Readers share views on lowering of bail for Darius Ewing, accused of setting puppy on fire
Re: "Bail cut for suspect in dog's death — Hearing exposes racial divide over handling of animal cruelty case," Saturday news story.

• UPDATE: Judge lowers bail for Dallas man accused of burning puppy
• Humans can be real animals: Letters about Justice the dog
Bail is too low
This article has revealed one glaring issue with our justice system. If the $50,000 to $100,000 bail for Darius Ewing, who set fire to a puppy just to watch it die, is higher than the typical bail for "heinous crimes against humans such as rape and murder," then the bail being set for all heinous crimes is far too low.
Ewing, in my opinion, needs to spend some time in jail for his part in killing the puppy. This is not a civil rights issue. There are no racial issues here, and to counter Rebecca Williams, he is not a "boy" and he is not the victim. He is an adult male who allegedly helped burn a puppy to death.
And yes, Ms. Williams, that puppy is more important than Ewing's life because the puppy has inspired, in many people, unity, love, concern, tenderness, sympathy, joy, deep sorrow, gentleness, generosity and a profound sense of every creature's vulnerability and meaningfulness. If Ewing is able to develop into a man who can inspire these same responses in his fellow human beings, his life will then be as important as that of Justice.
The race card? Really?
Please help me understand on what planet Jim Crow laws have anything to do with the brutal torture of an animal.
What if it had been a helpless baby? Jim Crow still applicable? This isn't about race. It's about humanity!
Dog torture is newsworthy
I was appalled at the comments of Rebecca Williams, a member of Justice Seekers of Texas, in regards to the hearing for the accused in the killing of Justice. ("There's a murder case upstairs with one camera and 10 cameras down here about a dog.")
Apparently Williams doesn't own a dog, or she would know firsthand why so much attention is being paid to this case. And must we always bring civil rights into the equation? It doesn't matter what race the person is, it's the cruelty of the crime that justifies the high bail.
Do you really want this person back out on the street? Apparently Williams does.

The Red Cross said it has several managers who are trained as nurses and mental health officials who will be on their way to the region.
Another 40 to 50 volunteers are also on standby and could be sent to the region with just 24 hours notice.
"We have trained Red Cross volunteers that are ready to roll within a 24-hour notice to respond to a shelter, to provide hot meals, to provide food, to provide mental health and health services," said Eric Lynes with the Red Cross.

Great puzzle!
An interesting underpromotion puzzle. I would like to see it played to the end, though after g8=R there are many variations. I think g8=R is the only way white can win. Am I right?
Then, I think it is necessary to get the black King away from the corner to avoid stalemate. Then, I think white can force a checkmate, but I may be wrong. I played it out to where Kings were in opposition at e6 and e8 and White moved Rh8#. I know black could have made some different moves and perhaps prolonged the game, but I don't think he could have avoided checkmate with the white king on the sixth rank and the black king forced to stay on the eighth.
Can any endgame guru tell me if I am right or wrong on that?
Must always be aware of using the under promotion idea.
Post 90. it is checkmate. The rook is pinned.
I love the knight life!
Really weird. Nice though.
Would it be more beautiful if the knight was at c5 instead of d6?
Umtrzo, d6 has to be played because when the black king moves to a5, the white king is actually under check by Rb5! So, this is actually quite nice!
At first I was very backward... having the white king on the 8th rank through me. I thought I was looking at a board from black's perspective... not a King on 8. When you do that it makes you think of your pawns capturing the wrong direction etc. Once I realized the King was on 8 finding the underpromotion was easy.
the hardest part of this puzzle was trying to figure out which way white was going lol
Good one!
kool i got it on ma first try too.... how awesome
14 Hours Alice I am going to send you to the moon.
Promotion to a Knight seems really popular in these puzzles (it's the third one I've seen in only a month or so). Is it because it's so unusual in normal playing & is meant to put us off our guard ?
Threw me for a loop...
happy fat Tuesday

Ford Model
i changed the stalk cos i broke the indicator side just the plastic which connected it to the rest of the unit all the electrical components were working fine before i changed them over
the stalk has been correctly fitted and now when the old stalk is refitted it still doesn't work. i checked the fuses by the steering wheel and none seem to have blown what i'll do is buy a job lot of fuses and change the lot as i haven't a clue which one is for the wipers i'll also take the new unit off and make sure the connections are kosher and i'll let you know how things work out
theglad posted a topic in Ford Fiesta Clubhey all i'm new to the forum so be gentle lol this morning i changed my indicator/wiper stalk on my mk5 fiesta and since the change my wipers don't work. they stuttered when i changed the stalk over but now they don't work at all even when i put the old stalk back on it made no difference. looking over the fuses i can't see any which have blown so i'm hoping it's not the motor packed in. has anybody else had any similar problems? all the best Jamie

We just looked at a list of movies done in 1.78 and 1.85. But of course many movies are done in the wider screen 2.4 format. Most of them are dramas or the big action/adventure films as opposed to, say, romantic comedies, but 2.4 films are made in all genres. As examples, the following movies were filmed in the 2.4 format....Lord of the Rings

If you are looking for a small and intimate castle wedding with just the bride and groom present, we present our "Weddings for Two" recommendations.
Forter Castle was originally built in 1560 by ther Ogilvys of Airlie as a fortified house, and was destroyed in 1640 by the Duke of Argyll...

Integrating Web Leads into Your Sales Process
Leads, leads, leads! Closing sales is all about the quality of the leads you acquire and how many of them you have.
In all my years of hiring, training, coaching and firing sales people, I've seen entry level sales people set company records and perennial quota busters crash and burn based on the leads they're chasing.
In most businesses, sales leads come from at least two or three sources. Unfortunately, most sales people treat all leads the same.
That simple fact can be killing your sales reps and holding your company back from even greater heights.
All leads are not the same. Obviously, referrals from existing clients are more valuable in general than a name from the list of folks that signed up to win the free drawing in your trade show booth.
But what about a lead from your website? In many businesses where people visiting your site and filling out a form requesting info is not the most common source of leads, these "web leads" are treated as less valuable by the sales team. That's in part due to the fact that a sales person will have more invested in obtaining a referral from their current client.
A web lead is actually one of the most valuable leads you could ever have in several ways!
A referral is someone that your current client believes could be interested in your products or services. The problem here is that your client probably is not the best judge of what makes a good prospect for you. They are also not likely to really know if their friend is actually in the market right now. They are more likely to just think that "they could use" your product or service.
A web lead on the other hand, has demonstrated their interest in your company by their own actions prior to your ever talking to them. They stopped doing what they do for a living to pull up Google and search for something related to your company. Depending on what your company offers, they probably weren't just doing it for fun! Just by taking time to perform the search, they've demonstrated that they need something.
So, assuming that they have the money and authority to buy what you're selling, then this is a great lead!
And there's the rub… you may find that you get many web leads that really need and want your products and services but, they're more of a potential user or beneficiary than the person the company has given the authority to decide and spend the money
This means you need to be aggressive about qualifying these leads early in the process. I've seen lots of businesses spend money on their web sites and search campaigns just to overload their sales reps with leads that can never spend a dime. The good news is that its easy to do. Many times, just adding an additional input box to your web form can filter out the "tire kickers"… like Title.
You'll also find that the lead's "buying cycle" can vary greatly. Some are looking for something NOW. Others are investigating options that they can add into their budget for next year.
Bottom line, you need to have methods to be sure that your reps are qualifying the leads properly up front and allocating their time toward the most qualified leads with the potential to buy in the short term.
That sounds like countless hours in sales meetings teaching all your reps the finer points of qualifying and follow up management right?
Good news! It can be extremely easy and time efficient to set up. More importantly, setting up a system to manage the qualification and follow up for incoming web leads can be like pouring rocket fuel in your sales engine.
Here's a step by step guide:
- Get a contact management system in which ALL new leads from ALL sources can be added.
- If there will be more than 5 or 10 a day, be sure that when a web form is completed on your site, the lead is added to the contact management system automatically. Many vendors offer this capability at affordable prices.
- Track the search that was performed. Again, many vendors offer this capability. As above, if your sales rep knows the specific search phrase that was used, they are empowered to quickly and easily qualify and assist the lead.
- Add fields to your system that allow the sales rep to enter the answers to the top few qualifying questions directly into the database. Use standardized drop downs, etc. in order to keep data consistent and data entry fast.
- Create lead nurturing systems for the leads that don't qualify. This is key! If your sales rep has an easy way to be sure non-qualified leads are "touched" on the appropriate schedule, they're much more likely to "let go" and avoid spending too much time repeatedly chasing the same old leads.
With a system like this in place, you can be assured that you'll be able to measure the return on your investment in your web leads. You'll be able to track the results by search words and phrases and their level of qualification. This information is crucial in optimizing things in the campaign itself. You'll also be able to ensure that your reps are pursuing only those "worthy" of their time. You may want them to continue to prospect by cold calling, asking for referrals and other methods. You need to know that your reps won't be overwhelmed with non-qualified web leads so that they can continue these productive activities. Of course, a system like this can help you measure and optimize these other prospecting efforts too.
The bottom line is that you cannot manage what you can't measure. One of the most amazing things about advertising on the Internet is how measurable the whole process is. Making sure to maintain the same level of measurability in the sales process allows you to compare all advertising and prospecting investments objectively. This lets you tune the engine to run at peak performance on the fuels you're feeding it.

Very informative post. Getting a lead is the first step, but managing it is definitely the essential ingredient to ROI.
Dr. Carolyn Clansy Miller's last blog post..The First Step to Success
Thanks Carolyn!
You're exactly right. Even if we don't sell a lead on the first go-round, there are plenty of ways to efficiently turn that lead into $$$ over time.
Craig Klein's last blog post..Its all in how you say it
Very useful advice, Carolyn. It is very important to track the leads and be able to manage them and understand what your sales cycle looks like when it comes from the web. Thanks!
Glad to see you talk about this subject. So many companies get caught up in the "more traffic" mentality, instead of making the most of the traffic that they already have coming to their site.
Exactly right. A "no" is more often then not, not a no forever. 😉
Dennis Edell's last blog post..Would You Like To Sponsor My *Best Blog Review* Contest?
Great point Tyler! In my view, you should optimize the sales process for the leads you have coming in to ensure its as efficient and effective as possible and THEN ramp up traffic. If you're doing the sales part less than efficiently, then spending more on traffic just worsens that problem.
Craig Klein's last blog post..Its all in how you say it
What do you recommend as the best contact management system for a solo-preneur or a small company with only a few employees?
Full Disclosure – I founded SalesNexus.com so, I can't say I'm objective.
That said, we are the online contact management system designed for small businesses that competes head to head in features and capabilities with the bigger guys.
I hope you'll check us out. Here's a page that compares our service with our biggest competitor: http;//www.salesnexus.com/betterthansalesforce.php
Craig Klein's last blog post..Close More of Your Web Leads
Great post. This reminds me of the movie Glengarry Glen Ross. All of the real estate sales reps are complaining about how weak the leads are, but their boss points out "A customer doesn't walk on the lot unless he wants to buy."
Your web leads are valuable. People usually don't search for things just for the hell of it.
Eric Brantner's last blog post..Integrating Web Leads into Your Sales Process
Thanks to everyone for all the great comments and insights!
Yes Eric, I love GGR too! I've used snippets in presentations.
Craig Klein's last blog post..Close more web leads – one more thing!
You know, there are actually an Internet leads software that will allow you to keep track, nurture, and gather your leads all in one. This way, everything becomes centralized, automated, and devoid of any errors.
Great points! A small business can nation wide or even global reach through search marketing.

Deals from 2006-'07 Buyout Peak Still Awaiting Realizations
Those boom-time buyouts are still weighing on firms' portfolios.
New research released by Preqin said private equity funds still hold 72% of portfolio companies purchased in 2006 and 81% of companies purchased in 2007, a period when buyout activity had reached a fever pitch.
The report suggests that the lack of exit activity for 2006-era buyouts highlights a harsh financial climate that is making M&A waters choppy for firms.
"[T]he fact that many transactions made in 2007 and earlier are still not sold suggests that many GPs active during this period have held onto investments longer than intended," Preqin said in a statement discussing the research.
But Preqin tells limited partners not to fret.
"Investors in funds from this era can be reassured by the fact that GPs are making the most of any exit opportunities provided to them," the data company said.
Between 2006 and 2007, buyout activity was at record levels, totaling $1.3 trillion. That total is "significantly higher" than all the buyout transactions made from 2008 to the present, Preqin said.
And despite the gloomy exit outlook, firms have been making do when a window presents itself. The second quarter of last year saw $130 billion worth of exits, a record period for the asset class, Preqin said.
Of the portfolio companies currently held by general partners, 11% were acquired in 2006 and 14% were bought the following year. About 16% of GPs portfolios' consist of companies bought prior to 2006, accounting for 14% of the total value of deals yet to be fully realized.

Parkersburg City Park Fourth of July Carnival 2013
FAIL! It reeked of urine, body odor and cigarette smoke. The rides look damaged, repaired and damaged again and their restraints were laughable at best. I can't believe carnival workers would get down on their knees to talk to my young children with a cigarette hanging out of one corner of their mouth. I can't believe parents let their children go to the carnival dressed like they were, when half the guests looked like they had just gotten out of jail and most looked unemployed/unemployable. During our entire visit, we didn't see a single law enforcement officer. If DHHR held reunions, this is what it would have looked like. For the safety and health of my children, we'll never visit a local carnival again.
Member Comments
It is a loss to know that a hateful person like this has decided not to grace the smelly unemployed low-lives of the valley with their presence. A shame really. I always imagine this kind of person thinks that they are the only kind that should have the right to exist. Stay far away tinfoil and let us keep breeding and smelling until you have no choice but to move out of our area. Bu-bye!

10 things you need to know about Satya Nadella, tipped to be Microsoft's next CEO
- From: New York Post
- February 01, 2014
HERE are 10 things you didn't know about Satya Nadella, 47, the likely next CEO of Microsoft, where he would be only the third CEO in the company's 39-year history. Bill Gates and current boss, Steve Ballmer, are the other two.
• Owns 113.666 shares of Microsoft stock - worth about $4.2 million. Current CEO Steve Ballmer owns 333,252,990 shares, or 4 per cent of the $300 billion company.
• Earned $7.7M in total compensation in 2013, the 2d highest amount in company.
• Played cricket in high school growing up in Hyderabad, in southern India.
• Advice to younger engineers: "Be passionate and bold."
• Graduate of MIT - but not the one in Massachusetts. Got a 1988 degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Manipal Institute of Technology, one of the top engineering schools in India.
• First name is actually Satyanarayana. A real engineering geek, he started at Microsoft in 1992. • Worked on Windows, Bing, Servers and now is now Executive Vice President, Cloud and Enterprise at the software giant.
• Helped bring Microsoft's Office 365 to the cloud. The company's cloud business, under Nadella, grew to a $20.3 billion operation last year, up 22 per cent from when he took it over two years earlier.
• Microsoft's commercial cloud service grew 107 per cent last year, under Nadella's leadership.
• Nadella also has a Master of Science degree in Computer Science from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, and a Master of Business Administration from the University of Chicago.
• Has just 3,549 followers on Twitter - no wonder, his last tweet was three and a half years ago. "HTML 5 - what fun!" he tweeted. but it is better than Ballmer, who has yet to join the Twitter-sphere.

The British Isles' version of Gentleman's Quarterly announced a bunch of superlative awards on Twitter yesterday, including its bestowal of "philanthropist of the year" to Tony Blair: ex-prime minister, herald of New Liberalism, and captain of private-sector giving.
Blair was Britain's highest-elected official from 1997 to 2007, famously pressing to launch the flawed Iraq War on a thin pretext, which may have contributed to an air of Middle East instability and skepticism against Westerners that has grown particularly complicated this summer with the rise of ISIS in Iraq.
A multimillionaire from political consulting since leaving office, he also made headlines just last week when a letter surfaced showing he had advised one high-paying client, the dictator of Kazakhstan, on how to publicly defend the massacre of 14 civilian protesters. He also came under scrutiny for diverting his millions of pounds in profits through a complicated series of shell corporations that paid a surprisingly small sum in taxes.
"The Tony Blair Faith Foundation provides the practical support required to counter and prevent religious conflict and extremism in order to promote an open-minded and stable society," GQ wrote.
Blair accepted the award with gusto. "I feel the pulse of progress beating a little harder," he said in GQ's press release.
It's unclear what comes next for Blair, but thanks to GQ, one thing is certain: When Britons think of him, the first word that will come to them is "philanthropist."

In T 112/89 the board stated that, regarding the due care required by Art. 122(1) EPC 1973, the obligations of the applicant and those of his representative were clearly distinct and that the due care to be exercised by the representative might depend on the relationship which existed between him and his client. The board noted that it was clear that both the representative and the applicant had to exercise all due care in order to observe all the time limits during patent granting procedures. In the case at issue, the board was not convinced that the duty of the representative was fully discharged when he had notified his client that a time limit was to be observed and was satisfied that the client had received the notification. On the contrary, when a representative had been instructed to lodge an appeal and did not receive in due time from his client the necessary additional instructions he needed to discharge his duty, he should take all necessary measures to try to obtain from his client these instructions.
In T 1401/05 (20.9.2006) the board stated that the communication between the representative and his client (patent applicant) had worked efficiently. The representative was therefore entitled to rely on his client's awareness of the expiry of the time limit. The representative was not required to issue a further reminder to meet his obligations of due care.
In T 1289/10 the board held that if a European representative provided a contact email address for all kinds of mail, including mail that may require immediate action by the representative, it was essential to perform a mail check at least at the end of each business day. Given the known problem that legitimate mail from time to time was wrongly marked as a possible threat it was evident that this check must include the quarantine area of the email system.

"We need to be accurate if we want to deliver what we intend. That was disappointing from our point of view to see a lot of what they were doing, at the scrum, the line-out and at the breakdown: they were very accurate and very hard at what they were doing."
Racing Metro out-half Sexton and Kiwi legend Dan Carter will have to wait another day for a battle of the number 10s. Carter is definitely out of the clash between Ireland and New Zealand after picking up an injury after 26 minutes of his 100th cap against England on Saturday.
And Sexton is a serious doubt for the final game of the autumn series after he pulled a hamstring.
Schmidt expects to have Rob Kearney fit for the New Zealand match despite an injury sustained late in the game against the Aussies.
Ireland fell to seventh in the world rankings following Saturday's defeat.

11,000 miles on this sprocket so far, seems to be wearing as well as any other front sprocket I've had. The trick to making it last is to keep your clean chain, I recommend chain wax. Only real difference between this and the OEM sprocket for my SV1000 is that this one doesn't have the rubber buffer things on either side. Pretty sure those are only there to cut down on noise, but I can't even tell a difference.

We've all heard of the Canadian tuxedo: the denim-on-denim blazer/vest/button-down/pants combo that is apparently so intrinsic to our homeland's stylistic DNA that it bears its name in title. It's a ludicrous look, but it speaks to the fact that denim, at least in part, is indeed hard to live without. To play homage to our national adoration, we asked our Style Panelists how to amp up the typically casual fabric. As usual, we got several unique and equally awesome answers: from Amy Flying a Kite's Amy Nelson in a pretty pink vintage sweater worn overtop loose jeans to A Fashion Love Affair's Cara McLeay's full on gown treatment; you'll discover, if you haven't already, that the denim possibilities are endless.
Question 19: Some still think of denim as a casual-only fabric. What's your way to dress it up? Read the answers now! »

- Serial monogamy is a common marriage pattern and polygyny is practised by a few.
1.1The practice or state of having a sexual relationship with only one partner: AIDS can be contained by monogamy as well as by early sex education younger men were more likely to stray, saying monogamy was outdated
More example sentences
- Marriage is as much a promise of fiscal partnership as of sexual monogamy.
- In today's society, AIDS is a reality and as such, sexual monogamy should be the rule.
- The more likely explanation is that developmental changes occurred that involved greater solidifying of romantic relationships, making stable monogamy more possible.

More example sentences
- Indeed, that male often initiates the nest, giving a strong impression of behavioral monogamy.
- Social monogamy is the prevailing mating system in the vast majority of passeriform birds, but there is some variation among lineages.

Citation: Xu, J., Chang, T., Tseng, Y., Inglett, G.E., Wirtz, D. 2005. Multiple-particle tracking study of the microheterogeneity of nutrim-10 suspensions [abstract]. American Association of Cereal Chemists Meetings. Paper No. 247. Technical Abstract: Nutrim is a newly developed food product containing the dietary soluble fiber beta-glucan. The microstructural heterogeneities of Nutrim-10 suspensions were investigated by monitoring the thermally driven displacements of well-dispersed microspheres via video fluorescence microscopy. By comparing the distribution of the time-dependent mean-square displacement (MSD) of polystyrene microspheres embedded in three concentrations of Nutrim-10 suspensions, we found that the degree of heterogeneity of the suspensions increased dramatically within a narrow range of Nutrim-10 concentrations. The ensemble-average MSD of 5.5% Nutrim-10 suspension exhibited a power-law behavior which scaled linearly with time. This behavior was similar to that of homogeneous aqueous glycerol solution, but the MSD distribution was wider and more asymmetric than glycerol. Increasing the Nutrim-10 concentration rendered the MSD distribution much more asymmetric and skewed. These results suggest that the heterogeneities of Nutrim-10 are highly dependent on its concentrations, which might be related to beta-glucan.

Clueless at Choosing Your Colors? There's an App for That
Perfect makeup matches are but a (free) download away
Warm? Uh, hmm. Cool? Yeah, perhaps, that does ring a bell. But I wouldn't swear to it. And it's not like I haven't looked up the definitions and "how tos" dozens of times -- I look 'em up, walk myself through the options, hone in on which I am and then promptly purge the info from my brain.
READ: 11 Bright Makeup Colors That Work Wonders on Everyone
The thing is, I derive some solace from knowing that I must not be the only one because the good people at Plum Perfect saw fit to create an entire app dedicated to helping women figure out which makeup shades work best for their coloring.
Debuting yesterday, this FREE new IOS app uses patented technology to analyze an uploaded selfie and render tailor-made color recommendations across eye, lip and cheek products even going so far as to suggest specific brands' shades which you can click and buy in one simple step.
"Unlike anything else in the marketplace, Plum Perfect transforms the mobile camera into a personalized beauty advisor for shoppers on the go. We explain why each recommendation is a scientific match for that consumer," says Plum Perfect's founder and CEO, Asmau Ahmed, whose expertise in chemical engineering and color analytics and passion for shopping inspired her to build -- and launch -- the technology.
Having a built in beauty buddy via the Plum Perfect app sounded too good to be true so I lost no time in checking it out. I uploaded my photo and in no time was looking at a list of solid, appropriate recommendations -- two of which I even already owned.
Based on this initial experience I'd hasten a guess that since my over-taxed brain clearly can't do it on its own, Plum Perfect will work wonders in helping me and my 42 year-old bad self remain "hot" for years to come.

Off-Campus Dining:
its not the best but its definitely not the worst. i like Philly Style pizza! but its so expensive. i've had awful food from Temple Star, but i just go to China House now over on Cecil. There are tons of food trucks everywhere, so getting food quick and cheap isn't very hard, as long as you have cash on you.
Off-Campus Dining:
We have a ton of options apart from dining halls, like food trucks and chain restaurants. most are open late, especially the pizza places and Insomnia cookie truck. Almost all the places around Temple will take diamond dollars, restaurants in center city will not do any student discount.
Off-Campus Dining:
The food in philly is great no matter where you are.
Off-Campus Dining:
Plenty of options to pick from.
Off-Campus Dining:
I usually don't venture off campus for food since I have a meal plan, but when I do, I always find something good.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
There are a lot of options for off-campus dining. In the surrounding community alone, there are dozens of places to go to find food. The good thing about these places is that many of them accept Diamond Dollars, Temple's dining currency. Temple students and staff have more than enough different selections of food to choose from. This is why many students put on the Freshman 15. Eating off campus can cost more money than one might expect. There are few restaurants within walking distance, so without a car, you will not only be paying for your food, but also your transportation. If you have reliable transportation and some money to burn, Philly has an excellent selection of restaurants. The historic feel of the city is well worth the cost.
Some of the types of food that are offered range from cheesesteak (which Philadelphia is known for) to Japanese, so you never get bored eating the same thing every day. In addition to dinner options in North Philly, Philadelphia also offers a range of different restaurants in both Center City and Old City. Most new residents are drawn to Pat's cheesesteaks or Geno's. The two have been long-time rivals, so try both and pick your favorite. If you are feeling a little adventurous, head away from the center of the city and into one of the smaller neighborhoods, with small restaurants found on almost every corner. You will find friendly people and excellent, cheap food. If you're a late eater, there are numerous places open late that deliver. There is a little something for everyone, no matter what you are in the mood for or what the occasion is.

Daily Journal
Congressman Alan Nunnelee, R-Miss., has been released from the hospital.
The 1st District leader was admitted Thursday with a suspicious spot on his brain, a day after feeling nausea and fatigue.
In a press release, Nunnelee said doctors found a "small intracranial mass," which "appears to be an isolated problem that can be remedied through surgery."
Nunnelee added that he will remain in Washington, D.C., through the weekend for additional outpatient tests and hopes to come back to Mississippi early next week to help with tornado recovery efforts.
"I first want to say that my family and I greatly appreciate all of your kind prayers, thoughts, and well-wishes," Nunnelee said. "We are also truly grateful for the care and advice that the medical staff from the House of Representatives and George Washington University provided."
The second-term congressman serves on the House Appropriations Committee and the House Budget Committee.

Nina Ricci's Graceful Transition to Fall
If you're looking for clothes to wear to the office, stop reading. That's not Olivier Theyskens' territory.
But for sheer artisanship and creativity, there's little wonder why Louvre Museum curator Pamela Golbin has followed him around with a camera and a microphone.
Mr. Theyskens' Nina Ricci collection on Sunday night, shown in a tent by the blue-lit Eiffel tower, continued from his previous collections like a sequence of art. The highly commercial Miuccia Prada offers an entirely new idea each season. Mr. Theyskins transitions gracefully from one concept to another and he's always about silky and floaty.
So we saw those familiar blurry silk prints that he develops himself — no wonder they cost a fortune — in a series of miniskirts with floor-length trains that flowed like tails behind the models. A pair of jodhpurs reminded me of the jodhpur-full collection he showed last winter (appearing in stores now, near you!).
And there was another slouch-shouldered tailored jacket, tucked amongst the broader collection of puffy-shouldered Elizabethan, that will tell a legion of next season's designers that they should continue looking to the 1980s for inspiration.
If there's any doubt about Mr. Theyskens' influence on the rest of the fashion world — particularly New York designers — consider all the feather dresses, suits and hats in the current fall collections (you won't be wearing them to the corporate board meeting, but you'll see them in the current issue of "Madame Figaro".) One season after Mr. Theyskens introduced ostrich feathers in his clothes and his models' hair, other designers flocked after him with their own versions of feather, including Carolina Herrera and Ralph Lauren.
As for how all those translucent body hugging gowns (so lovely on a model's body, preferably unimaginable on mine) will fare in stores: we shall see. — Christina Binkley

PARKERSBURG - Wood County commissioners heard funding requests Monday from the Family Crisis Intervention Center and Parkersburg Homecoming.
Emily Larkins, executive director, and Sharon Lynch, representing the FCIC, submitted a request for $5,000 to purchase two new washers/dryers for the domestic violence victim shelter and a storage building.
Cyndie Wade, new homecoming festival committee president, and Randall Roberts, former homecoming chair, asked the commission for $10,000 to help defray expenses this year.

Emily Larkins and Sharon Lynch, representing the Family Crisis Intervention Center, which covers Wood and seven other neighboring counties, asked for $5,000 to purchase new washers/dryers and a storage building.
Larkins told commissioners the Violence Against Women Act is up for reauthorization.
"We are waiting to see what happens with that, which may affect our funding," Larkins said. The shelter relies on grants, federal/state funding, local contributions and money from fundraisers to operate.
Acts of domestic violence are on the rise in the 8-county area covered by the shelter. Statistics show in December 2011 the local shelter provided 69 nights while in December 2012, that number was up to 351 nights for clients, Larkins said, noting at least 50 percent of the arrests in the area are due to domestic violence-related issues.
"The two washers and dryers we have now are in constant use, at least 10 years old and in need of replacement. We also receive donations of items from generous local groups and churches, and we need a place to store those items," Larkins said.
Last year the commission contributed funds to the FCIC Kids First Program, but does not provide an annual funding contribution to the nonprofit organization.
"We are going into the budget in March. We hope the community responds to your needs, but we will place your request on the rolling agenda so we can bring it up for discussion again," Commissioner Blair Couch said.
Commissioner Wayne Dunn told the FCIC representatives he would donate a used washer/dryer unit to the shelter.
Homecoming officials said the Saturday night fireworks are a highlight of the fest, and organizers asked the commissioners for permission to again launch the fireworks from Fort Boreman Park. Commissioner Steve Gainer told the officials they would need to apply for the proper permits.
"We are looking at having more water activities and events, possibly a ski show this year. We want to take full advantage of the new park," Wade said. "We used to have a water show and we want to bring it back."
"It's a great location down there and we want to use it. We'd like to bring the sternwheelers back too," Roberts said.
Roberts noted homecoming, in the past, had a deficit but now has been able to come back with an $8,000 balance. He said the festival's total budget is more than $165,000.
"Have you considered setting up entry points and just asking for donations to help with expenses," Commissioner Steve Gainer asked.
"It's very hard with such a large area to do that, but we do walk around with collection buckets and we have had a central donation point in the past and gotten some funds from that," Roberts said.
"We may have to look more seriously at what we donate to. We want to maintain the quality of life in our community, but if the economy remains tight and revenue stays flat, we may have to take another look," Dunn said.
Couch told homecoming organizers to submit their request in writing.
"We are coming into budget time. Our commitment to homecoming remains strong, just put your request for a specific dollar amount in writing. We will begin work on the new budget in March, then in June, when we are working on our ending balance, we may be able to help in some way at that time," Couch said.
Homecoming also receives 2.5 percent of the county hotel/motel tax revenue.
