Parochial Schools. A Final Report Will Be Presented At A Summit Next Month.

By Mark Stroh, INQUIRER SUBURBAN STAFF
More extracurricular activities, better teacher training, and increased communication between schools and police were among the recommendations announced yesterday by Pennsylvania Attorney General Mike Fisher during a school-safety hearing at Cardinal O'Hara High School. Fisher, who is running for reelection this year against Democratic challenger Jim Eisenhower, formed his Task Force on School Safety last August. Led by A. Leo Sereni, president judge emeritus of Delaware County, the task force has held school-safety hearings throughout the state.

House leadership delays vote on cigarette tax
August 1, 2014
BY REGINA MEDINA, Daily News Staff Writer email@example.com, 215-854-5985
SCHOOLS Superintendent William Hite yesterday reiterated what he considers the inevitable consequences if state legislators fail to pass the cigarette-tax bill by Aug. 15: layoffs and a delayed school opening. That dire scenario apparently didn't move House members enough to head back to Harrisburg on Monday to consider House Bill 1177. The Republican leadership, instead, announced yesterday that the House would deal with the proposed legislation when both chambers return Sept. 15, seven days after the scheduled start of school.

Community members debate 'common enrollment' for city schools
January 15, 2014
BY SOLOMON LEACH, Daily News Staff Writer firstname.lastname@example.com, 215-854-5903
WITH A CHILD in seventh grade, Philadelphia resident Sarah Forrest has already begun navigating the high-school application process. Although it's fairly simple for district-run schools, she said, the process can be anything but for charters. She said information on the charter application process is available, but the schools have different timelines, "and it's kind of all over the map," said Forrest, who also has a third-grader in the district. Forrest is hardly alone. She was among a few hundred community members who debated a proposal for a single application and common enrollment for district-run, charter and parochial high schools last night at a School Reform Commission meeting.
What does Philly schools funder Mark Gleason want?
December 24, 2013
BY WILL BUNCH, Daily News Staff Writer email@example.com, 215-854-2957
JUST 10 years ago, Mark Gleason was a journalist and publisher working in New York, trying to launch a magazine called Book that was heavily funded by Barnes & Noble. His first foray into education came a couple of years later, when as a sometimes-frustrated parent he ran for and won a seat on his suburban school board in North Jersey. Now the 48-year-old Gleason - unknown in Philadelphia at the start of the decade - finds himself at the center of the maelstrom that is school reform in America's fifth-largest city.
Letters: Why find jobs for ex-cons?
August 28, 2013
FOR EVERY article written about ex-offenders, I notice that there is never any mention of the fact that these people are where they are in their lives because of the choices they made. Why should they be rewarded with special treatment while the law-abiding person is overlooked for making the right choices in his or her life? I can understand second chances but at whose expense? With all the unemployed people in Philadelphia, why are companies only being offered incentives for hiring ex-cons?
Philly schools go on your report card, too
August 12, 2013
By Ronnie Polaneczky, Daily News Columnist
A READER CALLED to complain about the coverage the Daily News gave to Philadelphia School District Superintendent William Hite's announcement that our dead-broke schools might not open on Sept. 9. "I'm sick of reading about the schools," he bitched. (Yes, I just used the word "bitched. " I am that angry.) He no longer has school-age kids, he said. Besides, he sent his children to parochial schools, so the state of public education has never meant anything to him. "Not everyone in Philly uses public school," he said.
4 adults, 10 youths charged in Center City disturbance
April 12, 2013
By Sulaiman Abdur-Rahman, Inquirer Staff Writer
A fight between two teenage girls Tuesday afternoon in Center City drew a large crowd of young people in the area of 15th and Chestnut Streets, said parents of some of the teens arrested at the scene. It was not a planned "flash mob," and the crowd had not gathered for any particular purpose, the parents said Wednesday. "My son wasn't out there fighting," Dwayne Louis, 39, said outside the Youth Study Center, where 10 juveniles were awaiting hearings Wednesday. Whatever happened, police arrested 14 people - including Louis' son - amid rumors of a flash mob. The Wendy's restaurant at 15th and Chestnut locked its doors during the mayhem.
Education group eyes system for 1 citywide school application
March 21, 2013
BY REGINA MEDINA, Daily News Staff Writer firstname.lastname@example.com, 215-854-5985
WHILE the number of district-run and parochial schools shrinks and the city's charter-school population booms, a group of education advocates is looking at a plan to implement a single, citywide enrollment process. The result could alter Philadelphia's educational landscape. The plan, still in the early stages, would involve students' filling out one application that would place them on lists at district, charter and parochial schools in the city, said Miles Wilson, director of the Great Schools Compact for the Philadelphia Schools Partnership.
In hot Fox Chase, the problem is not enough supply
March 11, 2013
By Alan J. Heavens, Inquirer Real Estate Writer
One in a continuing series spotlighting the real estate market in this region's communities. It had been March for only about 12 hours, but already the front windows of houses on every street in Fox Chase were sporting shamrocks in anticipation of St. Patrick's Day. The day also was on the mind of Gina O'Rourke, who with husband Sean owns In the Loop Cafe at Barnes and Loney Streets. She was in the market for Irish musicians to perform March 16 at the cafe's St. Patrick's "acoustic breakfast.

The basketball arena is built from 1,000 tons of steel, so it may be a stretch to call it "green". Nonetheless, compared to Zaha Hadid's contribution to the London Games – the lavish Olympics Aquatic Center – and the £500 million main stadium, we can acknowledge a significant step in a more sustainable direction.
The already-complete basketball stadium is mobile, comparatively lightweight, and designed to be a temporary structure. According to Architizer, Dennis Hone, Chief Executive of the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA), said that he hopes this new model will enable more countries to benefit from the economic stimulus typically associated with large sporting events such as the Olympic Games.

This is a great initiative that is becoming more popular, and is a logical step to take in the design of new buildings.
The Pixel Building in Melbourne has been designed for disassembly, such that 99% of the building facade can be easily dismantled and reused or recycled.

Yes, because England sucks at Basketball, they don't really need a basketball stadium!

Millman Leads Assembly's Campaign Finance Reform Effort
June 18, 2009
Brooklyn – On Tuesday the Assembly passed the 2010 Campaign Finance Reform Act (A.8902), legislation sponsored by Assemblywoman Joan L. Millman. As the newly-appointed chair of the Assembly Election Law Committee, Assemblywoman Millman also led the debate on the Assembly floor in favor of the bill. This sweeping campaign finance reform measure will apply to all elected state officials by providing optional public financing of campaigns. In addition, the bill will set limits on the amount of money political parties can spend or transfer to participating candidates, set detailed prohibitions on what public funds can be used for, ensure candidates without an opponent do not receive public funds, and create a $5 income tax check-off box to help build a non-partisan, New York State Campaign Financing Fund for eligible candidates. "This legislation levels the playing field for candidates in New York's campaigns, allowing challengers and incumbents to compete fairly while capping the amount of public funds that can be expended," Millman said. "On the Assembly floor, I debated the merits of the bill in order to convince my colleagues to vote for a measure that many of their own constituents support. It is critical that we adopt measures to prevent special interests from playing such an important role in the work of state legislators." The time frame for enacting this bill would begin with the 2010 New York State Comptroller's election. In 2014, the program would be extended to include the statewide offices of Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General and Constitutional Delegate. Finally, in 2016, candidates for New York State Assembly and Senate would also be eligible to opt into the public financing program.

Cramer: Apple Doesn't Need to Pay a Dividend
This article was originally published on Real Money on Feb. 27, 11:45 a.m.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- There's way too much chatter about what Apple (AAPL) has to do with its cash position and not enough about Apple's earnings. And I don't even want to go into the idea of the stock split. If you really need a stock split to buy, move on. The idea of buying just a couple of shares worked for buying Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) decades ago when it traded at similar prices, and it can work now.
Why doesn't the dividend matter in Apple and matter so much to me in Berkshire Hathaway? Pretty simple: earnings momentum. I was surprised at how little earnings momentum Berkshire has. Instead, Buffett focuses on book value. That's all well and good if the company is willing to buy back stock to take advantage of its discount, a discount that Warren Buffett chatters about throughout his letter.
But Buffett chose not to buy much stock at all. I regard that as somewhat quizzical if you really believe that your stock is undervalued. Further, even more oddly, Buffett highlights the IBM (IBM) buyback as being a terrific one, even though IBM is clearly overvalued compared with Berkshire when it comes to book value. If the market cared about book value, Berkshire would be much higher. It doesn't.I have suggested here that if Berkshire wants to bring out its value and give shareholders a decent return, Buffett should give us a dividend. So why do I not care about a dividend with Apple? Because I accept the dichotomy between a growth stock and a value stock. Buffett is trumpeting Berkshire as a value stock. When I buy a value stock, I like a dividend to help pay me to stay while the value is brought out. His love of buybacks is palpable. Berkshire is not paying you a dividend any time soon, as long as Buffett is in charge. Apple, though, is a growth stock. It's got some terrific earnings momentum and can earn $55 a share for fiscal year 2012. That's phenomenal growth, and in classic earnings-per-share growth analysis, measuring the company's growth vs. its price-to-earnings multiple, Apple may be the cheapest growth stock I know.

One Attorney's Personal Story
Back in 2001, my marriage was falling apart. My income was below the poverty level and I simply could not afford to hire an attorney. My spouse, on the other hand, had the financial support of his family and hired an attorney to obtain custody of our son. I was terrified at the thought that I would lose custody of my child simply because I could not afford representation. I did not know where to turn.During this time, I was working for child support enforcement and had confided in the agency's attorney, Jodie Thompson, about my situation. Without hesitation, Jodie graciously offered to handle my divorce without compensation. I cannot express the relief I felt knowing that I would have a voice in court and that I would be on equal footing with my soon-to-be-ex-husband.Jodie's kindness did not stop there. I was unsure of what life had in store for me after the divorce and I didn't know how I would support my family. Jodie encouraged me to apply for law school and wrote an amazing letter of recommendation for me. She also talked to other community members about potential scholarships for law school and provided letters of recommendations for those applications as well. She continued to check up on me during school to make sure I was succeeding.With Jodie's help and encouragement, I made it through law school, which has changed my life for the better in many, many ways. I will be forever grateful for her willingness to make sure I was represented well in court - a very scary process for those unfamiliar with the system. Her kindness and generosity will not be forgotten.Now that I am a practicing attorney, I understand just how difficult it can be to provide pro bono legal services. Concerns about malpractice claims/insurance, client control problems, time constraints, and a number of other legitimate reasons often create barriers to taking on these types of cases. While these concerns are not to be discarded lightly, pro bono legal work is an important service we should all strive to provide to Wyoming's citizens whenever possible. You just never know how your contribution, no matter how big or small, will impact your pro bono client's life.Amanda Roberts earned a B.A. in administration of justice from the University of Wyoming in 1998. She earned a J.D. from the University of Wyoming College of Law in 2005, graduating with honors. She served as a staff attorney for Hon. E. James Burke of the Wyoming Supreme Court from 2005-2007 and is currently an associate for Lonabaugh and Riggs, LLP in Sheridan, Wyoming.

Our InnerSea Discoveries cruise on the Wilderness Discoverer was more about outdoor activities than port stops. The ship's Eastern Coves itinerary does stop in one town along the Inside Passage, the outdoor activity haven of Wrangell.
Unfortunately, InnerSea Discoveries told us that there weren't any more spots on the Wrangell daytrip that we really wanted to do, a visit to the famed Anon Bear Observatory (although we found out later that other cruise passengers without advance reservations were able to go – grr!) If you ever do end up in Wrangell, the bear trip is the one to take. I hope I can go back sometime to see it (I think I was one of the few people on the cruise who didn't see a bear the entire trip).
Denied our bear viewing, we set out to explore the town. While Wrangell is mostly used as base to get further out into the wilderness – the Stikine River is not far – Petroglyph Beach State Historic Park is just a short walk from town. The beach has the highest concentration of petroglyphs in Southeast Alaska and we found them easily.
We continued to enjoy temperate weather. In August, southeast Alaska feels a lot like the Pacific Northwest in the fall, with temperatures in the 50s and 60s. Sweatshirt and jeans weather, no humidity. Rain comes and goes, but on this day, we were lucky.
Like many of the smaller towns in the Alaska Inside Passage, Wrangell has a quirky charm. Many of the houses had fun decorations related to fishing, hunting or …..pirates.
We couldn't leave Wrangell without doing one outdoor excursion. Don is a huge fishing fan, but I had never been. We decided that I needed to lose my fishing virginity.
The Wilderness Discoverer set us up with John Yeager of Alaska Charters & Adventures. We liked John right away: He writes about fishing on his blog and other publications, and has an active Twitter feed (@WrangellFishing). And his wife, Brenda Schwartz-Yeager, is an artist in town who makes paintings using old maps.
There were four of us from the ship who signed up to fish. I was the only fishing novice, but John took it in stride. We set out looking for coho salmon, which were running in August.
Little did I know that on these kind of charters, you don't have to be much of an expert, as John set up all of the poles for us. We watched, and when one of the poles started to bend, we jumped up and John helped us reel it in.
When my pole started pulling, I jumped up. John showed me how to reel and helped me bring it in. It took a while, but I finally got my fish close enough for John to grab it with a net. You can see the result – the 12 pound coho above! To say I was thrilled is an understatement (although I was a little squicked out by the blood running down my arm. I didn't know that fish bleed!)
Don's fish wasn't as impressive. But at least he caught something: the two other guys on the boat didn't get anything. Which means I had the biggest catch of the day! Sadly, neither of us were able to keep our fish. We donated them to the local senior center.
Spending the afternoon out in the Alaska waters felt peaceful. I think I see the appeal of fishing now: A couple of beers, some brilliant scenery, lively camaraderie and short bursts of exciting activity? Sign me up!
The only thing I didn't like is that we ended up paying more by going through the ship, which charged us $200 per person for a four hour trip. If we would have gone directly through John, we could have done a full day – 8 hours – for $295 per person (2 person minimum). Just goes to prove that cruise excursions are a rip off, even if you're on a smaller ship. You are ALWAYS better off booking them on your own.
I would love to go back to the Wrangell area again so we could visit the Bear Observatory, take a boat trip up the Stikine River, and try fishing again. Don wants to go in May, when the king salmon are running.

i completely miss read that... i think i saw "now" instead of "not".... [blush]... yeah... completely WTF
If you submit a digital scan to the same standards set for other digital images, why does it matter how it was captured?
Liam, it is all just to save money. there is far less expense in handling all the digital submissions than if there were analog submissions.
For the first time since they started hosting it in 1969, the Nikon Photo Contest International (NPCI) - now renamed just NPC, is not accepting scans of film photographs. Only digital entries (including digital MF and digital LF).
This is a bit annoying, and troubling - but also funny that their lead judge is a photographer who mostly shoots BW film with a medium format camera. He wouldn't be able to enter the contest he is judging.
Ken, what style of photography are you going for? fine art, sport, portraits, journalism, etc.
I'm going to try and become a better photographer. I have a nikon c3300, just a point and shoot. Any tips for becoming better?

Q. At age 59½, I would like to take an in-service withdrawal in June of about $100,000 from my Thrift Savings Plan. I plan to retire in December at age 60. Once I take the one-time, in-service withdrawal, can the rest be set up on monthly payments after I retire in December? A. Yes. Monthly payments are a form of full withdrawal.
Browsing: in-service withdrawal
Military TSP vs. civil service TSP0
Q. I retired from active duty two years ago and have worked in civil service for one year. I am contributing 10 percent of my civil service base pay and have a fairly good amount in my active-duty military Thrift Savings Plan. I am entertaining the idea of consolidating my TSP plans for a couple of reasons. First, simplicity of managing one account. Secondly I believe, from what I have read on numerous sites, I will have greater control of current and future funds using the civil service side of TSP versus the active-duty military side. By this, I mean in-service withdrawals,…
Age-based, in-service withdrawal vs. partial withdrawal0
Q. I'm a 32-year FERS employee, 60 years old and about to retire in February 2014. I would like to take out some funds from my Thrift Savings Plan. Should I request an age-based, in-service withdrawal or take a partial withdrawal after I retire? A. Either will count as your single lifetime partial withdrawal. Will the tax cost for the withdrawal be significantly lower if the money is withdrawn in 2013? If so, you should consider taking the withdrawal now. If not, it will not really matter when you take it in 2014. If you need the money now but…
TSP transfer to self-directed IRA0
Q. I am 58½ and a federal employee. Can I take all or part of my Thrift Savings Plan and move it to a self-directed IRA? Or do I have to wait until I am 59½? How much tax will I have to pay on this? A. You may not take an in-service withdrawal for rollover to an IRA until you reach age 59½.
Use TSP funds to pay CSRS redeposit?0
Q. I worked in the Veterans Affairs Department (CSRS) from 1981 until 1985 and then left federal service and withdrew my retirement. I re-entered federal service in 2007 (CSRS Offset) and have enough money in my Thrift Savings Plan to pay the redeposit for my time from 1981 until 1985. Can I switch over the tax-deferred TSP funds to CSRS without having to pay taxes on the transfer? I know I can make an age-based (age 67) in-service withdrawal into a qualified trust or an eligible retirement plan (as defined in IRC 402 (c) (8)). Is CSRS considered an "eligible…
TSP and workers' compensation0
Q. I am a Postal Service employee who has civil service retirement and has been on workers' compensation for several years now and probably will not go back to work. Can I get my Thrift Savings Plan money now as payments or do I have to retire first? Also, how can I add money into my TSP if I can't take it out? A. As I understand it, unless you have separated from covered service, you will be subject to the TSP's restrictions for in-service withdrawals. You should call the Thrift Line to be sure, however.
Re-employment and TSP payments0
Q. If I start taking my retirement now at 62 — FERS, Thrift Savings Plan payments and Social Security — and end up being picked back up at some point in federal service: I understand my FERS benefits would be cut by the amount I make in a new job. What about TSP payments? Are they exempt from penalties of re-employment? A. If you are rehired, your automatic monthly payments will stop and you will be subject to the in-service withdrawal rules.
TSP withdrawal0
Q. When retiring, can I take a large sum of my Thrift Savings Plan out before starting my monthly allotment with the remaining amount? A. Yes, as long as you haven't taken an age-based, in-service withdrawal before you retire.
Age-based in-service withdrawal0
Q. I am 62 years old and still a federal employee (for the next several years). I am thinking of withdrawing $100,000 of the $250,000 I have invested in Thrift Savings Plan. The purpose behind this withdrawal is to save paying federal taxes on this amount. That is, we will be selling an investment property that has $100,000 in "unrealized tax losses" and we should be able to offset the taxes owed on the $100,000 TSP withdrawal with the $100,000 loss from the sale of the property. I am confused by a statement on the TSP website that says if…
Age-based in-service withdrawal0
Q. I am planning on doing an age-based in-service withdrawal of all of my funds prior to retiring. I have a 10 percent contribution going into my Thrift Savings Plan account. Do I need to stop the contributions before withdrawal to make sure no more funds are put into my account after the fact? Or are they automatically turned off once my request is processed? A. You'll need to stop your contributions.

The Town trailer, you guys:
Oof. I had to watch this thing three times before it started looking kind of (KIND OF!) good. I'm putting in the time, but I could use a little help. Where my trailer editors at?! A cops and robbers drama starring Jon Hamm and Dame Jeremy Renner (and Blake Lively recapturing the spirit of her Gossip Girl: Staten Island character) should be an easy sell, even if it was directed by the man who brought you Gone Baby Gone (haha, we know who Ben Affleck is, trailer). Instead we get a somewhat dull, very sprawling, interminable mess. "Cool, I hope the actual movie lags in the middle as much as this trailer does." Oh well. Enjoy the next two years stagnating at the bottom of my Netflix queue, The Town.

Someone sounds like they woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I'm going to go watch Birdie vids to start the day off on a more positive note.
I watched this on mute and it went something like: person in mask -> gun -> pile of money -> John Hamm's face -> Blake Lively's face -> Ben Affleck's face -> pile of money -> gun -> person in mask …
Back and forth forever.
I hate trailers that are all "Here is the entire movie" but still expect my 12 bucks to fill in the blanks.
Ah, Boston. You truly are the Mel Gibson of cities (racist and angry.)
Boston's still got it!
I don't know that much about Boston, but thanks to Ben Affleck, I at least know that from 1997-2010, every single person in the city wears track jackets and chains every day.
"I just want you to know that you are going to die in Federal Prison" is the new "Let's sue him in Federal Court!" is the new "I'm a duly appointed Federal Marshall."
Apparently Ben is not done paying for his J.Lo, Gigli, Jersey Girl, Paycheck, etc downward spiral. But I would say that Gone Baby Gone was pretty good.
Ben Affleck likes them apples.
no thanks.
I thought it looked decent. But I also fantasize about traumatic events that are caused by men who later profess to love me. Also Jon Hamm.
did that trailer just show the plot for the entire movie? I'm pretty sure it did…
that main girl was the star of 'please give' this year, which was the best movie so far. the end.
"From the studio that brought you"? SOLD!
I have never seen an episode of Gossip Girl, but I'm pretty sure Affleck's girl was not Blake Lively. (If I am right, I should be fired for knowing that.) Also it could be the bang-up editing job on this trailer.
Also, I saw this trailer in the theater Tuesday and a woman behind me gasped when Affleck took off the mask and revealed himself as one of the bank robbers. Gasped.
I think the shot of Fenway Park really heightened the drama.
No, but seriously, underwhelming trailer aside, the equation goes:
Jeremy Renner + Rebecca Hall + Chris Cooper + Jon Hammbone = I am there.
I'm happy that Blake Lively is playing someone who is the worst. I feel as if this is her destiny.
No Casey in this one? Ouch, big bro.
I know that when I see a woman crying in the street, my first instinct is to buy her a gin and tonic.
The composer of this score should switch to decaf
Does anyone else remember when Jeremy Renner was on that reality show "The It Factor" on Bravo or something? No? Just me? That's all I ever think about when I see him.
"Were you able to SEE anything through the blindfold?"
"No… I was fucking blindfolded."
"Where my trailer editors at?!"
Yo. What do you need?
Adding Jon Hamm to things doesn't automatically make them good.
Unless it is a me sandwich.
not since Heat have i wanted two actors to be in the same movie but appear in only one scene together

We're developing this Web site to provide a review of the types of shower available for domestic properties. We'll be looking at:
We'll also take a look at shower heads and riser rails, thermostatic shower mixing valves, shower enclosures, shower trays and wet rooms.
But before you start, please read our legal disclaimer
The information provided in these pages is given in good faith and is only designed to provide an overview of the subject.

Though they're not power showers we've decided to include gravity showers partly to provide a benchmark against which to compare power showers and partly because they have significant plus points.
Taking the obvious negative point first, gravity showers generally lack power, providing low flow rates and a weak spray but this isn't always the case. If a gravity shower is sited on the ground floor of a house and the cold tank which supplies water for the shower is in the loft, good shower flow rates can be achieved, particularly if the right shower head, mixing valve and pipe sizes are used.
In hard water areas lime scale is a problem but that applies to power showers too and we'll look at lime scale later.
Cold water in main storage tank
Ball valve
Mains cold water in
Shower head
Shower mixing valve
Stored water in the cylinder is heated by a boiler (gas, oil or solid fuel) or by an immersion heater
Hot water to taps
When the shower mixing valve is opened cold water falls from the cold water storage tank in the loft, passing through the mixing valve and out of the shower head.
At the same time cold water falls from the loft tank into the bottom of the hot water cylinder. It pushes hot water stored there up and out, into the shower mixing valve and out of the shower head.
By adjusting the shower mixing valve you control the temperature and the flow rate or the water coming out of the shower head.
The flow rate of a gravity shower depends on a number of factors. The bigger the distance vertically between the shower head and the level of water in the cold tank, the faster the shower will flow. Extra height adds far more than the extra resistance in the pipes but horizontal pipe runs just add resistance and should be kept as short as possible. In flats where the cold tank can't be sited in a loft, gravity showers give very poor flow rates and in flats where Fortic™ type cylinders are used (these have a
small cold tank built directly onto the top of the hot water cylinder) gravity showers are almost useless.
Flow rate also depends on pipe sizing, the bigger the pipes the better. Different pipe materials can be significant; some of the newer plastic pipes are very smooth bored and have low resistance to water flow. They can also be "cabled" through in continuous lengths with very few joints. All pipe joints add significant resistance and for best results with copper pipes the pipes should be fully de-burred.
The type of shower mixer valve and shower head is also important. Some manufacturers make shower equipment with low flow resistance specifically designed for gravity showers. If the shower spray head can be hand held you should ensure that the shower hose connected to the head has the largest bore possible. The bore of shower hoses varies enormously with some having a bore whose cross-sectional area is 4 or more times larger than others.
Bath/shower mixer taps are not ideal as the bore through them is generally very small so the resistance is high. Some bath/shower mixer taps now suggest a minimum pressure needed to operate the shower adequately. If the box says the mixer needs 1 bar head of pressure you need a water tank about 33 feet (10 metres) above the shower head. With significantly less water pressure, flow rates may not be the only problem; the diverter valve in the mixer taps is often held in the shower position by water pressure and with low pressure it may refuse to stay in the shower position.
To get a good gravity shower everything must be done to maximise flow. A high flow shower head should be used. It may be possible to enlarge the holes in the shower head.
Thermostatic mixer valves limit temperature fluctuations in the shower but they may significantly reduce flow. This poses problems for gravity showers and it's worth considering a manual (non-thermostatic) mixer valve.
The risk is that someone draws off cold water while you're using the shower (eg flushes a loo) and cold to the shower is reduced, scalding you. One way round this is to run an independent cold pipe directly from the cold tank so you get little or no pressure fluctuation on the cold; if someone uses the hot water you may be chilled but not scalded.
Independent hot pipework can be run to prevent this but the hot flow rate also depends on the size of the cold pipe from the cold tank to the bottom of the hot water cylinder. If a large bore pipe is used here, and an independent hot pipe from cylinder to shower, temperature variations can be minimised.
Finally, if flow matters more than looks, use two full-bore lever valves in place of a mixing valve, one on the hot and one on the cold. Tee them together and use a fixed shower head with enlarged holes. It may not be pretty but it will be quiet, reliable, have good flow rates and be much less susceptible to lime scale problems. Back to the Top
Electric showers use mains pressure cold water and don't need a stored hot water supply. The heating unit is contained within a small packaged shower unit attached to the wall. The heating element is several times more powerful than an electric kettle, allowing the water to be heated from cold as it passes over the element.
None of the electric showers currently available can produce flow rates comparable to the other power showers but they can be cheap to install.
A heavy duty electrical cable is required and if an existing electric shower is replaced with a higher powered one (for instance a 10kW shower replacing an 8kW shower) a larger cable may be required. The size of the cable needed also depends on length and where the cable is run; it should not be run in, or under, loft insulation. Specific isolation switches are required and the circuit should be fitted with a trip which senses any leakage of electrical current to earth, either an RCD or an RCBO. The electrical rules are strict and crucial to your safety. You will need to consult an electrician who is qualified under Part P of the Building Regulations.
With electric showers, flow rate is almost always limited by the rate at which the water can be heated. Some showers have a low setting which is hardly ever used (not many of us are looking for cool or cold showers). The setting is left on high and the temperature is controlled by reducing or increasing the amount of water passing through the shower. The shower can only heat at a set rate and the amount of hot water reduces in Winter. This is because the incoming mains cold water is much colder in Winter; it needs more heat to reach the same temperature so you slow the flow rate down to keep it in contact with the heating element for longer.
As a form of energy electricity tends to be more expensive than gas (at least in the UK). Even with gas prices increasing, electricity is generally more than twice the price of gas. This would appear to make electric showers much more expensive to run but the lower flow rate evens things out. Pumped power showers, usually heated by gas, pass much more water. The flow rate of a pumped power shower may be 2 or 3 times higher giving much better showers but may be no cheaper to run if they're used on full.
And the benefits of electric showers? They are often cheaper to install and, not having a pump, they can be much quieter than a pumped power shower. If you don't have an alternative choice of energy they're the only choice anyway. Finally, if you love cold showers you can get brilliant flow rates for almost no cost! Back to the Top
Combination boilers (often called combi boilers or combies) provide hot tap water on demand. They heat the central heating water in much the same way as regular boilers but when a hot tap is opened they switch over to providing hot tap water. With combi boilers there is generally no hot water cylinder. Some larger combination boilers store a limited amount of hot water within the boiler provide a "head-start".
Multipoint water heaters are similar to combination boilers in that they also provide instantaneous hot water. They don't, however, provide heating for the house.
Most combination boilers now fall in the range of 28kW output to 35kW output. They can heat tap water 3-4 times faster than electric showers and much higher flow rates can be achieved, giving much more powerful showers.
Because showers run from combi boilers can have much higher flow rates, running costs can be higher than electric showers even though gas (in the UK) is much cheaper than daytime electricity. Showers run from multipoint water heaters usually cost less than electrically heated showers and the flow rates are much better.
Higher flow rate showers are, however, much more pleasurable and as the water is constantly being heated it never runs out. This can lead to much longer shower times and can be more expensive than running a bath. With gas prices (July 2014) between 4p and 5p for each kWhr, showers from combi boilers cost about £1.40 per hour, just to heat the water. A family taking between them three 15 minute showers per day will spend about £380 per year. Some people are much more frugal. If you can restrict your shower time to only 5 minutes (5 minutes with the water running) you could save £250 of that. Back to the Top
In nearly all geographical areas in the UK mains water is at much higher pressure than low pressure water supplied from a loft tank in a house. In most areas mains pressure is around 2-3 bar though it may be much higher. Three bar is enough to push water to the top of a pipe 30 metres high (100 feet). The stored energy which generates this pressure is called potential energy.
Venturi power showers use the potential energy in mains cold water in a simple and really clever way to draw in low pressure hot water and mix it with the mains cold water. No pump is used to deliver the water to the shower head.
Venturi power showers do not heat the water. They are clever because they can deliver a high flow shower using low pressure hot water stored in a standard hot water cylinder.
It's very hard to find published flow rate figures for venturi power showers, mainly because their flow rates depend on so many variables. Hot water may need to be stored at 65°C and mains cold pressure must be adequate (but not excessive); then it seems that flow rates will vary from 10 litres per minute to maybe 20 litres per minute, depending on the installation. A major factor will be the flow rates of hot water from the storage cylinder. Low resistance check valves should be used (swing check valves) and larger pipes with fewer tight bends. Then, the higher the cold tank (which feeds the hot water cylinder) is above the shower head, the better.
Packaged pumped power showers
Separate power shower pumps
Single impeller shower pumps (can be fitted to pump either hot water or cold water or blended water)
Twin impeller shower pumps (one impeller pumps hot water, one pumps cold but both impellers operate at the same time)
Flow switches
Positive head shower pumps
Negative head shower pumps (shower pumps which can be fitted where the pump is located at or above the level of the shower head)
With all showers, the main running cost involved is the cost of heating the water so the higher the flow rates, the more you pay. Venturi power showers can achieve high flow rates under optimum conditions and, when they do, the running costs will be higher. Remember, it depends on what fuel you use to heat the water in the first place. Daytime electric rates are high! Back to the Top
Pumped power shower flow rates vary widely. The type of shower head and shower hose make some difference but the big difference is in the power of the shower pump. These range from small, relatively cheap pumps bought from DIY outlets, to powerful pumps from specialist manufacturers.
Really powerful shower pumps are capable of emptying the loft tank of cold water faster than it can fill, so beware!
The running costs of pumped power showers varies with the power of the shower pump and the amount of water the pump can deliver through the shower head. The faster the flow rates, the more expensive to run. The other variable is the cost of the fuel used to heat the water for the power shower. Back to the Top
Megaflo™ hot water cylinders
Minimum 22mm equivalent incoming cold water main is recommended
A power shower run from an unvented hot water cylinder can produce phenomenal flow rates many times higher than electric showers or most gravity showers. The high flow rates make it possible to run several jets at the same time (shower head and body jets), depending on the shower equipment used.
Power showers run from unvented hot water cylinders are capable of delivering so much water that they rapidly become more expensive to run than using a bath. In the UK, gas prices are currently about one third of daytime electricity prices but unvented hot water cylinders are rarely heated by electricity. Even so, a power shower run from an unvented hot water cylinder can be very expensive to run if you use its full potential. If you have an all singing, all dancing power shower delivering about 30 litres per minute, you may be tempted to stay in it for longer. A 10 minute shower will cost you about 50p. One shower a day (July 2014 gas prices) will cost you £180 each year! Back to the Top

Albion Mainsflow™ hot water cylinders and thermal stores
Like showers from unvented hot water cylinders, a power shower run from a thermal store cylinder is capable of giving amazing flow rates and capable of running body jets as well as the shower head.
Power showers run from thermal stores or from unvented hot water cylinders, showers run from combi boilers and pumped power showers all have similar running costs for similar flow rates (assuming the same fuel is used to heat the water). The faster the shower flow rate, the more it costs per minute to run.
All power showers can be expensive to run but a power shower run from a thermal store cylinders can deliver hot water so fast that it is easy to make showering more expensive than running a bath.
Environmentally too, the cost of running very high flow rate showers may become unacceptable over the next few years.
Stringent safety regulations apply to pressurized hot water storage of over 15 litres. These storage cylinders and their controls must not be modified in any way not specified by the manufacturers. See Approved Document G, G3
Multipoint water heaters are less powerful with an output of up to 24kW so the shower flow rates you can achieve are lower but they are still 2-3 times better than electric showers.
With showers run from combination boilers or multipoint water heaters however, temperature fluctuations can occur if hot water is drawn off from another point served by the appliance. This effect is limited by fitting a thermostatic shower mixing valve and this is recommended.
We recently came across a problem using an Aqualisa Quartz digital shower with an older combi boiler. Most newer combination boilers modulate the flame as the water flow rate through the boiler is slowed down or speeded up. Some older combi boilers do not have modulating gas valves, they simply shut the burner down when the flow rate decreases more than a certain amount (or the water temperature rises) and fire up again when the flow rate increases (or the water temperature reduces). This may make them incompatible with shower units which modulate the amount of hot water being drawn from the boiler.
Before fitting an Aqualisa digital shower (or any similar digital shower) to a hot water system using a combi boiler, talk to your installer or to Aqualisa technical. They should be able to tell you what will or won't work. Back to the Top

Soldiers from the 82nd Airborne Division unload relief supplies from a Navy helicopter in Port-au-Prince.
18 January 2010
Washington The security situation in Port-au-Prince and the outlying areas is not perfect, though the Haitian police and a U.N. security force are performing reasonably well after sustaining losses of personnel in the earthquake that struck January 12, U.S. Ambassador Kenneth Merten said in an interview January 18 from the embassy.
Merten, in an NBC News interview, said the Haitian police are in charge of protecting the Haitian people, keeping law and order here. But as I said, their capabilities are limited. They are being supported by a U.N. force, the U.N. Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH).
Theyve been doing an excellent job. I want to particularly salute the Brazilian troops who are here, whove done a fabulous job, Merten said. American troops are standing by in cases where neither the Haitian police nor the U.N. troops can provide security. In most cases, the Haitian police and the U.N. forces have been able to handle the situation.
Army Lieutenant General Ken Keen, the deputy commander of the U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) who happened to be in Port-au-Prince at the time of the earthquake and is the coordinator of operations there, said in an interview January 17 that the principal purpose of U.S. military forces in Haiti is to provide humanitarian assistance, but the security component is going to be an increasing part of that. We do need, obviously, a safe and secure environment to continue and do the best we can with the humanitarian assistance.
While there has been some unrest, looting and strife in a few instances, Merten said, overall relief efforts have been moving reasonably well. There clearly have been a few instances where people are
tired and desperate, and they are reacting in
that fashion when the food and water appear.
Merten said it is impossible at the moment to put a price on the damage. He said there are an incredible number of people left homeless, including many U.S. embassy staff.
Its an awful situation, he said. And theyre going to be starting just about from zero in Port-au-Prince.
By January 17 the United States had sent 5,800 military personnel to Haiti, either on the ground or stationed on U.S. Navy and Coast Guard ships in and around the island nation, the White House said.
Approximately 7,500 additional military personnel are expected to arrive by January 18, the White House statement added.
Haitian President René Préval said U.S. troops were being asked to help the U.N. security force keep order while relief efforts are continuing, and to assist his overstretched police force. SOUTHCOM spokesman Jose Ruiz told reporters that the goal is to have about 10,000 U.S. troops in the area participating in the dual mission of humanitarian assistance and security assistance.
Alain Le Roy, the U.N. peacekeeping chief, told reporters that the U.N. Security Council would be asked on January 18 to approve increasing the number of U.N. troops and police in Haiti by an additional 1,250 personnel.
In one instance near a former country club and golf course estate, a group of U.S. Army soldiers from the 82nd Airborne Division set up a makeshift operating base near where about 50,000 Haitians had set up a camp. Lieutenant Colonel Mike Foster told reporters that when he and his men first tried to enter the camp and distribute relief supplies, they were nearly overrun by the desperate earthquake survivors. He and his men withdrew to their base camp. Food and water could not be distributed in the camp in that situation.
Shortly after that, several Haitian volunteers came forward to help organize food distribution and help in keeping order inside the camp, Foster said, and then the distribution process moved ahead.
They were the ones who got all of the kids up the hill and brought them first, not us, Foster said. I think thats an enormously positive step. The handful of times you may have seen a guy or two want to get rowdy, they policed those guys up themselves. I think that is very, very important to how this continues to flow, Foster said, according to a news report from the American Forces Press Service.
Help save lives in Haiti: Visit the White House Web site for options. The International Committee of the Red Cross provides a service to help people find loved ones and the State Department has a Person Finder where people can post information about persons missing in Haiti.

We Reminisce: Kemba Walker's 2011 NCAA Tournament Run
I was watching Connecticut play Memphis last Thursday night on ESPN in the American Athletic Conference Quarterfinals and I heard one of the announcers say there is not one individual in UConn's history whose team leaned on him more during a season than current senior guard Shabazz Napier. Napier won the league's player of the year honors and has been tremendous this year, but I cannot agree with the statement. What Kemba Walker accomplished during the 2011 college basketball season was truly remarkable and fun to watch. Kemba was the unquestionable leader for the Huskies and the main reason why they won the NCAA championship in 2011. Walker took young players such as Napier and Jeremy Lamb under his wing during the season and put on one of the best performances throughout the month of March that I have ever seen. Read More »
