Hit the North
As it happens I was watching The Road to Coronation Street at the weekend and in it, great emphasis is put on Tony Warren's insistence that the actors are nothern as a southern actor putting on a northern accent just wouldn't be convincing. By all means have southern actors in the programme, I had no problem with the Baldwin clan for instance, but having them try to fake a northern accent rarely cuts the barm cake.
We'll be bringing you a video preview of Stella's first scene later today, so have a watch of that and see what you think.

i saw that and agree not very convincing yet she says shes been up there doing a play all year
well she needs more lessons coz i just think her southern accent is coming through too much-i'll give her a chance but im not convinced

Shame about the accent.
Can't be as annoying as Xin's voice.
Why the funny Bill Oddie picture? It did make me giggle.

Sharon Marshall, This Morning's soaps correspondent, just tweeted this: "@Corrie_Blogger In fairness I'd say that's the weakest scene accent wise, I like her, fully expecting to just see her as Cindy, but no".
Here's hoping she's right.

I'd give her a bit of time to settle into it more. It's early days yet.

I agree Sunny Jim, southerners - no problem, but if they can't do a northern accent then don't. After all, that's what an actor is supposed to be able to do - play a character convincingly and realistically. Jessie Wallace played a blinder so it can be done. Bad accents detract from the character and the plot so I hope it improves!

I thought she sound okay, but John Michie sounded like he was trying to be too Northern (or is that Southern to him LOL)

I'm with TVOR on this give her some time.

Jo - Many years ago, when he was a Goodie, Bill Oddie was a master of the ancient Lancastrian martial art of Ecky Thump, which involved wielding a black pudding.
Perhaps if Michelle Collins eats enough black pudding she will start to sound local. What a shame Roy and Hayley are away on their hols, I'm sure they could've sorted her out with a good fry-up.

- gab said...
the fact is though she admitted she had been doing the accent for months already in a play! just based on that she should have it nailed already
- 13 June 2011 at 18:42
Just don't like the woman. Send her back to Eastenders.

Review: Air + Baricco City Readings
I've always found Air's moody loungescapes a little flabby-sentimental without discretion and full without restraint. Their work for The Virgin Suicides, though, breathed fresh life into the duo; their cinematic aspirations finally fit when corseted by both visual and narrative parameters. City Readings is Air's collaboration with Alessandro Baricco's tale of youth and grizzle, urbanity and the Wild West, and the result's a soothing hour of scene-setting and storytelling. Read more »

Is homebirth safe?
Safety has been held up as the reason why all women should give birth in the hospital. This is despite the fact that no data support the contention that homebirth holds any excess risk provided:
- the mother is low risk
- the homebirth is planned
- she has a trained, experienced birth attendant
- there is a modern hospital within a reasonable distance
When would a homebirth be inadvisable?
- When there are risk factors. Homebirth practitioners agree that some risk factors should rule out home birth. The mother having high blood pressure, or the baby coming early would be two of those factors, while they disagree on others such as the mother having a prior cesarean. In the end, it comes down to you making an informed decision based on the balance between the risks you run at home versus the risks you run in the hospital. To make this assessment, you must weigh your particular circumstances and the skills and experience of the homebirth practitioner against the local hospital care available to you.
- When no trained, experienced homebirth attendant is available. Most of the emergencies that arise without warning at a low-risk birth -- the baby's shoulders are stuck (shoulder dystocia); the baby doesn't breathe; heavy bleeding -- can be resolved or stabilized for hospital transport by a skilled pair of hands and readily portable medication and equipment.
- If you think you will probably want pain medication. You may also feel hesitant or uncomfortable about having a homebirth. No matter what your intellect says, if your gut says "I shouldn't be at home," labor may progress poorly. If you plan a home birth, you must be well prepared and confident of your ability to cope with the pain of labor. A difficult labor may eventually lead to transfer into the hospital for, among other things, pain medication, but you shouldn't start off indecisive about using it.

Baseball | 2009 Bowman, 2009 Bowman Sterling, 2010 Donruss Elite Extra Edition, 2011 Bowman Chome, In The Game, Matt Moore, Tampa Bay Rays | Comments (4)
By Chris Olds | Beckett Baseball Editor
Tampa Bay Rays rookie pitcher Matt Moore's second career start came in Game 1 of the American League Division Series and it went something like this: Seven innings, two hits, two walks, no runs, six strikeouts and a victory over the defending AL champion Texas Rangers.
That news prompted one simple announcement from Topps on Monday that more Moore cards — his first autographs from the company — are coming soon.
"Rookie phenom Matt Moore will be [an] on-card autograph in Bowman Chrome," the company announced. Slated to arrive on Oct. 19, 2011 Bowman Chrome will arrive with one Chrome autograph card in every 18-pack hobby box.
With Moore's September call-up, it won't be his first MLB Rookie Card appearing in Bowman Chrome — just his first autographs from the company. At this time, he appears on 126 different cards in the Beckett.com database with 34 different autographed and 87 different serial-numbered cards.
None of them are an official Rookie Card — and, interestingly, none of them feature game-used memorabilia yet, either. It seems both will have to wait until 2012.
Moore's first MLB cards came in the 2009 Bowman lines — Bowman, Bowman Sterling, Bowman Chrome — while his first autographed cards were released by Panini America in 2010 Donruss Elite Extra Edition. Moore also has signed for In The Game this year and has a small number of autographs appearing in the 2011 Topps Pro Debut minor league set.

Odds it'll be a redemption?

Agreed – it sounds like the chances are good of this being a redemption. If so, it's no longer a compelling chase in my opinion.

ff Elizabeth Street, at the Harlem Railroad embankment, where a kind of tunnel burrowed into a hill of earth and cobbles--the gandy dancers for the line stored sledgehammers and ties and spikes there, for use in making repairs--I was walking late, having trotted about early as well. I was tired of walking, but not, I thought, tired enough to sleep. So I had stopped at Uncle Ned's on the Bowery, at that time a notorious gathering place for gamblers, slaggards too filthy and used to be kept in a respectable house, and, of course, members of gangs like the Rabbits and the Ikes (who called themselves the House of Isaac--as nasty a bunch of Jews as the Rabbits were cannibal Irish). In front of a disused shop once specializing in trusses and like medical devices, and across from the embankment, I came, perhaps a little dizzy from dark rum, upon two white men beating a Negro. He dodged and wheeled, so I knew that he wished to resist; and, as he was burly and fit, broad of shoulder and lean of hip, with long, thick arms, I knew that while he chose to protect his head and face by shielding himself, he had deemed it wise not to give the account of himself of which I believed him capable.
"Hold still, Mose, and let me thrash your woolly head," the fatter of the two whites grunted. He slapped at the Negro with a thick black cane. He panted and sweated, and his face, in the gaslight at the corner stanchion, gleamed in oily unhealth. The other fellow, sturdy but short and quite narrow, swung what seemed to be a leather sap and, from its appearance of weight in his small hand, might have been filled with shot, or rock salt.
The fat one swung, this time with both hands, and he caught the Negro at the junction of neck and shoulder. The Negro went to his knees and seemed inclined to remain there. His breath was deep and uneven, whether from debility or fear I could not tell. I wanted to know. I wanted him to tell me.
"Gentlemen," I called, stopping just behind the smaller one. "Are you certain you have the numbers and the weapons you require? Or should I round up five or six armed men to pitch in and defend you from this fellow?"
The littler man, his sap up, turned to challenge me. I assessed his waxed mustache, his silk waistcoat and bright tan shoes. He said, "God almighty, what are you?"
"What you are not," I said.
"If you must involve yourself. This nigger was told to have a wagonload of textiles here tonight, and he brings us himself but not the goods. We are out money, cloth, and reputation. A deal's gone dead, and he's to be punished. If, as I say, it's your affair."
"As a businessman," I said, "I hate to see a businessman lose face. But is this Negro not a businessman as well? You seem to be on the verge of robbing him, too, of a goodly portion of his face."
"As you seem to have lost most of yours. I wonder in what fashion," the fat one said, puffing and perspiring.
I smiled, but of course they could not tell.
To the black man, I said, "You held back because you thought them police, perhaps?"
He said, "I held back because I thought they were white men."
"Before the law, no whiter than you," I said.
"Look, why don't you, at the law a few more times." He searched my mask with red-rimmed eyes. "You don't have to shave that in the morning, I reckon."
I smiled again. Again, they could not tell.
"I apologize for that," the black man said.
"It was clever," I said, "and levelheaded. Do you understand me about the credentials of these men?"
"And do you understand me?"
"They are men of business. I don't know their commercial bona fides, but I can attest to them as men: They are, barely."
"Sir!" cried the fat one.
"Do you dare?" asked the littler man.
I seized his ear and twisted it. He whimpered, then wept. I kept hold of it with my left hand and gestured, far too dramatically, I fear, with my right. "If he raises his sap or, indeed, his body, I will have his ear for a watch fob. Would you, while we wait upon his course of action, see to--your name, sir? Hodboy? Fatcheek? Commander Bulk, perhaps? For you do throw about your weight with great panache."
The Negro climbed reluctantly, it seemed, to his feet, and he sidled toward the one with the cane, who leaned back from the Negro as that man shifted his balance and made a kind of crooning sound, a statement, I thought, of his reluctance to act. Then, grunting of a sudden, as if it were he, himself, who were struck, the Negro swung his punch. Because the fat man was moving, the blow missed his face and landed with a fearful, solid sound on the fat man's chest. He made a noise like a pig's bladder punctured, and he went a color that, in the gaslight, seemed quite green. I thought he was dead on the spot, but the assault, either to his lungs or his heart, was brief in effect--though it was a long moment in which he seemed suspended, and it must have seemed a good deal longer to the one on whose chest the blow had landed.
The little man whose ear I held made as if to rise, and I applied my thumb more firmly to the juncture of the ear and skull. It was a place, I remembered, where I'd once put a killing shot.
I said to the one whose ear I held, "Get him to his feet once he's able, and lead him away. It would be best to never burden this Negro again with your business arrangements. Make new ones."
I took the sap from his fingers as he stood. I gestured to the Negro--his hands were at his mouth, then eyes; he trembled as he moved his hands upon his face--and I said, "Let's walk, if you will, across the tracks. Down where the hill dips, on the other side."
He stayed where he was, and I saw he was weeping.
"Are you hurt?" I asked, watching the little man try to pry the fat one from the stones of the street. "Was it the blow to your neck?"
He cupped his face in his hands, at last, and he bathed himself in his own tears. Finally his bulkier assailant sat, and I took the Negro's elbow and moved him along with me.
"I never," he said, smearing his nose with the back of his hand.
We crossed the tracks of the Harlem line and went down the incline toward Rivington. There were fewer lights here, and the noises of the Jews in bakery shops and their crowded small rooms came as if from a forest warren one could smell--the sourness of yeast; the sweetness of fresh bread; the rich, dark smells of simmered inner organs of sheep and cow--but one could not descry them; those people were mysterious even in the homeliest of aspects.
Again, he said, as we drew near the coffee shop of Alsatian Jews with whom I had business dealings, "I never."
"What, then? You never what?"
"You were there," he said, though the "there" was almost--not quite--"dere."
"I was."
"You saw. How many of that have you seen?"
"Oh," I said. "Ah. Of course. I beg your pardon."
"You don't ever have to beg me for anything," he said. "Just ax one time."
"You were talking about the blow you struck." "I never even did talk back to a white man. Then I up and hit one." "You surely did. You squashed his breastbone and lit up his lights. You stopped his heart, I think."
"White man's heart."
"What passes for that particular white man's heart."
We stood at the shop, Alain Freres. I knew that he would not come in, so I tugged once more at the cloth of his shirt and we continued east.
"I hit me a white man," he said. "Do I thank you? Or do I curse you? Do I owe you, or do you owe me?"
"Will you tell me your name?"
"Tackabury's Adam is what they call me on the papers I was given. I am a freed man."
"You are all freed."
"Only some can walk around in any circles they choose, and others are freed to do what some white man says."
"Still," I said--as if what he told me was surprising. I did so for his dignity's sake.
He said, "Still, and forever and ever. Amen, if you like."
"Adam, then?"
"It's the name I use. Adam Tackabury."
"Adam. Where do you live?"
"Back that way and down. Centre Street."
"Near the Points. As do I."
"A gentleman in the Points?"
"Two of us gentlemen in the Points. I can find you by asking for Adam?"
He said,"You ax. I'll hear."
"I might, one day." I could smell jute on his shirt, and the wax from seals on cotton. He worked at the docks. I said, "I'm a tradesman, myself."
He nodded, waiting.
"You know a little, I think, about the edge of the river."
"It's how niggers live. On the edge of the water. If they will get to live. Railroad to dock or wagon to dock or brigantine to dock--we are the same as cargo, and we move how cargo moves. So I do know the edge of the river. And you can call on me. Can I know your name?"
"Bartholomew. William Bartholomew."
"Close enough."
"Bartelmy. I'm in your debtedness, Mist Bartelmy."
"You're free, damn it."
"Did you earn that face in freeing me?"
"I do not need to shave it."
"Didn't mean an insult."
"None taken. What is under the mask, I every now and again must shave, however. Beards, you know, grow even on the flesh of the dead. And so with me."
"I did wonder. I do thank you."
"Adam, I won my wound in the pursuit of my own ends. Though I am heartily pleased to see no man enslaved."
"What was the end, Mist Bartelmy?"
"It is a question I haven't ever answered truly, even to myself. I do not know. I cannot learn it. It's an answer I await."
"Yes, sir," he said, as if I were lying.
"In truth," I said.
"Centre Street," he said, dismissing me. "You ax." He clasped his hands, for I think, in spite of his disappointment with me, he would have taken my arm or hand to say his thanks and his confusion. "Adam," he told me. "Ax."
He was the color of the night, and he went into it, and disappeared. For my part, I wandered back in the direction, on a whim, of the embankment where I'd found them beating him. I wondered if I would find a corpulent corpse, or a detective of police. I took from my pocket the sap I'd lifted from the littler assailant, and I threw it into the street. My face, it seemed to me, still stung from the impact of his question about my motives in the War. I was blushing, and I was pleased that neither I nor anyone else could see the furrows and puckers and craters of my face go crimson with what might be shame.

U.S. stocks retreated, sending financial shares to their lowest level in five years, on a deteriorating outlook for bank earnings. Rising oil prices pushed crude producers higher, leaving the Standard & Poor's 500 Index and Dow Jones Industrial Average little changed.
Merrill Lynch & Co., Morgan Stanley and Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. helped lead the drop after Bank of America Corp. cut income estimates for brokerages and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. advised selling bank shares as credit losses linger into 2009. Oil's second day of gains pushed down Home Depot Inc., General Motors Corp. and United Airlines parent UAL Corp., while sending energy shares to their first advance in four days. American International Group Inc., the largest insurer, tumbled to the lowest since 1997 on Barron's recommendation to sell the shares.
Almost two stocks fell for each that rose on the New York Stock Exchange. The S&P 500 rose 0.07 point to 1,318. The Dow decreased 0.33, or less than 0.1 percent, to 11,842.36. The Nasdaq Composite Index slipped 20.35, or 0.9 percent, to 2,385.74.

Interesting interview with George Soros:
WSJ: You argue that the crises we've experienced in the past 25 years have been, in retrospect, "testing events" that convince us the system is stable, encourage us to take even bigger risks, leading to one, cataclysmic collapse. Could this be just another testing event?
Mr. Soros: Each time the authorities saved us, that reinforced the belief that markets are self-correcting. Each time when you bail out the economy, you need to find a new motor, a new source of credit and a new instrument that allows for the credit expansion. [It's] difficult to imagine what you can do when you are already lending effectively 100% on inflated house prices.
I have a record of crying wolf at these times. I did it first in "The Alchemy of Finance" [in 1987], then in "The Crisis of Global Capitalism" [in 1998] and now in this book. So it's three books predicting disaster. [After] the boy cried wolf three times … the wolf really came. If we can sail through this without a recession, then the superbubble story is seriously impacted … I [will] have cried wolf again. Unfortunately, if you go into a recession, [it is not] proof of reflexivity, or vice versa.
WSJ: How is that you are rich despite your world view having been wrong so far?
Mr. Soros: I'm only rich because I know when I'm wrong.
There are no more important or truer words in trading than this: Bad trade, I was wrong, sell out the position. (That sounds strangely familiar) Soros makes it clear that he understands that quite well.
The whole interview is worth a few minutes of your precious weekend time . . .
Hey Greg! Your cube's desk looks awfully clean . . . Oh, that's right — I almost forgot!

Students took turns walking around the cafeteria of Crone Middle School in Naperville last week with a six-legged creature at the end of a leash.
When a student would turn a different direction, the hexapod followed. When the student stopped pulling on the leash, the robot's legs would stop moving.
While not as warm and cuddly as a puppy, parents might find this pet easy to maintain, and it won't have accidents in the house.
The hexapod was just one of the robots that captivated students' interest Thursday to conclude Summer STEAM Team, a summer version of Crone's after-school program that promotes student interest in science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics.
For the past two weeks students engaged in a variety of activities, including green screen technology, three-dimensional printing, turning old books into journals and art projects, and programming.
Kyle Granat, a hardware engineering and outreach coordinator at Trossen Robotics in Downers Grove, brought a handful of robotic kits his company sells to inspire kids to become masters of technology.
Beyond just computers and smart phones, electronic circuitry is involved in people's everyday lives through appliances, lighting and smart-grid utilities. Knowing how to fix a computer or to program will be a necessary skill, he said.
"I would like to think that in the future we will all be engineers in some way," Granat said.
Electronic circuitry even can be incorporated into art and clothing, said Kat Granat, owner of K. Kat Fine Arts.
Kat showed students how the same conventional electronics incorporated into Kyle's robots can be used in the materials she uses in her art.
The artist walked students through the process of sewing a basic circuit onto a small square of fabric so the fabric would light up with tiny LED lights.
Kat works in mixed media, creating jewelry and lighted embroidery works. Her line of embroidery pieces depicts the various constellations where the LED lights are the stars and the thread gives the outline of the character.
"I have a great deal of wonder about the universe," she said.
She said she prefers art that interacts with people or art that can be touched.
Beyond the art aspects, she told students how soft circuitry can be incorporated into lighted shoes, jewelry or other clothing.
One idea that struck a chord with the kids was the stealth hoodie or jackets that can turn off televisions.
Kat explained how a simple circuit and LED lights stitched in a hoodie or jacket can become a TV remote control that will turn off a television when a metal zipper is unzipped.
Sandra Knight, STEAM Team co-coach, said she was thrilled by the turnout for the summer program. She was particularly excited at the number of girls in attendance. On the final day, a quick survey of the kids in attendance showed that more than half of the participants were girls.
"Isn't this great," she said.
Mary Yockey, library media center director and STEAM Team co-coach, said getting Kyle and Kat to visit the school came as a bit of a lark.
Yockey said she was looking to purchase robotic supplies from a local company when she came across Trossen Robotics. It was through the ordering process that Kyle said he and Kat would be willing to stop by and demonstrate what they do every day.
Crone Middle School, which is a part of Indian Prairie School District 204, will continue its after-school STEAM Team program in the fall.Tags: Crone Middle School, Indian Prairie School District 204

If we had more investigative articles like yours that run counter to the government love feast, America would be in much better shape.
The methodology of the rating companies is flawed. How can a highly leveraged company such as an investment bank even get a rating? They are so heavily in debt that when they go broke, they go broke overnight.

As risk consultants and participants in foreign exchange derivatives trading, we're astonished by the amount of leveraged structures marketed as effective corporate foreign exchange hedges and the unprecedented currency moves resulting from the unwinding of these instruments.

Articles such as yours are instrumental in pointing out the need for greater responsibility, accountability and risk transparency in the over-the-counter currency derivative space.

I can never understand how an organization that has survived 100 years can falter after one to two bad years.
Two things are missing from your story: the impact of distance and online education on the college marketplace and enrollment in vocational/technical schools. Both are poised to create substantial competition for campus-based schools.
The challenge is how to make these "alternative" schools more attractive, especially to the above-average, academically inclined student. Prestige at these schools will never prevail.
But will affordability be enough to attract high-caliber students? This is a huge marketing challenge, to which the door has now opened.

Hungary's BUX (BUX) equity index increased 0.6 percent to 16,889.03 by the end of trading in Budapest, after falling 1.3 percent yesterday.
The following were among the most active shares in the Hungarian market today. Stock symbols follow company names.
Mol Nyrt. (MOL) , Hungary's largest oil refiner, climbed 1.2 percent to 16,500 forint, snapping a two-day drop. Today is the last day shares trade with the right to a 454.54 forint dividend from 2011 earnings.
OTP Bank Nyrt. (OTP) , the country's biggest lender, rallied as much as 1.3 percent as lawmakers may vote within two weeks on amendments to the central bank law that take into account criticism from the European Central Bank, Nepszabadsag newspaper reported, citing politicians from the ruling Fidesz party. Bringing the central bank law in line with ECB requirements may unblock bailout talks with the International Monetary Fund and the European Union.
The stock pared gains to less than 0.1 percent at 3,390 forint after Fitch Ratings cut its assessment of 18 of Spain's banks amid concern Europe's debt crisis is worsening.

A really homely recipe that's very quick to put together and is very flexible in terms of ingredients, making it perfect for using up the vegetables in your fridge. The leeks and potatoes are the stars of the show and the bacon adds a depth of flavour but, beyond that, you can bulk it out with any other vegetables you have - I went with cauliflower on this occasion.
Serves 5
- 1.2kg potatoes - I went for a mix of Desire (900g, sliced) and baby new (300g, halved)
- 2 large leeks
- Half a cauliflower
- 16 rashers of smokey bacon
- 1 teaspoon English mustard powder
- 85g of butter
- 30g of flour
- 2 bay leaves
- 400ml double cream
- 500ml milk
- 1 handfull of white breadcrumbs
- Thyme and parsely - dry or fresh
- Drizzle of olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Cut any large potato varieties into 1cm thick discs, any small varieties, such as new potatoes, I like to just cut in half. Parboil (partly boil) in a large pan of salted water until they are almost cooked through but still plenty firm enough to hold their shape. Set aside.
Heat a frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil and a knob of butter. Finely slice the leeks and add to the pan. Fry on a medium heat for around 5 minutes or until nicely softened. Set aside.
To make the white sauce:
Place the butter and flour into a pan and beat together with a fork over a low heat to make a roux. Keep working the mixture together until the butter and flour are amalgamated into a smooth paste.
When this is done, get rid of your fork and take out a whisk. Turn the heat up a touch and start adding the milk a bit at a time so the pan doesn't cool down too much, whisking the mixture all the time. Once the milk is all in, add the bay leaves and start to add the cream.
Once you've added all the cream, continue to stir the sauce with the whisk, and after a few minutes the mixture should start to thicken. Whisk in the mustard powder, thyme and parsely, and season with salt and pepper.
Cut or break your cauliflower into little florets and cut the streaky bacon rashers into 4.
Generously butter a large oven proof dish then add a few spoonfulls of white sauce. Layer the bottom with potatoes then add a few florets of cauliflower and a sprinkling of leeks. Pour on some white sauce then a layer of bacon pieces.
Repeat this process until all the ingredients are gone, or your dish is full, then sprinkle on the breadcrumbs. Make sure the last 3 items you add are white sauce, bacon and breadcrumbs, in that order, so the bacon and breadcrumbs sit on top and become crisp.
Bake in the oven at 180°C for 80 to 90 minutes. You can test the bake by sliding a sharp knife into it - once the potatoes have softened adequately it's ready.

10 Crazy Prices Paid for Sports Memorabilia
T206 1909-11 Honus Wagner card
Selling price: $2.1 million
Legend has it that only about 200 of the cards bearing the Pittsburgh Pirates Hall of Fame shortstop's face were made. Wagner says it's because the company that made them, American Tobacco, was sending a bad message to kids about smoking that he wanted no part of. Historians, however say Wagner smoked and endorsed cigars and was likely more irate about not being paid.
This particular Wagner, known as the "Jumbo" because it is bigger than others in the series, was sold by Goldin Auctions in April. Its $2.1 million price tag isn't even the highest for a card of its kind, though. That honor belongs a version once owned by hockey star Wayne Gretzky that was sold to Arizona Diamondbacks owner Ken Kendrick in 2007 for $2.8 million. That particular card was featured in an ESPN documentary and is at the center of a federal case that alleges the broker who sold the card to Kendrick cut the sides to improve its condition. The owners of the company named in the indictment, Mastro Auctions, have since pleaded guilty to fraud and other charges.It's referred to as the "holy grail" of baseball cards, but there's a whole lot of sin going on around it.

Home News Local News PAC says it has enough signatures in mayor recall effort
PAC says it has enough signatures in mayor recall effort
The head of the group trying to recall Elgin Mayor John Stover said this
week members have gathered the minimum number of signatures needed for a
Polly Parsons, a recall petitioner, said Monday the Elgin Political Action Committee has the requisite 95 signatures, but aims to gather 150 before turning them in."We know there's a possibility of some signatures being disqualified, so we want to make sure we've covered the numbers," Parsons said.
Stover has refused to comment on the recall effort. An attempt to reach him for comment Tuesday was unsuccessful.
The recall effort stems from a long-brewing controversy over Elgin police department issues that came to a head Aug. 1, when Officer Erik Kilpatrick shot Elgin resident Richard Shafer to death in the midst of a domestic disturbance call.
A grand jury ruled the shooting justified, but outrage over that incident plus a host of other police performance issues poured out in subsequent public meetings.
The recall committee makes clear it blames Stover for the city's law enforcement troubles. In the petition, they say Stover's actions "demonstrate a significant lack of required skills, knowledge and ability to serve effectively."
The group accuses the mayor of failing to respond to a petition presented in the summer of 2010 requesting a review of the city police department and voicing citizen concerns regarding abuse of force by local police.
The statement also takes issue with a remark Stover made at a recent council meeting regarding police chief performance evaluations. Stover said in the meeting that the council "overlooked" doing evaluations three years running.
The citizens group refutes that, claiming that a city councilor addressed the need for immediate evaluations in April, but Stover failed to follow through. The citizens charge in their statement that Stover's actions led to the fatal shooting.
The petition statement also accuses Stover of calling and canceling meetings without public notice, contrary to state statutes governing public meetings.
In addition, the group is accusing Stover of a failure to to uphold the Oregon Public Records Law. That accusation stems from a dispute Parsons herself had in regards to a bill for providing her with surveys regarding the police department.
Parsons said Monday that 18 group members worked throughout December to get the needed 95 signatures.
"A couple of them went door-to-door, but I think mostly people just gathered the signatures while they were out and about over the holidays," Parsons said.
Parsons said the group has a definite schedule to follow. Jan. 10-11, it will review petitions, count signatures and verify legal requirements.
If 150 or more signatures are verified by the group by Jan. 12, the petitions will be delivered to local elected officials. If not, the group will hit the streets again.
"If we have not met the goal (of 150), we will continue gathering," Parsons said.
The deadline for submitting the signatures is 5 p.m. March 7, but Parsons said she doubts the group will need that much time.
"We do not plan to use the full allotted time. We will submit petitions as soon as possible," she said.
After the signatures are submitted, Union County Clerk Robin Church has 10 days to verify them and give Stover the choice of submitting a rebuttal statement or resigning. If an election is necessary, the clerk must schedule it within 35 days.
Parsons said her group is preparing for an election, in the event that Stover decides to try and ride out the tide. A fundraising campaign is under way, with an account in the group's name set up at Bank of America's La Grande branch.
Parsons said the money will be used for outreach to city residents.
"If there's going to be an election, we'll get information out. We'll do a direct mailing to 973 voters," she said.

Gym rat, you called it. I woke up today feeling like I am coming down with cold. I have far too much to do to be sick right now, so I took some vitamin C, I'm using my netipot, and I should probably gargle with some of that Apple cider. I wanted to do some yoga this morning, but I may hold off. I am now remembering that a woman who was next to me in yoga last week had a horrible cold, and although I wanted to move my mat, I did not. Perhaps, I should have.
work today, meeting with the lawyer for a second opinion, and then I pick up one of my customers to go to my dinner program tonight. I probably will not get home until 11 tonight. Yikes, all work and no play makes me a sick boy. Hot tea and honey sounds good. :D

FSN, I'm sorry I was right. Put getting your IgG tested on your to-do list. Seriously. I would bet money at this point that you have a compromised immune system but the beauty there is that one little injection can fix it. In the meantime, you might consider adding Alkalol to your nasal rinses. It's OTC but it's usually kept behind the pharmacy counter. It has antiseptic properties and can keep things from turning into an infection. If you get some, don't more put than a tablespoon in. It's pretty potent stuff.
I'm taking a rest day today. I've been working for a couple hours already and am headed to the allergy lab this afternoon for injections. Happy, yes, the fundraiser is noodle related.
|Wed, 03-19-2014 - 1:56pm
Hope you get better soon. Even more, that you're able to get the rest you need. There was an article about "Overwhelmia" in suburban moms and how they can't rest, except to get together to chat about how they can't rest. Having jumped off the "success" track, I don't have to deal w/ that but I see it in most women here. I really believe it's one reason I haven't been sick since 1999 (knock wood).
I had a couple of clients this morning, actual training which I haven't done in a while. I really enjoyed it. I think I've needed the break I had the past couple of months. I also had an advice client, was shadowed by a doctor who told me she really learned a lot from me and loved following the session. I don't work many hours there but I do enjoy that part of my job a lot. As my sister put it, you couldn't have hand written a better position for me--being paid to give advice on working out and being healthy. I think I'm taking a rest day today. Taking two days off is working for me for ski season.

As you know, it's all about fit but different trainers have different focuses so it might be good for you to do something else. I'm looking forward to hearing about your possible new life!

Being a snowbird sounds ideal. I'd probably do the reverse where I'd want to be near skiing in the winter. Maybe we could work out a time share! I completely get where you're coming from as being alone goes. I relish being alone, especially given what I do and that I'm surrounded by people all the time AND have to be upbeat and motivating. In the beginning when I started, I used to come home and have to decompress but the family was there and didn't get that I needed quiet, alone time. I didn't get that I needed quiet, alone time. But, we had been talking on this board about functional introverts and the more I read about it, the more it made sense. I'm not an extreme introvert, but when I'm around people for too long, I need to be alone. And, I don't need to be w/ people, even when I'm around others. I have no problems going to a restaurant or class and being by myself. Given that I'm pretty outgoing, people around me don't get that I'm that way. So, yes, I can understand your feelings about your trainer and being connected but not.

Communication Revolution
Trade Paperback · 301 Pages
The New Press
Recommended for These Courses
In Communication Revolution—both a sharp and cogent analysis of the history of media studies and a clarion call for citizen participation—Robert McChesney argues that with the Internet and wireless technology set to overtake traditional media, we have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to build a more egalitarian communication system. He brilliantly shows how communication scholarship has failed to rise to the challenge of conceiving what this system might look like, leaving it to the burgeoning media reform movement (in which he has been a key player) to fill the vision vacuum.
Bringing both his authoritative analysis and unparalleled historical knowledge to bear on an urgent issue of our time, McChesney challenges us to transform the way we think about media. As Noam Chomsky has said, "Robert McChesney's work has been of extraordinary importance… . It should be read with care and concern by people who care about freedom and basic rights."

The last post I made talked about how I needed to make a little more money somehow or my family was shortly going to run out. I set a goal of trying to make or cut spending by an extra $500 a month. We ended up saving by switching daycare to one that is not only $200 a month cheaper, but provides better care, better food, their own wipes, and allows us to use our cloth diapers which really saves us even more money.
Work has also agreed to give me a few extra hours every week which has resulted in overtime that earns me about $100-$125 more a week. Add that all up and Ive met my goal. (Around a $600 a month savings/earnings)
The next goal is to save up enough for two new vehicles. My old car is just falling apart and is soon going to become a money pit. I'm thinking about purchasing two used vehicles. A car for me to get back and forth to work and a family vehicle large enough to load larger items and to supply enough room for s growing family.
Im going to go through all the extra stuff in the house that we don't need or want any more and sell some things off little by little to start putting away for some down payments. Im still open to some other suggestions on things I can do or cut to save.
