There is another part of this foreclosure process that most people do not know. A house in my neighborhood was being foreclosed on last year. I saw someone taking the siding off the house. I called the police. They came out and talked to the people. Then left. A bit later, I saw the water heater and furnace coming out. I called again. The original officer called me back. He told me that the people doing the removing were authorized by the owner and there was nothing the police could do about it! It seems that in the foreclosure process, the home belongs to the home owner until a certain time has passed. The home owner can do anything that they want to the house /property except burn it down. So many of our damaged homes were damaged by the home owners. They can sell the siding and the metal from the fixtures and then leave an eyesore behind and never be held accountable. So many times when the banks get a property back the damage has already been done. This law should be changed.
This is Buena Vista politics at it's worst. If you have any idea of the history out here, then you know that Chief Booker really has not a clue as to why he was fired. The Board has no idea why he was fired!! They did not know it had happened until it came out in the news! There is a procedure that must be followed on things like this. Ms. Braddock manages this township - she does not "run" it to suit her agenda. There are truly some questions here that must be answered. If any member of the board does not show at the 6:00 PM meeting Monday, then remember voters they have to be re-elected. Do not let the politics out here deprive us of a good, honest police chief. Chief Booker serves us well and has a good force of police personnel that truly care about BV. Also, Ms. Braddock, how do you explain the changes that the "interim"" chief has already put in place - like our best detecive put on 3rd shift patrol and yet has to be in court many days? This makes no sense. Remember BV Citizens, that whole Board is responsible to the People.
Congratulations Mr. Early. You have done a good job here. You have been blamed for many things that truly are not your fault, as you too have "bosses". The best to you in your future, God Bless and much happiness and less stress!!!
Justin, Thank you for the article. Most in BV care about our employees. We wish Mr. Waterman a speedy recovery and our best to his family.
Hawg5 you are so right. I too was at that meeting and we were told that the talks were required by the governor to so we could continue the revenue sharing. What about the separate millages that we pay for our fire and police department? Would this BV Board put it in the coffers to help pay for Bridgeport and the City? If this does happen then our Board and Manager deliberately and knowingly lied to us and they should be recalled and the Manager fired immediately. Mr. Ludos did not impress me one bit. Maybe the City folks think he is OK for them, Please keep him in his own yard.
Why does everyone think that the jail is a free ride? You obviously do not have a clue as to what really happens. There is no doctor on call. You tell someone that you need to see the doc and when and if one comes in maybe you'll get to see them. Also, if you are on meds from your family dr, you do not get them while in jail. Also, you pay to see a doctor, if you get to see one, and if you are prescribed medication, you pay for that too. If you have family who can afford to put a bit of money in an account the medication and dr come out of that. If you have no money, you are billed after you get out. Also, after you get out, you are billed $7 a day for room and board. If you are a trustee and do work at the jail then you are working off your room and board. There is nothing free at the jail. There is no good life behind bars. You can beg for a dr and it does no good. Some of you need to be sure of your facts before you open your mouth!!!
They allowed yours. You do not speak for everyone. We all allowed ideas even if you think they are ignorant.
When Bush came into office, Clinton had left him a balanced budget and a budget surplus. Bush promptly said, "this money belongs to the people". And he gave it away in tax cuts for the wealthy. Now the wealthy say that they do not need this money so it should come back into the budget. It only makes sense to put this money back. Bush should not have spent the rainy day fund. He should have added to it - the budget was balanced!! So now the congress says to put it back would be like raising taxes. If the budget was balanced before, then we should expect our representatives in Congress to do the right thing. Those tax cuts need to be taken back so we can once again be on the road to balancing our budget. Because this has gone on so long, it will take some big cuts all over to put us on the right track. This is not about Republicans or Democrats. It is about common sense. It worked before and it can work again.
Most of you guys do not have a clue what is going on in schools. So many teachers are having sex with students, priests that have molested youth, people being harassed because they are different. The so called "rite of passage" is within the norms of society. What is being dealt with is way beyoud that norm. When the people in charge of protecting our youth become the perpetrators, then something is definitely wrong. This is way beyond finger pointing our way to a solution. These things are life changing events in a child's life. The child sees the people that many times hold power over them and does not feel safe in reporting incidents. This is the same in schools. A child does not feel safe making complaints because the "bully" has friend and the cycle continues. When the child feels there is no hope, the only way that makes often times is leaving the situation- permenantly. Take a look at some of the responses on here and see what the child has to deal with. If a child had to report incidents to some of you, they would not do it because they could not trust you.
Lookingup, I so agree with you. This problem should have been looked at a long time ago. So many blame the "bullied one" for something that they did not deserve. How can we expect kids to understand when the so called adults have such hardened hearts. I serve on a school board and we get too many of the bullies at Student Hearings and we expel them permenantly. Then the bullies friends take over because their buddy is gone for good and then we get them at the board level. Meanwhile, the bullied one is being schooled at home because it is safer for him/her. It seems like this is never ending sometimes.
When people in other countries protest for change it is called "wanting a better life". When people gather in the United States they are called "haters" and "puppets". Interesting.....
When demonstrations like this happen in other countries, it is called "the building of democracy"! When it happens here it is called "a bunch of stupid minions?! Regardless of what we think regarding politics in this country, nothing is working for the average middle class. Compromise is not the order of the day. The folks in Congress have set the stage for this - no compromise, no other way than their way. I would hope that the OWS would come together and make their ideas known. I hate to see the police clashes on TV with American Citizens. But the level of frustration is very high with all the parties in Washington. It is time for all involved to listen to the people and come together for the greater good of all.
Gov. Snyder will soon be here a year. He said changes had to be made in order to create jobs. He has gotten all the changes he wanted - except a bridge, but he'll get that too, eventually. So, where are the jobs? He has based his plan on the trickle down theory. But the only thing that has trickled down so far are more taxes on the less able, cuts in education, less time on unemployment - to name a few. So far no jobs are trickling down from his rich friends. So, now he takes away more from the children. I know that some of you are saying that "the lazy folks are just having more children to get money". They should "man up and feed their kids". But, where are the jobs? I agree with equality, "What will happen to the children?" They are too young to "man up".
saginawdon, you are right on. My husband worked for GM for 42 years and he got about the same as you. When Social Security kicked in then he lost the equal amount from GM pension. We no longer have dental and vision unless we pay for it. I have no problem with that. We also pay a protion for our health care and that is OK too. We are not overly rich but glad for what we have. Yes, we have been affected by the economy but so is everyone else. We all know that times have changed and the old ways are gone for most folks. So we know we are blessed.
Wow, blueteamone, you are really worked up!!! I did not say who should have been voted for, just that even a compromise was not able to be made. This board is to be there for the children, not their friends no matter who they are!!! This is a decision that should have been made by the BV Board. If personal agendas were not the order of the day, a decision could have been reached. I did not point a finger at anyone, but you sure seem to know things that I do not know!!! My opinions are mine and mine alone. I think for myself. I have no loyalties to anyone but the children. I do not know who you are so loyal to but that is certainly your right to express that. However, the name calling and generalities that you assume to be so true only show that water indeed seeks it's own level - no matter how low the standards are.
The biggest problem for the BV Schools has been their politics. For so many years the Buena Vista School Board majority hired only their friends and defended them no matter what. Anyone who did not agree with the majority and spoke out was threatened with recall. Even this board could not make a decision on a candidate for an open position. This decision will be made for them by the ISD! The vote was divided and no compromised could be reached. This is a sad way to save a school district. The definition of insanity is "doing the same thing over and over and expect a different result". In the end, Buena Vista could be annexed or Chartered, if the charter school cap is lifted. I feel for the kids who have had to endure the negative publicity about their School District and know that it has been true! To the present Board of Education - "this may be your last year. Please, as a majority, put the kids first." They are the reason that you are supposed to be there.
I agree, mochamesha. Now is not the time to give opinions and judgements. My thoughts and prayers go out to this family.
If the Saginaw News does not print details then they are accused of sloppy journalism. They are accused of not investigating!! Now they are printing background information that is public knowledge and they are accused of trying the defendant in the paper!! Good Grief. Just shows that no matter what they do, people are not satisfied. None of the information presented in this article is negative. It is all facts. So now you do not even want the facts?
Parishoners on Patrol never said they could control the events on the streets. Some times just the presence of other folks will prevent the crime. At least they are trying something. It beats just hiding in front of a computer and making snide comments.

Legislation Would Allow Overseas Service Members to E-Mail Ballots
Washington Secretary of State Sam Reed is asking the Legislature to make it easier for military service members to vote from overseas.
Reed is pushing bills in the upcoming legislative session that would allow military and other overseas voters to return ballots by fax or e-mail as long as a signed oath is scanned and sent with it.
They can already receive ballots electronically, but state law says that a ballot returned by fax or e-mail can only be counted if the electronic ballot is also printed out, signed, mailed and received before the election is certified. Certification takes 21 days for a general election and 15 for smaller ones. This makes faxing or e-mailing ballots useless and it confuses voters, Reed said.
"This bill would help ensure that our military and overseas voters can send in their ballot in time to be counted," Reed, the state's chief elections officer, said in a press release. "There have been occasions when military personnel from our state who are in transit or are stationed in some remote location in Iraq or Afghanistan can't return their ballot in time to be counted. We need to give all voters a fair opportunity to vote, and this bill helps us accomplish this worthy goal."
Faxed or e-mailed ballots are already counted in 20 states.
"In Kitsap County, there's only been a handful of military ballots that are received too late," said Dolores Gilmore, county elections manager. "But if a person knows it's too late to send it, maybe they just don't bother. This (bill) would make is so that they know if they do return it, it will get to us in a timely manner.
"If they pass that legislation, we would just verify the copy of the signature and go ahead and process it and make a notation that a ballot has been received for that voter (to make sure it's the only one)."
Most of the late ballots are from people who don't have them sent out electronically, Gilmore said. By the time ballots arrive in the regular mail, are filled out and returned, it can be too late.
More than 1,500 Kitsap military voters are out of the state, but most of them are at bases within the country, not overseas. In the 2008 presidential election, hundreds of overseas voters requested e-mailed ballots, Gilmore said, but only a few ask for them in smaller elections.
"For the military voters, it will be a great thing," she said of the legislation.
Lt. Kristi Anderson Navy Region Northwest voting officer, said: "If the Washington proposed law passes, it would make things easier for service members because they would no longer need to mail in the original ballot after faxing/e-mailing it."
Statewide, 67,500 ballots were mailed to military and overseas voters for the 2008 General Election.
The House version of the military/overseas voting proposal, House Bill 2483, will start in the House State Government and Tribal Affairs Committee. It is scheduled for a public hearing on Jan. 12 at 3:30 p.m. The bill's Senate counterpart is SB 6238.

Well obviously to me it sounds like you old horse was over-weight because she had constant access to hay.
My first horse was like that even on pastures with no grain and no hay. She was a pony. The reason I fed her so much hay was too keep her busy through the winter. Believe it or not I do know what Im talking about and it mattered not how much of the hay I fed her because she was cut off from hay for a while because I thought that was making her overweight. No change in 3 weeks so I gave her the hay back.

Amarillo pulls plug on streak
Rayz fall behind early in a home loss to Gorillas
The Amarillo Gorillas, however, needed less than a minute to turn out the lights on the Rayz on Tuesday night.
Amarillo scored three times within a 52-second span during the first period, and that proved to be the decisive sequence in a 6-4 victory over Corpus Christi.
The loss snapped a six-game unbeaten streak for the Rayz (8-7-2, 18 points), who remained one point behind Laredo for first place in the Central Hockey League's Southeast Division.
The defeat was the Rayz' first in regulation since a 4-0 home loss to Memphis on Nov. 11. Corpus Christi had gone 4-0-2 since then, and for the Rayz, seeing their streak end after their worst defensive performance of the season was particularly brutal.
"It was just ugly," defenseman Jay Hardwick said. "I thought we'd been playing real well defensively as a team, and to come out and play like that it's just unacceptable. It's frustrating."
Rayz coach Ken McRae said his team's problems came well before Amarillo's back-breaking flurry of goals.
"It starts with the (beginning of) the first period," McRae said. "Guys have to get themselves better prepared mentally to play. We (were) playing solid hockey on the road, not running around in our own end and doing the things we have to do to stay in games and give ourselves a chance to win.
"Tonight, (it was) just not moving our feet and mentally breaking down in our own end. The last time we did that, it was the same result (a 5-2 home loss to Austin on Nov. 9). It was a joke how some guys played out there tonight, and they're going to have to get better."
Amarillo, which entered the game with the CHL's second-worst road record at 1-6, took control with a stunning barrage of goals late in the first period.
First, Brett Draney scored a power-play goal on a redirection at 14:01, with Austin Sutter and David Silverstone then adding crushing tallies 27 and 25 seconds later, respectively. The horrific sequence ended with McRae pulling goalie Brent Zelenewich.
"It was both, he looked shaky and to try and get this team going again," McRae said of the move. "We're not a good enough team to have three or four passengers in a game. We need everybody going.
"It starts in net and it goes right to the defensemen to the forwards. If we don't have everyone pulling in the right direction, we're going to be in for tough nights. When we play hard and when we play together, we usually have a good result."
The Rayz came back and drew within two goals twice, but could pull no closer.
"We were terrible tonight and still had a chance to win this hockey game, that's the scary thing," McRae said.

Rayz defenseman Geno Parrish missed his second consecutive game on Tuesday and is expected to be out at least four weeks, according to coach Ken McRae.
Parrish was injured during Friday's game at Youngstown. McRae, who is tight-lipped about injuries, wouldn't discuss specifics about Parrish's ailment, only saying that the veteran blueliner had "an upper-body injury."
Parrish was placed on the 14-day injured reserve retroactive to Saturday. In 15 games this season, he has 10 points (2 goals, 8 assists), tops among all Rayz defensemen. Because the Rayz have seven defenders on the roster, the team still has the standard three pairings to rotate on the blue line.
The Rayz did get some good news, as forward Justin Quenneville was back in the lineup. The team's leading scorer sat out Saturday's game at Youngstown with an unspecified injury.
Quenneville entered Tuesday tied with Arizona's Brent Kelly for the Southern Conference lead in points with 22 (9 goals, 13 assists).
With his second-period goal on Tuesday, Blair Stayzer made sure every Rayz player has at least one point. Thirteen of the 16 Corpus Christi skaters have scored at least one goal.

LAKE GEORGE - It's late January, and in prior years, this would mean a group of Lake George Winter Carnival organizers would be huddled at a local tavern, agonizing over thin ice and a lack of volunteers hampering fun for thousands of visitors and residents.
This year, the organizers are all smiles.
Sub-zero temperatures have provided foot-thick ice on Lake George, and about a dozen area residents have come forward to help run the event which has for decades been the top winter attraction in Lake George.
Monday, Winter Carnival Committee Treasurer Kathi Kokolas talked about the event as she stepped away from a group of happy volunteers gathered at Pizza Jerks restaurant to make plans for the four-weekend Carnival.
"With the thick ice, the enthusiastic volunteers and all the new activities, it will definitely be a fun Winter carnival this year," she said. The thick ice and robust group of volunteers is not all that's a departure from prior years.
Long known for hosting a slew of vehicle races, the Winter Carnival is expanding its offerings in 2009 beyond motorized contests - with stronger emphasis on family fun.
This year, spectators will likely delight in dozens of colorful, creative kites flying in the skies above the frozen lake, as the local chapter of the American Kitefliers Association will be convening Sat. Feb. 21 at the Carnival to both fly their airborne marvels and demonstrate kite-making.
Also, a lineup of games for both children and adults are planned - both cooperative and competitive - but always with an emphasis on fun, Kokolas said. Whether it's Frisbee golf, "ladder ball" or turkey bowling, the games offer entertainment for the whole family, she said. High Schoolers from Warrensburg and Queensbury will be manning the games.
New Sled-dog rides will feature Huskies pulling children over ice for a fee, and snowmobile rides will also be offered, Kokolas said.

Christian Louboutin 'So Kate 120mm' in black patent
Other favourites in black leather | red | nude snake | metallic python | and boots
Best of budget versions at here | here | here
Hold your breath while I introduce to you my without a doubt, favourite, sexiest, most beautiful pair of heels. I'm of course talking about my Christian Louboutin 'So Kate' pumps, with whom I share a stormy, feisty, love-hate relationship. These awake many emotions in me because whilst they are in my eyes the perfect shoe (it's the arch of the foot that seals the satisfaction) and they go with absolute everything I own, they are simultaneously somewhat impossible to walk in, even sitting down in these is uncomfortable. However that does not stop us Louboutin possessed women to hunt these down, including yours truly that looked for these over 6 months after hearing 'sold out' from sales assistants all over Europe. Strangely these are not available in France, where I counted on finding these, I ended up picking them up from the Mayfair store after some (yet more) calling around last fall.
I was originally in the hunt for the 'Pigalle', which is another sultry Louboutin classic but the model was changed in late 2013 with updates that included a thicker heel curve, lowered back and a higher vamp - all changes that makes the heel to appear lower and dulls down the shoe. I guess the change was made for added comfort and to differentiate them from the new 'So Kate', which made my choice quite simple. Comfort did not play an important part is this purchase, like Louboutin once said 'my priority is design, beauty and sexiness'. So what makes these so special? It's the hight that makes your foot arch so beautifully, the heel thinner than a cigarette and the single sole that stretches out to a perfect pointed toe… I could talk about these shoes for a decade.
The 'So Kate' was created for fall 2013 and named after Loubs fan Kate Moss. The style now comes in a variety of different colours and finishes, including classics, seasonals and a boot version. My choice of black patent was set in stone as I love the combination if shiny black and the red sole. You've surely spotted these in action, here and in my most liked photos on Instagram, I have yet to find an outfit that these would not complete. They are OK for short wear, preferably for inside events and ideal for not leaving the house at all (you know what I mean…) Don't wear these if you are going to have to walk around outside much because the red sole scratches easily. My pair have experienced a lot in the last 10 months as I believe even the prettiest shoes are meant to be worn, but also because I'm planning to buy another pair in the near future that I'll save for more 'delicate' wear.
Comfort: 1/5
I'm not going lie, my most uncomfortable pair! However after wearing them for 10 minutes or so, you feet become numb (possibly starts dying) so the pain calms down a bit…
Quality: 4/5
The patent leather and finishing is beautiful down to every detail, however, the red sole scratches really easy and starts wearing off if worn outside.
Purchase price: £425 from the Christian Louboutin store in London in September 2014.
The price varies from £425 - £2,195 online, depending on the finish.
Sizing: Runs true to size.
It's often recommended to go down half a size with Louboutins but I bought these in a 37, my usual size and they have stayed perfect without too much stretching.

Maryland's largest public research campuses will share a school of public health, collaborate on new programs in Montgomery County and make joint efforts to convert research to business as part of a strategic alliance approved Thursday by the state university system's governing board.
The alliance is the child of last year's study of a proposed merger between the campuses in Baltimore and College Park. The Board of Regents rejected the concept of a full merger in December, saying the difficulties of combining two complex operations would outweigh the benefits of combined research.
They instead called for targeted alliances that would take advantage of College Park's strengths in the sciences and engineering and Baltimore's strengths in medicine and law. The regents asked the presidents of each campus and Chancellor William E. Kirwan to deliver a specific plan by March 1.
Though the merger debate revived longtime tensions between Baltimore and the Washington suburbs, both presidents said they're eager for a closer relationship between the campuses.

Culliver shows equality isn't here yet

Green Bay Packers wide receiver James Jones (89) catches a pass as San Francisco 49ers cornerback Chris Culliver (29) attempts to intercept during the first quarter of an NFC divisional playoff NFL football game in San Francisco, Saturday, Jan. 12, 2013.
New Orleans --
One step forward. One step backward.
That's the plight of gay rights in professional sports, and it's on display this week at the Super Bowl.
In a news conference, one young man - Ravens linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo - was speaking out for gay rights and against bullying.
In another interview, a different young man - 49ers cornerback Chris Culliver - basically made threats against any gay athlete who might come out.
Here's a transcription of what Culliver told radio shock jock Artie Lange, when asked if there were gay players on the 49ers: "No, ain't got no gay people on the team. They gotta get up out of here if they do. Can't be with that sweet stuff. Nah. Can't be in the locker room, man. Nah."
And then damage control began. The 49ers, who joined the "It Gets Better" campaign against bullying in August, issued a statement Wednesday.
"The San Francisco 49ers reject the comments that were made (Tuesday) and have addressed the matter with Chris," it read. "There is no place for discrimination within our organization at any level. We have and always will proudly support the LGBT community."
But the 49ers apparently are doing a poor job of communicating that within the locker room.
Later in the day, Culliver issued his own apology through the 49ers:
"The derogatory comments I made yesterday were a reflection of thoughts in my head, but they are not how I feel. It has taken me seeing them in print to realize that they are hurtful and ugly. Those discriminating feelings are truly not in my heart. Further, I apologize to those who I have hurt and offended, and I pledge to learn and grow from this experience."
The apology won't prevent his comments from being a huge topic during Thursday's media access.
In the past, Jim Harbaugh has said gay players would be welcome on his team. And this week when the news broke that former 49ers and Raiders tackle Kwame Harris was charged in a court case involving an attack on his boyfriend, the news was greeted with a collective shrug by his former teammates.
But Culliver's comments are the same ignorant stuff that was spouted a decade ago, when then-49ers running back Garrison Hearst said, "I don't want any faggots on my team." It's the same bullying that we've heard too often in professional sports.
An advocacy group for gay athletes called the Last Closet said in a statement that while sports is becoming more inclusive, there is still much to be done.
"Culliver's comments are a perfect example of why there needs to be more discussion amongst the sports hierarchy about how to combat homophobia," the statement read.
But progress is being made; a few players have broken from the groupthink mentality to take a stand. Ayanbadejo has advocated for same-sex marriage since 2009, but he was in the spotlight this season when he campaigned for an initiative to legalize same-sex marriage in Maryland. A Maryland politician wrote a letter to Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti demanding that he take "necessary action" to silence Ayanbadejo. The Ravens supported their player, and the initiative passed.
Ayanbadejo, whose progressive roots can be traced to growing up in Santa Cruz, told Yahoo Sports this week that any part he may have played in the passage of the initiative "was probably my biggest off-field accomplishment."
On Wednesday, Ayanbadejo said he knows the issue is "a little off the beaten path, but it's an issue that affects everybody."
He said that as the product of a biracial family, he's driven by the need for acceptance.
"It's all the same to me," he said. "It's the evolution in our society about acceptance. We don't want kids to be deterred from sports. I believe you're born the way you're born."
Ayanbadejo has tried to avoid the topic and keep the focus on football, but he has an important message in a week devoted mostly to inanity.
"I think we can be difference-makers, trail blazers," he said. "I'm just trying to do the right thing."
Maybe he should start by having a conversation with Chris Culliver. Because it seems that for every step forward taken by a man like Brendon Ayanbadejo, there's another step backward.

Let us hope that then Commissioner Ivins's 2010 budget, strongly endorsed by the mayor, which eliminated 7 police officers while sparing many non-essential employees, is remembered if he runs back this year.
The City can ill afford to subordinate public safety to lesser needs. Once the drug culture takes hold it is nearly impossible to eradicate. We need only look to our sister cities of Troy and Schenectady to see the outcome.
Kudos to the police.

The Lemurs
Hometown: Austin TX
Tags: indie rock, austin tx, sxsw 2008
Coming up at a time when the dance-rock wave was reaching its crest, the Lemurs initially drew comparisons to Bloc Party, The Faint, Franz Ferdinand, and the Killers. But for every synth melody or dance beat employed, the Lemurs find a counterbalance of raw, driving guitar and frenetic rhythm that imbues their music with a crackling atmospheric sheen and anxious intensity. The result is a fast paced, layered sound that owes as much to the pop lushness of My Morning Jacket as to the broader explorations of Television. With the recent addition of What Made Milwaukee Famous singer Michael Kingcaid, The Lemurs are back in the studio recording a full-length set for 2011 release. Listen at Last.fm

Lens rental package includes: Front cap, rear cap, UV filter, and lens hood.
The 16-35mm also has built-in Vibration Reduction (VR) -- not the most useful feature if you're shooting landscapes but if you're going to be handheld in low light you will appreciate it. Like all super-wide-angle lenses, this one shows some barrel distortion on the wide end so keep this in mind when shooting architecture.

Lust. Caution. Lust, Caution. Lust...Caution.
The English name of Ang Lee's 2007 film consists of two words. Taken separately, they stand alone as individual concepts: Lust, a primal, human urge; Caution, an evolved, societal tool. Put them side-by-side, and contrast emerges: primal versus evolved, individual versus society, incongruent. Poke a little hole in the membrane that separates the two, and dynamics shift. Lust surges in the face of Caution. Caution stares right back, coolly, unflinching.
"Take This Waltz" materialized out of a humid summer day in Toronto and made me tremble and fall in love... with who or what I'm not sure; the city yes, and maybe the idea of the in-between.
There is something incredibly delicate and beautiful about the thought of in-between: of that space of the possible, of movement, of choices being sought and yet to be made, of freedom and abandon and all the stuff that dreams are made of, but yet to solidify. It is a place of alchemy. Some call it a moment - a fleeting moment.
It may be surprising for you to learn that in a country with more than one billion people, the fastest growing film industry in the world, and a 10 billion rmb (1.5 billion usd) box office gross in 2010 alone, there is hardly any professional film criticism accessible to its public.When I say hardly any, I mean that there is an absence of professional film critics who work for major, national publications and media outlets, and thus a lack of regular film reviews of new Chinese movies, at least for the mass audiences. Sure, there are some academic and/or bureaucratic film publications that are read by few, and others that are commercially centered whose readership is small and reserved. The majority of active, up-to-date film criticism in China today comes from blogs and websites started by film lovers.
I'm sitting on a plane that is about to take off for Hong Kong. Looking out on the tarmac at Beijing, I can't quite believe my first two weeks here are already over, and Hong Kong International Film Festival is just around the corner.
The past week has been a whirlwind of food, work and discovery, not always in that particular order, but always an interesting combination of sorts.
Let's start with my favorite indulgence while traveling: Food. Fresh food, persevered food, homemade food, street vendors food, gourmet food... you name it, I love it. Gastronomic adventure is, in my opinion, one of the greatest pleasures in life, and I've never shied away from its waters. I don't just dip my toes, I jump in headfirst and splash around like a five year old.

As a person of Chinese descent, I was born and raised on this yellow earth until my early teens. It was my home, my roots, my place.
Then, one day, that place shifted... across the ocean to another continent, to a place called Canada, and along I went. In a strange country where everything was bewilderingly new, where even the light seemed different (less pollution, probably), I had to learn to be who I was all over again. I loved books, and suddenly I couldn't read. I loved writing, and suddenly I couldn't write. Well, not in a way that was understood to be the norm anyway. To a kid, there was no more important thing in the whole, wide world.
Mike Leigh's Another Year (2010) is like a tender, swollen, beating heart that you hold within your palms: the soft flesh expands and contracts with every breath, and through the tiny crevices in between your fingers, life juices flow.
"Life is not always kind, is it?"
Gerri looks at Mary and quietly let those words slip. Mary catches her gaze, briefly. The letters settle over them like a mild fog, unmistakably present and non-disruptive, and the day proceeds on as it does.
Another day. Another year.
Through uncanny realism and probing characters, Leigh's latest film speaks of the pervasive dilemma of our kind: how do we live in this world in the presence of those so different and similar to ourselves at once? How do we make sense of each of our own way of life?
Whenever I saw a plastic bag, a mixed feeling of benevolence and mild annoyance used to bubble up within me. When not neatly stacked by the cashier in a store or filled with stuff, they were usually flapping in the wind making unnecessary noises or worse, trailing in the gutter or sidewalk, being useless. Their life as intended was over, but they seemed oblivious.
These feeling changed after I first read the novel "Never Let Me Go" by Kazuo Ishiguro, which in its almost-casual prose and easy pace, threaded me through the legendary grounds of Hailsham and the damp English countryside with Ruth, Tommy, and Kathy. Along the way I sat beside the girls while they bonded, and stood beside the boys while they yelled. Throughout their lives, I got to know these three people, and they became real to me. By the time the book completed, so had they, but I was not.
• Grace Wang in Toronto, whose four-part video interview with Chung is below her essay.
Lucky life isn't one long string of horrorsand there are moments of peace, and pleasure, as I lie in between the blows.
- Lucky Life by Gerald Stern
Ringing true to the poem the film is inspired by, Lee Isaac Chung's "Lucky Life" avoids the typical horrors of cookie-cutter narratives, and belies itself to moments of peace and pleasure that lull within its memory-shaped form.
"Film is the medium that gives room to our fantasies, most of the time harmless, since they are fantasies. The cinema is often more beautiful than life, if only because we write the screenplay." - Leconte
The Hairdresser's husband (1990) is a film so fantastical, so sensual, so romantic, that you can not help but sigh in ached longing...a longing that, deep down, you know is untouchable, but how good it is to be drenched so thoroughly in it in a French hairdressing salon, on sunny afternoons and stormy nights?
Dreamers. Lovers. However they came to be we do not know, and it does not matter. They are so content together, indeed so happy that they seem immune to the ravishing of life's toil. Passion consumes their lives. The day begins with it, and ends with it.
Why do we go to the movies? I expect the reasons vary. Some people may go to be wowed by an interesting plot, spectacular special effects, tight action sequences. Some may go for an escape, wanting to be absorbed in a world other than their own for a little while. Some may go for the company, for a date, for some bonding time with parents, siblings, friends. Some may go out of boredom, loneliness, or both. Some may go to simply see a good movie, a work of art. The cinema never judges.

Nutrition information posted at McDonald'sWritten by Staff Reports | | firstname.lastname@example.com
Customers at McDonald's will be able to see how many calories are in their Big Macs and other items on restaurant and drive-thru menus starting this month.
"At McDonald's, we recognize customers want to know more about the nutrition content of the food and beverages they order," said McDonald's USA President Jan Fields in a news release. About 15 percent of Americans accurately estimate the number of calories needed for weight maintenance, according to the International Food Information Council Foundation.
This fall, about 750,000 McDonald's employees will participate in a nutrition e-learning program to teach them about the menu and its nutrition offerings. The chain will also offer test options, like more grilled chicken and the McWrap, which starts at 350 calories, in 2013.
McDonald's released its first nutrition progress report Sept. 12. According to the report, McDonald's is committed to including produce and low-fat dairy in its Happy Meals and reducing sodium by 15 percent across its menus, excluding beverages, by 2015. During the summer, the chain introduced a "Favorites Under 400" menu with items like medium fries at 380 calories, Filet-O-Fish at 380 calories and fruit and maple oatmeal at 290 calories.
A Big Mac sandwich is 550 calories; 10 chicken nuggets are 470 calories and a Caesar salad with grilled chicken is 190 calories not including the dressing. More information and the progress report are available at http://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en/food/food_quality/nutrition_choices.html.

UT System regents could name finalist for chancellor Tuesday

McRaven, an alumnus, delivering the commencement keynote address on Saturday, May 17, 2014. McCraven is the ninth commander of the United States Special Operations Command and is best known for having planned and directed the U.S. Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) raid that led to the death of Osama bin Laden.

SAN ANTONIO — The University of Texas System board of regents will talk by phone for a specially called meeting Tuesday and could name a finalist for the chancellor's post, according to an agenda posted Friday afternoon.
The search to replace UT System Chancellor Francisco Cigarroa has focused on two possible finalists: Adm. William H. McRaven, who is a 1973 Roosevelt High School graduate, and Dallas Federal Reserve President and CEO Richard Fisher, according to media reports.
UT System spokeswoman Jenny Lacoste-Caputo did not confirm those rumors, saying, "We have to honor the confidentiality that candidates were promised."
In February, Cigarroa announced his intention to return to the University of Texas Health Science Center to head pediatric transplant surgery once regents name his successor.

By all indications, area anglers will soon be enjoying the earliest 'ice out' in recent memory. Currently, ponds in the Saranac Lake area are on the cusp of opening up, while numerous waters to the south and west have already shed winter's white cap.
Many local ponds are already sporting the telltale 'spider webs' which indicate their ice is soon to go. The shorelines of most ponds are also beginning to open up, which will provide productive angling opportunities around trees, brush, outlets and inlets.
Areas around inlets will provide some of the best early season opportunities especially on waters with smelt populations, as the annual run of the slim, silvery swimmers typically begins soon after the full Sap Moon, which passed on March 30th.
Over the course of my first 20 years of guiding, I rarely provided a fishing trip on the ponds prior to the first weekend in May. In fact, there were several years when the ice cover prevented access to the ponds until Mothers Day weekend.
However, for the past dozen years, I've usually had a boat on the ponds during the month of April, but rarely as early as the season opener.
Boater's Seat Belt Law
Anglers planning to jumpstart the trout season with an early visit to the ponds, should be aware of Section 40, Subdivision 1 of the NYS Navigation Law which requires "each person on board pleasure vessels less than twenty-one feet, including rowboats, canoes, and kayaks must wear a securely fastened United States Coast Guard approved personal flotation device of an appropriate size when such vessel is underway between November first and May first."
Failure to wear a lifejacket is a violation of the Navigation Law and is punishable by a fine of not less than $25 nor more than $100, applicable to either the operator and/or the owner of the vessel.

Haul trucks: Extreme Machines - Mega Trucks, Komatsu 930E
Video Description: Extreme Machines - Mega Trucks.

Off-road dump truck: Haul truck
Off-road dump trucks more closely resemble heavy construction equipment
or engineering vehicles than they do highway dump trucks. They are used
strictly off-road for mining and heavy dirt hauling jobs. The term 'Dump'
Truck is not generally used by the mining industry, or by the manufacturers
that build these machines. The more appropriate US term for this strictly
off road vehicle is, 'Haul' truck and the equivalent European term is
Komatsu 930E The Komatsu 930E is an Ultra Class off-highway hauler built by Komatsu.
It is notable for being one of the largest models of trucks ever manufactured. Before 2005, when BelAZ began production of BELAZ-75600 with 320 tonne (352,600 kg, or 352.6 tons) load, this model was the biggest in capacity.

Gunning for it: Myriam Klink reveals long-kept secret
Lebanese supermodel, singer and TV presenter Myriam Klink revealed a lil' secret from her past.
In a TV interview, the sexy model revealed that she had once shot someone. Say what? She however refused to reveal the name of that poor person. and the mystery remains!
Myriam had also kept under wraps that she once shot her dad's leg by "accident" – we're not too sure about that – when she was playing with his gun as a kid.
But what Klink didn't keep secret was her political views. In 2012 she shot a videoclip for her second song titled "Klink revolution" in which she blatantly criticized the reigning political class of Lebanon.
The video featured Klink in tight, revealing leather clothes holding a machine gun in a cemetery.
She clearly has a thing for guns we think!

WiFi issues anyone else????
ok guys i have a small issue when i try to connect through my home network VIA WiFi my iPhone will connect to the network but i won't get a signal strong enough to view anything on the internet so i'm always useing the edge network at the house when i don't want to anyone else have this problem or know of a solution
I don't have a problem with it at home. We have a townhouse. The router is on the 3rd floor, and I can access wifi throughout the house. We have a D-Link DI-624.
Work is a different issue. We have a semi-open wifi at work. My ability to connect is a function of where I am in the building. I cannot connect in my office, but I can connect sometimes in the conference rooms on the other side of the building.
You might want to see if you're running on a channel by yourself or if other neighbors are using the same one. If they are, you might swich your router's channel to reduce the potential for interference.
Check the Wireless Networking FAQ (link in my signature). It should help you with your range/interference issues.
just a little background on me and my network i have an assoitates degree in network engineering so i know what i''m doing hehe my iBook connects just fine as does my iPhone although my iPhone won't get a singal even though is says its connected to MY network i strongly feel this is an issue with the iPhone its self and not so much my router i can sit 2 feet from my router and not get one bar of a signal to my iPhone
Can you connect to any other WIFI networks? If not, then it's a problem with the phone.
I have no issues with mine. Works awesome via wifi @ home.
I broadcast a wifi signal from my iMac's airport card and I don't have a problem connecting to it. I've connected to unsecure networks at my gf's place as well.
I don't have problems connecting to my home network, but it is pretty dang slow even on 802.11g...
I've also got a weird problem, I have wifi all throughout the house. MacBook gets it anywhere. iPhome gets it upstairs but I get no service up their, and I can't access the internet without edge access. Vice-versa downstairs.

How should I decorate a large white lattice screen that will be behind the brides table? I've bought rolls of lavender/lilac tulle that's 6 inches wide by 25 feet (I'm placing shimmer on some and 'crystals' on others) and fake flowers. Also, the bride would like to incorporate white Christmas lights.
Should I run the tulle and lights in and out of the lattice work, placing flowers occasionally for color? Or do most people drape the tulle across the top and let it fall to the floor at the ends?
I haven't been able to find pictures on the web of lattice screens decorated, so I'd appreciate anyone's opinion who's willing to give it!

Here are the recent answer to this question.
By aud (Guest Post)09/15/2006
Google "wedding backdrops" , and then click on "Images", you should find tons of ideas! Good Luck!
By beth (Guest Post)03/21/2006
Thanks for your suggestion.... I appreciate it, and for the congratulations also. I'm just the maid of honor though :) thats why I get to do the decorating and such.
thanks again
By Michele (Guest Post)03/17/2006
First let me say, congratulations. I have put the lights around the lattice first and then put the tulle over the lights. Kinda puff it up on the corners and then let it fall to the floor. Or you can drap it off the corners and then gather it up ever so much and put the flowers around the gathered part.
I hope this helps and makes sense to you.

Just over half of Floyd County voters went to the polls Tuesday, but they surpassed turnout in 2008 by about 2,000 votes.
Unofficial results show that 15,265 of the county's 29,989 registered voters cast ballots, for a turnout of 50.9 percent.
In 2008, the most high water mark for voter participation, just over 13,000 voters went to the polls.
While the turnout represents a recent high water mark, the county lagged behind the rest of the state. With nearly 90 percent of precincts reporting, Kentucky appeared on track to have around 60 percent voter turnout, just shy of 2008's 62 percent.
Last week, Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes predicted turnout would be between 62 and 64 percent, which would match or surpass 2008's results.
County Clerk Chris Waugh said Tuesday morning that turnout was strong all across the county, with some precincts reporting short waits for voters. Waugh said that when he went to vote at his precinct, the line was so long, he decided to leave and check on other precincts, then return later to cast his ballot.
Another indication of strong turnout, Waugh said, was the number of absentee ballots, which he said was higher than usual at 300 paper ballots. The county board of elections began counting the absentees at 10 a.m.
At the Cliffside precinct, at Big Sandy Area Development District, voters were having to spend at least an hour in line to record their votes, with the line stretching out the door.
There was not much of a line in precinct 1, but election officers there said they had seen a steady stream of voters, with both election machines busy without a break.

Earache and Sore Throat Home Remedies
Earache and sore throat at the same time can really bring discomfort. When a person is infected with sore throat and earache at the same time, it may signify that either the ear or the throat is infected and the infection may spread to another. This may occur because the sore throat and the ears are inter connected through the Eustachian tube. This is the reason why when the throat is infected, the ears may also get affected.
There are several factors, which may affect sore throat and earache. Some of these factors are pollution, swollen glands, microbial infections and allergies.
Symptoms of Earache and Sore Throat
Ear infections in children and adults are the same and may happen when an infection occurs to any interconnecting organs like nose or throat. Some of the signs and symptoms of each ache and sore throat are:
- Lymph nodes are inflamed
- Continuous fever that exceeds 3 days
- Rash and pus are found on tonsils area
- Neck and back are stiff
- Mouth ulcers
- Blood is found in saliva
- May feel discomfort while swallowing that exceeds 3 days
Home Remedies for Earache and Sore Throat
Earache and sore throat can be treated with some home remedies. Some of home remedies that may treat the symptoms and the infection are:
- Drink plenty of fluids especially water
- Gargle with mixture of turmeric and warm water
- Drink paracetamol or ibuprofen
- For strep throat, taking antibiotics may help
- Do not smoke
- Avoid alcoholic drinks
- Do not eat severe cold or hot food
- Taking throat lozenges may sooth the sore throat
- Place a warm towel in the affected ear may reduce the discomfort of ear pain and sore throat.
Remember, your sore throat may result to ear pain but any ear pain caused by other reasons may not result to sore throat.

The Museum of Modern Art will present a 10-film retrospective of the French screenwriter, director, and actor Jacques Tati December 18 through January 2, 2010. "Jacques Tati" features newly struck 35mm prints of his six feature films, including restorations of "M. Hulot's Holiday" (1953), "Mon Oncle" (1958), and "Playtime" (1967), his long-dreamed-of colorized version of "Jour de fête" (1949), "Traffic" (1971), and the rarely screened "Parade" (1974), as well as three short sketch comedies. Complementing these is Claude Autant-Lara's wartime fantasy "Sylvie et le fantôme" (1945), featuring a performance by Tati. The opening night screening of "Playtime" on December 18 will be introduced by authors/theater directors Macha Makeïeff and Jérôme Deschamps, the founders of Les Films de Mon Oncle. [Andy Lauer]

Anderson Ford Shares 15 Trees from the Festival
You are invited December 7, 2011 from 6-8 pm to celebrate the holiday with Anderson Ford in Clinton, Illinois
Earlier this month we were talking with Randy Anderson and learned that over they years they have purchased 19 trees at the Festival of Trees.
This year, they have decided to share the beauty with the community!
"Ann and I can't remember exactly what year we started buying trees but we think it's around 2005. We have purchased a total of 19. Two of those we have given away."
This year, Anderson Ford will have 15 of those trees on display in the dealership.
"We have tried to keep all the themes together. Because it is to amazingly beautiful when we turn out all the lights many of us just stop for 3-5 minutes before we go home to look because it is so spectacular. We have decided this year on Wednesday, December 7th we are going to close at 6, and invite the public to walk thru the dealership and have cookies and hot chocolate for our guests from 6-8."
They will have the trees on display after Thanksgiving through the first of the year.
Here is a link to the pictures from last year and more details on this year. http://www.anderson-ford.com/news/-showroom-of-trees-.htm
Thank you to Anderson Ford for their continued support of The Baby Fold and The Festival of Trees!

More On Tax Planningfrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- Annuities: Variable Annuities Annuities are hot. The tax rules vary with the circumstances. Advisors must be aware of these intricacies when discussing annuities with clients.
- Health Insurance: Health and Medical Savings Accounts A Health Savings Account is a trust created exclusively for the purpose of paying qualified medical expenses of an account beneficiary. Although they are popular, they are not without their pitfalls and the regulations can be complicated. Learn more about how to avoid federal taxation on the accumulation and distributions of HSA.
The Senate Finance Committee approved by a bipartisan voice vote Thursday a bill to renew a set of tax extenders worth $85 billion that have expired or will expire at year-end.
The Expiring Provisions Improvement Reform and Efficiency (EXPIRE) Act, renews more than 50 extenders for two years, and includes the acceptance of a wind-energy production tax credit that originally was omitted from the bill.
Among others renewed were section 179 expensing, bonus depreciation, the research and development tax credit and the deduction for mortgage insurance premiums.
"When I joined the Finance committee nearly a decade ago, I couldn't possibly have imagined chairing Congress' fifteenth time renewing the stop-and-go tax cuts called 'extenders,'" Wyden said during his opening remarks at the markup.
"Many of these extenders are well-intentioned and ought to be permanent. Their stop-and-go nature obviously contributes to the lack of certainty and predictability America needs to create more family-wage jobs. It doesn't have to be this way."
Wyden added that he wanted to be "straightforward on one point — this will be the last tax extenders bill the committee takes up as long as I'm chairman. That's why the bill is called the EXPIRE Act. It is meant to expire."
This spring, Wyden said that he would start holding hearings on "fixing the broken tax code" and "building a new system that works in today's global, digital economy."
On Tuesday, Wyden said the Senate Finance Committee would hold a hearing on how to protect taxpayers from incompetent and fraudulent preparers.
Other issues for the committee to examine include identity theft and taxpayer rights as well as issues surrounding multi-employer pension plans "in order to protect Americans' benefits," he said.

Managing your own infrastructure isn't an easy thing. You have to spend hours, days or weeks planning your specific needs, deploying the right hardware for your use cases (which you also have to pay for), and hiring a team to manage the hardware and operations. Making those types of projections or even "predictions" is kind of like gazing into a crystal ball at times. But what if your infrastructure needs change? Your business is hopefully growing and your infrastructure needs to match your success. Well, as you grow, you have to run through that whole process all over again. You have to plan, deploy and manage; and each of these tasks has a significant cost, not only from a monetary standpoint, but also in terms of project management, human capital and your sanity as a whole.
The main principle behind Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) is to develop a simpler process to address your IT needs and ensure that it takes less time to plan, manage and deploy – saving you time and money in the end. The question isn't, "Can cloud computing save you time or money?" because we all know the answer to that. Yes. Of course it can! The real question is, "How much time and money can you save with cloud computing?"
In order to find that answer, you need to have a clear understanding of the benefits of cloud computing and where the real savings come into play. I go over this in great detail in my white paper, Skydiving Through The Clouds. Below are some of the ways companies benefit from transitioning to cloud based infrastructure.
- Economies of Scale – underutilization and misappropriated hardware become a thing of the past. The cloud enables compute, storage and RAM resources to be more efficiently managed, provisioned and scaled, all within a shared environment.
- Cost Control – knowing exactly what you are using and how much that usage will cost you allows for a much stricter control over expenditures.
- "Disposable IT" – companies have the ability to create, use and destroy infrastructure based on their business needs.
- Burstable Workloads– scaling based on demand allows organizations to efficiently use infrastructure in a timely basis.
- Avoiding Capital Expenditure – with cloud computing, infrastructure becomes an operating expense with no need to amortize hardware costs over time.
