Road Trip, A Delton Ross Mystery on a Free Read Saturday
My main writing efforts now go into the Melanie Hart Cozy Mystery Series. I'm currently writing the third Melanie Hart book. The series features the madcap sleuthing adventures of small town reporter, Melanie Hart, and her beautician sidekick, Ginger Black. The books are a lighthearted romp filled with murder, and mayhem, along with a few laughs. But sometimes, I prefer writing something a bit heavier, a bit more serious. That's when small town sheriff, Delton Ross, steps in.
So far, he lives only in my short stories. Road Trip is the latest such tale. In this story Ross unexpectedly finds himself caught up in what could quickly become a dangerous situation.
Snow drifted down onto the wet highway. Sheriff Delton Ross shifted in his seat. Welcome to early March in Illinois. And he had another three hours of driving to go.
Ross had spent four long days in Chicago at a sheriff's convention. Booze had been drunk, stories swapped, but little of much importance had happened. He sighed. The sheriff didn't enjoy those pursuits as much as he once had. These days, he'd rather make plans for his approaching retirement.
In the distance, the glow from a brightly lit sign of an all night Mini-Mart loomed out of the darkness. Thoughts of hot coffee and a dwindling supply of gas in his tank floated into his mind.
Ross eased off the gas pedal and listened to the splash of his tires as they rolled across the wet highway. After giving his brakes a quick tap, he nosed his SUV into the Mini-Mart's lot. Not much activity there. An old Ford Taurus sat off to the side in the shadows. A rusting pickup stood near the front door. The lot was about as deserted as the highway had been.
The sheriff pulled his vehicle next to a gas pump and climbed out. Snowflakes drifted onto his shoulders and neck. Ross tugged his coat collar up, unscrewed the gas cap, freed the nozzle at the pump, and shoved it into his tank. Leaning back against the vehicle, arms folded over his chest, he watched the dollar amount on the pump spin rapidly higher, then shifted his gaze slightly and studied the store.
The building was just like all the others spawned by this kind of chain. Red brick. Lots of windows. Lots of posters taped to the inside of those windows, all advertising beer, cigarettes, whatever. Not much glass left uncovered to get a good look inside, though.
Behind Ross, the flow of gas stopped. He swung around, pulled the nozzle free, and returned it back to its cradle. After recapping the tank, he headed off for the store.
Ross swung the door wide and stepped inside. He sensed the trouble before he actually saw it. The air nearly crackled with tension. The hairs on the back of his neck snapped to attention. If he'd been one instant faster, he might have retreated, gotten himself out of harm's way. But it was too late now. He'd seen the gunman. The gunman had seen him.
There were two people in all. One male, one female. Both scrawny. Ross figured the woman was probably the cashier. The man with the gun stood behind her with one arm clamped round her shoulders. His free hand held a handgun to her head.
"Don't you do nothing stupid," the gunman barked.
Ross raised his hands into the air. "Don't worry. I have no desire to get myself killed. Whatever you say, son, that's just what I'll do."
The gunman chewed his lip. Nodded. Waved his gun in the direction of a pair of coolers. "Over there. Keep your hands where I can see them."
Ross nodded, moved off slowly toward his destination. He took care to make no sudden movements and kept close watch on the pair out of the corner of his eye.
She was a young thing. Stringy blonde hair. Sheer top over a pair of washed-out, old blue jeans. Makeup a mess. Smeared by her tears.
Her captor looked to be a few years older than her. Dark hair, plaid shirt, sharp chin. He appeared to be nearly as frightened as she was. And both sets of eyes were riveted on him. He reached the coolers, turned, kept his hands in the air.
"What's happening here?" Ross asked, struggling to keep the tone of his voice neutral, non judgmental.
"None of your business," the man snapped. "Just ignore us, and maybe, you won't get hurt."
"Please, Joey," the girl sobbed, "don't do anything foolish."
"And you," he said, his lips next to her ear, "you keep your trap shut. I've heard enough outta you for one night."
She whimpered. "What are you going to do to us?"
Next to the cooler, Ross stirred. He'd wondered the same thing himself.
"I don't know," the man roared. "You got that?" He waved his automatic weapon randomly about the room, aiming at nothing, endangering nearly everything, including the woman and Ross. "Just shut the hell up. Give me a chance to think, would ya?"
Through a small patch of glass, where nobody had managed to slapped up a poster, Ross watched another car roll into the lot. He hoped the driver only needed gas. And he prayed the guy would pay for his purchase out at the pump. The last thing Ross wanted was another person or two added into the mix inside the store. More numbers would make the gunman feel increasingly threatened. That could heighten the chances for a bad outcome in here.
Right about then, the gunman spotted the threat, too. And both he and Ross watched as two men, joking and laughing strolled into the store, saw the gunman, and froze. One was short, the other tall. Both were built like defensive linemen. Ross figured they'd probably come in to grab a quick case of beer.
"Hey, you two," Joey snapped.
The men nodded, raised their hands in the air. "We don't mean any harm, here," the taller of the two said. "Whatever you're up to, it's none of our business."
"Yeah. Just… you just take the money and run… if that's what you're after," the other one stammered. "It's… it's no skin off our nose."
A vein pounded at the gunman's throat. His face flushed a deep red. His eyes bulged. "Is that what you think of me?" He roared. "That I'm some kinda thief?" His gaze flashed back to his captive. "You see the mess your cheatin' has landed me in? They think I'm a crook. A thief."
The woman panted for air. Fresh tears streamed down her cheeks. "Honest, Joey. I've been nothing but faithful." Her voice trembled. "You got it all wrong. You gotta believe me. Please, sugar, put the gun down. Think of our daughter. What happens to her if you shoot me?"
"I told you to shut it." He turned his gaze back to the strangers. "Over there,"he told them. "Line up next to the old fart. Go."
Hands still raised, the two linemen shuffled over and joined Ross next to the coolers, their gaze never leaving the sight of the deranged man with the gun.
Ross shifted uneasily. Three men against one now. Factor in the woman and it came to four against one. The gunman had to be feeling the pressure. "What do you want, son?" Ross asked, still keeping his voice neutral. "What can we do to help you out here?"
"What do I want?" the gunman screamed back. "I don't have a clue. I thought I did. I wanted my life back. I wanted her dead. Now, I'm not so sure."
"Then, let her go," Ross said.
"Why should I?"
"Because she's your child's mother. You can't want your daughter to become a ward of the state."
The guy raised his chin. "The state's got no say in this."
Ross shook his head. "It might, if the child's mother is shot dead and her daddy's sent to prison for murder. Is that what you want?"
The two guys who had stopped in for beer licked their lips. They exchanged nervous glances, obviously wondering, if bullets started flying, whether they'd become what's called collateral damage?
Joey's right shoulder twitched."Yeah, well, none of us would be in this mess 'cept for this little tramp." He shook his head and scowled at his wife. "Her and Terry Beemer, that is."
"Joey, you got it all wrong," she said. "There was never nothing between Terry and me. Honest."
"I ain't no fool, Becky. It's your fault. Every bit of it." He stared at the automatic gripped tightly in his right hand.
"Whatever she's done," Ross said, "she's paid for it tonight. Look at her. She's terrified. She gets it. She knows how you feel."
The young woman offered her husband a wan smile. "Honest, Joey…."
"Shut up. Shut up. You think you can walk all over me and not get some kind of crap back?"
She opened her mouth. Came up with nothing. Closed it again.
"Well, do you?" he demanded.
Her lip trembled. "No, Joey. Of course not."
The gunman scowled. "You got that right."
"Look at me," Ross said. He waited for the man's gaze to shift to him. "You need to know. This can be over. You can walk out of here."
The gunman scoffed. "You don't think the minute I'm gone you and your buddies won't be calling the police?" He spit out a sharp bark of laughter. "Sure. Right."
Ross took a small step toward the gunman. "I can't say you're not right, son. But I'm pretty darn sure walking out of here with a cop on each elbow beats getting chased down and shot dead in some cornfield. What I'm saying is let's call the cops now."
"What good would that do me?"
"Look, so far, nobody's been hurt. That's a good thing. You haven't done anything you can't work out with a judge. You'll probably do jail time. But you'll live to see your daughter's next birthday. Your best chance for tonight is to put that gun down and let me help you talk to the cops."
The woman glanced at Ross, a glimmer of hope in her eyes. "He's right, Joey."
"Shut up, woman," Joey yelled. "I lose you, I lose half my grief. You got that?"
"But I never…."
"Just… shut… up." The man snapped the gun back to her temple.
"Joe, take a step back," Ross said. "Don't blow it now. She's not worth it."
"You know what," Joey said, waving the gun in random directions again. "I think maybe I already figured that out. His gaze returned to the woman. "Just how special do you think you are? I could get myself a gal twice as good looking as you. One who wouldn't cat around on me behind my back, either."
Becky sniffled. Wiped her eyes with her hands. "That's right, Joe. Don't you think I don't know it? I sit up nights worrying you just might do that."
"You do?"
"I do," she replied.
"Put the gun down," Ross said. "Set it right there on the counter."
Joey's shoulders slumped. The adrenalin he'd been pumped up on visibly fled from his slender frame. He slid the gun onto the counter and nodded. A whipped dog. A defeated man.
Ross crossed the room slowly, his gaze locked on the man. The sheriff reached out, snatched up the weapon. Heaved a sigh of relief. Silently cursing that he was without a set of handcuffs, his gaze flicked across the store shelves looking for something to secure his prisoner with. Saw some clothesline. Couldn't believe his good luck.
"You there," he said to the shorter of the two linemen. "Toss that rope over here."
By the time Ross had secured Joey's hands, Becky had crossed the room and cuddled into the taller lineman's arms. "I was beginning to think you'd never get here," she whispered, gazing up at the handsome and obviously well heeled man.
"Babe," he answered, relief echoing in his deep voice. "I said I'd come by and see you tonight. You never doubted me, right?" He nuzzled the top of her head with his chin.

A Visit with Novelist and Writer, P.S. Winn
We're happy to have you join us today. Please, tell us a bit about your latest book.
The newest book is called "Lies in Shadows". It is a Paranormal, psychological thriller. It also has a touch of romance. Lucretia has a mental block and at 32, can't remember a pre-eleven life. Her mother dies and Lucretia's block begins breaking down and the lies she was told about her lack of memory lie in the shadows of her mind begin to surface. Deputy Sheriff Max helps her to find the truth, along the way they discover a closer relationship than either expected.
With nine novels and a collection of children's stories, you are obviously a prolific writer. Where do you find inspiration for your works?
My ideas come from mostly life and my vivid imagination. I also can't sleep at night because the story unfolds in my mind and until I put it on paper it won't go away. My characters have lives of their own and have the biggest say in where my story goes.
Do you have any tips to share for writers who'd like to follow in your path and expand into children's books?
Just have fun. The children's books are so fun to write. Kids have great imaginations and you can take the books to any level. I am working now on a sequel to "Stretched Stories" and it is so much fun to write the humorous tales and try to write from an child's perspective. I think it keeps me young and that is a great plus.
Is there one central message you'd like your readers to take home with them when they finish reading one of your books?
I want the readers to get lost in the books. When they finish I hope they say wow, that was a great journey. I have a book of short stories and poems called "Heartfelts" which is a bit different than my others. ( I also include my own drawings) "Heartfelts" takes a hard look at some sad subj takes a hard ects ( death of a child, alcoholism, breast cancer) but also have uplifting messages. A reader told me they cried through the whole book and I was so touched.
You say you'd be writing books no matter whether people read your stories or not. What keeps you going during the periodic slumps we all experience?
I can't stop writing because it makes me happy. I write all my stories long hand and once my pen hits the paper the words flow. I do get depressed when sales are down, but the writing is not about money it is about sharing the love of what I do and hopefully even one person will come back and say thanks, your book made my day. One reader told me she had a daughter who was pregnant and having problems that ended her in the hospital. On the monitor the baby's heartbeat was irregular. The reader pulled out her e-reader and began reading out loud one of my children';s books and the baby's heartbeat returned to normal and things turned out well. I have never been so touched. What a reason to never give up this journey.
Many of us are influenced by our surroundings. I know I am. I've spent most of my life in a rural setting, and it's those people whose stories I like best to write. How has your surroundings influenced your writing?
Almost all my stories take place in small towns because that is where I have always lived. I mention bigger cities in my books but I love the atmosphere of a small town. When I am traveling and driving through a small town my mind goes into overdrive because I imagine all kinds of things going on in the places I drive by.
If you had one tip you'd like to share with fellow authors, what would it be?
Believe in yourself and don't give up. If you enjoy writing for the actual process of writing itself, then that is what is important. If I wasn't a writer I would be doing something else that makes me happy. I love to paint, draw and do hobbies so I will always do that too because when all is said and done you have to do what makes your life more enjoyable, even if it is a hobby and not your job.
Any questions I've not asked that you'd love your readers to know about you or your work?
I just want readers to know how much I thank them. A book isn't complete until someone reads it. It has been a wonderful experience for me, this journey of being an author. Everyone has given me positive feedback both in reviews and stories shared. I am still waiting for the day when I have to deal with a bad review or a reader who gives me bad feedback. I hope it never happens and right now I am just so happy to write and be involved in this whole crazy world of being a writer.

Why Originality Doesn't Matter

The good news is, that doesn't matter. It's not about being original.
I hear this kind of question all the time: has it been done? Of course it has. Listen and listen well. You are not a special snowflake. You cannot originate anything, in the strictest sense of the word. Your ideas do not spring from the void, no matter how little media you consume. You are human and your brain is infected with stories. Why do you think the TV Tropes wiki is such a lumbering monster? You cannot avoid any and every element of trope and still tell a coherent story, because you are human and humans have been doing this thing for thousands of years. Before we could even write, we were telling stories.
It's not about originality. It's about conversation, by which I mean responding with your own art to the…

Appropriate for Children?
Apparently Penguin books is known for putting edgy covers on some of the books in their Modern Classic editions, but this time a lot of people are questioning this one. I'm referring to the cover on Penguin's new edition of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Penguin officials seem to be standing by their decision. But the cover has come under some criticism in forums where its been posted. Some people have suggested it reminded them of Jon Benet Ramsey. Others have said they thought the cover more appropriate for an edition of Lolita. Me? I'm mostly stunned.
A Long Way Home Now Available in Kindle Select
I've long been fond of short stories. In truth, I enjoy writing them. So I'm pleased to announce the first book in my suspense series is now available in Kindle Select. I expect the second book in the series to go live sometime tomorrow. When it does, I'll post its link here.
The series features Angela Clark, a recent widow, who is struggling to regain control over her life. A Chicago native, Angela now lives in a small town, where a killer brutally murdered her husband, Jeffery Clark, and now plans to kill Angela, too.
This is a short suspense story, not long enough even to be listed as a novella or novelette. It's intended as a quick read during a dull lunch, or, perhaps, as a brief shot of fiction before bed. But be careful of nightmares. In this piece a murdered husband's past and a crazed killer create problems for the young widow.
This work is available for free to readers enrolled in Kindle Unlimited.

New Cozy Mystery Sleuth on the Horizon
Hi, I'm Melanie Hart, the newly-minted crime solver and ace reporter being created by mystery writer Anna Drake. My first episode isn't out yet. My creator, the slow poke, is still writing it. Sometimes I have to give her a kick in her behind to get into gear. Ugh. Anyway, please watch for my release. I'll do what I can to keep my author-child tooling along and writing good stuff. But you know how it goes. Some days are better than others. In the meantime, let me treat you to a view of my first book's cover.

The Zarcone Law Firm opened its doors in 2010. However, I have been an attorney in San Diego since 1997 and have worked for some of the city's most prestigious firms. Our firm's focus is on service to the client and the client's needs.
Our firm is focused on providing our clients quality representation and service. We understand that a matter such as bankruptcy or a collection case is very trying. Our clients always deal with an attorney, never sales people or intake clerks like at bankruptcy mills that are only interested in making a sale and keeping their volume of cases up. The Zarcone Law Firm represents the clients and their interests first.
I have dealt with numerous bankruptcy cases, many that involved complex issues beyond the normal consumer case. One Chapter 11 case involved the sale of nearly 40 restaurants throughout California. Another case dealt with highly technical intellectual property issues and I took the case all the way through appeal. Another bankruptcy involved a major manufacturing concern, located in San Diego, with plants throughout the United States. I had to travel to as far away as Iowa City in the middle of winter to administer the estates assets on behalf of the trustee.
4370 La Jolla Village Drive
Suite 655
San Diego CA 92122
Yes. One hour.
Our firm will do most Chapter 7 personal and business bankruptcies for a set price. A personal bankruptcy will be $1,000 to $1,800 depending on the complexity and other factors.
Monday through Friday
8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
I enjoy the financial aspect of the bankruptcy practice. Furthermore, I enjoy the ability to help people that have fallen on hard times get back on sound financial footing and move forward.
Clients should make every effort to educate themselves on legal issues. First, the client has a direct interest in the outcome of their matter, so they should be aware of the issues and complexities of a legal case. Second, a better educated client is likely to be of more assistance to an attorney. For instance, one client may be in possession of a document that he or she feels has no bearing on their case. A better educated client may see or understand issues related to that same document, present it to their attorney and explain why that document is relevant to their case.
It is an obligation to review documents prepared by clients. At the outset, the client often has a better understanding of the facts and circumstances involved and a review of that knowledge may be imperative to understanding the case accurately.
I'm willing to steer clients in the right direction regarding representation. However, an attorney has to be cautious since they have no control over a person who represents themselves. An attorney cannot be sure the person would follow the advice correctly, prepare the correct documents, etc. and then have the blame fall back on the attorney.
Previously, I worked for Oliva & Associates, as well as Higgs, Fletcher & Mack, one of San Diego's most venerable firms having opened its doors in 1939.
My mom passed away when I was 20 years old after battling cancer for 5 years. That event made me realize that life is short and even in the business world; you have to provide your clients the best service possible. You can't treat your clients like a number because that is not what they are paying for. They are paying for your knowledge, your expertise, and your ability to find a way out of a bad situation.
I care about my clients and do not treat a client like just "another case." There are no sales people here, each client deals directly with me. I deal with your case on an expedited basis because people want their financial situation to be dealt with as quickly as possible.Personal interests:
Fitness, sports, soccer, tennis, football, and working out at the gym.

Moore eager to go to work again after knee surgery

TEMPE, Ariz. -- A trip to Duke University a year ago to help Peyton Manning work his way back from neck surgery turned out to be just as beneficial for his longtime offensive coordinator Tom Moore.
Knee problems had forced the highly respected coach into retirement, although he doesn't like the word. And as Moore tells it, when Duke coach David Cutcliffe saw all the pain the old coach was dealing with, he said, "We've got to do something about that."

We build a model of a limit order book and examine the consequences of adding a dark pool. Starting with an illiquid book, we show that book and consolidated fill rates and volume increase, but the spread widens, depth declines and welfare deteriorates. When book liquidity increases, more orders migrate to the dark pool and large trader's welfare improves; but while the spread increase is dampened, the depth-reduction is amplified and small traders are still worse off. All effects are stronger for a continuous than for a periodic dark pool and when the tick size is large.

We're proud to have won the Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence for four years running.
You can call in to read some of our thank you cards or read some of our most recent wedding reviews here from Tripadvisor, by genuine brides and their happy guests!
|Our daughter was married here on Sat 20th Dec. From start to finish the staff were wonderful and everything was spot on. Even when the guitarist let us down at the last minute they sorted the music out & no one was any the wiser. The food was wonderful & accommodation lovely. Really can't praise everyone enough, they work so hard and deserve all the wonderful comments on trip advisor. Well done to all of you.
|My son has just got married at Holdsworth House Hotel, in Halifax and it was an absolute amazing experience! We were a little apprehensive before, thinking that the venue was a little 'old fashioned' initially. Our fears were not realised at all. The ceremony and reception were fantastic, from the intimate room where my son and his future wife were married to the luxurious reception room, the venue was just perfect! I would like to think Tracey for her expert organisational skills; she made the event run extremely smoothly. Thank you Tracey! The food was outstanding, from the ham hock and Turkey pate to the hot chocolate fondue and ice cream, everything was just right! I would highly recommend this venue for a wedding. Well done Holdsworth House Hotel staff! The photographs in the garden were really lovely, even with the cold climate and the slight rain shower. This was made much better with the warming 'real fires' in the rooms and courtyard! A really big thank you! Joy and Steve, the groom's parents!
|Me and my husband got married here on 4-12-14 and what can I say from start to finish the wedding staff were out of this world and so helpful. We were getting married there April 2015 but had to bring the wedding forward due to a family matter so we only had 4 weeks to plan everything.
The wedding team were fantastic and so helpful
The food is out of this world the venue is stunning so happy we found this hidden gem.
Big big thank you to all staff. We will be back
|We visited in July 2014 for a wedding. The weather was beautiful which highlighted the gorgeous grounds and old building. The double room that we stayed in was nice although slightly on the small side. The meal and breakfast that we had were again lovely and the service throughout our stay was faultless.
|Just returned from a fantastic day and night at this lovely hotel. My partner organised a stunning day / night full of surprises in order to propose to me (I said yes !!). We enjoyed an afternoon cream tea and a 7 course dinner in a private dining room in the evening rounded off with rose petals on the lawn spelling out 'Marry Me?'. The hotel is beautiful, as are the grounds and every detail was taken care of with the utmost professionalism and care. Special thanks must go to Antony Curran for all his hard work and support to make our time there so special.
|My wife and I got married at Holdsworth just over a week ago and we were very pleased with how it all went. All of our guest complimented on how nice the food was. We had someone with us throughout the whole day making us aware of what to expect and to help guide us through the day with very few hiccups. In terms of cost, the wedding package was very competitive with other venues across the North of the country and for what you get included in the packages at Holdsworth, we would certainly say it is value for money. The hotel and the grounds it sits in are absolutely gorgeous and really made out wedding photos extra special. The day ran very smoothly, and we would certainly recommend Holdsworth House to anyone looking for an ideal wedding venue.

Need a replacement P-2000 Hard Drive?
Started Jul 31, 2006 | Discussions thread

"Most have put 120 gig HD in.. "
I was wondering if anyone has upgraded their P-2000 with the new 160 GB drives and if so, did the P-2000 see the whole drive? I am considering the Seagate 160 GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache ATA-6.
I am planning a long vacation and wanted to have plenty of room to store my pics.

James Harden's return to Oklahoma City has taken an emotional and tragic detour for the Houston Rockets. The spotlight will eventually turn to the star guard. Only hours after attending the funeral of coach Kevin McHale's daughter on Wednesday, Harden will have to deal with a different set of emotions when he faces the Thunder for the first time since being traded away last month. Harden spent his first three seasons with Oklahoma City (11-4), winning the league's Sixth Man of the Year award in 2011-12 and helping the team to the NBA finals. But after he and the Thunder were unable to agree on a long-term extension, Harden was dealt to Houston (7-7) on Oct. 27 in exchange for Kevin Martin, rookie Jeremy Lamb, two first-round picks and a second-rounder. Before the meeting with his former team, however, Harden and the Rockets will be in Minneapolis for the funeral of Sasha McHale - the 23-year-old daughter of head coach Kevin McHale. Sasha McHale died on Saturday from complicati...

Comments Thread For: Soto Beats Monterrosa (Again), Next Faces Antillon (Again)
By Jake Donovan - Lightweight titlist Humberto Soto preserved one rematch with a win in another, turning back the challenge of Fidel Monterrosa in their return go Saturday evening in Tepic, Nayarit, Mexico.
Scores were 98-92, 100-90 and 100-88 in favor of Soto in their non-title fight, which aired live on Fox Sports Espanol.
There was growing concern going in that Soto could suffer a cut or injury and thus be forced to postpone his spring showdown with Urbano Antillon in a rematch of their 12-round war last December.
Soto put those fears to rest with an intelligent performance, though without sacrificing entertainment value, no easy feat considering their bout last September wasnt particularly memorable.

mysterious, beautiful, not something our kids get very much these days. there's fantastical spectacle because of computers and film. i think in live performance, in a way being paired down, you can be more successful and ask everybody to buy into the world you are in. if it is a simple world they will buy in, as long as the world is consistent that you have on stage. in some ways i also want that message for kids. it doesn't have to be spectacle but how you feel and having fun and taking things seriously, not about being blown away.
>> what is real? it is a thing that happens to you when a child loves you for a long, long time. >> i think it is a success. for the most part if you are three to seven, you sit in the seats and most of the time the kids are engaged. they laugh and ask questions. i think that is success. the fact we tour it and do it here, it is lasting. i really want to say the reason it is lasting is because of the story marjorie williams wrote is a gem of a story. if it was just an okay story, it wouldn't have lasted this long. i have had people say that is the first show i ever saw, that is why i am a choreographer. i have had people that have come back when they are 20
and 23 years old. little kids and people in their 50s and 60s are telling me how much they love it. they come back more than once, they come back year after year. >> when the new california academy of sciences opened in 2008, it quickly became one of the top tourist magnets in the city. part of the cal academies' astronomical success is the weekly nightlife party. >> i am joined by helen, who is here to school me on all the nocturnal activities that are getting ready to take place here. tell us a little about what we can expect to see at nightlife. >> we open up the doors every thursday night at the california academy of sciences. there are certain things you can see every week you can go to the
museum, visit the planetarium, and we bring in bars and a deejay or band. it is a different feel from during the day, something different every week. tonight , we have beer and music. -- tonight we have great beer and music. it is beer week. we have a dozen local brewers in african hall. we have a deejays to set up throughout the museum and a live performance at 9:00 p.m. tonight. >> what has been your favorite part as a participant or as an observer? >> my favorite part is to walk around the aquarium in to see people with a drink in their hands, getting to know maybe somebody new, may be looking for a day, or chatting with friends. there jellyfish. i mean, they are beautiful. >> the culmination of the animals. >> it is very impressive.
we do not have this at home. >> tell us a little about some of the spider's we see here on display. >> at the california academy of sciences, there is a very large collection of preserved and live specimens, which are the evidence about evolution. we have the assassin spiders, which are spiders that exclusively kill and eat other spiders. they are under the microscope here. research done and the california academy's i rhinology lab suggests that the assassin spiders have been doing this for over 150 million years. this glassed in room is a real scientific laboratory, and the people in that room are preparing specimens of vertebrate, that is mammals and birds. the way they do this is to
remove the skin, sew it together in a relatively lifelike pose, and ensure that it does not decompose. >> i am a really big class actress fan, so i am here to see them, and beer week. >> i wanted to learn something and have fun. >> i always enjoy it. i am not all is well -- always working as i am tonight. sometimes i come to enjoy the music and to dance. ♪ >> culturewire covers the arts in san francisco, and one of my favorite culture artists is here tonight. jason, thank you for being on culturewire. tell us about some of your posters that we have here today. >> most of the posters here are four specific shows or tours. i am hired by the bands or the
venue. >> what is the inspiration behind these posters? >> no, disease of the related to the bay and, of course. music -- it is related to the band, of course the musical content or isn't related to the bed. album covers can come from anywhere. ♪ ♪ >> class actress was great. we have been having so much fun. i did not realize how beautiful the cal academy looks than that.
what other events take place here? >> we do corporate events that night on a regular basis. but nightlife is your best bet to come in as a regular person pharmacy the academy at night, and visit with friends. calacademy.org/nightlife. we have details for the next few weeks. you can get tickets online in advance or at the door. >> thank you so much. thank you for watching culturewire on sf gov tv. >> i tried to think about this room as the dream room, where we dream and bring some of those dreams to life. i feel very blessed that i have been able to spend the last 31 years of my life doing it my way, thinking about things better interesting to me, and then pursuing them.
there are a lot of different artists that come here to work, mostly doing aerial work. kindred spirits, so to speak. there is a circus company that i have been fortunate enough to work with the last couple of years. i use elements of dance and choreography and combine that with theater techniques. a lot of the work is content- based, has a strong narrative. the dancers have more of a theatrical feel. i think we are best known for our specific work. in the last 15 years, spending a lot of time focusing on issues that affect us and are related to the african-american experience, here in the united states.
i had heard of marcus shelby and had been in join his work but never had the opportunity to meet him. we were brought together by the equal justice society specifically for this project. we were charged with beginning work. marquez and i spent a lot of time addressing our own position on the death penalty, our experiences with people who had been incarcerated, family members, friends of friends. pulling our information. beyond that, we did our own research. to create a picture that resonated with humanity. it is the shape of a house. in this context, it is also small and acts like a cell. i thought that was an
interesting play on how these people make these adjustments, half to create home. what is home for these people? the home is their cell. people talk a lot about noise -- very noisy in prisons. that is interesting to me. looking at the communication level, the rise of frustration of being caged, wondering, where does redemption fit into the equation here? [singing] i think both of us really
believe the death penalty is wrong, and is flawed for many reasons. the list is as long as my arm -- about several others. we feel this is important for both of us, personally, to participate in the debate of this issue in a way that we can help people frame it for a conversation. >> feel like it really is a community. they are not the same thing, but it really does feel like there's
that kind of a five. everybody is there to enjoy a literary reading. >> the best lit in san francisco. friendly, free, and you might get fed. ♪ [applause] >> this san francisco ryther created the radar reading series in 2003. she was inspired when she first moved to this city in the early 1990's and discover the wild west atmosphere of open mi it's ic in the mission. >> although there were these open mics every night of the week, they were super macho. people writing poems about being jerks. beatty their chest onstage. >> she was energized by the scene and proved up with other
girls who wanted their voices to be heard. touring the country and sharing gen-x 7 as a. her mainstream reputation grew with her novel. theses san francisco public library took notice and asked her if she would begin carrying a monthly reading series based on her community. >> a lot of the raiders that i work with our like underground writers. they're just coming at publishing and at being a writer from this underground way. coming in to the library is awesome. very good for the library to show this writing community that they are welcome. at first, people were like, you want me to read at the library, really? things like that.
>> as a documentary, there are interviews -- [inaudible] >> radar readings are focused on clear culture. strayed all others might write about gay authors. gay authors might write about universal experiences. the host creates a welcoming environment for everybody. there is no cultural barrier to entry. >> the demographic of people who come will match the demographic of the reader. it is very simple. if we want more people of color, you book more people of color. you want more women, your book more women. kind of like that. it gets mixed up a little bit. in general, we kind of have a core group of people who come every month. their ages and very.
we definitely have some folks who are straight. >> the loyal audience has allowed michelle to take more chances with the monthly lineup. established authors bring in an older audience. younker authors bring in their friends from the community who might be bringing in an older author. >> raider has provided a stage for more than 400 writers. it ranges from fiction to academics stories to academic stories this service the underground of queer fell, history, or culture. >> and there are so many different literary circles in san francisco. i have been programming this reading series for nine years. and i still have a huge list on my computer of people i need to
carry into this. >> the supportive audience has allowed michele to try new experiment this year, the radar book club. a deep explorationer of a single work. after the talk, she bounces on stage to jump-start the q&a. less charlie rose and more carson daly. >> san francisco is consistently ranked as one of the most literate cities in the united states. multiple reading events are happening every night of the year, competing against a big names like city arts and lectures. radar was voted the winner of these san francisco contest. after two decades of working for free, michelle is able to make radar her full-time job. >> i am a right to myself, but i
feel like my work in this world is eagerly to bring writers together and to produce literary events. if i was only doing my own work, i would not be happy. it is, like throwing a party or a dinner party. i can match that person with that person. it is really fun for me. it is nerve wracking during the actual readings. i hope everyone is good. i hope the audience likes them. i hope everybody shows up. but everything works out. at the end of the reading, everyone is happy. ♪ >> welcome to culture wire. we will look at the latest and greatest public art project. recently, the airport unveiled
the new state of the art terminal. let's take a look. the new terminal service and american airlines and virgin america was designed by a world- renowned architecture's firm. originally built in 1954, the building underwent massive renovation to become the first registered terminal and one of the must modern and sustainable terminals and the united states. the public art program continues its 30-year legacy of integrating art into the airport environment with the addition of five new commissions that are as bold and dynamic as the new building. >> this project was completed in
record time, and we were able to integrate the artist's early enough in the process that they could work with the architect said that the work that is completed is the work that really helps complement and instill the space as opposed to being tucked away in a corner. >> be experience begins with the glass facades that was designed with over 120 laminated glass panels. it captures the experience of being under or over clouds when flying in a plane. depending on the distance or point of view, it can appear clear for more abstract and atmospheric. the subtle colors change gradually depending on the light and the time of day. >> i wanted to create an art work that looks over time as well as working on in the first
glance. the first time you come here, you may not see a. but you may be able to see one side over the other. it features a couple of suspended sculptures. each was created out of a series of flat plains run parallel to each other and constructed of steel tubing. >> it is made up of these strata. as the light starts to shift, there is a real sense that there is a dynamism. >> it gives the illusion that this cultures might be fragments of a larger, mysterious mass. >> the environmental artwork livens it with color, light, and the movement. three large woven soldiers are
suspended. these are activated by custom air flow program. >> i channeled air flow into each of these forms that makes it move ever so slightly. and it is beating like a heart. if-0 when as of the forces of nature moving around us every second. >> shadow patterns reflect the shapes of the hanging sculptures. the new terminal also features a children's play areas. both of the market the exploratory n.y. -- exploratorium. the offer travelers of all ages a playful oasis.
using high quality plywood, they created henches shaped like a bird wings that double as musical instruments. serving as a backdrop is a mural featuring images of local birds and san francisco's famous skyline. >> in the line between that is so natural, you can see birds and be in complete wilderness. i really like that about this. you could maybe get a little snapshot of what they are expecting. >> it is an interactive, keck sculpture that is interacted with by the visitor. >> they are a lot about and they fall down the belt. it moves the belt up, and if you
turn that faster, the butterflies fall in the move of words. >> the art reflect the commission's commitment to acquiring the best work from the bay area and beyond. in addition to the five new commissions, 20 artworks that were already in the airport collection were reinstalled. some of which were historically cited in the terminal. it includes major sculptures by the international artists. as a collection, these art works tell the story of the vibrant arts scene in the early 1960's through the mid-1980s's. the illustrate san francisco's cultural center and a place of innovation that is recognized and the love throughout the world. one of the highlights is a series of three left tapestries. they are on view after being in
storage for 20 years. these tapestries representing various gardens. from his years of living in san francisco. hydrangeas, chrysanthemums, and whilst dahlias in rich, deep shades as they make their way to the baggage area. they can access behind-the- scenes information and interviews with the artist through an audio to work. it features archival audio as well as interviews with living artists. he can be accessed on site by dialing the telephone numbers located near the artwork or by visiting the commission's web site. the public art speaks volumes of
san francisco as a world-class city with world-class art and culture. for more information, visit >> a lot a ton with the community and we say to ourselves, there is this one and this one. we all compartmentalize them, we have our own agenda. our agenda is to create great work. if you are interested in that, you are part of our community. >> hello and welcome to brava theater. >> we are trying to figure out a way to make a space where theater and presentation of live work is something that you think of the same way that you think of going to the movies. of course, it has been complex in terms of economics, as it is
for everyone now. artistically, we have done over 35 projects in four seasons, from producing dance, theater, presenting music, having a full- scale education program, and having more than 50,000 visitors in the building almost every year. a lot of our emerging artists to generate their first projects here, which is great. then we continue to try to support figuring out where those works can go. we have been blessed to have that work produced in new york, going on to the edinburgh festival, the warsaw theater festival. to me, those are great things when you can watch artists who think there is nowhere else that might be interested in you being a woman of color and telling your story and then getting excited about it. that is our biggest accomplishment. having artists have become better artists.
what is. sheri coming back to brava, here you have this establish, amazing writer who has won a clue -- slew of awards. now she gets to director and work. even though she is this amazing, established writer, the truth is, she is being nurtured as a director and is being given some space to direct. >> the play is described as ceremony and -- where ceremony and theater me. in the indigenous tradition, when you turn 52, it is like the completion of an important era. the importance of the ceremony is to say, you are 52. whenever you have been caring for the first 52 years, it is time to let it go. really, here, they have given me carte blanche to do this.
i think it is nice for me, in the sense of coming back 25 years later and seeing personally my own evolution as an artist and thinker. the whole effort to put the chicano or indigenous woman's experience on center stage is, in itself, for euro-american theaters, a radical position. because of the state of theater, it is a hard roll to hold up in institution. it is a hard road. i am looking at where we are 25 years later in the bay area, looking at how hard it is for us to strive to keep our theater is going, etc. i like to think that i'm not struggling quite as hard, personally, but what i mean by that, the intention, the commitment. particularly, to produce works
that would not be produced in other places, and also to really nurture women of color artists. i think that is something that has not shifted for me in those 25 years, and it is good to see that brava remains committed to that kind of work. ♪ >> when people talk about the reflection of the community, we can only go from what we have on our staff. we have a south asian managing director, south african artistic director, latino community out rich person. aside from the staff, the other people, artists that we work with being a reflection of us, yes, the community is changing, but brava has always tried to be ahead of that trend. when i

"Let's move to Ostia - Ostia ANTICA !!" Top 5 Page for this destination Ostia Antica by icunme
Ostia Antica Travel Guide: 59 reviews and 254 photos
Although not nearly as expansive as Pompeii, Ostia Antica is a destination in its own right. Once the Port of Rome, the ruins have been maintained and organized to give you the most descriptive venture back in time. We saw one "casa" we loved and so intact, we were ready to move in! You will easily distinguish the "bakery" from the "fast food" concession - the townhouse residences from the public baths. You will note that one of the public toilette facilities from Ostia Antica is actually pictured and described in the Pompeii literature (will post the photo when I find it).
View the travelogues and you will not be disappointed.
Also pages on OSTIA as it is a separate destination and you will see Rome's beach life - verrry interesting!
We were here one time when there was a very lovely festival in the town Piazza - some of the warmest, friendliest people I have encountered in Italy. Walk out of the piazza a little way and across the street to the entrance of Ostia Antica ruins.
The beach of Rome on the Tyrrhenian Sea - take the train or a boat ride gets you there. After browsing the ruins - take a look at beach life in OSTIA. Romans have squared off here at the beaches - private beaches where you pay for everything - free public beaches - there are dedicated family beaches - then you have the gay beach - the nudie beach - the beach where teenagers congregate - the beach for people whose doggies like to swim - and a beach where you find a little of all the above!
The waters are not noted for their cleanliness - maybe part of the reason I like the pristine lakes so much!
- Pros:On a scale of 1 to 10 - an 11......
- Cons:Beach traffic in summer from Roma
- In a nutshell:Italy just doesn't get better than this - sea beside ruins!

I am all a twitter. I love old things. It sets my mind on fire. Great tips sbout things to look for. Thanks, Randy
Ostia Antica looks like quite an interesting place! I like old ruins too, especially by the sea. Great tip on the boat Transportation - that would be my choice too!
townhouse w/ windows..indeed! Interesting combo .. the beach and the ruins.
Hello Carol - thanks for visiting Swaziland - I hope to visit there again soon, - you live in a beautiful country.
This is how I remember Ostia - a very nice historic location and not crowded with tourists. A great daytrip from Rome !

Originally written on Mets Merized Online | Last updated 5/7/13
Trenton 5, Binghamton 0 The Binghamton Mets were held to two hits and Cory Mazzoni was tagged for five runs in a 5-0 loss to the Trenton Thunder Monday night at Arm & Hammer Park. The B-Mets suffered their third shutout loss of the year and matched a season-low in hits. Mazzoni made his first start in more than a month after missing 24 games due to right elbow neuritis. Trenton wasted little time to welcome him back. In the first inning they sent eight men to the plate, collected three hits and took advantage of an error to hang a crooked number. After the Thunder started the frame with two hits, Tyler Austin supplied a sac fly. With a runner on third, J.R. Murphy sent a chopper back to the mound. Mazzoni fielded cleanly and threw to third, but Josh Rodriguez muffed the throw, allowing Jose Pirela to dive back safely. The misplay led to three unearned runs on Mazzoni's tab when Slade Heathcott chipped in with an RBI groundout and Reegie Corona laced a two-run single to centerfie...

medical screening protocols. The low-cost, potentially high-benefit strategy of screening for depression, with appropriate referrals and follow through, may ameliorate some psychologic burdens in the RECA population.4,5
This chapter has reviewed in depth the conceptual and statistical underpinnings of screening for medical purposes. We have discussed the limitations and risks of screening for diseases for which early detection offers little benefit. We have also shown how screening in low-risk populations and screening for multiple diseases will produce a substantial burden of false-positive results. Finally, we have offered several recommendations to reduce potential harms and mistakes from the use of multiple screening tests among individuals for whom the medical benefits cannot outweigh the harms and the likelihood of compensation may be low. Some recommendations are directed at agents that would need to amend RECA (or RESEP) legislation; others are directed at steps that HRSA can consider without statutory changes. The next chapter picks up on the new issue in RESEP: screening for compensable disease.
For the reasons provided in detail in this chapter concerning the potential risks of depression developing in exposed populations (about which we heard testimony from Drs. Robert Ursano and Evelyn Bromet), the seriousness of the depression in terms of morbidity and mortality from suicide, and the treatability of depression, committee members Stephen G. Pauker and Catherine Borbas find it inconsistent with good medical or public health practice merely to state that "HRSA may want to consider screening for depression" in RECA populations. It is their opinion that such screening should be "recommended," as it is for adults in the general population (see USPSTF). Further, it is noteworthy that few, if any, current HRSA grantees have listed screening for depression in their current protocols, emphasizing the need for this specific recommendation.
Committee member Kathleen N. Lohr wishes to support a recommendation that HRSA expand its screening activities to include mental and emotional disorders (particularly major depression, generalized anxiety disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder), following through as needed with appropriate referrals to medical and psychiatric care relevant to the diagnoses in question. The report still contains much evidence, both from the published literature and more anecdotally from the numerous presentations at the committee's information-gathering meetings, that major and/or minor depression may well have a prevalence in these RECA populations higher than that for the general adult population. Screening for depression in adults, with the qualifications noted in the report as to the medical infrastructure needed for high-quality care, is a formal recommendation of the US Preventive Services Task Force. Numerous easy-to-use screening methods exist, and the practice of such screening is spreading (Santora and Carey, 2005).

The dry clutch is a bad design for an adventure bike and severely limits the bikes off road capabilities in my view
It's an excellent design (automotive), when properly done. BMW did this for many years with total success.
They f'ked up the 1200 series - plain and simple. It's a problem waiting to occur - and will happen.
They went from producing a very dependable bike, and one that's easy to maintain, to one that's now on the bottom of the list for rtw-type riding. And they allowed this to happen very quickly.
You can market up anything, but eventually you're living with the product produced.
Their legend and perceived value will die very soon unless the product is soon changed.
My opinion, of course...
And we have people buying these bikes who are relying on the scattered network of dealerships to support them during their riding - sound the marketing bells, please.
It's just plain wrong.

MEC: Other Assets to be Sold Separately
Several assets owned by Magna Entertainment Corp. will apparently be offered separately for sale from a $195-million "stalking horse bid" its parent company has tendered in relation to MEC's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing March 5.
A "stalking horse bid" is a financial term commonly defined as a first offer to purchase a company's assets involved in a bankruptcy proceeding.
MEC announced March 5 that it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The Associated Press is reporting court documents claim the company has between $500 million and $1 billion in liabilities, and up to 25,000 creditors.
Wall Street reacted in different ways to the bankruptcy announcement. Trading of MEC's Class A shares was halted on the Nasdaq exchange shortly after noon, closing at 22 cents, or about one cent per share when factoring in a 1-20 reverse stock split the company implemented last July. (MEC said NASDAQ will determine whether to allow continued listing of the Class A Shares or terminate the listing).
In a separate press release, MID vice chairman and chief executive officer Dennis Mills said the company is extending the stalking bid and $62.5 million in debtor-in-possession financing "with the intent of preserving the value of our secured loans to MEC."
