Brewers beat D-backs 5-1 to end slide at 4 games
Submitted: 07/14/2013
Story By Associated Press
- Wily Peralta pitched seven effective innings, Logan Schafer homered and drove in two runs and the Milwaukee Brewers ended a four-game losing streak by beating the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-1 on Sunday.
Arizona won the first three games of the series, mostly by coming from behind.
The Brewers prevented the sweep by roughing up Ian Kennedy (3-6) early with a string of two-strike hits and a second straight strong outing by Peralta (7-9)
Carlos Gomez hit a two-run single in the first inning and Jean Segura had three hits for Milwaukee, which ended a six-game losing streak to the Diamondbacks.
Miguel Montero homered for the second straight game, but Kennedy gave up four runs in the first two innings to remain stuck on 49 career wins for the seventh straight start.

Brush Run fans, racers tough out weekend's bad storms
Submitted: 06/26/2016

- Pounding rain, howling winds, and flashing lightning�"not the most ideal conditions for camping on Saturday night.
In fact, Saturday night's bad weather couldn't have picked a worse time for thousands of people to set up camp at the Crandon Race Track.
"We were holding onto the awning last night," said Keegan Kincaid, a racer from Crandon. ."It was pouring."
"Our canopy [got] rained [on] so much we had to keep pushing it up so it wouldn't collapse," said Paul Posbrig, a fan from Green Bay.
"It was coming in all over," said Jessie Braden, a fan from Richfield.
But for Crandon fans, the rain certainly didn't dampen the weekend.
"But we made the best of it," said Braden, who comes to Crandon every summer for the Brush Run.
"We had a canopy at one point and put up tarps on the walls as we got downpoured on and it was all windy," Braden said. "If we're going camping, it's going to rain!"
The fans also got their fair share of noise because the rain didn't really affect the race schedule.
"We just had to wait a little bit longer before we could put crews out on the track," said the raceway's announcer, Dave Mullins. "So needed it to dry off a little bit first. But really it was only about a half hour."
But it certainly changed the racers' strategy.
"And so you'll see a lot of changes in trucks and driving styles," Kincaid said.
"Figure out the track, sort out where the grip is, where it's wet, where it's dry," said Arie Luyendyk, Jr., a racer from Arizona.
But Crandon's track is pretty resilient.
"Most tracks we wouldn't be able to race on it the next day, but Crandon has a lot of clay," Kincaid said.
"Because this is a clay track, it doesn't absorb the water as much, it makes it more like a mud pit," Mullins said.
Sunday's nice weather quickly brought the track's conditions back to normal.
"I thought we were going to be racing in the mud, but turns out because of the sun and wind we're actually going back to our setup we had yesterday," Luyendyk, Jr., said.

Submitted: 06/25/2016

Several different agencies responded, including Canadian National Railroad investigators.
Crews took the man to St. Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield, and they took the woman to Aspirus Hospital in Wausau where she later died.
Police are still investigating and will not yet release the names.

Newman was the catalyst in Arizona State taking two of three on its road trip at Auburn. The Phoenix, Ariz., native went 5-for-11 (.455) and slugged an amazing 1.182. He belted two home runs in the 9-5 win on Saturday, driving in four runs. He also doubled twice in the series, added another RBI on Sunday and scored four times. In addition, Newman twice laid down perfect sacrifice bunts to move runners into scoring position.
This marks the first Pac-10 Player of the Week honor for Newman and Arizona State's 97th all-time Player of the Week selection.


text: Aug 23, 2014 00:31 Miles: Players shine in LSU's first full fall scrimmage Miles: Players shine in LSU's first full fall scrimmage Ross Dellenger| firstname.lastname@example.com Aug. 16, 2014; 4:00 p.m. Comments LSU conducted its first full fall scrimmage Saturday in Tiger Stadium. The scrimmage was closed to reporters and the public.Coach Les Miles met with reporters following the event to discuss the 120-play scrimmage: - LSU freshman running back Leonard Fournette had a "long" run on a broken play. The coach would not reveal how many total yards Fournette ran for during the scrimmage and on the play. - Miles also kept secret each quarterback's stats. Three touchdowns and one interception were thrown. The pick was caught by redshirt freshman safety Austin Suits during a two-minute drill. - Miles said the quarterbacks "both played well" and that LSU threw the ball 40-45 times. Miles says he "admires" how Anthony Jennings and Brandon Harris are handling the tight competition for the starting job. - The QBs wore green no-contact jerseys as they have all fall camp and did not run much. They will not run during preseason practice. "Too close to the game," the coach said. - Nine different receivers caught passes. Freshman Trey Quinn caught "four to five passes," Miles said. "He had a really nice scrimmage." Quinn carried the ball from the I-formation, Miles also said. Coaches are using Quinn throughout the field. - Freshman receiver Malachi Dupre did not participate in the scrimmage. He's missed several practices during fall camp while "nicked up." - Each of the four scholarship running backs on the roster received about 14 carries apiece. Miles did not reveal yardage. - On defense, defensive end Danielle Hunter led the way with nine tackles, four for loss. Miles mentioned cornerback Rashard Robinson and LSU's linebackers as having solid scrimmages. - Miles took the ice bucket challenge for ALS. He challenged his four coordinators: recruiting coordinator Frank Wilson, defensive coordinator John Chavis, offensive coordinator Cam Cameron and special team coordinator Bradley Dale Peveto. - Defensive tackle Quentin Thomas did not participate in Saturday's scrimmage, but he's expected to play in LSU's next scrimmage on Tuesday. Miles called it the "Wisconsin scrimmage." Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

Rated 4 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by design on a dime I love my ottoman. I love my ottoman. My color scheme is dark brown, gold, cream, and bamboo green. It is a little more on the seagreen side but it blends in ok. It really is a chic piece to add to my family room. It's also real convenient for additional seating. January 31, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by Ang color not as shown Great quality ottoman - however, the color is actually a seafoam type color NOT the wonderful deep green shown here. Very disappointed since that was what I was looking for. September 16, 2010
Rated 3 out of 5 by Tasha1812 Color is not as show This ottoman is great. Perfect size, looks good, etc. However, the color is definitely not as shown. It's like a very light mint - almost pastel. Definitely will be returning :( November 4, 2014

The sight of these vividly colored red and white apples stopped me in my tracks yesterday while shopping the Harmons at City Creek. They were so striking, they reminded me of the witch's apples in Snow White.
And the flesh is paper white, as I found out the minute I'd paid for one and taken a bite.
There are hundreds of varieties of apple, so it's not that surprising that I wasn't familar with Akane. I bought a bunch and I Googled them. Turns out Akane is a cross between a Jonathon and Worcester Pearmin, so it's known as an excellent dessert apple.
I like the small size of it–I'll leave the Hugi Fugi's to larger mouths–and although it's supposed to be a great cooking apple, i loved its tartness and fragrance for eating out of hand. Supposedly, Akanes don't store well, but I doubt we'll have a chance to test that.
The Downtown Farmers Market will continue into October, and the additional Tuesday night Harvest Market is going strong. That's still the best place to buy produce, but it's nice to see that Harmons supports local growers, too. These Akane apples were grown in Orem.

I'm 45 now, but not too long ago I graduated from Harvard Business School (okay, it was 16 years ago, but it feels like yesterday!). I was on the business fast-track selling designer water to supermodels at Fashion Week in New York City. But when I got married and was expecting my first baby, I realized the corporate mommy-track was not for me. What's a smart, successful, driven MBA to do when (3) babies arrive? I had absolutely no clue, but I knew one thing: I could no longer go into an office and pretend that $5 bottles of water were the most important thing in my day. I wanted to find something I could be passionate about, but do it from home around a flexible schedule.
So I decided to create a my own "Passion Journal"... this was my own version of a "food diary" when you go on a diet and write down everything you eat each day for a week. Except in my passion journal, I wrote down everything I DID each day, from the mundane (brush teeth, grocery shop) to the profound (read book to baby, kiss my husband), and I'd rank each action on a scale of 1 to 5 stars. One star meant "boring/blah" and 5 stars meant "I'm super-passionate about this!" It was a fantastic experience to help me understand what revs my engine, and at the end of the week, surprisingly there were only 3 actions that rated 5 stars: drinking my strong tea in the morning, kissing my husband, and talking to a 41-year old single friend of mine who was struggling to find Mr. Right. The first two actions didn't seem like potential candidates for a new career, but the third one was the charm. I loved the excitement I felt that week as I told my single friend how to meet men. I was on the phone with her pacing the floor as we spoke, gesturing my arms wildly as I told her "don't do that!" and "do more of this!" I realized my dating tips were the same strategies I used every day in the business world, centering around branding, packaging, and niche marketing.
Fast forward to my friend's wedding a year later (my first success story), and my matchmaking business was born! Since turning 40, I am responsible for 712 marriages, my dating advice books now include a NY Times bestseller and are translated into 19 languages. I've been on the Today Show 4 times, plus CNN, Nightline, Fox News, ABC News, NPR, and much more. I even starred in a British reality TV dating show! I think I'm the first Harvard MBA to enter the "love business" (the Harvard Alumni Magazine profiled me in a recent issue). I am IN LOVE with what I do, my schedule is 100% flexible, and I can safely say this was a very unexpected 2nd act.

Filmmaker Roger Ross Williams, the first African-American to win an Oscar for directing and producing a film, is adding to the buzz of his documentary "God Loves Uganda" with an Op-Doc video on The New York Times website. Williams writes:
The American evangelical movement in Africa does valuable work in helping the poor. But as you'll see in this Op-Doc video, some of their efforts and money feed a dangerous ideology that seeks to demonize L.G.B.T. people and intensifies religious rhetoric until it results in violence. It is important for American congregations to hold their churches accountable for what their money does in Africa.
The "dangerous ideology" he refers to is the imposition of Biblical law in Africa that includes undermining condom programs to fight HIV in favor of abstinence and the criminalization of homosexuality. We posted a review of "God Loves Uganda" here.

Klitschko's Kiev
Sure, world champion boxer Vladimir Klitschko lives in Hamburg, Germany, in Florida, USA, and also in the air, he says. But his heart swells with joy when he sets foot in Kiev. He sees a city where the future grapples with the past and feels the compunction to help wherever he can – and also to revisit his favorite spots again and again
Back to the overview
The last wave of sultry summer weather hangs heavy in the streets. This place is hot – and that's not just because the girls wear their skirts outrageously short. Kiev is wearing a smile and the big man is beaming.
"I am Vladimir," says Vladimir, shaking your hand and, fortunately, releasing it in one piece. He is a friendly person. If you ever thought that boxers were bloodthirsty dimwits who would
happily pummel you into a coma, today is the day you learn otherwise.
Read more
Dr. Steelhammer knocks out the past
What a story! Back in 2004, Vladimir Klitschko stood on Independence Square and told 200 000 protesters: "The people decide and no one else!"
A river that is often the city's sea of tranquility: Vladimir used to swim in the Dnepr as a boy. "I love this river," he says, "the pace of life in Kiev is less hurried because of it." In some places the banks are so far apart it has earned itself the nickname "Kiev Sea."
Two fists and a hallelujah:
"I used to be a communist, my faith came later. Marx described religion as the opium of the people," says Vladimir Klitschko. He helped to rebuild St. Michael's Abbey.
Tradition & modernity
"Kiev is moving forward very, very fast now." says Vladimir. But even if one skyscraper follows the next, there are still many places in Kiev where the old Ukraine is alive and well, as anyone will discover who takes the trouble to look – for example here at the souvenir market.
When the locals feel like demonstrating their great desire for freedom, they may sometimes do so in very different ways, for instance by strolling down the Chreshtshatik, which has a wonderful southern atmosphere – especially in the evening.
Not light, but delicious – that's how connoisseurs describe Ukrainian cuisine. Vladimir Klitschko enjoys inviting his friends out to dinner on the Khutoroko restaurant boat, where he invites them to enjoy borsht, kwas and blinis.

Finally, a movie that REALLY showcases Kristen Bell's acting chops. Bell displays a broad range of emotions which she can turn on with just a facial expression while driving.
In The Lifeguard, she plays Leigh, a 29-year-old Associated Press reporter who quits her life in NYC to move in with mom and dad. And just like high school, she gets a job as a lifeguard and hangs out with old friends Mel (Mamie Gummer) and Todd (Martin Starr). Leigh smokes pot, goes reckless driving and befriends a group of skateboarders.
Reliving youth goes too far, especially for many in the theater, when Leigh starts a new relationship. We don't want to give it away here, but writer/director Liz Garcia says she made it happen because both characters were on the same emotional level. When you think about it that way, it makes sense. And if you're still uncomfortable, you're not alone, since one character is even more disturbed by it. The question you're asking all through the film is "When is Leigh's adult life going catch up to her?" It sends a strong message to all of us who wish we could quit our jobs and be free of our self-made traps.
Garcia was actually a lifeguard as a teen, which served as inspiration. "And I loved every moment by the pool, being lazy," she says. You'll also notice that Leigh loves cats, which is another trait Garcia shares with her. Garcia's husband Joshua Harto plays Mel's husband John in the movie. "To have your wife directing you to take your pants off in front of another woman is unusual," he jokes.
One of the most important roles is Little Jason (David Lambert), which was the only one cast with a conventional audition. Garcia says the 18-year-old actor has the right look, and at different angles, could appear older or younger than he is. Lambert gave a great performance in this film.
The music, composed by Fred Avril, really sets the tone during tense, disturbing scenes. But it's not all drama. The photography throughout the film is incredible, as hang outs, memories and even the sky is captured through an almost nostalgic lens. It's also witty. When Leigh arrives at her parents' home, her mother tells her "If you're going to stay here, you have to contribute." Leigh replies, "To what?" When Leigh's friend Mel says she's trying to get pregnant, Leigh replies, "Like … with a human baby?"
One problem is you don't see much of the life Leigh leaves behind, just that she is in a relationship headed south and covers an emotionally-challenging news story. But her reasons for leaving don't seem to add up, at least not enough to give up and move home.
Still, it's a great drama. And even though it might not seem like it, the scene in the photo above is just as drama in the movie reaches an all-time high.

Pecotic Reaches 20 Straight Ivy Match Victories in @PtonMensTennis Win
Princeton senior Matija Pecotic won his 20th straight Ivy League singles match Sunday, helping the Tigers complete a 5-2 win over Dartmouth at the Lenz Tennis Center.
"It was a good bounce back for us today after the tough loss yesterday," Princeton head coach Billy Pate said, referring to the team's 5-2 loss to Harvard, the Ivy's last league-undefeated team. "Our guys did a great job once we were able to get through the doubles. Our job now is to have a good final weekend of preparation for Cornell away and Columbia at home to wrap up. These matches are crucial for us in terms of NCAA selections and of course the Ivy League race."
Pecotic, the two-time defending Ivy League Player of the Year, went undefeated each of the last two years in Ivy singles play after winning his final match as a freshman and is two wins away from going undefeated for a third straight season.
Pecotic was one of four Tigers to win a singles match Sunday, along with Matt Spindler, Dan Richardson and Jonathan Carcione, and he and Zack McCourt, along with Augie Bloom and Matt Siow, helped secure the doubles point.
Heading into Princeton's final weekend of regular-season play, the Tigers are one match behind Harvard, which won 4-3 at Penn Sunday. Princeton will close out its regular season at home againts Columbia next Sunday after playing at Cornell next Friday. Harvard will host Brown and travel to Yale next weekend before visiting Dartmouth on April 27.

No ordinary time
Ed Asner's portrayal of FDR resonates for a new age
By Jenny Lower 03/07/2013
Ed Asner was a sophomore in high school when Franklin Delano Roosevelt died. The four-term president had held the post of commander in chief for most of Asner's life. When he finally succumbed to a stroke in April 1945 — often considered to have been brought on by stress from leading the allied effort in World War II, — less than a month before VE Day. "It was like God the Father had been taken away."
The former television star, who won seven Emmys for his portrayal of a gruff newsman on The Mary Tyler Moore Show and its spinoff drama Lou Grant, portrays the 32nd president in a special performance at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza on March 10. Asner recently had minor surgery for a clogged artery and, at 83, is two decades older than FDR was at the time of his death.
The one-man show is based on Sunrise at Campobello, a 1958 Tony-winning Broadway play penned by Dore Schary, the Hollywood producer. This version focuses on the Depression and the events leading up to World War II, FDR's affair with his mistress Lucy Mercer, and controversies over his efforts to stack the Supreme Court to protect his progressive agenda.
Despite spending much of his adult life in a wheelchair, the charismatic 32nd president was "an Adonis" — a quality Asner shares in spades, the actor jokes — Roosevelt the light-hearted prankster nevertheless "liked to keep his counsel until the very end. So he took [advice] from everybody, and rolled it around in his mind, then waited to see what he came up with."
With FDR's upper-crust New York accent imprinted on his memory from years of radio and news reels, Asner aimed to replicate the president's distinctive cadence onstage. "I certainly don't look like him, and I'm not a speech expert," says Asner. "I concentrated on delivering his ideas and his Rooseveltian manner. I begin with a voiceover, and I'm always amazed that it's me sounding like Roosevelt."
A former Screen Actors Guild president, Asner has become an outspoken political advocate. He opposes fracking, torture, the erosion of personal liberties, and has expressed concern for the impact the sequester crisis will have on poor families. He regards 9/11 as a conspiracy. In December, he angered conservatives by narrating an animated video for the California Federation of Teachers that criticized the wealthy for paying less than their fair share of taxes.
Asner sees several parallels between the New Deal era and our own. When the show originated three years ago, Obama was struggling through his first term. "I was hoping to perhaps ignite him to emulate Roosevelt more than he was," says Asner. In both cases, he explains, a Democratic president was dealing with a financial crisis precipitated by a Republican predecessor. But of the two men, "Obama has been less the statesman. He's a constitutional scholar, and he seems to have left that at home."
The current president would do well to take a few lessons from his predecessor, says Asner. "He needs to demonstrate more liberalism, and more obstinancy. Roosevelt would not have allowed the poor to be punished as Obama seems to be." FDR's great strengths, Asner says, lay in "his courage, his ability to look at the whole picture and make his move cautiously — but always make a move. He may have lost votes in Congress and the Supreme Court. But the vast majority of people came to approve and applaud his attempts.
"Roosevelt put out his desires to the people. He knew what the people needed and wanted, and he fought for it."
Ed Asner as FDR, March 10, 7:30 p.m. at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza, 2100 E. Thousand Oaks Blvd. 449-2700 or www.civicartsplaza.com.

Laser Skin Treatments
Brenda LaTowsky, MD, is a dermatologist on staff at Banner Thunderbird Medical Center in Glendale, Ariz.
Question: How do laser skin treatments work and what conditions are they appropriate for?
Answer: Many people are unaware of the many amazing things that lasers can do. Over the years, laser technologies have advanced in both safety and effectiveness in treating a variety of skin, pigment and vascular conditions. Different types of lasers have been developed to treat different conditions.
Lasers, which may be used individually or in combination, have been successful in detecting and treating a wide variety of conditions, such as acne and acne scars, surgical scars, sunspots, excessive hair, red stretch marks, and warts. Lasers are also commonly used in the removal of birthmarks and tattoos, as well as for the rejuvenation of wrinkled or sun damaged skin.
With the latest advancements in laser therapy, lasers can accurately pinpoint and treat affected areas without harming surrounding tissue. In treating skin conditions, lasers remove outer layers of skin until the damaged layers are gently stripped away. Once the new, unaffected layer of skin is revealed, the healing process can generate younger and healthier looking skin.
Vascular laser treatments for conditions such as rosacea, spider veins and hemangiomas, use intense light to destroy the blood vessels causing the problem spots, while leaving other surrounding tissues unharmed and intact.
While they are extremely effective, most laser treatments produce some amount of discomfort. The amount of pain depends on the device used, the condition being treated, and the aggressiveness of the treatment. To keep discomfort to a minimum, numbing cream, nerve blocks, injections of numbing medication and oral pain medications may be administered before the procedure.
It is important to know that the choice of laser, as well as treatment settings, need to be adjusted for individual patients based on their skin type, desired treatment results and amount of sun exposure. Therefore, prior to undergoing any type of laser procedure, it is essential that patients seek out a dermatologist with the proper education, training and experience necessary to administer laser therapy safely and effectively.

Rocket, Sounding, Project Farside
Project Far Side was a series of six low-cost, all-solid-fuel, four-stage, balloon-launched sounding rockets, each launched from a carrier 200 foot (62 m) diameter balloon, and built and used in 1957. When each balloon reached its maximum altitude of about 100,000 feet (30,480 m), the rockets fired through the balloon.
Each Far Side rocket carried a scientific payload of three to five pounds (1.4-2.3 kg) of instruments for measuring cosmic rays, electromagnetic radiations, interplanetary gases, and other phenomena. The maximum altitude reached by the Far Side rockets may have been 4,000 miles (6,440 km). This object was donated to the Smithsonian in 1965 by the Aeronutronics Division of the Ford Motor Co.

Early Returns
Construction begins this month on a $6.4 million project in Loveland, Colo.; more than half of which will be paid for by stimulus funds. The project involves the relocation of roads situated just 10 feet from interstate on/off ramps, which handle a tractor-trailer every 90 seconds. The nearby ramps are controlled by stop signs. "People mistakenly turn onto the off-ramp going the wrong way when they're trying to get onto the frontage road from Crossroads Boulevard," says Public Works Director Keith Reester.

Have you used, or do you plan to use, American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 funds to retain an AEC firm this year?
Mason, Ohio, was awarded $500,000 through the Ohio EPA's Water Pollution Control Loan Fund to use treated effluent from its wastewater treatment plant to irrigate a city park. "It was a good opportunity to demonstrate conservation and recycling," says Art Oliver, project coordinator in the public utilities department. Photo: City of Mason, Ohio
The big fourThe extra funding available for infrastructure through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 has had an impact on the type of projects using AEC firms.
Predictable slowdownUse of AEC firms declines after an overall nationwide drop in property and sales tax revenues.
Intended purposeSo far, the two sectors most targeted by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 are benefiting the most, according to our fifth annual survey of the use of AEC firms , and construction firms.

Five months into the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, it's too early to tell how much impact the legislation has had. But with some projects under way, managers and manufacturers alike hope this is the beginning of a revitalized construction industry and the economy as a whole.
According to our fifth annual survey of the use of architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) firms, only 19% of respondents plan to use stimulus funds to retain a firm this year. Departments that have received funds, though, are quickly accessing their consulting partners.
"We've done pretty well in the shark tank of stimulus funds," says Keith Reester, public works director of Loveland, Colo., which is slated to receive an average of $1,800/capita for a total of $8.9 million. He thought very carefully about how to position his successful request for $3 million through the Colorado DOT's Region 4 ARRA allocation.
"We didn't come to the table and say, 'Give us everything for this project,'" Reester says. "We were just looking for a partner to get us over the hump."
The "hump" is an interchange that had been designed, approved for $1.2 million in state transportation department grants, and for which $2.2 million in tax increment financing had been arranged. "We argued that we could leverage local dollars to fund a project that the state couldn't pay for itself."
Reester is one of the fortunate few whose projects were among the first to be approved. According to a May report by the U.S. House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, work had started on just 600 of the 2,901 highway and transit projects — valued at almost $10 billion — that had been put out for bid. By June, $53 million — or just 0.41% — of the U.S. DOT's $12.8 billion had actually been disbursed.
"Sales are about 25% below where they were this time last year, but we have seen an increase in the last few weeks," says Scott Fier, president of American Highway Products, which makes steel manhole and catch basin risers. Every state differs in how it allocates recovery money, and although the total amount of $787 billion sounds massive, the amount available for infrastructure isn't as impressive.
"There are freeways, bridges, municipal streets, light rail, airports, docks," he says. "You split up all the money, and it is so small. It's like putting out a house fire with one bucket of water.
"In one year Caltrans [the California DOT] operates on more than half of what was given to the entire nation in highway funding. You might be the lucky recipient of $200,000, but contractors get those jobs all the time. Every year we start getting busy at this time, so this is no different from any other year."
Some manufacturers expect a jump in sales by the end of the year, although Kim Paggioli hasn't seen one just yet. But the vice president of marketing and quality assurance for Hobas Pipe USA, which manufactures large-diameter pipes, expects sales of commodity products such as PVC pipe and other off-the-shelf supplies to be among the first product categories to rebound.

Tag, tax program could cost county $300,000, officials say
Published: Monday, May 27, 2013 at 1:30 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, May 24, 2013 at 3:22 p.m.
The state's new tag and tax combined program is supposed to save North Carolina counties money. Davidson County officials say the program's initial impact could cost the county hundreds of thousands of dollars.
For your information
@Data hed 12:• House Bill 1779, initially approved in 2005, calls for local N.C. Department of Motor Vehicles offices to collect property taxes when citizens renew their license plate tags. The measure was set to go into effect in 2008, then 2010, and is now expected to become active later this year.

House Bill 1779, initially approved in 2005, called for local N.C. Department of Motor Vehicles offices to collect property taxes when citizens renew their license plate tags. The measure was set to go into affect in 2008, then 2010, and is now expected to become active later this year.
Motor vehicle property taxes were previously collected by Davidson County government, which will still be responsible for pricing motor vehicle taxes.
However, as part of the new program, Davidson County will also be responsible for paying processing fees as well as transaction fees for patrons who use debit or credit cards to pay their bill. Those costs could top $300,000, said Joe Silver, Davidson County's tax administrator.
"Overall, percentage wise, we'll probably collect more after it's in place," Silver said. "But initially, I think it's going to have an impact on us."
Under the current method of billing and collecting, if a taxpayer uses a debit or credit card, those fees to use that card go against the taxpayer, Silver said.
Because the new program will require citizens to pay tag and property tax fees at the same time, most citizens' bills should be larger. Silver thinks that will lead to more people using debit or credit cards for payment.
"The majority of people are going to go down there with $30 in cash," Silver said. "Most of them are going to use a credit card. I feel there will be more people using debit and credit cards, of which we are going to pay the fees."
Becky Klass, owner and operator of the Department of Motor Vehicles License Plate Agency in Lexington, said new debit machines were recently installed in preparation for the program launch.
Klass said her employees will start collecting property taxes on new titles and dealer work in July. Workers will begin collecting taxes for all tag requests after Sept. 1, she said.
"It's just going to be additional work on us to collect the taxes," Klass said. "It's all going to be due at the same time, and that's going to be hard on people having to do the inspection, the renewal and having to pay the taxes all at one time. It's going to be easier on them as well to go to one place to do it all."
Klass said it will probably take about a year to enter county residents in the new system.
"I hope the public will work with us as it gets cleared up," Klass said.
Citizens can continue to pay and renew their registration online or through the mail, in addition to local license plate agencies.

One of the great things about the Sundance Film Festival's arrival each January (and some might argue, THE only great thing) is the preponderance of music that arrives in Utah that might otherwise pass us by.
The festival inevitably brings a bunch of Vegas resident DJs, and some hip-hop that would NEVER come to Zion. And some shows prove to be more memorable than the year's films. I remember seeing the Beastie Boys throw down at a party at Park City Mountain Resort (a MySpace party no less), but I can't remember any films from that same year.
This year, I imagine I'll mostly remember the Sound City party Friday night at Park City Live, featuring Dave Grohl and a bunch of guests from his documentary. That's just a prediction at this point, but I've seen Grohl play drums a few times in concert, and I'm counting on the fact he'll do the same as he collaborates with a lineup that includes John Fogerty, Stevie Nicks, his fellow Foo Fighters, former Nirvana bandmate Krist Novoselic, Rage Against The Machine's Brad Wilk, Fear's Lee Ving, Cheap Trick's Rick Nielsen and a few others.
That show sold out almost instantly, but there are several other music options still available for folks wanting a piece of the Sundance action. You don't need any credentials or passes for these shows, but you need a willingness to spend more than you might on the average concert.
Here are a few venues and Websites worth checking out to see if something is happening that might inspire you to join the frenzy in Park City, or in SLC.
Park City Live (formerly Harry O's), has a selection of DJs from the Wynn Resort in Vegas, like AfroJack on Sunday, and an appearance by 2Chainz on Monday, and Utah's own Neon Trees headlining on Wednesday, Jan. 23.
The Star Bar is reopening in time for Sundance with a diverse slate of rock, hip-hop and potential train wrecks (hello, Courtney Love!). If you ever wanted to see Tommy Lee play DJ, or hear "OPP" in person from Naughty By Nature, you'll want to check out the entire lineup of the Star Bar's Sundance offerings.
Downstairs is always a popular spot for DJ action, thanks to owner DJ Mom Jeans, and this year you can find the likes of Lil' Jon and DMX involved in the festivities. Go to the Ticketcake Website to check out Downstairs shows, as well as small shows all over Park City.
In Salt Lake City, a real treat comes courtesy of the Sundance Festival Cafe at the Beehive Tea Room, where you'll find an all-star slate of local talent including Mark Dago dropping rhymes, the Folka Dots bringing the delectable harmonies, and a stylistic smorgasbord on a nightly basis thanks to bands like Hot Club of Zion, Triggers & Slips, the Moth and the Flame and more. Visit the Beehive Tea Room's Website for the complete rundown of the free shows every night during the festival.

June 29, 2012 Scott Moss
On June 28, 2012, the United States Supreme Court largely upheld the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, or more commonly known as "ObamaCare," by ruling that the individual mandate was constitutional.
Reaction to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on ObamaCare
June 29 Scott Moss
On June 28, 2012, the United States Supreme Court largely upheld the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, or more commonly known as "ObamaCare," by ruling that the individual mandate was constitutional.
Scott Moss, a CU-Boulder law professor, says he was not surprised by the ruling upholding the individual mandate because during oral arguments the justices showed less skepticism towards the mandate as a tax law while questioning the mandate as a commerce law.
CUT 1 "All the skepticism that the various judges showed about the mandate as a commerce law did not include the same kind of expressed skepticism about the mandate as a tax law. (:11) And, in particular, that justices Kennedy and Roberts did not express the same skepticism that the mandate is a tax power than they did in their skepticism that it was a commerce power." (25)
Moss was a little surprised that Justice Roberts was the swing vote in this decision and not Justice Kennedy, who has shown over the course of his tenure that he doesn't always vote with the conservative block on the Court.
CUT 2 "Everybody always thought Kennedy and Roberts were the potential swings on this one. There was more reason to see Kennedy as a swing vote than Roberts. But I am a little surprised that even though I could have seen either or both Kennedy or Roberts going the other way, I would have thought Kennedy was more likely than Roberts. Not less likely." (:18)
Moss was also surprised that the Court ruled against the provision that would punish states by withholding funds because the state would not expand Medicaid to all individuals under 65 earning less then 133 percent of the poverty line, about $30,000 a year for a family of four.
CUT 3 "The court really has not aggressively reigned in Congresses' power to grant funding to the states that comes with strings attached. (11) So this is a more aggressive limitation than before. And I was particularly surprised that some of the center-left justices took that view as well." (:22)
According to a new Gallop Poll, as of June 29 Americans are evenly divided over the Court's decision, with 46 percent agreeing and 46 percent disagreeing. Along party lines, nearly 80 percent of the Democrats agreed while only 13 percent of Republican voters agreed with the decision with 45 percent of independents agreeing.

We should ask the Holy Spirit to give us an understanding of the value of the human person. The Spirit enables us to cry out, "Abba! Father!" The Spirit Himself gives witness with our spirit that we are children of God. Abortion, on the other hand, sees the human person as a disposable object. The Spirit of Truth likewise shows us the truth about our sins. In Him we come to understand the difference between good and evil. This works directly against the dynamics of the abortion movement, which identifies a moral evil as a "right." "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil."

Reviews for Molasses Oatmeal Chip Cookies
"I agree with everyone else that these are delicious. I'm not a big fan of molasses and when I was tasted the raw dough, I was a bit uncertain as to whether or not I'd like the finished product. But once baked, the molasses flavor is very subtle and gives the cookie that feeling of, "What's in this cookie that makes it different from other chocolate chip cookies?" The only thing I'd do differently is slightly flatten the cookies before baking. I rolled them into balls as instructed and when they were baked, they were mounded in the middle and flat on the edges. Still delicious, just not as eye-appealing."
"I got more than 18 cookies from the recipe...I'd would rather have smaller cookies. Mine turned out quite soft...were they supposed to?"
"These were so, so yummy! My whole family loved them!"
"First time we tried them, they reminded me of my favorite oatmeal sandwich cookie, but better. I sometimes substitute raisins or craisins with white chocolate chips. Yum!"
"This is definitely a favorite! It's very satisfying and the cinnamon and molasses really make it wonderful!"

The UT Arlington Libraries are sponsoring a new outreach and support program for students called "Paws for Finals." This program will allow students to interact with registered therapy dogs as a means of reducing the stress and anxiety that final exams can induce.
Studies have proved that petting a friendly dog reliably lowers blood pressure and stress-related hormones in the blood, slows the heart rate, regularizes breathing, and releases tension from muscles. These effects can be achieved after only 5 to 24 minutes of interaction with a cheerful pup.
Students (and faculty/staff) who need a study/work break filled with unconditional love are encouraged and invited to stop by the second floor of the Central Library at the Research Help Desk (north end of the building) December 1-9, 2012, from 10 AM to noon and from 2-4 PM (please check for daily schedule updates at http://libguides.uta.edu/paws). The UT Arlington Libraries are proud to partner with Paws With Partners registered therapy dog volunteer group [https://www.facebook.com/PetPartnerPawsWithPartners] for this program.

What do the Beatles, Beach Boys, Bill Haley, James Last, Jan and Dean, the Archies, the Dave Clark Five and REO Speedwagon have in common? They've all recorded Chuck Berry's "Rock & Roll Music." The Beach Boys even had a bigger hit with their 1976 version than Berry did with his own recording 19 years earlier. But only Berry could have created the song. "I wanted the lyrics to define every aspect of its being," he has written about the tune. They do, with his characteristic mix of enthusiasm and detached observation: a 30-year-old father of two in 1957, Berry was more objective about rock and roll – the music and the business – than his younger companions on the charts. A demo version, recorded five months before the released take, lacks what would become the opening verse, and in the chorus Berry sings, "if you wanna rock with me" – a verb later changed to "dance," probably for reasons of taste if not redundancy. Unusual for Berry, "Rock & Roll Music" contains no guitar solo. Instead, verses and choruses plow ahead, the witty product of an assured songwriter. Except for a break of mambo-styled rhythm mimicking the lyrics, "Rock & Roll Music" practices what it preaches. The cha-cha-cha ending is one final joke. The song gave further evidence of Chuck Berry's strengths as the Cole Porter of the soda shop. Chuck Berry will be honored by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum during the American Music Masters series in October 2012. Learn more about Berry's contributions to rock and roll in the Rock Hall's authoritative Chuck Berry biography.
