Oak Creek — The Community Development Authority on July 10 recommended spending $23,000 on radio ads on Packers game days for next season as a means of promoting development in the city.
The money will come from CDA funds gained from hotel, motel and room taxes. The commercials will be aired in four slots before and after 20 Packers games on WTMJ-AM (620). The proposal came from Journal Broadcast Group, which approached the city.
While the city has purchased money for print ads, this is their first foray into radio advertising and something CDA Director Doug Seymour said was an "outside the box" way of marketing the city.
The Oak Creek Common Council will examine and vote on the proposal in the next few weeks.

Maiyet Spring 2014 Runway | Paris Fashion Week
Maiyet Spring 2014: Put a Bird On It
For Spring 2014, Maiyet founders Paul van Zyl and Kristy Caylor designed a collection inspired by the spirit of a Hemingway novel: a woman who is whimsical yet willful, sensitive yet adventurous. And the pieces — all ethically produced, as part of the luxury brand's mission, by artisans from the emerging world — fit that heroine beautifully. Collaborating with craftspeople in Indonesia, Varanasi, and Bolivia, they re-created a playful bird print on sun-faded silk dresses, incorporated basket-weaving techniques into knitwear, and used handmade metallic embroideries on ultrasheer fabric. With this offering, it's official: Maiyet no longer needs to shout its good deeds from the rooftops. The clothes — like the women who'll wear them — sell themselves.

Police face cuts as economy falters
Tax collections that pay for police services falling in troubled economy

Sacramento PD makes drastic budget cuts
By Kevin Bohn
WASHINGTON (CNN) — U.S. police departments are streamlining patrols, reducing training and cutting back on some preventative programs as their budgets fall victim to the struggling economy.
Many police chiefs are warning deeper cuts may be coming.
Naperville, Illinois, a middle-class city of about 145,000 people, has a force of 189 officers and 114 civilians. Because of a reduction in real-estate and property tax collections that pay for public safety services, Chief David Dial is cutting nine vacant positions, including three officers, and $60,000 out of his training budget.
"We've gone through the non-personnel related expenses in our budget, and we've cut everything that we possibly can in there," Dial said. "Some of our training monies have been drastically reduced, and there is virtually nowhere else to cut ... except in the personnel area."

Background: our company has several Play! apps, which have their tests run in our internal CI. Each Play application retrieves dependencies from various public repositories over http. This has not been ideal (it bypasses our internal Nexus repository) but bearable. Now we are adding extra CI capacity, and do not want to allow the new machines to be able to access outside the firewall.
In an example Play app, the following configuration in project/Build.scala
is not enough to prevent the build going to repo.typesafe.com
and repo1.maven.org
sbtResolver := "Typesafe (proxy)" at "http://repo-1/nexus/content/repositories/typesafe-releases/"
resolvers := Seq(
"Maven Central (proxy)" at "http://repo-1/nexus/content/repositories/central/",
"Typesafe (proxy)" at "http://repo-1/nexus/content/repositories/typesafe-releases/",
// some more internal Nexus repositories
externalResolvers := Seq.empty
is our internal Nexus host, which proxies Maven Central, Typesafe, and others repositories)
When I remove some dependencies, either from Maven Central (e.g. Guava) or from Typesafe's repository (e.g. the Play mailer plugin), and run play compile
, I see from the output that the dependencies are still being retrieved from repo.typesafe.com
and repo1.maven.org
[info] downloading http://repo.typesafe.com/typesafe/releases/com/typesafe/play-plugins-mailer_2.9.1/2.0.2/play-plugins-mailer_2.9.1-2.0.2.jar ...
[info] [SUCCESSFUL ] com.typesafe#play-plugins-mailer_2.9.1;2.0.2!play-plugins-mailer_2.9.1.jar (981ms)
[info] downloading http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/google/guava/guava/12.0/guava-12.0.jar ...
[info] [SUCCESSFUL ] com.google.guava#guava;12.0!guava.jar (1422ms)
To compound the problem, we're also on slightly older versions of everything: Scala 2.9.1, Play 2.0.1, sbt 0.11.3.
How do I force a Play app to retrieve dependencies from an internal repository, exclusively?

The Encyclopedia of Louisville (Google eBook)With more than 1,800 entries, The Encyclopedia of Louisville is the ultimate reference for Kentucky's largest city. For more than 125 years, the world's attention has turned to Louisville for the annual running of the Kentucky Derby on the first Saturday in May. Louisville Slugger bats still reign supreme in major league baseball. The city was also the birthplace of the famed Hot Brown and Benedictine spread, and the cheeseburger made its debut at Kaelin's Restaurant on Newburg Road in 1934. The "Happy Birthday" had its origins in the Louisville kindergarten class of sisters Mildred Jane Hill and Patty Smith Hill. Named for King Louis XVI of France in appreciation for his assistance during the Revolutionary War, Louisville was founded by George Rogers Clark in 1778. The city has been home to a number of men and women who changed the face of American history. President Zachary Taylor was reared in surrounding Jefferson County, and two U.S. Supreme Court Justices were from the city proper. Second Lt. F. Scott Fitzgerald, stationed at Camp Zachary Taylor during World War I, frequented the bar in the famous Seelbach Hotel, immortalized in The Great Gatsby. Muhammad Ali was born in Louisville and won six Golden Gloves tournaments in Kentucky. |
What people are saying - Write a review
I have not read this book, but wonder why there is no apparent mention of Harvey Sloane's SummerScene program. There was just an article about pop-up playgrounds in the NYTimes on Sunday, August 14, and it reminded me that Louisville had done this many years before. How could your history have overlooked this?

Mario Balotelli to Arsenal? Striker's fiancée drops Gunners hint by posing in front of badge
The pair are currently in New York
James Orr
James Orr is a Digital Sports Reporter for The Independent.
Thursday 17 July 2014
Is Mario Balotelli's fiancée Fanny Neguesha's hinting that the striker wants to move to Arsenal?
Here are the pair in New York, posing in front of Arsenal badges at the Puma shop, who manufacture Arsenal's kit.
The former Manchester City forward Balotelli, who currently plays for AC Milan in Serie A, has been linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium all summer.
Balotelli will soon join up with his Milan team-mates in America for their pre-season tour, and the Gunners will also be over in the States next Saturday when they take on the New York Red Bulls.

With the 23-year-old Italy international sponsored by Puma, a move would certainly suit both parties, but has that ship sailed now that Arsenal have been bolstered by the addition of Alexis Sanchez?

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Pet owners who bristle at doggy breath could be a toothbrush away from a whiff of fresher air
LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Dogs and cats can't brush, spit, gargle or floss on their own. So owners who want to avoid bad pet breath will need to lend a hand.
"Brushing is the gold standard for good oral hygiene at home. It is very effective, but some dogs and more cats don't appreciate having something in their mouth," said Dr. Colin Harvey, a professor of surgery and dentistry in the Department of Clinical Studies for the University of Pennsylvania's School of Veterinary Medicine.
The bulk of bad breath odour — the trademark rotten egg smell — comes from hydrogen sulfide, which is waste from anaerobic bacteria that thrive without oxygen in places like gaps between teeth and gums. Plaque buildup also invites the bacteria and as the accumulation grows, so does the smell.
Animal shelters and rescues know bad breath and filthy teeth can be a deal breaker. Some shelters, such as the Humane Society of Vero Beach & Indian River County in Florida, shuffle their charges through a dental health program before the animals are adopted out.
"We usually do dental cleanings and extractions when animals are spayed or neutered so the animal doesn't have to be put under anesthesia again after adoption and the adopter has one less thing to worry about," said Janet Winikoff, the shelter's director of education.
If a pet is already spayed or neutered, it will still get dental care before adoption, she said. Harvey added that bad breath could also be a symptom of an underlying medical problem.
Stacy Silva, Santa Barbara County Animal Services' community outreach co-ordinator, noted that wear on teeth could give the wrong impression of an animal's age. "(The animals) may look a lot older than their teeth, and it may just be a matter of cleaning the tartar off that gets them back looking their age and that helps them to be adopted," said Silva.
The animals that need a cleaning get chew toys or ropes, hard treats or cookies and a prescription diet if the vet orders it, she said.
Harvey, who has been director of the Veterinary Oral Health Council since it was founded in 1970, said such products are good substitutes for a teeth-brushing. Pet owners can try a combination or use other products such as water additives, chew toys, plaque and tartar cleaners, and dental diets, Harvey said.
Puppies and kittens are born toothless. They get their baby teeth before they're a month old, lose them three to five months later and get their permanent teeth by age 1. Dogs have 42 teeth and cats have 30.
Toy dogs tend to have more dental problems because breeding for their smaller size hasn't caught up with evolution, Harvey said. "Primitive dogs had a standard size and shape because they were evolved from wolves" but for toy breeds, their jaw size was reduced and tooth size was not, "so their teeth are too large for their mouths," he added.
Christie Keith, a communications consultant to animal welfare and veterinarian groups, said she spends about two minutes each night brushing the teeth of her three dogs after dinner. The Davisburg, Mich., resident believes most dog owners needlessly fear brushing their dogs' teeth.
"But cats are another story," she added.
Harvey said that's because cats' mouths are smaller, their teeth sharper and they could care less about bonding with a human during designated tooth time.
Keith said she took it slow when she began brushing the teeth of her 8-year-old greyhound Val. She started with one tooth at a time and used a foamless flavoured gel that dogs can swallow.
"She started to nibble (on the toothbrush) and I rubbed it on her front teeth. I didn't make a big deal out of it. I didn't worry about brushing the first half dozen times. It was just a little bonding thing. Eventually, I brushed one tooth. Now she stands there and lets me brush all her teeth," she said.
The gel doesn't require water to rinse, lessening the likelihood of a mess. A year later, "(Val's) gums look healthy to me, and it doesn't seem she has any more tartar," Keith said.
Oral care products for animals are generally not regulated by any federal agency, although the Food and Drug Administration monitors all products that claim to prevent or slow disease. The agency does not test products that claim cleaner teeth, fresher breath or the reduction of plaque and tartar, Harvey said.
The VOHC is not a regulatory agency but it uses American Dental Association guidelines to test pet plaque and tartar products. Test requests are voluntary but companies pay nonrefundable submission and annual maintenance fees. Products are given a VOHC seal if they pass.
The council has approved a human, ADA-compliant, flathead toothbrush with soft bristles and rounded tips for pet use. A child's brush can be used for small pets and an adult size for big dogs, but don't use human toothpaste on pets, Harvey warned.
Such toothpastes contain detergents that foam and pets will swallow it instead of spitting it out, he said.
Harvey said he can't comment on any product VOHC hasn't tested, but as a rule, any wipe, tongue cleaner or additive should be beneficial — although nothing beats brushing.

Five Best: Hotels for picnics
Bring on the bubbly, says Keely Tharp, as she dines alfresco
Saturday 30 July 2005
Le Mas Candille, France
To celebrate a new Michelin star, this hotel is planning to "Pamper With A Hamper". Picnic beneath olive and cypress trees in the hotel grounds, or venture to Cannes and Nice. Foie gras, salmon, lobster, raspberry tart, macaroons, chocolate, cheese and wine are some of the treats. The hotel, once an old farmhouse, now has a Shiseido spa and, of course, the restaurant Candille.
Le Mas Candille, Rebuffel, Mougins, France (00 33 492 28 43 43; www.lemascandille.com). Doubles start at €304 (£206), room only. Picnics cost €150 (£210) for two.
Bushmans Kloof, South Africa
Picnickers at Bushmans Kloof can opt for views of 10,000-year-old rock art or wild game. When staying at the retreat, on a private wilderness reserve, guests choose from activities ranging from bird-watching and game drives at dusk to fly-fishing and mountain biking. Sandwiched between the mountains and plains, the reserve is home to an immense variety of plant and animal life. Picnic delicacies include smoked meats, freshly baked bread, spinach and feta filo parcels, fresh fruit, roasted nuts, dessert, champagne and wine. And to revitalise after a long day's exploring, guests can relax in the hotel's new spa.
Bushmans Kloof, Clanwilliam, South Africa (00 27 21 685 2598; www.bushmanskloof.co.za). Doubles start at 3,800 Rands (£310) full-board, including activities and picnic hampers.
Baglioni Hotel, England
With its sumptuous Italian interiors, guests may not want to venture further than the front door of the Baglioni Hotel in Kensington. The hotel is the latest addition to the Baglioni group and opened just over a year ago. However, it's making use of its enviable location this summer - just over the road from Kensington Gardens - by offering picnic hampers to its guests. Featuring an array of delicacies such as Italian salamis and cheeses, the only thing that can't be guaranteed is the Italian weather to accompany it.
Baglioni Hotel (020-7368 5700; www.baglionihotellondon.com), 60 Hyde Park Gate, London. Doubles start at £247, room only. Picnics start at £90 for two.
Park Hyatt, Japan
For a cosmopolitan take on the concept, the Park Hyatt Tokyo is offering a "Picnic at the Park" this summer. It includes a bus tour of Mount Fuji and Hakone, where guests can stop and enjoy the contents of their hampers, or the picnics can be eaten in the Yoyogi, Shinjuku Gyoen and Central parks, just minutes from the hotel. Included are hors d'oeuvres, a choice of main, salad, dessert and wine; picnics can also be tailor-made. And if street-level views fail to impress, the hotel provides a spectacular aerial panorama of the city from the top 14 floors of the 52-storey Shinjuku Park tower.
Park Hyatt Tokyo (00 81 3 5322 1234; www.tokyo.park.hyatt.com), 3-7-1-2 Nishi-Shinjuku, Shinjuku-Ku, Tokyo, Japan. Doubles start at JPY55,000 (£276) including breakfast and picnic.
Lilianfels Blue Mountains, Australia
Overlooking the Blue Mountains, at this newly refurbished Victorian hotel guests can picnic in the hotel gardens or explore the rainforest, canyons, waterfalls and caves of the mountains, hamper in hand. The Gourmet Picnic includes pies, salad, smoked salmon, local cheese, fresh fruit and cake. The Bushwalking Picnic provides a selection of sandwiches, salad, fruit and dessert.
Lilianfels Blue Mountains, Echo Point, Katoomba, Australia (00 61 02 4780 1200; www.lilianfels.com.au). Doubles from AUS$430 (£190), room only. Picnics from AUS$30 (£13).

Report: 'Dancing with the Stars 2' Lisa Rinna to return as new co-host
By Reality TV World staff, 03/02/2006
Dancing with the Stars
semi-finalist Lisa Rinna may have failed to win the ABC reality ballroom competition's disco ball trophy, but according to reports, she's going to be walking away with a nice consolation prize: a new job as the third season's co-host.
According to the
New York Post
Dancing with the Stars
sources are telling the newspaper that 42-year-old Rinna, eliminated in the results show that aired the week before the show's two-part finale, will replace
Dancing with the Stars
co-host Samantha Harris when the show returns for its third season.
Should the report prove accurate, Rinna will become
Dancing with the Stars
third female co-host in as many editions. Former
Entertainment Tonight
correspondent Lisa Canning co-hosted the show's first season, after which ABC
dumped her and replaced her with Harris
, previously best known for her work on
E! News
. "A decision was made to go in a different direction," an ABC spokesperson told
Daily Variety
when the change was announced in December.

Rear Window Shock Help Please!!!
Okay, I am new to jeeps and new to this forum. I have a 95 Wrangler that I purchased not long ago with a decent list of needed odds and ends. Believe it or not, the thing that I can not seem to get for the life of me is rear window shocks. The ones that were on the jeep are 18" long. I have ordered 4 sets from a company, that assure me each time that now they know exactly the ones that I need, only to get them in and be way too long. Anyone know a place that I can get these shocks with less hassle or have a part number? Thanks in advance!
I think that I found mine thru NAPA.
Yep. X2 on the NAPA. Just put mine on last week. 1 word of advice, after having ones that were worn out for a while now, installed the new ones and got hit in the chin by the rear hatch due to the force that it opened...lol. Advice: step back when releasing the hatch!
Thanks for the help!
If it's not too late, I went thru
Liftsupportsdepot.com They were cheap and shipping was fast! The lifts were easy to install in about 5 minutes and they seem super strong.....been on about 6 mos so far. If I remember correctly, they were StrongArm shocks. Edited to add....I've got 2006 TJ but my experience with the StrongArm brand has been very good...I'd assume the same for your YJ....good luck! |

The Pickleback
By Ed Sikov
Originally printed 1/31/2013 (Issue 2105 - Between The Lines News)
Cocktail Chatter
"Are you pregnant?" Dan asked me the other day.
"I'm not sure," I said through the chomp of a pickle - my third in so many minutes - "but I rather doubt it." It's true that Dan and I have been experimenting sexually lately, but I am confident that nothing we've tried would result in either one of us having been impregnated.
"So what's with the pickle obsession?"
"I question the word 'obsession,'" I said after another satisfying crunch. "It's not as though I'm serving you pickle souffles or pickle-tofu casseroles."
"You have successfully turned my stomach," Dan noted with a sour expression on his face. I curtsied and headed back to the refrigerator for another pickle. "It's wintertime," I yelled from the kitchen. "Time to eat preserves and pickles! I think they're supposed to have a lot of Vitamin C." I pulled this theory out of my, um, head. Hey, it sounded plausible.
"You pulled that out of your ass," Dan countered. "It's more likely that you're pregnant."
I shrugged. What difference did it make if I was hauling Claussen's pickles home by the case? There are worse vices, I thought to myself.
That's when inspiration struck: a pickle juice cocktail! I was elated. I'd just invented a hip new drink! It would be an instant sensation - I'd be famous, albeit briefly and only in limited circles. So I hurried to the computer, went online to check whether indeed I'd come up with something new, and was immediately crushed to discover that I'd been beaten to the punch. Apparently "The Pickleback" is already a hipster hit.
The recipe is quite simple, but it's also needlessly exacting in its ingredients: A Pickleback is a shot of Jameson Irish Whiskey followed by a shot of pickle juice. Although it was only 4 o'clock on Sunday afternoon, I had to have one immediately. Fortunately, we had most of a fifth of Jameson, and of course I had more than enough pickle juice.
Usually I drink Jameson - and all whiskeys, Scotches, and bourbons - on the rocks, but the Pickleback demanded that the shot be served neat. I eagerly poured a shot glass full of Jameson and a twin glass full of pickle juice. (I strained out the bits of garlic and spices with a tea strainer.) I didn't bring them into the living room, knowing I'd just end up being the brunt of Dan's mockery, but instead downed both shots while standing at the kitchen counter. The Pickleback was delicious! The smooth, sweet whiskey found its soul mate in, of all things, salty-sour pickle brine! Who knew?
I've subsequently experimented with other whiskeys and even bourbon; they all work. Why the recipe specifies Jameson is unclear. It's a great combination, but so is Jack Daniels and pickle juice, Knob Creek and pickle juice, and so on.
My stealthily created Pickleback, safe from Dan's critical eye, enabled me to make another one of them without his knowing, so I was a bit looped when I emerged from the kitchen smacking my lips. Dan noticed my heavy-lidded eyes immediately. "Better watch the hooch, honey," he advised. "It's not good for the baby."
The Pickleback
1 shot of Jameson Irish Whiskey (or any sweet bourbon or sour mash)
1 shot of chilled, strained pickle juice (I recommend Claussen's)
Down them in order. Then make another set. Serve, of course, with pickles.

Next time, I'll use lighter weights and pay attention to form. Any tips or pointers? Meg 07-29-2005, 02:10 PM Susan - great exercise! You're absolutely right to drop your weight and be sure you've got the form right. As with any triceps exercise, good form is the KEY to getting results.:) Hmmm, these are the things I concentrate on when doing lying extensions (I'm guessing you're using DBs?): the starting position is both arms straight up in the air (if using a BB, hands are about 4 - 6 inches apart) your elbow is a hinge - the only part of your arm that moves is from the elbow to your hand - the upper part of your arm always remains stationary keep elbows IN by your head and pointed at the ceiling at all times you only need to bend your arms to a 90 degree angle with DBs - parallel to the bench at the top of the movement, straighten your arms (it's OK to lock out your elbows) and SQUEEZE your triceps Here's (http://www.fitsite.com/index.cfm?ContentID=10868&do=detail) a little video of DB extensions that may help. If you're doing BB extensions (a/k/a skullcrushers), here's (http://www.fitsite.com/index.cfm?ContentID=10867&do=detail) another video. ;) I'm sure you'll get some more tips from the others. :strong: srmb60 07-29-2005, 02:15 PM OH thank you soo much, Meg.

- Management (1)
- Assistant Manager (1)
- Store Manager (1)
- Manager (1)
- Application Details
I applied in-person – interviewed at Variety Wholesalers.
Interview DetailsThe first step is to fill out an application that must be picked up from store. Then an interview is scheduled by Store Manager. If they liek you, they will ask you to take a few assessments, which is not difficult, a math test, opinion test.Then after the interviw with store manager there will be an interview with the District Manager.
Interview Questions- Questions were basic, they will ask you about experience, what is custiomer service to you, ar you willing to do something that may not be specifically listed in your job description (example, clean the bathroom). Team and work ethic will be questioned. You may be asked if you have shopped there before and what kind of experience you had when visiting the store. Also how do you plan on getting tasks done. Also what would you do if a task that you assigned one of your employees was not complete? Basically they want to ensure that you get the idea that you should do whatever it takes to get the job done. Answer Question
Negotiation DetailsI took the job but was the promises that was made to me was never fulfilled. Salary means that you are expected to work over 12 hours a day all the time.Accepted OfferAverage Interview -

Application DetailsThe process took 1+ week – interviewed at Variety Wholesalers in January 2012.
Interview DetailsApplied with Rose's at least 3 times on-line over the course of 6 - 8 months. Finally, the third time got phone screen with a District Secretary. Invited to open house for new store, but I would have a scheduled appointment with DM. Had all my paperwork completed in advance to the open house. While waiting (and waiting) for the DM, had preliminary interview with company HR manager. Actually, he did all the talking and didn't want to let me say a peep. He's about 107 . He was person you had to apply to Rose's on-line, since he is the 'first stop' apparently, so to speak.
DM comes in, interview with him and another DM from another district all with the HR Corp Manager.
Again, they do all the talking, not interested in what I had to say, other than "yes" to various duties if I were assigned to do them, etc. Should have seen the red flags there.
DM stated he would see me ideally as a 'floater' between locations, would I mind that. No, I'm cool with that. I learned later he pretty much pegs everyone for that, but don't hold your breath on it happening.
Would contact me within 3 days if a "go".
Corp 107 year old sent me a benefit package to preview, I sent the usual thank you's etc.
Hadn't heard, so I moved on. About 9 days later, get an offer from DM. He asked which applicant I was.
He was calling me! I told him which one I was and he said he remembered. (But I don't think he could place me, only that I was female and had extensive softlines exp.) He made an offer to begin in one store, the one farthest from my home, of course. To be a floater later, yada yada.
Against my better judgement, I accepted and began. Turned out to be a trainwreck, as you can see my review here about the company. Next time: I'll go with my gut.Interview Questions- They really don't ask any questions. They do all the talking about the company and the position. View Answer
