The majority of cases heard in Municipal Court are traffic infractions. These citations can be handled in one of three ways: 1. By mail, following the instructions on the citation; 2. At the Municipal Court office in City Hall, where fines are assessed (possibly reduced) by the Court Clerk according to a schedule based on the type of offense and your driving record; or 3. By appearing in court at the time set for arraignment listed on your citation.
Court Arraignments - Violations
The purpose of arraignment is to tell the judge how you wish to proceed with your case. Traffic and other Violation arraignments are on Thursdays at 10:00 a.m. On the first and third Thursdays of the month we hold Criminal arraignments at 3:00 p.m. You should arrive before the scheduled time (which appears on your ticket) and check in at the court desk before entering the courtroom.
There are two options at arraignment:
You can plead NOT GUILTY if you wish to contest the charge against you and go to trial. The trial ordinarily is scheduled within a two-month time period.
You can plead NO CONTEST. If you choose this option, you can offer an explanation of the circumstances. Your fine or other penalty, assessed by the Judge, would depend on your explanation, your driving record, and the seriousness of the offense.
A plea of NO CONTEST under Oregon Law results in a guilty finding by the court. The benefit to a no contest plea is that you do not have to admit guilt in open court.
If you do not follow any order of the court, including an order to pay a fine, your driver's license will be suspended and you may be subject to further legal action and costs. A plea of NO CONTEST will result in a conviction being entered on your driving record.
At trial, you and the police officer will appear in court to present evidence about your citation. Evidence can include the testimony of you and the officer, the testimony of any witnesses, and photographs or diagrams.
Non-attorney trials are informal and take 30 minutes or less. The judge will hear the evidence and normally make a decision at the end of the trial.
If you choose to hire an attorney, make sure that he or she notifies the court as soon as possible, no later than 5 days prior to the trial. A new trial date will be set.
If you fail to appear for trial, the court will enter a judgment against you which can include an increased fine, up to the maximum allowed by law. The conviction may also be entered on your driving record.
Criminal Case Arraignments, Pretrial Conferences & Jury Trials
A defendant will be arraigned as part of the initial court hearing on the charge. The arraignment is normally a defendant's first court appearance.
At the arraignment, the judge informs the defendant of the charge and makes sure the defendant understands his/her Constitutional rights as explained at the beginning of the court session. The defendant is then asked to enter a plea of guilty, no contest or not guilty to the offense, or if they wish to speak with an attorney before entering a plea.
If you plead guilty or no contest, you are admitting that you committed the offense as charged. If you plead not guilty, you are denying that you committed the violation or may have a defense to the charge. No Constitutional rights are waived unless expressly waived by the defendant.
The case will then be set for a pretrial conference. At this conference, all parties must be present. Plea agreements concerning the case may be made at these hearings. If the case goes forward, the next hearing will be either a bench or jury trial.
If the defendant waives his/her right to a jury trial, the next hearing will be a bench trial where the judge will hear testimony and decide the case. If the defendant requests a jury trial, the case is determined by a jury of six citizens from the community. Defendants are presumed innocent, and the plaintiff, the City of West Linn, must prove the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
Failure to appear for any of these hearings may result in a warrant for your arrest.

My tri is next weekend. Yesterday I managed to get out the entire swim/bike/run (or *wog* in my case). I feel pretty good about it now. The swimming, as suspected was a challenge, but I'll just float to recover if needed.
Today I did a swim and bike brick. I will be laying of the weight training this week, with the exception of Tuesday and all my cardio will be in the pool or on the bike. That's all from me!
I stressed yesterday about finding the right gear to wear for the tri. I Don't really know why I put it off for so long. I raced around yesterday and found a ZootSuit top -- in an XXL which fit perfect on the upperbody, but around the hips, the lycra-on-lycra, slips up and bunches at my waist. Not. Attractive.
Why is it I can't find a sport with more flattering clothing? like tennis... with those cute skorts? LOL Just when I start feeling good about my progress, I have to slap my fat into lycra from head-to-toe and bare all the rolls in the bakery! :)
So, today I'm returning the ZootSuit top. I ordered, what I know will be a comfy and quality product from Junonia, is another tri top. Had to pay extra to get it shipped here faster, but I'll feel much better about it in the end.
Well, I'm off to do Mommy things... laundry, food shopping, etc.
Note for Courtney: How about the mileage count starts after each of our tris and we have time to recruit some others for the *virtual* team. Just a thought. September in SA could be entertained for sure. :)

On the utility of doorstops
Written by: Michelle Francl-Donnay
"Why do you have a stage light?" I queried, as we opened the back of the station wagon in Georgetown's parking garage last fall and a heavy matte black cylinder toppled out. "It's a doorstop," declared my eldest, something his tone of voice intimated should have been obvious. Which it should have been. Years have dwelling with technical theater geeks have given me an appreciation for a hitherto unseen ranges of possibilities in everyday objects. Admitedly the transfer usually goes the other way, leaving me peering at some prop mid-production and realizing that my missing side table had not been appropriated for grading midterms but had snuck off to star in the high school production of Noises Off.
The light was plopped into position at Mike's door, holding open this new space as we moved his boxes in. It was still there when we returned to see him on our spring break, casually rolled into place as we stopped in his room while he checked his laundry.
Mike took his last exam on Friday, but has yet to come home. Instead he is taking a bit of a break between the furious pace of his first academic year and the undoubtedly furious pace of the intensive Greek course that starts in a few days, and musing on his blog about what he's learned this year (besides a lot of Greek). Earlier this week he wrote about some of the more idiosyncratic items on his college packing list — the inflatable moose head and his doorstop.
"I can't tell you how many conversations I had about the huge stage light I use as a door stop or the inflatable moose head I kept around for bit," he writes in "Find a Doorstop." Not surprisingly, his open door literally led to an openness to new relationships, but he points out that this theatrically sized doorstop worked on other levels. His eccentric doorstop reminded him to be open to new experiences, to things that might not have seemed engaging in the past. To make room in his heart for new people, and new passions.
As I read his reflection, I wondered if Mike remembers the homily at the First Vows mass we were at not quite three years ago. Eight of the Jesuit novices that I had made the Spiritual Exercises with professed their vows in the Society of Jesus that day, and the homilist was Joe Lingan, SJ, who had been their novice master (and who is now at Georgetown, too). In his homily, framed around Gregory the Great's description of Ignatius of Loyola's heart as being big enough to encompass the universe, Joe invited us all to consider our own openness of heart: "A vow ceremony is a good occasion to assess the size of one's heart — it's openness, flexibility, passion and desire — and to see how and in what way I allow God and God's grace to assist in the maintenance of my heart."
I've periodically returned to those questions (usually when I run into the prayer card from that occasion that is tucked into my breviary). How flexible is my heart, can it expand? What am I passionate about? Where do I desire to be able to love, and to love, not in the abstract, but in my practical day to day existence?
Mike's doorstop, drawn straight from one of the passions of his life, makes me think about the doorstops of my heart. What do I use to keep my heart open so that I can love — God and neighbor — passionately, abundantly, joyfully?
The ephemera in my breviary; notes and prayer cards and fragments of palms from Holy Week's past that I literally use to hold the book open when I pray, but that also serve as reminders to pray for the living and the dead, and to recall the Pascal Mystery that orients my life; the woolen prayer rope bound to my wrist, a bridge to the desert fathers and mothers, who sat on the edge of vastness, open to God; the Examen, returning me to the doorway of each day to contemplate what doors I choose to hold open, which to shut.
These doorstops are tangible graces, God at work in me doing what I cannot do for myself: hold my heart so open that, like Ignatius, it might one day encompass the universe.

This coming November 14-17, the HERO Racing team (HELPING EVERYONE REACH OUT) is entered into the most grueling off-road race in the world, The SCORE International Baja 1000.
What makes the HERO Racing team different than any other is that one of our 3 race bikes is the first all-amputee team in the race's history. We we are racing as a 100% non-profit fundraiser to bring a fortunate recipient a prosthetic leg with the Challenged Athletes Foundation. They helped us find this amazing individual who is a very athletic 10 year old boy from Michigan. Our little friend, Nicholas Knotts, is in need of a prosthetic leg to participate in a full and active lifestyle. Like the rest of us, he's 100% human. Just missing a part. Read More→

Barre teen pleads guilty to Aldrich Block arson
BARRE — A teen who helped set fire to the Aldrich Block in 2010 is admitting the crime as well as a role in another arson in Williamstown last year.
Jessica Delary, 19, of Barre, pleaded guilty to second-degree arson, burglary and violating conditions of release in Washington County criminal court in Barre on Wednesday. She has agreed to a sentence of six months to five years in jail as well as probation for one to five years.
In pleading guilty, Delary said the information in the police affidavit about the Aldrich Block fire was accurate. According to the affidavit, Delary and Nicholas Witham, 19, of Roxbury, spread a substance they believed to be paint, but which was roofing tar, on the floor of an office in the century-old building. The two had entered the vacant building several times by climbing a fire escape to the third floor and forcing open a window.
Delary and Witham started the fire by using checks from the Key Bank that had previously been located in the building. The two tried to extinguish the fire with a piece of Plexiglas that melted and a wall painting that instead fanned the flames.
Delary and Witham then fled the building without calling emergency services.
Delary's formal sentencing was pending until the building owners, Mayor Thomas Lauzon and his wife, Karen, could give a statement about the crime's impact on them and the sentencing deal. Mayor Lauzon, however, said Wednesday afternoon that he declined the opportunity to do so.
"I don't think it's appropriate, because I can't separate myself from the fact that I'm the mayor," he said. "In that respect, I don't know if my testimony would carry more or less weight to the judge. In either case, it wouldn't be fair."
Lauzon said the fire caused around $3 million in damage to the building, which has been repaired. He said his insurance policy covered only $1 million.
The case had been held up as Delary sought — unsuccessfully — youthful offender status since she was 16 at the time of the fire. As part of the plea agreement, State's Attorney Thomas Kelly said Wednesday that Delary, who was facing a separate arson charge in Orange County, is being allowed to plead guilty to a lesser charge of felony unlawful trespass and will have another year added to her maximum sentence in Washington County, resulting in a sentence of six months to six years altogether.
In the Orange County case, Delary is accused of participating in several fires set in and around the former Rosewood Inn in Williamstown in July. The flames were put out before they could do any serious damage. The charge of violating conditions of release that Delary admitted to stemmed from her being out past her court-ordered curfew at the time the Williamstown fires were set.
Witham pleaded guilty to being involved in the Aldrich Block fire in 2011 and was given a seven-year deferred sentence. He picked up more charges since then, however, and was sentenced in November for two violations of probation, possession of alcohol by a minor, and supplying alcohol to minors, all misdemeanors. He was sentenced to six years in jail.

New Revised Standard (NRS) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 No sooner had Boaz gone up to the gate and sat down there than the next-of-kin, of whom Boaz had spoken, came passing by. So Boaz said, "Come over, friend; sit down here." And he went over and sat down. | 1 Meanwhile Boaz went up to the town gate and sat there. When the kinsman-redeemer he had mentioned came along, Boaz said, "Come over here, my friend, and sit down." So he went over and sat down. |
2 Then Boaz took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, "Sit down here"; so they sat down. | 2 Boaz took ten of the elders of the town and said, "Sit here," and they did so. |
3 He then said to the next-of-kin, "Naomi, who has come back from the country of Moab, is selling the parcel of land that belonged to our kinsman Elimelech. | 3 Then he said to the kinsman-redeemer, "Naomi, who has come back from Moab, is selling the piece of land that belonged to our brother Elimelech. |
4 So I thought I would tell you of it, and say: Buy it in the presence of those sitting here, and in the presence of the elders of my people. If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not, tell me, so that I may know; for there is no one prior to you to redeem it, and I come after you." So he said, "I will redeem it." | 4 I thought I should bring the matter to your attention and suggest that you buy it in the presence of these seated here and in the presence of the elders of my people. If you will redeem it, do so. But if you will not, tell me, so I will know. For no one has the right to do it except you, and I am next in line." "I will redeem it," he said. |
5 Then Boaz said, "The day you acquire the field from the hand of Naomi, you are also acquiring Ruth the Moabite, the widow of the dead man, to maintain the dead man's name on his inheritance." | 5 Then Boaz said, "On the day you buy the land from Naomi and from Ruth the Moabitess, you acquire the dead man's widow, in order to maintain the name of the dead with his property." |
6 At this, the next-of-kin said, "I cannot redeem it for myself without damaging my own inheritance. Take my right of redemption yourself, for I cannot redeem it." | 6 At this, the kinsman-redeemer said, "Then I cannot redeem it because I might endanger my own estate. You redeem it yourself. I cannot do it." |
7 Now this was the custom in former times in Israel concerning redeeming and exchanging: to confirm a transaction, the one took off a sandal and gave it to the other; this was the manner of attesting in Israel. | 7 (Now in earlier times in Israel, for the redemption and transfer of property to become final, one party took off his sandal and gave it to the other. This was the method of legalizing transactions in Israel.) |
8 So when the next-of-kin said to Boaz, "Acquire it for yourself," he took off his sandal. | 8 So the kinsman-redeemer said to Boaz, "Buy it yourself." And he removed his sandal. |
9 Then Boaz said to the elders and all the people, "Today you are witnesses that I have acquired from the hand of Naomi all that belonged to Elimelech and all that belonged to Chilion and Mahlon. | 9 Then Boaz announced to the elders and all the people, "Today you are witnesses that I have bought from Naomi all the property of Elimelech, Kilion and Mahlon. |
10 I have also acquired Ruth the Moabite, the wife of Mahlon, to be my wife, to maintain the dead man's name on his inheritance, in order that the name of the dead may not be cut off from his kindred and from the gate of his native place; today you are witnesses." | 10 I have also acquired Ruth the Moabitess, Mahlon's widow, as my wife, in order to maintain the name of the dead with his property, so that his name will not disappear from among his family or from the town records. Today you are witnesses!" |
11 Then all the people who were at the gate, along with the elders, said, "We are witnesses. May the Lord make the woman who is coming into your house like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you produce children in Ephrathah and bestow a name in Bethlehem; | 11 Then the elders and all those at the gate said, "We are witnesses. May the LORD make the woman who is coming into your home like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you have standing in Ephrathah and be famous in Bethlehem. |
12 and, through the children that the Lord will give you by this young woman, may your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah." | 12 Through the offspring the LORD gives you by this young woman, may your family be like that of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah." |
13 So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife. When they came together, the Lord made her conceive, and she bore a son. | 13 So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife. Then he went to her, and the LORD enabled her to conceive, and she gave birth to a son. |
14 Then the women said to Naomi, "Blessed be the Lord, who has not left you this day without next-of-kin; and may his name be renowned in Israel! | 14 The women said to Naomi: "Praise be to the LORD, who this day has not left you without a kinsman-redeemer. May he become famous throughout Israel! |
15 He shall be to you a restorer of life and a nourisher of your old age; for your daughter-in-law who loves you, who is more to you than seven sons, has borne him." | 15 He will renew your life and sustain you in your old age. For your daughter-in-law, who loves you and who is better to you than seven sons, has given him birth." |
16 Then Naomi took the child and laid him in her bosom, and became his nurse. | 16 Then Naomi took the child, laid him in her lap and cared for him. |
17 The women of the neighborhood gave him a name, saying, "A son has been born to Naomi." They named him Obed; he became the father of Jesse, the father of David. | 17 The women living there said, "Naomi has a son." And they named him Obed. He was the father of Jesse, the father of David. |
18 Now these are the descendants of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron, | 18 This, then, is the family line of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron, |
19 Hezron of Ram, Ram of Amminadab, | 19 Hezron the father of Ram, Ram the father of Amminadab, |
20 Amminadab of Nahshon, Nahshon of Salmon, | 20 Amminadab the father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon, |
21 Salmon of Boaz, Boaz of Obed, | 21 Salmon the father of Boaz, Boaz the father of Obed, |
22 Obed of Jesse, and Jesse of David. | 22 Obed the father of Jesse, and Jesse the father of David. |

Some people are taking advantage of the fair for more than fun, food and games.
The Louisiana State Police Department is spreading awareness about their message to keep people safe.
Guests to their booth are leaving with their hands and minds full, picking up goodies and all sorts of treats with their newfound safety knowledge.
And while this might sound like an easy day for police, it's actually a great way for them to reach the public.
According to Matt Harris of the Louisiana State Police, "we can reach thousands of people by way of the state fair of all ages, from 2 or 3 years old all the way through senior citizens and you'd be surprised at the questions that people have and you're able to answer just by simple conversation when they pass by our booth."
Maybe some junior troopers will even grow up to be just like the ones they saw at the fair.

I think I see both sides of the argument here. People get worked up about about nothing; people make baseless accusations and illogical (if even intelligible) arguments; topics get hijacked; players answer other players questions without the need for intervention from reds. A healthy number of questions I see in here are things that should be taken to technical support. What I dont get is that, in the span that I've been using this forum (about 6 months), I've yet to see a single red post in here. Not a "yes", or a "no", or even a "maybe so". Honestly, I could care less about Darius, Teemo, Heimer, etc. It's champs like Ashe that frustrate me. I've started and responded to a dozen posts about her. It appears that WELL over 75% of the community agrees she's outdated and outclassed. And we're not even getting a simple, "We're not focusing on ADCs right now", or "Yes, we noticed you all agree her passive sucks, but it's going to take a while before we can get to her." I'd settle for a "No." just to feel acknowledged.
They already nerf every champion each patch i don't think they need to come here to read all the X champ is OP threads
Ok so it seems that you guys are mostly making the argument that most posts are just meaningless QQ and if you actually did read my post then you would saw that I have definitely addressed that. I'm not expecting red responses on those, just on legitimate questions and proposals which shouldn't be too much to ask. And if the same QQ topic is being brought up over and over again then why shouldn't that deserve a response either?
I wish Riot would post here more as well. I get that they don't want to get into arguments with noobs over whether or not Darius is op, but they could at least post once and just not reply.
Nothing in this forum is worth reviewing

I had my DirecTV service call this morning . . .
First, I wanted to say this was probably the MOST POSITIVE visit that I have ever had by a service tech from any company. He was very knowledgeable and did a complete and thorough check up of my system. Following the conclusion of the visit, he also provided me with his cellphone number (a new policy of the DirecTV service vendor in this area) with the understanding that if I experience any technical problems in the next 3 months, I should contact him directly.
The tech's immediate diagnosis was that my H24 was defective. He provided me with the option of either replacing it with a H24 or H25 (they don't have older, outdated models on the truck). I told him I wanted to to stick with a H24. When he connected the replacement H24, it strangely also would not take a forced download of the software (even with multiple attempts).
The tech then went back to his truck and grabbed a H25. Within seconds, it took the software download. The tech's conclusion is that DirecTV may be having a software download feed issue with the H24.
I am now glad that DirecTV sent a tech instead of just sending me a replacement H24. It looks like the H24s "may" currently be having an issue that would not have been resolved with getting a like model for replacement . . . or I would have gotten an older, outdated receiver.
At least for now, I am very happy with the H25, and in hindsight, it should have been the model I ordered. It is noticeably faster than the H24.
I mentioned to the tech that the reason I went with the H24 was that it had RF remote control capabilities. He went back out to his truck and grabbed me an RF dongle, as well as an RF remote (which I was planning to purchase in the future). Both were given to me free of charge.
So far, this has been a happy ending to my issue ! ! ! !
If there are any daring forum members with an H24, I'd be very interested in the results of what your experience is if you attempt to force a download.
Glad it worked out for you! I know it was beyond frustrating to not have it get the downloads. Anyway, my H24-700 has been successfully getting the CEs each week so I'm not sure about the H24s having d/l issues.

Correction, the feed for the H24 700 and H25 500 are both coming from TP 25, which has a sig of 93 . . . .
Sometimes, bear in mind, they changing tpn for particular model.
I would go further (as to samrs insist on bad LNBF) and select to test the one particular tpn to see if signal level is steady and not fluctuating - will watch it for a few minutes.

The 2014 Special Olympics USA National Games in New Jersey is this month, and there is no better spokesperson than I.K. Kim. She is an athlete who works on improving all aspects of her game. This not only include the mechanics of her grip, her swing, her drive, and her putting game, but it also includes the challenges of leadership and sportsmanship. She sees all these challenges as a platform to reach out to a broader cause as a spokesperson. So nearly 5 years ago she devoted herself to learning English with Language Training Center (LTC), official language service provider for the LPGA. She focused particularly on her English presentation skills, and LTC couldn't be more proud of where those skills have taken her. She has also been learning French, but doesn't plan to stop there. "What I've learned from LTC is to speak as close as possible from my heart. I've learned to welcome the challenging questions and not react but respond."
This year's Games boast the largest exposure yet with the largest media market in the world. Combine the Special Olympics with the talent and heart of I.K. - an athlete who epitomizes LPGA values of Leadership, Passion, Giving, and Approachability- and what you get is a perfect storm of national awareness for the impact these organizations have worldwide in providing opportunities for growth, encouragement, understanding, and respect, where both athletes and fans alike experience transformation though joy and friendship.
I.K. is headed straight from the Games in New Jersey to Pinehurst for the U.S. Women's Open Championship. You would expect some talking points about that time honored tournament, but in a recent phone interview, she described in more detail her excitement for the Congressional Pro-Am the following week where she will get to play with some of the Special Olympic golfers.
I.K. sees her many roles as LPGA athlete, ambassador, and spokesperson as vehicles for building relationships with people and creating greater awareness of what life should be about. "I love people, friends, family, colleagues and fans. It's all different relationships and different energy," she says. Like most athletes in the global arena, I.K. understands that reaching out to her fans is essential. Her name has become known to people of different languages and cultures all over the world. She understands that communication is powerful, and to her, language is how we share our hearts.
When asked for her thoughts on her roles and newfound relationships, she waxes philosophical and quotes Deepak Chopra: "Be happy for no reason like a child. If you are happy for a reason, you are in trouble, because that reason can be taken from you."

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Finchley!
Facts about Finchley
- Breed: Pug/Dachshund Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Finchley's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Finchley and her littermates were surrendered to a high kill shelter in West TN. Sadly she and her littermates came down with parvo and the other 4 died, but strong Miss Finchley survived! She is so cute and very playful and there are no residual effects from having parvo. She is working very hard on housebreaking and making everyone smile in the meantime! She is ready for a family to love! Finchley is in foster care in West TN but we use a great transport company that brings our babies to your area!
Other Pets at Beyond Bars Animal Rescue - Wytheville Chapter
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Finchley, a Wytheville Pug/Dachshund puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Pug/Dachshund for sale in Wytheville, or seeking a Pug/Dachshund puppy from a breeder in Wytheville.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Wytheville already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Wytheville breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Pug/Dachshund breeders who help with Pug/Dachshund rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Wytheville paves the way for another one to be saved.

Fantastic Fest: 'Nightbreed – The Cabal Cut' Suggests That Sometimes, Maybe the Studio Does Know Best
Fantastic Fest By Rob Hunter on September 28, 2013 | Comments (3)I watched Clive Barker's Nightbreed three times in theaters in 1990 and several times more after buying it on VHS. (Shut up.) It was a completely different beast from his film debut, Hellraiser, but its creativity, ambition, and roster of all manner of creatures of the night made it a fun and original horror film in a year dominated by genre sequels. Sure it was cheesy and goofy at times in its attempt to tell a love story against a backdrop of serial killers, monsters, rednecks, and rogue priests, but it was also unlike anything we had seen before. But even then, twenty three years ago, there were rumblings in Fangoria magazine and elsewhere about the troubles Barker had dealing with the studio and the cuts he was forced to make, and Barker repeated the tales again and again in interviews that followed over two decades. He requested access to the original film elements on more than one occasion so he could essentially craft his director's cut, but he was denied time and again. There was finally a change in that narrative in the past couple years though when the discovery of VHS tapes featuring raw, work print versions of the film was announced. A man named Russell Cherrington set out to mesh footage from both sources into a definitive cut based on the author's original script, and with Barker's blessing he's now sharing it with the world. My excitement for the finished product, Nightbreed: The Cabal Cut (named for the source novella, "Cabal"), […]

Hi friends! Cabinets are partially in and I need to start narrowing down my backsplash choices. So here is what I've got so far: Pic #1 is my inspiration picture, mainly in terms of the color scheme. I also love the dark chandy and other iron touches. However, this kitchen does not have a tile bs, where as I will. In fact I will have very little "painted" wall. The majority will be covered with bs tile. Pic #2 in the next post is what I am considering for bs. I love the color and although typically I am not a huge fan of glass, I like it in this photo. So my first question is ... what do you think? Can I achieve a similar "feel" as in pic #1 with the elements I've picked thus far and a tile such as this? My other question is that along with my kitchen remodel, I am updating my fireplace. I had a new mantel built and now I need to tile the face. I will be using a brown limestone called Teakwood, but I can't decide on the size of the tile for the face. My "inspiration" fireplace (post #3) uses a 1x2. The kitchen, dining area, living room and fireplace are in close proximity to one another (I live in a small condo). Will this be too much "mini" tile going on if I were to use a 1x2 for both bs and fp? The other option that I am considering for the fireplace is the same stone but in a 3x6 (see link). Would this better? I am really stuck on this one as I feel one selection will drive the other (i.e. if I use a mini for the bs, then I shouldn't use mini for the fp. If I use a 3x6 for the fp, then I shouldn't use it for the bs ... etc.) Thanks for your guidance!!! |

IMHO, no. In pic one, nothing is shiny, everything is flat. In pic 2, the B/S is shiny iridescent. I love your Pic 1 --- totally my thing. But I think pic2 would seriously alter its mood. |
- Posted by BlackChamois (My Page) on Tue, Dec 4, 12 at 0:16
mtnrdredux - Thanks for that observation! I do need a backsplash. What tipe of tile would you recommend? Porcelain? Matte finish? Is there a marble that is not too expensive in the tan/taupe family? At one time I had wanted a calacutta bs, but it was for a different counter. I don't want carerra mainly because I would like something in the warmer/tan/taupe tones. Thanks! |
I agree that the shiny/iridescent glass backsplash is not really consistent with picture #1. I think that a matte porcelain tile would probably be your best bet, maybe in a light taupe? I'm having trouble envisioning how that would look with the Raven, though, so I imagine you'll want to play around with some samples. I am in the process of redoing my kitchen with white shaker cabinets and raven counters, so I was intrigued by your question. I think we are going for a more modern look with cooler colors. I'm including a link with pictures of the backsplash we are considering; the other leading contender is white glass subway tiles. I like the backsplash in picture #2, just don't think it's really consistent with pics 1 and 3. |

erhm - Thanks for the feedback. I will see what I can find in matte. And a light taupe is the color I am going for. I am not a fan of the shiny black counters in pic #2. One of the reason I wanted to go with the Raven was because I felt it has a "softer" look to it, being dark gray vs. black. Somewhat reminds me of soapstone maybe. I guess I could have it honed, but really not sure about that. I do have a sample of some 1x2 glass tile in light taupe color that I have been holding up against my small raven sample, and I think it looks nice. I will try to get a good photo of it to share here and maybe that would help. I am open to suggestions! Thank you!!! |
The tones in the first pic are significantly warmer and pinker, while the second pic is also cooler and greener. Something else to watch out for. |
- Posted by mtnrdredux (My Page) on Tue, Dec 4, 12 at 20:35
Who says you need a backsplash -- your inspiration pic doesn't have one. They have a strip of molding, marble perhaps. And then paint. And then framed prints. You need paint and some framed prints (all far less costly then a good b/s and easy to change or update). Go for it. Be different |

All ag, all the time
Farmer-owned radio station has served rural Nebraska for 50 years
By Paul Hammel,
World-Herald Staff Writer
Copyright Omaha World Herald;
Reprinted by permission
Lexington, Neb.-Folks said it would be a cold day when a bunch of farmers started a radio station.
They were right: It was about 20 degrees below zero on the frigid February day in 1951 when the "Rural Voice of Nebraska"-KRVN-crackled to life.
"People didn't think we'd last a year," said Max Brown, the station's first general manager.
Now, 50 years later, that unique farmer/rancher ownership has built a station with an unmatched focus on the business of agriculture and one that has avoided the topsy-turvy trends and whims of commercial radio.
Just as it has from the beginning, KRVN broadcasts an almost constant barrage of weather forecasts, farm commodity reports and livestock auction updates, as well as regular commentary from 16 different agricultural groups. Its three farm reporters file live reports from ag conventions from Orlando to Arizona and Lincoln to Lexington.
While other radio stations change ownership, swap talk-show hosts and tinker with their musical format with every new listener survey, KRVN has stood as a solid rock at 880 on the AM dial.
Only when time permits does a country-music song sneak on air. Rush Limbaugh will never bring his act to KRVN-it would take away time for constant news about pork bellies and corn futures, black baldie calves and farm legislation.
"It's all ag, all the time," said Program Manager Craig Larson. "We joke that some stations have a 'song of the day.' Well, we really have a song of the day."
Built with donations of as little as $10-each solicited over kitchen tables across Nebraska-KRVN stands as the nation's only farmer- and rancher-owned radio station.
With its sister stations, KNEB in Scottsbluff and KTIC in West Point, KRVN is the only Nebraska station with a statewide reach during daytime hours. At night, KRVN's signal is pointed west. The signal regularly reaches former Nebraskans eating breakfast in California and Arizona.
KRVN listeners can recite the date and circumstances when their initials were called on the station's longtime "Monogram Money" contest. A wheel with letters on it is spun to select three letters. If a listener's initials match up with the letters, they have two minutes to call the station and claim the prize money, which starts at $8.80.
Stories about furious sprints from tractor to telephone to call in to the contest are not uncommon.
The strong signal, a fanatical dedication to farm news and a veteran staff (the station has had only two general managers in its history and has three announcers with more than 20 years of service), have helped make the station a Nebraska institution.
"I always felt as a candidate that if I could land an interview on KRVN that was worth a lot," said Gov. Mike Johanns during a special broadcast on Feb. 1 to celebrate the station's 50th anniversary.
KRVN has been able to stick to its mission of serving farmers and ranchers because of its unique ownership and mission, said Eric Brown, the station's general manager since 1979 and Max Brown's son.
"We're not like other commercial stations. I don't have to have a 30 percent return on investment in this quarter," Eric Brown said. "We say that people get their dividends when they turn on the radio."
The station was born of necessity. Farmers and ranchers felt they weren't getting enough news about the livestock and grain prices to make smart decisions on where to sell.
There were no statewide weather forecasts 50 years ago, leaving folks vulnerable to bad weather.
By 1947, Nebraska agricultural groups had enlisted Max Brown, a former ag professor, to check out a project by the Ohio Farm Bureau to launch a radio station.
It led to a campaign in Nebraska that enlisted donations from 4,755 farmers and ranchers from every county in the state. Each "member" gets one vote in the Nebraska Rural Radio Association, which is run like a farm cooperative, with a board of directors and an annual business meeting.
Lexington became KRVN's home because of its central location. Station profits are plowed back into radio operations or donated to agricultural research or education. Only farmers and ranchers can become members.
"Our bosses are the guys out there who listen," said Mike LePorte, the station's farm service director and one of three reporters whose total focus is agriculture reporting.
"Our reason for existence is to serve farmers and ranchers," LePorte said. "That's why we take it so seriously."
KRVN pioneered the first statewide weather forecasts, paying for daily telegrams from Scottsbluff, Lincoln and Omaha to put them together. It also arranged for daily reports from the major farm markets of the day, which included the Omaha Stockyards and the Omaha Grain Exchange.
The station almost went broke in its early days, Max Brown said.
It lost several thousand dollars after buying Omaha's KOIL in 1952. The station was quickly sold after farmers, due to a drop in prices, had to renege on pledges to finance the purchase.
The struggle to expand KRVN's reach statewide led to a costly $500,000, 10-year campaign, which culminated in 1972, to change the station's dial position from its original 1010 to 880. Only one other station in the nation is at 880 on the dial, WCBS in New York City.
KRVN's daytime signal stretches from Omaha to the Panhandle and from the Sand Hills to almost the Kansas-Oklahoma border.
Although Brown had no radio experience, his staff did. The station's up-to-date market and weather information pulled in listeners, whose bottom line could be improved by thousands of dollars by timing the market or by choosing the higher-paying grain elevator or livestock auction.
Today, KRVN provides weekly reports from 16 farm organizations as well as several rural state senators. Market and auction reports are broadcast every few minutes throughout the day.
On a recent weekday, the station was abuzz with activity. It's prime time for annual meetings of farm organizations; advertisements for herbicides, seed corn and bull sales flood the airwaves; and the Nebraska Legislature's session is in full swing. All that means plenty of programming and little room for music.
Plus, a snowstorm had caught central Nebraska by surprise, dumping up to a foot of snow in some areas when only an inch had been forecast.
"Let's play that disclaimer again: KRVN is not responsible for more than an inch of snow," joked afternoon announcer Don Colvin.
While the radio industry has seen a storm of mergers and programming changes, KRVN's future seems secure.
Because of its unique ownership, it isn't likely to be purchased by a larger chain. Despite a declining number of farmers and ranchers, the station still has the highest pull of any farm station in the country-more than 50 percent of ag listeners in its area. The need for up-to-date information on farm markets and weather is as strong as ever.
"If you're serious about agriculture," said program director Larson, "you need to listen to us, or else you're going to miss something."

Don't know if it's on the map or not, but this would look great in it. (Um, what's "The Office," Alex?) Okay, I'll admit it was a stretch at best, but this would be a fun addition to the movie poster collection you may have already begun for your space. Take a closer look and discover scores of films in this retro LA street map style artwork.

Sun Smarts for This Gardener

Posted: June 23, 2008, from the June 2006 issue of Skin Inc. magazine.
page 3 of 3
● Gentle, yet long-term protection and more even coverage from the sunscreen ingredients
"One piece of advice: If any redness occurs, it's an indication that you've maxed out on your dose of sun," Rebecca stresses. "Because no sunscreen blocks all the sun's rays, any additional time spent outdoors—with or without a sunscreen—will continue to allow more exposure to your skin. So get out of the garden and back in the house. Hopefully, you've got windows or a shaded porch where you can view your gardening efforts with pride."
