SDSU's dilemma: Mountain West or Big East?
Boise State reportedly made similar demands of the Big East.
"What Boise State wanted was outrageous and unprecedented," Navy Athletic Director Chet Gladchuk told the Capital Gazette. "It was not palatable to any of the other Big East institutions. In the final analysis, Boise wasn't worth it … What it tells me is the Mountain West was desperate. Clearly, the Mountain West was willing to make whatever concessions necessary to keep Boise in the fold."
The Big East, meanwhile, is sticking with the traditional model of equitable revenue distribution. It just doesn't know how big the pot will be. With the defections mounting, estimates have gone from $10 million per school per year to $6 million to $4 million to something less.
The counter-punch
The Big East is unraveling like a yarn ball under siege from kittens. You think Commissioner Mike Aresco, a CBS Sports exec with deep ties in the industry, is just going to pet them?
The one thing the Big East has that other mid-major football conferences do not is a war chest full of money. What happens if Aresco puts together a lucrative offer and lures BYU from the land of football independence? What if he guarantees $5 million per school per year before finalizing a new TV deal?
There are already indications that Aresco is not playing wallflower, accelerating talks with TV networks for a new contract. He said Wednesday that the Big East "very much wants (San Diego State) to stay." If he backs words with dollars, it could get interesting.
This is proffered as an argument to stay in the Mountain West, given the expense of jetting your football team across the country for Big East games.
In fact, the opposite is true. It's a reason to leave the Mountain West.
The rest of your sports will be in the Big West, with seven schools in Southern California. The women's tennis team isn't getting on a plane to Albuquerque or Laramie and spending the night; it's piling in a van, driving an hour to UC Irvine and returning that night.
SDSU has crunched the numbers. The estimated increase in football travel: $400,000. The estimated savings from being in the Big West: $500,000.
And another thing: Travel in the Big West is immeasurably more convenient and does not involve radical altitude or climate change. It's an intangible, but it could translate into victories for teams not run ragged by the constant overnight trips into the Rockies.
No Aztecs program figures to be more impacted by the decision than Steve Fisher's, which has been ranked in the Top 25 for the last three seasons and raised the university's national profile in ways never imagined.
The short answer is that the Mountain West is a better fit for his team, given the stiffer competition, the bigger arenas, the more at-large berths in the NCAA Tournament and their accompanying payouts. Last season the Mountain West finished fifth in conference RPI (ratings percentage index) among 33 Division I conferences. The Big West was 25th.
But it's more complicated than a few numbers spit out by a computer.
SDSU's plan was to ramp up its nonconference schedule to compensate for the anticipated RPI hit, and the Big West offers the flexibility to do that. Its basketball TV contract provides the Aztecs with arguably more regional and national exposure (on Fox and ESPN) than in the Mountain West, and it allows them to sell broadcast rights to selected nonconference home games.
The Big West also made a scheduling exception so SDSU could play at Kansas in January next year. And part of the Big East deal facilitates nonconference games against its membership (there have been talks with Memphis, Temple and Cincinnati). Those high-profile games could go away, or greatly diminish, by staying in the Mountain West.

New York City - Fight or Flight?
When the sci-fi thriller Escape From New York hit movie theaters in 1981, its creators couldn't have known the title would capture the mood of the city s business climate a decade later. Recession has hit New York particularly hard: Nonagricultural employment nationwide fell 1.4 percent between June 1990 and November 1991, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Private sector employment in New York, meanwhile, plunged a whopping 11 percent between April 1989 and February 1992.
Roundtable participants unanimously agree on the causes of New York s malaise: massive shrinkage in the financial services sector overspending, overtaxing, and a government long on bureaucracy and short on entrepreneurial verve. But the CE group vented particular ire toward David N. Dinkins, New York's mayor whose pandering to labor unions, bureaucrats, and strident special interest groups, they quip, has institutionalized a welfare state mentality and gained notoriety for the city as the last command economy in the Western Hemisphere apart from Cuba.
Participants also concur that New York's current crisis is even more serious than its brush with bankruptcy in 1975. Shifting demographics, they say, mean companies can no longer depend on a steady supply of educated high-quality workers. Crippled banks cannot back the city's commercial paper as they did in decades past. Advances in communications technology, too, have enabled more and more U.S. firms to flee New York for greener pastures in New Jersey and Connecticut. In that sense, New York represents a paradigm for other US. cities in trouble. Similar centrifugal forces are pulling apart Philadelphia, Detroit, and Chicago producing a bevy of corporate boomtowns in the suburbs. Likewise, these cities have shown a propensity to elect free-spending officials quick to dole out public assistance and other benefits.
Statistics bear out the severity of New York's financial crunch. Stephen G. Craig, an associate professor of economics at Hunter College, notes that New York's $3,000 per capita spending figure exceeds that of runner-up Los Angeles by 50 percent and outstrips the average of 10 other large cities by 75 percent (see chart on page 47).(Chart omitted) Per capita spending on lower-income assistance alone totals $1,084, four times the modern city average, Craig writes in The City Journal, a quarterly published by policy research concern Manhattan Institute. Spending on social services for the poor often comes at the expense of such basic services as police, sanitation, and education.
Sniper fire from a conservative think tank? Hardly. On the flip side of the spending coin--taxation--the bearer of bad news is none other than New York's comptroller Elizabeth Holtzman, liberal Democrat. According to a report by Holtzman's office, businesses and individuals in New York carry a state and local tax burden roughly twice that of other U.S. localities (see chart on page 47).(Chart omitted) When city taxes alone are tallied that burden swells to three times the nationwide average.
But perhaps most important, the report deals harshly with New York's propensity to close its budget gaps by raising taxes. It found that a rapid increase in taxes beginning in the 1960s contributed to the city's financial problems in the late 1970s. In addition, the study contends, state and local tax increases of $822 million and $974 million in fiscal 1991 and 1992, respectively, could lead to the loss of as many as 265,000 private sector jobs by 1994.
"Clearly raising taxes is not the way to go during a period of economic decline," says Stephen Kagann, chief economist with the comptrollers office.
Crawling from the wreckage in recent years--or planning to--have been a spate of large corporations, including pharmaceutical giant American Home Products, Swissair and the Tastee division of Stroehmann Bakeries. In 1963, 175 Fortune 500 companies had headquarters in New York. By 1990, that figure had dwindled to 48. …

Born in the Bronx and raised on Long Island, Pascal made his theatrical debut as the HIV-infected punk rocker Roger in the original New York Theater Workshop, Broadway and London productions of "Rent", earning an 1996 OBIE Award as well as nominations for both Tony and Drama Desk awards as Lead Actor in a Musical. Pascal's career cooled a bit after "Rent", however. Although he received many invitations to audition for movies and TV shows, he has admitted he blew them all because of his lack of formal training and acting experience.

Posted by ESPN.com's Bill Williamson
Weekend mailbag:
Ben from Columbia: How much do you think the loss of tony scheffler and possibly eddie royal will effect the broncos passing game this week against the jaguars? Obviously it will force the broncos to rely heavier on Brandon Marshall but do you see the Broncos overcoming this losses and still getting a win?
BW: These are two of Jay Cutler's favorite targets so there will be an adjustment. Cutler still has his two other favorite targets, Brandon Marshall and Brandon Stokley. Again, expect a time of adjustment for Cutler in the game. He does have a nice field relationship with Nate Jackson who will be playing for Scheffler. It will be interesting to see. Jacksonville always gives Denver's offense fits and without Scheffler and Royal will be even more of a challenge.
Joe from Philly: Hey Bill. Long time Denver fan here, and since I live on the east coast, I have to thank you for helping me to get the latest on my Broncos. Here is a question: Does this division have the most obvious home stadium advantages? Or do AFC West teams win just at much at home as every team (traditionally, cause in recent years the Chiefs and Raiders haven't been so good)?
BW: Traditionally, Denver and Kansas City have been difficult places to play. I think each AFC West house is particularly tough for the other AFC West teams. When you visit an AFC West opponent, it is never easy. See Denver's trip to Kansas City this year was evidence.
F: what's up bill, i check out your afc blog everyday and i am a lifelong raiders fan. even though i agree that the lane kiffin firing could have been handled differently, why are people always getting on al davis for firing his coaches? of the recent coaches they have had only john gruden has achieved any kind of success. bill calahan was fired from nebraska, and hasn't recieved any other head coach looks, neither have art shell or mike white, and norv turner was fired by the redskins, and he still hasn't gotten a san diego charger team to the level where most people think they should be. i think we both know that if a coach gets fired and other teams think that he is a good coach they will hire him, ie, belicheck, dungee, jauron, etc. so tell what's up with the al bashing?
BW: Davis gets a lot of heat because he hires and fires so many coaches. Yes, a lot of been failures but he did hire these people. You have to remember that.
Mike from Flordia: With the way Jay Cutler is playing, do you see him Winning the mvp? Or possibly leading denver to a superbowl?
BW: Mike it is very early but, yes, Cutler has to be considered an early candidate for the NFL MVP award. He has been fantastic. If Denver makes a long playoff run, I could see him staying an MVP candidate.
Kathy Schall from Topeka ks: I think it is time for the Chiefs to get rid of Carl Peterson, Herm Edwards. Lets face it the Chiefs have been going down hill since Vermill left. You could even go back to Marty. I know high school teams that play better than the Chiefs. We have 4 quarter backs and if you put them all together you couldn't get an 1/8 of a quarterback. That is a sad thing. Brode is the worse quarterback in the leaque. I don't know where Edwards and Peterson thinking he is a good quarterback, he was just okay at the college level but he is not a pro level quarterback. Hunt needs to take control of his football team because us fans can only be loyal for so long.
BW: You are fired up, Kathy. You aren't happy with your team at all. Then again, why should you be? Well, Kathy, if the Chiefs continue to struggle, you may get your wish. A complete overall could be on the way.
Supa Dave from Atlanta: The Chiefs have so many needs. Do you see them trading their last two superstars, Gonzales or Johnson, before the trade deadline?
BW: I don't see it, but you know what, and I can't believe I'm saying this. It might not be that bad of an idea. But only in the right situation. If Kansas City were to get very high draft picks for both, I say do it. The Chiefs are only going to get better because of youth and they need another draft. Both Gonzalez and Johnson likely won't be around for a resurgence in Kansas City so maybe they should be given a chance to go to a winner while the Chiefs can still get value for them But that being said, I don't see the Chiefs getting enough in return for both of these players to make it worth parting with two longtime stars.

A traveler canceled his hotel more than 24 hours before he checked in, but is charged a one-night penalty, anyway. Can't Hotels.com help him get a refund?
Q: I recently booked a room at Hotel H2o in Manila (www.hotelh2o.com) through Hotels.com. I had to cancel my stay just before my trip, but I was incorrectly charged a one-night penalty.
Despite months of back-and-forth with Hotels.com, I haven't received a refund yet. They said they had to call the hotel. Perhaps that was their strategy, to wear me down.
Do you think you can help me get my money back from these folks?

A: If you canceled your room 24 hours before your arrival, then you shouldn't have been charged the one-night penalty.
But did you? A look at your electronic correspondence with Hotels.com suggests that although the online travel agency received and acknowledged your cancellation a full day before your scheduled arrival, the time difference between you and the Philippines means the hotel received the cancellation less than the required 24 hours before you were supposed to check in.
Here's where you have to go back to the fine print. The terms of your reservation say it's not the hotel's time zone or your time zone that matters. Cancellations made after 12 a.m. Eastern Standard Time are subject to a one-night room and tax penalty, according to the terms. And you made that deadline.
The second issue troubles me a little more. Hotels.com says it can't refund the penalty until it hears back from the hotel. I don't buy that. Did it need written permission from the hotel to sell you the room? No, it didn't. Securing a refund should be as quick and effortless as debiting your credit card.
You were subjected to a ridiculously lengthy wait for a refund. You canceled your room in early July and asked for a refund and contacted me in late February. If I didn't know any better, I would agree that they were trying to wear you down.
In this situation, a credit card dispute might help. I say "might" because the law limits the types of disputes that must be processed, both in terms of time and geographic proximity. Questioning a charge on an overseas hotel booked almost a year ago would require a first-rate bank or credit union that stands behind its customers.
Another option is small claims court, but given the size of your refund — just $70 — it is probably impractical. I think a final, strongly-worded email to Hotels.com might have nudged the company in the right direction. Or from me.
I contacted Hotels.com on your behalf. The company promptly refunded your $70 penalty.

Co-hosted by the National Review Institute
Religious liberty has become an early casualty in Obamacare's collision course with liberty. Obamacare's anti-conscience mandate forces employers to provide health insurance coverage of abortion-inducing drugs, contraceptives, and sterilization -– regardless of religious or moral objections to such services.
The mandate's coercion of employers is a serious affront to religious liberty and a warning sign of the problems inherent in a centralized health care system. Conflicts between individual liberty and the dictates of government bureaucrats on deeply personal health care decisions will only increase as implementation of what Obamacare deems to be an "essential benefits" package continues.
Join us as an expert panel discusses the specific religious liberty violations of the Obamacare anti-conscience mandate and the health care law's profound threat to personal freedom.

Recent purchase by P. Frost and partnership with Nobel Biomaterials which will provide inroads to other markets as well as attract even more money. About Nobel Biomaterials:Noble Biomaterials, Inc. is a global leader in bacterial management solutions. Noble develops, manufactures, sells and markets advanced antimicrobial technologies designed to manage all forms of bacterial contamination. Noble has more than 200 global licensees for products in the medical, defense, industrial and consumer markets.Noble's headquarters and manufacturing facility are located in Scranton, PA, with global offices in Europe, Asia and South America.Kind Regards
This has grown, You make a good decision on fundamentals and if they do not change You are good. Insider sentiment is off the cahrts.
So you view the fact that the company is purchasing the rights, from Noble, to "peddle" an OLD "me too" otc product that is roughly 1/2 century old seems to be a less than innovative idea in my opinion. As far as the "no debt"-there is practically NOTING to the company other than dollars are seemingly spent to pay an absurd benefit to insiders. By the way, the major insider sold 7 million shares for a nickel/share in March 2011 as I read it when the stock was significantly higher then that price....not exactly a vote of confidence in my mind.

Does anybody have any experience with residential space heaters? We are thinking about getting 1 or 2 to take some of the edge off the LP bill. My parents and brother have those Jenn-air infrared units that cost $300-400 and they seem to do a nice job but I had the owner of the local hardware store tell me that they have done comparisons and ceramic tower heaters will do the same thing for $40-60 a piece. There are also oil filled radiator heaters that he says do a nice job and that's on sale for about $30. By our hardware guys description (good guy, ISU grad) the ceramic heaters would be something you'd turn on to warm up a room quickly and the radiator heater would be one you'd leave on all the time but would not be something to warm up a room in short time.
Just for some background, we live in a ranch style house with vaulted ceilings and about 1600-1700 sq feet on both levels. Our basement is finished and the stairway is open so it's tough to hold heat down there. Our primary heat source is in-floor on both levels. I like to keep the heat around 68 most of the time.
Any help/advice/input is appreciated.

That is a true statement. Those radiator heaters are oil filled so the oil has to heat first. Also there is no fan involved so there is nothing to blow warm air around.
They say country music speaks to the heart. Unfortunately, it has to go through your ears to get there.
Your hardware store guy is right. Those high dollar infrared heaters work well, but no better then the cheap ceramic ones. A cottage industry was created during the energy price spike of a few years ago by taking cheap heaters, putting them in nice expensive looking cases (w/some even made by the Amish!) and selling them via infomercials for crazy money. Just try to find one that moves a fair amount of air and you'll be happy. Watts are watts, so there's no difference in efficiency.
Walking on water is easy. Just do it in December when it's frozen.
I have a couple ceramic units I got from Menards that aren't very big but do a nice job heating a room.

Chapter OneLily and Jane
Lily Rose Baxter stepped down off the Grey hound bus in the middle of a small south central US town. She was not sure why she got off the bus here but just went with the fact that it felt right. She also felt the name of the town was a sign. The town was called Eden. She thought that Eden was where she needed to start a new and fulfilling life.
Lily left the bus station, walked a few blocks and was in the middle of the town. There were quaint streets with old, well-kept stores built in the old fashion of towns constructed many years ago. As Lily walked down the main street of town, she passed an aged drugstore on the corner of the intersection. As she peered into the glass windows she noted that there was a bar with a soda dispenser behind it and there were stools along the front of the bar with round, red, plastic seats that, of course, turned all the way around. She passed a five and dime store that she saw had the doors open with various items displayed on the street. There was no one around but she was sure none of the items would be stolen just from the feel of the town.
On the end of the block was a newsstand in the corner store. She saw every kind of the reading material through the open doors. Inside the store there was the musty smell of old and new printed material all mixed together. There was a train depot at the end of Main Street that had been refurbished as a traveler information center. Lily walked into the station and saw it had been decorated with the original décor of the days when train stations were the center of activity with passenger trains coming in and people traveling in great numbers.
Today there was one lady sitting behind a desk in the train station. The lady immediately greeted Lily and asked if she could help her. When the lady walked around the desk, Lily saw that she was about five feet two, slim with short gray hair. She had a lovely face and must have been very attractive when she was young. She appeared to be in good shape for her sixty something years as she stood very straight and walked quickly toward Lily.
Lily said, "Hello, I just got off the bus and I like what I see of the town. I think I would like to stay here a while. I will need a place to rent to see if I would like to make this my home."
The lady responded with, "I know you will love this town. I have lived here my entire life and have loved every minute of it. I am sure you can find a place to rent either an efficiency room or an apartment."
Lily answered, "Good. I don't need much but it needs to be furnished."
The lady looked at the one suitcase that Lily was carrying and said, "I will give you some names and addresses of some nice places to rent. Have a look around while I get that information for you."
Lily looked around the depot and noted that everything was restored and the room felt very cozy and inviting. She could almost feel the hustle and bustle of passengers switching places, either coming or going. She wondered if a passenger train even stopped here anymore. That would be something that Lily would like to research because she wanted to know everything about this possible new home.
Lily took the information that the lady handed her which had several names and addresses written in a careful, strict handwriting. Lily thanked her and then asked, "Which is the closest and how do I get there?"
Lily was led to the front porch of the depot then told, "Just go down this street a few blocks, turn left and cross the railroad tracks. Continue a few blocks and you will find the street names on this list. Nearly all the ones I wrote down are in the same area as I noted you were walking. Good luck and come by to see me again."
Lily thanked her and also promised to let her know what she found. There was not much traffic as she crossed the street and headed in the direction that the woman had directed.
This town, in the days when the train was a popular mode of transportation, was a very busy town. The town also had a major highway that ran right through the center of it. These travel modes were a great source of revenue for many businesses. However an interstate had been built a few years back. The interstate went around the town crossing both ends of it and making an arc around the middle of town. There were two exits off the interstate into town, one on each end. Therefore, most of the restaurants and gas stations had migrated to each end of town. The other factor that killed the middle of town was a Wal Mart superstore built at one of the exits of the interstate. Over time, lots of businesses flocked around that area to soak up the business that Wal Mark generated.
What saved the town from drying up was the poultry business. There was a poultry processing plant that provided numerous jobs and the farmers in the area started raising chickens for the industry. This greatly increased the income for the farmers. In fact, it probably saved many small farms that did not have enough land to support enough cattle to survive. Small farms could do well raising chickens since it did not take as much land to raise chickens. So farmers built chicken houses, used the chicken litter to fertilize their land and could then raise more cattle on less land thanks to the lush grass that grew when fertilizer was applied. Farmers bring in a lot of business because of the need for farm equipment and feed stores. So even though the middle of town was somewhat of a relic, it had survived because many long-time residents of small towns do what they can to support the old, established businesses.
Walking down the side walk, Lily noted the large oak trees that were in each yard and shaded the walkway. The houses had to be at least fifty to sixty years old but most had been well maintained. A few of the large homes had the sad, shabby appearance of being empty. Some of the shingles were missing, some of the paint was peeling, some windows were broken and the porches were sagging. Lily felt it was a shame that majestic homes, which represented a time long gone, were in such disrepair. Lily felt as though she were walking down a fairy tale street, as if she had stepped back in time. She wished she had lived in that period of time and that her life was normal or close to what she thought normal should be. Nice homes, with father, mother and children all happy, doing normal things would be on her wish list and she knew that she would never know that life except for seeing it in the movies. She felt her past had caused her to be damaged.
Lily almost missed the house she was looking for because she was day dreaming, so she had to back pedal a little to find it. There was a black metal fence around the house with a small gate at the front. She opened the gate and slowly walked up the walk, marveling at the beautiful, old house. It was three stories high with a wide porch across the front. There were large, round columns supporting the porch and there were rocking chairs all across the porch with a porch swing on one end. Lily could imagine everyone sitting on the porch after supper just discussing the weather. Lily knocked on the huge front door and waited patiently.
A petite, pretty lady in her mid-forties, answered the door, and said, "Hello, may I help you?"
Lily said, "I was told by the lady at the depot that you might have a room to rent."
The lady responded, "Yes, we do have rooms or they are actually efficiency apartments. Come in and we can discuss this."
Lily followed the lady into the house and noted a big entry way with a two story foyer with a beautiful chandelier hanging in the center of the hall. She saw a staircase was on her left and an opening on the right leading to a room that was used as an office. In the prime of life for this home, this room had probably been the front parlor. The office was furnished with heavy old furniture with a huge oak desk placed in the middle of the room. The lady went behind the desk and motioned for Lily to sit. "My name is Elizabeth Bristow, I am the manager here. We have five different units in this house. Each room has its own bathroom, kitchenette, queen size bed, TV and some living room furniture. We serve the evening meal in the dining room every night but Sunday night. This is included in the monthly rent. I assume you want to be here for at least a month?"
Lily responded, "Yes, I plan to find a job and stay here for a while until I get on my feet and become more familiar with the area."
"Good," Elizabeth said, "We do have a vacancy. I'm not being nosy, but what do you do for a living or what would you like to do?"
Lily smiled, "I went to college in California. I just finished law school and passed the bar exam. I will be looking for something in law."
Elizabeth was a little startled at this information but said, "We don't have any women lawyers in our town at this time. I'm sure a change won't hurt us at all. It may even shake up the "good ole boys" that have been around forever." She laughed and continued, "I, for one, am thrilled to have someone so young and educated move to our town."
Lily smiled and Elizabeth got back to business, "We do ask that you do not have guest overnight; but other than that you can do as you wish. We don't wash your personal laundry but we pick up your linens weekly and wash them for you. I require a month's rent and one extra for a deposit which you will get back when you leave if nothing is damaged."
"That sounds very good. Is there a used car lot near here?" Lily asked.
"Yes, just a few blocks away, stop by here when you are ready to go and I will give you the name and some directions. We do have a cab company in town if you need transportation until you get a car. I hope you enjoy your stay with us and if you have any questions, please, let me know." Elizabeth pulled out an application and gave it to Lily to fill out. Lily filled out the application and Elizabeth gave her a key. "Your room is the first one on the left at the top of the stair."
Lily got the money out of her purse and gave it and the application to Elizabeth. She took the key and said, "Thank you so much. I'll stop by when I get ready to look for a car."
Lily went out of the office and up the stairs. At the top of the stairs, she noted the room and unlocked the door. Entering the room she was pleasantly surprised to find a very nice, clean room. There were two overstuffed chairs to the left of the door that faced a portable television set. A small kitchenette was along the far wall. There were a few cabinets, a sink, a small refrigerator, a microwave and a small table with two chairs. On the far side of the kitchenette, was a queen size bed made up with a beautiful comforter set. There was a small chest of drawers, a night stand and a closet. There was a door beside the bed that led to a clean, small bathroom. Lily thought she could live here very well, and the thought passed through her mind that this was far better than anything she had lived in during her life. In college, she usually had a room in a house where several women and a few men lived. She had to share everything, wait in line for the bathroom, usually ended up cleaning more than anyone and there was never any silence. She always had to study in the library to be able to concentrate. She felt a sense of peace in this apartment and felt safe for the first time in a long time.
Lily set her suitcase down, put her purse on the floor and sat in the nearest chair. She was exhausted. There was a window unit air conditioner in the living area and the room was very cool. Lily laid her head back on the back of the chair and sighed deeply. She closed her eyes and began to drift. Out of the deep shadows of her mind, Lily went back as far as she could remember which was around five years old but these memories were sketchy. When she was six she started to school. She did have happy memories of school and she loved to learn especially when she excelled and she was given special recognition by her teachers. At least in school she felt noticed.
As she recalled her home life, Lily remembered a shabby, two bedroom house. The front screen door and the front steps were broken. She remembered this as she had fallen on the broken steps and her mom had forbidden her from going out the front door again. Thinking of her mother made Lily sad. She knew she should love her mother, as everyone loves their mother, right? And she did love her, but this love was so smothered with a sad history that she could not even say out loud that she loved her. She also knew she needed forgiveness for the things she would like to forget that she had done in her life.
At five years old, Lily thought her mother, Jane, was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen. Jane was an attractive woman; slim with a good figure, with shoulder length black hair and she had the most unusual, startling emerald green eyes. Lily favored her mother as she was a beautiful child with black hair and she had inherited the same amazing eyes. Lily remembered asking if anyone else in the family had their eye color. Jane got a sad look on her face and to Lily's surprise spoke quietly to her saying, "Lily, your grandmother, Bess, has these eyes. However, that's all I got from her as she is a wonderful lady and I sure as hell am not any of those things." Lily tried many times to get more information about her grandparents, especially since her grandmother was still alive. However, Jane would not talk about it anymore and told Lily to go to her room.
Jane was not a good housekeeper even though she was home all day. What Jane liked to do was drink liquor and smoke cigarettes. Lily had seen her mother sitting at the kitchen table for hours, with smoke circling her head and a drink on the table. Jane had a trust fund that she could draw from that was set up by her father. This money allowed her to stay at home and not work, but there were strings attached to the money from this fund. For some reason, even though she was able to stay at home to care for Lily, she appeared to not really be interested in Lily and always had a far-away look in her eyes. Many times when they were in the room together, Lily would have to call her mother several times before she would respond. Jane never hugged Lily but just went through the motions of a caretaker. Lily was very lonely and wondered what was wrong with her for her mother to not love her. The fact that Jane never told Lily she loved her, made her feel detached and alone.
Jane never said much about Lily's dad, so Lily did not know anything about him. She would tell Lily her dad had been in the army and was killed overseas. This was one of the lies that Lily told as the truth to anyone who ask, because she didn't know any better.
Jane enjoyed the night life which caused her to have to arrange some alternative care for Lily. Most of time, she would leave Lily with the neighbor whom Lily adored. Lily called the neighbor Granny and would have loved to have her as her real grandmother. Granny played with her, held her and read her books. When Lily was at Granny's house, she felt safe and for a brief time, felt like a normal child. After school Lily would run to Granny's house to relay all the days' events and snack on what Granny had made that day especially for her. Granny never said anything negative about Jane nor asked where she was going. She was afraid that if she made Jane angry, Jane would stop letting Lily come over. Lily was the light of Granny's life and made the days a lot less lonely for both of them.
Granny could tell that Jane had problems. She felt that addiction to alcohol was one of the major issues. Granny also had a feeling Jane had some mental problems. She had witnessed Jane being chatty and up beat then other times she was so depressed she could hardly talk. Granny just told Lily that anytime she needed company, she could come over to her house, whether it was day or night. She knew she could not solve Jane's problems, but at least she could make a safe haven for Lily.
Jane had several men that she dated but none of them lasted very long, especially when they learned Jane had a child. Men, or the kind of men Jane met, were not crazy about a ready-made family. Jane dressed in very sexy clothes and attracted men easily, but there was something odd about her personality. You really couldn't put your finger on it but she seemed to be false, it appeared she was playing a part in a movie. So even though she attracted men, they soon moved on. This was fine with Lily because she liked it to be her and Jane. Lily thought if she was really good and continued to work hard, Jane would come to love her soon. Of course maybe Jane did love her but just didn't know how to show her love for her daughter. There was always a chance that Jane would learn how to be a loving mother over time.
Everything was going along normally, as far as Lily was concerned, when Jake Henson came into their life. That's when everything changed. Life as Lily knew it was about to change and the events would have a long lasting effect on her and Jane.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

The Oklahoma City Zoo announced some BIG news Tuesday; ultrasound images have determined 18-year-old Asian elephant Asha is seven months pregnant.
Officials with the zoo say the average gestation for an elephant is 22 months which brings Asha's due date to December 2014.
Dr. Jennifer D'Agostino, director of veterinary services, said the staff is cautiously optimistic because Asha is still early in her pregnancy.
"We will focus on giving Asha the best prenatal care possible, with carefully monitored nutrition, exercise and regular check-ups through ultrasounds and blood work," D'Agostino said.
Asha gave birth to her first calf, Malee, in 2011. The father-to-be, Rex, came to the Oklahoma City Zoo in December 2011. Rex has previously sired five calves.
The Oklahoma City Zoo recently announced the birth of a baby giraffe. The female giraffe was born Sept. 26 and already stands six feet tall.

Booya season is here: We talk to a master of the mystery stew
It sounds like something a frat boy would yell out after drinking from a beer bong, but a booya is much more than an exclamation of hard partying. Minnesotans can't claim many foods as their own (well, booya is shared with a small part of Wisconsin), but the dish does have its roots in our state. The wordbooya
has a bit of a double meaning, referring to both the party and the stew that is served at it. Happening mainly in the St. Paul-East Metro region, booya is a gathering of folks, often held for fundraising purposes, that includes a giant pot--anywhere from 30 to 100 gallons-- filled with a stew that is slow-cooked with a medley of items--corn, tomatoes, carrots, cabbage, lima beans, stew meat, an oxtail (if you have it, throw it in!)--seasoned with each chef's mystery spices, and served with crispy saltines. Since fall is the time for booya, we wanted to fill you in on few that are coming up--especially this weekend's World Championship Booya Cookoff on Saturday in South St. Paul. The Hot Dish spoke with the World Championship Booya Cookoff's founder, Walt Books, who gave us a schooling in all things booya.
It's time to booya.
How long have you been running the booya championship? I have been doing this since 1982, so about 28 years. The first year we had 12 cooks. This started as an endeavor to draw people into South St. Paul. It's a great city, and this is a one-of-a-kind happening. Back in 1988 I had calls from New York, Houston, and L.A. asking what it was all about and wanting recipes. The Washington Post wrote about it in 1984--I have the article under glass so we won't lose it. I want to start with booya and build from there, have South St. Paul steaks, fudge, popcorn--you name it. Think of it, Wall Drug started as just a drugstore, and then the idea spread and grew.
How much booya is typically served at your event? This year we will have about 420 gallons by six cooks.
What do you look for in a winning booya?
This year the Winter Carnival people are judging. Mostly, we look for booya judges that are not booya cooks. We like to find someone who has never eaten booya. The reason is that everyone who makes booya thinks theirs is the best, or their grandpa's is the best. This way, they are not comparing the contestants to what they've eaten before.
How long does booya cook?
Twelve to fourteen hours. The cooks start on Friday night and cook all night long. It's very labor oriented. Some have a few kanoopers! They are cooking and smelling their booya pots, making sure their dog is all right so it doesn't end up in someone's booya pot. I'm just kidding, you know.
Anything else you want to share?
I am 78 years old now, and I had hoped someday we would find a way to can and sell booya, but that didn't work. Next in line is to make South St. Paul the Booya Capital of the World. You can compare this event to the Super Bowl or to the Master's Golf Tournament--this is the Super Bowl of Booya and the Master's of Booya.

Red Hat may have patched util-linux or e2fsprogs with specific patches and/or compiled with customized options to make it work. Alternately, if you manually installed util-linux, you may need to get the mount (2.11g) RPM from rawhide, as Red Hat splits it out from util-linux, and adds several patches, including one that appears to add the -O option.

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
"We will all be judged one day, not by each other's standards, or even our own, but by the judgment of God … it is to God alone that we shall have to answer for our actions." Romans 14:10, 13 (PH)
Give to the Earthquake Relief Efforts in Japan
If something is not your responsibility, why should God talk to you about it? Wouldn't he just talk directly to the person it concerns? This is the fifth test to consider when you wonder if an idea or impression you have comes from God – "Does it concern your responsibility?"
In John 21, Jesus told Peter that he would die a martyr's death. Peter's response was to glance at John, who was standing nearby, and ask Jesus, "Lord, what about him?" (John 21:21 NIV). Peter wasn't satisfied with God telling him what was going to happen in his life. He wanted to know about John's future as well.
Jesus responded by saying, "If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? You must follow me" (John 21:22 NIV).
"What is that to you?" My wife, Kay, calls that the WITTY principle. We get ourselves in so much trouble when we start comparing ourselves to others. But when we do this, God says, "What is that to you?" He wants our focus to be following him, not worrying about other people.
Have you ever heard someone say, "God told me to tell you"? My response to that is, "Are you sure about that?" All believers have a direct line to God. And God doesn't have to tell someone else to tell you. He can talk to you directly.
Now, does God ever speak to others through another person? Of course he does. But there are three guidelines you need to follow if feel God is using you to speak to someone else.
--- --- --- ---
God created you for an adventure of trust. Learn how to follow the God who deeply loves you: Say Yes To God: A Call To Courageous Surrender by Kay Warren.
Kay, along with Tom Holladay, also teaches you to see life from God's perspective: Foundations is a comprehensive tool for teaching the essential truths of Christian faith in a simple, systematic, and life-changing way. The 24 sessions take believers on a thought provoking, life-changing exploration of 11 core doctrines: The Bible, God, Jesus, The Holy Spirit, Creation, Salvation, Sanctification, Good and Evil, The Afterlife, The Church, and The Second Coming.
The Bible says very clearly that you were created for connections. In this new message series, Connecting with God: The Lord's Prayer, Rick Warren lays out practical steps for you to connect with God and loved ones by examining the Lord's Prayer.
The Lords Prayer is one of the most well-known prayers in the Bible. It's also one of the richest, filled with hope and answers to life's most stressful situations and difficult questions. Join Pastor Rick as he mines each verse of The Lords Prayer, both uncovering God's wisdom and discovering what it truly means to be spiritually connected to God and to one another. Your life will forever be transformed.

It's time for change... Parking change. Tuesday, the City Parking Administration and Downtown Partnership outlined their proposal to increase parking fees to Colorado Springs City Council members. The proposal would increase hourly rates to $1.00 in downtown's core parking meters and $0.75 cents in outlining meters. At present, both charge $0.50 an hour. The proposal would also increase the maximum fee for off-street parking from $4.50 a day to $6.75. But say many downtown patrons, change is never easy.
"It's just the kind of think that pushes you away," said patron Victor Restrepo. "If you don't have a dollar in change, then what do you do?"
But supporters of the hike contend the increase would actually help eliminate that problem by funding a debit card feature in the meters.
"This will allow people to purchase a reloadable debit card for meters," said City Parking Administrator Greg Warnke. "It would give downtown business the opportunity to validate parking at meters."
Still, some downtown business say that won't matter if the rate hikes scare customers away first.
"Rent is already high in downtown," said Everest Nepal Restaurant owner Jiban Shrestsa. "You add the parking meter increase and it's hard to do business."
The City Council moved to postpone a decision on the meter hike until May 9, at which time they'll hear a more detailed description of the proposal. Pending Council's approval, supporters say the increase could take effect July 1. The fee hike is also proposed for Old Colorado City, but council members balked at the idea, saying that area would not receive any revenue benefits.

Open House at Haskell Playhouse
Come and take a tour of this historic playhouse the 2nd Saturday of every month. This playhouse was built by Dr. and Mrs. William Haskell for their five year old daughter Lucy. It is a rare architectural gem containing many of the flamboyant elements of the Queen Anne style: cartwheels, brackets, spires, diagonal sticking, fish scale shingles and stained glass windows. It's importance is magnified because so few of these accessory structures for children have survived. The playhouse contains a single room, front porch and side porch. The interior has been restored and the playhouse is open for special occasions. The playhouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
