Although Fridays promotion of a veteran Appleton police commander to chief came swiftly, it emerged from a process hidden from public view.
The citys Police and Fire Commission chose Pete Helein, the departments deputy chief and the only candidate interviewed, in a closed-door session Thursday that one open government attorney says may have violated state law because notice of the meeting wasnt specific enough.
City records show a meeting notice was posted Wednesday, but made no mention of the open police chief position.
The open meetings statute requires that the notice inform the public of the subject matter of the meeting 24 hours in advance. The state attorney general has long taken the position that simply quoting the exemption doesnt properly inform the public, said Bob Dreps, an attorney with Godfrey & Kahn in Madison, who represents newspapers around the state, including The Post-Crescent.
The issue is whether the public has a right to be informed before they make an important decision like hiring a police chief.
Helein, 52, will take the departments top position Wednesday, replacing Chief David Walsh, who resigned unexpectedly Nov. 17 to take a private sector job. Helein will be paid $110,367 annually.
In past meetings the commission noted it would be discussing specific positions: new police officer candidates at the October meeting, for example.
Its hard to explain the difference between the meeting notice last time and this time, Dreps said. The clear inference is they were trying to conceal from the public that the police chief was the subject of the meeting.
Harvey Samson, secretary of the commission, said all of its meetings adhere to the states open meetings law.
We didnt feel it was necessary (to include more information), Samson said Friday. All interviews are closed to the public under the statutes and the posting was consistent with applicable Wisconsin laws.
The citys attorney, James Walsh, said Friday that the notification was sufficient under state statutes, since it included the line, the subject of this meeting will be consideration of employment, promotion, compensation or performance evaluation of public employees
That vague definition, however, may not satisfy the legal standard, Dreps said.
Quoting a very general exemption doesnt really inform the public of what the meeting is about, Dreps said. The public was entitled to know that Thursdays meeting was about the police chief position.
Appleton Mayor Tim Hanna said he understands criticism about the process, but feels comfortable with the broad authority given to the commission.
Was it open enough? Some people could argue why we didnt solicit applications, but in the last case we did a national search and it was long and drawn out, Hanna said Friday. You could argue, too, the internal approach is better. Anyway they do it people will criticize.
When former chief David Walsh was hired in 2007, the commission took six months to make its decision.
Hanna said concerns over the process are irrelevant because the commission does not consider public input when making its hiring decisions, and a more specific notification would not have changed the hiring outcome.
He said hes satisfied with the way the commission is set up because it takes the politics out of public safety.
In the case of a full search, the public has a right to know about the final candidates, Hanna said. But its more for informational purposes, not a what do you think, because the public doesnt have all the information, we have people appointed and hired to make these decisions.
The Police and Fire Commission is appointed by the mayor and confirmed by the City Council.

I really like the nutty taste of these seeds. This is a pleasant surprise because I bought them purely to help my liver. I eat them every day and my skin is bright and clear now. Great price from iHerb too!

I bought this milk thistle seed as a supplement because of its benefits for the liver. I can't believe how good it tastes! It's kind of a flax seed / toasted sunflower seed blend kind of taste. Though I don't think these seeds are toasted. So eating a couple tablespoons a day of these seeds is no problem at all. Thanks Frontier and iHerb!

I grind these in a coffee grinder or blender, sift them, and sprinkle this on a lot of foods. There's not much of a taste at all, and it's much less expensive than the extracts you can get in capsules. This is also useful for pets, since some can't tolerate the fillers that you find in the encapsulated products.

Very good addition to my tea with salt, honey and coconut oil! I dont like to use it in smoothies because it stays a bit too large and hard even after blending.

We are happy to announce that we have completed development of what we believe to be the best top bar hive on the market, at the best price! The hive is made of white pine and is approx 4 ft long. It comes with a well-supported gabled rooftop that is covered in thick white aluminum. It comes with a follower board - sometimes called a false-back that can help control the space the conlony is using. It has a heavy duty professional screened bottom board that runs the entire length of the hive. It also has a mite board that slides easily in the bottom. This can assist in ventilation techniques as well as mite counts. It comes with 14 brood top bars that are 19" x 1 3/8" thick that can be used in the brood area of the hive. The remaining 14 bars are 19 x 1 5/8" and can be used as the honey production bars.
The hive is specifically dimensioned to allow interoperability with Langstroth Deep hive bodies. This means you can pull a fully drawn bar from our TBH and place it in a deep Langstroth hive body. you cannot pull a lang frame and place it in the TBH - wrong shape :). We're confident you won't be able to find another top bar hive that is built this well and offers this many features anywhere else. You can be assured that this is one of the best priced and highest quality top bar hives available!
Our new price for this year of $165 includes shipping and handing! You can't beat this deal!
Please be aware that this is a very large (48x12x12) and heavy (50 lbs) box. We do our best to package these up so they will arrive on your doorstep safely. Unfortunately, sometimes the metal on the roof does get a little banged up by our shippers. The roof metal is heavy but plyable. You should be able to bend it back into shape. We are looking into other packing solutions that will keep the price low and still protect the product. The hive does not ship with any hardware (nails or staples). The screened bottom board is completely assembled. The sides and ends need to be attached to the bottom board, and the roof needs assembled.
If you want the satisfaction of assembling your own Top Bar Hive without the trial and error of designing one - this is the hive for you! The hive comes broken down into the smaller segments to make shipping easier. The screened bottom board will come assembled. Top Bars will also come assembled unless you request otherwise.
The $165 price includes shipping and handling to anywhere in the continental US!
Top Bar Hives (TBHs) are becoming increasingly popular in the United States. One of the main reasons people buy TBHs from us is because they are looking for a more "natural" or "organic" approach to beekeeping. If you have thumbed through a beekeeping catalog, you will see a lot of pages dedicated to chemical treatments. Part of the philosophy behind TBHs is that the beekeeper is trying to achieve as natural environment as possible for the bees while still complying with beekeeping laws that require removable frames. The true beauty of a TBH can best be seen when holding a top bar in your hands. Unlike a Langstroth (or traditional) hive, you will see comb of various sizes all over the comb. You will see drone bees laid where the bees want them. You will see honey being placed where it works best for the bees. You will see natural sized brood and honey comb. It's beautiful!
I often get asked how much honey a TBH produces. If you are keeping bees solely for the production of honey, I would recommend that you stick with a Langstroth hive. Langstroth hives are designed to make lot of honey. TBHs DO produce honey - and it's lovely stuff. It's all natural comb - no chemical-filled foundation to worry about. It's as good as it gets. BUT - there is much less produced. If you put a TBH in your backyard, you should be able to get enough honey for yourself. On the other hand, a Langstroth may produce enough for you and still have plenty left over for friends and family. I can't imagine any beekeeper not being more inspired and in awe of the bees handiwork than they would looking at a bar of comb from a TBH.

The commission, however, did direct city staff to pursue forming an "advisory board" that will answer to the commission.
Housing Authority Manager Maggie Paluch said Tuesday night that she preferred the commission pursue two options empaneling a housing "advisory" board that could possibly be given more power after review by the commission at a later date.
Paluch said another option would be to send city commissioners for further training with the state chapter of the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials.
Currently, Alamogordo's Housing Authority board consists of members of the city commission and a resident of one of the city's two low-rent housing developments and meets infrequently, usually before city commission meetings.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development recommends housing boards meet monthly, but the city commission does not have time to meet that often, she said.
Paluch said an advisory board would have more time to deal with issues facing the housing authority and be able to meet more often.
Paluch said she was not in favor of the measure up for a vote Tuesday night because it would leave the city with virtually no control over federal funds that flow into the housing authority or the organization's goals.
"The city commission would have zero control over the housing authority," she said. "I am not in favor of that."
The housing authority had been an independent entity since the 1950s but was dissolved in the 1990s, after a dispute with the city commission, city records show.
Paluch said Tuesday's measure, had it passed, would have made housing authority employees currently under the city employees of the housing authority within two years after the measure passed.

The predecessor of today's PIGROL Farben GmbH is founded, with the name Piller & Grau KG.
As the first company PIGROL brought a water-based weather-proof color under the brand name "K60" on the
German market. Soon the first water-based wood lacquer followed this groundbreaking innovation.
1963 - 1968
To expand existing production in a former gymnasium of 1900,
several new buildings are built on the company site.
Again, PIGROL was a cut above the rest in its technologies and introduced the first solvent-free acrylic lacquer on the market.
Since then, PIGROL products are synonymous with environmentally-friendly, high-quality
paint systems.
At the ceremony of the Monde Selection, Brussels, Rome, the PIGROL Farblasur and the PIGROL Acryl Transparentlack win a gold medal, as well as the PIGROL Acryl-Buntlack a silver medal.
The new building of the company of today's Hospital Str. 71 II is built. Until today, the Headquarters, the Storage
the Sales Department and the Distribution are located there.
PIGROL set another benchmark with the development of the first and unique wax glaze with the name PIGROL Edelwachs. As the only wax coating of its kind it is at any time re-paintable with itself or any other PIGROL products.
Due to a missing successor of the family business the company is sold to the Swedish paint manufacturer Alcro
Beckers AB.
In the course of the globalization of markets, Beckers AB Alcro and hence PIGROL Farben GmbH as a subsidiary
becomes part of the Finnish Tikkurila Deco Group.
On 01.07.2002 PIGROL Farben GmbH takes over the wood protection division KULBA Bauchemie of the former company Dr. Hartmann KULBA Bauchemie. Since then KULBA Bauchemie is a division of PIGROL Farben GmbH.
PIGROL extends the product range by the industrial coatings of the Finnish parent company. The new business unit Tikkurila Industrial Coatings with the market-leading mixing system Temaspeed is created.
The PIGROL Farben GmbH takes over the wood and coating systems of the companyAnton André & Sohn GmbH located in Oppenau, Germany. For the integration of the Tardin (additive for plaster) production machine a reconstruction of the production hall is performed.
In July 2008 the PIGROL Acryl-Buntlack (ABLM) was rated by the Stiftung Warentest with "good (1.7)". The result: One of the best paints in the test with good application properties and suitable for windows and doors. Top ratings within the testes were received in the categories: protection against weathering very well (1.0) and environment and health also very well (1.1).
The PIGROL Farben GmbH celebrates its 75th anniversary. A festive evening was the highlight of the anniversary year and took place on September 19th, 2009 with famous guests: German ski legends Rosi Mittermaier and Christian Neureuther.
PIGROL's Finnish parent company Tikkurila Oyj goes public. It is a market leader in Scandinavia, the Baltic States,
Poland and Russia, with annual sales of more than 500 million €.
The PIGROL Farben GmbH creates the new branch "Farbnatur". Hereunder the products PIGROL Beutenschutz-Lack and PIGROL Beutenschutz-Lasur are market, which are especially developed for the protection of beehives and other working equipments in the beekeeping. The products are tested and certified by independed German institutes of apiology.
By the end of 2013 the company name has changed into Tikkurila GmbH.

Role of chemokines in the migration of DCs and T-cell subsets in RA synovitis. In response to local inflammation and production of proinflammatory cytokines, after an unknown event CC chemokine receptor (CCR)6+ immature dendritic cells (DCs) and T-helper (Th)17 cells are attracted to the synovium in response to local production of CC chemokine ligand (CCL)20 in the perivascular infiltrates and the lining layer. It is also possible that CCR6+ cells migrate to the synovial fluid toward CCL20 expressed within the lining layer. The presence of mature DCs in synovium results from the combined effects of cell interactions and cytokine microenvironment. Defects in production of differentiation factors such as IL-4 may favor a relative accumulation of immature DCs. However, detection of CCL19 and CCL21 in perivascular infiltrates and vascular endothelium argues for a direct migration of some CCR7+ mature DCs from blood into the synovium, where they can interact with lymphocytes, leading to potent local activation.

LAS CRUCES >> The board of directors of the Border Industrial Association has elected Ed Camden as its new president. Camden is president of Southwest Steel Coil, a steel processer and supplier located in Santa Teresa. Previously, he was vice president of sales for Lafayette Steel and Aluminum, and vice president of operations of Edgcomb Metals Company, both in Indianapolis. Camden has more than 22 years of experience in the steel industry and is a graduate of Rose Hulman Institute of Technology with a bachelor of science degree in electrical engineering, according to a release.
Camden has been the president of Southwest Steel Coil for two years, and during this time the Santa Teresa company expanded 20,000 square feet in 2012 and 35,000 square feet in 2013. The Small Business Administration of America named Southwest Steel Coil as 2013 Exporter of the Year for District Six, which includes New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Arkansas.
As president of the Border Industrial Association, a non-profit advocacy group representing southern New Mexico's industrial base, Camden will serve a two-year term.
"It is an honor to be elected president of an industrial advocacy group as influential as the BIA, which has been so successful in attracting infrastructure monies and developing legislation that positively affects southern New Mexico's ability to attract new companies to the region," Camden said via release.
Camden and his wife, Sandra, live in Las Cruces.
Formed in 2009, the Border Industrial Association is a non-profit industrial advocacy group comprised of more than 70 industrial members that account for
2,500 employees and billions of dollars in value-added production in the Santa Teresa-Las Cruces Corridor, the BIA reports.

All the products fared well in centralizing application integration, and all have good tools for defining business processes. Perhaps not surprisingly, most of them also suffer from complex configuration and setup procedures, and the price tags may give your CFO palpitations. However, well-stocked feature sets will make the cost recoverable, and training is available for all the products.
Lots of Contenders
There are many EAI vendors out there, with offerings ranging from simple processing of database data to multiproduct systems that contain conventional EAI, BPM (business-process management), programmable APIs and support for popular standards.

Then, to reduce the number of products under test to a reasonable number, we further limited our selection based on market leadership.

Post subject: Artists you'd love to hear in a horror movie
Well, ever since my ears got opened to a whole new world of tunes, especially Power/Progressive Metal. I have a list of bands that i would love to hear in a horror film. Besides, metal and horror go hand in hand:
Crimson Glory
Morgana Lefay
Megadeth ("Scream For Your Life", definitely)
Black Majesty
Iced Earth
Mystic Prophecy
Paradise Lost
Honorable Mentions:
Tad Morose - although this band is still on the new side, something about them is horror-friendly. I can totally hear them at the closing credits of a good flick. (i.e. "Servant of the Bones," "Nuclear Skies," "Anubis.")
Annihilator - this band cranks, and they have a cool sound to them. Metal and horror.
Evergrey - Although some of their stuff is melodic, they know how to make songs that could be movies themselves. (i.e. "In Search of Truth")

Good list KK!
I love horror and am a big fan of metal, but surprisingly I'm not a big fan of the two mixed together. I just can't think of a film that utilized the mix well. Maybe Argento's Phenomena? Do you have any good examples?

How about Return of the Living Dead? Although it was really punk, it stands as one of the best punk albums, and it really put a new spotlight on one of my favorite punk groups, TSOL (True Sounds of Liberty) The other movie that they have to their credit is Liquid Sky. Another movie that it worked in was Lamberto Bava's "Demons". If I remember correctly that soundtrack featured a lot of metal, including Accept, and Rick Springfield.

Hey KK,
I've been meaning to post and give you the update - The Lasik went great and my vision is now 20/15. It was a different experience than I was expecting, but I had a rather high stigmatism in both eyes too. Almost at that month date now though, so I will be able to rub my eyes again soon! Woo-hoo!
At any rate, yeah I would say ROTLD was definitely punk, albeit fairly hard edge punk, but I completely agree - it worked well. Ironically, Spinning Grave and I were just talking over the phone about the use of heavy metal in Phenomena and how much we missed Goblin. I guess with the satire slant of ROTLD, I find the music as something of a "FU! Its a movie!" tongue-in-cheek move for the filmmakers that complimented the attitude well.
A lot of recent flicks (particularly the Friday the 13th sequels) take the metal soundtrack, but it just doesn't mesh. Then again, over on the movie board, we've been talking about a few films that are generally effective because they have either no soundtrack of a very limited soundtrack. I guess that is the direction I am leaning right now, since so much these days defines excess already.

It could be an utter bloodbath. Might be the type of music that might want to make one strap a lawnmower on their chest and go to town.
I havent heard Babylon AD, but i will have to check them out. I think that for it to work it has to be loud, fast, and able to increase the tempo of the movie. I'm going to try muting the television and popping in Dawn of the Dead with a soundtrack of Whitesnake and see what happens.
Correction: The song "Scream For Your Life" that i mentioned by Megadeth was actually not a Megadeth song,(Guess the Napster file was named wrong)it was actually a song called "My Favorite Nightmare" by another group that i would love to hear in a horror movie - Metal Church.

I'm reminded of the soundtrack to Demons. Motley's "Save Our Souls" kicked ass in that movie.

There's nothing like a handmade gift. It shows true affection and love and willingness to sacrifice our own (precious) time instead of just paying for something in a store or – nowadays – online. Thank you for the ideas and inspiration. I like to give jams made with fruits from my own orchard, pickles and chutneys made from my garden vegetables and other yummy treats and they're always appreciated.

Eminem in the Detroit-made '8 Mile,' which was released in 2002. / Universal Studios
With buzz building about the possibility that the new Batman-Superman movie will shoot in Detroit next year, longtime Eminem manager Paul Rosenberg was asked Monday whether his celebrated client might be involved in the film.
Theres no Eminem in the Man of Steel 2 movie that Im aware of, Rosenberg told the Free Press, although Ive always thought hed be a perfect Riddler.
■ Related: Will Eminem drive fans Berzerk with MMLP2 single? Take a listen
Eminem hasnt starred in a feature film since the Detroit-made 8 Mile was released in 2002. Director Neill Blomkamp told Wired magazine in July that he offered Em the lead role in his current sci-fi thriller Elysium but said the rapper passed on the film because it wasnt shooting in Detroit.
Warner Bros. announced Thursday that actor Ben Affleck would play Batman in the upcoming Man of Steel sequel. Late last week, a source with knowledge about Michigans film incentive program said Warner Bros. would soon announce Detroit as a shooting location for the movie, due out in 2015. Ann Arbor native David S. Goyer is writing the script.
The Riddler, a well-known and cunning Batman antagonist, is a character who is obsessed with riddles, puzzles and word games. Actor Jim Carrey played the flamboyant bad guy in 1995s Batman Forever.
Eminem is known to be a fan of comics and has a collection of comic books that has been described as otherworldly. He refers to himself and longtime producer Dr. Dre as Batman and Robin on the track Business, which appears on his Eminem Show disc. Another track on the CD is titled Superman.
Em is a huge old-school comic book fan, obviously, Rosenberg said. Theres references all over his music.

Dead Space 2 Cover Artthegoldensimatar
The original Dead Space is the only video game that I've played that has honestly given me a real horror jolt. It was scary as all hell, plenty of gore, solid action and as a gamer; some of the best 3rd person shooter controls I think that's ever been made. So when a sequel was announced, I was totally there. Well, the cover art for the second game as appeared on it's official Twitter page.
And to be honest, I'm very underwhelmed. The original's severed arm was a strong visual image and really had some impact. DS2's artwork...lacks that. I hope that the cover art is changed, but if it stays that way; okay fine, gameplay is more important but still. Dead Space 2 is due out early 2011 on Xbox360, PS3, and PC.

A Tiny Hamster Eating A Tiny Pizza Is Now A Thing That Exists
That's when I heard a rustling in the nearby woods, and rather than watch my sister feign excitement over yet another piece of kitchenware, I decided to investigate. I followed the sound deep into the heart of the wilderness, and as it grew louder and louder, I knew I was getting close.
Then, like a saint's vision of beatitude, I saw something that changed my life forever. Dozens of the cutest animals I'd ever laid my eyes on were having a dinner party. There was an owl eating tacos, and a fox gulping up a steaming bowl of borscht. I saw robins chomping on veggie burgers, squirrels sucking back oysters on the half shell, and a bear hogging a giant kale salad all to himself. But, all that took a backseat to the smallest hamster I've ever seen eating an even smaller slice of pizza. It was in a word: mesmerizing.
Why I never thought to record this hamster on my camera phone is a question I've wrestled with to this day. I blame my overdose on magic and whimsy. I see the hamster when I close my eyes at night, and when I open them in the morning. I've tried to explain to non-believers what it was like to witness it, but no one understands, and I thought they never would. Then, today out of the clear blue sky, a video emerged online, and well, behold. (The Daily Dot)

"Weather for The Big One"
The invasion of Europe on June 6, 1944 was the greatest military operation in history. As noted in a previous column, if the weather was unfavorable for Operation Overlord, it would have postponed the invasion for two weeks until tides were suitable for landing. Weatherwise Magazine reports that in 1944, there were no meteorological observations or the use of computer models. Years ago, predicting the weather over the English Channel was challenging. Weathermen depended on secretive ship and plane reports and from spies on the European mainland. These observations were coded, forwarded to England and tediously plotted to maps by hand. Numerous groups extrapolated the data including: a civilian group in Dunstable, England, The British Meteorological Service, U.S forecasters called Widewing and the British Navy.

November 25, 2015
CHICAGO (AP) - Researchers say they've found a surprising link
between some common antibiotics used to treat urinary infections
and birth defects.
The new study in November's Archives of Pediatrics and
Adolescent Medicine is the first large analysis of antibiotic use
in pregnancy.
It finds that mothers of babies with birth defects were more
likely than mothers with healthy babies to report taking two types
of antibiotics during pregnancy. Those were sulfa drugs and urinary
germicides called nitrofurantoins.
The study's lead author says it's the first line between urinary
tract treatments and birth defects and will need to be confirmed by
additional studies.
However, experts note that left unchecked, the bacterial
infections also can cause problems for a fetus and say women
shouldn't avoid antibiotics entirely.
The study finds that penicillins, which are the most-used
antibiotics in early pregnancy, appear to be the safest.

Right now I'm working on transferring all of my livejournal archives over, but keep checking back because I'm going to try not to let that get in the way of posting regularly.
Also, I need to send a big THANK YOU to my wonderful husband who was a tremendous help in getting this whole thing set up. After a couple of hours of trying to do it myself I was frustrated to the point of tears and feeling like a total moron. Luckily he noticed how frustrated I was and came to the rescue. Neither of us knows a whole lot about this whole setting up a website business, but between the two of us (mostly him) we figured it out. Reason # 693428 that I'm married to the Greatest Man Ever.

Crash.Net MotoGP News
Bradl, Marquez talk Moto2 to MotoGP
29 July 2013
The US MotoGP marked the first time that two Moto2 champions had finished on the premier-class podium.
Reigning Moto2 title holder Marc Marquez took victory at Laguna Seca ahead of 2011 champion Stefan Bradl, who followed up his first premier-class pole with his first MotoGP podium.
The 600cc four-stroke Moto2 class, where all riders use the same specification of Honda engine, replaced the two-stroke 250cc category for the start of 2010.
This year's performances by Marquez and Bradl are a far cry from the miserable MotoGP season endured by inaugural Moto2 champion Toni Elias. The Spaniard managed just 15th overall for LCR Honda on his return to MotoGP and was replaced by Bradl for the start of last season.
Bradl finished eighth in his rookie MotoGP campaign, with a best finish of fourth. He then suffered a shaky start to this year before claiming top six finishes in the last five rounds, culminating in his first podium.
"For me it was more difficult to learn MotoGP than Marc, but I think you cannot find talent like Marc every five minutes," said the German. "I think [Moto2] is the way to go. 250 was a great class, but Moto2 is also a fantastic championship.
"You can see so many battles and the riders can make the difference. So I think it is a good school for MotoGP. Some riders have shown they can also compete quite good in the MotoGP class. We will see what will happen in the future. Moto2 is just three years old. But this is the way to go."
Repsol Honda star Marquez, who also won the 125cc title in 2010, is enjoying a dream rookie season in MotoGP, claiming three wins and leading the world championship by 16 points.
"I never rode a 250 so I cannot say if Moto2 is better or worse, but I think [Moto2] is a good category because you ride with four-stroke engines, so when you come to MotoGP it is a little bit easier," said the Spaniard. "For example, when I made the step from 125 to Moto2 that was when I struggled a little bit more with the engine braking of the four-stroke.
"When you jump to MotoGP you need to understand how to ride this bike and all the electronic side. But the weight, the four-stroke engine and those kinds of things are quite similar to Moto2. So for me [Moto2] is a little bit better [than 250]."
As well as Marquez and Bradl, current MotoGP riders Bradley Smith, Andrea Iannone, Aleix Espargaro, Karel Abraham, Claudio Corti and Yonny Hernandez all spent at least one season in Moto2.
Scott Redding currently leads this year's Moto2 standings from Pol Espargaro. Both are expected to move to MotoGP next season.

Anybody still want to tell me that Magloire has no trade value?
Nene signs for $60 million
Wallace signs for $60 million
Mohammed signs for $30 million
Przybilla signs for $30 million
And now there are
no centers left on the market.
No more Hawks or Grizzlies fans saying "we'll just sign so and so for a quarter of his price." The past 24 hours have reaffirmed what I've been saying since the new board opened up - that average or better centers in the NBA have a
of value, and teams have no choice but to pay the price they require. Fans here think that every single center in the league is over-paid, but GM's know better.
So now we've reached a point where Magloire is the only option left at center, and there are still several NBA teams that don't have one. Who still thinks he's undesireable?

The Next Big Thing Blog Hop has been going on for a few weeks around the internet and I've been tagged a couple times, so I thought it was time to take the dive.
The Rules, as I understand it, are as follows: answer these ten questions about your current WIP (Work In Progress) on your blog. Tag five writers/bloggers and add links to their pages so we can hop along to them next.
I'm gonna go ahead and tag the following: Derrick Ferguson, Perry Constantine, Josh Reynolds, Joel Jenkins, and Van Allen Plexico.
Ten Interview Questions for The Next Big Thing:
What is the working title of your book?
Where did the idea come from for the book?
This is one of those ideas that just sort of happened. One day it wasn't there and the next day it was. I like to write Christmas stories around Holiday time and I've been trying to get the sequel to ADVENTURES OF THE FIVE: THE COMING OF FROST finished for a few years now. That book is called THE CHRISTMAS ENGINE and it's just one of those stories that needs lots and lots of time before it's ready. I wanted to write something quicker that could see the light of day for this Christmas. I knew I wanted it to be a kid's book and I'd had the idea for one stuffed animal character that I wanted to do something with rattling around my brain. I thought maybe I could do something with him – next thing I know, this whole idea for a "Winnie the Pooh joins the A-Team" idea was just there and all that was left was to work out the details. I grew up on those early '80s action/detective shows: The A-Team, Magnum PI, Spenser: For Hire, The Dukes of Hazzard, Riptide, Hardcastle and McCormick … and I wanted to do something that was a playful ode to those shows.
What genre does your book fall under?
It's a kid's book, but in a very odd, roundabout way, it's most New Pulp thing I've written. Even books like HARPSICHORD and GUNFIGHTER GOTHIC, which would probably be best categorized as cosmic pulp and weird western, feel less like a New Pulp novel to me that STUFFED ANIMALS FOR HIRE, which is a pure, straight-ahead, action/espionage story. I know I mentioned up above that SAFH is like if Winnie the Pooh joined the A-Team, but that's how it started. It's ended up being: "If Winnie the Pooh joined the A-Team, as conceived by Jim Steranko."
So, yes, it's been fun to write.
Which actors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition?
Well … they're stuffed animals so we're talking vocal talents here. The main group of four members of the Squadron are:
Bronze the Golden Eagle, the team's leader. While there's not a one-to-one correlation between the Squadron and any one show, I'd have been pretty darn thrilled to have George Peppard do the voice work for Bronze. Given that can't happen, Dennis Quaid would make an excellent choice.
Ray the Brown Bear, a field operative. I see Ray as a young Nick Fury or Winter Soldier type. Maybe even what would have happened to Steve Rogers if he never needed the Super Soldier serum to join the military. He's got a sense of right and wrong and a sense of humor. I could see Matt Damon doing a great job voicing Ray.
Dev the Half-Lynx/Half-Woman, all Lynxwoman, a field operative. Dev is smart, agile, daring (Dev is short for Daredevil) and doesn't talk. So … next!
3 the Triceratops, the group's muscle. The youngest member of the group. For now. (Take that for what you will.) I'm picturing a younger, softer voice for 3. A Michael Cera type, maybe.
What is the one-sentence synopsis of your book?
Four stuffed animals on the run from former associates try to save a kidnapped stuffed animal on Christmas Eve.
Will your book be self-published or represented by an agency?
How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript?
Two weeks. It clocked in at a tight 25,000 words.
What other books would you compare this story to within your genre?
The SAFH aren't heroes, but their hats are grey rather than black, so the Artemis Fowl books would be a good comparison. I think. I've never read them but I've gifted them a bunch of times and I like that idea of a story for a younger audience that walks a morally ambiguous line.
Who or What inspired you to write this book?
Have Idea. Will Write. That's what I do.
What else about your book might pique the reader's interest?
I think the idea that this is a New Pulp book aimed at a younger audience makes it a bit unique. It's certainly unique for the circles I run in, and I'll be interested to see if it works, too see if it works for both kids and New Pulp fans.

|Midwifery care and medical complications: the role of risk screening.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 7779225 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|This study analyzed the 147,293 births attended by midwives in the United States in 1989. It used the revised and expanded standard national certificate of a live birth, which for the first time systematically records prenatal medical risk, intrapartum complications, obstetric procedures, and birth outcomes. It builds on earlier findings of positive outcomes for midwife-attended births to examine the prenatal medical risk profile of mothers served by midwives, the performance of obstetric procedures by midwives in different birth settings, more specific measures of outcomes, and possible explanations for these findings. Although midwives attending births in birth centers and homes generally serve mothers who are at much less than average medical risk, and in cases of intrapartum complications risk screening appears to occur, nurse-midwife-attended births in hospitals involve mothers whose risk profiles compare with, and in some cases are worse than, the national average. Nonetheless, the outcomes of these births are better than the national average. Mothers attended by midwives in birth centers and homes also have a different pattern of prenatal care, which begins later and includes fewer visits, but gives more apparent attention to self-care, and results in less smoking and alcohol use and greater weight gain.

I am not sure whether this is a bug, or just a misunderstanding on my part, but it is a simple enough issue to describe and recreate:
If I have a file or album loaded in a playlist... say I select all 10 tracks on this album, and then embed the Front Cover album art into the said tag...
Using Columns UI, I have it showing a thumbnail of the album art next to each grouping of files (put into order by something natural, say... %album artist% %artist% %album% %discnumber% %tracknumber%
That's just for example, but similar to how an "album" would be made to group together.
Regardless of that, though... even if it is a single file, ungrouped, in either circumstance --
If I embed the Front Cover art using foobar2000... it of course doesn't show the album art (as expected)... but then I even go to the "Reload info from file(s)", which I was under the impression that this function basically re-read all of the tag info, etc... and updated the display elements accordingly (did something like a forced refresh on the display of those data fields...
But I can't get it to show the album or track's cover art, even after reloading the info from the file. The ONLY way that I can get it to show the embedded Front Cover is to remove the file from the playback/playlist queue, and re-add it freshly. Am I mistaken in thinking that the "Reload info..." should make it show the newly embedded cover art? If I am, is there any easier or quicker way to force it to re-read the embedded cover art and get it to update in the Columns UI display, showing a cover where there was previously none... other than the solution just mentioned (a full remove/re-add to queue)?
Or is the issue possibly that it only reloads the tag info that EXISTED PREVIOUSLY, e.g. when the file was first loaded into the queue? Therefore, now that I added a brand new tag that didn't exist at that point, it's only reloading the original tag info, and not any newly added ones?
Don't mean to be so repetative and elementary... I just want to make sure I am explaining my viewpoint of what is or isn't going on, and then if I need to be corrected in my understanding of something, then you can pinpoint exactly where I'm failing in my assumptions...
Thank you! It's just something that I have been "working around" for a long time, and I want to find out what I am possibly doing wrong and how to best accomplish the refresh!

Saw this post and just wanted to let you and the forum know, "me too". My experience began to occur on random artists within my playlists. I associated my music files through discogs but I didn't always need the full details so I would just grab the appropriate front cover, save it to disk, then from the columnsUI write tags > front cover, I associated the front cover to the correct artist album.
Everything was fine in my case until about 3 weeks ago when random files, for lack of a better description, became corrupt displaying random cover art from other albums in my library. I've tried the "reload" option and a few other restore options, without any luck. Since I'm using fb2k to manage an iPod, I'm not sure what the best approach is. I'm also wondering if WMP (which I use to manage my Sony MP3 player) may have fouled something up.
So, if someone is monitoring this thread, there's more than one occurrence. More details can be provided if asked. Thanks.

I think your assumption about the evil WMP may have something to do with it, in fact, I bet I can tell what may have happened.
WMP has this horrible, nasty, terrible... inexcusable habit of going through your album art (external, not embedded) and resizing your folder.jpg files to 280x280 (hi-res, right? great looking when you expand that to a size that you can actually see)... then it gives the folder.jpg file both hidden and system attributes (or was it read-only) -- either way, it butchers any folder.jpg art, which foobar can and does use (at least for me, all the time)...
What likely has happened is you've opened WMP (and that's all it takes... even if you explicitly set the options that say DONT F**K WITH MY FILES, it disregards that)... so it basically does this without asking the user, and once it's done, the damage is done. It also creates a smaller thumbnail version called AlbumArtSmall or something similar which is again, like a massive 70x70 (who in 2012 is looking at album art the size of an icon?? And what made them decide, once again... in 2012, 2011, whatever it may be... that 280x280 is the optimal resolution for the LARGE version of the cover art? Totally asinine.
Anyway... possibility-- what foobar was once using to show your album art, the folder.jpg file inside each album's folder.... is now a hidden file, and it may not be able to see it, so it assumes the file is missing... and therefore doesn't display artwork for that album or set of files. To prove or disprove this, go into your explorer options and Show all file types; hidden, system and show hidden files blah blah... you wanna see it all... then navigate into several of your album folders or mp3 folders that used to have artwork showing... see if you find the hidden folder.jpg AlbumArt.jpg AlbumArt_small.jpg (or whatever) hiding in there. If so... I would say mystery is solved.
You can do a 1 command, recursive pass through each of your folders unsetting the hidden and system attributes, and (in my case, I also set it to delete the newly created 2 AlbumArt files as well) and restore folder.jpg back to a usable state -- but the sad, sorry part is... it's forever 280x280; and this is the very reason why:
a) I refuse to even OPEN WMP, because like I said, it starts this militant takeover immediately... no waiting around for WMP!
b) Now make sure to always EMBED my album art into the file... and on top of that, since I like having the album art preview on folders in explorer, once I get my decent good sized artwork back, I set folder.jpg to read-only and I make a second copy of it, named like 00-whateverblahblah.jpg -- a file that WMP won't go seek and destroy in case my folder.jpg happens to be molested again, I always have a backup of the external file.
Sound like a possibility? I'm interested in what you find.
Unless you also did B and EVERY file/album had embedded artwork... then totally exclude everything I said. LOL. As far as the randomness thing, I don't know... but I've had that happen if there happens to be Album A's artwork in a hidden "folder.jpg" file in a folder, even if files in the folder had embedded artwork, it would default to the hidden folder.jpg, to which my only response was: "Why the HELL is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles soundtrack cover art showing up as the front cover of my CANNIBAL CORPSE CD?!" (Exaggerated for contrast/effect but circumstance was similar).
So even with embedded art, look for stray folder.jpg's. Lemme know. I still got no help here... nobody knows.... or maybe it's just a well-guarded secret of the foo crew... Hope to hear back from you again.

Copper:SPY ratio pointing lower? 0 commentsCopper (using JJC as its proxy) has recently broken to the upside.

Very simple I compared a Copper-to-SPY chart to SPY over the last five year. I'm calling the white line The Ratio. It is JJC divided by SPY. The blue line is SPY.

|Well, if you want a provably false direct quote, try this one. Among other statements that 150 years have shown to be false, this one sticks out. "the condition of domestic slavery...furnished a class of laborers as happy and contented as any in the world." Early was an excellent division commander, but he was also a man of his time. I have no doubt he believed this statement, but it is clearly not true. Quote is from Early's "Memoir of the Last Year of the War for Independence" pp. VIII. You can find the full text on Googlebooks if desired.

Dave Netterstrom, mayor of Cocoa Beach, wants the city to add a signature project or experience at the beach.
- Filed Under
Cocoa Beach leaders have pushed change - or stayed one step ahead of it.
Commissioners have invited residents to share their vision for a beautified, signature entry to the city on State Road 520. And they began work on zoning rules for medical-marijuana dispensaries before the issue made it onto November's ballot. And they just voted to dismantle their red-light camera system before the traffic tickets become a turnoff to tourists.
So, what's next for Cocoa Beach? I interviewed Mayor Dave Netterstrom about issues emerging in Brevard's most famous beach city.
Question: FLORIDA TODAY reported on a proposed beachfront trail running for a mile south of Fischer Park. Explain.
Netterstrom: We think it would be great for the community, great for economic development. The idea is to have this walking, bikeable trail that meanders through residential areas very peacefully but then also connects to hotels and commercial property. The hotels could have dining and shopping out there.
It would be something cool, something to do in Cocoa Beach. I got 20 letters from second-graders at Our Savior School - before we even talked about this trail - saying, "We'd like to have a place to learn to ride a bike, where we could see nature, have a picnic, that's away from cars and traffic."
Q: About a year ago, you were talking about doing a showcase project in Cocoa Beach that could perhaps qualify for tourist-development-tax money. Is this it?
Netterstrom: Actually, we did a workshop and got 50 to 60 ideas, then narrowed it down to two, which were the beachwalk and a pier.
Where the beachwalk got legs ... the TDC (Tourist Development Council) and a lot of the hotel people liked it. Then, as part of discussion of improving the corridor on A1A from the port to the Pineda Causeway, it got the Florida Department of Transportation's support. And there's a third group interested: the greenway people, and their vision of being able to ride a bike from Key West to Maine.
Q: So, who opposes it?
Netterstrom: Our big challenge is that property owners on the beach, they own to the mean high water mark. So, we would need to go in front of some condos and get their permission. And they have their concerns about safety and strangers walking close to their condos.
What I'm asking for is, let us get it to the point of drawing it, see if we can get a permit - we have turtles and dunes - and then give us a chance to make a presentation to these homeowners. Either they want it or they don't.
Q: On your western waterfront, what is Cocoa Beach's outlook on restoring the Indian River Lagoon?
Netterstrom: It absolutely, positively has been a top priority in Cocoa Beach. We've done a lot.
We spent about $20 million on our water treatment plant to make sure we're not pumping nitrogen into the river.
We're updating our sewer system where there might be leaks or infiltration.
And recently, we did the lawn-fertilizer ordinance. It's controversial to do that, but we said, we're going to give the benefit of the doubt to the Indian River Lagoon. If science proves we went too far, then we'll back off.
But when you get up in the air and look down on Cocoa Beach, with all the people living right there, you've got to believe we have a large impact on the lagoon and it's our responsibility to be as conscientious and conservative as we can about it.
Q: Meanwhile, you've had a consultant soliciting residents' vision for their town and evaluating whether it fits today's development rules. Cocoa Beach fought some pitched battles over height restrictions over the years before settling on 45 feet. Could the city reopen the issue?
Netterstrom: We have some unique things about our code, including a rather strict height limit -- you can't go an inch above it. It has been very sensitive and important to people. But Cocoa Beach has been stuck in a rut a little bit. You're not seeing many new buildings.
By hiring a consultant and bringing people together, it gets a vision of what they want for the future, and it could point to some things that need change.
For example, we might want to let some architectural features go above 45 feet, or an air-conditioner or a stairwell, something like that. And just have some common sense about it. Ultimately, voters will have to decide on those issues.

Ronald and Jinjer Cooke are still fighting polygamous town for water
Ronald and Jinjer Cooke have been trying for years to have water hooked up to their home in Colorado City, Ariz.
But the water authority in Colorado City and Hildale, Utah, has refused to connect them. The Tribune reported on the Cooke's troubles and their lawsuit in 2010.
Our partners at KUTV updated the story this week. The Cooke family now has electricity, but is still hauling water to their home. He says it's because he left the FLDS many years ago and town leaders are discriminating against him.
At one point, Colorado City filed a counterlawsuit against the Cookes, saying the family didn't go through the proper procedures for water hookups.
The Cooke's lawsuit is in federal court in Phoenix. The sides have filed motions for judgement and are waiting for rulings from Judge James Teilborg.
