The MLS All-Star Game is meant to be a celebration of the league. The game should be a showcase of the talent that Major League Soccer has to offer, and of how far the sport has come in this country. The current "MLS vs. the World" format has failed at this objective. Four times in the past five years the MLS All-Stars have failed to win the game, allowing a single foreign team to topple the best an entire league has to offer. While there are excuses to be made, the message sent by these failures is damaging to the league's image and success.
How can we recruit the world's top talents if they see MLS as a joke? How do we convince American soccer fans who ignore MLS to change their opinions when they see the All-Stars loose to the very European teams that they support? Allowing the All-Stars to lose to foreign opposition doesn't showcase the league, it damages it.
An East vs. West All-Star format would be a real showcase. There would be a winner and a looser, but that looser would never be the league. Instead of throwing 20 guys who have trained together only once on the field against a team that is still in preseason, the contest would be between two teams on level footing. It would mean those Inactive All-Stars who get the bonuses but don't take the field would all have an opportunity to play.
Until 2002 the MLS All-Star Game did use the East vs. West format. The league scraped that traditional format for a few reasons, partially because MLS could not throw together two adequate defenses to handle the offensive ability that featured in the game. This led to an average of 9.33 goals per game. Now, more than a decade later, with the talent that this league has to offer, lack of defensive ability can no longer be an argument against the East vs. West format.
We are calling on American and Canadian soccer fans to sign this petition and support the movement to bring back the East vs. West All-Star Game format. This change will help to attract more American fans to MLS, improve the quality of the All-Star Game, and forever do away with the embarrassment of watching our league lose to a foreign team.

The officers proceeded on foot north on the west sidewalk of Shatto Place and noted Sandoval was now standing in front of the apartment building located at 673 South Shatto Place. As the officers attempted to question Sandoval, he responded by striking one of the officers on the upper body with his fist and fled on foot southbound.
The officers pursued Sandoval and subsequently detained him as he attempted to scale a chain link fence. At that time, Sandoval violently resisted by biting and striking the officers. During the altercation, Sandoval grasped one of the officers' holstered pistol. The other officer, upon hearing his partner state that Sandoval had a hold of his pistol and believing his partner was about to be disarmed, fired one round at Sandoval, striking him on the left hip. Sandoval was taken into custody with further incident and was transported to a local hospital where he underwent surgery for a single gunshot wound. Sandoval was listed in stable condition.
Sandoval was arrested for Assault with a Deadly Weapon on a Police Officer. His bail was set at $50,000.00.
Both officers were transported to a local hospital for treatment. After treatment for minor injuries sustained during the altercation, both officers were released.
The investigation into this incident is ongoing and is being conducted by the Department's Critical Incident Investigation Division. Investigators assigned to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office are conducting a concurrent investigation.
This press release was prepared by Public Information Officer Jason Lee, Media Relations Section, 213-485-3586.

BIHS membership list debate
During a tense discussion that re-opened wounds about issues unresolved from last year, Block Island Health Services (BIHS) board members debated whether its membership list should be made available to members themselves and to candidates running for the board.
Currently, the BIHS board of directors cannot access its own dues-paying membership list, and neither can candidates running for the board. The list was compiled by BIHS Secretary Kay Lewis in 2012. Executive Director Barbara Baldwin now manages the list and is the only person to have access. It is not Baldwin's decision as to who can and cannot have access to the list.
It was BIHS Board member Bill McCombe who motioned that board members be granted access to the membership list.
"I don't understand why would you still feel we shouldn't know who our members are," said McCombe at the April 22 meeting. "This cloak of secrecy is beyond me."
At first, there was silence among the BIHS board, and none seemed willing to second the motion.
Eventually, Sue Hagedorn seconded it, saying, "I really appreciate that finally the elephant that's in the room, we're kind of dealing with it now."
Other members expressed their reason for hesitating on McCombe's motion.
"There are at least two members of the board who are on a seat to be re-elected," said BIHS board member Bob Fallon. "To give them access to that list, and not to give access to the four other individuals who are not [current board] members and are running, I don't think is correct."
McCombe said his request to see the board members was not tied to the election — he wanted to know the demographics of BIHS members in order to find out how to better recruit new members.
"It's a pay-to-vote system right now, and you don't know who is a member and who isn't," said Bill McCombe. "When the people who are elected to represent them don't know, there's something wrong."
McCombe's motion failed by a 3-6 vote. The ayes were: Hagedorn, Fallon and McCombe. The nayes were: Lewis, President Pam Hinthorn, Judith Cyronak, Cindy Baute and Cookie Lenoci.
"My resistance to all of this is how political it's become, that we're talking about a bigger agenda," said Hagedorn. "A membership list — I agree that it should be public. But right now, it sounds like it's going to be used in a political campaign."
The issue will be brought up at a future subcommittee meeting.
Who is a BIHS member
The issue of who is a member has also become part of this year's board elections.
BIHS members are those who have paid dues to the Medical Center, and they are allowed to vote for board members in elections. BIHS bylaws do not specify if the board or the public is allowed to see the membership list.
BIHS is preparing for its annual membership election — there are six candidates running for three seats, and results will be announced on June 9. Several candidates, including Peter Saxon and Bruce Montgomery, have expressed interest in obtaining the membership list so they could campaign and send targeted mailings.
"I'm running for election trying to woo a very specific number of people," said Bruce Montgomery, a candidate running for the BIHS election. "What can I do to reach the people who may vote for me to become a member of this board?"
Board member Bob Fallon, who joined the meeting by phone, made a motion that would allow BIHS members access to the membership list. The list would not include the amount given by any person or the name of any person who had requested their name not be disclosed.
The board approved Fallon's motion and voted to send it to the board's Membership Committee for discussion.
"I would be very happy to bring this to the membership committee when we're about to have a meeting," said Secretary Kay Lewis, also the membership committee chair. She did not give any indication about when the next meeting would be — or if it would be before the June 9 meeting.
Later on, Lewis read a statement from a person who asked that their name not be shared. "Do not give, sell or anyway transmit or reveal my name," Lewis read from the person's request.
"I think there is another element in the room in addition to the elections," said Board Member Judith Cyronak. "In the past, membership in BIHS was not controversial at all. In the past year, there has been controversy. There may be people who joined who actually don't want their neighbors to know. It is a controversial issue."
The controversy stems from multiple events that happened last year. One of these events occurred last July when the BIHS board announced that Executive Director Monty Stover had resigned from that position. Stover later wrote a letter to the B.I. Times claiming his resignation was not voluntary. Also within the past year, the Medical Center had a budget shortfall that required the board to dip significantly into its endowment.
Stover said that, when he was director, he had been requested to provide a membership list to the board members. "I think it's false to say that the list was never provided. I think it was," he said. Lewis disagreed with him. "This is ancient history. I didn't ever have a list," she said.
"It seems to me like it's getting to be clandestine," said island resident Mary Donnelly, R.N., who has recently retired as the island's state nurse. "If [someone] doesn't agree with me that doesn't mean we're not friends. We still have our opinions and I think that's what makes a good strong organization."
Board members Ken Lacoste and Shannon Morgan were absent. Pete Tweedy left the meeting early.
My wife and I have been contributing to the BIHS for years, maybe decades. I don't know if that makes us members. But if I am a member I definitely want the Board of Directors to have access to my name and address for purposes consistent with the charter of the BIHS and only for purposes consistent with the Charter of the BIHS. the Board and or membership committee of any Not for Profit can hardly expect to get their job done if their membership is only in the hands of only one individual, with no oversight and no management.
The BIHS is a community service providing health care for each and every one of us. It cannot be interacted with like a fiefdom of one or two individuals. We, our families, all have too much at stake.

Carved Labradorite Pendant of Medusa
SOLDItem 11189
Labradorite is known for its peacock blue iridescence within a gray green stone. In the later 19th century, it was quarried in Labrador in Canada and the finest examples flash with true brilliance. It has also been found in the Ukraine and Finland. The Victorian often used small specimens and carved them into tiny monkey heads, bird forms and animals mostly for use in stickpins or brooches. Rarely do we see larger examples.
Yes here was have a magnificent pendant of three separate pieces of labradorite. Circa 1880, the topmost pieces is intricately carved in the likeness of Medusa with faceted ruby eyes. Her hair coils about her head with the snakes finely rendered. This sits atop a polished thick oval of labradorite. Even the pendant bale is embellished with another shield shape example. At times the stone lies dormant with its mysterious gray green tones, yet move it, let it catch the light and it literally glows within with an almost magical electric blue.
Condition: Excellent.
Measures: 2 3/8 inches long in total(6 cm); 1 3/4 inches for the length of the oval (4.4 cm); it is 1 5/16 inches wide at the widest ((3.4 cm) and 3/4 inches deep at the deepest (1.7 cm). Weight of 25.7 grams.
Date: Circa 1880 and most likely English in origin.

Volunteers in the Cape Town B program had the opportunity to visit Denis Goldberg, a native South African who was one of the leading white activist during the struggle against apartheid. He helped create the College of Democrats and allied the organization with the African National Congress, and later became a technical officer for Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK).
He was arrested in 1963, along with seven other comrades, including Nelson Mandela and Water Sisulu and sentenced to life imprisonment in 1964 after the famous Rivonia Trial. Goldberg was released in 1985, after 22 years in prison and became a spokesperson for the ANC; he represented the organization at the Anti- Apartheid Committee of the United Nations.
Goldberg invited OHS volunteers to his home in Hout Bay, where he shared stories and lessons from years of battling injustice. When asked if he had any advice for young activists, Goldberg reclined back in his chair, paused and said, "Never be patronizing, respect is what's important. [Respect] its a way of relating to people. People should relate on a level of conscious equality."
Additional quotes from the evening:
"Freedom doesn't fall from trees. Freedom is something people struggle for."
"Once you understand prejudice you can't accept it. How can you let prejudice undermine your view of people?"
"I can't accept injustice anywhere, just because my parents were this, that, or the other."
"We can't go on talking about the struggle, we have to do something else."
"There's nothing soft in prison."
"He (Mandela) was a leader amongst other great leaders."
"I grew up in a country where religion was a part of oppression."
"Once people can read and write you can't stop them from thinking."
"If we could fight racism around the world, why would we tolerate it in South Africa?"
"Respect is the lubrication of society, you must respect everyone."

Race an issue with approval of Montevallo trustee
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Race became an issue when the Alabama Senate approved Secretary of State Beth Chapman to replace state Sen. Roger Smitherman as a University of Montevallo trustee.
Republican Gov. Robert Bentley selected the Republican secretary of state to succeed the Democratic senator from Birmingham, and the Senate agreed Wednesday in a 21-10 vote that split along party lines.
Smitherman, who is black, says his replacement leaves only one black on the 15-member board of trustees. He says it looks like Alabama is going back to segregation.
The Senate's Republican leader, President Pro Tem Del Marsh, says Chapman has done a great job in her two terms as secretary of state and will do the same as a trustee.
The Senate's vote makes Chapman's selection official.

Industry Woes Will Clip JetBlue Earnings
JetBlue Airways (JBLU) is expected to offer airline investors a breather from the recent flurry of industry losses when it reports its third-quarter results before the opening bell Thursday.
The New York-based airline, which has a history of profitability, is expected to earn $14 million, or 10 cents a share, on revenue of $333.5 million, based on the consensus estimate of Thomson First Call. The company recorded earnings of $29 million, or 39 cents a share, on revenue of $273.6 million in the third quarter of 2003.
The analyst consensus already accounts, at least to some degree, for the grim quarter U.S. airlines had. Network and low-cost carriers alike watched fuel costs soar, capacity surge and price competition erode revenue. Still, given how other airlines have missed estimates, JetBlue may disappoint.
"I wouldn't be surprised if they missed the Wall Street consensus," said Jim Corridore, equity analyst at Standard & Poor's, who has a 12-cent EPS estimate for the airline's third quarter. (Standard & Poor's does not do or seek to do business with the companies its equity analysts cover.)Corridore noted JetBlue was exposed to the hurricanes that ravaged Florida and parts of the Southeast, and also saw "brutal" price competition on its Florida and transcontinental routes, factors that might have had a bigger impact on JetBlue than originally thought. In early September, the company issued a profit warning. "The third quarter has proven challenging as a result of a weak yield environment in late August and September; the effects of two hurricanes in Florida; higher-than-expected fuel prices; and weak near-term bookings due to both adverse conditions in Florida and current concerns of a possible new hurricane," David Neeleman, JetBlue's CEO, said in a statement. "While we continue to expect to report a solidly profitable third quarter, we now anticipate that earnings will be significantly lower than our previous estimates."

Merry Mom Makeovers
See how three deserving readers got an elegant, party-ready look for the holiday season
By Brian Underwood
Yolanda Schardt, 46
Breast Cancer Survivor
Oxnard, CA
In early 2010, Yolanda Schardt received the news every woman dreads: After finding something suspicious during a routine mammogram, her doctor confirmed that she had breast cancer. When I heard my doctors words, I suddenly became a scared little girl again. My first question was, Am I going to die? While her diagnosis was life-shattering enough, Yolanda was also confronting other setbacks: Her husband, Andy, had recently lost his job, leaving Yolanda to support the family, which includes her two sons, Robert, 10, and Jakob, 8, all on her own. It was a tough time, but I had a lot of support from friends, family and colleagues, says the tax manager for outerwear company Patagonia. Keeping busy at the office and at home helped.
At first, Yolanda, one of the more than 270,000 American women diagnosed with breast cancer each year, was hopeful that her stage II cancer would only require radiation. But she soon learned that shed have to undergo chemotherapy and surgeryand made the painful decision to have a double mastectomy. The surgery was easy, its the mental part that was hard, she explains. I cried a lotI woke up crying. Now, Yolandas in a much better place. She just completed the last of her reconstructive surgeries in March and though she admits shell always be fearful her cancer will return, the diagnosis has changed her life in many positive ways. I used to be more worried that if I took time off from work around the holidays, Id fall behind, she says. But you never know what next Christmas will bring, so I make it a point to spend as much time as possible celebrating with the people I love.
Her New Look
Yolanda made the mistake that many women make when growing out their hair: not cutting it at all. The problem? Hair thats all one length has little shape or movement. Fekkai stylist Pierre D. Pappalardo cut face-framing layers into Yolandas hair. They give her curls movement without Yolanda having to lose much length, he explains. Next, colorists added a clear glaze to make her hair shinier. Yolandas near-flawless skin required just a touch of strategically applied concealer to mask tiny imperfections. Geller added a swirl of shimmering peach blush over Yolandas cheekbones to attract light and give her face an instant lift. More confident thanks to her newly reconstructed breasts, Yolanda is no longer shy about highlighting this areaa silky lilac top with dramatic ruffles hits the right note.

Jock Itch Picture 1
Picture 1 shows the early stages of a fungal infection. The skin has raised edges that are very distinct.
Jock Itch Picture 2
In the Picture 2 we can see small red rashes that are sporadic in nature. Eventually within a few weeks these small rashes will get bigger and become itchy causing the sufferer to scratch the area making matters worse.
2. Advanced stages of jock itch
Jock Itch Picture 3
In Picture 3 we see the sufferer has a fungal infection at an advanced stage. It looks really bad because the skin is inflamed due to the scratching.
Jock Itch Picture 4
In Picture 4 the sufferer appears to be at the end of a flare-up cycle where his infected skin has dried out and is starting to slowly heal.
3. Skin discoloration
Jock Itch Picture 5
In Pictures 5 and 6 there is noticeable skin discoloration. This is a result of prolonged scratching and use of antifungal creams over a period of time. Once the fungal infection has been cured, the skin will eventually repair itself and the discoloration and marking will disappear.

- 100g butter or margarine
- 175g soft light brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 4 tablespoons golden syrup
1. Put the flour, ginger and soda into a bowl and rub in the butter
2. Add sugar and stir in the syrup and egg to make a firm dough
3. Roll out to about 5mm thick and cut out your gingerbread men. If you don't have a gingerbread man cutter then use whatever you have - stars and hearts are just as tasty
4. Bake at 190'C/Gas 5 on greased baking trays (spaced out, as they will spread) for 10-15 mins until golden brown
5. Leave to firm up for a couple of minutes before placing on a wire rack to cook
6. Once cooled, decorate with icing

Top tip
Refigerate the uncooked, cut biscuit shapes on a baking tray prior to cooking. About 15 minutes in the fridge is long enough to ensure your gingerbread biscuits retain their shape during baking and don't spread out too much.
Swap the ginger for cinnamon or a few drops of vanilla essence if you don't like ginger. Swap golden syrup for treacle, if preferred.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Los Angeles Lakers coach Mike D'Antoni has resigned after less than two seasons on the job.
Lakers spokesman John Black confirmed D'Antoni's resignation Wednesday night.
D'Antoni went 67-87 after taking over the Lakers early in the 2012-13 season, replacing the fired Mike Brown.
The injury-plagued Lakers were 27-55 this season, their worst campaign in more than 50 years. Los Angeles missed the playoffs for only the third time in 38 years.
D'Antoni had one year left on his contract, but wanted the Lakers to pick up his option year for 2015-16 to have any chance of success. The Lakers apparently refused, leading to D'Antoni's resignation.
D'Antoni also coached the Phoenix Suns and the New York Knicks.

By some strange and fortunate coincidence, I was sitting next to Claudia Lehmann from Maz&Movies in Berlin last week, when we both were guest at the "Enchanted"-dinner in Munich. We started to smalltalk and she told me , that she is busy preparing the release of a DVD containing the ENTIRE work of Loriot. ENTIRE, mind you !!! That means, that it will not only contain the alltowellknown sketches but also his early work, the CARTOON-TV-series for example, in which he introduced other peoples work, several commercials and the Wum & Wendelin-sketches etc,etc,etc.
I was so hoping for this to be available some day, but I had little to no hope, that it would finally happen. Well, I was wrong. Here it is:

GREENSBORO – A hearing for state Rep. Larry Womble was continued Wednesday.
The Forsyth County Democrat was scheduled to make a court appearance in connection with charges from a deadly wreck in Decemeber. He's charged with misdemeanor death by motor vehicle in the accident on Reynolds Park Road that killed David Carmichael of Winston-Salem.
The 70-year-old Womble was critically injured in the accident.
Toxicology reports show Carmichael had a blood alcohol level three times the legal limit. Womble had no alcohol in his system but police say he did cross the center line, causing the accident.
Since the accident, Womble has announced he would not seek re-election.
The hearing has been rescheduled for November.

Out of 26 million Texans, you may have an idea to change the world. You may have had several ideas to change the world. But only a tiny minority of you pushed through the U.S. Patent office from application to successful patent. We've seen Texans change the world many times over. Jack Kilby did it with Texas Instruments in 1958 with the integrated circuit, causing the start of the digital revolution, which, in part, is why you can read these words over your electronic device.
Over the last few years, Texas Business has brought its feature: Texas Business Patent of the Day. This list is of the ones that were either extremely clever, odd or strange. One thing becomes apparent from these patents and the patent that runs daily in Texas Business—Texans have a unique mind set.
Though the history of the Corn Dog is disputed, the State Fair of Texas claims to have introduced the Corny Dog sometime between 1938 and 1942. As a paean to that invention that now sits in the freezer section of every grocery store in the southwest, here are the fried foods the State Fair of Texas has introduced, or tried to introduce, in the last seven years.
Dead Texas musicians live on every time you hear their songs. Their songs play everywhere, so the dead Texas musicians appear to be immortal. Here's the short list.
Don't get caught up with John Wayne religion. For one thing, he's not Texan. He's in some fine movies involving Texas, most notably The Searchers, but none of his movies can make the best cut of Texas movies. Here's the short list.
Tourist Traps. Some are absurdly large. All are monuments to the bizarre notions of the human spirit.
The short simple list.
Nothing to agonize over. Simply the best.
Texas Business reports: DALLAS—Lockheed Martin won a $65 million contract from the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps to continue developing the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) through the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) phase.
The Lockheed Martin team developed a JLTV model already proven in government testing to create its EMD design. The production-enhanced JLTV maintains the proven force protection, mobility, transportability and reliability of the earlier Technology Demonstration (TD) model, while significantly reducing weight and cost. The team's JLTV design reflects improvements from more than 160,000 combined testing miles.
"We are extremely pleased to announce the selection of the Lockheed Martin JLTV design as one of three mature vehicles selected to enter the Engineering and Manufacturing Development Phase of the JLTV Program," said Col. David Bassett, project manager at the JLTV Joint Program Office, in a prepared statement. "We are confident that the Lockheed Martin team, along with the other two selected vehicles, are ready to demonstrate their ability to meet and exceed our requirements, deliver vehicles on schedule, and achieve the manufacturing and sustainment costs necessary to compete effectively for production."
Formed in 2005, the Lockheed Martin-led JLTV team includes tactical wheeled vehicles expertise at BAE Systems in Sealy, Texas, which is an industry leader in advanced armor solutions and high volume assembly. The team also includes numerous Tier 1 suppliers, including: Allison Transmission, Cummins Engine, L3 Combat Propulsion Systems, Meritor Defense, Robert Bosch LLC and Vehma International of America.
"We've had a consistent team since day one, and this win highlights the merits of a stable, proven design," said Scott Greene, vice president of ground vehicles at Lockheed Martin's Missiles and Fire Control business, in a statement. "Two JLTVs have been produced on an active manufacturing line, so we are already well prepared for rapid production and testing."
The firm fixed-price contract has a 27-month performance period with deliveries of 22 vehicles taking place within 12 to 14 months. Primary variants with companion trailers include the utility carrier and shelter (JLTV-UTL), a two-seat prime mover with an open bed; and the general-purpose vehicle (JLTV-GP), which is a four-seater that will carry troops, ammunition and small supplies.
Lockheed Martin's JLTV EMD vehicles are more affordable than their predecessors, offering lower-cost materials with higher fuel efficiency and low logistical support costs. The vehicles offer enhanced crew safety based upon government tests that show the design meets the high blast-protection standards, with margin, of many existing mine-resistant vehicles serving in combat today. Additionally, the Lockheed Martin team shaved hundreds of pounds off the TD design, which was already proven in helicopter lift tests.
The Texas News Scrawl is a handy reference to stories Texas Business recommends from other news sources. Some of the stories that Texas Business currently suggests include: Texas regulators not aware of potential CFTC manipulation probe, Irving spends incentive dollars to lure two corporate headquarters and almost 2,000 jobs; Hotels, restaurant operators prep for record Final Four; Star-Telegram presses roll one last time; Robert Rodriguez breathes new life into an old vampire favorite; ClubCorp buys Prestonwood Country Club in Dallas and Plano; Office Depot overcharged Dallas by up to $3.6 million, city auditor finds; Texas power market monitor resigns amid unresolved reform debate; and more.

Rookie Blue Season Finale Review: Andy to the Rescue?by Christine Orlando at . Comments
It was the season finale of Rookie Blue and, wow, "God's Good Grace" sure shook things up at Division 15.
Was anyone else as continually suspicious of new officer Pete as I was? He was just too eager and into everyone's business. Of course, I could've just been paranoid. He is a rookie after all.
I was really disappointed in Chris when he opened his big mouth and told Pete about Andy's personal business. Although I didn't think he was trying to be mean, I just think there are moments when Chris isn't very bright.
I did appreciate the look Dov shot him, though. I was pretty sure Epstein wanted to give him a smack and, heck, I wouldn't blame him.
It was certainly apropos that Luke was the one to ask who Candace was. Thankfully, Jerry ignored the question until they stepped outside, but Luke looked sucker punched when he told him it was Andy. Hey, he can be upset but it's not like Andy cheated on him. She just moved on.
Gail was back to true form in this episode and I absolutely loved it. How much fun was her conversation with Detective Armstrong? Abrasive, blunt, and straight to the point, that's when Gail really shines.
And did anyone else think Gail was setting her sights on Luke? Now there's a pairing I hadn't considered. Chris was the one who dumped her Could Luke be a rebound on the way back to Dov or do you think these two have any lasting potential?
Am I the only one who felt like Noelle and Frank were moving way too fast? Didn't they just have a first date? Now it's baby makes three?!? I'm all for seeing them happy, I just felt like we've skipped a couple of steps on the way there.
So much for God's Good Grace. Swarek was getting his ass kicked by Brennan. Nothing like a little makeshift waterboarding to get someone's attention.
As vicious as Brennan was, the stories about his little girl broke my heart. Of course Sam was right. It was his own past that caught up with him and his family paid the price.
I was glad Swarek got his face time with Boyd at the end, but I really wanted to see the dirty detective hauled out in cuffs for covering up a murder and putting Swarek's life on the line. He surely would've pinned it all on Andy if Sam hadn't survived.
It bothered me a little that we didn't get a celebratory hug between Sam and Andy when Sam was rescued but I guess that would have been inappropriate with all of their fellow officers around.
I wish we could have seen Andy at least get in the car with Sam, but him asking her to come and try out being normal with him will have to satisfy me until next summer. To find out what normal means for Sam and Andy, we'll all have to wait and see.

i feel sad tat d series has come to an end n love to c tat andy was dating swarek near d end of d series n not luke coz swarek n andy makes a good pair n love to c dem back in d next series cant wait for d next series n plz keep swarek n andy together
On June 23
a 43 year old woman addicted to rookie blue.sundays cant come round quick enough .i even record the 9pm programme,includes all dialogue.
great script,love andys character ,glad with sam (bit of rough)works well 2gether.far 2 many adverts in the programme.the finale i was screaming at tv 2 get story back on .when is series 3 on?
This show is brill cant wait till new seris starts thought the fianle wos good too
Oops, forgot to mention - Sam Swarek is solid! He's the kind of cop most guys would want their daughter to marry, not the pimpish Luke. The loyal hero with average looks should win Andy - not the flashy egomaniac Luke.
By the way, please tell Missy she won my heart... I'm now a big fan. However, since I'm not the stalking type of guy please tell Missy that if she's into old retired cops - I'll be here in Florida waiting for her...
Please keep Rookie Blue going - this is a great series! Andy is much like a young cop that worked for me in South Boston (Boston, Ma) in the late 90's - and had similar love and other issues, but she was a great young cop. Rookie Blue reminds me of so many young cops and my own rookie years, this show is well acted and has a good story line.
By the way, if I had a vote on story lines - Luke is cool, but too cool. I've know detectives like him that were all looks and ego - but the most dangerous thing they did in the line of fire was trip over their feet running to see a glimpse of themselves in a mirror when the real cops ran toward the gunshots and possible death. Good cops react to the "fight or flee" impulse by running toward the trouble, not away like the 95% of normal people that would not make good cops.
And - Dov is better off love-denied regarding GAil than being a back-stabbing pal. I couldn't stand Gail at first, but she also reminds me a lot of a young officer from Southie - first impressions were poor but the young lady turned out to be a great cop too.
Good Luck with Rookie Blue - KEEP IT GOING, PLEASE!
I don't like how the show is based on andy..it shud focus on all the characters ...all I want is dov gail chris love triangle..I don't mind a little game wif luke just to make dov jealous and charlotte is awesome!
Love the second series saw the Luke saga coming, but Andy dignified as usual I would have bopped him one. Swaaaaaarek wow - those eyes. Delighted to hear 3rd series on its way
Absolutely love this show! The chemistry between Sam and andy is electric! I hope they get to stay together next season - I could watch this show every day! Great writing and great cast of characters. Love Oliver, Gail and Eppstein in particular.

Sidewalk chalk is allowed
In the middle of my interview with Rodney and Sheila Cobb, there was a knock on the door. Sheila and I kept chatting while Rodney answered it. He came back a moment later, rolling his eyes. "Guess what that was about," he said with forced smile.
"The sidewalk chalk," Sheila said, shaking her head.
She turned to me. "Can you believe it?" she asked. "Our girls aren't allowed to draw on the sidewalk with chalk. The landlady says it's 'graffiti.'"
I had seen the "offensive" drawing in question when I'd walked up. A blue chalk woman—I'd commented to Steffan, the photographer traveling with me: "How cute!"
The "no sidewalk chalk allowed" rule is among many restrictions at their current residence in Monroe, Mich. There is also no ball playing allowed; no guest parking without prior approval; very specific rules about how residents can position their grills on their back patios; only white curtains can be hung.
These rules are among the many reasons Rodney and Sheila are anxious to own their own home and leave landlords behind. They are also excited about investing in something permanent rather than "throwing money away on rent." And they can't wait for more privacy—and more quiet—than they have in their current apartment quarters, where they can hear everything going on next door through the paper-thin walls.
There will be more privacy within their home, too. The Cobbs' current home has only two bedrooms—their three daughters share one. Their new home will have four bedrooms, so everyone can have some space. Eight-year-old Dasia is ecstatic, Sheila says: "She keeps telling me, 'It's going to be my own room, and Aleeya [her 5-year-old sister] can't touch my stuff!"
Sisterly squabbles aside, the Cobbs exude the essence of a loving family. As I conduct my interview, Rodney and Sheila alternately play with their youngest daughter, Jamarea, who just turned 1. Her happy-baby smiles and giggles are too much for Steffan to resist; he photographs while I ask questions and take notes. The Cobbs graciously pose and answer. It's like having a visit with old friends.
But you can tell that the Cobbs are the kind of people who make friends easily. They're eager to meet the volunteers who are going to help them build their house and the other four houses being blitz built during the Jimmy Carter Work Project week in June. "We're just very grateful—you're giving up your own time," Rodney says. "Owning your own home makes dreams come true; [volunteers] make it possible."
Sheila adds, "I'm so excited I just want to take off running through the yard and do flips—but that might be against the landlady's rules!"
We all laugh as we wrap up the interview. Rodney has to get ready for work. Recently home from Iraq with the Navy, he now works with the Transportation Security Administration at the Detroit airport. Jamarea is hungry. Steffan and I have other appointments to keep anyway….
But I can't wait to visit their new house and bring a housewarming gift: sidewalk chalk.
—Leigh Powell, Editorial Manager, Habitat for Humanity International, based on an April 2005 interview

Will This Price Target Decrease Hurt Workday (WDAY) Stock Today? (Update)
Update (9:38 a.m.): Updated with Wednesday market open information.
The stock was up 3.93% to $85.36 at 9:37 a.m. on Wednesday.
Must Read: Warren Buffett's 25 Favorite Stocks
STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more.---------- Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates WORKDAY INC as a "sell" with a ratings score of D+. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate WORKDAY INC (WDAY) a SELL. This is driven by some concerns, which we believe should have a greater impact than any strengths, and could make it more difficult for investors to achieve positive results compared to most of the stocks we cover. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its deteriorating net income and feeble growth in its earnings per share." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Software industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 80.9% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from -$30.94 million to -$55.98 million.
- WORKDAY INC has experienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. The company has reported a trend of declining earnings per share over the past year. However, the consensus estimate suggests that this trend should reverse in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, WORKDAY INC reported poor results of -$1.00 versus -$0.45 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings (-$0.56 versus -$1.00).
- Compared to where it was a year ago, the stock is now trading at a higher level, and has traded in line with the S&P 500. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, we do not believe this stock offers ample reward opportunity to compensate for the risks, despite the fact that it rose over the past year.
- Despite currently having a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.41, it is higher than that of the industry average, inferring that management of debt levels may need to be evaluated further. Even though the debt-to-equity ratio shows mixed results, the company's quick ratio of 4.69 is very high and demonstrates very strong liquidity.
- Compared to other companies in the Software industry and the overall market, WORKDAY INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.

Technology Report
Technology Fusion
For the first time, consumer electronics (CE) engineers can use both types of NAND flash memory in a single device.
Flex-OneNAND is a complex memory solution that employs both SLC and MLC NAND technologies. According to Samsung, the technology signifies the increasing importance and added value of semiconductors in the design of digital devices.
Thanks to a new semiconductor technology, engineers of GPS phones, MP3 phones, and digital still cameras are able to design with both singlelevel cell (SLC) and multilevel cell (MLC) NAND flash memory technologies using a single-die solution. According to Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., its Flex-OneNAND fusion semiconductor is not only a first for the industry, it enables much greater flexibility in memory utilization through the easy modification of a CE product even after the original design has been completed.
Tony Kim, senior manager of Flash Technical Marketing at Samsung Semiconductor, Inc., says that the main concept behind the new product is integration. "Current memory architecture for embedded multimedia memory card (eMMC) suggests that users should make use of additional booting memory because current chipsets do not support booting from eMMC," he explains. "Moreover, depending upon the type of code and data written into the flash memory, some should be written in SLC and some in MLC for optimal efficiency."
Flex-OneNAND is said to allow designers to freely configure the memory by partitioning the NAND array into SLC and MLC areas. "The software engages a specially designated block for this purpose, which is called the partition information (PI) block," Kim says. "Designers can add a boundary address, which will differentiate SLC from MLC in this PI Block. Then when power goes on (cold reset) or a special command (PI Update Command) is issued, the area which is lower than the boundary address will become SLC and the area which is higher than the boundary address will become MLC."
The main benefit of this feature, Kim says, is flexibility. It not only allows designers to configure the semiconductor to their exact design specifications, they can also reconfigure their design just prior to production if market conditions dictate.
The technology is also said to also reduce the area needed for the memory on the printed circuit board and improves performance by diminishing transmission noise. As far as reliability, Kim says the company's specs indicate that as much as 50K P/E cycles for SLC and 10K P/E cycles for MLC can be guaranteed.
Even with its sophisticated capabilities, Kim says the technology is cost effective. "If we compare the memory architecture of standardized basic eMMC with that of Flex-OneNAND, we realize that eMMC based architecture needs additional SLC-based flash for booting," he says. "But Flex-OneNAND-based architecture doesn't need additional memory for booting, which eliminates the additional cost overhead on the overall system."
The faster read and write capability of SLC NAND flash is said to make it more effective in processing the "code" data used primarily in device boot-up and data downloading, while the greater cost efficiency of MLC NAND makes it more attractive in large-content storage functions. Kim says the semiconductor is mostly likely used in mid- to high-end music or navigational phones, which typically require 4 to 16 GB of flash memory. "It is also an excellent solution for digital still cameras, which require a high density of embedded flash memory for code and storage," he adds.

Title: pig paper pads
Date: Mar 14, 2010
These are really cute pads of paper, small, but really cute. I used them, along with a pencil as a prize for a game at my daughter's pig party. Kids love to just write or draw and the kids loved them. The picture on the front is adorable and the paper inside has little pig faces printed on it. Very cute.

I loved the pig notepads. They are nicely made. Also, when you open the note pad. It has little pigs decorating the paper.
My daughter is having a Charlottes Web Party. They match great!

iBook Review: The Unwanted Guest by Moving Tales
Reviewed by Guy Dayen
After the rousing success of "The Pedlar Lady", Moving Tales is back with a second installment in their Classic World Tales series; this one called "The Unwanted Guest". This second effort is as beautiful and moving as the first. Anyone who enjoys this type of gentle story will find this tale a wonderful addition to their library.
The story, inspired by a traditional Jewish folk tale and adapted by Jacqueline O. Rogers, tells of an old man who finds himself, in the twilight of his years, rather down on his luck. His house is slowly falling in disrepair and he has been forced to sell off most of his possessions. One day, the old man finds that Poverty has come to his house, and Poverty is not one to go away easily. Rather, Poverty grows and grows, and soon takes over the old man's house. This inspirational tale tells of the old man's resolve against this unwanted guest. It is a story that can be enjoyed by all, young and old, as it speaks to the small voice in all of us that the things we have and hold dear are transient, and could easily disappear one day. In these challenging economic times, the tale resonates even more, and teaches us a valuable lesson about how we can deal with the hand that Fate deals us. To say more would spoil the lyrical beauty of the story. It is to be discovered and savored by one?s self, or with a loved one.
The animation in the story is very reminiscent of ?The Pedlar Lady?. This is a good thing, as that first story set a truly lofty standard for animated story-telling on the iPad/ iPhone platform. Everything is beautifully rendered, and the animation is extremely fluid. There is an extended sequence at the high point of the story that is just incredible; it is as visually impressive as anything Hollywood is putting out these days.
The narration in "The Unwanted Guest" is excellent, and is perfectly suited to the tone of the story. The narrator?s voice is very pleasant, and his reading of the tale is spot on. The story comes alive, and we really feel the emotions of the old man as he deals with the hardships of his destitution. There is a setting to change languages, and you can read and listen to the story in Spanish and in French as well as English. If you wish, you can also make your own recording of the tale, so that your little ones can hear your own voice as they fall asleep. Beautiful violin music accompanies the story; it is very moving, and carries you right along as it ebbs and swells on its way to the climax of the story. Based on traditional Finnish folk music, it is a perfect accompaniment to the visuals, and supports the story beautifully.
Although ?The Unwanted Guest? is a bit longer than ?The Pedlar Lady?, it is over very quickly. The animation and music are so beautiful that you just want more, and the story could have been fleshed out a bit more. If you like the interactions in ?The Pedlar Lady? - we certainly did, you'd wish there were more of them in Unwanted Guest as they really added an extra dimension to the story, and were a wonderful way to involve younger readers in the story.
I heartily recommend ?The Unwanted Guest?. The care and quality put into this second effort by Moving Tales is evident throughout, and you will find yourself coming back to this simple story repeatedly, or pulling out your device to show your friends and family the incredible things that can be done for the ever more popular iOS platform. I?m really looking forward to the next installments of Classic World Tales, which will be coming to your iPad or iPhone soon!

21 tactics to increase your blog traffic
Aug 31st
Tactic No. 21 . . . it's a brand.
". . . to be a great brand, you need to be a brand that people want to associate themselves with and a brand that people feel they derive value from being a member. Exclusivity, insider jokes, emails with regulars, the occassional cat post and references to your previous experiences can be offputting for new readers, but they're solid gold for keeping your loyal base feeling good about their brand experience with you."

6 secret laws of authentic marketing
Aug 31st
The secret is out. Tribal Knowledge lists 6 laws (maybe they're more like guidlines) for authentic marketing.
1. Be genuine and authentic
2. Evoke feelings, never prescribe feelings
3. Always say who you are, never who your are not
4. Stay connected to front-line employees
5. Deliver on all promises made
6. Respect people's intelligence
Number three has got to be the most important law of marketing you could ever follow. You create your own reality, and when you have a marketing team talking about what you aren't, you become it.

Where do your marketing morals lie?
Aug 30th
Something to chew on from Seth Godin. I've never heard him be this authentic before.
"We're responsible for what we sell and how we sell it. We're responsible for the effects (and the side effects) of our actions.
It is our decision. Whatever the decision is, you need to own it. If you can't look that decision in the mirror, market something else."
Authenticity is powerful.
Rick Koerber recently spoke about authenticity as well.

It's not your idea that matters . . .

"It's not your idea; but what your idea BECOMES that matters."
Something to chew on from Scott Ginsberg
And he asks this "What was the best idea you had in the past year? What did it become?"
My idea? Writing about a guy on my blog so I could get his attention long enough to speak to him about doing some business together. What did it become? It actually contributed to a recent job offer, which I accepted.

Well, we've narrowed our search to a very specific vehicle. In the unlikely event you have one of these you'd like to sell, please contact me at robillardj "at" gmail "dot" com. If you happen to know anyone that has one or know someone that could locate one (car dealership owner or employee), that would work, too.
Here's what we need:
- 2001-2004 Chevy Suburban 2500 (trim package doesn't matter)
- 8.1L engine
- Less than 100,000 miles
- 4.1 differential (look for RPO code "GT5″ on sticker in glovebox)
- 4L85E transmission (RPO code Z82)
- Factory tow package (RPO code UY7)
The specific needs are for safety reasons. After calculating the weight of our likely trailer and gear, this will give us the most flexibility. In the near future, I'll share the process for calculating the weights (thanks to John Anderson, founder of the RV Safety and Education Foundation.)

Name of the Product Shoo, Jimmy Choo – The Modern Girls Guide to Spending Less and Saving More by Catey Hill
Price of Product $14.00
Where it can be purchased Where books or sold and also online
Remember when Sex and the City's Carrie Bradshaw faced the brutal realization that she couldn't buy her apartment because she'd already spent her money on a closet full of Manolos? Well, if Carrie had met Catey first, she'd already have owned her co-op, had a pile of savings and been on her way to a comfortable retirement! And Catey can do the same thing for you!Catey Hill is the Money Editor for the New York Daily News Web site—and author of this humorous, practical "girlfriends guide" to personal finance for 20- and 30-something ladies. With a hip, "I've been there" voice along with worksheets and exercises, she helps women evaluate why they spend, get out of debt, and create a savings and retirement plan that even allows for the occasional splurge. Among the topics she covers: student loans, car payments, investing, saving for a home, and more.
This book is so near and dear to my heart. When I was single I used to spend so much money. A whole lot! Now that I have a family I do save more but I love to spend. This book is so helpful. It's the perfect gift for the spending girl in your life even if that girl is you! Learn modern ways to save more and to stop chasing the name brands so much.
No one can save the way they used. Things are very different now. Learn how to really do what's needed. A great idea for any money saving mom. Shoo, Jimmy Choo will save you a lot of money. It's a great gift idea.
I received a sample of this product to review at no charge but my opinions are not influenced in any way by this fact. They are my own.

Saint Joseph's accidentally emails students' GPAs
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Officials at Saint Joseph's University in Philadelphia are apologizing for accidentally disclosing the grade-point averages of hundreds of students.
The school's provost notified the campus of the error through an email on Tuesday.
Saint Joseph's spokeswoman Carolyn Steigleman says the mistake affected about 500 students in the Haub School of Business.
She says the upperclassmen had been sent an email March 6 to gauge their interest in an internship in Italy. A file containing students' names, email addresses and GPAs was inadvertently attached.
Steigleman says officials immediately apologized to the affected students. The provost sent a follow-up email to the larger school community this week.
Saint Joseph's is a private Catholic university serving nearly 9,000 students.

Iron Mountain Should Get REIT Status
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Iron Mountain (IRM), a data-storage company, hopes to get approval soon from the Internal Revenue Service so that it can convert into a real estate investment trust, a potential boon to shareholders.
Last week, the IRS said it has resumed work on rulings to let Iron Mountain and Equinix (EQIX), a company that runs data centers, know if they can convert into REITs. The IRS had been studying what constitutes "real estate" for the purposes of REIT conversion.
Boston-based Iron Mountain has already obtained management approval for its conversion into a REIT, but the conversion is subject to a review by the IRS. The company has been considering unlocking its vast real estate holdings that consist of over $6.4 billion in assets for over a year.
If Iron Mountain became a REIT, it would distribute up to $1.5 billion in accumulated profits to shareholders and REIT status would mean at least 90% of taxable income would be delivered to shareholders in the form of dividends.Iron Mountain is now taxed at the corporate level. By converting to a REIT, Iron Mountain can avoid paying taxes and instead pay out higher dividends which are paid and taxed at the individual level. Although Iron Mountain has a sizable transportation business with more than 3,600 vehicles to transport files to and from customers' business and storage facilities, most of its business is storing documents , which is why the company is pursuing a REIT classification. REITs must either own or lease out 75% of their real estate or derive 75% of their income from real estate. The IRS private ruling letter pertains to the definition of real estate. As more companies pursue the tax-advantaged REIT structure, the IRS has taken a closer look at the assets that constitute real estate. Back in 1960 when REITs were formed by Congress and when cell towers, data-storage centers and document-storage businesses weren't around, the definition of real estate was much simpler. Still, as I see it, Iron Mountain's IRS private ruling letter should be a rubber stamp as the bins and storage for the self-storage REITs are considered leasehold improvements. Iron Mountain shares closed Wednesday at $28.71 -- up about 8% after the IRS news last week. It's likely that the company with 2012 revenue of $3 billion will clear the last IRS hurdle, and the dividend income should drive the shares higher. The current dividend yield is 3.6%, and if the REIT plan unfolds, investors should expect a much higher yield.
