On 7/30/2009, citizens from Gainesville, FL, attended a Healthcare Reform Townhall focused on the public option. Workers from the North Florida Central Labor Council, as well as members of the Alachua County Democratic Executive Committee, asked a panel of experts questions. And, heard personal stories from from survivors of our current Healthcare system. Together, Organizing for America and the North Florida Central Labor Council presented their respective must haves from Congress.
On July 28th, 2009, workers throughout the United States called their Congressional delegates to ensure Labor's three must haves with Healthcare are heard. From Jacksonville to Pensacola, workers in North Florida joined the mobilization efforts and took an active role by participating through their Central Labor Councils and Local Unions.
On 7/27/2009, workers and the community joined together to hear stories about Healthcare, and to support the President's Healthcare plan. Senator Tony Hill spoke while Representative Gibson moderated the discussion. Organizing for America Deputy Field Director Chris Turner introduced guests and speakers.
On 7/17/2009, workers from the Big Bend Labor Chapter in Tallahassee, FL, demonstrated outside of Tallahassee Community College in support of the Employee Free Choice Act and Healthcare Reform.
On 6/19 and 6/20, the North Central Florida Central Labor Council held two events, in Gainesville and Ocala respectively. With over 600 flyers passed out, and 102.2°F heat, workers and their families informed the public about the importance of the Employee Free Choice Act, while displaying their distrust for the financial giant Bank of America. After it became public in January that the corporate giant was helping fund a multi-million dollar disinformation campaign against the Employee Free Choice Act, workers in Florida have been protesting the bank that took taxpayer monies in the form of bailouts, then turned around and used taxpayer monies to attack legislation that will turn around America's middle class.
On 6/11/2009, Workers in Panama City, FL, combined their efforts for an information drive regarding the Employee Free Choice Act and Health Care Reform. Tom Owens, from AFGE (shown in picture) helped explain to the general public why working families need an economy that works for everyone.

|Traditional, Classic
What are you most proud of? I'm really pleased with the whole outcome. It was a burda pattern (normally I would draft my own but didn't have time) so I did a full bust adjustment. The organza backing really does make a huge difference to how it looks and wears. I'm still not 100% sold on the handpicked zipper vs a concealed one, but i can see how a handpicked one would be so much better had I had seamlines to match.
The dress and jacket look great, and you look like you're having a ball!
Gorgeous fabric, gorgeous fit, gorgeous family, gorgeous you :)
Very well done. The outcome is beautiful!
Oh my! You look like you just stepped out of a couture salon. Kuddos to you, Lady.

The Ghost Of A Flea
on Nov. 24, 2010
(no rating)
When I saw the first chapter was set in 1975, I thought it was going to be one of those novels that illustrates an important clue that happened in the past and then jump forward to present day for the remainder of the novel. Not so. When I realized the entire novel was going to be set in 1975, I was surprised, but pleasantly so. To have a novel published in 2010, but be entirely set in 1975 is a form of bravery in my opinion. The same bravery that was evident of authors who published novels in the early 20th century, but wrote about the future. It was refreshing to read a novel without modern day electronic capabilities. To write in such a way, makes me believe the author actually thought about the details of the book: how a character would get out of a certain predicament, how a scene would play out without the use of cell phones, etc. The author was actually able to focus on and perfect the plot of the story rather than take the easy way out. It was wonderful. The two main characters, Roger and Peggy, were a nice contradiction to each other. Roger was a little wimpy and naive, whereas Peggy was cunning and strong-willed. It took Roger a little longer than I liked to stop being so naive. I was grateful when he finally started acting with some authority and backbone. There was a part of Peggy that reminded me of myself ... flitting from relationship to relationship until finally meeting that one nice guy that changes the way I see men. Despite Peggy's independence, there was an underlying vulnerability to her that I recognized and understood. I did wonder about her honesty for most of the book and was hoping that she wouldn't betray Roger in the end. Overall, this novel was rather enjoyable. It was a classically written mystery without the overshadowing of modern conveniences. It kept you turning the page wanting to know more. It is definitely one that I will remember and enjoy reading again.
Lovers and Beloveds: An Intimate History of the Greater Kingdom Book One
on Dec. 16, 2010
This book surprised me. I didn't expect to be drawn into an erotic fantastical story like this one, but I was. When it ended, I wanted to know more ... What happened during Temmin's two years and two days as a Supplicant? What was the result of Teacher finally knowing that 'it was time?' What happened to Mattie and the guy that helped her when she twisted her ankle? There's so many questions that I have that I want to read the second book in the series (hint hint MeiLin!!!). =) Reading Lovers and Beloveds brought to mind all of the mythology stories I've read over the years. This story has the same type of vibe to it. There were gods the mortals worshipped, presented gifts and sacrifices to and the gods sometimes possessed the bodies of mortals. There were definitely some erotic situations in this story. If you like that sort of thing, which I do on occasion, then this book is for you ... Just make sure you have your sweetie around for when you're finished reading for the night! =)
The Watcher
on Jan. 12, 2011
This is the second ebook I've read written by John Brinling and, I must say, I am not disappointed. This is a murder-mystery/whodunit/paranormal experiences all wrapped up in one. Once I began this book, I was quickly intrigued and did not want to stop. I will say that the reader pretty much knew who was committing the murders early on into the story, but that did not take away from the story! All it did, for me, was to make one wonder how everything was going to work out so the evil person/people would be found out. Would good triumph over evil? Would Janet have a happy ending? These questions and more kept me aptly reading until the end. If you enjoy a murder mystery with a slightly different twist to it, then trust me when I say that you will enjoy reading The Watcher.
The Digital Sea
on April 11, 2011
Cover/Title The cover has a simplistic design. It's not really eye-catching or contemplative. The title, though, automatically makes you think of electronic technology and the vastness of it. Plot When you first begin to read the book, each chapter takes the time to introduce you to each of the main characters that you need to know about. Eventually, you start to see them intermingle until, by the end, they are full immersed in each other's stories and everything ends up making sense. The action in this story was supported by the futuristic technological advancement of our society. It was easy to believe that, one day, our country (no matter where you are) would be like those depicted in the book. The ending didn't answer all of the questions I had so I'm expecting a sequel to pop up sometime soon to continue this engaging story. Characters Zel Aurora - A woman willing to do anything to find and give her daughter peace. Sasha - Zel's companion throughout much of the book, until he meets an untimely demise. Jartelle - A man who travels all over the world and is not who he appears to be. Overall From the beginning to the end, The Digital Sea dragged you into its depths and drowned you with a futuristic reality that threatened to overload your senses. With its action-packed storyline, it will keep the reader turning page after page until the end. I would recommend this story to anyone who appreciates future-based story lines mixed with surrealism.
My Superhero Sister
on May 22, 2011
Cover I hate to say it, but I'm not a big fan of the cover. I understand it ... I'm just not a fan. It reminds me of the old comic books with how the two girls are drawn. Plot The story definitely has action and suspense while still dealing with the normal teenage feelings of inadequacy, jealousy over an older sibling and low self-esteem. It definitely kept my interest. However, I must say the ending lacked a little oomph for me. I understand why the author went in the direction she did, but I did not find it as exciting action-wise as the pages before it. Main Characters Ellen - Holly's older sister and superheroine, Suprema - Ellen has taken after her father's side of the family and has become a superhero. She's smart, attractive, fun and people are drawn to her ... which can be a source of contention where Holly is concerned. Holly - Ellen's younger sister and normal human - Holly has her father's physique, but her mother's human nature. Holly is jealous of Ellen and how perfect she is. Only when Holly is thrown into an unexpected situation does she somewhat understand how Ellen's life must be. Tad - New kid in town - He has just arrived in Century City and is Holly's crush. Even though Tad is in Ellen's grade, Holly tries her best to get Tad to notice her and like her. He's the All-American good looking hunk that all the girls go ga-ga over. Overall There were a couple writing errors and some questions left unanswered (for me), but overall I was drawn into this book and enjoyed it. I would recommend this more to the teen crowd rather than the adults.
The Bad, The Good and Two Fly Fishing Women, and a Life-Changing Day on a River
on June 03, 2011
(no rating)
Cover I like the photograph, but from the story you get the sense that Amanda is at least a teenager ... not an adult woman like what is depicted on the cover. Plot/Main Characters One grandmother, terminally ill with cancer, decides to go fly-fishing one last time before she meets her end. One school girl, sensing something's wrong, leaves school early one day to go home and search for her grandmother. Along the way, she encounters a man who helps her see another side of people and life while another man is intent on hurting her. In the midst of this is Shana ... Amanda's ever-present companion and protector. Will they find Amanda's grandmother? If so, what exactly will they find when they reach her? Overall Despite its short length, the book exemplifies a few familiar addages: Things are not always as they appear, never judge a book by its cover and do not pre-judge a person until you've walked a mile in their shoes.
Two-Fisted Tweets
on June 04, 2011
Cover I enjoy the comic book look of the cover. Plot Is there really a plot? Of course, you could say there are 30 plots ... each one the length of a tweet (Twitter update ... for those not familiar with Twitter-speak). They're really there to spark your imagination. You can come up with your own back story and future ending for each of these tweets. Overall A unique 'book' that can ignite a reader's imagination, if they are so inclined to use it. Some were humorous and some .... not so much.
The Second Fly Caster: Fatherhood, Recovery and an Unforgettable Tournament
on July 04, 2011
Cover The man fly-casting on the cover could be either a depiction of a grown-up Erik or the depiction of Erik's father during Erik's younger years. Plot This is a short story layered in meaning. We begin thinking we know everything there is to know, but then we learn of Erik's father's past and his reason for fly-casting. This helps us to get a better understanding of the family dynamics between Erik and his parents. Then, after Erik grows up, goes off to war and returns again, the art of fly-casting becomes Erik's respite from the demons he brought back with him from the war. As he's mastering this art, the realizations of his father's past come upon Erik bringing with it understanding, forgiveness and peace. Main Characters Erik's Father - A veteran who uses alcohol to cope. He can become mean while under an alcoholic rage (don't most people). When he finds fly-casting, though, he uses that as his therapy to deal with his PTSD and becomes great at it. Erik - Idolizes his father and his fly-casting abilities. Overall This was a short story that has a big impact.
Dirty Little Angels
on July 26, 2011
Cover The cover photo is pretty self-explanatory ... especially when looked at after reading the book's summary. I'm glad the photo was kept in black and white instead of color. It has a more neglected feel to it. Plot/Main Characters The story is told from Hailey's point of view. Right away we are introduced to her family: Cyrus, Hailey's older brother who hangs out with the wrong people and will eventually get into trouble because of it; Jules, Hailey and Cyrus' father, who lost his job and is now struggling to provide for his family ... although he doesn't seem to be trying too hard to find actual work; and ... Lena, Hailey and Cyrus' mother, who is so lost in her own grief she barely realizes what is going on around her. Realistically written, this story felt ... gritty. You follow a girl's life as she struggles to find love, acceptance and her place in this world. Unfortunately, she begins life at a disadvantage by being from the "wrong side of the tracks." I believe this pre-disposed Hailey to enter into various life situations she wouldn't have encountered otherwise. Overall This can be classified as an emotionally disturbing 'coming-of-age' tale, which feels all too familiar. We've all known or seen a person in these circumstances. If you haven't, well, maybe you should. It would help you get a more realistic perspective on a life different from your own.
Weaver Of Darkness
on July 29, 2011
Cover Definitely disturbing, but I like it. The spruceness of the title's lettering with the little flourishes set atop the slight creepiness of the cover art presents a nice contrast. Plot For me, the book started off reminding me of a cross between I Know What You Did Last Summer, Chucky and Scream. It did get better as I kept reading. Minus the prologue, this book starts off common enough: boyfriend and girlfriend walking home from school with friends talking about what they're going to do that night. Then the freakiness hits the proverbial fan ... Without giving away spoilers, I will say this novel contains twins who represent good and evil, a loyal servant/protector to the good twin, ghosts, shapeshifters, witches, demons, gods, delusions, love, human sacrifice ... this novel has it all. Main Characters Melissa - An only child stuck in a home with parents who are too busy for her. Jerry - Melissa's boyfriend and son of the town's sheriff. He does everything he can to protect her. Hunter - He has vowed to protect Melissa at all costs no matter the circumstance. He's wise, mysterious, strong, loyal and faithful. Mark - New kid in school who befriends Melissa and seems to take a personal interest in her. Will he come between Melissa and Jerry? Overall This novel has a lot of familiar aspects (especially to an avid reader), but they're written in a style that is different and engaging. I would recommend this to any fantasy and mystery lovers.
The Dream
on Oct. 11, 2011
Cover The cover's okay. It doesn't relate to the story in any way, though. Plot Girl has a bad dream where terrible things are happening to her ... and then she wakes up. Are her waking hours any better than her dream? Overall Poorly written, redundant and boring. The only good thing I could find was that it was an extremely quick read.
Delilah Dusticle
on June 19, 2013
Delilah reminds me of Rosie from the futuristic cartoon, The Jetsons. She can go up walls and eradicate dust from every person, crevice, it doesn't matter what or where it is. There's a catch to Delilah's skills, though ... they only seem to work when she's happy and content. Unrequited love can be very hurtful and that's how Delilah becomes extremely sad and depressed. Once her heart is broken, Delilah starts trailing dust everywhere. Dust even puffs out of her mouth when she speaks, which I find slightly disgusting and it made me want to clean just reading about it. For a little girl reading this story, though, it's very emotional and has a magical feel to it. Eventually, Delilah becomes best friends with the last person she ever expected. As their friendship grows, Delilah becomes happy again and is able to eradicate dust once more. This first book in the series does end happily for Delilah and I was glad to see it. This would make the perfect book for little girls, probably around 7 or 8 years old. To be a short story, it has a lot happening. Don't mistake what I write, though ... even though there's a lot happening the story does not feel rushed or lacking in any way. It really is the perfect little story to read to your daughter, niece, granddaughter, etc. *An ecopy of the book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.
Dark Lullaby
on Oct. 07, 2013
I'm actually on the fence about this story; I don't hate it, but I don't love it either. It was a little strange for me. I'm getting ahead of myself ... Gabriel and his ex-girlfriend, Liz, are at a tavern having a philosophical discussion over some drinks. Kamilah "overhears" them and inserts herself into the conversation. Well, right away, Liz begins to get jealous and treats the woman coldly. Gabriel, man that he is, falls into lust at first sight. It also helps that Kamilah is mostly on Gabriel's side conversation-wise, which is just a boost to his ego. One thing leads to another with the end result being Gabriel and Kamilah having sex. One-night stands are so commonplace nowadays that this isn't even shocking. After their little soiree in the bedroom, Gabriel and Kamilah begin spending the majority of their time together over the next few days. This does not help Liz's jealousy ... even though her and Gabe are now just friends. Eventually, Kamilah invites Gabriel to travel to Turkey with her and spend a week there before he goes off to Brussels to be with his twin sister, Elena, who is about to give birth. During their stay in Turkey, Gabriel finally begins to notice that Kamilah is acting strangely. He hears stories of otherworldly creatures that are known to exist there, but disregards them with his scientific mind. Unfortunately, it turns out that Kamilah is one of these fabled creatures and he is unknowingly (literally) dying to strengthen her powers. In the process, he puts his twin sister's child in danger as well. The book is a quick read and I was able to go through it in a day. The story itself was a little creepy, and I liked that, there just seemed to be something "off" about it that I can't quite figure out. I never really got lost in the story and that did disappoint me. Like I said, though, I'm on the fence with this one. If you want something new to read and you've got a few hours to kill, why not check this one out and see if you agree with me. *A Smashwords coupon code was provided by the author for the purposes of this tour, hosted by Pump Up Your Book, and in exchange for an honest review.
Love Unexpected
on Jan. 21, 2014
This is the "nicely wicked but not explicit version," to quote the author. The "somewhat kinkier assortment" is published under the title Love Unexpected: Nighttime Tales. There are six novellas in each book of which I'll give my brief opinion about: One Bride for Seven Brothers Area 69 Sun Zu's Art of Whore To Protect and Service World War Me: Love in the Time of the Zompocalypse Carole's Christmas One Bride for Seven Brothers was a little longer than what I thought it should be. Don't get me wrong, I liked it. I just wished it was a tad bit shorter. The girl was a tad bit naive, but that's how most young girls were back then I suppose. I just know I would've found something fishy and suspicious before she did. Area 69 was a bit odd, but I suppose it would be when dealing with a secret government mission. I think the gardener was used to throw the reader off. I'm curious how the story could've ended had the gardener been omitted. The heat of the book definitely picked up with this novella. No, it's not smutty or explicit, but it does start one's juices flowing ... or maybe I'm just into weird stuff. *wink wink* If Area 69 picked up the heat of the book, then Sun Zu's Art of Whore doubled or tripled that. Still not explicit, but one's imagination can run wild with this novella. I may be using some of this story in my own life. The hubs won't know what hit him. Definitely a fun and playful read. I was a little let down with To Protect and Service. Reading this type of book, when you see a title like "To Protect and Service," your mind just automatically goes to certain sexual acts. This story was more sweet than savory. I would've liked it to have had more oomph. Zombies are everywhere and this book has not been left out. World War Me: Love in the Time of the Zompocalypse definitely has a twist. The zombies are used as more of a back story. It was the zombie cure that cause the real hoopla. Someone please create and send me a bottle of this! I could have some real fun with this stuff!!! The final novella, Carole's Christmas: The Dental Version, annoyed me. In order to keep this story clean for this book, the authors changed all of the smutty words and phrases to dental versions. I would rather have read the smutty version. Overall, I did enjoy this book, but I think I would've enjoyed the Nighttime Tales version more. What can I say? I'm a naughty girl. *An ecopy of this book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.

Eggs from home.
Over a year ago
I'm curious. I don't have a farm, but I have friends who do, and they get eggs and milk and other dairy products from their animals. I've been to their house, and they treat the animals very well. They're free to go as they please. So I'm curious to what people think about that. I'm not a vegan, because I'm not strong or rich enough for that, but I'm a vegetarian. And I'm curious about what vegans and vegetarians think about this. I personally think it's perfectly fine. But if you were a vegan, would you eat/drink dairy products if you know for a FACT that the animals aren't being abused, and may be even happy? Just curious. ^_^

Veganism is extremely cheap. My family has been within the lowest earning bracket of the average household income for our entire lives and we have two vegans right here. We have often gotten food from food banks and we are still very vegan.
It is not expensive. That is merely a myth created by meat eaters/vegetarians to justify why they aren't vegan yet.
If they are taking the milk, what does the calf get to drink? If they are taking the eggs, do you really want to put that much cholesterol into your body? Eggs are better fed back to the chickens.
Do you think it is right to use animals for our own gains? And do you really know for a "fact" that the animals will not be killed or sold to slaughter as soon as they become "useless"?You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Veganism is cheap:
I would never steal milk from a baby calf and risk over milking mama at the same time. She's not a machine!
As for the eggs… GROSS! Chicken periods? No thanks! 🙂You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

It goes against the whole definition of being a vegan.
It's unnatural to have another species milk and to have anyone's milk definitely after the age of four. Eggs and milk also really aren't that healthy.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

The other two below have put it aptly. Veganism is not expensive unless you buy speciality items like mock meats. Eggs are also better off given back to chickens, and cow's milk is still a calfs', not ours. Also, if it's a farm, the likely hood is that the animals will be sent to slaughter once they stop producing milk/eggs. And male chicks will still die in egg production because of where the farmer gets his chickens from.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Eggs are eaten by the chickens after they're laid if they aren't fertalised because they lay eggs so often and lose the nutrients so they just eat them again to get them back. I don't think its fair to rob them of this. Again with diary, it isn't meant for us. I'd be surprised if they have a cow that has given birth so they just milk it? Or do they keep it for milking and then its artificially inseminated? But anyway, regardless of how the animals are treated they aren't ours and we can't use them in this way. It would be up to each person but I don't think its fair or natural for humans to drink milk from other species or take another animals periods :/You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Actor is 'overwhelmed' by flagship dementia scheme
Published by Grand Union for Grand Union Housing Group in Housing and also in Health
Lewis star Kevin Whately with Aragon's MD Aileen Evans at the opening of Flowers House
TV star opens unique dementia housing scheme
Alzheimer's Society Ambassador and actor Kevin Whately, has opened a pioneering new housing scheme built for Aragon Housing Association which will be provide a unique home to people in the Milton Keynes area living with dementia.
In his role as Ambassador for the Alzheimer's Society, the star of Lewis whose mother, Mary, died with dementia in 2009 joined those behind Flowers House, which is a unique partnership between Milton Keynes Council and Aragon, part of Grand Union Housing Group.
Kevin Whately said: "Before my mother's diagnosis with Alzheimer's, I had heard of the disease, but hadn't known anyone who had suffered from it. I know how devastating Alzheimer's, and any form of dementia is for the person diagnosed and their families. I think Flowers House is a great addition to the services and support already available to people living with dementia in Milton Keynes and am happy to lend my support to its opening."
Flowers House, named after Tommy Flowers, whose work at the world famous Bletchley Park led to the building of the famous code-breaking Colossus machine, is a £3.2m scheme, which will give 34 people their own apartment and offer the latest in secure round the clock care.
AileenEvans,Aragon's Manager Director said: "This has been a truly unique partnership, one we were delighted to facilitate. We are proud this is going to show how important it is to invest in the provision of housing and support for the ever growing number of people who are living with dementia."
Over 100 people, including residents and their families, were at the opening to celebrate the completion of this scheme. Among the guests were Tommy Flowers' surviving son and daughter-in-law.
The need for the scheme was identified by Milton Keynes Council's Adult Social Care team, due to the increasing number of older residents living with dementia. It is intended to provide housing for residents, who have moderate needs, to allow them to live their lives as independently as possible, in a safe supported environment.
The scheme has been made possible with £2.4m of grant funding from the Homes and Communities Agency and has been built by Bellcross for Aragon.
Cllr Debbie Brock, the Cabinet Member responsible for Adult, Older Years and Health Services, Cllr Debbie Brock, the Cabinet Member responsible for Adult Social Care, Health and Wellbeing, said: "Milton Keynes Council identified a need for such a setting which offers an alternative choice to the more traditional care settings. This partnership sees a pioneering offer for residents of Milton Keynes that we could well see being adopted around the country."
The opening also coincides with the National Housing Federation's Support Matters Month which highlights the growing need for support among older and vulnerable people in the community.

I found an older thread (now closed) with the same question, so am resurrecting:
I am transitioning an org's homemade site in iWeb (blarg) to a new site I've built in WordPress. iWeb created a tangled mess of dozens of awkward nested URLs throughout the existing site. I am curious if there's been any further investigation to adding a wildcard character so a user could redirect all of the previous pages in a given /dir to the new page (or in some cases to the homepage) in one fell swoop.
After wrestling with another redirect plugin for the better part of a day, I was thrilled to find a recommendation to switch to Simple 301 Redirects -- straightforward and brilliant. A wildcard character option is the only item on my wishlist.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Backstage at the Medical Revolution
For the Record continued...
"The online medical record is an electronic health record. It has a place for doctors and nurses to enter the medication list and the problem list, keep track of blood pressures and store their notes and so on," explains Daniel Z. Sands, MD, MPH, assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, and clinical systems integration architect at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston.
He says the online medical record grew out of a need to impose order on the chaos of modern medical life.
"Medicine is increasingly complex, and we don't have a lot of time to spend with you in the exam room. We're dealing with an incredible amount of information and keeping track of this information isn't really manageable using paper. Having a computer system there is a very important safety net for us, and it really makes it possible to provide quality health care," Sands tells WebMD.
"We know from doctors who've left the organization, one of the things they miss the most is that computerized patient record system."
Who Wants the Tab?
So with all this wonderful technology promising to make things more efficient, reduce workload, and improve delivery of services to patients, why aren't more hospitals using it?
"We live in two worlds: the world of the possible and the world of reality," says Jerome H. Grossman, MD, senior fellow and director of the Harvard/Kennedy Health Care Delivery Policy Program, at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass.
"All of this technology is possible and exists, and we know it's possible because it exists in at least one place. But scaling it up has proven to be an absolute, insurmountable barrier."
Despite more than 30 years of rapid development in computer technology, less than 5% of patient medical records are currently automated. The problem is that the people who hold the purse strings at hospitals tend to be interested in one thing, Grossman says, and that's ROI, or "return on investment." Information systems call for a big cash investment upfront and on uncertain benefits down the line.

MIDDLEBURY — Starting in the fall of 2015, Middlebury College will offer full-tuition scholarships annually to 10 urban students pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) through an expanded partnership with The Posse Foundation. Middlebury was one of 10 institutions recognized at a White House ceremony today for participating in the initiative, which will fund 500 Posse scholars over the next five years.
MIDDLEBURY — A refrigerant leak from a cooling system at Hannaford's Supermarket in Middlebury released a gas that caused at least four employees to become ill and also prompted the store to close for most of Thursday morning, January 23, according to emergency responders that included members of a state Vermont Hazardous Materials Response Team.
LINCOLN — The Lincoln School Board on Jan. 15 filled a vacancy created by the resignation of board chair Henry Wilmer.
Three board members interviewed two candidates at the meeting, and unanimously selected Ari Kirshenbaum to be the new member.
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury College has signed a 10-year lease to occupy the office building located at 700 Exchange St. in Middlebury, between the Post Office Annex and Vermont Sun. The nearly 22,000-square-foot building will provide the college with much needed space for staff and allow for better use of space on campus, college officials said.
STARKSBORO — Jeff Keeney's patience for Vermont Health Connect, the state's incarnation of the Affordable Care Act, has run out.
"I don't believe anything from Vermont Health Connect," Keeney said late last week. "They've been wrong every step of the way."
BRISTOL — The Bristol Fire Department on Saturday elected new officers at its annual meeting, and installed Brett LaRose as the new chief.
LaRose has been with the department since 1995. He replaces outgoing chief John "Peeker" Heffernan, who served as chief for six years. Heffernan on Tuesday expressed confidence in the department's choice of LaRose.
"I think he'll do a great job — he's been doing hard work, and he deserves credit," Heffernan said.
FERRISBURGH — Firefighters from 17 departments in the county dined together this past Wednesday evening during the Addison County Firefighters Association annual meeting at the Eagles Club and recognized fellow members for their service.
Looking out at the crowd of men and women clad in dress white or blue shirts tucked into crisp black pants, keynote speaker Michael Desrochers was impressed. The director of state Division of Fire Safety, where he has worked for 25 years, Desrochers said he was honored.
MIDDLEBURY — This Martin Luther King Day, over 100 Middlebury College students will raise their voices in tribute to the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in "MLK Oratorio: A Celebration in Song, Speech, and Dance."

Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire' Lights the Box Office on, Well, You Know
Everyone knew that 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire' was going to do well this weekend, but the lingering question was always whether or not it was going to do "really, really well" or "stupidly, gobsmackingly well." We should know by now that you always bet on Katniss Everdeen defying the odds, because it was the latter and everyone made it look easy.
'Star Wars: Episode 7′: J.J. Abrams Teases the Return of an Iconic Character
There have only been a handful of characters who have appeared in every 'Star Wars' movie so far. So, it's not too surprising to see that one of the saga's most important (and popular) seems to be officially back for 'Star Wars: Episode 7.' Straight from the Twitter account for J.J. Abrams and his Bad Robot production company, here's a look at at the 'Star Wars: Episode 7' workshop.
New 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire' Clip: Jennifer Lawrence Must Be a Distraction
Post by The Hunger Games.
'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire' picks up almost exactly where the first film ended, with Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) embarking on a victory tour to celebrate their surviving the Hunger Games and to spread government propaganda and fear. This section of the book (and, we imagine, the movie) is fairly action-free, but still pretty harrowing. A new clip from the film shows that a couple of good actors in a room can be just as exciting as an action scene.
R.I.P. Blockbuster: Remaining US Stores to Be Closed
After years of struggling against the odds and barely surviving in a rapidly changing world, Blockbuster announced that it's officially set to close the remainder of its US stores. For some, this is a day or mourning. For others, a day of celebration. For all of us, it's just a reminder that the way we consume media has changed so drastically and so quickly that the thought of Blockbuster going out of business would have been unthinkable a decade ago.
'RoboCop,' 'American Hustle' and More Get New Release Dates [UPDATE]
It's always surprising when high-profile movies change their opening days with only months or weeks to spare. So break out your calendars and raise your eyebrows, movie fans, because a few major Sony releases have shifted. Two of them are fairly minor, but the third definitely sends up a red flag or two.
'Gravity' Has a Fascinating Short Film Companion Called 'Aningaaq'
Considering the massive box office success of 'Gravity' over the past two weeks, chances are strong that you've already seen director Alfonso Cuaron's stunning science fiction thriller. If so, the news of a companion short film that sheds light on one of the movie's most memorable scenes should have your attention.
Naturally, spoilers lurk below.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Gravity' Holds On, 'Captain Phillips' Launches and 'Machete' Doesn't Kill
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2′ Forecasts Big Opening Weekend
There's nothing like a family-friendly animated movie to help shake off the September doldrums and 'Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2' performed as expected. Although Sony's big release effortlessly took the number one spot, this weekend had a few other bright spots, namely a handful of independent films doing quite well in more limited release.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Prisoners' Holds the Box Office Captive
September may traditionally be a wasteland of half-baked films unfit to open in a proper month, but the lack of competition can actually be a good thing. Could 'Prisoners,' a film made specifically for an adult audience, have opened as well as it did if it was released in a busier month? Probably not.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Insidious Chapter 2′ Has a Terrifyingly Huge Opening
James Wan has done it again. For the second time this year, a horror film that he's directed has opened to over $40 million, securing his position as the reigning king of mainstream horror cinema. He may be taking a break from the genre to direct 'Fast and Furious 7,' but after the jaw-dropping success of 'The Conjuring' and now 'Insidious Chapter 2,' you just know he'll be back. No one is bringing the audiences in quite like Wan.
Oh, and there were some other movies that made some money, too.
'Need For Speed' First Look: Aaron Paul Trades in Blue Meth For Fast Cars
Could the adaptation of the long-running racing series 'Need For Speed' be the first great movie based on a video game? We're not going to make any wild and crazy guesses, but for the sake of star Aaron Paul, we certainly hope so. The 'Breaking Bad' star is headlining the film alongside Dominic Cooper and now we have our first look at the two of them in character.
'Independence Day 2′: Will Smith to Return After All?
The last time director Roland Emmerich talked about 'Independence Day 2,' original franchise star Will Smith was not going to be involved. At all. He was "too expensive," a "marquee name" who would be "too much." But a few months (and some time to think about the bomb that was 'After Earth') can make all the difference in the world -- it looks like Smith may end up joining the highly anticipated sequel after all.

Sundance interview: Watch Rutger Hauer and Jason Eisener unload about 'Hobo With A Shotgun'
I do my best to avoid interviews at film festivals. It's not because I have a problem sitting down to talk people about their work, but because of the finite nature of time. There's only so much you can do at a festival, and when I'm averaging four hours of sleep a night as it is, something's got to give.
But there are interviews I make time for. Some, like the "Bellflower" conversations, are because I see something at the fest and flip out for it. My upcoming conversation with Lucky McKee and Pollyanna MacIntosh about their film "The Woman" is the same way. But others, you know you want to do before you ever even get on the plane, and one such priority for me this year was spending some time with Jason Eisener, who directed "Hobo With A Shotgun," and Rutger Hauer, who is the Hobo With A Shotgun.
And it was sooooooo worth it.
I've met Jason a few times before, and after the Sundance premiere of his short film "Treevenge" a few years ago, we had a great chat standing outside the Egyptian theater on Main Street. But for this one, we did an extensive sit-down. So intensive that we've broken the full dialogue down into three six-minute videos.
Hauer has had an amazing circuitous career, moving from indie foreign films to giant Hollywood blockbusters to wild exploitation movies and back to indie foreign films. He doesn't play the game by anyone's else's rules, and he doesn't seem terribly concerned with what people think of his choices. This is a great, free-wheeling conversation, and by the end of it, I was more impressed than ever by Eisener, because he somehow harnessed all of this wild energy that Hauer seems to generate just sitting still, and he managed to focus it. I've seen more experienced directors who couldn't keep up with Hauer, and Eisener not only kept up with him, but the feeling I get is that he genuinely won the actor's respect.
Hauer was also at Sundance to support his new film "The Mill and The Cross," and that comes up in our conversation, as does the South African film he recently shot with Carice Van Houton. Our main focus, though, is "Hobo" and the new indie spirit, and one thing's for sure. Rutger Hauer is a man who loves the work and who doesn't care about all the other nonsense, and this unfiltered conversation makes me respect him even more.
There was one exchange we had off-camera at the end of the interview that I want to include, just because he knocked me out of my own way of thinking. I was chatting with him about the documentary "Corman's World," and I mentioned how warm and affectionate the Nicholson interview is. "I think he looks back on those days with real fondness," I said, "but if I was a guy with a great script and only a million bucks to make it, there's no way Nicholson would do it for the love at this point."
"Have you asked him?" Hauer replied.
"No," I said. "I'm just speaking hypothetically."
"Well if you haven't asked him, you don't know," he said. "These guys thought they'd never get me, and yet here we are. You have to ask the pretty girl if she wants to dance, and you'd be surprised how many people just won't because they're afraid of getting turned down."
He makes an excellent point, and that's just a sample of what you can expect from the conversation we did get on video.
As always, thanks to everyone who helped put this together and coordinate some crazy mid-festival schedules.
"Hobo With A Shotgun" will be in theaters April 1, through Magnet Releasing.

Friday, February 4, 2011;
The White House seems to be planning a pretty fun Super Bowl party. Among the guests expected Sunday are Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony.
J-Lo more or less broke the news herself, gushing about the invitation Wednesday night on "Extra" (after her publicist put out word via GossipCop.com).
"I can't believe it!" the actress-singer (and now "American Idol" judge) exclaimed on the show-biz news show. "I don't know, maybe that's why I don't want to talk about it. I don't even feel like it's real!"
She added: "No, we're not crashing."
No official word on why the celebrity couple (who own a minority share of the Miami Dolphins) scored an invitation from the Obamas - except that it seems every D.C. host these days calls on Hollywood to enliven a guest list. The executive mansion typically invites a few dozen friends for Super Bowl-viewing parties; this weekend the list will include a typical assortment of Cabinet members (Eric Holder, Ron Kirk, Janet Napolitano, Ray LaHood) and lawmakers with a home-team interest in the game - Pennsylvania Senators Pat Toomey (R) and Bob Casey (D), new Wisconsin Congressman Reid Ribble (R), and the mayors of Milwaukee and Madison.

Please do not give your money to this company. I am speaking from experience. I paid the 40 dollar membership and submitted the application. I waited for 14 days and received no communication from freecarjobs or any companies. I emailed them at 14 days for a status update. They told me to wait 30 days to contact them and if I had not heard anything in 30 days they would arrange my application to fit the needs of their current customers.
At 30 days I emailed them again asking to contact me regarding arranging my application. They responded back saying they have resubmitted my application and to contact them in 30 days if I have not heard from any companies. I emailed them back to ask them to contact me because I wanted to arrange my application to fit the needs of the companies and asked for a phone number so I could talk to a live person about this.
I received an email back saying that their phones will be down for the next 30 days due to water damage and if I have not heard from any companies by December 5th to request a refund. I have not contacted them again and am waiting for 12/5 to contact them about the refund but I am willing to bet I will not receive one or they will tell me to contact them again in 30 days to ask again.
I am willing to give my hard earned 40.00 dollars away to prevent any other person from being scammed by these people. This is not a legit job. Please don't give them your money.

Skip to comments.9th Circuit: University Can Force Christian Groups Open to Non-Christians.
Posted on 08/06/2011 6:26:09 AM PDT by ZGuy
A federal appeals court ruling this week could significantly diminish public university religious groups' ability to restrict membership and leadership to students who agree with their teachings.
The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Tuesday that San Diego State University's nondiscrimination policy for officially recognized campus groups is constitutional. The policy is based on a nondiscrimination policy used at all the schools in the California State University system.
Two Christian groups sued SDSU in 2005, alleging the policy violated their free-speech and religious-freedom rights. For the groups to be recognized as official campus groups, they were required to allow all students to be members, even if their beliefs were contradictory to the group's beliefs.
The three-judge panel disagreed, stating the policy is a "rule of general application" that is not unconstitutional in its intent. "[We] do not doubt that, regardless of [SDSU]'s purpose in enacting its nondiscrimination policy, the policy will have the effect of burdening some groups more than others," circuit judge Harry Pregerson wrote in the panel's decision. "But the fact that a 'regulation has a differential impact on groups wishing to enforce exclusionary membership policies' does not render it unconstitutional. Any burden on religion is incidental to the general application of the policy."
The Ninth Circuit is the first court of appeals to make a decision in a case like this since the Supreme Court handed down a ruling last year that the Hastings College of Law in California could require student groups to open membership and leadership to all students, even critics.
The school says campus groups cannot restrict membership or leadership positions "on the basis of race, sex, color, age, religion, national origin, marital status, sexual orientation, physical or mental handicap, ancestry, or medical condition, except as explicitly exempted under federal law."

The right to free association is dead.
So, then can Jews and Christians join Muslim organizations too?
That ruling makes perfect sense (for the 9th circuit).
Time to put training wheels on that court until they learn the U.S. Constitution, or at least the Cliff Notes version of it.
When some of the liberal student groups get punked by conservatives clamoring to join (and it won't be long) they'll be squealing to the deans to rescind that policy.
Does this apply to Muslim groups as well?
I think the key is, that it's on Uncle Sam's dime. Pay the piper, call the tune. Yeah, they could get slapped by the USSC as many a time before. But conservative students can stop this at a local level PDQ by punking liberal groups that now have to be open to them.
They can, but conservatives don't do things like that.
Exactly what they should now make a point to do.
While it sucks that Satan is having his way, the Lord said it would be so and we waste time and energy fighting this system - Christians can do more good by finding a way to unfetter themselves and not paying so much attention to worldly roadblocks. Satan will rule the worldly until Jesus returns to straighten him out - the Lord has said as much, yet we continually beat our heads against the wall trying to resist the evil that Jesus told us not to resist.
As citizens, we can campaign/lobby/vote - as Christians, we need to find the separation of worldly things and the Good News we are supposed to be spreading.
Well, then,...turn-about is fair play.
Straights should join the gay clubs en masse.
Will they support heterosexuals joining homosexual groups??
Wait until a group of KKKers try to join a black student group. You'll hear a completely different decision then.
I've been a Christian for more than 50 years ... and I've been a part of and/or attended numerous "Christian Groups" ... and I've yet to see one which was not open to non-Christians.
In fact, every Christian Group that I'm familiar with specifically reaches out and hopes to touch non-Christians.
Therefore, it seems to me that this 9th Circus ruling is about as silly and meaningless as anything else the government has coming out of California these days.
No First Amendment in the 9th Circuit?
How can you have "Freedom of Religion" if the government can dictate the makeup and rules of said religion? Isn't this what we left England to get away from, domination of church/government?
Bullsh.. Christians are taxpaying citizens who are having their rights circumscribed by the government to which they pay taxes. Rest assured, this decision will be overturned in the Supreme Court.
I don't know everyone seems to be upset about this. Now I can be the Catholic Church's first Protestant cardinal.
Open to non-Christians and open to Trojans intent on destroying from within is quite different. No Christian group, or any other group for that matter, wiccans, Catholics, Hindus, or athiests, would allow someone who fundamentally disagreed with the organizations bedrock principals to have a meaningful say in the direction of the organization. What is happening on campuses is liberals are attempting to infiltrate or blatantly break into Christian organizations for the sole purpose of running them off campus.
Cool, know I can join the black and Islamic Unions on campus.
I can hear the screams of intolerance when a bunch of straights take over the LGBT(whatever)Club and bring in speakers on how to get out of the Gay lifestyle.
I have not read the decision and so I cannot take a side at this point, but in terms of facts you must keep in mind that it is the Christian group that brought the suit to be permitted to close its doors.
I don't know, it seems like it could be a good thing for a Christian to have a non-Christian wanting to hang out with him. it would be a good time and place to influence them toward Christ.
And if those clubs are smart, they won't say a word. I am a conservative white male, but if you looked at my resume from Law school organizations that I belonged to, you would conclude that I was a liberal black female. I had a lot of fun and we all got along pretty well. Having said that, I did go to a pretty conservative law school, e.g. the president of the Environmental law forum loved fox hunting with all the bells and whistles (horses, hounds, horns, etc...). And yes, she did look pretty good in her "whites and reds."
And this is where the Left really gets creative; with it's contrived definition of "public." It's becoming increasingly obvious that the Left considers anything with even a tangential relationship with the government to be "public." So, walking on a sidewalk to a private club meeting can be arguably deems as "publicly funded" to the moonbats.
You do get the entire point of "force" versus "allowance," right?
Their "benefits" are likely limited to posting rights on campus announcing meetings/events or an ability to lease a booth during student orientation.
Students fees are sucked up by sports, primarily to cover hundreds of thousands in insurance premiums for traveling teams.
Sports neatly avoid these inclusion rules by having "try outs" and thus limiting their rosters legally. Title IX lets them escape co-ed sports by having separate-but-equal programs for men and women (but wait, that's not necessarily require now either). Where transgender players are supposed to go, I'm not sure. I digress.
This ruling means any group can be taken over by organized disruptors. A Christian group can be overrun by angry atheists and destroyed from within. In theory, a gay club could be overrun by traditional marriage proponents and so forth.
We'll see how that goes or whether this is another case of "some are more equal than others" where anything deemed dominant, male or mainstream must be inclusive to its own dilution and peril while anything deemed minority can be exclusionary to protect and strengthen its unique identity and preserve diversity.
Women fall into the second group despite being more than half the population. It's all about balancing the tyranny of the evil patriarchy of course. /s
I suggest students TEST this ruling by joining clubs they wouldn't otherwise and see if they're tossed out for disagreeing because--gasp--they're accused of creating a hostile environment threatening to a favored group.
I believe non-Christians were trying to infiltrate the leadership positions.
I must ping this tomorrow.
Thanks ZGuy.
>> So, then can Jews and Christians join Muslim organizations too?
No, you can't do that. That's crusading.
Well, the dime goes to the overall university environment. I don't think anything consensual between students carried on and advertised entirely outside campus would fall under even this ruling, but who knows.
