GOP decries looming 'regulatory cliff' in new term
Thursday - 12/13/2012, 2:18pm EST
By MATTHEW DALY
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - While the "fiscal cliff" of looming tax increases and spending cuts dominates political conversation in Washington, some Republicans and business groups see signs of a "regulatory cliff" that they say could be just as damaging to the economy.
For months, federal agencies and the White House have sidetracked dozens of major regulations that cover everything from power plant pollution to workplace safety to a crackdown on Wall Street.
The rules had been largely put on hold during the presidential campaign as the White House sought to quiet Republican charges that President Barack Obama was an overzealous regulator who is killing U.S. jobs.
But since the election, the Obama administration has quietly reopened the regulations pipeline.
In recent weeks, the Environmental Protection Agency has proposed rules to update water quality guidelines for beaches and deal with runoff from logging roads. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, meanwhile, has proposed long-delayed regulations requiring auto makers to include event data recorders _ better known as "black boxes" _ in all new cars and light trucks beginning in 2014.
The administration also has initiated several rules to implement its health care overhaul, including a new fee to cushion the cost of covering people with pre-existing conditions.
Some GOP lawmakers fear the worst.
Obama has spent the past year "punting" on a slew of job-killing regulations that will be unleashed in a second term, said Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla. With the election over, it's now "full speed ahead" for federal rules limiting greenhouse gas emissions, requiring cleaner gasoline and putting controls on drilling for oil and natural gas, said Inhofe, the senior Republican on the Senate Environment Committee.
"Under an Obama EPA that has earned a reputation for abuse, American families will be subjected to a regulatory onslaught that will drive up energy prices, destroy millions of jobs and further weaken the economy," he wrote in a 14-page report on expected EPA regulations for 2013. The report predicts an influx of regulations that "spell doom for jobs and economic growth."
Environmental groups say fears of a second-term regulatory deluge are overstated.
"At this point it still has the appearance of being more of a trickle than a flood," said Frank O'Donnell, president of the environmental group Clean Air Watch. "I don't see the hard evidence" of an avalanche of rules.
The EPA is principally focused on meeting court-ordered deadlines, such as Friday's deadline for a rule intended to reduce the amount of soot that can be released into the air, O'Donnell and others said. Other high-profile rules and initiatives are being rolled out more slowly, if at all.
Randy Rabinowitz, director of regulatory policy at OMB Watch, a private group that tracks federal rules, said regulations now being released are long overdue _ in some cases months or even years after federal guidelines say they should have been published.
"We've been disappointed that Obama has been a tepid regulator" in his first term, Rabinowitz said, adding that she hopes the administration "moves more vigorously to protect the public from harm" in a second term.
"I would love for the election to be interpreted as a mandate for Obama to move forward with stronger protections for the public," she said.
A spokeswoman for the White House Office of Management and Budget, the gatekeeper for federal regulations, said the administration is focused on protecting public health and safety while avoiding unnecessary burdens on business.
"We intend to continue that approach moving forward, including careful analysis of costs and benefits as well as a commitment to protecting the health, welfare and safety of the American people at the same time that we promote economic growth," OMB spokeswoman Moira Mack wrote in an email.
In January 2011, Obama ordered all federal agencies to get rid of rules that were excessively burdensome, redundant, inconsistent or overlapping. The ax fell on hundreds of regulations, with moves made to streamline tax forms, let railroad companies pass on installing expensive technology and speed up the visa process for low-risk visitors to the U.S. The administration said the moves would save businesses about $10 billion over five years and spur job growth.
But some Republicans and business groups say new regulations, on top of rules already issued by the administration, could strangle the economy just as it begins to grow.
A new study by the National Association of Manufacturers claims major new EPA rules could cost manufacturers hundreds of billions of dollars and eliminate millions of American jobs.

Hm. We shall see.
Looking forward to this.Hornets' Eric Gordon may make his debut on Saturday at Charlotte, according to Monty Williams. Story coming shortly on NOLA.com
PelicansReport.com Sim League
New Orleans Hornets General Manager
It'll probably be limited minutes, but any are good right now.
"I don't know if people know I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"
Man I wish it would be Friday so I could see him play and win the Gordon return date bet we have going on on here
Jan 15th is right around the corner, I'm just saying.......
Honestly, I just hope he comes back and becomes what he can be. An every year All-Star, that impacts both sides of the ball, and if he doesn't want to be here, just be quiet about it so Dell can get great value back in return.
Dang I had my mind set on Friday.
R.I.P. to HunnyB/FlyGirl
i choose to be optimistic and excited. it's christmas afterall.
Well I think we can all agree that it makes losing tonight's game that much more vital for our Bees. Prolly gonna be a close to .500 team If EG10 really comes back healthy.
"The only thing Ryno stretches is the 0's on the stat sheet." - BallSoHard
It would be cool if someone there at least got a video of our rookies singing happy birthday.
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
I was on board for the tank last year, but now that we have Davis, I don't want to go through that again. Any win is good for this team.
People always look at the thunder as the model, but not everyone gets as lucky as they did with the draft.
Sacremento: Cousins, Evans and now Robinson. Still not relevant, at all.
Golden State: JUST becoming relevant after Steph Curry, Klay, Barnes and it took getting David Lee and eventually Bogut whenever
Minnesota: Years after drafting Love, Wes Johnson, Williams, rubio STILL striggling to become relevant.
Charlotte: Nuff Said
Washington: Nuff said again. They've been hit with injuries, but do you think with Wall, they'd be pushing for the playoffs?
Toronto: Who many years in the lotto have they been in? Bargaini, DeRozen, Valdkhbdhbdis, Bosh, etc
Cleveland: Sort of the same situation but one year ahead os us being bless with 2 top picks after their superstar left. Still in the Cellar. 7-23, not that they've gone balls to the wall in FA but still gives you a feel. One outstanding #1 overall and another guy who's somewhat failed to live up to expectations.
It's not as romantic as it seems.
We already did what none of those teams could do. We got a player that could and should become one of the best players in the whole league. Whatever purpose you T-word for, we've already done it. There is no Anthony Davis this year. Andrew Wiggins next seasons maybe, but we for damn sure aren't looking to be missing the playoffs by then.
I hope EG returns Friday so i can see it in person.
As far as the TANK, personally for me its just a joke. Makes me feel better about only winning 6 games. I know we aren't losing on purpose nor would i be for that. I live by a strict code of BEAST or TANK. (again a joke, like most of what i post on here)
I am honestly hoping to make it back to .500 with EG and let the chips fall where they may in regards to the draft.
This year is all about improvement / progress. I don't really care about anything else tank, playoffs, or otherwise.
This is the whole thing right here. You need to tank, but more importantly you need to TANK when there is a generational player in the draft i.e. Duncan, LeBron, Rose, and now Davis. A team with LeBron and 4 ave. players will have a better chance to win a title than Bogut, Bargnani, Oden, and John Wall.
Curious if he'll start right away.
Too lazy to look for it, but Monty said he was gonna bring him along slowly. I don't see him starting right away.

the curtains in the garage made me do a double take and i thought it was inside the house, like in your room. HAHAHA
I love the headlight intake, but what is the right behind the light that is carbon wrapped? is that just a chamber for the air or is that where the filter is located?
Wish I could afford a name brand one.
The Forge Twintake uses the same style, I may contact Forge.
That cannister filter was only 40 bucks on ebay.
Pulling the head to freshen up the bottom end this weekend!!!!
In other news, updates are coming later this week.
Sorry for all the questions but now you have me dreaming, can you pm me some links where you picked up the funnel tube pieced used in the headlight and also where you got the cannister/filter piece. Would be much appreciated
I will try and sketch up a plan for my new turbo inlet/intake


text: I bought a used disc at Play it Again a few days ago and I need some help figuring out exactly what I've got. From the rim / shape, I could tell it was some sort of mid-range. It's an Innova disc. The stamp is from the 2006 Charlie Vettner Open. The design shows the bottom of a basket with some ants packing a disc. It is Orange / Red in color. I think it might be a Roc, but I don't know for sure. Can anyone confirm what was given away at that tourney? Thanks for your help.

Comments about 20V MAX Cordless Lithium-Ion 1/4 in. Brushless 3-Speed Impact Driver:
My first use of the tool out of the box was driving 4" wood screws to support 3/4" plywood rails on building studs. The tool drove these without pilot holes all the way in, without any hint of bogging down. I drove some 1 1/4" screws to join 3/4" plywood and the low speed showed its worth. If I used the high speed, it virtually buried the screw in the wood before I could stop it. The low speed allowed very controlled driving and I easily drove each screw in just below flush with the surface of the wood.
I've been using the driver 1-2 hours a day for over a week on the same battery. It shows no signs of needing to recharge yet.
I purchased a hitachi keyed chuck (german made) and I am very pleased with the use of this tool as a high speed drill. I do a lot of dowel joint joinery with 3/8" dowels. The Dewalt driver with the Hitachi chuck does a superb job of effortlessly drilling 3/8" holes quickly. It is a real time saver.
I would rate this as the most useful and advanced portable power tool I have ever owned.

After months of searching for Jay Faron's replacement, Misty Marston has been named the new Executive Director for the Pitt County Boys and Girls Clubs, a joint leadership role over the Greenville area and Lenoir Boys and Girls Clubs.
Faron, the director for 17 years, announced his retirement in May.
Marston brings 13 years of experience, including consulting, fundraising and directing other Boys and Girls Clubs organizations. Her most recent position as the principal for 12 Consulting, Inc. keeps her on her toes, but she said she was "excited" when she got the call about her new job.
"It was something I wanted to be a part of for a long time," said Marston, a North Wilkesboro native. "I'm honored."
Marston spent most of her professional career with Boys and Girls Clubs organizations and said she "fell in love" with their mission.
"It does so much for children and can do more," she said.
She plans to keep building on the "history of success" she said the organization has, starting with a program called "Formula for Impact," which will focus on children's academic success, healthy lifestyles, character and citizenship.
The community plays a key role in fueling these clubs. Marston said that's the most valuable thing Faron will leave behind in December.
"Jay brought to the table a lot of knowledge about the community," she said. "We're going to continue to need that community support."
Of Faron's 25 years in the Boys and Girls Club, 17 were in the Pitt County area, giving him a chance to build a strong community foundation. The Pitt County Boys and Girls Clubs serve over 1,700 children from ages six to 18. The Lenoir County Boys and Girls Club opened in 1987.
"It's been a good combination of services, progress, and support for the community," Faron said of his 17-year tenure. One of the goals when he started was to open more clubs, which was reached.
"I feel good about what we've been able to accomplish in the last 17 years," he said. "I'm excited for the Boys and Girls Club because there's going to be great leadership, not only from Misty, but from the whole staff. I feel really good [about] turning it over."
Faron will spend time with his family in Raleigh when he steps down.
"He was phenomenal," said Jim Dubbins, member of the Lenoir County Boys and Girls Club Board, about the exiting director. "He's done a phenomenal job for us, and we were extremely disappointed to learn that he was leaving. He made a big difference in our clubs."
Dubbins hasn't yet met Marston, who starts her new job Dec. 3, but said she is "well-qualified based on what was released" about her. Farons said she is a good leader with a broad background in the Boys and Girls Club realm.

"Praying for Time" is a U.S. number-one song written and performed by George Michael, released on Epic Records in 1990.
A dark and sombre reflection on social ills and injustice, the song was hailed by critics as it peaked at number six in the UK, but it was his ninth number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in the USA. The song remained in the Billboard Top 40 for ten weeks. George used an echoey vocal effect and put the melody in a low enough key to take away the sunny nature of his regular singing voice. It was the first song of political motivation he had released as a single since his earliest days with Wham!.
The song was the first of five released in the UK from the album Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1, although it was the only one of the quintet to make the UK Top 10.
The song was performed by George Michael himself during the 2008 American Idol Finale on May 21, 2008. At the conclusion of his performance, host Ryan Seacrest greeted Michael, who confirmed that his North American leg of 25 Live tour would kick off in San Diego on June 17, 2008.

His projects from SOM have received numerous awards, including AIA National Healthcare Design Awards, Middle East Architects Awards, and World Architecture News Awards.

His ornamentation of towers, a tower design proposal for a future city, has been introduced by the Wall Street Journal as "The Towers of Tomorrow".
Song's professional experience also includes working for OMA in Rotterdam, Sauerbruch Hutton in Berlin, and Leers Weinzapfel Associates in Boston.

National team competitions
14-26, 18-13, 25-16, 18-16
It's been an enjoyable season so far for everyone associated with Telekom Baskets, but the wheels almost came off against Armia as they scraped an unconvincing 75-71 win in EuroChallenge Group H.
Bonn's campaign almost took an unwanted turn for the worst as winless Armia threatened to impose successive losses on their opponent, who had also fallen on the weekend domestically.
However, the Georgians blew their big chance when to the relief of most spectators inside the Telekom Dome, Giorgi Gamqrelidze missed two free-throws in a bid to force overtime for the visitors ahead of Kyle Weems making the game safe from a subsequent foul on the rebound with three seconds left.
It was fitting Weems had the last say since he finished with 17 points and seven rebounds and was the top performer for the Bonn club along with veteran Chris Ensminger who had 15 points and eight rebounds.
It was also perhaps ironic that free-throws sealed the victory, since both teams were atrocious from the line all night.
The hosts missed 11 free-throws and Armia will be kicking themselves for missing 13 which could, and should, have made it an uncomfortable night for the home team who top the group with three wins.
Curtis Millage was excellent in defeat with 23 points and seven rebounds.
Armia player Giorgi Gamqrelidze"Congratulations to Bonn. This was a very tough and good game. We did everything to win but especially in the last minutes we had no luck. Now we want to win the next games to reach the next round."
Telekom Baskets Bonn player Kyle Weems"I have to give credit to Armia. Especially in the first half they showed that they are a very good team. I am very excited that we got this win tonight."
Armia head coach Kote Tugushi"Congratulation to Coach Koch and the Fans of Telekom Baskets Bonn. They saw a great game in which we made the mistakes at the end of the game. Especially our free-throw percentage was very poor. Basketball is a 40-minute game and not a game for 20 minutes. Although we showed that we can play good basketball. Now we want to win our home games."
Telekom Baskets Bonn head coach Michael Koch"Thanks for the congratulations. Armia gave us a hell of a fight. We know how difficult it is to play on the road. It was a tough beginning for us but for the time being we made some adjustments in defense and hit some big shots. But I also know that this is what the basketball people in Bonn want to see."

Wow — feels like we haven't had a Sweets for quite some time. First there was the whole Coachella thing, and then last week was a bit of a write-off. Time to get back into it! I've got a lot to catch up on, but only the newest for you. Leh-go!
Start off with a heater. Designer Drugs have been informating us for quite some time, via Twitter and Facebook, that PLS DNT STP drop some of the hardest tunez out there. So what could be better than PLS DNT STP dropping an original remix over one of DD's bangers. This track is an anthem!
Designer Drugs-For All We Know (PLS DNT STP RMX): LISTEN TO IT HERE
Blood Music's LeBreton is back at it again with his new EP Steam. Only two tracks but both of them are fresh to death. Steam chains you up in that Blood Music dungeon with maxed-out bass and a classic clap that will gnaw away at your soul. You know, in a good way. Pick it up!
Deadmau5 seems to be finding his rhythm. It have something to do with the fact that his condo is finally finished and he's officially moved into a place that contains not only a state-of-the-art studio, but also thousands of stuffed mice. Whatever it is, the music seems to be getting better and better. This is spankin' new and hot hot hot. Enjoy!
f**kmylife – Fn Pig: LISTEN TO IT HERE
Shout out to thissongissick.com for releasing this ultra-exclusive new Jack Beats remix of Flux Pavilion's "Daydream." Two huge names, one incredible sound.
Flux Pavilion – Daydreamer (Jack Beats Remix): LISTEN TO IT HERE
The M Machine dropped their new EP, Metropolis, earlier this week, and they remain, as ever, blog darlings. The first track has my immediate attention — and now, with any luck, yours too.
The M Machine – Immigrants: LISTEN TO IT HERE
Judging by the SoundCloud upload date, it would appear that I'm quite tardy on this one. But what the hey — I love a good deep club sound. Maya Jane Coles goes completely old school Chicago on this one, giving me a warm feeling in my special places.
Franck Roger – Bring It Back (Maya Jane Coles Remix): LISTEN TO IT HERE
Lets get ravey! You know what that means: Skream up in a di mix, zee mi now! Shout out to Theophilus London for providing the material to re-work.
Skream – I Stand Alone (Skream Remix): LISTEN TO IT HERE
Flosstradamus seem to be having a moment just now. I know that sounds outrageous to some, as they've been dropping bangers for a while. But it does appear that a wider public is now embracing the duo from the Windy City, and that's nothing but good news for Floss fans everywhere.
Flosstradamus x Deniro Farrar- Look At The Sky: LISTEN TO IT HERE
And how dare I even dream of making a "Sweets" without dropping the newest Killa Killa sounds.
Yo! by Mart!n McFly (The Killabits Remix): LISTEN TO IT HERE
But where's the Progressive house? you say. Why, right here: the newest from Michael Brun & Special Features. Big room all day!
Michael Brun & Special Features – Synergy (Original Mix): LISTEN TO IT HERE
Finalement, a brand new 50-minute mix from our favourite Frenchman, Gesaffelstein. This might sound a little off-the-wall to those of you more used to traditional EDM, but variety is the spice of life, n'est-ce pas?

(BURBANK, CA) -- Tod Hunter and Magdalene St. Michaels are both celebrating their birthdays this Tuesday night at PSK and want everyone to come on down and party with them.
Tod Hunter has been in the adult industry since 1997. He has been writing about the stars, news events and interviewing the newcomers to give some of them that much needed press exposure. Everyone knows Tod and he is highly respected in the industry.
''The Porn Star Karaoke phenomenon has been a big part of the adult industry and I've been privileged to have a ringside seat for all of it,'' Tod Hunter said. ''Seymour welcomes the industry every week and everybody in the adult industry from the biggest stars and directors to the greenest newbies - and quite a few mainstream names - have spent a Tuesday night at Sardo's.''
Magdalene St. Michaels is also celebrating her webcam debut with MetroBabes.com. ''To be honest, my birthday is closer to last Tuesday, but I was working that day and as it happens, I was still on set at 2:30 am,'' St. Michaels laughed. Magdalene St. Michaels has shot close to 100 scenes in her career. She was nominated for MILF/Cougar Performer of the Year at the AVN Adult Movie Awards in 2009 and 2010, and she can be seen in the recently released ''Netskirts 1.0'' from Girlfriends Films, ''Mother Lovers Society'' from Sweetheart Video, and ''A Man with a Maid: Tales of Victorian Lust'' from Sweet Sinner Films. She will be handing out copies of ''Netskirt 1.0''.
To help them both celebrate their birthdays will be our Hot & Sexy hostess, Nicki Hunter. Nicki can be heard weeknights co-hosting ''Night Calls'' with Christy Canyon from 4-7 p.m. PDT on Playboy Radio, channel 99 on Sirius and XM. Nicki was named Female Performer of the Year by the X-Rated Critics Organization in 2006 and is also directing for Meanbitches.com, thevenusgirls.com and DeviantDavid.com.
Porn Star Karaoke is open to the public as well as to members of the adult industry. Since its start in July 2003, Porn Star Karaoke has become the longest-running ongoing weekly event in the history of the adult business.
Admission is 21 and older, with photo ID and parking is free.
Sardo's Grill and Lounge is located at 259 N. Pass Ave in Burbank, Calif. Porn Star Karaoke starts at 9 p.m. For more information, visit the Sardo's website. Adult industry professionals are invited to reserve tables, which are held until 10:30 p.m. Email email@example.com.

Advancement News
Faculty and Staff Giving is a Winning TraditionPosted Apr. 19, 2010
Head Men's Basketball Coach Geno Ford understands the importance of private support to public education. Ford is a contributor to the Centennial Campaign through his significant support of the Athletics Academic Resource Center, where student-athletes access tools and staff support to keep them moving toward graduation. It is his way of ensuring the Golden Flashes are defined by excellence both in competition and in their studies.
"Supporting the capital expansion of the Athletics Academic Resource Center was an easy decision to make," Ford, this year's Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year, says. "I knew I wanted to support an area with the greatest ability to make change in the lives of student-athletes, and knowing that every student-athlete uses the Academic Resource Center, it was the perfect area to receive my financial support."
It is easy to overlook the goodwill at the heart of every nonprofit organization, and that is why each spring the Annual Fund's Faculty and Staff Campaign provides a reminder of the ways Kent State employees impact students through private support. Kent State University serves the greater community by providing quality educational opportunities to those pursuing a college degree, and each member of the university plays a pivotal role in raising the quality of education that is delivered to students.
But through the annual campaign, faculty and staff deepen their university relationship through their contributions. These gifts can be directed to any area on campus donors wish to support, such as a department's scholarship fund, a college's dean's discretionary fund or an athletic program. Convenient payment options, like payroll deduction and monthly installments, are also available to ensure that the decision to give is a simple one!
Faculty and staff support is an important component of the Centennial Campaign — so far, more than 2,000 university employees have made commitments to critical initiatives from scholarships to student research funding to facilities. Your support can make a difference in students' lives and open the door to their future.
"Giving back is a family priority," Ford says. "It's crucial that our internal community supports our programs and various areas of excellence. If there is strong buy-in internally, it is more likely that our external audiences — alumni, fans and community members — will support Kent State as well."
Visit the Faculty and Staff Campaign Web site to learn more or to make your gift online.

I am in the camp that thinks we are on a course leading to nuclear annihilation. One plausible scenario is that Muslim extremists will release a weapon of mass destruction in an American city. The US will respond, against Muslims in general, by bombing Mecca or Tehran, perhaps using atomic weapons, and so it will go on.
Here are some possible suggestions that might head off such a future.
1. Start dumping huge amounts of money into secular education in the Muslim world. President Musharif asked the Bush administration for 300 or so million dollars to close down the madras's in Pakistan and substitute more a secular education system. The Washington Post reported that this did not "survive the White House budget process". What a missed opportunity.
2. Start actual propaganda against fundamentalist Islam. Drop leaflets on mosques, challenging literal interpretation of the Qurran. Point out that their claims are based on the same lack of evidence as all the religions they hate.
3. The US Senate should reaffirm the 1799 Treaty of Tripoli which stated that the US is in no way a Christian county.
4. Propose a treaty of religious toleration and started pressuring all countries to sign it. It should say that all countries will not discriminate against people of any religion, will protect religious minorities and apostasy, blasphemy, etc. cannot be crimes.
5. Much pressure must be put on Saudi Arabia to allow non Muslims to live in their country. Good symbolism would be to revive the Jewish community of Mecca.
6. Israel and the Muslim countries should enter a mutual "Law of the Return" agreement. In return for letting Jews to return and have full citizenship in Iran, Iraq, Arabia, Yemen, etc, Muslims would be allowed to return to Israel.
Other suggestions are welcome.

ELMWOOD, La. - On Wednesday, Laura Buchtel and Sheba Turk whipped through Winn Dixie on a ''Supermarket Sweep.' They collected items for a drive to feed seniors on Thanksgiving.
Thanks to their effort and donations by so many others, 1,500 meals will be delivered Tuesday to seniors across the metro area.
The meals were made from 450 pounds of turkey and consisted of low sugar and low salt options.
'We're so thrilled to partnering with Peoples Health to highlight senior hunger and the issues of senior hunger in our country and in Louisiana in particular,' said Natalie Jayroe of Second Harvest Food Bank.
One out of eight seniors in Louisiana is at risk for hunger, Jayroe said.
Second Harvest Food Bank helped 40,000 seniors with emergency food supplies in the past year.
Winn Dixie is responsible for between seven to eight million pounds of food a year, and $7,500 worth of produce, canned goods and ingredients were collected during the sweep.
The meals, which include turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, green beans, sweet potatoes, salad and pie, will be given to residents at seven Christopher Homes senior living centers.
It took two hours for Second Harvest and Peoples Health volunteers to make the 1,500 meals.
Other local organizations, including Greater St. Stephens Church and Cash Money Records, are participating in charitable efforts.
Greater St. Stephens Church is giving away turkeys Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Joy Theater on Canal Street. They are also handing out all the trimmings and gift cards. Organizers said there aren't any requirements, but everything is on a first come, first serve basis.
Cash Money Records is handing out 2,000 turkeys and sides at A. L. Davis (Shakespeare) Park on LaSalle Street on Tuesday. The 16th annual event is from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. There will also be free medical screenings.

The suspect in a fatal shooting over Labor Day weekend is being held under a $1 million bond.
Sherodnie Smith, 27, of Roosevelt Road in Jacksonville, appeared in court Monday morning at the Onslow County District Courthouse on an open count of murder connected to the fatal shooting over the Labor Day weekend of Tiaseer Rambert, 37, of Jacksonville. He was accompanied by his attorney Michael Surles, who asked for presiding judge James Moore to set a bond.
Assistant District Attorney J.B. Askins represented the state and asked for Smith to be given a $2 million bond, because of Smith's prior record and because authorities had to track him down despite the publicity of the case and the warrant for his arrest made days before his apprehension.
"They had to take him into custody rather than him turn himself in," Askins said.
Askins told Judge Moore that Smith was an absconder with an outstanding warrant for a post-release supervision violation.
Smith was released in July 2012 after serving six years imprisonment in North Carolina for attempted first-degree burglary and assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury in Onslow County. N.C. Department of Public Safety Spokesman Keith Acree said Smith immediately went to Florida, and didn't report to Florida's post-release program in November or December.
Acree said that when Florida authorities couldn't locate Smith, they reported him to North Carolina officials as an absconder — and that warrant was issued early this year.
Surles told the judge that Smith had his parole transferred to Florida because he had family living in the state.
"He communicated with his Florida parole officer that he desired at some point to return back to North Carolina," Surles said. "He informed me that the parole officer stated that it would likely not be a problem to transfer his parole supervision back to North Carolina. ... However, he misconstrued that statement as meaning he had the authorization to return to North Carolina without waiting on the transfer paperwork."
Surles said that explained why Smith had missed some of his appointments with his parole officer.
Smith had his parole hearing on Thursday, according to Surles, at the Onslow County Detention Center.
"The N.C. Parole hearing officer found probable cause that he violated his parole, so they are returning him to the Department of Corrections," Surles said. "To my understanding, he will have to serve a maximum of nine months on that parole sentence."
Askins said while Smith serves that time, the murder case will not be delayed.
"The case will proceed as normal," Askins said. "The only thing different is rather than the defendant being in the Onslow County jail, he'll be in the Department of Corrections."
Smith also has been convicted of burglary, assault, larceny, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, forgery and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to the N.C.D.P.S.
Members of Smith's and Rambert's families were both present in the courtroom Monday. Surles revealed to the courtroom that Smith and Rambert were childhood friends, making the situation even more tragic. Surles also told the judge that he was in communication with Smith before he was taken into custody. According to Surles, Smith intended to turn himself in, but never had the chance to do so because authorities found him just hours before he planned to do it.
"I spoke to him a few hours prior to him getting picked up at the hotel in Jacksonville," Surles said. "It was his intent to go to my office the same morning in order to surrender himself to the detectives."
Surles said authorities ended up following someone who knew him to the Triangle Motor Inn. Officers called Smith on his cellphone, and he walked out of his room and surrendered, according to Surles.
Surles told The Daily News Monday that Smith wanted to turn himself in because his "conscience dictated him to do so," and because he had received threats against his family and himself from people who were angry about Rambert's death. Smith wanted to keep them safe.
Monday, Surles said, "everybody has a right to defend themselves," and Smith wanted a chance to give his side of things.
"Looking equally at the records of both parties helps keep things in perspective," Surles said.
Rambert, according to the NCDPS, had been convicted for possession of a schedule II drug with the intent to sell; driving while intoxicated, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle; driving and operating a vehicle with a revoked license; assault on a female; larceny from person; going armed to the terror of the people; discharging a firearm into occupied property; and assault with a deadly weapon.
Detectives told the judge that no weapons were found in Smith's hotel room at the time of his arrest, and that Smith was cooperative during his apprehension. The detective also said no weapon was found at the scene, and Surles said it was his understanding it took authorities time to secure the scene before they could look for a weapon, due to crowd control issues.
Askins told The Daily News after the hearing that a significant bond was appropriate for the case.
"One million is a significant bond, but our position is that he is a danger. It's a serious case," Askins said.
Surles said he was appreciative the court gave Smith a secured bond, even though it is a large number.
"I don't think what happened in court today exceeded our expectations," Surles said.

Ailing Reuble shows her tenacity in Meadowdale's softball win
Starting pitcher tosses seven scoreless innings as Mavericks beat Terrace 1-0
Reuble pitched a complete-game two-hitter, striking out six while walking three for the Mavericks (2-0 league, 6-1 overall). She helped herself by delivering the game's only extra-base hit, a first-inning RBI double that scored Tiffany DeWayne, who had led off the game with a walk.
"Well, I think she (Reuble) did pretty good considering she has almost walking pneumonia," Mavericks head coach Dennis Hopkins said. "She's out there suffering with a viral infection in her chest so it's pretty amazing to go that long with that."
Reuble cruised through the first five inning giving up one hit and walking two, but the Hawks (0-1, 4-4) finally got to her in the bottom of the sixth. Lead-off batter Hannah Wilcox singled to center field, but it looked like Reuble would avoid trouble when the next batter Hannah Fickle grounded a ball back to her. Reuble tried to get the lead runner at second base and potentially start a double play, but her throw was low and rolled into center field giving the Hawks runners on first and second with nobody out.
She settled down quickly, getting Maddy Kristjanson to ground into a fielder's choice and Rene Bos to fly out to left-center field. Reuble walked Hannah Baisch to load the bases with two outs, but Kelsey Watson grounded out to third base to end the Hawks' biggest scoring threat of the night.
Mountlake Terrace coach Shannon Rasmussen was pleased with the way her team battled at the plate throughout the game.
"They had awesome at-bats," she said of her players. "They were right on it. We had a couple of the girls who fouled off six or seven pitches and kept battling till they got their pitch. (Reuble is) definitely one of the better pitchers we have seen this year, so I was pretty happy with how we hit her even not getting the big hits. We still found ways to get on."
Hannah Wilcox got both of the Hawks' hits in the game and finished 2-for-3.
Hopkins said after the game that Reuble began to tire in the late innings because of her illness and that he considered taking her out.
"We talked it over," Hopkins said. "Being a senior and this being a crosstown rival that they want to beat -- she wants to go out beating them. She wasn't going to come off that mound until we had to carry her off."
It was a rare occurrence to see the Mavericks' offense struggle the way it did against Terrace, but they got just enough. Meadowdale was led by Reuble, who batted 2-for-3 and was the only Maverick to have multiple hits.
"Today was not a typical thing," Hopkins said of Meadowdale's lack of hitting. "I don't know if it's just the fact that it's Mountlake Terrace and they are our crosstown rival or if it's just finally a sunny day and we get to play. We aren't used to seeing the sunshine when we play."
As dominant as Reuble was from the pitcher's circle, Mountlake Terrace starter Rene Bos was every bit as impressive. Bos pitched a complete-game five-hitter, striking out six and walking only one.
"The last two games she has just been on fire," Rasmussen said. "She has been getting her pitches right where she wants them and just working the count and been able to go right after the batters."
Though the Hawks lost, Rasmussen said that there is a lot of momentum to be gained from the way they played against one of the top Wesco 3A teams.
"I think it was a definite confidence booster," Rasmussen said. "This is definitely the best I've seen our team play. Our defense was great and Rene did an awesome job pitching, so it's a big confidence booster going into the rest of our league games."
At Mountlake Terrace H.S.

Grégoire Courtine:
The paralyzed rat that walked
A spinal cord injury can sever the communication between your brain and your body, leading to paralysis. Fresh from his lab, Grégoire Courtine shows a new method — combining drugs, electrical stimulation and a robot — that could re-awaken the neural pathways and help the body learn again to move on its own. See how it works, as a paralyzed rat becomes able to run and navigate stairs.

Stephen Cave:
The 4 stories we tell ourselves about death
Philosopher Stephen Cave begins with a dark but compelling question: When did you first realize you were going to die? And even more interesting: Why do we humans so often resist the inevitability of death? Cave explores four narratives — common across civilizations — that we tell ourselves "in order to help us manage the terror of death."

- Feel free to suggest poll ideas if you're feeling creative. I'd strongly suggest reading the past polls first.

This is something I don't understand. People whine and complain that they sit in front of a screen too much time. At the same time, they do nothing about it.
I, for one, wake up, play with my kid, take him and my wife out for a walk, then play some games until I go to work, where I eyeball monitors for 9 hours. I then come home in the dead of the night, play some more games, go to bed and start all over. During week-ends it's 50% of my waking time, the rest I spend with my family and friends.
Sometimes (read: rarely) I wish there were no screens to look at, and sometimes (read: rarely) I wish I didn't have to sleep at all, so I could spend more time in front of those screens. Apart from those moments, I am satisfied with what I do. It's my choice to live this life. When I'll stop liking it, I'll do something about it.
Re:60-80% but I wish it were 0% (Score:5, Insightful)
It's totally meaningless to me because sitting in front of a screen is both work and play, intellectually challenging and vegetative, social and non-social, in short many things that can be both fun and not fun and can be suited to fit my mood. It's like asking me how much of my waking hours I spend wearing pants and how I feel about them. Well, that rather depends on what I actually do not that I happen to wear pants while doing it. Or actually no this is a silly analogy, yes to more pants-less activities.

I wouldn't call looking things up that TV makes you think of being distractable, it's being active instead of passive. It's a good thing, looking up other sides to a news story, doing a quick Wikipedia safari on something that comes up that you don't know about, it's all much more intellectually demanding, and enriching, than just sitting there vegging out in front of the tube.
And man, now I'm old. I'm calling the TV the "tube". I used to look at my grandparents/parents funny when they called the microwave the "radar range". Crap.

Another Jesse James mistress has been discovered and this one has hired power attorney Gloria Allred!
RadarOnline.com learned exclusively about the existence of Mistress Number 4 and that the as-yet unidentified woman has hired Allred, who famously represented Tiger Woods' mistress Rachel Uchitel and others.
The new mistress had a several year affair with James, she charges, that ended just recently.

And yes, there's proof. Hundreds of text messages, emails and photos.
Poor Sandra Bullock. With every passing day her husband is exposed to more and more cheating charges as the actress has sought anonymity while trying to sort out her life.
PHOTOS: Sandra Bullock's Early Years in Hollywood
And It's only fitting that Allred is now involved as James is now facing the same type of firestorm that engulfed Tiger Woods, devastated his wife and derailing his golf career temporarily.
Allred told RadarOnlne.com exclusively: "I represent a beautiful model and businesswoman. She had a three year intimate relationship with Jesse James.

"He pursued her and had strong feeling for her. She is in the process of trying to decide if she will come forward. She has proof of their relationship including hundreds of text messages, emails and photos. The relationship JUST RECENTLY ENDED after the scandal broke."
Allred reportedly represented another woman whom sued James several years ago for sexual harassment, Allred had no comment regarding that case. Allred tells us mistress #4 hasn't been identified by the media.

Navy family celebrates Dad's return for Christmas
After long deployment, Navy family finds joy in daily life
Dan Bates / The Herald
Alana Chicocorrea, 7, glances up from her homework, Thursday night, and sees her dad in the kitchen with her mom and sister and brother. For this second-grader at Pilchuck Elementary School, the joy of Christmas clearly arrived on a ship this year.
Dan Bates / The Herald
Anuhea, 3, mixes blueberry muffins as her sister, Alana, 7, and their dad, Miguel Chicocorrea embrace, while mom, Shayanne Chicocorrea, prepares dinner. Three days after their reunion at Naval Station Everett, the Chicocorrea children are still making up for the nine months dad was away.

After hours of waiting, the Chicocorrea family, Alana, 7, Anuhea, 3, Shayanne and Kainoa, 12, finally see their father and husband, Miguel, walking toward them from the USS Nimitz on Dec. 16 at Naval Station Everett
It's the first vacation they have had together in more than a year, owing to Chicocorrea's recent 262-day, 80,000-mile deployment aboard the USS Nimitz.
Nine days ago, the aircraft carrier returned home to Naval Station Everett after nine months away. Chicocorrea's youngest daughter, Anuhea, turned 3 that day. Her daddy's return was her favorite birthday gift. And her big smile was his treasured homecoming present.
Today, his presence is the best Christmas gift for all of the Chicocorrea family, including son Kainoa, 12, daughter, Alana, 7, and wife, Shayanne.
Shayanne and Miguel, now in their early 30s, met in her home state of Hawaii when he was stationed there. He joined the Navy right out of high school in Los Angeles and has been climbing his way up the ladder of enlisted ranks ever since. During that time he also earned a degree in elementary education. Someday he would like to be a kindergarten teacher.
For now, though, he works the dangerous catapult job on the bow of the aircraft carrier's flight deck. Among his previous deployments were joint special forces missions to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Chicocorrea has been away for many a Christmas. While he was in Afghanistan, he often went a month or more without even talking to his family.
The homecoming in Everett on Dec. 16 was a special one for the family.
That morning, Shayanne loaded up the kids at their home in a Navy housing neighborhood in Lake Stevens and drove to the base. They waited three hours in the sunny December chill for Daddy.
A sign held by Alana read, "Hip, Hip, Hooray! Daddy's Coming Home Today!"
Anuhea ate a candy cane she got from Santa Claus, who visited with all the Navy kids waiting on the pier. She waved four American flags her mom had picked up from the Naval Sea Cadet Corps and drank hot chocolate served by the Lakes Stevens American Legion Post 181.
"We're still not used to the cold," Shayanne said. "We miss Hawaii."
They laughed at the sea lions barking and swimming just off the pier.
Anuhea danced to the Navy band playing nearby.
Kainoa talked about challenging his dad to games on Xbox.
Alana recalled a time that was especially hard during the deployment. She would clutch a pillow her mother had embossed with a photo of Daddy. A visit to Woodland Park Zoo and horseback riding with other children of deployed sailors made it better.
Shayanne's mother came to visit for a couple of months during the summer.
"It took time away from being lonely," she said. "It helped a lot."
The noon sun was already low in the sky as the ship tied up to the pier. With one hand Shayanne shielded the glare from her eyes. In the other hand, she held her cell phone close and waited for her husband's call.
Finally, it rang.
"He'll be carrying a box of wine he bought in Italy," she said. "Start looking for him."
On board, Chicocorrea gathered up his heavy duffle bag, the wine box, a bag of gifts from each country he visited and a rose for his wife.
"I had to show my ID before getting off," he said. "I thought, 'Are you kidding me?' I looked and looked for them. Finally, I saw Shayanne."
Anuhea jumped into her daddy's arms. He's been gone most of her life so far.
"Are we going to have a birthday party today, little baby?" he said.
Shayanne cried and kissed her husband. The other kids grinned.
"Look how tall you are," he said to Kainoa and Alana.
Back at home, the welcome home signs are tacked to the front window. The four American flags are mingled with the holiday decorations on the porch.
Presents are lined up beneath a big Christmas tree. The family room is cozy. Miguel relaxed and talked about feeling down during the deployment, and about encouraging the young sailors aboard the Nimitz.
"The 18- to 21-year-old bunch is the heart and soul of the Navy," he said. "Without them we can't get it done. For many, though, it's their first time away from home. You have to mentor them with tough love and figure out what motivates them. I tell them to pay attention, be respectful and be on time."
"I have sad days, too, especially when it's hot on deck and the days are long," Miguel said. "The flight crew cheers me up. We man up and we do it."
During the past week, Chicocorrea has enjoyed the simple things: Driving his older kids to school. Walking with Anuhea to the mailbox. Sipping hot coffee with his wife.
