I wouldn't mind seeing someone on the commission for 20 years if that person is doing a good job.
I think this commission is doing great so far.
You are making a lot of assumptioms in this post sharon, some of it may or may not be true.
The Bizness, I agree with you. I think that Sharon is assuming that the average voter in Sandusky is some unaware boob that only votes for familiar names, rather than pay attention to the issues. She says that it is disrespectful to second guess the citizens of this community asking them to double check their vote, once again, by re-voting on something that is already law...as long as it is a law she agrees with.
Wouldn't it also be disrespectful to the voters if one were to assume that they would continue to elect the same person for 20 years if that person were not living up to his expectations?
Former Judge Bridget McCafferty of Cuyahoga County received 125,000 votes while under indictment by the Feds.
Cleveland Municipal Court Judge Angela Stokes -- who's been under investigation for allegations that she abused court staff, lawyers and defendants -- will no longer hear criminal cases beginning Monday.
People WILL vote for a familiar name.
20 years? No way.
You think the commission is doing great so far. The new commission has been in session for 3 and half months what great accomplishments have they done so far?
Got ride of a city manager that wasn't doing her job.
If someone sits on a seat for 20 years then that means they are doing something right. If they don't do their job to the peoples liking then they will not be voted back on.
Yes they did, didn't they. Now we go through it all once again. It takes a certain amount of time to become proficient at your job; just when we start turning the corner, wham, we have to start all over again.
I have a idea: How about the Commissioners start managing the city manager as they are tasked to do by the Charter.
Pete pretty much sums up one of the main problems with long terms. Look over there in Sandusky county; we have Prosecutor Stierwalt working towards 16 years.
You're a progressive person. I like to look for that in the folks I elect. Long terms don't encourage change.
With our present system a person can be a long term Commissioner. He just has to take a 4 year year break -- like Mr. Murray.
Is there a map showing where they live?
I assume it's public information.
The city's website lists the Commissioners' addresses except for Commissioner Brady. According to "White Pages" Commissioner Brady lives on Willow Dr.
You're right on target with this one, Sharon. That's why I said when people were applauding the very obvious pre-planned firing of Nicole Ard be careful what you wish for.
change laws and cut seats to get a raise
is there a public vote to do all this or is
it the kings(bho) way?
Strong mayor and ward system! Then you have representation from each area in the city.
Hmm I am a bit torn. I see where going to five as it reflects a smaller population can be appropriate. But I'm more concerned about the representation of the citizenry than the quantity of government. Five may be efficient, but perhaps a ward system would be better to employ first? Give it a few election cycles (maintaining term limits), then it would be worthy to explore less positions if the trade-off is better representation. So it's a phase-in style.
Step 1: Move to wards, keep seven Commissioners and City Manager
Step 2: Evaluate if going to five Commissioners will ensure representation AND efficiency
Step 3: Evaluate if a mayor is better than a city manager, and if not, should the manager be elected or hired?
Despite its problems, potholes, and...hmmm...pergolas? (that's a fun word) Sandusky will be around for a while. There's no reason not to take things slow, steady, with public knowledge/ability to learn, and one at a time. It's a journey we all can take together.
Going to wards first means more public resistance to cutting the size of commission later, as residents of a given ward will be more likely to see a cut and/or consolidation as a direct loss of *their own* representation. "Commissioner X may be a bum, but s/he's MY bum."
On the other hand, consider that most commissions of the last couple decades have had one or two who just plain don't show up. I see that as an argument for cutting commission size, but I can also see that if a commissioner is elected to represent a given ward and then vanishes in a puff of don't-give-a-****, one might expect/hope voters in that ward would take it personally.
Less impressed with the argument, presented elsewhere in this debate, about "voting blocs," as they are something you like when the bloc votes the way you like and something you don't when it doesn't.
How about trimming commission, then going to the ward system?
Once you trim commission, it will likely be very difficult to institute a ward system. Why not do both at the same time?
Addressing the valid point about representation/my bum what if it was four wards with three at large at first. Then any spots cut would be from the at large pool. That way the wards get to keep their representative even after a reduction?
What may be nice is some language detailing when going back up would be proper. That way we have a goal of sorts to want to grow our city. Maybe if we hit 35,000 it goes to seven? Or in the case of a merging between Perkins and Sandusky to form a larger city what then?
But I suppose that's a whole other topic!
Like ^
Norwalk--population 17000--7 council persons
Huron---population 7100--7 council persons.
Port Clinton--population 6000--7 council persons.
Point here is cutting the number of commission seats does nothing but limit discussion and debate impacting citizen representation.
The Sandusky community needs to ride the wave of Commissioner Murray's, Brady's, and Twines idea of cutting the number of seats by forming a citizen group to petition for a "ward system"). Under the current system, all 7 commissioners could live in one area of town.
"Point here is cutting the number of commission seats does nothing but limit discussion and debate impacting citizen representation"
Yes, it's easier to get a smaller group of people to reach consensus. That's why the Founding Fathers broke Congress into two houses and the government into three branches - they didn't WANT it to be easy, because that moves power from the people to the government, and makes it easier to abuse that power. The worst possible government is a dictator - one person, and it gets better as you increase the number of people who must agree.
The closest vote in recent memory involving our city commissioners was the decision to remove the city manager by a 4-3 count. If you follow along with how the city is moving forward every two weeks, rarely is there a vote among the seven which is not unanimous. On occasion, a 6-1 decision may surface. If you don't believe me, research the minutes of the commission meetings and be amazed.
I agree with Schwanger and Nemesis and speak from personal experience on a five member publicly elected board overseeing a budget larger than that of Sandusky. Reducing the commission will lead to more stagnation through suppression of new ideas and any dissent.
In my experience any dissent by a Board member was deemed detrimental to the organization by a core group and there was constant pressure to present uniform 5-0 votes to the public. Public discussion was discouraged and vote outcomes were invariably pre-ordained. If one opposed something or wanted to discuss alternatives it was next to impossible to even have the issue placed on the agenda let alone open for public debate. Abuses of the Open Meetings act were commonplace.
Our country was founded on the principle of wide open robust debate on matters of public interest and government. IMO, this move by Murray, Brady and Twine is designed to suppress ideas, limit debate and discourage anyone who doesn't walk in lock step with the ruling oligarchy. Time and time again in our nation yesterday's dissenting opinion or viewpoint gets overturned and becomes the widely accepted view.
Rather than reduce Commission, the city ought to implement The Hero Zone's idea of 4 ward seats and 3 at large seats to ensure the interests of all residents are represented, not just the interests of the political class.
Thank you for sharing your experience! Also for the attribution though I cannot claim to be that idea's originator. I will be quite the amplifier for it.
Mr. Schwanger's statistics are interesting and blows a hole in the theory that our population is shrinking and therefore we must have less city commissioners.

Historical Traveler Reviews Colonial House Inn New York City
Simple but nice - great location
Again - don't be worried by the negative comments here. My boyfriend and I stayed here for 5 nights at the beginning of April 2005 and we were both pleasantly surprised. Its not the Ritz but you won't be disappointed because the rates are very reasonable considering it is New York after all. We had a deluxe room with our own private bath which was super. I'm not so keen on the idea of the smaller rooms and shared baths but I guess it all depends on how busy the hotel is. Worth noting is that there was no air conditioning in our room so in summer it could get hot. The communal areas are clean and nicely decorated. There is always coffee and tea available in reception and a light contintental style breakfast each morning which is included in the room rate. This was perfect to simply get started each morning. What appealed to us most of all is the location. If you want to avoid the mainline new york tourist areas then this place is perfect. Situated mid-town, it is 1 minutes walk from the subway at West 23rd / 8th. This means you can easily travel to the upper and lower manhattan areas. But if you want to stay within the chelsea area for restaurants, bars and nightlife, then this is the perfect location. The staff are also very friendly as well as informative. Should we return to new york in the near future ... we will definitely stay here again.
Great staff, nice renovations
Dont be worried by some of the negative comments here. When I stayed here last spring, they were in the midst of renovating the rooms, and the recently re-done deluxe room I stayed in was very nice, with duvets and a brand new bathroom. Yes, the rooms were getting a little run-down looking, since they hadn't been updated in a while. But I hear that even some of the economy and standard rooms have been done since last spring, though not all rooms have been renovated yet. Yes, the economy room is very small, but it's also an incredible bargain for New York, in a great location on a quiet street, close to the subway. There is a nice breakfast served every morning in the lobby, where I had nice chats with other visitors about what they had seen in the city. And the staff, especially Tony at the front desk during the day, is very friendly and helpful, with no New York attitude. They actually smile and answer your questions pleasantly. Because this isn't a huge place, it really has a friendly, low-key feel, like having your own NY apartment.
Simple, but nice
It's no luxury hotel, but it's simple, clean, pleasant and very well-located. The staff is friendly and helpful and the common areas (rooftop patio, lobby, bathrooms) are well-maintained. The rooms are tiny, it's true. We had an economy room and the room was barely bigger than the bed. But who comes to New York to hang out in their hotel room? The best part, of course, is it's so cheap compared to other hotels, especially considering the location. Don't arrive expecting the Ritz and you won't be disappointed.
Superb Experiance
This place is one of the best places I've stayed in ever compared to all the others. I found the location to be very safe and convinient. It isn't on a loud street like some other places I stayed in NY. I got a chance to stay in several types of their rooms and was impressed by the amenities, cleanliness, and general good looks. The second room I stayed in without a private bath had just been remodled and was even better in my opinion than the delux room. There was more space, and it had a great view of the church across the street.
I found the staff to be very polite and helpful, especially the front desk. When I came to drop my bags off in the morning before I could check in in the afternoon, they were kind enough to offer me breakfast even though I was not yet a guest. Any tourist type questions asked were answered politely.
I will definatley stay there again if I'm ever in NY.
Never again
we stayed at the colonial house inn in 2003 after seeing it on the internet. we chose a 'deluxe' room as the pictures looked ok and promised lots. the reality was very different. our 'deluxe' room was tiny, no proper storage just an open shelf with a hanging rail below. i suppose a door would have caused problems on a wardrobe due to the lack of space. the room was incredibly hot and impossible to reduce the temp. it was VERY cold outside but we had the window well open for 4 days. beds were ancient and very uncomfortable, carpet almost non exisitent although the bathroom was generally very clean and staff friendly. breakfast was ok for the US, muffins bread and fruit all self service. the colonial house inns only real saving grace was the location which was great for everywhere we wanted but you shold follow the advice of other reviewers and go somewhere else.
Still the Best
This gem of a hotel still shines bright in the heart of Chelsea. On a recent visit in June 2004 we were amazed that such a great place is even better than before.
They have redone several of the rooms with a new look but still offer the lowest rates in the city with the highest degree of service in a sparklingly clean guest house.
The huge european style breakfast buffet and clothing optional sun deck draw the most fans But, I personally like to curl up on the window seat in the quiet lobby or a chat with the 24 hour concierge or just to absorb the fantastic art work by owner Mel Cheren.
The only thing on the down side is that there are only 20 rooms. This is truly a place that more people should discover and revisit again and again.
A "deluxe" room? they've got to be kidding! The carpet was so dirty it had a film on it; the bed sagged three different ways; the room so tiny that we had to walk single file; cramped, ancient bathroon; stairs that look like a fire trap. Awful place; paid the two-night penalty and got the heck out of there. Go somewher else.
Great Place to stay
I grew up in New York and I and my partner have stayed in the Inn twice. We found the Inn to be very clean and the staff to be friendly and capable. The rates are very reasonable as well. I especially like it's central location. It's just around the corner from the 8th avenue subway which can take you just about anywhere in the city you want to go. It's minutes away from Greenwich village and the Theater district.
If you like staying in large hotels like the Marriott chain, this place is not for you, room sizes are small and some of the baths are shared.
We however highly recommend it and are planning our third stay there
Simply The Best
My boyfriend and I just returned from a visit to Colonial House Inn and I am happy to report that the entire 4 day stay was perfect. The place is immaculately clean, efficient and friendly. Best part of all is the low room rate which includes a huge breakfast. The gay friendly staff is super friendly and its comforting to know that the concierge is open 24 hours to cater to the slightest wishes. We will definitely return.
Location's Perfect, but "what a dump"
Well, the location's perfect, boys, but I don't think they've put a cent into this place since it opened in the 1980s (and I've stayed here before about seven years ago). Our fourth floor walkup room was so small that you had to crawl across the bed to open the window (it was beastly hot even though it was november (2002) and in the 50s outside). The maid didn't change the sheets for three days (out of four there) [they were marked in a way where we could tell], though she certainly managed to find her tip. The lampshade constantly fell off, the remote control didn't work, the bedspread (where not threadbare) was covered with holes, there was a big piece of duct tape stuck to the ceiling (oh the walls and ceiling are painted this really ugly shiny institutional off-green). The walls are so thin that we were grateful for the street traffic to mask the snoring of the man next to us. The communal bathroom never once had any soap n the institutional plastic soap dispenser, and the tub drained so slowly that the black ring around it was ever present. The green astroturf on the rooftop deck is a nice touch, though (that's, um, sarcasm). For not much more cash, you could stay somewhere in much better condition with a private bath. If you HAVE to stay in Chelsea, cough up the few extra dollars tor the Inn on 23rd St or Chelsea Savoy Hotel. The location, like I said, couldn't be better but the condition of Colonial House Inn is what gives gay hotels/establishments a bad name...... Never again!

Oct. 12 (Bloomberg) -- John A. Thaler's $3 billion global long-short hedge fund, JAT Capital Management LP, jumped 31 percent this year through September as the manager's market- neutral stance and short positions drove returns, according to four people familiar with the matter.
Thaler's short holdings, or bets that stock prices will fall, more than offset declines in his long positions as markets slumped, said three of the people, who asked not to be identified because the information is private.
The New York-based fund, whose assets have tripled since Dec. 31, stopped accepting new capital from investors on Oct. 1 and may reopen next year, the people said. Hedge funds on average dropped 0.9 percent in the year's first nine months and long-short managers posted losses of 2.6 percent, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Steve Bruce, an outside spokesman for the firm, declined to comment on JAT's returns.
The fund has typically swung between about 10 percent net long or short in the past 18 months, the people said. It currently has gross exposure of about 200 percent, using leverage to magnify its long and short wagers, and a market- neutral position with zero net exposure, they said.
JAT has a "philosophy of making money on both sides of the book," according to a marketing document dated Aug. 31 that was obtained by Bloomberg News.
Baidu Inc., the Beijing-based Internet search-engine operator whose American depositary receipts were one of JAT's biggest stakes at midyear according to a regulatory filing, plunged 27 percent last month, the people said.
Short Bets
The loss was mitigated by short bets Thaler placed on other Chinese Internet stocks, which tumbled amid a dimming global economic outlook and growing regulatory scrutiny. The U.S. Department of Justice is reviewing allegations of accounting fraud at firms operating from the Asian nation, Securities and Exchange Commission Enforcement Director Robert Khuzami said in a Reuters interview published Sept. 29.
JAT declined 3.2 percent in September, matching the average fund's loss during the worst month for the $2 trillion hedge fund industry in more than a year. Long-short funds dropped 4.4 percent last month as the worsening European debt crisis exacerbated market declines, Bloomberg data show.
Thaler, 36, grew up on Long Island. He received his bachelor's degree in economics at the University of Chicago and became a banking analyst at Merrill Lynch & Co. and an associate at private-equity firm Spectrum Equity Investors LP.
Shumway Capital
Thaler joined Chris Shumway's Shumway Capital Partners LLC at its inception in 2002 as an analyst covering telecommunications, media and technology. He eventually managed the SCP Omni Fund, which traded stocks in those industries, before leaving in 2007 to open his own hedge fund with start-up capital from Shumway. He began JAT that November with more than $220 million in assets, the people said.
JAT started with 90 percent of its investments in telecom, media and technology and now has half in those industries and half in consumer, industrial and gaming companies, which have driven the majority of profits this year. The firm employs 31 people, three of whom also worked at Greenwich, Connecticut- based Shumway: Ken Palumbo, 40, Shumway's former chief operating officer and now JAT's president; Eduardo Costa, 35, an analyst in Thaler's fund at Shumway and now JAT's director of research; and Kristy Kennedy, a marketing director at Shumway and now head of marketing at JAT.
Thaler generally aims to hold long positions for two years and short positions for three to 12 months, the people said.
'Find a Thesis'
Baidu has been one of JAT's five largest long holdings for almost two years, regulatory filings show. JAT currently has about 100 long and short positions, according to the people. About half of the fund's investments are currently in companies with less than $10 billion in market value, they said. The majority of its stakes can be liquidated within five business days.
Thaler and his investment team of seven industry heads and three analysts spend the majority of their time on research, the people said. JAT's risk-management process is designed to insulate the fund from market volatility, they said.
"Find a thesis, not a stock idea," the firm said in the marketing document. "JAT Capital conducts a bottom-up 'kick- the-tires' approach to research that forms the foundation of ideas."
JAT gained 11 percent last year and 20 percent in 2009, according to the document. The firm lost 5.9 percent in 2008 and 0.7 percent in November and December 2007.

"flavored panko with thyme, basil, ginger, and chile heat, which makes the crumbs a really exciting ingredient and one you'll use often. The flavored crumbs also store beautifully. Lasts 3 weeks, refrigerated"
Serving Size: 1 (465 g)
Servings Per Recipe: 1
"This worked perfect and had a nice balance of seasoning for my oven baked chicken!"
"These were great on our pork chop! Can't wait to try it on other things."
"Absolutely loved the spice for these panko bread crumbs. I also added some cayenne powder and it was nice and spicey and made my fish from another recipe very delicious. Made a big batch to use the next time. Thanks so much for the tips!"
"I found this recipe last night. I was so excited. I use panko crumbs a lot and now that we are in CA part time I found seasoned ones and ran out...here was a recipe waiting for me to try without having to run to the store. Thank you!"
"I have been using this for about two years now. I like to throw in a teaspoon of cayenne for extra kick!"
"This is the 3rd time I have referred to your recipe. This is a perfect breadcrumb recipe- right mix of seasoning and flavor. I love the chili for the added heat.I use this with my haddock panko recipe- perfect."
"Great spiced panko crumbs. I used then in place of the herb stuffing mix in your Recipe #134148 and it complimented the pork sausage extremely well. Will definitely keep these on hand."
"*Wonderful* blend of flavors! The ginger & ancho chili powder additions are unexpected but terrific! I made exactly as written and used some to make recipe #235395 for dinner last night. I'm already searching for ways to use the crumbs again. ;-) Thanks for sharing this keeper of a recipe!"
"The mix of panko and spices was incredible! I made Kittencal's chicken (recipe #191235) tonight with these crumbs and the chicken was very crispy and moist in the inside. Thanks NimrodCook!"
"I halved this recipe and used regular chili powder. I breaded pork cubed steaks and browned them. The flavor was awesome. We topped the pork steaks with sauteed red and green pepper strips and onion slices then covered those with a piece of muenster cheese until it melted! Fabulous, the spicy zing of the breading with the creamy cheese and veg! This will be used again and again at our house. Thanks for the treat meanie!"
"I got this exact recipe on Ming Tsai's website a couple of weeks ago. As Ming Tsai states, these breadcrumbs are superior to homemade breadcrumbs!!"

Hello! I'm SkinnyMandria, also known as DeviousBunny.
I tend to go by "Benny" or "Bunny" on the internet. Some of my friends also call me "Bart" and "Brut". I don't mind what you call me, I like nicknames.
I have a little girl. She's 6 years old and you'll notice I never say her name in public because I like to keep her personal information private.

Health information management professionals serve as a vital link between health care providers, payers, and patients. Often, their roles bridge the gap and provide the connection between the clinical, operational, and administrative aspects of health care. A career in this field allows an individual to work in health care settings, but requires no direct hands-on patient care. Training in health information management provides the body of knowledge and necessary practice skills to ensure the availability of health information to facilitate health care delivery, critical health-related decision making, quality care, and reimbursement while maintaining data integrity standards, confidentiality, and data security.

BAY SHORE, N.Y. (WPIX)—It was supposed to be a fun visit for the three friends of Karolyn Encarnacion's two daughters. It turned into a nightmare late Wednesday night when James Snead, 43, shot and killed Encarnacion and then killed himself, according to police.
The murder-suicide investigation started after police responded to a call at 11:43 p.m. of a shooting at 321 Brook Avenue, Apartment 1A in Bay Shore. They found the bodies of Snead and his former girlfriend both dead of gunshot wounds, Suffolk County Police said.
The children all left the apartment and a neighbor called police, according to authorities.
The investigation is continuing.

'Suburban Gothic' Review Fantasia 2014: We Can Go Ahead and Cancel 'Ghostbusters 3′ NowFantasia Fest By Rob Hunter on July 23, 2014 | Be the First To Comment
Fantasia International Film Festival 2014 runs July 17 to August 6. Follow all of our coverage here. Raymond (Matthew Gray Gubler) is a recent college grad with an MBA and a strong desire to work. Unfortunately he's holding out for something in upper management, and that something is not on his career horizon. Defeated he returns to his hometown to move back in with his mom and dad (Barbara Niven and Ray Wise), but while he expects living at home again to be a nightmare he's unprepared for just how horrific it becomes. A little dead girl is discovered buried in their backyard, and the find is soon followed by all manner of supernatural shenanigans and terrifying apparitions. Raymond is no stranger to ghostly visitors as he used to regularly see and commune with the dead as a child. He lost the ability as he grew up, but reminded of his true calling and with the assistance of a dryly sarcastic bartender (Kat Dennings) he sets out to appease the vengeful spirit and return the household to normal. Director/co-writer Richard Bates Jr.'s second film, Suburban Gothic, is a bit rough around the edges at times — due clearly to budgetary limitations as opposed to creative ones — but none of that gets in the way of the high energy and generous laughs packed into a tight and very funny 90 minutes.
9 Criminally Underused ActorsCinematic Listology By Monika Bartyzel on May 8, 2014 | Be the First To Comment
Sometimes Hollywood charms us and hypnotizes us with its magic. And sometimes it's so damned capricious with talent that you want to start a national shin-kicking campaign to change the tide. Between celebrities built up and then thrust into obscurity, and talents that never quite see the light of fame, Hollywood is a wasteland of actors who could give the current who's who a run for their dramatic money. The lucky few get that extra ten minutes of fame that turns them into a split-second repeat whirlwind a la Mickey Rourke, but most live the life of a character actor with the occasional reminder role, or the television guest star who makes Kevin Bacon's Hollywood web seem a little smaller. Here are nine of the many, the ones that have had me grumbling about their trajectories in recent months:
Mad Men: Knee-Deep In Hypocrisy and KetchupFeatures By Caitlin Hughes on April 22, 2013 | Comments (6)
This week's Mad Men is all about not practicing what you preach. Don gets angry with Megan for feigning sex on her soap, when he does a lot more than feign with others in real life. Joan fires Harry's secretary, Scarlett, when Joan is clearly no angel. And a lot of people are mad about some secret meetings with Heinz Ketchup. This episode, entitled "To Have and to Hold," probably won't have much weight in terms of furthering the plot as a whole other than to further complicate the Don/Megan relationship. Though, like last week's entry, this episode from writer Erin Levy and director Michael Uppendahl has a tight theme, is well-constructed, and is definitely engaging. Joan's act of hypocrisy here stems from her desperately trying to establish a sense of authority in the male-driven workplace. And you really feel for her, especially since that whole terrible Jaguar situation is still getting thrown in her face. When she discovers that Scarlett made Dawn falsely punch her timecard to duck out with Harry (and also to do some shopping) she is livid and immediately fires Scarlett… only to get undermined by Harry and the rest of the partners when the firing doesn't stick. Harry is especially awful here, begging for a partnership (which he doesn't get), saying, "I'm sorry my accomplishments happened in broad daylight and I can't be given the same rewards."
SFotD: 'The Election' Gives Us More Reasons to Be TenseFeatures By Scott Beggs on November 8, 2012 | Be the First To Comment
Why Watch? If you've ever wanted to watch Ray Wise continue looking creepy and making terrible ethical decisions with a blunt instrument, Twin Peaks is a great way to go. If you only have 9 minutes, this short film from Padraig Reynolds will definitely do the trick. With the stakes immediately high, we're dropped into the desert just a handful of days before the people decide their new governor with one of the candidates. Fortunately, he has his wife to keep him company. Unfortunately, he's also got a big problem. It's excellent to see a slow-burn executed so well in the time given. Chalk it up to Wise's sheer, unmitigated magnetism, the chill of co-star Lin Shaye and the natural assumptions that we all make about the people reaching for power in our society. It's a moral tale that sinks to the bottom of your gut. Kudos for Vimeo for making it a staff pick and for Short of the Week for spotlighting it. What will it cost you? Only 9 minutes. Skip work. Watch more short films.
Little Fingers of Death! Win 'The Aggression Scale' on Blu-ray!Free Stuff By Rob Hunter on May 24, 2012 | Comments (20)
Remember the first time you watched Home Alone? You probably enjoyed it quite a bit, but still, somewhere deep in the back of your head, you knew it was missing something. That something was most likely extreme violence, bloody murder and a hot older sister. Lucky for you director Steven Miller and writer Ben Powell thought the very same thing. Their new film, The Aggression Scale, is about a group of thugs who invade a family's home in search of money and kicks but find an emotionally disturbed boy instead. Owen is prone to violence, knowledgeable in the art of weapon-making and booby traps and very, very angry. He would eat Kevin McCallister for breakfast. The always wonderful Ray Wise stars as the mobster behind it all, and Dana Ashbrook joins him as his right-hand man and lead enforcer. That's right…it's a mini Twin Peaks reunion!

Survey gives citizens unique opportunity to voice their concerns with governance and public administration
Ha Noi – The second annual results of an innovative governance survey released today warn that bribery remains widespread in the public sector, and that many citizens perceive bribery to be on the rise. Nearly 14,000 people were interviewed in the latest survey of the Viet Nam Governance and Public Administration Performance Index, PAPI, which was conducted by CECODES in collaboration with the Viet Nam Fatherland Front, with support from the UN. PAPI is the largest ever survey tool for measuring the quality of public services in Viet Nam.
When asked if bribes are required to get jobs in the public sector, fifty percent more respondents said yes than in 2011 (up from 29% to 44%). A similar increase was reported with accessing medical care (an increase from 31% in 2011 to 42% in 2012) and securing land-use rights (32% in 2012 compared with 21% in 2011).
PAPI 2012 also reveals that citizens continue to demand more accountability, better control of corruption and better quality administrative and public services. "Wealthier, better-educated citizens demand higher quality, more efficient administrative services from their government, less bureaucracy and in particular no corruption. As Viet Nam transitions towards a more prosperous, democratic society and a thriving market economy, the public administration system will need to play a key role in poverty reduction, a goal that cannot be fulfilled by economic growth alone" said Pratibha Metha, UN Resident Coordinator.
However in the area of land administration, consistent with findings from two previous rounds of PAPI surveys, PAPI 2012 finds that eight out of ten citizens at the local level are unaware of land use plans. Securing land use rights certificates remains problematic, and scores the lowest among the four types of administrative procedures measured.
One new development in PAPI 2012 is that it estimates the frequency and size of informal payments in critical areas. With substantial sums being demanded and paid, bribes are a major problem for many people. The survey offers a lower and upper range of results. For example the more conservative estimate shows that less than 20% of citizens pay about 123,000 VND for a Land use certificate in addition to the official fee, while the more upper range warns that as many as 60% could be paying as much as 818,000 VND for exactly the same service.
PAPI 2012 also shows that a significant amount of corruption goes unreported, either because the process of reporting it is too costly, or because citizens do not trust the procedures in place. This indicates that in many cases citizens simply accept that bribery is necessary to be able to circumvent burdensome procedures.
The report also reveals major drivers of dissatisfaction with administrative procedures, with lack of respect shown towards applicants, and the lack of professionalism of civil ser vants being the two most significant. For respondents who perceived civil servants to be incompetent, satisfaction with being granted land use right certificate procedures fell by 65%. Those who experienced a lack of respect from civil servants were 62% less satisfied with the administrative service than those who were treated more respectfully. Respondents to the survey also believe that personal connections will be a much significant factor in gaining employment in the public sector, rather than on merit.
In terms of health service at the district level, the PAPI 2012 survey finds that the two main drivers of satisfaction are the quality of treatment received as well as the level of attention received by patients from public district hospitals. Meanwhile, in terms of public primary education, an important driver of satisfaction is the skills and qualifications of teachers.
On a more positive note, respondents experienced slightly better local governance and public services in 2012 compared to 2011. Four out of six areas where citizens experienced some level of improvement are corruption, transparency, public service delivery and vertical accountability. In each area the average score slightly increased in 2012 compared to 2011.

The file-sharing service FileSonic has deactivated its sharing capabilities following US officials' shutdown of the Megaupload website.
The FileSonic website had allowed users to upload files onto its virtual storage for other users to download but this was halted on Sunday.
A message on FileSonic's website reads: "All sharing functionality on FileSonic is now disabled. Our service can only be used to upload and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally."
Although cyberlockers such as FileSonic can be used legitimately to share files, they can also be used to upload and download copyrighted material, which is illegal.
The disablement of FileSonic's sharing functionality comes after US prosecutors charged rival cyberlocker Megaupload.com with violating copyright laws.
The Megaupload website redirects users to a FBI anti-piracy warning from the Department of Justice that says that the site has been seized.
The shutdown led to several attacks on government and rights holders' websites including Universal Music and CBC.com, with hacking activist group Anonymous claiming responsibility.
Successful leaders are infusing analytics throughout their organisations to drive smarter decisions, enable faster actions and optimise outcomes

Not every country must be with Israel and THANK GOD many are NOT.
That's politics.
If every country banned players from countries it didn't like there would be no tournaments!
Sport should not be ruled by politics and players should be able to play in tournaments. It is not hard to separate politics from sport - most countries do it.

Players I root for now: Heather, Laura, Lucie, Marion, Serena, Simona, Svetlana, Venus, Vika. And Caroline.
Doubles and Mixed Doubles are fun and underrated.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (2/23/13) – Initial figures from Kentucky's Tax Amnesty program show a strong response from delinquent taxpayers. Actual and estimated receipts of $56.9 million slightly exceed the budgeted amount of $56.7 million. However, total revenue attributed to amnesty will not be conclusive until the end of the fiscal year, which is June 30.
"More than 27,000 delinquent taxpayers from all 120 Kentucky counties and all 50 states participated," said Lori H. Flanery, Secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet. "This means we have 27,000 more taxpayers who are now compliant and have come clean with the Commonwealth of Kentucky."
According to the Department of Revenue, the largest payment under amnesty was $6 million. The average payment was $1,300 for individuals and $3,300 for businesses.
Approximately 1,500 taxpayers, who could not pay their outstanding liability in full before amnesty ended, took advantage of setting up a payment plan. Those payments must be reached in full by May 31 -- otherwise interest, penalties and fees will be added back.
"Our goal with this amnesty program was not only to achieve the amount we projected, but to make it easy for taxpayers to comply," said Tom Miller, Commissioner of the Department of Revenue. "I am so proud of our staff in Revenue. They worked tirelessly preparing for amnesty, executing the program and now following up."
A final report on the overall success of the amnesty program will be available soon after the end of the fiscal year. The last tax amnesty program in Kentucky was held in 2002.
Following are additional facts and figures about Kentucky's amnesty program:
- 60 percent of applications were from businesses; 40 percent from individuals.
- 86 percent of applications were from in-state versus out-of-state.
- The top five counties for number of applications received were Jefferson, Fayette, Kenton, Boone and Oldham.
- Beyond the Commonwealth, the top five states for number of applications received were Ohio, Indiana, Florida, Tennessee and Illinois.
- The 61-day amnesty program ran from Oct. 1 to Nov. 30, 2012.
- More than 175,000 packets were sent out to delinquent taxpayers.
- Amnesty participants must remain current over the next three years or face reinstated penalties, fees and interest.
- Those who did not participate in amnesty face stiffer fees and additional interest.
- An extensive advertising and public relations campaign generated awareness of the amnesty program.
- This was the third amnesty program ever offered to delinquent Kentucky taxpayers.

Wendys - I guess they have a problem with pregnant people.

I was pregnant with my daughter and i had discussed with my gm that i wanted to work until my due date.He cut me 2 weeks early saying that i was too pregnant to work (he told several people to tell me he couldnt even do it himself).
When he would not allow me to come back to work i filed for unemployment but wendy's soon appealed it saying that i could have come back to work anytime and still could. Of course the unemployment officer believed wendy's even though i had witnesses tell her differently. I asked the assistant manager 3 times, twice in person, if i could come back and she told me they would have to see if i was rehireable and never got back to me. I was never supposed to be fired in the first place i was only on leave.
on top of that i worked for 2 years trying to get a management position and as soon as i told my gm i wanted to be a stay at home mom and breastfeed he offered me management that i obviously couldnt take. My husband has worked for wendy's for 3 years now and has never recieved a raise or evaluation of any kind. Not only that but to try to save money corporate wendy's moved everyones payday one day to short all the workers one day of pay so we will be a day late on our rent and have to pay a 50 dollar late fee. I just started working at burger king today and couldnt find a job for awhile because of the economy and i am not recieving the unemployment i needed and deserved for being laid off for being too pregnant so my husband and i have been living off of what little he makes on minimum wage.
This would probably make a good case for a lawyer to take on if anybody knows any good ones or if one so happens to be reading this.
until i get paid at burger i dont know how we will survive.Please email me at email@example.com review #286223

Did your employer ACTUALLY fire you? Did you check back after the two weeks or after the kid was born to see if you still had your job? Because if they actually FIRED you then you needed to contact the EEOC or a lawyer and sue for discrimination.
But if all he told you was that you were too pregnant to work then he was most likely telling you for your own benefit that you shouldn't be working your *** off at their pace because it could endanger the unborn child and your own health. Ever hear of miscarriages? Well, a good chunk of them are caused by doing the very thing you wanted to do...A manager who gives enough of a *** to be concerned about his workers may be fewer and further between than it used to be but they aren't extinct yet.
MrsLea01 May 23, 2012
This is a part of what is wrong with America. There are way too many people having children when they are not financially doing well, and then they want to blame everyone else for the predicaments they get stuck in as a result. CHILDREN COST MONEY!! If you are and your husband are working minimum wage jobs and struggling you should have waited to have children.0 0 Reply

Actually, one more thing I'm wondering: Did your DOCTOR say it was fine for you to keep working in a quick-pace fast food environment up to your due date? I've seen pregnant people. They don't move well towards the end. I would insist you leave as well; no one needs to watch you sweat and lumber around sluggishly trying to do anything while they're trying to grab a *** to eat so they can back to their busy and productive lives.0 0 Reply

LOL - Deadbeats. I'm certain that the classes you're taking aren't... what's the phrase... career-producing. I'm sure you're not studying to be engineers, lawyers, doctors... is it an actual school, or one of those buy-a-diploma-online places? The reason why I ask is that the two of you clearly have gone nowhere in life. Years working at a dead end job without having been given a raise suggests that maybe you should both have been thankful for the opportunity Wendy's gave you for as long as they did. I think this quote summarizes things beautifully:
"Since then my husband and i have gotten better jobs and are both going to school so speak before you think".
Speak before you think, indeed.

"I forgot dont eat there the GM touches money smokes handles items that have been on the floor and other disgusting things without washing his hands and then makes sandwiches with no gloves because his employees dont move fast enough for him."
Liar, most likely you are lying. You seem like the trashy type of people you insist you continue to work yet if something happened to you while at work you would sue saying you should not have been working. Most likely got fired for lying about other employees or for some other reason you "forgot" to mention.
irishworrior10 Jan 06, 2012
i raise my daughter just fine. she has everything she needs and more. i am the one giving to needy people. maybe you just blow all your money but i spend it wisely and my daughter will never go without. its you that should never have children for beleiving in killing children or taking them away from their mother because breastfeeding is the best. a little bit of struggle in someones life is good for them it makes them realize what they have and appreciate it that much more. maybe you have never gone without and maybe you should. maybe you would become more humble and a better person. since then my husband and i have gotten better jobs and are both going to school so speak before you think.i am a loyal person not willing to leave a company because there is always a chance to get a raise or move up or get a better manager its not like i didnt try and give them the benefit of a doubt. it looks better on a resume to work somewhere for a long period of time and i was willing to stick it out but they jst screwed me. to this day that gm tells everyone i was the best employee he has ever had but just put saving a buck before his loyalty to his crew. im not the first person he has screwed over in a big way and its time to put it out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 0 Reply

Why would any responsible person expect to receive unemployment compensation because they are pregnant and cannot work because of it? You have an entitlement mentality and both you and your husband are working at minimum wage jobs because of bad decisions you made growing up. You both need to buckle down and take responsibility for your actions. You became pregnant by choice, ergo, no unemployment comp.0 0 Reply
