Dream big, Anne tells aspiring singers
Anne Curtis is still in a state of disbelief after filling the Big Dome to the rafters for her first major concert last month. Would she do it again? "My dream was just to have a concert and na-fulfill ko na 'yon," she beams. "Although may world tour pa 'yong concert, we will bring it to Cebu first. Let's see how it turns out. But a repeat in the same venue, baka 'di ko na kaya (laughs)."
What's her advice to aspiring singers who, like herself, are not exactly blessed with strong pipes? "Dream big," she quips. "My dream came true even if I wasn't a professional singer. So I want to inspire people to pursue their dream, too. Attitude and determination lang 'yan."
How did she and boyfriend Erwan Heussaff spend Valentine's Day? "He cooked dinner," she says. "Then we watched Audrey Hepburn movies."
Does she see herself spending the rest of her life with Erwan? "I really hope so," she says. "I've never felt this happy and peaceful. But as of now we have no marriage plans yet."
As the new endorser of Century Tuna Flakes turned another year sexier last February 17, what lessons in life and love has she learned? "To practice the art of deadma," she says. "Let go of any negativity. Always find time for love, no matter how busy you are. It's all a matter of balancing work and love."
Anne's got her hands full, and her heart runneth over as well.
Getting there
Just like Anne, Derek Ramsay is Century Tuna's Super Bod. Will he soon give his body, heart, mind and soul to Angelica Panganiban in marriage? "We've been together for five years now," he muses. "And as they say, when a couple survives the critical first five years that's a good sign. So I guess we're on the right track and we're getting there."
Ah! The itch to get hitched. Derek and Angelica's love has truly made them scratch beneath the surface and find joys their hearts had never known.
Pinoy twist
We gave Star Cinema's "Unofficially Yours" a "B" rating at the Cinema Evaluation Board. Although the movie was patterned after the Hollywood films "Friends with Benefits" and "No Strings Attached," it has a Pinoy twist to it, thanks to Angel Locsin and John Lloyd Cruz's talent and charisma combined. They have such great chemistry, I almost forgot Angel has Phil Younghusband and Lloydie has Shaina Magdayao.
Angel is in full bloom in the film even with minimal makeup. Lloydie has truly mastered that "little boy lost" portrayal. The supporting cast blended well, too.
The romance
Didn't Phil get jealous of Lloydie because of all those steamy love scenes with Angel? "Phil is very supportive," Angel says. "He knows the theme of our movie so he understands the need for intimate scenes."
Would she go for casual relationships, as her character in the film does? "For me, relationship and commitment are inseparable," she explains. "You cannot have a successful relationship without committing 100 percent to your partner. 'Pag wala, nandyan 'yung tampuhan at magkakasakitan kayo."
How's that for a post-Valentine thought? Commit or omit!
Chefs in action
I'm super excited about Goldilocks Cake Deco Expo on February 26 at the SMX Convention Center. My good friends Dingdong Dantes and Alan German say this one will be better than ever.
As a certified foodie with a sweet tooth, I really look forward to watching the country's top pastry chefs in action. Highlight of the event will be the seventh installment of the Intercollegiate Cake Decorating Challenge a la "Iron Chef."
Dong tells me there's a top-secret twist to this year's competition, and I can't wait to find out what it is.

More durable than other squeak toys
posted 7 years ago
This held up longer than any other squeak toy, but eventually the tails were chewed off. I will certainly purchase another as it did last a good while.
Pros: held up pretty long
Cons: tails are good to chew off

52 Hoover Gangster Crips
The West Side (W/S) 52 (or "5-Deuce") Hoover Gangster Crips are an active and long standing African-American street gang founded in the western region of South Los Angeles, California. They originated around 52nd Street and Hoover Street, between Vermont Avenue and Figueroa Avenue during the 1970s. Also known as "The Young Hoggs", the 52 Hoovers are a sub-set of the larger Hoover Criminals umbrella gang. Throughout the 1980s, this gang, along with the 74 Hoover Criminals Gang, were key players in the drug trade business, operating drug houses across South Central, Los Angeles which Authorities estimated were earning them as much as $500,000 to $1 million dollars annually at the time [1]. The 52 Hoovers are the only Hoover Criminals set still identifying themselves as "Crips", retaining their Gangster Crip identity by maintaining their close relationship with the Eight Tray Gangster Crips, 51 Trouble Gangster Crips (known as the "51-2" or "51-Deuce" alliance) and other adjacent Tray (3x) gangs who share common enemies with The Hoovers. Members of the 52 Hoover Crips still sport traditional blue apparel associated with the Crips along with orange to represent their Hoover Criminals connection. They have been linked with other Tray(3x) gangs such as the Eight Tray Gangster Crips, 52 Broadway Gangster Crips to the east as well as the 53 Avalon Gangster Crips. They are rivals of all Neighbor Hood Crips, in particular the Rollin 30s Harlem Crips, Rollin 40s Neighborhood Crips, Rollin 50s Neighborhood Crips, Rollin 60s Neighborhood Crips, 46 Neighbor Hood Crips, 48 Neighbor Hood Crips, 67 Neighbor Hood Crips, the 59 East Coast Crips and the 65 Menlo Crips. The 52 Hoovers are also rivals of the Fruit Town Brims, Van Ness Gangster Brims and the Harvard Park Brims. By the late 1980s, the Five-Deuce Hoover Crips had over 1,000 active members on the streets of South Los Angeles. Although their numbers are not as large today, they are still considered a serious criminal threat due to their brutal nature.

Security Tapes Show Supermarket Glutton Stuffing Himself
By editor
Good morning, I'm Steve Inskeep.
We do not know if Trevor Runyon will like the food in jail. But at least, by the time he got there, he was very well fed. Police say Mr. Runyon slipped into a supermarket and waited for it to close. Surveillance cameras show he then had a feast. He cooked and ate six steaks and washed them down with beer, shrimp and birthday cake. Once he was done, police found him hiding in the ceiling and 57 empty whipped cream cans were in the trash.

I didn't know about Harfbuzz, good to see somone is hard working on the desktop convergence!
Static linking is not the solution. Experience shows it only leads to many forks of the same code that bloat memory usage and increase maintenance.
I totally agree. Did I give the impression of thinking otherwise? By the way, Apple banned static linking with libc and other system libraries in OSX a long time ago. The rationale is somewhere in their knowledge base and it's pretty straightforward. So I think we should follow up and do the same on Linux too. -- // Bernardo Innocenti \X/ http://www.codewiz.org/

A man threw ink on Sahara chief Subrata Roy, who was being produced in the Supreme Court on Tuesday after his arrest last week.
After the incident, the accused claimed to be a lawyer Manoj Sharma was beaten by the lawyers and was later detained by the police.
"I fight against the people who dupe the common man of his saving. He (Roy) is a thief of the poor," said Sharma.
Roy was brought to Delhi on Monday night after an overnight halt in Agra.
The order to arrest Roy was issued on February 26 after he failed to appear in connection with a case in which his company was directed to return Rs. 20,000 crore to investors.
Roy surrendered last Friday and was arrested by the Uttar Pradesh Police.
He was lodged in a guest house of the state forest department at Kukrail in Lucknow after a local court directed the state police to keep him in its custody till March 4.

Japan Marks Third Anniversary Of Devastating Earthquake
Tuesday, March 11, 2014
Three years ago today, an earthquake and tsunami left nearly 19,000 dead, destroyed coastal communities and triggered a nuclear crisis at the Fukushima Power Plant.
Today, 270,000 people are still displaced from their homes, including many in the area around the plant. Some of them will never be able to return to their homes because of radioactive contamination.
As he marked the anniversary of the disaster today, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe pledged to boost the rebuilding efforts.
The BBC's Rupert Wingfield-Hayes joins Here & Now's Jeremy Hobson to discuss the anniversary.

A European team is guaranteed to make the last four of the World Cup as Les Bleus take on Joachim Loew's men at the Maracana on Friday after both overcame African opponents in their round of 16 matches. It has been a difficult World Cup for many traditional European powers but the continent is assured of at least one participant in the semi-final with France facing Germany at the Maracana on Friday.
It is a fixture that immediately recalls memories of the famous World Cup semi-final clash between the sides in 1982, when Germany won on penalties following a 3-3 draw best remembered for Harold Schumacher's brutal challenge on French forward Patrick Battiston.
Germany are playing in their ninth World Cup quarter-finals in a row, but Joachim Loew's side have failed to impress in Brazil since their thumping 4-0 victory over Portugal in their opener. Last time out, they scraped past Algeria with a 2-1 win in extra-time that has prompted a huge debate back home over the team's performances, tactics and style. One crucial issue for Loew as he debates his line-up is whether to play captain Philipp Lahm in midfield or at right-back. Another is the poor form of the likes of Mesut Ozil and Mario Gotze.
The Germans should be boosted by the return of Mats Hummels after he missed the Algeria game with an illness that struck the camp, but Shkodran Mustafi is out of the tournament with a hamstring injury. In attack, Andre Schurrle is expected to start after scoring as a substitute against Algeria, while Thomas Muller will continue to lead the line, meaning Miroslav Klose will have to come off the bench if he is to break the World Cup scoring record. While Germany have looked exhausted after a gruelling schedule that included group games in the north, France come into the clash as the fresher side after beating Nigeria 2-0 in the last round.
The French were unconvincing in the last 16 but have played some slick football during the tournament, with Didier Deschamps intelligently using his attacking options. The stage is set in this last eight clash for Paul Pogba to show why he is considered one of the best midfielders in the world at the age of just 21. The Juventus man has been inconsistent so far in his first World Cup but has shown flashes of his match-winning ability and scored the crucial opener against Nigeria. Mamadou Sakho is fit after a hamstring problem but may not regain his place in the side after Laurent Koscielny impressed against Nigeria as Les Blues kept a cleansheet. Deschamps has tinkered with his team in previous matches but the only anticipated change is the introduction of Antoine Griezmann for Olivier Giroud after the Real Sociedad winger added a much-needed zest to France's attacking firepower as a substitute against Nigeria.
Fact File:
There have been 17 goals scored in the three previous World Cup meetings between France and Germany, an average 5.7 goals per game.
Germany have scored two or more goals in each of those World Cup matches and are unbeaten since their first World Cup clash with France in 1958 (3-6 defeat), winning in the 1982 clash on penalties (3-3) and winning in 1986 (2-0).
The two sides last met in a friendly in February 2013. France took the lead through a Mathieu Valbuena strike in the first half, before second half goals from Thomas Müller and Sami Khedira secured the victory for Germany.
Germany have reached the semi-finals of the last three World Cups. No nation has ever made the last four in four successive tournaments.
Germany are unbeaten in 15 internationals (Won-10 Drawn-5), longer than any other side still involved at the World Cup.
On the last five occasions that France have progressed past round 1 in the World Cup, they have reached the semi-final stage (1958, 1982, 1986, 1998 and 2006).
All of France's goals during this World Cup have come from inside the box (10).
France have lost only one of their 10 games played on Brazilian soil (Won-6 Drawn-3).
France are the first team to benefit from two own goals in the same World Cup.
Les Bleus have hit the woodwork more often than any other team at this World Cup (6), which is the highest tally for a team since Poland and Argentina in 1982 (both 6).
Thomas Müller (four goals, two assists) has been directly involved in six of Germany's nine goals (66.7%) at this this World Cup.
Karim Benzema (19) has fired in 12 more shots than any other French player during this tournament.
André Schürrle has scored five goals in his last five competitive matches for Germany.
Miroslav Klose needs one more goal to be the World Cup's highest scorer. He is currently joint-top with Ronaldo (15 goals).

Political correctness gone mad?

William Hague Calls Labour's Cathy Jamieson 'Stupid Woman' During PMQs. As you more than likely aware I have no love for politicians of any party but this sort of furore over this sort of stuff shows,to me anyway, the ridiculous society we now live in and the gutlessness of our MP's in that he felt it necessary to apologise.
I believe Michael McCann MP (Lab) Tweeted 'scandelous' which is another example of the pointlessness of Twitter in that it allows idiots a voice.
It seems it is impossible that anything said can be interpreted as to mean something completely different. There seems to be more and more limitations on what we can or cannot say.
Rather than what Hague said I am more concerned by the childish and rowdy behaviour of politicians on both sides of the house yesterday.

I didn't see PMQs this week, I haven't for a while but about two years ago I was in a position to see it live most weeks and I was amazed at the way it was ok for politicians to be quite scathing, even personally, about each other but suddenly one person was in the wrong and had to apologise and on one occasion that minor MP (who was probably considered out of the pecking order for debate) had to apologise for trying to debate a political issue with another party..... I don't think the standards expected of political debate are set in iron, stone, or anything else! It is just known to themselves... but I guess an expression of distaste which mentions gender, race or age could be considered going over the top, even in PMQs!

The whole Falkirk business has got Labour in a corner so it is no surprise they are clutching at straws to divert attention to something else.
Ask yourself if this would have been a row if a male MP had asked the question and Hague had mouthed 'stupid man'.
There is a growing problem with PMQs and it is John Bercow. He's trying to prove that all those who thought Mick Martin was poor didn't know what the word meant.
By the way, since this is about alleged misogyny, I noticed that Bercow called an awful lot of women. Far more than their proportion of the house justifies. I think this was Bercow's alternative to giving lines to the naughty men who do most of the shouting.

Err... I'm still not sure, is the objection/outrage to the word 'stupid' or is it the word 'woman' ? or maybe it's to inane mutterings in the House in general?

Had he mouthed the words 'stupid man' about a male MP I doubt that anyone would have thought twice about it.
It might come as a surprise to you to know that MPs are human, just like all of us - and like all of us they sometimes react to situations on the spur of the moment. The stupidity - if there is any - about all this is that anyone thought it newsworthy. Mind you, if you rely on the Huffington Post for news you'll never run out of stupid stories.

I believe that Charles said 'I can't stand that bloody man'. Fair enough, most of us can't stand somebody or other.
I've always failed to understand why so many people seem incapable of grasping the fact that celebrities, politicians, members of the Royal family etc., are human beings first, and famous second when it comes to reacting to their utterances.

32 Memphis City Schools teachers receive pink slips
90 tenured instructors begin appeals process
More than 30 city school teachers got termination notices Friday, and 90 more are awaiting tenure hearings as the district wraps up the first year of an intense new evaluation process.
District officials say fewer than 25 are in jeopardy based solely on their job reviews. The majority were cited for cause -- insubordination, neglect of duty or inefficiency -- and other reasons outlined in state law.
"Those things have always been in place. When forced to take action, it so happens that some of those teachers also had performance issues as well," said Tequila Banks, head of Teacher Effectiveness Initiative in Memphis City Schools.
Teachers not invited back for cause or poor performance will be added to a state do-not-hire database for teachers. The list also includes teachers who may have realized they weren't meeting expectations and resigned during the year.
The list is an indication of how serious Tennessee has become about rooting out poor teachers. And Memphis is the case in point.
It has rarely, if ever, recommended so many teachers be let go in one year. Last year, it recommended 60 be terminated; 41 were let go.
"I think it will be interesting to see how teacher evaluation results are viewed across the rest of the state," said John Barker, MCS chief of staff.
"In very real terms, we have already had that important conversation..."
Friday was the deadline to notify nontenured teachers, and 32 were let go. Principals initially recommended 43 not be invited back. Eleven cases were overturned, either for lack of documentation or procedural errors in the evaluation.
Banks and district staff stress that the evaluation is designed to help administrators identify teachers who need help and is not meant to be punitive.
"Considering we have 7,000 teachers, and given there were 32 upheld on appeal, it seems the process worked," she said.
The process for terminating tenured teachers is more arduous. The union has submitted 50 appeals on behalf of these teachers.
"Teachers have to write down their side the story. That was submitted to the principal," said Memphis Education Association president Keith Williams.
"The principals write their side and both are forwarded to labor relations. They read all the documentation to determine if terminations will be upheld.
"If labor relations upholds the dismissal, there must be a tenure hearing. They can drag on for months," Williams said.
This is the first year Tennessee school districts have been able to rate each teacher on a multi-measure scale that includes student achievement and principal observations of the teacher's classroom.
Many districts, including Shelby County Schools, have said they do not intend to make personnel decisions based on the scores.
Memphis, from the beginning of its work with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in 2009, said it would.
This spring, it announced 1,200 teachers scored either a one or a two out of a possible five points. Many were tenured teachers with years of experience and advanced degrees.
Under union rules, they are difficult to terminate. New state laws change the outlook dramatically. Now, teachers must score a four or five by their fourth year of probation or exit the profession in Tennessee.
The evaluation process for judging fitness has been controversial statewide. One of the biggest concerns is that more than a third of a teacher's score is derived from student test scores, but only a fraction of teachers teach tested subjects.
State leaders decided those teachers would take the school's average test score for their evaluations. That can mean teachers are graded on the performance of students they may never have even met.
Monday, the State Collaborative on Reforming Education, a consortium founded by former U.S. senator Bill Frist, agreed the process was unfair and suggested the state Department of Education put more weight on classroom observation for those teachers.
From the beginning, Banks said, MCS pledged to work with teachers to find the fairest evaluation process.
"We are keeping that commitment. We are trying to identify appropriate measures for teachers in nontested subjects."

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- A Good Idea, a volunteer organization which is a vehicle for positive social change ideas in San Francisco, plans to give $100,000 to Haiti earthquake victims if the organization is selected as the winner of the Chase Community Giving contest sponsored by JPMorgan Chase & Co.
"While A Good Idea focuses on homelessness within the Bay Area, we feel that it is of the utmost importance to contribute to the people of Haiti," said Jared Paul, Founder and Executive Director of A Good Idea.
A Good Idea was among 100 small charities out of 500,000 eligible nationwide to garner enough Facebook votes to receive a $25,000 grant as part of the Chase contest. Entering the second round of voting on Friday, January 15, A Good Idea will give $100,000 of their winnings if they are able to earn enough Facebook votes to propel them to the top spot in the contest.
"We are grateful for the opportunity to make a difference in Haiti," said Paul. "By connecting people in need with people that want to help, our organization has the ability to offer courage and support."
In two years, A Good Idea has built a strong following of volunteers and produced a string of impactful community service events in the San Francisco Bay Area. The group recently attracted national attention for its 24 Hours of Service Event, which included distribution of goods to the homeless and other civil outlets. Gaining nationwide notoriety for their work,

Karen Plants wanted to hide a paid informant's identity and role in a 2005 drug bust.
Karen Plants -- the former top drug prosecutor for Wayne County who was arrested and jailed in a perjury scandal -- has been disbarred.
The state Attorney Discipline Board ruled that a two-year suspension was inadequate punishment for her use of false police testimony in a major cocaine case.
In a 48-page decision released late Tuesday, the board said the legal system cannot tolerate lawyers who "intentionally procure or countenance false testimony, even for a purpose the lawyer may consider justifiable."
Plants used false testimony from two Inkster narcotics investigators to hide the identity and role of their secret paid informant in a 2005 drug bust. Plants pleaded guilty to a felony, and the officers pleaded guilty to misdemeanors. The felony trial of Mary Waterstone, the now-retired judge in the case, is on hold pending appeals.
Since her arrest, Plants has been doing social work with Cass Community Social Services in Detroit.
Initially, Plants' law license was suspended for two years, but the Attorney Grievance Commission, the state's legal watchdog, appealed that as too lenient. The Attorney Discipline Board agreed and revoked her license.
Plants' lawyer Kenneth Mogill declined to comment Wednesday on the decision.
There are two potential paths open to Plants if she wants to regain her license. Under state rules, a disbarred lawyer can apply for readmission after five years, but has to appear before a fitness panel and retake the bar examination. The disbarment also can be appealed to the Michigan Supreme Court, but only with the court's permission.

Ashok Leyland registered a turnover of Rs. 2,363.81 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, against Rs. 3,026.89 crore in the same quarter in the previous year.
However, the company's cost control measures have helped it remain positive on the EBIDTA front. The company sold 14,900 vehicles during the quarter against 20,239 vehicles with domestic volume at 12,960 units (17,335), reflecting a drop of 25.2 per cent over the year-ago period.
Sales of the company's successful small commercial vehicle 'Dost' stood at 6,824 units (7,248 units). Volumes from international operations stood at 1,940 units (2,904 units). The loss from operations before other income, finance costs and exceptional items, stood at Rs. 71.92 crore against a profit of Rs. 151.45 crore.
There was a net loss of Rs. 141.75 crore in the first quarter against a profit of Rs. 66.95 crore in the year-ago period.
Apart from a drop in volumes, heavier discounting of vehicles to compete in the marketplace further eroded profits, the company said in a statement.
Addressing shareholders here on Tuesday, Vinod K. Dasari, Managing Director, said "Although the entire commercial vehicle industry has had a very tough year, we have remained focussed on being future-ready by staying committed to our product development, network expansion and cost control programmes".
"Although the market is still very volatile, there are some green shoots showing.
"However, while we cannot control the market, we are focussed on preparing ourselves for a revival which is bound to come hopefully sooner rather than later,'' he said.

It has been so very long since I have blogged! Thankfully, my wedding and event business has kept me so busy it's been almost impossible to do anything else but take extra special care of my brides!
Recently, I collaborated on a styled shoot and open house to market a gorgeous new venue in North Georgia called 2400 On The River. Styled by the uber creative Blue Eyed Yonder, and shot by an incredibly talented professional, Vue Photography, gave way to landing in one of the publications I have had on my bucket list..Weddings Unveiled!
I recall the afternoon I received the images in my Dropbox file and truly wept with satisfaction and pure joy!
Designing usually comes from a vision in my head which hopefully will transpose through the eyes of the client or the lens of the photographer. When it happens, it is MAGICAL!!!! Most of us as professionals constantly reach for higher goals for ourselves. Learning anything and everything new in my industry is not only exciting, but definitely challenging. The day I am unable to learn anything else is the day I lay down my flower cutters and walk away. I always want to remain teachable and open to the next new thing. The professionals in my circle are so very generous with their knowledge and talents, which is ever so refreshing in comparison to other groups I have come in contact with throughout my 14 years of creating. There is more than plenty of work to keep all of us busy and succeeding! I don't see my peers as competition, but as companions on a similar journey. Some days they reach back and pull me forward and other days I do that for them. Kindness in this crazy business is like food for the hungry…completely necessary!!
I love what I do and do what I love ….following my passion is not only a blessing, but the reason I enjoy my work and all of my clients so very much! I am humbled and honored for this feature in Weddings Unveiled Fall 2014 publication! Once again I learn that hard work and perseverance does pay off!!

There are hints of Bond's personal past here, and the specific instance of this reveal is going to surprise you.
Update: We've also got some new images from the Spectre shoot in Mexico City, which is going on right now.

Longtime Giants fan, who measures his memories in baseball trivia, shares stories
On a recent Monday morning, still grinning after Game 4 of the World Series the previous night, Arthur Freddolino walked out to his mailbox with a broom and a sign.
He was perhaps the only Giants fan in Fallbrook to assemble a victory shrine in front of his house when the San Francisco team swept the Detroit Tigers. The shrine stayed there for a week, reminding anyone passing by on the rural lane that his team had done it again.
The Giants have been Freddolino's team since 1939, he told me when we sat down on Wednesday.
"When I was 8 years old, my mother said to me, 'Artie, do you want me to take you to the Polo Grounds to see the Giants play?' I remember we went on a Sunday in 1939, and they played the lowly Philadelphia Phillies, in eighth place," he recalled. "It was a double-header, and would you believe that the Giants lost both games to the Phillies?"
I told him yes, I could believe it, because that's what it's like to be a San Diego Padres fan.
Freddolino is a true New Yorker, born and raised.
He is 81 years old, and only just left New York, really, having moved from Yonkers to Fallbrook three years ago.
Back East, he was a custom-home builder who made money developing single lots, as property and housing near the city rose in value.
And he is a true storyteller. Frequently during our interview, he would interrupt himself to say things like, "You're gonna hear a lot about him" — referring to Willie Mays — in a thick New York accent.
For Freddolino, memories are measured in baseball trivia.
There was the 1954 title, the '51 and '62 pennants, and the final game at the Polo Grounds in 1957. He made the front page the day after that contest, having been captured by a news photographer in a tug-of-war over home plate, which he had uprooted with his bare hands a moment earlier.
One of Freddolino's favorite seasons was 1962. The Giants and the Dodgers had both left New York for California four years earlier, and at the end of the regular season, they would play a three-game tiebreaker for the National League pennant.
Game 1 was at the 'Stick, as Freddolino calls the storied San Francisco ballpark.
"I flew out here with no money — couldn't get cash, the banks were closed, no credit cards. They gave me credit on United Airlines, I remember that," and he flew out to San Francisco, he told me.
"I rented a car, turned on the radio, and the announcer was saying, 'Anybody want to get tickets to today's game, forget about it, because there are 2,000 tickets available and 10,000 people in line' — this was 1 o'clock in the morning at Candlestick," he went on. "I said, 'That's good odds, for me.'"
Fans were required to buy two tickets, and Freddolino found a lady "on line" who only needed one.

In the monthly meeting of the Ashe County Juvenile Crime Prevention Council, the board members were updated on Standardized Program Evaluation Protocol (SPEP) practices.
The update is being done before the board is presented with proposals by groups that want funding from the council to help juveniles in the county.
"(SPEP) is a tool that is used by programs to assess whether their program is matching the requirements in their research," said Linda Graney, a JCPC area consultant for North Carolina.
Graney said there were four major elements that SPEP research demonstrates reduces recidivism among youth. They are: the type of service provided, the quality of service provided, the amount of service and risk levels.
"Programs will be trained in the late spring or early summer to help assess risk youth to make a risk score," she said.
The JCPC chair Grier Hurley said the board will start looking at more evidence-driven programs to provide funding, which is provided mostly by the state.
"As times are still tough, (the state) wants to be assured that the money we are spending is helping the kids," Hurley said.
Graney said according to research, the most likely time for people to recivitate is within six months.
The SPEP project was initially developed at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn.
The programs will give their presentations at the JCPC's next meeting on Tuesday, March 25. The Board will then decide which programs to give funding to at its April meeting.
Each group submitting a proposal will present a presentation lasting between 5 and 10 minutes, according to Hurley.
Of the groups the Ashe JCPC funds, the most recent addition was the PAIRS program three years ago. All of the groups funded have a SPEP with exception to Barium Springs, according to Graney.
In other action by the board:
• Council approved January minutes
• Received updates from different organizations used through the JCPC.
• Updates were given relating to monitoring reports. From the reports, recommendations were given to: Mediation, Project Challenge, PAIRS and Barium Springs.
• The next meeting of the ACJCPC will take place Tuesday, March 25.

Recent Biloxi Reviews
The BEST rental owners ever!
My husband and 2 toddlers met my mom, dad, little sister and Grandmother "half-way" between TX and GA. The afordability of the house really helped us go and explore all the neet things, like a gator farm with air boat ride, around Biloxi. The house was perfect for us! The 4 bedrooms were a ggod size and the master had plenty of room so set our Pack-n-play for the year-old. The kitchen had all the basics, inlcuding spong and soap. Just a little warning No dish washer but not a big deal for us. One of the bathrooms had a really cool antique style tub I loved. The towels were big and soft and I just can't say enough about the quality of the house and things in it for a privately owned rental home. The BIGGEST selling point for me was the review I read about the owners and the people that talked about how nice they were did not say enough! The owners were beyond nice and accomidating. We wanted some frest seafood and asked where a good maket was, and she said we could get it from her family. FIRST: They crab boiled blue crab for us, about a dozen, SECOND: We bought frest shirmp for a really good price and THIRD: we made a last minute decision to bring some shirmp home, ordered 10lbs, and they were great about getting it to us. Also the deposite was returned the day we left. I can't say enough about the owners and how great they treated us. I know we got the better deal not only in price but quality when compared to the rental condo's in the area. The house was perfect for us, and even though it might not perfect for anyone, as a renter looking around for a vaction rental; think of the quality service and hospitality of the people you will be working with, you can't find better!

BUCKHORN — State and city officials, along with the staff of the Buckhorn Lake State Resort Park, gathered at the park over the weekend to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Buckhorn Lodge.
The celebration stretched across three days with games, buffets, campfires, and a fun run, along with special events, including an employee reunion and music by The Piano Man, who treated guests to piano music from the 1950s.
At a press conference last Friday, Nan Gorman, Mayor of the City of Hazard, presented the lodge with a large, bronze plaque of the original ribbon cutting in 1964.
Park Resort Manager Greta Gay reflected on the lake's beginnings in 1954 and the opening of the lodge, noting that the park had been integral to the economy of Buckhorn and that people in the area were proud of its heritage and beauty.
"All the staff live right here," Gay said. "It's a wonderful place for them to work."
Gay said sometimes generations of families are represented in the park's workforce, as the children of staff workers often seek employment there. Visiting the park has also become a family tradition for many people, she said, with families holding regular reunions at the lodge. Gay continued, saying that families with ties to the lost community of Bowlingtown, which was removed in order to create the Buckhorn watershed and reservoir, return to the area three and four times a year.
"You just get a big, strong sense of family support from them," said Gay. "They say it's their home away from home."
Seasonally, Gay said the park welcomes between 20,000 and 30,000 people.
Elizabeth Whitaker, whose family has come to the park every year since it opened, said the park was indeed like a home, a place they simply had to visit.
"All of the workers here - all of my kids love them, too," Whitaker said. "My little girl would bring them a bouquet of roses, because she said they were her friends."
Elaine Walker, Kentucky's Commissioner of the Department of Parks, was also on-hand for the celebration. Along with the lodge's 50th anniversary, she said the state was celebrating the 90th anniversary of the Kentucky state park system this year.
"We've got 49 parks across the state, and one of the great things is that we are one of the 8 or 9 state park systems that do not charge entry fees," Walker said. "They do not charge parking fees. So, they were really designed to encourage the citizens to come out and enjoy the beauty."
And the incredible natural beauty of Buckhorn is one of the park's greatest assets, she said.
Walker listed many of Buckhorn's offerings, including boating, fishing, hunting, hiking, horseback riding, and camping. Buckhorn also has unique offerings, she said, such as equestrian camping.
"If you look at the fact that we've got this beautiful wilderness area, we're looking at expanding different adventure tourism opportunities," said Walker. "There are few places more perfectly suited to have those kinds of activities than Buckhorn."
Walker said the state was excited about the future of its parks, particularly Buckhorn, as they concentrate on accommodation upgrades, as well as an energy and water conservation program.
As the lodge staff cut their 50th birthday cake and perused historical photographs, Wayne Turner, the very first clerk employed at Buckhorn Lodge, stood by and reminisced.
"It was an interesting place to work," he said. "I'd like to see people come from other counties and states to see us."
He said that remains true to this day.
"They leave with a good feeling," Turner said. "It's just a beautiful place."

WILLIAMSON - Gary W. Davis Sr., a former police officer who lives on Buffalo Mountain, has thrown his hat into the political ring in hopes of taking a seat on the Mingo County Board of Education.
"With my education and work experience in the judicial system, I believe I am well qualified to represent all of the Mingo County citizens as your newly elected board member," Davis said. "I truly understand how important it is for of all our children to have a good education, and they need a good, safe, clean enviroment in order to succeed."
"My wife, Iva, and I were married October 25, 1969. We made our home in Cleveland, Ohio, from 1970 and moved back to Mingo County in June of 1974. While living in Cleveland, our first child, Brenda Lee, was born and I worked for a factory that supplied parts for the Navy called Bailey Meter Company," he said.
"While working for Bailey Mete,r I received a top-secret clearance from the United States Navy to be a mail carrier between the two factories," Davis said. "After working the day shift, I went to a police training school in Euclid, Ohio, four hours each evening."
Davis said his goal was to return to Mingo County and work in law enforcement to improve the judicial system.
"I was offered a job on the Cleveland police force and turned it down to move home to further my career in law enforcement in Mingo County." the candidate said. "I went to work for the town of Gilbert as a patrolman, then as Mingo County jailer, and then as a Mingo County deputy sheriff during Sheriff Tom Chafin's tenure."
"In June of 1984, I went to work for the town of Delbarton as a patrolman and was then promoted to chief of police," he said. "I served in that position for two years before resigning to start doing security and investigation work as a licensed private detective/investigator, which I did for 14 years. As a licensed investigator, I investigated criminal court-appointed cases for the court-appointed defense attorneys."
The Davises have five children, 10 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
"The children of this county are our future, and I ask for the chance to serve on the Board of Education to work hard to assure they have the best educational opportunities available," Davis said.

Sorry, after running BBSes and Forums for so many years some of the damned conspiracy theories I used to read are still coming out my ears, I still go back to being ORGANIZED.
If you open a thread in 2002 and no one posts to it, what GOOD does it do your server to open another, NEW thread in 2009 and post the same thing to it?
In fact, it would do you all some good to combine some threads into a good flow. I gave a good example awhile back. Looked up something on San Diego Sailing Academy. DIDN'T FIND anything. Not sure why the search didn't work, but it didn't. After doing a new thread with a question, I noted three old threads popped up.
The information in each one is EXACTLY the sort of thing I was seeking, didn't find it.
However, if all the threads are combined, there's a FLOW to them - and the data is in one place now.
But, I guess that's me.
I don't like to see the same crap rehashed in twenty threads myself. I prefer to see it all in the same thread.
