Josh Mandel avoided directly answering a question about the auto bailout for five straight minutes during a recent meeting with the Youngstown Vindicator editorial board.
In a video released today by Democrats, Mandel, the Republican opponent to Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown for Ohio's U.S. senate seat, says he would have "trouble" voting in favor of the federal bailout of Chrysler and General Motors. He cites the case of Delphi workers, who lost part of their pensions as part of the deal auto companies made with workers after the federal bailout.
But Mandel, who is also Ohio's treasurer, refused to give a straight answer on whether he would vote for or against the bailout. After five minutes of phrasing the question in different ways, the Vindicator editorial board gave up in clear exasperation.
Mandel had a similar encounter with a WDTN reporter in August. In that encounter, Mandel refused to give a straight answer to the same question. After the reporter pressed the question, Mandel smiled and quipped, "Great seeing you."
But the dodgy encounters are not Mandel's only problem with the media. Media outlets, including CityBeat, have also criticized Mandel for his dishonest campaign tactics. Cleveland's The Plain Dealer gave Mandel the "Pants on Fire" crown for Mandel's consistently poor scoring on PolitiFact Ohio.
Mandel is currently down in aggregate polling by 4.8 points.
The video of Mandel dodging the Vindicator editorial board's questions can be seen here:
Hundreds of local people interested in rebuilding the economy instead of complaining about it gathered today for two sessions organized by Gov. Ted Strickland and State Sen. Eric Kearney (D-Avondale) to explain Ohio's portion of the federal stimulus package. Besides Strickland aides, representatives from the Ohio Department of Development, Ohio Department of Job and Family Services, Ohio Department of Administrative Services, Ohio Department of Transportation and the Ohio Benefit Bank were on hand to educate local small businesses and nonprofits about utilizing stimulus dollars.
A national coalition of community groups, including two Cincinnati organizations, are urging President Obama to push big Wall Street banks into writing down all "underwater mortgages" to market value. The groups said the action would pump up to $1.6 billion into Ohio's economy and create more than 24,000 jobs statewide.
In a turnabout from a campaign pledge, Republican senatorial candidate Rand Paul is getting help raising campaign money by GOP senators who voted for the 2008 Wall Street bailout.
According to an Associated Press report, Paul is holding a fundraiser Thursday night in Washington, D.C. Although Paul earlier had said he wouldn't seek money from any politician who voted for the $700 billion bailout, nine of the 12 senators listed on the event's host committee were bailout supporters.
The U.S. stock exchanges have opened strongly this morning, following gains in Asia and Europe earlier today. The Bush Administration's ever-evolving bail-out plans are, as they say in the bidness world, fluid.
Barack Obama has opened a 10-point national lead on John McCain, according to The Washington Post. Some pundits think the race is even more lopsided in Obama's favor but that the mainstream media — either to gin up excitement over a "close" race or to not look like they're "liberal" and "in the tank" for Obama — are portraying the race as closer than it really is. We all know Obama is going to win, which will make these final few weeks of a long, negative campaign almost unbearable.
Speaking of unbearable, how about those Bengals?
I've been getting good feedback (as always) to our annual publication of the Project Censored report on stories the mainstream media missed in the past year. It's a good reminder that Americans aren't as informed as we should be, particularly on international issues, and another reason to be concerned as the the nation's major newspapers continue to struggle with economic pressure.
Enjoy your Monday and the beautiful fall weather.
The George W. Bush Presidential Library denied a request by a Democratic super PAC for documents related to Sen. Rob Portman's work in the George W. Bush administration. The library says it is not subject to the Freedom of Information Act and that all are welcome to see the documents in 2014. The super PAC, American Bridge 21st Century, has been researching GOP candidates as Mitt Romney moves closer to choosing a running mate.
"When you look at the roster of V.P. candidates, each of them is significantly flawed," American Bridge senior adviser Ty Matsdorf said in a statement. "For Portman, it is his calamitous record on fiscal issues while working at the Bush White House. It shouldn't be a shock that he is going to want to keep that under wraps for as long as possible, but unfortunately it's pretty hard to hide a record as terrible as that."

Facebook has created a new "find friends nearby" function that will allow users to see friends and people they don't know who are at events or social gatherings. From some Facebook engineer's comments on the story:
I built Find Friends Nearby with another engineer for a hackathon project. While it was originally called 'Friendshake', we settled on 'Find Friends Nearby' for launch (the URL was a little bit of a homage to the previous iteration).
For me, the ideal use case for this product is the one where when you're out with a group of people whom you've recently met and want to stay in contact with. Facebook search might be effective, or sharing your vanity addresses or business cards, but this tool provides a really easy way to exchange contact information with multiple people with minimal friction.
HBO's The Newsroom premiered last night, and this guy at the Toronto Star said it kind of sucked while the New York Times says CNN could learn something from it.
Demonstrators filling downtown's Piatt Park on Garfield Place as part of the anti-corporate, Occupy Wall Street protests should take heart: The park's namesakes likely would support your actions.
In an excellent post on The Daily Bellwether blog, writer Bill Sloat looks at the history of the Piatt brothers, Donn and Abram, and the causes they held dear. Abram Piatt was a wealthy farmer and poet who served as a general for the Union Army during the Civil War. Donn Piatt was a staff officer for the Union Army.
More than 20 Occupy Cincinnati protesters last night received citations for staying at Piatt Park after its official closing time, a process which included warnings by police and then some peaceful ticketing before police left the occupiers to their business. CityBeat has launched a page dedicated to our ongoing coverage of the protests, including a live feed of #occupycincinnati and #occupycincy hashtags.
Before it went down to a crushing defeat, top officials at the Treasury Department and Federal Reserve were describing the $700 billion bailout plan that failed Monday in starkly different terms during private conversations with Wall Street investors.
As most people know, the proposed bailout failed yesterday in a surprising 205-228 vote, defying the wishes of President Bush as well as Democratic and Republican party leaders. Overall, there were 140 Democrats in favor of the plan and 95 opposed, with 65 Republicans in support and 133 opposed.
Progressive bloggers were tipped off that Treasury officials were holding a secret conference call with Wall Street executives Monday before the vote and managed to access the call and listen in. What they heard reveals a lot about who really wields power in the U.S. political system, and how Congress — both Democrats and Republicans — shade the truth for constitutients.
Treasury officials reportedly told the executives that provisions calling for the $700 billion to be given in phased payments were a formality and the entire amount could be accessed at once, if needed. Also, provisions limiting executive pay at failed firms were mostly symbolic and would have little actual effect, as they didn't affect existing contracts.
Further, clawback provisions that would attempt to help taxpayers recoup some of the money once assets were sold by the government "would need more congressional and presidential action to implement" and was unlikely to occur.
It's interesting how Treasury Department appointees — who are supposed to be acting in the public's interest — give a different description of the bailout in private.
Meanwhile, Democratic and Republican leaders promise to try again with a revised bailout plan when they reconvene Thursday. Already the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the National Association of Realtors are busy trying to pressure GOP lawmakers into approving a bailout plan, threatening to withhold campaign cash from those who don't.
Although hometown boy and House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-West Chester) initially tried to blame the bill's defeat on a fiery floor speech by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, today's Washington Post undercuts that position. GOP leaders said later they had been pessimistic about the bill's chances from the start because many conservative representatives were ideologically opposed to a large, taxpayer-funded intervention. In fact, Boehner and others seriously considered asking Pelosi to delay any vote Monday, The Post reports.
Adhering to simplistic GOP talking points, Hamilton County Republican Party Chairman Alex Triantafilou blasts Pelosi on his blog for the bill's defeat. Ol' Alex defends Boehner, adding his stance showed leadership. What, then, does the opposing position taken by Steve Chabot, Jean Schmidt, Geoff Davis and the rest of Greater Cincinnati's Republican congressional delegation show? The chairman is remaining mum on that one.
Some observers on both the right and the left describe what happened Monday as a modern day Boston Tea Party, with an angry public finally standing up to an out-of-control investor class. Let's hope the party doesn't peter out anytime soon.

An organization of retired labor union workers is praising the failure of Congress' so-called "super committee" to agree on a deficit reduction deal as a good development for elderly Americans.
The Ohio chapter of the Alliance for Retired Americans said many politicians, especially Republicans, are unfairly blaming the deficit on Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. They are using the budget battle as an excuse to dismantle programs they dislike, the group added.

Chuck's List: I wish I'd have known your name, Nicolas Cheque
A one-man opinion poll.
Nicolas Cheque
Nicolas Cheque
I was a three-sport athlete in high school, so I like competition. I like physicality. But I realized long ago that I'm a poet, not a warrior and it's the poet's job to write about the exploits of the warrior. Nicolas Cheque was a born warrior. When he decided he wanted to be a soldier, he didn't want to be just any soldier, he wanted to be a Navy SEAL. And as a SEAL, Cheque helped kill Osama bin Laden. We have learned the names of other members of SEAL Team 6 from their decisions to cash in on killing bin Laden. This week, we learned the name of Nicolas Cheque because he lost his life in the line of duty. Cheque was trying to rescue a fellow American from enemy capture. I wish I had known the name of Nicolas Cheque before he died. I wish we'd known his name so we could have thanked him personally. I wish I'd known Nicolas Cheque.
The Snack Cake
The Snack Cake
By the time you read this, the last Hostess product will have been sold. Poor management caused an American icon to die, despite the fact that $2.5 billion worth of product were still being moved annually. So, the Twinkie may have reached its expiration date. The Chocodile may be extinct. The Ding Dong may have been castrated. But you know something? I think great snack cakes are like great rock stars. They can always make a comeback. So, maybe Suzy Q lost an arm in an automobile accident, she'll learn to drum one-handed. And maybe Twinkie the Kid did sleep with the Zinger's wife, but I believe time heals all wounds. Mark my words, Hostess will be resurrected in one form or the other. The snack cake will tour once more. Believe me when I tell you, the Fruit Pie will live to rock another day.
Tim Cook
Tim Cook
Hey, Tim. It's me again. I think you've made this list more frequently than anyone. You've been on the up list before, but admittedly, you've been on the down list more. Sorry. Tim Cook is the CEO of Apple. He oversaw the iPhone 5 map fiasco, he's been in charge to watch Samsung make a better phone, and he's seen the company's stock tumble considerably (although it's still ridiculously high). But this week, Cook delivered on something I honestly believed was an empty promise. He delivered on something I doubt Steve Jobs would have ever considered. Cook put profit on the back burner in announcing that Apple will build a factory in the U.S. It will cost the company on their bottom line, but it's the right move. Jobs will be created (not Steve, he's dead) in the U.S. from this sacrifice, and an example will be set for other CEOs who recognize they've won at the game called capitalism and it's time to give back to the country that gave them the platform to help preserve the game we play before our greed grows to ruin everything. Thanks, Tim.
John McAfee
John McAfee
John McAfee created anti-virus software. This software made him a millionaire and millionaire's get taxed. John McAfee didn't like paying taxes. So, John McAfee moved. To Belize. And now he's been charged with murder, a claim he denies. So, McAfee has fled Belize, denying any wrongdoing, and complaining he's being denied the kind of due process an American receives. Now he wants to come home. Sorry John, but ummm...no. You can't come back. You have just received a painful lesson in what your admittedly excessive taxes buy you. You can't put a price on justice. This is why we must remember, no matter how we bicker over policy, just how amazing this country and its Constitution are.
The Colorado Pot Smoker
The Colorado Pot Smoker
One should always celebrate victory with class, but the Colorado pot smoker hasn't gotten the message. Recreational pot is now legal in the Mile High City, and apparently the smoker has every intention to spend the foreseeable future a mile high. I watched a "60 Minutes" episode recently featuring a Colorado marijuana shop. Shop owners not only intend to sell recreational pot, they will be selling marijuana candy, marijuana fruit drinks, marijuana desserts and something called marijuana puppy chow. Look, I personally don't mind if pot is sold legally. Hell, I think it's time we had a serious discussion about whether we should manufacture the product, create jobs with it, and tax the hell out of it. However, the pot user needs to act responsibly. Absolutely no selling marijuana-laced candy or puppy chow (whatever that is) over the counter. No matter how we adults evolve on the issue of marijuana, we all need to be on the same page in keeping it out of the hands of kids. Celebrate with class, Colorado pot smokers.
Jim DiMint
Jim DiMint
Let me get this straight: Apparently, you can launch a campaign for Senate, spend months collecting money from supporters across the state, make promises of what you'll do in an effort to represent your state for the next six years in the senate, accept votes that serve as markers of faith, solemnly swear to serve your state to the best of your abilities upon victory, and then quit one-third of the way through your term without any repercussions? Welcome to the Jim DiMint Plan. Well, allow me to introduce to you, the new Jim DiMint Rule. "Anyone who fails to finish their six-year senatorial term, beyond reasons of health or a crisis of faith or country or party, must repay all money they essentially stole from their campaign contributors." Or we need to have a serious discussion again regarding term limits.

Skilyr Hicks' "America's Got Talent" journey ended in Las Vegas.
Judge Heidi Klum delivered the bad news to the 14-year-old North Augusta resident and another contestant simultaneously during a pretaped episode of the NBC television show, which aired on Wednesday night.
"I need to tell you that you will not be going to New York, and I'm so sorry," Klum said.
A self-taught guitarist, singer and songwriter, Hicks vowed to continue pursuing her career in music after learning her fate.
"It's definitely not going to stop me; I'm going to keep on going," she said.
Hicks earned a trip to Las Vegas by singing her original song, "A Brand New Day," during her audition for "America's Got Talent." While she was in Nevada, Hicks performed again before the program's four judges made their decision not to include her among the contestants who advanced to the live New York shows at Radio City Music Hall. Those shows will begin next week.

Reference - Albert Sievers for Karl Muffler, Germany, 1925 Reg. No: HT 18113
- Summary:
- Employment reference for Karl Muffler by Konditorei-Fach Ausstellung, Harburg, Germany, 1925. Karl worked in a number of cake and pastry businesses in Germany and he brought this reference with him, along with a number of other qualfications documents and professional references, when he migrated to Australia in 1930 in order to practise as a pastry confectioner.
This item relates to Karl Friedrich Muffler, qualified pastry chef and confectioner, born in 1900, who migrated to Melbourne from Germany in 1930, aboard the passenger liner 'Balranald'. Muffler quickly established himself in Melbourne, commencing employment with Bill Ikinger (who had recruited and sponsored him) at his cake shop in Brunswick, as well as joining the long-running German establishment 'Club Tivoli'. Muffler went on to establish his own business, 'The Embassy' in Malvern, and in 1939 married fellow German migrant Mathilde 'Hilde' Mayer. At this time they were members of the 'German Labour Front' of which Adolf Mayer (Hilde's father) was president. On 4th September, 1939 Karl Muffler, along with dozens of other German residents (including his father-in-law), was placed into police custody as an enemy alien. He was transferred to Tatura internment camp and while there undertook woodcarving and drafting classes and worked as a cake decorator. He was transferred to a Forestry Commission camp in Broadford, and finally released in 1945. With no family left in Germany he decided to stay in Australia and became naturalised in 1947. After the war, Muffler accepted a position at William Angliss Food Trades School in Melbourne teaching ex-servicemen new skills in cake decoration. He maintained a connection to the German community though Club Tivoli and died in 1996.

dOCUMENTA (13): The Uncommodifiable Quinquennial
Olga Viso
Aug 2012
In marked opposition to the economic forces that have dominated the contemporary landscape for more than a decade, dOCUMENTA (13) curator Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev offers a vision that is fiercely skeptical of the "persisting belief in economic growth," organizing one of the most earnest, authentic, and refreshing surveys of contemporary art in my recent memory.
How Warhol Did Not Murder Painting but Masterminded the Killing of Content
Francesco Bonami
Aug 2012
"Warhol's bulimic capacity to swallow the moment and spit it out as another image helped [his Race Riot works] transform themselves into pagan icons, devoid of moral weight."
Identity and Institutionalization: Dorit Cypis on Minneapolis in the '80s
Dorit Cypis & Yesomi Umolu
Jul 2012
For Israel-born, California-based artist Dorit Cypis, the Twin Cities was home for much of the 1980s and 1990s, decades when she says the arts became institutionalized, identity politics became entrenched, and her own art more deeply embraced both politics and performance. For our ongoing series Then and Now: The Twin Cities in the 1980s, she shares her memories of a turbulent decade.
Marcel Duchamp at 125
Joan Rothfuss
Jul 2012
In celebration of the 125th anniversary of Marcel Duchamp's birth—he was born in Normandy on July 28, 1887—we look back at curator Joan Rothfuss' essay on the Dadaist provocateur from our collections catalogue, Bits & Pieces.
The Place We Call Attention: ROLU on the Open Field
Matt Olson & Paul Schmelzer
Jul 2012
From the earthy to the ethereal, the work of Minneapolis experimental design studio ROLU spans from landscape design to conceptual art, fashion to esoteric online explorations. Given this range, the Walker's grassy hillside seems a fitting site for ROLU's residency: where better to host activities by this genre-hopping trio—a group engaged in an open field of endeavors—than Open Field?
WARM in the '80s
Yesomi Umolu
Jul 2012
As executive director of the Women's Art Registry of Minnesota (WARM), the renowned feminist art collective, and a health educator during the early years of the AIDS epidemic, Catherine Jordan had clear views of two of the 1980s most pivotal concerns. Continuing our series of reflections on the Twin Cities during a turbulent decade, Jordan shares her recollections with the Walker's Yesomi Umolu.
In My Tribe
Jim Walsh
Jul 2012
A Twin Cities music legend in his own right, Jim Walsh has chronicled the scene in the pages of the Pioneer Press, Rolling Stone, and his own book, The Replacements: All Over But The Shouting, among others. Launching our new series tied to the exhibition This Will Have Been: Art, Love & Politics in the 1980s, he shares his thoughts on Minneapolis-St. Paul during a critical decade.
The Last Movement
Helen Molesworth & Bartholomew Ryan
Jun 2012
Many of the artists featured in This Will Have Been: Art, Love & Politics in the 1980s came of age in an era that saw the assimilation of two powerful and converging forces—mass-media saturation and movements for social justice. Exhibition curator Helen Molesworth talks with Walker assistant curator Bartholomew Ryan about the impetus for the show and what she hopes will resonate with viewers.
Journeys of the 25th Hour
Minouk Lim
Jun 2012
Minouk Lim engages with the arteries of city life—the streets—to create poignant artworks that speak to individual alienation amid Seoul's rapid development. Merging performance, video, and documentary, Lim says works in her Walker exhibition are "pilgrimages to places left out of our memory, journeys of the 25th hour."

8. Headgear with face cage, for ground and pound practice.
9. A pair of thai pads
10. A pair of focus mitts. And learn how to use them.
11. A proper kickshield; and learn how to use it.
12. Chest protector; like the TKD style so can practice going to the body without hurting you partner so much.
I see these guys on the throw-down clips pummeling each other with no headgear or mouth pieces, etc, and think, WTF? You would never see that at any pro gym

Great thread. I have encountered some people who are so "hardcore" that they don't wear equipment, even gloves. Consequently, they get injured and don't spar much.Anyone who has the power to make you believe absurdities has the power to make you commit injustices.

A childs life is worth all the love in the world
Here is a statement from one of my Compassion children's pastor letters: "Here, hungry children are fed, given medical and dental care, rehabilitated from malnutrition, rescued from life and death situations, assisted in their school needs to pursue formal studies, freed from abuses and receive therapeutic counseling. Just recently, we have advocated five of our children with child trafficking case and have been given favor and justice from the government trial court after three years of legal hearings." Thank you for working with these projects to work towards justice and healing for these children.

Student ACS Group Awarded Inter-Chapter Relations GrantPosted Nov. 4, 2013
Congratulations to the Kent State chapter of the Student Affiliates of the American Chemical Society (SAACS), who have been awarded the Inter-Chapter Relations Grant for the 2013-14 academic year by the American Chemical Society!
According to the ACS, the Inter-Chapter Relations Grant is intended to bring student chapters together in the hopes of networking opportunities and the establishment of bonds between nearby chapters. The grant will assist the group in their upcoming poster session this Spring, which will be held in tandem with the Stark State College chapter of the SAACS.
Recently, the SAACS group celebrated National Chemistry Week with two events. The first was a Mole Day Party on campus, which was attended by a number of Kent State students. The group presented some chemistry demos geared toward this year's National Chemistry Week theme: Energy Now and Forever. There was also a trivia competition and a movie night.
The second event the group participated in was held in the Lake Metroparks Environmental Learning Center in Concord, Ohio. The event has been held annually during National Chemistry Week and is intended to grow enthusiasm for chemistry within the local communities and schools. Dr. Ann Abraham from the Ashtabula Campus organized this year's event, which was sponsored by Lubrizol and the ACS Northeast Ohio section. Members of the SAACS demonstrated chemistry experiments to children visiting the facility.

Some of the rank and advancement patches and insignia available for purchase in the Scout Shop are restricted. This means that they cannot be purchased freely by the general public and some evidence of achievement is required for them to be obtained. With the hard work and commitment that go into earning these Scouting achievements, it is important that some control be put on their purchase to protect their value for those that have earned them.
While this can present a small inconvenience to our customers, by understanding the process for purchasing restricted advancement items, you will find they can be obtained without much trouble. The Scout Shop operates under specific guidelines regarding some items and the evidence required for their purchase, as established by the Dan Beard Council.
Restricted items include:
The Advancement Chair for your Pack, Troop, or Crew is responsible for verifying the earned achievement and completing an Advancement Report to purchase these awards. In most cases, the best method for a unit is to complete an Advancement Report as a unit and make these purchases all at once. If an Advancement Report has not been completed and submitted to the Dan Beard Council, a youth member's record of achievement is not updated, and restricted purchases will not be available.
The following are accepted by the Dan Beard Scout Shop as evidence of achievement:
Please note that when submitting a unit Advancement Report, three copies are required -- this includes forms printed from the internet or those printed from a unit's Troopmaster software.
Thank you for helping keep these great achievements a valuable and limited purchase.Last Updated on Tuesday, 06 November 2012 20:45

Cleveland's Historic Karamu House Artistic Director Named Director-In-Residence at African Community TheatrePosted Sep. 27, 2013
With plans for two entertaining and inspirational performances this academic year, the Kent State University African Community Theatre (ACT) recently welcomed its Director-in-Residence, Terrence Spivey, artistic director of the Karamu House, a historic performing arts center in Cleveland, Ohio. Spivey's work seeks to "educate, inspire and entertain diverse audiences in thought-provoking ways," he said.
"My vision for ACT is for it to be a collegiate theatre program to be reckoned with in Northeast Ohio and beyond to the highest standards of professionalism," Spivey said.
At Karamu House, Spivey also currently serves on the board of trustees as 2nd Vice Chair for Community Partnership for Arts and Culture. Founded in 1915, and originally named "Settlement House," Karamu House is the oldest African-American theater in the United States. Many of Langston Hughes's plays were developed and premiered at the theater and many notable actors got their start there, including Bill Cobbs, Minnie Gentry, Robert Guillaume, Dick Latessa and Ron O'Neal.
Spivey is a member of The Cleveland Foundation's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Scholarship Committee and recently became board member for AUDELCO Awards in New York City. He was honored in 2011 with a proclamation by Cleveland Mayor Frank G. Jackson and a resolution by Councilwoman Mamie Mitchell for his contributions to the arts locally, regionally and nationally.
The Fall 2013 production of No Niggers, No Jews, No Dogs written by John Henry Redwood will be directed by Spivey and runs from Nov. 21 – 24 and Dec. 6-8 in Ritchie Hall on the Kent campus. The play is set in Halifax, North Carolina where the Cheeks family, Rawl and his wife, Mattie, and their two daughters, makes its home. The year is 1949, and the title refers to signs commonly posted in the region in that era. The Cheeks are visited by Yaveni, a Jewish scholar from Cleveland, who is researching the effects of prejudice on both blacks and Jews, and by Aunt Cora, a mysterious local black woman who wanders around wrapped in a black garment with a dark secret. Rawl takes off for Alabama to work as a gravedigger. While he is gone, Mattie is raped and after his return, she tells Rawl she's pregnant. What happens next displays the strength and determination one woman was able to hold on to during that time in America.
Upcoming audition dates are Sept. 28 from 12 noon – 3 p.m. and Sept. 30 from 7 – 9:30 p.m. (callbacks included) in Ritchie Hall African Community Theatre, Room 230. Ritchie Hall is located at 225 Terrace Drive on the Kent Campus. For more information about auditions, please contact the Department of Pan-African Studies at 330-672-2300.
Established in 1970, the African Community Theatre brings awareness and appreciation of the experiences of people of African descent as illustrated through theatrical performances. ACT welcomes community participation regardless of gender, sexuality, race, class and/or ethnicity.

'It's really impressive that all of the main mayoral candidates wanted to engage lesbian, gay and bisexual Londoners – something that would have been unthinkable 15 or 20 years ago. What was particularly interesting was that many of the people in the audience were completely undecided about how they were going to vote, so clearly no-one should take London's 350,000 gay voters for granted.'

My experience at Uncle Bob's Self Storage clearly exceeded my expectations. I have rented storage space from you competition and you are truly a cut above. Your employees are extremely professional and attentive. Your office was well organized and your units were clean. Top it all off with a free truck rental and y'all are the best in town.Matthew from Houston, TX

I loved the fact that when the management I had moved my stuff out of stuff they went ahead and closed my account. I thought this was amazing because I moved to a different city and really thought it was going to be a huge hassle but to my surprise, it was already taken care of. Thanks!Erin from Alvin, TX

CRESTVIEW — A new era was ushered in Tuesday evening for Okaloosa County schools.
New Superintendent Mary Beth Jackson took her oath of office alongside new School Board member Dewey Destin. Cathy Thigpen, who won re-election over two challengers, also was sworn in for a fourth term.
Jackson replaces Alexis Tibbetts, who served as superintendent for the last six years. Destin replaced Chuck Kelley after running unopposed for the seat.
Kelley did not seek a third term.
"I realize what a tremendous responsibility this is and the only thing I can promise the people that voted for me is the bottom of every decision I make will be for the welfare of their children," Jackson said. "That will be what we measure everything by."
The ceremony came almost two years after Jackson announced her intention to run for superintendent. She said it had been a long road and that she couldn't be more pleased to finally be on the job.
"We're ready and anxious to go," she said.
About 200 people gathered to welcome Jackson and Destin to their new roles at Shoal River Middle School. A short reception preceded the swearing-in.
The school district opted to hold the ceremony at Shoal River rather than the main office in Fort Walton Beach for several reasons, Jackson said.
Not only did it seem appropriate because she and Thigpen are from the north end of the county, but the school had an area for the reception and a stage for the ceremony.
Jackson, Thigpen and Destin were sworn in by a person of their choice.
Destin said he was looking forward to the challenge. He previously served on the Destin City Council, and said he expects the new role will come with a learning curve.
"I'm going to sit and listen for a while," he said with a smile.
Thigpen said she plans to continue on the path she began 12 years ago.
"For me, it's just the superintendent and the School Board developing a vision, a common vision," she said. "Always keeping in mind who put us here."
Many people at the ceremony said they came out to support Jackson, and were hopeful about the future.
"She's very attuned to the needs of the students and the teachers and the community as a whole," said Champee Kemp, a retired educator.
Several others echoed her sentiment. They said Jackson has what it takes to improve the district.
"I believe in Mary Beth Jackson," said Karen Minks, a kindergarten teacher at Florosa Elementary School. "(And) I think it's time for change."

Best Uses
Purchased this planter to grow herbs this summer. Extremely easy to assemble -light weight and easy to move before filling it.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Nice Idea
- Poor quality design
Best Uses
- Lettuce And Herbs
The glue and small nails were not designed to hold the weight of the dirt. I ended up buying heavy duty galvanized screws to reinforce all the corners and legs at two inch intervals. The container would have never held up as it was designed. I could have bought the wood myself and had a sturdier and cheaper elevated bed. Nice idea but not worth the price. If you do not own your own drill do not bother ordering.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Easy assembly
- It's real wood
- It's expensive
- It's poorly made
Best Uses
- Lettuce
This lettuce bar is shipped with the legs separate from the base. However, the legs were not nailed together as well as it should have been so when you screw that into the base, the legs end up lop-sided. It looks like a Charlie Brown creation. For the amount paid, I expected more. The wood which sits inside the base was bowed and there is not enough drainage to actually grow lettuce, we had to add more ourselves. I recommend you build one yourself so it would be much cheaper with better quality.

My children purchased this for my mother's day gift (upon my request).
I am able to place it right beside the sliding glass door of my kitchen.
I have all my herbs in one convenient place & can pick them without the need to stoop or bend.
Would be especially great for small yards, or poor soil quality.

- Legs Were A Little Rough
Best Uses
- For All Of My Greens
I planted three types of lettuce, spinach and bok choy. They are all growing great so far. After I put it together, I noticed that the legs were very rough and not sanded. I spent about 10 minutes (or less) to sand them. Otherwise, I absolutely love this-it is a wonderful addition to my gardens. I have received numerous compliments for neighbors and friends.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
It is everything that I expected. I purchased the miracle grow seed pods for lettuces and herbs. The table is a perfect fit. I can grow at least 24 plants in it.
The table is also just the right height for no pain planting.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Nice height
- Won't Work Without Change
Best Uses
This product was marketed that all you had to do was put the legs on and you could use it. Not so, it arrived as a pile of lumber. It was supposed to be held together by these little tiny nails that just fall out. They weren't even hammered in evenly. I had to get screws to reassemble it. It says it's cedar but what they don't say is what the bottom is made of. It's just a piece of plywood with a few holes. If you really want a salad table the most important thing is drainage and I still need to create some kind of bottom for this with hardware cloth and screening. Bottom like I can make this thing work but it would have been a whole lot cheaper just to make it myself. I was just trying to avoid work but the way this arrived I have to do more work than if I bought it myself and I paid more too!
I love this table. What a clever idea. I am using it for my herb garden which doesn't need to be deep. I can go out and cut the herbs easily without bending down - and it looks good too.
