Vendor Managers in the United States pull down an average of $70K per year. With some bonuses and profit sharing proceeds approaching $20K each, total incomes of Vendor Managers generally range from $41K to $121K depending on individual performance. While the particular city and the specific company impact pay for this group, experience level is the most influential factor. Almost all enjoy medical while a large number get dental coverage. Vision coverage is also available to a fair number. Most Vendor Managers report high levels of job satisfaction. Male Vendor Managers who responded to the survey are more common than women; more than half (61 percent) are men. The data for this snapshot was collected from individuals who took PayScale's salary survey.

A vendor manager oversees the relationship between their business and its vendors (or suppliers). They manage these relationships from the start of the contract through the sales process and after, when a financial analysis may be of strategic assistance. These professionals must provide analyses to their organization on vendors, oversee costs, and ensure the terms of contracts are followed by all parties. They should also be able to identify trends related to product needs for their employer. Vendor managers must be able to build positive relations with new vendors and maintain good relationships with existing ones as well.Read More...
A vendor manager may be someone directly employed with a single company, or they may work as a subcontractor for several different companies. Typically vendor managers work full time in an office setting. This may be in the same location as the business in which they are performing services (an "in-house" vendor manager), or the vendor manager might have their own office location because they are working simultaneously with several companies.
Educational and experience requirements vary for this position depending on the company. However, a bachelor's degree relevant to their field of work is generally needed. Previous experience in a similar role is generally needed as well. Vendor managers must have excellent interpersonal skills, as they work with a variety of internal and external professionals on a regular basis. Excellent multitasking skills and good attention to detail are needed as well.
Vendor Managers note just a narrow range of job skills. Most notably, skills in Contract Negotiation, Vendor Relations, Business Analysis, and Vendor Management are correlated to pay that is above average, with boosts between 5 percent and 12 percent. For most people, competency in Contract Negotiation indicates knowledge of Business Analysis.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
In general, experience and pay appear to be strongly linked; those with more experience usually bring in higher incomes. Respondents with less than five years' experience take home $59K on average. In contrast, those who have been around for five to 10 years earn a noticeably higher average of $77K. On average, Vendor Managers make $88K following one to two decades on the job. Deeply experienced professionals who boast more than 20 years of experience haul in an ample $101K on average.
Surpassing the national average by 32 percent, Vendor Managers in Seattle receive some of the highest pay in the country. Vendor Managers will also find cushy salaries in Atlanta (+3 percent) and Minneapolis (+3 percent). Place of residence plays a huge part in a Vendor Manager's salary, with San Francisco Vendor Managers earning salaries that are 20 percent less than the national average. New York and Charlotte are a couple other places where companies are known to pay below the median — salaries are 20 percent lower and 13 percent lower, respectively.

Alexis Neiers Arrested With Black Tar Heroin
Alexis Neiers, star of the short-lived reality series, has been arrested after violating her probation by never checking in with officials following her July release from jail.
Neiers, an alleged member of the burglary group known as the "Bling Ring," who made headlines for robbing celebrities, served 30 days of a six-month sentence following her arrest for participating in the burglary of Orlando Bloom's home.
When police arrived at Neiers' home this morning to serve their arrest warrant, they found not only the 19-year-old model but her stash of drugs as well, TMZ reports.
Neiers, who spent the final five days of her jail stint in a cell next to Lindsay Lohan (a victim of the "Bling Ring"), was reportedly found in possession of black tar heroin when the police searched her home.
If convicted, Neiers could serve upwards of a year in prison.

I'm right there with you. She gets 6 mo for burglary and serves 30 days? Joe Schmoe would wait 30 days for a trial date and get 3 yrs. upon his conviction. Jose Schmoe even more. Then violate probation by not checking in and gets caught with junk? And she MIGHT get UP TO a year. Ol' Joe'd be looking at 6 to 10 and end up serving every day of it.

Some people are so stupid. Los Angeles probation is a joke. They are so over worked you just need to report when told and keep out of serious trouble (little things rarely cause a violation). They do not like to be ignored because it causes work. She needs to bail out and check into rehab now and maybe she won't go back to jail.

Put the spoiled little sh*t back in jail just like it would happen for a normal person and charge her for the drugs too.

Black Tar heroin isn't a casual drug. There is a chance she subconsciously wanted to get arrested and jailed so she could kick the habit. You might have trouble getting into a rehab on your own if you aren't rich or famous,but if a court orders a prisoner into rehab they get in right away.
Back when I was trying to kick tobacco I wished it were possible to get locked up in a room and sedated for a week to kick the urge to smoke. If you can make it for a week you can make it.

Japan : AREVA Develops Two Innovative Solutions for Contamination Monitoring Business Wire PARIS -- December 10, 2012 Regulatory News: AREVA (Paris:AREVA), together with its Japanese partner Chiyoda Technol Corporation, has developed a Field Monitoring Vehicle (FMV) allowing fast and detailed contamination mapping of exposed areas. This vehicle has successfully achieved the testing phases and is nowavailable for an utilization by Fukushima authorities and the response team working in the region. The FMV consists of a tractor and its trailer with an ambient dose rate probe and a device to measure ground contamination onboard. Contamination data are recorded together with GPS data, enabling precise mapping of the activity of the areas monitored. Field tests have been performed in Japan for several weeks leading to a recent final demonstration to end-users close to the so called "20km area". In addition, together with Japanese partners Atox and Pasco, AREVA is developing an unmanned helicopter dedicated to the monitoring of contamination in forest areas. Combining the engineering skills of AREVA, the mapping expertise of Pasco and Atox's practical capability for ground monitoring, the helicopter will allow to map the levels of contamination in regions that are inaccessible to man or ground vehicles. "These two new developments for establishing a detailed contamination mapping of exposed areas, illustrate once again that AREVA is committed to continue to contribute to the rehabilitation of the Fukushima region and to remain a strategic partner of Japan's nuclear industry", said Luc Oursel, AREVA's CEO, during his visit to Japan. MORE ABOUT AREVA supplies solutions for power generation with less carbon. Its expertise and unwavering insistence on safety, security, transparency and ethics are setting the standard, and its responsible development is anchored in a process of continuous improvement. Ranked first in the global nuclear power industry, AREVA's unique integrated offering to utilities covers every stage of the fuel cycle, nuclear reactor design and construction, and related services. The group is also expanding its operations to renewable energies – wind, solar, bioenergies, hydrogen and storage – to be one of the leaders in this sector worldwide. With these two major offers, AREVA's 48,000 employees are helping to supply ever safer, cleaner and more economical energy to the greatest number of people.

The Lady Mustangs (19-10) go for their 20th win at about 6:15 p.m. when they host Miles at the SHS gym. Sweetwater, which has not reached the 20-victory plateau since 2008, saw its most recent action Satur-day when it played a dual match in Lubbock.
The Lady Mustangs were pushed to the limit when they rallied for a 3-2 win over Lubbock Monterey, then lost by a 3-1 margin against Lubbock Cooper as they fell by scores of 18-25, 25-21, 15-25, 15-25.
Sweetwater High SchoolŌĆÖs freshman and junior varsity football teams were winners this past Thursday at home.
The freshmen defeated Breckenridge 32-16, while SweetwaterŌĆÖs JV squad beat Breckenridge 14-2.

the committee a strong base of understanding regarding risk perception and how such perceptions can be lessened or made worse (Appendix A). Of special value was a better understanding of how the study of risk communication could aid the committee in framing conclusions about exposure and disease in ways, and in language, that would be least likely to increase the perception of risk already felt by the veterans.
Finally, the committee sought input from a bioethicist regarding the conduct of the WWII experiments. The primary motivation for this request was the committee's wish to inform itself about the ethical and legal issues of informed consent and to explore what its responsibilities may be from a bioethical viewpoint, as physicians and scientists confronted with unanticipated and disturbing information about these testing programs. Professor Jay Katz from Yale University met with the committee in June 1992 to outline the history and development of the Nuremberg Code of 1947 and its ethical and legal ramifications, especially as they might apply to the issues in the present study (Appendix A; see also Appendix F). In addition, Dr. Katz commented about the way the experiments were conducted, the secrecy of the experiments, and the lack of medical follow-up of the human subjects, and urged the committee to take a strong stand on these issues. His presentation was followed by a letter further explicating his view that the committee would miss an important and needed opportunity if it simply completed an isolated survey of the scientific and medical literature, without comment on the experiments themselves. This letter is included in Appendix H.
The committee has drawn valuable information and guidance from the presentations described above. This report, its contents and its recommendations, reflects long and careful consideration of all the issues and suggestions, much discussion, and a final consensus. The inclusion of information about how the experiments were conducted and the medical treatment afforded to the human subjects is based on what the committee believes to be justified scientific, as well as humanitarian and ethical grounds.

Finnish rally driver Tapio Laukkanen is among the three foreigners expected to take part in this weekend's 33rd KCB Guru Nanak Rally set for Kedong and Suswa areas.
Tapio, who won the Finnish Rally Championship in a Volkswagen Golf GTi in 1996 and the British Rally Championship in 1999 with a Renault Mégane Maxi, will drive a Subaru Impreza N16 under the Multiple Racing Team (MRT) livery.
Although this is Tapio's first rally in Kenya, he is no stranger to the local rally circles, having serviced and trained KNRC Division Two contender Manvir Singh Baryan.
Tapio is well versed with the Kenyan terrain and will be among the top drivers to watch. According MRT team manager Clive Critchlow, Tapio will be navigated by Harri Kaapo also from Finland.
After weeks of meticulous preparations and focus, Kabras Sugar Racing and Menengai Oil Racing teams have pronounce themselves ready for the 33rd KCB Guru Nanak Rally slated for Kedong and Suswa territory on November 18.
Elsewhere, the 2004 Guru Nanak rally champion Baldev 'Boldy' Chager is planing to make a repeat performance during the event.
Chager is among the three top drivers being sponsored by Kabras Sugar. The Western Province-based company will be enter three identical hi-tech Subaru N16 contraptions with the other two being driven by Tejvir Rai and KNRC 2011 Division 2 champion Onkar Rai.
Chager, the 2008 Kenya national champion, will be targeting to eclipse speed merchants Carl Tundo, Ian Duncan and Alastair Cavenagh in the season-closing podium dash while the Rai siblings will be looking to wrap it up in top 10. Boldy, who is the 2007 Motor Personality-of-the-Year, won the Guru Nanak in 2004 in a Subaru hatchback navigated by the late Farakh Yusuf.
He will attempting a repeat performance in a state-of-the art Subaru , this time round, with 1998 KNRC Navigators champion Raju Sehmi.
"The Subaru N16 seems to be getting more reliable over time. After plenty of research and thought they are now performing. My Subaru has proven to be very fast on smooth flowing stages but still seems to lack the edge on jumps and extreme rough conditions. This year not many events have favoured the N16 as it's been rough and full of big jumps," commented Chager.
Tejvir is determined to end the gremlins which have stymied his run for the better part of the season. "Its been a horrible season with too many mechanical problems and a disaster in Safari. I have had issues with the gear-box and been off the top ten pace the whole season. A good clean finish and a top ten would be great in Guru Nanak," said Tejvir.

Philip Lorin Luce
October 18, 1923 - December 03, 2012
Philip Lorin Luce, a lifelong resident of Plainfield, IL, passed away peacefully on December 3, 2012 at Rosewood Care Center, Joliet. He was born in Plainfield on October 18, 1923. He was 89 years old.
Philip is survived by his loving nieces and nephew, Cynthia (Dwight) Coords, Judith (Morrie) Zollner and James (Holly) Luce; many grand-nieces and grand-nephews and numerous cousins. He was preceded in death by his parents, Wilbur and Muriel (nee Griggs) Luce and a brother, George Luce..
Philip was a graduate of Plainfield High School, class of 1941. A man of deep religious conviction, he became a member of the First Baptist Church on June 25, 1933 and was an AWANA leader, an usher and its financial secretary during the 1980s. He was honored for his faithful service to the Gideons Ministry and attended the monthly meetings for nearly 50 years. He assisted his father on Plainfields first ambulance service, and at the Luce Funeral Home and Furniture Store for over 19 years. Philip possessed a wealth of knowledge about Plainfield and was able to recall specific details of events.
After being raised in a home with Christian parents and having Christian grandparents too, as well as the teaching and preaching from my Sunday school teacher and Pastor, I realized in the fall of 1932 that I needed to accept Christ as my Lord and Savior. So I did accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior that fall. I am now thankful for all He has done for me since I made my decision and for all the promises in His Word that refer to the future. Philip L. Luce.
Funeral Information
Visitation will be Saturday, December 29, 9:00 until 11:00 AM at the Overman-Jones Funeral Home & Cremation Services, Plainfield. Funeral Services will begin at 11:00 AM in the funeral home chapel. Interment will follow at the Plainfield Township Cemetery.
Donations Information
For those who would like to leave a lasting tribute to the life of Philip L. Luce, memorials may be directed to First Baptist Church, 4295 Van Dyke Rd, Minooka, IL 60447 or Gideons International, Joliet Camp 1215.

In July, Em was diagnosed with eosinophilic esophagitis and put on a strict diet that excludes soy, eggs, dairy, gluten, fish, and nuts. In September, it was determined that she has life-threatening allergies to eggs, peanuts, and tree nuts. In the days leading up to Halloween, people asked me how I was planning on dealing with it – was I nervous? did I think Em would be disappointed she couldn't eat her treats?
The short answer is "no" to both questions.
I am all about managing expectations. A week before Halloween, I bought Em a box of Skittles/Starburst and told her that it would be her Halloween candy because it is safe for her. Throughout the week, I reminded her we'd be swapping her trick-or-treats with the candy I had bought for her.
When Halloween arrived, the kids got dressed up, and we hit the streets (in the pouring rain). The first house we went to gave Em a chocolate bar. She burst into tears. "Mommy, she gave me a chocolate bar! I can't eat that!" I reminded her that she had lots of candy waiting for her at home and that we're just trick-or-treating because it is fun! The next house was a bag of chips. She looked disappointed, but quietly said "thank you." As the night progressed, she seemed to stop noticing what people were giving her, focusing on pumpkins, and decorations, and yelling "trick or treat!" When their bags were heavy with loot and hands bitten by the cold, we headed home.
After shedding her shoes and rain-drenched costume, Em ran into the living room and dumped her bag of loot on the floor while I fetched the Skittles/Starburst (and some additional last minute treats I had gotten). She looked at the pile and said "I can't eat any of this." Aside from a couple of packages of Skittles and Swedish Berries, she was right. She gave her haul to her brother and we dumped all her safe candy into her bag. She eagerly selected some things to eat and that was that.
Though we are mostly an allergen-free household, we did keep the candy she can't eat. I took out anything with peanuts (for me), and Q got the rest.
All in all, it went smoothly and I am pleased with her reaction to a less-than-ideal Halloween experience.

DAVE KING has vowed to lift the lid on everything that has gone on behind the scenes at Rangers during the course of the club's catastrophic meltdown and chase down anyone he feels has been guilty of impropriety.
A SCOTS MP is to raise questions in the Commons about whether Mike Ashley is a fit and proper person to run Rangers and other clubs after he was accused of deplorable behaviour over his treatment of workers at his collapsed clothing firm.
Former Rangers owner Craig Whyte has been arrested in the UK following his detention by police in Mexico.
Former Rangers owner Craig Whyte is reportedly making plans to return to the United Kingdom and assist police with investigation into the takeover of the club in 2011.

Re: Windows 7 Beta leaked
I WAS a big fan of moving to x64 but found it to be nothing more than a headache. Performance in CPU intensive apps if x86 coded sucked. There aren't enough native x64 apps to make it worth my while. I also couldn't print to a shared printer attached to an x86 Vista machine. I liked using my extra ram however, but meh.
After using betas of W7 from 6801 up I've realized x64 at this time is still nothing more than a marketing ploy. Sure it sounds good but unless developers start writing x64 versions of everything the WOW emulation just kills the performance of alot of x86 applications. Winrar, QuickPar run extremely slowly in x64 vs x86 and when I've got 10 - 20GB files I'm extracting or repairing it can be extremely time consuming on x64. To date there are no x64 applications for either of those apps. Like you guys mentioned there are a few apps that DO benefit from x64 but those are few and far between and not worth losing the performance that the others lose.
As for the networking in Windows 7 I've had no issues sharing with XP and Vista at all. In fact I found it to be superior to Vista's networking which did have issues sharing with XP machines.
Looks like tomorrow build 7000 is to be released to the public for consumption. I've been running 7000 as my only OS since I've gotten it. I love it. Everything works and I've found the OS to run very, very well. Faster than XP even. I've finally found a worthy replacement to XP. I urge you guys to all try it, you will see that Windows 7 is the superior Windows Operating system. I've been able to run W7 on my laptop with only 1GB of ram. Something Vista wasn't able to do well. Vista was awful on my laptop, but W7 is as snappy as XP has been on my laptop.

Well, I was thinking since heroes Marvel Comics would normally have contact numbers to call or text each other but has there someone who actually called or texted Storm about changing the weather so that perhaps to make it easier for the heroes to capture an enemy or there's a flood and they would call for Storm's help to drain or dry it up?
Has anybody called Storm thru cellphone about changing d weather?

Coloured scanning electron micrograph of a daddy-long-legs spider (Pholcus phalangioides). Its eight eyes (yellow) are seen at centre. This spider preys on other spiders, injecting them with venom from its fangs (bottom centre). Although native to the tropics it is now a common site in houses worldwide. The daddy-long-legs spider is so called because its legs are around 5 to 6 times the length of its body. This spider should not be confused with the harvestman, a relative of the spiders in the order Opiliones, or the crane fly (family Tipulidae), which are also known as daddy-long-legs

This is so upsetting. I haven't received any of the apology emails that were reported on, and starting today I am now part of the dreaded "1%". Yeah, Apple, it's probably MUCH more than that. My account was scheduled to renew next month, but I will definitely cancel my subscription after all this. So sad.
UPDATED: MobileMe Answers? Server Down and Fiber Optic Line Cut?
UPDATE: Ask and you shall receive-ish. Apple has posted a Knowledge Base article detailing (part of?) the problem (via Macrumors):
Symptoms Updated: July 22, 2008, 4 p.m. PDT. On Friday, July 18, 2008 (2008-07-18) we experienced a serious issue with one of our MobileMe mail servers. This issue is currently affecting approximately 1% of MobileMe members. Affected members are unable to send or receive email at www.me.com or access email using any email client software such as Mail on a Mac or Microsoft Outlook on a PC. Products Affected MobileMe Mail Resolution We understand this is a serious issue and apologize for this service interruption. We are working hard to restore your service.
Original post after the break...
MobileMe problems continue to mount, user frustration levels continue to rise, and Apple continues to not realize they're becoming a "big company" and along with scaling infrastructure to support a growing user base, their traditional veil of secrecy won't be tolerated by the larger market they want to play in -- especially the enterprise.
Despite Apple's lack of anything approaching a communication strategy (not only for customers, but apparently for their own front-line support people as well), Apple Insider has managed to glean at least some information about what's going on.
Problem the first: a fiber optic cable was cut during maintenance, and has since been repaired.
Problem the second: a mail server went down on Friday and attempts to bring it up have only resulted in more problems.
While these issues can and will arise (Twitter is newsworthy now when it stays up for a couple of days, Amazon S3 went down for a while over the weekend, cables were cut taking whole regions out earlier in the year, etc.), Apple needs to step up on the customer service end, and with more than just small notices on account pages reading: 1% affected.
Wanna play with the big boys in the cloud, you gotta follow the big boy rules on accountability. If it helps, just think of this as a user experience issue, and slap a shiny interface on the problem reporting and resolution system, b'okay?

UPDATED: MobileMe Answers? Server Down and Fiber Optic Line Cut?
The most frustrating part is that it's not just 1%. Everyone I know with a .mac email address is not able to access said email. Apple is lying to us. They lure you in with all these promises of syncing your entire life up in the heavens and then instead a big dark cloud moves in and rains on your email parade.
1% is still thousands of people. Personally, I haven't had any problems, but 1% of their user base is huge.
It's not EVERYONE with a .Mac address.
Over the past two weeks, my email has been down for three hours.
That having been said, Apple really does need to do a better job of communicating with their users, but I guess I've grown immune as they never discussed problems when they would occasionally have .Mac email outages either.
The fact that MobileMe was promoted as a cloud solution and is heavily linked to use with the iPhone has simply made some long-standing policies that much more public.
It is now 8 days!!!! I have never heard of such a thing! The communication is pathetic. This has caused even more frustration than lack of mail. Who is their PR company?? They should be fired.
Ten days with no email received and no response from apple. Hate to pile on with just one more complaint, but not even being able to tell a customer what the problem is or when it will be fixed is unacceptable and unprofessional to say the least. Never thought I would say it, but Apple is not what I thought it was on so many levels. To bad to tarnish your company's image with such an unreliable product launch. You would have thought that there was some redundancy and that they would have "tested" the product before releasing it to millions of customers.

Originally written on Fox Sports South | Last updated 3/27/12
KINGSTON, R.I. (AP) -- Tiffany Hayes scored 22 points and top-seed Connecticut beat Kentucky 80-65 on Tuesday night to advance to the Final Four for the fifth straight season. Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis added 18 for UConn (33-4), which will play the winner of Notre Dame and Maryland on Sunday in Denver. The Huskies matched their own school mark of five straight trips to the national semifinals. LSU and Stanford have also accomplished the feat. Unlike their previous four trips to the regional finals, which were quick blowouts, the Huskies had to work hard to pull away from the Wildcats. UConn led 48-47 early in the second half before turning up its defense. The Huskies used a 21-4 spurt to take command. Hayes, the lone senior on the team, was the catalyst, scoring seven points during the run. She got it started with a lay-in. Then the Huskies started a parade to the free throw line, with whistle after whistle. The Huskies converted 12 free throws during the game-changing run. Hayes w...

NFL Pick: Tennessee Titans @ Houston Texans Preview
- Updated: December 27, 2011
The Tennessee Titans will look to stay in the AFC playoff picture in Week 17's NFL betting action when they take to the road against the AFC South winners, the Houston Texans.
The Titans need a win in this game in the 1:00 hour to make it so they can watch the 4:00 games with some rooting interest. A win by the Titans parlayed with losses by Cincinnati Bengals, the New York Jets, and either the Denver Broncos or Oakland Raiders will get them into the playoffs, but without the first step, none of it means anything. This is a team that just hasn't looked right over the course of the past few weeks. Sure, Tennessee knocked off the Jacksonville Jaguars last week at home, but before that, there were two straight losses to the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts. The offense hasn't scored more than 23 points in a game since November 13th, and in that stretch, the defense has played okay, allowing no more than 27 in any of the duels, but it hasn't held a team under 17 either. QB Matt Hasselbeck could be playing in the last meaningful game of his career. He has thrown for 3,274 yards and 16 TDs against 14 INTs, but those numbers just aren't going to get him another job next year, especially with the Titans, who have committed their future to rookie QB Jake Locker.
This is definitely a good news, bad news situation for the Texans. The good news is that they have already locked up their No. 3 seed in the AFC playoffs, and they can't move up or down from here regardless of the result in the regular season finale. The bad news is that the team is in terrible form, having lost back to back games against the Carolina Panthers and the Indianapolis Colts. Defensive Coordinator Wade Phillips has been away from the team for two weeks dealing with medical issues, but he should be back in the box calling plays once again this week, which should help out dramatically. He'll hope to get back on the field for the first playoff game in franchise history this week. WR Andre Johnson, who has been battling hamstring injuries all year, should be back in the fold as well, though he will clearly be limited if he plays since this one doesn't mean anything to the team, save for carrying some momentum into the postseason. QB TJ Yates probably won't do a heck of a lot in this one, and nor should RBs Ben Tate and Arian Foster. With all of the injuries that this team has taken over the course of the year, any more knocks could be a horror for the postseason.
Tennessee Titans @ Houston Texans Trends: The first time these two teams met this year, Houston ran away with a 41-7 triumph to stop what was a growing skid. From that point on, it won seven in a row and covered six of the seven before losing these two games consecutively. Houston is still 6-1-1 ATS in its last eight games overall. The underdogs have covered 11 of the last 16 in this series, a trend that the Titans have to bust if they want to have a shot at making the postseason. The 'over' has cashed in eight of the last 11 meetings of these AFC South rivals, but the 'under' is 8-0-1 in the nine games that the Titans have played since taking on the Texans at LP Field.

Texans agree to deals with WR Jones, lineman Butler
Texans agree to deals with Jones, Butler
Team retains two of its key free agents
JOHN McCLAIN
, Copyright 2011 Houston Chronicle |
July 27, 2011
Photo By Brett Coomer/ChronicleIn 2010, Rashad Butler (78) served as the backup to left tackle Duane Brown and right tackle Eric Winston.
The Texans have agreed to new contracts with receiver Jacoby Jones and offensive tackle Rashad Butler, two of their four key free agents.
Jones agreed to a three-year contract worth $10.5 million, with $3.5 million guaranteed.
Butler agreed to a two-year deal worth $3.8 million, with a $1.25 million signing bonus.
Butler, who was an unrestricted free agent, made $1.176 million in 2010, when he served as the backup to left tackle Duane Brown and right tackle Eric Winston. Butler started four games when Brown was suspended for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy.
With the NFL lockout having ended Monday, Tuesday marked the first day teams could negotiate with their free agents and those from other teams. No free-agent signings can take place until Friday. Thus, Jones and Butler can't sign until then.
The Texans are hoping to re-sign fullback Vonta Leach and quarterback Matt Leinart. Leinart is supposedly considering Seattle and Washington.

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Film equals jobs. That's what hundreds of people were chanting at today's NC Film rally downtown.
Film industry employees and supporters worried about their future came out in full force. Organizers says more than 1,000 people turned out.
Signs, T-shirts and even some costumes supporting the film incentive could be seen all along Water Street.
Rep. Susi Hamilton (D-18th District) says there is no reason the state should pull the rug out from under more than 4,000 people's jobs.
"Forty-two-hundred Jobs in the state of North carolina that are clean jobs, well paying jobs. It will be a large sucking sound," Hamilton said. "They'll all be going to Georgia, South Carolina, Louisiana."
Hamilton says the average wage for film workers is about $20,000 higher than the average state income.
Opponents to the tax incentives for film projects scheduled their own counter protest at the same time as the film rally around the corner at Front and Market streets, but according to a Facebook post, the even was canceled.

Takes awhile to figure out [or guess] why Hexie does some of the things it does but it would seem to be that:
When naming Shading Domains, do not give them the same name as each other UNLESS you can also assign to them each the exact same "material". If one has a long list of materials, the choice list does NOT scroll and one can't.
The act of just naming it the same and agreeing to the reassignment of colours doesn't save through.
If exporting said .obj, when importing it and/or when closing and reopening Hexagon one will find the 'same name' Shading Domains did not merge neatly into one ... indeed you wouldn't believe the mess it made of mixing up PARTS of other shading domains with those that had been named the same. Some of the Shading Domains were given material names ... oh what a mess!
Incre Saves cannot be over stressed ... VERY important!
Just to access the materials list, for this particular project I'll have to be exporting out individual groups, importing them into a fresh load of Hexagon, making the name changes, exporting out the new .obj groups. Back in main project file, deleting the old and importing in the new.

37 year old man | Weymouth, MA, USA | Seeking women 25-33 in Massachusetts, United States
My words might not be magic but they cut straight to the truth. So if you need a lover and a friend. Baby, I'm in.
Hi my name is Jim. I am an easy going, pretty honest guy that can be a little shy at first but warms up quickly. I'm a goof at times but I know when its time to act my age. I'm not afraid to laugh or make fun of myself at all. Honesty in a relationship is very import. I think it show's respect to both of the people in the relationship. I like hanging with friends but then again who doesn't? Meeting new people can be rather interesting. Going to dinner, concert or sporting events is always a good time. But so is sitting in to watch a movie, going bowling or going for a walk or hike. I like most all types of music. I'm a big country music fan. Texas country might be my favorite. I'm more of an action, comedy or drama movie guy. But I do enjoy the occasional chick flick. Hope none of my friends see this they might take my man card away from me for saying that. HaHa!! I love sports, NASCAR, the PBR, Baseball, (I'd rather watch a National League game over an American League game.) College and pro football and Hockey. I also love being outside but it's always more fun to do outside activities with somebody. Before I broke my camera I really enjoyed going for nature walks to take pictures. I really miss that. I'm a blue jeans, a tee shirt kind of guy most of the time. What I'm Looking for. Well someone that wants to try new things and that wants to show me new things. A girl that isn't afraid to be silly and can laugh at herself. It's important for the girl I'm looking for to be positive, confident, ambitious, and spontaneous. But is also friendly, thoughtful, and funny. I think it's very important for a person to be passionate about what they believe in or what they like to do. Someone that can make me laugh and somebody that enjoys me for me. A girl that can pull off a pair or cowboy boots, a flannel or a camo print tee shirt is a bonus. Not looking for super high maintenance more like medium maintenance. HaHa!! A jeans and sneaks/boots kind of girl works for me.

Two family members of people killed in the June 8 plane crash in Fremont have filed a lawsuit in Lucas County Common Pleas Court.
Charles Gerwin, whose wife, Danielle, 31, and daughter, Emily, 4, died in the crash, and James Clearman, whose son Matt, 25, died in the crash, filed the suit this week against a slew of defendants.
Among those named are David Damschroder, executor of 86-year-old pilot Gene Damschroder's estate, Damschroder Sales Co., the International Association of Lions Clubs, the Fremont Noon Lions Club and six Fremont Lions Club members.
In the suit, Gerwin and Clearman seek damages from the wrongful death of their loved ones, citing the preliminary report from the National Transportation Safety Board, which states the plane was not operating on its flight plan and witnesses said it was flying too low. According to the NTSB synopsis, preliminary reports could contain errors that will be corrected in the final report. A final report has not yet been filed.
Damschroder, a former member of the Ohio House, was flying the plane as part of the annual Lions Club Fly-in Breakfast.
The plane was also carrying Bill Ansted, the husband of Barbara Ansted, the Sandusky County Common Pleas Court judge, her daughter, Allison Ansted, 23, of Lindsay; Allison's fiancé, Matt Clearman of Maumee; and the Gerwins of Gibsonburg.
The crash occurred at about 1 p.m. in a grassy field in the southern part of the city. It was the only wide-open space in the vicinity, giving authorities reason to believe that's why Damschroder decided to land there. Damschroder was an experienced pilot who had flown since World War II, when he served as a Navy pilot.
The plane was flying from the west after taking off at the Fremont Progress Airport. The crash left the plane in pieces.

Venus in Fur (Review)
Playhouse production provides revenge — Goddess-style
Rick Pender
0 Comments · Sunday, April 27, 2014
David Ives' 2010 play combines revenge with a lot of prickly dialogue — contemporary, crude, literate and historic — and some flat-out funny moments.
by Rick Pender

Stage Door: Options Abound
There's ample evidence at the Cincinnati Playhouse as to why David Ives' Tony-nominated play Venus in Fur is the most produced script in America this season. I saw the opening performance last evening, and it's an entertaining attention-grabber. Inspired by an erotic Victorian novel, it's the story of a playwright who's adapted it for the stage but despairing of finding the right actress — until Vanda appears. Despite the initial impression she makes, she proves to be almost too good to be true. Greta Wohlrabe is a marvel in this role, flipping between being an ambitious, over-enthused wannabe and a commanding, demanding, sophisticated paramour who knows the character she wants to play and how to get what she wants. It's sexy and funny — and a great evening for grown-ups. Through May 17. Tickets ($30-$75): 513-421-3888. Want to try something new this weekend? A new theater company, Women in Theatre (WIT) is staging Joe Calarco's Walter Cronkite Is Dead at St. John United Church of Christ in Bellevue, Ky. Two women stuck in an airport together end up sharing a table: One, from Washington, D.C., is reserved and educated, yearning for peace and quiet; the other is a chatty Southerner who can't stop talking. Their conversation, according to the show's publicity, is "funny, difficult, deeply revealing and astonishingly frank." Through May 3. Tickets: 859-441-6882. Stacy Sims, my CityBeat colleague, thought that New Edgecliff Theatre's production of Other People's Money was pretty good. (CityBeat review here.) Jerry Sterner's 1989 play remains timely, the story of a rapacious business guy who stands to destroy a small town when he buys a company that is pretty much the sole livelihood of the residents of a small Rhode Island town. Stacy called the show "good entertainment" and added, "it just might provoke you to consider whom you are listening to today." It's onstage at the Aronoff's Fifth Third Bank Theater through Saturday evening. Stacy liked Know Theatre's production of The Twentieth-Century Way enough to give it a Critic's Pick in her CityBeat review here. It's two actors playing two actors in 1914 who are hired to play gay men in Long Beach and entrap "social vagrants" — that is, gay men. It's a multi-leveled script, playing with concepts of what's real and what's "enacted." Heady but fascinating, and it features two excellent actors, Jens Rasmussen and Michael McKeough. You won't be bored if you go to see this one. Through May 3. Tickets ($15 in advance; $20 at the door): 513-300-5669. Two productions that will appeal to audiences who like old-fashioned theater remain onstage. With its final performance on Sunday, Mary Chase's gentle comedy, Harvey, at the Carnegie in Covington, is about Elwood, a guy who's a little off-kilter — who sees a six-foot-tall white rabbit that no one else believes is real (except the audience). Tickets ($17-$24); 859-957-1940. The classic musical Gypsy — full of great show tunes — continues at the Covedale through May 4; it's about Rose, the pushy stage mother who launched her rather unwilling daughter into a burlesque career as Gypsy Rose Lee. (CityBeat review here.) Tickets ($21-$24): 513-241-6550.

Stage Door: Weekend Theater Picks
There are several good theater choices south of the Ohio River this weekend.The theater (and dance) program at Northern Kentucky University presents a truly varied array of programming — this season has included a play by Orson Welles, the legendary musical South Pacific, Shakespeare's As You Like It and more. The academic year's final production Monty Python's Spamalot, opened last evening, and it seems to be a perfect vehicle for a lot of onstage clowning. (In case you haven't been tuned in, the show is subtitled "A musical lovingly ripped off from the motion picture Monty Python and the Holy Grail," and many of the show's most hilarious moments are reproduced wholesale onstage.) But clowning can be serious work, and if you catch NKU's production, pay attention to the choreography (the work of NKU grad Roderick Justice) which is complex, amusing and very well executed by the cast of 25. Director Ken Jones keeps things moving; the actors get into the tomfoolery from start to finish, especially Kat Moser as the diva who's the Lady of the Lake and Bradley Goren as long-suffering Patsy (he's the one who clicks the coconut shells to simulate King Arthur riding on horseback, among other amusing moments). The show is a fine entertainment, if you're a fan of the low but articulate humor of the Python troupe. Through April 27. Tickets ($8-$14): 859-572-5464.Comedy of an entirely different sort is available at another Kentucky venue, the Carnegie in Covington, where Mary Chase's 1945 Pulitzer Prize winner Harvey is available through April 27. This is a piece of gentle humor from the past, about a slightly off-kilter guy who sees a six-foot-plus rabbit — he calls it a "pooka" — named Harvey, much to the dismay of several family members who are embarrassed by his behavior. Their efforts to get him committed to a local asylum go awry to much merriment and a message about being, well, gentle and sweet. This is good, old-fashioned fun. Tickets: 859-957-1940.If you prefer a well-written contemporary drama, this weekend is your last chance to see A Delicate Ship at the Cincinnati Playhouse. Anna Ziegler's new show (this is its world premiere) is a memory play that explores an unexpected chain of events triggered by a love triangle. It's beautifully staged by Michael Evan Haney with a cast of three actors who are just right for each of their roles. I gave this one a Critic's Pick when it opened; it's as good as anything I saw recently at the much-respected Humana Festival of New American Plays at Actors Theatre of Louisville. Tickets ($30-$80): 513-421-3888.

Stage Door: Green Day and More
If you follow music coverage in CityBeat (hey, isn't that really why you pick up the paper?), you're certainly aware of Green Day's 2004 recording American Idiot. But since you're reading my weekend theater previews, you must be interested in other kinds of performance, so here's a tip: For two nights only, Green Day's American Idiot, a stage version of the powerful Punk score, will be onstage at the Aronoff. That's right — Friday and Saturday only, just three performances, much shorter that Broadway in Cincinnati's two-week presentation of touring Broadway musicals. I can vouch for this one, since I saw it a year ago during a similar tour stop in Dayton. It's the story of three disaffected guys who take different downward spirals when confronted with the numbing boredom of everyday life — "alien nation" — as they sing in the opening number. The recording was conceived as a "Punk Rock Opera" and turned into a Tony Award-nominated Broadway show in 2010, with a lot of involvement by Green Day's lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong (who actually appeared onstage in New York at various performances; that's not happening here in Cincinnati). There's a day-of-performance lottery for a limited number of $25 tickets; you need to show up two-and-a-half hours before the performance you're hoping to see (8 p.m. Friday, and 5 and 8 p.m. on Saturday) with a valid photo ID. Complete an entry form and wait 30 minutes to find out if you're a winner. If you prefer to just go ahead and buy your seats ($38-$91), you can call the Aronoff box office: 513-621-2787. In the classic musical Gypsy, Rose has very concrete ideas regarding how to turn her daughters into stars (long before Green Day was punking out, to be sure): Back in the 1920s and '30s she pushed her kids onto vaudeville stages whether they liked it or not. Things never went quite as she imagined, which was really a desire for her own fame and stardom. It's one of the great musicals, and the role of Rose has been compared to King Lear. That might be a bit of a stretch, but she's a tragic character who's fascinating to watch. There's a ton of great music, composed by Jule Styne with lyrics by a very young Stephen Sondheim and lots of humor along the way, especially the hilarious number by three strippers, "You Gotta Get a Gimmick." Cincinnati Landmark opened its production Thursday night, and it will be onstage at the Covedale Center for the Performing Arts through May 4. Tickets ($21-$24): 513-241-6550. Mary Chase's comedy Harvey won the 1945 Pulitzer Prize and had a four-year Broadway run (1,800 performances). The story of Elwood P. Dowd and his invisible friend, a 6-foot tall rabbit named Harvey, is perhaps best known for the 1950 movie featuring Jimmy Stewart in an Oscar-nominated performance. That's all well and good, but it's a show that audiences love to see live and in-person, and you can do just that at Covington's Carnegie for the next three weekends (tonight through April 27). It's directed by Buz Davis, who produced shows at the Carnegie when it was a dilapidated wreck back in the '80s and '90s. Now he's returning to stage Harvey in the beautifully renovated Otto M. Budig Theatre. (Tickets ($17-$24): 859-957-1940.) Davis has assembled a strong cast for this family-friendly comedy, you can catch a few of them in this charming promotional video:Still onstage are several recommended productions: The Mountaintop at Ensemble Theatre (final extended performance is Saturday evening; 513-421-3555); A Delicate Ship at the Cincinnati Playhouse (through April 20; 513-421-3888; CityBeat review here); and The Twentieth-Century Way at Know Theatre (through May 3; CityBeat review here.) And if Monday comes and you want still more: Check out True Theatre's next installment — True Dating (7:30 p.m. at Know Theatre). This round of monologues of real experiences will feature stories of dating that led to true love, and some that went off the tracks along the way. Tickets ($15): 513-300-5669.

Playhouse World Premiere 'Seven Spots on the Sun' Earns National Recognition
Actors Theatre's Humana Festival is indeed a launching pad for exciting new works. That makes its final weekend the perfect moment for the American Theatre Critics Association to recognize a set of outstanding plays produced at regional theaters during 2013. None of the 2013 Humana Festival shows was nominated, but one of the three works to win a significant cash prize ($7,500) was Martín Zimmerman's Seven Spots on the Sun, given its world premiere at the Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park last fall. The play blends magical realism and political issues in an affecting tale examining if forgiveness is truly possible. Set in a Central American nation ravaged by civil war, lust, plague and a consuming need for vengeance, it's about a widowed doctor in a small village and a newly-married soldier charged with subduing dissent. Their journeys towards redemption converge in some painful ways. The top prize ($25,000) went to Lauren Gunderson for her play I and You, about a cranky high school student who needs a liver transplant. A smart, athletic classmate recruits her to help him finish a school project focused on Whitman's Leaves of Grass. As their unlikely relationship evolves, they explore the meaning of life and death without a shred of condescension or pretentiousness. I and You was staged last October at Marin Theatre Company in California, where Jasson Minadakis, who founded Cincinnati Shakespeare Company, is now artistic director and nurtured the development of Gunderson's script. Her play Toil & Trouble was presented locally last summer by Know Theatre.

Playhouse in the Park Announces 2014-15 Season
Season ahead includes homegrown works, award-winning shows and a couple of musicals
The Cincinnati Playhouse announced its 2014-15 season on Monday. I'm especially looking forward to Peter and the Starcatcher, Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike and Circle Mirror Transformation, as well as the premiere production, Safe House. Here's what's coming our way, in chronological order: Jeffrey Hatcher's new whodunit featuring the world's favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Suicide Club. (Marx Theatre, Sept. 6-Oct. 4, 2014)I Loved, I Lost, I Made Spaghetti, adapted from foodie Giulia Melucci's hilarious memoir. (Shelterhouse Theatre, Sept. 27-Oct. 26, 2014)A world premiere by up-and-coming playwright and Cincinnati native Keith Josef Adkins, Safe House, inspired by his Kentucky ancestors. (Marx Theatre, Oct. 18-Nov. 15, 2014)Tenderly: The Rosemary Clooney Musical, which traces America's favorite girl singer from her Cincinnati childhood and Hollywood stardom to triumphant comeback. It's by the local team of composer Janet Yates Vogt and writer Mark Friedman. (Shelterhouse Theatre, Nov. 15-Dec. 28)The season also includes Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, back for its 24th year. (Marx Theatre, Nov. 26-Dec. 28, 2014)A new version of the recent Broadway show, Ring of Fire: The Music of Johnny Cash, directed by and featuring the star of the Broadway production, Jason Edwards. (Marx Theatre, Jan. 17-Feb. 15, 2015)The second U.S. production of an offbeat love story, Chapatti, a tasty new comedy of misadventures involving love and pets. (Shelterhouse Theatre, Feb. 7-March 8, 2015)Peter and the Starcatcher, the magical, family-friendly Peter Pan prequel that hooked five Tony Awards. (Marx Theatre, March 7-April 4, 2015)A compelling, darkly funny new play by Tracey Scott Wilson, Buzzer, getting its world premiere at Chicago's Goodman Theatre this month. (Shelterhouse Theatre, March 21-April 19, 2015)The 2013 Tony Award-winning best play, Christopher Durang's hit comedy Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, full of echoes of Anton Chekhov. (Marx Theatre, April 25-May 23, 2015)The comic off-Broadway hit Circle Mirror Transformation, winner of the 2009 Obie Award for best new American play. (Shelterhouse Theatre, May 9-June 7, 2015) In a recent conversation, Artistic Director Blake Robison described his program priorities and told me the Playhouse takes them seriously. "Variety is one of our hallmarks. We're always going to make sure there are new works and culturally diverse works and that there are family-friendly or multigenerational things. We will find ways to continue to support and entertain the traditional audience while reaching out in various directions to new audiences. It's our responsibility to bring the best theatrical material both old and new to our community." I'd say Robison's third season sticks to his priorities.

(VAN NUYS, CA) -- Vivid Video has signed 22-year-old Chelsea Sinclaire as its next Vivid Girl with an exclusive one year, seven picture deal.
A native of Yorkshire, England, Sinclair is 5'3, 115 pounds and naturally voluptuous. Currently traveling in Europe, she will be back in California in time to shoot her first Vivid Video. Vivid says Chelsea will be added to the featured star lineup in new titles being shot for the popular "Where the Boys Aren't" series directed by Chi-Chi LaRue.
Chelsea got into the adult industry after she and her sister answered a newspaper ad for glamour models. But she says she switched from still to live action because "movies sounded better and I enjoy the sex and socializing."
About Vivid:
Vivid, a leader in adult entertainment since its formation in 1984, is well known for its "Vivid Girl" concept under which top adult film stars are signed to exclusive agreements that are styled on the old Hollywood contract star system. Vivid places heavy emphasis on high quality erotic film entertainment for the couples market and innovative technological advances such as full function DVDs. The company has developed a powerful partnership with companies such as Playboy and a number of leading European and Asian television broadcasters. Vivid also operates the Hot Network and The Hot Zone pay-Per-View channels that are available in more then 25 million households in North America.
