ARCADIA, Calif. (AP) — Game On Dude held off the closing bid of Awesome Gem to win the $250,000 Goodwood Stakes at Santa Anita on Saturday, earning his first victory since March 5 and giving him a berth in next month's Breeders' Cup Classic.
Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert went 1-3 in the Grade 1 race, with Coil finishing third.
Game On Dude ran 1 1-8 miles in 1:47.36 under Chantal Sutherland, who was aboard when the 4-year-old gelding survived a rough race and stewards' inquiry to win the Santa Anita Handicap. Since then, Game On Dude was winless in four races.
Pacific Classic winner Acclamation, who drew the rail in the Goodwood, was scratched to run in Sunday's Clement L. Hirsch Stakes on the turf.

Colby Brenner had three hits, including two doubles, Saturday.
April 6, 2013
Stockton, Calif. - Junior Colby Brenner finished with a pair of doubles and three hits overall as Long Beach State scored three runs early and three runs late in support of Jake Stassi, beating Pacific 6-2. The junior starting pitcher set a season high with 7.2 innings pitched against the Tigers.
Pacific (8-17, 1-4 Big West) struck first, scoring a pair of runs in the first inning. After a Tyler Sullivan double, Erik Lockwood reached on an error, and two straight fielder's choices led to a pair of runs for the Tigers in the first inning.
Long Beach State (12-17, 3-2 Big West) answered right back in the top of the second inning. Jeff Yamaguchi started the inning with a triple, then scoring on an infield single from Richard Prigatano. A perfect hit-and-run from Eric Hutting put runners on the corners and a double from Brenner, the first of two on the day, tied the game a two. A sacrifice fly by Jeff McNeil added one more run as the Dirtbags took the lead 3-2.
From there, Stassi was in command, throwing 6.2 additional innings, all scoreless over the Tigers. The junior was helped by a pair of 5-4-3 double plays behind him, but worked to match Michael Benson, Pacific's starting pitcher who went eight innings, allowing just the three runs that came in the second inning.
In the ninth, Prigatano started off the frame with a single and advanced to second on an error as the first batter against reliever Nick Viola. After a sacrifice, Hutting, Brenner and McNeil hit three straight doubles to bring home three runs, opening up a 6-2 lead for the Dirtbags.
Jon Maciel, who came in to make the last out of the eighth inning, finished off the ninth to earn his fourth save of the season.
Long Beach State and Pacific finish their series Sunday at 1 p.m. Freshman David Hill will take the mound for the Dirtbags.

If you didn't see it, you really shouldn't miss a segment from The Daily Show from last week. Its introduction:
"Science claims it's working to cure disease, save the planet and solve the greatest human mysteries, but Aasif Mandvi finds out what it's really up to."
From global warming…to evolution…to the HPV vaccine and other topics, the segment looks at science bashing and the clash between science and politics.

Closed Door Trial Names Accused Murderer in Killing of Iranian Dissidents
The closed military trial of 17 Iranian secret service agents accused of killing leading dissidents concluded its second session Monday by publicly identifying, for the first time, the name of the case's main defendant.
"The principal accused, named Mostafa Kazemi, also known as Mussavi, was called to the stand where he answered questions from the Judge Mohammad-Reza Aghighi and offered a defense," the military court indicated in an official statement.
It added the trial would resume next Saturday. No further details were provided.
Reza Zarandi, spokesman for the military courts, said that the trial would continue to be conducted in secret "for reasons of national security and public order". None of the other defendants has been identified publicly.
During the trial's opening session Saturday, the judge ordered the arrest of three of the defendants, naming them and two other suspects as the main hands in the dissident murders which occurred in November 1998.
The man named as the mastermind behind the assassinations, Said Emami, was reported to have committed suicide in prison by drinking a bottle of hair remover last June.
He is being tried posthumously by the court as the 18th suspect.
Secular nationalist leader Dariush Foruhar and his wife Parvaneh were found stabbed to death in their apartment in November 1998, followed within weeks by writers Majid Sharif, Mohammad Mokhtari and Mohammad Pouyandeh.
The three outspoken writers were well known for their calls for greater freedom of expression in Islamic Iran, and the string of murders sparked widespread outrage and heightened political tension in the country.
The families of the five victims, reportedly frustrated by the secrecy surrounding the two-year investigation, are boycotting the trial in protest and last week announced they had fired their lawyers.
The lawyer for two of the victim's families, Nasser Zarafshan, is currently in jail after saying secret service agents had murdered more than five dissidents on the orders of Muslim clerics.
Authorities in January 1999 announced that a network of "rogue" secret agents had carried out the murders but had done so without the knowledge of their superiors in the intelligence ministry.
The killings led reformist President Mohammad Khatami to commission his own investigation, amid efforts by his administration to revamp the conservative-dominated court system.
Separately, Mohammad-Reza Khatami, the president's brother and the leader of Iran's largest reform party, called Monday for the resignation of the head of Tehran's high court, Hojatoleslam Abbasali Alizadeh, for asking Tehran judges to put reformist members of Iran's Majlis or parliament on trial, including Khatami -- TEHRAN (AFP)

"Anachronistic Toronto" Toronto by kymbanm
Toronto Travel Guide: 4,329 reviews and 9,029 photos
The decision to visit Toronto had been in the back of my mind for a while, it took the VT meet, and a pending reunion with an old friend to make me take the time and make the budget work :) So I literally RAN from my speaking engagement in Arlington, to DCA, to my gate of I was off to TO!
My arrival in Toronto was equally rushed, as I was already late for the Saturday night meet - I got out of the car at the restaurant and was warmly greeted by my VT buddies as I entered with my luggage strapped on my back :)
Over the next day or so, I wandered town with various VTers and can't imagine thinking of NOT coming here. The people of Toronto were friendly, gracious, and much more polite than I used to in large urban American cities. I didn't take the time to do the usual touristy things ... but loved my wandering of the streets and visiting with the people of this wonderful city.
One of the things that struck me as I wandered Toronto was the combination of typical urban buildings ...... and the fairly frequent little gem of an older building just being itself .....
Originally founded in the upper Candadian frontier in 1793 by British officials, this city was then known as the City of York. In 1834, it became the City of Toronto - one of the largest urban centers in North America. By 2001, there were 152 diferent languages and dialects spoken by residents of this great city. Over half of Toronto's 2.5million inhabitants were born in another country and are immigrants. This mixture of old and new brings a wonderful feeling into the city.
Gardens, and little bits of heritage were found at every turn. I loved the mix of life in this city :) Between bits of British heritage, Chinatown, Kensington Market and all the other neighborhoods ....... everytime you turn your head you see something new and funky that brings a smile to your face :)

That sounds kind of like fun. :) Have you found any good wedding locations? New Mexico has so many nice places. I'm so happy for you you know! I want to do a happy dance!!!!
Great page of Toronto. Heard that the Chinese restaurants there are some of the best in the world. Cheers, SL
Ha ha, it's true, it's new, last time I went through O'Hare, the customs guy said I traveled way too much for a leisure traveler ;-) Going out tomorrow for the 1st of many birthday meals!
No telling
nice tips and great shots !! thanks !!
Thank you, Kym :) will start packing this evening...
How come I never saw a black squirrel when I was in Toronto? I'll have to go back.
that's great! i'm glad you're feeling better but get more rest, k? gotta run out for coffee (gotta stock up this boy..) ((HUGS))!!!!!
Not to mention, staying out of the sun for a good long time. Which is what I intend to do!
After checking your pics here,I decided you will fit nicely in my suitcase,get ready for Turkey next month,dont bring any luggage.

LETTER: Alabama needs new legislature, governor
Published: Wednesday, May 7, 2014 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, May 7, 2014 at 12:21 a.m.
Dear Editor: I would like to express my disgust with the Alabama Legislature and the governor.
After the teachers and state employees and retirees got turned down for raises, the legislators are getting a hefty raise, one they get every year.
Some have turned the raise down, and I commend them for that. At least some of them have a little conscience.
The governor turned down federal money that would help Medicaid. Some people say that people should get a job and quit living off welfare and the state. This affects the elderly, too. They can't get adequate health care because state-run Medicaid doesn't pay worth anything.
We need a new legislature and a better governor.

I am writing in behalf of my neighbors. The husband is 83 and the wife is 78. They have been raising their granddaughter. Several years ago the granddaughter's parents were killed in a car accident. They do their best to raise her. The 78-year-old worked hard until a year ago when she was let go from her job. It has been impossible for her to find another job when there are so many younger people looking for jobs as well. I know their electricity is turned off. I wish I could help them but I am struggling to keep my own electricity on. Could you please help them?
A Concerned Neighbor
Dear Readers,
I visited the grandparents and granddaughter during the afternoon. Knowing they did not have electricity I arrived as soon as I could. When I knocked on the door it was opened by a young girl. I could hear a woman ask from the other room, "Who is there dear?" I assumed I was being greeted by the granddaughter and introduced myself. The granddaughter grinned and shouted, "It's W.C. Grandma. He has come to help us." The grandma hurried over, and pulled me inside with a hug. She said, "I recognize you from all your pictures in the newspaper. My neighbor has been telling us all about you and showing us your picture." I offered my identification anyway.
We all sat in the living room by the window since it was so dim inside. I reached for a light switch and attempted to turn it on. I asked how long they had been living without electricity. The grandmother looked down in shame and said, "For several months." I asked how they got by so long without it. The grandmother said she had purchased some candles at a garage sale and that was what they had been using. She also said they did not have much food and what they had was not perishable. They drank powdered milk and ate canned soup and noodles from the food pantry. They also ate a lot of peanut butter sandwiches when they were able to get bread.
After I calculated a budget I informed the grandparents that they should have applied for financial assistance for the grandchild. They were never informed about the financial aid and were struggling very hard without it. I networked them to someone who could help with the paperwork, but it would take weeks.
I asked if they had a car. The grandmother said she had a very old car but they did not have money to put gas in it. It also did not have heat due to a repair she could not afford.
The grandmother told me even when they were feeling very sad over the loss of their daughter and son-in-law, the granddaughter always loved them back to life. The grandma said, "It is hard to feel old and negative around this granddaughter of mine. She is so full of love for us. She keeps me going even when I want to give up. She makes me believe we will get out of this situation and encourages me to look on the bright side of everything." I could easily see they shared a very special bond.
I thought how strong they were. Their love for one another was keeping them focused on getting through their poverty-stricken life. The granddaughter said, "We cried for two years after my parents died in the car accident. Then one day my grandparents and I talked about how very much my parents loved us and they would want us to be happy. We decided we would love happiness back into one another. My grandfather, who talked very little after the accident, started talking to us again. We were doing fine until my grandmother lost her job. I used to be sad when my grandmother came home after work and would be so tired. After my grandmother lost her job, she got very sick. It is tough living day to day, but we'll make it." I had to ask, "How old are you?" The granddaughter replied, "Fifteen." The grandmother piped in, "Going on thirty." With a big smile. I said, "I know your granddaughter is very intuitive and intelligent. Obviously her love for her grandparents has made her very wise." The 15-year-old granddaughter was beaming, and deservedly so.
Together, The Time Is Now To Help, got their electricity turned back on, filled their cabinets with food, and got them a new refrigerator. We also got a volunteer to help them apply for financial assistance due to the deceased parents and other financial aid. We got their car repaired, filled it with gas, and supplied them with several gas vouchers. We supplied the granddaughter with new clothes for school since the best she had was very worn and out grown.
We supplied much needed household items, sheets, towels, small appliances, and toiletries. When I had looked around their apartment I noticed everything was very old, broken, or nonexistent. They had been living very frugally for years in fear of becoming homeless. Even though they shared a strong bond of love that brought them happiness, they all broke down in tears after my walk through. I told them, "All the people who support The Time Is Now To Help are going to turn on your electricity, provide you with food, fix your car ...." I have seen people cry like this very often, they were tears of relief, relief from their day to day struggle from the pains of poverty and fear of homelessness. Together we make our communities a better place to live. Now we need our politicians to do more by, for, and of the people, like Senator Neal Kedzie. God Bless all of you.
I thank all of you for your kindness in Caring & Sharing what you have been blessed with to help our fellow creations. I alone cannot help all those who have reached out to us for help. Please help.
Health & Happiness, God Bless Everyone, W.C.

The Chaoyang Tower is located in the east end of Jiangzhong Road in Jianshui. It was the east gate tower of Jianshui Town. During the Yuanhe reign of the Tang Dynasty, an earth town was built here. In the 20th year of the Hongwu reign of the Ming Dynasty, it was changed into a brick town.
In the 22nd year of the Hongwu reign (A.D.1389), the Chaoyang Tower was built. The tower has the gable and hip roof with three eaves. It's 24.45 meters high, 26.8 meters wide and 12.31 meters deep. According to the record in the book named The Record of Jianshui Prefecture, the east gate tower is 100 Chi high. It towers up to the sky. People overlook the town from it. Masses of houses distribute in the town. The landscape is very beautiful. The sun rises from the east.
The whole town is bathed in sunlight. Watched in the distance, the tower is like the Huanghe Tower and the Yueyang Tower. A huge stele saying "Xiong Zhen Dong Nan" was hung in the east of the tower. It was written by Tu Rizhuo, a calligrapher of the Qing Dynasty. Another stele was hung in the west of the tower. It said "Fei Xia Liu Yun". The four words was the copy of the work of Zhangxu. The brushwork was rugged and powerful. There is an extant large bell in the tower. It's 2 meters high. It weights three to four tons. People can hear the bell in the distance.

The Boss of It All
2006 'Direktøren for det hele' Directed by Lars von Trier
An IT company hires an actor to serve as the company's president in order to help the business get sold to a cranky Icelander.

While it's nowhere near a laff-a-minute chucklefest, The Boss of It All is an admirable effort at straight-up comedy from Mr. "How many scenes of genital mutilation can I get away with" himself, Lars von Trier. Not surprisingly, it's dry as a desert and considerably black in parts, but I still found myself laughing quite audibly at many of the jokes. There are certainly some misses, and the first half lacks the heart of the second, but it's certainly a bright spot in the director's catalogue and worthwhile for even those merely inquisitive of the man's work considering his indelible signature throughout. As von Trier loves to experiment visually with each film, the new element here is 'Automavision,' which sounds…
So... Lars von Trier made a comedy... fuck me...
Von Trier had to let me down some time I guess
"Here comes a movie and, if it already looks a bit weird, then hang in there, because anyone can see it. Although you see my reflection, trust me, this film won't be worth a moment's reflection. It's a comedy, and harmless as such. No preaching or swaying of opinion. Just a cozy time. So why not poke fun at artsy-fartsy culture?"
- Lols Von Trier.
Lars von Trier does The Office. Funny and terrifying. The opening is like his riff on Godard's opening to Le Mepris. When von Trier does genre he commits to it - I get annoyed when people don't consider Antichrist a horror film. It's not surprising that he can do comedy as most of his films are funny.
#Ninth Of Lars Von Trier#
Lars Von Trier making comedy! You have to watch it.
The movie starts with Lars telling us what he is making. And the hilarious journey starts.
This movie is a simple comedy with a deciding Who is the Boss of it all?
The audience knows who is the boos, but the characters ib them they are clueless.
I liked how the characters are placed. Kristoffer who is hired by Ravn who in fact is The Boss of it all to sign a deal with a man who hates Danish people. And how the journey starts and how some secrets are revealed in the process was funny to watch.
Lars has used the camera in a…

Leuk dat von Trier kennelijk alle genres en bijpassende conventies afgaat. Met 'The Boss of It All' neemt de deprimerende Deen het genre van de komedie onder handen. Is het grappig? Nou nee. Daarvoor is het teveel intellectueel hoogstaand gedoe met experimentele vormspelletjes, verwijzingen naar theatertheoretici en momenten van Brechtiaanse zelfreflectie. Op het hoesje staat iets van 'als von Trier The Office zou doen', tsjaaaa, misschien spreekt het boekdelen dat ik dat soort melige kantoorhumor totaal niet kan waarderen.
Well, he can't win them all, I guess. This is just sorta a confluence of factors, unfortunately, the automavision or whatever the hell von Trier called it is a stylistic choice that's finally more arch than evocative, the performers are all directed more weird than the movie sustains tonally, it doesn't know when to end, but all that can be forgiven. Ultimately it's just not funny enough, is the real issue, a really great germ of an idea not being taken the places it needs to go to be really brilliant or hilarious other than one particular moment. It's rarely like actively harming itself, even the automavision just plays as bizarre rather than like actively bringing the movie down, but…
Lars should do more comedy. The Boss of It All was shot with the fictitious Automavision, a brand of software that chooses how to frame and edit each shot without the interference of a director. This makes for a very jarringly put-together motion picture. What people don't realize is that the Automavision has become sentient in the meantime, and actually managed to win the Oscar for Best Director in 2011 for making The King's Speech. Congratulations to you, Automavision.
Il grande capo : una commedia (?!) di Von Trier
11/10. Should of made Bunker2 GPL, not RMS approved movie.
this was a lot better than i expected! the final bits really made it for me.
Way, way better than I expected. Even if you hate Lars, you should check this out.
Encore une oeuvre unique provenant de ce cher Lars Von Trier. Dés le premier plan, il nous met sous les yeux la transparence du cinéma et nous invite donc à penser et voir le film en tant que voyeur et non seulement en tant que spectateur. Par la suite, le film surprend également. Aux premiers abords, on se dit que c'est très moche, que c'est mal coupé, mal monté, mal filmé, mais on se rend compte que ceci est le but du film. A la manière d'une pièce de théâtre, le réalisateur tire les ficelles en temps réel et de manière distanciée et donne la part belle à ses acteurs, excellents tous autant qu'ils sont, et nous laissent accrochés au…
The secret owner of an IT company hires an actor to pretend to be the company's president during a business negotiation. When the negotiations take longer than anticipated, the actor takes on more of the role than he was hired for. "The Boss of It All" is a comedy skewering not only the business world, but also acting. It's distinctly Lars von Trier's style, so it's amusing and aggravating all at once, which is often for what he seems to be aiming.

Sharman Joshi is happy at the success of "Grand Masti" and admits that he enjoys comedies. However, the actor has no intention of taking up another adult comedy at the moment.
"I only do work that I enjoy doing. As an audience, I enjoy all kinds of films. I am a movie buff. But as an actor I don't like to be part of all films. At this point of time maybe I don't want to be part of sex comedies," Sharman Joshi told IANS.
At the beginning of his career Sharman featured in "Style", which was considered too bold for that time.
When asked what's the reason behind saying no, he said: "Nothing as such. I have done 'Style' and 'Golmaal' so I have had enough...so may be in future I will do it but not right now."
But he is happy at the success of "Grand Masti", which has crossed the Rs.100 crore mark in three weeks.
Sharman said: "I am extremely happy the way audiences have accepted 'Grand Masti'. I am in Inder Kumar's next film. He is a great director. As I said before, I love watching sex comedies, but I am not sure whether I want to be part of these films."
Sharman is currently busy promoting "War Chhod Na Yaar". Directed by Faraz Hayeder, the film also stars Soha Ali Khan and is slated for an Oct 11 release.

You won't be eligible for FMLA so anytime after you are through with any type of training, I would tell.
I personally didn't tell my boss or co-workers until they caught me throwing up on the side of the building.
Diane |mommy to| Drake Preston {9/3/2009} Paris Jade {11/5/2014}
You may not be even be eligible for FMLA without working a certain amount of hours first. With that being said I'd wait until after training is over. Time to find some cute flowy tops!
So yea...after training I'd say something...you may have to get unpaid leave.
FMLA is 1250 hours and a year of service. there are also requirements in terms of company size in order for the company to be bound to it. google FMLA and your state on line to see what it is specifically.

The incredible shrinking vaccine-autism hypothesis shrinks some more
Just when I thought I was out… they pull me back in.
Michael Corleone in The Godfather, Part 3
I hadn't planned on doing two vaccine posts with such a short interval between them, but all too often, as the they say in the weakest of the Godfather movies, I get pulled back in again. So, after noting last week that 2009 was shaping up–fortunately–to be a very bad year for antivaccinationists, I should have expected a counterattack from the antivaccine fringe. Indeed, the only thing that surprised me after the twin blows of the revelations about scientific fraud on the part of the originator of the claim that the MMR vaccine causes autism, Andrew Wakefield, and the resounding defeat of the first three test cases of the Autism Omnibus proceedings, was that it took longer than I had expected. True, a group had formed, proclaiming that "we support Dr. Andrew Wakefield." Also true, the antivaccine activists at the Age of Autism have been working overtime to attack the Autism Omnibus as being hopelessly rigged. Indeed, our "old friend" Dr. Jay Gordon has even likened attempts to refute antivaccine pseudoscience to tobacco companies' P.R. and astroturf campaigns back in the 1950s through 1980s to cast doubt on the strong scientific and epidemiological evidence showing that cigarettes cause lung cancer.
But those contortions of science, epidemiology, law, and logic were merely a warmup for the real counterattack. On February 25, Generation Rescue purchased this full page ad in USA Today:
Unfortunately, the advertisement above was only the beginning. Generation Rescue managed to team up the chief progagandist for the antivaccine movement, David Kirby, along with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., whom I have discussed before for his total support of the antivaccine movement. The question then becomes: Where would these two team up to spread their message against vaccines? Do you even have to ask?
Their twin articles appear on that repository of all things antivaccine, The Huffington Post, under the title Vaccine Court: Autism Debate Continues. As I will explain, these twin articles represent yet another example of what I have at times referred to as the "incredibly shrinking vaccine-autism hypothesis."

Cybercriminals are exploiting a critical hole in Internet Explorer 7 that was patched a week ago by Microsoft, security firm Trend Micro warned on Tuesday.
The malicious code, which Trend Micro named "XML_DLOADR.A," is hidden in a Word document. On unpatched systems, when the file is opened an ActiveX object automatically accesses a Web site to open a backdoor that installs a .DLL (dynamic link library) file that can steal information, according to a Trend Micro blog entry. The code sends stolen data to another Web address via port 443, Trend Micro said.
As a result of the back door, "anybody can run commands on the affected system," said Jamz Yaneza, a senior threat analyst and researcher at Trend Micro.
Microsoft released a security patch for the vulnerability, and others, a week ago. The vulnerability arises from the browser's improper handling of errors when attempting to access deleted objects.
"It looks like a proof of concept or targeted attack," Yaneza said. The exploit is similar to politically motivated attacks that were seen before the Olympics last year in which PDF files and Word documents contained exploit code and automatically connected computers to malicious Web sites, he said.
It appears that the site directed to is in China and there is Chinese terminology in the code, according to Yaneza. That and the fact that the 50th anniversary of the Tibetan uprising is approaching, on March 10, suggests that this attack could be politically motivated as well, he said.
"People need to speed up how they patch their OSes, or turn on auto update in Windows," Yaneza said

It is most often used to diagnose strep throat.Strep throatStrep throat is a disease that causes a sore throat (pharyngitis). It is an infection with a germ called group A streptococcus bacteria.ImageRead Article Now Book Mark Article I Would Like to Learn About:Expand All Collapse All How the Test is Performed You will be asked to tilt your head back and open your mouth wide. The health care provider will rub a sterile cotton swab along the back of your throat near the tonsils. You will need to resist gagging and closing your mouth while the swab touches this area.The health care provider may need to scrape the back of your throat with the swab several times. This helps improve the chances of detecting bacteria. How to Prepare for the Test DO NOT use antiseptic mouthwash before this test. How the Test will Feel Your throat may be sore when this test is done. You may feel like gagging when the back of your throat is touched with the swab, but the test only lasts a few seconds. Why the Test is Performed This test is performed when a throat infection is suspected, particularly strep throat. A throat culture can also help your health care provider determine which antibiotic will work best for you. Normal Results A normal or negative result means no bacteria or other germs that may cause a sore throat were found. What Abnormal Results Mean An abnormal or positive result means bacteria or other germs that can cause a sore throat were seen on the throat swab. Risks This test is safe and easy to tolerate. In very few people, the sensation of gagging may lead to an urge to vomit or cough.Related Information Strep throatDiphtheria Open ReferencesReferencesNussenbaum B, Bradford CR.

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings have taken steps toward adding free agent Jerome Simpson, the former Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver with a felony drug conviction.
General manager Rick Spielman confirmed Tuesday the interest in Simpson, who visited the team last week. Fox Sports first reported that Simpson has agreed to terms on a contract with the Vikings, but Spielman declined to acknowledge a deal.
Simpson was sentenced April 5 to 15 days in jail, three years of probation and 200 hours of community service plus a $7,500 fine and court costs.
Simpson pleaded guilty March 1 to a prohibited act relating to controlled substances, a felony. Authorities said they tracked a shipment of 2 1/2 pounds of marijuana to his Kentucky home in September and found another pound of the drug inside the house.

Mini Bio (1)
Merv Griffin was a singer and band leader, movie actor, television personality and media mogul who in his time hosting The Merv Griffin Show (1962) was second in fame and influence as a talk show host only to Johnny Carson. Griffin was best known for creating the two most popular game shows in television syndication history, Wheel of Fortune (1983) and Jeopardy! (1984) that are watched by hundreds of millions of people all over the world. In the business world, he was identified as the visionary chairman of The Griffin Group.
Born in the San Francisco, California suburb of San Mateo, Griffin "came up through the ranks" in the classic sense, entering talent contests, writing songs, singing on local radio station KFRC-San Francisco, and later touring with Freddy Martin and His Orchestra. He became increasingly popular with nightclub audiences and his fame soared among the general public when he struck gold in 1950 with "I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts", which reached the number one spot on the Hit Parade and sold three million copies.
Continuing to record hits, including "Wilhelmina" and "Never Been Kissed", Griffin made a foray into motion pictures after Doris Day saw his nightclub performance and arranged a screen test for him at Warner Bros. Studios. While under contract at Warner Bros., he appeared in a number of hit movies, including So This Is Love (1953) with Kathryn Grayson and The Boy from Oklahoma (1954) with Will Rogers Jr., and Lon Chaney Jr..
Television then discovered him. As a regular performer on The Arthur Murray Party (1950), The Jack Paar Tonight Show (1957) and others, he was offered the opportunity to host his own television series, Play Your Hunch (1958). It was during this period that he conceived the idea for what was to become one of the most successful game shows in television history, Jeopardy! (1964). But it was in 1962 that his career took its most dramatic turn. He became a substitute host for Jack Paar on The Jack Paar Tonight Show (1957) and scored some of the highest ratings in the show's history. As a result, NBC gave him his own hour-long daytime talk show program, The Merv Griffin Show (1962).
Griffin's name and talk show career will always be seen in the light of that of Johnny Carson, the "King of late night TV", whom he directly competed with on CBS from 1969 to 1972. Griffin's first daytime talk show began on the same day Carson first hosted The Tonight Show (1962). While Carson's style was indebted to his long apprenticeship in Los Angeles in the 1950s, Griffin was based in New York, where he socialized with New York's theater and café crowds. Griffin's approach to television talk was influenced by two New York shows, David Susskind's The David Susskind Show (1958) and Mike Wallace's Night Beat (1956), and like Susskind and Wallace, he openly embraced controversial subjects. In 1965, Griffin was criticized as a "traitor" when he aired a special from London in which Nobel Prize-winning philosopher Bertrand Russell denounced the Vietnam War.
Despite his success on daytime television, it was late night that was The Holy Grail for talk show hosts. In 1969, CBS hired Griffin to directly compete with Carson in the 11:30 PM to 1:00 AM time slot that had proven a grave yard for other personalities. Not one to shy away from controversy, Griffin began to be harassed by CBS censors who objected to the antiwar statements of his guests and ordered him to feature pro-war guests for balance. "The irony of the situation wasn't wasted on me", Griffin recalls in his autobiography. "In 1965, I'm called a traitor by the press for presenting Bertrand Russell, and, four years later, we are hard-pressed to find anybody to speak in favor of the Vietnam War".
In March 1970, CBS censors pixilated antiwar activist Abbie Hoffman because he was wearing a shirt that resembled an American flag. The resulting blurred image meant that Hoffman's voice emanated from a "jumble of lines". CBS also pressured Griffin into sacking his long-term sidekick Arthur Treacher, who had been his television mentor, because he was too old. The censorship did not boost the ratings for Griffin, who was facing stiff competition from the genial Carson, who himself was criticized during the era for shying away from controversial subjects.
In 1972, a fed-up Griffin negotiated a syndication deal with Metromedia to move his talk show back to the daytime in the event he was terminated by CBS. The deal was signed in secret as a penalty clause in his CBS contract gave him $1 million in the event of his being fired. Later that year, CBS terminated Griffin's late-night talk show and Griffin immediately made the transition to Metromedia's syndicated network.
While Griffin may have been a washout in late night television, his impact on daytime was immense, specifically through his production of game shows. An avid fan of puzzles since childhood, Griffin first produced a successful game show in 1964, Jeopardy! (1964) for NBC. After 13 seasons as a daytime talk show host, Griffin retired from his talk show in 1986 to devote himself to producing his highly profitable game shows.
Jeopardy! (2002) remains the second highest rated game show in television syndication while Wheel of Fortune (1983) continues to be the longest running game show to hold the number one spot in television syndication history. Other Griffin successes in the game show field included "One in a Million" and Joe Garagiola's Memory Game (1971), both airing on ABC, Let's Play Post Office on NBC, and Reach for the Stars (1967).
In 1986, Griffin sold his production company, Merv Griffin Enterprises, to Coca-Cola's Columbia Pictures Television unit for $250 million as well as a continuing share of the profits of the shows. At that time, the transaction represented the largest acquisition of an entertainment company owned by a single individual. Subsequently, Sony Pictures Entertainment purchased Columbia and he retains the title of executive producer of both "Wheel of Fortune" and "Jeopardy!" (for which he still creates puzzles and questions.) He served as Executive Producer of "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus" (2000).
After his retirement from daytime chat, Merv became a real estate baron, acquiring the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, which is now the venue of choice for virtually all of the Tinseltown's most high profile events such as The Golden Globe Awards, The Soap Opera Digest Awards, and The American Film Institute's Lifetime Achievement Awards. He also owns the Hilton Scottsdale Resort and Villas in Arizona, and St. Clerans Manor, an 18th century estate once owned by director John Huston which is located near Galway, the premier resort destination in Ireland.
In January 1998, Griffin opened The Coconut Club, one of the country's hottest swing/dance clubs, at his Beverly Hilton Hotel. This weekend venue, fashioned after Hollywood's famed Coconut Grove (where Griffin headlined as a boy singer with The Freddy Martin Orchestra) features live Big Bands, Swing Orchestras, and Disco Bands amidst a glamorous nightclub setting.
He was honored with the prestigious 1994 Broadcasting and Cable "Hall of Fame" Award, alongside such figures as Diane Sawyer and Dan Rather. Winner of 15 Emmy Awards, Griffin was presented an Outstanding Game/Audience Participation Show Emmy for 1993-1994 as executive producer of Jeopardy! (1984) He had also been the recipient of the coveted Scopus Award from the American Friends of Hebrew University, "The Duke Award" presented by the John Wayne Cancer Institute, and he had been honored by the American Ireland Fund and the SHARE organization. He was Lifetime Honorary Festival Chairman of La Quinta Arts Festival and recently donated his Wickenburg Inn and Dude Ranch to Childhelp USA.
In March 2001, the Gold Label released his new CD, "It's Like a Dream", for which he composed the title song. Among his private passions are his family, son Tony Griffin, daughter-in-law Tricia, and grandchildren Farah and Donovan Mervyn, his long-haired sharpei dog Charlie Chan, his La Quinta ranch near Carmel, where he raises thoroughbred racing horses, and his 135 foot, four-story high ocean going yacht, Griff. Merv Griffin died at age 82 of prostate cancer in Los Angeles, California on August 12, 2007.

A proposed chicken processing plant in Nash County is worrying residents of Raleigh and other communities because of wastewater that could flow into the Neuse River.
The plant operated by Sanderson Farms would dispose of 1.4 million gallons of wastewater daily in a watershed that is part of the Neuse River basin, a source of drinking water for Raleigh and several other communities.
The nearby city of Wilson has sued in an attempt to block the plan that calls for 500 broiler houses, 24 pullet houses and 48 hen houses.
Nash County officials have increased the amount of money to defend the lawsuit. County leaders are backing the plan because it would bring 1,100 jobs into the area, which has suffered from high unemployment.
A representative from Sanderson Farms spoke about the proposed chicken processing plant in Nash County for the first time in a public meeting Tuesday. The Sanderson representative, Bob Billingsley, and a panel of environmental and economic experts addressed Nash County commissioners about controversial aspects of the proposed poultry plant.
Billingsley gave a power point presentation about Sanderson Farms, saying the proposed plant won't harm the environment. Chris Thompson with the the Wooten Company discussed an environmental impact statement done on the plant, saying grass planted at the facility's proposed spray field site would absorb the nitrogen from the spray, but said the plant would probably create some bad odors.
Many people who attended the meeting say they're still worried the plant will contaminate the environment.
"We're concerned about the environment. We're concerned about home values. We're concerned about the vision of the future of Nash county. This is a prime location. It's in a watershed area and we need to protect it," said Bert Daniel with the Nash County Landowners Association.
Concerned citizens weren't allowed to ask questions during Tuesday's meeting. A public hearing for that purpose is scheduled for May 10th in the Dunn building at North Carolina Wesleyan College in Rocky Mount.

It may happen that your time within GUI applications is correct, however time on the command line is wrong. One of the possible reasons could be that your system's timezone is not set correctly. To set you correct time zone first investigate what file from /usr/share/zoneinfo would be appropriate for your timezone. For example if you are from Europe/Slovakia you would set your symlink as follows:
# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Bratislava /etc/localtime
Now you can set correct time with ntpdate command:
# ntpdate pool.ntp.org
If you do not have an internet avaiable to set your time to NTP server you can also set your time from you hardware time ( assuming hardware time is correct )
# hwclock --hctosys
Confirm correct time with:
$ date
