Bio and Links
I am an retired electrical engineer who got into family research a few years ago. Now am an adict on finding family history I live in Michigan, which itself is a font of history, and have found that my family were pioneers and have famous connections, much of which I hadn't known about. Taking pictures of headstones connected to the family has helped tidy up family relationships, since with the headstone dates, a person can go and look up old newspapers for more data. Along with some other sites like ancestry.com, findagrave is a nice way to leave some of that history to be found by others.

RE: Grocery Building
Hi, Jim! I so appreciate the message and great history. I took the liberty of enclosing a current day photo of the building thinking you would get a kick out of it––especially since you can see the hill where you once built forts. I'm pretty sure I know right where you mean. There's a small building there now (I think) but in many ways the hill looks the same.) I added this to George Saxon Danser Memorial as well, and will incorporate the history you discovered––tomorow I hope. Looking forward to writing to you and learning more about the sources you found and the red brick house on Grove Street I always called "God's House." Looking up at it from Petoskey and State, I thought it was in the sky. Many thanks!

Danser and The George Zipp Family
Hello, Jim.
George Saxon Danser owned Petoskey Wholesale Grocery Building, where George Zipp later had his lumber company, and then Dansers ended up across the street. (Opposite corner). was moved across the street in the late 1940s or 1950s,
I have not to date found any photos of the building. I think they should be here for both the Danser families and the Zipp families.
Here is what I have so far:
George Saxon Danser operated his company, Petoskey Wholesale Grocery Company, out of his block long three story brick building known by the same name. It was located on Petoskey, State, and Grove Streets. His building is listed on the National Historical Building Register.
At some time, Mr. Danser's business relocated across the street to 308 State, on the corner of Petoskey Streets, and also, became known as Danser and Company. It was eventually operated by Mrs. Danser's son, the late George W Danser. In 1969 it was sold to Frost-Pack (Sysco) Distributing Company.
Petoskey Grocery Company Building was added to the National Historical Building Register in 1986 - - #86002051)
Also known as George T. Zipp Lumber Company Building
616 Petoskey St., Petoskey

RE: Mathias Kruzel
Hi Jim,
Thanks for the changes. Appreciate it. Does get somewhat confusing trying to figure out some of the family when names are so differently spelled too.
As for Joseph and Josephine Kruzel, I will search around and find out more info on if he was married twice to two different Josephine's. Possibly she was married twice??
Thanks also for the many transfers of the families I requested in the past.
Will keep you posted when I find for info...

RE: Fabian Kruzel
Hello there,
I do not see Joseph's parent's listed in his obit.
The Sobleski son you are referring to was Joseph's daughter's husband. Catherine Kruzel married John Sobleski.
I found this on the LDS family search:
Name: Joseph Krusell
Age (Expanded): 45 years
Birth Year: 1845
Birthplace: Germany
Spouse's Name: Josephine Hoboski
Spouse's Age (Expanded): 45 years
Spouse's Birth Year: 1845
Spouse's Birthplace: Germany
Event Date: 21 Jul 1890
Event Place: Cross Village, Emmet, Michigan
Father's Name: Mathaias Krusell
Mother's Name: Francis Karamell
Spouse's Father's Name: Mike Mcdonnel
For Fabian's parent's it lists Matthew and Martha Karomel. So I am thinking her name must've been Martha Frances or Frances Martha????
Thank you for your reply.

RE: Mrs. Homer...etc
Thanks, Jim. I understand. I also enjoy the research and very much appreciate having you to consult with on our various departed friends in the Little Traverse Bay area. I believe the biography on Mrs. Homer was originally written by me prior to the discovery her biography already existed. I then deleted mine and sent the information to person who had originated her memorial, and he posted it for me. It would however be great to have more information about the family. They first came to my attention via a newspaper article sent to me about Mr. Homer. I vaguely remember the Emmet Lunch either through being their or from my ancestors recollections. Not sure. If you have additional information, i am sure the originator (Tom ?) would add it. He is good about such matters. Thanks again!

could a fuel pump still work, but have low pressure
1 Answer
CVO 11/15/2010Sometimes a fuel pump will not work properly if it is not given the proper amount of fuel needed to run adequately. Your vehicle's fuel pump relies on fuel running through it to cool and lubricate it. This information is from 2carpros.com.
Hope this helps and be safe.

Directed by Maryam Keshavarz. Starring Nikohl Boosheri, Sarah Kazemy, Reza Sixo Safai, Soheil Parsa, Nasrin Pakkho, Sina Amedson, Keon Mohajeri. (2011, R, 107 min.)
REVIEWED By Marc Savlov, Fri., Sept. 16, 2011
Atafeh (Boosheri) comes from a wealthy, artistically inclined family. Her scraggly brother Mehran (Safai) has just returned home from a stint in drug rehab, but, as soon becomes apparent, his addictive personality – once trained on the keys of the family's Steinway – continues to writhe and poison from within. Atafeh's best friend and first love is Shireen (Kazemy), an orphan whose left-leaning journalist parents died at the hands of the Iranian regime. Like seemingly everything else in Iran these days, even school is something to be concerned about, as CCTV camera follow the students' every move and the burqa-clad headmistress remarks on Shireen's "questionable character."
Simmering beneath the status quo, however, is a Tehran pulsing with vibrant youth. An early sequence follows the girls as they attend a clandestine house party, complete with a secret password, thumping bass, and ecstasy of all kinds. Keshavarz contrasts that with a seaside frolic-cum-idyll that includes a haunting vision of a burqa-clad woman surrounded by Speedo-wearing menfolk. This sort of female inequality – the sheer effort it takes to be feminine in a theocracy, and the risks thereof – is at the heart of Circumstance. Its sappy, melodramatic overtones – Bonnie Tyler not included – can be overlooked, as this is as much a political statement as it is a love story.

I never draw and i dislike when others do. I like to fully have the satisfaction of winning and allow an apponent that same satisfaction.
I never resign, leaving it for cowards!
That is a tough question. When should you resign? Some people hate resigning, but in some situations, you must know that you will lose. So what do you believe is the proper situation to resign? I personally think..
thats when i resign
When i am down material and my opponent has shown he knows what he's doing. Usually. I did resign against a player 500 pts above m, only to find out the move he was going to play would draw. When I pointed it out to him, he set the position up and we played it out 15 times, before I finally screwed up and lost.
I suppose this illustrates one of my points better than anything I could have come up with. It's only when when we get the notion that an opponent is obliged to share our notion of when to resign that someone who's done nothing more than play the game that both agreed to play becomes "some bozo".
How many games in Corus were played until mate? In open events that I play I never see anyone make a titlked player play until mate, when they see their position is hopeless and its just a matter of time they resign. Perhaps among beginners its common to play until mate but I have had even unrated players resign against me when clearly lost. Its pretty obvious to me who the serious players are here and who the bozos are . If the shoe fits......wear it.
I think the only time you shouldn't resign in a lost position is if the mate is obviosuly soon and if it's obviously clever and unique and fun in some way. And even then you should give your opponent an indication that you're letting them have a bit of fun. I know I hate to have my best ideas only be seen in analysis, sometimes it's worth seeing it on the board. But again, it has to be nearly immediate. No matter how good an idea it is, no one wants to sit and play long when there's clearly no point.
Do I know when to resign? Yes, usually about 4 or 5 moves in. :)
I don't resign until there is no more hope for a counterattack. Any chance to bring the fight to the other guy's camp could result in a blunder from him. I've won plenty of games where I was 2 pawns behind. If your opponent can win with such a small advantage, you'll want him to prove it.
No, I do not know when to resign.
If I'm playing a non-blitz (non-bullet) game, I'll resign if I blunder a piece in an even game... However, in a blitz, even If blunder the queen, I'll try to get into a stalemate situation by kamikazing my pieces and pawns until I have only the bare king left... It rarely works, but when it does, it makes it worthwhile.
Do YOU know when to resign?An obvious answer is: When it is your turn!Is that a joke? I answered it in a joking way. But there is some sense in that answer. It depends of the kind of game you are playing. If it is a blitz game it is in fact a good idea to resign only when it is your turn and NOT after you have moved. An example to illustrate what I mean: I played a blitz game where I put my queen at a place where my opponent could just take it with his queen. I then saw the blunder and pressed the resignation button right away. BUT my opponent had just pressed his move button a fraction of a second before I pressed the resignation button, so that I saw his move immediatly after I resigned. He moved a knight and now I could take HIS queen for free, if it wasn't for the fact that I had just pressed the resignation button. So in blitz games the answer is not a joke: You resign when it is your turn.But in on-line games (like correspondence chess) or in over the board games I won't make a set rule as to when to resign in regards to who's turn it is. I will just say that in most cases it will be when it is my turn. It will usually be at a point where the game is over, even it is technically not over since you can continue moving the pieces in a situation where you can really find no sensible way of doing anything, so the fight is finished.Thus the answer to the question "Do YOU know when to resign?" becomes: Yes, when the result of the fight is a loss and I find no further fight available, that would include that there is no "time trouble fight" available in the situation. But I won't always know. If there is doubt about whether to resign then I would continue.One's mood can play a big role, especially in a situation where you had a winning position and blundered the advantage away into a lost position, in which case you could be emotionally disturbed and could play out several moves while you calm down or before you face the fact. Other times you resign right away is such a situation without a proper evaluation of the position. Also: If there is just a couple of moves left before a check mate I will often let the opponent perform the mate.
I usually resign after I've played a move without thinking and naturally, it turns out to just hang a piece. I've also struggled to convert wins and appreciated my opponents playing on in these cases.
I just played a game where I was down R+Ps Vs. R+N+Ps, and thought I probably should resign here. A couple of minutes later I was down one pawn in a king and pawn endgame, and thought I probably should resign here. My opponent missed a couple of winning moves and ended up with my king in front of his rook pawn. I offered a draw, and let him know how he could have finished me off.
I hate to resign, but it is part of the game. We're not always winning, for me, I will resign if I think I'm not interested in the game, and sometimes I went to losing.
When I have no counterplay, and am just a punching bag.
Oh wait, then I would be resigning in EVERY game...
Make something out of nothing to prepare a counterattack.
Resign when YOU know you are hopelessly lost and can't learn anything from the position. Example, If I am playing a (total) newbie I don't expect him to resign even if I am up say, a queen and a rook, as they can learn by seeing how I finish the game the most efficient way to win.
However say I am up a rook in the endgame against an 1800 player. I do expect him to resign and would consider it rude if he spent a lot of time trying to fight the position,as he isn't learning anything except how to excessively prolong the game.
Never surrender ! LOL
I do resign many times, for example when I feel that I cannot play properly. Like today :D
But sometimes, feeling confidence, I do play even after losing Q+R, like in game bellow :
I think its stupid to say to yourself that you will resign if you are down a rook. This means that you will resign if you are down a rook, but you can try a last tactical trick, that will work if he's in a hurry, and you wont resign if your down a knight or bishop in an endgame like the one on the diagram?
I resign when i have a hopeless position, with no last tricks to try.
The answer to this is different depending on how strong a player you are and what level your opponent is at. Generally, the lower level the game the slower you should be to resign. Something that would be decisive in a master's game might be frittered away by a poor player like me. In low level play dramatic reversals can sometimes happen, as do outright tactical errors. Even if badly behind make the position as sharp and complicated as possible, create threats in multiple parts of the board, and once in a while the other guy will screw up and let you steal it. Not that often, but always fight it out. I generally don't resign until I can see a forced win, either a forced mate or a pawn promotion I can't stop, etc.
I will admit, that if it is early in the game and I have made an outright tactical blunder (dropped a rook with no compensation, or something equally stupid) I will usually just call a Mulligan, resign, and ask if they want another game.

2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin equivalents in tissues of birds at Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA
Rent the article at a discountRent now
* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
The environment has become contaminated with complex mixtures of planar, chlorinated hydrocarbons (PCHs) such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and structurally similar compounds. Because the potencies of individual congeners to cause the same adverse effects vary greatly and the relative as well as absolute concentrations of individual PCH vary among samples from different locations, it is difficult to assess the toxic effects of these mixtures on wildlife. These compounds can cause a number of adverse effects, however, because the toxic effects which occur at ecologically-relevant concentrations such as embryo-lethality and birth defects appear to be mediated through the same mechanism, the potency of individual congeners can be reported relative to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD) which is the most toxic congener in the PCH class. The concentations of 2,3,7,8-TCDD Equivalents (TCDD-EQ) were determined in the tissues of aquatic and terrestrial birds of Green Bay, Wisconsin by the H4IIE bioassay system and compared toxic equivalency factors (TEFs) with the concentration predicted by the use of toxic equivalency factors applied to concentrations of PCH, which were determined by instrumental analyses. Concentrations of TCDD-EQ ranged from 0.52 to 440 ng/kg, wet weight. The greatest concentrations occurred in the fish-eating birds. Concentrations of TCDD-EQ, which were determined by the two methods were significantly correlated, but the additive model which used the TEFs with concentrations of measured PCB, PCDD and PCDF congeners underestimated the concentrations of TCDD-EQ measured by the H4IIE bioassay by an average of 57%. This is thought to be due to contributions from un-quantified PCH, which are known to occur in the environment. Of the quantified PCH congeners, PCDD and PCDF contributed a small portion of the TCDD-EQ in the aquatic birds, while most of the TCDD-EQ were due to non-ortho-substituted PCBs. In the terrestrial birds, the proportion of the TCDD-EQ contributed by the PCDD and PCDF was greater.

Korean construction firm completes Iglesia Ni Cristo's P7-B Philippine Arena
MANILA, Philippines—Leading South Korean construction company Hanwha Engineering and Construction (Hanwha E&C) said that it has completed building the Iglesia ni Cristo-owned Philippine Arena, which is said to be "the world's biggest domed performance hall."
According to South Korean media reports, a Hanwha E&C statement posted on its website on June 9 disclosed that the $175-million or about P7.65-billion indoor arena—built on a 74,000-square meter tract of land in Bulacan province—was completed last May 30, or after 30 months of work.
Philippine Arena has a seating capacity of 51,000, and boasts of a 35,948-square meter roof, which is also said to be the largest worldwide.
The Chosun Ilbo website quoted Hanwha E&C chief executive Lee Keun Po as saying that "[t]he dome arena, which requires a high level of expertise, will boost our efforts to enter the construction and civil engineering markets in Southeast Asia."
Besides construction, Hanwha E&C also took charge of designing the arena.
In 2011, Hanwha E&C secured the project after beating Filipino firm EEI Corp. as well as Chinese contractor Jiangsu International, the Korea Economic Daily reported on its website.
Established in 1962, Hanwha E&C has become a global engineering and construction firm through its forays in the Americas, Africa, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Southeast Asia, its website said. It is a subsidiary of South Korean conglomerate Hanwha Group, which is also into chemicals, life insurance, industrial machinery and technology systems manufacturing, as well as leisure and food services.
Philippine Arena is being prepped to serve as a highlight of the Iglesia ni Cristo's celebration of its centennial anniversary on July 27.

We use these at the shelter all the time. They help keep the smell at bay, but don't help completly because of the large space. They would work better in a smaller space like a laundry room or bathroom.
Pros: Helps disguise unpleasant odors
Cons: Not good for large spaces

Crabtree caps career year with Super Bowl berth
Michael Crabtree refused to remove the black 49ers beanie and reveal his hair. Nope, not going to do it.
Crabtree is trying to maintain every possible element of surprise he might still have left heading into his first Super Bowl - and will certainly take any advantage he can get this week.
Not that his `do has much to do with it. But this is Crabtree, quirky and superstitious, a guy still trying to shed that diva label he picked up as a college star at Texas Tech. It's something his San Francisco teammates are quick to dismiss, insisting that's not the case.
The dynamic, play-making wide receiver will be a primary focus for the Baltimore Ravens' secondary come Sunday at the Superdome. Crabtree is as dangerous after the catch as he is dodging defensive backs to make acrobatic catches or finding ways to keep both feet inbounds while tiptoeing the sideline.
''A lot of coaches can coach a route and how you catch the ball, but after the catch it's really all you,'' he said. ''That's what makes you special.''
No matter his catches or number of chances this weekend, Crabtree cares about only one thing: capping his career season with a championship ring. The fanfare and media frenzy, he'll take it or leave it (his voice was hoarse Wednesday from all the talking). He is still coming to terms with being a public figure, and the constant scrutiny that goes along with it.
Just last week, Crabtree learned he wouldn't face charges for an alleged sexual assault in a hotel after the 49ers beat Green Bay in the NFC divisional playoffs on Jan. 12. The San Francisco district attorney announced Friday there would be no charges ''at this time.'' The wideout was never arrested or detained, and police said he cooperated with the investigation.
''I was disappointed in the allegations,'' Crabtree said Wednesday morning, before heading off to practice at Saints headquarters. ''It's over now.''
Crabtree still carries a chip on his shoulder and is out to prove he should have been drafted higher. He held out for 71 days as a rookie before signing in October 2009 and becoming a starter less than three weeks later. He wouldn't change much about how things have gone so early in his NFL career.
After all, had he gone to the Oakland Raiders with the seventh overall pick that year - they selected Darrius Heyward-Bey instead - Crabtree would be watching after yet another losing season in the East Bay. The Niners grabbed him three spots later at No. 10.
''I watched him as a youngster, I watched him in college,'' Baltimore receiver Jacoby Jones said. ''When he came out and he held out, I was interested to see what he was going to do. He came in and I was like, `This kid can play.' I like his game. He's got great hands, great route runner.''
Colin Kaepernick sure thinks so. Crabtree quickly became the second-year quarterback's top target after he took over the starting job under center midseason.
Kaepernick's passes come so fast they require extra concentration and ''you've just got to focus at all times on his ball.''
''He does a lot of things well and he's a very physical receiver,'' Kaepernick said. ''He wants to get in the end zone every time he touches the ball. As a quarterback, that's something you love.''
Crabtree receives guidance from a couple of other characters who have dazzled at his position - teammate Randy Moss and former 49ers star Terrell Owens. Moss tells Crabtree like it is, on the field and off, while T.O. offers advice from time to time via text messages.
They've got a few things in common, too.
In the season finale against Arizona on Dec. 30, Crabtree caught two touchdowns and finished with a career-high 172 yards on eight receptions. It was the best outing by a 49ers receiver since Owens' 166-yard performance in November 2002. Crabtree, finally healthy for a full season after a series of injuries in his first three seasons, also became San Francisco's first 1,000-yard receiver since T.O. in `03.
If he and Kaepernick can keep their good thing going, Crabtree certainly has a chance at a championship.
''He's a great runner and he has great ability to make people miss,'' Ravens cornerback Cary Williams said. ''He's elusive. He's a guy that can put his foot in the ground and move and get to a different direction. He's having a great year and he's done some great things for that team. We look forward to the challenge out there of going against him.''
Crabtree keeps defenders guessing on every down with his big-play potential all over the field.
He finished with career highs of nine touchdowns, 85 catches and 1,105 yards this season. That included five TDs and 30 catches on third-down plays - both stats among the top five in the NFL.
Teammate Frank Gore describes his recent play as the ''Texas Tech Crabtree.''
Crabtree took it personally when the 49ers failed to reach last year's Super Bowl after a 20-17 overtime loss to the eventual champion New York Giants. San Francisco's receiving corps managed one catch for 3 yards that game. It was his reception, but hardly enough.
''I can't really pinpoint the things that Crabtree has picked up,'' Moss said. ''I just told him when I first came I really wanted to work, I just wanted to be out there with him to make plays for him. Michael Crabtree hasn't let me down, he really hasn't. Everybody has little stumbles in the road. It's great to see a person to overcome so many things. His whole 49ers career he's had some stumbles and hasn't been able to complete a whole season, but to go out there and make the plays he's made this year, my hat's off to him.''

Comic Countdown #65: The Trouble With Clones
Posted on April 14, 2013 AT 09:13pm
It's time for another Comic Countdown! In the sixty-fifth edition of the series, the Countdown will take a look at one of the staples of comic book culture, the clone. With so many superheroes around, it's only natural that at some point, the writers will run out of things to do with the character, and that a clone of them would be introduced and the story would get complicated. This is something that has happened many times over the years, and despite the ridiculous concept, it's something that has worked for quite awhile over the years. There are several major characters that have had this happen to them, and now it's time to take a look at a few of them. That means it's time for the Countdown!
#10: Fantomex (Marvel Comics)
Fantomex makes this list due to the concept of his own split personalities. While his story is pretty complicated (especially with his unique abilities and the existence of E.V.A, his sentient space ship, there are three versions of himself that result from the end of his run on Uncanny X-Force. After some complications, Fantomex splits into three separate entities: Fantomex, the evil "Jean-Phillipe", and the female version of himself, Cluster. This trio has their own odd relationships, but the odd cloned versions of this character make him a terrific addition to this list.
#9: Luke Taylor (Image Comics)
In a book with a name like Clone, there's good standing to think that clones will be somehow involved. Doctor Luke Taylor finds out that he's been cloned, and cloned often. This leads to a thrilling mini-series that leads Dr. Taylor on an adventure to stop the cloned versions of himself, who are after his wife and unborn child. This sci-fi mystery is a great look at clones as a whole, and while the concept of clones is a longstanding one, this one makes sure to use the concept well.
#8: The Flash (DC Comics)
The fourth Flash, Bart Allen, was the superhero Impulse before he took the mantle of the fastest man alive. Oh, he also has a clone named Thaddeus Thawne. Thawne was created with Allen's DNA with some other DNA mixed in, and a villain to the character was born. While he was initially a clone to the hero Impulse, he eventually became more of a Flash villain as Bart Allen took on the mantle.
#7: Deadpool (Marvel Comics)
Deadpool is one man that should never have a clone. Unfortunately, he has one, and the clone of Wade Wilson named Agent X (Alex Hayden) had a brief appearance in several issue ofDeadpool, even getting his own miniseries. Eventually the character faded out, but there are several very funny issues to attribute to the use of his character and his interactions with the Merc With A Mouth.
#6: Magneto (Marvel Comics)
Yes, Magneto had a clone as well. After the apparent death of the greatest villain in the history of the X-Men, a young man appeared in the lives of the team, unaware of who he truly was. Originally thought to be Magneto under amnesia or an insidious plot, it was eventually revealed that he was a clone of the Master of Magnetism who joined the team for awhile, eventually dying with the true version of himself during a massive battle.
#5: Apocalypse (Marvel Comics)
Another long-running clone in the Marvel Universe, Apocalypse has a short lived run as a clone in Uncanny X-Force. The aforementioned Fantomex had a hand in creating a cloned version of the First Mutant, incubating him in the virtual universe called "The World" and raising him to be a good person, which causes its own issues for the rest of reality.
#4: Wolverine (Marvel Comics)
Marvel has a bigger history with clones than it's DC counterpart, creating many alternate versions of their most beloved characters. This is the case with Wolverine and his female clone Laura Kinney, designated X-23. Created using Wolverine's DNA, she has his abilities and adamantium claws. While she was created from a damaged sample of the Berserker, she's gone on to be an integral character to the Marvel Universe, appearing in several series.
#3: Spider-Man (Marvel Comics)
Spider-Clones have been pretty common in the history of Marvel, but none have been as important as Kaine, the clone of Parker that would later go on to become the Scarlet Spider. Though he eventually wanted to kill his cloned self, Kaine eventually creates a name for himself as his own man and a hero in Houston, Texas. While not a perfect clone of the Web-Slinger, Kaine is just as formidable a foe as Parker himself, with some major variations on the suit and some of the things Kaine is able to do.
#2: Superman (DC Comics)
DC finally makes another appearance on the countdown, with a cloned version of the Man Of Steel showing his face. Kon-El, under the alias Superboy, is a clone made of an unknown source, the DNA of Lex Luthor, and the DNA of Superman. Having many of the hero's abilities, Superboy has become one of the most popular alternate versions of a character in comics, even spawning some other versions himself, such as the mentally unstable Superboy-Prime, who eventually became a major villain.
#1: Jean Grey (Marvel Comics)
While Jean Grey's clone, Madelyn Pryor, wasn't around for a huge amount of time (in comparison to someone such as the Scarlet Spider), she arguably had the most impact. After meeting, falling in love with and marrying Cyclops during her run in the comics, she was a lover, a friend, a mother, a corpse, demonically possessed and completely destroyed in a very short period of time. The mother of Nathan Summers (also known as the mutant Cable), Madelyn Pryor was huge in the grand scheme of things, making room for the return of Jean Grey and the evolution of Cable as a character in his own right.

A Hennepin County District Court judge has ordered the city to pay more than $500,000 in damages and attorneys' fees after finding that a City Council member's bias led to the denial of his proposal for a Loring Park development.
Judge Stephen Aldrich last year ruled that Council Member Lisa Goodman (7th Ward) failed to remain impartial during the review process of developer Brad Hoyt's Parc Centrale. The project would have been a 21-story mixed-use tower flanked by two-story town homes, but it was denied by a unanimous City Council in 2004. E-mails later surfaced showing Goodman had what Aldrich called "a closed mind" going into the quasi-judicial review process, where council members are supposed to make decisions based entirely on codes, not opinions.
Hoyt's attorneys said after the ruling that they would seek as much as $23.6 million in damages, because of projected lost revenue. They later decreased that to about $11.7 million, but Aldrich said he found their estimates to still be "highly conjectural" and "too speculative."
"Plaintiff's testimony was based solely on its own informal estimates and was wholly unsupported by contemporaneous documentation," the judge wrote in a memorandum accompanying his order. "Plaintiff conducted no feasibility analysis, had no agreement with a contractor, no lending commitment or other formal plan for financing, no excavation or building permits, no final building plans, no pre-sales, and no marketing plan."
As a result, Aldrich didn't order the city to pay for any lost revenue. However, he did find that the city was responsible for covering a number of costs Hoyt paid in the run-up to the council's decision, including application and architectural fees. Adding in attorneys' fees, that amounts to about $523,000.

Pension funds are ordered to recoup millions
A Hennepin County District judge has ordered two of the city's closed pension funds to take back tens of millions of dollars from beneficiaries they overpaid over the past decade.
The Minneapolis Police Relief Association and Minneapolis Firefighters Relief Association have until June 4 to decide how they'll recoup the money, according to a May 17 order from Judge Janet Poston. Ruling in November on a case brought forward by the city against the pension funds, Poston said they overpaid about $53 million between 2003 and 2009 and that their faulty payment calculations date back to 1999.
The recoupments, which Poston ordered to begin by July 1, will be put into a pot of money designated solely for future pension payments. While the order means fund beneficiaries will be losing thousands of dollars, it's good news from the perspective of the city, which will be relieved of some of its future pension pressures.
In 2009, as the economy shook, Minneapolis projected having to owe as much as an additional $155 million to the funds over five years — an amount city leaders said would have trickled down to major property tax increases. Poston's November ruling already saved the city about $10 million it would have raised through property taxes this year.
Judge seeks answers on Dolan, CRA
A Hennepin County District Court judge wants to hear why police Chief Tim Dolan chose not to act on several cases sustained by the Civilian Police Review Authority (CRA).
Judge Susan Burke set a court hearing in response to a February petition from then-CRA member Dave Bicking and Communities United Against Police Brutality, who argue that Dolan has been ignoring the law. From 2008 through the first three quarters of 2009, Dolan disciplined officers in only three of 25 cases brought forward by the CRA, which investigates police misconduct.
The chief, reappointed in March to a second term, has said that it's his prerogative to decide how much discipline is given in sustained CRA cases. During a public hearing related to his reappointment, he said one big reason there's no punishment after certain cases is that they simply arrive too late.
"If discipline isn't timely, it's not going to be fair," Dolan said.
The hearing is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. June 4.
Bicking in April lost a bid for reappointment to the CRA on a 12–1 City Council vote.
Law opens door for street food
Gov. Tim Pawlenty has signed into law a bill that lets food carts stay in one location longer than three weeks, a long-held limit that was one of the last major roadblocks for the city to overcome to expand street vending Downtown.
"It's a simple change that could be a big part of revitalizing downtown Minneapolis and, potentially, downtown areas of cities across the state," Rep. Frank Hornstein (DFL–60B) said in a news release. He co-sponsored the bill with fellow Minneapolis legislator Sen. Scott Dibble (DFL-60).
Combined with rules the City Council adopted in April, the law change should help the city begin to realize its hopes for a street-food culture akin to those found in Portland, Ore., and Milwaukee. Anybody with a licensed kitchen or a license to use a commons kitchen now can apply for a street-vending permit.
City spokesman Matt Laible said about eight potential vendors have sought out licenses since they became available May 1. The first carts should appear Downtown by mid-June, Laible said.

Iraq holding off on an offensive against al-Qaida
In addition to the 21 dead, at least 35 people were wounded, he added, and a hospital official confirmed the casualty numbers. Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but suicide attacks are the hallmark of al-Qaida's Iraq branch, known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
The recruiting center attack appears to be in retaliation for the military's response to the insurgency and an effort to dissuade potential new recruits from bolstering the Iraqi army's ranks.
It followed an attack late Wednesday by gunmen who struck at army barracks in Diyala province, north of Baghdad, killing at least 12 soldiers.
Al-Qaida militants, emboldened by their gains in the civil war in neighboring Syria, have sought to position themselves as the champions of Iraq's disenchanted Sunnis against the Shiite-led government, even though major Sunni tribes in Anbar and elsewhere oppose the group's extremist ideology and are, in some cases, fighting against it.
Sectarian tensions have been rising for months in the province as Sunnis protested what they perceive as discrimination and random arrests by the Shiite-led central government. Violence spiked after the Dec. 28 arrest of a Sunni lawmaker sought on terrorism charges and the government's dismantling of a year-old Sunni protest camp in Ramadi, the provincial capital.
Schreck reported from Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Associated Press writer Sameer N. Yacoub contributed from Baghdad.

The Reserve Bank of India on Friday left its policy rate unchanged at a three-year high of 8.5 per cent, noting that inflation was still above the "comfort level" but expected to abate in the coming months.
The pause comes after 13 consecutive rate hikes since March 2010.
Sending out a clear signal to corporate India and the markets about a possible reversal of its stance on raising rates, the RBI said: "From this point on, monetary policy actions are likely to reverse the cycle, responding to the risks to growth."
The central bank noted that while inflation remained on the projected trajectory, downside risks to growth clearly increased. It reiterated its statement in the earlier policy in October that "further rate hikes might not be warranted" as the growth momentum was moderating.
Retaining its option to raise rates again if inflationary expectations persist, the RBI said the timing and magnitude of further action would depend on how things panned out on the inflation and rupee fronts.
"It must be emphasised that inflation risks remain high and inflation could quickly recur as a result of both supply and demand forces … also, the rupee remains under stress," the policy statement said.
The central bank noted the decline in the overall economic scenario with GDP growth slowing to 6.9 per cent in the second quarter from 7.7 per cent in the first, and key deficit indicators worsening mainly due to higher expenditure and lower revenues.
Noting that liquidity conditions were tight, consistent with the policy intent, the RBI said it would conduct open market operations as and when it felt the need for it.

What if there is nothing wrong with the lyrics but the singer is not born again. For example religion songs but with nothing wrong in the lyrics
That is right to some extend because i am sure you have heard Pastor correct some songs on stage.
there are a lot . Some are bad confession and some are meaningless confession
For example
"Buruka buruka , buruka mweya. Ndiyende newe, ndinoda kusimba newe"
"Our days are from the almight, never desire to repent tommorrow you might be taken away before its time, you must work before it is day."
In fact in this type of music if you listen carefully in each every song there is at least one sentence that is not consistent to the word.
There is music that other people call gospel but its not. Gospel is good news meaning to say it blesses the one listerning not to instill fear, conderm, Judge etc. Thats why we have foundation school so that we understand how we do what we do, know what to do as members of the body of christ. If great men and women are made with words, that means the music lyrics ought to be spirit filled, life giving, bring joy to those seeking it and healing...
Knowledge is very vital to every christian
God bless you greatly
pastor always says all other ground is sinking ground.that foundation is quicksand papa.if he is not born again then his music is religionand therefore you cant opt to stay in religion when rchristianity is not religion.praise the lord .
I think as a Christians we should listen and play music from people of the same faith with us. I cannot listen to music from someone of lesser faith that mine.
A while ago, someone tried to take a cheap shot at me concerning the kind of music I listen to (gospel music of course).
He was aware that I didn't listen to their kind of music so he asked if I can boldly tell him that I don't listen to those sort of music. My response to him was simply this; "I hear the songs but they don't mean a thing to me." He never mentioned the issue again.
It's very important that we watch the kind of music we listen to. Even among the supposedly "gospel" songs. If the song does not tell the present truth of God's word as it relates to the gospel, then we don't have any business with it.
Music ministers to the spirit faster than a lot of people know.
God bless you.
Beloved!it was a puzzling issue to me as an individual.well, i thnk listening to any gospel music its ok!we are same birds
hey.. how would you know if the persons got a lesser faith than yours... i really wonder @ times when we ought to say things like this.. God can move thru a sinner, in a great house there are vessels onto honour and dishonour... its the move of the spirit that determines the music... but i get your point...

Germany take on Portugal on June 16, in a Group G match at the Arena Fonte Nova, in Salvador. Here are the three key players to the German side:
1) Mesut Ozil: He is the key play-maker in the German side. He will be given the duty to provide a number of passes to the strikers for them to score the goals.
2) Philip Lahm: Philip Lahm will lead the German side. He is the main player in the German defense.
3) Miroslav Klose: He is the most experienced player in the German Squad. He is just a goal away from becoming FIFA World Cup's joint-top scorer along with Ronaldo (Brazilian)
4) Bastian Schweinsteiger: Though injured for the match against Portugal, he will remain a key player for the German side in the holding-midfield role.

RPG Mode weapon firing problems
Primary fire is my L Mouse button--secondary is my R mouse button.
When in RPG mode almost any time im in a combat situation the mouse buttons wont work for alt or secondary fire modes with hand weapons. I can cycle targets but when I fire with the mouse nothing happens about 80% of the time. If I push the 1 or 2 number buttons the correct fire mode works every time. I can enter shooter mode and aim and the mouse buttons fire properly...it s just RPG mode. Ive verified keybinds and all....not sure whats causing this.

Gwyneth's Tracy Anderson Bootleg Video
Last we checked in with Tracy Anderson, she was getting sued by her ex husband and breaking up with Madonna. Well, today begins the counter-offensive, courtesy of Gwyneth, who has rallied a crew of celebrity buddies — Courtney Cox, Donna Karan, and Kristen Davis, among others — to give Tracy testimonials in the latest issue of Goop. Gwyneth also includes the following down-homey video of Tracy demonstrating a Tracy workout; which workout, G. says, she "did every day preparing for Iron Man," and which apparently solved her "batwing problem." TMI?! The workout looks sort of sexy and fun. It also looks like Tracy is desperately trying to communicate, via erratic arm waving, with a visiting space alien. Given that she's got mirrors on all sides, that may not be far from the truth. Oh snap!
Hot Weather
Top Juice Joint
Our very favorite place to cool off this summer is the Liquiteria, local health food joint on 11th Street and 2nd Avenue. It's an amazing, breezy clean oasis that offers the most awesome fresh-squeezed juices. We typically go for either the famous cure-all, "Killer," made from green apples, lemon and immuno booster; OR, the all-green juice of kale, spinach, celery, parsley and cucumber. While you're there, you can also buy fresh coconuts, sandwiches, raw food bars, soup, and eighty-dollar bags of bourgeois nut mix.
Pardon us for being so un-snarky, but we find it hard to be critical about the place. Next time you're trolling the East Village during daylight hours, stop by and grab a Berry Powerful smoothie. Chances are you'll run into a celebrity eating a tofu pop by the juice bar.

The Lebron Workout
Oh boy, Men's Health scores interview with NBA mega-superstar Lebron James, and they've created an eight page online feature detailing the non-basketball parts of his dailly workout. Here's the truth: In addition to being a comic genius, Lebron is a personal trainer's dream. There's nothing fancy or super macho here: Pull ups, push ups, some tough-looking core exercises on an exercise ball. (Does Gaiam make balls big enough for a guy 6'8" and 250?) No bench press, no Oympic clean and jerk. Nothing to wow the CrossFit set. Minus the part about doing squats on a vibrating platform, you could start this today.

After, go for drinks at the Polo Lounge or brunch by the gorgeous pool—jump in too, while you're at it. (It's a good one for laps).

Big, Fancy Benefit Alert
On Feb 25, Bent on Learning, which brings yoga to New York's public schools, will host its Winter Fundraising Gala. Other than bringing stress relief to New York's kids, here's why some budding yogis might want to hit this thing: Among the hosts are many devoted students of yoga guru Eddie Stern, whose Soho studio is the New York outpost of the storied Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute in Mysore, India. (Gwyneth! Mike D from the Beastie Boys! Lisa Edelstein from the TV show "House!") Stern is famously strict about whom he takes on: Since he already has way too many students, he will only teach people serious enough to practice a minimum of three times a week, and preferably six times, (which makes yoga seem like a part time job, albeit one that comes with community and fringe spiritual benefits.) Even if you're ready to go daily, though, Stern can be picky, so this benefit may be your ticket--literally--in the door.

Rap artist Cory Gunz heads to reality TV this week with a new MTV series.
"'Son of a Gun' is a reality series about the tough decisions and hard work it takes to make it in the unique world of music; a raw and untamed look behind the scenes of an industry so many know, but few understand," reads the MTV website.
The series, premiering Thursday, co-stars Nick Cannon and Cory's dad, rapper Peter Gunz, who's probably best known for his song "Uptown Baby."
What's Nick Cannon got to do with it?
As the CEO of NCredible Entertainment, he's credited with first recognizing Cory's talent. Although Nick claims he really just wants Cory to succeed, Cory's camp doubts his sincerity. That brings about conflicts.
"Everybody thinks that once you get signed, that's the easy part. That's not the easy part," Cory said.
In addition to the business, Cory deals with family, his newfound fame and financial issues.
Though he can now add "reality star" to his resume, the Bronx, NY native is best known for spitting a verse on Lil' Wayne's "6 Foot 7 Foot."
However, fans who tune in will find out there's a lot more to Cory than just an artist offering lines on someone else's hit.
Watch the trailer.

KLIATTLong considered one of the foremost experts on Lewis and Clark and the Corps of Discovery, James Ronda presents the seven chapters of this little book as if they were a series of reflective essays based on years of scholarship and study. For this reason, Finding the West is not necessarily a good introduction to the drama of Lewis and Clark, but rather an excellent capstone work. Ronda reflects on the role of rivers in the thinking of Jefferson, on the expectations that Lewis and Clark carried with them on their journey, on the maps they had and those they made, and, perhaps most importantly, on the imperial designs of the era's explorers and of those who sent them. Ronda's prose is liquid, his scholarship broad and his storytelling ability absorbing.

Soaked Stricker stunning in wet round
Wis. resident fires day's best round at Riviera
Mickelson hangs tough
Two-time defending champion Phil Mickelson overcame some wild shots and a near lost ball by making seven birdies to shoot 66 and rise from a tie for 83rd after Round 1 to a tie for 11th.
Starting at No. 10, the San Diegan was 2-under for the round when he initially couldn't find his ball after driving near a fairway bunker at No. 15. With the five-minute time limit coming to an end, Mickelson's caddie, Jim Mackay, found the ball nestled in the heavy kikuyu rough. Mickelson punched out and saved par.
At the par-4 second, Mickelson's hooked drive struck a wall of the media center, but he got a drop and saved bogey. From there, he steadied the round, making three birdies over his last six holes.
Mickelson said phone conversations Thursday night with putting coach Dave Stockton and swing coach Butch Harmon helped him.
"I think it settled in today," he said. "I was able to make the last adjustment and it felt better."

Kobe Bryant Joins the Athlete-Entrepreneur Hall of Fame
George Foreman, American Professional Boxer
Not many people can brag they've made as a big a contribution to consumer product culture as heavyweight boxing champion Foreman. In addition to selling hundreds of millions of his signature George Foreman Lean Mean Fat-Reducing Grilling Machines, Foreman has made hundreds of millions of dollars lending his face and name to products ranging from cleaning solutions to men's clothing. In 2005, he owned a 35 percent stake in a George Foreman Enterprises, whose sole asset was George Foreman's face and name. GFE ceased trading in March due to escalating losses.
