Great room, great price, Poor service, not clean..Posted Apr 2, 2015 on Hotels
The hotel was nice, the room was very spacious for the price, but not clean. Half of the people staffed to clean the rooms are pregnant,which may be the reason that it would be difficult to properly clean rooms that requires bending and reaching.. The customer service matched the cheap price,but the hotel itself especially the room was great...

Fall planting tips from the Henrico Master Gardeners
Now that the first frost has occurred and the garden has started dying back, it's time to start planting!
"Planting now gives trees and shrubs and spring-flowering perennials a jump on the game," said Henrico Extension Agent Lisa Sanderson.
"Your plants have the opportunity to get established before the heat and stress of late spring and summer."
Sanderson says that even though the plants are dormant during the winter, roots continue to grow, producing a more robust plant in the spring that is better able to withstand heat and drought.
Fall can also be a good time to purchase new plants.
"Some things aren't as readily available at other times of the year," said Sanderson. "If you want balled-and-burlapped trees and shrubs, you'll find the best selection now. They are dug in the fall when dormant and may not be as readily available for spring planting."
You might find some good bargains, too. Many retailers don't want to hold their plants over the winter so they'll reduce prices. But Sanderson says fall gardeners need to "shop well."
"You still need to evaluate the health of the plant," she said. In addition to looking at the plant above the soil, Sanderson said it's a good idea to look at the roots to make sure the plant is not root-bound, a condition that occurs when the plant has been in the container too long and the soil ball is a solid mass of roots.
"And don't forget to consider where you want to put the plant," said Sanderson. "How much sun do you get? How much space do you have, and how large is the plant going to get?"
"Avoid those impulse buys," she said.
The procedures for planting in fall are basically the same as for spring.
Start with a soil test to determine what soil amendments will be needed in the spring. Soil test kits are available at all Henrico public libraries or the Extension Office in the Human Services Building of the Henrico Government Complex. Henrico citizens are eligible for two free soil samples each year.
Test the planting site for good drainage by digging the hole for your plant and filling it with water. If it doesn't drain within 24 hours, you'll need to install a raised bed or find another location.
After planting, monitor your garden to make sure your plants are getting enough water. "These plants need an inch of water a week throughout their first season," said Sanderson. "Even during the winter, you should monitor moisture."
Mulch, applied no more than 2-to-3 inches deep, can be beneficial by helping to slow water loss from the soil and preventing alternate freezing and thawing.
Planting now can give your spring garden a head start!

2002 Ford Explorer Q&A
2002 Ford Explorer Question: Clutch fan
My clutch fan stays kick in most of the time .Is this a bad clutch on the fan or a sensor? - djsenterprises
Answer 1
If your cooling fan is engaged constantly, there is a good chance the engine is not warming up to normal operating temperature. If the engine does not reach temperature, you will not be getting the best fuel mileage you could be getting because the fuel injection will be operating as if the engine is cold. The Explorer seems to have a standard fan clutch. When the engine is off, and cold, you can normally feel how much resistance the fan has when you turn it. If the clutch is locked up, the fan will not turn or be very difficult to turn. Does the fan seem to be louder than usual? This is not an electric fan right? - Andy Y

Okanagan-Similkameen Regional District

Mar. 1, 1969
Quang Tri, Vietnam
George was the son of Paul W. Jmaeff and Helen Jmaeff of Osoyoos British Columbia Canada and he enlisted in the US Marine Corps on November 28, 1967 in Seattle WA. Arriving in Vietnam on July 2, 1968 he was assigned for duty with Company C, 1st Battalion, 4th Marines, 3d MARDIV (Rein) FMF in northern Quang Tri Province.
In January during Operation SCOTLAND II, Company C was searching the area of Dong Voi Mep in the Huong Hoa District of Quang Tri Province several kilometers south of the DMZ when Cpl Jmaeff a squad leader, on the point of his patrol observed a NVA squad concealed in the undergrowth and took them under fire. His actions foiled a planned enemy ambush and caused the enemy to withdraw. For his quick actions he would later be awarded the Bronze Star Medal.
On March 1, Company C was attached and under the OPCON (Operational Control) of the 3d Battalion, 4th Marines deployed as a reaction force with the mission of seizing Hill 484 Nui Cay Tre known as "Mutters Ridge" by the Marines which was located in the Huong Hoa District in Quang Tri Province. At approximately 1200 Hours as the lead platoon was moving uphill through the heavy undergrowth contact was made with the NVA who had concealed themselves in fortified positions. Heavy small arms and 60mm enemy mortar fire poured down on the Marines slowing their advance. Artillery fire was brought to bear on the enemy positions and the Company inched forward finally seizing their objective. Three men were killed in the fire fights with the NVA, one of the casualties was Cpl Jmaeff who was serving as a Platoon Sergeant, and he was killed in action as a result of an enemy gunshot wound. For his heroism he would be awarded the Navy Cross Medal.

last Friday. Something like this, "something big will happen next week." huhhhhhhhh....It is a week today and the only thing that happened was a VP. Need to hear something from Japan or the FDA. Not good to sit in calm waters too long...Right Stephen? Something has to give.
oh yes and Steve is here to save my lunch money... I get it! Thanks Steve, we really do appreciated it.
the VP is the newsLIVE IT UPLMAO
I heard it too in the interview with Carter. He talked about 2 independent groups that would be releasing important information this week.Seems like he wasn't exactly sure when they would release the info exactly, but he seemed to indicate that the important info would be released within a week.He sounded excited about the potential. Could have been an act, but maybe not.
I think the SVP announcement WAS the good news, dear...and it is good news, but that's obviously not the good news WE'RE looking for...however, i think the SVP news is a prelude to something bigger buit may not be as short term as we'd like it to be..

Two significant differences exist between the self-insured and insured firms the number of employees they have and the level of pre-injury earnings of their workers. In this chapter, we explore the differences in wage loss and replacement rates by firm size and by pre-injury earnings within the self-insured and insured firms.
This analysis has a twofold purpose: First, we wish to investigate whether subpopulations by firm size or pre-injury earnings reveal adequacy issues. Second, we wish to investigate whether differences in firm size or earnings within the self-insured and insured groups result in patterns of wage loss and replacement that are similar to the patterns revealed when insured and self-insured firms are compared.
This chapter concludes with a discussion of analyses (reported in more detail in Appendix A) that compare similarly sized and equal-paying firms that differ only in their insurance status.
Table 7–1 shows earnings losses and replacement rates for 1993 injuries at self-insured and insured employers by firm size quartile (number of employees).1 Firm size by the average number of employees within each quartile is reported in the first column of the table. As has been noted previously in this report, the size difference between self-insured and insured firms is clear. An average-size firm within the quartile of largest insured employers is still smaller than every self-insured firm except those in the quartile of smallest firms. At the 25th percentile, the size of self-insured firms is 4,705 employees (with the quartile below that having an average size of 1,715 employees), whereas at the 75th percentile insured firms have only 393 employees (with the top quartile having an average of only 3,932 employees).
If the lower proportional earnings losses at self-insured firms are in part attributable to firm size, we would expect to find that within both the self-insured and the insured firms proportional losses would be smaller the larger the employer. The information in Table 7–1 confirms this prediction, except that when moving from the lowest to the second lowest quartile of self-insured firms, increased firm size consistently leads to lower proportional earnings losses. However, self-insured firms in the lowest quartile in terms of size, which includes firms that on____________________

We went to Melbourne on a very packed weekend whereby all the hotels were booked. So this was a very good option. The kitchen is reasonable equipped. It is one of the places that was on the list for Skybus direct line so it was very convenient to get there from the airport.
Our flight arrived early morning but the place seemed to be full and we weren't able to check in till 1pm, although the staff tried their best. Megan, a kind staff was very helpful with all our needs throughout our stay.
Our apartment was at 241 City Road, MP deluxe. It seemed like a new building by Melbourne Shortstay Apartment so the tour we booked had a hard time locating us. Do point out the differences to your tour agency if you're planning on booking tours!
The location was a little far, situated away from flinders' street and the main city area. However it is a reasonably okay walk to the nearest tram station. There is also a supermarket nearby for families who may wish to cook some meals. We did not have time to try the gym and pool but it seemed well equipped too! Only issue was that one of the room that has the window did not seem to have good curtains to block out the lights in the morning and with an early sunrise in summer, it was a little too bright at 5am.
Overall a pleasant experience!

Bank of Albuquerque to Pay $230K to Settle EEOC Age and Sex Discrimination Lawsuit
News Source : Bank of Albuquerque to Pay $230K to Settle EEOC Age and Sex Discrimination Lawsuit
The EEOC is responsible for enforcing federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. The EEOC's Phoenix District Office has jurisdiction over Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, and part of New Mexico (including Albuquerque). Further information about the EEOC is available on its website at www.eeoc.gov.
Bank Fired Two Women Because of Age and Sex, Federal Agency Charged
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - BOK Financial Corporation, doing business as the Bank of Albuquerque, will pay $230,000 and furnish other relief to settle an age and sex discrimination lawsuit filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the federal agency announced today.
According to the EEOC's suit, the bank fired two managers, Elizabeth Morantes and Yolanda Fernandez, who were long-time employees, because of their gender and because they were over 40 years of age. The EEOC said the bank's purported reasons for firing the women were based on criteria that were not applied to younger male managers and employees.
Such alleged conduct violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex, and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act which bars discrimination on the basis of age, 40 and above.
The EEOC filed suit, EEOC v. BOK Financial Corporation dba Bank of Albuquerque, (CV 11-01132-ALB-RCB-LAM), in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Mexico in Albuquerque, after exhausting its conciliation efforts to reach a voluntary pre-litigation settlement.
Besides the monetary relief, BOK also agreed to refrain from any future discrimination; post an anti-discrimination notice; provide training; and to report to the EEOC on its compliance with these terms.
"Longtime employees should not be jettisoned because of their age or gender," said EEOC Regional Attorney Mary Jo O'Neill. "Such practices violate federal law as well as basic fairness."
Rayford O. Irvin, district director of the EEOC's Phoenix District Office, added, "We will continue to vigorously pursue our mission of fighting employment discrimination on all fronts, including discrimination based on both age and sex."
The EEOC is responsible for enforcing federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. The EEOC's Phoenix District Office has jurisdiction over Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, and part of New Mexico (including Albuquerque). Further information about the EEOC is available on its website at www.eeoc.gov.

"Good, heavy quality cardstock. I chose the teal option and find it to be both professional and eye-catching - I wanted a card that would be easy to find if flipping through a rolodex, since I don't have a logo, and this is exactly what I was looking for."
"The design was super easy to edit to reflect my contact information, and leave off what didn't apply (no job title, no fax, no headings on the back) They come in a nice sturdy little box to keep the cards neat & clean!"
"Despite the order not shipping when expected-Tiny Prints took the opportunity to make everything right about the experience. I ended up working with 2 different customer service reps throughout the process and they were both exceptional. They were helpful, service oriented, caring and professional. It tells me that the training received comes from the top down. And the best part is that I was extremely pleased with the product and would order from them again."
"I love this company. They always have fantastic designs and when I hand out business cards, people are always impressed. I'm a devoted customer."
"When these business cards I arrived, I was thoroughly delighted with the design and quality. They are top notch, classy, and something I will feel proud to hand out to people. I'm completely delighted!"

According tot he Wine Spectator: "Black cherry and strawberry flavors are ripe and sweet in this plump red, which has a plump texture and light tannins, with enough acidity to keep it fresh. Vanilla and toast notes add to the slightly hard candy character. Drink now through 2016." (Web only, 2012) K&L's Notes: This is a wonderful value for 2009. The wine is on the new wave side, with tons of ripe blackberry fruit on nose and palate. Sweet middle. Will drink great on release. A steal and sleeper of the vintage.

After months of review and investigation, a final report from the mayor's commission on homelessness was delivered to city hall Tuesday. 20 years ago, as a Lexington council member, Debra Hensley helped write a report which made similar recommendations. This time, Hensley, who also co-chaired this commission, has reason for optimism. "Having chaired a similar report in the 90's which produced a report with many of today's findings, like most of the other members I believe that this report holds the most promise of getting real results, if it is acted upon," said Hensley
A much anticipated report on homelessness in Lexington is due out Tuesday. The report, which was composed by members of a Mayor's Commission, will include strategies meant to reduce the number of homeless people. Commission Co-Chair Steve Kay says they hope to find funding, increase the number of affordable residences, and improve services available to people who could lose their homes.
Lexington's jail has been under new leadership for nearly a year. Much of that time has been spent rebuilding morale and staff. Rodney Ballard, with three decades of experience in law enforcement and corrections, took over as Community Corrections Director last spring. Ballard has put many inmates to work in the center's kitchen. Once they do their time, he hopes many can find jobs as cooks.
Benjamin Bond, 67, dropped by Lexington's Catholic Action Center at noon Wednesday to savor a bowl of hot chili and just enjoy being inside. Too cold out on the street, he said. Lexington's low temperature Wednesday morning was 10 degrees, according to the National Weather Service, and the day's high barely topped freezing. Another shot of bitterly cold air is expected Thursday.
Given the problems facing Kentucky agriculture, some city leaders in Lexington say it's time to legalize hemp. The Lexington council will soon consider a resolution drafted in support of hemp legalization. It calls on state lawmakers to act this session to allow hemp's cultivation. Council member Julian Beard believes it's a good idea. "For the farmers and the plight of the farmers, anything is an economic boost for them. You know it will take some time. It will never get up to the size tobacco was," said Beard.
In his annual speech on the condition of his community, Lexington Mayor Jim Gray says 'thinking and behaving like a mature city is our responsibility.' During the 'State of the Merged Government' address, Gray indicated he thinks it's occurring in central Kentucky. Lexington is a maturing city in many ways, according to its mayor. That includes its population. Mayor Gray announced Lexington officially has over 300-thousand residents. He also talked about job creation and efficient local government. Just last Friday, the city and its union agreed to a plan that stabilizes the underfunded police and fire pension fund. Now, Gray said there'll be more money for other projects.
While President Obama was inaugurated for a second time, towns all over Kentucky observed Martin Luther King Junior Day. Inspirational singing welcomed marchers as they gathered inside the corridor at Lexington's Heritage Hall. Just a few feet away from the song leader's microphone, Tiffany Cooper swayed back and forth. "I'm just excited that we are coming together as one body and as different cultures and to experience this historic event. And just to see everybody walking hand in hand, that's awesome. It just shows what God and can do and what Dr. Martin Luther King paved the way for," said Cooper.
A plan that stabilizes the pension fund for Lexington's police officers and firefighters has been negotiated. City and union leaders have signed off on the reforms. The downtown meeting room was jammed with labor leaders, retirees, council members, and city administrators for the announcement. Lexington Mayor Jim Gray told them the significance of the agreement can't be overstated. "It's not extreme or extravagant to say that this historic agreement that we are announcing today will save the Lexington police and fire pension system and reclaim our city's financial strength," said Gray.
The chief prosecutor in Fayette County hopes universal background checks can help prevent mass killings like those seen last year in Connecticut, Colorado and Wisconsin. Still, prosecutor Ray Larson calls gun restrictions that limit the ability of law abiding citizens to defend themselves "disgusting." Larson adds spotting a potential mass murderer is difficult.
Lexington fire officials are working on a staffing plan that should end the need for 'brown outs.' It may take about a year to fully implement a fix. For several months, Lexington has used 'brown outs' to cope with staffing shortages. Usually, it means taking fire trucks out of service. It can leave some neighborhoods with partial protection. Currently, Lexington has 482 firefighters. When that number increases to 536, Chief Keith Jackson says the brownouts should end.
For every $5 the city of Lexington spends, $1 goes to public pension obligations, proof that "our pension costs have spiraled out of control," Mayor Jim Gray said at a news conference Monday. Gray, Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer and other local government leaders spoke to urge the 2013 General Assembly to pass pension reform, which could include a reduction in retirement benefits and a massive infusion of extra state cash into the Kentucky Retirement Systems. The various pension funds of KRS have a $13.8 billion unfunded liability.
The New Year might have gotten off to a dreary start, with rain, sleet and snow overnight, but that's a contrast to 2012, which was the second-warmest year on record in Lexington, according to the National Weather Service. Last year's average temperature was 57.6, 2 degrees warmer than normal. Lexington's hottest year on record was 1921, at 58.5 degrees.
The delivery of electricity to Lexington homes could travel a new route in the years ahead. Instead of utility poles, some city leaders are more interested in underground power lines. Council member Bill Farmer says it needs to be part of Lexington's long term planning.. "Not just when a pole can go up or be changed, but for us to begin to think about when can one go down and be buried. I think this is an opening discussion about how we think about it from a policy standpoint and then an action standpoint after that," said Farmer.
This summer could seem like old times, times four, to Lexington's motorists. On average, Lexington spends about three million dollars a year repaving city streets. However, this summer the city will fund a four-fold increase in repaving projects in residential areas. Council member Bill Farmer says many of those repairs are long overdue.
A two-year debate over assigning street addresses in Lexington appears to be resolved. The discussion over how to re-number nearly 50 residences on Richmond Avenue centered on addresses with fractions. Lexington E- 9-1-1 director David Lucas says fractions can confuse emergency responders. However, some residents have fought city hall…hoping to maintain their unique addresses.
Temperatures across Kentucky have been anything but winter-like recently, but preparation for clearing roads of snow and ice goes on. In Lexington, city officials propose building a second salt storage barn on the east side of town. Streets and Roads Director Sam Williams says a site just off interstate 75 near Athens is being eyed to build on two-to-three years down the road. Williams says a interim salt barn might be set up near the Winchester-New Circle Road interchange.
Restoration work on a popular Lexington parking garage has some motorists scrambling for parking spots. The Annex Garage along Main Street was closed in early November. Normally, Lexington Parking Authority Director Gary Means says over six hundred vehicles parked there each day. "They come through the garage on a given day. And then you have at least 300 employees or monthly parkers that could park there on any given day. And there's only 380 spaces so it was a busy garage before we had to close it," said Means.
Hoping to get a better handle on Fayette County's need for social services, Lexington leaders are turning to student-researchers with the University of Kentucky. Some 21 agencies in Lexington were surveyed by three social work students from U-K. The first phase of their research was turned over this week to city leaders. They talked to representatives of the organizations supported by the city. Research supervisor Diane Loeffler says their aim is not to measure the number of people served by specific agencies. Loeffler predicts the data gathered will help the council reach out to more people in need.
There's movement in Lexington's dispute with a downtown homeless shelter. The operators of the Community Inn have dropped a lawsuit against the city. And the Lexington leaders are helping them find a new location. But, a resolution is likely still months away. City officials have given the operators of the Community Inn a list of new locations for the shelter. Lexington's Board of Adjustments revoked the Inn's permit in June….saying the facility violated zoning requirements. Initially, the Inn had until this Saturday to move. But, the city has extended the deadline until April and is now providing assistance.
Lexington's vacuum truck began collecting leaves this week. It's the start of a collection period that runs into December. Since leaves don't necessarily drop on a schedule, city Arborist Rob Allen says setting pick-up times can create a challenge. "We're trying to impose kind of a calendar deadline on an organic issue. For example, this year we had a drought followed by some pretty cool early fall weather, well that affects the timing of when the leave drops off the tree," said Allen.
With the Lexington's books "in the black," city leaders are celebrating. During a meeting today Mayor Jim Gray took the unusual step of offering formal comments. The mayor says the city collected nine-million dollars more than their original predictions. "In the financial world, in the private sector, a business would say, well we've turned it around. We've made a profit " said Gray.
A leading voice in on-line charitable giving welcomes Tuesday's national emphasis on donations. Now, with Black Friday and Cyber Monday behind us, it's time for Giving Tuesday. Charitable organizations in central Kentucky hope to tap into the holiday spirit Among the groups soliciting on-line gifts is the Blue Grass Community Foundation.
Lexington is losing a lot of trees to disease and poor placement near streets. City Forrester Tim Queary says too many trees are squeezed between sidewalks and the road. "We need seven feet at a minimum between the sidewalk and the curb if we want the tree to live a long healthy life. But right now in a new development, we only have five and a half feet," said Queary. Council member Kevin Stinnett says trees can be costly. Their leaves clogs storm sewers while low hanging limbs can block sidewalks and mailboxes.
An $80 million project will widen parts of New Circle Road in northwest Lexington and create a double-crossover diamond at Leestown Road. Those changes are part of a project that would alter some of Lexington's major arteries to "reduce traffic congestion and operational deficiencies on New Circle Road" and its interchanges, said Rob Sprague, design section supervisor for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet. Sprague said the project is expected to begin in the fall of 2013 and continue through the summer of 2016.
Inspectors in Lexington's Code Enforcement Department keep a busy schedule…inspecting thousands of structures annually. Code Enforcement Director David Jarvis told city leaders some 85 hundred properties were inspected in 2011. Some of the most nagging problems revolve around U-K students at the beginning and end of the semester in the disposal of items. Jarvis says any solution lies with their landlords.
Lexington's Council appears ready to lower the boom on car stereos. Earlier this year, members rejected a comprehensive noise ordinance package. Now, the provision governing loud car stereos has been resurrected. The council's Public Safety Committee approved the proposal this afternoon. Its sponsor is council member Tom Blues. "The principal addition here is to clarify the nature of the noise and also to reduce the distance over which the sound has to travel in order to be cited as a violation from 50 feet to ten feet," said Blues.
The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Council will have four new faces come January from districts where incumbents did not seek re-election. Meanwhile, eight incumbents, including four who faced challengers, won another two-year term. New members on the council include Shevawn Akers, who defeated Brannon Dunn in the 2nd District; Jennifer Scutchfield, who was unopposed in the 7th District; Jennifer Mossotti, who defeated Bill Polyniak in the 9th District; and Harry Clarke, who beat Steve Nelson in the 10th District.
Lexington Mayor Jim Gray announced Monday that Lexington is one of 20 finalists in a $9 million urban-innovation contest created by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg to inspire cities to generate bold ideas to solve major issues. Lexington's idea is to create CitizenLex.org, a Web site that offers a continuing way to tap into residents' ideas for innovative solutions to challenges facing the city and for improving city life.
Every day, more than 10,000 people go to work on Kentucky Thoroughbred farms, taking care of high-strung 1,000-pound animals, often in close quarters. But nobody seems to know how dangerous this work might be, keep statistics on accidents, or share methods that prevent them. This fall, the University of Kentucky has launched a multiyear study of the health and safety practices associated with the diverse workforce of the Thoroughbred industry, one of the state's top agricultural enterprises.
After 79 years of calling Woodford County its base of operations, the Kentucky United Methodist Homes for Children & Youth plans to move to neighboring Jessamine County. This past summer the nonprofit corporation that cares for abused, neglected or abandoned children purchased nearly 31 acres on Ashgrove Road in northern Jessamine for $915,000 from David and Alta Marshall. The property is just south of Brannon Crossing shopping center off U.S. 27.

Rotten: The whole gumbo lacks real zing.
Fresh: A good film from an accomplished director but one that is well down the list of his finest achievements.
Customer Reviews
This is a wonderful film! I am a big fan of James Lee Burke and this is a perfect rendition of "In the Electric Mist with Confederate Dead." Tommy Lee Jones makes a fine Dave Robicheaux, tortured, violent, loving, imperfect -- human. Much more believable than Alec Baldwin ("Heaven's Prisoners"). Though the book was written in 1993, the film adaptation has been updated to the present, reflecting the damage done to SW Louisiana by Katrina. Great cast, great soundtrack, beautiful photography. If people think it moves a little slow, they perhaps don't understand that viewers need to do a little of the work themselves. Great shots of the Louisiana countryside and the devastation on that delicate ecosystem done by the destructive forces of "civilization" and of nature itself. The film also thoughtfully treats the racial and social tensions in that neck of the woods, both past and present. The caste system is alive and well in Louisiana.
In the Electric Mist
Finally a movie that looks and sounds like SW Louisiana. I never read the book but the story pulled me in right away. Beautifully shot and the soundtrack is awesome. Honest performance, believable and heartbreaking. Too bad it did not get picked up for release, it most certainly should have.
If ya from da bayou and ya no longer in da bayou....
this movie will make ya homesick. I really enjoyed this flick. I like Tommy, he played a okay coonass good'ol'boy. I really came on here hoping to find the soundtrack for the movie which is very well done. This is one of those movies that you realize has to end, but you hope it doesn't too soon.

Mavs Heat Game 5
Video: Jason Terry sticks in the dagger
Jun 10, 2011, 8:50 AM EDT
On a night when there were hot shooters all over the court, Jason Terry was just ridiculous. He finished 8-of-12 shooting for 21 points. He was 5-of-9 from beyond 16 feet and he had key threes. But this is the one everyone will remember — the dagger three taken from roughly Fort Worth with a…

Jun 9, 2011, 5:50 PM EDT
This is the biggest game in LeBron James career. It may only be that way for a few days, but right now it is. He gets it. That's what he said at shootaround Thursday when asked about his "now or never" tweet, as reported by NBA.com's Hangtime blog. "It was a personal message to myself,"…

Jun 8, 2011, 4:27 PM EDT
Because somehow a Game 5 of the NBA finals with the series tied 2-2 isn't enough, there seems to be some manufactured drama going regarding LeBron James. And it isn't even his fault this time. First comes this from the Associated Press: Mavericks guard DeShawn Stevenson is directing some sharp words toward Miami's LeBron James…

Attack on Bryan Stow detailed
Aug 1, 2011, 3:32 PM EDT
There was an aborted bail-reduction hearing for one of the suspects in the Bryan Stow case today. But in the course of that hearing the details of the attack, as described by police and the prosecution, were revealed. And it's pretty awful.
Click through for the complete details, but the suspects allegedly committed at least four separate assaults in that parking lot that day, and went back to Stow and his friends after a brief initial encounter. Stow was apparently sucker punched, instantly lost consciousness, fell and had his hit the concrete with no ability to break his fall whatsoever. He was then kicked in the head multiple times.
Just sickening and terrible and it's times like these when I wonder how humanity has survived as long as it has.
- APBA Guy - Aug 1, 2011 at 3:47 PM
We'll see how sentencing goes. You may get even sicker. SoCal jails are full of guys in on two strike stuff, like two marijuana possessions. Heinous as their crimes are, brace yourself for some affront to the concept of justice during the prosecution and sentencing.
- koufaxmitzvah - Aug 1, 2011 at 4:31 PM
Something tells me sentencing goes off without a hitch. Whether they spend their entire sentence behind bars is another issue.
- florida727 - Aug 1, 2011 at 5:23 PM
I think a "just" sentence would be to drop them off in their Dodgers gear with signs held high identifying them as Stow's attackers… right outside AT&T Park, with no security in sight, just after a game. They could even limit the sentence to about, what, 10 minutes?
- brianbowman16 - Aug 1, 2011 at 7:08 PM
Then, and this may seem callous, dress them up in White Sox gear and drop them off in front of Comerica park here in Detroit, and my buddies and I will work out some some recession based frustration on those pieces of trash. the flight from Cali to the D would give them time to heal up before they got here and then we could start all over again.
All joking aside, those ba****ds should be banned from EVERY ball park for the rest of eternity. Baseball fans are generally like heavy metal fans around here, we wanna have a good time, not worry about if we gotta watch our backs and be on edge because of db's like those two
Get well Bryan, you gotta great 1st name, even though you spell it wrong

it was first reported that there were no witnesses because it was dark. now it comes out that stow had "friends" close enough to see his head bounce off the pavement . wow his friends must feel great and really manly. so theres a group of atleast 3 grown men and they let 2 sub-humans beat one of their party to death? IT IS amazing we have lasted this long. if i were stows family member i would want to go visit his buddies with a baseball bat

- drmonkeyarmy - Aug 1, 2011 at 5:56 PM
Amazingly bad way to make your point. It is fair to ask why his friends did nothing to prevent him from getting kicked in the head several times, though. That being said, these guys deserve some serious jail time. I believe I read somewhere that they both have a lengthy criminal history. 17-25 sounds about right to me. But like the guy wrote above, it will probably be a fraction of that due to the archaic 3 strike laws that only function to worsen already overcrowded prisons.
- florida727 - Aug 1, 2011 at 5:13 PM
Craig, thanks for keeping this story front-and-center. We don't get as many updates as they're probably seeing in the Bay Area. Regardless of the prison system situation in CA, I hope these idiots get what they deserve, if in fact they're proven to be the ones who did it (remember, they originally were suspecting a wrong guy; looks like they got it right this time though).
"dixon", that cage you referred to, I think it measures about 6′ x 8′ with vertical metal posts spaced about 4 inches apart all the way across, with no windows
Pretty sad that all you want to do is take your kids to a ball game and you even have to think about being safe.
- contract - Aug 1, 2011 at 5:30 PM
"and it's times like these when I wonder how humanity has survived as long as it has."
Humanity has survived this long because in the olden days filth like this was dealt with swiftly and severely. Predators should be dealt with the same whether they walk upright or on all fours.
- Jeff J. Snider - Aug 1, 2011 at 5:33 PM
I've always thought the penalty for attempted murder should be the same as for murder? Are you really less dangerous to society just because you accidentally didn't kill the guy you tried to kill?
- contract - Aug 3, 2011 at 3:28 PM
I agree. It never made any sense to me to reward incompetence with a lighter sentence.

Bone marrow drive energized for African Americans in Pittsburgh
Battling cancer and awaiting a bone marrow transplant, Rex Crawley died before he could complete his campaign to encourage black people to donate marrow and organs.
Friends of the community activist, though, are fulfilling his wish by holding a bone marrow donor drive that highlights a nationwide shortage of donors in the black community.
"It's been easy to galvanize the community because of the kind of person he was," said Howard Russell, 48, of the East Hills, one of the organizers and a close friend of Crawley's.
Thousands of people with leukemia and other blood diseases benefit every year from bone marrow transplantation, in which healthy blood-forming cells are put directly into a patient's bloodstream. Experts worry that too many sick people struggle to find a genetically compatible match. That's especially true among blacks because their genes tend to be more racially mixed, experts said.
"African-Americans unfortunately have the lowest chance of finding an available match," said Nadya Dutchin, national accounts representative of Be The Match, a nonprofit that recruits marrow donors nationwide.
Crawley underwent a transplant in the 1990s with bone marrow he donated himself because he could not find a match. He expected to donate his marrow, possibly this month, for a transplant before he succumbed to cancer. He left behind a wife, Daria, 50, and two sons, Xavier, 6, and Vaughan, 11 months.
"I know in heaven he's smiling and happy that this vision of his is getting done," Daria Crawley, an associate professor of management at Robert Morris University, said about her husband's friend's taking up the reins of the campaign for him.
The deaths of three prominent black leaders in Western Pennsylvania energized the campaign's supporters. The dead include: Crawley, a professor of communication at Robert Morris and co-director of the Black Male Leadership Development Institute, who died Nov. 25 at the age of 49; Bernadette Turner, executive director of Addison Behavioral Health, who died Dec. 26 at 42; and Sylvester Pace, president and CEO of the Negro Educational Emergency Drive, who died June 8, 2012, at 58. All were awaiting a bone marrow transplant.
"Anytime you lose people of this magnitude, it hurts," said Russell, owner of a private equity firm. "They were great people who were doing wonderful things here."
Russell is working on the campaign with local chapters of black fraternities and sororities known as the Divine 9, the UPMC Center for Inclusion and Engagement and Be The Match, the national bone marrow registry based in Minneapolis.
"No sooner than the morning that Rex had passed, Howard reached out and he said, 'Don't worry about this thing. We'll carry on and do what Rex wanted us to do,' " Dutchin said.
Two ways to donate include a nonsurgical procedure called peripheral blood stem cells, or PBSC, in which blood cells are collected from the blood. A less common, surgical procedure takes place in an operating room. Because tissue types are inherited, it's important to match patients with donors of their own race or ethnic group.
Dutchin said it is important not only for people to sign up, but also to follow through with the donation.
"Everyone always thinks someone else will do it, but it may be you," she said. "Your genetics may be so unique that you may match a patient who's waiting for you."
A training session on how to register marrow and organ donors is scheduled to happen at 7 p.m. Jan. 23 at Mt. Ararat Baptist Church in Larimer. It will be followed by a drive to sign up potential donors Feb. 13 and 14 at sites and times to be determined.
Robert Morris will hold a memorial service for Crawley at 4 p.m. Feb. 7 in Sewall Center on the campus, where details of signing up for the registry will be discussed.

TribLive commenting policy
You are solely responsible for your comments and by using TribLive.com you agree to our Terms of Service.
We moderate comments. Our goal is to provide substantive commentary for a general readership. By screening submissions, we provide a space where readers can share intelligent and informed commentary that enhances the quality of our news and information.
While most comments will be posted if they are on-topic and not abusive, moderating decisions are subjective. We will make them as carefully and consistently as we can. Because of the volume of reader comments, we cannot review individual moderation decisions with readers.
We value thoughtful comments representing a range of views that make their point quickly and politely. We make an effort to protect discussions from repeated comments either by the same reader or different readers.
We follow the same standards for taste as the daily newspaper. A few things we won't tolerate: personal attacks, obscenity, vulgarity, profanity (including expletives and letters followed by dashes), commercial promotion, impersonations, incoherence, proselytizing and SHOUTING. Don't include URLs to Web sites.
We do not edit comments. They are either approved or deleted. We reserve the right to edit a comment that is quoted or excerpted in an article. In this case, we may fix spelling and punctuation.
We welcome strong opinions and criticism of our work, but we don't want comments to become bogged down with discussions of our policies and we will moderate accordingly.
We appreciate it when readers and people quoted in articles or blog posts point out errors of fact or emphasis and will investigate all assertions. But these suggestions should be sent via e-mail. To avoid distracting other readers, we won't publish comments that suggest a correction. Instead, corrections will be made in a blog post or in an article.
