About This Project
My wife and I decided it was time to give our new TV a home. We began looking on ana-white.com and saw a beautiful black entertainment center. That is where I received my inspiration. It is a very similar design however, I decided to change the color and add inset doorsand drawers.
Everywhere we looked for an entertainment center, it was either too pricey, or the measurements were not right. I decided to come up with a plan for an entertainment center that would fit perfectly into our little niche.

entertainment center
I LOVE your entertainment center....exactly what we are working on as we speak. Ours will be a little larger (12 foot wide) after adding on two end shelves to hold lots of DVD's!! I know I want the white color, but could you give a little more information on the distressing and finishing? We've never done that before. Thanks!
Hey Jana,
What I did was kind of a pain. To give the entertainment center the distressed looked, I stained all the areas that we were going to distress a dark walnut. After we allowed that to dry, we painted it with white latex paint. Since we were painting over a dark walnut stain, it took about 3 coats to completely cover the color. After 24 hours of drying we sanded it with 100 grit sand paper on all the areas we wanted distressed. You will want to lightly sand it until the dark walnut color comes through. Avoiding sanding too hard as you will sand through the stain.
We still have some distressing that we would like to do on it, but we need to get a wire sponge for that, and just haven't gotten around to it. The sand paper works really well on corners, but not so much on the face of the wood. We haven't sealed it completely since we still have some areas to distress, but will use a water-based sealer.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

It looks great. How did you attach the side units to the middle unit? Are the drawer fronts just solid 12" x 12" with the decorate trim attached to front? I can't tell if the portion where the handle is attached is recessed or not. And lastly, are those 1" x 3" trim pieces around the drawers?
Hey Davidmac,
The trim is all 1x3 solid pine, including the trim around the drawers. The drawers measure out to 10x10. I built the drawer faces the same way I built the cabinet doors. I used 1x3 trim and dado'd a 1/4" groove to inset a 1/4" piece of plywood. I then added molding to give the drawers and cabinet doors a more detailed look, so it is recessed where the handle is attached.
The side units are attached by 1 1/4" screws that are hidden behind the trim. Easy access to remove for any future moves.

Are there actual plans for this? I just see it in another brag post. but no actual laid out plans.

Hi, we built the original entertainment center that everyone got their inspiration from. Since everyone was requesting plans, my husband got to work and drew up some plans. Here's the link:
Good luck! Let us know if you build it!

Where can I find plans for this. Beautiful.
Unfortunately, there isn't a set of plans for this entertainment center on the site. I looked at the Entertainment Center for Kristen Lotz and built my own plans according to her pictures, with a few adjustments. If you have any questions, I will be more than happy to help you out.

I just checked in onto this site for the first time in awhile and I saw your entertainment center. I knew you must have gotten inspiration from ours... I love how yours turned out! I love the white, I love the distressing, and I love the inset doors and drawers with all the details. It turned out absolutely beautiful. Good job!
Thanks Kristen and thank you for the inspiration. When I saw yours on ana-white, I knew that is what I wanted in my living room. I also thought it was genius to put the DVD Player etc... up higher so the kids can't play with it. We are really happy with it.
kristenlotz replied on Permalink
I finally got around to making the plans for our entertainment center (well, actually my husband did it). It is very similar to yours except the inset doors and drawers, the door and drawer trim and the finish colors. Hopefully that helps those looking for plans for this beautiful entertainment center. I love finding brag posts of similar entertainment centers because they are absolutely beautiful at a fraction of the cost of buying one. And we love telling people that we built it!

Did you do an under coat or did you just add stain to the sanded areas? Love the look.

Cool Gardens is a public exhibition of contemporary garden and art installations offering a shift of sensation for the summer—cooling—as a general theme for public projects in the downtown, bringing architects, designers, landscape architects, and artists together to celebrate contemporary garden culture and the local landscape. The presentation of cutting edge garden designs places design culture at the centre of summer activities in Winnipeg, at the same time offering a pleasant relief from the summer exasperation.
Presented by StorefrontMB and the Forks, and intended to mirror the internationally acclaimed Warming Huts program, Cool Gardens will take place from July 10th to September 28th 2014. The exhibition site runs from VIA Rail's Union Station to Provencher Boulevard, calling attention to the amazing but generally unrecognized pedestrian linkage.
Cool Gardens presents an alternative attraction for tourist participation in the downtown, increasing the visitation of locals and guests around the celebration and the exchange between nature and art. This year's Cool Gardens also brings a visiting garden from the International Garden Festival Les Jardins de Métis/Reford Gardens from Quebec, ranked among the leading garden festivals in the world.
Partners for Cool Gardens 2014 are The Forks, La Maison des Artistes and StorefrontMB. David Penner is the curator.
Installations in the exhibition included works by Montreal landscape architect Claude Cormier and Winnipeg's own Ewa Tarsia, SPMB and ATLRG.
Event Sponsor is the Manitoba Association of Architects.

Pretty nice base layer
I got these and have used them a few times for pre-season shred. Its been down to 10 degrees F, with these and my normal pants. Kept me super warm and dry. These are dry ride. which does its job and does draw the sweat away from you and keep you dry. Also it has this channel technology that has better airflow, so it drys faster. These are a great base layer with a pretty hefty price tag. But if you want in my opinion the best base layer I have worn, get these you wont be disappointed.

Anger over Obama's meeting with Ariz. governor
POSTED: Thursday, June 3, 2010 - 9:31am
UPDATED: Saturday, July 3, 2010 - 4:38am
WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama's planned meeting Thursday with Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer faces a protest from opponents of Arizona's new immigration law.
Opponents say the law, which Brewer signed, is discriminatory and say Obama isn't doing enough on immigration reform.
Brewer is to meet Obama at the White House, and opponents said they will hold a demonstration there to denounce the Republican governor, "the discriminatory Arizona law she signed" and "President Obama's halfhearted leadership on immigration reform."
Supporters of an overhaul of U.S. immigration law have accused Obama of not pushing Congress hard enough to pass immigration legislation. Some have said Arizona's law and tough immigration laws in other states are symptoms of a broken immigration system.
Arizona's new law, scheduled to take effect July 29, will require police enforcing any other law to examine immigration status if there is reasonable suspicion a person is in the country illegally. It also makes being in the country illegally a state crime.
Obama says the law is the wrong approach to illegal immigration and his administration is combing through it and preparing for a possible legal challenge. Brewer has been soliciting donations from the law's supporters to defend it.
In an interview Wednesday, Brewer said she hoped she and Obama could agree on solutions to improve border security.
Brewer said she wants to know how Obama's plan to deploy up to 1,200 National Guard troops to the border with Mexico will affect Arizona and what else he has in mind to tighten border security.
She said she'll make a pitch for her own proposal calling for more troops on the border, deployment of helicopters and surveillance drones and completion of a border fence.
The White House said it would lay out for Brewer the "unprecedented resources" dedicated over the past 16 months to secure the border.
Comments News Comments
Carlos, your plagerized 90/10% quasi-motivational Psycho babel is just the kind of paliative socialist sausage the Obamanite Pied Pipers want us to digest. They would have us dwell in the land of 90% Feel Good "ATTITUDE" and ignore or excuse the mayhem of the Obama reality "HAPPENING" their failed policies like immigration to mention one. It's time to get off the feel good drugs and get back to a productive reality life of doing. Americans are 90% "DO" while Mexicans are 90% feel good Siesta.
Aw, now that really puts a smile on my face. All those great, big words. Congratulations BigDum...er BigDarmy! Now. let's get you all set up with spell-check and we're on our way. 'Scuse me, time for my siesta.
Carlos, Hate is sometimes a good thing. Are we not suppose to hate evil doers, liars, prevaricators,and criminals and thieves that break into your home in the night to steal your wealth and freedom and wreak havoc on the public good and public heath care system. Had we not hated this kind of behavior in the 1940's we would all be speaking German, and many of your relatives would be turned into human lampshades. The Most basic human Civil right in American society is your right to behave civily.
Whatever works for you, but your John-Wayne view of the modern world is hopelessly misguided and outdated, hate is not necessary in order to get things done, and really, there never have been any "rights" so quit whining.
Carlos might want to read the stry again. It's the pro-illegals that are protesting, not the right. So who's squealing?
Most are not Pro illegals either but Pro Constitutional rights OF LEGAL CITIZENS. The original Arizona law that was passed opened the door to LEGAL CITIZENS HAVING THEIR RIGHT VIOLATED in an attemot to get rid of the Illegals. That is why the Original Arizona law was changed twice. Are you in favor of VIOLATING THE RIGHTS OF LEGAL CITIZENS AND THE U.S. CONSTITUTION? Arizona also has a law passed in 2008 that required all businesses to sign up for the E-Verify they do not enforce it
The Constitution also states that immigration shall be uniform. So it's a violation to let them stay. Iseriously doubt these protesters give a rats rearend about any civil right or laws save for the parts that allow them to treat our south border as if it didn't exist. The law does not allow for our rights to be violated. It specifies that law enforcementcan not act with out probable cause and can only do things within the limits of existing federal law.
That is what it says after the Arizona legislature changed it twice but NOT what the ORIGINAL LAW stated. The original law was and did violate the U.S. Constitution.
Ok, in your words, where are your facts. Fact: the Arizona law has more restrictions on law enforcement personnel than the federal law does. Fact: Arizona law required there to be a legal stop (unlike federal law), reasonable suspicion (unlike federal law), and that suspicion cannot be based on race or national origin (unlike the federal law). If you question this law, then why don't you question the federal law which can be enforced solely on the basis of race? Have you read the law?
Yes the current law does exactly what you say it does but the current Arizona law is not what was originaly passed. Read what I wrote in FACT it was changed twice to bring it in line with the U.S. Constitution. If the original was not un-constitutional they would not have made the changes that they did.
Not surprisingly, you missed my point. Squealers are squealers. If you ever manage to see our world through something besides a "liberal vs conservative" viewpoint, you may learn we are more complicated and not all of us fit that silly, simplistic mold.
My view of the world is far, far bigger than you seem to think or would want to give credit for. But since I don't agree with everything you say I must be some dumb, uneducated, misguided dolt. Since I think minorities have the same potetial to learn and succeed as whites, and should be held to the same standards and judged for who they are and not how dark their skin, I must be a bigot. I love learning about other cultures and places, acknowledge their potential, so I must be close-minded.
You contradict yourself by beating the tired old liberal vs conservative rag while talking about your expansive world view. And as for whether you are a dumb, uneducated, misguided dolt, I wouldn't presume to know, but my criteria in making that decision would not hinge upon your agreeing with me on anything.
Conservatism has a short-sighted view of the world, but liberalism seems to have a totally unrealistic one. Capitalism isn't the best solution, but it's better than the others. People have a far greater capacity for charity then government and can do it far less expensive. Who screams loudest about injustice? Those who don't want to obey the laws.
So, what you're saying is the whiners and screamers whose words grace these pages do not want to obey the law? And don't you think it's time to drop the stupid "conservative" and "liberal" tags? No one even knows what they used to mean, and I'll be darned if I can see complex humans so easily cubby-holed. Really, it just gets in the way and it certainly is meaningless.
By the way, the 1200 troops will be in desk jobs. I feel better already. They sure know how to protect America.
There's a wise old saying that goes like this: Ten percent of Life is what happens to us; ninety percent is attitude. You've got some work to do.
Your proof of what you state is where?
From MSNBC: Administration officials said the National Guard troops will work on intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance support, analysis and training, and support efforts to block drug trafficking. They will be in a support role, doing administrative work.
We Need to send the National Guard to wade into the Mobs of protesters to see how many are acutal U.S. citizens. It's time to kick the unruly guests out of the house.
It's time to send the National Guard to wade into the crowds of protesters to see how many are U.S. Citizens?? It time to throw the unruly guests out of the house!!
Doesn't matter what the President does about immigration, the squealers will continue to squeal. They hate him for meeting with the AZ governor, they hate him for not meeting with her. Hate, hate, hate. No way to solve anything.

KpopCharts Update: Don't Walk Dripping
BILASA B1A4 "Tried To Walk" – Vote for it Here!
Return of the kitty conquerors! We knew this video was out because Dr.Meemersworth set up a little white flag in his bed to let us know he was indeed conquered. He even ordered a very small EYK t-shirt that fits him perfectly…that really should have been our first guess, so I guess we discovered his bias group, it's BILASA! So I'm afraid to say too much about this video because we have competition between Boyfriend and B1A4 and we're honestly unsure of who will win, so let's just leave this video at this: this is a very pretty video with a lovely set and I got to see BILASA wondering in locations outside of a box, so that makes us happy. No comment on the ridiculous over use of turtlenecks. I'm going to have to start a new organization to keep turtlenecks from being used in music videos.
Dal Shabet "Have, Don't Have" (Don't Have Version) – Vote for it Here!
Wow, what a fantastic song! Now I know a lot of people have been comparing this to T-ara and saying that they're copying T-ara's sound, but T-ara is simply doing disco inspired music, and that sound doesn't belong to a single group. It's the same complaint that arises when any girl group besides 2NE1 tries to be punky and wear leather and studs, everyone is like, "Oh they're copying 2NE1″. It's more like they're copying old British Punk which was around WAY before 2NE1, but yes 2NE1 was really the first to tap INTO it. The same could be said about T-ara, they were pumping out mega awesome songs that channeled disco feels, but it doesn't belong to them either. Anyhoo, the point is, we love this song and yes it has a disco feel. Now they did release two versions of the video, the "Have" version being the main one and while I like that video, the "Don't Have" version is something we rarely get to see in the world of Kpop. A kpop group interacting with the outside world! A kpop group acting silly in a different way than usual! A kpop group wearing their full kpop gear but being totally ignored by their audience! It's quirky and fun, and I totally like it better than their original video. Well, check them both out and let me know which one you like better.

Okay, so I know Simon spoke about this video, but I totally wrote about it and forced him to speak it. Hahaha, I just wanted to see him talk about the fashion that he never notices or cares about. But back to the video, the costumes for the backup dancers were SO creepy and cool! That houndstooth-patterned-kinky-sofa-one-piece was so bizarre, yet I couldn't look away! It felt like something I would see in a Ga-in or Brown Eyed Girls music video. But as a whole, I liked the song and video but it didn't really grab me as much as her older stuff did. I found myself watching it and enjoying it, but I wasn't totally enraptured. Maybe I felt like it was straddling the line between artsy and a kpop video but it didn't really fit in either category so it was a bit confusing. I will say this much, we were both born in the same year and DAMN THAT GIRL LOOKS GREAT!!!!

Kpop Charts Update-
When are you going to do kpop music mondays for B1A4's Tried to Walk? Does it not have much votes? D:
I like this blog very much!!..^^..HWAITING KPOP!!
hey it´s Not Bilasa is B1A4 and the name it´s because Baro blood tipe it B and the otre 4 have blood tipe A so please dont call then Bilasa .
I agree w/ you about the fact that Dalshbet's video is quite different from lot of normal girl group videos and its enjoyable. The music is not my cup of tea though, but the video is hilarious. Its a shame that it will never win MM.
B1A4 Why you have 2 popped collars AND a turtle neck?
meemers is getting so big!
I don't know about everyone else, but I felt when Baro starting rapping out of no where and then looked very tough instead of cute and lost, I was so confused. Maybe because I haven't listened to much of B1A4, so I didn't expect cute face to shoot out a deep man voice
"Kiss and touch me, rub my bananas" LOOOOL any one saw that? :D
This page is really "nasty" hahaha -
First of all I should be studying for my exams I have tomorrow but, I couldn't pass up the chance I had to watch music monday, Second also love the new page and third first time listener of b1A4 fell in love lol ^^
Ivy was pretty big when she released A-Ha and Sonata of Temptation but then she had legal troubles with her company and was gone for a long time (she did have a comeback earlier this year). But yeah major female soloist were Ivy, Hyori, Dombi, Boa and Uhm Jung Hwa. Seems most of them have had a hiatus period. Son Dambi acted in a really long drama (Lights and Shadows) so she was keeping busy I guess…
I haven't really listened a lot to b1a4, so when the cup cake looking guy started rapping I was completely O-O
Dayum, son dam bi has huge eyes! And thanks for introducing Dalshabet, loved the song and the music video ^^-
And I mean no offence in that nickname. I love cupcakes
Hi! I want to send you fanmail, but where can I send it to? ^^
The houndstooth jumpsuits are replicas (most likely) of Jean Paul Gaultier from his Autumn/Winter collection in 1991. I saw one on display at the DeYoung Museum in San Francisco this last August (with many of his other masterpieces)! Such a perfect choice to amp up the artsyness of the video!!! Also, JPG is AWESOME! ALL THE CORSETS! HAHA!
Bilasa has totally conquered my heart <3 one of my favorites of theirs! also…I MUST get a BILASA shirt! …so that's what they look like on someone, thanks Simon for showing it off! now I'm definitely going to get one! :D
I always like Bilasa's rewievs, so I'm voting for them. Still, I'm glad Boyfriend won this week. And also "Dripping Tears" has my votes this week, I really liked this vid. The backup dancers remind me of Gaga's "Bad Romance".
Ooooh and I'm a little bit afraid, but I just HAVE to mention it: I'm wearing a turtleneck right now. RIGHT NOW! Don't hate me, Martina! *runs for cover*
Wow the charts are literally bouncing from Bilasa to Boyfriend and back! I really don't know who's gonna win if I have to choose between them I'm voting Bilasa! BTW Simon and Martina the charts are so much easier to navigate, look great and make it so much clearer about who's winning and why. Especially the mini chart update on the home page so good! Plus I think the counter adds to the already dramatic chart battles. Good work I'm going into the fray right now….
Daebak ! Baro rapped
Woo Son Dam Bi! Woo… Anyone? Hello?
But seriously folks
1) The video is crazy and bizarre
2) Son Dom Bi is incredibly attractive
3) The song is kind of catchy
4) Some nasty dancin
5) Been two years I think since her last comeback
6) Costumes/plot/sets are all over the place
7) Seriously folks, she's gorgeous.Some1 else listed this better and had more points… But anyway it's like a vid that should totally be getting more attention. Just check it out at least folks, you don't even have to vote, just join use in the weirdness.
I wish u could do a video review on both b1a4 and boyfriend! Please! I don't want to choose between them two T.T
I find myself enjoying the chart updates more than the full winner reviews :D lol. Maybe that's because it's the only way I ever get S&M to mention the songs/vids/artists I like…
I know what you mean. If you don't like the groups that the masses vote and comment for like crazy, then you're screwed. I'm not a fan of G-Dragon, but at least S&Ms KMMs for those 3 weeks were still great!
Well unfortunately I'm a Pledis fan, we never win lol.
I feel silly for having watched the 40sec of nothing at the end of your closing video…>_>
I was expecting Martina to come out towards the end and tear up some turtlenecks out of rage, but alas there was nothing. unu
I love love love the new site, guise. It's gonna take a bit of getting used to on my part, but it's so cool looking!
On to the update: My heart has been conquered by BILASA!!!!!!!!!!!1 and I very much want them to win, even if that means Martina going a bit crazy. LOL Only time will tell…. -
Okay, as a first time listener of B1A4 I am completely in LOOOOOVE with Tried to Walk. It's beautiful and emotional and I liked the video in spite of it not having a single ounce of dancing in it (Which is kind of a big deal to me, since one of the major reasons I love Kpop is the dance content.). Thanks to this song I now have another group on my list of names to memorize. ;u; It's such a long list…
HOWEVERI cannot vote for them this week. I'm still stuck on Boyfriend for now. Janus was such a stunning concept shift for them. The transition was so seamless from cutesy to mature, they took it in stride and totally owned it. Especially Minwoo, much to my surprise. For such a cute little maknae he sure has an amazing capacity for badassery. I love the new style for them and really hope to see more of it.
Alas, that's all I can say for now. I really, really want to write some reviews for both of these songs, among others, but I just don't have the brainpower right now. @u@; I've spent the past two weeks working on dance critiques for schoolwork, so I'm completely burnt out at the moment. Maybe after the semester ends I'll get back to writing essays to bore people with on here. Here's hoping.
For now, suffice it to say that both Janus and Tried to Walk are awesome. I hope Boyfriend wins this week, but I'm still rooting for B1A4 for next week. :3-
YES YES YES. Minwoo blew me away with his cute-to-HAWT awesomeness. :P
voting for B1A4 because they have a scene in the elephant graveyard.
First of all, I like your new page so much!^^
Thank you! It took us forever to make!
lolololol I literally laugh at your username status….NASTY MOD XDDDD!!!
T_T this MV make me cry!!!!!
So I really really reaaaaaally wanted c-clown to be included in the updates….OH well. I just knew that it was going to be these three. ANyway, everyone here should just check out c-clowns new song because it is awesome and the live performance is ever so cool!!!!
now back to commenting for bilasa – they must win^^^^^^ -
Somewhere Bambi's mother is crying T_T What do you mean she's dead? Are you saying deer ghosts can't cry too?
LOL Boyfriend you kiss-ups xD that's okay. I love B1A4's new video but I'm more attracted to Boyfriend's video (plus I'm a Bestfriend more than a Bana) but I will vote LIKE A MADWOMAN for BILASA next week. :)
this weeks kpop charts battle has got me on my toes, Boyfriend of B1A4?
i'm both a Bestfriend and a Bana >.<
but i've kinda got my hopes that Boyfriend would win since Janus caught my attention first, then put all my effort into voting for B1A4 next week.. any bestfriend's/bana's going through these feels? -
pretty sure i have been converted to a BANA thanks to you guys, YOU HAVE RUINED ME! :D i like the Bilasa and Son DamBi video, but i would LOVE Bilasa to win! BILASA HWAITING!
For some reason I can't think of myself as a Bana, only a Bilasaraptor…
err I mean, thanks to Simon and Martina -
there was 30 seconds of silence left at the end of the sign off video… i kept watching to see if spudgy or dr meemersworth crept in to do some evil maniacal laugh… XP
For some reason I was expecting a "JYP" to be whispered….. it seems I have jyp twitches now, thanks to Simon and martina… XDD
It's meant to be a moment of silence so that you can reflect on the evilness of turtlenecks!
yes ma'am… duly noted… henceforth, turtlenecks only on turtles… ^^
Wh-what about Park Jung Min's Beautiful?

New flights, cruise ships and cruise ventures will bring more travelers to South Florida's airports and cruise ports in 2015, officials say.

City Boss Still Hasn't Banished Memory Of Bayern
Manuel Pellegrini hailed his side's character as they recovered from a drubbing against Bayern Munich to defeat Everton.
Manuel Pellegrini: "I was very pleased for a lot of things. We played the only unbeaten team in the Premier League and a team that plays very well with the ball so it was not an easy game.
"What happened last Wednesday always has a consequence physically and mentally on the team so that's why I am very pleased with the character the team showed.
"David Silva is a very important player. He has quality, he played very, very well. I wasn't sure if he could play the 90 minutes.
"I think we played well against Aston Villa but ended up losing the game but we didn't perform up to our standards in midweek. It was important to bounce back against Everton, who are a very strong team.
"It was great to have David Silva back, too. He's a top player and any team in the world would miss him."

Dressing Up, Standing Out, Fitting In
Adorning oneself to look one's "best" has varied over time, gender, economic class, and by event. Adornments suggest one's sense of identity and one's intent to stand out or fit in.
Wired! How Electricity Came to Maine
As early as 1633, entrepreneurs along the Piscataqua River in southern Maine utilized the force of the river to power a sawmill, recognizing the potential of the area's natural power sources, but it was not until the 1890s that technology made widespread electricity a reality -- and even then, consumers had to be urged to use it.

Ted O'Dell, a former MEA employee, is sending out fundraising letters in his run for Lansing City Council. With that kind of background, you'd think he'd have plenty of lefty support. He'll get none from me.
After Ted left the MEA, he worked to get a Lansing casino approved, and then landed with DFER. Like all foggy political operations, Democrats for Education Reform has three forms: DFER itself, a political action committee; Education Reform Now, a 501(c) 3; and Education Reform Now-Advocacy, a 501(c)4. And like pretty much all such outfits, it has a misleading name.
Education Reform Now was active in last year's Chicago teacher strike. Their "board of directors is made up of executives at the hedge funds Hawkshaw Capital, Gotham Capital, SAC Capital and Maverick Capital. According to the Milwaukee Express, "this group of pro-privatizers is made up mainly of conservative Democrats who see an enhanced role for the free market in public education in the form of vouchers, charter schools and mayor-led districts."
DFER is active enough to generate a DFR Watch site. As to whether DFER is is made up of phony Democrats, the California Democratic Party passed a resolution last month that specifically criticized the "so-called democratic organization (in name only) … Democrats for Education Reform" that is "funded by corporations, Republican operatives and wealthy individuals dedicated to privatization and anti-educator initiatives, and not grassroots democrats or classroom educators."
DFER's Michigan affiliate ranks itself with StudentsFirst, the intensely anti-union Michelle Rhee group, as well as Dick and Betsy Devos's pro voucher group, the Great Lakes Education Project. DFER endorsed 5 candidates in the August primary last year and lost 4. Including Ted O'Dell.
Ted is on the DFER Michigan Board and serves as its treasurer. As well as Ted, their board is made up of at least a couple of other DINOs:
Harrison Blackmond, DFER Michigan State Director
DFER Michigan Board:
Tim Melton
Pat Shannon
Buzz Thomas
Ted O'Dell
We all remember former Michigan House Rep. Tim Melton, who quit before his term was up to join Students First. Harrison Blackmond is another former MEA employee who joined the dark side years ago. Something he leaves off his bio.
Similarly, Ted mentions none of these connections in his campaign site bio. Particularly glaring is that his "education plan" fails to mention this part of his past. He does say that when he was a township supervisor, he managed to ignore the financial well-being of his constituents:
He was elected as a Township Supervisor in Monroe County, Michigan, where he overlooked the prosperity of the community.
Perhaps he meant "oversaw."

UT creates new vice president position for communications, marketing
KNOXVILLE — The University of Tennessee will hire a vice president for communications and marketing, a new position that will report directly to system president Joe DiPietro.
The decision follows the recommendation from a task force DiPietro commissioned to examine the communications department following the July retirement of Hank Dye, who oversaw both the government relations and communications staffs.
The president is currently taking recommendations for search committee members across all campuses, and hopes to have a new vice president in place by winter, said Keith Carver, executive assistant to the president, who has facilitated the task force.
The job description is still being drafted, and a salary range will be available once the position is classified by the human resources department, Carver said.
The university will not use a search firm, but will be looking at both internal and external candidates.
The new vice president will not only handle media for the president's office and system, but also marketing and branding.
"I would also say a strategist, someone to really be thinking about the message and communicating and helping position the University of Tennessee across the state," Carver said.
More details as they develop online and in Wednesday's News Sentinel.

i had been thinking to do and image of Tenten but i'm sure that most of my customers will vote for her on the poll, so i gave Ino a chance with the RTN hairstyle, i really liked the dark magician girl since i was a kid, so this time i decided to do some art of her for Halloween
Request by comission : Rukiaruk15
Character: Sakura - Tenten - Temari "The Last Naruto The Movie"
Style: Anime
Scene : Beach.
Color Version : ???
To be honest i wasn't planning to accept this commission because it looked very difficult, plus the commissions were already closed, but i decided to try because the customer insisted and in the end he was very satisfied, the color version will take a while because now the commissions are closed.

Nov. 23 (Bloomberg) -- Washington would prevent a default on $41.8 million in debt tied to a Wenatchee arena with a 10- year loan financed by a sales-tax increase, under a proposal by Treasurer James McIntire.
Allowing the Greater Wenatchee Regional Events Center Public Facilities District to default on bond-anticipation notes due Dec. 1 would "cast a long shadow over outstanding and future financing" across the state, said McIntire, a 58-year- old Democrat. State lawmakers may introduce the proposal as soon as today, Chris McGann, his spokesman, said yesterday by telephone.
The arena district issued the notes in 2008 to fund the 4,300-seat Town Toyota Center, a regional sports and entertainment facility in Wenatchee. The city of 32,000 is about 140 miles (225 kilometers) east of Seattle. By the end of last year, the arena had lost $6.5 million since it opened in October 2008, according to a state audit.
"Unfortunately, this situation now calls for state intervention to protect other local governments and their taxpayers," McIntire said in a statement.
Without intervention, the arena district won't be able to meet the Dec. 1 deadline for repaying its debt, according to a disclosure statement filed Nov. 4.
McIntire would pay the debt from a state account that holds sales and use taxes earmarked for distribution to local governments, according to the treasurer's office. The state would recoup the money, plus interest, by withholding sales and use taxes due to Wenatchee and other municipalities in the district for 10 years.

Under the proposal, those municipalities would be allowed to raise their sales-tax rates by 0.2 percentage points without passage of a referendum, the statement said.
On Nov. 8, Standard & Poor's lowered its short-term grade for the arena district to SP-3 from SP-1, second-highest. The company also reduced the outlook for the district's sales-tax issuer rating to negative.
S&P analysts Chris Morgan and Gabriel Petek declined in a telephone interview yesterday to predict the effect of the proposed loan on the district's credit rating.
"This isn't necessarily something that improves the fundamentals of what we're talking about here," Petek said.

I can't understand how lame the media has been to only focus on Norma and not on Naomi. I am wondering has the media been so bias as to follow and ostracize her for one comment. Looking back at Naomi's forums on Youtube.com, I see Naomi constantly praising herself for going to college and the "I" is constantly said if not more than 5 times. When is she going to say "we" as a community and not "I."
Sad shame for El Paso Media.
