Bank seeks to foreclose on Burt Reynolds' Hobe Sound home | Video
HOBE SOUND — Veteran actor Burt Reynolds, a longtime Hobe Sound resident, is facing a foreclosure lawsuit that seeks to collect about $1.2 million for a mortgage on his nearly 4-acre Indian Hills estate on the Intracoastal Waterway.
A lawsuit filed in Martin County Circuit Court by Merrill Lynch Credit Corp. against Reynolds, BankAtlantic and Great Eastern Mortgage, contends the Emmy Award-winning actor has not made a mortgage payment since Sept. 1, 2010, on the home in the 16000 block of South Federal Highway, Hobe Sound.
"No subsequent payments have been made," noted the lawsuit, filed by attorneys with the Tampa-based Florida Default Law Group P.L. "Plaintiff must be paid $1,193,808 in principal on the mortgage note and mortgage, together with interest from Aug. 1, 2010, and all costs ... and reasonable attorney's fees."
Merrill Lynch is asking a judge to order the home sold to satisfy all debts, and for a receiver to be appointed to the case, according to the suit.
BankAtlantic, according to the complaint, holds a second $750,000 mortgage on the Mediterranean-style home, which currently is valued at $2.4 million, records with the Martin County Property Appraiser's Office show.
It's unclear from court records how much might be owed to co-defendant Great Eastern Mortgage,
Reynolds, 75, could not be reached Monday, and an email sent to his publicist, Erik Kritzer, was not immediately returned.
Records show Reynolds and his former wife Loni Anderson signed papers in May 1994 to obtain a $1.5 million mortgage from Merrill Lynch Credit Corp., for the home that called for the loan to be paid off by 2019.
In 2009, Reynolds listed the 12,500-square-foot house, dubbed "Valhalla," for sale for $8.9 million, he told the Stuart News.
At that time, Reynolds said he planned to sell the house, but noted that the economy was making it a tough time to market the home.
"Every evening when I walk my dog down to the gate on U.S. 1 and back to the house, I think, 'Am I crazy?'" the Oscar-nominated Reynolds told the News. "This is paradise, so why would I want to sell it? Thankfully I don't have to push it until the market gets better."
Records filed by Merrill Lynch attorneys show the Hobe Sound home is not Reynolds' homesteaded residence.
On May 6, a notice of pending foreclosure litigation was sent to the offices of Young & Associates, a small CPA firm in Little Rock, Ark., indicating Reynolds owed more than $1.2 million.
The summons for the lawsuit was also addressed to the accounting firm, records show.
It's unclear how much time Reynolds has been spending lately at his waterfront mansion.
In May, Reynolds traveled to Toronto, according to the News, to begin shooting a new film with country music star LeAnn Rimes. That's the same month the town of Jupiter issued its support for moving the Jupiter-based Burt Reynolds Museum and Burt Reynolds Institute of Film and Theatre to a new site, at the 35.5-acre park named after him.
That plan was approved in June by the Palm Beach County Commission, which voted to lease a parcel of land in Burt Reynolds Park to build the Burt Reynolds Museum and Burt Reynolds Institute for Film and Theatre.

CENTRAL FALLS — Busy working parents received an unwelcome letter recently from the YWCA Greater Rhode Island notifying them that the child care center at 43 Hawes Street is shutting down.
The fact that the YWCA Learning Center's last day is August 26 took many parents by surprise, and prompted several phone calls to The Times. While wishing to remain anonymous, the parents complained about the late notice and expressed frustration about the loss of yet another option for child care, and youngsters in general, in the cash-strapped city.
In the wake of the letter that was sent out on Friday, the YWCA's Board of Directors held an informational meeting for parents on Monday night at the YWCA Learning Center. A photographer for The Times who showed up at the meeting was told that it was private by a board member and was asked to leave after he had taken a few photos.
Johanna Leclair, president of the YWCA's Board of Directors, told The Times on Tuesday that the decision to close the Learning Center was due to the YWCA's "inability to sustain the program." She said that the facility has limited funding and the board had applied for several operational grants, but there was not enough resources to keep the program going. "We have turned over every stone," she said.
Leclair blamed the Learning Center's financial woes on "the whole economic downside in Central Falls," although she conceded that the YWCA of Greater Rhode Island does not receive any funding from the city. She reiterated that the general economic downturn of the city had hurt the funding situation.
Leclair said that at the Monday night meeting, the board explained the situation to parents and provided some options. As to child care, she said the Family YMCA of Pawtucket, located at 20 Summer St., is the only nearby facility that can handle the extra capacity. She said that the Pawtucket YMCA has agreed to accept all of the families from the Learning Center as well as its staff. She estimated that 40 to 50 children are affected by the Learning Center's closure.
"This is a decision that the board has not taken lightly at all," Leclair stated. "I know families are upset, but we have tried to make this as smooth as possible."
Leclair said the YWCA Greater Rhode Island's two other facilities on Broad Street, one a Victorian-style residence that provides transitional housing services for women, and another a carriage house with unspecified use, will remain open. She said the YWCA will continue to provide transitional housing services and community healthcare outreach in partnership with the YWCA Northern Rhode Island, which is located at 514 Blackstone St. in Woonsocket.
"It's unfortunate that we can no longer provide child care, but we're excited about the possibilities with this new partnership for years to come," she said.
Central Falls City Councilman James Diossa, who attended Monday night's meeting, said he thought the board's message to parents about the reason for the closure and the available alternatives was "not very clear."
Diossa said he had been contacted over the weekend by several parents who told him they hadn't expected the Learning Center to close and were upset about what they felt was the short notice. He said he went to the meeting to voice some of the parents' concerns about what they would do to find alternative child care arrangements.
Diossa said that with the current economy, many parents have been forced to take on a second job to make ends meet, and a sudden loss of child care creates a serious problem. "First, our community center is closed and now here's another social service gone as well," said Diossa. "They're closing almost all of the children's programs," he stated.
Diossa added that the YWCA has been in Central Falls for over 100 years and it is the third oldest YWCA in the world. "The YWCA has a significant history in the city and it's sad to see it close. It impacts the kids," he stated. "This was just about the last program we have here for children."

Campaign to solve dog mess problem - by Kate Helyer
DOG-FOULING will be top of the agenda at a special meeting between Ilfracombe Street Reps and representatives from the police, town and district councils next month.
The Reps have been conducting a community survey, The Five P's Campaign - Pin Pointing Pooch Poop Problems.
The focus of the campaign has been that any reported incidents have been marked on a map of the town, to establish the locations of "hotspots".
Reps are meeting up with other agencies on Tuesday, August 2nd, to seek answers to the fouling problem in Ilfracombe and to see how the information they have gathered, can be used effectively.
The Reps will be asking councillors about how dog mess incidents are reported, how long it takes for a response - and which departments are responsible for cleaning up.
They will also be looking for answers about the dog warden's responsibilities, how and when the pavements are cleaned and which streets are cleaned.

Aramine Side Effects Center
Medical Editor: John P. Cunha, DO, FACOEP
Aramine (metaraminol bitartrate) is a sympathomimetic amine used to prevent and treat the acute hypostensive state occurring with spinal anesthesia. It is also indicated as adjunctive treatment of hypotension due to hemorrhage, reactions to medications, surgical complications, and shock associated with brain damage due to trauma or tumor. The brand name of this medication is discontinued, but generic versions may be available. Common side effects include sinus or ventricular tachycardia, or other arrhythmias.
The recommended dose of Aramine is 2 to 10 mg (0.2 to 1mL). Aramine may interact with digitalis, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), or tricyclic antidepressants. Tell your doctor all medications and supplements you use. During pregnancy, Aramine should be used only if prescribed. It is unknown if this drug passes into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breastfeeding.
Our Aramine (metaraminol bitartrate) Side Effects Drug Center provides a comprehensive view of available drug information on the potential side effects when taking this medication.
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
What is Prescribing information?
The FDA package insert formatted in easy-to-find categories for health professionals and clinicians.
Aramine FDA Prescribing Information: Side Effects
(Adverse Reactions)
Sympathomimetic amines, including ARAMINE (metaraminol) , may cause sinus or ventricular tachycardia, or other arrhythmias, especially in patients with myocardial infarction. (See PRECAUTIONS.)
In patients with a history of malaria, these compounds may provoke a relapse.
Abscess formation, tissue necrosis, or sloughing rarely may follow the use of ARAMINE (metaraminol) . In choosing the site of injection, it is important to avoid those areas recognized as not suitable for use of any pressor agent and to discontinue the infusion immediately if infiltration or thrombosis occurs. Although the physician may be forced by the urgent nature of the patient's condition to choose injection sites that are not recognized as suitable, he should, when possible, use the preferred areas of injection. The larger veins of the antecubital fossa or the thigh are preferred to veins in the dorsum of the hand or ankle veins, particularly in patients with peripheral vascular disease, diabetes mellitus, Buerger's disease, or conditions with coexistent hypercoagulability.

Culture Shapers was formed by Houston-area businesses and church leaders following the 1999 Columbine High School shooting. For the past seven years, visual artists from area high schools enter the annual contest to help further their dreams. Culture Shapers Operations Director Shawn Hesketh says cash prizes are given to the winners.
"It's very expensive to pursue the arts. These kids need paint brushes, canvases; they need the actual materials to develop their arts. That's what we feel we are able to do, put the tools in their hands so they can continue."
Others apply the money toward college tuition. That's the case for Josh Franer. He's now in Hollywood doing an internship with Columbia pictures and starting his own production company. Franer says Culture Shapers gave him confidence.
"It also helped me realize well OK I can kind of do film OK. It made me realize that I, not to sound cocky, have a little bit of a talent."
Culture Shapers is expanding into the performing arts as well with a monthly Young Voices of Houston, a monthly vocal competition. Capella Tucker, Houston Public Radio News.

Last week's matchup between Zanzil and Beauty was, unfortunately, not as nail-bitingly close as the Jan'alai and Corborus matchup, but it still had some major turn-out for this mismatched pair. In the end, Zanzil took the win based on the voting, but Beauty and her litter of core hound pups were definitely the fan favorite. Votes, however, are the winner's currency.
The first round of fighting is over and it's time for the next round of matches to begin. The first matchup after the initial bouts is a strange matchup indeed, even stranger than the original two that brought us these two winning contestants. This week, High Priestess Azil, Twilight Hammer priestess extraordinaire, faces off against the mechanical menace Foe Reaper 5000.
Follow along for the details of this week's matchup, as well as discussion on last week's match.
The rules of the ring
- The WoW Insider Ring is considered neutral territory, where both combatants are able to access their usual encounter mechanics and abilities. If you can't visualize it inside the squared circle, visualize it someplace else -- but you must take into consideration all of each bosses' abilities and mechanics.
- Assume that each opponent is intelligent and capable of strategic thinking.
- All of the competitors' abilities, including crowd control and other effects to which bosses are usually immune, work on their opponents (with apologies to considerations of lore on this point).
- Assume that the opponents share similar levels, health pools, and comparative overall damage output.
- Don't get caught up in gameplay mechanics and what actual players might do in each encounter.
- Don't neglect style, story, and scale. Everything is a factor; seeking balance is your goal as a spectator and judge.
The world will be reborn in flames!
There is no one in the game whose voice annoys Mike Sacco more than High Priestess Azil. In fact, if you are coming to BlizzCon this year and hit our reader meetup, you should let Sacco know that the world will be reborn in flames, and that your powers were bestowed upon you by DEATH. WING. Azil is a powerhouse, easily crushing her first opponent in the tournament, Cookie, with ease. Even though her opponent is fearsome, I wouldn't count out this Twilight priestess.
Azil's arsenal includes ...
- Force Grip
- Curse of Blood
- Summon Gravity Well
- Seismic Shard
- She does not get her cultist adds, because that would be cheating.
Foe Reaper 5000 online. All systems nominal.
After defeating Commander Springvale in a decisive victory, Foe Reaper 5000 advances into the next round with all the clanking and whirring his mechanical body can muster. This time around, the Foe Reaper 5000 faces a much different opponent from his last victory, a completely different type of foe ... reaper ... haw haw.
The Foe Reaper's arsenal includes ...
Zanzil took it home with the final vote count, putting down the massive core hound Beauty and her core hound pups. It was a hard-fought match, especially in the comments, where many commenters had very different understandings and interpretations of the fight. Some people thought that Beauty and her pups possessed the instinctual intelligence to use Zanzil's cauldrons appropriately based on his abilities. Personally, I was not so inclined.
Here's how my truncated version of the fight went:
- Beauty and Zanzil enter the arena.
- Zanzil uses his Graveyard Gas, sending Beauty and her pack into a panic.
- Beauty runs around in a panic, knocking over Zanzil's cauldrons, spilling their contents to the floor.
- With no way to combat his abilities, Beauty and her pups easily succumb to Zanzil and his zombie horde.
- Zanzil collects his loot.
elili said what everyone was thinking, short and sweet:
graveyard gas kills runty, game overI don't know in this case if Beauty's enrage helps her that much. Zanzil has some beefy berserkers he can raise to put in front of himself and Beauty, and his Zanzil Fire is a nasty attack.
I'm a fan of Katherine's tale, as Runty not only gets to live, but becomes the most littlest, most ferocious boss ever.
Oh, Zanzil, Zanzil, how will you get yourself out of this mess?Finally, I agree with MattKrotzer:
Runty stays safely out of the arena during the fight, and comes running in when he hears Beauty's death rattle. He sniffs at her corpse, and curls up next to her with great fiery tears forming in his eyes. He was the runt of the litter, and everyone knew it, but he was safe while his mother was around to put the fear into people who threatened him. Now he would have to make his own way in the world, with noone to protect him from marauding adventurers blinded by their own greed.
Zanzil is packing up his cauldrons when he hears a whine. "What's this? Oh Zanzil, zanzil, you've forgotten about one of the pups! Don't worry, little Runty, Zanzil's got big plans for this one!" He reaches into his bag of tricks and carefully lobs a vial at Beauty. "Rise up! Zanzil's elixir gives you life!" As Beauty rises as a zombie, Zanzil straps his cauldrons to her back, and Runty starts peeing himself with joy. The puddle of fire burns a dent into the arena floor - let's see the magic brooms clean that one up! "Come along, little Runty," calls Zanzil, as he leads Beauty to the arena entrance. "You and Zanzil are going to be best of friends. You and your mother will make sure nobody laughs at Zanzil again."
There's a new corehound boss in Zul'Gurub. Zanzil, Beauty, and Runty (he's trying his hardest! He's almost ferocious!) are the new bane of cross-server pugs.
I voted for Zanzil on the strength of the voice acting alone. I didn't want the fight to end!It really does!
The battle begins!
Remember, Two Bosses Enter matchups are all about substance and style, not gameplay, mechanics, and numbers. Don't base your strategies on player tactics, which opponent has been easiest or most difficult for you personally, or the difficulty of each opponent relative to instance progression. Vote for the spirit of the battle as set forth above. Set aside differences in opponents' health pools, game level, and actual damage output. Absolutely no game mechanics nitpicking!
Set aside the world order -- let the WoW Insider Ring determine who's the champion! Your votes determine the outcome in WoW Insider's series of fantasy deathmatches, Two Bosses Enter, One Boss Leaves.

It's not that the Atlanta Falcons haven't been this close before.Heck, they once played in the Super Bowl. And lost. Another time they had the Dallas Cowboys on the ropes in the playoffs, here in our own yard with 10 minutes to play — and let it get away. But never has there been a Falcons organization as solid as this, from the wheelhouse to the clubhouse at Flowery Branch. "Why is it the Falcons never get any national attention?" a fellow asked the other day. At church. "The broadcasters all talk about the Patriots and the Giants, and the Mannings and Brady, but the Falcons and Ryan and Turner hardly ever get mentioned." He could have included Michael Vick, but I didn't choose to give him any more fodder. Yes, the Falcons have the best record in the the NFL, the whole smear, from Boston to San Diego. Just the other day, Gil Brandt, the old warhorse now a sort of unofficial league historian, said, "I think the Falcons are the best team in the National Football Conference. With their home field advantage, I think they'll be in Dallas in February." Dallas, in case you need be reminded, is where the next Super Bowl will be played, in Jerry Jones' new palace. (Actually, it's located in the suburb of Arlington.) Since the Falcons emerged from the morass of Jim Mora and Bobby Petrino — ugh! what a dreadful stretch — a kind of dedicated calm has settled over the premises. It begins with the arrival of Thomas Dimitroff, who brought that dedicated calm to the scene. It was Dimitroff, then, who startled the whole community when he hired a wise, selfless coach with the rather average name of Mike Smith — and there must be 10 million Mike Smiths on the planet. But few of us had ever heard of this Mike Smith, an alumnus of an institution now without a football team, East Tennessee State. Nor had he ever been a head coach before. Now, I've never known just how or where Rich McKay fit into this coronation, or the hand he played in the arrival of Dimitroff. Rich had served at Jacksonville, where Mike Smith had been an assistant coach, but just where he and Dimitroff made connection remains off the record. Nevertheless, it has become a working combination with no combative parts. And there are others who have found peace and happiness through it all, the owner, of course, Arthur Blank, and the genuinely effective Reggie Roberts, who maintains public relations. Front and center, though, is the most prominent personality of them all. Matt Ryan came to town as the third pick in the draft, out of Boston College, where he wisely chose to play out his full eligibility. Ryan grew up in a Main Line suburb of Philadelphia, the third of four children. He is a quarterback of far less glamor than substance. When he became a marital figure, the two of them revealed their engagement in tandem. There's just nothing about Matt Ryan that isn't as solid as gold, and thus, on his steady hand, we stand on this verge of Atlanta's most glamorous moment in the game of football. There, I've said it, and I'm glad. Furman Bisher is one of the deans of American sports writing. The longtime Atlanta sports journalist is a member of the Georgia and Atlanta Sports Halls of Fame and in addition to his newspaper writing has authored multiple books on major figures like Hank Aaron and Arnold Palmer. He writes periodic columns for the Daily Post.

A stage-ready Artwood with a solid engelmann spruce top, rosewood back & sides, and Fishman pickup.
With their full sound, strong bass, and clarity in chording and soloing, dreadnoughts have become the most popular acoustic body style. The AW380ECENT dreadnought is a member of the Artwood Traditional Acoustic-Electric series. These performance-level guitars share many features and are distinguished by their body style and woods used.
If you need a traditional guitar that can easily switch from acoustic to electric, you've found it here in the Ibanez AW380ECENT Artwood Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar. With a Fishman Sonicore Pickup and Ibanez SST Shape Shifter Preamp with Onboard Tuner, players will notice how smooth the transition is from acoustic to electric and back, and it will make playing live gigs so much easier.
The rich, clear tone of the AW380ECENT comes from its solid Engelmann Spruce top and Rosewood back and sides. The large Dreadnought body with cutaway provides musicians a big projection. Other refinements include a bone saddle on a distinctively contoured bridge and a headstock where tradition and modern style co-exist.
This Ibanez benefits from sophisticated electronics using a Fishman Sonicore pickup and an Ibanez AEQ-SST Shape Shifter preamp with onboard tuner to faithfully reproduce exquisite acoustic tones at any volume level. The AW380ECENT also features both 1/4" and XLR outputs for increased versatility.

I've used a lot of acoustic guitars in my 25 years
Of playing guitar. You can't go wrong with ibanez art wood.
Playability and sound is phenomenal! I have an artwood acoustic.
So I just had to have the acoustic/electric version.
I was a little skeptical at first, but when I opened it up and strummed a few riffs, I knew I had made a great choice. I recommend it highly.

Talk to an Avvo-vetted lawyer on the phone now. 15-min call for just $39.
I was born on May 8, 1959. Before attending law school, I ran ski lifts, picked apples, painted houses, taught skiing, and worked as an adolescent and family counselor for a community action agency. I eventually went on to study law, graduating from Vermont Law School, summa cum laude (1st in my class) in 1990.
After law school, I served as a law clerk at the Vermont Supreme Court. I entered private practice with a Burlington law firm in 1991, concentrating in professional malpractice cases, personal injury, and general litigation. In 1998, I decided to open my own solo practice, 100% dedicated to helping injured Vermonters, visitors, and their families in serious personal injury and wrongful death cases.
I am board-certified as a Civil Trial Specialist by the the National Board of Trial Advocacy.
In 2006, I was honored to be among 50 trial attorneys from around the United States selected to attend the intensive 22-day Trial Lawyers College, in Wyoming, founded by the legendary trial lawyer, Gerry Spence. In 2010, I served on the Faculty of the College.
Martindale-Hubbell, the oldest and perhaps most highly-recognized independent attorney review and rating service in the United States, has awarded me its highest rating, "AV - Preeminent."
From 2007 through 2014, I have been chosen by my peers to be included as a "Super Lawyer" in New England Super Lawyers Magazine.
From 2010 to 2011, I served as President of the Vermont Association for Justice (VTAJ). I am also a proud member of the American Association for Justice (AAJ), and serve on the Board of Governors of the Association.
Many lawyers call themselves "litigators." But to a large degree, "litigation" consists of throwing lots of paper at the other side, but very rarely if ever taking a case to trial. I am proud to be a trial lawyer. I believe that when an attorney is ready and able to take a case to trial, the client is much more likely to get justice.
Some personal injury lawyers have high-volume practices, advertising heavily on high-cost radio and TV ad campaigns. Some of these "settlement mills" take on hundreds of new cases each year, hoping to quickly settle as many cases as possible. I do not operate that way. I run a small, client-centered law practice, focusing on the individualized needs of a small number of clients. I advertise minimally, and take on only a few new cases each year. I limit the cases I handle to those involving serious, life-changing personal injuries, such as permanent back and neck injuries, fractures, burns, paralysis, disfigurement, or death.
By keeping my overhead and case-volume low, I am able to handle each case personally from start to finish. I never pawn my clients off on a junior associate or paralegal. I work closely with each of my clients, to learn about their lives and to discover and tell the story behind their cases.
For more information visit my web-site: www.greenmountainlaw.com. To discuss your case at no charge, please call me, toll free, at 888-860-9994.

Susan Kuchinskas | March 3, 2014 | Comments
Hollywood's biggest night, the Academy Awards, shows how paid and earned media work better together.
So, TV crashed Twitter last night. Does that put the debate about the relative power of paid versus social media to rest?
OK, not really. It's more of an illustration of how entertainment and paid media are both becoming entwined.
Academy Awards broadcast host Ellen DeGeneres' selfie with 12 of Hollywood's A-list celebrities became the most-tweeted photo ever - and briefly took down the #Oscars Twitter hashtag, not Twitter itself - by harnessing the old-fashioned power of destination TV. @TheEllenShow posted the tweet during the show, quickly garnering more than 1,300,000 retweets in just minutes (it is now almost to 3 million retweets).
Who won in this scenario?
In part thanks to the record-breaking tweet, Samsung was the big brand winner overall, according to Kontera, a big-data content marketing platform. Kontera looked at online brand consumption and social media during Oscars 2014 and saw more than 40,000 social mentions throughout the event. Showing the power of paid media, most consumption and social conversation peaks happened during its commercials.
The peak of peaks was during the selfie itself, when consumption of the Samsung brand multiplied by 2,700 percent and Samsung mentions topped 900 per minute. It's notable that no mention was made of Samsung during the photo opportunity, but the camera was the closest thing to the media's cameras.
A Samsung spokesperson said Ellen's Oscar selfie moment was not part of the paid deal. In an email, she said, "While we were a sponsor of the Oscars and had an integration with ABC, we were delighted to see Ellen organically incorporate the device into the selfie moment that had everyone talking. A great surprise for everyone, she captured something that nobody expected."
In honor of that, Samsung will donate $1.5 million to each of Ellen's charities, St. Jude's and The Humane Society.
Kontera's analysis parsed Oscar-related brand consumption separately from each brand's typical online and social media consumption to isolate the Oscar effect. It found that overall, Samsung had the strongest performance.
But it could have done much better, according to Chris Bowler, group vice president of social media for Razorfish, who kept a close eye on the Twitterverse and other social media last night. "Arguably, we could have seen more here from a Twitter marketing perspective," he says. For example, Ellen could have also tweeted a specific mention.
Bowler also suggests that the selfie itself could have been lightly branded, for example with a watermark saying something like, "Photo taken on a Samsung Galaxy Note 3." Samsung could have promoted its own branded hashtag - and why weren't Samsung's own Twitter handles more active? "I saw only one retweet of someone else's post from Samsung USA @Samsungtweets and I didn't see anything from @SamsungMobile. It seems like Samsung could have activated their social channels even more and it was a missed opportunity. This overall speaks to the lack of readiness by some brands to execute real-time marketing across the board," he says.
And then there were those tweets Ellen did from backstage - with her personal iPhone. Ouch!
According to Mauricio Aguayo, director of digital strategy at Click 3X, Samsung probably could have asked Ellen to use one of its phones even backstage during the event. "It could have been part of the contract. Any brand can have that conversation and agree on the terms of how to promote themselves and prevent that from happening - if they knew that Twitter posts the device a tweet comes from."
Says Rachel Caggiano, Ogilvy's North American head of content, "You want sponsorships to come off as flawless, seamless, and really authentic. This seemed a little forced." Ideally, she says, it should have seemed like Ellen really loves the Samsung phone, giving consumers the idea, "I'm going to buy it because I love Ellen." Caggiano adds, "If the sponsorship doesn't come through like the celebrity is truly endorsing [the product], I don't know how well it works."
And then there's Snickers' suggestion that attendees who didn't get in on the pizza should eat a candy bar.
For those who didn't get pizza, we have an idea #Oscars pic.twitter.com/iijAR6T9i7
— SNICKERS® (@SNICKERS) March 2, 2014
At every live event, we're starting to see brands trying to force it a little too much. "Everyone is looking for their 'Oreo moment,'" Caggiano says. When Oreo live-tweeted during the Super Bowl, "it was novel and surprising and right on time. Now, there's an over-indulgence."
Aguayo contrasts Snickers with Arby's, which had good interplay with Pharrell over his hat. The fast-food company had good-naturedly ribbed the singer about the weird hat he wore to the Grammys, which looks like the Arby's logo. @Arbys tweeted, "'Hey @Pharrell, can we have our hat back?" When Pharrell auctioned it for charity on eBay, Arby's bought it.
"That had thousands of engagements," he notes. "Because the engagement between Arby's and Pharrell was so genuine, and it connected with charity, it's almost like a happy ending to the story."
While @Snickers' suggestion itself didn't get much love, the brand did, thanks to its TV spot.
Anne Hathaway needs a snickers. #Oscars

Maybe the real winner in all this is Twitter, Caggiano says. Its own earned media keeps on coming - including this story.

Fame doesn't…
The lawyers for the man accused of shooting and killing a 17 year old in a fight over loud music - want more time to prepare for his trial. Tuesday we will likely learn whether or not they'll get it.
The lawyers for the man accused of shooting and killing a 17 year old in a fight over loud music - want more time to prepare for his trial. Tomorrow we will likely learn whether or not they'll get it. Channel 4's Scott Johnson has a look ahead at the latest on Michael Dunn's trial. 3 Dunn's lawyers say they're not ready...but i talked to a legal expert , and he says everyone else has put in a lot of work to make sure duval county is ready to try michael dunn... so likely the defense will have to be ready. 3 00-0619-25Michael Dunn's attorney is pushing for more time before this goes to trial...telling Judge Russell Healey he's simply overwhelmed by all the media requests for information on this trial... despite that local attorney Gene Nichols doesn't expect the judge to view that as a reason to push this back.GENE NICHOLS 17:14:46 - this case has been ready for trial for months. Not only is the defendant and lawyer ready, but the nation is ready.The sheriff's office has been putting out notices on where to park. They're putting out tents in the courtyard. The nation is going to be there to cover this trial.Nichols says this will be the first major test for the relatively new courthouse with handling a major trial with a national focus .... that focus being on michael dunn who's charged with murder for allegedly gunning down a black teenager at a southside gas station after an argument over loud music.Prosecutors do not want a delay... this is a statement released late last week "The State Attorney's Office will not try this case in the media and will comment further in the appropriate venue -- the courtroom," 17:15:10 - unless the defendatn's trial rights are being jeopardized by having the trial in the next couple weeks, judge healy is not going to delay. Unless there's a death in someone's immediate family judge healy is not going to continue this trial. then... unless the judge allows for a delay the trial will begin with jury selection on february third. 17:16:39 - I would fully expect it will take days or weeks to pick this jury. 'do you think they'll push for change of venue?' I don't think they will push for change of venue. We would've already seen that by now. I fully expect it to be tried in duval county. Even if they pushed for it now I expect it would get denied. 3 and the trial has caused for special procedures to be put in place for all the media to be allowed in the courtroom.... all the work that went into that is one reason why nichols doesn't think the judge will delay this any longer. Scott, what about the public? Can anyone sit in on the trial?

We have over 12,000 students, from over 100 countries, within one of the safest campuses in the UK
97% of Lancaster students go into work or further study within six months of graduating
Press clipping: Research
On 21st November the Sociology Department, together with the Lancaster China Management Centre and the College of Public Administration, Zhejiang University, hosted the 'China-UK Workshop on Disruptive Low Carbon Innovation in China' in Hangzhou, China. Sponsored by the UK's Department for Business, Innovation and Skills via the British Consulate in Shanghai, the workshop brought together innovators, business people, policy-makers and scholars to discuss the opportunities for so-called 'disruptive' low carbon innovation in China. 'Disruptive' innovation involves production of 'cheaper, easier-to-use alternatives… often produced by non-traditional players that target previously ignored customers' and/or use in novel contexts, but which have the medium-term potential for radical restructuring of economic sectors. As a report from the UK's leading innovation think-tank, NESTA, has noted (see http://www.nesta.org.uk/the-disrupters/), this capacity for profound socioeconomic change is precisely what is needed for an effective and timely low-carbon shift.
Along with leading policymakers from Zhejiang Province - the 'California' of China, both in terms of its economic prosperity and its innovative and entrepreneurial reputation - keynote speakers included Rebecca Willis, Vice Chair of the UK's Sustainable Development Commission and lead author of the NESTA report, and Ping ZHENG, Programme Officer for Climate Change & Energy at WWF China.
The workshop was organized by Dr David Tyfield of the Centre for Mobilities Research (CeMoRe) at Lancaster, as part of the ongoing AIM/ESRC project on 'UK-China Low Carbon Networks' (that also includes Prof John Urry and Prof Brian Wynne) and Prof CHEN Jin and Dr JIN Jun of Zhejiang University. The event will be followed by a follow-up report for NESTA focusing on disruptive low carbon innovation in China, together with a special issue of the Journal of Knowledge-based Innovation in China.
For more information, please consult the workshop website (www.lums.lancs.ac.uk/lowcarbonchina) and the AIM/ESRC project website (http://www.lancs.ac.uk/fass/faculty/activities/606/) or contact Dr Tyfield at email@example.com

How do i set a recurring task until a certain date?
Asked on May 17, 2013 - 16:55 UTC
I want to be reminded to pay a bil every month, but only until November 2013. Is there a way to set a recurring task until a certain date?
All responses
Replied on May 17, 2013 - 17:25 UTC

Our approach:
Our Approach
Whether you have already chosen a course of action or need guidance in making a decision, clinicians at the Fertility Center will support you in your journey, providing information and tailoring your treatment to best suit your needs.
As you explore donation or surrogacy options through our program, your primary fertility physician at Mass General will continue to help manage your treatments. As a result, each patient enjoys the comfort and convenience that comes with receiving all care in one location.
What to Expect: Sperm Donation
The Fertility Center is not involved in the process of collecting sperm for donation. Instead, we leverage our relationships with a select number of sperm banks.
We carefully screen all sperm donors to ensure patient safety. If the donor is anonymous, testing takes place at the sperm bank. If the donor is known, he undergoes testing at the sperm bank or Mass General. Once the patient is inseminated—or her eggs are fertilized and the resulting embryo(s) are transferred—she continues to receive most of her care from her primary fertility physician at Mass General.
What to Expect: Egg Donation
Women pursuing egg donation may select a known or anonymous donor. In the latter case, we can lend our insight to help the patient evaluate various egg donor agencies and screen potential donors.
Whether the egg donor is known or anonymous, a Fertility Center physician tests her in adherence with strict FDA requirements. The process of egg retrieval involves a minor surgical procedure for the donor. We then perform in vitro fertilization using the recipient's partner's sperm (or donor sperm, if necessary) before transferring one or two viable embryos into the recipient's uterus.
Egg donation is a complex process with numerous moving parts. We have an egg donor coordinator on staff to handle the countless logistical aspects, such as interacting with agencies, educating the couple on potential costs, making travel arrangements for the donor and other tasks.
What to Expect: Surrogacy
Surrogacy entails many of the same steps as egg donation. One important distinction: With surrogacy, we protect the gestational carrier's health by screening the couple according to the same FDA requirements that apply to egg donation.
Success With Safety in Mind
At Mass General, we have superb donor-egg success rates. For details on these and other assisted reproductive technologies (ART) rates, please visit the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Our commitment to patient safety is evident throughout the process. We avoid overstimulating egg donors with excessive medication, which could help us harvest more eggs but also could lead to a host of illnesses. Our high level of technical skill gives us the advantage of using just a few eggs. And our preferred practice for single-embryo transfer protects the recipient from the risk of multiple births.
We also understand some couples' desire to have enough embryos to freeze and use at a later time. The line between getting enough eggs and making the egg donor very sick often is quite thin. However, advances in medication protocols and techniques in the embryology laboratory help us to walk that line carefully. Learn more about our cryopreservation program.

i'm shocked that the cretive doc did not come up with something a bit more creative than he tripped. coach contrarian would have said tonight its clear who it is to blame. some could point the finger at rondo but i say absolutely not.. if anyone should be suspended it should be GRAVITY. i would give it 2 games and spare rondo!
then again, for putting the refs and league in such a position in the first place, i blame rr's depravity. this dude has a problem with authority and controlling his impulses. can you imagine rr stepping up as pp did tonight when the big 3 are long gone? i say no. he may not be in the position for he's the one most likely to do something moronic to not be there in the first place. i would never build around him as the clear man. i would always want him being the man behind the man. his personality and impulses are right up there with metta world war, stoudemire (immaturely hurting his hand), bynum and others of that immature ilk. he's more likely to be a punkk in those moments when he's losing and things are going away from him than to stand up as a man. he would be blaming everyone around him rather than looking in the mirror.

Foodie Friday: Hot Fudge Oreo Cupcakes for JT Birthday!!
At Muse Me Style we are celebrating the one and only Justin Timberlake! Mr. Sexy Back just turned 33 years young today! We want to make a special treat for him! Here is the best recipe for the Hot Fudge Oreo Cupcakes!
|1 lb bag of oreos
|cup butter – melted
|Ice Cream – Favorite flavor
|Tub of cool whip
|cup chocolate chips
|cube butter
|tsp vanilla
|can sweetened condensed milk
Need a cup cake pan, lined with cup cake liners Smash oreos in a bag into chunks and crumbs – put into a bowl Add the melted butter and mix up Press crumbs firmly in bottom of cup. I used about 2 tablespoons per cup. Reserve at least 1 cup of the crumbs for later. Take an ice cream scoop and plop a scoop into each cup. I used Vanilla, but you can use any flavor Ice Cream you like. Use some of those reserved crumbs now – sprinkle over the tops Place about 2 tablespoons cool whip on top of the oreo ice cream mixture Now place that cupcake pan in your freezer. Topping: Mix together over low heat in a saucepan, until melted and combined (all topping ingredients) Once the Hot Fudge is all creamy and melted together. Pour about 1/2 cup of it into a little baggie. Let that bag of Hot Fudge cool for about 10 minutes. You don't want it Hot! *I pour mine right into the baggie, then place it in the fridge for 10 minutes. Once your Hot Fudge has cooled: GO GRAB YOUR FROZEN TREATS FROM THE FREEZER. Grab a little pair of scissors Snip a small corner of the fudge bag for drizzling. Drizzle that yummy Hot Fudge over the top of the Frozen Cream. Use as much as you like, but don't spill it over the sides of the paper cups. They will be messy to remove later if you do. Place the pan uncovered in the Freezer for several hours. When you are ready to serve them, simply . . . Let soften ever so slightly, Remove the paper liners and eat!

Happy days for skipper Keogh
Posted: December 01, 2012|
RICHARD Keogh reckons the Derby County side he is leading is the happiest he has played in.
The 26-year-old centre-half has proved a more than adequate replacement for Jason Shackell, who left Pride Park in the summer.
Since his £1.2 million move from Coventry City, captain Keogh has impressed fans with his commitment, drive and leadership on the pitch.
"It's the best dressing room I've been involved in," he said ahead of this afternoon's clash at Leicester City, kick-off 5.20pm. "You can sense it on the pitch.
"We do a lot of stuff together away from football and it helps out on the pitch.
"You know whatever happens, the lad next to you has got your back.
"There's no flouncing or whinging if you get left out either."
Keogh knows Leicester will be a tough proposition for Derby, who have not won at the home of their rivals for 10 years.
They got hammered 4-0 at the King Power Stadium last season and the Foxes have strengthened further since then.
"Everyone has seen the investment they've had," said the Rams skipper.
"They're a fantastic team and like Cardiff are very well-organised.
"They're a good side and will be looking to get three points, but we go there full of confidence.
"We're going there coming off the back of a couple of good performances."
Derby's away form needs to improve if they are to crack the top six.
Keogh thinks that being positive is the key to getting better on the road.
"Only in a couple of away performances have we failed to produce our free-flowing stuff," he said.
"The shackles are off at home a little bit — we're an attacking, energetic team.
"Maybe away from home we need to start the game well, give nothing away and then start to look for a goal."
The Rams have been excellent at home this season, losing just one in Championship action.
And Keogh thinks playing at Pride Park has been a huge boost to Derby's young side — who are growing into a much-improved unit.
"It's always a bit more exciting to play in front of your own fans, who cheer you up!" he said.
"We need to concentrate on how we play.
"We need to appreciate being solid and playing to our strengths a bit more.
"As a team we're growing. We can sense when teams are on the back foot against us."

BINGHAM, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Investigators with the State Fire Marshal's Office have ruled two fires discovereda couple hours apart in Bingham were indeed arson.
Fire fighters were called to a small ice cream shop on Maine Street just after nine Saturday night. After working to extinguish the blaze and starting to head home, fire crews were redirected to the town's public works garage just a few blocks away.
The two fires in quick succession raised suspicions almost immediately and fire marshals were called in to investigate. Investigators spent Saturday night, Sunday in to Monday sifting through the rubble before determining they were deliberately set.
"Both fires are arson, and we believe they are related," stated fire marshal Sgt. Joel Davis. "We've found enough similarities in the two scenes that we are pretty confident these were done by the same person or persons."
The first fire gutted the Here's the Scoop Ice Cream shop. The second fire badly damaged the town's public works garage and much of the equipment stored inside.
"It wasn't pretty but it was functional," said Scott Steward, Bignham's First Selectman. "You know it did the trick and it was what we needed, and that is going to be missed until we can get it replaced with something, and we will."
Steward met with the town's insurance adjuster on Monday morning, and was still trying to determine exactly what had been damaged. Plows belonging to the town's snow removal contractor were among the heavy equipment damaged.
Steward estimated the loss to the town of between $300,000 and $500,000 and said most every piece of machinery or tool the town owned was lost.
"That is very disconcerting in itself, you know, for what reason? We have no idea. I am at a loss," said Steward. "Why would anybody ever do that?"
He says the town will find a way to make things work while they wait to get their equipment replaced, adding that rumors and fear were spreading through town because of the arson.
"There is a lot of fear, when you have got somebody that is doing this, I mean it is going to put everybody on edge a little bit," he said.
Steward is hopeful that other towns will hear about their loss and provide some relief, either donating surplus tools and gear or loaning the town vehicles to help them get by until they can get back on their feet.

Home Improvement for the Elderly Living Alone
Living on your own only gets harder, especially as you get on in years. If you're facing your Golden Years, then you are probably being faced with two choices: 1) live alone or 2) live in a home.
No one and I mean NO ONE wants to live in a home. Even the most civil and streamlined operations can feel like they are corralling you around from event to event. Unfortunately, living alone can be quite dangerous.
Things don't work quite like the used to. Your eyes might be going and thousands of older adults suffer major injuries from falling each year. So what do you do? How can you improve the state of your home so you can sleep just a little easier?

You might want to consult insurance sites like http://www.insurancetown.com/home-insurance/ or your provider to make sure this doesn't raise your rates.
2.) Wrap up those cords. If you have a lot of electric cords crossing high-traffic areas, consider putting a rug over them or some kind of cover.
3.) New lights. Only if you need them. One of the most common causes of falling in seniors is from poor visibility.

Autumn Bird Necklace
Picture 1
|Make a full-size sketch of the pendant, or photocopy Pictures 1 and 2, enlarging them to the desired size. Transfer Picture 2 to the back side of leather. Now transfer the side parts of the necklace (Picture 1) for two times: firstly facing the original direction and then in the mirror image. Glue the clockworks, the cabochon and the bead caps to the marked places. Note that the right and the left parts of the necklace have the same elements, but their location is not symmetrical.

|Draw a 3/8 inch (10mm) circle on both parts of the necklace for rivolis. Start working with one part, while another one is put aside. Sew one row in peyote stitch in G around the circle (Fig. 1), using an even number of seed beads. Bead four rows in peyote stitch in I (Fig. 2). Insert the rivoli in to the bezel and work two more rows in G. Go through the last bead row more than once, pulling the thread taut. Now repeat the same for another part of the necklace, altering to H and J seed beads.
Figure 4
|Embroider around both bead caps in G. Continue beading in G around one bead cap and alter to H for the other bead cap (Fig. 4). See the photograph to fill in the free space, using A-H and J-M.
