Gas prices for most families have been difficult to deal with over the past several years. You can learn how to reduce your bill and save hundreds of dollars each month by spending less money at the pump. Whether you drive a car or an RV, here are several sure ways to lower your gas bill and put more money back into your pocket.
Drive at least 5 miles under the speed limit
If you want to learn how to save hundreds of dollars each and every month then this money saving tip is for you. Try driving the minimum speed for each area you drive through. This will take some getting used to if you are accustomed to driving over the speed limit. This great tip will not only lower your weekly and monthly gas bill but will also extend the life of your vehicle.
Let's take a look at just how much money you can save at the pump by using this tip. According to Fueleconomy.gov, if you are driving over 50 mph you can save twenty six cents per gallon on gas by reducing your speed by 5 mph. Each time you lower your speed by 5 mph you will save an additional twenty six cents per gallon. Your gas bill can actually be cut in half just by using this awesome money saving tip.
Take off slowly
Another great way to save money at the pump is to get the lead out of your foot and take off slowly from stoplights and stop signs. Learning how to use this tip will not only put more money in your pocket but will also extend the life of your tires as well. If you are looking for ways to be more frugal, some old habits will need to be broken. Give yourself more time to get where you are going if you plan to adopt these techniques for saving at the pump.
Use your loyalty card
One sure way to save money is to learn how to use loyalty cards at your local grocery store. These cards have been around for awhile now but many consumers still do not take advantage of the benefits. Many supermarkets and grocery stores offer discounts at the pump when you reach a certain amount of spending at their market. If you have a family and purchase a lot of groceries each week, the money you can save will be a great benefit. It is well worth your time to fill out the application for one of these money saving cards.
Pump your gas early in the day
Gasoline also has vapor and as the temperature rises outside, so do the amount of fumes. If you want more liquid gas and fewer vapors, fill up your gas tank during the early morning hours. Learning where and how to fill up your tank is another sure way to lower your bill at the pump.
Maintain your vehicle
There are several key areas to keep maintained when trying to save money on gas. Replacing your fuel filter regularly, making sure your tires are not under inflated, and periodically checking your gas pedal will help lead you to better gas mileage and a larger bank account.
These money saving tips are just a few sure ways you can learn how to live a more frugal lifestyle while experiencing less pain at the pump.

The World Premiere of the
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, I mean, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is out and whilst it looks good [for a COD game], it really brings nothing revolutionary to the FPS genre, or to the COD series whatsoever. To COD fans, it'll be great - but boy do those graphics look dated. Maybe it's because Battlefield 3 just looks so over-the-top phenomenal. Keep in mind I'm a COD fanboy at heart.
Anyway, check out the trailer below!

She has tried to portray this in her watercolour and acrylic paintings of the area introducing her own ideas and imagination into the landscapes she sees around her. This year she has used backgrounds of gold to produce rich and deeply layered portrayals of the forests and fields of this area, an idea she derived from iconography where gold is used to represent heaven.

This is the 3rd article of "The Cucumber Series."
If you missed the previous 2 articles, let's recap: Cucumbers are considered a superfood. They provide our bodies with a great deal of love by fighting off cancer, providing energy boosts, hydration, healthy digestion, weight control, and positive joint health.
We can talk about cucumbers until we turn green, but if we don't know how to incorporate them into our daily lives by eating them, they won't help at all.
In this 10 day series we give 10 great ways to eat cucumbers morning, noon, or night.
Day 3:
Good Morning, "Super Hero Cucumber!" Get your blender out, it's gonna be a fun morning.
(Tip: Alway wash your fruits & veggies, even if they are organic, they've been handled)
- Cut a whole cucumber (skin on) into big quarters, place in blender
- Cut the stems off 7 strawberries, place into blender (Allergic to strawberries? No problem. Sub with 1/2 cup of cut pears/apples)
- Add 1/2 cup of blueberries to blender
- Add 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped mint to blender
- Add 1 tablespoon of honey or 100% pure maple syrup (local honey is great because it helps fight environmental allergic reactions. Plus, it's soothing to digestive system)
- Add 6 ice cubes to blender
- Fill the blender with cold water (with all ingredients in it)
Blend this nourishing superfood together for a few minutes. Pour some into your "on the road" cup & you're good to go. In a few hours, when you are still feeling clean, refreshed, energized and maybe even a little "WOW." It's okay, it's just the "cucumber love" working.
Want the kids to like it? Tell them cucumbers are little super heroes for our bodies (because they are). If we drink this smoothie, we will have super powers all day (because we will).
Stay tuned for the next "Cucumber Series" article. Did you try these recipes? If so, leave a comment here or send Food Allergy Gal a social media shout out on Facebook or Twitter.

I feel in love with this dress online and then when I went to try it on I knew this was the one…although I did continue dress shopping just to make sure. I called my wedding off 6 months before the big day and the dress was already ordered. My mom picked it up from the store without telling me so I wouldn't get upset and I never tried it on. This dress is brand new with tags! Maggie Sottero's Primavera is a beautiful asymmetrical drop waist, strapless, a-line gown with dainty polka-dot lace as the top layer of the skirt and creamy white satin making up the bodice. Lace appliques with crystals and beads embellish areas of the bodice and skirt. This dress is "diamond white" which is closer to an ivory color than a white and it looks amazing on any skin color. Please respond to this add if you are interested in this dress or have any further questions. I can give measurements upon request.
- Alterations: No alterations have been made to this dress although it was special ordered as a petite (3 inches shorter than the normal length). I did not want to pay a lot of money to have it hemmed and lose some of the beautiful lace work!
- Preservation Method: Dress was never worn or tried on after purchase. Has not been taken out of bridal bag since picked up from the bridal salon where it was special ordered.
- Terms of Sale: All Sales Final

A key function to managing any business is resource
allocation. There is always a limited supply of resources and
generally unlimited ways in which to focus them in any given
situation. Organizational structures should be developed in
alignment with:
New sales model, cycle and processes
Available sales and support resources
Where your highest probability prospects and
highest yielding customers are located
The ability to properly service your prospects
and customers
Baker Sales Systems will compare the existing sales resource structure against Sales & Marketing Business Intelligence data to identify optimal organizational structures and territory coverage. The new structures and coverage are then mapped to the sale model, cycle and process. The result is a process centered sales force optimally organized to sell into territories rich with qualified leads, prospects, and new customers.
Our step-by-step approach :
& document existing sales resource structures.

Le Meridien and Tate present the Unlock Art Film Series

Performance Art
Whether random or carefully scripted, performance art taps into our basic human psyche and encourages audience interaction on infinite levels. Since the 19th century artists have devoted themselves to communicating physical and emotional experiences through different media and interpretations. Whether it's experimenting with nudity, challenging oppressive regimes or staging one's own death, performance art is inherently controversial and forces the audience to confront uncomfortable and idiosyncratic issues.
There are no rules, which, by essence can make it appear troubling, empowering, thought-provoking and more. Performance art is rarely linear, but challenges convention impacting on both the performer's and spectator's experience. In a nutshell, it's all about 'art imitating life' with an added dimension.

Iron Cowgirls
In case of books and movies, motorcycle riders are generally portrayed as males who are more or less daredevils when it comes to riding motorcycles and bikes. However, in real life, even women can have a keen interest in these vehicles! Riding a motorcycle is no doubt a highly enjoyable activity because nothing can compare to the freedom or the adrenaline rush that one can get while cruising down a road with hands on the motorcycle handles and the wind blowing in one's face! Women whose primary interest is motorcycles can join a female motorcycle club in order to meet fellow female motorcycle riders and share their passion with like-minded individuals.
Why Join Motorcycle Clubs For Women?
The answer to this question is quite simple Why should boysmen have all the fun? Just because you are a woman doesn't mean that biking is not for you. There are plenty of other women out there who are just like you and who have a deep passion for motorcycle riding. Of course, before joining a motorcycle club, it would be advisable to obtain a motor trade insurance to be on the safe side. When you have a motor trade insurance, you will be protected and covered for. In case you do sustain injuries while riding the motorcycle, the insurance policy would pay the expenses and medical bills on your behalf.
Read more about motor trade insurance
Joining a club for female motorcycle enthusiasts is a great way of meeting other women who share the same passion as you. Although it might be intimidating in the beginning to meet so many like-minded individuals who enjoy the same sport as you but you'll eventually get over it and be able to hang out and ride motorcycles with your own gang!
Explore New Areas
For women, exploring a new area on a motorcycle alone can be a little dangerous. However, when you are in a gang of female motorcycle enthusiasts, it is considerably safer. Thus, by signing up for such a club you will be able to explore new areas in your city, some of which you probably never knew about! Motorcycle clubs generally offer a vast number of rides and tours for their members and these are extremely fun for beginners as well as experts!
Joining a Motorcycle Club For Women Can Instil A Sense of Belonging
In a community where motorcycle riding is more of a men's thing, it can sometimes be difficult for women riders to feel a sense of belonging. These women feel isolated and depressed because they don't seem to 'fit' in the society where women generally do not have interests in motorcycles. However, things can go for a complete 180 degree flip after you join a motorcycle club for women. Here, you'd not feel as though you are the only one with this not-so-conventional passion! You can meet other female bikers and enjoy riding in large groups. You can also discuss your passion for motorcycles with them. In short, you can have your own clique and feel at home. Thus, it is recommended that all female riders should join a motorcycle club in order to nurture and keep their passion for motorcycles alive!

Some children ask the hard and complicated religious and spiritual questions at an age when most kids have other things on their mind. How do we know if something is true? Did God make us or did we evolve? If God is good, why do bad things happen? Why doesn't God answer my prayers? How about other faiths? How do we know what the Bible says is right? What happened to Jesus? Did someone just make up the story about Jesus? This book is an attempt to deal with such questions in a way that is understandable for ages nine to twelve, while being consistent with issues they will encounter later and at a more sophisticated level. Father Larry's theological orientation is a sort of progressive orthodoxy, so that while this book takes seriously and embraces the best of modern scholarship it integrates contemporary scholarship with, and is true to, classic Christian faith.
Fr. Larry, OPA is an Episcopal priest, pastoral counselor, spiritual director, and author. He and his wife Brenda live near San Diego with Jack -- their Queensland/Catahoula mix.

This beautiful gown is in near perfect condition, purchased at a sample sale but never worn. The dress will need to be professionally cleaned (there are few spots on the sash, however I think an embellished belt would be a great addtion), and may require some alterations depending on your size and height. The bodice will likely fit a 32-34, B or C cup perfectly.
I am sad to see it go, as it is such a lovely and feminine gown (the color is a dream), but our plans have changed indefinitely.
If you live in the San Francisco area and would like to see it or try it on, I am open to making arrangements.

some of the party girl's favorites...

Jungle Theme Birthday Party: Safari FriendsYour little adventurer is in for a wild first birthday with this fun safari theme party. The guest of honor will love the bright and fun Safari Friends decorations, and there is plenty to amuse the older children too! So get ready to head out for a fantastic adventure with this Safari Friends first birthday party.
Safari Friends Party Invitations
Start with a invitation that will make the kids roar with excitement. Invite them on safari with a personalized jungle theme invitation or a semi custom jungle theme caricature invitation. Both are personalized and unique for your little monkey.
For another type of invitation, go to your local party store or costume store and buy rubber animal noses. On animal stationary, write all of the pertinent party information. Attach the animal noses to the party information and hand deliver the invitations to the guests. This will get everyone excited to go on safari with you!
Another cute (and simple) choice is a fill in the blank Safari Friends party invitation. There are also matching thank you notes so you can thank everyone for gifts
No matter what invitation you choose, throw some elephant confetti in your envelope to get everyone excited for your big day!
Safari Friends Decorations and Party Supplies
Your little one is certainly adorable. Imagine how cute they will be as a lifesize safari cutout of a safari boy or safari girl welcoming everyone to the party. People will love this and you'll get lots of great photos with it during the evening! Set it on a table at the entrance or on a buffet next to the birthday cake and prepare to keep it as a memento for years to come. (Here's an example of a 1st birthday cutout we did for a St. Patrick's Day theme party.)
There is nothing that screams birthday party as much as crepe paper streamers hung around a birthday party. This is a toddler's birthday party, so match the Safari Friends theme using bright and very fun colors of crepe paper. Yellow, purple and blues work well, but you can really use all the colors of the rainbow, since they are all featured in the paper goods for this theme.
You know how much we love balloons at a birthday party! For your 1st birthday safari party, mix together lion Mylar balloon with green latex balloons with elephants and an assortment of latex balloons in colors to match the safari balloons. Don't forget the helium tank to inflate the balloons.
As the children enter the party, pass out safari hats (after all, this is going to be an adventure) for them to wear and play with at the party. Safari Friends cone hats are also a fun and inexpensive option.
A Safari Friends 1st birthday personalized welcome sign hung in the entrance or by the food table surrounded by large kid friendly jungle animal wall graphics is a good (and inexpensive!) way to fill a wall and send a special birthday message to your guest of honor!
Safari Table Decorations and Menu
Start with fabulous Safari Friends theme paper goods to match the theme. There are plates, cups, napkins and more to make serving (and clean up!) nice and easy. We love the cartoon jungle animals and bright colors used on the set. A lime green tablecover is the perfect choice to go with all these great paper goods and to add to the jungle feel of your party.
Balloons always make a fun centerpiece. Mix together more bouquets of lion Mylar balloons and latex balloons and tie them together. They can be weighed down with simple balloons weights.
Throw animal crackers as confetti all over the table as part of the look, as well as a tasty snack for hungry children! You can also put a box of animal crackers at each place, tagged with a note from the guest of honor, as a fun favor.
Quench their thirst (yes, safaris are tiring!) with bottles of water with personalized jungle theme bottle labels for the older kids and straw cups for the little ones!
Think jungle when working on your menu! Here are a few ideas for your jungle party:
- Pizza decorated with animal stripes - you can use a variety of toppings to create this look
- Lion fingers - ok, they are just chicken fingers renamed
- Fresh bananas and fruit kabobs
- Jell-O in the shapes of different animals - use animal cookie cutters.
- Trail mix with nuts (assuming no one has allergies) - this is good for energy when going on safari!
Safari Friends Party Activities
You can't go wrong with a piñata at a birthday party and an elephant pull-string piñata fits this party perfectly! Fill it with piñata candy and toys and let the kids go crazy! And if they can't break it open, just pull the string!
Here are a few more fun animal theme games you can play at your safari with the older kids! For younger kids, you won't need too many organized activities. Make sure you have an assortment of age appropriate toys and they'll entertain themselves nicely.
"Find Your Animal" - Each child has to bring his/her own stuffed animal. Put all of the animals together to make one big pile of animals. Then one by one blindfold each child and have them try to find their animal. Give each child who chooses the correct animal a prize!
"Tarzan!"- This game is an old favorite (usually called "Hot Potato"). Have all of the kids sit in a circle, as one kid is chosen as the "leader". Begin passing a stuffed jungle animal around the circle, while the "leader" turns his/her head with eyes closed. Everyone must accept the animal and may not hold it longer than a second. At any point the "leader" can yell, "Tarzan!", and whoever has the animal is out. Continue to play until there is only one person left, and he/she is the winner.

Café Wha?, the colorful club with the basement level stage that has become a rite of passage for many legends, has recently lost their founder.
Manny Roth, who established the Greenwich Village club in 1959, passed away at the age of 94 from natural causes at his home in Ojai, California, according to his daughter. Upon creating the Café Wha?, Roth renovated the space from a stable, by laying down new floor and bringing friends to help decorate. It soon became a starter club, that had low pay, no liquor and little space. Yet, it was an essential first stop for up and coming performers.
That fact would notably ring true for two 1960s musicians, who would go on to become one of the biggest rock legends of all time; Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix. According to his memoir Chronicles: Volume One, Dylan described Café Wha? as "subterranean ", and described the performers as "an extravaganza of patchwork". Another notable story involved Hendrix, who was discovered by future manager Chas Chandler, who would later take him to England and make him the most talked about guitarist in rock. Other performers include Peter, Paul & Mary, Kool and the Gang, and even comedians such as Joan Rivers, George Carlin, Bill Cosby and Richard Pryor.
Roth, who a native of New Castle, Indiana, ran the Café Wha? until the early 1970s amid financial problems, and worked in various businesses including opening a restaurant in Woodstock. The café was back in the headlines two years earlier when Van Halen chose the site for an upcoming tour. The band's frontman David Lee Roth is the nephew of the Café Wha? founder.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck
Cranston, Rhode Island
"You know, truthfully, I think a friend is someone who you have positive communications with, so I don't know if I would define us as friends right now."
-Elisabeth Hasselbeck
Elisabeth Hasselbeck is best known for her heated verbal sparring with former colleague Rosie O'Donnell and now Whoopi Goldberg, as co-host on ABC's gab-fest The View. Widely recognized as "the conservative one," Hasselbeck has used her position on the hit talk show to become one of the most polarizing, incendiary figures on television, and one of the most visible and outspoken promoters of neo-conservatism. But no matter how much Hasselbeck beats her drums for God-fearing Christians everywhere -- making enemies all over the liberal-centric media along the way -- the former Survivor contestant is still one of the only reality TV stars to parlay her fame into a legitimate career in show business. Not even Barack Obama can take that away from her.
Elisabeth Hasselbeck BiographyBorn Elisabeth DelPadre Filarski to a Catholic school teacher mother and an architect father, Hasselbeck spent her formative years in between Cranston and Providence, Rhode Island, until she moved to Boston to attend Boston College, where she studied large paintings and industrial design. It was also there that she met her husband and father of her two children, former NFL quarterback Tim Hasselbeck. Before being cast on Survivor, Hasselbeck worked for Puma as a member of their design team.
After losing out on the $1,000,000 to personal nurse Tina Wesson, Hasselbeck began her career in television as a judge at the 2001 Miss Teen USA pageant and then as the host of he Style Network's bargain style show The Look For Less. When Lisa Ling decided to leave The View in 2002, Hasselbeck was involved in a three-way competition with Rachel-Campos Duffy and Erin Hershey Presley for the vacant spot -- a competition that Hasselbeck eventually won. She's been getting on the nerves of liberals and her co-hosts ever since.

College Hockey:North Dakota players docked scholarship money following police citations
According to the Grand Forks Herald, North Dakota coach Dave Hakstol is taking scholarship money away from four players after they received citations following this past season.
Three 20-year-old freshmen – Zane Gothberg, Colten St. Clair and Bryn Chyzyk – received citations for underage drinking, while sophomore Stephane Pattyn received a noise citation.
Gothberg's incident occurred March 31 after the team returned home from the West Regional in Grand Rapids, Mich. The other players received their citations last weekend.
"This is going to cost some people significant scholarship dollars and trigger other internal actions," Hakstol said in the report.
Four players were cited for underage drinking at a preseason party in September, including Gothberg and Chyzyk.
"We had the incident last fall [and] that jolted everybody," Hakstol added. "It resulted in our team making some good adjustments. We did the right things through the entire season, but the incidents and the decisions that have come since the end of the season just don't meet the standards."

I can load my library, but I cannot unload it with
LibraryUnload. I do have a
void WolframLibrary_uninitialize(WolframLibraryData libData) (which does nothing). I get the following error:
LibraryFunction::unloadlib: The library "/my/library.so" cannot be unloaded.
I am not loading any function after loading the library. The OS is Linux x86_64.
I don't seem to be able to unload not even the demo library:
This gets me the same error.
As worked out by Szabolcs and halirutan, I need to load one function at least (
LibraryFunctionLoad) to have the initialization function called, and so being able to call
LibraryUnload successfully. Yet, my ultimate goal is to be able to reload a new build of the library: this seems impossible because calling
LibraryUnload doesn't actually close the handle of the library, and further calls to
LibraryFunctionLoad reuse it. I checked with
lsof, and if I delete the library and try to reload it I get that the new file is ignored and instead a handle to the old file (tagged correctly as
DEL in
lsof) is kept.

Portsmouth - The U.S.S. Miami was formally decommissioned Friday in a ceremony at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard where the submarine was torched a couple years ago.
The Los Angeles class nuclear submarine, was not sunk by enemy fire. The submarine was destroyed by an American while safely docked in U.S. waters where it was being refitted for many more years of active duty.
After 23 years of service that includes launching missiles during the Iraq war it took only a lazy shipyard worker to inflict $700 million of damage to the submarine and prevent it from ever being placed into service again.
Casey James Fury, then 25, wanted to leave work early and set some rags on fire aboard the USS Miami where he was working. The fire spread through the sub's living quarters and the control center but did not damage the vessel's nuclear reactor.
Total damages, above and beyond the loss of the nuclear submarine, includes $71 million spent on initial clean up operations and repairs and about $54 million that it will cost taxpayers to scrap the sub.Fury set the fire on May 23, 2012 at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery. The submarine was being overhauled for duty when the lazy laborer torched it thinking the diversion would allow him to leave work early.
The Navy first intended to repair the sub at a cost of about $450 million, however repair estimates soared to more than $700 million which prompted the Navy to announce plans to scrap the vessel. About a year ago Fury was sentenced to 205 months in prison and ordered to pay $400 million in restitution by a judge who said he weighed his sentencing on Fury's lack of criminal record and the extent of damages. By all accounts the shipyard worker is unlikely to pay the $450 million fine.
Loren Thompson, defense analyst at the Lexington Institute, blamed the decision to scrap the USS Miami on "unpredictable budget pressures" signed off on by Pres. Barack Obama."The figure illustrates the kind of waste that results when unpredictable budget pressures force the military services to change their plans," Thompson said Friday.
The Democrat-led U.S. Senate has passed only one budget in five years and Mr. Obama has recently ordered significant cutbacks in military spending.
Paul O'Connor, president of the Metal Trades Council, blamed Congress and the federal sequestration cuts for not having $700 million to fix the boat. The Navy wanted to repair the sub, he said, but just couldn't afford it. "The waste is Congress not being clear in the budget. We haven't had a working budget for years. Every year is a continuing resolution from the previous year. It's no way to run a business. It's no way to defend our nation," O'Connor said Friday.
On the other hand, Navy officials decided that the $700 million repair cost to taxpayers would not be worth extending service of the sub for another 10 years, which is when it was originally scheduled to be decommissioned from active service.

Provisional and Territorial Records Guide
Linn County History and Records
On December 28, 1847, the provisional legislative assembly created Linn County from all of Champoeg (later Marion) County lying south of Polk County's southern boundary. In 1851, Lane County was created from all of Linn County south of Benton County. Linn County's boundaries were established with the creation of Wasco County in 1854.
The county seat was originally located in Calapooia (Brownsville), but in 1851 the legislative assembly passed an act establishing Albany as the county seat. The selection of Albany proved to be controversial and after much debate a special election was held in 1856 to decide the issue. Voters of the county were to choose between four locations: Albany, Sand Ridge, Brownsville, and Lebanon. The outcome of the election reaffirmed Albany as the county seat.
The general administration of Linn County business was placed in the county court, composed of two elected commissioners and a county judge. The county court met for the first time in December, 1849. Initially much of the court's time was spent establishing and maintaining county roads and licensing ferries. In addition, the county court had authority to levy taxes, act upon claims, erect county buildings, and license certain businesses. In its judicial capacity, the county court had probate jurisdiction, handled civil actions not exceeding $500, and heard criminal cases where the penalty did not involve imprisonment in the territorial penitentiary.
Under the Organic Act of 1843, provision was made for the election of an officer to act as clerk of the county commissioners and ex officio clerk of both the county court and the board of tax equalization. In Linn County, where there was no county auditor, claims against the county were presented to the county clerk. Other official duties of the clerk included issuing licenses, recording brands, making bounty payments, certifying military discharge, and recording conveyances.
Other important offices of Linn County government which were established in 1849 were justice of the peace, sheriff (ex officio tax collector), assessor, and the county treasurer. In 1850 the first county school superintendent was elected and in 1854 the first surveyor was appointed. The county school superintendent's office was abolished in 1851 and reestablished in 1855.
The county is currently bounded on the north by the Santiam River and Marion County, on the east by Deschutes and Jefferson Counties, on the south by Lane County, and on the west by the Willamette River.

On the most recent episode of "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta" we saw Momma Dee sing a few lines of her song to her son Lil' Scrappy. He seemed a little shocked that his own mom can sing as well as she did. Her voice is soulful and rich with a real gospel vibe. Of course by the time she finished singing, Scrappy admitted that his mom could have a music career on her hands.
Examiner recently interviewed the queen herself and asked about the new music. She has plans for so much more but this piece was inspired by her troubled upbringing and she said she wants it to really mean something. Momma Dee's song "I Deserve" is all about getting the love you deserve both from family relationships as well as romance.

According to ABC News on Monday, Robin Williams was found dead of a suspected suicide at the age of 63. Mara Buxbaum, his rep gave ABC News a statement that the Oscar-winning actor and comedian died this morning in his home in Tiburon, California.
People magazine says the well-known celebrity has been battling severe depression lately. The talented star checked himself into rehab in early July after battling alcohol and drug addiction throughout his life.
The Sheriff's Office Coroner Division reports that the death might be a suicide due to asphyxia, but a comprehensive investigation must be completed before a final determination is made. More information will be forthcoming after a forensic examination is done that is scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 12. Also, subsequent toxicology testing is to be performed.
This is a tragic loss for Williams' family, friends and fans. His wife Susan Schneider said in a statement, "This morning, I lost my husband and my best friend, while the world lost one of its most beloved artists and beautiful human beings. I am utterly heartbroken."
People magazine says the family respectfully asks for their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time. The family is hoping that the focus will not be on Williams' death, but on the countless moments of joy and laughter he gave to millions.
The entire nation is touched by this tragic death. President Barack Obama issued this statement: "Robin Williams was an airman, a doctor, a genie, a nanny, a president, a professor, a bangarang Peter Pan and everything in between. But he was one of a kind. He arrived in our lives an alien – but he ended up touching every element of the human spirit."
The President also reminded us of Williams' willingness to entertain the troops stationed abroad and those marginalized on our own streets.
Celebrities are expressing their condolences on social media about the 1978 star of "Mork & Mindy" and "Mrs. Doubtfire" that Williams had talked about starring in a sequel to the popular movie.
Robin Williams made the world laugh, now we mourn his death.

Flaming Cocktail 'Explodes' in Woman's Face at U.K. Bar
The unidentified woman was taken to the hospital.
An unnamed 24-year-old customer's face "was on fire" at Manchester bar Lola's after a flaming sambuca cocktail reportedly exploded near her, the Manchester Evening News reports. Some customers ducked for cover while staff at the "Miami-style cocktail lounge" called an ambulance; reports suggest the woman, who suffered burns on her face and chest, was standing at the bar talking to a friend when her hair caught on fire. The bar's proprietors, in the meantime, say they've never had a dangerous incident with a flaming drink and are reviewing safety measures. But, seriously, England: Apparently not the best place to order very hot or very cold drinks. [Manchester Evening News, Related]

Governor Paterson Discusses His Reelection Plans
Surprise! He has them!
After reading Geoffrey Gray's profile of Governor Paterson in New York this week, you probably just wanted more of the lovable guv. And now it's official: You just might get it. Paterson gave an interview yesterday with the Huffington Post in which he confirmed what we already basically knew — that he's running for reelection in 2010.
"I'd like to run for reelection and serve as governor as a full term, have an actual transition period and a real inauguration," he said. "I see this as an immense challenge, and one that most people think is insurmountable with the number of people leaving New York state. And if in any way it would have been viewed that I did something to ameliorate the problems … and brought people back, I would think that would be a satisfaction that I carried with me for the rest of my life."
The governor enjoys a 64 percent approval rating, so he's in a good spot at the moment. Do you think we could get him reelected in a vote of hugs?

Dundee receives grant funds for playground equipment
January 22, 2014
FULDA FREE PRESS/Submitted Photo
Recently, the Minnesota State Aerie President, Neil Rothbarth, presented a $2,000 Jimmy Durante Children's Fund grant to Dundee Mayor Wayne Paplow.
By Norma Dittman
Dundee City Park will receive upgraded play ground equipment later this year thanks to a Jimmy Durante Children's Fund grant made available through the Worthington Eagles Aerie #3282 and Sixth District Eagles. The Sixth District Eagles includes Worthington, Windom, Luverne, St. James, Tracy, Fairmont, Marshall, Sleepy Eye, and Redwood Falls.
Dundee City Clerk, Becky Clausen, learned about the grant and brought it to the attention to the council. "The City Council has been talking about updating the playground equipment for quite some time," Clausen explained. "There just hasn't been funds available to do an upgrade. The Council thought that it was a very good idea to apply for the Jimmy Durante Children's Fund grant. I submitted the grant application and the letter that they required about why we were seeking funds for the upgrade. We were very happy to learn that they awarded the City $2,000 to be used for the upgraded equipment."
Clausen said that Dundee has seen an influx in young children over the past year . "The children spend so much of their time playing in the park, that it was definitely time to upgrade the playground equipment for their safety and enjoyment."

Why should I put my child in a Preschool when I can stay home with them? That is a very good question. It is important that parents spend time with their children but it can be a benefit to your child to have them in a preschool as well. As in Psychology Today "Getting Ahead: Why Preschool Benefits the Brain it's important to lay the ground work in a child's skills and abilities before they reach school.
Socialize with peers- children need to learn how to be around their peers. They need to understand that in school they have to take turns and interact with children their own age. This can be easier for them to work on when they aren't so focused on the lessons they are trying to learn at school.
Interactions with teacher- Children need to get use to taking direction from a teacher. Understanding that they can trust a teacher to keep them safe and teach them new things.
Separation from parents- Separating from parents can be a traumatic experience for children. If you start them in a preschool the group sizes are smaller and the child could have more one on one attention to get used to being away from their parents.
Learn skills- A preschool setting is set up so that there are areas for learning experience. Your child will learn how to move through a classroom with other children. They will learn skills and do activities that you may not have thought of.
Ready for school- Preschools are in the business of getting children ready for school. They work on the skills that are needed for school and help with the socialization needed. In Vanderbilt University research news "Understanding the lifelong benefits of preschool" by Liz Entman talks more about the benefits of putting your child in preschool.
Putting your child in a preschool could give them the head start they need to be successful in school. Set your child up for success.

Art is my passion, not my profit
"Running never kills you. You'll pass out first."
I do long distance running. For years I did track and decided to upgrade to cross country, and then entered a couple 1/2 marathons (Hippie Chick, Vancouver 1/2, and Run Girl Run) and on October 9th, 2011, I ran the full Portland Marathon by myself with the inspirations of my boyfriend, step mom, and her sister. And I do believe I am the only 16 year old in my school who dropped out of cross country to run farther distances (;
I have chickens, horses, dogs, and cats, and I love them all.
I'm a wanderer. Restless spirit. I enjoy my alone time, and I can never stay in one spot too long. My room and my look is constantly changing because I refuse to fall into the rut of consistency of everyday life.
I hate politics and damn the government.

In one of the coolest Denver music collaborations in recent memory, singer-songwriter Megan Burtt and a few of her friends will take the stage Friday, November 15 at the Soiled Dove Underground to celebrate the release of a special CD project to benefit Love Hope Strength.
The album, titled In Good Company: Megan Burtt & Friends vol. 1, The Colorado Sessions, is pretty much what the long title suggests: Burtt collaborated in writing eleven original songs with some of the best songwriters and bands in Colorado, including:
- Covenhoven
- Rachel and the Kings
- Chris Heckman (The Epilogues)
- Chimney Choir
- Reed Foehl
- Chris Daniels
- Bop Skizzum
- Tyler Despres (Science Partner)
- The Congress, and
- John Magne (The Subdudes)
The collaboration was largely a labor of love with many people volunteering time and creative energy to put it together. Proceeds from the sale of the album will benefit Love Hope Strength, a Colorado NGO that saves lives through campaigning to add names to the bone marrow registry at concert events and by helping to build cancer centers around the world. Only 1000 "hard copies" of the CD are being printed, after which the album will still be available for sale digitally.
Friday's show at the Soiled Dove Underground (7401 E. 1st St.) is presented by Strings & Wood Concerts and will feature many of the artists who contributed to the album. Tickets are currently still available at press time at $15 each. Doors at 7:00 p.m.; show starts at 8:00. Soiled Dove Underground is a 21+ venue.
In Good Company and the CD release concert not only benefit a great cause, but the collaboration itself serves as a great example of what makes the Denver music community great. Let's sell this show out and support a great cause.

Hyperion grant helps launch Business Performance Management Center
Hyperion, the global leader in Business Performance Management software, and Fisher will open the first Center for Business Performance Management in the United States with a grant from Hyperion. The announcement was made on April 23 at Solutions 2006, Hyperion's global Business Performance Management conference, in Las Vegas.
The center will focus on enhancing business management education and research, and will create an interactive forum for academics, professionals and practitioners who are interested in the development and the practice of performance management.
"Ohio State's Fisher College of Business is committed to delivering the best in management education that will provide the greatest possible opportunity for our students to succeed as they take their place as business leaders," said Fisher Dean

Fisher team teaches public school
officials lesson in branding
Fisher MBA student Kathy Milette (left), Sharon Liete, Limited Brands executive and Mark Weedy, administrator for Eastland-Fairfield Career Center.
Some school administrators may not give much thought to their systems' public identity as a brand except at levy time, according to
Ralph Johnson
, director of the Center for Leadership for the Franklin County Educational Service Center.
That is why
Neeli Bendapudi
, a Fisher marketing professor and executive director of the Initiative for Managing Services (IMS), rounded up ten MBA students and
Mindy Stobart
, IMS associate director, to lead sessions on branding at the Spring Leadership Conference in April.
The day-long conference, "Communicating Organizational Messages and Building Trust in a Changing World," was held for public school administrators from nine area systems. Hosted and sponsored by the Limited Brands and the Franklin County Educational Service Center, the Fisher team and the Regional School Improvement Team of Central Ohio helped organize the event.
Bendapudi conducted the opening session on building brand equity. The 10 MBA students served as facilitators in small group activities, including leading school administrators in a brand awareness exercise.
"What this program is about is the ability for us to look at our craft of leadership from a different perspective," Johnson told the school administrators. "How do we gain community support to be successful in all of our endeavors?"
The solution offered by Bendapudi was that school systems needed to develop a brand identity. "Brand equity is the goodwill you create and how you want to be perceived. It's creating a culture," she said.
She told the participants that schools needed to view their various stakeholders—parents, students, teachers and the community—as customers and engage in relationship marketing to promote their brand. "A brand is a promise that is both functional and emotional," she said. "You need to be top of mind with your customers."

There is on-going development of generic EU CTD Dossier of Repaglinide, tablets, 0.5/1/2 mg.
Development of this pharmaceutical is carried out according to EU-requirements in country without patent protection or with Bolar-provisions. There will be no sales in those countries where this offer would constitute an infringement of third parties intellectual proprietary rights.
Repaglinide belongs to the meglitinide class of blood glucose-lowering drugs.
Repaglinide lowers blood glucose by stimulating the release of insulin from the pancreas. It achieves this by closing ATP-dependent potassium channels in the membrane of the beta cells. This depolarizes the beta cells, opening the cells' calcium channels, and the resulting calcium influx induces insulin secretion.
