In search of the Hardy BoysWritten by Melanie Dusseau | | email@example.com
I like pink flamingos and shag carpeting. Give me a curio-cabinet; I'll fill it with thimbles, state magnets, extinct beer cans, salt spoons, wooden nickels, martini shakers, "I Like Ike" buttons, and vintage Vegas casino ashtrays. A mint condition Avon Derringer Perfume Gun? Yes, please. A statue of John Wayne that doubles as a whiskey bottle someone converted into a candle? Even better. And still, that ultimate prize evades me. I excavate fat stacks of Pat Boone 45s, toss aside headless Barbies and briefly consider how the pop-up die from Trouble might look on my coffee table. All in vain. Hardy Boys lunchbox, which dark corner of the thrift store conspires to hide you from me?
I can still see Frank and Joe's too bright, 1970s airbrushed smiles. How that perfectly coiffed, soft-porn feathered hair made my young heart beat. Track suits and pointy collars. Inside: leftover City Chicken and a thermos of Tang. Early evenings, the Dundee Street Three played kick-the-can and made Princess Leia head coils with stolen pantyhose. Lend me your Bonnie Bell lip-gloss and I'll let you look at the new Tiger Beat. Last one in from ghost-in-the-graveyard has to be the usher at my marriage to the life-sized poster of Shaun Cassidy. Every day of grade school I carried the Hardy Boys' wholesome, mystery-solving, sexy can-do attitude. I imagined myself the South End's Nancy Drew, gazed at my beautiful lunchbox over soggy fries and rectangular pizza. Yes, I carried it even when I didn't pack! Does Joanie love Chachi?
If I could just get my hands on that lunchbox, I might see her again. Poking around the mysteries of her Rustbelt backyard, a grass-stained girl who grew to love compound adjectives and, if pressed, will admit she still finds both Parker and Shaun kind of hunky in the way only nostalgic former celebrity crushes can be. O, kitsch lovers, isn't that the very problem with nostalgia? There are not enough moon boots and art deco lampshades in all the thrift stores of all the world that could transport us to another time. But sometimes, we can be reminded. It could be a Donnie and Marie tambourine or a Charlie's Angels windbreaker that slams us back with the full force of memory, as only pop culture and the scent of campfires can do, to the old neighborhood, to the corner store, to ours lives before they became this. Fear not, junk collectors. There will always be weirdo America, plump in her flower-printed housecoat and so baffled that all her stuff is suddenly such precious goods, she'll usually let them go for a quarter. Now, if you come across that lunchbox meet me at the corner of Airport and Apple, I'll trade you a pack of Bazooka and a whole sheet of stickers.

The tips are very high quality and look great. However they were a little difficult to install far enough on to the tail pipe as there are some very small bends in the tail pipe that prevent the tips from going on far enough. I will most likely cut an inch and a half off of the tail pipe for a better fit.

The Cold Spring City Council has retired the badge number assigned to police officer Tom Decker.
According to the St. Cloud Times the police chief made the request.
Of course retiring a number is one of the greatest signs of respect for an officer.
Decker was murdered on the job last November.
No one has been charged.

Recipe by Niki H
"This is a great appetizer with a delicious sweet and tangy flavor."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

2 (8 ounce) cans
whole water chestnuts, drained
1 teaspoon
garlic powder
1 1/4 cups
soy sauce
24 slices
thick sliced bacon, cut in half
1 (15 ounce) can
pineapple chunks, drained
1 cup
brown sugar
I made this recipe for an '80s themed party (and called them Kevin Bacon-wrapped pineapples!) I was a little nervous that my guests wouldn't like the water chesnuts, but these were gone way before anything else. I wish I had made more, as everyone was asking for them. Fantastic, easy recipe that I will definitely make again!
Pineapple is the ONLY improvement I need for this old standby appetizer. Using pineapple slices instead of chunks makes it easier to wrap. The pineapple adds enough sweetness and these are salty enough with out soy souce.

This recipe is definitely a crowd pleaser. For a good size crowd, I would definitely make a few batches. I did change a couple things. I doubled the number of waterchestnuts and i cut the bacon in quarters. When you buy the 20 oz can of pineapple chunks, you will still have a few left over anyway. The only downfall is they are very time consuming to prepare.
Great recipe. Always goes very quickly. It does take some time to prep, and some people may not like handling raw bacon. But it's well worth it--very good flavor, great finger food. We've taken it to both upscale and informal parties and everyone loves it.
I attempted my own version. Fresh pineapple, cut into chunks, wrapped with a slice of thick bacon, held together with a moistened skewer. I first BBQ'd some, and the fat on the bacon melted away leaving buts of bacon....a disaster. Then I tried the same thing but into my oven at 425' for 15 minutes...same thing the bacon did not cooperate. Is the acidity in the pineapple, affecting the bacon crisping up?
I made a double batch of these for New Year's Eve and they were gone well before midnight. I made the recipe exactly as written, though next time I may change up the marinade with some hoisin sauce or barbeque sauce. Will definitely make again!
We really enjoyed these. A much simpler version of other Rumaki type recipes we've used. I did pre-bake the bacon until almost done and then used it to wrap the water chestnuts and pineapple. This way, it got crispy and everything else stayed fresh.
I did this recipe as a part of the Western Region's Faceless Frenzy July 2012.
Anytime I make these, they don't last very long. No need for changes on this one.

This article breaks down the charges better:
How come the names of the individuals who paid the bribes to get their jobs are not public? More importantly, how come the names of the two individuals who paid for promotions are not public? How many hard working sheriff officers who deserved those promotions didn't get them? Those individuals deserve to be compensated for their loss. What promotions did they get???? Then taxpayers of Middlesex county have the right to know each and every individual involved.
And of course this guy has never displayed questionable behavior in his life. Not even glanced at a scantly clad female.
Are these judges part of the democratic machine in this county? This needs to be determined.
Hopefully they are also looking into the positions of Director and Chief....two top positions that are also appointed. Sgts. and Lts. or Acting Lts. who couldn't pass the State of NJ promotional examinations to move up in rank are suddenly qualified to hold the top positions in the Department???? I guess they passed the Sheriff's qualifications for those positions. Home improvements maybe.
I wonder how much this cost? Seems that the former Sheriff has been doing this for a long time.
I think the AG needs to dig a lot deeper into the problem or it is going to continue.
Stupid are the people who voted in someone who couldn't even make it past the rank of sergeant. Who was given the rank of chief and hasn't been in law enforcement for over 15 years. Maybe you should get a clue about what your talking about. That is the problem, people voting party line, not knowing the truth about who they are voting for. Shameful but they get what they deserve.
I don't know what everyone is crying about. The very people who elected this sheriff are the ones who are allowing this dirty corrupt saga to continue in the sheriff's department. The citizens of Middlesex County are getting what they deserve. Their taxpayer money being flushed down the toilet. A department that has done without an under sheriff for a few years now suddenly needs one? Next time you worry about how you are going to pay your bills, think about election day and how the very person you elected is creating $100k positions that are not necessary. Congratulations!
What is really sad is that this man has a son who should be the one going and enjoying sweet 16 parties. Instead, his sons will probably never truly ever get to enjoy themselves because of the horrible memory that these savages have imprinted in their memory. What kind of parents would invite someone who murdered an innocent man? A man who will never have the chance to celebrate another birthday for his sons, see them graduate, go to college, get married and one day have children. How could the mother of this Sweet 16 honoree condone this? Did she even once think about Mrs. Sinha who is now left alone to raise her children because her husband was murdered by one of her guest? What kind of people are living in this town?
I forgot to add....The actions of these two beasts was definitely a HATE crime.
These predators need to be put right next to the Old Bridge 5. The story is the same. There actions caused the death of an innocent person. They are murderers and most definitely a threat to society. To let them out with little or no bail is irresponsible. They were aware of what they were doing and the damage it could cause. Allowing them to attend classes and remain residents at Rutgers would be putting other students in harms way. They have stolen the hopes and dreams of the Clementi Family for their son, so should theirs be taken away. They should never be allowed to attend a College or University and should be registered as Sex Offenders.
Wow, since this incident, my eyes have been opened to the fact that white people are really hated. All I have heard is how these thugs wont be charged because they are white...news flash....3 are black, one is spanish/white and one is white. I have since read posts on the memorial page and other pages posted by people from the asian community and could not believe that they hate white people so much. Now I wonder when I go to my local convenience store if they even want us patronizing their stores or businesses or if they think we are the filthy white devil and don't want us around. This has been an eye opener. It is sad because the only thing I thought about when hearing of this event was how horrific for this family and what could I do for them. The color of their skin or race was never even a thought.
Do a search on the incident. You will find out who the perps are. Go to the Old Bridge Forum and you will find more information. There are facebook pages, youtube videos and so forth. You will learn that these teens were friends with kids from all races. After all of this you will then know that the perps were 3 black teens and 2 white teens who attended OBHS and were athletes. You will further discover that they had reportedly left a party looking for trouble, attacked a white man in his vehicle who was able to escape and moments later came upon Dr. Sinha and his family who were out for a walk and attacked them. Based on all of this, I absolutely do not believe this was a bias crime. I believe these teens were looking to harm anyone in their path. Regardless, they need to be held accountable and prosecuted to the fullest.
This is a good opportunity for the residents of old bridge to come together and show their support for the Sinha Family and that we do not condone this type of behavior nor do will we tolerate it. I am just hoping that outsiders don't use this sacred vigil for Dr. Sinha and his family as a place to spread more hate. I have seen many posts where people are claiming that this was a racially motivated crime. I absolutely do not believe this given the circumstances. It has been reported that these teens left a party stating that they were going out to cause trouble. They attacked a white man moments prior to coming upon Dr. Sinha and his family. Please, to anyone who is planning on using this tragic incident for any purpose other than supporting the Sinha Family and bringing the Old Bridge Community together as a whole against the teen violence that has shaken our community, find somewhere else. The residents of Old Bridge need this time to focus on helping one of our own families and begin the healing process (if that is ever possible for them) after such a horrific crime. Thank you to the Indo-American Cultural Society at OBHS for giving us this opportunity.
Our other choice is a retired trooper now working for the Department of Education Criminal History Unit recently out on disability running around Middlesex County for Sheriff.
Honorable? Did one of your relatives or yourself get an appointed position, maybe as an Investigator? On second thought, probably not, because that would have cost something and that would not be honorable now would it? Honorable? Did you or one of your relatives get promoted to a high ranking appointed position rather than earn it through promotional testing? On second thought, probably not, because that would have cost something and that would not be honorable now would it? Honorable would be changing the way that department is run. Starting with the elimination of appointed positions. Everyone should have to pass the police hiring exam and go on the list accordingly, and to move up in rank, you must pass the exam all the way up to and including the position of chief. How can you run a department if you can't even pass the promotional test given by the state? These so called Honorable people have been allowed to act above the law and held accountable to no one because people in this county just blindly vote the party line. Which, by the way, happens to be for many years "Democrat". Why is anyone surprised???? The only thing that surprises me is why Christie didn't round this bunch up.
Wake up Middlesex County! Elected Sheriff while in a Coma!!! Enough said.

Don Keough, the former Coca-Cola president who sits on Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway board, is often invited to speak about business success. But he elected to call his book The Ten Commandments for Business Failure. Keough, 82, spoke with USA TODAY corporate management reporter Del Jones about his backdoor approach to accomplishment. Following are excerpts, edited for clarity and space.
Q: Why did you write about how to fail?
A: I've always been afraid of the word success. People, companies and countries can get into trouble when they start to think they're successful. They get arrogant. I was invited to give a keynote address about "How to be a winner" 20 years ago. I said I wasn't comfortable talking about that, but that I'd be happy to talk about how not to be a loser. Ten years ago, Warren Buffett and Herbert Allen said I ought to put it into a book.
Q: You say that one way to fail is to quit taking risks. Given what's happened with the financial markets, fear sometimes seems a healthy response.
A: It's awfully easy to get to 40 and say, "I'm tired of sticking my neck out. I'm going to play it cool." If you look at the history of a lot of companies, you'll see that they often turn down opportunity. Coca-Cola once resisted going international, which now represents 70% of its earnings. Xerox once decided computers were too risky. Of course, if you take outrageous risk, you get outrageous failure. There's always something to be afraid of. It was overpopulation.
Then the killer bees were coming to get you. There's always some bad news out there. There is great concern that China and India are emerging as economic powers. Over the long term, that will help all industrialized countries. It's very easy to be afraid of the future. Don't do it. I'm no economist, but two years from now, the financial crisis will be just a piece of history.
Q: You tell leaders that they must not assume infallibility. Can't that erode the confidence necessary for effective leadership?
A: In corporations, CEO and mistake become a contradiction in terms. If a company's had a bad year, a typical shareholder letter from the chairman will be, "We had a challenging year." That's why I like Warren Buffett's honesty. If you read his annual letters, the first thing he'll point out is mistakes. When New Coke failed, we had two choices. We could tough it out, or say, "We're wrong." I went on television and said, "You were right and we were wrong, and we're bringing back the original Coke." All the anger turned to gratitude, and it worked out perfectly. It was like a Frank Capra script.
Q: Another cause of failure is inflexibility. But the opposite of inflexibility is wishy-washy, right? Mustn't leaders make hard decisions?
A: The first bottle of Coca-Cola was 6.5 ounces. In 1939, Pepsi came out with 12 ounces and a smashing jingle that said 12 ounces was twice as much for a nickel. Coke didn't budge until the mid-1950s. Inflexibility can immobilize you.
Q: You advise leaders not to isolate themselves. You also say that leaders must allow time to think. To think properly, don't you sometimes need to close the door and isolate yourself?

Like other page layout applications, InDesign allows users to control the appearance of every element on a page. It helps format elements with style sheets, which collect formatting attributes for easy replication. But that's where the similarities end. InDesign CS3 One-on-One: Style Sheets demonstrates why InDesign's style sheets are far more powerful than anything found in any other page layout program. Pioneering electronic publisher and author Deke McClelland goes to the heart of InDesign's style sheets, and discusses how they define and guide just about every other program feature. He covers how to format words, paragraphs, whole frames, objects, tables, and even entire stories with a single click. Exercise files accompany the course.
Download Deke's customized keyboard layouts for InDesign Style Sheets from the Exercise Files tab.
Alright gang! We have now established this wonderfully intelligent figure number right here below the top-left figure inside of this document and by this document, I mean in this case, a catch-up document that I am calling Fig Number style.indd found inside of that same 05_nested numbered folder. You can see that it is styled with the Fig Number style here inside the Paragraph Styles palette. Great! But this figure needs to begin in Chapter 6 for one thing so the first number should be 6 and this is actually Figure 6-30 for what it's worth, so we need to advance the numbering to 30.
So how do we do that? Well, first we need to specify a chapter number. So I am going to deselect everything, I am going to switch over to the Pages palette right here, which you can get by going to the Window menu and choosing Pages or pressing the F12 key, very common palette for navigating pages and creating pages and organizing pages inside of InDesign. You may see this little down pointing arrow head at the top of page 198. That is the section marker and it provides you with the quickest route to getting to the Numbering and Section Options dialog box.
You can also go over to the palette menu right there and you can choose this guy down here; Numbering and Section Options, if you want to, just because it's so convenient. I prefer to double click on that down pointing arrow head right there. So go ahead and double click on it. That's going to bring up the dialog box and you want to change chapter number from 1, which is the default setting, to, in our case, 6. If you have a chaptered book or other publication, you'll want to go ahead and update these chapter numbers as well. Typically, you lay out an entire chapter inside of one publication and you keep each chapter inside of a separate publication for this very reason so you can update the chapter numbers and so on.
So I'll click OK and notice right away, look Figure 6-1 now, it's that smart. Isn't that great? Now let's update the number after the hyphen by clicking on this guy, I am not even going to double click inside the paragraph because there is only one paragraph inside this entire story, which is this one unthreaded frame here. I am going to just click on it with the Black Arrow tool, where would I go in this case since I have decided to get fancy and work with the black arrow tool. I can't go to the Control palette so instead, I am going to go ahead and hide my Pages palette.
I'll go to the Paragraph palette and by the way, you can get to the Paragraph palette by choosing the Paragraph command from the Type menu right there or by pressing Ctrl+M, Command+M on the Mac and then I am going to click on the Palette Menu icon and I will choose Bullets and Numbering. I will tell this guy right here, the Mode option I will set it not to continue from the previous number but rather to start at number 30, like so and then I will click OK and that goes ahead and advance that entire text frame; the contents of the entire frame, which is to say just that one paragraph.
Now, in the next exercise, I am going to show you how we can now take this magical text block here, which is actually only semi-magical so far but we are going to take it and we are going to update it to full magical capabilities so that we can automatically number all of the figures inside of a document. Stay tuned.

SQL Server 2012 Analysis Services has introduced a new BISM tabular model and a new formula language, Data Analysis Expressions (DAX). However, for the multi-dimensional model, MDX is still the only query and expression language. For many product developers and report developers, MDX is the preferred language for both the tabular model and multi-dimensional model.
MDX with SSAS 2012 Cookbook is a must-have book for anyone who wants to be proficient in the MDX language and to enhance their business intelligence solutions.
MDX with SSAS 2012 Cookbook is packed with immediately usable, practical solutions. It starts with elementary techniques that lay the foundation for designing advanced MDX calculations and queries. The discussions after each solution will provide you with a solid foundation and best practices. It covers a broad range of real-world topics and solutions and provides you with learning materials to become proficient in the language.
This book will guide you through the hands-on and practical MDX solutions, best practices, and many intricacies that hide within the MDX calculations and queries.
We will start by working with sets, creating time-aware, context-aware calculations, and business analytics solutions, through to the techniques of enhancing the cube design when MDX is not enough. We will then move on to capturing MDX generated by SSAS front-ends and using SSAS stored procedures, and we will explore the whole range of MDX solutions for real-world BI projects.

Soccer defender Torri Allen landed on the NSCAA All-South Region first team.
Dec. 5, 2012
ATHENS, Ga. --- Georgia junior defender Torri Allen picked up another postseason honor this week, named to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Division I Women's All-South Region first team, the organization announced.
Allen's honor comes on the heels of capturing second team All-SEC recognition following the 2012 season. The Stafford, Va., native started all 20 games and logged the second-most minutes among Bulldog field players with 1,811. As an anchor on the Georgia back line, Allen played a key role for a defense that limited opponents to 1.10 goals per game and posted six shutout efforts. She also came away with two defensive saves – a rare stat given to defensive players for directly preventing a goal.
In 2010, Allen was named to the SEC All-Freshman team and was a member of the NSCAA All-South Region third team as a rookie.

A donut shop employee and aspiring comedian is paying tribute to one of the late Mitch Hedburg's most beloved jokes, about receiving a receipt for a donut, on an actual receipt for a donut. Even though his boss initially made him stop adding the joke to receipts, after a Reddit post showing the meta homage to the comedy great went viral, the owner of Stan's Donuts in Chicago brought it back. Mitch would be proud. The original bit, delivered in Hedburg's legendary mellow style, can be heard here ... Discuss
Steve Carell and his wife Nancy Carell (who has appeared in a number of films and television shows herself), are writing, executive producing a directing a new pilot for TBS. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Tribeca is a parody of cop procedurals that follows "an eccentric but brilliant group of people who investigate crime, reveal way too much personal information, and refuse to rest until justice has been served … sort of."

If you're an aspiring comedian, or simply appreciate a well-crafted joke, this video from a New York Times Magazine interview with Jerry Seinfeld is a must-watch. The comedy legend explains how it took him two years to write a brief series of jokes about Pop Tarts, how the joke is formed and why it's funny. Spending two years to write a joke about Pop Tarts may seem kind of insane, but as Seinfeld points out, that's all part of the joke. "It's a long time to spend on something that means absolutely nothing. But that's what I do. That's what people want me to do … is spend a lot of time wastefully, so that I can waste their time" … Discuss
Forbes recently looked at the top 10 highest earning comedians in America, and somewhat surprisingly, two of them are practitioners of the time-honored art of ventriloquism, a form of entertainment that falls just under "prop comedy" on the lameness scale.

Jerry Seinfeld was the year's top earner, brining in $32 million, followed by puppet-wielding America's Got Talent winner Terry Fator, who earned $24 million. Russell Peters, Jeff Dunham (a ventriloquist), Louis C.K., Kevin Hart, Larry the Cable Guy, George Lopez, Daniel Tosh, Gabriel Iglesias and Ron White round out the top 10 … Discuss
Readers of The New York Times didn't find a recent column by comedy writer and Curb Your Enthusiasm star Larry David very funny. In the op-ed "My Son the Terrorist", David writes a hypothetical conversation between a reporter and his own mom in which she defends him in the same manner that the Tsarnaeva brother's mother has defended them. Zubeidat Tsarnaeva insists that her sons were not involved in the Boston Marathon bombings, and they were set up, despite the fact that Dzhokhar Tsarnaeva has confessed that he and his brother are responsible. Obviously, many readers didn't think the joke was in good taste and wrote the newspaper to let them know.
Yesterday, Times editor Margaret Sullivan released this statement, saying, "Larry David's piece misses the mark." She said that the piece didn't work "not only because it was insensitive, but also because it was unfunny." However, the editorial page editor who oversees the section, defended the piece, saying it was a work of sharp satire: "We believed it was acceptable because a) good political humor is always edgy and sometimes difficult to hear … And b) the object of his satire was the mother and the absurd press conference at which she went on a dramatic tirade" … Discuss

MILWAUKEE (AP) - The Milwaukee County Courthouse will be among those bustling with brides and grooms on this unique Wednesday.
At least 27 couples are getting hitched at the courthouse on the 12th day of the 12th month of 2012. There will be no excuses for forgetting their anniversary date.
The county clerk says about 6 couples normally get married at the Milwaukee County Courthouse on a typical Wednesday.
At the Brown County Courthouse, a Wednesday wedding is usual. But clerk Julio Garcia says 5 couples have signed up to tie the knot on 12-12-12.

ELIZABETHTON — The controversy in the Elizabethton City School System between Superintendent Ed Alexander and West Side Elementary Principal Doug Mitchell escalated on Friday afternoon when Alexander sent a letter to the members of the Board of Education in which he said "I now feel I must give more detail/evidence to support my recommendation."
Alexander listed five charges in his letter that he did not address in detail at a April 4 meeting with concerned West Side parents. He said he did not reveal those details at the time because he wanted to shield any innocent individuals, but he now felt he needed to provide the additional information.
Those details included an alleged case of harassment between Mitchell and a West Side teacher that forced her to request a transfer to another school, failure to follow instructions on the proper procedures to rate teachers, attendance problems and shifting responsibilities at staff meetings, inappropriate joking about drugs and his behavior at the April 4 meeting with parents.
Mitchell was reached for a response to Alexander's charges, but said he had not yet seen the letter to board members and would respond today after he had a chance to read the document.
Alexander's first charge was the alleged relationship between Mitchell and the female teacher. Alexander said he became aware of the problem at the beginning of this school year after the teacher complained to the administrative staff.
Alexander said the teacher said it began during the 2009-10 school year when Mitchell initiated conversations with her about his personal and marital problems. Some of the conversations allegedly took place in person at the school and others were by telephone. Alexander said the teacher complained that the conversations became more aggressive and the calls more prolonged, lasting 60 to 90 minutes.
Alexander said the teacher was married and told Mitchell she was not interested in establishing a romantic relationship with him.
Because the behavior continued, Alexander said the teacher requested a transfer from West Side for the 2011-12 school year. After that, she said Mitchell made frequent visits to her new school and continued to call her several times a day. Alexander said the teacher finally complained to her new principal and the administration. That led Assistant Superintendent Richard VanHuss to counsel Mitchell. After the counseling, Mitchell stopped visiting her school and making phone calls to her.
Alexander said there was no question Mitchell's conduct "was inappropriate, unprofessional and a reflection of poor judgment."
Alexander also discussed a meeting he had with Mitchell in which he discussed the principal's "attendance problems and shifting of responsibilities" at staff functions. He told Mitchell he had missed two board meetings, a principal's meeting and the last parent-teacher conference day.
Alexander's third charge was that Mitchell failed to follow VanHuss' instructions to all principals to use the iPad and RANDA Tower to complete all teacher observations and to use model lesson plans. He said Mitchell was the only principal who did not comply. He said when Supervisor John Hutchins tried to reconcile the data at the end of the school year, West Side appeared to have over 400 errors because of Mitchell's noncompliance. He said this caused extra work for Hutchins.
Alexander also complained about a statement Mitchell made at a conference between the parents of a student and the staff. Alexander said that during the meeting, Mitchell said he had back pain and it was a "four-Lortab day." Alexander said "the remark, even if intended to be some sort of joke, was completely out of place." He said it was improper for an educator to make light of drug abuse.
Alexander's final complaints were about Mitchell's actions at the April 4 meeting. He said Mitchell's behavior was "appalling."
Alexander said Mitchell "used" his supporters because he knew the background of Alexander's eight complaints against him while his supporters did not. "It was obvious that through his conduct and comments he intended to further inflame the situation." He said Mitchell's behavior was "simply a further manifestation of the very lack of judgment and sense of propriety that caused me not to recommend him as principal in the first place."

Flight Procedures
Air Combat Maneuvering
To pull out of a spiral, begin 1,500-3,000 ft above the deck, depending on your nose attitude. If the bogey
begins to pull out first, roll your aircraft about your own axis while placing your lift vector behind the bogey
in an attempt to gain the advantage. If the bogey does not pull out early, judge your own successful pullout
to avoid the deck, allowing the bogey to drive himself into the deck. If at any time the bogey overshoots
vertically in the spiral, maintain your offensive advantage and be continuously aware of the deck.
You must be cautious when executing a defensive diving spiral since descent rates in excess of 30,000
fpm may occur. Typically, expect 8,000 plus ft of altitude loss per 360 degrees of turn.
High-g Roll
Another last-ditch maneuver, the high-g roll disrupts the bogeys guns tracking solution while attempting to
force an overshoot. The bogey will have trouble tracking due both to dramatic changes in the three axes
(pitch, yaw, roll) and to the increase in closure. If executed correctly, this maneuver will spit the bogey
outside your turn, resulting in a possible scissors.
Figure 24: HIGH-G ROLL OVER THE TOP
High-g roll maneuvers are extremely range critical. Executing a high-g roll when the bogey is outside
1,500 ft will allow the bogey to position himself for an easy shot. Within 1,500 ft, you must continue to
generate as much closure as possible while maneuvering out-of-plane to avoid getting shot. Determining
what direction to maneuver depends on your airspeed and altitude. For airspeeds above 275 KIAS,
execute a nose-high (over-the-top) roll. For airspeed below 275 KIAS, execute a nose-low (underneath)
roll. However, going underneath will require at least 2,000 ft above the deck.
To execute the high-g roll over the top as in Figure 24, attempt to force an overshoot by increasing back
stick (to buffet, if necessary), reducing power, and extending your speed brakes. Once you have
established an overshoot, apply top rudder while maintaining g to roll the aircraft opposite to the direction
of turn. While inverted, increase your rate of roll by combining back stick, rudder, and aileron to avoid a
nose-low condition. Through 270 degrees of roll, continue to apply top rudder to control your nose, and
check the bogeys position. Recover nose-high into the bogey, retract your speed brakes, and add
maximum power.
An advantage of the high-g roll over the top is that it usually results in a greater overshoot, possibly
allowing you to gain an offensive position by reversing back toward the bogey as he overshoots. A

Wow, where to start with you. Lets go line by line.
1."We already have "sustainable" enegery. It's called the electric grid"
-The electric grid is mostly powered by coal and natural gas, which by definition are non-renewable because they are not being created anymore. Unless the grid is powered by biogas, nuclear, renewables, ect the power sources are not sustainable
2." Only if you believe the Great Lie do you believe is things like fairy tales, unicorns, and a solar panel array power MSU"
-No need to comment on this one
3."Why is greenpeace given the time of day on this campus"
-Maybe the only thoughtful thing in your rant, but judging an institution of over 45,000 based on one fringe student group is like judging all white people based on one trip to a trailer park, which leads to the next sentence.
4." This used to be a great institution, home to some great advances in agriculture especially, now I see it's in line to be the mid-west campus of Berkley"
- Still is a great university, ranked #1 in education, nuclear science, packaging engineering, and very high in other areas. Some consider it an ivy league public school, not as respected as UM but still up there. To compare it to Berkely is actually quite a compliment, as Berkely is the best public university in the country, and probably top 3 in most hard science areas, along with MIT and Stanford, ect.
5. "Too bad, hope any parents paying those hefty tuition demand answers on this energy policy, as in "How much of my hard-earned money are you dumping down this rabbit hole?"
-The plan is to save money, and use the savings on renewable's, which I know you dont believe in, but they do actually work. No words of mine will change your all ready made up mind that technology is inherently liberal and we need to be moving more in the direction of the stone age, but Im sorry to say people like you are becoming the exception, not the norm. The world is changing, and renewable energy is a part of it.
I had him 2 yrs ago, he was a highlight at my time at MSU, great prof and great guy, he will be sorely missed.
This article leads to the obvious question of why the company that created the mess isnt cleaning this up and why the taxpayer is footing the bill. Where is all the right wing outrage? I guess this is a case where better environmental regs back in the day really would have worked, the company would either spend money preventing the spills, or be paying for the cleanup.
It seems funny that people want to get rid of environmental laws because it would "kill jobs", but if you have pollution like the old days before regs, you will be killing people.
I guess its true what they say: THE ECONOMY IS YOUR GOD NOW!
Nothing, he is probably the best gov in the country, people are just really stupid and dont understand economics, accounting or business. People also have a short memory, like you mentioned we had a one state recession and apparently people forgot about that.
I lean left and will probably vote for Obama, and I just have to say that the democrats in this state are worthless. I will not vote for a state level dem until one actually proposes a solution, rather than rip on Snyder who is doing a great job.
So let me get this straight, they want to increase spending for schools, give public pensioners a zero percent income tax rate (public only), increase spending for colleges and universities and other social services. And how to pay for it all? Do they want the MBT back?
You cant pay for this without jobs, and no jobs with out business, and no businesses with the MBT, its not complicated!!!!
Love you Snyder!!!
"the heat flux was reduced by a staggering 167 percent"
Cool topic, but can you reduce heat flux by 167%? I think that is impossible, unless heat was leaving the building
I see someone posted this lower, but I thought Id put it at the top, its pretty much explains this mass migration if your interested.
As an environmentalist I say kill the deer and please dont judge environmental issues on the crazies like birmingham, because he/she does not speak for us all. I wont judge republican ideas based on the crazies who post on Mlive either. Lets just let evidence and reason guide our decisions. In this case, the herd needs to be thinned big time.
PS I hope you NEVER hit a deer on a bike, YIKES!!!
Its not unrealistic, they will have achieved 10% in 7 years, they can get 15% more in 10 more years, especially as the technology keeps getting better.
The most important reason for doing it in my mind is that it is a huge drain on our state to import all of our coal. We should be building methane recovery systems in every landfill, incinerating more trash in safe and clean incinerators, building anaerobic digestors that produce methane from manure and wastewater sludge,and building biomass power plants that run on wood and other agricultural waste, which is abundant in MI. These are all renewable energy sources that are cost effective and dont drain our economy every time we import a train load of coal. Also, I eat a lot of fish I catch and would like less mercury in them over time.
No, they have not decimated either. Ringnecks have been gone for decades because of the change in farming practices, eg "cleaner" farming with less weeds and more of the grain recovered. They are a grassland bird and Michigan is a woodland state, so all the fallow fields necessary for nesting were either converted to agriculture or grew into forest. Rabbits are not decimated, they are still around and will be as long as there is good habitat, eg disturbed sites with low vegetation and fence rows, ect. They get eaten by everything and come back every year because they breed like **ta da** rabbits. If you are not finding any I would find better land to hunt.
People always want this unrealistic dream or land loaded with game and zero predators to compete with. The reality is the land probably wont support as much game as you want, and predators do not "decimate" game as you say because they would then die themselves. They exist at low densities and cover large territories and leave plenty of game for hunters to take.
If you all are so concerned about decreasing game numbers, you should all be talking about urban sprawl and how to stop it, not a bobcat.
Its not the same because he is almost certainly not going to eat it. If he does eat it then your right it is the exact same think, but who eats cats?
How much do you think the road system actually costs per driver? What do you think a fair price is to use this infrastructure? How do you think we should pay for it all?
They are proposing a USER FEE so the more you USE it , the more you PAY. They are also proposing a wholesale tax on so that as the price increases, so does the revenue collected. How stupid was it to have a set amount collected on gas that isn't adjusted for inflation? Materials, labor and equipment all increase with inflation, but you are stuck with the same flat rate per gallon. A dollar in 1993 went alot further than a dollar in 2011.
Everyone hates Snyder, but he is the only politician coming up with real solutions, and yes that sometimes means taking away special privileges for people (tax free pensions and years and years of welfare benefits come to mind)
Everybody in this state wants perfect roads, but no one wants to pay for them. Mi has many more freeze-thaw cycles than most regions, and we allow semis to carry huge loads. That is what ruins our roads. If they proposed reducing the semi loads, you all would say they are killing jobs. If they ask drivers to pay more, you all will say hes raising taxes. If he does nothing, the roads will crumble further and you will bitch nonstop everyday about how our roads suck. Why dont you all propose a solution? I would love to hear a better idea than this. Im sure there are some great ideas to be spread, other than the usual MLive bitching. Well, lets hear them!
Sometimes they pave near rivers so the rain wont wash as much sediment into them, I dont know if this was the case were you were but if it was swampy there may have been a stream nearby.
The point isnt how we should fix the problem, it is if we SHOULD fix the problem. Isle Royal is arguably the most remote place in the lower 48, and as Bernie pointed out below, if the wolves are managed here, then is there any wilderness left? If you manage the wolves there, how is it different than a game farm? The management policy of Isle Royal is to simply let nature take its course, and introducing wolves, AI or killing is obviously not letting nature work. What is more important, that there are wolves on the island or that there is somewhere that really truly is wild? This is a philosophical discussion, not a question of how to save the wolves.
What do you all think?
$17 BILLION taken from this fund and used elsewhere!!!!! Who allowed this???
You've got to be kidding, right?
Correction 1: There are pigs in MI, many have been confirmed killed in the state. They have recently expanded their range here, and the pop will explode if nothing is done about them because they will have almost unlimited food and no predators
Correction 2: Wild pigs do carry disease and it could spread to domestic pigs
Correction 3: drop the E in DNRE
I agree with you the way most meat is produced on an industrial scale is revolting and shameful, but lets deal with the major issue of these pigs and not wait until its too late. Why not put a bounty on them now and pay to have the couple thousand living here killed, rather than deal with millions of animals later.
No, it is not a fossil fuel and does not contribute to global warming. When the grass grows, it takes CO2 out of the atmosphere and incorporates the CO2 into the sugars, cellulose and other organic matter, which is made mostly of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (eg C6 H12 O6). When you burn the grass it is converted to CO2 and released back to in the air, but that CO2 was there in the first place, so you are back where you started. The next growing season the grass will take more CO2 out of the air again, and when you burn it it will go back into the air. That is the carbon cycle.
If you burn fossil fuels, they do add new carbon to the atmosphere because they are buried carbon sources that are no longer in the carbon cycle. Thats why the parts per million of carbon in the air is increasing when we burn fossil fuels, you are digging it up and adding it to the atmosphere by burning it. We are burning fossil fuels about 1000 times faster than they are being accumulated, so we will run out eventually, no question about it.
Google the carbon cycle, its pretty interesting.
Hope I answered your question,
Thanks for asking!
What is sad is that these programs are a drop in the bucket compared to the bigger contributors to the deficit, like 3 wars and an unrealistic social security and medicare system. They are dismantling the few good things this country has going environmentally in the name of the deficit, but it will not affect the deficit. This is scary.
Equally scary is the plan to limit the amount of land the state can own. They want to sell YOUR LAND to a private party, and you know what happens then. You know you wont be able to afford any of the land for sale, it will be sold to some rich prick from the city who will hope to make a profit eventually. NO TRESPASSING signs spring up on YOUR LAND where you once hunted or fished, and subdivisions will follow. no longer will we have large unbroken tracts of land to roam, unless you are rich of coarse. There is nothing wrong with wealthy people owning large tracts of land, but the state land is EVERYONES LAND and we should keep it that way. These extensive tracts of land will be impossible to acquire in 50 years, lets keep the ones we have today for our kids and their kids.
Not even close to true. Wolves in the UP rarely, if ever kill the moose up there unless they are very old or almost dead, they are deer eaters. The moose pop is low because the deer carry a brainworm that doesnt affect them but can be fatal to moose and caribou. MI is also about as far south as moose can live. Dont blame it on the wolves.
I hate people who bitch because they want artificially high numbers of game species and nothing else living in the woods. They kill predators on sight because "they are killing all our game". You dont give a shi* if the whole ecosystem is out of balance, as long as you get your deer and bag of grouse then everything is good in your book. The deer are starving to death because the UP cannot support huge numbers of them, they were never common there. The original big game species before deer were moose and caribou, but they were obviously hunted out. Deer are not adapted to life in the long winters and deep snow, they live in Florida for heavens sakes. Weather kills FAR more deer than wolves do, and you know that is true, so quit blaming wolves for the lack of deer in the UP, its the climate stupid!

~Excellence in Dairy Goats~
Est. 1981
The 2014 show season has been a great one! We finished 9
does and received numerous legs on several others. At
the National Show we had the 1st Place Jr. Get of Sire, 1st
Place Dam and Daughter, 1st Place Best Three Females, and numerous class winners.
We also received Premier LaMancha Exhibitor.
Indiana State Fair was also a highlight of the season.
The does won Grand Champion LaMancha, Grand and Reserve Champion
Oberhasli Senior Doe, 1st Place LaMancha Herd, Grand Champion
Oberhasli Junior Doe, and Premier Exhibitor.
We try to attend several competitive shows a year throughout
Michigan, Indiana and Ohio without over extending our girls .
We also linear appraise almost every year. Because of our
work schedule and other family commitments, our herd must be
kept at a manageable number. We have a nice selection of
milkers and kids to sell each year and offer only a limited
number of bucks. We are not a breeder that will sell a buck
out of just anything. Buck sales are very select and only
made after each kid is evaluated at birth. Prices on our
animals range from $400 - $1,200 depending on who and what you
are interested in. On a few occasions, mature bucks and
finished does are also available at various prices. Please
contact us if you
would like more information on a particular animal or line,
and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
I would like to thank Nicole, Michelle, Hope and Brian for all their help
throughout the season.

Taste of Morocco in Clarendon has closed its doors for good.
It's unclear when exactly the Moroccan restaurant at 3211 Washington Blvd had its last day, but it was still receiving Yelp reviews as recently as Nov. 24.
One of a small handful of Moroccan restaurants in Arlington, the restaurant was somewhat precariously positioned underneath the construction of the Beacon at Clarendon West apartments, formerly called the Waverly at Clarendon Station. That project is expected to be complete by mid-2014.
Taste of Morocco's former next-door neighbor, the Indian restaurant Madhu Ban, has been closed for a couple years. It's other neighbor, O'Sullivan's, remains open and completed an expansion earlier this year.
The D.C. area has lots of water parks that combine cool water and fun.

A light in the hallway outside TV weatherman Rob Williams' bedroom woke him up around 3:30 a.m. June 4, and it took him a few seconds to realize a man he'd known more than a decade was in the house without permission.
Within a half minute or so Williams — a meteorologist at WJHL-TV — had a crossbow bolt sticking from his chest and was trying to keep Gerald Taylor, who he described as his roommate from getting into the bathroom.
Taylor, 53, is charged with attempted first-degree murder, especially aggravated burglary and violation of an order of protection on the TV weatherman.
Williams, whose real name is Robert William Batot, described the attack in a court hearing Tuesday. The charges against Taylor were bound over to a grand jury after General Sessions Judge James Nidiffer listened to the testimony.
According to Williams, he first went into his bathroom after being awakened by Taylor turning on a light.
"That's where I usually keep my cell phone," Williams said. But that night, it wasn't there.
"I went back into the bedroom to get my phone and that's when he shot me with the crossbow."
Williams said he again retreated to his bathroom and tried to hold the door closed with one hand and dial 911 with the other. But with the struggle going on, he couldn't get the emergency number dialed. He also heard a gunshot as he stood in the bathroom but didn't know until later that Taylor had fired into the floor.
He gave up on trying to hold the door closed, he said, and opened the bathroom door. That's when Williams realized Taylor had a gun and the two men struggled over it, he said.
"He bites me a couple of times ... I get frustrated with myself in that situation. I got up and ran outside," Williams testified.
Finally, he was able to call 911, but Taylor began to chase him.
"I keep running," going through neighbor's yards, until police arrived, Williams said.
"I think at one point I lost him and shortly after that the police showed up."
The crossbow bolt was still lodged in Williams' chest, he said, and he was transported to the Johnson City Medical Center to have it removed.
During his direct testimony, Williams described his relationship with Taylor as roommates, but on cross examination Assistant Public Defender Phillip Ratliff pressed further.
"Both names are on the deed" to the house, Ratliff asked.
"Yes," said Williams.
"You were more than roommates?"
"Yes," said Williams.
"In fact, you were in a relationship," Ratliff asked.
"Yes," Williams said.
He testified he'd known Taylor since 1991 and they've lived together at least since 2006 in the home at 11 Ashworth Court, Johnson City, where the attack occurred.
In response to a question from Assistant District Attorney General Michael Rasnick, Williams said the relationship had dissolved.
Williams filed a petition for an order of protection May 29 after he said Taylor threatened to kill them both. That hearing is scheduled for today, but at the time of the attack there was an ex parte order of protection in place. That means Taylor was prohibited from being at the house or anywhere around Williams.
Williams also testified that a laptop the men both used at the house was returned to him by police. Taylor had possession of it prior to the attack, Williams said. When he received the computer from police, he discovered Taylor had searched the Internet for answers to learn if an 80-pound crossbow could kill a person and if a pillow could be used to muffle the sound of a 9mm handgun.
Johnson City police Investigator Michael Barron testified that officers found several letters lying on Taylor's bed that gave instructions about his wish to be cremated and how to contact his ex-wife and children.
Taylor remained jailed on a $121,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in criminal court July 20.

Mercury Theater's "The Christmas Schooner"
Editor's Review
Heartwarming and heartbreaking, the Mercury Theater's annual Christmas Schooner musical brims with all the love, laughter, joy, charity and gratitude of the holiday season. A true Chicago Christmas story harkened from Lake Michigan's murky depths, Christmas Schooner is inspired by the early 20th-century heroic voyages and subsequent sinking of the Rouse Simmons, a ship that sailed 300 miles from Manistique, Michigan, to Chicago delivering Christmas trees to city dwellers.
Set after the Great Chicago Fire, this Jeff Award-nominated musical portrays the sacrifices German immigrants Peter and Alma Stossel and their ship's crew made to transport fir trees across the stormy waters. Minimalist, historically accurate backdrops and an accomplished live orchestra set the stage for the 16-member cast to tell their tale through lively songs, stirring solos, tear-jerking dialogue and comedic one-liners. Theatergoers quickly grow to love this brave, inland seafaring family while learning all about German holiday traditions such as the tannenbaum, St. Nikolas and Knocking Nights.
During intermission, patrons enjoy rich hot cocoa and Bavarian cream-filled donuts in the lobby of the intimate, renovated 1912 theater that anchors the artsy Southport Corridor neighborhood. Ticket prices start at $20.

The collection of fossil annelids at the Natural History Museum is both geologically and geographically diverse. It contains an estimated 14,000 specimens, including type and figured specimens.
Despite the excellent preservation potential of annelid hard parts they are not often collected. Diversity in an assemblage is often low, relating to a single family, the Serpulidae. Consequently, annelids form one of our smaller invertebrate collections.
The value of the collection is enhanced by a small specialist library.
The collection mainly comprises tubes of the Serpulidae (class Polychaeta), although all 6 classes of annelid are represented:
Trace fossils relating to the worms are curated separately.
Lower Palaeozoic to Recent. Each class of annelid worm is represented across its full geological range.
The collection is representative of all continents, including Antarctica and oceanic islands.
The Museum cares for many important collections linked to major characters in the history of palaeontology. Find out some of the highlights containing fossil annelid specimens.
Discover what facilities are available in the Palaeontology Department for research visitors to the fossil annelid collection.
The fossil annelid collection is primarily arranged
The systematic arrangement follows the Treatise on Invertebrate Palaeontology.
There are some separate historic collections and Recent (non-fossil) specimens.
Each drawer has a label which identifies the content to familial, generic and often specific level.
Most of the collection is well provenanced:
Type specimens are indicated by pink spots, figured by green.
The fossil annelid collection is based across 3 locations in London:
