Post subject: Magic in a Jelly Jar by Sally Tyler Hayes
LinnieGayl's 10/6/11 review
This book was on my AAR Top 100 Ballot as well. I have reread it in the past, but not in the past deacade or so. My print copy is in a box as I don't have enough shelf space for all of the books I wanted to keep.
Sally Tyler Hayes was one of my auto-buy authors for a long time. I thought she had stopped writing as the last book of hers is from 2001. But it turns out she now writes under her actual name, Teresa Hill.
Harlequin Heartwarming published a revised version of the book in July 2011 as
Luke's Wish
in both print and digitally. From the author's blog
Dear Readers,
In case you didnt know, in another life, I wrote for Silhouette under a different name, Sally Tyler Hayes, and this book was originally published under that name, under the title Magic in a Jelly Jar.
It was a sweet, family story that has been re-edited to be even sweeter, which now means no love scenes and a few other changes for readers who want a kinder, gentler story. Its available now will be available now from Harlequin Heartwarming.
Personally, I do not like it when authors go back and rewrite/heavily revise prior books. I feel like they are somehow saying as a reader I am a fool by being a fan of the original work as the
is always
(but maybe that's just me). So, I wrote to Harlequin and was told they may reissue the original version of
Magic in a Jelly Jar
as one of the Harlequin Treasury titles, but it is not currently on the schedule. Personally, I will stick with my print copy of the original.
I do have a few of her Teresa Hill titles on my To Buy list as some of blurbs sound good. I am glad she hasn't stopped writing as I thought for so many years.

Strange that there is no love scenes. . . Not that I always have to have them but makes me wonder if she revised it for a different market. . . .
like the Inspirational/Christian.

It's not just you. This is one of my pet peeves as well. With rare exceptions (such as when Mary Jo Putney and Catherine Coulter revised and expanded early Regencies) I almost always prefer the original to the revised version.

Leigh, Harlequin Heartwarming is a new line, currently comprised of older books (some revised, as in this case), to meet what Harlequin has determined is a segment of the readership who wants sweet but not faith-centered (my mom was one of those, not *at all* interested in inspirational but also not a fan of any explicit sex. Yes, including scenes in my books, LOL).
So MIAJJ was revised specifically for that line, not for the inspirational market.

Post subject: Truly dislike publishers re-issuing books under new name
I can't say the number of times I've fallen for that.
"Updating" revising editing out the steam increasing the steam -- I'm singularly unimpressed. The only time I sometimes like a change to an orginal work is when an author re-releases a book that has reverted to her and she includes stuff that was edited out. But even then, sometimes it's best to just leave things be.

Members of the Wesley College men's basketball team and team managers visited a special needs class at Banneker Elementary School in Milford in December.
Wesley athletes participate in a variety of community service projects including a recent visit that involved hands-on activities and reading aloud to the students.
"Our Wesley basketball players were so excited with their day at Banneker Elementary School," said Mens Basketball Head Coach Jerry Kobasa. "Our players came back with so many beautiful stories to share with our other players. It was heartfelt and touching."

Cardinal Timothy Michael Dolan told more than 500 union members and labor leaders that "work is cooperation with God's plan for creation," when he celebrated Labor Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral on September 8. Union members served as readers, gift bearers and servers at the mass. Then, as they later marched down Fifth Ave. past the Cathedral for the annual Labor Day Parade, they and others were greeted by the Cardinal and Catholic Charities Executive Director Kevin Sullivan.
Cardinal Dolan's message recapped the recent Labor Day Statement released by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
"Work is more than a paycheck," the bishops wrote. "It helps raise our families, develop our potential, share in God's creation, and contribute to the common good.

The Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles launches an extension to the Parent's Supervised Driving Program, a new mobile app sponsored by Ford Motor Company, Road Ready.
"RoadReady eliminates the question of overestimated time and allows parents and teens to focus on driving skills, roadway conditions and enhanced experiences, while the app automatically and accurately tracks their time together," says DMV Director Jennifer Cohan.
The app tracks roadway types and weather conditions to encourage parents and teens to spend more time driving together in a variety of conditions. At any time throughout the supervised driving process, parents and teens can also export a printable driving log with a list of all of their supervised driving sessions. This log can be delivered to the teens Driver Education instructor in compliance with Delaware's GDL driving log requirements.
"The skills outlined in this guide and app are meant to help teens learn to be better drivers. It is one of the ways Ford works to help teens," said Steve Kenner, Global Director of Ford's Automotive Safety Office. "In addition to this program, Ford also offers Driving Skills for Life, which gives teens advanced real world training. Ford also offers MyKey technology, which gives parents options to help encourage safe driving behaviors even when the parents aren't in the car."

Photo Credit: MTV Iggy
Loyal fans flocked from far and wide to witness last night's spectacular show in San Francisco with K-pop sensation Taeyang. The Giant Step produced Music Experiment 2.0 show in partnership with MTV Iggy and Intel brought out music lovers from as far as Seoul, Mexico City, Miami, and Philadelphia, some of whom started lining up as early as 6AM.
Guests came dressed in all white on par with the night's theme, making for a luminous and picturesque evening. An awe-inspiring Taeyang played with his force of a band and elevated a packed room for a solid hour, then going on to graciously offer multiple encores. An immeasurably pleased crowd cheered, cried, gleefully sang word-for-word, and danced themselves away.
To thank Taeyang for his contribution in sharing Asian culture with the Bay Area, Mayor Evan Low of Campbell, California presented the star with a well-deserved certificate of recognition on behalf of Mayor Edwin Lee of San Francisco.
Following our massively successful Music Experiment 2.0 shows with Arcade Fire in LA, Empire of the Sun in NYC, and Disclosure in Boston, our show with Taeyang was the perfect cap to an unforgettable run. Hats off to the whole Music Experiment 2.0 crew!

There's suspicion in some quarters (OK, here at More) that Siri, the personal assistant on the iPhone, doesn't give women the same kind of answers she gives men.
So we conducted a completely unscientific experiment. One man (Mike), one woman (Samantha), two iPhones.
Mike kicked it off by asking,"Where are my socks?" Siri's answer: "I don't know you." When Samantha asked the same question, she got the same answer. But it's meaningless because women don't lose their socks. And if they do, they don't ask for help in finding them.
Then Samantha asked Siri, "Where's my G-spot?" Siri's answer: "LG Auto Corner Spot," which she helpfully pointed out was just 6.6 miles away. Mike also got that answer—and discreetly noted the address.
Mike then presented Siri with the classic cri de coeur: "My wife doesn't understand me." Siri responded, "I don't understand." This was clearly programmed by a man (any woman would have typed in something approximating an eye roll). "I don't understand" opens the door to further soul baring, the kind of soul baring that leads to sock searching.
Finally, Samantha said, "Sing me a song!" Siri responded with "Daisy, Daisy!" That was not programmed by a man, because no guy would pick an 1892 ditty rather than something like "Unchained Melody," sung off-key, in the shower.
Our conclusion: Siri may not be sexist, but as an assistant, she's downright clueless.
Editor's note: In our September issue, we examined (but not too seriously!) the pressing question of whether the iPhone's voice-activated personal assistant might be sexist. We concluded that she probably isn't, but we did accuse her of extreme fuddy-duddyism for singing the 1892 ditty "Daisy, Daisy!" in response to a request for a song. We admit we sneered, just a little.
And then the letters started coming in. And suddenly the sneering was on the other foot, to coin an infelicitous phrase. "Daisy, Daisy" was of course the death song of HAL, the sentient computer in Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Our position: Yes, we missed it, but Siri should have warned us. Something along the lines of, "And now, in tribute to my predecessor HAL, my rendition of 'Daisy, Daisy!'"
Actually, the good news here is that we've discovered an excellent new use for Siri. We can blame all our own shortcomings on her. Which, when you think about it, makes her the perfect personal assistant.
Siri, where have you been all my life!

What is Integrative Studies? Integrative Studies has been defined as learning that leads students to make connections, integrating the various facets of their overall education and connecting their academic learning with the world outside the academy. While interdisciplinary learning may be part of one's academic plan, integrative learning requires students to adapt their learning to new contexts through reflection and engagement.
The BIS is a degree program that allows students of all ages to design a course of study that reflects the mission of Ferris while providing a pathway for students to meet their personal career goals. The 21st century workforce calls for individuals who have multiple talents who must be flexible and have the ability to contract their skills in a variety of contexts. The BIS asks students to focus on multiple capacities that they wish to develop and combine for individualized career paths. While each self-styled program is different, the orientation/capstone experiences and general education core provide commonality. Regardless of concentrations, minors, associates that are combined to create the individual's program of study, the culminating experience requires students to demonstrate exceptional communication skills, presentation skills, as well as a self-assessment skills in order to market themselves in their chosen career path. In recognition of the changing demands of this new workforce and the need for life-long learning, students are additionally required to plan for ongoing professional development.

this is what i found on the page for the electrical engineering lab
The only bathroom worth reviewing in Everitt Lab is the second floor one, as opposed to the inexplicably larger and cleaner third floor bathroom. But while the third floor is a welcome venture for the pooper who appreciates his space, it's also a fairly unoffensive bathroom with little to no personality. The second floor bathroom presents a much more adventurous poop, full of strange smells, entertaining graffiti, and idiosyncratic oddities that may relieve some of the stress you're feeling around exam time. Apparently the crapper is a cathartic outing for the ECE students. While UGL poopers are content with bathing the walls with piss and shit, the ECE students bathe the Everitt stall walls with life-guiding quips, such as, "If today sucks, tomorrow will seem better...unless tomorrow sucks too. Then you're ****ed." The Everitt crapper is also a signifier of the tightly knit community within the ECE department, with reassuring snippets of comfort like, "I just fingered my asshole to clean out the shit because there was no toilet paper," reassuring us all that, yeah, other people have done it too. I know I smiled a little when I read it. Unfortunately, the closeness the ECE boys feel toward one another is a little daunting at times. This was shown through my extensive studies and notetaking on the wall in Stall #3 (where patrons gladly respond to my survey questions), as the snug-ratio was alarmingly high. The snug-ratio is, of course, the ratio in which poopers will choose the stall furthest from your own as opposed to the stall directly next to yours. Everitt stalls are notorious for their over-friendliness, as ECE students will often reach their hands under the stall and introduce themselves. But when your worst complaint is that you accidentally play footsy with your neighbor, the reality isn't so bad. In fact, if you can get a student in every stall, you'll often be invited to join a game of Yahtzee on your iPhone. So all in all, if you can get past the flattened bug that's been resting over the stall for over a goddamned year now, the Everitt bathroom presents a neighborly and intimate experience for both the poopers rushing to class and those looking for an academic discussion of the latest Breaking Bad episode. As Everitt pooper ****ie D. once wrote in Stall #2, "Steamin' reasons to commit treasons, but keep your T's on, it's rabbit huntin' season."

ZF-2403: Zend_View_Helper_Head* muilt view support
When you call
inside an action and the index2 action calls this
whatever is added with head* helper in the second action does not get appended to the layout when it's rendered.
When you say "inside an action", do you mean inside an action controller method? I need more context.
The action() view helper by itself does not act as a placeholder, it simply returns content; as such, if you want it to appear in the layout script, you need to either put it in a placeholder, or include it in content that will be aggregated into the layout.
Ok here is what i do.
i request a page lets say http://test.com/news/story/My_Story
In my setup that would make it Module of news controller of story and the defualt index action as My_Story is the title of the story which is how I know which story to fetch from the db. inside of the index action i call get the story and assign it to a view.
inside of my view script i have the code to out put the story.
at the bottom of the view script i call this code.
<?= $this->action('index', 'news', 'talkback', array('story_id' => $this->story->release_id)) ?>
which call the talkback module news controller index action which if talkback exists for the passed in release then it will spit out the necessary code for the talkback module on the page.
The way i think this should work is that i should beable to specify any addition css/js/meta data that is needed in that action even though it's begin call through the action helper.
Doest that make sense?
When you say "inside of my view script", is this the view script rendered for the action, or your layout script?
If the call to $this->action() is occurring in your layout script, then this won't work; it's being executed after the other helpers have already created their output. If it's happening in your view script, but before the layout script is rendered, then there's a definite issue.
Could you confirm the sequence of events?
it it called from the action and not the layout.
so i call $this->render('designs') at the end of an action to render the designs.phtml for the current module. Inside side of that i have the $this->action('design_nav','navigation','designid', array()) call to render the local navigation or some other piece of this page. but when i try add scripts or css files from that action they do not get added.
does that make sense?
Changing release target to next minor release, as functionality will not be released before then.
Resolved in trunk; please test.

Muhannad Saleh, Photo by Adam Finkle
The long journey from war-torn Baghdad for Muhannad Saleh, his wife Hanan and their children began when 33-year-old Saleh woke up in June 2003 to hear tanks rumbling through his up-to-then-quiet neighborhood. "I said, 'That's it. I have to move my family to a safe place.' "
They first sought safety across the border in Amman, Jordan, thinking they would stay only until the violence in Iraq ebbed. But the conflict and bombings, as most Americans know, continued interminably, delaying each return "one more month." Finally, the Jordanese police arrested Saleh for working without a permit. They drove him to the Iraqi border for expulsion, but didn't bother with his wife and children. "It was a terrible day for me," he recalls of the separation from his family. "I told the police, 'I can't go back to my country. Things are too dangerous there.' "
The officers were sympathetic, but told him, "Sorry, it's the law." Finally, Saleh was permitted to rejoin his family in Amman, but only if he pledged not to work, leaving him to wonder, "How could I support my family if I can't work?"
In desperation, Saleh appealed to the United Nations to find a third country that would offer his family refuge. "The United States accepted me and it was very wonderful, but I knew no one there," Saleh says. "If you don't have anyone in the U.S., they send you to Utah. I was scared for my wife and my kids to go to a place I knew nothing about."
Saleh asked a United Nations refugee administrator about Utah.
"It's a desert," she said, then teased him: "Take a camel with you."
When the family arrived in Salt Lake City, Saleh called his brother to tell him he had arrived safely.
"What American state are you in?" his brother asked.
Saleh told him.
"Utah?" There was a pause on the line. "Are you sure you are in the United States and not China?"
From the beginning of his migration, Saleh equated security with having a job. He took whatever work he could find, beginning as parttime packer at Fed-Ex less than two months after he arrived. "You can't imagine how happy I was to get that job. It meant I could take care of my family."
Since earning certification as an electronics technician at Salt Lake Community College, he now works at Blackrock Microsystems, fabricating medical and research implant devices. "I still have my problems sometimes with money," Saleh, now 43, says, "But I have my family, a safe place for them to live and a job."
One of the first people to greet him in Salt Lake was Ron Anderson, a Unitarian church member who volunteers helping refugees settle. "He was the first person to knock on my door after I got here," Saleh recalls. Besides providing second-hand furniture and basic information, Anderson helped Saleh get his drivers license and buy a car. Most of all, he listened.
"Ron gave me that feeling—I'm safe here," Saleh says. After five years, Saleh has gotten over his homesickness for his homeland. Baghdad is on a plain and it took time to get used to Utah's mountains, he says. He's become an avid hiker. "Now, when I look up at the mountains, I think, 'I don't believe I can live without these mountains!'"
Muhannad Saleh decided war-town Baghdad was no place to rear children.
Ron Anderson, a retired federal employee, began working with the Unitarian's Refugee Resettlement Committee in 1997 distributing second-hand furniture to refugee families. "Our church is deeply involved in social justice issues," said Anderson, "and I Like people from other countries."
Anderson was often the first Utahn the arrivals met. He found himself mentor, or more accurately, a "fixer," to dozens of refugee families baffled by the customs, Laws and red tape of their new home. Anderson walked new arrivals through getting drivers licenses and buying cars.
"Their needs are endless because of Language problems, navigating government bureaucracy and school and health problems," Anderson says. "I try to find them jobs. That's the most important thing." At the same time, Anderson teaches English and American culture to the new arrivals. "He's an angel, my white American dad," says Muhannad Selah.

These package of ZeroSH gummies that I found in Mitsuwa Market interested me in many ways. First was the name, because when I see "Zero" on things it makes me think of diet food. "Zero calories" and "Zero carbs" and the like comes to mind. Which, I realize sounds strange coming from someone whose favorite candy bar is the Zero bar. Second, was the very intense bright pink images on the package. It screamed pink grapefruit to me all the way down the aisle. These things together made me wonder things like "Are these zero calorie gummies?" and "Are these gummies made with artificial sweeteners?". The only way to answer these questions, besides becoming fluent in Japanese, is to taste them.
The package makes them look similar to the Haribo gummi rings. Instead the shape is much different, more like a hollowed out oval. They have a dense coating of granular sanding sugar on the outside and they're a nice shade of pink.
The flavor is very nice. It's very authentic to pink grapefruit; bright, zesty and sweet. The granulated sugar coating gives it an extyra tartness which enchaes the flavor of the grapefruit. The coating also gives it a nice crunch and the gummi texture is on the tougher, chewier side. Overall I really liked it. Dense, chewy and authentically flavorful.
So as far as the "Zero" goes I really am no further along in figuring out. The candy didn't taste like it was zero calorie or if it was made with artificial sugars. I guess the best way to conclude it is English words are cool to use, whether or not the meaning has any connection to the item it is selling.

As we were preparing last week's special Rock and Roll Night School on rock and roll holiday records, I was amazed at how many Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees had recorded a holiday record. So, being the obsessives that we are, the Education Department staff tried to figure out just how many there are. Here's our preliminary stats. Note: for the purposes of discussion, we focused on inductees from the Performer and Early Influence category; we counted a band or a duo as one inductee (e.g., The Rolling Stones =1; Bob Dylan =1, etc.); and we included our newest group of inductees (ABBA, The Stooges, The Hollies, Jimmy Cliff, and Genesis). Here's what we found:
143 out of 255 Inductees have recorded a holiday record: 72%!
Given how many crazy one-off records are out there, I'm sure that we missed a few. I've listed our working list below. Please let us know if we missed any! We'd love hear from you.
Inductees who HAVE NOT recorded holiday songs/albums
Early Influences
1. Charlie Christian
2. Willie Dixon
3. Billie Holiday
4. Howlin' Wolf
5. Elmore James
6. Robert Johnson
7. Professor ...
The American Music Masters tribute to Janis Joplin, Kozmic Blues: The Life and Music of Janis Joplin, culminated Saturday night with a tribute concert at PlayhouseSquare's State Theater. The concert ended with Bobby Wood's terrific house band playing "Get It While You Can," a Jerry Ragovoy song that Janis Joplin recorded on Pearl. I felt such gratitude to the performers as they came out for a curtain call—they had all brought their best to tell Janis Joplin's story. Over the course of the night, they showed us Janis's deep musical roots in blues and folk, her galvanizing rock music, and her love for the soul music of her day.
An early highlight of the show was Guy Clark's "She Ain't Goin' Nowhere," a song he recorded on his debut album, Old No. 1 in 1975. Although the song wasn't written about Janis, it was a perfect song to capture her desire to leave Texas and make a space for herself out in the world. Guy and Janis played the same circuit in Houston and Austin, Texas in 1965, and he recalled meeting her back then. Janis also crossed paths with Roky Erickson ...
American Music Masters week has arrived! We kick things off tonight with a special edition of Rock and Roll Night School on Janis Joplin's career at the Baker-Nord Center for the Humanities at Case Western Reserve University. Everybody's cranking Janis tunes around here today—in the last 10 minutes, I've heard "Ball and Chain," (twice!) "Maybe," "Bye Bye Baby" and "Cry Baby."
I'm pleased to announce that we've added three artists to the bill for Saturday evening's concert at PlayhouseSquare: Rock Hall Inductee Michael Carabello will be joining his old Santana bandmate Gregg Rolie during the show. Mike is a fantastic percussionist—he's recorded with Miles Davis, Stevie Wonder, Bonnie Raitt, and the Rolling Stones, among others. Blues singer and songwriter Nick Gravenites will also be joining us. Nick crossed paths with Janis Joplin in the early 1960s during her first trip to San Francisco. Nick wrote "Buried Alive in the Blues," which Janis was due to record for Pearl when she died (an instrumental version appeared on the final album). He has written songs for Paul Butterfield, The Electric Flag, James Cotton, and Quicksilver Messenger Service, among many others. And our last ...
Last Thursday, Big Brother and the Holding Company kicked off the 2009 American Music Masters celebration, Kozmic Blues: The Life and Music of Janis Joplin. Sam Andrew, Dave Getz, and Peter Albin, three original members of the band, spent the day in Cleveland to help us tell the full story of Janis Joplin's career. They filmed interviews for our Library and Archives, did an interview and performed in our new Foster Theater, and capped the night with a packed show at the Beachland Ballroom. Clevelanders Mary Bridget Davies and Ben Nieves joined them on vocals and guitar.
Big Brother played their first gig in January of 1966, six months before Janis Joplin joined them. When they decided that they wanted another vocalist in the band, Chet Helms suggested his friend from Austin, Texas, Janis Joplin. On paper, it seems like an odd match: Big Brother was known for their energy and power—in retrospect, they seem like a punk band—but Joplin had never sung with a rock band before. Yet they found common ground in their love of blues and folk music, and they quickly discovered that Joplin could "bring it," as Dave Getz said last week in ...

"Life is just a matter of style."
—George Clinton
The look. Rock and roll is obsessed with it. Virtually every artist defines him or her self as much by the way they look as by the music they play. Bruce Springsteen and jeans. Elton John and glasses. Jim Morrison and black leather pants. You may not be able to judge a book by its cover, but you can pretty much judge a rock star by his clothes.
To celebrate the relationship between rock and fashion, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame teamed up with the Metropolitan Museum of Art to create the definitive exhibition on the subject. Rock Style premiered at the Metropolitan Museum's Costume Institute in New York City on December 6, 1999 and then opened at the Rock Hall on May 13, 2000. In the fall of 2000, Rock Style traveled to the Barbican Art Centre in London, England.
The exhibit included more than 100 original outfits from such rock legends as Elvis Presley, the Beatles, Mick Jagger, Tina Turner, David Bowie, Elton John, Madonna, Stevie Nicks, Michael Jackson, George Clinton, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Bruce Springsteen, Lou Reed and Bono. Such contemporary artists as Bjork, Courtney Love, Tori Amos and Beck were also represented in the exhibit. Highlights of the exhibit included three of the four original Sgt. Pepper uniforms, Madonna's wedding dress from the 1984 MTV Music Video Awards show, George Clinton's Uncle Jam costume and Michael Jackson's "Bad" outfit.
Rock Style Exhibition Opening Party
May 12, 2000
More than 600 Hall of Fame supporters celebrated the opening of Rock Style on May 12. The event featured live performances by Cheap Trick, the Neville Brothers and pop-rock rookie Michael Fredo. "There isn't one artist who's a mega-star who doesn't have a great sense of style," said fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger, who attended the party and dinner. The exhibit was co-curated with the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute and sponsored by Tommy Hilfiger U.S.A., Inc
"We've been visiting the Rock Hall for three years, about two times per year. Your displays are fabulous and we learn something new each time we're here...It's even allowing us to teach our 9-year-old son about all music...So do we think it's worth a three-and-a-half-hour drive from Dayton, Ohio in the pouring rain? You bet! Rock on." "Wow - This is the music of our lives. This place is awesome - extremely impressive. We grew up on Alan Freed, Bandstand and Cousin Brucie. Keep up the good work - we'll be back."

The Goldener Hirsch Inn Restaurant hired new leadership in the kitchen for this winter season, locals Ryan Burnham as the Executive Chef and Billy Williams as Restaurant Manager.
The Goldener Hirsch Inn, located in the Deer Valley Resort Silver Village, serves classic Austrian fare such as schnitzel, fondue and strudel. And it's a tradition Burnham said he was excited to work with, adding his own spin to the award-winning menu.
"It's such a cool little spot, this restaurant, and we are going to be able to get really fun and creative with the food," Burnham said. "Of course, we will stick with the Alpine-Austrian vein, but we also want to support local farmers, do as much as possible local product as we can.
"I'm looking at some modern twist on classic Alpine food ways of tweaking dishes, where we still focus on more rustic cuisine. I think that we're going to be able to get really creative and intricate with the food where we want to and where it is appropriate."
Burnham graduated from the California Culinary Academy and serves as the Executive Chef of Pago in Salt Lake City before taking the position in Park City. He also was the Executive Chef for Wahso in Park City as well as spending several years at the Stein Eriksen Glitretind Restaurant. He was also the opening Chef for the highly acclaimed Gotham Steak restaurant in the newly revitalized Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach.
Fellow Park City local Williams is picking up the reins as the new Restaurant Manager.
"What we're looking to do, both Chef Ryan and I, is to obviously keep the wonderful traditions going forward. We would also like to update our levels of service to ensure wonderful guest satisfaction."
Williams plans to expand the wine and beer list and add live entertainment featuring yodeling, accordion music, Swiss folk songs and European Cabaret music.

The M.O.T. Charter School will be holding an informational meeting Thursday night on a proposed charter high school that is expected to open in the fall of 2014.
The proposed school will be divided into two academies – an Academy of the Arts and an Academy of Science and Technology.
"What we're attempting to do is take two popular school models, Cab Calloway School of the Arts and the Charter School of Wilmington, and combine them with M.O.T. as it exists now so that the high school would have these two academies," said Linda Jennings, head of school for the M.O.T. Charter School.
The application to modify the school's charter with the state is due Dec. 31, she said. To move forward with the plans, the school's charter has to be modified with the state to reflect all grade levels they serve.
"We have a lot of excitement from our current families," Jennings said.
There are about 675 students enrolled in the M.O.T. Charter School, which serves students from kindergarten through eighth grade.
Jennings anticipates state approval early next year.
Like other charter schools across the state, admission to the school is done through a lottery process.
The cost to build the school and location are still being worked out, but Jennings said that it will be in the Middletown, Odessa, and Townsend area.
"We plan to open in a temporary facility while's we're building our permanent one," she said.
She said that the temporary school will open in 2014.
Classes are also still being planned.
"We're contemplating a few pathways for each academy," Jennings said.
The Academy of the Arts will potentially have curriculums focusing on performing arts, digital communication arts, and visual arts and the Academy of Science and Technology may have bio-medical science and technology, energy and environmental engineering, engineering, and science and technology.
Jennings said their goal is to have class sizes of 180 students per grade split between the two academies with about 31 students in each classroom for core classes.
Students will also take electives specialized for their path which as the classes get more specialized, will most likely have smaller class sizes.
"We think this is a great," Jennings said. "Our goal is to offer another vhoice for families in our area."
Thursday night's meeting will run from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the gymnasium of the school at 1156 Levels Road in Middletown.

Despite the complete failure of both local and federal law enforcement to find any evidence whatsoever of George Zimmermans supposed racism ending in the death of black teenager Trayvon Martin in February 2012 in Florida, the Obama administration continues to threaten prosecution against Zimmerman. On Monday, Attorney General Eric Holder said that despite Zimmermans acquittal in his second-degree murder trial, the Department of Justice was still considering whether to bring civil rights charges against Zimmerman. I'm not sure exactly how much longer that will take, but we will get to a point where we are able to make a determination, he said.
The Obama administration has taken an incredibly active role in the Zimmerman case, with President Obama originally intervening before Zimmermans arrest to state that if he had a son, he would have looked like Trayvon Martin; after Zimmermans acquittal, Obama gave a speech on race relations in America implying that Zimmerman had racially profiled Martin.
The Department of Justice also sent members of the government to facilitate rallies against Zimmerman in Sanford, Florida, prior to Zimmermans arrest.
Black Blade: Now it's just persecution. Nothing to do with justice. Didn't get the verdict they joped for now they will dog Zimmerman until at least a new regime takes power.

Recently, a group (Sisterhood) from West Side Community House in Cleveland's Sisterhood program visited the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum during one of the Museum's education programs. Here, Allison McClain, youth services director at the West Side Community House, explains how music and education come together in the Sisterhood program, and how a special visit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum made for an exciting experience for the girls in the program.
Sisterhood is an after school and summer program at West Side Community House for girls ages 10-15, and girls ages 16-18 can apply to the program as mentors. Sisterhood began as a pilot program in 2008 with a Call to Prayer grant from United Methodist Women. The mission of Sisterhood is to prepare girls for womanhood and their life beyond. Since 2008, the Sisterhood program has served hundreds of girls from the east and west side of Cleveland, providing girls with a safe space to talk about real issues and process ways to learn and grow from those issues.
The school year curriculum is divided into five cycles: Social Skills and Self Esteem, Family Support and Outreach, Education and Arts & Creativity, Financial Literacy and Health & Wellness. Each cycle includes hands-on activities, field trips and discussions with speakers from the community who share their knowledge and expertise as it relates to each cycle. Our summer program (Summer of Sisterhood) is an eight-week creative and performing arts camp. A range of teaching artists, including musicians, singers, dancers, actresses, songwriters, visual artists and poets work with the girls on creating original songs and poetry. The girls go to a professional studio to record and create an album. Summer of Sisterhood concludes with a live performance.
The Sisterhood program's first album, Sisterhood is Amazing, explores the value of friendship, love and respect. The program's second album, Just Wait and See, is a concept album that explores what it means to be a girl growing up in Cleveland. On February 15, 2012, as part of the program's cycle three (Education and Arts & Creativity), girls in the Sisterhood program had the opportunity to meet Spinderella from Salt-N-Pepa at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. Spinderella was at the Rock Hall as part of the Museum's Legends Series, which invites artists to speak and perform at the Rock Hall. Over the course of the evening, Spinderella told the audience about her experiences as a young artist and wrapped up the evening with a DJ demonstration. Spinderella's story was a big inspiration to the girls of the Sisterhood program, who were particularly inspired by Spinderella's success as a teenager. Girls in the Sisterhood program learned the importance of working hard and not being afraid to chase after something – even if you are the only girl doing it.
It was very empowering for Sisterhood to meet a real life "shero" they could relate to and hold a meaningful conversation with. The girls were completely shocked when Spinderella requested a song from their Just Wait and See album. To top it off, Spinderella danced to their voices and told them the song "Tylenol and Tissue" was "hot!" Enthusiasm filled the room as the girls finished singing, and Spinderella asked, "Who wrote that?" Proudly, the girls responded, "We did!" Spinderella told Sisterhood it was great that they were writing their own songs because of the many opportunities in the music industry as a songwriter (talk about motivation for improving literacy skills!) As Tieara Dawson, 14, stated: "I like how [Spinderella] kept answering our questions and took time to sign autographs. She could've have told us no, but [Spinderella] was real down-to-earth."

Heat watch: NBA approaching Friday's amnesty deadline
Gilbert Arenas made it safely through, yet to find a landing spot.
Chauncey Billups didn't get his wish, but arguably landed in the perfect spot alongside Chris Paul with the Clippers.
Baron Davis was just put up for grabs.
Travis Outlaw, Richard Jefferson and a few others could yet follow.
Mike Miller seemingly isn't going anywhere.
Friday is the NBA's deadline for teams utilizing the amnesty provision for 2011-12 payroll. The rule removes salary-cap and luxury-tax hits from a team's payroll, with full salary payment still required.
As we know by now, what follows when such a player is waived is a 48-hour waiver period where teams operating below the salary cap can place bids to pick up a portion of the players' annual salary.
Billups, for example, was waived while due $14.2 million from the Knicks. He was claimed at $2 million by the Clippers.
Davis is in a bit of a different situation. Because he has this season plus an option season on his contract, it is possible a team below the cap claims him as trade bait. While amnesty acquisitions cannot be dealt before July 1, that still would allow an acquiring team to deal Davis for something of value next summer.
Because of that, the back injury that could have Davis out for two months might not necessarily dissuade teams from making amnesty claims. He could be claimed and simply allowed to spend the rest of the season at home on his couch.
While it appears the Heat will not utilize their amnesty rights this preseason, teams can utilize it once at any point during the new collective-bargaining agreement that will run at least six seasons.
By Friday, we'll have a better of sense of where the league stands.
Don't be surprised if a few more intriguing names are added to the mix.

ZF-1269: Error extending Zend_Db_Table for PostGreSQL database views
I attempted to model a PostGreSQL database view by extending Zend_Db_Table and it is failing. I am able to instantiate the object but a call to Zend_Db_Table_Abstract::fetchAll() fails with the following error and stack trace:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Zend_Db_Adapter_Exception' with message 'SQLSTATE[42601]: Syntax error: 7 ERROR: syntax error at or near "FROM" at character 10' in /data/www/vhosts/mysite/v2/library/Zend/Db/Adapter/Pdo/Abstract.php:156 Stack trace:

In the newsgroup Bill mentioned: {quote} I haven't tested the PostgreSQL adapter for Zend_Db with database views yet, so it's likely that some adjustment is needed in the query against the system catalog tables to support views in the describeTable() method. {quote}
I committed a unit test In SVN r7178 to test the use of {{Zend_Db_Table_Abstract::fetchAll()}} on a view. The table/view class {{Zend_Db_Table_TableViewBugsFixed}} (in {{trunk/tests/Zend/Db/Table/TableViewBugsFixed.php}}) represents a view created by the test setup. I noticed that I could only get this to work using a view name having all lowercase characters and no underscores. Also, defining the primary key in the class extending {{Zend_Db_Table_Abstract}} avoids problems with automatic primary key resolution via the results of {{describeTable()}}.
I heartily recommend that more unit tests using views are developed for these database components.
Can you please provide more information about the conditions under which you experience this issue? I could not quickly reproduce the exact error message you received. Thanks. :)
Reducing priority to Should Have, pending additional issue reproduction information from reporter.
Unfortunately I no longer have access to this... I have moved on from that company. So my memory of the issue is going to be a bit muddle but in essence we had created a view in the database and were trying to use zend_db_table to create a model for it. So in the model _setup method we set the name property to the name of the view. It seemed to instantiate just fine but we could not perform any fetch operation. Hope that helps.
Resolving as "cannot reproduce" pending further information receipt.
I've just been hit by this bug with version from svn today 08-07-2009.
The test case would be this ( I express it first in human language )
Create a view called view_test_zf with two simple columns issue form a select t.id as view_id, t.label as view_label from test
Now if you create a class extending Zend_Db_Table_Abstract like this
class Default_Model_DbView_Test extends Zend_Db_Table_Abstract { /** * The default table name */ protected $_name = 'view_test_zf'; protected $_id = 'view_id';
} This work well with real tables. and should be suffisant (db adapter used is pdo_pgsql with a traditionnal initialisation by Zend_Application )
It produce the following error

Rain pushes golf tournament to Sunday
Published: Saturday, August 17, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 17, 2013 at 2:54 p.m.
Morning and afternoon rain Saturday will make for a long Sunday for many of the participants in the Wilmington City Amateur golf tournament.
Rain washed away the first day of the tournament at Wilmington Municipal Golf Course. The tournament was supposed to start at 8 a.m. but was soon pushed back a half hour. A few groups eventually got started but only played a few holes before more rain caused the eventual postponement.
"It looked like we were going to have a window (to play)," course pro David Donovan said. "That's just part of tournament golf. Nobody is real happy about it."
Instead of the simple two rounds in two days, most of the competitors will play 36 holes Sunday. The tournament will start anew at 8 a.m., and Donovan said he hopes to complete the first round by the early afternoon. The players from the two championship flights as well as flights 1 and 2 will be re-paired after that to begin the second round. The tournament will be over for players in flights 3 and 4 after one round. So 95 out of the 143 entrants will play 36 holes.
A similar scenario happened in 2009, when the tournament was reduced to one round. Donovan said he did not want that to happen again this time.
"It just isn't as good like that," Donovan said. "We wanted to have the biggest tournament we could. (Playing 36 holes) means we can put guys with the leaders. That's the pressure of the tournament."
The golf course has only 56 carts, which Donovan said would have made it nearly impossible for everybody to play 36 holes.
"That's as big a reason as any (some competitors will play only one round)," Donovan said.
The ideal scenario would result in a final-round start time of 2 p.m., Donovan said. Rain is not expected in tomorrow's forecast.

Her excitement evolved into an empire: The S Factor business includes six locations, DVDs and the holy grail of it all: appearances on the Oprah show.
"It's so yummy and delicious," says the bubbly brunette, her own lithe body and comfortably slinky moves a testament to the workout. "My whole world changed. My relationship with my husband changed. I had a second baby because of it." (note: she turned her husband's office into a home studio early on, possibly explaining the second baby.)
Classes defy easy classification like 'strip-tease' or 'pole dance' and have major fitness and dance components that keep it from going the way of the back alley. S Factor is different than many of today's fitness trends which, according to Kelley, are made for the compartmentalized body of a man, who responds well to ups and downs, backs and forth.
"Women are very fluid creatures, and they're more sensual than men. It's a fact," says Kelley, frequently punctuating her words with hip rolls and feline sways. "Women are deep, provocative. You bring sexuality, physicality, emotionality everywhere you go."
Mat work employs the sort of deep stretches and undulating curves that look sexual, but feel like exercise. What would be scissors in your everyday aerobics class is suddenly a sultry move that would look at home in an over-sized martini glass. Kelley's made the impossible happen: ab work feels, suddenly, sexy. Only later, with already shaking legs, do we get to learn "tricks" on the pole. It's more gymnast than stripper, and it's easy to forget it's a great upper body workout until sore arms remind you days later.
There's a wonderful catch-22 in the class: your body is doing moves that would catch the eye of any hot-blooded male, yet the studio is what Kelley calls "a safe place." Fighting against the gimmicky striptease classes that have started populating class listings at gyms around the country, she says S Factor classes are a lot about empowerment (she's even talking about starting teen classes, well aware that could cause an outcry from women not familiar with her teachings.) Studios have no overhead lighting and scattered perimeter candles cast sensual shadows. There are no windows, no mirrors, and definitely no men.
"It's profoundly moving to allow your body not to try to impress anyone," she says about the inward-leaning feel of the class. "Before 40, there are so many demands on a woman, like birthing and careering. When you're over 40, you stand up and take all that's offered to you."
A lot of S Factor's teachers are over-40, a fact she chalks up to the comfort older women have in themselves and in their bodies.
The oldest student Kelley's had?
After class, muscles are all turned on (tucked, tight, tall) and your feminine senses have never been higher. Thank goodness our teacher warned us to be careful where we did our recently learned and extra languid S Factor walk. Traffic jams could arise.
The second time I took class, my teacher was fresh off of winning New York City's "Pole Star" competition. Don't think working a pole can be as beautiful as an evening at the ballet? See for yourself.
S Factor studios can be found in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Costa Mesa and Houston. For more information, visit their website.

The kibbutz is a self-contained social and economic unit in which decisions are taken by its members, and property and means of production are communally owned. Today 1.7 percent of the population lives in 267 kibbutzim. Members are assigned work in different branches of the kibbutz economy: traditionally the backbone of Israel's agriculture, kibbutzim are now increasingly engaged in industry, tourism, and services. Many kibbutzim have modified their traditional collective approach and are in various stages of privatization.
The moshav is a rural settlement in which each family maintains its own farm and household. In the past, cooperation extended to purchasing and marketing; today moshav farmers have chosen to be more economically independent. 441 moshavim and moshavim shitufi'im comprise some 3.5 percent of the population and supply much of Israel's agricultural produce.
The yishuv kehilati (community settlement) is a new form of rural settlement, with each of the 107 existing communities comprised hundreds of families. Although each family's economic life is completely independent and most members work outside the community, the level of volunteer participation of members in community life is very high.
The central governing institution is the General Assembly, made up of the heads of each household, which sets and passes the community's budget at its annual meeting.Alongside management and oversight committees, a number of working groups deal with areas such as education, culture, youth, finances and the like. A paid secretariat runs the community's day-to-day affairs according to the decisions of the elected bodies. New members are accepted only with the approval of the community.

Durham angler lands huge crappie
Published: Friday, April 19, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 18, 2013 at 11:42 p.m.
Durham's Rod King caught a huge crappie while fishing the April 6 Bobcat's crappie tournament at Kerr Lake.
King's crappie tipped the scales at 4.24 pounds and measured 17 1/2 inches in length and 16 1/2 inches in girth. The fish was taken with a 1/16-ounce Bill Simpson jig tipped with a minnow. Crappie weighing more than 4 pounds are scarce in state waters.
Thanks to Phil McCarson of Piedmont Bass Classics for passing information of the catch on to others.
Only five striped bass reached the scales at Saturday's Tarheel Striper Club Open Tournament at Lake Tillery as 13 teams struggled to find fish.
Robert Steele of Lexington and David Woodward of Charlotte brought in just one 7.25-pound striper, but the fish was good enough for the first-place and big-fish cash awards.
Runner-up Robert Moss of Trinity had one striper weighing 6.9 pounds.
Other angers catching fish were Bobby Garner of Badin Lake and Joe Garner of Asheboro, third, with a striper weighing 5.8 pounds; Steve and Tammy Shoe, fourth, with a 5.1-pound striper; and Ronnie Cook and Mike Mize, fifth, with a 5.05-pound striper.
Neil and Pat McDonald of Thomasville don't buy into the superstition that "13" is an unlucky number. The couple won the April 13 Adam & Eve Trail Tournament at Badin Lake with a five-fish catch of 16 pounds, 3 ounces and received $287. The catch was anchored with a 4-pound, 7-ounce bass.
"We've had several second-and third-place finishes, but this was our first win on the trail," said Pat.
The McDonalds caught their limit shortly after taking off from the Lakemont Landing by fishing rocky structure in 4 to 5 feet of water with plastic worms.
Bob and Mary Jennett of Kernersville placed second with 14-08 and collected $172.50. They caught their fish with crankbaits.
Ron and Carmen Nelson of Sophia took the third-place prize of $115 with 13-11. They added another $115 to their winnings by catching the big fish of the day, a 4-pound, 11-ounce bass.
The Nelsons used their own custom-made plastic worms to get their strikes.
They also donated tournament plaques for the season for use by the trail, which was deeply appreciated.
Thirteen of the 23 teams weighed in fish, but the big bass bite at Badin disappeared with the drop in water level, sunny conditions, and the abrupt change from muddy to clear water.
The Adam & Eve Trail has scheduled a special father-and-daughter tournament for May 4 at Badin out of the Lakemont Landing. For details, email Ricky Clark at email@example.com.
Shane Lehew and Eric Self led UNC-Charlotte to victory at the April 12-13 Carhartt Bassmaster College Series Eastern Regional tournament at Lake Norman. The two anglers had a two-day catch of 35-4 to easily outdistance the field.
Other scores were Zachary Blalock and Kyle Albers of East Carolina, second, with 26-1; Carmen Rejzer and Chris Carwile of Virginia Tech, third, with 24-13; Ronnie Moore and TJ Chafatelli of East Carolina, sixth, with 23-7; and Tyler Faggart and Tyler Mayhew of NC State, eighth, with 22-12.
Grant McPeters of Marion and Billy Wright won Saturday's Fishers of Men Piedmont Division tournament at Lake Norman with 15.90 pounds that paid $1,836.
Marty Nester of Mt. Airy and Joey Pack placed second with 15.35 pounds and shared $801. Jeff Queen of Catawba and Josh Queen of Lincolnton ranked third with 14.77 pounds for $568.
Kenny Seagle of Salisbury and Drew Montgomery of Concord took the fourth-place prize of $264 with 13.65 pounds.
Big-fish honors went to Dave Snyder of Concord and Bryon O'Daniel of Kannapolis with a 5.13-pound bass.
Falls of the Neuse is the hottest lake in the area for largemouth bass at this moment.
At the April 6 Boats Unlimited Team Tournament event, the top eleven teams weighed in more than 20 pounds of fish. Two bass weighing more than 9 pounds were brought to the scales. Last Saturday at the CATT Old North tournament, the top five teams had more than 20 pounds.

TEMPE, Ariz. – The No. 4 Stanford Cardinal used a 54-percent shooting effort and a 30-point, 16-rebound performance by Chiney Ogwumike to defeat No. 14 Arizona State 80-56 on Monday night.
While Stanford (17-1, 6-0 Pac-12) operated at a high level of efficiency throughout the game, the Sun Devils (15-3, 4-2) struggled to score on a consistent basis as they connected on only 32 percent of their shots.
Katie Hempen led ASU in the points column with 13 while Sophie Brunner recorded her fourth double-double of the season with 12 points and 11 rebounds. Adrianne Thomas added a game-high six assists for the Sun Devils, who had a season-low 10 turnovers.
In addition to Ogwumike's contributions, Taylor Greenfield scored 14 points while Karlie Samuelson and Lili Thompson added 11 points each for Stanford, which won its 16th consecutive game.
"I don't think we played up to our capabilities," said ASU head coach Charli Turner Thorne. "We didn't play to our strengths and we didn't do the things that have allowed us to have the success we've had up to this point.
"You have to play your 'A' game against Stanford, and we didn't. You have to shoot well from the perimeter against Stanford and we missed way too much."
After trailing by as many as 14 in the first half, the Sun Devils used a 12-2 run to cut Stanford's lead to 28-24 with 2:28 remaining. The Cardinal would score five straight to build their lead back up to nine, before taking a 35-28 lead into the half.
Brunner's 10 points and seven rebounds paced the Sun Devils in the first half.
Any hopes the Sun Devils had for a comeback were quickly dashed in the opening minutes of the second half as the Cardinal came out and scored the first nine points to take a 44-28 lead with 16:44 remaining. The run proved to be too much for the Sun Devils to overcome as they could not get any closer than 14 points the rest of the way.
"We felt like we could come back out in the second half and shore up our defense and settle down on offense," said Turner Thorne. "Unfortunately we let our (lack of success on offense) affect our defense."
The Sun Devils went toe-to-toe with Stanford over the first six-plus minutes as the two teams split the first 16 points. A 20-4 run by the Cardinal in the middle of the half helped it seize control of the game.
With the loss, the Sun Devils slipped to fifth-place in the Pac-12, one game in the loss column behind USC (6-1), Cal (5-1) and Washington State (5-1) and two behind Stanford (6-0).
After each of their previous two losses to San Diego and Washington State the Sun Devils have responded by putting together winning streaks of 10 and four games, respectively. They will look to bounce back later this week when they go on the road to face Utah and Colorado.
"We've rebounded well (from losses) and I think that's our toughness kicking in," explained Turner Thorne. "We didn't give a tough effort today. I think that's built in practice. I'm very confident this team will respond."
ASU's two-game road trip begins on Friday night (7 p.m. MT) in Salt Lake City when it faces Utah.
