A Sandusky man racked up nearly a dozen charges early Sunday morning after he allegedly drove drunk, didn't obey police officers, then hurling threats at them while behind bars.
Dionell Alexander, 36, of the 400 block of E. Adams St., was charged with operating a vehicle under the influence, failure to comply with the order of an officer, carrying a concealed weapon, aggravated menacing, resisting arrest, obstruction, open container, driving without lights, one-way street violation and driving under suspension.
A Sandusky police officer tried to stop Alexander at about 2:30 a.m. on Columbus Avenue after noticing the vehicle's headlights weren't turned on, according to a Sandusky police report.
But when the officer flipped on his lights, Alexander allegedly continued to drive—he made his way to Decatur Street and Central Avenue near St. Mary's Church before stopping the vehicle, the report said.
The officer ordered Alexander out at gunpoint and told him to get on the ground, but Alexander allegedly refused.
When Alexander began reaching for his pockets and got confrontational, officers used a Taser to take him down, the report said.
Later found was a lock-blade knife clipped on to Alexander's belt, the report said.
Once in a police cruiser, Alexander became belligerent, threatening to "slap the (expletive)" out of officers and saying he'd "take care of them" the next time he saw them on the street, the report said.
And back at the police station, Alexander allegedly continued the threats.
He told several officers he would beat them down and "take care" of them as they passed by his holding cell, the report said.
Alexander was later taken to the Erie County jail and held without bond.

Kentucky's General Assembly just gave the state's Transportation Cabinet the go-ahead to begin consideration for additional median barriers along Interstate 65 including a mile-long stretch in LaRue County.
The newly passed Transportation budget will allow the cabinet to research where concrete barriers will be most effective along the interstate and then place them in these locations as a temporary fix. These barriers would help to fill in the gaps where no median cable or concrete barriers already exist, officials said.
Next Level claimed the 16s title in the State Basketball AAU Tournament.
The team defeated Hoop Dreams, Derek Smith All-Stars and The Ville at the KBA facility in Lexington.
LaRue County High School basketball standouts Jordan Brewer and Anthony "Smurf" Myrks play for Next Level.

Having proper handling facilities, understanding animal behavior and following safe handling techniques can make the chore of moving cattle less stressful for the animal and producer.
When moving cattle, the position and movement of the handler is important.
Cattle have a flight zone – the area around them that they do not like for people to enter.
The size of this zone varies from animal to animal. The animal will move away when a person enters this zone and that trait can be used to move them where you want them to go.
In an effort to support local food production, the Environmental Finance Center at the University of Louisville has launched Kentucky Food Trader (www.kyfoodtrader.org), a virtual farmers' market that connects both buyers and sellers with local food as soon as it is harvested.

North County faces return to Iraq in 2004
For North County's military community, 2003 ended almost as it began: with tens of thousands of local Marines and sailors preparing for war in Iraq.
As many as 25,000 local troops are scheduled to leave San Diego ports for Iraq in the next few months, almost a year since more than 45,000 local Marines and sailors deployed there to end the regime of Saddam Hussein.
An additional 20,000 local troops will follow in the autumn, all of them scheduled to spend at least seven months fighting insurgents in western Iraq.
For thousands of Marines, Iraq will be familiar territory.
For many of their families, the deployment will be the second long separation in a year.
For the entire community of North County, 2004 could be another year of goodbyes, fear, pride and loss.
Iraq: Round II
The Marines were sent to Iraq in 2003 to depose a dictator who U.S. leaders said threatened the world with chemical, biological and possibly even nuclear weapons.
They found no banned weapons, but the Marines accomplished their mission with speed, courage and even style, and they adapted gracefully when the mission turned from invasion to occupation.
Commanders say they left behind a legacy of peace and progress in several southern provinces that were left in their care.
The I Marine Expeditionary Force commander, Lt. Gen. James Conway, perhaps summed it up best when he returned from Iraq in September.
"In the attack, they demonstrated aggressiveness (and) raw courage," Conway said. "During stabilization ops (operations), they dealt firmly with the local population, but that was tempered with compassion, professionalism and the ability to deal with any scenario."
For their performance, the 45,000-strong force received the highest military unit award, the Presidential Unit Citation, in November.
Now they are being called on again to return and occupy an Oklahoma-sized chunk of western Iraq where other U.S. troops have been attacked every day.
Some Marines complain that occupation is "the Army's job," which they shouldn't have to do. Others say they want to finish what they started.
But no matter what the troops think, their leaders have told them to rest up and enjoy the holidays because they have only a month or so before the deployments begin in earnest.
Showdown with Saddam
The year 2003 dawned with the first major troop deployments to Kuwait.
As President George W. Bush challenged Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein over Iraq's alleged weapons of mass destruction, he ordered a massive buildup of U.S. forces in the Persian Gulf region.
But by that time a few thousand local Marines, mostly headquarters and logistics elements of Camp Pendleton's I Marine Expeditionary Force, were already in Qatar and Kuwait laying the foundations for a massive force about to depart San Diego County's shores.
The Pentagon froze retirements and transfers for thousands of Marines for the next nine months, leaving even those scheduled to be out of the Corps in the following weeks heading for war instead of civilian life.
After receiving smallpox and anthrax inoculations, boarding up their barracks and saying goodbyes to loved ones, tens of thousands of Marines and sailors left San Diego County on ships and on military and commercial flights bound for Kuwait.

"While it might be more of a seller's market, the expectation on price will be high, so marketing skills will be critical to get the most buyers at the highest price in the least amount of time. Both the buyers and sellers are stuck in the 2008 mindset, so agents will have to be great problem solvers."
5. Master paperwork
Daren Blomquist, vice president at foreclosure tracker RealtyTrac in Irvine, notes that new lending rules and still-anxious lenders means agents must watch every detail of a transaction.
Managerial keys this year are "familiarity with the ever-changing documentation and paperwork needed to successfully complete a short sale," in which a lender must agree to take a loss to close a deal, and "quick access to all the documents needed to refinance or finance the purchase of a new home or investment property."
6. Practice flexibility
Tricia Esser, CEO of architects KTGY Group in Irvine, says acceptance of new ideas will be paramount this year.
"We need to be flexible, that's the No. 1 skill necessary in this market whether it's (designing) residential or retail real estate. We also need to be prepared to translate what the consumer wants and be quick to incorporate those into our designs. On the retail (development) side, we've tossed out all the old ways of thinking; in today's world it's about the viability of the deal. Retailers and developers are working even harder to get cities to support new ways of looking at developments."
7. Price skillfully
Alan Reay, president of hotel consultancy Atlas Hospitality Group, says a recovering market requires a deft touch for the owners of big investment properties, like hotels -- knowing just how much even a more optimistic consumer will pay.
For hotels, the managerial key "will be managing 'yield.' Occupancies are now back above pre-recession levels, so the best managers are going to be those who know how to maximize the average daily rate."
8. Increase speed
Rand Sperry, co-founder and CEO of Sperry Van Ness, a commercial real estate franchisor in Irvine, says his side of the industry will be a bit cooler, requiring even quicker thinking and actions.
"Competition will continue to increase for quality real estate investment opportunities. It is also important to cultivate and maintain key relationships with your business partners, clients, associates and investors, as the truly good investment opportunities do not sit on the market long. Having these strong relationships will mean the difference between being in the game or watching from the sidelines."
Jeff Ingham, senior managing director at commercial real estate brokerage Jones Lang LaSalle in Irvine, agrees:
"There is still a significant level of uncertainty politically, and hence, will ultimately affect the business climate. The key to success then drives to a tight business plan with the ability to adapt quickly. One of my favorite terms is to be ready for the opportunistic strike."

By FLORENCE A. SAMY
SHAH ALAM: "Missing" private investigator P. Balasubramaniam, whose whereabouts are still unknown, and Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Kamarudin are among the witnesses sought by the defence in the Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu murder trial.
The trial has been postponed to Jan 15 next year to allow the defence more time to prepare their case and gather witnesses.
C/Insp Azilah Hadri and Kpl Sirul Azhar Umar, who donned suits, were supposed to enter their defence Monday against the murder charge. They had chosen to testify under oath.
Kpl Sirul Azhar's counsel Kamarul Hisham told the Shah Alam High Court Monday that they wanted to call Balasubramaniam and Raja Petra with regards to their statutory declarations regarding the case.
Kamarul said there was no response from Raja Petra's lawyers despite the many messages, calls and a letter on Oct 31 expressing their intention to interview him.
Kamarul asked for more time to locate Balasubramaniam as police were looking for him and to find out whether Raja Petra was willing to be interviewed.
"If he (Raja Petra) is not willing then maybe we can ask the court to subpoena him," he told the court.
Meanwhile, C/Insp Azilah's counsel Datuk Hazman Ahmad told the court they needed more time to prepare his client and asked for leeway to settle a backlog of cases which had to be postponed due to this trial.
"We have not gotten the witnesses that we need. We were supposed to meet the witnesses offered by the prosecution on Saturday but most of them were not in KL and two were in Sabah and thus we could prepare for today."
When met by reporters later, Hazman said they would be going for the alibi defence for his client and it had nothing to do with Raja Petra or Balasubramaniam. He would be calling eight witnesses.
Kamarul told reporters they may submit the statutory declarations as evidence if Balasubramaniam could not be found.
Both lawyers, who submitted prior applications for the postponement, argued in court that the prosecution took one and a half years to submit their case and thus the defence should be given time to present theirs.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Tun Abdul Majid Tun Hamzah told the court that he did not object to the case postponement but said they would object to the defence's intention to recall some of the prosecution's witnesses including Balasubramaniam.
High Court Justice Mohd Zaki Md Yasin said the matter of calling Balasubramaniam did not really arise if his whereabouts are unknown.
Abdul Majid said he had instructed investigating officer ASP Tony Lunggan to locate Balasubramaniam.
"Until (Sunday) we could not locate him. No one is occupying his house in Rawang anymore," he told the court.
Justice Mohd Zaki fixed the trial date from Jan 15 next year and said it would continue until the trial ends as he did not want any more postponements.
The two accused, who were Special Action Force (UTK) operatives, were charged with murdering Altantuya at Mukim Bukit Raja, Selangor, between 10pm on Oct 19 and 1am on Oct 20, 2006.
Political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda was acquitted of abetment in Altantuya's murder on Oct 31.

Sundance offers Oscar sneak peek a year in advance
Marsh returns to Sundance this time with "Project Nim," chronicling the life of a chimpanzee that was taught sign language and raised like a human child.
Also back at Sundance is Morgan Spurlock, who came to the festival in 2004 with "Super Size Me," his fast-food expose in which he ate nothing but McDonald's meals for a month. A year later, "Super Size Me" had an Oscar nomination for best documentary.
Spurlock's Sundance premiere this time is "The Greatest Movie Ever Sold," a documentary about product placement in films. After the yearlong buildup to awards season that began at Sundance for "Super Size Me," Spurlock admitted he's given some thought to next year's Oscars for his new film.
"I don't stand in the shower and hold up shampoo bottles giving Oscar speeches just for fun," Spurlock said. "Once you go, you think, God, I hope I get to go again sometime."

I did a ride a month or so ago with my buddy Dale in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. We rode through three Sierra Nevada Mountain passes that day and had a great ride, but I wouldn't repeat the exact ride for any amount of money. Well, it would have to be a lot. Recently, however, I got the
Our contributor and his buddy Dale brought along a Sunset Red Thruxton as well as a T-100 Bonneville.
urge to ride all the Sierra Nevada Mountain passes. We had previously been through Sonora Pass, Devils Gate Pass and Tioga Pass. There were still five of the nine passes remaining.
I left work at 3:30 on Friday of Labor Day weekend and rode a Triumph 220 miles to Dale's house in the San Joaquin valley. After a great supper and some planning we were ready for an early morning departure and three more mountain passes. On the Map it looked to be approximately 350 miles.
Saturday at 6:00 a.m. we were up and getting ready to hit the road. A quick cup of coffee at Starbucks and by 8:00 the adventure began. Rather than take the direct route to Highway 4 (Ebbetts Pass), we took the back roads and passed by Tulloch Lake in Calveras County. From there we got on Highway 4 and started the ascent. The morning was warm enough that I only needed an extra "disposable" t-shirt under my light Joe Rocket jacket. The sky was clear blue and the scenery incredible the whole way.
There was pleasant scenery for most of the trip with the smell of pine thick in the air.
One of my biggest concerns was how well my Carbureted Triumph Thruxton would run at altitude. The top of Ebbetts Pass is a bit over 8,000 ft. above sea level. Much to my amazement the bike ran great, albeit a wee bit down on power. The forest going up Ebbetts Pass was absolutely beautiful, and the smell from the pines pleasantly accompanied us the whole way.
We passed through Gold Rush towns with names like "Murphey" and "Copperropolis," and had a close encounter with the local Sheriff somewhere before "Alpine Lake." The road was in excellent condition and, as much as I'm known for my pace, I enjoyed a rather relaxed ride up the mountain, stopping along the way to tell Dale which pictures to take.
Somewhere before Alpine Lake the road got real narrow without a centerline, and thanks to Labor Day weekend tourist traffic, the pace slowed. It turned out to be a blessing really, as I saw more scenery than I usually do.
We crested the summit, took more pictures and made the narrow descent to the valley below on Highway 89 (Monitor Pass).
We turned right on Highway 89 and headed for Highway 395 and Lake Topaz in Nevada. Hwy 89 is a racetrack - a real sweet, fast road. It was too bad the Triumph was down to about 40hp, because when the SV1000 passed me like I was
The view at Devil's Playground looked out over a huge valley of granite formations with streams trickling through.
standing still I was doing 80 mph and didn't have anything left to try and chase him down. It's a great road with little traffic, and as you cross the summit there's the most amazing view of the high desert valley heading north to Nevada.
We made it to Topaz Lake and were surprised by the mileage we'd gotten - 45 mpg. I thought with the power deficit at altitude and the carbs having no way to compensate we'd get rotten mileage. I was pleasantly surprised. We spent way more time than we should have talking to countless older gentlemen who took notice of our bikes, saying: "That's a Bonneville... I use to have one of them."
Afterward we headed north out of Topaz Lake to Carson City, Nevada on Highway 88 (Carson Pass) for the return trip. Dale and I disagree on which pass has the better scenery. He likes Carson Pass and the Granite, but I think he's prejudiced after growing up hunting and fishing there. Me, I liked the Pine forests of Ebetts Pass.
Hwy 88 is a big, two-lane that consist of mostly fast sweepers, passing lanes, some real pretty lakes and a good deal of tourist traffic. The vistas are also pretty spectacular. Devil's Playground looks out over a valley of huge granite formations with little streams trickling through.
The ride down was uneventful until our planned fuel stop had padlocks on the pumps. We didn't have to worry though, the mileage going down was just as good and we found gas and more people who wanted to talk about their memories of old Triumphs.
Our contributor, Chris Franklin, and his buddy Dale.
At the bottom of Hwy 88 we picked up Highway 4 again and headed to Escalon. It had become hot in the valley while we were up enjoying the mountains. I wanted a milkshake and a padded seat for my sore rear end. I got the milkshake at a place called the "Hula Hut," but missed out on the padded seat till we got back to Dale's place 378 miles later.
The Sierra Nevada Mountains are incredible riding, regardless of how fast or slow you want to go. My favorite passes to date are: Monitor Pass (Hwy 89) and the Sonora Pass (Hwy 108).
There are only two more passes to do which are rideable. The Walker Pass at the southern end, and the Fredonyer Pass at the northern end. Google Maps puts it at about a 1,200-mile round trip from my house on the Central Coast. I'm thinking that'll have to wait until next Labor Day. But at least now I have something to look forward to.

So don't know if wasting time again writing detailed observations. Really love your app. It does exactly as stated which was precisely the solution I sought. I appreciate you leaving out cheap ads. Google's version included with my phone hasn't a clue what anyone is saying, completely useless.

From the article: Photo Gallery: Inside Artists' Studios
What rules do you have for visitors to your studio (including friends and family)? It is to not touch anything, or perhaps not to turn any canvasses facing the wall around? To not comment on works in progress unless you solicit an opinion? Or do you simply not allow visitors at all?
Stay Out Unless Invited
- I remember a story about Alexander Calder being furious because his family tidied up his studio for his birthday surprise and went off in a huff, not attending his own festivities! My studio is creative chaos, I know where everything is, I work on more than one piece at a time, sometimes in different mediums. I keep the door closed. My dog is the only one allowed. The cats have been exiled for various infringements. If invited, I say you can look but don't touch. I don't have people in when working. That way we can sit down and talk about art or whatever. The atmosphere of the studio does seem conducive to lively conversation. Art making is mostly solitary and I find only other artists really get that.
- —Guest artzi
Don't Cook My Subject Matter!
- A watercolor class assignment was to paint a still life with vegetables. Among my items was a nice, plump purple eggplant. Before I was quite through with the painting (the third week of class), my wife cooked the eggplant! Since then, I've concentrated on landscapes and cityscapes.
- —Guest Steve Walters
Solitude and Comfort
- I love my alone time. My back porch is where my studio space is set up. I like to work in an uncluttered atmosphere. I had storage cupboards built where I can keep stuff hidden while providing me with a surface to set up my things. I only have rules for myself. Aside from the tidy workspace, I work better alone. The reason for that is I like to talk a little too much. Once I start to paint, I'm oblivious to everything going on around me. Another rule I'm working at is to take more breaks during the day. At 60, I'm getting a bit stiff in the joints.
- —Guest shirley laprise
Studio Rules
- Yes it's my messy studio. I know where everything is. You may look but do not touch.
- —Amaladybug
Music, Music, Music
- The only rule I have in the studio is music! I listen to music all day when I paint. Jazz is the best and jazz singers in other languages even better.
- —Guest Art Epicurean - Jane Robinson
Studio Rules
- Please come by but don't expect much conversation. My wife once asked about an oil change for the car while I was working. I answered her with our phone number. Please don't touch anything.
- —Guest Matthewsheekart
No Special Studio Rules
- There are no special rules for visitors in my studio. They may touch the paintings unless they're wet. Comments and opinions are well appreciated, especially on works on progress. They may actually provide improvements on it. It depends on the purpose of the painting. If the painting is a request then I give my best to satisfy it. If a painting is my idea I also value and evaluate comments in order to follow them or not. I don't like to be distracted for long hours, or leave a chaos on the studio at the end of the day. I need to clean palette and brushes every day. Remaining paint of the day is saved in a small tile (oil) or wet paper (acrylic) inside a plastic box.
- —fernando.sobral
No Entry
- No entry without prior invitation! My studio/atelier is located in the garden away from the home. As it contains printmaking chemicals for etching and screenprinting as well as paintings on easels, I don't need the added burden of having to supervise some uninvited idiot touch something potentially dangerous. Here in my studio/atelier I have no distractions. No doorbells, no telephone and most importantly I am not at home whilst in the studio/atelier.
- —maaad
My Art Studio
- The only people who show interest in entering my studio besides me are my grandchildren, and usually they ask first. If a project is underway and paints and brushes are out and too available for grabbing I will say no, I have "stuff out cause I'm working on something". I do have (cheap) tubes of water and acrylic paints for grandchildren to use, and they certainly love using them.
- —skrh
My 'Studio' Rules
- Everybody's welcome to my corner of the living room, my studio. Don't touch the paintings or pick the brushes that I am using. I usually set my GGC and younger GC up at the dining room table to paint their own masterpieces to take home, so I 'share' some brushes and paint, pallets, etc.
- —Bestobecky
Art Studio Rules
- I know there was a possible hail storm being predicted and my studio was the only place with floor space large enough to get the antique car into on short notice, but NEVER EVER run into my stored paintings again or I'll personally become that car's demise! I promise.
- —Guest Theresa H
- I do my best work with the iPod on a small boom box, softly playing mostly classical or operatic music. So far the neighbors have not complained (studio is on the back porch).
- —wiltonnelson
Please be nice
- I like working in our living room in our apartment, love having family around, art as part of my life, part of living, social and happy. But I do prefer if my family would keep any helpful (distracting) comments about how to fix an unfinished painting to a minimum. IT'S NOT FINISHED, I know there is stuff to be fixed and worked on. Only when I am happy with a piece is it finished and then I'll accept praise, thank you!
- —Guest Carol
No Rules Needed
- I live in Floridia. I work evening shift and get home at 11:30pm. I paint on my screen room at all the wee hours of the mprning. Everyone I know is asleep so I have no interruptions. I paint in abstract style with black and white and bright colors so I don't worry too much about natural light!
- —Guest Hooky46
Feel Free....
- ....to look with your eyes, not with your hands. I work in pastels and they smudge easily, so keep your fingers to yourself. My pastel sticks are hand made, expensive and fragile -- do NOT pick them up.

Orc fest for all
Hey all --
Been lurking here far to long without actually posting anything and as I'm currently revamping my portfolio I thought I'd post some images here as I go along. My hopes would be to create good enough artwork to generate some freelance commissions so I'd really, really appriciate some c&c I intend on going back to fixing stuff when I get some more perspective on the piece (it's fresh out of the oven so to speak).
Oh it's intentionally dark and lit for showcasing purposes; the 3d model will be created with an unlit bright plate~~
More to come..

Chermilla - I wouldn't want to be headbutted by anyone Thanks for the encouragement!
ChaoticKnight - You're making me blush Nope these are just hand drawn directly in Photoshop, heck I didn't even use reference for this one (that will bite me in the ass later on). I'm gonna turn this into a 3d model eventually, currently working on the body concept. Thanks!
dkounios - Yeah gotta show thems orcs some love! Thanks and he'll be entering the third dimension some time later on yeah
July 17th, 2007 #6
Oh my, very nice. Hearing you made this from scratch in photoshop only makes it better! Hot-damn, don't you come near me or I 'll never get a job.
His nose looks a bit thin though, in frontal view. But I can live with that.
Let me guess, he's got two left hands but he's going to make his wife sushi dinner anyway tonight, right?

the subtle light makes it extra creepy....and that blade protruding from his head is wicked!! Keep 'em coming!
July 17th, 2007 #8
Very nice. Lighting is excellent. Only crit is the ears. I know that the tops of ears are particularly vascular and thinner than most parts of the body so they are often much more red in color. However the orc has primarily gray skin and so the pink hue is much too saturated for the color palette and even too saturated for a good deal of humans. Crank that down a notch or three and youll have a good piece on your hands.

Cool, I'm looking into doing the same thing.
1 gal water jugs work good. Even better with an extra empty 5 gal collapsable tank like those sold in camping supplies. with a clean tarp, and funnel to capture rain water.
On some of those boats the swing keel has a locking bolt to keep from undeploying during rough seas. If it doesn't think about building one.
Upgraded rigging, and reinforced mast step should take care of most issues, every boat of every size has it's weaknesses.
Locking pins on hatches, and hatch boards, drains on cockpit lockers, seals on lazeret lids,....
And with a solid hull, and good ballast ratio, it should be just fine, after all you will be "coastal sailing", and can escape major storms if you watch the weather.
That size of boat will fit in ICW easily, and is an option if it gets too nasty offshore.
I'm also working on a "pocket sailer", and I hope to meet you in the Carribean someday. :thumbs up:

Why the fuck couldn't they have their fun at six then end at seven. And also why do we have Canada day and the Americans not have an American day. Seriously, wtf.

In 1912, a small town began to think big
CORPUS CHRISTI - One hundred years ago, the year 1912 marked the beginning of great change for Corpus Christi. A lot of things were going on that laid the foundation for what the city would become. It didn't all happen in 1912, but much of it started then. That's when progressive sparks began to fly.
You hate to start with a list but ... the City of Corpus Christi began building a new Municipal Wharf. A new City Hall had just been built the year before. The city was about to begin paving downtown streets and putting up the bluff balustrade to separate downtown from uptown. Nueces County was about to start to work on building a new courthouse (the 1914 Courthouse, still with us) and an elegant new causeway to Portland.
Who knows whether public investments spurred private growth or whether it was the other way around? Certainly, private investment came in very close conjunction with public investment. The Nueces Hotel was going up on the site of the old Anderson homestead on Water Street and the Beach Hotel, later called the Breakers, was under construction on North Beach.
In its 40th year, old Market Hall was torn down to make way for a new City Hall, built at a cost of $55,000. The new three-story brick City Hall on Market Square was built during the Clark Pease administration. The new building had two large halls on the third floor, city offices, two rooms for the police department, jail quarters, and one room leased to Western Union. It later had a charity hospital on the third floor. The building served as City Hall for 40 years before a new one was built on Shoreline.
Besides building a new City Hall, the city was taking steps in 1912 to improve its downtown streets, to accommodate the automobile. Paving began on Chaparral, Mesquite and Water, with the city paying one-fourth the cost and property owners paying three-fourths. In all, the plan called for paving 150 blocks of city streets.
Some of the street bond money was set aside to build a concrete balustrade on the side of the bluff, an ugly, muddy and slippery slope when it rained. Alexander Potter, a New York engineer hired to design a water supply system for the city, drew up plans to terrace the bluff and build the balustrade. Conrad Blucher used Potter's design to make more detailed plans for the bluff improvement project.
Giant walls, with reinforced concrete base anchors, were built. The bluff was terraced to prevent erosion and in places the height was cut down and in others built up. A tunnel connecting uptown to downtown was added later. The bluff improvement project was finished during the administration of Mayor Roy Miller.
Though planning was begun in 1912, the Municipal Wharf was not completed until 1914. It was built on a landfill off Cooper's Alley where the old Mann wharf once stood. It served as the town's primary shipping wharf.
In 1912, the county began planning to replace the 1875 Courthouse, designed by Rudolph Hollub, a former Union Army engineer, and generally called the Hollub Courthouse. In 1913, voters approved a $250,000 bond issue to build a new courthouse. The six-story 1914 Courthouse became a showpiece. The newspaper was effusive: "Modern architecture is seen to abound in the new courthouse ... the building is unique ... a massive structure of splendor ... a credit to the hand of man ... one is dazzled as he looks at the tall columns over the doorway ..."
Besides taking steps to build a new courthouse, the county also began planning to build a causeway to Portland. Since the 1840s, travelers crossed the bay by using the underwater Reef Road, a raised natural reef of oyster shells that divided Corpus Christi Bay from Nueces Bay. The first work ordered by the Nueces County Commissioners Court on Jan. 11, 1847, was to stake the Reef Road so travelers on horseback or in buggies wouldn't stray from off the reef and into deeper water.
After the turn of the century, people still crossed the Reef Road in horse-drawn wagons and buggies, which looked from a distance as if they were traveling on water. You could say that Nueces County had the wettest road in the world.
Starting in 1912, the county began work on building an arched causeway across the old Reef Road. The new causeway cost the county $166,000 to build. It didn't last long. It was damaged in the 1916 hurricane, then destroyed in the 1919 storm.
The pride of Corpus Christi, when it opened in 1913, was the 278-room Nueces Hotel, the tallest building south of San Antonio. It was built by several investors who were later bought out by cattle rancher W.W. Jones. This aristocrat of hotels was famous for its Tropical Garden and Sun Parlor.
Other big news in 1912 was the opening of the Corpus Beach Hotel, built by John Dickensen on North Beach. It was surrounded by oleanders and palms. A streetcar stopped at the front door and the grounds ran down to the water. People lounged under shingled sheds on the beach while waiters fetched drinks and snacks. The Beach Hotel was later remodeled and renamed The Breakers.
Corpus Christi made great strides toward becoming a modern city during the administrations of Clark Pease (1909 to 1913) and Roy Miller (1913 to 1919), but if we need a starting point (and we do for this column) then we can look to 1912. At the time, it was still a small village of 8,000 souls, but 1912 set the style for what Corpus Christi would become.

Three years ago, just when I switched from the Monster to the DR, a certain road taught me a lesson, so today my plan was to get back there...
on the way I bought a new Madison County map, since none of my other maps show this road. Stopped at Barnard to plan the route and... dang, on the new map it's clearly marked as a private road
. Well, I decided to just put around and take some pics as usual
somebody needs some goats!
Paw Paw
ignored the map and turned wherever I felt like it
. Glad I stopped there to take a pic... almost lost my plate
turned out nicely (I've been on it before - just from the other side)
kept on going w/o a plan, till I realized where is was... time to pick up an apple and a hooker
yeah, it's "fresh" (especially inside)
all other road signs were taken
from there I went to the opening of the new BMW shop in AVL.. nice shop, nice unobtanium, and the only pic I took was of an old V50
(couldn't help myself, I owned one like this a long long time ago)
at this point my back tire was shut and started to chop big time (the side knobs literally breaking off) ... so, change of plans and back home I went
- via a quick stop at the Wedge
Gonna put on a new tire tonight - anybody wanna get dirty tomorrow???

Israeli Minister Mocks To-Be-Deported Kids
Shas chairman refers to 'field trip'
Last Friday, Liel Leibovitz reported in Tablet Magazine on the Israeli government's plans to expel approximately 400 children of illegal foreign workers. "It is hard to exaggerate the wickedness of this decision, and its fundamental negation of both the spirit and the letter of Judaism," Liel argued. He made a convincing case—not only for the policy's cruelty, but for its impracticality, and finally for its betrayal of what Zionism should be.
Liel persuaded me. But there are probably reasonable people who could differ with him.
There is reasonable, though, and then there is Eli Yishai. The chairman of the ultra-religious Shas Party, as interior minister Yishai is actually in charge of effecting these kids' deportations. So what is his response? "The children need to be told that their field trip has ended," he said yesterday. "Is one of them going to stand up and cry?"
Presumably Yishai is cranky—or, if you will, being an asshole—because the 400 deportations actually represent a compromise: He had wanted an additional 800 kids to be forced out.

Most banks, both public sector and private, are offering rates not seen at the short end of the maturity spectrum for long. So, if you are looking to reduce your exposure in equity and increase investment in safer options such as term deposits, there couldn't be a better time to do it than now.
Raghuvir Srinivasan
Are you a conservative investor who has been put off by the gut-wrenching volatility in the stock market in the last few weeks? Are you considering a temporary rejig of your portfolio to reduce exposure to equity and increase investment in safer options such as debt, including term deposits? If so, there couldn't be a better time than now to do it.
A big tussle has broken out in the market amongst major banks, public sector and private, to garner short-term deposits, leading to the kind of rates not seen at the short end of the maturity spectrum for a long time now.
Attractive short-term interest rates
Rates range between 8.25 per cent to as high as 9.5 per cent for short-term deposits with a one-year or lower tenor (see graphic). Deposits by senior citizens fetch a premium of 0.25-1 percentage points over the prevailing general rate.
These attractive rates open up a few possibilities for those willing to reshuffle their portfolios and ride out the market volatility.
Depending on your risk profile, you could pull out partially from stocks and invest the funds in a short-term bank deposit. For instance, Oriental Bank of Commerce's 300-day deposit that offers 9.5 per cent is an excellent option that combines safety with decent returns, though it may not be comparable to what could be had in stocks.
If you are a passive investor you could opt for the cumulative option; if you are among the more active types, you could opt for the fixed deposit option with monthly interest payments which could be re-invested either in stocks or in systematic investment plans (SIP) of mutual funds.
This way, you can get the best of both worlds safety of the principal through the deposit and incremental returns through investment in SIPs that are ideal in volatile stock market conditions. The basic idea here is to capitalise on the extremely attractive short-term rates on offer and to diversify your portfolio.
For those of you already locked into long-term deposits at considerably lower rates of interest, it may even make sense to break the deposits and look at re-investing the money in a short-term deposit now. Of course, such a decision should be a function of how long the existing long-term deposit has been in place and the penalty that your bank/financial institution/company would levy for foreclosure. By shifting now (assuming that the arithmetic is in your favour, of course) it will be possible for you to exploit a further surge in interest rates if it were to occur in the next one year.
With your short-term deposit maturing in the next 12-18 months, you will be in a position to reinvest the same funds at a higher rate then. Of course, to do this you should be in a position to judge the possible trend in interest rate movements over the near-to-medium term.
Going by current indications it seems unlikely that rates will drop in the next year; they are likely to either stay where they are now or move up further.
In fact, the latter appears a distinct possibility now given the rapid economic expansion and the corporate sector's investment plans that are bound to push rates upwards; there is the spectre of inflation too and its effect on monetary policy.
While choosing the best option amongst all the banks now, you would do well to note the following issues:
Some bankshave a lock-in for the entire term of the deposit. Foreclosure would mean you will forfeit interest for the entire tenure.
So, if you anticipate a need for funds before the term ends, you may be better off choosing a bank that does not have such a condition and there are many of them. Some, such as ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank, permit partial pre-mature withdrawal with a penalty.
Most ofthe attractive offers close by March 31 with some such as Canara Bank open till May 31, and others just calling it a "limited period" offer. So decide and act quickly to take advantage of these rates.
The minimumdeposit amount ranges from Rs 100 (City Union Bank) to Rs 25,000 in the case of UCO Bank and Punjab National Bank. But in most cases it is an affordable Rs 10,000.
There aresome banks, such as Canara Bank, that offer only a cumulative deposit option. This will right away make it unattractive for a senior citizen depending on a monthly inflow of interest income.
Finally, ifyou are someone who likes to shop around for the best deal, you may want to look at banks that throw in additional features, such as a free ATM card, Internet banking and so on, along with the deposit.
The Web sites of most, if not all, banks that are in the market now have all the details you will need to make a decision.

When I put it on, it seems to be about 21 inches (maybe a little more) from where my trapezius meets my neck down to the bottom of the vest. I only measured on the front, I couldn't measure the back reasonably.
thanks, the 21 inches already gives me a good indication. just going from the front alone, goes past my hip. looks like i'm going to have to get the short one. but, that is quite a bit more ...
the short 40LB is pretty tempting at 100. too bad neither one comes with free shipping. maybe I can message the seller and talk them into free shipping ...
For anyone else who ordered this, would you mind writing your height/vest size?
I'm 5'10, but I've got a short torso. The 21" 60 pound vest (that op got) seems like it would rub against my hips. Any evidence that the 40 pound is smaller? Or is it just different weights?
Yes ma'am - deputized and everythin'.
OK bumping a thread from over 8 months ,rather than starting a new thread
I used an opening/flaw/mistake on the MIR website in April of 2013 to pick up a vest that I'd been looking at for about 6 months.
Apparently the loophole is back.
Special Offer With any Weighted Vest Purchase
MiR Vest is now having its Weekly Special. We offer two special, one special is our bonus item, and the other is our free items. Both are eligible when you order a weighted vest, belt, or shorts.
The bonus items consist of getting another MiR product at a discounted price. You can buy one for yourself, and get another item w/o weights for a great price. You can workout with your friends and family while using the same weights from your vest to their vest.
As for our free item, you are eligible with any order of weighted vest, shorts, or belt. These free items are accessories to compliment your workout, and it can be added to cart at the time of checkout. Sales can not be combined, surcharges may apply. If not added at the time of check out, this offer will be invalid. These items shipping and handling is not included. Warranties does not apply to bonus,discounted, or free items.
The only special offer this year, for a limited time only.
Check out the Great price!
Simply add it to cart!
What I did last time was order the cheapest possible item,
Mir Weights- Mir 1.5 lb Weights (2 pieces) for $8.99
and selected the MIR F.A.I. vest as the free item
the total was about $37 shipped
Mir dragged their feet shipping the item, and when I called with order number....the manager reluctantly approved the sale.
exact same loophole exists under the current promo....I added the items to cart...added the mir fai as the FREE item, declined the bonus item offer and cart said 37 with usps shipping
Cool way to get a very high quality vest that is pretty versatile.
the F.A.I. stands for "Fits All Items"
I wrote a review for the vest on amazon, obviously not a verified amazon purchase review....but it explains how I use the vest. and how I managed to load 50lbs of weight into it and the pros and cons
it's a short vest, comes WITHOUT weights with two wide pockets on front,,,,,,and two wide pockets and reflective strip on the back
It was cheaper for me to purchase this vest and figure out how to load 50lbs into it than it would have been to purchase a vest of similar quality with weights included
they run promos involving this vest all the time so no need to rush into this promo
if you're into crossfit, standard calisthenics, power walking,etc...you can use this
running with any amount of real weight on your body goes against everything I've ever been taught about exercise(seems like the pounding would do more damage than good) but I guess you can jog in this too

A Back-to-School Safety Message from the Sheriff
Beginning next Monday, August 19th, motorists, school children, school buses and crossing guards will once again be sharing the roadways in Volusia County. With the added traffic and congestion that always accompanies the return of the school year, even a mere moment of distraction or inattention by driver or pedestrian can have deadly consequences. That's why Volusia County Sheriff Ben Johnson and Volusia County School Superintendent Dr. Margaret Smith are teaming up to remind the public to be cautious and obey all safety rules. After all, an extra dose of vigilance just may prevent a tragedy, said Sheriff Johnson. "Everyone should put safety first as they go about their daily routines," the Sheriff said. "But we all need to be extra alert and exercise care, patience and good judgment when school is in session. It's that time of year when we all need that little reminder in order to help avoid a preventable tragedy."
Sheriff Johnson and Dr. Smith have strengthened their continuing school safety partnership, partly in response to accidents in Volusia County that have injured more than 50 students in the past two school years who were on their way to or from campus. More than half of the students injured were middle school age. To address the issue, the School District created a safety committee that's working to implement pedestrian and bicycle safety programs at all grades levels, with an emphasis on middle schools.
The School District will continue to educate students about safety, but is also relying heavily on parents to help drive the message home. "Parents are urged to discuss safety rules with their children who walk or bike to school or the bus stop," said Dr. Smith. "Students may think a driver sees them, but if the driver is distracted or the student darts in front of the vehicle, the result can be disastrous. It can be equally dangerous if a student is distracted, including wearing headphones or texting while walking."
Parents and school children won't encounter any changes in traffic patterns, speed limits or crossing guard locations this school year. However, deputies will be increasing enforcement efforts this week in advance of the start of the school year, with particular emphasis on speeding and seat belt violations.
Once school starts next week, deputies will be on the look-out for violators passing stopped school buses and also will be strictly enforcing reduced speeds and safety rules in school crossings.
Whether children are walking, riding a bicycle, taking the bus or being driven to school, Sheriff Johnson and Dr. Smith are urging parents to use this next week to discuss safety issues with their children and help familiarize them with their route to school. The Sheriff's Office and School District also are teaming up to circulate the following safety tips:
For Parents/Drivers
· If you drive your children to school, drop them off and pick them up as close to the school as possible. If the school has a drop-off area, be sure to use it.
· Drive defensively. Always anticipate the possibility that a small child may dart in front of your vehicle. Be prepared to stop at all times.
· Leave a few minutes early and plan for extra drive time to get to your destination.
· Slow down and watch out for school zones and children walking or biking to school or congregating near bus stops. Also, be alert for student drivers.
· Obey all posted speed limits.
· Be especially careful in areas with parked vehicles on the side of the road. Children crossing between vehicles may be difficult for you to see
· Remember that buses will be making frequent stops. It's not only dangerous to students, but it's against the law to pass a school bus while it's stopped on the roadway picking up or dropping off students. And this applies to traffic going in both directions — unless the road is divided by a raised barrier or an unpaved median at least five feet wide.
· When turning at an intersection, be sure to yield to pedestrians and cyclists.
· If your child is walking to school or a bus stop, plan a safe route and make sure your child knows the route and can navigate it safely. Choose the most direct route with the fewest street crossings. If a school crossing guard is available, be sure that your child crosses at that location. If your child is young or is walking to a new school, walk the route with them beforehand and continue to walk with them for the first week until they're comfortable with the route.
For Students Who Ride the Bus
· Stay out of the street while waiting for the bus.
· Wait for the bus to come to a complete stop and the doors open before approaching the bus from the curb.
· Make sure you remain in clear view of the bus driver. Never walk behind the bus.
· Look both ways before crossing the street to get on the bus.
· After getting off the bus, look both ways and then move immediately onto the sidewalk and out of traffic.
For Walkers/Bike Riders
· For bike riders, wear a properly-fitted helmet at all times. Research shows that this simple act can reduce the risk of head injury by up to 85 percent. Also, riders should use a bike that's the right size for them and make sure that they don't have any loose clothing, drawstrings or shoelaces.
· Bike riders should ride on the right, in the same direction as traffic, and use appropriate hand signals. Bicyclists also should respect traffic lights and stop signs.
· Walk or bike with a friend. It's safer that way.
· Walk on sidewalks where available.
· Always cross at intersections.
· Both bikers and walkers should wear bright clothing to make them more visible to drivers.
· To avoid distractions, bikers and walkers shouldn't use a cell phone or headphones.

I stock this item in my store for fall/winter. It is one of the most adorable sweaters I have seen! It looks quite warm, and looks good on the dog.
It does run a bit on the small size. I generally encourage customers to try on the next size up for comparison, in case it shrinks.
Pros: Adorable
Cons: runs on the small size

Re: Pros and cons of steel sailboats
This past year as been a huge learning curve for me. Find often need to depower the boat to keep the comfort level for my Admiral. We plan to be live aboards and cruise extensively so can't lose her. Thank you we're coming along nicely. Also commonly will experiment with trim just to learn what it does to vmg, comfort.leeway etc. Suspect when you pass boats you shouldn't often they are doing the same or just kicking back when the tunes have them distracted.. However, when myself or with experienced crew there is nothing as satisfying as sailing your boat well even if there is no other boat on the horizon. Think in life you compete with yourself not others.

This product was my introduction to probiotics. As most in here, I have recurring yeast infections. I was surprised the difference when taking them. I decided to take the 50 and 90 after trying the 15.
Excellent Product! | (Posted on 1/13/15)
Review by Mey
I am a 38 year old female and have been suffering from recurring yeast infections for over 20 years. My gyno even put me on a prescribed medication that did not work. I started to read about the probiotic online and decided to try it- To date (I have been taking it for approx. 8 months now) it works great - I think I've only had 1 infection in 8 months and that is because I went on vacation and forgot to take the probiotics with me. Before, I would get infections at least once a month , sometimes even 2 times a month. I love this product and highly recommend it to anyone suffering from the same issue I had!

Did you have a grand old time celebrating President's Day? However your day went, I'm pretty sure you had a far better one than the folks down at Burger King HQ, who were scrambling around all over the place trying to figure out what to do now that the franchise has been sold to McDonald's.
Yeah, you might've heard something along those lines, but I'm actually kidding, because it was all part of a huge prank.
By who, we don't know yet, although we're pretty sure McDonald's won't authorize such a daring move against one of their biggest competitors, cybercrime laws and all. Here's what happened: at 9AM PT, hacker group Anonymous did their thing and got into BK's Twitter account, where they changed the logo to that of McD's. They also sent out a press release announcing Burger King's newest product after the 'failed' Whopper: BK Bath Salts.
The fun went on for an hour or so, until Twitter decided to spoil everyone's fun by suspending the account. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. Police are hot on the heel of the perpetrators, and have released a sketch of the suspect:
