The Lone Ranger actor joined Alice Cooper on stage at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles on Thursday.
"Johnny was in great spirits," a fellow concertgoer tells PEOPLE. "He was really happy and at ease, especially on stage with the rest of the band."
During their performance, Depp and Cooper played several cover songs including The Doors' "Break On Through (To the Other Side)," The Beatles' "Revolution" and Jimi Hendrix's "Foxy Lady."
Depp – who stepped out solo – was enjoying a "guys night" and wasn't "with any ladies," the source adds.

2.A slutty man
David is such a manwhore.
από RED 8 Φεβρουάριος 2003
a man who has sex with any woman he can regardless of thier appearance. he has no feeling for any women and is not capable of love.
nicholas day of clinton massachusetts is the biggest manwhore i know
από dom tonnellan 8 Αύγουστος 2010
A self-centered fool with nothing going for them except for their dick which they are convinced is the biggest and best around. A liar who repeats one liners he's heard in films to get girls to put out. Someone who tells so many lies they even lie when they don't have to. Someone with no feelings or guilt about their selfish retarded behavior. Often a man with a very low IQ or otherwise known as a thick person. A man who is delusional about their looks and their sexual skills. A creature that is made from a turd who should have been killed at birth.
Man Whore: "Don't give me "its hormones" cos I got you pregnant - I got hormones too!"
Man Whore: "I know you are having my abortion but I haven't been on holiday in three years and there's nothing I can do about it." (subtext - if it bothers you so much keep it)
Man Whore: "You're different from all those other girls."

Younger guys who may or may not know it flirt with many girls at the same time. They generally have many girls that are friends and treat each one like their best friend. This makes girls confused at points if they don't know the guy is a manwhore yet. They are almost always surprisingly vary emotional guys. Often in a relationship a manwhores confuses lust for love. They get over obsessive or not attached at all. Relationships almost never last long and they are off to the next girl. Getting in a relationship with a Manwhores is not recommended however manwhores make grate friends because they are funny, emotional and vary charitable. Plus if you are looking for a one-time thing with no emotional attachment like I said manwhores are grate friends.
Don is extremely hot and flirts with me like crazy so I thought he liked me. But then I found out he was a manwhore so now were just friends.
από Amanda Wagner 8 Απρίλιος 2008
A very attractive guy who leads you on and treats you like a princess, but hes only in it for the sex. He will make you feel like the world. He only calls you when he wants to use you. He gets pissed when you call him a "manWhore" so obviously he knows he is one. he also hugs EVERY girl he can! and he walks like he has a stick up his ass. They are usually pretty swole, and attractive.
That nick guy is such a manwhore! He tried me then all my friends!

verb: to make someone sitting in the back seat uncomfortably cold, by rolling down the front windows of the car. The perpetrator is usually a drunk fat-ass, and an inconsiderate boor, who is not interested in the comfort of fellow passengers. They can be easily identified by their robust neck meat. While the fatnecker is only interested in his own comfort, the person being fatnecked is usually too shy to ask the fatnecker to roll up his window, because the fatnecker is usually an older, burly, high school senior, and the victim, a skinny, waifish, freshman, who will have to earn the respect of his peers before dictating the climate of the vehicle..
"Man, that asshole fatnecked me all the way to Memphis last night. While he was in the front seat, sweating, and being loud and drunk, I was in the back seat, shivering, and too timid to ask him if he could roll up his window."

Can you define these popular missing words?
if you have a fat neck, it means you are proud, showing off, or bragging non-verbally. This term was coined when a friend of ours would get arrogant in a debate and tuck his chin in thus fattening his neck.
How fat is your neck over the new job?
Do you need the doors widened to fit your fat neck through?
Is that new dress you bought a total neckk thickener?
My neck is so fat over kissing Vince Neil.

, updated February 5, 2013 at 6:25 AM
By Valerie Strauss
New Yorkers had two special reasons to tune in to President Obama's call, in his second inaugural address, to heed the dangers of climate change and work together to reduce them.
Just three months ago, more than 100 people were killed and tens of thousands left homeless in coastal New York and New Jersey due to Superstorm Sandy – the kind of extreme weather event that scientists warn is more likely if we continue to spew greenhouse gas emissions into our atmosphere.
At the same time, however, New Yorkers can take pride that our state has joined the fight to make our region and our planet safer – in part by participating in the pioneering Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), the pact by nine Northeast and mid-Atlantic states to reduce the pollution that causes climate change.
RGGI is the nation's first "cap-and-trade" system to cut greenhouse gases from power plants. It sets a cap, or limit, on carbon dioxide emissions, and power plants must have an allowance for each ton they emit. The allowances are bought at periodic auctions, with much of that money then used directly for energy efficiency or other clean energy programs.
In just the past four years, RGGI has added $326 million to our state's gross domestic product, while creating more than 4,600 new jobs, according to research by the Analysis Group. It has also helped reduce New Yorkers' energy bills by $200 million. These are all formidable benefits – but now RGGI can and must go further.
In the next few days, the pact's commissioners plan to decide whether to tighten the regional cap on greenhouse gases. For the sake of both our environment and our economy, the choice should be clear.
The original cap of 165 million tons per year has become meaningless because it's far in excess of our current emission levels, now estimated at 91 million tons. Resetting the cap to that 91-million-ton level would ensure that even as our economies grow, we keep a strict lid on greenhouse gas pollution. Researchers estimate this would also provide $3.9 billion for the region to invest in energy efficiency and renewable energy programs through 2020. That translates to more green-collar jobs, more cost savings for consumers and a cleaner, safer environment.
In his State-of-the-State address earlier this month, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo pledged his support for strengthening RGGI by lowering the current cap to a level that assures emissions are reduced below current levels. We hope others will follow his lead. That would be good for New York, the Northeast and the nation.
Valerie Strauss is the interim executive director of the Alliance for Clean Energy New York.

New York City Street Homelessness Rises 6%
The number of homeless people living in New York City public spaces increased 6% in 2014 compared with 2013, according to records released Friday by Mayor Bill de Blasio's administration.
An estimated 3,357 people were living on the streets, in city parks and other areas during an annual survey conducted in January, marking an increase of 177 people from January 2013. This year's estimate showed 1,808 people living in subways, a 2% decrease from the year before.
Unsheltered homelessness rose the most in Queens, surging 158%, and on Staten Island, rising 43%, records show. In Manhattan, the borough with the most street homelessness, there was a 13% increase. In the Bronx, unsheltered homelessness grew 17%, and in Brooklyn it declined 29%.
The latest data on unsheltered homelessness comes as New York City faces an unprecedented number of people sleeping each night in city shelters. As of Wednesday, there were more than 53,000 people in a city shelter, including more than 23,000 children, records show.
City officials said the ratio of unsheltered homeless people to the city's total population – 1 in 2,504 – remains one of the lowest of any major city in the country. But in New York City, through the aggressive work of advocates for the homeless, the city is required by law to offer shelter to the homeless.
This annual survey of unsheltered homeless is required by the federal government and conducted in New York City each year on the last Monday in January.
Street homelessness in the five boroughs has decreased 24% since 2005, but subway homelessness has more than doubled in the same period. To combat the problem on the subways, Mr. de Blasio's administration and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority agreed to co-fund a $6 million expanded outreach program beginning next month.
Gilbert Taylor, commissioner of the city's Department of Homeless Services, said his agency is working aggressively on new measures to address the issue and plans to work with the MTA to focus on subway outreach.
At a City Council hearing on Friday, several council members urged Mr. de Blasio's budget director, Dean Fuleihan, to increase city resources to prevent homelessness. Mr. de Blasio pledged during the campaign and since he has taken office to make reducing homelessness a top priority, but some advocates and elected officials have said they don't believe the administration is doing enough.
Earlier this week, the administration said it will dedicate 750 apartments each year in public housing to families in the city's shelter system, a number much lower than advocates and some elected officials requested. The city is currently seeking permission from the state to move forward with two initiatives that will provide rental assistance to help families move out of shelters.

Celebrity Central / Top 25 Celebs
Khloé Kardashian
- 1984
The Beginning of a Dynasty
Already parents to Kim and Kourtney, defense attorney Robert Kardashian and his wife Kris Houghton welcome their third daughter, Khloé Alexandra, to their posh L.A. lifestyle. Khloé and her sisters are eventually joined by younger brother Robert Jr., and the girls go on to "clique" with classmates and future starlets Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie.
- 1994
A Family Trial
After her parents' 1989 divorce, Khloé's family becomes even more divided when her father, Robert, defends friend O.J. Simpson following the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman. Mom Kris – who weds Olympian Bruce Jenner in 1991 – believes the football star is guilty of killing her best friend, Nicole. "We were never told to pick sides, but we felt like we kind of had to," Khloé says.
- 2002
Bad to the Bone
After her sisters graduate from L.A.'s Marymount High School, Khloé feels the pangs of loneliness. "[I] felt like I didn't have any friends. There was no reason for me to stay," she confesses of leaving school and earning her GED through a home-schooling program. "I finished three years of high school in one year," Kardashian says proudly. "I graduated actually when I was 17 with honors, so in your face!"
- 2003
A Tragic Goodbye
Just eight weeks after learning he had esophagus cancer, Robert Kardashian dies at age 59. "I was seriously the luckiest girl in the world growing up because I had two amazing dads who not only loved us kids more than anything, but adored each other as well," she writes on her blog of her late father and stepdad Jenner.
- 2007
After Kim's infamous sex tape with ex Ray J surfaces, the family remains a united front, weathering the media storm together. Producer Ryan Seacrest sees TV ratings potential in the clan, and a new E! reality project called Keeping Up with the Kardashians is born. "At the heart of this series – despite the catfights and endless sarcasm – is a family that truly loves and supports one another," he tells Variety.
Breakout Star
Though Variety dubs the sisters "talentless tarts," the family's refreshing honesty and Khloé's entertaining wit catapult the series to the highest-rated show on Sunday nights among women aged 18 to 34. "We love each other on camera, we cry on camera. I think people relate to the realness of it," Khloé tells Redbook of their unique family dynamic.
- 2008
After violating the terms of probation following a March 2007 DUI charge, Khloé is sentenced to up to 30 days in prison. Though she ultimately serves only three hours behind bars, she says she's learned her lesson. "What I could have done is just unthinkable," she says of her drunk driving. "I will never, ever do that again."
- 2009
You're Fired!
Khloé takes a break from her family to go it alone on Celebrity Apprentice. But after six episodes, the reality star is fired from the NBC hit because of her 2007 DUI bust. "I hate people who drive under the influence," Donald Trump says during her dismissal. "I don't think I should have been fired for that reason alone," she says in her defense.
Spin-off City
After three seasons of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Khloé and big sis Kourtney embark on a new adventure à deux with Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami, in which the pair opens a new branch of their family boutique, DASH.
Changed Woman
After dating her fair share of athletes, Khloé becomes inseparable from L.A. Lakers star Lamar Odom. "With her I was like, 'If I do what I normally do, I'm going to lose her,'" Odom tells Playboy of their burgeoning romance. "And if I lose her, I think it's going to hurt a lot. Right then and there I knew. We were together every day." In a matter of weeks, the NBA star proposes to Kardashian – and she says yes.

Emily Blunt is considered to be an actress whose profile is on the rise here in the States. She had a good sized role in The Devil Wears Prada which has helped catapult her career as well as Anne Hathaway's. She was recently seen in films we've reviewed in Sunshine Cleaning and The Great Buck Howard. Most notably, however, she was once thought to be in for the role of Black Widow in the follow up to last summer's hit Iron Man, Iron Man 2. But, she eventually lost out on the gig. She recently spoke with MTV about the role and why it didn't work out for her. It turned out to be a scheduling conflict with her gig in Gulliver's Travels, opposite Jack Black. In essence, she gets Black over Black Widow or Jack over Robert Downey Jr.
"It was one of things that was conflicting," Blunt told MTV News. "So it's a shame the two of them couldn't work together. It just got complicated, so I think I had to pull out for my own sanity more than anything."
Even though she's left "Iron Man 2" behind, Blunt was reluctant to dish any info about the still-secretive plot—not even a hint if Black Widow will be Stark's love interest or adversary.
"See, that's the other thing, I can't give anything away on that front," she said. "I'm not going to say! I'm not going to say! I'm going to get someone in trouble. Look at me, I'm such a goody-two-shoes!"
Which means that for all her Hollywood success, she still hasn't gotten used to the ethos of Tinseltown. "It's all about back-stabbing here," she joked.
Did that mean she wouldn't take a shot at the actress assuming the Black Widow role, Scarlett Johansson? Even though Scar-Jo reportedly screen-tested for the gig and lost out to Blunt?
"She'll do a great job," Blunt said, choosing her words carefully. "She'll get up on that high-wire and do a great job."
Blunt still seems to be trying to get the hang of how the biz works here in H-wood. She wants to say more it appears, but cannot. She is gracious about Scarlett, but honestly, wouldn't most of us have preferred Blunt to Johannson? Not that there is anything wrong with ScarJo, but her profile seems a bit big for the Widow role and she runs the risk of Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury in being too ubiquitous in roles and comic book movies to blend into the character. She was in The Spirit at Christmas time and just seems to be getting too big of a personality for this role. We will see how it all plays out. What do you think?

When a group of men invite women to a party with the goal of eventually having sex with them on the premises.
The party at Joe's house started out tame, but by the time everyone started playing strip poker, it started to segue into a no holds barred clam bang. Chicks ended up gettin' pumped everywhere!

Ahhh!!! So jealous! I just went to his concert on Monday in South Bend. But, I most definitely did not meet him. :) Aren't his concerts amazing? They all have such great chemistry and are totally funny. If we ever meet, I totally want to hear about his interactions with Georgia. I can only imagine how sweet it probably was. And your post about the neighbors this morning, totally made me laugh. Too funny!ReplyDelete
Awesome! Of course, I went and checked the tour dates, but no Atlanta...ReplyDelete
One of my kids, who must have SLEPT through the month of February, saw my group photo with Harry from BlissDom scroll through on our digital frame yesterday (because wouldn't you put a photo of Harry on your digital frame?) and said, "Was Harry Connick, Jr. at BlissDom?" Good grief.
So jealous!!! I LOVE Harry! How fun...so glad you had a great time!ReplyDelete
Just wanted to to say so happy I found you again!! Life got away from me.. anyways I am back and so happy to be reading again.ReplyDelete
And oh my goodness.. amazing.
You are so cool :)ReplyDelete
How fun! So glad you got out and enjoyed yourself. Sounds like it is just what you needed! :)ReplyDelete
I'm totally jealous too!ReplyDelete
I live in a very small town, Brockville Ontario. A few years ago Harry was coming through in the middle of winter on his way to Quebec city for a televised show. He decided to make a stop HERE of all places in our little theatre to practice the show with his band.ReplyDelete
Our little theatre is TINY and people lined up the night before for tickets.
I too phoned up my friend Sarah who I have known since childhood and told her I had 2 tickets for the show thanks to my husband who lined up at midnight for me.
It was up close and personal and AMAZING. I too love Harry.
yay for you!!!!!!!!!!!

LISBON - Columbiana County Sheriff Ray Stone is unlikely to join the ranks of those county sheriffs who say they will refuse to enforce any changes in the nation's gun laws they believe are unconstitutional.
"My job is not to interpret the law but to enforce it," he said.
Stone's comments came after he posted an open letter dated Feb. 7 to county citizens on the sheriff's office Facebook page. Dated Feb. 7, the letter outlines Stone's position on the coming controversy over efforts by President Obama and Congress to enact new gun-control laws in response to the school shooting in Newtown, Conn.
The letter is a form letter prepared by the Buckeye State Sheriffs Association (BSSA), and he decided to adopt it as his position on the gun controversy after being asked his opinion on the department's Facebook page. In the letter, Stone noted that while his oath is to "support" the U.S. and Ohio constitutions, he is also required to enforce duly passed laws by Congress and the state legislature.
"Ultimately, it is the United State Supreme Court and the lower courts that possess the power to interpret the laws and determine the constitutionality of the laws," he wrote.
Stone has said before he supports the Second Amendment right of law-abiding citizens to possess firearms and Ohio's concealed-carry law.
The sheriff decided to post the letter rather than continue getting drawn into online discussions on the topic.
"I'm getting besieged, like every other sheriff, with questions about what are we going to do if Obama tries to take our guns off us," he said. "I'm not going to get caught up commenting on this on Facebook. If I start, I'll be there all the time."
Stone said has fielded phone calls on the subject from people and spoken with others he has run into, and he will continue to do so. He just prefers not doing so on the Internet because of the seemingly never-ending nature of most online discussions on the subject.
"I don't really like it, but you have to keep up, and it has its benefits," he said. "But we're not going to use Facebook to chat back and forth with people, or we'll be on Facebook all day."
Stone has been criticized online by some for his decision to let the letter define his position. "There's fanatics from the left and fanatics from the right, so you're damned if you do and damned if you don't," he said.
While about 100 sheriffs from around the country have pledged not to enforce any new guns laws they deem unconstitutional, nearly all of the major law enforcement groups have supported some of the gun control efforts over the years, including a ban on semi-automatic rifles.
Stone indicated he does not intend to join those ranks, saying he will reserve judgment until a bill is passed. As for the 23 gun-related executive orders issued by President Obama several weeks ago, "some of them were good," he said, such as improved access to mental health records for background checks and increased money for police to provide school security. Stone said they also need longer prison sentences for people who commit a crime using a firearm.
According to the letter, Stone and the BSSA believe a "comprehensive approach and societal change of attitude towards firearms are imperative. Training, education, safety incentives, mental health treatment and reduction of a culture of violence must be included in this approach. Please understand that emotions are running at a fever pitch but we cannot allow ourselves to fail on this most important issue," he concluded.

Chris Ziolkowski, a general contractor who spends many of his working days on Buffalo rooftops, never expected to see his work in Albright-Knox Art Gallery.
But on Saturday, Ziolkowski's sculpture, which he pieced together from about 15 kinds of roofing material as part of an unorthodox exhibition devised by local artist and architect Dennis Maher, will go on view in the region's most respected museum. It is part of an exhibition that includes works by eight local masons, electricians, weatherization experts and other contractors Maher enlisted for the project.
"I'm overwhelmed," said Ziolkowski, who owns Zee's Property Services, a 27-year-old general contracting business headquartered on Jefferson Avenue. "People try to get in there their whole life, and they don't get it. Pardon me, but this schmuck was asked to make a piece, and it's going in the art gallery, heavy-duty."
The exhibition, called "House of Collective Repair," is the culmination of an art project that Maher began in 2009, when he bought a house on Fargo Avenue, at the edge of the D'Youville College campus.
Maher, whose work deals with the decline of Buffalo buildings, gradually turned the house, where he lives, into a living piece of installation art. When he bought it, the house was dilapidated and under the threat of demolition, which allowed Maher to buy it for just $10,000.
As part of the project, Maher invited the contractors through the house, which he structurally modified in hundreds of large and small ways and filled with an ever-changing collection of sculptures and other artworks.
The contractors drew inspiration for their individual sculptures from the house, an outsize cabinet of curiosities that Ziolkowski called simply "wild." In the course of his project, Maher has strategically made holes in the walls and floors, effectively peeling back the materials of the house to reveal decades of changes and renovations.
A collection of dollhouses (with which Maher has something of an obsession) is stacked in the basement and visible from the top floor. The ceiling of what used to be the attic is covered in hollow-core doors, underneath which sits a collection of old armoire parts and several sculptural works-in-progress.
"I really want to make sure the building is taken care of at the same time as it's treated as an experiment," Maher told The Buffalo News in September. He describes the house project as "an organism," or a kind of dollhouse, meant to represent the larger city and new ways to confront Buffalo's housing challenges and other issues of space and living.
The project, he continued, "is like a mirror of the houses outside, bringing [the outside] inside and then reconstituting it and creating within it a kind of marvelous, fantastic landscape."
Maher's Albright-Knox residency, he said, was a way to open up the work he has been doing there to a wider swath of Buffalonians. Given logistical challenges and occupancy limits (not to mention the fact that Maher still lives in the house), opening up the house to the public isn't possible. But the gallery exhibition, he said, is a way to "engage the public, engage the people who move through [the house] and get them to think about their living environment."
Maher praised the gallery for backing the project.
"I think the Albright deserves a lot of credit for actually supporting someone who's based in the area," he said.
For Ziolkowski, Maher's message seems simple enough:
"To me, it looks like the ability to reuse materials and look at them in new ways," he said. His own sculpture "looks like a three-story, open-sided home made out of various roofing materials [like] slate and copper. It was an interesting experience. I have never done anything like that before, so it was kind of nice to bring out some creative juices in myself."
The other contractors whose work is featured in the exhibition are Joaquin Aristizabal of Amecol Construction, Dan Farrell of Lost Cities Restorations, Joe Galvin of Home Restoration Painting, Jamillah Green of United Mechanical Contracting, Dave Hill of Bricks, Sticks & Stones, Khallidah McQueen of Quality First, and Peter A. and Al Szalay of A&B Light Heat & Power.
The Albright-Knox show, running until May 12, marks the culmination of Maher's residency at the museum, but he is hoping to turn the project into something much bigger.
"In some ways, the house is about making visible those less visible city features and, in so doing, finding another city. It reflects, but it also finds the new, in my view," Maher said. "I'm interested in eventually thinking about this whole project as a kind of center for the urban imaginary."

Stakeholders in the regenerative medicine sector recognize that the commercialization of novel therapeutic interventions faces a number of bottlenecks before these treatments can be adopted by existing healthcare providers. Since companies focused on regenerative medicine first attracted investment, many firms have identified opportunities and have set about attempting to commercialize them.
However, only a handful of companies have actually been able to solve the technical and commercial challenges and reap the rewards. While proof of therapeutic principle may be established early in the development process, many of the product development and manufacturing challenges that lie in wait to kill off a concept could be avoided if the engineering challenges are addressed in parallel.
There are a number of key issues that need to be addressed by the regenerative medicine industry collectively in order for product-development activities to generate significant levels of investment, and to see products being taken up by healthcare systems in volume.
From an engineering and product development perspective, two critical issues need to be resolved in order for the various resulting therapies to go mainstream: development and implementation of standards, and reducing the cost of goods. In both cases it is clear that overcoming many of the major barriers for those at the cutting edge of regenerative technology lies in precompetitive collaboration. In this article we've focused on the requirement for standards.
Regulatory guidance covering the development of regenerative medicine therapies exists; however, there is room for considerable subjectivity in the interpretation of these guidelines by sector stakeholders across different territories. The value of developing and introducing formal standards across common research, development, and production processes is that it provides a basis for best practice, and thus aligns and potentially expedites commercialization of therapies.
As a guiding principle, the formalization of best practice into recognized standards should be a constructive process for the benefit of the industry as a whole. That is to say, it is not so much about restrictive rules; it is about the development of common, validated methods and solutions that contribute to quality, safety, and performance.
By working within a common standards framework, companies operating in the regenerative medicine space can share best practices and use this as a platform upon which to accelerate innovation. There is also opportunity to position these standards as a benchmark upon which regenerative medicine therapies, and the underlying processes by which they are derived, must meet to gain regulatory approval.
The field of regenerative medicine is a complex regulatory environment, heavily segmented with many different variants and definitions of what constitutes regenerative medicine. It is also a multidisciplinary field covering, for example, tissue sampling, manipulation of cell lines, encapsulation, information handling, and delivery devices.
As with many other sectors before it, validated methodologies are being created internationally, and so standards need to be harmonized globally. A wider challenge that emerges once a standard or best practice has been agreed upon by stakeholders is how to achieve widespread adoption.
Developers of regenerative medicine need to be able to demonstrate cost-effective, expedient development programs combined with feasible commercialization strategies in order to attract significant investor funding. Equally, robust exit strategies for investors also need to be defined in order to attract funding in the long term. The introduction of harmonized standards as a means to de-risk generic R&D and production processes can support these commercial considerations.

H+: The Digital Series, Warner Premiere Digital's apocalyptic tale of computer implants in the human mind, is my recommendation this Thursday in the LA Weekly for the Best of the Web. You can read my article on the LA WEEKLY website HERE or check it out in the print edition in the FILM section.
The innovative storytelling of first-time creators John Cabrera and Cosimo De Tommaso as well as the insightful direction by Stewart Hendler on what a studio would call a shoe-string budget, was one of the main reasons I wanted to feature this piece. Cabrera and Tommaso created the world of the show back in 2006 and pursued it's creation through years of setbacks. I think their story is inspirational for writers and exciting for those interested in creating new forms of storytelling specifically for the web. Here is my entire interview with Cosimo and John that I used as research for my LA Weekly piece.

State police investigating the death of woman struck by a truck while walking along the Thruway Tuesday night in Lancaster said the woman is believed to have been involved in a one-car accident and walked away from the scene a little less than an hour and a half earlier.
The first accident was reported at about 6:40 p.m. on the eastbound side of the Thruway in Lancaster. By the time troopers arrived, the driver had left. The driver was believed to have walked toward a side road in Lancaster.
Then at 8:06 p.m., a 2005 Volvo tractor-trailer driven by a 43-year-old Quebec man that was in the right-hand lane of the eastbound side of the Thruway struck and killed a woman who had walked into the lane.
The tractor-trailer driver was not injured. No tickets were issued.
The accident forced the closure of the eastbound side of the Thruway until 1:20 a.m.
Authorities are withholding the identity of the victim pending notification of family.
Investigators also were asking anyone who may have information or witnessed something in connection to the case to contact state police in Clarence at 759-6831 or state police in Buffalo at 935-6570.

Precise offers and the art of haggling
Negotiating prices is an important skill to have, and not just for those times when you visit countries where haggling over small purchases is common practice.
While most day-to-day purchases aren't negotiable in this country in the same way they are in Latin America and Asia, most of the really significant ones are. In many cases, skillful haggling can knock thousands of dollars off the price of a car and tens of thousands off the price of a house, which can have long-lasting effects on your finances. And when you're sitting down for an interview with a potential employer and talking salary, you're really negotiating arguably the most important price out there: the price of your labor and, ultimately, your time.

The thing I loved most about being a reporter was this: Crazy could break out at any time, and often did. I covered brawls at funeral homes ("You're the reason Mama's dead!") and civic meetings that turned into free-for-alls, with yelling taxpayers and fuming officials. Whether funny, shocking or touching, like the old saying goes… you can't make this stuff up.
Let's look at some national headlines from last week:
A man hid in a Kentucky supermarket and emerged after closing time with a healthy appetite: He cooked and ate six steaks, and topped 'em off with shrimp, birthday cake and beer. Then he crawled up in the ceiling and, presumably, fainted dead away. The manager found him up there the next day. The whole escapade is on tape. I can't imagine what he was doing or taking to create that kind of appetite, but he's gonna be hungry in jail.A Kings Mountain, N.C. woman was charged with beating another woman with a Bible, thus giving new meaning to the term "Bible-thumper." The 57-year-old suspect also punched out a man, so we can all guess what's going on there. I've never seen anyone smote with a Bible except my great-aunt Henri, who had a cyst on her wrist. My Baptist deacon father smacked her wrist cyst with the family Bible, which made Henri holler like a wet hen. But the cyst went away.A Virginia couple was arrested in Myrtle Beach—make that ON Myrtle Beach—when they were discovered wet and naked to the world in the pre-dawn darkness. They claimed they went skinny-dipping and returned to find their clothes missing. Of course, because that happens to so many tourists who swim nude at 3 a.m. They face disorderly conduct and public nudity charges. I would've cited them for not making up a better story.And you think you have lousy neighbors: A Washington state man had the last word in a property line dispute when he drove a bulldozer through four neighbors' homes. He also knocked down a utility pole, leaving thousands of other residents without power. What a prince! Wonder if he plans to draw a line down the middle of his prison cell?A garbage truck driver in New Jersey sneezed and took out half a subdivision. The driver claimed that when he sneezed, a water bottle rolled under the brake pedal. Before you could say "Bless you," the truck jumped a curb, careened across four lawns and smashed into a house occupied by a woman and her twin daughters. The impact sparked an electrical fire that damaged the house and the garbage truck. The family escaped, and neighbors pulled the driver to safety. I think he should switch to coffee, or even Jim Beam. That water'll kill ya.And finally….
A Tennessee man who stole a big-rig truck and caused several accidents gave a perfectly plausible explanation: He was running from zombies. He stowed away in the truck in Tennessee and hijacked it when the driver got out in Temecula, CA. After causing several crashes (and who knows how many coronaries), he finally flipped the rig and spilled strawberries all over an interstate… thus causing an epic traffic JAM. (Sorry, I can't help it.) He told cops "he had to speed and swerve because he was fleeing from the walking dead." He pleaded guilty to five felonies. When he's paroled, he can teach the Myrtle Beach nudists how to craft a REAL excuse for crime. Zombies: your ace in the hole.Julie R.

And You Call Yourself a Film Buff?! ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST
In high school, my 12th grade summer reading assignment was One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. I actually read the book instead of cheating by watching the movie, assuming that my English teacher would show us the film when we returned to school in the Fall. Apparently, I was hoping for too much there. Although I read the book over 5 years ago, I remember enjoying it more than I enjoyed the film this weekend. Yet, I also feel like the film was true to the book. Go figure.
I'm going to state the obvious and say that R.P. McMurphy was not crazy.

5 Easy Ways to Protect Your Reputation OnlineBy Cheryl Snapp Conner 08.03.2016Read More >
Ricoh PJ WX5460
Bottom Line: The Ricoh PJ WX5460 doesn't handle fine detail as well as most projectors, but it shows very few rainbow artifacts, and is both light enough to carry easily and bright enough for a midsize room.
Menusoft Systems Digital Dining
Bottom Line: If mobility for the wait staff is a priority, then Menusoft Systems Digital Dining is a point-of-sale (POS) software solution definitely worth considering. But purchase analytics, e-commerce, and mobile commerce elements still need refinement.
Action Systems Restaurant Manager
Bottom Line: A mixed bag in terms of mobile support, Action Systems Restaurant Manager's feature selection and customization options are the strong points of this point-of-sale (POS) software solution. If you've already deployed a mobile strategy, this is a POS solution to examine.
Revention POS
Bottom Line: If all you need are basic point-of-sale (POS) capabilities, then POS software solution Revention POS could be an excellent and low-cost option.
Posera Maitre'D POS
Bottom Line: Although Posera Maitre'D POS is one of the higher-priced point-of-sale (POS) software solutions in this review roundup, that price tag buys a lot of features in this generally stable, robust, and mature system.
PAR Brink POS
Bottom Line: If you're open to the cloud, PAR Brink POS is a point-of-sale (POS) software solution absolutely worth evaluating. But, if cloud isn't on your wish list, there are better alternatives.
Aldelo POS Pro
Bottom Line: A good price and basic features, coupled with front-of-store reliability, makes Aldelo a point-of-sale (POS) software solution to strongly consider.

Maryland Department of Labor Cautions Workers and Employers About Dangerous Heat
BALTIMORE, MD (July 21, 2011) Weather services are advising extreme and dangerous heat for most of the state today and Friday. Temperatures will reach 100 degrees in parts of the state, and heat indices could top 115 degrees.
Extreme heat poses health hazards for people who work outdoors. Indoor employees, especially those who work in bakeries, pizza shops, laundry facilities and kitchens, are also at risk of heat stress. The Department of Labor's (DLLR) Maryland Occupational Safety and Health (MOSH) unit is advising employers to take appropriate precautions against heat stress and be knowledgeable about the signs of heat-associated illnesses.
The only thing more important to Marylanders than a job that provides for their families is the comfort that their loved ones are safe at work. As temperatures rise, employers and employees especially those working outdoors must understand the warning signs of heat stress, said Maryland Labor Secretary Alexander M. Sanchez. The key ingredients for safe work in extreme heat are water, rest and shade.
Employers should ensure that workers are acclimatized to the level of heat in which they will be working, which may take several weeks of gradual exposure to the environmental heat and work levels associated with the job, said Ron DeJuliis, DLLRs Commissioner of Labor and Industry. Also, workers should be trained in the effects of heat and be able to recognize heat stress symptoms in themselves and fellow workers.
While high temperatures are certainly a key signal to the hazards of heat-associated illnesses, other factors contribute equally to the body's response to the effects of a hot work area. These include the level of work being performed, radiant heat sources (e.g., boilers, ovens, sunlight), humidity, air velocity and clothing. An individual's response to heat is also affected by age, weight, fitness, medical condition and acclimatization to the heat.
High humidity levels reduce sweat evaporation and the body's ability to rid itself of excess heat. When the body cannot rid itself of excess heat it will store it, resulting in increased core body temperature and heart rate. Increased sweating dehydrates the body and reduces essential electrolytes often resulting in severe muscle cramps. Blood pressure tends to fall.
As the body continues to store heat, an individual may begin to lose concentration and the ability to focus on a task. A worker may become irritable or sick and often lose the desire to drink. Eventually, the body may lose its ability to sweat and the internal core temperature will continue to rise. This can result in heat stroke, a medical emergency that may result in death if not addressed immediately.
The Maryland Department of Labor recommends these actions to prevent heat stress and heat stroke:
Questions concerning heat stress in the workplace can be referred to the Maryland Occupational Safety and Health (MOSH) program by calling 410-527-4447. Additional Information can be located on the OSHA webpage.
The Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation protects and empowers Marylanders by safeguarding workers, protecting consumers, providing a safety net and cultivating a thriving workforce that can meet the demands of Marylands dynamic economy. Follow DLLR on Twitter (@MD_DLLR) and Facebook.

Half-human and half-wyr, Pia Giovanni spent her life keeping a low profile among the wyrkind and avoiding the continuing conflict between them and their dark Fae enemies. But after being blackmailed into stealing a coin from the hoard of a dragon, Pia finds herself targeted by one of the most powerful-and passionate-of the Elder races.
Read Thea Harrison's blogs and other content on the Penguin Community.
Dear Reader Letter
Dear Reader,
They say you can't run away from your karma but the heroine of Dragon Bound gives it her very best try. Pia Giovanni makes only one mistake—well, okay she makes two. Her ex-boyfriend is not the most shining example of her best judgment, nor is the fact that she might have shared one itty-bitty secret with him when they had been together.
We all have things that keep us humble, right? If only exes stayed in the past where they belonged… Unfortunately for Pia, hers doesn't. Pia's ex-boyfriend uses her itty-bitty secret to blackmail her into stealing from Dragos Cuelebre, Lord of the Wyr. The Great Beast.
As for Dragos, he's a guy who's used to things going his way pretty much all of the time. He is the center of his own universe. His wish is everybody else's command. And no one steals from the Great Beast and gets away with it. No one.
So the chase is on.
He sets a trap for Pia but then he finds himself ensnared. Pia skips out of his demesne, and he violates border treaties to hunt her down. He's enraged, baffled, amused, intrigued, and at times he is all of those things at once. He never understood how bored he was until Pia came along to shake loose the assumptions he had of himself and his world. And he never realized how truly invulnerable he was until he grew to care about someone else, and suddenly that invulnerability of his gets stripped away.
As for Pia, Dragos might not be a very good man but she comes to think he's actually a pretty good dragon. And it's a lot harder to try to run away from someone when you are crazy attracted to him.
Then they get kidnapped, and they have to learn to rely on each other to survive. Pia stops trying to run away from Dragos and Dragos starts protecting her. She even teaches him how to say please sometimes. Given his age and autocratic nature, that's more of an accomplishment than you might normally think.
Dragon Bound is the first in my new Elder Races series, and I had a wonderful time writing it. I loved Dragos and Pia's story and I'm excited at the chance to share it with you. I hope you have great fun visiting with them. I love to hear from readers, so drop me a line or two at firstname.lastname@example.com and let me know what you think. Or if you're interested in regular updates and the occasional outright silliness, you can also find me on Twitter and Facebook.
Thanks so much for your interest, and happy reading!
All the best,

An arrest has been made in connection with a Nov. 23 home invasion in the Town of Conewango, state police reported.
Anthony J. Eames, 26, with addresses in Elmira and Erin – both in Chemung County, was taken into custody Nov. 26 in the Elmira area, troopers said. Eames was charged with a felony count of robbery.
Troopers said they are looking for three additional men who entered a house at about 1 a.m. on Nov. 23, assaulted a man who lives there and stole three rifles, a shotgun and a cell phone. Those men are believed to be from Elmira, as well.
Anyone with information on the case is asked to call troopers in Jamestown at 665-3113 or in Horseheads at (607) 739-8797.

This past March was 21.2 degrees colder than the average statewide temperature in March of last year, said Jim Angel, a state climatologist for the Illinois State Water Survey.
The statewide temperature for March was 34.1 degrees, which is seven degrees below the long-term average of 41.1 degrees and the 11th coldest March on record.
In contrast, March 2012's average was 55.3 degrees, the warmest March on record.
The statewide precipitation was 2.85 inches, which is 0.15 inches below the long-term average of three inches. Precipitation amounts were the highest just east of St. Louis and the lowest in east-central Illinois. The largest monthly total came form Kaskaskia with 6.42 inches of precipitation.
Snowfall was above average for the month, thanks mostly to a large storm that passed through central Illinois on March 24-25 and some earlier events that passed through northern and western Illinois. Springfield received 17 inches of snow in 24 hours, a new record for that site.

Hello, building you awesome cnc machine. Trying to follow your directions and parts list step by step. one question, I know you hate us sometimes, by I got a great deal on aluminum stock that's 3/8 " thick . Can I use that thickness for the 5 stepper motor mount plates and 4 gantry mount plates that are 1/4 " thick to save on material and can I modify other parts if needed , if not I understand , Thanks, Chuck.
Yeah you can do that. I am using 3/8 6061 as well. The motors need about 1/8" deep circle cut out so the faces fit flush against the mount. The shafts are long enough to work with the extra width if you don't do that. It is usually better to have a flush mount though, reduces stress on the motor when it is mounted by dispersing the bolt tension forces across the whole plate rather than concentrated on the center area. This also smooths out vibration.

okay, I'm going to take some pictures of what I think of as 'opalescent' glass which has a fiery glow when held up to light. I believe the fiery glow is a result of bone ash content.
I am open to correction on all these
so please do.
Secondly a picture of what I think of as an 'opaline' jug, I believe mid 19th century, I wouldn't say a fiery glow like the opalescent pike, but yes a warm glow under lighting.
Then a third of a 1930's Stevens and Williams rose pink 'Alabaster' range cordial that I also call opaline glass. It is different to the previous two but not that much, and I've no idea if it contains bone ash.
Lastly a picture of a Baccarat Opaline perfume bottle again uncased, thick glass, translucent. No really fiery glow like the opalescent but I do remember when held up to sunlight there was a warm glow.
Later opaline glass, I 'think', does not generally have bone ash content and so whilst it looks like antique opaline glass does i.e is smooth opaque colour but has some translucency, it does not have a warm glow when held up to strong light. But I don't think that makes it not opaline glass?
However I did think that true opaline glass was simply one layer of glass, not cased but again I'm open to correction on that as it may simply be my misconception.
So what I mean by my question to you, is that not having a fiery glow may indicate it is not 'opalescent' glass but doesn't indicate it is not 'opaline' glass as opaline glass may or may not have a glow dependent on whether or not it was made with bone ash.
I'm open to correction here, as I do often wonder what exactly is the definition requirement for something to be classed as 'opaline' glass.
I have seen reference to what
think of as opaline glass, actually referred to as 'opaline type' glass in Gulliver's Decorative Victorian Glass. It looks like opaline glass to me, but perhaps is correctly referred to as 'opaline type' because it is not thought to be a Baccarat Opaline piece? I meant to start a discussion thread on it after we discussed my small white opaline jug with the red rim
Attached below is a picture of an
glass Molineaux Webb pike which has an obvious fiery glow
Also what I think is an antique mid 19th century, opaline glass jug, possibly Baccarat.
Neither are layered or cased.
I also attach a picture of a Stevens and Williams rose pink alabaster cordial. This I also call opaline glass but I don't believe it it cased. The white opaline from the stem is drawn up over the pink very finely at the bottom of the bowl but the pink is just one layer.
Finally a picture of an antique Baccarat Opaline glass perfume bottle again uncased.
I'll hunt out some pics of what I think of as modern 'opaline' glass and add them when I can find something to photograph.

1. modern probably 70's? pale yellow 'opaline' lidded glass jar - not cased, translucent colour but close up magnified looks very different to my antique 'opaline' glass pieces above. I would still call this opaline glass, no fiery /warm glow but it is uranium glass.
2. Blue 'opaline' glass Chance ashtray for Parker.
Just to add a reference for my comment above regarding Gulliver's Victorian Decorative Glass referring to a jug in what I would have called opaline glass, as 'opaline type' glass, the reference is page 238 and is the description of a mid 19thc large white jug with red trailed rim that looks very like a larger version of my small jug above. His description reads'...The alabaster colored body and applied strap type handle are formed in an opaline type glass. The body sits.....' A blue jug below this is described in the same way. Whereas a blue jug on page 248 decorated all over with silver leaves is described as being '...formed in blue opaline glass'. For the life of me I cannot see what the difference is or why two would be described as 'opaline type glass' but the other as 'opaline glass' unless he knows that the one described as 'opaline glass' is a French piece perhaps and the believes the others aren't. However that is just my speculation.

... Just to throw a spanner into the works, Thomas Hawkes, Dudley Glassworks England, produced a translucent pink opal, but egg cups??? I do not think so.... "Opaline" as is termed, was only ever produced in France, to the best of my knowledge. Opalescent, Opal and Opaline are all completely different. All said, a lot of working procedures have gone into producing the egg cups... French Opaline, they could very well be and may have just had a set of saucers at some point? Have seen side plates of this colour type, and also in pastel blue, but as to the maker??? John

If of any help: There are basically, three different kinds of opalescent glass however each type uses heat combined with coolness to provide its creamy-opalescent effect. In the first Sabino piece for example (don't worry please Anne, the glass is mine
) the blue-tinged & semi-opaque rich-creamy colour is produced by slower cooling of the
thicker parts
of the glass. The effects are astonishing under different light conditions. The glass glows a golden colour when light is allowed to shine through from behind, and then a wonderful opal-blue, bordering on violet-pink which blends into an almost white when lit from the front. Armed with this knowledge, it then takes thickly detailed glass patterns to bring this glass into life.
There is then also, vaseline (USA) uranium (GB) opalescent glass, as a second example. Here, the uranium glass has the ability to become completely opalescent throughout. Again, it is HEAT which will cause this. One can often note a dot of opalescent white, to the pontil mark upon such pieces, caused by the heat required to remove the ponty rod... The creamy-white at the top of this piece is governned by rotating the vase in a flame. The opalescence will not travel any further than the controlled heat allows it to. "Opalescent" glass is in essence a "heat sensitive" glass..., whereas "Opaline" and "Opal" are not... Not within English terminology of these glass types.
SORRY.. My Pics need to be compressed before I can add them... This may tke me 'til next Christmas... lol Am hopeless at such things :-(

Thank you for your comment on the pike.
Is this an example of uranium opalescent glass that might demonstrate your point? If not I'll delete it
It is a uranium opalescent bowl that glows a mad fiery glow in light.

nice pike m.............if you want to part with it, let me know
- although bearing in mind this piece includes uranium, I suggest we ignore it for the time being - we have enough confusion already.
Not really sure what you mean when you speak of a 'warm glow' - whatever that may mean technically
Something is either opalescent (a real sunset glow) or it isn't - however, not everything without a fiery glow automatically becomes opaline.
The S & W alabaster was made to copy the naturally occurring mineral (even down to the white flecks) - and the book makes no mention of the words opal/opaline. Apparently they were very secretive about the make up of their batch.
Many factories in Europe described their products under the heading of some variation on the words 'opal or opalescent' - and I doubt that you could now unravel the history of all of that.
Newman says that opaline was first made at Murano in the C17 (inspired by the Bohemians) - then France in the early C19, coming back to Venice in the 1930's - and he goes on to say that the early French material more resembled opaque white glass, but later pieces are closer to 'milk and water' glass.
I might suggest that in the absence of a fiery glow - but with a milk-like slightly translucent appearance - then you have opaline (also available in pastel colours).
John - I had some notion that opaline was produced in the States - is that wrong?
None of which helps Anne with her egg cups. Sorry Anne

Paul I think we may be talking at cross purposes
My original response to your post was to your specific comment
'According to 'The Crystal Years', S & W alabaster is cased but, unlike these pieces, doesn't have 'layers' that can be seen.
Neither does it (alabaster) have a sunset glow, so definitely not opaline.
(my underlining of the point I was responding to)
To me your comment read that if it doesn't have a sunset glow then it's definitely not opaline.
I was merely trying to demonstrate that opaline glass doesn't have a sunset glow although some of my older pieces do have a warm glow when held up to light. They just don't have your 'sunset' glow that I think you are referring to, meaning that of
glass I thought?
Yes, apart from the pike which is opalescent glass,
would call all my pieces opaline glass. However I'm not entirely sure that is technically or historically correct with regard to the definition of real opaline glass.
I also did not know that opaline glass could be layered or cased and still classified as opaline glass, which was my question earlier.
No, sorry the fish wont ever be for sale
well, not unless I come across another that is. Unsure what you meant about it containing uranium though - or did you mean the bowl?
I added the opalescent uranium bowl because I thought it might help John with the point he was making about opalescent glass. Happy to remove it if it's causing a problem

Paul S. I "think" that much confusion is caused in the main
due to the many different names that different countries call the very same glass-types... These things do not help, but cannot be avoided and nobody is to blame.
Certain terminology can also detract from what is the same: Warm Glow... Firery Glow... etc. A Glow is a glow after all and one will perhaps write "Firery" or "Warm"
when describing a certain glass. "MILKY-WHITE" or "CREAMY WHITE" for opalescent!
Same as Satin Finish... Matt-Frosted... but then again Satin GLASS is yet another term, which say in USA will be nown as Mother of Pearl...
But Mother of Pearl, was also termed by Kralik,
and both galss types are completely different...
The confusion continues to this very day and can become a mine field.
Many French folks will call any glass type Pate de Verre,
when to us here in England, Pate de Verre cannot be applied to every piece of glass...
We do not recognise Depression Glass or Vaseline Glass as terms which we have used...
It is Art Deco era glass or Uranium and not Vaseline.
Who is right or who is wrong is simple....
Neither of us are.
Center piece.. or Centrepiece? Color or Colour?
I would suggest that the only thing which truly differentiates, is the actual make-up of any glass-type; the ways in which it was produced, and when etc. which can determine what it is, rather than what "we" all choose to call it, in our own way.
And yes... OPALINE, to "ME" refers to a French glass, and was produced there only...
If or when the term OPALINE became more widespread, then fine, so be it perhaps,
but that is my individual understanding... as learned, and OPALINE glass is NOT Opalescent glass. It is an entirely different glass all together.
"Cranberry glass" ... or is it "Ruby" or "Crystal Cased Ruby Glass???"
Each glass type (it could be argued) is exactly the same...
Only the terms that are used are different,
used by whoever it is that is describing such glass...
I still like that Opalescent-Opal-Opaline Press-Moulded-Flashed-Glass Pike!

Paul S. You have hit the nail on the head: "Opalique" was only a trade name used by Jobling.. Same as say "Crystaltynt" ad even "Crystopal" by Bagley... They are not a "type" of glass, but names used for marketing their glass and unique to each glassworks, but Jobling Opalescent glass is more or less the same chemical make-up as any other as is also say Bagley "Crystopal" to Jadeite... There is even 'Almond Nouveau' glass usded by L E Smith, which in essence is 'Slag Glass' the ONLY difference being its name as used for marketing purposes.
Shucks.. why cannot EVERYHTING be known as PYREX! Life would be so much easier then. lol John
