Cincinnati police to get body cameras; early streetcar pass available; Ark Park wants to correct "myths"
All right y'all. After a brief delay while I listened to a presentation about health insurance (as captivating as it sounds) I'm here with the news this morning. Cincinnati's 600-strong uniformed police force will eventually be equipped with body cameras after a seven-month pilot program involving West Side officers wrapped up this week. The move comes as activists around the country call for more police accountability in the wake of recent police shootings of unarmed citizens. Cincinnati's body camera program will cost anywhere from $500,000 to $2 million depending on which vendor the city chooses. Cincinnati City Council's Law and Public Safety committee has pledged to help find funds, and Cincinnati Police Chief Jeffery Blackwell will be making a trip to Washington to ask the federal government for some of the money as well. Officers involved in the pilot program said the cameras they tested aren't perfect and expressed concerns about privacy for victims of crime and whether what is filmed will end up as public record. Some activists around the country have called for federal rules requiring police wear body cameras, and President Barack Obama announced last week an plan to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to help equip police departments with the technology. Others, however, question the efficacy of the method, pointing to the death of Eric Garner, who died after being placed in a choke hold by police in July. The officer who placed Garner in a headlock was not indicted by a grand jury despite video footage of the incident.• Though the streetcar is months away from being operational, you can still give the transit fanatic (or skeptic) in your life a rail-themed Christmas gift. Starting today, SORTA is offering a commemorative early pass for the Cincinnati streetcar allowing unlimited rides for periods of time after the streetcar opens. You can get the $25 card for those members of your family who are afraid of downtown and with whom you argued about the streetcar this Thanksgiving. Maybe some free rides will change their minds. Or they'll hate it and give it to you to use. Win-win. They, or you, will be able to ride cost-free for the first 15 days the streetcar is operating. You can step it up for the serious streetcar supporter and get the $50 or $100 cards, which give the recipient 30 and 60 days of fare-free riding, respectively. These are the first physical items issued to the public for the transit project, which I'm sure will be interesting to some folks.• Answers in Genesis, the religious group behind a controversial Noah's Ark theme park in Grant County, Ky., has launched a billboard campaign it says seeks to correct "myths" about the project. The park has raised eyebrows because it could receive state tax credits even though its parent company makes its employees sign statements affirming their Christian religious beliefs. If the park did the same with prospective employees, it would not be eligible for help from the state. The state's Tourism Development Finance Authority has preliminarily approved a 10-year tax incentive package for the park that could be worth up to $18 million on the $73 million project. National advocates for the separation of church and state have cried foul at the deal, saying it violates state and federal non-discrimination laws. The Ark group, however, says they'll comply with those laws for the park. They're fighting back with 16 billboards in Frankfort, Louisville and Lexington directing people to their website. They've also sprung for an electronic billboard ad running in New York City's Times Square for some reason."With this new billboard campaign, the attention-grabbing wording will get people to visit our website, where they will discover the truth about our full-size Ark and learn how some intolerant people are trying to keep it from succeeding," the group said in an email news release. • The Ohio Board of Education will meet today and discuss eliminating rules that require public schools in Ohio to hire art and music teachers, librarians and other specialized staff. The so-called "5 of 8" rule could be on the chopping block because some local control advocates say it amounts to an unfunded mandate on local schools from the state. However, those who support the rule say it ensures that all schools have faculty who can teach vital subjects and perform other necessary duties. They say eliminating the rule will hurt low-income students, whose cash-strapped schools will be most likely to drop the positions. • State Rep. Alicia Reece formally introduced the so-called "John Crawford's Law" yesterday, which would require toy guns to be brightly colored to distinguish them from real weapons. The bill aims to prevent police shootings like the one that happened in August at a Beavercreek Walmart, where Crawford was shot while holding a BB gun. More recently, Tamir Rice, a 12-year-old, was shot and killed for holding a toy pistol on a playground in Cleveland. In a puzzling addition, the law would also limit where a person can carry a BB gun, even though Ohio remains an open carry state where you can tote around your real gun almost anywhere you please.

Hunter won't get new trial; Reds bling for sale; Republicans sink tax cuts for low-income
Hey all. Here's the news this morning.Former Hamilton County Juvenile Court Judge Tracie Hunter won't get a new trial, a judge has ruled. Hamilton County Judge Norbert Nadel has denied all three of Hunter's motions for retrial after she was convicted last month of one of eight felony counts in relation to her time as judge. Since her conviction, three jurors have recanted their guilty verdicts, however, and Hunter's attorney has alleged procedural mistakes mean she should get a new trial. With those motions denied, Hunter will be sentenced this Friday. She plans to file an appeal on her conviction.• Cincinnati must pay Duke Energy $15 million for moving utilities that stood in the way of the streetcar, a Hamilton County judge ruled Monday. The city already had that money in escrow as it awaited the ruling but plans to appeal Judge Carl Stich's decision. That's a good move, according to former city solicitor John Curp. Curp says the way Stich decided the case — by declaring the streetcar an "economic development project" — could set a hard precedent for other Ohio cities in the future. In order for Cincinnati to avoid paying Duke to move the utilities, the project would have to be something that benefits the city's general welfare. Stich cited cases from the 1930s and the 1950s to justify his decision. Back then, public transit was run by private companies, a much different situation than today. Curp thinks the Ohio Supreme Court might have a different opinion of the streetcar and should hear the case to set a more modern precedent on transit projects.• Do you have about $6,000 just sitting around taking up valuable space that could be used to, say, store an enormous ring? Do you need a sports-themed piece of jewelry so ostentatious no one will ever question your love for America's favorite pastime? If so, I have a solution to both of your weird, unlikely problems. A Cincinnati Reds 1990 World Series ring has gone up for sale at a local auction house, and for a few grand you can make it yours. But be advised: It's not Chris Sabo or Eric Davis' ring. Heck, it's not even Glenn Sutko's, who saw action in one game that season. It belonged to one of the team's part-time accountants, who I'm sure did great work counting the Reds' money. Every position is important on a winning team. Anyway, it's big, it's red, it has the logo on it and you should buy the ring. Or, I dunno, you could buy me a nice used car instead. Up to you.• So it's no secret the state's Democratic party is hurting after last month's disastrous statewide election. Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redfern stepped down after losing his own state representative seat to a guy accused of burglary. Now there's a scramble to take his spot, and former Cincinnati city councilman and recent attorney general candidate David Pepper is a frontrunner. But he's got a challenge ahead of him in becoming the top Dem in the state: Ohio's powerful Sen. Sherrod Brown has backed one of his opponents, former candidate for lieutenant governor Sharen Neuhardt, for the job. Pepper still sees himself as a front-runner in the contest to lead Democrats in one of the country's most important swing states ahead of the 2016 presidential election. The new state chair will be decided by a vote within the party Dec. 16.• Chicago City Council voted yesterday to raise the city's minimum wage to $13 an hour over the next five years. The move was a proposal by Mayor Rahm Emanuel ahead of proposed Illinois laws that could hamstring city governments when it comes to raising minimum wages and February's Chicago mayoral election. The boost is expected to benefit about 400,000 workers in the city. Other cities like Seattle have passed similar increases recently.• Finally, Republicans have scuttled an extension on tax cuts for low-income and middle class workers while pushing bigger corporate tax breaks. The cuts were part of a $400 billion bipartisan tax deal lawmakers in Washington were working to put together. But President Barack Obama's announcement last month of an executive action allowing some undocumented immigrants to stay in the country has killed the deal as Republicans pull back from the low-income tax cuts like the Earned Income Tax Credit and double down on the corporate breaks. They say undocumented immigrants will take advantage of the EITC and other credits in large numbers and therefore can't support the cuts. Translation: Obama made us mad so we're taking the ball that keeps millions out of poverty and going home.

NAACP officially chooses Cincy for 2016 convention; People's Liberty announces grantees; Obama pushes wearable cameras for cops
So my morning donut routine took a dramatic turn today when a box truck plowed into Servatii downtown right before I got there. The whole building was filled with smoke. It looked crazy, and I hope everyone is OK. I'm going to try not to take this as a sign from the universe that I should cut back on Servatii's double chocolate cake donuts. Anyway, here's your news.The NAACP made it official this morning: The civil rights group is coming to Cincinnati for its 2016 national convention. The convention will put the city in the political spotlight and bring millions of dollars from visitors. Cincinnati last hosted the gathering in 2008 when both Sens. John McCain and Barack Obama came to town as part of their campaigns for president. This time around should be equally auspicious. Two-thousand-sixteen promises a heated presidential race, Cleveland is getting the GOP National Convention and Columbus is in the running for the Democrats' big get together that year. The NAACP indicated in October it was leaning toward Cincinnati pending a site visit, an announcement that surprised Baltimore, which had presumed it had the convention.• 3CDC Executive Vice President Chad Munitz is leaving the organization to get back into real estate development. He currently works on asset and capital management for the group. Munitz, who previously served as economic development director with the city of Cincinnati, joined 3CDC in 2006. The development company has not indicated plans for replacing him. • Local grant-making organization Peoples Liberty, funded by the Haile Foundation, launched over the summer with a pledge to fund plans from everyday citizens in a diverse, inclusive manner. "This is not going to be a playhouse for the hip," the group's CEO Eric Avner said over the summer. "We will talk to everybody. We will listen to everybody. We will do it with intention."The group just announced its first two big winners: two guys named Brad. Both will receive $100,000 and a year to work on their projects. One Brad, last name Cooper, will use his money to pay himself a small salary and make two tiny houses in Over-the-Rhine, which he's hoping to sell for $85,000 each. The 200-square-foot homes will be affordable, provided someone can secure financing and the thousands of dollars needed for a down payment. Affordable is a relative term here and seems not to be the main goal of the project. Cooper stressed in an Enquirer article that the idea is about promoting the small-living movement, which has been getting increasing attention over the past few years. "This is not for poor people," Cooper said. "This is for a wide variety of people who choose this as a lifestyle."Just don't call them playhouses for the hip.The other winner is Brad Schnittger, who will be using his $100,000 to create a music licensing library for area musicians so they can sell their songs to movies, TV and advertising groups. Musicians will pay a small initial fee and then keep all the money they make selling music. Schnittger plays with local vets the Sundresses, so he knows a thing or two about the music industry. He says he thinks this will help Cincinnati's music scene take things up a notch.• Former Juvenile Court Judge Tracie Hunter will be in court again today as a county judge hears the last of her motions for a new trial. Hunter was convicted last month on one felony count after she allegedly intervened in the firing of her brother, a juvenile court guard who allegedly hit an inmate. Hunter has filed three motions for retrial, saying there were procedural errors and juror misconduct during the trial. Three jurors have said they've changed their minds about their guilty verdicts, though it appears too late for those to be overturned. If Hunter's last motion for a new trial is denied today, she has said she will appeal her conviction.• Let's jump right to national news for the finale. President Obama yesterday proposed a $263 million, three-year package that would increase training for police officers, work on needed reforms in law enforcement and spend $75 million on small cameras worn by police on their lapels. Obama made the announcement in the wake of ongoing protests over a Missouri grand jury's decision not to indict Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson, who shot unarmed 18-year-old Michael Brown in August.

Strict anti-abortion bill passes committee in Ohio House; Cincy Red Bike may expand; Obama announces action on immigration, conservatives predict "anarchy" and "violence"
Before news, let's talk chili. Yesterday, true to my word, I checked out Cretan's Grill in Carthage as part of my quest to discover the city's smaller independent chili parlors. Excellent start. I paid five bucks for two coneys and a ton of fries. The chili was great — a little sweeter and meatier than say, Skyline. Where should I go next week? Anyway, a lot of stuff happened yesterday. News stuff. So let's get to it. Republican Hamilton County Commissioners Chris Monzel and Greg Hartmann have agreed to pay $281,000 to keep open the possibility the county could acquire a former hospital in Mount Airy. The commissioners made the move in anticipation of possibly renovating the building to house several county offices, though they have made it clear those renovations will not happen in the coming year. County Administrator Christian Sigman originally proposed a 2015 budget with a .25 percent sales tax increase to pay for renovations so that the county coroner, crime lab and board of elections along with other offices could occupy the building. Monzel and Hartmann have signaled they will not support a sales tax increase, however, and want a long-term plan for how the former Mercy hospital might be used.• As we reported last night, the Ohio Department of Health has renewed the Elizabeth Campbell Surgical Center's license, meaning Cincinnati's last clinic providing abortions will stay open. Planned Parenthood had filed a lawsuit against the state after the clinic in Mount Auburn was cited for lacking a transfer agreement with an area hospital. The clinic had an agreement with UC Hospital, but lost it when a law forbidding state-funded hospitals from entering into transfer agreements with abortion providers was passed last year. The clinic applied 14 months ago for an exception to that rule because it has doctors on staff with individual admitting privileges with nearby hospitals. • Cincinnati Red Bike may be expanding soon. The nonprofit bike sharing company that Cincinnati City Council boosted last year with $1 million in startup funds has been a big success, beating ridership projections in its opening weeks this summer. Currently, Red Bike has 30 stations in downtown, Over-the-Rhine, and uptown near UC. The company has been talking with Northern Kentucky officials about possibly putting additional stations in places like Covington and Newport. Red Bike is also considering putting new stations in places like Longworth Hall downtown and Burnet Woods in Clifton. • More bad local media news. Scripps Networks Interactive, a Nashville-based entertainment company that produces HGTV, the Food Network and the Travel Channel, is closing its Cincinnati office and shedding the 150 positions based here. The company spun off from Cincinnati-based E.W. Scripps in 2008 and employs about 2,000 people total.• A bill that would ban abortions in Ohio once a fetus has a detectable heartbeat passed committee yesterday and will now make its way to a vote in the full Ohio House. The legislation, which could outlaw abortions as early as six weeks into a pregnancy, would be one of the most restrictive in the country if passed. Bill cosponsors Reps. Christina Hagan, R-Alliance and Lynn Wachtmann, R-Napoleon have said they see the legislation as a means for challenging Roe v. Wade in the Supreme Court. If they want a legal battle over the bill, they'll probably get it. The American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio has threatened a lawsuit if the measure makes it into law, which has some conservatives, including Gov. John Kasich, wary of passing the bill. Federal courts have found similar bans in other states unconstitutional, and a lawsuit challenging the ban could also jeopardize other anti-abortion laws in the state, conservative lawmakers feel. The measure barely made it through the House's Health and Aging Committee. Several last-minute swaps of committee members were performed so that there would be enough committee members present and so that those supporting the bill would outnumber those opposed. The proposal passed 11-6 after three Republicans and one Democrat were swapped out of the committee. That's… kinda sketchy. • Finally, President Barack Obama announced yesterday evening he would take sweeping executive action to grant relief to millions of undocumented immigrants currently living in the United States. Up to five million immigrants could be shielded from deportation by the action, which directs immigration officials and law enforcement to focus on criminals instead of families. It's a huge move, and one that has drawn a lot of attention. Conservatives have gone nuts over the announcement. Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn predicted instances of "anarchy" and "violence" as a result of the move, and many other GOP officials have called Obama's power play an illegal use of presidential power. Obama has countered that every president has used executive actions and that Congress should focus on passing legislation to fix America's broken immigration system.

Court upholds Ohio same-sex marriage ban; McConnell says likely no tolls for Brent Spence; this 100-year-old transit map is crazy
Hey all. Here's what's going on around the city and beyond this morning.The 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati ruled yesterday to uphold same-sex marriage bans in Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, and Tennessee. You can read more right here about that ruling, and whether it means a Supreme Court case on same-sex marriage.• Freshly reelected Sen. Mitch McConnell has weighed in again on the Brent Spence Bridge dilemma. The bridge, which is 50 years old and functionally obsolete, though still structurally sound, will need replacing. That comes with a hefty $2 billion price tag, however, which neither Kentucky nor the federal government seems eager to pay for. One solution proposed has been a toll road over the bridge, but that idea has met with stiff opposition from a cadre of Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati-area politicians, business leaders and others. McConnell said yesterday that opposition isn't likely to fade anytime soon, but that there may be a possible solution… corporate tax breaks. He sees the potential for more highway funds that could be used for projects like the bridge through a corporate tax fix that he says could lure more companies back to the U.S.• McConnell's fellow Republican Kentucky Senator Rand Paul dreamed up that highway funds proposal, and McConnell says he's "intrigued." There's another news item here entirely, and one perhaps more interesting on the national stage. McConnell and Paul, who have had some cold relations in the past, have been pretty warm to each other lately, and McConnell has signaled he'd be supportive of a Paul presidential bid in 2016.• A bill to simplify Ohio's tax system may also cost the state's municipalities a ton of cash. The potential law would change the way businesses like construction companies are taxed, possibly cutting into municipal tax receipts. Mayor John Cranley, along with other regional political leaders, are fighting the bill, and may try to introduce a statewide ballot initiative should the bill pass in the Ohio Statehouse. • Kentucky's Lt. Governor Jerry Abramson is on his way out of the state, heading for the White House. He'll be a deputy assistant to President Obama, helping the prez and the federal executive branch coordinate with other governmental bodies, including state, county, city and tribal governments. Given the huge ideological divide between supporters of local and federal power, that sounds like a really, really fun job.• A small group of protesters have gathered outside the Hamilton County Courthouse today to draw attention to what they say is a serious problem: drug overdoses in area jails and prisons. Many attendees are members of anti-heroin groups who have had family members of friends die of overdoses. They're questioning how the drug is able to make its way to people behind bars. The region is suffering from a severe heroin crisis, with overdose deaths increasing significantly in the past few years.• So, now that Republicans control the Senate, will the new top Senator on science be Texas' Ted Cruz, a noted climate-change denier? Could happen. Cruz looks to be next in line for chair of the Senate Subcommittee on Science and Space. Republican Sen. James Inhofe, another doubter when it comes to climate change science, looks likely to chair the Senate Committee on the Environment and Public Works, which is also going to be a big change-up.• Finally in our truncated Friday edition of morning news, I have a confession: There are many things in this world I'm a huge dork about, but history, maps and public transit are all near the top. That said, I just want you to take a look at this amazing, 100-year-old 3-dimensional transit ridership map from Germany. Dang man.

Jac's roundup of pop culture news and Internet findings
HBO's True Detective came to an end Sunday with an intense finale to the anthology series' premiere season. Over the course of eighth action-packed and thought provoking episodes, fans watched detectives Marty Hart and Rust Cohle work a case for nearly two decades. Like American Horror Story, next season will take on a new set of detectives working another case in a different setting. When so many shows judge success by the number of seasons they're able to churn out, it's refreshing to enjoy a complete story, from beginning to end, in such a condensed amount of time. The finale garnered so many viewers on HBO Go, the live-stream service crashed Sunday night. But no amount of acclaim and popularity protects a show from parodies — quite the contrary, it seems. Here are a few gems: And if you're hungry for another crime drama, Breaking Bad's Vince Gilligan has a new show in the works. Battle Creek, starring Dean Winters (Law & Order: SVU, 30 Rock, The Mayhem Guy) and Josh Duhamel (Las Vegas, Win a Date with Tad Hamilton, Fergie's hubby) and will follow two detectives named Milton and Russ. Hmmm... Calling all Swansons: Want to disappear off the Internet? LifeHacker has some tips for erasing your social media footprints to stay off the grid. RIP Ke$ha! No, the trash-pop "singer" didn't meet an untimely demise, but the $ in her stage name (turns out Kesha is her actual birth name) did. Upon her exit from rehab for an eating disorder, Kesha unveiled a new twitter handle, @KeshaRose, which revealed she was dropping the $. It's always great to see people get healthy, and using a dollar sign as a letter in your name is fucking stupid, but what will these changes mean for her music/celeb persona? Can the girl who popularized whiskey as dental hygiene make the leap to squeaky-clean good girl? And speaking of hot mess makeovers, the new Oprah-backed Lindsay Lohan docu-series Lindsay premiered on OWN Sunday. The mighty O offered Linds $2 million to complete the filming of eight episodes for her network (in addition to one-on-one interviews aired throughout the show). The premiere was considerably boring for being the first "real," inside look at the troubled star's personal life. Honestly, it felt more like Celebrity Hoarders than anything. There were some genuinely sad moments — Lindsay was essentially forced to skip an AA meeting due to a crowd of stalkerly paparazzi threatening the others' anonymity; she struggles to find a stable apartment she so desperately needs for her continuing recovery because no one wants her in their building (without a hefty insurance fee) — and some thinly veiled digs at the actress — an optimistic Linds explains how proud she feels to be independent, only to have the screen cut to her personal assistant moving all of her belongings from one hotel room to another without help. But if the series trailer is any indication, drama is forthcoming — particularly in a scene where Oprah tells LL to "cut the bullshit." Zach Galifianakis has been entertaining audiences with his spoof-talk show Between Two Ferns since 2008. The comedian has interviewed some of the most famous actors and personalities as well as Tila Tequila. The latest episode raises the bar by featuring none other than Barack Obama, further proving that the prez should just move to Hollywood in 2017. It is also revealed that Galifianakis has not been filming his segments in some public access studio, but rather the White House. Enjoy: Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis: President Barack Obama from President Barack Obama Everyone with a human heart loves ice cream, but perhaps no one appreciates a good soft-serve cone more than this dog. Lena Dunham hosted Saturday Night Live last week. The Girls creator did a fine job with the material she was given, which is pretty much the overall consensus of this season (writers, up ya game!). One highlight was how SNL dealt with Girls. Obviously they have to address the show, her nudity and the ridiculous characters in it, but without relying on it as the punchline for every joke. Instead, the Girls spoofery was limited to a previously filmed faux trailer for (The First) Girl, complete with the reprisal of Taran Killam's spot-on Adam impression. Lena Dunham - The 1st Girl (Eve) - SNL 3-8-14 by IdolxMuzicCate Blanchett, Rooney Mara, Sarah Paulson, Kyle Chandler and other stars are in Cincinnati right now for the filming of the upcoming movie, Carol. We're keeping a close watch on Paulson's Twitter (she's the only star that has an account) and, according to our research, so far she has definitely been to CVG airport and a local CVS. Keep @CityBeatCincy abreast of any celeb spottings you may experience during this magical time!

Mexico drug war + Drugs trade
Data visualisations are often calm affairs nowadays - subtle colours and shapes. Not this one - but then, neither is the subject. From drugs blog Rehab International, this explores the rise in drug violence in Mexico
Murders in Mexico's drug wars have been detailed in a huge new release of crime data - see how they look
In the last of a three-part series, Rory Carroll asks a former gang member how he was drawn into a world of kidnapping, torture and killing
Ambulance crews continue to aid victims of drugs violence despite their members being threatened and attacked
A man held for ransom by one of Mexico's most brutal drugs gangs tells of beatings and constant killing of other captives
Fear as the old troubles remain unsolved while the country reels from the worst wave of violence since the revolution
In the first of a three-part investigation, Rory Carroll reports from the gateway to America, at the centre of drug cartel violence that has claimed 28,000 lives
Soon after taking office in December 2006, President Felipe Calderón launched a military offensive against Mexico's drug cartels. Between then and the end of July 2010, 28,353 people were killed in fighting between state forces and the traffickers, and in turf battles between rival criminal groups

I think this early in the pregnancy hormones are to blame for the increased urination. It slows down during the 2nd trimester... and returns again when the baby is actually sitting; kicking; or punching our bladders.

Yep, at this early stage of the game (1st Trimester), it's hormones to blame for bladder urges. ;)

Wash Separately!!!
Julie Thompson
Member since
I just bought this Billabong Romper in Wavy Navy! It fits well and looks very cute! Perfect for a lunch date or over a bathing suit to wear to the beach! I wore it to run errands and got lots of compliments! My only complaint is that this must be washed separately! I washed it with another Volcom Jumper (also very cute!) that I just purchased and the blue bled all over it in the wash and it is now ruined after only one wear! :(

Showing 1 review for MB Quart ONX1.1000D
|Customer Review Summary for MB Quart ONX1.1000D
|August 5, 2012
|average amp
Review by
John from Houston, TX
I have this powering a 12" alpine type r wired to 2 ohms so it should be getting ~750w rms from this amp. Decided to get this amp because i wanted to get more power to my sub so i switch from a 5 channel JL 500/5 to (2 amps) an MB Quart ONX4.80 and an MB Quart ONX1.1000D.
Don't get me wrong, this amp has power but what i find weird is that it doesn't sound that much more powerful than my JL Audio 500/5 amp that only puts 250wrms to the sub. Also, the JL definitely sounds cleaner and the mb quart is just slightly louder, like really slightly.
Also, i do like that the amp runs cool and has never shut off on me. That's always a plus. Overall decent.

Tim Cook reportedly responding to customer emails
We'll miss a lot of things about Steve Jobs being at Apple in the CEO position, but one loss will be his tendency to answer all kinds of customer emails in person, no matter what the topic (or time of day). There's hope, though: MacRumors has our first reported "TimMail," in which new CEO Tim Cook has taken the time out to personally answer a customer emailing him congrats about his new promotion.
You can see it in the image above -- like Steve, Tim seems to be a man of few words who uses them well. The "War Eagle" cry is a reference to Cook's alma mater, Auburn University, where apparently he remains a fan. Good to see that Cook is apparently continuing the tradition of answering emails as CEO -- we'll have to see how he reacts when the messages go from simple congratulations to issues that might be a little tougher to deal with.

Last year Lyons Economic Development Commission (EDC) Chair John O'Brien wrote a grant proposal to the FDA to set up a Lyons Revolving Loan Fund to help local businesses expand their operations and thus create more local jobs, an increase in sales tax revenues, and a stronger more vibrant local economy. The grant proposal was approved, and the Lyons Revolving Loan Fund received approximately $50,000 of "seed" money.
The Lyons Dairy Bar, owned and operated by Kenyon and Juli Waugh, was the first business to apply for and receive a business loan from the Lyons Revolving Loan program (right around the time of the flood). Due to the evacuation of the town and the almost total shutdown of the

Tribes Are Using TANF Flexibility To Establish Their Own Programs

Under welfare reform, American Indian tribes have the option to run Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) programs either alone or as part of a consortium of other tribes rather than receiving benefits and services from state TANF programs. Because of the difficult economic circumstances on many reservations, the law also gives tribal TANF programs more flexibility to design their programs than it gives to states. Tribes have used various strategies to stimulate economic development; however, unemployment and poverty rates remain high on reservations, and prospects for economic growth are limited. Nationally, the number of American Indian families receiving TANF assistance has declined significantly in recent years. On some reservations, however, caseloads have remained the same or increased. American Indians represent an increasing proportion of the total TANF caseload in some states. To date, 172 tribes, either alone or as part of a consortium, have used the act's flexibility to design and administer their own TANF programs. Tribes face challenges in implementing tribal TANF programs, including a lack of (1) reliable data on the number of American Indian TANF recipients; (2) infrastructure support, such as information systems; and (3) experience and expertise in administering welfare programs.

CORPUS CHRISTI - Girls who begin dieting at a young age may face health problems later in life.
That's according to a new study, which found that the younger the girl was when she began her first diet, the more likely she was to have an eating disorder.
Cassandra Guerra started dieting her freshman year of high school, when she was only 100 pounds.
"It would affect my body," she said. "Also emotionally, I never thought about that. I was just always concerned about being so thin and fitting in... and being popular like all the other girls were."
Now, she teaches classes to encourage kids not to go the unhealthy route she did. She tells them that "healthy is the new thin," and to focus on being fit, not losing weight.
"I feel that if you live a healthier lifestyle," said Guerra. "There would be no need to be on a diet."
Guerra said families should encourage each other to be healthier, together.

Steve Williams to Attend 34th Annual IAJE Conference
By Steve Williams
Salt Lake City, UT – I'm attending the 34th Annual International Association of Jazz Educators (IAJE) conference in NYC in early January.
This is the largest assembly of Jazz industry people in the world. Players, educators, Radio and TV people along with promoters and record company folks.
The big band of high school students from all over Utah, who are part of the Crescent High School Super Band out of American Fork's Music School, under the direction of Caleb Chapman, have been invited to play for the opening of the conference in Manhattan. They will play with trumpeter, band leader Doc Severinsen, who used to front The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson for many years and is a terrific player.
The director, Chapman was awarded KUER's Voice Of Jazz Award this past summer
at the Park City Jazz Festival, by me.
The students, ages sixteen to eighteen, are very excited to be the opening act with such a famous musician playing out in front of them, as leader and soloist. They are terrific young players, who've knocked out big time jazz players all over the world.
They've asked me to be there as a cheerleader for them and a couple of weeks ago I had Caleb and a couple of the young students on the air with me to talk about their fund raising concert this past November the 29th. The benefit concert was for raising funds to send the band to NYC for this event.
Go Utah Jazz Musicians!

Has anyone built up the Anthem X 29er with a FOX 32 TALAS 29 120 FIT Terralogic?
My idea is to buy the new 2012 frameset when it comes out and build it up with a Fox 32 Talas fork which has adjustable travel of either 95mm or 120mm. This would give me the 95mm for fast XC single-track but would also give me 120mm for improved downhill performance in Super-D and general trail riding.
The weight between the 2 is almost identical. Can anyone think of any negatives to this setup or other thoughts?

Do you remember where you were ten years ago?
If it was a Thursday night in Miami, chances are pretty damn good you were making your way to ¡Fuacata!, a hot new party at La Pequeña Habana's Hoy Como Ayer. And if you weren't heading to check out Spam Allstars, you were no doubt hearing about it.
To see the throwdown for yourself, you knew all the buzz was warranted. Everyone crammed into that small space on Calle Ocho as it turned to standing room only, people happily grinding into one another like puppets, helpless to resist the infectious rhythms pulling their strings.
2212 SW Eighth St.
Miami, FL 33135
Category: Bars and Clubs
Region: Central Dade
It was a great sea of bodies, pitching and surging with the tide of the music coming from the deft hands of the band onstage. And the ensemble that made those parties the place to get your groove on back in 2001 still fills Hoy Como Ayer every Thursday night in 2011, as ¡Fuacata! celebrates its ten-year anniversary.
That's a decade of celebs — like Prince, Mick Jagger, and Ricky Martin — popping in to party. That's a decade of Spam Allstars creating singularly cohesive free-form jams and seemingly endless descarga. That's a decade of furious getdown.
Here's to you, Spam Allstars. Happy anniversary!

|English Heritage
|Site history
Conisbrough Castle is a 12th-century castle in Conisbrough, South Yorkshire, England, whose remains are dominated by the 97-foot-high (30 m) circular keep, which is supported by six buttresses. In the mid-1990s, the keep was restored, with a wooden roof and two floors being rebuilt. Audio and visual displays now help to reconstruct a view of life in a medieval castle, while a history of the site is documented in the adjacent visitors' centre. The building is considered one of South Yorkshire's primary tourist attractions, and sees in excess of 30,000 visitors per year. It is managed by English Heritage, as of 1 April 2008. Doncaster Council own the land the monument is standing on, but English Heritage manages the property.
The name Conisbrough is derived from the Old English Cyningesburh – meaning 'the defended burh of the King', suggesting the area once belonged to one of the English kings, prior to the Norman Conquest. The area, strategically placed on one of few historic crossings of the River Don, has been home to a fortification since at least 600 AD.[1]
At the time of the Norman Conquest, the manor of Conisbrough was held by King Harold, who was defeated at the Battle of Hastings.[2]
The current castle was probably on the site of an earlier Norman castle, built by William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey, son-in-law of William the Conqueror.[3] The Warenne family also owned Sandal Castle near Wakefield, Lewes Castle in Sussex, and Reigate Castle in Surrey, as well as a keep on their lands at Mortemer in Normandy.
The third Earl died without male heir in 1147, the castle passing to his daughter, Isabel de Warenne, Countess of Surrey.[3] The current castle was built by Hamelin Plantagenet, Isabel's second husband and the illegitimate half-brother of Henry II.[3] The unique style of keep has been attributed to Hamelin's own design, similar to the keep at Mortemer.[4]
The Yorkshire lands of the Warenne family were seized by Thomas, Earl of Lancaster in 1317. A rebellion by Thomas was put down after the Battle of Boroughbridge in 1322, with the castle first falling to Edward II before eventually being restored to John de Warenne, 7th Earl of Surrey in 1326. When John died without legitimate issue in 1347, the castle again came under the possession of the Crown.[4]
After Conisbrough reverted to the Crown, Edward III gave it to his youngest son Edmund Langley, and it was probably during his tenure that the work to improve the accommodation in the inner ward was carried out. Langley died in 1402 and the castle was inherited by his eldest son Edward, 2nd Duke of Albemarle. Albemarle (by then Duke of York) was slain at the Battle of Agincourt in 1415. Edmund's youngest son Richard (executed 1415) inherited the castle & after his death his second wife Maud lived at the castle until her death at Roche Abbey.
Upon Maud's death, the castle passed to Richard, 3rd Duke of York, who was killed during the Wars of the Roses at the Battle of Wakefield in 1460. His son Edward, Earl of March continued the war, emerging victorious and being crowned King Edward IV. The castle became Crown property upon his ascension to the throne.[4]
By the reign of Henry VIII the castle was in a dilapidated state. In the 1537–38 a survey by Royal Commissioners found that the castle was already a ruin; from the description in the survey, it seems that most of the damage seen today had already occurred.[4] The castle was passed by Elizabeth I to Henry Carey, 1st Baron Hunsdon, then inherited by the Coke family before being sold to the Dukes of Leeds in 1737.[1]
Still a ruin by the 17th century (the collapsed gatehouse and fallen parts of the curtain wall making the castle indefensible), no further damage was done to the fabric of the castle during the English Civil War, which caused so much damage to many old fortifications either through bombardment or slighting. Because of this, along with sympathetic ownership, the keep survived as a ruin, but largely intact.[4]
In 1859, it was sold to Sackville Lane-Fox, 12th Baron Conyers, remaining in his family until it was sold to Conisbrough Urban District Council in 1920 and has been owned by English Heritage since 1949.[1]
Conisbrough Castle in fiction[edit]
In Sir Walter Scott's novel, Ivanhoe, 'Coningsburgh Castle' is based on Conisbrough. Scott's Coningsburgh is a Saxon fortress, based on the mistaken conclusion by him that its unique style marked its keep as a non-Norman. In the notes that accompany the novel, Scott acknowledges that the outer works were Norman but speculates that the keep—which he describes in some detail in the novel (but which in the notes he says he only viewed hastily)—was similar to Scottish mainland and island Brochs, in particular Broch of Mousa in the Shetlands, and hence in Scott's mind, if the castles of the Scottish islands were Scandinavian in origin, then so too could Conisbrough have been a pre-Norman castle built by Scandinavians or Saxons with knowledge of similar Scottish structures.[5]

Lockheed Martin chief operating officer Christopher Kubasik was forced to resign on Friday, according to a statement released by the company. The announcement comes just months before he was slated to assume the role of CEO.
The board of directors "asked for and received" Mr. Kubasik's resignation effective immediately, according to the company's spokesman.
Mr. Kubasik, 51, will be replaced immediately by Marillyn Hewson, the executive vice president of Lockheed's electronic systems business area. The board announced she would also assume the post of CEO on January 1.
"While I am deeply disappointed and saddened by Chris' actions, which have been inconsistent with our values and standards, our swift response to his improper conduct demonstrates our unyielding commitment to holding every employee accountable for their actions," said chairman and outgoing chief executive Robert Stevens.
The announcement blindsided company insiders. Mr. Kubasik, who was the defense contractor's chief operating officer, had been slated to become CEO in January, replacing Bob Stevens. In a statement, Chairman Robert Stevens said he is "deeply disappointed and saddened" by Mr. Kubasik's actions.
According to reports, Mr. Kubasik was forced to resign after his romantic relationship with a subordinate came to light. The company explained that an ethics investigation was performed in order to establish whether Mr. Kubasik was involved in a relationship with a subordinate or not. The results disappointed the company's board who perceived the man's behavior as a violation of their code of ethics and business conduct.
As for the future of Lockheed Martin, Mr. Stevens said he remains confident in the company's leadership.
"Marillyn is an exceptional leader with impeccable credentials and deep knowledge of our business, customers, shareholders and employees", said Mr. Stevens.Have something to say?

After another week of full-time bike commuting I think that I will take this off my goal list. I will have done it. I'm doing it now. It has become very easy for me and very natural. I don't think "oh I could use the car" anymore, I simply just hop on my bike and go. It's just as fast, practically. Especially if I'm downtown. I need to figure out how much gas $ I'm saving so I can feel good about my commuter bike purchase. I think that it will take several months of bike commuting before I will have paid for the bicycle itself, but here's to progress and here's to saving the earth, one bike ride at a time!
Mercedes has written 5 entries about this goal
Now that I've been riding my bike consistently to work for just over 10 days or so, it seems that my perspective on travel has shifted. I now do not see my car as an option and I plan accordingly. It helps that my commute is pretty much the same in length whether I drive or bike. It is also good that when I ride my bike, I have a happier, more positive outlook than if I drove. Even though it is hot in the mornings already, it is worth it for the positive benefits. Not to mention the zero impact on the environment. I love it!!!!
I biked to work today, and I will tomorrow, too!
Tomorrow for Bike to Work day I'm going to ride to: One Texas Center, 505 Barton Springs Road for FREE breakfast and then to work! :)
I got a new bike. It is heavy and pretty. It's nick-name is Brownie right now but I think that is a little too girlie and cutesy for how awesome and retro this bike is. Anyway, I rode it to work today. I only had to walk up 1 super steep hill. It was fun. I loved the feeling of the wind on my face.
This is my new baby: http://www.rei.com/product/774423

US audit inspectors going to China as observers
Amid charges of accounting irregularities against Chinese companies that trade in the U.S., an official says Chinese regulators will allow U.S. accounting inspectors to go to China as observers under a tentative agreement.
The U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, a watchdog for the accounting industry, wants its inspectors to examine Chinese accounting firms that audit Chinese companies whose shares trade in the U.S. The Securities and Exchange Commission has filed civil charges against about a dozen of such companies and is investigating others.
Lewis Ferguson, a member of the accounting board, said in a speech in Irvine, Calif., Friday that the U.S. and China have agreed to let inspectors observe each other's examinations of accounting firms. That could eventually lead to joint U.S.-Chinese inspections of Chinese auditors, he said.

Ice jams prompting flooding fears
Updated On: Dec 22 2013 07:29:18 PM EST
Ice jams on area rivers have prompted the National Weather Service to issue a Flash Flood Warning for parts of Caledonia County. A similar issue was reported in Ausable Forks as well.
An ice jam in Lyndonville, Vt., on the east branch of the Passumpsic River is causing a rapid rise in water levels.
The Lyndonville Fire Station is serving as a temporary shelter for residents who have been evacuated from a mobile home park on Route 114.
Flooding has been reported near the intersection of routes 5, 112 and 114. Officals are concerned about the Sanbourne Bridge, fearing it could collapse. A pedestrian bridge upstream in Lyndonville has closed.
An ice jam on the Saranac River had prompted fears in Ausable Forks, N.Y., but the ice pushed through and the water is now flowing freely.
Other ice jams were reported in Richmond and Jericho, but the Winooski River has not overflowed.

My opinions so far...
And it amazes me to see how impressed others from Europe are when they find that North America is so huge and vast.
I am a Canadian who lives in Vancouver, and although I have been to Europe many times and seen how easy it is to visit the various countries there, it is very familiar to me that my own country is so much larger and spread out than any European country. This is so easily seen in a map that will quickly make it clear to travellers that North America is indeed vast and covers much more territories than any European country.
The delight of visiting Europe for me is the fact that I can easily travel from one country, each with its' own culture and language, to another one quite different and unique in its' own culture and language in a matter of a few hours.
This isn't possible in North America, which comprises only three huge countries, each one with its' own history and culture: Canada, the United States and Mexico.
I am quite accustomed to this vast expanse I was born into and love, but to read about the surprise and amazement of European visitors' realization of the huge territories and how much our various cultures enjoy in freedom, is a wakeup call to me to realize and appreciate and enjoy how fortunate North Americans are to live in a huge, widespread, and very different but exciting part of our world.
I am enjoying your blog about your impressions as you travel and explore the world, and wish you both the best of luck and happiness in your journey.
USA - Bound for Seattle
Loading Map
We stayed in Vancouver for one more night. Then we were US bound again the next day. Our destination was Seattle (in Washington State). Dan booked our tickets through Amtrak (the train company). Dan was excited about the prospect of a journey on one of the huge trains. He found some real cheap tickets. After booking, Dan for some reason, had a bad feeling about the tickets and was sure something wasn't right. So he went back on the net and checked again. Low & behold, a mistake had been made! It appears there are two Vancouver's! There is One in Canada (which we needed to depart from) and one in the USA. Our journey had been booked from Vancouver in 'Washington State' (USA) to Seattle (Washington state), but we wanted the Canadian Vancouver
On arrival into Seattle (via a border crossing), we took a 1.5 mile walk, WITH the packs on back to our (uphill) hostel. On first impressions, the city was nothing much to look at. However, on second impression...... We can safely say that Seattle is a breeding ground for total and utter loop fruits!! Of all the places we have been to, we have never encountered such a large amount of loonies. There was a lot of random shouting going on, hoards of trolley pushers, pigeon chasers, tramps, beggar's and junkies, oh and one fat dog...
So not being totally comfortable sharing a small city with these indigenous reprobates, we limited our time to the 'few' tourist attractions on offer. We saw the Space needle tower and the world famous Pike street fish market. Hoards of onlookers seem to get a thrill (almost slow in the head) out of watching a load of fish mongers, throw their produce back and fourth, whilst all shouting strange noises. So Dan thought it best to take a picture, as everyone else was. Wonder what would happen to someone in the UK that walked up to a fish stall and took photos of a dead trout??!!
