Jordan T. Waddell, of Louisville, was charged with criminal mischief for damaging a window at McDonald's restaurant in Taylorsville recently.
Witnesses told police that Waddell, 18, was arguing with his girlfriend on the phone when he suddenly picked up a chair and threw it at one of the front windows.
Police apprehended the teenager a short time later driving out of the strip mall parking lot.
Estimated damages range from $1,500 to $2,000 to replace and install a new window, said Taylorsville Police Chief Toby Lewis.
Spencer County Fiscal Court will be getting a little expert advice when it comes to making decisions about emergency communication services.
Magistrates approved the creation of a 9-1-1 Advisory Board Monday. The last time a similar committee existed was nearly 20 years ago.
On the recommendation of Magistrates John Riley and Hobert Judd, fiscal court approved the 9-1-1 Advisory Board's make-up and a list of duties that include evaluating the current dispatch service, communications equipment and making suggestions for improvement.
A state audit of Kentucky Association of Counties found that not only did David Jenkins contribute to the "self-serving culture" of the organization while president in 2008, but he was most likely the person who used his KACo credit card at two Louisville strip clubs and a Lexington escort service.
Spencer County FFA members represented the Kentucky FFA Association in a number of activities at the National FFA Convention was held October 20-24th in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Highlights of the convention were when Stephanie Mitchell was named one of the four national Star Finalists in Agriscience and Andrew Baird was selected as one of the four Star Finalists for Star Farmer. This was a first for the Spencer Chapter and for Kentucky. Mitchell and Baird were among finalist selected from over 1,200 members who received the American degree.
Exactly what were lawmakers thinking when they created Kentucky's statute on charter governments?
Circuit Judge Charles Hickman hopes to discover what transpired during that process as the case of City of Taylorsville v. Spencer County Fiscal Court continues into its second year.
"I think it is important that we look into the legislative history," said Hickman Friday. "What was the need for enacting the statute?"
Taylorsville-Spencer County Fire Department plans to start going door to door installing 100 donated smoke detectors, thanks to the generosity of Wal-Mart, said TSCFD Chief Nathan Nation.
"The goal of the program is to install smoke detectors in homes of the elderly, families of small children, lower income families and those who live in manufactured or mobile homes," said Nation.
If you are in need a smoke detector please call the TSCFD at 502-477-3228.

Taylorsville Police are looking for a vehicle that struck a parked car on East Main Street Sunday, October 25.
Chief Toby Lewis said that a two-door, blue Mercury Cougar was side-swiped, possibly Sunday morning, by an unknown vehicle. From evidence at the scene, police believe the vehicle to be silver or white and likely traveling east bound at the time of the accident. No injuries were reported.
Anyone with information is encouraged to call TPD at 477-3231.
The fourth annual Veterans Celebration is shaping up to be an eventful day in Taylorsville.
"It seems to build each year," said organizer D.J. Fee. "This Saturday is going to be glorious."
The Celebration grew out of Fee's outreach organization Guard Duty, which she founded when her son Sam Atkinson deployed to Iraq. This year's event will be extra-special for her as Sam came home on Halloween.
Multi-Purpose Community Action Agency needs applicants for its weatherization, credit management and foreclosure rescue programs.

I honestly would, but I quit the game, and pitched everything I owned that had SOE on it.
(Can you tell I'm a man of strong feelings? )

Ya. Many many many people get so angry when stuff goes down and they just lost everything in their game. Thats why you must limit your time on it. Otherwise it turns you into a slave. It does things to you....lol
For me, personally, (and this is just me) I was angry because I felt I had been lied to for so long. That's what made me mad. I honestly didn't spend a whole lot of time in the game (I never did make level 50, but leveling isn't important to me either). I spent A LOT of time in beta, trying to make for a good game. Heck, in beta I had about 3,000 posts, and they were posts of substance. Once it hit release, I was there to play, not test. So in the entire year that followed beta, I only had about 300 posts. So I limited my time.
I just felt lied to over and over and over again. I personally feel that some may have a) a short memory, and forget some of the things that were promised and were never delivered or just taken away, or b) just don't care.
*continues to read in disbelief at some of the stuff you're posting over here*
But like its been said, personal opinions, no one person can show you your own 'truth', figure out the lies yourself when you try the game out.
How many people you want me to pull in here that read the same thing. That announcement is no more (It probably won't come to pass) but it WAS on the tables, we did read it. People that are still playing the game like Soulfire read it. Count Zero read it. They're still playing the thing. Laughingman read it.
Regardless, lets say it never existed. Lets say I made the whole thing up. It still went from 9 servers - to 3. 3.
Uhm, how many servers does WoW have again? (I don't play WoW, but they're a good example to cite, because they ARE successful.) Successful games increase their servers, whereas unsuccessful games with a limited player base, have to decrease them.
Free Markets awards the winners (superior products) with the cash.
Free Markets punish the losers (inferior products) by causing limited, or loss in revenue.
I called gamestop. They told me they don't carry the matrix online game anymore. Well, now what? :( heh what other option is there other then to order it online?
Well the game software is a free download from here.
Then all ya gotta do is figure out how your gonna get playing. Be it from a $15 subscription for a month, a SOE gamecard from your local store or trying to hunt down a trial key for a free 10 days.
The SOE gamecard only gave it for EQ, EQII, and Planet Side. Did not say The Matrix Online

It''s like trying to dent your front bumper by backing into a tree.
They fired the W. bros! Now, what's the reason to play MxO (a little harsh I know, but that was a big incentive for me)? That's like if they fired George Lucas from SWG. Who knows how bad they'll screw it up now? Prediction: They secretly code in a way to become "the one" and eventually someone will unlock it. He/she 'll tell their friends, and get whoever is interested (now referred to as "everyone else") to try to become "the one" too (or two, depending on your sense of humor). Then someone will be nice enough to write a guide on "how to become 'the one'" and everyone will try to become "the one" also. All the neo wannabes will complain to $oe that its too hard to become "the one" and they'll create a village where "the one"s can go to get "the one" quests. It'll go too far, and $oe will smell the money in everyone wanting to be neo and just decide to let them start out as neo if they want. Then, all the veteran playerbase will feel betrayed and quit, leaving MxO near-death until $oe slowly implements old-game features to try to ressurect it.
*This prediction was adapted and changed from another MxO vet's views*
Je mettrai l'amour sur dos de moi.
Yet another doomsday prediction completely ungrounded in fact.
A) The claim of them 'firing' the bros (like they were 'employed' in the first place, haha) is a complete and utter falsehood.
B) Oddly enough SWG is a seperate entity from all other SOE games, different devs, different licence holder, different existance. Thus people who instantly compare it with any other SOE games are blatanly misinformed.

....if they operate under the SOE logo....then guilty by association. SOE can rot in hell.
Precisely Bama1267,
Lets face it, SOE's pi** poor relations with their customers, butchering games has led to a state where we have ENTIRE THREADS dedicated on this board: Official SOE hatred thread. SWG's subscriber base went straight down the toilet. Ask 50 gamers what their opinion is of SOE - and 1) You'll have a heated topic and 2) the majority, I'll bet you 3 months of an MMO subscription, will despise SOE.
SOE sucks, and can take their games and rot in h*ll.
It's as I said in the other thread, those who defend MxO and SOE's association with it, really aren't that experienced. They think UO is a new fangled disease. LOL.

LOL do people still bitch about sony messing up SWG. WHO CARES SWG was a shit game before sony changed the combat system, so stop crying
As far as MXO goes ive been playing that game since launch, the game had bugs and the combat system was buggy, sony have done a good job with this new combat system. If you played the old system then you will know now that the new combat flows better than it ever did.
And there support has improved they have helped me out alot over the past few days with problems ive been having.
I like what sony have done with MXO.
I wonder who is going to run to mommy first about my post, lol mommy mommy this person likes sony for what they do they must not have been around online gaming for long

The the Leader, the Pariah, the Victor, the Messiah - this is War.
Haha, you're a legend!
Personally, I was thinking of the EQ debacles. But since you bring up SWG, yeah, that fits too. Oh, and MxO is just the latest in the long line.
Let's look at MxO's great "content" shall we? Ever changing "story" shall we. You only get ONE NEW MISSION PER WEEK! ONE! THAT'S IT!
Other games? Hundres of quests that differ in makeup before you even make it out of the newbie zone. You have a newbie series of quests in MxO, and then they cut out by what? Level 5? 8? That's it. End of the line except for 5 mission types. Assasionation, Escort, Courier, etc. They ALL RUN THE SAME!
But no! Wait! Once a week we get a new critical on an evolving storyline. ROFLOL. Yeah - right. It goes something like this:
We have some new intel on that lastest ___________ (insert flavor of the month) operative. But we need further information. Please go see ___________ and see what you can find out"
You go to X location.
"Yeah, so and so was here. I heard them talking about _______ but all they gave me was ____________"
"You better grab that from them X, maybe it will give us clues to the next location"
So you grab item.
"Well operative, it looks like the address of ______ (insert new flavor of the month character), an old program that did _________. We have a previous address, we're not sure if he's still there. If he is, be careful, because ______________ (Insert some tidbit that will titilate the players, but never ends up meaning anything).
You proceed to location. 2 programs / Opponents drop out of the sky, and you fight them, defeat them, and proceed to your location, arriving there.
You bust through the door, and there are a bunch of oppenents to fight.
"That's it operative? It looks like _________ fled the area"
Rinse. Repeat a few times. Then you get:
"Well, it looks like we've at least tipped our hand. We'll continue to investigate this matter of _______ (insert item that they try to make you think you discovered, when in actuality you had not) and let you know more soon. You have done great work on behalf of Zion / the Machines / The Merovingian - and they are grateful.
That's your new content? That you login once a week for. Okkkaayyyy.
Check out Mara C or Camon H for some PvP? There a party? Not sure. Did you hear the latest about X joining the X organization? Did you hear that Mus and Ven are dating again? They are? Yeah, they have now . . .What about The Collective? Oh, they are as rock solid as ever. Sareosha hasn't been around since . . . but you know. OMG - Did you read the bit on the forums! Yeah, looks like the LESIG will be dead in . . . . No way man! They have something planned that will fix it for sure. No doubt.
I just hate those MxO - haters don't you?
Hmm? What now? Off to the construct? Nah, I'm bored, roflol. Let's go to the forums. Ok, meet ya there, but I have to see if X is at Mara first. Need to give them some paypack.

And as for mission they are the same in every damn MMO well the ones that ive played like SWG, WOW, COV, COH etc etc... all the same its all one big grind.

the ONLY fuckin problem I have with SOE is the way they're getting the money they make from this game and using it on other games, it's the reason why we have a small dev base, and reason why the devs are so limited to things that they can do. Other than that, SOE did a good job cleaning up the game from all the bugs and adding new content

I'm shocked that you couldn't see the satire that saturated my post, it's probably more obvious to SWG vets. Not to mention never I claimed it to be at all true. I do agree "firing" was a poor choice of words, but it's still a bad move to cut off input from the men who created the Matrix franchise. SOE is SOE, whether MxO, SWG, or EQ. Whichever title they work through, it can't change my horrible opinions of them.
Don't give me a "Can't knock it till you try it" argument. I played the free trial, and it sucked.
Je mettrai l'amour sur dos de moi.
While i agree you have the option to defend $OE in whatever way you want - i however can learn from a mistake (Never ever trust $OE) the #1 reason i left MXO.
SWG pre-NGE was playable kind of like what MXO is now - just wait till they get gready and try for the mythical audience they can drag to MXO then you shall see what they are willing to sacrafice (perhaps even learn from it or maybe not) as with everthing the choice is yours.
Yeah.. I figured a while back that they need to just give it up and realize that Blizzard has already made WoW. They gotta stop changing the games they've already got to be more like it. Focus, perhaps, on making the *next* game they develop more WoW-like.. but leave the current games alone. I know they're turning EQII into World of Everquest.
What they did to SWG's players, in the name of greed, is truly disgraceful - I can't blame anyone for loathing them and anything they touch after that. They basically gave an entire playerbase the middle finger, saying "yeah... thanks for all the subscription money and loyalty all these months. At the end of the day, it means nothing to us".

Hey $OE! Thanks for the few years of beta that is still going on now! (Ever hear of the joke 'it still feals like beta'? He he...) I enjoyed quiting your once popular "MMORPG" if that is what it is at all. I hope for the worse in the game that you killed so much! (Becasue it was so great from the start minus lots of errors back in beta. Still, it wasl good.) When it almost went gold that was the peak of my first MMOG and looked forward to a good game for my favorite franchise. Good luck in ruining eveything for MxO! *props* I been missing Wanner Brothers allready...

Think there are a lot of 1 Series in Taiwan? If you didn't, this should change your mind. This recent meet saw over sixty 1 Series in attendance, with twenty of them being 1M coupes, which would be impressive even in a big BMW market like the US or Germany.
Check out the event videos and photos.
UK 1M owners from 1ADDICTS had their largest owners meet yet yesterday at the Ace Cafe. Over 18 1Ms were in attendance, along with a 1M 123d replica and a 135i.
Those in attendance have begun posting their photos and videos, so check them out inside.
Production of the 1M Coupe is about to end at the Leipzig plant, and one of the last models to roll off the line is a special one-off Java Green 1M.
All its black trim pieces are finished in black chrome and the wheels are from the M3 GTS.
This isn't the first Java Green BMW however, as there has also previously been an Individual Java Green M3 Coupe produced.
The very limited production M3 GTS may be difficult to attain, so Japanese tuner Studie has taken a slightly more attainable (though still exclusive) model, the BMW 1M coupe, and given it a M3 GTS look, complete with fire orange exterior paint, black wheels and the high rear racing wing from the M3 GTS. Modifications on the Studie 1M include:
- Fire orange (u94/2) paint
- BBS ri-d painted gloss black
- Matte black gts wing
- Matte black diff
- Akrapovic exhaust w/ cf tips
- Custom vented hood
BIMMERPOST member Advevo, Andre de Vries, a race car driver and BMW enthusiast shows off his driving skills and the 1M coupe's control in some great drifting action at the Papenburg Test Track, a track usually reserved strictly for testing cars in development.
Headed by former Brabham Racing employees, Alpha-N is a company focusing on the development of carbon body components in addition to the maintenance as of all BT vehicles (Brabham Racing). Their latest creation is the 1M RS (based on the BMW 1M coupe).
It features a ventilated carbon hood, front fascia add-on carbon lower spoilers, carbon roof, carbon luggage lid spoiler and a carbon rear fascia diffuser.
For engine performance, Alpha-N offers basic upgrades which consist of a remapped ECU, new air intake and exhaust system, all … CONTINUED

Bavaria Performance based in Munich, Germany has put together an impressive 135i to 1M conversion by way of the Prior Design 135i widebody kit and a full compliment of BMW Performance parts goodies and LCI facelift retrofit items.
The most interesting modification to us however, is the tachometer from the E90/E92 M3! Full list of modifications:
Prior 1er M Coupe front bumper
Prior 1er M Coupe rear bumper
Prior 1er M Coupe front fenders
Prior 1er M Coupe side skirts
Prior 1er M Coupe rear fender flares

Steve Sutcliffe of Autocar gives us his thoughts on his BMW 1M coupe long term tester. It seems that the 1M coupe has grown on Sutcliffe over time as his review is glowing. Video inside.
German tuner Tuningwerk transforms the already potent 1M Coupe into a 514hp monster, which they've dubbed the Tuningwerk 1M RS.
What they've done with the factory 335hp / 332lb-ft N54 engine is given it a ECU tune, modified its turbos, customized cooling system with additional secondary cooler, and replaced factory exhaust with custom titanium exhaust system. This all works to produce 514hp (521PS) and 453 lb-ft torque (614Nm) (from 2800 RPM). Top speed is 186mph.
Its transmission now has a 3.25 ratio (with 3.45 ratio available) and the … CONTINUED
Powerbeast's 1M coupe is no stranger to attention, having been featured as one of our BMWs of the month recently. But, it's about to get as much attention as an 1M coupe can, having donned a Dakar Yellow coat as its newest wardrobe choice.
Dakar Yellow was last offered by BMW as a standard color for the Z3 M roadster/coupe but we still see it from time to time on late model BMWs from enthusiasts looking to give their cars a unique color, either by ordering it … CONTINUED
See the now famous 1-series-to-1M V8 conversion in action at a Red Bull drift race, in which it took first place. It's piloted by one of Egypt's top race car drivers – Rami Serry.
The car has now been sold to a famous oil and additives German company LIQUI MOLY EGYPT, which bought the car for their marketing, advertising and events purposes.
We've seen some major conversions and projects from our 1 series owners and this is one of the best yet. One 1ADDICTS member has taken his E82 120d and converted it into a 1M-bodied car with the S65 V8 engine from the M3!!
In addition to the engine transplant, the car had to have custom bodywork on rear fenders, 1M body panels fitted, M3/1M suspension fitted, exhaust made to fit the new body, and 1M 19″ wheels. The icing on the cake was retrofitting the … CONTINUED
Site member and renowned driver Advevo shows how much driving skill equalizes the power and performance difference between cars. The 1M is no slouch but on paper it gives up much to the lightweight M3 GTS, but Advevo manages to keep it a very close race on this Nurbrugring lap.
This lap by Advevo in his 1M was completed in just 7.45, an impressive task in and of itself.
German tuner Hartge has released its tuning program and cosmetic upgrades for the 1 series M coupe.
For more power, the Hartge ECU tune for the 1M's N54 engine paired with its sports exhaust system pushes the 1M's power from the factory 335hp/332lb-ft to 396hp and 391lb-ft torque.
The resulting real-world performance increase? According to Hartge, their 1M goes from 0-200kmh (124mph) in 11.34 seconds (a 2.18 second increase over the factory 1M's 13.52 seconds). On top of that, there's an increase in efficiency of 0.5L/km less consumption … CONTINUED
The results are in from Car and Driver's sixth annual Lightning Lap Tests @ Virginia International Raceway (VIR).
BMWs tested in this year's Lightning Lap include the 1M coupe, 335is, X5 M, and Z4 sDrive35is. How did each model fare? See inside.
No, this isn't a shot from outside the Leipzig factory where the 1M was manufactured. This is from a Southern California 1ADDICTS meet where no less than 20 1M coupes gathered this past weekend for a meet & greet. No surprise as the SoCal area is likely to have the biggest concentration of 1Ms in any single geographic area in the world. Check out the great photos inside.
The first 1M + 1-series 1addicts Family get together in Australia was held in Sydney, Australia recently at the Dose Espresso cafe on the Northshore. A good turnout from the local and not so local BMW community.

All right, I like the concept, as an old typography professional who worked in that field in the 1970s and 1980s.

Today is an interesting one. The Reds have played one more than the three other teams they are competing with. Today it evens out with the Reds on the sidelines, sleeping off yesterday's marathon/flight.
The Padres did their job in Pittsburgh, can't expect a sweep, not surprised Pirates are well ahead today. Forget that one.
The Cards face Roy Oswalt for the Rockies. Maybe Roy can pitch one more tough ballgame. That one starts in about 45 minutes.
Finally, Miami is in DC for four. Hope the Marlins can win a couple. Marlins pitcher Alvarez pitched well last time at Citifield and his ERA for the year is below 4. He faces Gio Gonzalez.
Let's go Rockies/Marlins. At least one of you need to win today, preferably both.

According to a recent report from the University of Manchester, fiction can be just as powerful as facts in teaching people about the world.
The report — "The Fiction of Development: Literary Representation as a Source of Authoritative Knowledge" — was written by David Lewis, Dennis Rodgers, and Michael Woolcock, and actually came out earlier this year. (I found out about it thanks to the Guardian.)
It's steeped in academic, but the abstract lays it all out:
This article introduces and explores issues regarding the question of what constitute valid forms of development knowledge, focusing in particular on the relationship between fictional writing on development and more formal academic and policy-oriented representations about development issues. We challenge certain conventional notions about the nature of knowledge, narrative authority, and representational form, and explore these by comparing and contrasting selected works of recent literary fiction that touch on development issues with academic and policy related representations of the development process, thereby demonstrating the value of taking literary perspectives on development seriously. Not only are certain works of fiction "better" than academic or policy research in representing central issues relating to development, but they also frequently reach a wider audience and are therefore more influential. Moreover, the line between fact and fiction is a very fine one. The article also provides a list of relevant works of fiction that we hope academics and practitioners will find both useful and enjoyable.
They use some decent examples of how literary works can portray more about a culture than fact-based documents, such as Chinua Achebe and Naguib Mahfouz (and the list of recommended titles, which includes Fuentes, Vargas Llosa, and Frisch, is really quite good), and also focus on how the popularity of a work of fiction greatly amplifies its impact:
For example, the US invasion of Afghanistan and continuing "war on terror" have obviously played a significant role in the success of Khaled Hosseini's extraordinarily popular novel The Kite Runner (2003), which has arguably done more to educate Western readers about the realities of daily life in Afghanistan (under the Taliban and thereafter) than any government media campaign, advocacy organisation report, or social science research.
I'm no fan of The Kite Runner, but regardless, it's nice to see a formal, reputable report documenting what many of us (editors, booksellers, readers) have believed for years: one of the best ways to learn about the world is to read great works in translation.
Founded in 1960 by such creative pioneers as George Perec, Raymond Queneau and Italo Calvino, the Oulipo, shorthand for Ouvroir de littérature potentielle, came about in when a group of writers and mathematicians sought constraints to find new structures and. . .

At long last, the Liberian Senate after vigorous debate and split views over Liberia Armed Forces participation in Mali, the Body has dropped all political concerns on humanitarian grounds to allow AFL show case in the peace keeping mission in Bamako.
On January 19, 2013 Liberia through President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf at an Extraordinary ECOWAS summit committed to join other sisterly West African States in confronting the forces that threatening the territorial integrity of Mali.
Initially, the Senate has opposed the decision to commit the Armed Forces of Liberian to any peace keeping mission on grounds that the President did consult with the first Branch of Government before committing the Armed Forces of Liberia.
From the onset, the President did not communicate with the Senate when the Media pick the issue up. But as soon as it was reported in the media that Liberia would be sending troops to Mali, the Senate, on January 24 in one of its sitting questioned the intent of the President's decision without the approval of the Body. And based upon the media report on such a crucial security matter, the Senate wasted no time to summoned the Minister of Justice, Defense, and Finance to ascertain from them the intent, purpose and financial implications involved in committing Liberian Troops to Mali.
Before the Communications from the Senate to the three Ministers could reach them, PresidentSirleaf, realizing the need for an approval from the legislature before she can act on her pledge, January 21 quickly wrote the Senate on the matter. In her letter to the Senate, the President said she"pledged, based on the recommendation of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and National defense who have earlier participated in the prior Security Council Meeting, that Liberia would contribute troops from the AFL to ECOWAS deployment".
Considering the size of the country, in her communication,the President told the body that the pledge made by her consisted of only a platoon (approximately 46 persons) which would have to be integrated into the battalion of Nigerian troops. Noting that she is "convinced that sending troops to Mali was the right thing to do"
As a matter of coordination, the three Ministers wasted no time and appealed before the full plenary of the Senate on January 29 to provide the implications involve in sending the Liberian troops to Mali.
Taking the stands before the Senate, the Justice Minister- Cllr Christiana Tarr told the body that the President did not commit Liberia at the ECOWAS summit but what the President did was an idea proposed pending the Senate approval and not as it as been insinuated in the Press. For his part, Defense Minister BrannieSamukai who was infactic told the Senate he had gone to interpret the "intent" of the President, Madam Ellen Johnson Sirleaf 's proposal to the Legislature-asking the body to approve the troop presence in Mali. He however felt short of stating the budgetary implication per soldier and/or what is the exactly salary of an AFL soldier in Mali's service. But Minister Samukai stated before the Senate that by the approval of the Legislature, a platoon of the AFL numbering at most 50 would be sent as an "integrated combat force" within the Nigerian battalion.
Financially, Minister Amara Kanneh was blunt to the senate that sending troops to Mali will cause the country much money. He, just as Minister Samukai, could not also give figure.
After their convincing presentation before the Senate, the body wasted no time to approved the President's reguest for the dispatch of the platoon on grounds that Mali, helped through the ECOWAS peace initiative to restore peace to the Liberia during her civil crisis during which many Malians lost their lives and/or uncured harms one way of the other and it was just timely in whatever way to reciprocate .
If all goes well as planned, in 45 days from now on, for the first time since the end of the Liberian civil crisis, the people of Liberia will reciprocate their humanitarian gestures to the People of Mali to ensure that war in that Country is brought under control with their Military intervention. But what remain to be uncleared is how much will it cost the people of Liberia to support their troops in Mali. More besides, political activists are concern as to how Liberia will be recognized in the Mali Mission since Liberian troops will be undered the direct military control of Nigeria?

Carla Katz
Carla A. Katz (born 1959) served as president of Local 1034 of the Communications Workers of America from 1999 until 2008, representing 16,000 public and private sector workers in the state of New Jersey. Katz is currently full-time faculty at Rutgers University and an attorney with the firm of Cohen, Placitella and Roth in Red Bank, New Jersey.
Katz was born[where?] to Arnold and Angelina Katz and was raised in Paterson, Passaic County, New Jersey[1] before moving with her family to Edgewater Park, Burlington County, New Jersey.[2] Her father worked as a factory laborer in Paterson before getting a sales job in Burlington County, where he later served as mayor of Edgewater Park Township in 1982 and 1983.[3][4]
Katz attended Burlington County College and graduated from Rutgers University with a bachelor's degree in labor studies in 1981.[5] In 1995, she received a master's degree from Rutgers in labor and employment relations. A year after graduating from Rutgers, she started as an organizer for the Communications Workers of America (CWA) and rose through the ranks to become president of Local 1034 in 1999. Local 1034 was CWA's largest local union in the country with more than 16,000 members in both the public and private sector. Katz served as a Commissioner of the Public Employment Relations Commission for five years on an appointment by Governor Donald DiFrancesco.
Katz enrolled at Seton Hall University School of Law in 2004[5] and graduated with a juris doctor four years later.[6][7]
She has been a visiting part-time lecturer at Rutgers and contributes to the "NJ Voices" blog on NJ.com.[8] In May 2009, the radio station WKXW (101.5 FM) announced that Katz would join the afternoon drive show "The Jersey Guys" in a series of appearances.[9]
In March 2010, Katz joined the Livingston, New Jersey law firm Fox & Fox LLP. She was "of counsel" to the firm, specializing in labor law.[10][11]
Katz has two children, Montana and Cooper McKim, with her ex-husband Larry McKim, a New Jersey artist.[12][5][13][14][1][15][16]
Relationship with Jon Corzine[edit]
Katz first met Jon Corzine in the spring of 1999, when he was running for the United State Senate. As Katz later recalled, Corzine offered her a job on his Senate campaign, but she declined the job offer.[17] Corzine and Katz were soon dating, appearing in public as a couple in early 2002, shortly after Corzine's separation from his wife Joanne. (The Corzines divorced the following year.) Katz and Corzine lived together in Hoboken from April 2002 until their breakup in August 2004.[18]
Corzine gave Katz a $470,000 mortgage for her home in Alexandria Township, New Jersey, which he later forgave.[19]
Corzine was sworn in as governor in January 2006 and maintained a close friendship with Katz. A state ethics panel, responding to a complaint from Republican Bogota mayor Steve Lonegan, ruled in May 2007 that Katz's personal contact with Corzine during labor negotiations did not violate the governor's code of conduct.[18] Separately, New Jersey Republican State Committee Chairman Tom Wilson filed a lawsuit to release all e-mail correspondence between Corzine and Katz during the contract negotiations. On May 30, 2008, New Jersey Superior Court Judge Paul Innes ruled that at least 745 pages of e-mail records should be made public, but Corzine's lawyers immediately appealed the decision.[20][21]
Corzine won his case on appeal, and on March 18, 2009, the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled that it would not hear arguments in the case, effectively ending the legal battle to make his e-mails with Katz public.[22]

I originally posted this in the track section, but since I plan to ride on the street, I feel it's more suitable here.
I recently came across a craigslist posting for a pursuit bike at a pretty decent price. Now, I'm planning to use it for street riding and was wondering if anyone had ridden a pursuit on the street. I'm mostly worried about the front wheel because a) it's 650c and b) carbon fiber. It's size leads me to think it'll throw my center of gravity dangerously forward for street riding and it's material just seems like a theft magnet. I was thinking I might just replace the fork and front wheel in time. But would that throw the whole geometry off? I've ridden fixed before, and the bike has a brake but was wondering if this is a good buy for my needs. Here are some photos to give you an idea of what it looks like. Thanks.

Gateway Clipper FleetRead MoreMore than 50 years ago, Mr. John E. Connelly set his sights on cleaning up Pittsburgh's polluted three rivers and returning them to their former glory as the Steel City's heart and soul. As then-treasurer of the Allegheny County Sanitary Authority, John was in a prime position to complete his ambition. With the belief that he could get the public engaged and committed to a cleanup, he decided to give the local people access to the rivers via boat tours, knowing the city's characteristic architecture as viewed from the rivers would engender a genuine appreciation for the region's waterways and environment. After getting his nephew, Captain Jack Goessling, on board, John purchased a 100-passenger fishing boat they would christen the Gateway Clipper, which would later launch from Monongahela Wharf for the first of its many pleasure cruises. Today, with Gateway Clipper Fleet, his dream of engaging locals and visitors in the city's history and waterways thrives with a fleet that has grown to five boats capable of accommodating 2,500 guests. Through the years, the fleet has ferried more than 25 million passengers, treating them to dinner cruises, sightseeing tours, and entertainment jaunts along the clean, blue waters of Pittsburgh's three rivers.350 W Station Square DrPittsburgh, PA US
Fun Fest Entertainment CenterRead MoreAt Fun Fest Entertainment Center, friends and families come together for everything from bowling and birthday parties to games of pool or karaoke crooning over a few drinks. Five days a week, a cosmic bowling experience enhanced by neon lights, thumping music, and fog machines transports guests into a parallel universe where people must knock down pins before they sprout legs and start to dance. Adjacent to the bowling lanes, the Center's arcade lures thrill seekers with novel amusements including air hockey, a giant Connect Four game, and a karaoke machine that can record performances on DVD. Incandescent murals of planetary systems and supernovas surround guests as they take aim at intergalactic enemies in the darkened corridors of the Cyber Quest Laser Tag arena. In between gaming, players can refuel on draft and bottled beer and food such as pizza, burgers, and chicken wings.2525 Freeport Road,PittsburghPittsburgh, PA US
Wildwood HighlandsRead MoreWildwood Highlands serves an all-ages buffet of adrenaline-filled rides and fun-soaked activities that visitors can access with fistfuls of tickets. For five-minute intervals, go-karts whip through a winding, 1,000-foot course that challenges mini-motorists' reflexes, hand-eye coordination, and familial bonds with each cutoff to the inner rail. Visitors can captain bumper boats through the 5,000-square-foot Wildwood waters, thumping vessels as they pass fountains and circumvent the island. Four levels of soft playground in the Kiddie City keeps kids hopping and Woody's Den enchants small children with calliope music and magical animals who steer tots toward the spinning slime-bucket ride and old-fashioned train. The 28-person Laser Extreme laser tag system can grab the attention of older kids (and adults), while two 18-hole miniature-golf courses school putters in the principles of geometry and psyching out competitors with inopportune coughs and cackles. Wildwood's arcade entices button smashers with more than 70 games that they can play to win tickets, which can be redeemed for prizes such as stuffed animals and action figures. While bouncing from attraction to attraction, thrill seekers can recharge their energy with pizzas, wraps, pretzels, and cotton candy at the snack bar.2330 Wildwood Rd.Wildwood, PA US

talk about an overreaction to a game....
Cormier was the guy who turned it into a blowout. Why he was left in to face Lane is beyond my comprehension.
insantiy keep doing the same thing over and over with coffey, santos had just pitched a perfect seventh . Is he only allowed to pitch a designated inning? Talk about iane overmanaging
2006 Redszone Prospect Draft - Johnny Cueto
2007 Redszone Prospect Draft - Pedro Viola, Alexis Oliveras
2007 Redszone Mock Draft - 1st (27) Michael Burgess, Supp. (60) Wes Roemer, 2nd (92) Barry Enright, 3rd (122) Jonathan Bachanov
2009 Redszone Mock Draft - 1st (9) Shelby Miller, 2nd (58) Marc Krauss, 3rd (89) Daniel Fields
Coffey should not be used as the set-up man right now though. As I said in the game thread, this is exactly like June of last year when Weathers was getting lit up on a daily basis and Narron was still running him out everyday.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
No, but he should get demoted to mop up duty until he gets his confidence back. Dude just loses everything when a runner gets on base.
Bill Bray needs to get healthy. Not sure how he'll be, but he's not Cormier. It's a start.
"I saw Wedding Crashers accidentally. I bought a ticket for Grizzly Man and went into the wrong theater. After an hour, I figured I was in the wrong theater, but I kept waiting. Thats the thing about bear attacks. They come when you least expect it."-Dwight K. Schrute
I can't speak for everyone but MRoby and I hope he gets sent down.
Most Vottomatic Player
Only if Cormier can go with him.
No doubt Coffey has struggled this season, but it's still only been 8 innings. Way too trigger happy to send him to the minors.
It was a poor idea to let him pitch 3 games in a row. I figured pitching him yesterday was a good idea to let him get things together in an easy situation. With 2 innings to go, I thought Saarloos and Weathers were the obvious guys to use in the 8th and 9th innings, and if you need a lefty for a batter, then Coutlangus was probably the best option seeing Stanton was used 2 innings last night.
Not Narron's best night IMO. Coffey and Cormier suffered because they were not put in the right situations to succeed.
Hoping for another Reds October
For me, Coffey being sent down is not in the actual pitching, but the 3 hit batsmen. It's a huge sign of immaturity. One nice thing is that Narron will not be allowed any love affairs with poorly performing pitchers this year--we've got the arms. Sorry Jerry, one to a bathroom.

What are your thoughts on it ? I know some people are averse to change, especially after having the same theme song for several years. I think with this new one we've had four theme songs ? Anyways, I love it. I think it's the best one so far and I hope the gang keeps it for a while.

It's still good, but it's my least favorite version of the song by lots. Favorite is still Version 3 or the holiday version. I liked the light jazz version from the 2012 GOTY casts a lot, too.

I think the second theme they did was my favorite, its so boisterous and "hoppy." It also sounds very similar to the first theme they used.
Season 2 all the way. When I think "Bombcast" I think of those grinding synths and that smashing snare.
Season 1's still holds a special place in my heart, but nothing before or since has touched the Season 2 theme.
I'd say: Season 2, Season 1, Season 4, Season 3.

I really like that they changed it, and I think it's the most unique, but it's easily my least favorite so far. I liked the old funkadelic version best.

New one is definitely my least favorite. I liked Season 2 the best.
I'm not a fan, at all. I mean, it's alright, but it's completely lost any of the ability to get you pumped up, which was the focus of the previous ones it felt like, and this just feels like a remix.
The best one by a mile was that Ska band, they should have recorded that, and then the first one with the AWESOME BASSLINE comes second for me.

Yeah I'd be down to have the jazz version being the official theme. I remember the old 8-bit sounding one from a few years back, when the album art was still the rainbow and cartoons...I liked that one.

The front end of this new one just sounds too generic to me so I'm pretty meh on it. The back end is better but overall, the jazzy theme is miles ahead of this one. Kinda wish they had reversed it and blown our minds with the jazzy tune for the year. Ah well, can't win 'em all I guess. Maybe it'll grow on me, who knows.

Kamal Nissanka, Attorney-at-Law
BA (Hon), PgD(International Relations)
The impeachment motion filed against the chief justice of Sri Lanka a few days ago (Nov 1, 2012) has resulted in bringing a political storm especially within the legal and political sphere of the island. The voices of politicians and political parties are heard around on the theme while the legal community is coming forward with various constructive criticisms regarding the whole national drama. In this developing situation it is worthwhile to look in comparison another friendly Asian country that brought its Chief Justice through an impeachment process this year and dismissed him from the high profile post in May 2012. He was Mr. Renato .C. Corona, then Chief Justice of Philippines.
Mr. Corona was made the chief justice of Philippines just a few weeks back to the Presidential Election of 2010 by then Philippine President Ms Gloria Arroyo. Previously he was the Chief of Staff of the former President Ms Gloria Arroyo administration. In our situation the incumbent Chief Justice was appointed a Supreme Court judge in 1996 by then President Ms. Chandrika Kumaratunga. When she assumed the duties as a Supreme Court judge she had to face three fundamental rights cases against her which were decided by a bench of seven judges. One petitioner argued that Ms Shirani Bandaranayaka was pro devolution. It was a period where the People's Alliance government under Ms Chandrika Kumaratunga was pushing her draft for a new constitution. Former President might have thought that a judge in the caliber of Ms Shirani Bandaranayake would have been advantageous to the expected legal challenges in that era. We don't know the exact rationale behind the appointment surpassing carreer judges. It took further 15 more years for Ms Shirani Bandaranayaka to sit on the august bench of the Supreme Court as the first woman Chief Justice in Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka.
The saga of impeachment is also linked to her husband's fate, a political appointee by the President Mr. Mahinda Rajapakse as a member of the board of directors, first to Insurance Cooperation, then to the Lanka Hospitals and finaly as the chairman of the National Savings Bank (NSB). Whether he was correct or incorrect, corrupted or clean under his chairmanship the NSB was involved in an unjustified share deal bringing public distrust on the bank. Two weeks before the impeachment motion against chief justice, a case was filed against her husband on bribery and corruption charges.
On World Children's Day the Country Director of UNICEF in Sri Lanka, Mr Reza Husseini, opened an English Activity Centre at the Karandana Junior School in the Eheliyagoda Educational Division. The Centre, which also includes two classrooms for Grade V students, and looks out over the local hills, was built with decentralized funds allocated by Prof Rajiva Wijesinha.
Mr Husseini unveiled the plaque which was in English and Sinhala and Tamil, and students introduced the programme in all three languages. The school also presented Sinhala and Tamil Folk Dance items with great skill and enthusiasm.
Students from Sri Jinaratna Maha Vidyalaya, the Karandana Secondary School, welcomed Mr Husseini with a traditional dance. Accompanying them was an English Volunteer Teacher, Ms Melissa Hughes, whose work follows that of an earlier Volunteer at the Junior School. Other Volunteers have also served in schools in Eheliyagoda and Kiriella and Ruwanwella under the same programme, which has contributed to greater confidence amongst school children in the use of English.

Originally written on Next Impulse Sports | Last updated 11/14/12
Back in August, the Sacramento Bee reported on a rumor that the Sacramento Kings were headed to Virginia Beach. Their source even went so far as to say an official deal would be announced between Kings owners Gavin and Joe Maloof, and the city of Virginia Beach. Obviously, that never happened (sources, right?). The blogosphere weighed in, mostly poo-pooing even a remote possibility of such a move. However, a few writers have argued in support, mainly citing the "no pro sports competition" factor that has made the Sonics/Thunder's move to Oklahoma City such a success (Although it could easily be argued that landing Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, James Harden and Serge Ibaka in consecutive drafts might have played a role). Now, the Bee is back with news that Virginia Beach mayor Will Sessoms met with an NBA team recently to discuss a possible move. Those pesky unnamed sources have also been leaking info to Virginia Beach news outlets that the anonymous NBA team is, in fact, the Sacramento Kings (excuse me while I sit down — the room is spinning). The Kings' only comment on the matter is that numerous cities have approached them about relocation. The fact the Kings have been approached by multiple suitors is certainly believable — business is booming, ratings are up, and the league is full of young stars. This gives the Maloofs all the leverage they need to sell the Kings to Chris Hansen someone for $500 million — money which they could use, because they don't really have any. Meetings with mayors of resort cities is definitely one way to accomplish that. via Seattle Weekly Article found on: Cosby Sweaters

Dollhouse to midseason... and other network news
Ok, it is after midnight here in the Jet City, and as I sit down to bang this post out on my beloved Model M it would appear that my tasty glass of juice is half empty. Maybe I'm just not in the right frame of mind to spin this news in a positive direction that will lead to a 2009 full of Dollhouse win.
Tucked away in a report on various network goings on over at Hollywood Reporter is a little line that says "Dollhouse is expected to launch mid-season." This is me shaking my fist in the general direction of Fox and screaming "Khaaaaan!" Just, because. Doesn't this seem like a road that has been traveled before? It's one that usually leads to a pretty disappointing destination. We haven't seen the finished fall schedule yet, but I would wager that most of us could easily find three or four hours where the network would be better served by inserting Dollhouse. Highlights of what the networks have planned are available after the jump.
The Inn is in, but Kelsey & Patty are dumped
Bateman, who starred in Arrested Development -- the Emmy-award winning comedy that the network dumped unceremoniously because of low ratings -- was behind the camera for The Inn pilot. The show, which is about the haves and have-nots in a fancy, five-star New York City hotel, has a promising cast of funny folks including Niecy Nash (Reno 911!), Jerry O'Connell (who looks like Jason's twin), and the really hilarious Jesse Tyler Ferguson (remember him on The Class -- he was so funny!).
Jason Bateman to direct pilot for FOX
Hollywood people are strange folk. In the normal world people who are sacked by the company they worked for wouldn't normally return to it in another capacity, especially if they were treated poorly during their employment. Yet, for some reason, when actors are let go from a network because of a show cancellation they tend to go back for more punishment.
Take Jason Bateman as an example. After his critically-acclaimed and fan-favorite comedy Arrested Development was unceremoniously canceled by FOX in 2006 you would think that he wouldn't step anywhere near the network. In fact, you would think that he would jump to another network and make it big just to rub it in FOX's face. Yet, there is news that he is directing a comedy pilot for them. Go figure.

Top 50 Power Showrunners 2011
How did Weiner grow up to create TV's most literate show, one of only three in history to win four consecutive Emmys for best drama? Maybe because he got rotten grades. "I was a horrible student, literally 100th out of 120 people in my high school class," he says. "So TV was the first thing taken away." The L.A. native instead watched classic movies and pored over books in his free time, which led to higher test scores, entry into Wesleyan University, then USC Film School and writing jobs on Biography, Becker and The Sopranos, where he won two Emmys. "Even on Becker, the job that forced me to write Mad Men," says Weiner, "I still realized I was in major league baseball: Only 300 people in the country had this job. Part of the origin of Mad Men was my saying, 'I'm 35, I have all this stuff, I've achieved part of my dream, anybody's dream, and I'm still completely unsatisfied. And that was sort of the story of Don Draper." Though as charmed as Weiner's career has become with Mad Men, which returns in March, his humble years are always within a memory's reach. "My worst job was writing an interactive CD ROM in Orange County about Richard Nixon," he says. "The cubicle, the birthday cakes, the office gossip, the 45-minute commute … it was misery."

After overcoming all the divorce drama, I feel...
After overcoming all the divorce drama, I feel secure and happy with myself, but...life is meant for two... I was born and raised in Europe. I can be very spontaneous and be up to about anything on the spur of the moment. I have a daughter who is almost grown up and she is still very big part of my life. Being a single again I am discovering a new world to myself now... Don't watch too much TV, except news channel and Netflix. I love to read and listen to most music from classical piano concertos to edgy rock. I like ballet, theater, opera and modern dance. Broadway musicals usually don't do it for me. But, I did take my daughter to see a few shows when she was younger… I like to be pampered, but I can be comfortable standing on my own two feet as well. I don't consider myself being materialistic but I do appreciate less but higher quality things in life. A little obsessed with good coffee in the morning, dark chocolate, quality bed linens and... champagne. I am looking for a partner who is intelligent but humble, who knows how to play but is not a player. Someone who treats me with love and respect, who is not short in his efforts at romance and accepts me the way I'm, not exactly perfect. I'm looking for the one guy who shares my positive attitude, enjoys life exuberantly, is intellectually curious, physically active, up for just about anything, and is in a great place to establish a long term relationship.

Ever tried to make sense of the legalese often used in government documents? It's no easy task. Now, one organization determined to enforce clarity is preparing to issue report cards on the government's use of easier-to-understand vernacular.
Under 2010's Plain Language Act, which went into effect July 2011, federal agencies are required to "write all new publications, forms and publicly distributed documents in a 'clear, concise, well-organized' manner," according to www.plainlanguage.gov.
On July 19 the non-profit Center for Plain Language will release the report cards in a briefing with Rep. Bruce Braley (D-Iowa), the main sponsor of the act, and Annetta Cheek, chair of the Center for Plain Language.
The act requires agencies to take a number of steps in increasing transparency, including designating a senior official to oversee the implementation, communicating the requirements to and training employees in plain writing, establishing a compliance process, and establishing a section of the agency's website on plain writing. It also mandates the agency designate a point of contact to receive and respond to the public's comments on the agency's implementation and required reports, according to a release from Braley's office.
The report cards will grade agencies on a scale of A to F on their progress in implementing these requirements.

On 02/6th/2010 we had a community poverty Eradaication day organized by Mama Africa international Ministries in Uganda . venue :KIEREDDE COMMUNITY (Mama Africa international ministries operational area .
Many women came to us as the organization & to me individually for help and they turned out to be many for a individual support .so we decided to ask them to go into groups whicg they did and after they name dtheir own groups names like kamu kamu ,tukole bukozi and many more .we got 7 groups each with 3 people.
We got different groups according to their religions because some are moslims and some are christians
those who are moslims got sheeps and those who are christian wanted to look after pigglets .
With the help of friends that i went on speaking to ,we managed to get people who bought 3 heads of sheeps and 5 pigglets and one mother pig for each group
so we invited even the local counsils ,LC1 chairman ,conselors of the village and the people around the community to sensitise them more about how we can fight poverty together in the community not just as an individaul family .
We know it as an organization that no one ever be capable of monitoring his/her wealth with out being healthy so we also invited TASO UGANDA (THE AIDS SUPPORT ORGANIZATION) WHICH GOES AROUND THE RURAL AND URBAN AREAS OF UGANDA SENSITIZING people more about HIV AIDS ,how to fight and protect them selve for those who are not HIV positive and they sensitized MORE Teanagers about how they can protect them selves and those who are HIV positive how to live longer and look after their wealth .
