Durham's overtime bill tops $684g
Saturday, February 8, 2014
DURHAM — The town's overtime costs increased in 2013 for a third straight year, but local officials say it's still a cheaper alternative to hiring more employees.
Fire Chief Corey Landry said he reviews overtime figures regularly to determine if adding staff would cut costs. Each time, he said, "the numbers don't work out."
Meanwhile, the Police Department plans for $115,000 a year for overtime, according to Chief Dave Kurz.
"Maybe there is another way of handling it," she added, "But I guess we haven't found one to date."

Police kill man suspected of robbing bank in women's clothes
Seattle police fatally shot a man suspected of robbing a bank Thursday morning.
Seattle Times staff reporters
Seattle police have launched an internal investigation into Thursday's fatal shooting of a suspected bank robber by a detective.
The shooting happened around 11:45 a.m. during a confrontation that took place while police were searching for the suspect near Viretta Park near the Madison Park neighborhood.
Seattle police spokesman Mark Jamieson said a detective in the department's robbery unit spotted the suspect in the yard of a home in the 100 block of 39th Avenue East. Jamieson said the suspect was armed with a knife that he refused to drop.
The detective fired because the man "presented a threat," police said. Police did not immediately say whether the suspect lunged at police, or made some other threatening move.
He was declared dead at the scene.
The detective, who has not been publicly identified, has been placed on paid administrative leave while the shooting is investigated.
The internal police investigation will be overseen by the department's Office of Professional Accountability (OPA), according to police and OPA Director Pierce Murphy.
The robbery was reported around 9:15 a.m. at the Wells Fargo Bank in Madison Park near East Madison Street and McGilvra Boulevard East, police said. The man was reportedly wearing women's clothing, "lots of makeup" and a brunette wig, according to police.
He fled the bank in a silver Hyundai, police said.
About 15 minutes later, police were called to 39th Avenue East and East John Street where witnesses reported that a silver Hyundai had crashed and rolled over, according to police.
A man was seen running from the vehicle, dragging a rolling suitcase, police said.
Witnesses also told police the fleeing man was shedding clothes as he ran, police said.
An area search that included K-9 units and members of the SWAT team was initially unsuccessful, Jamieson said. But police remained in the area, he said.
Shortly before the shooting, a resident called police to report seeing a man in the yard, Jamieson said.
The suspect was confronted in the yard of a resident's home where he was shot, Jamieson said.

Yorkshire Pudding
A cross between a popover and a soufflé, Yorkshire pudding is made from a basic batter of eggs, milk, and flour. This recipe is brought to us by chef Anne Willan, who uses pan drippings from the beef.
- Servings: 12
Source: Martha Stewart Living Television, December 2000
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon coarse salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- 4 large eggs
- 3 to 3 1/2 cups whole milk
- 6 to 8 tablespoons drippings from roasting pan, vegetable oil, or lard
In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Make a well in the center, and add eggs and 1/4 of the milk. Using a whisk, combine eggs and milk, then incorporate flour; begin with the inner rim of the well. Continue whisking until a smooth, stiff batter forms. Stir in half of the remaining milk. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place 12 3/4-cup capacity muffin tins in oven until very hot, about 5 minutes.
Stir enough of the remaining milk into the batter until it is the consistency of heavy cream. Transfer 1 to 2 teaspoons of drippings into each muffin tin. Pour batter in the muffin tins, filling them about one-third full; the batter should sizzle in the hot drippings. Return to oven and bake until puffed, browned, and crisp, 25 to 30 minutes. Yorkshire pudding is best served fresh from the oven, but it can be kept warm in a low oven for about 15 minutes.

This recipe worked perfectly...I had a popover pan that I used...greased with pan drippings from my roast and pan heated ahead of adding the batter. High marks! Will use this recipe again.

Hi, from England!
This recipe looks great and I can't wait to make it. I think I might make it in one dish and serve it as wedges, yummy. By the way it's spelt Toad-in-the-[filtered word] and apples are a lovely edition. -
kelbel9 21 Dec, 2009
To keep them from sticking, I hope you can find a pan like I have. It's a popover pan that is nonstick and works great every time with no problems. Good luck!
MamaRocks2 1 Dec, 2009

I am English one of my fav things in the world is Yorkshire puddings. My husbands American and loves them. You can make this into a dish all on its own by adding small sausages and cooked onions, serve with gravy (its called Toad in the whole). A very cheap, fast and easy dinner.Also when you make Sheperds pie serve it in a Yorkshire pudding and that is just extra yummy. I make this for my American friends in individual portions and they all love it.

The battle between good and evil is back on Sunday morning television with Aamir Khan's latest
There was a time when Sunday mornings were dedicated to watching Ramayan and Mahabharat on television. The entire family sat together as mythological heroes and demons battled it out; in the end, it was always good that triumphed over evil.
That was almost two decades ago.
Noble intention
Cut to the present — Hindi cinema's 'Mr. Perfectionist' has set out to recapture that receptive audience. Aamir Khan's television debut is as ambitious as his movie outings. As he says in the promos of Satyameva Jayate, he intends to "ignite the fire" in society about pressing issues.
Noble intention, one would comment, given that his fellow superstars chose more straightforward entertainment formats to appear on the small screen — programmes with a mass appeal. Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan chose Kaun Banega Crorepati, while several others chose celebrity chat and game shows.
But the makers of Satyameva Jayate seem to have got tangled in a time warp as far as content and presentation are concerned. For the discerning audience that the 'idiot box' has today, the programme presents problems such as female infanticide, dowry harassment and child abuse (the three issues addressed till the episode aired on May 20) as old wine in a new bottle.
Following an educational format, the only new thing here is perhaps that an A-list star is the 'educator'.
Satyameva Jayate, with a title as contrived as that, is an aspiring tear-jerker. The victims who are ready to share their tragic tales on national television successfully set streams rolling down the cheeks of members of the audience.
One must admit that the case studies are fairly well-researched. But, one also wonders why it took an Aamir Khan to enlighten the public about the cases, given that they are aired on news channels all the time.
Makings of a blockbuster
The programme is also reminiscent of the series of 'TV adalats', such as Aap ki kachehri (with Kiran Bedi) and Aamna saamna.
Satyameva Jayate seems to have its heart in the right place, though. It strikes the right chord in some aspects. For instance, the show talks to the audience in a language they adore — filmy.
Catchy songs, occasional celebrity appearances, pre and post-episode buzz (after the first episode on female infanticide, Khan met the Rajasthan Chief Minister urging him to look into the matter) — there are all the ingredients necessary for a blockbuster.
The show has opened to mixed reviews but good TRPs. Obviously, stars still sell, and they can sell anything.
It did take a Hindi film personality after all to evoke the conscience of people towards deep seated problems. However, it remains to be seen whether good will win over evil this time around.
Keywords: Satyameva Jayate, Aamir Khan, Indian society

What a bummer!
Comment on this storyDenver - A woman who punched, scratched and slid her buttocks against a $30-million painting by abstract expressionist Clyfford Still at a Denver museum has been sentenced to two years of probation, and will have to undergo mental health treatment, prosecutors said on Thursday.
Carmen Tisch, 37, pleaded guilty earlier this month to felony criminal mischief for striking at and leaning against the oil-on-canvas painting "1957-J No. 2" at the Clyfford Still Museum last year, the Denver District Attorney's Office said.
After causing an estimated $10 000 worth of damage to the painting, an intoxicated Tisch then pulled down her pants, slid her buttocks against the painting and urinated on the museum floor, prosecutors said.
A judge sentenced Tisch to two years probation and she must also undergo mental health treatment and receive help for alcohol dependency as a condition of her sentence. She may still face a restitution hearing.
The North Dakota-born Still was considered one of the most influential post-World War 2 American abstract expressionist artists, but he was not as famous as contemporaries such as Jackson Pollock.
Still died in 1980, and Denver officials worked for decades with his widow, Patricia, to secure a single-artist museum featuring his works. When she died in 2005, she bequeathed her husband's collection to the city.
Four of his works were auctioned by Sotheby's for $114-million to endow the museum, which opened in late 2011. - Reuters

NAGPUR: Saturday turned out to be memorable for two senior officials of Nagpur Municipal Corporation. Health officer (sanitation) Dr Milind Ganvir was appointed as officiating deputy director for health and education officer (middle school) Ashok Talatulle as officiating education officer.
Dr Ganvir has been fighting for his stake on the post citing the provisions in the City of Nagpur Corporation Act for the last four years. He claimed that as per the Act, the health officer is supposed to be the highest post in health department.
He has been working as health officer since 1999 but given charge for only sanitation part. There is another post of health officer for hospital part. The post of deputy director for health is head of both sanitation and hospital.
After Dr Rajan Pradhan took voluntary retirement a few months ago, health officer (hospital) Dr Savita Meshram was given the charge. On Saturday, Dr Ganvir was given the charge and became the fifth officer to hold the post.
NMC has to appoint an education officer by promoting any officer of the department itself before November 21, as per High Court directives. The departmental promotion committee had recommended Talatulle's name last month. Accordingly, he was given charge.
Octroi evasion case registered
The octroi department of NMC has unearthed a case of octroi evasion. Assistant commissioner (octroi) Milind Meshram told TOI, the truck of Ashok Roadways was transporting goods packed in 203 boxes.
The octroi cess was paid on just 143 boxes thus evading the remaining octroi cess. All 60 boxes on which the cess was not paid comprise hardware materials and goods.

There's so much riding on Link this time - quite literally, on occasions when he transforms into a wolf - that new screens can only make us want it more. And it's fair to say that the shots Nintendo has released (available by clicking the Images tab) make us want it very much indeed.
There are familiar elements: fishing, sprawling fields to cross on horseback. There are elements we've had time to get used to: Link's alternate wolfen form, or the insidious ink-curls of the Twilight Realm. And then there's more.

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 Amber!
Facts about Amber
- Breed: Doberman Pinscher
- Color: Brown/Chocolate - With Tan
- Age: Young
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Female
Amber's Info...
I am already spayed, purebred, in need of an experienced adopter, up to date with shots, good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Amber - Red female, 1.5-2 years estimated. Natural ears. Alert and inquisitive girl. She appears to be a little younger than Pepper, so it is unlikely that they are littermates, but it could be possible. Amber was confiscated by Animal control along with Pepper. Amber is also very skinny and in good health. She seems to only have been neglected and not abused. Amber arrived a little less cautious and is more open and lively, and has improved drastically since coming to Aztec. Adoption $300
Other Pets at Aztec Doberman Rescue/Aztec Doberman Pinscher Club of San Diego
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Amber, a Santee Doberman Pinscher dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Doberman Pinscher for sale in Santee, or seeking a Doberman Pinscher dog from a breeder in Santee.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Santee 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 Santee 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 Doberman Pinscher breeders who help with Doberman Pinscher rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Santee paves the way for another one to be saved.

Weather as a Headache and Migraine Trigger
In this article
Since ancient times, headache has plagued people of all ranks all over the world. For instance, Napoleon's terrible tirades may have been driven by his unbearable headache pain. And still the pain goes on. Today, migraines and other types of headaches affect as many as four out of every five Americans.
Weather and Other Migraine Triggers
In a recent survey by the National Headache Foundation, headache sufferers were given a list of 16 possible triggers. They then were asked to rank them in terms of what commonly brought on their migraines and other headaches. Three out of every four respondents said that weather triggered their headache pain. Specific weather triggers include:
- Changes in humidity
- Changes in temperature
- Storms
- Extremely dry conditions
- Dusty environments
Listed below are common environmental triggers for headaches included in the survey and the percentage of people who identified them as triggers. People often have more than one type of trigger for their headaches. How many, if any, of these factors trigger your headaches?
- Weather or barometric pressure changes: 73%
- Intense odors: 64%
- Bright or flickering lights: 59%
- Smoke: 53%
- Extreme heat or cold: 38%
- Altitude changes: 31%
- High winds: 18%
Most of the participants reported that these environmental triggers have kept them from participating in their normal outdoor activities. They also said they'd stayed away from places likely to have smoke in the air, such as restaurants or bars.
Why Weather Triggers Headaches and Migraines
Headache specialists are still unraveling the mysteries of migraines and other headaches. Most believe a combination of factors is at play. Those factors range from genetics to neurovascular imbalances in the brain.
But what role could weather play? One leading evolutionary theory is that getting a headache is a protective mechanism against adverse environmental stressors. The theory goes that headache pain would cause someone to seek a safer, more hospitable environment. The fact that changes in weather and extremes in heat and cold cause headache, some experts believe, gives credence to this theory.
These experts also believe that people who get frequent headaches have a greater sensitivity to changes in the environment. They also have a lower threshold to the pain response. The reason for these things, the experts say, may be that people with migraines have likely inherited this sensitivity.
The survey cited earlier also found that two out of three headache sufferers had not discussed environmental triggers with their doctors. Nearly half of them, though, had been plagued by headaches for more than 20 years.

Dip stick tube stuck in block need advice
I was replacing a starter in my oldsmobile and I had to remove the exhaust manifold to get to it and when I let the pipe down it bent/broke off the tube and now I'm having a hell of a time trying to get it out. Anyone have any bright ideas?
This is TacomaWorld. We don't really do "bright" ideas here :D
Since this is in the fishing section, I would suggest using some 100 mono and a treble w/ swivel snap to fish that bitch out.
Actually this is boating and fishing.
Update: drove a screw into the tube and yanked her out. Project complete |

Does anyone know how to really tell if a chandelier is cut glass or real crystal?
The house we have now had one hanging in the dining room and we took it down and replaced it with another type lamp that fit our style instead. I boxed up all the parts..that was 15 years ago...this house was build 1960 and is considered a Mid-Century Modern. The original knobs, etc from when it was built were still all here. We will be moving to another area, one that's less dusty and I may want to keep the Chandelier for the next house. I'd like to know if there is a way to tell if it's worth saving though.. Thanks for any help!

If by "real crystal" you mean cut quartz rock, as in gem stone, it would be very VERY unlikely that you or anyone even the Russian Tzars would have a chandeliere with cut gem stones as prisms. Crystal is cut glass....or not!...Crystal may be blown and not cut....crystal may be pressed glass. The term "crystal" usually denotes glass with a high lead content....and I have never seen nor heard of glass being cut that is not of a high lead content. However I have seen inexpensive chandelieres with prizms that are molded and not cut. If the chandeliere was original to the house you are leaving, I would leave it with the house. Linda C |

Thanks but no, I didn't mean quartz rock...I realize that isn't used...I guess I should have stated lead crystal or glass. We are in the desert and I've never seen a chandelier in anyone's house here..it's too dusty and dirty and why we took it down. |
They make something called "Chandeliere cleaner"....you simply spray it on the chandeliere, put newspapers underneath to catch the drips and presto! a clean chandeliere. I have seen more than a few crystal chandelieres in the Phoenix area. |
Here is a link that might be useful: cleaner
Try blowing it with hairdryer if the dust is not too attached or use a solution of water and white vinegar |

If it were original to the house, it likely has little to no antique value and you could find styles nearly identical in stores today. Is the issue that it may be a valuable piece because the prisms are crystal, as opposed to glass? IOW, you'd only save it if they were real crystal? Look at the other materials in this fixture to determine if it's a fine, arty piece worth keeping or not. I got a crystal hurricane lamp a few years ago at the supermarket for eight dollars, so crystal itself doesn't necessary imply quality, just glass with lead in it. On the other hand, I bought a chandelier at a hardware store with plain old glass prisms on it and I paid a small fortune for it even at half price. See what I mean? BTW, regarding that chandelier from the hardware store.........I hung it in my kitchen at my farm house and filthy it got from horse dust and gas grease! The easiest way I found to clean the scads of prisms was to just unhook them and run them though my dishwasher. LOL. |

Most likely, it's vintage, but not antique. Most chandelier crystals are merely glass, molded. Also, if the arms are molded, with noticeable seams, it's modern. Check out a few lighting sites, and see if there is a chandelier similar to yours. If so, you should be able to base your decision on that. |

Hikers Trapped In Dense Rhododendron Forest
It took five hours to rescue the couple from the Irish mountainside. One of the rescuers to the BBC it was "like an impenetrable jungle."

Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne with news of a rhododendron rescue. Who knew a shrub known for its brilliantly colored blooms could be life-threatening? But a couple hiking in Ireland's Knockmealdown Mountains was trapped when they got lost on a hillside so thick with wild rhododendrons, one rescuer told the BBC it was as impenetrable as a jungle - so dense that people could not hear each other, which is why it took five hours to rescue them. It's MORNING EDITION.

I'll do this in polished nickel for our master bath and choose an accompanying tub deck filler for our tub. Do any of you have experience with either of these models from Rohl? Or, care to share which you like better for our room? Thanks! |

They are pretty similar - what handles or levers are you planning to use? |
- Posted by threeapples (My Page) on Mon, Apr 15, 13 at 12:31
I like the cross handles, but my husband thinks the levers will make more sense as we age |
I agree - the cross handles could become a problem. The levers come in Swarovski crystal, metal and porcelain. This decision might have more impact then the two different style. I think I would make the lever (material) or handle decision in conjunction with the style. |

College 101: Be Prepared to Get Sick
Hi girls!
Even if you eat an apple a day and drink more than the prescribed eight glasses of water a day, you are going to get sick at least once in college. Instead of wearing a surgical mask every time you head outside, make sure to keep these items on hand so you can make a speedy recovery from a cold, the flu, or any other ailment that might befall you!

Pervez Hoodbhoy, a nuclear physicist and teacher, has seen just about everything.
That's when he first tackled the so-called "Islamic Science" propagated by Zia who was trying to Islamize all institutions in Pakistan. "They [Zia's regime] were doing bizarre things like changing how chemistry was taught," Hoodbhoy said. "Instead of saying hydrogen and oxygen make water, you had to say when they are brought together then by the will of Allah they become water. Things like people having the temperature of hell and the speed with which hell was receding from heaven, receiving energy from Djinns and catching them to take their energy," he explained.
All of this was propagated in schools and universities by people with science PhDs because it was the key to their success and promotions, Hoodbhoy says. "The more bizarre and outrageous and the more you flaunted your Islamic credentials the higher you rose."
The absurdity reached a peak in those years when Hoodbhoy debated nuclear engineer Bashiruddin Mahmood, a top director of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission, in newspaper columns and at various forums on the feasibility of trapping Djinns for energy. (Mahmood, according to Foreign Policy magazine, later admitted he met with Osama bin Laden in 2000-2001 to discuss how Al Qaeda could build a nuclear device. He is still under house arrest.)
For anyone who knows Hoodbhoy, the result of the debates in the late 1980s was predictable. "I called him [Mahmood] a lunatic," said Hoodbhoy. "Nobody else was doing it."
Hoodbhoy then set out to undo the damage Zia had done by writing a book, "Islam and Science, Religious Orthodoxy and the Battle for Rationality," and producing two award winning television series on science, for which he won in 2003 the United Nations' coveted Kalinga Prize for the Popularization of Science whose past winners include Bertrand Russell, David Attenborough and Margaret Mead.
But his victory over Zia's Islamic Science wasn't Hoodbhoy's last fight.
Hoodbhoy suffered what he calls the second-worst period of his life when Benazir Bhutto — his old enemy from high school, as he calls her — came to power for the second time in 1993.
Hoodbhoy says he discovered in 1996 that Bhutto was trying to steal chunks of university land for herself by offering parcels for below market value to the university board, faculty, administrative staff and university workers. He talked openly about the immorality of this plan and made enemies of the university's faculty and administration staff who stood to gain some land of their own.

First day of winter quarter
The University is back in session today, which means a couple of things.
First, returning players are back in town. A few were on my flight home from yesterday's women's basketball game at UCLA. Apparently the Ducks have a team meeting today, and then begin their offseason conditioning with the strength and conditioning coaches tomorrow.
Also, there may be some additions to the roster. The Ducks signed three junior college defensive linemen last month, and a couple of them could start classes this week. I'll try to verify today and over the course of the week.
As far as the coaches, they can be back out on the road recruiting as of today. FootballScoop.com says a replacement for receivers coach Robin Pflugrad "is already in place;" that's news to me. That site is all over the place with its rumors, but given that Eddy Morrissey is in the picture, that could be what they're implying.
