But one viewer is not expecting the show to bring him much closure.
Joe Monteith, Cory's estranged father, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview that he wakes up heartbroken every morning, missing his son and wishing he could have said goodbye.
"It's just ripping my insides out and tearing me apart," the elder Monteith, 63, says tearfully.
Years of EstrangementJoe Monteith (who provided PEOPLE with family photos) had little contact with his son for most of his life, the result of a bitter divorce from Cory's mother, Ann McGregor, in 1989.

The last time Joe met Cory in person was about two years ago – after not seeing each other in 11 years. He says they talked about Glee, Cory's on- and off-camera girlfriend, Lea Michele, and Cory's past battles with drug addiction.
They then went outside for a heart-to-heart, with Joe giving his side of the divorce story. He was suddenly struck by how little he really knew about his son; for the first time, he saw Cory smoke cigarettes.
Joe told Cory that when his job in the military moved him to the other end of Canada, he could only visit his family every six months.
A Painful DivorceMcGregor didn't want to move the family near where he was posted, and two years later, she filed for divorce, he told his son. For the next 17 years, Joe claimed, his estranged wife kept him at a distance from Cory and his older brother, Shaun.
"One year, she even sent back the Christmas presents that I had sent to the boys," Joe Monteith says. (McGregor has not returned a call seeking comment.)
Joe quoted his son as saying, "Dad, I didn't know that."

Joe's current wife, Yvette Monteith, 64, who met Joe during the divorce proceedings, says she recalls the presents being returned in 1991. "Joe's mother's presents also were sent back, and the following year, (McGregor) said she didn't want us sending anything," Yvette recalls.
She added that, roughly seven years ago, Cory called a few times to talk with his dad, who was by that time retired from the military and driving a truck. She says Cory told her, "I just want to know if my father loves me." Yvette says that when she asked Cory a couple of years ago about the incident and whether he had been on drugs at the time, Cory said he couldn't recall the conversations.
By that time, Cory was 29 with some rough life experiences of his own – having gone "code blue" a decade earlier from a bad drug reaction, Monteith recalled.
"He got a shot to his heart to bring him back, and he was told at that time to use no drugs of any kind because you had your one shot," recalls Joe.

It tragically didn't work out that way.
"I lost my son," says Joe. "He should have known not to touch that drug again."
Monteith says he's nervous about watching the Glee tribute, and he hopes the show doesn't miss an important opportunity to drive home the dangers of hardcore drug use.
"I don't want to see any parent lose a child over heroin," Monteith says.

Just so you know not everyone in the south is a racist. I live in the south and always have, but have friends of every race. I'm also not ignorant or dumb in any way. Northerners can't blame us for a dumb president being elected because last time I checked the whole country votes for president, and I don't support him in any of his decisions. Everyone from the north just assumes they know what it is to be a southerner, obviously because you have met us all. I will not lie and say that there are not ignorant people in the south, but everyone up north is not a genesis. I'm not trying to be rude to any one who is from the north, even though some of you deserve it from your comments. I have friends who are from the north some that I even consider to be very close friends. I just didn't realize so many northerners were so judgmental. Don't make generalizations of people that you have never met. Stop worrying about peoples lives in the south, and take a look at your own. You can't hate us all just because you hate where we come from. I'm proud of where I come from. We love it in the south so stop hating.
By the way the majority of us can have an intelligent conversation. Just most times we prefer our southern slang. We do have country accents, but that is just part of our culture. Just so you know not everyone in the south enjoys country music like you all think. I actually prefer hip-hop and R&B. Most of us do have a lot of hospitality, but there are also many who don't.
Most southerners are very intelligent.
We are not all rednecks.

Someone originally from one of these states: South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, and a scarce few parts of Florida. You can not become a Southerner, you must be "Natural Born." Being a Southerner entails being appropriated to the best food, music, lifestyle, and attitudes in the world. There is nothing that can't be sorted out between two proper Southern gentlemen. "Southerner" is not to be associated with redneck or hillbilly, as these are terms for white trash and can be found anywhere in the country, not limited to the south. If you are in fact lucky enough to have a true Southerner as a friend, you will have at least one friend for the rest of your life. All Southerners are not "country," as it were, but country is for more accurate than "redneck" as country just means, from a rural area.
Being a proper Southerner myself, I find it inescapably vexing to be considered in the same league as a redneck.
od uživatele The_Grizz 02. březen 2009
In my opinion, the south is a nice place to live. I actually do have an education, I don't practice incest, I don't have an 'atrocious' accent, in fact none of my words sound at all like they have any accent to them at all (I know, this is amazing, as I'm a stupid southerner right?), I'm not prejudiced, and I'm not retarded as most would like to say I am. I do disregard most of the prejudiced comments made by northerners. I don't even say y'all. I mean, if you want to talk about people that are described by the examples I have just mentioned, call them rednecks. There is a difference between these two classes of people. Rednecks do have an atrocious accent and are sometimes prejudiced (not always). If you're going to put comments such as have been posted before about southerners, re-title them "redneck" "white trash" or something else. I know that most of the northerners call us stupid and generalize all of us into one group. That is just not the case. I'm sorry, it really isn't. You all call us prejudiced, yet look at your own comments. I'm tolerant of all races. I even have friends from New York who I constantly have to hear putting down the south. But I tolerate it, and I move on. Wow, aren't I such a southerner, what with my horrible grammar and lack of an education. I also don't think the south will rise again. I prefer our nation united, as there are good contributions from every part of the country. At least I'm not insulting northerners. ;]
Northerner: I'm going to post something on the internet about southerners! This will be completely based on opinion and backed up by absolutely no facts at all!
Southerner: Hmm, this description of southerners is definitely a bit misled.

Thursday, April 3, 2014
Three days in the books and Venus Williams is the lone American left standing in singles competition of the 2014 Family Circle Cup.
Just a day after escaping the opening round in three sets, No. 11 seeded Williams fended off Chanelle Scheepers of South Africa, 7-5, 7-5, Wednesday afternoon to earn her bid into the round of 16.
Scheepers jumped out to a 5-3 lead in the first set before Williams battled back to take the next four games for the win. Williams fell behind 40-0 in the 11th game and 30-0 in the 12th game but was able to rally back in both games off of Scheepers' mistakes.
Williams appeared drained between sets as she laid slouched deep into the bench under an umbrella. She's been battling sickness throughout the week and cited experience as key in overcoming some of the challenges on the court.
"I'm having a lot of ups and downs in the matches, a lot of errors are pulling together," Williams said. "The good part is that I'm having to fight out of these situations so it's making me tough."
Scheepers got off to another strong start in the second set and looked ready to force a tiebreaker with an early 4-2 lead. But Williams again charged back to tie the set at 4-4, and again at 5-5, before taking the next two games and the match as Scheepers sent the final shot sailing out of bounds.
"(Scheepers) was playing so well, but the good thing is when I get behind I give even more effort and get even more focused," Williams said. "I've been playing well from behind lately which is something you really have to do to win big matches."
Williams advances to face No. 6 seed Eugenie Bouchard of Canada Thursday afternoon in a matchup of the final two North Americans. After a first-round bye, Bouchard defeated Alla Kudryavtseva, 6-2, 6-0, Tuesday.
Americans become scarce
Outside of Williams, five Americans combined to win just two sets in five losses throughout Wednesday's singles matches.
No. 5 seed Sloane Stephens fell, 6-4, 6-4, to Ukraine's Elina Svitolina. No. 15 seed Madison Keys lost in three sets, 6-1, 6-7, 7-6, to Shuai Peng of China.
Lauren Davis was defeated by No. 2 seed Jelena Jankovic, 6-0, 6-3. Vania King lost, 7-5, 4-5, 6-3, to No. 4 seed Sabine Lisicki. Grace Min fell to Daniela Hantuchova, 6-2, 6-3.
The No. 5-seeded team of Raquel Kops-Jones and Abigail Spears is still alive in doubles competition and will face Jankovic and Andrea Petkovic Thursday night.

"As meteoric rises go, Occupy's (WIWP) ascent of the design community has been truly stellar".
Dom Hall
_Computer Arts
'Occupy' was founded in 2003 under the name WIWP, and has since cultivated its own place within the art/design scene, earning great acclaim from artists, collectors and the creative press. With 150+ commissions, 6 international exhibitions and 1 book under it's belt, it's focus and international appeal has never been stronger.
What started off as a humble badge design site has now evolved into a global platform, actively pushing artist collaboration through various publications and exhibitions, becoming a great source for original art, high quality limited edition prints and other related wares.
Working outside the traditional gallery format means that Occupy remains flexible as a concept, not confined to a dedicated gallery space or a favored roster of artists. This inherent freedom allows us to approach each brief individually and create continually fresh, challenging and ambitious projects for a global audience.
It's various endeavors have attracted the attention of the Design Council and it's various projects have been featured in numerous printed publications such as The Guardian, Elle, Tatler, Creative Review, Design Week, Computer Arts, IdN and Metro, as-well as online presences such as MTV Switched-on, Yahoo Picks, WGSN, Design Taxi and Candy Collective.
It's collaborators range from Photographers (Rankin, Thymann, Morten Laursen, Mi-Zo etc) to Artists (Mr Ian Wright, Anthony Burrill, David Foldvari, Insect etc), right through to accomplished Designers and Motion experts (Build, Trevor Jackson, Hillman Curtis, Rinzen etc).
Individually, this group of internationally acclaimed practitioners have worked with a wealth of prestigious clients including BBC, Adidas, Orange, Motorola, Nike, MTV, Cartoon Network, and Puma among many others.
Our ongoing focus is to continually commission and collaborate with some of the the worlds leading creatives; Hand picking both recognised and emerging talent to create exhibitions and products that transcend a definitive style or genre.
"Without a doubt Darren Firth has to be one of the busiest creatives on the this planet. 9-5 he's a Snr Designer, but by night, and just about any other moment he spends awake, he's up to all sorts of amazing projects under a myriad of other guises and pseudonyms. KeepsMeSane (freelance work), Wearitwithpride (his creative collaboration site), and BrandDead (his tee company) and Sambuki Social all suck his time, yet still he finds more time to collaborate and connect with many of the world's leading creatives through hugely innovative self-sparked projects".
Richard Seabrooke
_Extract from Candy Magazine (Issue 5)
"Darren Firth is the button badge master himself, as we secretly call him when nobody watches; simply because he and his badge project, Wearitwithpride were one of the first to generate a global new wave of popularity of the humble button badge in this very new century".

"Two Faced provides a brilliant insight of modern portraiture by today's most current image makers".
_Design Taxi (Commenting on Two Faced)
Occupy (was WIWP) has attracted the attention of the Design Council and its various projects have been featured in numerous printed publications such as The Guardian, Elle, Tatler, Creative Review, Design Week, Computer Arts, IdN and Metro as-well as online presences such as MTV Switched-on, Yahoo Picks, WGSN, Design Taxi and Candy Collective.
"If you haven't yet had a chance to peruse the wares of WIWP, this is the perfect time to acquaint yourself. They've made a name for themselves by taking the works of emerging artists and applying them to the badge format, resulting in some of the coolest wearables around".
Adam Barraclough
"As always, we're thankful for Wear It With Pride for their continued support of pervasive artwork, their tireless efforts to promote quality art and design, and their unique DIY approach to business. Their success is an inspiration, and they've never let it go to their heads. I raise my glass to them. (Actually, it's a slightly warm 40 oz, but it's the thought that counts.)"
Adam Barraclough
"As meteoric rises go, Wear It With Pride's (WIWP) ascent of the design community has been truly stellar. Since its launch in September 2003, the BBC, adidas, Orange, Motorola, Nike, MTV, Puma and, of course, Computer Arts, have all benefited from the talents of WIWP's members. And with the likes of Scarygirl, Jeremyville and Uglydolls, and set-ups such as Insect, Build, Ded Ass Associates among its contributors, WIWP certainly has creative firepower".
Dom Hall
_Computer Arts
"Long gone are the old days of oil painted portraits on canvas and easel, this art form has envolved into a celebration of modern day portraiture in the 21st century. Two Faced provided a brilliant insight of modern portraiture by today's most current image makers".
_Design Taxi
"The overwhelmingly ambitious and ever more engrossing WIWP masterclass in organisation "Two Faced" hit Computer Arts this month with a bang. A much deserved praise is showered upon WIWP and core organiser Darren Firth with exclusive previews of some of the portraits that have resulted from the project".
_The Little Chimp Society
"For Darren to have pulled off this project is a massive achievement in itself, but to have done it with such style and finesse only goes to show just how good people should be - an inspiration".

The 10 Most Unintentionally Hilarious Toys Exported by China
America is the land of opportunity, and for many immigrants, that means starting a business. In my neighborhood of San Francisco's Mission District, that business is always Maze Filled With Garbage. You see them every 10 feet -- tiny stores offering an unlikely combination of "gift," "fashion," "fish" and "trade." Sun-bleached Doro the Exploda luggage spills from them onto the sidewalk, and inside are narrow corridors filled with one-size-fits-all wedding dresses, bras for women who never plan on taking their shirt off and "I Heart San Francisco" snow globes from back when it was called Pangaea. No product in the store is ever more than 6 inches from a tube of underwear or a dusty neon Jesus clock, but if you've had all your shots and you're thin enough to navigate them, visit one and head to the toy section. Their toys are amazing, and if you're in the market for joy and magic, every single one of these is on the shelves now:
There are a number of ELEGANT FEATURES to this children's favourite. Let's take a look at each of them.
1 The moving bus makes the baby wonder the reason of moving.
While I admire their effort to trick babies, why would a baby wonder why an elephant is driving a bus? Yeah, it's weird to you and me, but it's quite possibly the most ordinary thing a baby sees in a day. Babies have no idea that the reason for AMVSING TRUCK can only be explained with the devil. Or maybe they do, and that's why they scream.
2 The interesting battery operated bump'n go action makes the baby drive well.
Hold on a second. Are you telling me that watching a maniac elephant smash into things is actually how Chinese people teach their babies to drive!? Because last week in a parking lot, they told me I was racist when I screamed that exact thing at them.
3 The pretty music arouse baby to learn music.
Forgive me if I'm skeptical of child psychology research done by a sweatshop's copy writer, but I don't think there's a link between musical aptitude and an elephant monster playing "Camptown Races" with a car horn. If this said "Pretty music cause baby work harder and meat more tender," then OK, you're the expert.
1 [again] The shining Flashing light can arouse the seeing baby's interests.
I think I'm starting to get it. If you shine a flashlight into a baby's face for 20 minutes a day, it will be a certified technician by the time it turns 4! But wait, if setting a baby near beeps and lights turns him into a genius, then why are there so many stupid babies? And how did the last generation of understimulated idiot babies grow up to invent something as brilliant as AMVSING TRUCK? Time travel? It's time travel, isn't it?
2 [again] The pretty music can arouse the baby's hearing interests.
I don't know why they added this bullet point a second time in a second set of bullet points. I guess they really want to make it clear how much this is about to arouse your baby. Have the hose ready.
Favolable Letarded Grammar:
From a linguistic point of view, this line isn't the box's most violent assault on our language. In fact, after putting in some batteries and watching AMVSING TRUCK sit in one place and have a noisy plastic seizure, I'd say "The head of motorcycle will swing when the hand shaking!" is the most elegant way to describe it. The reason I like the line is because it tells us that at least one person knew this shitty thing wasn't a TRUCK. To suddenly refer to it as a motorcycle is like a broken English wink from the smartest guy at the IDEAL PARADISE OF THE FRIENDS! Toy Factory & Organ Supply.
BEAT-MAGNUM TRUE HERO is a huge rollerskating robot that comes with one accessory-- a 7-inch shield. Here's what's strange, though: There are five choking hazard warnings on the box. Five. Who could ... wait, did China read about our obesity rate and decide our children had snakes for faces? Listen, parents, if there is someone or something in your house capable of swallowing any part of BEAT-MAGNUM TRUE HERO, focus your attention on it-- that is almost certainly the future cause of death for your child.
This fashivably coloured robot has seven unique actions, and I know you're dying to hear them, but first I want you to brace yourself. They're kind of weird.
It might sound a beautiful music. It might not. Look, they didn't exactly hire China's top robotics team for this project, so if some beautiful music sounds, have a good time. $7.99 buys you honesty, not craftsmanship.
No one said this was a children's toy. BEAT-MAGNUM TRUE HERO is a sexual being, and it will stop to luff.
The luffing will continue long into Stage 3.
I think it's saying that if you want to luff, too, it's not programmed to mind that one bit.
|Stage 5: BEAT-MAGNUM TRUE HERO insists. GO AHEAD.
Stage 6: BEAT-MAGNUM TRUE HERO seriously cannot believe you're entering into a battle of wills with a masturbating robot. Are you waiting for it to change its mind? To simply ignore its prime directive? GO. AHEAD.
Stage 7: install 3 AA batteries. Oh wow, you mean BEAT-MAGNUM TRUE HERO did all that before I put in the batteries!? Holy shit!
Favolable Letarded Grammar:
I think "The Truth Eho The Eyes Met Before" loosely translates to "The Hand I Know How For Type With Is Luffing."
#8. BiBi
In the baby world, a demonic face is the polite way to let everyone know that you've been replaced with a changeling. Look at this monstrosity: This doll was designed as a dream home for a murderer's ghost. BiBi looks like something that would emerge shrieking from a Dumpster of used rape kits.
Favolable Letarded Grammar:
I think BiBi's body also will shaking when the scarabs inside it start their mating ritual.
Stores that sell toys like this don't make any sense. As many times as I've been inside one, I've never seen a second customer. The restaurants next door to them change owners every six months, and I refuse to believe that the people who decided to exclusively stock XXXL beige panties have some secret genius business plan. Are they drug dealers? People smugglers? That would explain why every doll's box looks like a teen sex slave has slept in it for weeks, then ripped his or her way out of it, but let me tell you a true story. When I was looking at SUPER POWER POLICECAR, the store owner literally said into her phone, "Idiot buy dees stuff." I'm not making that up for the purposes of this article. She said that right in front of me as if she didn't notice her only customer, the 6'3" man with a red mohawk laughing as he took a picture of the panties.
I was determined to prove her wrong, so I held this toy up and said, "One SUPER POWER POLICECAR, please." Then I nodded for a second and growled, "THE WHOLE WORLD IS MATCHLESS." Strangely, the woman who thought up the idea of opening Mission Street's 73rd indoor junkyard had no idea that everything I was saying was awesome. She charged me $8.99 for a driverless plastic car-like shape that inches slowly forward until it hits something. Oh, damn it. Now that I think about it, that condescending bitch might have been right.
Favolable Letarded Grammar:
Hell yes it is.
The box warned me that my BATHING BABY's specifications are, and I quote, "SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE." This made me wonder what incredible toys China is keeping to itself that could give notice before they changed. What would they say? "AIEEEEE!!! MY FLESH! CONSUMER, BE WARNED, MY INFANT FLESH IS TAKING THE FORM OF A GIANT SLOR!!!"
I figured the warning was a misprint, since China has been wrong or lying with literally every syllable they've ever printed on one of their toys. So I opened the box expecting a blonde plastic baby partially devoured by Dongguan wig mites and instead saw the last thing a new white father is prepared for:
Sorry, black baby. I already named you Dongguan Wig Mites before I found out you were bald. And now I'm about to put you in something that costs 12 cents to manufacture, mixes running water and electricity and includes only this for instructions:
You are going to die.

BLOOMSBURG - Imagine a classroom where there is thick mud seeping into your shoes and the smell of mildew in the air. You are handed some boots and gloves.
Class has begun.
Senior students at Juniata Mennonite School have applied concepts learned in their Bible class as they journeyed to flood-ridden Columbia County last week.
Ted Kostich, Pastor of Thompsontown Baptist Church and Bible teacher at JMS took 12 of the 13 senior class members to Hazleton and Bloomsburg areas hit heavily by the flood waters of Hurricanes Irene and Lee.
Kostich's church is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Relief effort, which is part of the North American Mission Board. The church has its own disaster relief trailer that is used for recovery operations.
Kostich had been explaining to his Bible class the importance of servant evangelism. The volunteer effort in Columbia County was a "great opportunity" for students to get the first-hand account of this type of evangelism, he said.
Kostich and his wife Karen, along with 12 JMS seniors and members of Thompsontown Baptist Church left at 7 a.m. Wednesday, Sept. 14.
Feeding units were set up in the flood-stricken areas. The Southern Baptist feeding unit alone fed close to 8,000 people, Kostich said.
Students worked in shifts over the two day period. Four students would work in the feeding units by helping prepare meals. The American Red Cross delivered the meals and worked alongside the Baptist relief workers.
Students were busy opening cans of food, stirring stew and keeping inventory of food items at the Hazelton location.
Meanwhile another team of JMS students were working with volunteers in Bloomsburg as part of the "mud-out" crew.
Soggy property items, grime, hip boots layered with mud and tons of interesting smells awaited the crew.
The mud-out crew worked at three houses in two days. The first was the home of an elderly woman, the second the home of a cancer patient and the third was the home of a relative of the cancer patient. All three houses were part of a row of homes devastated by water. Two of the homes had water "up to the rafters" of the bottom floor, Kostich said.
"A 'mud-out' is not just about cleaning up mud," senior Tesla Ritter pointed out. "You could punch a wall and it would fall apart."
Standing in the homes destroyed by water damage brought things into perspective for Logan VanHorn. "A couple weeks ago we had that flash flooding here and we had four inches of water in our basement. I was so frustrated. Then I go these houses and they have like three feet. We need to realize to be thankful for what we have."
Each of the students was able to work in both locations. The young men slept overnight in a warehouse while the young ladies spent the night in a local church.
Girls had the opportunity to work in the mud and the boys had the chance to work in the kitchen.
Hannah Felker quickly admitted she does not like to be covered in dirt, but she knew that stepping out of her comfort zone was a step she needed to take.
This senior class trip was a work of service, the students shared. It wasn't a class vacation.
"I was impressed with my classmates' work ethic," noted Matt Von Fricken. "Everyone put their issues aside and worked hard."
"We did this to serve Christ, not to get out of school," Mary Beth Barner added.
The highlight of the trip for the students had nothing to do with clean-up or food preparation. Kostich and his wife Karen as well as some of the students had the opportunity to explain salvation through Jesus Christ to one of the homeowners.
Before the crew was ready to head back to Juniata County, Karen had the opportunity to pray with the woman as she accepted Jesus Christ as her Savior.
Kostich reminded the students that every effort they made during those two days was an act of service. Many of the students noted they felt more connection to people and more compassion as they worked at the mud-out locations. The Bible teacher and pastor reminded them that while they are opening cans of vegetables they can pray for the people who will eat that food.
"Before those meals go out there are people who pray over the meals," Kostich pointed out.
"We're really trying to teach the kids the importance of random acts of kindness," Kostich noted, referring to the homeowner who prayed with Karen. "She could not get over the fact that these students and Baptists came from the Harrisburg area all the way to Bloomsburg to help her."
Kostich took the eleventh grade JMS students back to the same area on Thursday as the work opportunities continue to be present even more than a week after the flood.
"There are still 3,600 people in shelters who have no house to go back to," he added.
JMS senior Scotty Meiser said he was fully expecting a mess of mud and debris before he arrived on scene.
"This really exceeded my expectations," he added. He recalled walking into a warehouse at 5:30 a.m. Everyone, he said was wearing a "bright yellow Southern Baptist T-shirt." He then looked down at his own red JMS basketball T-shirt and knew at that moment despite the clothing difference, age difference and other differences, everyone was learning the same classroom lesson.
They learned first-hand how to serve.

Great bag even after the diaper stage!! Review by Dawn
Value Quality Price
This has got to be one of my favorite diaper bags, and I love it so much I'll be keeping it long after the diaper stage.Would you recommend this product to a friend? Without hesitation!
I love that it can be carried messenger style or backpack style if you need both hands free. It's machine washable which is great, it keeps it looking nice and new even with the daily use it gets. It also has awesome built in organization so that you know where everything is without having to dig for it. I highly recommend this bag! (Posted on 11/6/13)
Ju Ju Be BFF Review Review by Terri
Value Quality Price
I have owned many Ju Ju Be bags and products, my fave is the BFF. I find it the perfect size for an "over packer" of one such as myself. These bags have tons of space,lots of organizational pockets, and the messenger/back pack straps offer multiple "easy carry" options. The thing I love the most? Fully machine washable product which comes in handy when tackling life's big messes with your little one :) (Posted on 11/6/13)

The 4 Most Weirdly Obnoxious Celebrity Fanbases
#2. Quentin Tarantino
There's no denying Quentin Tarantino's talent or success. It doesn't matter how incapable he is of tying a tie or not making all of us uncomfortable with the words that come out of his face when he speaks. He is an important and successful filmmaker.
Jason Merritt/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
There is the "windsor," the "half windsor," and the "four in hand," and then there is the "screw your tie, I'm badass."
At a very boring time in American cinema, Tarantino exploded, pushing the boundaries of what a film could do. His film style can be summed up best by Bruce Willis' choice of weapon in Pulp Fiction. Why take a hammer when you can take a bat? Why take a bat when you can take a samurai sword! But even though he comes off this way in every interview, Tarantino can't be all tits and explosions. If he were, he never could have crafted the opening scene to Inglourious Basterds. No, not the Jew Bear shit. He could have written that in his sleep, or at least while doing giggly bong hits with Eli Roth. I'm talking about the Nazi, Hans Landa, politely interrogating the good-hearted French farmer who's hiding a Jewish family. This scene contains so much about the nature of evil, the difficulty of following a righteous path, and the vulnerability of compassion. That one scene is hands down the most masterful piece of Holocaust-inspired art in Western civilization, and it's from the same guy who wrote the immortal response to Steve Buscemi's question, "Why am I Mr. Pink?"
But Whatever Nice Things You Have to Say About Quentin Tarantino, It's OK to Dismiss Most of His Fans Because ...
"Fucking A! Did you see that fucking shit where the dude fucked that guy's shit up and shit!? Holy shit, like the one dude is all BAM and then she's like, yeah, I don't think so POW!" Oh sorry, that was just an outtake from any conversation with anyone who calls himself a Quentin Tarantino fanatic. I guess all I'm saying is that often his biggest, most vocal fans are the first ones to sell him short, to talk about him like some one-trick pony who is great simply because of his level of ballsy badassery.
To Tarantino's Worst Fans, I Say ...
Yes, he sure is awesome and ballsy. He has some other talents, too. Check it out, or, y'know, just please stop talking to me.
#1. Rachel Maddow
Rachel Maddow is a liberal-leaning talking head for MSNBC. Being somewhat liberal-minded on social and constitutional issues myself, I'd have to say that I probably agree with 85 percent of the rhetoric that comes out of Maddow's mouth. Having said that, I cannot stand hearing Rachel Maddow speak. She is a living cartoon of how Republicans like to portray Democrats.
When the right denigrates the left and tries to explain to middle America why Democrats can't be trusted, they paint us as a bunch of arrogant East Coast homosexuals completely out of touch with everyday Americans. Basically, their caricatures of Democrats look a lot like this:
Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty
"Hi, let me take your guns and give your children free access to porn!"
Yes, only homophobes and morons would take issue with a pundit's sexual orientation. That's not the issue at all. (At all. I'm serious. At all. Shut up.) But everyone can be rightly put off by Maddow's habit of punctuating her elitist, sanctimonious, long-winded rants with smug eye-rolling and crooked smiles.
In a world of extreme right-wing talking heads, we probably need Maddows, and although everything about her style is maddening, I'm at least glad there's a counterbalance to the extreme right's chicanery. She is the mirror image of human garbage neo-conservative Ann Coulter. Unfortunately, changing the message of extremist punditry garbage doesn't get rid of the smell.
But Whatever Nice Things You Have to Say About Rachel Maddow, It's OK to Dismiss Most of Her Fans Because ...
They don't sweat the details, and they are all about the fight. Democrats loved to go on and on about what an intellectual lightweight George W. Bush was and how so much of his support was from a bunch of born-again nimrods who cared more about electing the man who looked most like a cowboy. We did that because it was completely true. Having said that, you would have to be foolish to believe that there aren't an equally clueless bunch of voters in the Democratic Party supporting Barack Obama for all the wrong reasons. Both parties are irreparably tainted. In 2013, neither side has the right to claim the intellectual or moral high ground.
People who routinely claim higher moral or intellectual ground strictly among party lines are either liars or fools. So I might agree with a lot of the positions of Maddow and her fans, but their desire to trade extreme left hooks in return for massive right undercuts keeps them in a constant state of battle.
To Maddow's Worst Fans, I Say ...
Yes, Maddow's a wise woman fighting the good fight against partisan hacks on the other side. But as you cheer and champion her takedowns of silly Republican boobs, maybe go somewhere besides MSNBC to places that take a more critical eye of civil rights abuses, not just to gays and women, but to all Americans. Things like our current administration's stance on NDAA and drone strikes that go to the heart of everyone's civil liberties. A stance that most of the Democratic and Republican parties seem in harmony about.
The right screws the left. The left rolls its eyes and shakes its head at the screwing it's getting while castigating the right mightily. And The Man, who is not Democrat or Republican, straight or gay, male or female, atheist or believer, is content at the bickering that keeps everyone busy and blind.

Wow! I'm really The Bachelor. It still doesn't feel real.
It seems like just yesterday I was chasing Emily Maynard down the streets of Prague and wondering how she stole my heart when so many people in my past have tried and failed. But it wasn't yesterday – and now enough time has passed to allow my heart to mend and give me perspective and understanding as to why Emily made the best decision for both of us.
The question I'm most often asked is, "Why do you need to be on The Bachelor?" It's a fair question and I'd probably ask the same thing to someone else in my position.
The truth is, I probably don't need to be on The Bachelor to meet someone new, as there are plenty of single, nice, attractive women right here in Dallas. But I'm a firm believer that God works in mysterious and often crazy ways and he sometimes opens doors that need to be walked through.
I never anticipated falling in love with Emily on The Bachelorette. Like many cynics, I thought the whole thing was contrived and manufactured. I never thought I'd develop real feelings under those circumstances. I only agreed to be on The Bachelorette for the travel and the experience.
Well, as you all witnessed, my cynicism quickly evaporated and I fell in love with Emily and was convinced I'd spend the rest of my life loving her and her daughter.
Of course, that didn't happen. After the heartbreak of losing Emily, I was able to really reflect on the entire journey. I came to realize two very important things: My feelings for Emily were real, but she is not the one for me.
So here I am today, The Bachelor. I believe I can find love a second time through this experience and I'm hopeful it will be a lasting love. I hope you enjoy taking this incredible journey with me and I'm excited to hear your thoughts along the way.
– Sean

Roswell Park Cancer Institute (RPCI) will provide preclinical research infrastructure and services designed to accelerate into clinical phases the development of Jasco Pharmaceuticals' lead investigational agent, the PIM inhibitor JP_11646 designed to fight solid tumors and blood cancers.
In a first-of-its-kind collaboration for the small molecule cancer drug developer and the institute, Jasco and RPCI will join to pursue further preclinical development of the agent, including pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) analysis to define its efficacy, its toxicity, and how cells respond to it. The project is the first to take advantage of RPCI's Center for Drug Development, a new program that joins previously separate operations of the institute.
JP_11646 targets a class of kinase enzymes that help regulate cancer cell survival. In preclinical studies, Jasco's lead agent has shown promising activity against multiple myeloma as well as solid tumors that include breast, colon, liver, lung, and pancreas cancers.
JP_11646 is among Jasco's PIM kinases, serine/threonine protein kinases with a structurally unique ATP binding pocket incorporated in all three isoforms, Pim-1, Pim-2, and Pim-3. The Pims are key components of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway and regulate cancer cell survival, providing key therapeutic targets for blood disorders as well as the solid tumors. Jasco's pipeline includes molecules that selectively inhibit each PIM isoform, as well as all three isoforms simultaneously.
As part of the collaboration, Kelvin Lee, M.D., Jacobs Family chair in immunology and co-leader of RPCI's tumor immunology and immunotherapy program, will lead a study into the role PIM kinases play in CD28 signaling pathways, a major cause of resistance to frontline multiple myeloma treatments.
"Our goal is to get the therapy to cancer patients through a Phase I clinical study within one year," Alex Adjei, M.D., Ph.D., FACP, svp for clinical research and director of RPCI's Center for Drug Development, said in a statement.
"It's an ambitious but totally realistic goal given the resources for preclinical and clinical research that exist at RPCI and the tremendous progress Jasco has made on this agent so far," added Dr. Adjei, who is also the American Society of Clinical Oncology's inaugural Conquer Cancer Foundation Drug Development Professor.

"I'm outdoorsy," she says. "I love to exercise and be outside. I don't care what I'm wearing, and I don't care if I'm uncomfortable. I am nothing like Blair."
Whelchel, 49, has proved this to fans of Survivor: Philippines, in which she has demonstrated hard work around camp, a surprising proficiency for puzzle challenges, plus all the backstabbing and social skills necessarily to go deep into the game. (She made the final six without a single vote cast against her.)
But then, when asked about the breakup of her 24-year marriage to Steve Cauble, Whelchel gets quiet. "Of course I still believe in marriage," she says. "I never thought divorce would happen to me. But Steve is still my best friend. We just couldn't be married."
Although they wouldn't go into detail about the reasons behind the split, Whelchel and Cauble tell PEOPLE about their lives now.
"We still see each other every day; we go out to dinner and movies. At one point [our daughter] Clancy said, 'Mom, I think you're going to have to let me know when you get divorced, because I won't be able to tell when it happens.' "
Adds Cauble: "We spend normal family times together – holidays, birthdays, and of course, watching Survivor."
"I personally have much more understanding and empathy now," says Whelchel. "You don't know what people are facing in their lives, so it's important to love and not judge them. That's the whole Christian message: that we fail and forgiveness can happen. It's a sad commentary of many Christians that we shoot our wounded. So I've learned how important it is to be more encouraging and understanding, no matter what people are going through."
Playing SurvivorWith her marriage ending and her children reaching adulthood (she and Cauble have a son, Tucker, 22, and two daughters, Haven, 21 and Clancy, 20), Whelchel decided to compete on her favorite TV show.
"I wanted a challenge," she says of signing up for Survivor. "I had dreamed about being on the show for years. And I really wanted to do the Survivor challenges."
Monty Brinton / CBS
"I wasn't worried about going into Survivor, because in my head it all made sense," she says. "I thought, 'This is a game. I love games. I'm competitive. I'll play it strategically.' But then I got there. When you're playing with real people, your heart is in it, not just your head. I don't want to be a liar; I don't want to hurt people's feelings. It hurts me to talk badly about people. So every day, I had to think very carefully about how I played. Did I make mistakes? Sure. But that's life. You make mistakes sometimes."
Her Family – and FutureWhen Survivor ends, Whelchel is ready for new opportunities. (She is moving to Los Angeles after the holidays, and will start considering acting roles.) She says she keeps in touch with the other Facts of Life cast members, especially Nancy McKeon. "She'll be a lifelong friend," says the actress.
For their part, Whelchel's kids tell PEOPLE that their mom will succeed, no matter how what she chooses to do. "She has what it takes," says daughter Haven, who got married this fall. "She's the strongest woman I know." Adds Tucker, a singer in the Dallas-area band Dovetail, "When Mom gets something in her mind to do, she does it. I'm very proud of her."
And youngest daughter Clancy – who looks very much like Whelchel did in the '80s – has designs to follow in her mother's footsteps as an actress. "I'd love to be on a show with my mom," she says. "She's not really the type of mom who embarrasses us. She's really cool."
As for how Whelchel does on Survivor, she remains tight-lipped. "All I'll say is that it was a wonderful experience," she says with a smile. "But you'll have to keep watching to see if I win."

David is a true conservative. During the past five years he has been a leader in promoting accountability in government, and will work for limited government, limited taxation, and economic freedom. He will stick to these ideals, and not bend under pressures that would compromise our freedoms.

Virgin Australia operates flights to Vanuatu's capital, Port Vila, direct from Brisbane.
Port Vila Airport Information
Port Vila International Airport is located approximately 6km from Port Vila's CBD. It can be accessed by various transport options, including:
- Car Hire: Receive mates' rates when you choose from a great choice of hire cars from our car partners.
- Taxi: Taxis are located outside the airport terminal
Things to do in Port Vila
Hibiscus flowers, swaying palm trees, crystal clear blue waters and smiling locals have seen Vanuatu labelled "the happiest place on earth". Famous for its relaxed vibe and clear blue waters, the South Pacific archipelago boasts 83 islands; all of which offer a great variety of things to see and do. Located on the main island of Efate, Vanuatu's capital Port Vila is rich in culture, tradition and lifestyle, and enjoys stunning views of Vila Bay. An island paradise, just over two hours from Australia's mainland, Port Vila is a spectacular holiday destination.
French-influenced Port Vila has a lively town centre and acts as a great base from which to explore the archipelago's deserted beaches, quiet lagoons, black volcanic sand and water falls. Day trip to Hideaway Island Resort and Marine Sanctuary and snorkel the private atoll's colourful coral reef.

Hello Folks..
I will write here what to do to run the "stereo mix" on a laptop-equipped with a sound card Conexant.
I ran this function on my laptop Satelilite P500
to run this function you need drivers nr. 188.8.131.52
These drivers can be downloaded from Lenovo's Web site,
These are the drivers from Lenovo G555 Model IN2AUD25WW5.exe
unpack the file IN2AUD25WW5.exe using winrar or 7zip
next step is to find in the file "W7-64" or"W7-32" file "NELCC2wa.inf"
open the file "NELCC2wa.inf" using "notepad" and add ENTRY under Conexant.NTamd64.6.0]--->>vista
or Conexant.NTamd64.6.1]--->>7
%HdAudioFunctionDriver.Pebble5071.DeviceDesc% = HdAudModelNELA0V,HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5067
this entry its Hardware id. can be traced in the Device Manager
after the entry, save and close the file "NELCC2wa.inf"
next step is update the driver by Device Manager
in the Device Manager find the entry "Conexant"
right-click and select "update driver"
then you select "instal from a list or specific location" or Let me pick from a disk
and then point the location where you saved unpacked and moded file "NELCC2wa.inf"
after this computer start update the driver
if everything will be good, after installation you should find the "stereo mix" in the settings sounds
ps. This also works with XP 32 and 64 bit using driver 126.96.36.199 from Lenovo
You sir, have all my respect.

I can not thank you enough!!! This worked great for my system (non Toshiba brand computer)
I had to tweak your instructions a little, so I would like to add more detail for clarification for anyone who wishes to attempt this "fix".
As instructed - follow that link to Lenovo's support page and download the file.
It's an executable file, so DO NOT click it to activate it. (I did that accidentally). It will give you an error and shut down the install. Instead, do as directed and open the file in WinZip - I wasn't sure how to do this, so I just opened WinZip and dragged the IN2AUD25WW5.exe file from Lenovo INTO the opened WinZip window.
I DID NOT see any folders such as the W7-64 or W7-32 inside. These folders DO exist in the drivers folder on my system, however, but I did not see them inside the exe file opened in WinZip. The inf file, however, WAS in there. I pulled the "NELCCwa.inf" file from the WinZip window to my desktop, opened it with notepad, found the line "Conexant.NTamd64.6.1" for Windows 7, added the entry (as the last line in that group) as instructed, and saved the file.
I put this edited file inside my drivers folder on my system (inside there was a Conexant folder, I stuck it in there). If you have another file with this name already in there, put a copy of THAT file in another location for safe keeping in case things don't work out and you need to restore the original file.
I did actually have a copy of this file in my Conexant drivers folder, but I suspect it was installed when I accidentally clicked the exe file from Lenovo's site and the install failed. Hence....DON'T DO THAT!! LOL
After I put the edited inf file in the Conexant drivers folder, I went to Device Manager and told it that I wanted to update the driver for Conexant with my own file/disc, pointing it to the modified "NELCCwa.inf" file.
Sure enough, when I went into "sound" in Control Panel I FINALLY had STEREO MIX under the record tab available. FINALLY!
Nero and Goldwave did not see it yet, however. I did a system reboot, now they do.
Again, I can't thank you enough for the link and the very important info on editing the inf file. I bought this ASUS system as a multimedia system and was so disappointed to have this problem with the sound card. NOT A PROBLEM ANY MORE thanks to you! I could kiss you a million times!!
I just bought a Toshiba Satellite L755-S5216 laptop. I followed the original instructions to the letter. When I went into Device Manager and tried to update the driver using that new edited file, it told me I already had the most updated version of the driver. I did a system restart anyway, checked my Recording tab, and saw no Stereo Mix option.
I use this audio input to record records and cassettes onto my computer, and this laptop is no good if I can't record in stereo. My previous laptop, a Dell Inspiron, was about 4 years old and running really slow, yet it could record in stereo. I really don't want to have to go back to my old laptop just so I can record. That defeats the purpose of buying a new laptop.
So if anyone can offer any further advice that would be great. Thanks!
(additional ranting: Why would any manufacturer want to allow a mono-recording capability with everything being in "high def" and "5.1 surround" now? Makes no sense.)

Awesome post!!! Helped me out a lot
Hi Your suggested solution to enabling stereo mix on Conexant sound card is something I have been looking for, however, I couldn't get your instructions to work. I have attached the inf file on my driver disk. I would be very grated
ful if you could suggest how I should amend it.
Hi, i have the same problem with my satellite L635 S3104 but did'nt work your post please help me
Worked like a charm! Thank you so much!
Really need someones help.
I have a L755-s5244 and I follwed direction but didnt work. Windows 7 gave me errors about the driver.
Can someone post the exact instructions for this laptop.
I think this is the last time I purchase a Toshiba. always have problems with drivers.
If I can not get this working, I will return to staples and order a HP or Dell theat works
Excellent driver does not know how I helped!
for my Acer 5250 Thanks! from Mexico
hi my download keeps breaking halfway. can someone upload the inf file please thx
dude, i love you for this solution, what i needed to do was open it in WinRAR, unpack the W7-64 folder, then add the registry value you gave on the top, just under where you said, then i had to go into device manager and find conexant, then i had to ''update driver'' then, ''browse my computer'' THEN AND MOST IMPORTANT DONT search for the driver at the top, instead, ''pick from a list of drivers on my computer'' then go to ''have disk'' then seach for the modded FOLDER not just the FILE, so the WHOLE W7-64 folder and then update driver,
it comes up with lots of warnings that it will damage ur comp and that it is an unknown software, and that your sound will no longer work after installing but this is ALL untrue i assure you..
this should help people with the ''you already have the lastest version'' message if you follow what i say exactly!!!!
w/e ur driver version at the time will not matter, it will update to ''184.108.40.206'' whether ur on the latest versions, or older versions, or even lets say ''126.96.36.199'' or one of the new ''4.8'' versions
stereo mix will be there without restarting but please restart before using anything. it is important.
hope this helps anyone still having probems, this has worked with all Conexant HD sound cards ive tried, regardless of make of computer/laptop. but make sure you have the correct version. 32 or 64 folder depending on your windows bit version. the file to change on the 32 bit folder is called ''NECC2xa'' and not ''NELCC2wa'' like the 64 bit version.
hope this helps with an array of problems if you read it carefully. sorry i wrote this really quickly but ive coverd all problems...
kudos to the person who started this thread, i would not have been able to do it without him, because i didnt know the driver version and missing registry key for it to work
Ive recently been in contact with ASUS and Conexant so that they can make this solution public and help people achive this... the reason i contacted ASUS, is because they were awating a reply from me from months ago for a solution of their customers as even they had no solution, as checking each file and registry value with each version seems to be a timesome thing.. (ik timesome is not a word get over it) any problems, message me ill talk you though it.

Hello Folks,
i think i solved the problem finally without installing a new driver !!!
First you have to locate the audio driver .inf file on your computer. In my case it is AcrPebwa.inf located in the directory "W7-64". In my case the .inf file is branded, my computer is an acer notebook. The original name of the file is chdrt.inf. In the case of olo320i it is NELCC2wa.inf for example.
If you can't find the file, use the Win7 in file search and search for the string "EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,Enable" (without quotation marks) and you will find the correct file.
Second you have to edit this file. You have to search for ALL entries like in this block:
As you can see, there is an semicolon at the beginning in each line. You have to delete all the semicolons in the complete block.
The block could be similar, but the first line is exactly like this. For each audio card version there are many entries like this in the file. You have to edit all blocks, if you are not sure, which audio card version is yours.
Third you have to save the file and re-install the driver. I have the german version of Win7, so i don't know exactly the exact description of the following buttons. So they can be similar to my description: Open the device manager. Open "Audio Video Game Controller". Right click on "Conexant High definition audio". Click on "Update driver software". Click on "Local / manual search on computer". Click on "Choose driver from a list" or "instal from a list or specific location". Click on "Data medium..." or "Disk drive..." or similar. Now choose the edited file and confirm all requests with yes / ok or similar. After installing, you have to restart your computer. NOW YOU HAVE "Stereomix". HALLELUJA!!! :-)
If it works on your computer, please post it
First of all thank you for you post. I was going crazy trying to find the file NELCC2wa.inf However after your post, looking at the COnexant folder in Program Files,made me realise that it uses oem7.inf file instead of NelCC2wa.inf file.
I was relived to find it and be able to modify it as you have mentioned. However, going back to driver manager to update Conexant (I have browsed my computer to point it to for eg. C:\PROGRAM FILES\CONEXANT\CNXT_AUDIO_HDA location ). The only problem is that it doesn't update itself and keeps coming up with a : THE BEST DRIVER SOFTWARE FOR YOUR DRIVER IS ALREADY INSTALLED:
I'm bit frustrated. Can you please help..
1. You have to open the device manager.
2. Now open "Audio Video Game Controller" and right click on "Conexant High definition audio".
3. Select the first choice: "Update driver software" (or similar in english version).
4. Select the second choice: "Local / manual search on computer" (or similar in english version).
5. Then select again the second choice: "Choose driver from a list" or "install from a list or specific location" (or similar in english version)
6. Now select "From Disk..." or similar (Button in the lower right corner)
7. Now choose the edited file and confirm all requests with yes / ok or similar.
8. Hopefully you can understand my english description ;-)
9. Good luck!
In the german Win7 Version is it as following:
1. Open the "Gerätemanager".
2. Select "Audio-, Video-, und Gamecontroller" and right click on "Conexant High definition audio".
3. Select the first choice: "Treibersoftware aktualisieren..."
4. Select the second choice: "Auf dem Computer nach Treibersoftware suchen"
5. Then select again the second choice: "Aus einer Liste von Gerätetreibern auf dem Computer auswählen"
6. Now select "Datenträger..." (Button in the lower right corner)
7. Now choose the edited file and confirm all requests with yes / ok or similar.
05-01-2012 04:04 AM - edited 05-01-2012 04:25 AM
Look to this pictures how to install the driver manually and
how the .inf file looks like and how to get your audio card version:

, updated January 30, 2013 at 7:17 AM
A tentative plan by West Seneca School District officials to close East Elementary School and reconfigure East Middle School to accommodate students in grades five through eight met with vehement opposition from parents at a Tuesday night meeting.
About 300 people gathered in West Middle School to hear about the plan, which Superintendent Mark J. Crawford told those assembled was motivated by economics.
"We, like many other districts in Western New York and even across New York State, are facing all kinds of external pressures to change," Crawford said.
He described the proposed reconfiguration as "one of the first exercises in transition that we will face over the next several years." He noted that in the mid-1970s, the district had an enrollment of about 15,500 students. It has since dwindled to about 6,800.
Over 40 years, the district also has cut 120 staff and faculty positions. That, combined with 132 employees who took advantage of an early retirement incentive offered last school year, has resulted in the loss of more than 20 percent of the district workforce, Crawford said. In addition, he said, the district has been losing state aid.
"Over the last five years, we've lost more than $30 million in anticipated revenue. … With all of these changes occurring, we realize that we can't stay the same," the superintendent said.
His explanations did little to mollify parents.
Many, including Katy LaPorta –whose daughter attends fourth grade at East Elementary – questioned how the district could consider closing its academically top-ranked elementary school in order to place fifth-graders in an environment for which they may not be emotionally ready.
"East Elementary was one of five elementary schools to receive the high performing designation in the eight counties of Western New York," LaPorta said before the start of Tuesday's meeting.
"The scores don't lie. Our school is the best out of them all, out of the seven elementary schools in the district. I don't mean to put down any other school, but they're destroying a very good school."
LaPorta and other parents insisted that fifth-graders are not yet emotionally ready to be in a school environment with eighth-graders
"The maturity level of fifth-graders versus eighth-graders is a whole big difference," LaPorta said. "I'm a single parent. Now, if she becomes a middle school student, there is no before-school and no after-school program. So, as a single parent, and I don't have that help, there's no help for these children.
"They'll be going to school earlier and coming home earlier. I cannot leave a 10-year-old child at home for three or four hours by herself."
School officials did not make any final plans Tuesday. The tentative plan, if it eventually is approved, would take effect in the fall at the start of the 2013-14 school year.
"I wish we had more time to do the planning, but there are a number things … that pushed us very quickly the last couple of months," Crawford said, without offering specifics.
"I going to be looking for our District Parent Council and other parent representatives and school employees to work with us in planning our future transition," he said. "We want to do the smart thing. We want to preserve programs as much as we can."

The Incline girls' tennis team opened the season with an exciting win at Spanish Springs on Tuesday.
Incline freshmen Anne Schrage joined senior co-captains Ginetta Sagan and Toby Felman in winning all three of their singles matches to contribute nine points to the victory.
The perennially strong Spanish Springs doubles teams won all nine of the doubles points, although senior Tara Lincoln and freshmen Amanda Pretti played some close sets.
The match went to the 6 tiebreaker format to decide a winner, and the Highlanders prevailed 4-2, with all the singles players winning their tiebreakers. Senior Kassidy Garland and Alexandra Cole delivered the decisive victory.
"What a great way to start the season," said Incline coach Jim Giancola. "We had a solid effort from everyone in windy and hot conditions. We still have work to do, and our new players, as well as our veterans, need to continue to work hard and improve as the season progresses."
UP NEXT: The Highlanders host South Tahoe on Thursday, Aug. 30, at 3 p.m.

"Jersey" isn't typically one of the shores you mention when you talk about Lake Tahoe.
But Harrah's Lake Tahoe will be awash in a bright orange glow when DJ Pauly D makes a return visit to the South Shore this weekend.
Also known as Paul DelVecchio, DJ Pauly D is best known as a star of the MTV reality TV show "Jersey Shore." Since the show's conclusion he's come into is own as a DJ.
"Pauly has spent years honing his skills to fine art. His eclectic track selection, unique style and infectious personality captivate crowds around the globe," according to his website. "Pauly is now one of the most sought after DJs in the world.
"His music library spans nearly every genre of club music and he has the exceptional ability to mix in and out of top 40 and house music, introducing an entirely new demographic to quality dance music."
After reportedly earning $13 million in the past 12 months, DelVecchio was listed as the 12th highest paid DJ in the world by "Forbes" in August.
"The Jersey Shore star earns half as much per night as some of his DJ brethren, but with 90 performances over the past year and a host of outside business ventures, he makes the Electronic Cash Kings list for the second year in a row," according to the magazine.
DJ Pauly D performs inside Harrah's Peek nightclub Saturday.
Tickets to the show are available at www.wantickets.com.

There's a big sign that suggests a lot is riding on Buffalo School Board elections Tuesday.
It hangs from the second floor of the Acropolis Restaurant on Elmwood Avenue and reads: IT'S TIME TO CHANGE OUR SCHOOLS! VOTE MAY 7th.
"I want to be in your face," restaurant owner Paul Tsouflidis explained, "and I want you to walk by it all the time and remember that on Tuesday, you have to vote."
Although turnout in school board elections is traditionally low – around 5 percent – Tsouflidis and others say they are hopeful that more people recognize what's at stake this time around and will turn out.
There are some other less literal signs that things are different this year.
A record number of candidate forums have sprouted like flowers in the desert. A former gubernatorial nominee has been a lightning rod, sparking attention as a candidate, a playmaker and a whipping boy. Teacher unions are pouring large sums of money into the races with some of the nastiest personal-attack literature anyone can remember seeing in a school board election. And there are at least two write-in campaigns.
Will any of that make a difference Tuesday?
At stake is leadership of the Buffalo Public Schools, a district that spends more than $900 million taxpayer dollars a year, is responsible for educating 30,000 children and has one of the lowest graduation rates in the state.
Tsouflidis is optimistic that more voters will turn out. He spent $320 on the banner at his restaurant to encourage Elmwood patrons and young people in general to cast their ballots for the six seats up for grabs on the Board of Education.
"I think, for the first time, and this is just me, there's never been more interest in a school board election," he said. "There are so many organizations helping schools get better, and people coming through the woodwork to help."
Others are far less sure.
"People don't really take the School Board election seriously," said Elois Liggans, a vice president with the Parent-Teacher Organization at BUILD Academy. "They don't understand how crucial that is."
History gives many people reason to be skeptical. And part of the reason may be a reflection of the School Board election calendar.
The election is held in the first week of May, not in November when most public elections are held. In addition, School Board candidates aren't named until mid-April. So city voters have a scant two to three weeks to figure out who the candidates are, where the candidates stand on the issues, and what merits their vote.
"The issues are complex, and no one is sitting down and breaking down these issues for the average person to understand," said Larry B. Williams, president of the Glenwood-Fillmore-Kehr Block Club.
The Buffalo News sent questionnaires to the School Board candidates, and a summary of their positions is contained in the graphic accompanying this story.
The Buffalo School Board does not have a say over state mandates such as standardized tests and teacher evaluations, but does has direct influence over several other issues, including:
• Whether the district will continue with its existing school choice model for elementary students, or whether it will reinstate neighborhood schools.
• Whether teachers will be required to live in the city. For years, the district had a residency requirement, but the board rescinded it about two years ago.
• Whether school buildings are kept open into the evenings as community hubs.
• Who the superintendent is. The board's primary job is to hire the superintendent.
And there are other issues that the board has the ability to influence.
For instance, the School Board does not control how much money the state or the city gives to the district, but the board frequently lobbies the Common Council to earmark more of the money it collects in taxes for the schools.
The School Board also has some influence regarding the number of local charter schools. The board has the authority to convert district schools into charter schools. And when a group wants to start a new charter school, the board holds a public hearing and offers a recommendation to the state.
Other policies in education – such as standardized testing and teacher evaluations – are determined at the state or federal level, meaning that local districts are responsible for implementing them. But a local school board cannot change the fundamental requirements.
Comprehensive information about the school board races and individual candidate profiles and district maps can be found on The Buffalo News website's School Zone blog, at http://blogs.buffalonews.com/school_zone.
In 2010, the last time six of the nine seats were up for election, fewer than 7,200 city voters cast a ballot out of 145,000 registered voters. Because of the historically low turnout, the vote tally that separates winners and losers in a school board race often measures in the dozens.
Calls to various school, community and organizational activists around the city last week suggested that this year's election may be met in many quarters with the same sense of defeatism or lack of interest that have marked past elections.
"It's been pretty quiet," said Ben Johnson, executive director of the Parkside Community Organization. "There's been very little chatter about this at all."
Nevertheless, there are a few signs that people are paying more attention this time around.
"There's a little bit more attention because of Carl," said Tom McDonnell, referring to Carl Paladino, the developer who is a candidate in the Park District. "But I think the primary direction of people's attention is going toward the issues and the need for change. I think they're more aware of the issues than they were before."
McDonnell's bookstore – Dog Ears Bookstore – held separate Park District candidate forums for Paladino and his opponent, Adrian Harris. The first two drew 20 to 30 people each. A third bookstore gathering for Paladino drew about 50 people, he said.
His candidate meet-and-greet was one of a surprising proliferation of candidate forums held in the city this year.
Susie Lenahan, a broker with M.J. Peterson Real Estate's city office, said she's encountered many people expressing interest in this year's "wild" elections for the very first time.
"People who have sort of gone, 'Oh, ho hum, I don't care' are like, 'Wow, this is really important,' " she said. "It should be very important, and it's just appalling – the low turnout. You can't complain and moan, and then sit back and do nothing. You've got to get out and vote."
Tsouflidis said that because of his sign, which he put up Thursday night, he's had people come into his restaurant asking where their polling places are. He printed up little cards to let them know where to find that information on the Erie County Board of Elections website.
"At least I'm trying, on Elmwood," he said. "If I can just get people to remember on May 7 to vote, and they actually vote, I mean, that's big."
Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday. To find your polling place, visit https://www.elections.erie.gov/voterlookup.aspx.
