Reader: Why couldn't 9News have kept Kirk Montgomery and dumped a sports reporter?
Kirk Montgomery in a photo from his Facebook page.
We got a lot of response to our post about the impending departure of Kirk Montgomery from 9News. One reader looked at the situation in the context of the many local TV-news stations that have ditched their entertainment reporters of late -- among them CBS4, which said goodbye to 25-year-veteran Greg Moody in January. Here's what she had to say.
Debra Ann writes:
Montgomery and Moody (at channel 4) offered a great deal to those of us who enjoy more than just sports in CO. I understand budget issues, but do we really need so many sports reporters???? Just ONE arts and entertainment anchor per station couldn't possibly bankrupt the stations!! Sad day for the Front Range in CO.

If you are tired of hitting keys on a keyboard and would rather put your feet up to relax in front of a webcam while talking into headphones, Latin Chat Line allows you easy voice communication from the relaxing environment of your home desk. Nothing comparies in personal tone and intimacy with the warmness of the human voice.
Although keyboard chat allows you to carefully formulate every thought, the more improvised nature of voice chat reflects honest thoughts before they are revised. That is what makes voice chat perfect for dating and developing intimate relationships, as such relationships require more honesty.
Voice chat, because it is free, lets you spend hours with that special individual, as if he or she were in the same room. With Latin Chat Line you can talk to someone as you go about your regular routine, even as you perform other tasks. Whether you are just getting to know someone or you are maintaining a years-long friendship, there is no better way to do so than by Latin Chat Line.

Was a very nice gust would love him to come back
Michael was very communicative and left our place nice and tidy. Thanks for staying with us!
Michael is a fantastic guest! Very polite and respectful! Very thoughtful with the space before leaving! Thank you! Wouldn't ever hesitate to have him back!
Even though I didn't meet Michael in person he was an excellent guest. He was easy to get in touch with and hosting him from afar was a breeze. He also was very tidy. He is certainly welcome back whenever he finds himself in Edmonton again and I certainly recommend him to future hosts!
Micheal was a great guest! I unfortunately only got to talk with him briefly as I was out much of the period of his stay. But he was very friendly, quiet and considerate and took good care of the space. He even washed the sheets and towels before leaving! I would gladly host him again.
Michael was only with us for one night but he seems like a very nice person. He left everything tidy and was very respectful.
Left the apartment in good condition.
Michael was an excellent Guest in all respects, and welcome back anytime. Quiet, clean, and considerate. I look forward to referring readers to the Book on Public Transportation he is researching and writing during this journey.
Great Guest - would be happy to have him here again on next swing through Portland.
Michael is an excellent person, very respectful.

World phone use statistics debunked
By Gizmag Team
November 13, 2004
November 14, 2004 There's an oft-quoted statistic that half the world has still not made a telephone call. It might have been true less than a decade ago, but it isn't now.
The infamous statistic first appeared in print in late 1994, when the Toronto Sun quoted it as part of MCI executive Greg LeVert's speech at TeleCon '94. LeVert was making a projection based on phone penetration data from the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the statistic was not meant to be taken as gospel even back then. In context it was actually used to dramatise the magnitude of the coming telecommunications change.
"The ITU estimates that there were 689 million landlines in 1995 and a few more than 1 billion by 2001. This amounts to an average annual growth rate of slightly more than 7 percent. Put another way, half as many landlines were laid in the last six years of the 20th century as in the whole previous history of the world," Wired magazine reported in 2002. The current telecommunications boom, including mobile phones, would put world phone usage safely above the 50% mark.
If you really want a solid statistical analysis of current telecommunications usage, the International Telecommunication Union has recently released their 8th Edition World Telecommunications Indicators Database, which covers telephone network size and dimension, mobile services, quality of service, traffic, staff, tariffs, revenue and investment up to 2003.Share

June 12, 2013 by HRC staff
Post submitted by Eric Cameron, HRC Digital Media Specialist
Today marks the 46th anniversary of the Supreme Court's ruling in Loving v. Virginia, a landmark decision that struck down all race-based legal restrictions on marriage in the United States.
The case was brought by Mildred and Richard Loving – a black woman and a white man – who had been sentenced to a year in prison because their marriage violated Virginia's anti-miscegenation statute.
Chief Justice Earl Warren penned the unanimous opinion, writing:
Marriage is one of the "basic civil rights of man," fundamental to our very existence and survival.... To deny this fundamental freedom on so unsupportable a basis as the racial classifications embodied in these statutes, classifications so directly subversive of the principle of equality at the heart of the Fourteenth Amendment, is surely to deprive all the State's citizens of liberty without due process of law.
Today, as we await rulings from the Supreme Court on two historic same-sex marriage cases, we celebrate the Lovings' landmark victory for equality.
Visit hrc.org/supremecourt to show your support for marriage equality and learn more about some of the ways the court could rule.

Second Annual World Cinema Festival: 'The German Doctor' - with Carolyn Wolfenzon
February 17, 20157:00 PM – 10:00 PM
Sills Hall, Smith Auditorium
Patagonia, 1960. A German doctor meets an Argentinean family and joins them on a long desert road to a small town where they will be starting a new life. Eva, Enzo and their three children welcome the doctor into their home and entrust their young daughter, Lilith to his care, not knowing they are harboring one of the most dangerous criminals in the world and that Israeli agents are desperately looking to bring him to justice.
The German Doctor (Lucía Puenzo, Argentina, 2013) is the true story of the family who lived with Josef Mengele, the German SS officer known as the "Angel of Death," without knowing his true identity. It also follows the girl who fell in love with one of the most heinous criminals of all time in the years he spent "hiding" in South America following his escape from Germany.
Presented by Carolyn Wolfenzon, assistant professor of romance languages.
Bowdoin's World Cinema Festival offers a varied program of important contemporary narrative and documentary films from around the world with post-screening discussions moderated by faculty and students.
The public is welcomed at no charge and tickets are not required.
The 2nd Annual World Cinema Festival is sponsored by the Blythe Bickel Edwards Fund, the Latin American Studies Program, the Asian Studies Program, the Africana Studies Program, the Russian Department, the Romance Languages Department, the English Department, MacMillan House, the Bowdoin Film Society, and the Cinema Studies Program.
Portland Playback Theater: "Letting the World In: Stories of Discovery"
February 26, 20157:00 PM – 8:30 PM
Sills Hall, Smith Auditorium
The Portland Playback Theater comes to campus for a wonderful evening of storytelling and improv theater! This troupe of highly-trained, multi-talented actors featuring Erin Curren, visiting lecturer in French, will "playback" audience stories of discovery, difficulty, culture, realization and more. The group joins the art of improvisation with real-life stories spontaneously shared by members of the audience. Using movement, dialogue and music, the actors seek to honor the countless moments and events that shape our lives.
Portland Playback Theatre Company was founded in Portland, Maine in 2005. The Playback Theatre style models transformation; a new way to relate to the world. When trained playback practitioners enact a story told by a member of the audience, a deep bond of understanding is established between the "teller" and the audience. Playback helps people see their common humanity. When people join together in sharing their stories and watching the re-enactments, it engenders an ability to focus on commonalities rather then judgments of otherness.
Hosted by the Off Campus Study office, along with the McKeen Center and other offices on campus.
Dancer and Choreographer Chantal Loïal: 'On t'appelle Venus (They Call You Venus)'
February 28, 20157:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Visual Arts Center, Kresge Auditorium
In her performance piece, On t'appelle Venus, choreographer and dancer Chantal Loial pays tribute to Sawtche (1789-1819), known asthe Black Venus, who had been brought to France in the nineteenth century by a "tamer" who prostituted her and exploited her as a circus freak. Swatche's body, deemed abnormal, fascinated the European imagination. After she died, scientists dissected her body and displayed it at the Musee de l'Homme in Paris, all in the name of scientific and anthropological progress. Through this artistic expression of her body, Chantal Loial invites us to think of feminine body and the norms we use to draw laws about both the body and beauty.
Loial created her dance company in 1994. She began dancing her native Afro-Guadeloupean traditional dances at age seven and went on to become a professional choreographer and dancer, earning her diploma in contemporary dance at the National Dance Centre of Pantin, France in 2008. She reinterprets traditional Caribbean and African dances that she mixes with European ballet and other forms of dance. In 2014, Loïal received the highest French Order, the National Order of the Legion of Honor for her work in the Arts (Knight of the Legion of Honor).
Open to the public free of charge.

Film Screening: 'Secundaria' with Filmmaker Mary Jane Doherty
March 30, 20157:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Druckenmiller Hall, Cleaveland 151
Boston University film professor Mary Jane Doherty traveledto Cuba multiple times over a period of years to complete what the Boston Globecalled a "lucid, watchful portrait of young ballet dancers desperately tryingto plié their way out of poverty and into the Ballet Nacional."
Doherty'sdocumentary Secundaria follows one high school class on itsjourney through Cuba's world famous National Ballet School. The teenagedancers love to dance…but many of them must dance as the only way to improve the lives of their impoverished families.
As we follow Doherty's primary subjects—middle-classGabriela, poor Mayara, poorer Moises— Secundaria reveals itself through cinematicstorytelling (and without a script, staging, or interviews) as being less aboutcompeting in dance and more about battling into adulthood.
Post-screening discussion with the filmmaker.
Free and open to the public - no tickets required.

These were the look that I wanted and they do provide some storage space I needed. The quality was less than I was expecting. I ordered 3 of these. In trying to assemble the first one, most of the pre-drilled holes did not line up very well making it difficult to assemble. The second on had some damage to the top piece of the unit. The third one was OK....

junky storage bin
looks much better in the pic it was pretty much a piece of junk I had to re-order one of the baskets cause it was lop sided. looks bigger in the pic, kept it anyways but not worth the hassle or the priceRead More
Not too bad for the money
I have to say this unit is not too bad for the money, I got it for about 55 bucks which is not an excellent vaule considering the product is not excellent quality. This unit is a reasonable size and it really was not hard to put together but it is missing the holes on the front bottom panel. I bought two and both were missing the same holes. just need to have someone drill tiny holes to attach the panel. I haven't managed to get my someone to do that yet but the unit functions fine without them. It is not something I would put a heavy item on top of or even some that I cared if it got knocked over and broken. Would not recommend to people with children as I think they would pull it over trying to open the drawers. It is a weird gray not gray and not green may a camouflaged green would describe it best.Read More
Quite Rustic; Color not gray
The wood is quite rough and more stained gray than painted. The baskets are not very tall and are pale gray as pictured but a grey sage green. I think that I can sand and paint the wood to coordinate better with the baskets.Read More

Great Storage for the office
I ordered this piece along with the 5 drawer version as well and now my office is clean and organized. The furniture went together very easy and fits with the other furniture I ordered to match this piece from overstock. The storage drawer bottoms take a bit of time to settle flat and it helps if you put a book on the drawer bottom for some time when you have finished assembling everything. This is light-weight but very solid as the frame is made from solid wood. This was a nice bonus!! Holds a ton of stuff and makes my office a lot less cluttered.Read More
Poor quality
Tops were chipped. Poor quality wood. Baskets won't stay together. Very dissatisfied.Read More
okay, quality could be better
My husband thinks this was a waste of money. That said, it does what I wanted it to do - holds paperback books neatly against a small wall in my computer office. It was a real pain to put together, even though it only involved Allen screws. The Allen wrench was not long enough, I had to use my own. Then I had to have my husband do it, the holes were not lined up on every piece. The baskets were better than I expected. The overall color of the frame is a darker grey than shown. The green baskets look nice with it. The frame does not have a polycoating on it at all, you may want to spray one on yourself to make it look more finished, the wood is very "raw" looking.Read More
The frame is very cheap and very hard to fasten the boltsRead More

Best Kids' Storage
Children's bookshelves and kids' storage, as a rule, should be low to the ground. Furniture tip-overs have accounted for almost 15,000 childhood accidents each year from 1990 to 2007, according to the Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. Children often reach for items on the top of bookshelves, causing tip-overs. With low-to-the-ground kids' storage, children can easily reach their favorite books or other items without parents worrying about the furniture seriously injuring their child. Look below to learn the best kids' bookshelves and other kids' storage bins.
Checklist for Buying Kids' Storage
Shopping for kids' storage can be rough. You need something that will hold everything you want to store, look great and survive your kids. Let's face it; kids can be tough on furniture, but with this checklist, you'll be sure to find the perfect kids' furniture pieces to last and fit all your storage needs. Storage for children's toys and books is important because injuries can occur when kids or adults trip over items left on the floor. One way to avoid that is to invest in quality kids' storage that will last.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
29 Aug 2010 17:17 GMT
The account has been largely corroborated by five western officials familiar with the cases, who said that Karzai and his government have repeatedly thwarted prosecutions against high-ranking officials, the paper reported.
'Stalling and stalling'
One US official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said that Afghan prosecutors had prepared several cases against officials suspected of corruption but Karzai was "stalling and stalling and stalling".Al Jazeera's Hoda Abdel-Hamid, reporting from Kabul, the capital, said Afghanistan's attorney-general, Ishaq Aloko, had told a news conference on Sunday that Faqiryar "is well past retirement age - he's 72"."Apparently retirement age in Afghanistan is 65. His term had been extended for a few years, but he was long overdue for his retirement," she said.
"According to the attorney-general, this retirement was signed about two weeks ago, but because of the bureaucracy it was delayed in conveying the message to the prosecutor."Corruption allegations made by the prosecutor are nothing new, said our correspondent."Anyone you'll speak to will tell you that there is corruption at all levels. The UN issued a report saying that bribery equals to one-quarter of GDP of Afghanistan and that goes all the way from the bottom ... to the president and the cabinet," she added.
Faqiryar said his prosecutors had opened cases on at least 25 current or former Afghan officials including 17 members of Karzai's cabinet, five provincial governors and at least three ambassadors.
Umer Daudzai, Karzai's chief of staff, disputed the allegations and said his government was trying to stop corruption cases from becoming "politicised".
"I strongly deny that the president has been in any way obstructing the investigations of these cases," Daudzai told the Times. "On the contrary, he [Karzai] has done his bit."
Cases did not proceed
None of the cases have been able to proceed, Faqiryar said. He did not elaborate on the cases specifically, nor did he say if Karzai himself was involved in all of the cases or if the orders were coming from Aloko or other ministers.
Afghanistan's government, financed with money from the US and Nato, is "widely regarded as one of the most corrupt in the world", the Times reported.
Earlier this month, Karzai intervened to stop the prosecution of Mohammed Zia Salehi, one of his closest aides, after investigators said they had wiretapped conversations where he demanded a bribe from another Afghan seeking his help in ending a corruption investigation.
Haroun Mir, an Afghan political analyst, told Al Jazeera that Karzai's administration has been struggling with corruption since his re-election.
"Instead of taking measures in the fight against corruption to improve his image, he [Karzai] has dismissed [Faqiryar]," Mir said.
Power brokers, including those who helped in Karzai's election, have virtual immunity from prosecution, he said.
"I don't think Karzai will be able to take any action against these powerful people in the country," Mir said.

I bought the three quarter length sleeved tee striped tea shirt and I love it. I've washed it once and can tell that it is going to last and last and look really great. Thanks Orvis"!
A good value -
By: Maui1994
This top is one of the best products that I have purchased from Orvis. It is true-to-size, good quality material and wears very well. I bought two of them for myself and one as a gift.
Orvis -
By: Beezley from San Jose, CA
This is my main go to shop from now on! I bought this top, (as well as a few others and two sweaters) they all fit well, look great for work and play and the quality is fantastic!
Perfect for Fall -
By: SouthernMom210 from Blue Ridge Mountains, Virginia
The fit was great and the weight of the fabric is perfect for Fall. I'm only 5'2" so the sleeves were a bit long--had to alter them slightly but otherwise a great top with khaki, navy or jeans.
nice fabric -
By: mamieinmo
This tee has a nice weight of fabric to transition into fall. Will look nice alone or with a denim jacket. Pay attention to the fit description, the shape is pretty but it is more snug than I expected. My own fault, as the description does say less boxy and more shaped. I'm not returning it but I wish I had ordered the next size up. Still, a very nice tee.
By: mascourt from Houston, Texas
Very happy with this shirt, nice fit and style, altogether comfortable.

Caitlyn is pretty easy to get used to
Graves by far.
Also Vladimir is pretty easy.
Leona, Graves, Caitlyn
longest range in the game
Easiest Attack animation
Nice escape ability
Xerath. Sit off screen of your enemies and hit q. Don't worry about them dodging anything.
Juodas Balta
i beg to differ on Caitlyn.
One would need to be familiar with ranged AD positioning or she'll die easily and frequently. Not suitable for noobs.
I'd say there's no one easier than Riven, no positioning required, just dash in, QQQ, stun, add in ulti if needed. Ez.

Second flush of blooms from my First Brug ever!
Okay, Im on my second flush of blooms now and I am very excited! The fragrance is great (Unforuntely, I have to say that my Jasmine and Gardenia have a stronger than this particular brug) and there are 6 blooms on it today which is great for its size! I notice that the blooms close up a bit during the day and the leaves are more upright at night. Anyone else have this experience (or do all brugs do this?)
Here are some nighttime pics which is when its at its best! There are 5-7 different blooms on the brug in this pic and I would say at least 20 more buds on the way!
Oh and just for the record, here is what it looked like back in April! What a fast growing plant (and I know some people record even more growth!)
And here it is sometime in June, still very small in comparison to now!
Thanks for looking!
Congratulations! It's a beautiful plant and the foliage looks really healthy. The upward movement of the foliage at night is normal and is called photonasty. You will also notice that the scent of your brugs is stronger at night. Many of mine have no fragrance during daylight hours but do smell at night. There's so many different fragrances with brugs. The only ones I don't care for are the ones that smell like baby powder. I also can't keep blooming brugs in the house or even the garage because the smell permeates the house. I love the scent when they are outside but can't stand it in an enclosed space.
Thanks for the info Karyn! I definitely notice a strong fragrance at night from the Brugs and none during the day. I also dont like the smell of the ones that smell like Baby Powder, but fortunately mine (ember glow) doesn't have that scent!
Alex I've noticed you on several of the forums that I'm on. Are you a fellow tropical plant nut that lives in zone 7 but grows plants suited more for zones 9 and warmer?
Yes Karyn, I definitely am! Palms, brugs, Plumerias, and Bananas are just a few tropical plants that I try to grow! I grow some tropical plants that are marginal to a zone 7 and lots of others that are at least one 9 or higher!
What tropicals do you grow the most of?
I probably have more passifloras then anything, a lot of brugs. I'm down to about a half dozen plumerias. At one point I had about 40, not including seedlings, but decided to dedicate space to other things. If they could be cut back at the end of the season I'd probably still be growing them but they took up too much space over the winter. I probably began cutting back on plumerias about 5 years ago. I also cut back on tropical fruit trees for similar reasons. Lots of strophanthus, jasmines, gardenias, clerodendrums, thunbergias, stapelias, huernias, orbeas, ceropegias, caudiciforms, hoyas, and 1 or 2 of many other varieties. I don't grow palms or common houseplants.
Almost everything goes into one of the greenhouses for the winter. I hate Oct and May when everything gets moved. I do grow zone appropriate plants in the yard but spend more time with tropicals and sub-tropicals. All are container grown but I do sink some during the growing season. I wish I was in zone 10 but then I'd be complaining that I couldn't grow peonies, lilacs or spring bulbs. lol
Where are you located?
I live in NYC. I have to admit, pretty much everything I have in the ground that I spend time growing really is marginal at best. The only plants I grow in the ground that I actually see around here is a Crape Myrtle, a Fig, a Camellia, coneflowers, and an eastern prickly pear. All the rest are tropicals planted in the ground for the summer, or palm trees planted in the ground all year long (and then my potted tropical plants also!).
I really like brugs because they are so easy to store indoors! I forgot I had a brug for most of the winter and then I found it behind my other plants. I gave it some water and it started growing leaves within a week. I dont think I have many other tropical plants that need such little care during the winter!
I want a greenhouse very badly, but living in NYC means that space is a big problem, so all my plants go in the house and its getting pretty crowded. I think my least favorite time of the growing season is early April and mid October for the same reason as you (plus my yard looks pretty bare until about late June).
I was happy to see my Frostproof gardenia blooming again today (second bloom of the week), and since its planted next to my brugmansia, they both work together to make the side of my yard EXTREMELY fragrant at night! I was taking a few pics of the plants tonight and as soon as I got within 20 feet of my Brug, I smelt it! Im definitely planting more in the same spot next season!
I dont think I would complain much about living in a zone 10. I would probably have spring bulbs growing in the dead of winter (and storing them in their own fridge or something for the rest of the year) and the tropicals would of course be outside all year long! It would be like a vacation every time I walk into my yard (without the worry of having to bring them inside every winter and the wait until July for them to start getting really lush looking). I think there is only 4 months of the year that I can say my yard looks very lush and tropical, but its all worth it!

Towards the real al-Qaida
As the sixth anniversary of the 11 September 2001 attacks on the United States has approached, talk of a reconstituted, strengthened, and resurrected al-Qaida have proliferated among officialdom, security experts, and the establishment media. The opening salvo of that discourse came in early April 2007 when the New York Times reported that al-Qaida has come to be working today precisely as Osama bin Laden had initially envisaged. By July, using language echoing the prescient August 2001 memorandum to President George W Bush (see CNN, "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US", 10 April 2004), the US's national-intelligence council produced an estimate entitled "Al-Qaida Better Positioned to Strike the West".
The dividends of asymmetry: al-Qaida's evolving strategy
A year without a major al-Qaida attack might suggest an organisation in retreat. Not so, says Mohammad-Mahmoud Ould Mohamedou.

Release Date:
September 1, 2003
Date Published:
September 1, 2003
Fifteen years ago, Robert Fulghum published a simple credo-a credo that became the phenomenal #1 New York Times bestseller All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten. Now, seven million copies later, Fulghum returns to the book that was embraced around the world. He has written a new preface and twenty-five essays, which add even more potency to a common, though no less relevant, piece of wisdom: that the most basic aspects of life bear its most important opportunities.
Here Fulghum engages us with musings on life, death, love, pain, joy, sorrow, and the best chicken-fried steak in the continental U.S.A. The little seed in the Styrofoam cup offers a reminder about our own mortality and the delicate nature of life . . . a spider who catches (and loses) a full-grown woman in its web one fine morning teaches us about surviving catastrophe . . . the love story of Jean-Francois Pilatre and his hot air balloon reminds us to be brave and unafraid to "fly" . . . life lessons hidden in the laundry pile . . . magical qualities found in a box of crayons . . . hide-and-seek vs. sardines-and how these games relate to the nature of God. All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten is brimming with the very stuff of life and the significance found in the smallest details.
In the years that have passed since the first publication of this book that touched so many with its simple, profound wisdom, Robert Fulghum has had some time to ponder, to reevaluate, and to reconsider. And here are those fresh thoughts on classic topics, right alongside the wonderful new essays.
Perhaps in today's chaotic, more challenging world, these essays on life will resonate even deeper-as readers discover how universal insights can be found in ordinary events.
This 15th-anniversary edition of the popular guide to living, with its simple but universal insights, includes a new preface and 25 new essays.
- Genre: Self Improvement, Philosophy
- Subgenre: General, Motivational + Inspirational

Real Country
Music and Language in Working-Class Culture
Reviewed by
Edward Morris
Rarely has a student of country music imbedded himself as deeply and profitably in the subject as this author does. Fox first came to the little town of Lockhart, Texas—the site of this study—in February 1990. He says he was "seeking a great country music jukebox." Then a doctoral student in anthropology at the University of Texas in Austin, Fox found a lot more than a jukebox. He also discovered a tightly knit community of blue-collar folk who congregated regularly at the towns shabby bars to drink, talk, and listen to and play country music. For these people, "real country music"—not the glossy Nashville stuff—is a surrogate heartbeat.
Fox observed and took notes at the Lockhart hangouts for a year before the locals learned that he was a first-rate guitar player who knew as much about country music as they did. After that, he became one of the tribe. He joined in the jam sessions at the bars and began playing in the ad hoc bands. This went on until 1994, when he completed his studies and left Texas.
Apart from the music itself, he was particularly drawn to the way the people talked to each other, the cadence of their language, the way they narrated and dramatized their stories, and the manner in which they wove country music phrases and attitudes into their conversations. Much of the book is devoted to reproducing and explaining these spontaneous bursts of speech and relating them to the larger context of country music, an art form distinguished by its rural—based and backward—looking ideals and its glorification of rugged individualism.
While this approach sounds very academic—and it is—it gave Fox the insights he needed to portray his subjects as emotionally complex people worth caring about. Reading the book is something like watching a production of Eugene ONeils The Iceman Cometh—minus the plays enervating sense of despair. Fox is not so swept away by his new acquaintances, however, that he allows them to dilute or compromise his own values. When the first Gulf War began in early 1991, he was so put off by the racist remarks and knee-jerk patriotism he witnessed in the bars that he stayed away from them for "several months" before returning to resume his studies and friendships.
Fox is now an associate professor of music and the director of the Center for Ethnomusicology at Columbia University. His Real Country succeeds on two levels: as a demonstration to scholars of how art and life intertwine within and among the members of a small homogenous community, and as a prose documentary about proud people who have little but their music and each others company to look forward to.

Merced salvages HUD funds for graffiti removal
Merced's City Council approved a change to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development plan that will salvage some dollars for use on a graffiti project, but the city still must dip into the general fund to make up for failed economic projects.
The council unanimously approved an amendment redirecting $100,833 to graffiti abatement and other services expected to be approved under HUD rules during Monday's regular meeting.
HUD had found issues with a graffiti-abatement program that required reports on abatement efforts in designated disadvantaged neighborhoods. City staffers eventually were able to generate the necessary reports and keep the HUD money in the program, said Mark Hamilton, a housing specialist with the city.
However, the city will have to cover $230,807 spent on economic development with general fund money.
Some of the federal dollars were aimed at a Wal-Mart distribution center, plans that have been delayed.
HUD funding and other sources would have helped cover the cost, and would have required local hiring, but that money fell through with the projects. HUD requires "measurable results" in projects funded by the federal money.
In 2005, the retail giant proposed to build a 1.2 million-square-foot distribution center on a 230-acre site at the northwest corner of Gerard Avenue and Tower Road. The corporation announced in December that Merced would not see the facility break ground in 2014.
City Manager John Bramble has said the rules and regulations for HUD funding have changed over the past few years. City staffers have caught up on the training needed to meet those regulations, he said.
General fund money typically pays for public safety and other services. "These (amendments) are painful, coming out of the general fund," Councilman Mike Murphy said.
In March, the council shuffled around $360,000 it received from HUD to allow the city to put the money toward other efforts in town. Those funds can be used on rehabilitation and reconstruction.
Merced prepares a plan for submission to HUD every year. The framework for the plan is found in the 2010 Consolidated Plan, a five-year planning document that outlines the city's strategy for pursuing federal, state and local resources to meet housing and community development needs of low- and moderate-income Merced residents.
The last HUD plan was adopted in September.

text: Awesome fish. Never caught anything like that myself on the SF great job. About a month ago, I ran into an older gentleman and his grandson higher up on the SF and he reported to me that 3-4 years ago he caught a 23" fish on the MF down near North Bend somewhere. With the fish you caught, that's entirely possible. He's a North Bend native and he also gave me a good history lesson about the SF/MF and surrounding area.

In Matlab, slice can be a vector:
a = {'a','b','c','d','e','f','g'}; % cell array
b = a([1:3,5,7]);
How can I do the same thing in python?
a = ['a','b','c','d','e','f','g']
b = [a[i] for i in [0,1,2,4,6]]
but when 1:3 becomes 1:100, this will not work. Using range(2),4,6 returns ([0,1,2],4,6), not (0,1,2,4,6). Is there a fast and "pythonic" way?

The Connecticut school tragedy makes us think. Mental health care and gun control stir public debates. Politicians might change something about gun access even though they wouldn't know how to actually correct anything. I doubt the medical and mental health professionals will do anything much about access to good mental health care. Their entrenched system, so fractured, so archaic, so lowly funded and poorly manned, blocks changes.
The medical professionals have not stepped up to help mental health professionals organize a scientific, modern system that intends to bring trained care to anyone in need. Nor have mental health professionals asked for teamwork. Funding cannot be attracted in the absence of thorough overhaul of the whole thing. Yes, funding has to come out of the dark ages just as methods and medicines do.
I believe the public and the people struggling with any form of mental illness know instinctively how a better system has to bring all manner of loving personal connections back into mental health care. Secrecy and privacy ought to be calmed down to enable providers to teach family and other helpers how to understand. Add that sensitivity to a new system. Teach patient and clients how that strengthens their mental health.

Boots Traditional Skincare Range Glycerin and Rose Water
Average Rating 3.9/5
Review by Tishkaminx
I bought this along with the boots traditional cold cream cleanser. Firstly the cleanser smells liek zinc and castor oil cream and is really quite thin for a cold cream . Secondly the rose water & Glycerine was sticky and left my skin tacky and greasy feeling and I now realise that although I'm a retrophile, it's the vampy incence fragrances that I prefer and full -on lady-like florals like rose and lavender are not for me. I put this in an atomiser to use up as room scent as i hate to waste a product.

The Boat Landing
Getting to the Boat Landing, for six year old boys who lived above the park in 1953, was quite an adventure. There were three other wonderful WPA structures to navigate on the journey. Unfortunately, poor foresight by a previous park director has erased most of the WPA's monuments in Lehigh Parkway. I had the privilege to rescue a portion of two of the structures. This coming Saturday, April 6th, I will have the opportunity to explain what we lost, and how we can save what remains. As the postcard from the mid-50's above shows, the Boat Landing (my name for the structure) was a source of pride for the city and park system. Please join me, and other friends of the park, at the Robin Hood Parking lot at 10:00a.m.

After a rough half-decade or so ("Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," "The Adventures of Tintin," "War Horse," failing to get "Harvey" made), Steven Spielberg is back to enjoying the kind of success he's used to; "Lincoln" is closing on $150 million domestically alone, and is likely to be the most nomina...Read More »

Oh, hey, "Red Dawn." This is coming out next week? Or wait, the week after? We can't really remember, but a half-hearted campaign is sort of happening for the movie and a couple of clips landed this week in case you missed it.Read More »
It seems everyone wants a piece of "Thor" star Chris Hemsworth these days. Steven Spielberg is rounding him up for "Robopocalypse," Universal is eager for more 'Huntsman' and Ron Howard is revving him up in "Rush." Now, CBS Films is ready to give the actor yet a...Read More »
