A cute toy and a great price. Time will tell if it lasts, but a week into playing with it (including throwing it around, chewing on it, etc...) and still holding. The tunes are at a nice pitch and volume so it's not annoying to the adults in the room.
Product was just as described. My nephew loved it!
Did not know what to buy for two small children as mine is grown. These are darling!
I bought this for my unborn baby, received it in just a few days and so far it works as it's advertised.
Purchased for my grandson. Love the musical choices. It's a perfect size for an 8 month old.
I bought this for my year old grandson. He just loves it! He carries it around, dancing and smiling. I wish every toy he has made him this happy! It's also very sturdy and well made.
I bought this for my 7 m.o. nephew and he was immediately taken with the music and the lights. There are 6 or 7 classical tunes and not as annoying as I feared.
This baby's toy was much appreciated by the mother-to-be. It played melodies with a clear sound and was cute. It was a small size to help little fingers play with it.
I am so pleased with this little toy for my grand daughter! The music is delightful, the colors bright and cheerful and easily held by little hands!
This is a great toy! Most people buy it for their kids or grand children but I bought it for my bird. I have an African grey parrot and she loves it! Especially the music and the bright colors that light up! I would highly recommend this!

A federal judge will hear a dispute this week between Cleveland Hopkins Airport and cab companies wanting to serve airport customers. ideastream's Tasha Flournoy reporting.
Last week, Federal Judge Peter Economus agreed to let the case proceed, saying Cleveland officials may not have given four cab companies an adequate opportunity to win an airport contract, excluding them from the bidding process.
City Law Director Robert Triozzi says the ruling was based on inaccuracies. He says the bidding process is consistent for all city contracts: The city holds open meetings on contract requirements then ask for bid proposals.
TRIOZZI: They chose ultimately not to submit a bid. Only afterwards did they decided that a challenge in a court of law was a better route than actually competing for the bid in the first place.
Right now, three companies-Ace, Americab, and Yellow Cab-have exclusive contracts to make pick-ups at the airport, prompting the four other companies to file a law suit. The city and cab companies will meet in court tomorrow.

Happy Birthday, Eric Clapton!!!
Sunday, March 30, 2014
Happy Birthday to Eric Clapton, who turns 69 today (March 30th, 1945)!!! Since his mid-'60s stint in the Yardbirds, through John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Cream, Blind Faith, Derek and the Dominos, and his solo career, Clapton -- who was affectionately dubbed "Slowhand" by his fans -- has come to personify the best in blues-rock guitar. Clapton holds the unique distinction for being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame three times -- for his work in Yardbirds, Cream, and for his work on his own.
Last March, Clapton released Old Sock -- his 21st studio album and his first since 2010. The disc features two new original songs, "Every Little Thing" and "Gotta Get Over," in addition to covers of some of the legendary guitarist's favorite songs from throughout his life. The disc includes tunes by Leadbelly, J.J. Cale, Peter Tosh, George Gershwin, Gary Moore, and others, while featuring guest appearances from Chaka Khan, Steve Winwood, Paul McCartney and more. Old Sock peaked at Number Seven on the Billboard 200 album chart.
One of the downsides to having such a long and influential career is that Clapton's current work is always measured against his past successes. He admits that he's easily insulted when people tell him that they prefer his earlier work: "People have said to me, 'Your best work was with Cream.' And I think, 'Oh, well, I know you think you're paying me a huge compliment, but in actual fact, it's kind of, y'know, it's a little bit upsetting that you don't care about what I'm doing now.'" 's book: When I'm 70, I'll stop. I won't stop playing or doing one-offs, but I'll stop touring, I think."

Curry Parham hit the game-winning shot with 6 seconds left to cap a thrilling fourth quarter comeback for the St. Joseph boys basketball team on Wednesday night. The Knights overcame an 11 point deficit with 4:30 to play to win at cross-the-street rival and previously undefeated Righetti 64-62 in front of a packed gymnasium.
The Warriors fell to 8-1 in league and 12-10 overall. The Knights stayed alive in the Pac 7 League title hunt by improving to 6-2 in league and 16-6 for the season.
Marcus McMorris hit a layup to put the Warriors ahead 57-46 with 4:28 to play, but Case Bruton led the Knights back into the game. Bruton, a senior guard, hit a 3 pointer and then hit two free throws to tie the game with less than a minute to play. After the Warriors could not score on their end of the court, the Knights turned to Parham, a junior, to hit the game winner along the baseline a few feet away from the basket. The Warriors had one last shot, but a three-point attempt at the buzzer was no good.
Bruton led the Knights with 24 points. Parham finished with 11 points.
Righetti sophomore Cam Walker led the Warriors with 24.
The Warriors have Friday off before returning to action next week. The Knights play at Pioneer Valley Friday night.

One of the best choices for a person who has oily skin is an oil free moisturizer. The last thing that a person would really want to have is a moist skin because it causes breakouts while also making the pores clogged. However, every person would still require a good moisturizer which will exceed the expectations of the user.
– Brands of Oil Free Moisturizers:
The number of reputable brands which you can choose from is overwhelming and it can even be more challenging when you are looking for an oil free moisturizer. All the brands of the oil free moisturizers that are available out there claim to be the best, so how will you choose the best oil free moisturizer?
It helps to know that the most expensive skin moisturizer is not always the best one for your use. There are certain instances where a skin care product becomes expensive because it has been endorsed by high ranking people and celebrities. You don't have to pay too much for a skin care product just because it has been promoted by someone who enjoys celebrity status. It's imperative to know that the celebrity was paid to make a statement endorsing the moisturizing product and not doing so because the product stands out as the best among many.
To get the best oil free moisturizer, it doesn't hurt to do a little research. By checking online, you will discover that there is a lot of information that can help you make a good choice. You should not just consider looking at the names of big brands. There are excellent products that have been rolled out by less known skin care manufacturers and which deliver wonderful results. A reputable manufacturer of oil free moisturizers needs not to spend huge budgets on marketing and publicity because the results that people get by using the product sells it.
The ingredients of the skin care product should aid you when you are making your selection. Make sure that the key ingredients are natural, oil free and have high moisturizing power. The available ingredients should help to keep the skin soothed and moist while doing a perfect job of keeping away certain radicals as well.
One of the key ingredients to check when looking for an oil free moisturizer is Olivem 800. This is one of the ingredients that make sure that the skin remains hydrated from the inside. Maracuja is also another fantastic natural ingredient which is found in most oil free moisturizers. It's derived from a fruit and helps in keeping the skin soft and nourished longer. The ingredients count for much when you are looking for a product to moisturize your skin. Make sure you shy away from products which contain oil in them. A natural product will always give you a beautiful, moist and healthy skin which you desire to have greatly. These days, you can get a real good oil free moisturizer from the many that are available if you take into account the above factors.

There is a bad leak from my power steering but I can't see where it is coming from other than to confirm that the fluid seems to be leaking onto the serpentine belt rather than down behind the pulley. On removing the pump I noticed that the high pressure pipe is held in place with an 18mm gland nut and a 10mm bolt through a mounting bracket. However, on removing the mounting bracket a noticed that the metal high pressure pipe can be rotated very easily without slackening the 18mm gland nut. The nut cannot be tightened any further. I was wondering if this is normal or is there any form of seal that may have gone?
Any advice appreciated.

(AP) -- President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney sparred aggressively over taxes, deficits and jobs Wednesday in their first debate of the presidential campaign. A look at what they said:
Obama: "Gov. Romney and I do share a deep interest in encouraging small-business growth. So at the same time that my tax plan has already lowered taxes for 98 percent of families, I also lowered taxes for small businesses 18 times. And what I want to do is continue the tax rates, the tax cuts that we put into place for small businesses and families. But I have said that for incomes over $250,000 a year, that we should go back to the rates that we had when Bill Clinton was president, when we created 23 million new jobs, went from deficit to surplus, and created a whole lot of millionaires to boot."
Romney: "I want to bring the rates down, at the same time lower deductions and exemptions and credits and so forth, so we keep getting the revenue we need. And you'd think, well, then why lower the rates? And the reason is because small business pays that individual rate; 54 percent of America's workers work in businesses that are taxed not at the corporate tax rate, but at the individual tax rate. And if we lower that rate, they will be able to hire more people. For me, this is about jobs. This is about getting jobs for the American people."
Obama: "I think we've got to invest in education and training. I think it's important for us to develop new sources of energy here in America, that we change our tax code to make sure that we're helping small businesses and companies that are investing here in the United States, that we take some of the money that we're saving as we wind down two wars to rebuild America and that we reduce our deficit in a balanced way that allows us to make these critical investments."
Romney: "First of all, I will eliminate all programs by this test, if they don't pass it: Is the program so critical it's worth borrowing money from China to pay for it? And if not, I'll get rid of it. ... No. 2, I'll take programs that are currently good programs but I think could be run more efficiently at the state level and send them to the state. No. 3, I'll make government more efficient and to cut back the number of employees, combine some agencies and departments."
Obama: "I don't think vouchers are the right way to go. And this is not my own—only my opinion. AARP thinks that the savings that we obtained from Medicare bolster the system, lengthen the Medicare trust fund by eight years. Benefits were not affected at all. And ironically, if you repeal 'Obamacare'—and I have become fond of this term, Obamacare—if you repeal it, what happens is those seniors right away are going to be paying $600 more in prescription care. They're now going to have to be paying co-pays for basic checkups that can keep them healthier."
Romney: "What I support is no change for current retirees and near-retirees to Medicare. And the president supports taking $716 billion out of that program. ... For people coming along that are young, what I do to make sure that we can keep Medicare in place for them is to allow them either to choose the current Medicare program or a private plan. Their choice."

Former youth camp leader sentenced to six years in prison for transportation of child pornography
July 14, 2011 |
TRENTON, N.J. – A Toms River, N.J., man who ran a private military academy for youths was sentenced today to 72 months in prison for transportation of child pornography over the Internet, U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced.
Steven T. Baryla, 29, previously pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Joel A. Pisano to one count of an Indictment charging him with transportation of child pornography. Judge Pisano also imposed the sentence today in Trenton federal court.
According to documents filed in this case and statements made in court:
Baryla admitted that in June 2009, he possessed images of child pornography and shared them over the Internet. At that time, Baryla served as the president of the Cedar Bridge Military Academy in Toms River, which was a private non-profit organization serving youths interested in military-style training. Baryla acknowledged that among the images of child pornography were depictions of prepubescent minors and portrayals of sadistic conduct or other depictions of violence to children.
As part of his guilty plea, Baryla agreed to forfeit computers and external hard drives which he used to commit the offense.
In addition to the prison term, Judge Pisano sentenced Baryla to five years of supervised release. Baryla is also required to register as a sex offender.
U.S. Attorney Fishman credited special agents of the FBI Newark Division's Cyber Crime Task Force, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Michael B. Ward; the Beachwood Police Department, under the direction of Chief William Cairns; and the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office, under the direction of Prosecutor Marlene Lynch Ford, with the investigation leading to today's sentence.
The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jennifer Davenport of the U.S. Attorney's Office Criminal Division in Trenton.
Defense counsel: Stephen L. Willis Esq., Toms River, N.J.

Commander's Palace, New Orleans, Louisiana
Garden District
New Orleans , Louisiana
Tel: 504 899 8221
Concierge.com's insider take:
If you doubt the concept of "elegant excess," book a long weekday lunch at Commander's, in the relaxed Garden District. The legendary flagship of the Brennan's restaurant dynasty hosts the local ladies who lunch as they celebrate their birthdays with a flood of 25-cent martinis (one of the best hidden lunch specials in town). The ambience of the new main dining room has shifted from restrained and clubby to playfully extravagant, with life-size feathered songbird dolls peeping out from the avian-themed wallpaper. The second-story Garden Room looks out onto the iconic oak-shaded courtyard. In both rooms, the efficient, brigade-style service never disappoints. Chef Tory McPhail, working the kitchen that launched Paul Prudhomme and Emeril Lagasse, artfully blends varied local influences in dishes like pan-seared Gulf fish with Louisiana citrus; crawfish and grits perfumed with cognac; and an earthy seared duck breast with Cajun dirty rice and roasted tomatoes. Eternal Commander's classics such as rich seafood gumbo, sherry-spiked turtle soup, and ethereal bread pudding soufflé provide a comforting sense of continuity.
Open Mondays through Fridays 11:30 am to 2 pm and 6:30 to 10 pm, Saturdays 11:30 am to 1 pm and 6:30 to 10 pm, and Sundays 10:30 am to 1:30 pm and 6:30 to 10 pm.

This class will be open to anyone interested in sharing an hour talking about photography. We will talk about the changes in the photography world influenced by the abundance of technology and access to images.
The main portion of the talk will be about…what inspires us…why do we want to make photos…what makes a good photo. We will also talk about the basics…f/stops and shutter speeds and most important LIGHT! Whether you use film or digital, the basic functions of the camera are the same. The hour will be interactive and fun focused on photography. Hopefully the participants will be inspired to explore the beautiful light of summer time with their cameras.
Rosemary DeLucco-Alpert and Sisters in Cloth
Guilford Free Library
July 1- 31, 2011
A group of Shoreline fiber artists known as Sisters in Cloth has collaborated with Guilford photographer, Rosemary DeLucco-Alpert, to create the exhibit Double Take: Photo & Fiber. The exhibit, fresh from its Spring installation at Yale's Haskins Laboratory, will be on display at the Guilford Free Library, 67 Park Street, from July 1-July 30, 2011
Double Take is a unique concept, consisting of 15 photographs and 15 art quilts. DeLucco-Alpert's photographs of flowers have long been a favorite of Shoreline art collectors, and served as inspiration for the fiber artists. Each artist chose a photograph and created two pieces of fiber art as a response. Some focused on the colors and textures of the photos, while others captured the mood and essence of the flowers.
The final exhibit is an abundance of color, texture, unique patterns, and a "garden of inspiration".
The public is invited to meet the artists at a reception being held at the Guilford Free Library on
Thursday, July 7, 2011 from 5:30-7:30.
The exhibit may be viewed during library hours.
Thursday, March 3, 2011, 5-7pm at
The Gallery@Haskins
300 George Street, Suite 900
New Haven, CT
This is the collaboration we have been working on for the past year. Over the past few months I have shared some of the work in progress photos. It is amazing to see how the photographs are interpreted through another artistic medium. I hope you will have a chance to stop by and enjoy the collaboration. The show will be on exhibition until June 2011. The gallery hours are W-F 10-4pm.

ABC News' Elizabeth Stuart (@elizabethstuart) and Lauren Effron (@leffron831) report:
The father of JonBenet Ramsey, the 6-year-old beauty pageant queen who was found dead in 1996 and whose killing has never been solved, told "Nightline" he believes his daughter's killer is still at large but that the trail has gone cold.
"He's either alive, dead or in prison, and one of those three," John Ramsey told ABC News' Juju Chang.
Since longtime police detective Lou Smit, who first investigated and then supported the Ramseys, died in 2010, Ramsey thinks authorities are out of clues in solving her case.
"It's pretty dead, I'm afraid," Ramsey said.
It's been 16 years since JonBenet was found dead in the basement of her family's Boulder, Colo., home the day after Christmas. That morning, the Ramsey family found a horrifying ransom note, threatening to kill JonBenet if they didn't pay $118,000. That was the exact amount Ramsey had recently received as a bonus, leading him to believe his daughter's killing was an inside job on some level.
Ramsey, the well-to-do executive, was the one who made the shocking discovery of JonBenet's body.
"When I found her it was a rush of relief," he said. "And then of course within moments, I realized that she probably was dead. But she was back in my arms."
PHOTOS: JonBenet Ramsey: Never-Before-Seen Pictures
For years, Boulder police suspected the Ramseys killed their daughter. In 2008, Boulder District Attorney Mary Lacy cleared the Ramseys of any wrongdoing and issued a letter of apology them. JonBenet's mother Patsy Ramsey died of ovarian cancer on June 24, 2006, without knowing her name had been cleared.
One of the only developments in the case, which eventually became a dead-end, was when suspect and school teacher John Mark Karr was arrested in Bangkok, Thailand, in August 2006. At the time, Karr told reporters that he was "with JonBenet when she died" but that "her death was an accident."
"He was arrested, and we were, I guess, hopeful, but not — we were a little skeptical," Ramsey recalled. "What I realized was that this is going to be difficult. He didn't look like a killer. He looked like a nice guy. He was a teacher in an elementary school. I thought, 'Boy, that's not what I would have expected.' I expected a monster."
Karr was jailed briefly, but Boulder prosecutors soon abandoned their case against him when DNA tests failed to link Karr to DNA found in JonBenet's underwear, disproving his claim.
In his newly released book, "The Other Side of Suffering," John Ramsey talks about his incredible journey from grief to hope. He recounts how deeply his faith helped him navigate course from suffering to forgiveness.
"I don't know for sure what happened, and I don't want to know, really," John Ramsey said.
Editor's note: The original version of this story incorrectly stated that the Boulder police had cleared the Ramseys of any wrongdoing and issued an apology to them in 2008. It was Boulder District Attorney Mary Lacy who wrote a letter of apology to the Ramseys, clearing them of any wrongdoing, in 2008. The Boulder police did conclude that the DNA evidence found on JonBenet Ramsey's clothing did not match members of the Ramsey family.

Rich hues, unique vases, and unexpected elements are just a few of the hot trends in fall wedding flowers.
Photo: Pen Carlson Photography
Choosing flowers for spring and summer weddings is a no-brainer: There are tons of varieties in season, and any sweet pastel or bright and sunny color scheme feels appropriate. But if you want wedding flowers that reflect the fall season in a chic and intriguing way, it's a little more challenging. We've quizzed some of our favorite florists and event designers on the latest trends in fall flowers. The good news: Your options in the fall are as gorgeous and stylish as ever.
The hottest trend in fall wedding flowers is lush, richly hued arrangements with lots of interesting texture. Instead of using just two or three types of blooms in your centerpieces, try a wide mix of flowers coordinated with your color scheme. For example, you could start with a base of classic flowers and mix in feathery crocosmia and velvety coxcomb. Or you could add non-floral accents such as viburnum or hypericum berries, lotus pods, fiddlehead ferns, or wooly lamb's ear leaves to make the arrangements more remarkable. For a distinctly fall touch, poppies with dark centers add visual depth and a dramatic element that announces that summer is over.
Search for flowers by color with our ultimate wedding flower guide.
Although texture is key, classic flowers still rule for fall weddings. Tailor them to the time of year by choosing more deep and dramatic shades than you would in the summer -- opt for classic autumn hues or go with more unexpected colors like aubergine, copper, and forest green. Lush, elegant dahlias may be the quintessential fall blossom since they come in all the autumnal tones (red, burgundy, orange, and plum). Of course, roses will always be popular and are available in any hue you need for your fall color scheme. Also hot for fall weddings: antique hydrangeas in greens and purples, and deep crimson calla lilies.
Loosely tied bouquets that look like they were just gathered from an English garden are a natural choice for many brides during the spring and summer, but for fall weddings, bouquets can be more structured. Think densely packed, dome-shaped bouquets in a color scheme such as red, brick, and plum. Instead of leaving stems exposed, trend-conscious florists wrap them in textured fabric, velvet sashes, or ribbons. The groomsmen boutonnieres can be similarly polished -- instead of a bare stem, choose boutonnieres wrapped in satin or grosgrain ribbon for your wedding party.
Succulents are a hugely popular landscaping trend right now, and stylish brides are working them into their centerpieces too. They're seasonless but come in deep, fall-appropriate hues like aubergine, cactus green, and pomegranate. Since their leaves look like petals, succulents mix easily with flowers, and they're a natural choice for weddings in the Southwest.
For centerpieces, unique containers are de rigueur. Classic glass vases may feel right in summer, but for fall, style-conscious couples are using everything from eye-catching copper pots to silver trophy cups and gold-leaf vases, or going earthy with containers made of wood or covered in lichen. Mismatched antique urns or pots from the flea market are also popular. Use a collection of pots in different sizes -- as many as five per table -- that your guests can take home at the end of the evening. If you decide on glass vases, you can add a distinctly fall feel by using wheat berries or millet as a base for the flowers.
Eco-conscious couples and their florists are focusing on using locally grown organic flowers. One eco friendly wedding tip for your flowers: Stick to flowers grown near the wedding site, which lessens your environmental impact, rather than flying flowers in from another continent. Organically grown blooms spare the earth (and your guests) from exposure to potentially harmful chemicals. It's also a great way to support nearby nurseries and celebrate the local region.

Why US efforts to help Cuba's entrepreneurs may backfire.
Photo caption: A Cuban shoemaker in Havana in 2008. Washington has set aside $3 million in development funding to help Cuba's emerging entrepreneurs, but the effort may backfire. (Getty Images)
HAVANA, Cuba — Clues to this country's economic future are visible all around Havana, hanging outside homes and garages on little hand-painted placards that read "Mattress Repair," "I Fix Stoves" or, simply, "Cake."
The signs belong to Cuba's self-employed entrepreneurs, an incipient business class that the United States would like to help, viewing its members as agents of change on the communist-run island. With the Obama administration shifting U.S. strategy away from a confrontational approach to Cuba in favor of greater engagement, Washington has set aside $3 million in development funding to help Cuba's emerging entrepreneurs and other "civil society" groups.
The money will nurture grassroots economic development on the island, particularly among those "focused on promoting self-employment and entrepreneurial initiatives," according to guidelines released by the U.S. Agency for International Development, or USAID, last month.
But some of the same Cubans who have spent years advocating for more market-style reforms say they have a better suggestion for what to do with the $3 million: leave it in Washington.
"It's a misguided policy," said one pro-reform Cuban economist, who wasn't authorized to speak to foreign reporters without official permission. "Whenever the U.S. puts its support and money behind something, people here grow suspicious or slam on the brakes."
The U.S. funding, he said, "is counterproductive."
He and others say a behind-the-scenes struggle is underway within Cuba's government and ruling communist party between those urging market-style reforms and hardliners eager to keep the status quo. U.S. policymakers fail to appreciate the sensitivity of that debate, and their ability to influence it by injecting American political goals, analysts here said.
Do you think USAID's efforts to support Cuba's entrepreneurs will backfire? Join the conversation in the comment section below. |
Others note that at $3 million over three years, the USAID funding is a largely symbolic amount that won't make much of an impact on an island of 11 million people.
With Cuba's economy cracking under the weight of debts, staggering inefficiencies, and nearly five decades of U.S. trade sanctions, President Raul Castro has pledged to allow more Cubans to start small businesses and even to hire employees, a measure that has long been taboo here. He insists the government isn't turning toward capitalism, but modernizing its socialist system with a measure of common-sense economics.
"We have to erase forever the notion that Cuba is the only country in the world where one can live without working," Castro told Cuba's parliament on Aug. 1, even as Cuban economic officials played down the reforms as "adjustments" to the island's state-controlled economic model.

Leigh mixes the mineral powders of her pigments with oil for optimum viscosity and this results in a softness in her works. Her graphite drawings are a series of circles that burst out like distant suns, again more abstract than her earlier oysters.

Emma's Beauty Bag Must-Haves
She inspired her mom, Heidi Murkoff, to write What to Expect When You're Expecting, and now she is inspiring moms-to-be with this list of her favorite pregnancy beauty products.
"Bikini So Teeny" and "Lovie Dovie" by Essie
Frankly, no matter how un-put together I am looking at the moment (and trust me, I have many such moments), I always feel like a painted lady when my nails and toes are done. My all-time favorite polish? Hands (and feet) down, Essie. Not only is it long lasting (I talk with my hands, so polish chips like nobody's business on these babies), but I recently discovered it is free of DBP, toluene, and formaldehyde (eww). Knowing this, I feel more comfortable using it while baking my baby bun. Try "Bikini So Teeny" if your bun is a boy, "Lovie Dovie" if you're baking a girl.

Secret Clinical Strength Sensitive Skin Deodorant
It is no secret that I love my Secret deodorant. I have long sung its praises — to anyone who would listen, and many who didn't even pretend to. Now that I'm sweating for two, I personally prefer the Clinical Strength Sensitive Skin. It's hypoallergenic, dermatologist tested, strong, and yet gentle enough for my extremely sensitive pregnancy skin. Even if there's no time to shower or brush my hair (hey, bedhead's sexy) there is always time to swipe on Secret. It's my secret weapon against sweat (which I produce like a truck driver with no AC) and the special scent that comes with it. And now my secret is out.

The Vatican has observatories at two sites, one in the small Italian town of Lazio (the Pope's summer residence) and the other on a mountaintop in southeastern Arizona. 24 years ago, in his research of "Centaurs"-- half comets/half asteroids, he observed an anomalous cloud of light next to a centaur beyond Neptune-- such clouds usually surround the object's nucleus rather than appear adjacent to it, he explained. He cited evidence for the migration theory of planets-- suggesting that in the early days of our solar system, Uranus and Neptune moved further out while Jupiter swept closer in from their original positions. In his study of meteorites, he detailed one specimen that curiously had iron that appeared molten right next to rock that looked like it had never been hot. Regarding, ... More »

The remaining 2011 District 10 Little League All-Star brackets have been released, as Punxsy's 10- & 11-year-old baseball and softball and Senior League softball teams now know their postseason schedules.
Punxsy's Senior League softball All-Stars will play first of the three teams. They will visit Brockway Tuesday, June 28. The winner of that game will play Thursday, June 30, at DuBois.
BROOKVILLE — Despite a no-hitter thrown by Brookville's Elaina Powell, DuBois took game one of the Little League softball All-Stars tournament, 13-9, Tuesday in Brookville.
DuBois took an early lead, going up 11-4 in the fourth, but Brookville made a sixth inning push, which proved to be too little, too late.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Police and public officials are warning the public about the dangers of ingesting bath salts or smoking synthetic marijuana as a way to get high, because the results could be fatal.
Last Monday, Punxsutawney Borough Council passed a motion to send letters to all businesses in the borough, asking them not to sell either of the latest over-the-counter substances that are being used as synthetic drugs.
Police Chief Tom Fedigan said bath salts in a crystallized form and synthetic marijuana have a grassy
PUNXSUTAWNEY — If it seems there are more people who own property in Punxsutawney who aren't keeping up with mowing the grass this year, members of borough council would agree with you.
Code Enforcement Officer Mary McHenry said there appears to be more high-grass violations than in other years.
McHenry said in the beginning of the lawn mowing season, she was lenient due to the heavy rainfall this spring.
When people would complain about the neighbors' grass, she would say that she wanted to make sure the person in violation had enough time to cut it, she said.

Theatre Young Harris to Present "The Producers"

Media Contact: Krystin Dean

Note: Image Attached
Theatre Young Harris to Present Tony Award-Winning Musical "The Producers"
YOUNG HARRIS, Ga. – Young Harris College's Theatre Young Harris will present three performances of the Tony Award-winning musical "The Producers." Performances are scheduled for Friday, Feb. 22, and Saturday, Feb. 23, at 7 p.m., with a matinee on Sunday, Feb. 24, at 2 p.m. All performances will take place in Glenn Auditorium located inside the Clegg Fine Arts Building on the YHC campus. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for seniors 65+ or with YHC ID.
Based on the Mel Brooks film of the same name, "The Producers" tells the story of a down-on-his-luck Broadway producer and his mild-mannered accountant who come up with a scheme to produce the most notorious flop in history thereby bilking their backers (all "little old ladies") out of millions of dollars. Only one thing goes awry: the show is a smash hit!
The antics of Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom as they maneuver their way fecklessly through finding a show (the gloriously offensive "Springtime For Hitler"), hiring a director, raising the money and finally going to prison for their misdeeds is a lesson in broad comic construction. At the core of the insanely funny adventure is a poignant emotional journey of two very different men who become friends.
The production is directed by YHC Adjunct Instructor of Theatre and Dance George Koller and features senior Evan McLean of Woodstock, Ga., as Max Bialystock, senior Michael Brown of Quitman, Ga., as Leopold Bloom, junior Ben March of Blairsville, Ga., as Franz Liebkind, junior Will Skelton of Hayesville, N.C., as Roger DeBris, junior Lauren Chamblin of Cumming, Ga., as Ulla, freshman LaDareon Copeland of Centerville, Ga., as Carmen Ghia, sophomore Benjamin Sims of Hiram, Ga., as Bryan, freshman Zachary Waters of Calhoun, Ga., as Scott, freshman Malik Johnson of Carrollton, Ga., as Kevin, and senior Arin Satterfield of Marietta, Ga., as Shirley.
Ensemble members include sophomore T'Arica Crawford of Buford, Ga., junior Ashley Johnson of Canton, Ga., freshman Alana Lambert of Dallas, Ga., sophomore Aaron Shepherd of Murfreesboro, Tenn., junior Britney Cheney of Brooks, Ga., sophomore Rachel Hasluem of Senoia, Ga., freshman Meredith Martin of Cumming, Ga., freshman Stephanie Mills of Bainbridge, Ga., senior Ashley Murray of Young Harris, Ga., freshman Stephanie Rodock of Covington, Ga., sophomore Shanteria Stokes of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., freshman Devyn White of Conyers, Ga., freshman Jacob Bennett of Ellijay, Ga., freshman Justin Hermosilla of Lawrenceville, Ga., sophomore Chelsey Sizemore of Flintstone, Ga., junior Monica Lewis of Dacula, Ga., freshman Carrie Moll of Suwanee, Ga., and junior Brian Walker of Powder Springs, Ga.
Theatre Young Harris is a performing arts organization of Young Harris College. Each season, the theatre company presents a full lineup of notable productions, including full-length musicals, innovative dramas, classic plays, children's shows and more. Auditions are open to students, faculty and staff of Young Harris College as well as the community.
Tickets are on sale now through the Young Harris College Box Office located in the Goolsby Center lobby. Box office hours are Monday-Friday, 3-5 p.m. Tickets may be purchased online anytime at yhc.edu/tickets.

Here are photo instructions for RER B train from Paris CDG Airport Terminal 1 to central Paris (Roissy-Charles de Gaulle Airport to Paris). Click on photos to see larger versions. For train schedules, train ticket prices, maps and other details see the Overview CDG to Paris by Train article.
* Alert! RER B construction works will affect last train departure times from CDG in 2015.
* Warning! Thieves work on this train!
CDG Terminal 1 to Paris
If you're arriving at CDG Terminal 1, you'll first need to take the CDGVAL shuttle train to Terminal 3/Roissypole (center of map) to catch the RER B train to Paris.
Follow CDGVAL signs posted throughout Terminal 1 that will look like the following:
The CDGVAL shuttle train travels from Terminal 1 to Terminal 3/Roissypole then to Terminal 2 as shown on this line map:
While on the CDGVAL shuttle, keep in mind that:
- Terminal 3/Roissypole is the second stop which is before Terminal 2.
- The shuttle will stop at parking garage Pr before arriving at Terminal 3/Roissypole.
Upon arrival at Terminal 3/Roissypole, you will enter a large concrete atrium show here:
When exiting the CDGVAL stop at Terminal 3/Roissypole, turn to your right and walk towards a series of white/fuchsia ticket vending machines and several ticket windows behind an overhead sign for RER B "Paris par train / Paris by train":
From here you can purchase single train tickets for Paris from the blue vending machines (Billetterie Ile-de-France) for €10 one way (price as of 2015). These tickets are known as "Billets Ile-de-France".
Keep in mind that these vending machines do not sell pass cards Pass Navigo and only take coins or smart-chip enabled credit cards. If your credit card is from the U.S., most likely it will not have a smart-chip and will not work with these machines.
To purchase a Pass Navigo Decouverte (public transportation passes) you must visit the ticket window immediately in front of these machines (visible in photo below).
If you already have a Pass Navigo / Pass Navigo Decouverte, you can recharge your card with Navigo Semaine from the white/fuchsia ticket vending Billetterie machines by inserting your pass into the purple Navigo slot and following the prompts. Beware of the purchase restriction schedule on the Pass Navigo.
After purchasing your tickets or passes, you can verify when the next RER B train is scheduled to depart CDG by checking the overhead display screens. The display screen on the right shows RER B trains "To Paris" ("Vers Paris").
RER B trains on this screen stop at all the Paris stations regardless of the name under the Destination column. The Destination names are the terminus stations for the several RER B train line branches and are used to specify the direction each train is traveling. A complete list of departure times from Terminal 1 RER B station towards Paris is available at the bottom of this article.
Insert (and then retrieve) your ticket or scan your pass at the entry gates and descend onto the RER B train platform.
Signs will note that "Tous les trains vont à Paris" ("All trains go to Paris").
Once the train arrives, the train doors may not open automatically. Press the small metallic or rubberized button on the door to open the train doors.
Remember to keep your ticket or passes handy as "controllers" ("ticket checkers") frequent these trains.
Travel time to the first major Paris station: Gare du Nord, is roughly 25 minutes. Stations served after that will be Chatelet Les Halles, St. Michel-Notre Dame, Luxembourg, Port Royal, Denfert Rochereau and Cité Universitaire.
If you need to transfer to a Paris Metro train or a different RER train to arrive at your final destination, you may use your ticket for making the transfer; You do not have to purchase another Paris Metro ticket for the Paris Metro or RER within Paris Zone 1. If you need to transfer to a bus or tram, you will need to purchase a new Paris Metro Ticket (known officially as Ticket t+) as transfers from Metro/RER to buses/trams are not allowed.

They really do seem to have apps for everything these days. Go ahead and add cell counting to the list, thanks to Celeromics' free Cell Count app. Users are walked through a few settings prior to reaching the counter. First, they select the dimensions of their hemocytometer and the number of squares to count. Next, users can turn on the cell viability calculation, which will calculate the percentage of live versus dead cells. From there you reach the counter itself: two boxes on the screen represent alive and dead cells. Simply tap the screen to start the tally. Upon completion of your counting, there is the additional feature of being able to calculate the volume of cells you need to make your target dilution solution. (Those old click-click-click cell counters certainly can't do that!)

How the Weekend Went
- Posted by Johanna on May 9, 2006 at 7:57 am
- Category: LinkBlogging
Sorry for the silence. Free Comic Book Day went well, and on Sunday, when I was selling fifty-cent books at a local convention, that went well, too. I just didn't feel like talking comics afterwards for a bit. Especially since I don't care about Civil War and as for Infinite Crisis, well, here's the only version you need.
(I'm also feeling guilty about getting behind on reviewing again. I haven't talked about the First Second books yet, although they're launching this week, and the kind folks at Digital Manga just sent me a crate of their titles, so I've got lots to catch up on.)
There are lots of FCBD writeups around, but here's a good one. Mike Sterling tackles some of the key questions — how to manage unfamiliar customers' assumptions about what's free, how to make sure what's given out is age-appropriate, and most importantly, whether the event actually builds new customers.
I also found out this weekend that Velocity Comics, a local shop, is moving and expanding by teaming up with an ebay back issue dealer. Velocity isn't my regular shop, because they're far downtown near the university while I'm out in the suburbs, but the owner's a good guy, and since they're plugging "1/2 price used TPBs", I'll pay a visit once they open on June 17.
More later, I hope.

May 9, 2006 at 8:28 AMJohanna, I was at Velocity Comics this weekend and found out about the move. I will be there for the grand opening too. I can't wait to see what the new store looks like.
I had a great time at Richmond Comix. It was great to see the artists, the kids and the staff. I keep telling people it is the best place for FCBD in town.
- Johanna Says:
May 9, 2006 at 9:02 AMThanks, Ed, I'm sure the owner appreciates that. There was a nicely steady flow of people all day, and it was lots of fun recommending comics for them to try.
- Ray Cornwall Says:
May 9, 2006 at 1:58 PMI caught the notice about Richmond Comics's sale too late. 50% off on Marvel Masterworks…whine…
- Johanna Says:
May 9, 2006 at 2:14 PMThere will be another sale July 6-8, so start saving up!
- James Schee Says:
May 9, 2006 at 11:08 PMI look forward to your First Second coverage. I saw one of the volumes in a bookstore over the weekend, but wasn't wowed by the "no one has any bones!" artwork.
