The Gazette
MEDINA — Fans will gather next week at the grandstand of the Medina County Fairgrounds ready to hear the engines roar and listen for the loud crashes of the demolition derby.
Gary Bilek, one of its biggest fans will be front and center in the pit, cheering on the competitors with a special eye on Kristen Frantz of Seville and her brother Dusty from Spencer.
The one difference with Bilek is the 6-foot-1, 155-pound Barberton resident will rely mainly on his sight when the cars run headlong into each other. Bilek, who is missing the nerves that connect the inner ear to his brain, was born deaf, but that hasn't stopped his love for the sport.
"Like most guys, he likes the crash and the bang," Gary's wife Kim Bilek said. "He enjoys building those cars.
"He always enjoyed the building of the car more than the racing part. He's just as happy for the guys as he is for his personal achievement."
And Gary, 55, has certainly done his share of building. Since 1998, he has constructed over 50 cars for the demolition derby at the Medina County Fair. He's built three winning cars and watched Kristen Frantz finish second in 2011.
For the fourth year in a row, both Kristen and Dusty Frantz will have cars in the derby. The building of those cars has become a labor of love for Bilek, who works in the service department at the Medina Auto Mall.
A gearhead at heart, he's been around cars his entire life. In fact, as soon as the derby is over, he said he is already thinking about the next year's event.
"Gary comes from an automotive family," Kim said. "His dad decided he was going to learn a trade since he was deaf. Since (his father) was a mechanic, he shuttled Gary toward auto body work because he didn't have to hear to do it. Although he's very good at repairing engines. His family calls him the car whisperer.
"He has been a car junkie all his life. He decided when he first got his driver's license that he wanted to go and enter a car at the Barberton Speedway. The very first race he raced, he won. He did stock car racing for several years. The demo derby is an extension of that."
The racing aspect ended soon after he married his wife in 1981, but more because as she put it, "it's not an inexpensive hobby."
The desire did not, which is why you'll see Gary dancing and whooping it up along the fence as his cars try to become the last one standing.
He calls the derby his dream and can't picture a day when he's not working on cars. He gave a one-word answer to what the fair means to him.
That fun will play out this year with Kristen in a 1999 Ford Escort and Dusty in a 1966 Ford Fairlane. While some build cars to grab the impact of the head-on collisions and others make sure fluids are sealed, Gary has the answer.
"You build the car for the end of the race," he said.
That's how Keith Case of Seville won three times in Gary Bilek built cars and it's where the finalists gain the upper hand.
Win or lose, Bilek, who has a photo album overflowing with derby pictures, will be there sizing up the competition before the first crash and smiling every time one of the Frantz's knocks a contestant out.

Flames Improve to 4-1 With a 67-46 Win Over Central Methodist
Nov. 25, 2011
CHICAGO, Ill. - The UIC women's basketball team improved to 4-1 on the season with a 67-46 win over Central Methodist at the Flames Athletic Center Friday afternoon. Senior Jasmine Bailey led all scorers with 23 points and notched career-highs with 17 rebounds and seven assists, while senior Cree Nix added 15 points in her first game of the year. Senior Kiara Strickland racked up solid numbers as well with eight points and 10 boards. Sami Dunger paced the Lady Eagles with 16 tallies.
"I thought we did some things well today," said head coach Regina Miller. "I have to give credit to Central Methodist, they came out with a lot of energy. We need to work on our ball security. Twenty one turnovers is way too many for us."
The game began closely contested as the lead changed hands four times with in the first five minutes. Central Methodist owned a 9-8 advantage at the 15:21 mark, but then Bailey dropped in a layup, securing the 10-9 score for UIC. The Flames never relinquished the lead from that point on.
UIC held a 15-point lead at the 5:12 mark, but the Lady Eagles used a 9-4 run at the end of the first half bringing the score to 38-30. Six of those points came on back-to-back threes by CMU's Sammie Gathercole and Dunger.
The Flames tightened their defense in the second half as the Lady Eagles only scored 16 points and committed 15 turnovers.
Starting at the 17:30 mark, UIC went on a 13-4 run over the next eight minutes giving themselves a comfortable 55-36 advantage. Within that stretch, the Flames held CMU scoreless for almost six minutes.
UIC saw its lead rise to 20 with 3:57 on the clock as Bailey connected on layup, making the tally 62-42. The Flames held strong in the last four minutes and brought the final score to 67-46.
The charity stripe was UIC's ally once again today as they converted 19-of-25 foul shots compared to CMU's 3-of-4.
The Flames dominated the boards totaling 20 offensive rebounds which produced 24 second chance points and came away plus-27 in rebounding differential.
Sophomore Kierra Robinson and freshman Tashea Smalls logged their first minutes of the season as Robinson posted her first career points with three.
UIC will travel to Bloomington, Ill., on Monday (Nov. 28), when the Flames take on Illinois State at Redbird Arena beginning at 7 p.m. CST.

The Film:
Paul Verhoeven's "RoboCop" was one of the seminal science-fiction films of the 80s that would go on to influence several movies of the genre, which makes it no surprise that, like many other similarly important works, it eventually became the target of a remake. For this purpose, director Jose Padilha and screenwriter Joshua Zetumer have teamed up to update the classic with a new look and tons of new flashy special effects. However, that's merely what's on the surface. Looking into the narrative, we find a pretty similar storyline that centers on a cop, Alex Murphy (Joel Kinnaman), investigating a dangerous criminal. When he starts to get too close to the heart of the matter, a bomb is planted on his car, resulting in most of his body being severely burned.
Meanwhile, an intense debate has been raging on as to whether machines should be used in law enforcement, with the head of OmniCorp, Raymond Sellars (Michael Keaton), on one side, and a senator (Zach Grenier) on the other. In order to try and provide a more positive image for their side, Sellars comes up with the idea of merging man and machine, leading him to choose Murphy as the subject. With the help of Dr. Dennett Norton (Gary Oldman), RoboCop is created using what's left of Murphy. As the experiment goes on, Murphy gains incredible skills, such as being able to access the entire police database that's contained in his programming and having the ability to pinpoint known criminals and their associates in the city. However, as he digs deeper into the case files, he soon starts on a quest to do something that his programmers did not expect: solving his own attempted murder.
Before watching this remake, I made a purposeful decision not to revisit Verhoeven's classic (similar to what I did for the recent "Total Recall" remake) so as not to force myself to compare and contrast too much. It's been quite some time since I've seen the original, so that allowed me to approach Padilha's version from a fresher perspective. This new take on the story seems to have many of the elements right for such a remake to work, and yet, the whole thing just feels so cold and processed. I don't mean because of the enormous amount of machines used throughout the film, but because it's never able to generate any emotion for Murphy or what he's going through. In a sense, as Murphy's emotions are turned down (something that Norton is forced to do in an attempt to control him), the audience's emotional connection is turned down as well until we're left with something that's merely a joyless, unexciting, and perfunctory shadow of the classic. As if to cap off these running themes, it comes complete with an overly-long shoot 'em up finale that becomes monotonous very quickly. It's a shame too because a lot of the cast was very well chosen, including Oldman and Keaton, in addition to Samuel L. Jackson and Jackie Earle Haley in smaller roles. However, after sitting through the bloated two-hour runtime, it was all too clear that the filmmakers had ultimately failed to show why this needed to be remade at all.
"RoboCop" comes to Blu-ray in a 2.40:1, 1080p High Definition transfer of mostly good quality. There is the slightest hint of fuzziness to the picture, but it's nothing so major as to disrupt the viewing experience. The 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio couldn't be better, presenting dialogue, score, and every little sound effect in perfect clarity, so you don't have to worry about missing a single gunshot. Overall, while the video could have been sharpened up a little more, there's still very little to complain about in either department.
Special Features:
Deleted Scenes: About four minutes of scenes that don't add anything to the story, so they're not particularly worth watching.
RoboCop – Engineered for the 21st Century: A 30-minute look at the making of the film, featuring interviews with the filmmakers who discuss its themes, weaponry, and Murphy's mechanical suit. It's an intriguing and informative featurette that's worth checking out.
OmniCorp Product Announcement: A completely pointless inclusion that has descriptions of various OmniCorp products, including their robots and weaponry. Easily skippable.
Jose Padilha's attempt at remaking "RoboCop" has resulted in an emotionally hollow take on the tale that feels more like an excuse to fill the original story with tons of new special effects instead of taking the time to explore the existential dilemma of its central character. Without the essential emotional attachment to Murphy, the entire project was in vain from the start, turning this into just another big, loud action flick with nothing at its core.

Destruction, sorrow, and hunger? Sounds like a democrat. I'm a democrat too, mostly, but still all my liberal friends and their pessimism bug the crap out of me. That's the problem with democrats in the US. It's all "Perhaps we should try to overthrow the Bush admistration. On the other hand, it's pointless cause we're all doomed anyway."
Sorry, rant over. Humans can be very stupid, but I still don't doubt my hopes. I'm the kind of guy argues with their English teacher on the subject of how full of **** William Golding is. Humans can do evil things, but I just plain don't believe that humans are naturally evil. I get this from going concerts or hanging out at an all-night diner at 3:00 am; strangers are cool.
However, technological dependency is a different thing. But that's something I often think about. If I were to seclude myself from civilisation, how would I do? I'm still not sure. I think I could do it, but it's a lot easier to say it than do it.
Computer intellegence is an excellent topic. I think science fiction still hasn't firmly came up with a plausible idea for it. If they were to form their own identities and intellegence, they would be as different from humans that humans are from cockroaches. They learn 5,000 times faster than we do, and we would NEVER be able to find out how their thought processes work, because you'd have to be superintellegent to understand a superintellegence...ho ho.
But my previous post sort of tells how I feel about the future, which is I'm really not sure. But, just in the case the world
end in 2012, I'm gonna make the most of the time I have. If it doesn't end, and I'm an optimist as usual.
There's no earthly way of knowing which direction we are going. There's no knowing where we're rowing or which way the river's flowing. Is it raining? Is it snowing? Is a hurricane a-blowing? Not a speck of light is showing, so the danger must be growing. Are the fires of hell a-glowing? Is the grisly reaper mowing? Yes, the danger must be growing 'cause the rowers keep on rowing, and they're certainly not showing any signs that they are slowing. AAAGGHHH!!!

I recently had a chance to interview Nina Ljeti, an incredibly talented actress, filmmaker, and musician who you've probably seen in the feature films Child of God, Tar, The Letter, About Cherry, and many more. Despite her young age, Ljeti has not only written and directed a feature film, but she has also starred alongside some of the world's best actors including Winona Ryder, Jessica Chastain, Mila Kunis, and James Franco.
Check out our interview below to find out about Nina's upcoming feature film Memoria, starring Golden Globe winning actor James Franco, as well as her unique affection for playing male characters, and the unwavering passion that drives her creations.
PL: Why are you so passionate about film as a medium for expression?
NL: I love film because it uses many different artistic mediums to tell a story (writing, music, visual art, photography, performance). And unlike any other art, film is primarily and predominantly a collaboration with other filmmakers, technicians and performers. I think this is exciting because part of why I'm so passionate about film is that there is always room to learn more and to find different ways of expressing yourself. When you're working with a team, you can use this to your advantage to grow as an artist. You learn from your peers and your collaborators. I constantly try to find new ways to tell a story. I'm always looking for truth in my work.
PL:What is it about acting that you love?
NL: As I stated before, I am always adamant about being honest with myself as the artist, and the audience. The goal of the actor is find the truth and the life behind a character. This is so hard to accomplish, and that's what makes acting fun.
PL: Was there anything specific that happened in your life that made you feel the film industry was where you belonged?
NL: I can only say that from a very young age I envisioned everything in my life as if it was a movie. I was always writing scripts, always imagining where I would place the camera in certain situations. I will say that my father bought me a VCR when I was 3 (it was one of the first things he got me when we immigrated to Canada). That VCR was my prized possession. I was always watching movies.
PL: For Memoria, how do you feel about the film? When will it be released? How did the process change/help you grow as a director?
NL: Working on 'Memoria' has been an amazing experience. Because the budget was small, there will obviously be some faults in the film, but I also think that's what makes this film exciting. We are making something out of nothing. It's very DIY, punk rock. We're re-recording some of our RED footage onto a VHS tape to add depth and texture to the film. Because of that, I feel the film will be appreciated in an indie circuit. Currently, CAA is looking at the film. We plan on submitting it to TIFF, but if not, it will premier in early 2015 at BERLIN and SXSW.
This experience really helped me grow as a director. For obvious reasons. It taught me that a director must have incredible focus, energy and drive to lead a crew into production. I find that very thrilling. It also taught me that the script must always be revisited in production, so that I can remind myself of the line of characters, the story and maintain consistency in my work.
PL: Can you tell me about some of your other experiences as a director?
NL: Prior to 'Memoria' my favorite film that I directed was 'Jeffrey.' The script was short and sweet, and I had to figure out a lot of things as I went. I made the film for 900 dollars. Looking back, I kind of liked not knowing. I was overly confident, but at the same time I wasn't bound to any technical aspects of the filmmaking process. I was making a film purely as a form of expression. There wasn't any pressure or a desire to prove anything.
PL: Can you tell me about the project 'Collage?' What was your role? What was the intention of the overall project?
NL: 'Collage' was a multi-media performance art piece that combined music, dance, drama, and video. James (Franco) asked me to pick four plays and to write a script (which he would then stage at NYU). He also asked me to play the lead role, and to write original music for the project with my band. James and I created the piece together. I got to combine all my passions (acting, writing, filmmaking, music) into one piece.
We wanted to combine different artistic mediums into one stage performance. That was the original intention behind the project. The greatest compliment I ever received was during a final performance of the show. Michael Shannon (actor) approached me after a performance and told me that he thought I was absolutely brilliant, and that I should be proud of my work. He was so kind and generous. I'll never forget that he said that.
PL: I noticed you directed a music video for Liphemra—can you tell me about how you got involved with her? I know it's not released yet, if you're able to talk about the video I'd love to hear about it…
NL: I met Liphemra when I first moved to Los Angeles. We have very similar interests, and we are both driven, passionate women. She was familiar with my work as a director (she appeared as an extra in 'Memoria,' and is contributing music to the film), so she asked me if I would direct a video for her song "Bloodwork." We shot the video underwater with a go pro camera. It's super cool. It's not out yet because she just got signed with a record label, so they're timing the releases of her work very carefully.
PL: I read that you're a trained musician- what instruments do you play? Can you tell me about your training and how long you've been playing music?
NL: I've been playing music for 16 years. I'm a classically trained pianist (with the Royal Conservatory of Music). I also play guitar, bass guitar, and the saxophone. Music is a great passion of mine. My band, 'Yeah Well, Whatever', has performed in both 'Collage' and 'BirdShit.' I've written original music for both those performance pieces, as well as a couple films. Music is a hobby of mine, but I definitely like to apply it to my work as a filmmaker as much as possible.
PL: How do you think being a musician yourself adds to your ability to direct videos for other musicians?
NL: My understanding of music helps me not only as a music video director, but a film director in general. It helps me to understand the rhythm of life, of dialogue, and of sequences and scenes. Music teaches you this. It's hard to explain why, but it's a language you pick up when you are a studying musician.
PL: Can you tell me a little about your upcoming acting projects?
NL: Currently, I'm working on a film called 'Kurt.' In it, I play Kurt Cobain. It's a project that James (Franco) and I have been developing for a couple years. Nirvana is my favorite band of all time, so I'm very excited to be working on this piece.
PL: What has the experience of playing a male character been like for you? I know you played James Dean in 'Rebel,' what was that like? Are those your only two male roles so far?
NL: I love playing male characters. I find them so complicated and interesting, and I feel that I am able to bring something unique to them because I have the perspective of a female to add to the role. I've played male characters many times. I played James Dean in 'Rebel,' Stanely Kowalski (from a Streetcar Named Desire) in 'Collage,' Treplev (from The Seagull) in 'BirdShit,' Kurt Cobain in 'Kurt,' and I've modeled as a male many times for 7 For All Mankind.
It's so much fun to get into the mind of someone that is so far away from you, personally. It makes it that much harder to find yourself within the character, but all the more satisfying when you do. That's why I love playing male roles. For some reason, they come naturally to me.
PL: Do you have any upcoming directing projects?
NL: I am currently writing my second feature film. It's entitled 'Things You Missed (While You Were Gone).' I have recently applied to the Sundance Writer's Workshop, and am currently meeting investors and seeking funding for the film.

Smoking tobacco is ok. Drinking, usually until its right out of your system, but weed or anything else is dangerous. I understand needing a break but weed stays in your body, and your breastmilk for a long time. Weed is stored in fat cells, what's milk made up of? Those fat cells. So bad idea. If you really feel the need, just have a few drinks, don't feed or watch your baby whilst drunk. And smoking tobacco is not great either. The smoke which is all in your pores, hair clothes, or second hand is not good for a small baby to breathe in, their lungs are very small. I'm all for having some time to yourself just do the best for your baby or switch to bottlesposted 01/26/2013 by annie_bell
Just have some fun and recharge for your baby don't worry too much stress hormone is bad for supply. We have fed our babies thousands of years we have some filters to protect our milk . Sure your mom is excited. Maybe tho your baby will really need you after one night give your mom a shirt( unwashed) of yours with your smell to cuddle withposted 01/10/2013 by skylathomas826
okay ya i figured weed was a no no haha but i wasnt sure if cigarettes would be hard to get out of my system cuz when i drink i smoke and i dnt want my son to get any of the nicotine. but ya i have a hard time with my milk supply so i pumped enough bottles to tide him over until it is all outposted 01/10/2013 by proudmommy2020

Osaka, Masahiko
Osaka, Masahiko, drummer; b. Akita, Japan, 28 September 1966.
Best known for the quintet he co-led with Tomonao Hara (b. Kanagawa, Japan, Oct. 21, 1966). Hara, a protege of Wynton Marsalis, began studying trumpet in elementary school brass band, and became interested in jazz in college. Drummer Osaka, who grew up in a musical family, was awarded a scholarship to Berklee College of Music. He played in Delfeayo Marsalis's band, while studying in the same classes with Roy Hargrove, Antonio Hart, and Geoff Keezer. Osaka met Hara on his return in 1990, and the two began performing at Jazz Inn Lovely in Nagoya. Within a couple of years the band had a record out and have been consistent favorites among Swing Journal readers.

Jessica Lange, Evan Peters, and Sarah Paulson have been staples throughout the season changes. According to a March 29 report from New Now Next, several familiar faces will be returning for Season 4 of "American Horror Story." Much of the cast from "American Horror Story: Coven" is returning for another round of scary fun.
It was leaked a few weeks ago that Season 4 will be titled "American Horror Story: Freak Show." Jessica Lange will again be a main character as she steps into the role of a German immigrant trying to keep her business afloat. Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson will play important characters as well. Returning faces include Kathy Bates, Frances Conroy, Angela Bassett, Jamie Brewer, and Gabourey Sidibe.

MEDINA — A Medina woman says her life has been nothing but stress ever since a judge appointed an attorney to oversee her husband's medical affairs.
Former Medina County Probate Judge John Lohn in 2011 declared now-78-year-old Larry Nauth incompetent to handle his own medical and financial decisions because he has Alzheimer's disease.
Lohn appointed an attorney as medical guardian because Marie Nauth and her husband's children from a previous marriage couldn't get along and couldn't agree on which family member should oversee his affairs. Nauth became financial guardian.
The appointed attorney later resigned and in January 2012 a new one stepped in.
That's when Nauth said her troubles began.
"She has full power over my poor husband and I'm just kind of stuck with that," Nauth said. "It's not what I thought it would be like at all."
She's had trouble getting in contact with the guardian via email and telephone, Nauth said, which could seriously damage her husband's health.
"As soon as the hospitals find out there's a guardian, they don't know who they can talk to — even though I'm his wife," she said. "Huge mistakes can be made if they can't get ahold of her."
She said her husband once was admitted to a hospital while the guardian was on vacation, and they were forced to wait for confirmation from the attorney before medical decisions could be made.
Another time, Nauth said hospital nurses tried to set up a catheter for her husband to test for a urinary tract infection. She walked into his hospital room, she said, and found the nurses were failing to apply it correctly.
"I said I could take him into the bathroom and get the sample without all this trouble and I asked why they didn't come ask me," Nauth said. "They told me they couldn't tell me because I wasn't the guardian."
She said the guardianship just isn't working out for her husband.
"I think the Medina County Probate Court did my husband and myself a huge injustice by interfering with our privacy, our marriage of 28 years and his right to appoint me to be his legal guardian," she said. "Alzheimer's is a terrible disease and that's bad enough, but having a guardian for him is a joke."
Shorain McGhee, the court-appointed guardian, said she's always tried to do what's best for Larry Nauth.
"Normally, a wife would have a lot of power, but I have that power, and I understand that can be frustrating," said McGhee, who runs a law practice in Medina.
She said she passes along information to the family as needed and tries her hardest to address issues her ward's wife has with the situation.
"She even sent me an email while I was on vacation," she said. "I was in the middle of getting a pedicure with my daughter when I got the email and I took care of that situation as fast as possible — even on my vacation.
"Other times, she'll send me an email and I won't have anything to say in response, so I don't respond, and that bothers her."
McGhee was on a list of about 10 qualified attorneys to take on wards as guardians in Medina County. She was selected after the previous guardian stepped down in late 2011.
According to court documents, McGhee has been paid about $4,000 from the Nauth estate to serve as guardian for 19½ hours of work since January 2012. Included in bills are eight visits to Larry Nauth, as well as meetings, email correspondence and telephone calls with the family.
Under McGhee's guardianship, Larry Nauth has been put in Pine Valley Care Center in Richfield.
"I'll go out and see him every now and again, but Marie is there every day or every other day, so it just seems ridiculous to charge the estate to go and see him when someone's already there," McGhee said. "It doesn't make sense for a guardian to go and spend the money to do the exact same thing."
Under Ohio law, guardians are not required to visit their wards or ever meet them.
McGhee said Larry Nauth's best interest has been served with her as guardian.
"If it is over-burdensome on (the wife), why not file with the court and have the guardianship done away with?" McGhee said, adding the family could ask for a new guardian instead. "But I think it's in the family's best interest to have a guardian."
Medina County Probate Judge Kevin Dunn said the Nauth case is an unusual guardianship case.
"This isn't a pleasant situation," he said. "This is an extreme case."
He declined to comment more because the case is still pending, but said most disputes in probate court are resolved quickly and cleanly.
"Most aren't like this," he said.

The Bay County Sheriff's Office arrested two men Monday night for aggravated battery on Panama City Beach after their alleged victim filed a complaint.
At about 10:30 p.m. Monday evening, November 25, 2013, BCSO deputies responded to the Texaco Store at Front Beach Road and Laurie Avenue.
A man, bleeding from the mouth and nose and with his right eye swollen completely shut, wanted to file a complaint against the two men he claimed beat him up.
EMS arrived and the victim agreed to basic medical care but refused transport to a medical facility.
The victim stated to deputies he was living with several other transients in a wooded area near the old Ocean Opry building on Front Beach Road.
He claimed two men living at the same camp became angry with him when he failed to contribute money towards the purchase of beer.
It was then the two men jumped on him and beat him, causing his injuries and knocking out his two front teeth.
The victim identified the man who knocked out his teeth as Jacob Gosselin and his other assailant as Charles Wesley Strickland.
Due to the continued bleeding of the victim, EMS returned and the victim finally agreed to be transported to a local hospital.
Contact was made with Strickland and Gosselin and they were transported to the BCSO Beach Precinct for questioning.
Gosselin and Strickland gave conflicting versions of what occurred but both agreed the fight had taken place.
Gosselin wore a t-shirt covered in blood and Strickland's shoes were bloody.
The items were placed into evidence.
48 year old Strickland was arrested and charged with principle to aggravated battery.
33 year old Gosselin was charged with aggravated battery.
Both were taken to the Bay County Jail.

The Plague
by Albert Camus
The Plague Part 2, Chapter 9 Summary
- Rambert has had just about enough of this mess. If he can't leave Oran legally, he'll make plans to escape illegally.
- He has trouble making headway in this endeavor until Cottard overhears him discussing his plight with Rieux.
- Several days after this accidental eavesdropping, Cottard stops Rambert on the street. He (Cottard) has heard of an organization handles just this sort of business – the illegal escaping business, that is.
- Cottard himself has built up a "small fortune" by smuggling in goods like alcohol and cigarettes.
- Cottard introduces Rambert to a man named Garcia (who's a big deal in the smuggling business) and the three men go for a stroll.
- Garcia decides he's not the man for this job; Raoul is. They should meet him (Raoul that is) two days later, at eleven.
- After the covert meeting, Rambert thanks Cottard, and it becomes apparent that this is just another of Cottard's "I'm going to get everyone to like/owe me" endeavors.
- Fast forward to two days later at eleven. Cottard and Rambert are going to meet Raoul. Just then, Tarrou drives up in Rieux's car, with Rieux beside him riding shotgun.
- There's one of those great moments where every person tries to figure out just how much information every other person knows (as regards the impending illegalities, that is).
- Adding to the dramatic tension, M. Othon, the magistrate, comes strolling down the street.
- All five men engage in mild chit-chat, such as "Hey, what's up with you?" and "Oh, nothing, and especially not illegalities. How about that weather?"
- When the magistrate leaves, Tarrou declares him Enemy Number One.
- Cottard and Rambert continue on to meet with Garcia and eventually Raoul. Rambert agrees to pay ten thousand for his escape. They make plans to meet the next day.
- Fast forward again to the next day. Rambert meets Raoul for lunch and is introduced to a new and, expectedly, sketchy man called "our friend." Raoul makes a point to not use the guy's real name.
- "Our friend" is going to put Rambert in touch with someone else, who in all likelihood will put him in touch with someone else, and what we're thinking is that maybe six years and three plagues and fifty "friends" later Rambert might potentially make it to the front gates.
- Finally, as the meeting is drawing to a close, the "friend" (who also has a face like a horse) reveals that his name is Gonzales.
- Later, Rambert converses with Rieux and tries to justify the fact that he's sneaking out of town like a coward. He says he can't bear to be away from his "wife" in Paris any longer, since as you get older you have to "squeeze all [you] can out of life."
- On the big day, Rambert gets to the Cathedral for his appointment. When Gonzales finally shows up, he says to meet him again the next day.
- They try again the next day. This time, Gonzales introduces Rambert to two very young men, Marcel and Louis, who look like brothers. They set up yet another meeting.
- That night, Rieux and Tarrou show up to meet Rambert for a drink at the hotel.
- Rambert says he hopes to get out within the week, but Rieux and Tarrou argue that, if he stayed, he could be a great help to them in fighting the plague. Rambert doesn't exactly love the idea of sticking around and exposing himself to disease on a daily basis.
- The next day, Rambert is stood-up by his would-be smugglers. Dejectedly leaving the café meeting place, he realizes that he was so focused on the idea of escape that he hasn't really been thinking about the reason for it: the woman he loves.
- The next day, Cottard meets with Tarrou and Rieux to discuss a patient that miraculously recovered. Cottard insists that the man must have had something other than the plague, since once you have the plague, your number is up.
- Rieux counters that if you refuse to be beaten, there's always the chance of exception (hmm!).
- Tarrou tries to get Cottard to join the sanitary squad, but he replies that it's "not [his] job." Besides, he's making a fine living out of the plague – why should he want to stop something so profitable?
- Tarrou mentions that Cottard could be arrested, and the man responds by flipping out entirely, screaming and so forth and making a general public scene.
- Rieux is all "Sensitive much?" and Cottard reveals that he did something, years ago, that could get him into big trouble. It wasn't murder though, he hurries to assure them.
- Turns out, this is why he tried to hang himself.
- Rambert enters to find Cottard still shouting about how he isn't a bad guy just because he's profiting from the plague.
- Of course, Rambert is only there to see if Cottard can set him up for a second try with Gonzales. Turns out, not only is Cottard insensitive and self-serving, but he's also useless: he doesn't know where Gonzales lives.
- Rambert is none too pleased, but the next morning he and Cottard go to find Garcia There are several appointments set up and failures to follow through.
- By now, we're hoping there's some thematic point to all this repetition.
- Rambert then reveals (to Rieux and Tarrou) the thematic point to all this repetition: while he keeps experiencing glimmers of hope, he always gets his dreams dashed. It's just the same thing all over again – much like the plague.
- While the two men listen to "St. James Infirmary Blues" play on the phonograph (again, the same song over and over), they hear two shots in the distance.
- They assume it was some stray dog getting shot and disregard the ambulance they hear.
- Rambert comments on his not joining the volunteer sanitary teams (of which there are now five). Man, he says, is capable of many things, but not of suffering for a long time – or of being happy for a long time.
- Rambert continues that he doesn't believe in heroism, in dying for an idea. He only believes in living and dying "for what one loves." (This is important, by the way, and probably related to the previous conversations about abstraction.)
- Rieux claims that "man isn't an idea," and Rambert counters that, in fact, man is an idea, and a small, insignificant one at that, if he chooses to turn his back on love. That's the point, he says: mankind has lost the capacity for love.
- Rieux doesn't disagree about the importance of love, but he does correct Rambert by saying what they're all doing (with the sanitary teams and so forth) isn't heroism – it's "common decency." It's his job.
- Tarrou and Rieux head for the door, and Tarrou, who has been silent thus far in the argument, turns to Rambert. He informs him that Rieux, too, is separated from his wife. The two men leave before Rambert can respond.
- The next day, Rambert shows up at Rieux's place, ready to join the sanitary teams. Well, at least until he manages to get out of this place.

One of the success stories for me this year. The flowers just keep bloomimg (still going well in mid September). Very popular with the bees and insects. They also look much nicer than in the photograph. My tip would be to have a large mass of these flowers. One or two on their own do not do it justice. A large mass of them look spectacular. I've saved my seed for sowing next year.

Facing a charge of attempted 1st degree Intentional Homicide for the shooting of the deputy, Schneider was represented by attorney John Vurkees. Deputy Cory Dassow testified that he responded to assist Deputy Kowalczyk on a case involving Schneider's ex-girlfriend who told officers she was assulted in Rib Lake and Westboro. She told officers that Schneider "head butted" her and also bit her nose Schneider said if she tried to contact the cops, he would kill her.
Nest to testify was WI D.O.J. Special Agent David Forsythe. Following the shooting, Agent Forsythe talked with Kowalczyk at the hospital. He recovered two bullets, one which was removed from Kowalczyk's abdomen and a second bullet on the bed which had been lodged in the deputy's uniform.
Following his arrest, Schneider told Agent Forsythe that he saw the deputy arrive at his Westboro home. He didn't open the door as the deputy requested becasue he feared he would be arrested for the incident with his ex-girlfriend. After a brief conversation with the deputy, Schneider went to the bedroom, retrieved a :22 caliber rifle and shot down the hall at the deputy's head. When he saw the deputy jump off the deck he ran back to the bedroom, opened the window and waited for the deputy to arrive at his car. He shot three more times as the deputy attempted to get into his squad car.
As the injured Deputy Kowalczyk drove away, Schneider ran to an abandoned house next door and kicked a hole in the wall where he retrieved a sawed off shotgun which he had hid there years before.
Schneider left a message on his ex-girlfriend's phone saying "I shot a cop".
Surgeon Dr. Sweet told Agent Forsythe that Kowalczyk's injuries included a bullet wound to his abdomen and colon. The bullet missed an artery by one centimeter. The surgeon indicated that had the artery been severed, the deputy would have bled out in less than three minutes. The doctor said "he's lucky to be alive".
Kowalczyk also had facial injuries from the shattering door glass, and where the initial bullet grazed his face.
Judge Knox-Bauer ruled she found probable cause and set arraignment for December 20th.
Schneider is being held facing a total of 7 charges in the Lincoln County Jail on a one million dollar cash bond.

MOWATT (3/13-19, 3/20-26) AND HOLLOWELL (2/6-12; 2/13-19) NAMED PAC-10 PITCHER OF THE WEEK: Taryne Mowatt was named Pac-10 Pitcher of the Week for two consecutive weeks from March 13-26. From March 24-26 against Louisiana-Lafayette, Mowatt became the first pitcher all year to shut out the prolific Ragin' Cajun offense. Over the weekend she pitched 16.0 innings and gave up one run. The week before, Mowatt tossed a no-hitter and a perfect game at the Judi Garman Classic. In two games, Mowatt struck out 28 of the 37 opposing batters she faced. Alicia Hollowell has been named the Pac-10 Pitcher of the Week twice this year. Following the Kajikawa Classic (2/6-12), USA Softball named her its first National Player of the Week of the year for her performance. In three starts, Hollowell tossed no-hitters against No. 15 Northwestern and No. 6 Texas A&M, while surrendering one hit in a 2-0 win over Cal State Fullerton.
ALL-AMERICANS CLUTCH IN CONFERENCE: Over the last two years,
GET ?'EM ON, GET ?'EM OVER, NOT GETTING ?'EM IN: The Wildcats have been able to get runners on base during Pac-10 play this season, but have a nasty habit of leaving one another stranded at inning's end. In its 13 conference games, UA averages nearly seven and a half runners left on per game, including eight or more stranded in seven of the contests.
LOWE BACK AT THE TOP: Two weeks ago, Caitlin Lowe was fully cleared to participate in games. The two-time All-American returned to her usual leadoff spot in the batting order and center field on defense. Prior to suffering an injury to her left hand on March 19, the

Earlier in the season, Champion moved into sole possession of seventh place in career stolen bases. Entering this week, she has swiped 61 career bases.
THESE CATS DIG THE LONG BALL: Callista Balko's solo home run against UCLA on April 8 brought UA's team total to 34 homers in 37 games. Last year, the Wildcats hit 33 round-trippers all season (57 games); the team's lowest output since 1992. With four home runs on Sunday,

GO BIG OR GO HOME: Like the rest of her first-year teammates, Jenae Leles has needed some getting used to with Pac-10 play. One difference is that every one of Leles four Pac-10 hits have gone for extra-bases (three doubles, one home run).
CHAMPION DOUBLING UP: In 2003, Autumn Champion rapped out a career-high 89 hits... all singles. SPAN>In 2004 and 2005 she combined for three extra-base hits. This season, Champion already has five extra- base hits, including a triple, giving her two more XBH than she had accumulated in three years.
NOBODY EVER GOT ANYTHING FREE FROM UA: The Wildcat pitching staff has combined to strikeout 512 opponent hitters in 300 innings pitched this season. What's more, they have issued a total of 47 walks to opposing hitters. SPAN>That's one walk per 6.4 innings pitched and 10.9 strikeouts to the walk. In contrast, UA hitters have walked 155 times or 3.8 times per seven innings.
TAKING BALLS AND TAKING NAMES: When Kristie Fox isn't driving in one of her team-leading 40 RBI on the year, she may be doing a number of things, but one of them is not striking out. Fox has drawn 20 walks this year, while striking out just 12 times. The junior from
THREE FOR THE MONEY: Caitlin Lowe moved into a four-way tie on Arizona's all-time triples list, when she had her fourth three-bagger of the year and ninth of her career on March 18 against CSUN. Among the names Lowe had been tied with when she had eight career triples: UA senior associate athletics director Kathleen "Rocky" LaRose.
Lowe tied her career-high for most triples in a season with four.
Here's a breakdown of the Wildcats' RBI per-game: Fox .89, Mesa, .67, Roth .58, Leles .58, Lowe .58, Banister .54 and Mowatt .50*.
Last year, only two players (Kristie Fox and Jackie Coburn) ended the season with RBI-per-game ratios of better than .5.
*Mowatt's games played do not include contests in which she pitched but did not hit. Jill Malina has one RBI in three plate appearances.

In the multi-hit game category, Caitlin Lowe leads with 20, despite missing 10 games. Fellow All-Americans Autumn Champion and Kristie Fox are catching up to her, however, as they both have 14 apiece. Chelsie Mesa (9) and Laine Roth, Adrienne Acton and Callista Balko (8 apiece) round out the top of the list. All told, UA batters have combined for 94 multi-hit and 57 multi-RBI games.
TRIPLE THE FUN: Last year,
Through its first 45 games,
Autumn Champion's triple against Texas A&M on Feb. 24 was the first of her career. Prior to the third-inning hit, Champion had played in 185 games and had 578 at-bats before her first career triple. The slap hitter had 89 hits as a freshman in 2003 ?- all singles.

PINCH WHAT? Taryne Mowatt (vs. UNLV on March 16) and Danielle Rodriguez (vs. UCLA on April 9) are the only two pinch hitters Coach Candrea has sent to the plate this year.
PINCH RUNNERS: Kelly Nelson has appeared as a pinch runner in 29 games for UA. SPAN>In doing so, she has scored 10 runs. Jill Malina and Danielle Rodriguez have appeared as a PR in 12 and 13 games, respectively. Rodriguez scored the game-winning run in UA's 2-1, nine-inning victory over Baylor on March 12.
DEFENSE WINS WHAT? With 24 only defensive hiccups in 1,046 fielding attempts, UA has a .979 fielding percentage, which is second to only Stanford's .983 percentage in the Pac-10. Opponents, on the other hand, have committed 51 errors for a .958 fielding clip. UA is error-free in 26 games this season, including all three contests last weekend.
NOT AFRAID OF A CHALLENGE: As always,
EARLY SIGNINGS: Head coach Mike Candrea announced that UA has received four National Letters of Intent for the 2006-07 academic year from pitcher Amanda Williams of Brentwood, Calif., catcher/third baseman Stacie Chambers of Glendale, Ariz., shortstop/utility K'Lee Arrendondo of Tempe, Ariz., and pitcher/third baseman Sarah Akamine of Escondido, Calif.

Raymond Felton, the 29-year-old point guard for the New York Knicks, was arrested in the early morning hours of Feb. 25 in New York City, where he was charged with two felonies of second- and third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, and, a fourth-degree charge of criminal possession of a weapon – a misdemeanor.
USA Today reported that, according to court papers in N.Y., the second-degree felony alleges Felton "knowingly possesses a loaded firearm," while the third-degree felony states he "knowingly possesses a firearm which has been defaced for the purpose of concealment or prevention of the detection of a crime or misrepresenting the identity of such firearm."
The second-degree felony charge carries a maximum sentence of 15 years if convicted, and the third-degree charge carries a maximum sentence of seven years if convicted.
With N.Y. maintaining some of the strictest gun laws in the country, many media analysts are calling Felton's future with the NBA into question.
Sports Illustrated reported that the NBA could suspend Felton; or perhaps the Knicks could use the charges posed against him to void out his current contract.
Felton's contract calls for him to earn $3.6 million this season, $3.7 million next season and a player option for $4.0 million in 2015-16.
Felton appeared in Manhattan Criminal Court today to face those gun charges at his arraignment. Fox News reported that he was released from custody on $25,000 bail. The good news for now is that under the terms of his bond, Felton will be able to travel out of state with the Knicks for away games.
The point guard is entering divorce proceedings with his estranged wife, Ariane Raymondo-Felton. It was Ariane's lawyer that turned in a loaded Belgian pistol to police in N.Y. and claimed that it belonged to Felton. Ariane said she no longer wanted the weapon in her home.
At today's arraignment, Judge Diana Boyar ordered Felton to stay away from his wife.
"Mr. Felton has no interest in having contact" with her, one of his lawyers, James Walden, told the judge. Court records show she filed for divorce from Felton last week.
Felton is in his ninth season playing with the NBA. In addition to the Knicks, he's also played with the Charlotte Bobcats, Denver Nuggets, and the Portland Trail Blazers.

Ample venture funding is available to companies in Silicon Valley and beyond. How to meet the right people and say the right things? How to charm investors? 'Charm'; Really??
By account of venture experts and successful serial entrepreneurs charm means a lot; it means whether you get funded or not! Of course, the value proposition, the business idea, the business model and the core values of the startup leaders are the focal point. However, charming investors can add the spice and final tipping in fine tuning their decision to either 'let's go!' or 'not interested'.
Alex Vieux, named by business leaders as "The ultimate entrepreneur", is the chairman and publisher of Red Herring and CEO of Herring International. Red Herring runs several conferences, including Asia, Europe, Americas, and Global, which are focused on innovative startups in finance, mobile, Cleantech, Internet technologies, social, and software solutions for various business domains. Through Red Herring Top 100 and other events, Vieux analyzes the potential of approximately 2,000 startups each year.
At the Red Herring North America this past week, Vieux invited 200 pre-selected, mainly late-stage startups and companies, to vie for the coveted Red Herring Top 100 List. Most of the presenting businesses have already climbed up the success ladder, with more than one funding series, showing significant sales, some of multi-million deals, and an impressive list of customer acquisitions.
The Red Herring top 100 lists are highly recognized. The lists and awards highlight the most promising startups from Asia, Europe and the Americas. Entrepreneurs are encouraged to apply for a thorough review in a rigorous 3-step process that looks at all aspects of the company, and compete on awards. Since 1996, technology industry executives, investors, and strategists have valued the 100 lists as a credible tool for discovering and advocating the most promising private ventures from around the world.
Vieux, whos contributions to the IT industry span more than 20 years and include co-founding two banking software companies, has been involved in entrepreneurial activities and incubation for many years. He currently serves on the boards of several international public and private companies, and also active in public service. Vieux has been highly recognized in academia, as a visiting professor and instructor, at several universities in Paris, France. "Red Herring provides numerous opportunities for the participants to meet, share, learn, collaborate, and forge partnerships," he said. The atmosphere at Red Herring is very professional, elegant, yet relaxed. Throughout the two and half days of conference, you could see many hand-shakes and small groups side conversations, investigation potential business and collaboration opportunities.
Entrepreneurs: Don' t go to every investor
In several panels, venture capitalists (VCs) shared learned lessons and recommended constructive feedback to the entrepreneurs in finding the best funding options and the best match. Vieux summarized the message: Don't go to the highest priority investors on your list; keep the top ones for later, after you have refined your pitch and learned lessons. In the last step, approach the top 3 investors on your list. At that time be sure on how you stage your game and what you wish to present in the best possible way. He also said "Do not approach the quest for funding as a chase game, but keep it targeted. The shot-gun approach doesn't work - it is not a video game!" Vieux emphasized that the focus is on the founder or CEO - the person, as well as the team members. Therefore, he advised to simply "Be yourself".
Another recommendation: read between the lines; it's not only what is being explicitly expressed as feedback. Often, nuances and tone are crucial for the entrepreneur to understand: While being tuned to VCs questions while you pitch, try to gauge the potential implications in what is spoken and also the unspoken: are they really interested? Is your pitch too long or too detailed? Are the investors engaged or do they seem distracted (or even bored)? Are they asking about your availability for a follow up? Are they asking about your next steps? If this is a deal the venture firm is interested in pursuing, they wouldn't want you to go to another funder. Etc.
Last, pitching is not the end-of-the-road: Later on, keep the investors in the loop, by providing occasional short updates. For example, let them know when you acquired a new significant client, or added significant features to your offering.

After 53 Premier League appearances for the Reds, the Spaniard got on the scoresheet for the first time and celebrated with a thumb-in-mouth gesture for his soon-to-be babyJose Enrique scored his first ever Premier League goal after 161 appearances for Newcastle and Liverpool during the Reds' 3-0 win over Wigan and dedicated his goal to his son, who is set to be born in the coming weeks.
The Spaniard's strike, alongside two from more regular scorer Luis Suarez, sealed a victory that took his side up to 11th in the table after 12 games.
After a tough start for new manager Brendan Rodgers, Enrique feels that a recent upturn in results is a reflection of generally good performances that have not been getting that which they deserve.
|Jose Enrique is 11/1 with William Hill to score the last goal in Liverpool v Young Boys
"We have to keep playing like this because then I think the points will come.
"Of course, I am happy for my goal. I have a kid on the way and there are not many weeks left until he is born so it was for him. It is a great feeling."
The former Villarreal defender is not known for his goalscoring and admitted that his celebration reflected as much.
"To be honest, the first thing I wanted to do was put my thumb to my mouth but then I didn't know what to do because I don't really score," he continued.
"But the most important thing is another three points. I am happy about my goal but it's about the team."

The St. Louis Cardinals have agreed to terms with RHP Bryan Dobzanski, their 29th round pick, to a $700,000 bonus. The recommended bonus amount for any pick after the 10th round is $100,000; the $600,000 difference will come out of their bonus pool.
Dobzanski was committed to Louisville; he told the Cardinals when he was drafted that it would take $750,000 to buy him out of that commitment. The righty has a fastball that touches the low 90s, but should be able to add velocity as he continues to mature. He ranked 73rd on Scout.com's Top 116 Draft Prospects.
Under the current draft rules, Major League Baseball has assigned a value to each pick in the first 10 rounds; the dollar value of those will make up the draft pool each team has to spend. If a team exceeds their draft pool by up to 5%, a team is taxed on the overage. If the team spends more than 5% over their pool, they will lose future draft picks. Any pick after the 10th round has a slot value of $100,000; if a team spends more on one of those picks, as the Cardinals have in this case, the overage will be applied to the bonus pool.
Prior to the deal, the Cardinals were $448,500 below their max pool amount (without being taxed). The Cardinals were able to make this large commitment by signing some college seniors for below slot deals, which has become common practice. The Cardinals will now be $251,500 over their pool amount, so that amount will be taxed.
Dobzanski is the 28th player the Cardinals have signed from their draft class. His signing means that the team will not be signing 11th round pick Justin Bellinger; Bellinger would also require a large bonus to bypass college, but the funds won't be there now.
