CHAMBLEE, Ga. (AP) - Authorities say one person is dead after a small plane crashed near Interstate 285 just north of Atlanta.
Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen says
the Piper Saratoga PA-32 had just taken off from DeKalb Peachtree
Airport when it went down in a neighborhood about 2 p.m. Tuesday.
Bergen said the plane was en route to Coldwater, Mich. The flight
originated at Craig Airport in Jacksonville.
DeKalb County fire spokesman Capt. Eric Jackson says the plane
landed about 20 feet from the front door of a home. Jackson says
fire investigators do not believe anyone else was hurt in the
crash. Authorities are unsure how many people were aboard the
Officials have not determined the cause of the accident, but the
plane appeared to clip power lines and trees as it went down.

I'm a first grade teacher and I'm going to tell my kids I'm making them brownies. Then I'll give them brown "e"'s and we'll have a lesson on silent 'e'. I will have brownies with me though so they won't be too disappointed in the end.
I LOVE That prank! What a fun teacher you are!!! April Fool's Day is seriously one of my all-time FAVORITE holidays! My whole family gets into it… infact, we should call it April Fool's week at out house because we always seem to spend the next week getting each other back! It's so much fun!
You can check my most recent blog posts on what WE like to do if you'd like @
One year, I followed the recipe for spice cookies, but instead of making them cookie-shaped, I used a colander with larger holes, pressed the dough through the holes, and then cut the extruded cookie dough into small pieces (about 1/2″ long) as it fell onto the greased cookie sheets.
I baked them (for about 1/3 of the time on the recipe because the pieces were small), then let them cool. I bought (and washed well!) small plastic dog food bowls, and put the cooled cookie bits into them. It looked JUST like the dog food we use!
These bowls went into their lunch boxes (covered with clear plastic wrap, of course.) The kids told me that they looked, then opened them and smelled them, and yes, they tasted them! Then everyone at their tables wanted a taste of the "dog food cookies."!
My favorite one for my husband so far has been stitching all his underwear together. You do little x's on the waistband to connect them all to each other, then fold and stack them back up. It's a clown's nightmare! It was hilarious as there seemed to be an unending stream of them coming from the drawer when he went to grab just one!
Fish & Chips for dinner (Swedish candy fish and potato chips)! HA!
My best hubby prank was in our early years of marriage (maybe our 5th?). My husband had just started working after graduating from Law School (several months early in December – he's brilliant) . I carefully sewed several of his boxers' fly fronts closed (in case he didn't take the top one for some reason). I couldn't contain myself by 10 am, and called his secretary to ask if he'd been to the men's room & laughed or had any funny reactions that morning. He'd been to the men's room (several times w/ all that coffee) and no funny reactions. Of course she wanted to know why, so I let her in on the prank (which she loved). My husband noticed her laughing and he enjoyed the joke, too. He actually thought the manufacturer had made a mistake (he wore some new boxers that day). Good sport that he is, he shared the prank with his office (telling them what a funny wife he had – and sweet, too, because she hid an unstitched pair at the bottom of his briefcase in a plastic bag). I haven't been able to top that one in the last 30 years. If anyone copies this, be sure to use the largest stitch on your machine so that you can easily remove them after the joke.
PS – love your 6th grade entrance exam!!!
Oh my gosh. You guys just gave me the BEST idea for how to trick my husband. (I'm so mean! And I blame you!) I'm going to send him a letter from his university telling him he was not accepted. It'll be marked April 1st, and at the end it will say something about April Fooling him. I'm so excited!
Ms. Anderson! i was one of your fifth grade students about 8 or 9 years back! i totally remember that April fools joke! i will never forget that ! i have loved reading this blog! i am now using these ideas for my fiancee! thank you!
Haha yeah you were one of my fav teachers! nope !i really am engaged! time flies !!

and then he said, "Come on let's dance."
I said, "What the Hell," and took a chance.
Perhaps we'll find that sweet romance.
He pressed against my body hard
it caught me so totally off guard.
All fear of falling I did discard.
A dance of love with no holes barred.
Such sadness in that melody
seems it was playing for him and me.
I thought this is what love should be
two people joined in perfect harmony.
He sees that smile form in my eyes
and hears my heartbeat as it sighs.
I drop my mask and the disguise
forget the who, the how, and whys.
A touch a kiss there on the dance floor
that growing hunger and wanting more.
Finding what I had been looking for
stirrings of desire that are hard to ignore.
Yet still when that dance was through
our special moment in time was, too.
Who would have thought or even knew
he'd say, "I enjoyed the dance with you."
Then he turned just as quick to go.
I didn't understand nor did I know.
Surely my feelings had to show.
How much I came to love him so.
It was that night that perfect time.
A love so sweet the tempo and rhyme.
Two hearts that shared that love sublime
than they turned it into another crime.

The 2008 presidential election was, at least according to the head of York County's Democratic Party, "lightning in a bottle."
It's not the sort of magic anyone can expect to recapture for this year, said Bob Kefauver, because that type of enthusiasm for a candidate only happens a couple of times in a lifetime. He supposed the last time it happened was when John F. Kennedy ran for president.
But Kefauver and his Republican counterpart are expecting a big turnout Tuesday, with both sides fighting not just for the White House but the state House.
Nikki Suchanic, the county's director of elections and voter registration, said she's expecting turnout to be about the same Tuesday as it was in 2008 -- 66 percent.
That year, 196,459 Yorkers cast ballots, a record-breaking number. The turnout rate has been higher than 66 percent, though. In 2004, about 69 percent of registered voters showed up for the general election, but only about 182,000 people cast ballots.
In both the 2004 and 2008 presidential elections, York performed better than the national turnout rate of 64 percent, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
Expect some lines: The polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Suchanic said she's not expecting the long lines of 2008, "but I'm not going to be naive; I'm sure there will be some places where there's a line."
She said the busiest times for polling places are typically in the morning as people leave for work, during the lunch break, and between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. when people leave work.
"We did discuss with all of our poll workers ways to be creative about processing voters as efficiently as possible," she said. "But you'll have close to 70 percent of the registered voters trying to be in the same place at the same time."
She said people who want to avoid crowds might consider voting in the times when polls are less busy.
Big races: Suchanic's office doesn't track turnout percentages by party for presidential elections because members of all parties can vote, she said. There are numerous party affiliations listed in York, from anarchists to whigs.
Kefauver said York's Democratic voters will turn out at about the same rate they did in 2008, casting ballots for President Barack Obama based on his achievements over the past four years.
Closely watched races for local Democrats include state Rep. Eugene DePasquale's bid for state Auditor General, Kefauver said.
"We're feeling very confident ... and fully expect him to win," he said.
Democrats are also excited about Rob Teplitz in the race against John McNally for the 15th Senate District seat being vacated by Jeff Piccola, Kefauver said, and Democratic attorney Sarah Speed has "a very good chance" of unseating incumbent state Rep. Keith Gillespie, R-Springettsbury Township, for the 47th House District.
Bob Wilson, chairman of the York County Republican Party, said he's expecting Republicans to turn out in larger numbers than they did in 2008, repeating the 1980 tide of voters for Ronald Reagan.
"The vast majority of the base in York County is overwhelmingly supporting Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan," he said.
Wilson said York is also one of eight Pennsylvania counties that are "must win" for statewide candidates.
"It's a crucial election for us," he said. "I'm very bullish, very confident. We need 68 percent of the presidential vote, and if that happens we will turn Pennsylvania red (Republican). It's a top-down ticket and if Romney fares well, it's good for the rest of the ticket."
Wilson said he expects all Republican incumbents -- which include all of the York County House and Senate delegations except Democrat DePasquale -- to retain their seats.
"Sarah Speed is a great young individual with a future ahead of her," he said. "Unfortunately, I think she should stick to a municipality race before going to a state race. She's not going to win at the end of the day. Gillespie will win by larger numbers than most people are expecting. But choice is always good."
Wilson said he's expecting a close race between McNally and Teplitz, but "we're working the ground-game in that race very hard."

At its Monday afternoon cookery classes, kids can create their own "very perfect pizzas" using chocolate buttons for olives, white chocolate shavings for mozzarella, and chocolate jazzies (ooh, we remember them) for pepperoni. Oh, and the base is chocolate, too. Heavenly (if unhealthy) fun.

You are invited to a concert of music for flutes spanning three centuries on Sunday, April 7 at 3:00 p.m. at the Thomas Crane Public Library, 40 Washington St., Quincy. The afternoon's program will include a selection of music by J.S. Bach, Darius Mackie, J.B. de Boismortier and an American premiere by Giancarlo Scarvaglieri
"The style of the Willow Flute Ensemble can definitely be characterized as guts and gusto." - Todd Gorman, American Record Guide
The Willow Flute Ensemble was founded in 1997 by a core group of flutists who played together at the Powers Music School in Belmont, Massachusetts. Under the guidance of Music Director Rebecca Carson Rogers, this ensemble delved deeper into the capabilities of the multiple flute ensemble. Since 2001, the group has been directed by Orlando Cela. Since its inception, Willow has pushed beyond the standard repertoire of orchestral transcriptions and the small amount of well-known flute choir literature, premiering new compositions for flute ensemble and even sponsoring a composition competition. Willow has recorded two full-length CDs and was selected to perform at the 1999 and 2002 National Flute Association Conventions in Atlanta and Washington, DC. Willow also frequently performs at respected locations including New England Conservatory's Jordan Hall, Harvard's Payne Hall, Longy School of Music's Pickman Concert Hall, the Zeitgeist Gallery (Cambridge), the Brickbottom Artists Association (Somerville), and numerous library concert series.

Mount Kellett Lobs More Fire At Clearwire, Urges Review of Dish Offer
Subscriber Content Read Preview
Subscriber Content Read Preview
Clearwire shareholders are itching for the broadband company to find a way to get them more money.
The company had already faced investor pressure following its agreement to sell itself to Sprint, which already controls half of the company, and Wednesday one of those holders fired off a new letter blasting the board again and urging it to consider properly evaluate Dish Network's offer.
Mount Kellett Capital Management, a hedge fund run by former Goldman Sachs employees, says Dish Network's offer last week serves to confirm that the company's board "opted for a quick sale to Sprint on the cheap."
Here's the entire letter:

The outcome of Dish Network's attempt to buy Clearwire Corp. from under Sprint is uncertain, but could it prompt an offer for Dish itself?
Tim Farrar, a satellite communications and wireless spectrum consultant at TMF Associates Inc., thinks the Clearwire offer could cause AT&T or DirecTV to jump in the fray with an offer for Dish.
If Dish is successful in grabbing mobile broadband player Clearwire, it may make it harder for AT&T to acquire Dish because of regulatory issues around the amount of wireless spectrum involved, Farrar says. He notes that Dish Chairman Charlie Ergen's statements against just selling the spectrum would mean that a bid for the entirety of Dish would be needed.
Similarly, DirecTV probably finds Dish to be less attractive if it commits to a major wireless buildout, so it may want to move sooner. Last week, DirecTV Chief Executive Mike White said there would be "strategic merit" and "synergies" in a merger with rival Dish but cautioned that there are no substantive talks underway.
But that came the morning before Dish surprised the telecom world with its offer for Clearwire, which has largely been viewed by analysts as a tactic for Dish to get spectrum or a partnership.

A Delaware judge has ruled against a shareholder motion to move up the start of its lawsuit against Sprint Nextel Corp. and Clearwire Corp., according to people familiar with the ruling.
Delaware Chancellor Leo Strine Jr. rejected a "motion to expedite" the case that Crest Financial had sought at a hearing Thursday, the people said. The ruling was "fairly narrow," one person said, and Chancellor Strine told Crest it could refile the motion.
UPDATE: A spokesman for Crest said that "We're encouraged that the Court recognized the seriousness and validity of our lawsuit" and that the firm "intends to press forward."
Sprint reached a $2.2 billion agreement to buy the half of Clearwire it doesn't already own last month. Crest, which owns 8.3% of the class A Shares of Clearwire or 4% of the voting rights when Class B is included, is looking to stop the deal.
The issue at the hearing, which was closed to media, was when the trial would begin. Crest was seeking to start the trial in the middle of April, according to a court document. The fund said the earlier start date would allow its claims to be heard before the anticipated closing of Softbank Corp.'s purchase of Sprint, which was anticipated in mid-2013. Sprint expects to close its purchase of Clearwire later in 2013.

One reason Dish Network could stir up some trouble for Sprint's attempt to buy what it doesn't own of Clearwire, is that even before Dish's offer became known Tuesday, Sprint already was facing a nail biter of a merger vote.
Here's how the shareholder math falls at this point.
Sprint owns just over 50% of Clearwire, and the terms of the merger agreement require that it must get the majority of the minority holders to vote for the deal. That means 26% of all outstanding shares need to be voted for Sprint.
When Sprint and Clearwire signed the deal, they announced that three holders — Comcast, Intel, Bright House Newtorks LLC — had agreed to vote in favor. Those three combined hold about 13%.
That leaves Sprint about 13% short of its threshold.

Clearwire shares so far aren't anticipating a bidding war.
Minutes after the company's shares restarted trading, following a halt ahead of the announcement that Dish was offering to buy it, the stock was up 8.2% to $3.16.
That's well below the $3.30 that Dish is offering, though after-hours movements this late are often different than the regular session.
Meanwhile, Sprint shares are slipping in the late hours, down 2.9% to $5.80. Dish isn't moving.
It may be also worth keeping an eye on MetroPCS shares, which rose 1% to $9.44 on a couple trades after Clearwire's news. It's in a tie up with T-Mobile, but some have speculated more bidders could come in. Dish had previously made a $4 billion bid for MetroPCS before it reached its T-Mobile deal, WSJ reported in November.

Counter-offers and bidding wars for companies are not uncommon in the world of mergers-and-acquisitions, but they have been rare in recent years given the tepid economic recovery, which has led to slow deal-making and a dearth of confidence among many senior executives to make bold moves. Companies also hesitate to break up their rivals' deals because deal termination fees can be expensive, and merger deals sometimes come with other agreements that can have the effect of deterring counter-offers.
But Dish Network and Charlie Ergen have rarely been accused of lacking the confidence to make bold moves that upset rivals. Now the satellite-TV company has stepped in with a potential topping bid for broadband company Clearwire, an offer that could top Sprint's already agreed upon deal with Clearwire.
He hasn't been entirely alone. Corporate rivalry and the need for growth does drive companies to pursue counter-bids.
In 2010, technology companies Hewlett-Packard Co. and Dell Inc. fought a 10-day battle over 3PAR Inc., with H-P ultimately prevailing with its $2.1 billion bid for the data storage maker. In April, exchange operators Nasdaq OMX Group Inc. and IntercontinentalExchange Inc. teamed up to make a run at NYSE Euronext, which had already agreed to a merger with Deutsche Boerse AG. That attempt failed amid regulatory opposition (as did the deal with Deutsche Boerse later).
More recently, U.K. consumer goods company Reckitt Benckiser Group Plc swooped in with a higher, $1.4 billion offer for U.S.-based Schiff Nutrition International Inc. in November, successfully scuttling a $1.2 billion deal between Schiff and German drug giant Bayer AG. Meanwhile, Singaporean beverage and real estate firm Fraser & Neave Ltd. has been the target of a fight for control between a Thai tycoon and an Indonesian family.

Sprint sees that Dish is trying to buy Clearwire out from under it, but it doesn't sound too worried yet.
Clearwire announced it had received a bid from Dish Network that values its shares at $3.30, which is 12% above the deal Clearwire had agreed to with Sprint. But minutes later Sprint has put out its own statement, which sounds pretty confident in its current bid.
Here's Sprint's statement:

There might be strategic merit to a merger between DirecTV and Dish, but it looks like Dish will be a bit tied up with another deal for the time being.
Clearwire's shares are halted on news that Dish offered to buy all of Clearwire for $3.30 a share. Sprint had earlier reached a deal to buy Clearwire for $2.97 a share.
Here are the headlines crossing right now:

Clearwire Communications shareholder Crest Financial detailed its opposition to Sprint's $2.97 a share agreement to buy the rest of the wireless company.
Crest is suing to block the deal–and Softbank's acquisition of 70% of Sprint–claiming Sprint was "coercive" and used its muscle as the largest shareholder to secure a cheap price in the deal. There will be a hearing next week in Delaware on Crest's request for a full trial that it hopes would begin in April, Crest's General Counsel David Schumacher said on a call with reporters Friday.
Sprint declined to comment on the specifics of Crest's claims, but called the lawsuit "baseless and without merit".
Clearwire also declined to address the litigation, but reiterated that its board reviewed other strategic options for two years and a special committee determined the Sprint deal is "the best path forward."
Among its arguments, Crest says the deal undervalues Clearwire's spectrum holdings, something it says could be bad for taxpayers because the acquisition pushes down the price of future spectrum auctions by the government. The Houston-based investment firm plans to file a petition with FCC later this month to block both deals.
Sprint's $2.97 per share buyout of Clearwire is attracting a lot of heat and some litigation from some of Clearwire's public shareholders. The problem they face is that Sprint already owns over 50% of Clearwire and the options available to a controlled company—particularly one which says it has limited ability to finance its capital plan—are limited.
If you don't like the deal, of course you can vote no at the upcoming shareholders meeting. Sprint and a committee of the independent directors of Clearwire that ran the negotiation of the deal have agreed that the merger will not go forward without a "majority of the minority" vote. That means that the full buyout needs the majority of the votes of the roughly 50% of the shares Sprint doesn't own.

Makeup dates back to the beginnings of human time. From the first use of cosmetics for healing and protective purposes, makeup eventually evolved to more symbolic applications—such as religious ritual, adornment, and sign of sexual maturity. Now, at the threshold of the twenty-first century, makeup provides material evidence about how notions of beauty and identity have changed radically over the past hundred years. In Japan, as in the West, these changes are echoed in the production and use of cosmetics. Shiseido, Japan's leading cosmetics company, provides a lens that brings into focus some of these amazing aesthetic and social changes.
Founded in 1872 as a Western-style pharmacy, Shiseido's history parallels that of the commercial production of cosmetics, which began only in the third quarter of the nineteenth century. Similarly, the development of the beauty industry's mass-marketing tools—including product packaging, print advertisements, posters, and, later, television commercials—is epitomized in the company's innovative designs. What sets Shiseido apart is its conscious promotion of a modern lifestyle: one in which the arts play an essential role.
Organized chronologically, the exhibition is divided into four parts: the Meiji era at the turn of the century, when Japan and the West came face to face; the years following the First World War, when Shiseido founded its renowned design department; the 1960s and '70s, or Pop era; and the concluding section, featuring the period from 1965 to the present, which saw a revival of traditional Japanese ideals of beauty that helped fuel the postmodern trend toward global culture.

It's ok to feel a little hungry, a Dr. told me in 1959. That may be ok to eat healthy and be a little hungry. I read on Dr. Oz something about being 80% full, I think. Check out that data and feel proud you eat well but less.
It's ok to go to bed a little hungry.
When I do this, I get a fiber punch, a meat (less fat) alternative protein and it helps me feel less hungry. 4
It's OK to feel hungry sometimes. You may be an hour away from dinner and you feel the pangs, drink some water and tough it out. Being in control is great.

Xingwana to attend Anene caseComment on this story
Bredasdorp - Women's Minister Lulu Xingwana will attend the appearance of two men accused of the rape and murder of Anene Booysen in the Bredasdorp Magistrate's Court on Tuesday.
"The minister has reiterated her call that those responsible for this brutality must receive the harshest and heaviest (punishment) possible from our courts," her spokesman Cornelius Monama said in a statement.
Xingwana called on the public to help combat crimes against women and children.
Booysen, 17, was found raped and disembowelled at a construction site in Bredasdorp on February 2. She died from her injuries in hospital.
Three men were arrested in connection with the crime. One was later released due to lack of evidence against him. - Sapa

Does Foreign Aid Increase Growth?
Does Foreign Aid Increase Growth?

We review the controversial question, does foreign aid increase growth? We revisit theories that subject foreign aid might be effective such as big push models and also models which are less optimistic such as the Solow model. We then look at the empirical evidence on foreign aid.
Contributed Content (0)
Ask a Question
There are different forms of official foreign aid such as tecnical assistance, knowledge transfer, capacity development etc., so talking about monetary aid is just one part of the puzzle. If we take the Solow model, we could also assume that foreign aid can move a country towards the steady state and not just beyond the steady state.
There are a curious and mostly unknown story of foreign aid who was extremely successful in Chile.. In the early 70s the multinational of communications ITT was involved in an illegal attempt against the late president Salvador Allende, funding actions to avoid he take office, this eas revealed and caused a big scandal. After the military coup, in 1976, ITT offered fund a non profit organization to promote and open new markets for no traditional exportations, they called it "Fundacion Chile" and opened Fundación Chile-an agency designed to develop firms in new areas, with the assistance of former best executives from ITT they opened offices in several key cities in USA, Europe and Asia. The success was huge, they "invented" the salmon industry that still give tens of thousands of jobs in south of Chile, agro-industrial and several other extremely successful business. Fundación Chile was the driving force under the so-called "milagro exportador chileno". In 1990 was transfered to the government and since then has never made one single useful thing, not even one. The key was the quality and experience of ex executives from the multinational, when they leave, Fundación Chile turned into another useless office of government
Many plans to support small business in my country are build under the assumption that their main problem is the lack of capital, and focus in give them a "seed capital" who -theoretically- will give them the big push needed. Most those programs end in failure because is a mis-diagnosis: it is not lack of capital but lack of productivity, expertise, capacity to sell and many other factors much more important than the big push of capital. Maybe analogous reasons explain why the foreign aid is so little effective for poor countries. It is not all about the money but about ingenuity, willing to work, perseverance and other qualities who are not for granted
very helpful video. I would like to ask regarding Solow's model....why the starting point is the steady state point? Is this always the case even for developing countries?
Three cases in the super simple Solow model - (1) Investment > Depreciation means the capital stock is growing. (2) Investment < Depreciation means that the capital stock is shrinking. (3) Investment = Depreciation means that the capital stock is staying about the same. Countries that are already are growing their capital stock might not need foreign aid. Countries that have a shrinking capital stock could benefit, perhaps - maybe deterioration due to war or inclement climate? But I would guess stagnation is more common than shrinking.
Thanks a lot Mr.Bayles.

Candidates for DA plead their cases
GOP contenders debate at Arapahoe GOP Men's Club
The Colorado Statesman
What best qualifies a candidate to run for district attorney in the 18th Judicial District?
At a breakfast debate held at the Arapahoe County Republican Men's Club in Greenwood Village early Wednesday morning, the four GOP candidates pled their cases.
Matt Arnold, a judicial accountability activist and candidate in the CU Regent At-Large race, moderated the debate. He will not be endorsing a candidate in the primary.
All four Republican candidates plan to go through the assembly to earn the party's nomination, but both Brauchler and Wareham have begun petitioning as a backstop measure in case they fail to receive the 30 percent threshold for delegates.
The district attorney for the 18th Judicial District oversees Arapahoe, Douglas, Elbert, and Lincoln counties. The seat has been held since 2005 by term-limited Republican incumbent Carol Chambers.
The race has attracted well-qualified candidates on both sides of the aisle. Ethan Feldman, who served as a judge in Arapahoe County for over 20 years, is the only Democrat currently in the race.
With just a few months until the June primary election, the Republican candidates tried to distinguish themselves from one another by comparing their careers.
The field of candidates is split in half by an insider-outsider divide. John Topolnicki and Leslie Hansen are both currently chief deputy district attorneys in the 18th Judicial District's District Attorney's Office, while George Brauchler and Robert Wareham proudly claim an outsider status.
Wareham, who has also worked as a mayor, police officer, and lawyer, placed his private sector business experience front and center. In his opening statement, he described the job of district attorney as one that should be about management and organization.
"With a $19 million budget, and 200 employees, this is a CEO job," Wareham said. "This isn't a trial lawyer job, nothing in the training and experience of a trial lawyer prepares you for that."
Hansen, who served for seven years as assistant district attorney, said she is the "only candidate with relevant experience to the job" and the "only candidate in the race with a record of fiscal responsibility."
"Every year that I've been in the District Attorney's Office, we have returned money to the taxpayers," Hansen said.
In his opening statement, Topolnicki emphasized that his qualifications outweigh those of all the other candidates combined, as well as those of the Democratic candidate.
"When it comes down to it, people start comparing credentials," Topolnicki said. "I'm the only one who has credentials that exceed [Feldman's]. Thirty-five of the 41 years that I've been in the District Attorney's Office, I've been in a leadership position. I've been in almost every major division within the District Attorney's Office."
Brauchler highlighted his experience as a Jefferson County prosecutor and as a prosecutor in the military. He emphasized that the 18th Judicial District has not elected someone from outside of the district attorney "bureaucracy" since 1968.
"We have an opportunity in this election to really make an election matter and to say, 'We're going to return this important governmental office back to the people,'" Brauchler said.
The first question in the debate maintained the focus on the theme of job qualifications, offering the candidates a chance to dispute some of the talking points their opponents raised in their opening statements.
Hansen, who was given the first opportunity to respond, went directly after Wareham's categorization of the job as one for a CEO, stating that the district attorney position is "not a sales job, it's not a job for a politician, it is a job for an experienced prosecutor."
"When you get a phone call in the middle of the night where a suspect has killed somebody, barricaded themselves in a house, and the police authorities want to know if they can do an emergency wire tap, you better have somebody on the other end of the line who has some experience with that," Hansen said. "You can't hang up and call a subordinate and then get back to the police agency."
Topolnicki said his track record would be attractive when recruiting prosecutors to the office. He questioned the idea of electing a "rookie" and pointed to his experience watching and learning from the mistakes of the three previous district attorneys.
"I know what not to do, that's just as important as knowing what to do," Topolnicki said.
Shifting away from experience as a qualification for the position, both Brauchler and Wareham spoke about their leadership styles when answering the question.
Brauchler brought up the 18th Judicial District's absence from the legislative process in the Capitol, including important groups such as the Colorado Commission on Criminal and Juvenile Justice and the Colorado District Attorney's Council. He said that the District Attorney's Office would rejoin both organizations under his leadership.
Wareham said that he would ask his deputy district attorneys to serve their communities through volunteerism in order to reconnect with the people of the 18th Judicial District. He also said he would streamline the technology utilized by the District Attorney's Office.
In the "lightning round" of the debate, the subject of union endorsement came up. Hansen, Topolnicki, and Wareham all said they have not and will not accept money or endorsements from police departments and police unions, citing a conflict of interest as it is the district attorney's job to prosecute police officers who are convicted of crimes.
Brauchler, who is described in Hansen's campaign literature as the "union supported candidate," defended his endorsements.
"We're not talking about the SEIU or Teamsters," Brauchler said. "We're talking about cops, and the cops want a change in this district for a million different reasons."
The issue of Rule 16 letters, which stipulate that a prosecutor must inform the defense if an officer involved in a conviction has had "credibility issues" in the past, was brought up in the next round of questions by Hansen. She said police representatives have asked her to change that policy.
Hansen asked the crowd, "Do you think that [the police representative] asked that same question to George [Brauchler] when George went and talked to them? What kind of an answer do you think he gave to receive their endorsement?"
She said she has seen a police officer that she personally convicted for obstruction of justice handing out campaign flyers for Brauchler at the Douglas County Republican Assembly and at previous candidate debates.
"There is a connection between taking union money and being obligated to them," Hansen said. "We can't have that kind of relationship in the District Attorney's Office."
After the debate was over, Brauchler leveled his own allegation of corruption against the current administration.
"Our current district attorney's husband is a [Fraternal Order of Police] attorney, so he gets paid union money to defend these guys," Brauchler said about Nathan Chambers. "Ostensibly, that money is used to pay the DA's mortgage."
While fielding questions from the audience at the end of the debate, the candidates were all asked whether they support the legalization of marijuana, civil unions, and gay marriage.
All four candidates said they do not support the legalization of marijuana and cited problems with the medical marijuana industry. The candidates unanimously defined marriage as between "one man and one woman," as well.
However, both Hansen and Topolnicki said they support same-sex civil unions. Topolnicki drew off his experience teaching constitutional law at the college level.
"In America we believe in liberty, true liberty," Topolnicki said. "True liberty means, 'Government: butt out, let me make my own decision.' I don't think government has any involvement in civil unions, if two people want to make that choice for themselves, I think it should be their right."

7 Martini opened in December 2004 at 4691 Dressler Rd. NW in Thursday's Plaza.
JACKSON TWP. One of Stark County's hippest nightspots, 7 Martini Lounge, has closed its doors.
In a statement issued Tuesday, 7 Martini co-owner Jeff David blames the hard-hit local economy, a physical deterioration of the facility and a soon-expiring lease for the lounge's closing.
7 Martini opened in December 2004 at 4691 Dressler Rd. NW in Thursday's Plaza. The club featured both live music and deejays, an extensive martini list, a creative menu of sushi and small plates and a big-city vibe.
"We have had the privilege of developing great relationships with our employees and patrons over the last five years and wish to thank them for all of their support," said David, who co-owned with Walt Stanislawski.

"She ordered her staff to 'sage the place,'" burning sage in order to chase away negative "spirits," a source tells the New York Post. Stewart taped her long-running show at the studio before it was canceled, and Ray will move in next month. "There is bad blood between the two chefs. Martha has spoken openly about her disdain for Rachael," the source adds. Indeed, the Post notes that Stewart has publicly called Ray's style "not good enough for me" and dissed Ray as an "entertainer" as opposed to "a teacher, like me." But a rep for Ray calls the story "funny," but "absolutely" not true.

Elton and Furnish already have a son, Zachary Furnish-John, who was born in December, 2010 from the same surrogate. The mother, whose identity will never be revealed, is thought to live in California and is believed to have been connected with the pair through the Center for

Surrogate Parenting in Encino. She is set to give birth again next year, according to British newspaper The Sun. A source close to the couple tells the publication, "They are over the moon. Elton and David love this lady like a sister and they feel indebted to her for life. Naturally she has been well rewarded. But her identity will never be revealed." Elton recently revealed he hopes to have more children and expand his family, insisting he doesn't want his son to grow up as an only child.

Estimated total nonfarm payroll jobs
The Colorado Department of Labor and Employment released new jobs numbers Monday that show an upward revision of previous figures, saying the new calculations will more accurately reflect the employment situation statewide. The changes also make Colorados job picture marginally better. The previously published estimate was 2,316,600. That means average payroll job growth in 2012 was about 51,700, or 2.3 percent. The last time Colorado nonfarm payroll jobs grew at that pace was in 2007.

Just received a Pfaff Creative Vision 5.5. Yeah!!
New to embroidery.
So many brands of thread!
What is your favorite brand of thread for use /w Pfaff embroidery machines?
I want to avoid using threads that shred and break easily.
Learning the machine will be challenge enough!
Thanks!! -- Edited on 10/22/13 5:59 PM --
------So appreciate this board!
Returning to sewing after a very long break
Pfaff Creative Vision new to me - getting acquainted
Pfaff 2058 new to me, now back in shop
Pfaff 1371 old standby & travel machine
Pfaff 2.0 serger and Elna 945. Both waiting to make their debut
Sorry meant to post this on the Pfaff lovers thread but obviously made a mistake
Not sure how to correct it
I would try out a couple of brands to see which is most compatible with your machine.
I have a brother embroidery/sewing machine combo and my machine came with the Brother pacesetter thread. Floriani works well but I can't easily find it and it is expensive. I am also trying out some metro thread.
people speak highly of Robison Anton and Madeira. My machine DOES NOT like Coats and Clark.
I don't have a Pfaff, but a Brother. I use the Gutermann embroidery thread and have not had a problem yet.
Good luck!
------Brother Innovis 1250D
Babylock Enlighten
Singer Curvy 8763
Brother 1034D
Janome 385.19606
Brother 2340CV
I have an older model Pfaff embroidery machine,it likes every brand embroidery thread I used,except one.
The built in embroidery thread color converter is Sulky.I started out with Sulky embroidery thread and have many Sulky thread cones.I also have G�termann,Marathon and C&C embroidery thread,because I like the shade of colors.
The only embroidery thread I will never buy again is Jenny Haskins embroidery thread ! Although I liked some of Jenny Haskins embroidery thread colors and her embroidery thread is much cheaper.
My choice is Maderia. Whichever brand you decide on, get their color chart so you can cross reference with the brand used for the original design.

"Isn�t it a shame in today�s world you can�t tell the truth. If you tell the truth you�re abrasive. If you lie you�re charming." - Bob Huggins/College Basketball Coach
I have a cv5.5 and a 7570. I use two brands Robison anton and hemingworth. I have not had much luck with other brands and coats and clark is a definite no no

Lowes and Voltcom Crescent Suzuki on top in Portugal
Date: Monday, January 20, 2014 Lowes and Voltcom Crescent Suzuki on top in Portugal Voltcom Crescent Suzuki successfully concluded its week of pre-season testing with Alex Lowes topping the Portimao timesheets today, following on from Eugene Laverty's quickest time on the first day of the test. Lowes' and Laverty's detailed evaluations after four-days on-board the Yoshimura-powered GSX-R, firstly in Almeria, Spain and for the last two-days at Portimao in Portugal, enabled the Voltcom Crescent Suzuki squad to refine the 2014 Öhlins Suspension and newly developed electronic control strategies, as the pair completed a thorough test schedule. A full day of testing today saw the team working non-stop to ensure the most efficient use of time and track. Lowes completed 165 laps over the 2 days in Portimao (725kms of flat-out riding!) on a track he had never previously ridden, while Laverty completed 133. The distance covered allowed the team numerous chassis setting evaluations to find the best balance for braking stability, steering and rear grip to further the developments made in Almeria. Laverty's 1'43.4 topped the unofficial day one times, from the four factory World Superbike teams running on a blustery day one at Portimao, with his teammate Lowes taking the top spot overall in the combined two-day timings with a 1'42.5 as Laverty also improved to a 1"42.6.
