Crossroads Chiropractic & Massage Associates provides therapeutic massage treatments tailored to each client's specific needs to gently coax tenseness from bodies. Registered massage therapist and local lumbar hero Reiss Rankin escorts clients into clean, comfortable treatment rooms for 30- or 60-minute therapeutic muscle-kneading sessions. The Crossroads approach to massage aims to relieve musculoskeletal pain and promote soothing circulation by tailoring each session to address the client's unique sources of tension, be they chronic pain, injury, or stress. Each session can incorporate an array of common therapeutic massage techniques and styles, including deep-tissue massage, sports massage, and the sweet relief of funnel-cake massage.
Each treatment at Missouri Acupuncture reduces fine lines and wrinkles. Treatments last an hour: 10 minutes to insert the diminutive needles and 40–50 minutes spent relaxing on a massage table with a feet-warming lamp and background music mostly devoid of righteous cymbal solos. Ten treatments—typically two a week for five weeks—constitute a complete course, which Missouri Acupuncture Services recommends for full results. However, complexion brightening and skin tightening can be seen as soon as the first or second treatment. Additionally, unlike invasive surgery, there is no downtime for recovery, allowing a speedy return to a competitive race around the sun. Each treatment is conducted by Travis Spire-Sweet, L. Ac., a board-certified acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist who received his BS in Biology and a Master's of Science in Oriental Medicine.

Two-fifths of Oklahoma City's starting lineup — two guys important to their defensive identity — will now be sidelined basically until the playoffs start.
Starting two guard Thabo Sefolosha will be out four to six weeks with a calf strain, reports the Oklahoman. The injury occurred Saturday night when the Thunder were beating the Cavs.
"He may come back a little sooner than this, he may come back a little later," Thunder general Sam Presti said. "But we're gonna (say) 4-6 weeks."
"It's unfortunate for us to have Thabo out," Kevin Durant said. "He was playing so well, defending at a high level … It's a blow to us that he's gone, but we're going to hold it down."
This comes just days after the Thunder learned Kendrick Perkins also will be out the same amount of time with a strained groin. Both Perkins and Sefolosha are expected back by the start of the playoffs.
In the short term, Perry Jones will move into the Thunder's starting rotation.
Announcement: Pro Basketball Talk's partner FanDuel is hosting a one-day $80,000 Fantasy Basketball league for Monday's games. It's $25 to join and first prize is $9,000. Starts at 7pm ET on Monday. Here's the FanDuel link.
When Perkins and Sefolosha are on the court together the Thunder defense is basically flat with the team's season average (0.3 points per 100 possessions better, the opposing team's shooting percentage is 0.3 percent higher). As you would expect (especially with Perkins) the Thunder offense is better when those two sit (OKC's scores 5 points less per 100 possessions when they are paired). However, with Jones and Steven Adams starting the Thunder likely suffers. Their offense is going to have to carry them.
Which is a concern with the Spurs 1.5 games back of the Thunder for the best record in the West and home court throughout the playoffs. And the Spurs just got their core back healthy. The Thunder are also 1.5 games back of the Pacers for the best record overall in the NBA (meaning home court in a potential NBA Finals meeting).

Past the sloughs, we turned left on the boardwalk and followed it to the end at the ...

The year 2012 was defined by the calculated re-emergence of Obama worship, no matter how obvious his failures in office. After his re-election, the actor Jamie Foxx let it all hang out in a tribute at the BET Awards on November 25: "First of all, give an honor to God and our lord and savior, Barack Obama!"
Despite all the media hullabaloo about the fiscal cliff and a potential recession if none of the Bush tax cuts are extended, stock markets have behaved calmly throughout this whole period.
In the wake of the Newtown, Conn., tragedy, every politician who has me on their email list - and there are many, on both sides of the aisle - has been filling my inbox. All of the messages begin with the requisite expression of shock and horror, the business of sending out our hearts and prayers to those who mourn. Then the gun control advocates insist that now is the time for congressional action, and the opponents caution that no legislation is going to stop people (not guns) from killing.
While some prominent Republicans appear to be more open to raising taxes on the wealthiest Americans as part of a budget deal that would keep us from tumbling off the so-called "fiscal cliff," others are digging their heels in deeper.
On Friday, a heavily armed young man walked into a Connecticut elementary school and murdered 20 first-graders and six adults before he killed himself. Even in a country inured to gun violence, this crime is too heinous to contemplate.
Michigan is no longer a state. It is now "Michiganistan," an autocratic czardom in the hands of Emperor Rick Snyder.
"No set of laws can eliminate evil from the world, or prevent every senseless act of violence in our society."
President Barack Obama in 2008, and again during the 2012 election, promised absolutely, positively no tax hikes on the middle class. The rich, however, must pay more: "It's not me being stubborn, it's not me being partisan - it's just a matter of math."
"Mandatory sentences breed injustice," Judge Roger Vinson told the New York Times. A Ronald Reagan appointee to the federal bench in Florida, Vinson was railing against a federal system that forced him to sentence a 27-year-old single mother to prison life without parole because her dealer ex-boyfriend had stored cocaine in her house.
Those who say we should run government like a business must not be frequent flyers.
When you think about it, it's amazing that the high-minded swells at the University of California didn't unveil a new logo sooner. The old logo, which will continue to appear on diplomas and official letters, features the school motto, "Let there be light." Ancient. An English translation of a Latin phrase. And a book. Dead-tree lit. 1868? Dead white guys. Under a star. Too militaristic.
Here we are on brink of a major historical moment. We're beginning to wind down the longest period of war in our history. And we're about to turn around a 13-year-long surge in Pentagon spending.
Christmas in my home city of Santa Monica is different this year. It used to be that there were elaborate displays depicting the birth of Jesus in the big public park by the ocean. I've always believed that Christmas is a major religious holiday, and the display reflected that. According to people who know more about such things than I do, the large dioramas told the story of Jesus' birth according to the Gospels of Luke and Matthew.
As the white flag rises above Republican redoubts, offering a surrender on taxes, the mind goes back to what seemed a worse time for conservatives: December 1964.
Bill O'Reilly asked this question on his Fox News program last week: "Why do I have to be the leader defending Christmas against its attackers?" O'Reilly was criticizing Rhode Island Governor Lincoln Chafee's renaming his state's Christmas tree a "holiday tree."
Ask anyone under 40 to identify Paul McCartney or "I Want to Hold Your Hand," and the odds are you'll get a blank look in return. Ask someone under 30 to describe the Soviet menace and you may well get the same response. The first one is harmless ignorance, and some might argue the second one is as well. After all, it's over and we won, right?
When America was hit on 9/11, the world united around us. France just had its 9/11, and again the civilized world has come together, all except the United States. Where were America's leaders as the rest of the world united?
Minutes to midnight on New Year's Eve, I sat around a fire with friends, discussing plans for 2015. I told them mine: to hike over 200 miles on the John Muir Trail through the High Sierras, by myself.
Here's what I love about the French: They've long understood the dangers presented by radical Islam. French President Francois Hollande swiftly called the deadly Wednesday shooting at Paris' Charlie Hebdo magazine "an act of exceptional barbarity," without doubt a terrorist attack. There was no hedging. The Socialist leader didn't engage in the sort of blather White House spokesman Josh Earnest offered on MSNBC shortly after the shootings. Earnest called the attack a "terrible act of violence," but not necessarily terrorism.
Congress, which had been so tied up in a partisan knot by right-wing extremists that it became unable to move, suddenly sprang loose at the end of the year. Before heading home for the holidays, it put on a phenomenal show of acrobatic lawmaking.
For the third time, the cops of the NYPD have turned their backs on the mayor of New York.
While last year's voters put a pack of reactionaries in charge of the new Congress, let's not forget that bigger majorities of the same electorate leapt at the chance to say "yes" to an array of unabashedly progressive ballot initiatives.
"The Interview" is a funny movie that does a stand-up job showcasing how a not particularly serious or informed person would deal with Kim Jong Un - and evil itself, with all its blandishments. James Franco plays talk show host Dave Skylark, who discovers that the North Korean dictator loves his show. Skylark's susceptibility to flattery renders him willfully blind. Because Kim plays up to him, Skylark wants to believe that the phony grocery his chauffeured car happens to drive by is real, that reports that Kim starves his people are the result of media bias and that Kim, like ...
The past month of Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and the Winter Solstice, our hearts grew warmer and our thoughts turned to kindness and goodwill toward all.
In July of 1870, King Wilhelm sent Foreign Minister Bismarck an account of his meeting with a French envoy who had demanded that the king renounce any Hohenzollern claim to the Spanish throne.
It has become a never-ending quest to define millennials. Those between the age of 18 and 34 are often portrayed as a self-absorbed, narcissistic generation obsessed with technology. They are a group more likely to check their Twitter or Instagram apps than keep up with world events. In fact, voters age 18-29 made up a mere 13 percent of the vote in this month's mid-term elections.
Peace on Earth, good will toward men. We honor these noble values every holiday season - and some people actually work to advance them all year long.
"NYPD, KKK, How many kids did you kill today?"
An old bumper sticker offered a stinging response to the Bush-Cheney regime's enthusiasm for waterboarding: "Impeach Bush," it urged. "Torture Cheney."

The prince joked, the duchess charmed and some of the guests took selfies.
When the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge entered the ballroom of Government House, it was to much fanfare, with the air force brass band trumpeting them to last night's state reception and then playing God Save The Queen.
Catherine drew gasps with her stunning black Jenny Packham dress, with silver ferns embroidered over it in intricate beading.
Prince William's speech began with a Maori greeting, and got a loud "kia ora" in response.
"No insults yet," he joked.
Prince George may have been sleeping, but William got a few laughs by apologising to host Governor-General Sir Jerry Mateparae, saying he hoped his young son had not kept him up at night.
"He has been known to be particularly vocal at 3am and I swear I heard him doing the haka this morning."
His "bonnie wee lad" needed all the strength training he could get, "preparing himself for life as a prop forward".
The couple unveiled an official portrait of William's gran, painted by Wellington artist Nick Cuthell.
The Queen had allowed him an hour's sitting.
The 87-year-old monarch was in a simple blue day dress that Cuthell revealed he asked her to wear. It was adorned with the New Zealand silver fern brooch Kate has been wearing on her lapel during this tour.
The painting is to hang as part of the permanent collection of the National Portrait Gallery at Shed 11 on the aptly named Queens Wharf. It is available for public viewing from tomorrow.
As the duke and duchess moved through the crowd, some guests took the opportunity to document the occasion.
National MP Tau Henare was one to snap a selfie with Catherine in the background.
The official guest count was 198, which meant a very quick "how do you do", before the duke and duchess were whisked off to the next group of outstretched hands.
Earlier the couple had brief meetings with Labour leader David Cunliffe and Prime Minister John Key. The prince told Key he expected his race-off against Catherine on the America's Cup boats today in Auckland to be "a bit of healthy competition".

On visiting the family of Harker's fiancee, he is even more alarmed to find that she is suffering from an unidentified malady. The local doctor suggests it is anaemia, but Van Helsing knows the terrifying truth, that she has become the count's latest victim.

The role of vascular phenomena taking place during an attack of migraine are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to measure systemic levels of nitric oxide and endothelin-1, two of the most potent vasoactive mediators known, and to assess vasomotor responses through transcranial Doppler ultrasound monitoring in patients suffering from migraine without aura, both during the headache event and in headache-free periods as well as after pharmacologically induced pain relief. Seven patients (mean age 31.3 years, range 24 to 49 years), five women and two men, were enrolled in the pilot study. Transcranial Doppler recordings were performed according to conventional procedure. Endothelin-1 concentrations were measured by means of radioimmunoassay, whereas nitric oxide levels were estimated using electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Ultrasound evaluation did not show significant changes during migraine attacks compared to the interictal condition. Nitric oxide levels showed only slight differences between basal and attack conditions (0.85 ± 0.46 versus 1.56 ± 0.88, expressed as arbitrary units), and were raised after pharmacological intervention (2.91 ± 1.93, P<0.05). Plasma endothelin-1 concentrations decreased during migraine attacks with respect to interictal conditions (3.99 ± 1.21 pg/mL versus 4.23 ± 1.19), and returned to basal values (4.44 ± 1.08 pg/mL) after relief of pain. Coupling the measurements of systemic levels of nitric oxide and endothelin-1 with transcranial Doppler velocity results will provide useful information on the hemodynamic changes of cerebral blood flow regulation in migraineurs, thereby adding new insights into the mechanisms of the migraine attack.

ABSTRACT: Is common sense always best? A DFT investigation of two S(N) 2' substitution reactions with different central metals (zirconium and titanium) and types of allylic sources revealed that in both cases, a [2+2]/retro-[2+2] pathway is energetically favorable.

[Column] Star Wars: The Old Republic: But Everyone Else Was Doing It Too!
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion 1/17/15 11:58:19 PM
I participated in the thread in the SWTOR forums over this issue. I lobbied for strict enforcement and tough repercussions for the exploiters, and was personally attacked for my stance. After getting extemely upset over the personal attacks, I suffered a minor heart attack a couple of days ago, spending two days in the hospital recovering. My best friend (real life) with whom I live posted about my situation, only to be mocked for her post. Hours later, after being mocked and called a liar, a moderator removed her post and issed us both infractions, me for my inflammatory comments ("white knighting" their defense) and her for posting false information. As a long term player I'm absolutely pissed that Bioware would allow people to cheat like this, then slap down and sanction those that showed actual moral fortitude through willful non-participation. Further, I'm furious that Bioware would infract someone for posting TRUE information, without even trying to verify the statements made. My friend has approached Eric Musco and "community support" demanding they recant their assertion of wrong doing and apologiize for their false accusations, but I have little faith that anyone at Bioware cares about the players who actually follow the rules. It's all about pandering to the rule breakers. A player since beta and an avid SWTOR fan, this whole exploit issue has simply proven that Bioware customer "support" is a disgusting, expoliter ass kissing failure. I'm done with this sorry game. |

Freeport school costs might rise to meet township, PennDOT standards
The cost of Freeport Area School District's new middle school could increase by as much as $1.5 million and the building's completion could be delayed a year because the district needs to meet Buffalo Township's stormwater runoff and parking requirements.
The district also must upgrade two intersections on South Pike Road/Route 356 in front of the school campus to PennDOT specifications.
District architect HHSDR Architects Engineers is submitting revised plans to the township that they believe will meet the spirit of their requirements without pushing the district further into debt on the $30 million project.
"We want to work with the township, and we want to get this on schedule," said school board President Dan Lucovich. "The delays will only cost the taxpayers more money."
Architect Greer Hayden outlined several options for parking and stormwater runoff control to school board members on Tuesday during a project progress update.
The worst-case scenario would mean delaying opening the school until fall 2016, if the district is required to replace a storm sewer culvert under Monroe Road. The culvert doesn't meet township requirements, based on the site's projected runoff amounts.
Hayden said HHSDR believes it came up with solutions that would keep the project on track and the opening of the school in September 2015.
However, progress hinges on whether Buffalo Township approves a revised parking plan and the firm can develop a stormwater management plan that meets its requirements.
Buffalo Township feels there is inadequate parking at the school campus, which will include the new middle school, high school, administration building and athletic fields.
The district's original design called for 350 spaces around the new school with no modification to about 200 spaces around the high school and administration building.
There are two ways the district can calculate parking usage based on the township's zoning requirements: maximum occupancy, which includes all students and staff; or peak usage, such as during arrival and dismissal and evening school events, Hayden said.
The first scenario would require 1,365 spaces, which is well beyond what school officials believe is needed even if there were simultaneous sporting events and a performance in the auditorium.
The new design, based on peak usage, would add an about 150 spaces through parking areas at the administration and maintenance buildings and around the high school.
The township supervisors may consider the parking plan Feb. 26.
"It seemed like it would be acceptable to the township engineer," Hayden said.
If it's not approved, it could push the project construction past September 2015, meaning a mid-year opening for the middle school.
Stormwater plan
The capacity of the stormwater culvert under Monroe Road to which the school campus' runoff drains doesn't meet the township's requirement for a "25-year storm," a very rare, severe storm.
The middle school design, which includes two stormwater retention ponds, reduces the flow of runoff, but not enough to meet the township code.
The township is requiring the district to replace the culvert so that it can handle more runoff, Hayden said. That could cost about $150,000 and put the district a year behind in opening the school.
Replacing the pipe would also mean releasing more water. That would require a joint agreement between PennDOT and the state Department of Environmental Protection and releases from the property owners to accept more runoff.
HHSDR's solution is to build a third stormwater retention pond to control the flow of runoff from an approximately 20-acre parcel of vacant land next to the middle school site.
"If we can control this water so we can reduce the flow to the existing pipe, we can avoid all that, because I'm not sure we can get the releases from the property owners," Hayden said. "That might be a way to avoid replacing the pipe and satisfying the township ordinance."
Road improvements
About $700,000 of improvements are needed to the Silverview Drive and Cole Road entrances to the campus off Route 356.
District officials expected to be required to make improvements there, but until meetings with PennDOT and the township, the extent of the improvements wasn't known.
Alterations include a right-turning lane from Route 356 onto Cole Road and a left-turning lane from Route 356 to Silverview.
"Every one of these intersections require some type of improvement now," Hayden said. "The fact that PennDOT (said) that we're making a bad situation worse, that's why we're required to do these improvements."
Additionally, the district revised its plans for a new road between the campus and Monroe Road near Sheetz.
They'd hope to make it two-way, but faced with having to create right-turn lanes into and out of Monroe Road at Route 356, they opted to restrict the district driveway at Monroe to an exit only.

If I remember right, the way I got vlc2 to install was by following this:
The steps about the universe repo in sources.list, find universe in that file and uncomment the line.
But I'm on 11.10, not 10.04.
I could be wrong though, I tried a lot of things before finally getting it to install.

Apple continues iPod factory investigation
Despite word from Foxconn that Apple has completed its audit of the Chinese iPod factory, Apple says it continues to investigate the working conditions. "We are still investigating the working conditions at Foxconn's manufacturing plant in Longhua," said Apple spokesman Steve Dowling. "This is a thorough audit, which includes employee working and living conditions, interviews of employees and managers, compliance with overtime and wage regulations, and other areas as necessary to insure adherence to Apple's supplier code of conduct. Apple's supplier code of conduct sets the bar higher than accepted industry standards and we take allegations of noncompliance very seriously."

>Apple is just like every other evil company.
Well, they aren't quite Union Carbide in Bhopal, they haven't made Thalidomide and the haven't crashed the Exxon Valdez (see "Corporate Crime And Violence" by Russell Mokhiber for more examples of vile behavior). They haven't even lied to bilk millions out of investors like Enron. If you were going to do a scale of evil companies, I'm sure they would rank among the better ones.
Posted by morebinky on July 3, 2006 at 2:12 PM (CDT)
moreblinky: well, at least you refrained from adding Enron to your list. Apple's apparent behavior (or lack thereof) in the Foxconn case isn't surprising, but it does indicate a lack of organizational oversight jboth before AND after contracts were signed with their subcontractor. Their failure to acknowledge any abuses within Foxconn and giving them a clean bill of health only to have Foxconn themselves subsequently contradict Apple's 'official' declaration only puts more scrutiny on Apple and their own policies. All this current damage control is oh so pathetic in that it should've never happened to begin with.
You rank 'evilness' by the amount of mayhem and destruction a company creates…well, how about the amount of human abuse and person oppression? Does that make a company better than one who was saturating an eco-system with crude oil because the ship's captain was TOO DRUNK to bother with being on the bridge? This quandry of Apple's may be primarily Foxconn's doing, but their apparent lack of oversight and due diligence in their initial investigations earns all the negativity that's due. When a company seems more eager to suck up to Wall St….let the volleys commence.
I always thought that it was funny when Apple did their deal with Nike (just love THEIR past worker abuse controversies, don't you?)...given what's transpired since, it's almost like a match made in Heav…well, perhaps Hell is the more appropriate locale.

Corporations are not evil. They are designed to conduct business in a manner that brings reward to their investors and customers alike. Like any other human enterprise, some people who run corporations (Or do anything else for that matter) can be less than saints.
Apple, for whatever reason, has chosen to set a standard of conduct for its suppliers and appears to be serious about enforcing these rules. Using labor in a foreign land, with different standards than US labor laws, makes enforcement somewhat problematic. Who ultimately is responsible for how workers are treated - the outsourcing corporation or, the country where they are employed? If condemnation is demanded, I would suggest the current communist Chinese government would be a good place to start.

Shame Apple don't insist on their product being assembled by Foxconn in it's US production facilities in Los Angeles(Cypress), Houston or Kansas City…..
Posted by Bob Levens in UK on July 4, 2006 at 4:46 AM (CDT)
Apple certainly aren't alone in having their products assembled overseas, and I'm sure that there are many other products assembled in the exact same conditions, or worse. I'm sure someone thought they were being very clever to concentrate on Apple's supplier to sell papers, but don't you think that only Apple would have the PR and financial clout to really do something about it? An increase of $5 in the price of every iPod with that money going to improve the conditions of the workers in the factories (or less preferably, going to move production somewhere with better conditions)? You're right that companies act in their own best interests above all, but you can see that for Apple, that would be a double whammy - they're cleaning up the misdeeds of others where no other corporation would.

Back on the Veg Train
Posted by Brittcracker on Aug 16, 2012 · Member since Aug 2012 · 2 posts
I have been veg off and on for the past 8 yrs but I have found that my downfall isn't my desire to eat non veg foods (I actually dislike them) it is cooking for my meat eater husband! I just had a baby girl two and a half months ago so now I am determined to go all the way and stay there! My husband has high cholesterol and is only 26 years old, so I am hoping my lie choices will positively impact him as well!
I'm hoping to find a veg mommy group in Houston so I can have some support!

Sale Alert: 50 % Off at Pier 1 Online
Wow, Pier 1 is having a crazy "moving sale" on its web site, offering up to 50 percent off on almost everything online. From now until Aug. 31 — or while supplies last — you can get some serious bargains on kitchenware, candles, rugs, and bedding.
Until today, I actually hadn't perused the Pier 1 site for a while, and I'm pleasantly surprised by some of the chic offerings. Here are a few of my picks from the sale; just click on each photo to view.

If anyone lives near a Big Lots, they have a TON of Pier 1 inventory right now. At like 70% off!
7 years
Pier 1 is so overpriced, I used to be fan but I feel like I'm kind of of over them at this point. Until they step up their game, I think I'll pass.
7 years
I went into my local Pier 1 last weekend to see about buying some pillows that are in the most recent catalog. They had the match curtains but said they won't have the pillows for 2 months! You can't even order them online. Why put them in a catalog if you can't buy them yet? Makes no sense to me.
7 years
Oh I wish I'd known sooner! Everything I had on my Pier1 mental shopping list acquired from the catalog mailings I regularly get is ~gone~ There's hardly anything left at all! What a great deal for tonnes of peeps~!
7 years
i can enter their site, but when i click on the sale tab it gives me an error message.
7 years
Blech. I worked at Pier 1 for over 3 years and am still haunted by all the wicker and wax.

Top 10 online hit parade packs plenty of interest
Top 10 online news stories for 2013
Relevant offers
Weather, earthquakes and transport woes were among the most read items on dompost.co.nz in 2013, but the big events like the Sevens, local body elections and Toast Martinborough also got plenty of attention.
1. WELLINGTON SHINES FOR THE SEVENS The huge weekend of fun, partying and sport is a big part of Wellington's culture, so it's no surprise that our coverage of the Wellington Sevens comes out as the most-viewed item online. Galleries and videos of the Westpac Stadium party were hugely popular as people wanted to check out some of the more out-there costumes. For the record England won the tournament, but we don't really need to go on about that one.
2. STORM HITS WELLINGTON LIKE A FREIGHT TRAIN We were warned it would come, and boy did it deliver. The massive storm that smashed into Wellington on the afternoon of Thursday, June 20 brought Wellington and surrounding areas to a standstill. A wind gust at Mt Kaukau was recorded at about 200kmh, while trees tumbled, rail tracks fell into the harbour, and roads were closed. At one stage 30,000 homes were without electricity. Schools were closed the next day and people were told to stay out of the CBD until the city got back on its feet. It was widely regarded as the worst storm to hit the area since the day of the Wahine disaster in April 1968.
3. MAJOR QUAKES RATTLE THE CAPITAL The two major earthquakes this year were centred off the South Island, but felt strongly in Wellington. The first large quake, a 6.5 magnitude, hit on a Sunday afternoon on July 21. Many buildings were damaged and it was fortunate a lot of CBD buildings were empty at the time. On Friday, August 16, about 2.30pm a 6.6 magnitude quake was felt strongly, again causing damage. Because of the time of day, and the large number of aftershocks from the July event, buildings in the capital emptied and thousands of people jammed roads out of the city, causing transport problems.
4. THREE MORE YEARS FOR CELIA WADE-BROWN Voter turnout may be low in local body elections, but interest online was high on the big night in the capital. Could long-standing councillor John Morrison take out the Wellington mayoralty from one-term incumbent Celia Wade-Brown? The answer was a reasonably emphatic "no", with Ms Wade-Brown clinching her second term. Readers flocked to the site for our coverage of that race and all the others around the region.
5. HUTT FIRE 'DELIBERATELY LIT' Early this month firefighters tackled a massive fire on the eastern side of Hutt Valley, which police believed was deliberately lit. The blaze was so big it was seen clearly in the evening across the harbour in suburbs as far away as Miramar. Again, readers were quick to let us know what was happening, both by sending in dramatic photos and updates via social media.
6. ROUND THE BAYS About 13,000 people took part in February's Round The Bays run/walk from Wellington Railway Station to Kilbirnie. Wellington runners Martin van Barneveld and Tina Harris were first to cross the line in the main events. But it wasn't just about the top athletes, it was also about a big sense of occasion. Readers flocked to the website for updates, picture galleries and results.
7. SNOW FORECAST FOR WELLINGTON HILLS There are few things that get people excited in the capital more than snow, or even the prospect of snow. While we didn't experience a "winter wonderland" like we did in August 2011, in May this year there was plenty of the white stuff to keep people happy. It wasn't all pleasant, though, as the rare snowfall did cause all kinds of problems on the roads and with transport in general.
8. LIVE COVERAGE OF TOAST MARTINBOROUGH It seemed that if you couldn't be there, you were reading about it online. The annual wine, food and music festival, Toast Martinborough, again drew big crowds in November. Our Wairarapa reporter Caleb Harris got in the thick of it all and live blogged from all over town. An online gallery of revellers also proved popular.
9. COMMUTER TRAIN DERAILS Of all the stories about capital commuter woes, the train derailment in May topped them all. The 7.43am train from Porirua to Wellington was carrying 315 people when a carriage came off the tracks near the ferry terminal. It caused massive headaches for KiwiRail and the commuters - not just the ones onboard, but the entire train network. An inquiry criticised KiwiRail's safety practices and found that two split pins in the brakes had been left off, causing the derailment. All 26 units were removed from service for inspection.
10. LIGHTNING STORMS HIT WELLINGTON There were some spectacular lightning storms over Wellington this year, but in May and August there were a couple of real crackers. Dompost.co.nz was swamped with spectacular reader pics as forked lightning rippled across the winter night sky.

"To Rome with Love" is a movie about Rome, love and youth from a Woody Allen perspective. I really liked Jesse Eisenberg, Alec Baldwin and Ellen Page, Roberto Benigni. Great acting, fun story. Diane, the Librarian that sets these up usually provides popcorn and water. The film starts at 6:30pm in the library.
After we will walk across the street to the Wintonaire for drink, food and conversation.
It should be a fun movie. After we can cross the street and have a drink/food at the Wintonaire.

I rented this movie not too long ago. The scenery of Rome was beautiful-I am moving that week-hope to join the group at a future outing-Thanks, Brian-Happy Memorial Day to everyone!

I like all the actors in this movie and wish I could join you. Alas, I have a volunteer commitment through the whole week.
Perhaps, another time.
