Bull Shoals City Council Agrees to 3% Raise for City Employees
By: StaffPosted: Saturday, December 29, 2012
At a special meeting of the Bull Shoals City Council last night, the council members agreed to give a three percent raise to the fifteen city employees, including elected officials, that will go into effect January first of 2013. Bull Shoals Mayor Bruce Powell says the raise does not include city council members. Also at last night's meeting, according to Powell, the City Council agreed to defer amending the 2012 budgets until bills affecting the budget were paid. The final item on last night's agenda was consideration of the Arkansas Energy Code ordinance which the city council agreed not to pass. Mayor Powell says at issue was the wording of the ordinance and that it was issued by the Energy Office of the Arkansas Economic Development Commission and not the state legislature. Powell says other municipalities, including Gassville, have decided not to pass the ordinance and he will send a letter to the state advising them of the action of the city council.

'Koi Deewana Kehta Hai' (Poetry, 2008)
Dr Kumar Vishvas: Koi Deewana Kehta Hai and beyond…' (DVD, 2010)
Dr Kumar Vishvas is an Indian Youth Icon, who carries several aspects in his personality. As a celebrated Hindi poet, he is well known across the world. He is credited with reviving Hindi poetry among young generation. The tech-savvy young generation values Dr Vishvas as their icon. This is evident from the fact that on one side, where his online videos have been watched millions of times by young netizens, on the other hand his official page on a leading Social Networking website Facebook invites approximately 5 Million clicks a month.
Besides a poet, he has been recognized as a social communicator, who is known as a straight-forward speaker on social issues and as a motivator who ignites young minds with his communication expertise. A professor by profession, Dr Vishvas is also involved in writing Scripts, Lyrics and Stories for Indian Film Industry. He is the first performing poet of any language across the world, whose poems in his own voice, have been hosted as Caller-back tunes on all major telecom operators of india. Overall, Dr Kumar Vishvas is an iconic blend of a Performing Poet, an Author, a Social Communicator and a Motivator.
As a performer, Dr Kumar Vishvas has travelled across the globe. His 'Koi Deewana Kehta Hai' and 'Hotho Par Ganga Ho, Hatho me Tiranga Ho' Solo concerts have practically changed the definition of Poetic performance. The time has seen the Kavi-Sammelan format changing from traditional set-up to a stylish state-of-the-art set-up, with accessories like Fancy Lightings, Spot-light, Music-support, Collar-mics and Projector-Screen displays. A major chunk of credit for this transformation of Hindi Poetic-Concerts goes to none other than Dr Kumar Vishvas. This has definitely changed the way the generation looked at Hindi-Poetry. Unfortunately, majority of the young generation did not 'look-at' Hindi Poetry at all! The only Hindi thing the generation stopped at was 'Koi Deewana Kehta Hai'. This signature couplet by the charismatic poet Dr Kumar Vishvas became the darling of the generation, and this did not stop here! The youth demanded more, and the success of KDKH repeated with numbers like Pagli Ladki, Tiranga, Devdas Mat Hona and many more.
Today, as a performer, Dr Kumar Vishvas maintains the busiest schedule among Singers, Poets, Stand-up Comedians and Rock performers. He is possibly the only performer around the globe, who performs without any prop (besides mic) or any aide for a stretch of over two hours! Only those who have witnessed the mesmerizing LIVE performance of Dr Kumar Vishvas could feel what it is like to be one among the audiences of this person.
Besides the ever-loving youth of India, Corporate sector has considered Dr Kumar Vishvas as an integral part of their celebrations. He has always been a part of corporate milestone celebrations of several corporate houses in India and abroad.
Dr Kumar Vishvas, a celebrated Poet and an esteemed Author, has been of late considered working towards his long time mission of Igniting the Young Minds. As a public motivational speaker, Dr Kumar Vishvas has been recognized as one of the best speakers around. On one hand, where he has been empanelled with several Government organizations and corporate companies for motivational sessions, on the other hand his participation in social campaigns as main speaker and master of the ceremony has established him as one of the most effective speakers of Hindi around the globe. The corporate world invites him to motivate new employees during their induction session as well as to address senior managers during their periodic training sessions.
'Creating Leaders' is more important than being a leader is what Dr Kumar Vishvas thinks as a motivator. The 'food for thought' served by Dr Vishvas is not limited to specific motivational sessions and Social Campaigns. His poetic performances also are flavored with some serious thought-provoking talks. Even in traditional Kavi-Sammelan and his solo 'Koi Deewana Kehta Hai' shows, Dr Vishvas blends youth awakening topics regarding society, social responsibilities and how one could make himself/ herself a better person to make a better tomorrow. As a Social Communicator, Dr Vishvas has been regularly invited in several Television talk-shows for panel discussion on social issues and youth-related issues on all leading Television channels of India.
Having penned numerous poems and articles, Dr Kumar Vishvas is known to be a prominent author of Hindi language. Two of his books have been published by renowned publishing houses of India. While 'Ik Pagli Ladki Ke Bin' (1996), as a debut collection from a youngster, became an apple of eye for readers as well as critics, his second poetry collection 'Koi Deewana Kehta Hai' (2007) became a best-seller. The book created new records in sales volume in the succeeding years. It was reported as the highest selling book during events like Delhi Book Fair 2010, and World Book Fair 2011.

More than just a pretty face with a cheeky smile, Elly K, aka Laura Kirkwood, is rapidly making her mark on the Sydney music scene trading in her triangle, xylophone and years of piano lessons for a satchel of records, handful of CD's and a pair of headphones.
How would you describe your music?
Anything with good keys, hi-hats, a sexy bass line, or a cowbell. I'm a huge disco fan. But that started from listening to a lot of hip-hop when I was younger and playing "guess the sample". I'm lucky in playing a lot of gigs where I get to play different music, whether it's disco, indie funk, soul, hip hop, house, or techno.
Where did you grow up?
When did you start to DJ?
Almost two years ago.
What's on the cards for you in the next couple of months?
Lots of music, more producing, more shows, more of me basically! You'll have to keep a close eye…
Where do you want your music to take you?
I just want to continue learning as much as I can, and loving it as much as I do right now. But I think travelling around the world, and playing at festivals falls under that too, right?
What is the ultimate sign that you have made it in the music industry?
It's not something I really think of. I think once I've got some of my own tracks out that will be really exciting.
And probably when other artists/DJs I admire acknowledge those tracks…
Who is inspiring your music at the moment/Who are you listening to?
There are so many – every day I'm inspired by something I hear whether it's a new artist, new track, or remix. Todd Terje, Perseus, Danny Daze, Theophilus London, Soul Clap, Diplo, Julio Bashmore, Kreature, The 2 Bears, and Mayer Hawthorne all come to mind.
What do you like to hear when you go out?
When I go out I like to hear new music. When I hear/see a DJ playing new music to a crowd it's so exciting because they're opening up the crowds ears to new and different sounds.
Why do you like playing at The Argyle?
I've been a resident DJ at The Argyle for probably a year now. Every time I play, whether it's a cruisey cocktails-and-dinner Wednesday evening, or a late Saturday night house party, it's always fun. It's nice to play at a venue where the crowd is happy to just hear and dance to good music, and don't come asking for whatever they heard on the radio 10 times that day!!
Tell us some quirky facts about yourself (don't have to be music related)?
I used to collect snails in my lunchbox at pre-school, take them home and surprise mum. I was the only girl in an AFL team for a couple of years, while doing gymnastics, ballet, and jazz classes at the same time. Weird? Yeah.
You can catch Elly K at The Argyle every month with an eclectic mix of beats that get everyone moving. Check the calender to see when she's playing next.

Nice country pizzeria / restaurant at walking distance. Free Wi-Fi.
*Everyday Life*
A big plus for all our guests is that we live nearby. We will welcome you, show you around, provide maps of the area and give you a list of restaurants - based on our personal experience - and enjoyable excursions. We are always on hand if you need us but we will leave you to your well deserved holiday!
We sometimes see that families arrive here with the car full of groceries and food (after maybe a long journey under the hot Italian sun). Please note that most of the food you buy at home is available also here. Local supermarket Coop is open from 8AM to 9PM every day except Sunday; and 9AM to 8 PM on every other Sunday. Another supermarket, CONAD, is open from 8AM to 8PM and also every Sunday morning from 9AM to 12.30AM. And another smaller grocery shop, Gelsastore, is open any day of the year from 4 in the morning to 1 at night (fresh bread on Sundays)!
At 1,1 kms there is Il RitroVino di Caino, that sells good quality local food, cheese, extra virgin olive oil and wine and has fresh bread also on Sundays!
* Market *
A medley of colors and scents awaits you every Wednesday morning in Fucecchio in Piazza Aldo Moro.
One of the reasons to rent a holiday accommodation is that you can cook your own food and avoid eating out. You can shop at farmers' markets, try local recipes, keep your children entertained while cooking... But sometimes you just want to relax and unwind with a nice glass of wine and let others cook! Among other local area information, we will give you a list of nearby restaurants (one of them is at walking distance!) we usually go to! And we will be happy to call and reserve a table for you, if you like!
*Farmers' Market Agripolis*
Local organic and quality food in Piazza Montanelli every third Saturday of the month, 4pm - 7pm
*Palio di Fucecchio (horse race)*
Every year since 1981, there is this horse race in Fucecchio. The town is divided into contrade (just like Siena!). You will spend your holidays at La Scuola Holiday Home, so in contrada Torre, whose colours are white and blue. It is a brilliant experience. Before 'the' day, there are lots of dining occasions in each contrada, sometimes al fresco, in order to spend nice time together, get to know each other and have a home style meal with some good wine. The date of the event is usually the third Sunday of May. In the morning you can attend the historical parade with its lively display of 1200 persons in rich locally made costumes along the streets of Fucecchio. The 3 afternoon races take place at la Buca del Palio (Via Fratelli Rosselli in Fucecchio). Palio might last until sunset! The races only last a minute or two, so you have to spend some time in Fucecchio beforehand, soaking up the atmosphere and the rivalry between the different districts, each of which is represented in the first two races. For a fucecchiese, Palio is like Football World Cup for Italians! The date for 2015 is the 24th of May!
*Infiorata di Corpus Domini (flower carpets)*:
On the Sunday of Corpus Domini the streets of historic Fucecchio are covered by beautiful floral carpets. In Fucecchio the custom of sprinkling the streets with flowers and forest sprigs compose sacred figures, dates back to the 30es but it was only in 1990 that the Flower Festival has become a tradition.
The carpet of flowers are displayed in the old city centre, starting from and coming back to the Collegiate Church. The materials used are many varieties of seasonal flowers (poppies, brooms, carnations, roses ...) and many other type of natural material (grapes, coffee, wood chips ...).
*Padule di Fucecchio, a bird watchers' paradise*
The Padule di Fucecchio is the largest non-coastal marshland area in Italy (around 1,800 hectares!).
The Padule is one of the last refuges for many plant species (the yellow floating heart or water fringe, now very rare in Tuscany, or white and yellow pondlilies, etc.), and is a big attraction for birdwatching enthusiasts, especially during the spring migration. Over 150 species can be observed throughout the year, at least fifty of which are nesting birds. Of particular interest are the herons, which nest in colonies, and migratory birds like the stilt bird, crane and black stork. There are 9 nature trails in the marshes, most on foot, some by car.

The pool rules are also stated on posters in the holiday home, and for your own health and safety it is important that you follow these rules. Otherwise, La Scuola srl cannot be held responsible for any inconveniences.
I was born in Fucecchio and I have been living here all of my life. Even if I have been working in the fashion industry for more than 20 years now, I am more and more interested in the holiday rental world. I also attended a course to become a professional manager in hospitality and tourism management; it was fun to come back to school. I even started a blog about everyday life in Tuscany. You learn something new every day!
Ms. Tiziana Fierli purchased this apartment in 1998
My father bought this property in the late '90. It was in such a state! No heating, no electricity, no running water! He started to restore it (with Italian burocracy, this process can take a lot of time and even more patience!), then came with this idea: 'Why don't we rent to tourists?'. At that time (pre-internet era for me) I thought it was a terrible idea. 'Tourists in Fucecchio? This is not going to happen!'. How wrong I was!
It is easy to fall in love with this location! Splendid views over a tranquil valley, fantastic pool. Real possibility of reaching from nearby Empoli train station: Florence in 24 minutes, Pisa in 28 minutes and Siena in 45 minutes (stress free solution), or Lucca in under 30 minutes by car.
We are back and missing our Home in Tuscany. Our stay was wonderful, we are planing to go back in a future. So many places to see that in our four days stay we miss few places that we want to visit.
It was great to meet you at the restaurant, it was a pleasant surprise to see you there!!!
We enjoy the villa very much and took wonderful pictures!

A few weeks ago, our family visited Walden Pond for the first time. Walden was made famous by author and naturalist Henry David Thoreau. Born in Concord, Thoreau was good friends with Ralph Waldo Emerson, Louisa May Alcott and Nathanial Hawthorne. For two years (from 1845-1847) Thoreau lived in a self-built cabin on property owned by Emerson adjacent to Walden Pond. This period served as the basis for Thoreau's book Walden, or Life in the Woods. Today Walden Pond serves as a destination place for many people attracted by Thoreau's vision of simple living, and for many other people, who were no doubt, forced to read Walden during high school English class.
Although our family has lived in the Greater Boston area for around fifteen years, it wasn't until this September that we finally visited Walden Pond. Although, we love to take the girls to parks, we just never got around to visiting Walden, which is only thirty minutes from our home. It would be fair to say that we had nothing more than a passing familiarity with Thoreau. We basically knew him as this famous naturalist guy, who lived next to this pond and who wrote a book. I was also aware that Don Henley of Eagle fame, had supported the preservation of the area around the pond. Carla, my more literate half, once tried reading Walden, but stopped midway, feeling somewhat unimpressed with Thoreau as a person. In her words, Thoreau was "self-absorbed" and "entitled."
Casting away all aspersions against Thoreau, we decided to visit Walden Pond this past Labor Day weekend. More lake than pond, Walden was a very pleasant visit. Walden has a rocky beach encircling part of the pond. The fact that this was a rocky beach was of great interest to my girls who hold great love both for rocks and beaches. If given the opportunity (which we didn't give them), they probably would have taken every rock off that beach, stuffing them into their pockets. (What is it about kids and rocks??) Not far off the beach, we saw a sign advertising "Thoreau's Cabin site". I'm still not sure how we got started on our little quest. It went something like this. . .
"Hey Look, Johanna!" remarked Carla, "There is a sign for Thoreau's cabin. Shall we go and take a look?"
"Yeah!!!" responded Johanna with a full throated roar, as she ran down the trail alongside the pond.
Keep in mind that up to this point Johanna had never heard of David Thoreau. This is the first time she ever heard Thoreau's name, and at this point she largely knew him as "that guy who lived next to a lake." Of course, the fact that Thoreau actually lived next to a pond in a cabin, probably made him a person of interest for Johanna. I mean, who wouldn't want to live in a cabin next to a lake!!??
So our family walked around Walden Pond. With each sign announcing "To Thoreau's Cabin site", Johanna got more and more excited. Finally, we crested a hill and saw the site of Thoreau's cabin. Unfortunately, the signs were only too accurate in their description, because that's all we found at the top of the hill, a pile of stones with one final sign announcing that this was the site of Thoreau's cabin. Apparently the cabin was long gone.
Johanna was crestfallen.
"Where is the cabin?" asked Johanna.
What could we say?
"It's gone honey. It's not there anymore" we sadly told our very disappointed daughter. Of course, by this point, the absence of the cabin was pretty obvious, but what could we really say?
The fact that there was no cabin was pretty awful for Johanna. She was near tears. She roamed around the site, going into the nearby woods and looking over the hill, thinking perhaps they might have misplaced the cabin, but this was it. We had walked all this way and no cabin. How can I describe this in a way you can understand? Think for a moment if Dorothy and her friends had walked all the way down the yellow brick road to the Emerald City, and were turned away at the gate before seeing the Wizard. This pretty much describes Johanna's emotions in the moment.
"Who destroyed Thoreau's cabin?" asked Johanna, "Why did they destroy Thoreau's cabin? They must have destroyed his cabin, so we couldn't see it!"
We weren't really sure about who the "they" were who destroyed Thoreau's cabin. We tried explaining to Johanna how we were just as disappointed as she was, but that the cabin was likely gone for a very long time.
Nevertheless, Johanna insisted someone must have destroyed the cabin in order to prevent her from seeing it. Putting myself in Johanna's place and knowing my daughter as I do, I can imagine what she must have been thinking. Many times in the past Johanna has built things around our home, out of cardboard or Legos only to have her little sister Emma destroy her creation. In those moments, Johanna would rage against her sister, the one who destroys everything of beauty she tries to create. In this case, it was obvious that Emma could not have destroyed Thoreau's cabin, but clearly there was someone out there, someone sinister, someone evil, who destroyed Thoreau's cabin.
Even in the moment, it was kind of funny. Johanna, who wouldn't know Thoreau from our neighbors dog, desperately wanted to see that cabin. Failing to find it, and bitterly upset, Johanna took it personally.
Overall, while it was funny, and if I had dared, I probably would have laughed, my Johanna's response to the "destruction of Thoreau's cabin" was priceless. It was endearing, because our little girl, for a moment let her imagination run wild. She imagined an almost ancient cabin trapped in the woods, where a man, long dead, lived next to a beautiful pond. Johanna had these incredible expectations and those expectations were dashed. Yeah, I suppose if Johanna's parents were a little more literate and aware, we could have deduced that Thoreau's cabin was long gone, but there's also something beautiful about my daughter's innocence.
In our world, we try to avoid disappointment by getting rid of expectations. We refuse to expect, we refuse to hope and we settle for what is sitting in front of us. As we get older and wiser, we rid ourselves of expectations and dreams. Those things are for the young. Those things are for the naïve. Those things are for kids. While we might be wiser and more realistic, we are also somehow poorer. For a glorious moment, Johanna found herself on an adventure. She was Johanna the explorer going through an old forest in search of a cabin. Unfortunately she was disappointed this one time, but far from wanting my little girl to give up and become more realistic, I want her to continue to dream and hope and never fail to have expectations of what might be possible.
After our visit, we learned that there is actually a replica of the cabin in the parking lot. Maybe next time. To be sure, next time we will tell Johanna that this is only a replica and that the real cabin turned to dust long ago.

I have this climber on my back wall. It has been easy to take care of and actually survived the 07 winter!
I would like to find more of this vine but I don't know what it is - any help? |

That would be vigna caracalla aka snail vine. If you had one that survived, you can do a "layering" to create more vines off of the one you've already got. Just take a portion of the vine, lay it against the ground and toss a little soil over a few areas that you'd like to have grow roots. Wait... and you'll have new runners suitable for growing new plants. Or, you can go to Home Depot and buy them off the shelf. :) |
I cut a small piece off mine and put it in one of those jiffy pellets inside of a 2 liter bottle, near a window. Didn't take long to root and now I've transplated it into a small styrofoam coffee cup. I figure by the time it out grows that I'll be ready to transplant it out into the yard. The layering methods works good too as I've started a lot of plants that way. Good Luck and Happy Gardening! Gemfire |

Cycling: Top twelve intersections for bike-vehicle crashes in Denver
There are a lot more bikes sharing the road with cars in Denver, which has created an increasing number of conflicts and collisions on the street. We wrote about the worst crash of 2012 in this week's feature, "On a Roll," which explores the growth of Denver as a bike city. Here, we give you the twelve worst intersections for bike-vehicle crashes in Denver over roughly the last decade.
We recently took an in-depth look at how crashes have been increasing and who is at fault. But where in the city are the crashes happening most frequently? This is an important question to cycling advocates, who emphasize that better infrastructure for cyclists is one of the best ways a city can increase safety and limit conflicts and crashes on the road.
As part of our reporting for the feature, we connected with Krista Nordback, a researcher with the University of Colorado Denver who studies bike safety. In her dissertation, she analyzed bike safety and crashes locally -- and combed through Denver data to identify the worst spot for bike-vehicle crashes. As part of this effort, she identified the top intersections for crashes over a seven-year period, from 2003 to 2009. Below are the top ten spots for crashes -- although it's worth emphasizing that the data stops at 2009, and the city has greatly expanded its bike infrastructure since then.
Nordback sent us the top intersections for downtown that had five or more crashes, as well as the top ones citywide that had six or more. We've put them all in one list, with additional downtown or citywide info at the bottom.
12. Broadway and 8th Avenue: Five crashes
11. Broadway and 14th Avenue: Five crashes
10. Lincoln Street and 18th Avenue: Five crashes
9. Federal Boulevard and West 32nd Avenue: Six crashes
Continue for the rest of the list and the breakdown in Downtown Denver.

Latin King members sentenced; Lansing man gets 15 years
By Teresa Auch Schultz email@example.com November 29, 2012 2:54PM
Updated: January 1, 2013 6:27AM
An Illinois man will spend 15 years in prison in exchange for pleading guilty to taking part in the Latin Kings racketeering conspiracy.
David "Flaco" Lira, 39, is one of the first of more than 20 defendants to be sentenced in the case. Lira, who was charged a year ago in the case, admitted earlier this year in the U.S. District Court in Hammond that he joined the Latin Kings as a child and that he let co-defendants stash guns at his house in Lansing, Ill. The defendants used those guns a few days later in the killings of two rival gang leaders, James Walsh and Gonzalo Diaz, just outside the Griffith restaurant Sopranos.
All but two of the defendants in the case have pleaded guilty. Two other Chicago defendants, Bianca Fernandez and Serina Arambula, were sentenced earlier this week after pleading guilty to playing a part in the killings of a rival gang member in November 2006. Fernandez received 36 months in prison, and Arambula was sentenced to 21 months.

All told, everything turned out OK last year, so there's no reason to think this year will be any worse, Wiers said.
"We had a fair amount of product. It's just unfortunate that you had a situation where the prices were lower than you anticipate," he said.
"All in all, we were satisfied with it, but we anticipate a better year this year."
First crops
Wiers said he expected to be shipping greens and green onions by mid-June. Radishes got underway after Memorial Day.
"Then, we add more items to the varieties we grow, the peppers, and we get those at the end of July and summer squash in early July," he said, adding that hard squashes and pumpkins follow.
Growers were itching to get the deal going, said Frank Cangemi, owner/buyer of Miles Farmers Market in Solon, Ohio.
"Everybody's looking forward to it due to the simple fact that consumers, more than ever, are taking Ohio-grown and locally grown, and it seems more farms are geared toward that direction," he said.

CLC Systems - Machine Planning and Data Capture
Mould Shop Management System
MSMS Features
Paint Planner
Contact Us
Where do we fit into your business
MRP and ERP systems are not designed to plan automotive mould shops or paint plants. They can not handle complex and fast moving constraints like labour, setter and packaging availability, scrap and downtime or non-process scrap and quality concerns. They are not sophisticated enough to consider track layout, primer change constraints, minimum colour run lengths or the many other factors that affect your paint plan.
Our systems take over where an MRP or ERP system ends. An integrated planning and data capture system means that you can have effective planning and accurate performance reporting with the minimum of effort.
The systems pull all available demand and stock information together and show where the plan will lead to shortages. The mould system shows where you will have too few men to run the planned jobs, where tool changes will conflict and when stillages will be needed. We do not attempt to automate planning decisions. We aim to make planning a much easier process by providing clarity.
Our Business Philosophy
Our systems are available through low cost monthly rental. There are no minimum contracts. We aim to forge a real partnership with your manufacturing and logistics staff to ensure our systems continue to add value. We do this through offering high levels of support as part of the standard monthly rental. Unlike most system providers, we don't just offer bug fixes, we are on hand to help your staff with all aspects of the system.
Your business never stands still. Continuous improvement throughout the supply chain leads to ongoing product changes that need to be reflected in the system and we are here to help with those changes.
We deliver a turn key solution. This will require bespoke demand and stock import routines as well as reporting tailored to your needs. As your business changes our system will change with it. If it doesn't, you will stop using it.
With our experience, low cost base and can-do approach we aim to give you the best value system possible.

Gilbert football coach Leland Rodgers said he was fired by the school Friday afternoon.
Rodgers said his dismissal stems from what he called an "anonymous parent" accusing him of improper verbal and physical treatment toward players.
"We have the highest expectations for all of our athletic programs at Gilbert High School," Gilbert principal Christopher Stroud wrote in an email on Saturday. "We not only want to build a competitive spirit within our students but also build positive personal characteristics. We are proud of the hard work our student athletes put in each and every day, and each and every season."
"During this past season the Gilbert High School Football program has had too many distractions in order to maintain those standards. Accordingly, we have decided to go in a different direction with Coach Rodgers. We thank him for his service, and we wish him all the best in his future pursuits."
"Gilbert High School has epitomized tradition and excellence since 1918. I, along with the staff and students, intend to continue that here at GHS. We look forward to seeking out a qualified candidate who can help take this football program to the next level."
According to Rodgers, a parent went to Stroud and athletic director Dan Haasch alleging Rodgers made kids do extra physical punishments for missing or being late to practice. The parent also alleged an assistant coach used profanity toward one of the players.
Rodgers denied any wrongdoing and said an investigation revealed no specifics. Rodgers also said he'd never "had any kind of conversation" with the parent, nor ever had conversations with any parent about his players' treatment. He said he received a letter directive from the district after the investigation, and was told his job was safe. Rodgers said he has his kids do "up-down" running drills similar to several schools, but said his players were never in danger health-wise and was never told what was "excessive." He also said the assistant coach in question was suspended for a week.
When he was asked to resign Friday, he refused.
"I'm not going to have an admission of guilt or resign when I haven't done anything and nobody has said I have done anything," he said. "They told me nothing was specifically up against me they backed me and I don't understand what changed or why.
"…For some random person to bring up stuff like this is disheartening. If I deserved it, that I screwed up and don't deserve to be around kids anymore, that's on me. But apparently instead I aggravated someone I shouldn't have and don't know what I did. It's disappointing there wasn't more (administration) support when nothing really happened."
"(The parent) was going to threaten to go to the school board and (Gilbert administration) came back and told me to resign so they'd go away. I said no, I hadn't done anything wrong and nobody could offer specifics. I've never met the person and never talked to them."
Rodgers said an email was sent to administration (he was not included) two weeks ago. A number of players went to superintendent Dave Allison on Thursday and Stroud on Friday in support of Rodgers. Senior quarterback Conner Helvig wasn't aware of Rodgers' dismissal late Friday afternoon but knew an email alleging complaints had been sent to administration two weeks ago.
"I can see where (the anonymous parent) is coming from but don't think it was anything to be fired for," Helvig said.
Gilbert was 3-7 this year in Rodgers' first season at the school. Before being hired by Gilbert to replace Dan Dunn, he was the defensive coordinator under Matt Gracey at Mesquite (Gracey resigned last week), and, previously under former Wildcats coach Mike Reardon. He worked briefly with Dunn at Mesa Community College, and at Mesquite under Rich Iverson. He played at Dobson.
Rodgers will continue to teach at the school. But besides suddenly being out of a coaching job, a precedent of having a person allege anything the person wants, anonymously, and see the administration act upon it, has him worried.
"There isn't anything I can do, and anything that was said was either disproven or handled," he said. "Someone got away with saying things and threatening to go further and further up (within the district), and it's not true, and nothing happens to them. I think it's outrageous. My parting words would be good luck to anyone who takes this job."

Defense like Cheese? Brunner tearing it up in Swiss League

Joe Thornton has 8 points in 8 games about the same pace he scores at in the NHL for comparison.I've had about enough of all this lockout talk. As best as I can tell given that I don't speak Swiss, Damien Brunner is tearing it up in the Swiss League. 5 goals and 7 assists in 9 games. Additionally he's got nearly twice as many shots on goal as the Omark (who leads the team in points, though with two more games than Brunner). Absolutely can't wait until Hank gets over there and suits up with him, I'm dying to see what Brunner's shot can do with Z creating space for him. His release is quick and should be very effective in the NHL, and his finishing ability seems (admittedly based on not much) to be better than Hudler's. Here's hoping all that success isn't do to shoddy Swiss defense. I've got high hopes for this guy!

come on season.
as long as he doesn't get creamed in the first 30 games....we may have a bona-fide scorer on our hands.

Makes 4 servings
active time
45 min
total time
1 1/2 hr
- 4 (1 1/4- to 1 1/2-pound) live lobsters
- 2 pounds small (1 1/2- to 2-inch) boiling potatoes (preferably yellow-fleshed)
- 3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
- 5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon dried hot red-pepper flakes, or to taste
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
- 1/2 pound baby arugula (about 10 cups loosely packed)
- Accompaniment: lemon wedges
Plunge lobsters headfirst into a 12-quart pot of boiling salted water . Cook, covered, over high heat 4 minutes (for 1 1/4-lb lobster) to 5 minutes (for 1 1/2-lb lobster) from time they enter water. Transfer with tongs to a large colander to drain and cool. (Lobsters will not be fully cooked.) Return cooking water to a boil.
Add potatoes to boiling water and simmer, uncovered, until just tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain in a colander.
When lobsters are cool enough to handle, twist off claws (including knuckles) and crack with a meat mallet or rolling pin. Halve lobsters lengthwise using a large heavy knife. Reserve green tomalley and any orange roe from bodies for another use if desired.
Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (moderately high heat for gas).
While grill heats, whisk together vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, red-pepper flakes, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Add oil in a slow stream, whisking until well blended, then stir in basil.
Halve potatoes. Oil grill rack, then grill potatoes, cut sides down, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over once, until grill marks appear, about 4 minutes total. Transfer to a bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons vinaigrette. Keep potatoes warm, covered.
Oil grill rack, then grill 4 lobster halves, cut sides down, and all of claws, covered only if using a gas grill, until grill marks appear on meat, about 4 minutes. Turn over bodies and claws and grill in same manner 4 minutes more. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with 1/4 cup vinaigrette, then keep warm, covered. Grill remaining lobster halves in same manner and add to same bowl, tossing to coat.
Arrange arugula on a large platter and top with grilled lobster and potatoes. Drizzle with 1/2 cup vinaigrette and serve remaining vinaigrette on the side.
Cooks' notes:
Lobsters can be cooked in 2 batches in an 8- to 10-quart pot.
If you aren't able to grill outdoors, lobsters and potatoes can be cooked in a hot oiled well-seasoned large (2-burner) ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.

text: THE SEMI-SUPERVILLAINS – TRICKS (no label) Formed at Pittsburgh's Duquesne University in 2010, the Semi-Supervillains deliver a vigorous, garage-rocking wallop on their first full-length CD, Tricks. The band's nucleus of founder, singer, guitarist and keyboardist Vinnie Longhi and bassist Ron Rekowski team with several drummers and noted producer/multi-instrumentalist Rick Witkowski to lay down a raucous, guitar-fueled garage rock sound. The group's style displays the go-for-broke demeanor of Jet or White Stripes, but also captures the spirit of classic '60s-era garage rockers like the Kingsmen, Kinks and early Who. The disc's 11 songs are compact, with catchy hooks and to-the-point melodies; providing the backdrops for Longhi's lyrical odes to boy-meets-girl ups and downs. The Semi-Supervillains offer four quality textbook crash-bang-wallop guitar-rock exercises to launch the album; the disc-opening title track "Tricks," "Magic Touch," "Black Letter" and "Learned My Lesson"; and stomp hard on the crunchy "Trolls." They accelerate to punk-like velocity on "Come On Pain Give Me Sympathy" and the disc-finisher "Start the Show," and provide infectious ska chops on "Right for All." The group crafts a catchy R&B-like pop melody on "Fool for You," taps a McCoys "Hang On Sloopy" vibe with the playful "She Put a Spell on Me," and belts out a convincing doo-wop ballad on "Say the Word." The Semi-Supersonics deliver all of it with a caution-to-the-wind velocity and abundant enthusiasm; yet the execution is airtight and dead-on. Longhi's vocals are playful and tuneful, yet capable of going off the deep end at any moment. Witkowski's studio finish enables The Semi-Supervillains to sound sharp and edgy, yet polished and radio-ready. No trickery involved, Tricks delivers a refreshing, awakening garage-rocking slap to the cranium, and The Semi-Supervillains provide a stripped-down, fun and raucous listen. (The CD can be obtained through the group's Reverbnation website, www.reverbnation.com/semisupervillains.)

Any one else going to do a Super Bowl Sunday mystery quilt? There a couple of shops that are doing them here but still quite a drive from me and the weather may be iffy. So I hunted online for one. (I am blaming Dan the mailman for this!)
I am actually going to work on two. Call me "she who has lost touch with reality" now. They start from different time zones. One has all the clues posted for pre cuts, so that is done. I've never done one so this could be the beginning of the end of my sanity (good thing DH and the kids don't hang out here to comment) or great fun! Dee |
Follow-Up Postings:
Dee, The few mysteries I have done I wasn't happy with. So now I save then until I see what the finished quilt looks like lol!!! However, I did like the last one Dan did! What is the URL for the one you are planning? Rosa |
Umm, sigh, No. I never do mystery quilts! Fabric is expensive, so I won't waste even scraps unless I know how a quilt will turn out. I have about 8 mystery quilt instruction sets saved, and none have ever inspired me to make an actual quilt. Aside from that, in order to preserve the "mystery" often the cutting directions are wasteful - meaning if I knew the end result, I could cut and piece more economically. |
- Posted by faintheart (My Page) on Sat, Feb 4, 12 at 19:50
Rosa, posted the link below for the April Breezes/March Winds mystery. Mary, I know I may not like how it turns out. I normally use a subdued color palette and went outside of my comfort zone so I very well could hate it! DD likes the fabric chosen and said she wants it when done. We'll see if I have to remind her! :) |
Here is a link that might be useful: April Breezes/March WInds
- Posted by dan_the_mailman (My Page) on Sat, Feb 4, 12 at 20:20
Dee, TWO AT THE SAME TIME????? Don't blame me for your insanity!!! LOL, lot's of luck! I may be your enabler, but don't blame me if they become an addiction, okay? All kidding aside, even if you don't like the end result, there's always someone who would like a great comfy lap quilt and you could always finish it off and make a great gift to someone. So have fun, and have a great day! And remember to post pics!!! So, as a fellow addict I have to ask, where's the website link for the 2nd one? -Dan (the addicted enabler) |
faintheart, I was considering the April Breezes/March Winds Mystery quilt too. But like rosajoe, I haven't always been pleased with the design of mystery quilts and hate to spend all that time, effort, and fabric on something I won't like afterward. It's too bad they can't give a sneak peak at the finished quilt before it starts. I was thinking of finding a previous year's mystery quilt that I liked, and doing it. |
- Posted by toolgranny (My Page) on Sat, Feb 4, 12 at 22:02
I think just watching the game is less stressful. I'll be thinking about you. |
I have done 2 mystery quilts and did not like either of them. When they were done, had I seen the finished product I would have used different fabric colors. Not to mention there was a mistake in the directions and was not reported before that section was already finished and we moved on. Also, one I did that was suppose to be lap size and ended up being the most odd ball lap size I ever saw... and that was the end of my mystery quilt adventure. |
Dee the finished quilt is really cute!!! I like the secondary X's and O's! Rosa |
- Posted by dan_the_mailman (My Page) on Sun, Feb 5, 12 at 18:48
I'm with Rosajoe, that quilt is cool! After checking out the finished product of both the April Breezes/March Winds Mystery quilts, I believe I'm going to have to copy the directions for both and add them to my list of things to do. So Dee, got pix? Dan |
- Posted by faintheart (My Page) on Mon, Feb 13, 12 at 19:48
- Posted by dan_the_mailman (My Page) on Mon, Feb 13, 12 at 20:14
Dee, I like your ideas about the piano key border and the floral border, but how about inserting a 1-2" border between the florals and the keyboard of the background border in the middle? Not only would that "echo" the middle further out, but it would give your eyes a place to rest between the business of the floral and piano keys borders. Whatever you do, you've got yourself a great quilt! Dan |

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 Whiskey!
Facts about Whiskey
- Breed: Border Collie/Australian Shepherd Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Whiskey's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, and not good with cats.
My name is Whiskey! I am a 4 year old neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped Border Collie/Australian Shepherd Mix.
I am a very happy boy who LOVES people. I love kids also but I get a little to excited playing fetch and tag so I may knock smaller ones over! I know basic commands and I walk OK on a leash! I would like to be a single dog in your life, I chase cats.I am looking for a forever homes where I can be a star!
If you would like to know more about Whiskey please fill out a statement of interest at www.alternativehumanesociety.com under the Adopt tab
Other Pets at Alternative Humane Society of Whatcom County
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Whiskey, a Bellingham Border Collie/Australian Shepherd dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Border Collie/Australian Shepherd for sale in Bellingham, or seeking a Border Collie/Australian Shepherd dog from a breeder in Bellingham.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Bellingham 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 Bellingham 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 Border Collie/Australian Shepherd breeders who help with Border Collie/Australian Shepherd rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Bellingham paves the way for another one to be saved.

I wanted to show you guys swatches of the new Too Faced Melted swatches. This is not really a review, because I'm the type of person that if I don't have anything bad to say about a product, I don't say anything at all. I love everything about these lipsticks and I just want to share some photos with you!
Left side from top to bottom: Melted Violet, Melted Nude, Melted Coral
Right side from top to bottom: Melted Ruby, Melted Fuchsia, Melted Poppy
Top Row from left to right: Melted Coral, Melted Nude, Melted Fuchsia
Bottom Row from left to right: Melted Poppy, Melted Violet, Melted Ruby
Quick rundown
Melted Coral is an orange toned coral. This one applied a little streaky.
Melted Nude is a beige toned nude that surprisingly worked great on my skintone
Melted Fuchsia is a hot pink
Melted Poppy is a soft beige toned pink. I was apprehensive about this shade, but it's beautiful and worked well on my skintone. This was another streaky shade for me
Melted Violet is a lilac toned purple. Bright and bold and fun.
Melted Ruby is a bright red
Too Faced Melted retails for $21. Pick these up at Sephora, Beauty.com, Macy's and Planet Beauty. Shop using the widget below.

PEX and plastic tanks that cannot take really HOT water, would be best to NOT use in a woodstove coil system. Theres plenty of materials that can take the heat. Such as copper, galvanized steel, and even the orange PEX-AL-PEX (aluminum tubing that has the cross linked polyethylene coating inside and out, and a much higher temp rating than PEX).
For low electric consumption consider a thermosiphon system from the woodstove coils to your hot water storage tank. Such systems use no pumps or electricity. (the limitation is that your woodstove coils MUST be lower than the close by storage tank and the tank must be large enough to handle the output of the coils you are using...).
A storage tank lets you use the heat when and as you need it, even for heating awhile after your woodstove fire has gone out. The storage tank is like a buffer that compensates for the inconsistent output of wood stoves. It should be able to handle the almost boiling water that your woodstove coils will sometimes build up to. The higher it can handle the more BTUs it can store. A common electric water heater tank makes a good inexpensive heat storage tank (even if you will never be able to connect its electric heating coils). They are so common they are inexpensive to buy. Get the type with 2 side fittings, one drain and one relief valve (high and low) on the tank's same side, for easy plumbing to your stove coils.
Trying to control your coils' output relying on a pump could be a catastrophy if your power or pump goes out while a hot fire is going. It is not a very fail safe design.
If you want the "lower-temp-capable" PEX on your heating loops, such as in a slab, use a tempering valve to mix the hot (from the tank) and cooler (return loop) water as it is circulated. Those are commonly used for solar potable water applications, but could work as well in hydronic service.
Making your overall system able to handle the hotter water would allow for conserving the electricity used for circulation. Less gallons would have to be pumped.
I didn't mention that another plus of using the water heater tank for storage is that you could have the electric heating coils for a backup heat source if you're away, or just let the fire die out.
The woodstove coils are usually intended to be used for potable water heating. Your storage tank should double for that also. Generally, the capacity of the coils used for heating potable water would not be large enough for hydronic heating applications. It could be a great supplemental heat source, though, and good for heating some remote place in your house that is hard to get the woodstove heat to. Adding more or larger coils (in a big enough woodstove) could give you some hydronic heating capacity.
I make my own stove coils, welding together stainless steel pipe or boiler tubing, but most of the time now I refer folks to a manufacturer's website for info on stove coils. They have installation diagrams, and offer many kits as well as custom made coils service. Welding, I cannot compete with their mandrel bent coils systems, except for making cheap ones for myself now.
Given that plastic plumbing components, such as pex and plastic tanks, have a maximum temperature rating: Would it be possible to add a simple temperature control to a heating coil mounted in a wood stove to prevent the outgoing water from exceeding the maximum temperature?
I picture a DC circulator pump, a temperature sensor for the output water and some sort of controller to vary the voltage to the DC pump to maintain the water at a specified temperature. But what would that controller be ?
This might also provide greater electrical efficiency for the off-gridders. For a simplistic example: instead of pumping water at 10gpm and 24vdc and getting output temp of 150F, one might pump at 5gpm and 12vdc getting a desired output temp of 180F. Why circulate the water more often that necessary when your electrical resources may be limited ?
