"There was no way Danny was going to make it. COSAFA executive
committee (the seven member) met in Pretoria last month where it was
decided that Suketu would be re-elected for the sake of continuity.
"That was when Danny should have pulled out of the race," Rukoro said.
He had been consistent since arriving in Botswana two weeks ago that
the SAFA fourth deputy president would not be elected Cosafa president.
Swaziland Football Association's Tim Shongwe said: "At the same
meeting in Pretoria Patel asked the executive if there was anyone who
wanted to take over the baton from him as COSAFA president. His argument
was that he was the first vice-president of CAF. Danny had no chance
against him and it came as no surprise to us when SAFA president Kirsten
Nematandani announced their withdrawal from the (presidential) race."
Rukoro continued: "We do not have a problem with South Africa as a
country, but the individual. If SAFA nominated any other person and not
Danny, we would have voted for him or her. The problem with Danny is
that he made a lot of promises in the build-up to the 2010 World Cup but
has not delivered on a single one."
Jordaan said he did not nominate himself for the COSAFA election.
"I was nominated by SAFA. I decided to withdraw because people
promised us votes but their body language suggested otherwise," he said.

Cullins vs. Collins Vampyre Smackdowne!Eden Kennedy
Edward Cullen: The cast of Twilight is extremely interested to see what comes of the new Tim Burton movie, Dark Shadows. We weren't surprised to hear that Johnny Depp will be portraying the vampire, Barnabas Collins. Thanks for coming in to talk to us, Johnny.
Johnny Depp: Can you see me? I can see you!
Edward: Yes, we can see you.
Johnny: Is this Skype? Am I Skyping with you?
Alice: (Does he not know he's in a box?)
Bella: (OMG I can't believe how sexy he is.)
Alice: (I KNOW!!!1!1!!)
Edward: Johnny, how much preparation did you do for your role as Barnabas, the tortured vampire of Collinsville?
Johnny: I can't hear you. Can you hear me? I feel like I'm in a phone booth. It's crazy. Remember phone booths? They used to be everywhere.
Edward: Can we get him out of there?
Jacob: I'm on it.
Johnny: WHOA. What just happened?
Jacob: I cut you out of your packaging. I'm going to hang onto the sword until we're done talking, though. That OK with you?
Johnny: Certainly. Yes. By all means. Please don't kill me.
Edward: So, Johnny, the soap opera Dark Shadows ran on ABC from 1966 to 1971, and Barnabas Collins was one of the most gothic characters ever to appear on daytime television. How did you find yourself getting in touch with the tragedies that informed his past?
No, I don't look like Winona Ryder in Betelgeuse! Stop saying that!
Johnny: Well, er, Barnabas Collins was a kind of hero to me as a child, I was obsessed with him, and the darkness that the gothic writers explored. It all goes in a straight line through Keith Richards and straight back to Bram Stoker, with a little side trip through Goethe and a glimpse of Mary Shelley's ankles.
Edward: Keith Richards? Is your hat on too tight?
Johnny: It is! It's incredibly tight, how did you know! Who wants to hold it for me? What's your name, darling?
Alice: Alice?
Johnny: Alice, lovely. There's a good girl.
Alice: I'm going to die.
Bella: Ha! You're already dead. Let me try it on.
Alice: Give me a minute. Let me have this moment.
Edward: Johnny, what can you tell us about Barnabas's beginnings? How did he become a vampire?
Johnny: He was bitten by a vampire bat.
Jacob: Gross.
Johnny: Yes, it was gross! It was a vampire bat from Hell, too! That's some straight-up intravenous vampire smack, my friend. Try having your blood changed in Switzerland after that little pajama party. No dice.
Bella: Okay, now it's my turn.
Edward: Oh, sorry. Please, Bella, ask Johnny a question.
Bella: No, I mean I want to try on his hat!
Edward: Sigh.
Bella: You can have a turn after me.
Edward: I don't want a turn.
Bella: You're jealous.
Edward: Of him? Sorry, no.
Bella: Yes, you are. He is way more famous than you.
Edward: I'm not going to dispute that.
Johnny: Lovers spat, eh, Alice? What's a nice girl like you doing celebrity interviews for? Someone should be interviewing you. You look devastating in that chapeau.
Alice: *dies*
Edward: FINE, I'LL WEAR THE HAT.
Edward: This is humiliating.
Johnny: So it is, my friend. So it is.
Bella: Johnny, was Barnabas Collins the main character in the show? Was Collinsville named after him?
Johnny: That's a good question, Bella, because Barnabas was actually introduced as a short-running character after ratings started to flag, and then he proved to be hugely popular so they gave him a bigger role and eventually he became the star of the show. Collinsville was named for his family, who were the big shots in that part of Maine. That fictional part of Maine, I should say. I think Maine is the creepiest state, don't you?
Bella: I don't know, the Pacific Northwest is pretty spooky.
Johnny: Yes, in a sort of Indian burial ground way, I suppose. But New England had witch burnings and they gave little girls those terrible porcelain dolls with blinking eyes, and then the eyes get stuck half-open! Creepy. It's creepy vs. spooky, I suppose. Apples and oranges.
Bella: My dad had the Barnabas Collins board game as a kid.
Johnny: Yes! Loved that! Wish I still had one.
Edward: I'm going back into my box now.
Bella: You're just jealous that I'm a better interviewer than you.
Edward: I can't hear you, Bella.
Bella: I can't believe I'm married to you forever.
Edward: Join us next time when we continue discussing season two of Downton Abbey with a surprise special guest!
Johnny: Will it be me? I love Downton Abbey. I could be a butler if I wanted. Anthony Hopkins told me how. He said, "When a butler is in the room, the room should feel even more empty." Isn't that amazing advice? A real butler told him that.
Edward: I can't hear you!

Routine use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) for the treatment of cardiovascular disease is well established.1,2 However, because most randomized controlled trials have excluded patients with advanced chronic kidney disease,3 the role of ACEIs/ARBs in chronic dialysis patients remains poorly defined. Our objective was to determine whether ACEI/ARB use is associated with a reduction in mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events in older chronic dialysis patients.
We conducted a retrospective, population-based cohort study using linked health care databases in Ontario, Canada. To minimize bias, we used a new-user study design.4 The study population was composed of older chronic dialysis patients in Ontario (age ≥66 years) who were newly treated with ACEIs/ARBs, calcium channel blockers (CCBs), or statins between July 1, 1991, and July 31, 2007. We selected new treatment with ACEIs/ARBs as the exposure group and new treatment with CCBs or statins-only as the comparator groups to minimize confounding by indication and because CCBs and statins have not been shown to be clearly beneficial in this population. We excluded patients with missing demographic information or incomplete drug records.
Patients were stratified into 1 of 3 mutually exclusive treatment groups (ACEI/ARB, CCB, or statin) and were prospectively observed for up to 5 years, or March 31, 2010. The primary outcome was a composite of all-cause mortality or hospitalization for myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, heart failure (HF), or coronary revascularization. Secondary end points included each component of the primary end point. We used an intention-to-treat approach. We estimated event-free survival by the Kaplan-Meier method and used the log-rank test for comparison. We used standardized differences to compare baseline characteristics in the 3 treatment groups, and Cox proportional hazards regression, adjusting for age, sex, diabetes, hypertension, coronary artery disease, HF, dialysis duration, and the Deyo-Revised Charlson Comorbidity score.5- 7
During the study period, we identified 1950 older chronic dialysis patients in Ontario who initiated treatment with 1 of the study drug classes. There were no systematic differences in the baseline characteristics between the treatment groups (Table 1). There was no significant difference in event-free survival among the 3 groups (log-rank P = .12). In multivariable analysis, the use of ACEIs/ARBs was not independently associated with a reduction in the primary outcome (hazard ratio, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.84-1.13) or secondary outcomes compared with the CCB group (Table 2). Similar results were obtained when the ACEI/ARB group was compared with the statin-only group.
In this population-based cohort study of chronic dialysis patients older than 65 years, new use of ACEIs or ARBs was not independently associated with an overall reduction in major adverse cardiovascular events. Data from previous randomized controlled trials and observational studies have been conflicting. This study offers unique insights into the use of ACEIs/ARBs in chronic dialysis patients through its new-user study design.4 Although this new-user study design has not been used extensively in chronic dialysis patients, it allows for a less biased evaluation of the "real world" safety and effectiveness of secondary prevention therapies in such patients, in contrast to randomized controlled trials, which often recruit highly selected healthier patients.8,9
We focused on chronic dialysis patients older than 65 years, who are the most underrepresented in clinical trials.9 Despite their high baseline cardiovascular risk, as evidenced by the high event rate in our study, treatment benefit with ACEIs/ARBs was not observed. Another strength of our study was the large unselected cohort of incident dialysis patients observed for longer periods to more accurately assess the cardiovascular effects of ACEIs/ARBs.
Important limitations of our study are that drug therapy was not randomly assigned, and we analyzed classes of drugs rather than individual drugs. We selected our control groups with the expectation that these would serve as nonactive comparators. If statin or CCB use can indeed confer cardiovascular protection in chronic dialysis patients, our comparative analysis may have attenuated any observed benefit of ACEIs/ARBs.
In conclusion, our data suggest that use of ACEI or ARB therapy in chronic dialysis patients may not favorably impact cardiovascular outcomes. Compared with patients with normal kidney function, chronic dialysis patients may not derive the same cardiovascular benefit from ACEI/ARB use. Given the substantial cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in the expanding chronic dialysis patient population, a large definitive randomized controlled trial of ACEIs/ARBs is warranted.

April 11th, 2014
I just returned from the lush campus of the University of South Florida, Tampa. That's the entrance to their campus dining rooms and hotel, above — pretty easy on the eyes after a harsh winter here. They've got flowers growing everywhere. My god, they have people employed to blow leaves off the walkways. One could get used to that, as with the Cuban-inspired food.
I was attending a two-day forum on 'global engagement in research.' That's putting you to sleep already, I am sure. But the topic happens to be part of the ongoing conversation we are all having about how best to internationalize our campuses—in this case, by marrying our research agendas to our international activities. You'd think these two offices or areas would be natural allies, and they are, but institutions aren't set up for easy collaborations—quite the opposite. I traveled to Tampa with a colleague who works in the research office directly across the hall but we had more time talking together down there than we have had in years of sharing the same corridor. Partly it's time—who has it, anyway? Away from the daily routines it's much easier catching up—especially at the bar.
I think our group of three Memorial participants was the only Canadian contingent. Well, good for us. What blows my mind, time after time, is how US-centric these meetings can be. There were delegates from China, Chile, Japan, and so on, and yet the hosts and speakers kept referring to the 'we' that is the USA. When you consider that we were at a meeting about how best to internationalize our campuses, the ethnocentricity is particularly galling. As usual, when people find out from whence we hail there are the usual isn`t-it-cold questions, followed by some bad pronunciation of Newfoundland and more generalizations. Sure, everyone means well, but you would think that educated administrators and academics would know better. We did have lunch one day with someone who had gone to school in Ontario and he unhesitatingly named all the universities in that province—more than most Canadians could probably do. Impressive, but rare.
The forum itself was okay—no earth-shattering discoveries but a huge value of meetings like this is finding validation. You get to understand and appreciate what you are doing at your own shop and realize you are already ahead of things and dealing with the challenges everyone talks about. As with so many of these meetings, it's often not so much what people say but how they say it. A good speaker can turn even the most banal topic into an engaging address. Probably the strongest speaker we heard from was the last one, Dr. Kathie Olsen, a former chief researcher at NASA and founder and managing director of something called Science Works, a firm for setting people up in science-related employment. She was lively and smart and used power point slides expertly. It was also refreshing hearing from such a witty woman. Olsen echoed many for the discussion points we had heard for a couple of days but she did so by drawing on her deep knowledge in the world of science research. I would love to have heard more from her about what it was like as a chief officer at NASA. I bet she has some good stories.
No one at the forum needed to be convinced that we should all be broadening our horizons; it was more about the how to do so. Evidence revealed that research directors know less about what international office directors do than the other way around. No surprise there. If a campus lacks senior leadership in this area then there`s no hope. That probably applies to a lot of things, if not everything.
A major take-away: you need to take risks to play with others. No point in partnering with other countries if you are hung up on strict culture-bound regulatory frameworks. Finding common ground is a patience-taxing exercise but the only way to move towards a handshake. Diplomats know that. Time for academics to learn that, too.

A host of UAW, state, regional and General Motors officials turned out to celebrate the announcement that GM will invest $145 million at the Orion Assembly Center, to build Buick's new future compact sedan – the all-new Verano.
The Verano, a slightly smaller car than the new Buick Regal, is the first entry of a small car for Buick in over 20 years.
GM North American President Mark Reuss, who started his career at the Orion facility working in the body shop, said the investment is an important step for the state, region and country.
"This is very important, especially when you look at the way America is beginning to buy cars that are little bit different than the way they did it in the past, cars that are fuel efficient, beautiful, a little smaller but just elegant and high quality as the bigger and more expensive cars have been in the past," said Reuss. "Orion will be job one for this resurgence in this market in America."
The announcement was made as part of a comprehensive investment package. The current retooling of the facility will retain 1,550 hourly and salaried jobs at Orion, along with 120 jobs at Pontiac Metal Center. Orion will also build the next generation of Chevrolet's new small car.
The total investment for that program is approximately $600 million, which includes the Verano. The improvements to the Orion plant are expected to be finished by summer 2011.
GM has worked closely with the United Auto Workers to create new and innovative contractual language that will allow this facility to be flexible and lean – essential elements in the highly competitive small car market segment.
"The UAW welcomes the news of an additional vehicle being allocated to the Orion Assembly Plant. Building small cars in the United States is very important to the UAW, Oakland County, and the state of Michigan," said Joe Ashton, UAW vice president of the GM Department.
"Given the opportunity, our members can use their expertise and experience to build high-quality, affordable vehicles for American consumers. I would like to extend my congratulations to the members of UAW Locals 653 and 5960 for all their hard work to make this important project a successful one."
Gov. Jennifer Granholm praised the Verano announcement, highlighting the partnerships between GM, UAW and public and community officials that worked to keep the Orion plant open.
"If we are going to manufacture in America we have to embrace public/ private partnerships," said Granholm. "We have to have a manufacturing industrial policy in America that creates jobs here rather than somewhere else. This is an example of reversing the trend — small cars, being built in America by American workers."
Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson, also on hand for the event, said the county's investment of $1.5 million for job training for the project represented the largest investment that the county has made in job training to date.
Over its more than 27-year history, the Orion plant team members have built more than four million cars for GM, while setting an industry record of ten million man hours of continuous operation without a work day lost to injury. The plant also was the first GM facility to receive the Clean Corporate Citizen designation by the State of Michigan.
No announcements have been made regarding the production or timing for the Verano and Chevrolet's new small car.

Editor's CommentaryFrom the monthly column: CNC Tech Talk
• How can I tell if my machine has custom macro B?
There are two ways you can do this. With newer FANUC controls, if you find a display screen soft key labeled MAC VAR, press it. If the display shows a series of variables (such as #1, #2, #3 and so on), the machine has custom macro B. If you can't find this soft key, try inputting and executing the command using manual data input (MDI):
#100 = 1
If the control executes the command without generating an alarm, the machine has custom macro B.
• Is there a way to get the machine to prompt the operator for an input?
This would be a helpful feature. You might have an application that requires the operator to answer a question prior to continuing. Unfortunately, there is no such feature in custom macro B, but there is a work-around. You can use the stop with message system variable (#3006) to stop the machine (just like M00) and place a message on the display screen. The message can tell the operators to enter a value into a given variable. The operator then presses the cycle start button to continue. Here's an example:
When the control executes this command, it will stop the machine and place the message ENTER DIA IN #101 on the display screen. The operator must then call up the variable page and enter a diameter in common variable #101. Finally, the operator presses cycle start to have the machine continue. In the custom macro, it would be wise to test the value of the entered value for correctness prior to allowing the program to continue.
• Is it better to use G10 or system variables to enter offset data?
There are two ways to enter data into offsets, G10 and system variables. These two commands do exactly the same thing on a 21 series FANUC control:
Both of these commands set the X register of fixture offset No.1 to 13.2726. So which is better? Here are two considerations:
First, G10 is more universal when writing values into offsets. Different FANUC control models use different system variables to provide access offsets. So, if you have several controls requiring the same program, you might have to reference different system variable numbers in each program. The same G10 command can be used in all programs.
Second, you must use system variables if you ever need to read from an offset register. G10 does not allow this ability. So the following command will place the current value of fixture offset No.1's X register into common variable:
#101 = #5221
If you need only to write values into offsets, G10 will be better because it's more universal. However, if you have to read the values of offsets, it might be better to stick with the system variables for everything.
• Can I use AND and OR within conditional (IF) statements?
This ability provides more versatility for developing conditional expressions. Consider these two series of commands that confirm the value of #101 is between five and ten.
Without AND
IF [#101 LT 10] GOTO 3 #3000 =100 (BAD INPUT) N3 IF [101 GT 5] GOTO 5 #3000 = 100 (BAD INPUT) N4 … (Program continues) . .
With AND
IF [#101 GT 5] AND [#101 LT 10] GOTO 5 #3000 = 100 (BAD INPUT) N5 … (Program continues) . .
With older controls, AND and OR were reserved for use with binary expressions and could not be used in the manner shown in the second example above. However, newer controls do allow AND and OR to be used within conditional expressions. Unfortunately, I can't tell you which control models allow AND and OR to be used in this manner, but if you write a lot of custom macros, it would be worth your time to test it.
Keep in mind that if programs are run in multiple machines, you will not be able to use this new feature for programs run in older machines.

Zeppelin mod review (1.8.1)
The Zeppelin mod adds a whole new way to navigate the beautiful, lush landscape of Minecraft. It's never been so rewarding to ride in your gold-plated airship that actually flies. The recent update has made the mod able to move all blocks now. So go ahead and make any aircraft out of anything and off you go! (reviewed at 1.8.1)
The Good
- A flyable, rideable, boatable (boatable?) device that you control
- Fully make the aircraft to your personal taste and preferences
- Have any block you want on your aircraft
- Fly around Minecraft in a legit way, hell yeah
The Bad
- Still very glitchy
- Not many new sounds and textures
- Some blocks glitch out on occasion
Content: 4.5/5
For content, this mod is endless. The mod has as much content as your imagination. Other than that, it adds in 4 new blocks to the game that each move in different ways. The first block is the Airship Controller – The controller for your typical flying machine. Next is the Elevator controller – Platform goes up/down. Then there's the Turntable Controller – Which acts as a rotating device. Finally there's the Boat controller which is for making and piloting a boat. So these 4 blocks manage to make a hell of a difference to Minecraft. Stunning idea…
Sounds/Visual Aspects: 3.5/5
There are currently no added sounds. However, visually, the way the blocks can be diagonal agianst the world is awesome and creates a believable airship, which reels you into the mod. There're also changes made to the 4 different blocks in the game. These could do with improving, however.
Glitches: 2.5/5
This mod has been well known for it's nooks and crannies, but the modder usually fixes all bug reports in the following update. Still though, there are many things that can go wrong. One common glitch is falling off your aircraft through the blocks randomly. Another is when the blocks go all crazy when you crash sometimes. But I'm sure this will be pretty much glitchless soon.
Installation: 4.5/5
Another immensely easy mod to install. Simly download modloader delete the META-INF and of course, drag 'n' drop! That's right, our favorite, simply drag the mod's zip contents into your minecraft.jar and you're away!
Photo Gallery!
The Verdict
This mod is definitely worth downloading as it creates whole new reasons to play Minecraft. Once the glitches are gone and he sharpens up the textures a bit, this will defianlty be a top 10 mod!

Sir.—Health issues facing adolescents have changed dramatically over the last several decades.1 Twenty years ago, adolescent morbidity and mortality were associated predominantly with natural causes. Adolescents today, however, are endangered predominantly by their own behaviors. Drinking, tobacco and drug use, pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, and injuries take a major toll on youth and place them at risk of developing disease as adults. Because these health risks do not lend themselves to traditional models of medical intervention, greater emphasis is needed on prevention as a way to improve the health and well-being of adolescents.
The process of identifying and implementing a broad prevention startegy has gained momentum with the recent release of two documents by the US Public Health Service (PHS):—Healthy People 2000: The National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives2 and the Guide to Clinical Preventive Services.3 Unfortunately, pediatricians and other health care professionals treating

It is ridiculous and repulsive what Kit Culkin and Pat Bentrup are doing to their children. Kit seems to be a coldhearted man who has no respect for his family's well-being. In my opinion, the children should be awarded to Pat, and the only way Kit should be able to see them is through plate glass.

I pray for Macaulay and hope he has the strength to pull through this messy custody battle without turning to drugs or alcohol for solace. There are actually people out here who think of him as a talented, carefree and fun-loving 15-year-old rather than just another object with a huge price tag.
MAIZIE LAU, New York City
I recently spotted Macaulay Culkin conversing with a homeless woman on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. He took a bunch of bills out of his pocket and handed over at least $20 to the woman. She told me that every night he stops by to give her some money, and that when he is away he has food sent to her. In this case, I guess that apple does fall far from the tree.

There must be a special sort of hell reserved for every single person who stood by submissively on that bridge and watched Deletha Word mercilessly beaten. May each and every one of them be haunted by her helplessness and terror, and by their own inactivity, for the rest of their lives. It would be really interesting to hear their responses to her former classmate Demetrius Daniels' question: "What's wrong with our society?" To find the answer, they'd need only look in the mirror.
JILL WEGLARZ, Wayne, Pa.
To those people interviewed who tried to rationalize their atrocious behavior, I hope they never find themselves in need of assistance, of any kind, from a stranger. They deserve to be ignored, just as they ignored the pleas of Deletha.

Three cheers for Senator Boxer for keeping up the pressure on that old pervert Bob Packwood. It is amazing to me that after all the women who have told their stories about this dirty old man, he is still in Washington deciding our children's future. The man should be fired pronto!

Robert Packwood has since resigned from the Senate.—ED.
Oh, come on, Ms. Boxer, get over it! A single incident of harassment more than 30 years ago. You should have kneed him in the groin, called his wife and gotten on with your life. I, too, have been the "victim" of sexual harassment, but I have chosen to take it as a lesson on the behavior of middle-aged men. I don't feel victimized, and I certainly don't need women like you sticking your nose in my life.

Sometimes it seems like any Wings loss is blamed on not caring or no effort or whatever. I've been very pleased with their effort tonight. They've skated well, thrown some hits, generated lots of scoring chances. No puck luck would be my main complaint, but I don't know which guy on the team I can blame for that.
Please don't even start to blame the refs. Most of this team looks like they don't even give a s*** about playing hard and competitive hockey. After getting embarrassed you would think they would care about playing better for longer than 2 games but tonight they have a case of the "f*** its." Pathetic.
A team can play well and still lose. It happens all the time, and it's happening tonight, by my reckoning.

Portability and having it with me as second nature when I'm out with Jake is the reason that I got this product. (I have another 'folding' bowl but it's too rigid to carry easily without making a big deal out of it.) Though there wasn't any problem with Jake (black lab at 75 pounds) using it, the bowl could be a bit wider. If it had another one or two inches in diameter I'd give in 5 stars.
I haven't used it a lot, but it definitely will take care of the business at hand. A very good price, and everyone should have a couple, if they are doing a lot of training around the house or outside, makes it very convenient.

The New Orleans Tourism Marketing Corporation board on Tuesday (Aug. 19) completed an annual performance review of its president, Mark Romig. Its chairman and members returned from a closed meeting to issue glowing praise for Romig and announce a bonus of 30 percent of his base salary, the highest possible incentive under his contract.
Romig's contract last year set his pay at $170,408 before cost of living raises or incentive payments. The contract has a 13-point list of goals for measuring his performance, including showing growth in the tourism industry, growth in the reach of the group's media instruments such as its web site and advertising campaigns and strength of his organizational leadership.
He receives half the bonus, almost $26,000, immediately. The other half is deposited in an account he can draw from when he leaves the position. Romig said he asked for the provision reserving some of his bonus payments for later.
Board Chairman Darryl Berger said Romig is remarkable in his ability to link the agency that promotes the city as a tourism destination with leaders and organizations across the city. The sentiment to grant him the highest bonus, Berger said, was "the unanimous and overwhelming feeling" of the board made of up hospitality industry leaders.
"I'm not certain you do not have a twin brother, because everywhere I go, you seem to be there," Dan Real, regional president for Ceasar's Entertainment, which owns the New Orleans Harrah's Casino, told Romig after the decision.
Romig began leading the Tourism Corporation in 2011. He said he opted not to be considered for bonuses until he was established in his job. Last year the board granted his first bonus at 26 percent, half paid immediately and half saved for later. His contract runs through 2015.
"It's unbelievable to have the opportunity to do what I do on a regular basis," Romig told the board. "I don't want to do anything else."
Under Romig, the organization hired a new principal advertising agency, called 360i and based in New York. It increased collaboration with the New Orleans Convention and Visitors Bureau, which focuses on attracting meetings. It also launched a new promotional campaign called "Follow Your NOLA," meant to appeal to people who prefer open-ended exploration of their destinations.
That campaign has included intensified digital advertising and some new promotional tactics.
One example was a New Orleans-promoting food truck that toured Texas this year along with a chef, brass band trumpeter and Mardi Gras Indian. Another new project is an agreement with Disney to use the character Tiana from the New Orleans-set film The Princess and the Frog to appeal to family travelers.
The board heard an update on Tuesday about the Disney project. Jeff Hinson of 360i said more than 204,000 people have entered a Tiana-themed sweepstakes for a trip to New Orleans. Hinson showed a video produced by Disney splicing scenes from the city from the animated feature with live scenes of corresponding places in New Orleans.
"I think this is a model that we'd like to enhance next year," Hinson said.
Hinson also described a new partnership with the Dirty Coast specialty T-shirt maker to create an online store for products with the "Follow Your NOLA" theme.
Romig also described plans to extend marketing efforts through the year.
The group was created to boost tourism in the traditionally slow summer months, and it aims its main marketing campaigns to that time of the year.
With help from a new fee hotels agreed to assess on themselves, he said, the group will lengthen its campaign in 2015, starting television advertising in select markets in March instead of May, for example.
"We'd like to be, as we say, evergreen in 2015, up there all the time," Romig said.

In economics, (1) Materials or equipment used to produce goods (e.g., tools, parts, inventory, buildings, fixtures, hours of training); or (2) money that is used in a business venture. Capital is created by saving, rather than consuming, economic output. Over time, saving accumulates into capital; it also depreciates.
The total amount of capital in an economy is very important in determining total output.

To the Editor:
In response to Mary Singleton's Thursday letter, "Dear letter-writers: Let's come together":
I wish you lived in my neighborhood. Thank you for your thoughts. Don't lose hope. How about as a public service to all the moderate readers of this paper, The Post-Standard declares Thanksgiving week "the week of positive letters only."
The readership can use a break from all the bitter, divisive and, in some cases, hateful comments that go on in this section much too often. I know, I know: freedom of speech. How about some "relief freedom" for the rest of us this week. It would be a great example for our children, who, by the way, learn from everything we say and do.

Site note: In an effort to reduce the amount of negativity produced by BurningRiverBaseball.com we will no longer be making any mention of Austin Kearns until he either gets his batting average above .250 or is removed from the roster. I believe we have said all there is to be said about this particular outfielder and will now await the Indians response to the situation.
Player of the Game
Travis Hafner won his second 'Player of the Game' in the last three games, this time with a 2 run home run. Pronk has been on base in each of his last 22 games played and has a hit in each game since coming off the DL. Tonight, 3 of the 4 Indians runs scored came with Hafner at the plate, the other run coming when starting pitcher Jason Hammel balked home Jack Hannahan. Hammel obviously balked out of pure fear of Hafner. His final 'POG' score for the game was 4.12 and he has now won 6 total in 2011.
Feathers Up
Like any pitcher, Josh Tomlin has had his struggles this season, but he crammed them all into 4 consecutive starts. Tomlin started the season with 9 straight great games, then fell off for the next four. In the two games since then, Tomlin has regained his stride and has pitched well in his last two games. Yes, he does give up a lot of home runs, but that is only because he pitches to contact and lets his fielders do the work. Very rarely are there base runners on for those home runs and he has yet to allow a steal attempt this season. Overall, Tomlin, along with Justin Masterson, has been one of the Indians most consistently successful starters all year.
Vinnie Pestano has earned a hold in 4 of his last 5 appearances and did not give up a run in any of them. His 10 holds are second on the Indians to Tony Sipp (14) and tied for 10th in the American League. Tonight Pestano struck out 3 batters in one inning of work (spread across the 7th and 8th). Over his last 4 games he has struck out 8 batters in 4.2 innings.
Feathers Down
There was no rain tonight so we didn't get to hear Matt Underwood, Rick Manning and Mike Hargrove do their weatherman routine.
Final Score: Cleveland Indians 4 – Colorado Rockies 3

By Stephen Black,
Pennsylvania Builders Association President
If you're getting a haircut, Pennsylvania has you covered. Likewise, when you need an auctioneer or a landscape architect, you're protected.
At least you're safe if you think a state-issued license protects you.
State legislators have proposed laws to license tanning salons, plumbers, private detectives, home inspectors and interior designers. Is there any protection? Or, is the government creating cartels that limit competition and provide a false sense of security?
Consumer advocates regularly point out that home improvement contractors, like other construction jobs, are not licensed in our state. They argue that barbers are licensed, but not home improvement contractors. Instead of using this logic to add licenses, let's consider the need for licenses. Does the public benefit when people get haircuts from a licensed barber?
In construction, the faulty logic of licensing is obvious. If the state required home repairs to conform to the Uniform Construction Code, consumers would benefit. It doesn't, and homeowner safety declines. In contrast, licensing plumbers fails to set a standard for their work.
Instead of wasting money with new licenses, state government should evaluate how the public benefits from its current array of licenses. Otherwise, any new licensing programs might very well exist solely as a revenue source for government, providing no legitimate consumer-protection service.
The Reason Foundation recently investigated state policies for licensed jobs. The study shows arbitrary differences among states. Few agree on which jobs to regulate, and even fewer on how to regulate them. Pennsylvania residents appear to get along without licensing fortune tellers, beekeepers, chimney sweeps and florists. Other states function without spending so much time regulating cemeteries and campgrounds, as we do here.
Few people would argue against licensing medical professionals, for which the state issues 20 different licenses in fields such as midwifery, acupuncture and athletic training.
But do we need five sets of licensing credentials for barbers? Do you sleep better at night because geologists are licensed? Should the government decide whether a dietician is qualified?
The medical field pales in comparison with real estate, where 23 licenses are available. Six of these license cemetery owners and employees. Lawmakers must have wanted to watch the death business closely: State law requires licenses for 11 occupations related to funeral homes.
The Pennsylvania Builders Association would simply like to know how the public benefits from existing and proposed occupational licenses. Let's consider why we need regulators overseeing six types of auctioneer licenses before we send agents after the interior designers based on consumer complaints of "hideous" paint schemes.

How To Tell If A Guy Is Attracted To You - Sign No. 5

The Kihei Community Association is requesting that the present version of the Maui Island Plan's "Implementation Program" be amended by the Maui County Council to include some of the deleted General Plan Advisory Committee recommendations that were based on the testimony from hundreds of Maui residents and most community associations during dozens of public meetings.
Unfortunately, the GPAC recommendations were deleted from the planning director's recommended "Implementation Program," which formed the basis for the council Planning Committee's transmittal to the full council.
As an all-volunteer association, members of the KCA board of directors feel an action of this nature is detrimental to community initiative, which implies that volunteer efforts of this magnitude are meaningless to our county government.
The most important of the deleted GPAC proposals are summarized below. They should be reinserted into the "Implementation Program" because they will help to better implement the Maui Island Plan's policies that the council has already adopted.
* The South Maui community plan district should have its own permanent community district planning advisory committee. Hana has such an advisory board, and Molokai and Lanai have their own planning commissions.
* There is a need for neutral environmental reviews. Proposals to change land uses are often prepared by a consultant hired and paid for by a developer, offering the impression the consultants may owe their allegiance to the developer and not to the community. Therefore, environmental assessment and environmental impact statement documents should be prepared by a consultant selected by and under the direction of the Planning Department. That consultant should be paid by the developer.
* The relevance of old documents needs to be determined. Often, county commissions and the County Council will be asked to make decisions based on information contained in documents prepared many years earlier. For example, a redevelopment is again going before the planning commission with some permits, including traffic study, over a decade old. It is the KCA's stance that all studies and documents completed more than five years prior to an application should be considered out of date unless the decision-making body affirms by a positive vote that the document is timely and relevant.
Public testimony before the GPAC was strongly in favor of this recommendation. The recent Turtle Bay Supreme Court decision established the need for updated and timely documents.
* All future community plan and zoning entitlements should have a fixed time limit, and violation of these limits would void such entitlements. This will discourage land banking, provide for more stable employment opportunities and ensure smooth planning.
* Revenues needed to satisfy the infrastructure requirements of the Maui Island Plan. Because of the great expense to implement the needed infrastructure for new developments, impact fees need to be assessed in future developments. For example, because new housing, visitor units or commercial space along Piilani and Honopiilani highways create additional police, fire, wastewater, solid waste and/or traffic control requirements, proportional impact fees are needed to fund state and county projects.
* Mary Trotto is a member of the Kihei Community Association board of directors.

Pancreatic Pseudocsyts
As the name suggests, pseudocysts are not actually cysts. They are not sacs, but rather cavities inside the pancreas that are surrounded by fibrous tissue. They often contain a fluid that includes enzymes released by the exocrine pancreas. Pancreatic pseudocysts occur in about one in 1000 adults.
Pseudocysts are most commonly a result of pancreatitis. During pancreatitis, the pancreatic ducts become swollen, which can cause blockage of or damage to the ducts, and this injury can result in the formation of a pseudocyst.
Pseudocysts are not cancerous, but can cause painful or uncomfortable symptoms, such as nausea, pain in the stomach and back, and a feeling of fullness or bloating, especially if they become large. Drainage, either surgically or using a less invasive procedure, is often recommended to relieve these symptoms and reduce the risk of subsequent complications.
If left untreated, a pancreatic pseudocyst can become infected (pancreatic abscess), and even burst, which can cause life-threatening complications, including excess internal bleeding (hemorrhage). A ruptured or bleeding pseudocyst is a medical emergency.

Susannah McCorkle
Lyricist Mercer died in 1976, one of the geniuses of popular music; the songs graced by his bright, inventive and often intricate words included That Old Black Magic, Blues in the Night, Laura, Jeepers Creepers, Something's Gotta Give and Lazybones. He could not have asked for a better interpreter than McCorkle, 35, a California-born jazz singer with a complex and innovative style of her own. An Italian literature major at Berkeley, she developed a following in London after five years as a translator in Europe, but now spends most of her time playing East Coast cabarets, singing Sedaka and Joel as well as Porter and Gershwin. She has a graceful, Billie Holiday-like way of floating off with a note, then slipping it gently back into the melody. She also displays an expressive touch with a lyric that can refresh Mercer standbys like Fools Rush In or One for My Baby. Spritely and coy doing his My New Celebrity Is You ("I swooned at Mia Farrow/Angular and narrow/Drove a Pierce-Arrow/To a Gatsby preview"), she is backed throughout this marvelous album by a group of British jazz musicians, notably saxman Danny Moss and trumpeter Digby Fairweather. In all, McCorkle performs 14 Mercer songs—wisely omitting about the only clinker of his career, the sappily commercial Moon River.

The renaissance of Cole Hamels extended into another start Sunday. He threw seven innings, struck out eight, and walked none in a no-decision. He threw more than 115 pitches for the second straight start and he looked strongest in the seventh inning of a 3-2 Phillies win.
The 29-year-old lefthander salvaged his season with a mechanical adjustment at the end of May.
"I wasn't getting myself in a right timing so I could release the pitches the right way and expect the results that I know I'm capable of," Hamels said. "Once I was able to watch the video of years past and work on things over and over, then it finally just clicked. Then, boom, here we have it."

NW Cornell Road- Audubon Society Entrance
Final Project Evaluation
The Traffic Investigations Section undertook a traffic calming project in the summer of 1999 to address traffic problems identified by the Audubon Society of Portland on NW Cornell Road between NW 53rd and NW30th Avenues, in front of the Audubon Society Visitors Center.
Area Map
NW Cornell Road is a Neighborhood Collector that serves single family residences in unincorporated Multnomah and Washington Counties. The portion of Cornell Road near the Audubon Society is a forested, winding, rural road with almost no development adjacent to the street. NW Cornell has neither sidewalks nor curbs but there are several park trails crossing Cornell Road at various locations. Additionally, there are horizontal and vertical curves that limit sight distances.
Project History
The Audubon Society is concerned with pedestrian safety and driver speeds in front of their business. Approximately 50,000 people visit the Audubon Society annually, including many school age children. Additionally, there are many park trails that cross Cornell Road in this vicinity. The high automobile speeds make it difficult for pedestrians to safely judge crossing opportunities. Additionally, the horizontal curves in the roadway are hard for vehicles to negotiate at high speeds and have caused several accidents near the Audubon Society.
Previous requests for pedestrian improvements resulted in the installation of pedestrian advance signs and curve warning signs. Neither appears to have improved the problem. Traffic Management considered the installation of a pedestrian signal but this was rejected due to the long crossing area, inadequate sight distance for the signal heads and concerns about signal violation (signal does not meet warrants). The Audubon Society has proposed speed bumps in the past but Cornell Road was identified as an emergency response route until 1998, when the Fire Bureau removed that designation.
Project Goals
The main goal for the Audubon Society and the City of Portland was to reduce vehicle speeds in the vicinity of the Audubon House and pedestrian crossing area. Reduced vehicle speeds will reduce the required stopping sight distance near the crosswalk, which is limited due to the horizontal curve. Reduced speeds will also increase the number of gaps for pedestrians crossing Cornell Road.
Proposed Solution
Two 22-foot speed bumps are proposed near Audubon House, one on either side of the marked crosswalk. The bumps should reduce vehicle speeds to 30 mph near the crosswalk, making it easier for pedestrians to see approaching vehicles and judge crossing opportunities. They will also slow vehicles through the curve where several accidents have been reported, many due to excessive speeds.
Open House
The project was coordinated with the Audubon Society. A public open house was not held since the Audubon Society and Forest Park own the property adjacent to the project.
The Bureau of Maintenance constructed two 22-foot speed bumps, spaced 385 feet apart, near the Audubon House on NW Cornell Road on June 18, 1999.
Vehicle Speeds
As the graph shows, vehicle speeds, previously concentrated between 38 and 41 mph, have been shifted into the range of 30 to 37 mph. The average 85th percentile speed before the project was 39 mph. Since bump construction the average 85th percentile speed is 33 mph and ranges from a low of 30 mph (at the crosswalk) to a high of 37 mph. Before installation of the speed bumps 29-60% of drivers exceeded the posted speed limit of 35 mph and 1-4% exceeded the limit by 10 mph or more. Since bump construction 2-22% of drivers exceed the posted speed limit and 0-1% exceed the limit by 10 mph or more.
Traffic Volume
Traffic volumes measured before bump construction averaged 8293 vehicles per day (vpd) and varied from 8015 to 8645 vpd. After bump construction volumes averaged 7943 vpd and varied from 7694 to 8276 vpd.
Traffic volumes were not measured on adjacent streets since Cornell Road is rural and there are no parallel local streets that would allow for diversion. The best alternate route to Cornell Road is NW Skyline to NW Burnside, neither of which are local service streets.
The NW Cornell Road Traffic Calming Project has succeeded in meeting the primary goal of reducing vehicle speeds near Audubon House. 85th-percentile speeds have been reduced from 39 mph to 31 mph at the crosswalk. The Audubon Society perceives that traffic is slowing through the area and is pleased with the project.
Traffic Calming on NW Cornell Road at Audubon House has enhanced pedestrian safety as well as street and driver safety.

Part I
Chapter VI
Honor started forward at a run as soon as she caught sight of them, her pale face lit with a warm ray of kindliness and hospitality.
'Auch, and is it there you are; Kitty Daly?' she exclaimed. 'But it is the bad place you have taken to sit in, so it is, and all your poor young children too! And it is you that look bad, too, this day, God love us!—yes indeed, but bad! And is it long that you have been sitting there? My God, I would have left the door open if I had thought you would come and I not in it! Yet it is not a cold day either, praise be to God!—no it is a very fine, warm day. There has not been a finer day this season, if so be it will last till his reverence comes next week for the pathern. But what brings you up this afternoon at all, at all? It is too soon for you to be coming up the hill!, and you so weak still—too soon altogether!'
While she was speaking the woman had got up, her whole little brood, save the baby which she held in her arms, rising with her as if by a single impulse. Seen in the strong light which fell upon their faces over the top of the gully they looked even more piteous, more wan and wobegone than when they were squatting in the comparative shadow at the base of the rock. She made no direct reply to Honor's question, but looked up at her with a dumb, wistful appeal, and then down at the children, who in their turn looked up at what, no doubt, was in their eyes the embodiment of prosperity standing before them. There was no mistaking what that appeal meant. The answer was written upon every face in the whole group. Hunger was written there; worse—starvation; first, most clamorous of needs, not often, thank Heaven! seen so clearly, but when seen terrible—a vision from the deepest, most elemental depths, a cry to pity, full of ancient primordial horrors; heart-rending; appalling; impossible not to hasten to satisfy.
That this was the only possible answer to her question seemed to have immediately struck the kindly-natured Honor. For, without wasting further time, she ran to her own door, taking out a big key as she did so from her pocket. Another minute and she had rummaged out a half-eaten griddle- loaf, and was hacking big morsels off it with a blunt, well-nigh disabled dinner-knife.
Manners, however, had to be observed, let the need for haste be never so great, and no one was more observant of such delicacies than Honor O'Malley.
'Then, indeed, it is not very good bread to-day, so it is not,' she observed apologetically. 'It was last Tuesday week I would have wished to ask you to taste of it, Mrs. Daly. The barm did not rise rightly this time, whatever the reason was, still, after your walk you would, maybe, eat a bit of it, and I would be much obliged to you, and the young children, too. But it is some cow's milk that they must have. Run, Grania, run quick and fetch some out of the big mether, it is on the top shelf, out of the way of the cat. It is good cow's milk, Mrs. Daly, though it has been skimmed once; I skim it now in the morning, after Grania has had her breakfast. The child grows so fast it is the best milk she must have, but it is not at all bad milk, only skimmed once, or I would not offer it you, no, indeed, I would not, Mrs. Daly, ma 'am'
But the poor visitor was past responding to any such friendly efforts to shield her self-respect. She tried to thank her entertainer, but the tears came too fast, and fairly choked her. One after another they gathered and ran down her thin white cheeks, fresh tears continually brimming her poor eyes, once a brilliant blue—not a common colour in the west of Ireland—and which still, though their brightness had waned, seemed all too blue and too brilliant for the poor faded face they shone out of.
'Och, then! Och, then! Och, then!' Honor O'Malley said in a gentle tone, at once soothing and remonstrating. 'Och, then, Mrs. Daly, will you please give me the baby for a minute, ma'am? for it is not lucky, they say, to cry over such a young child. The sidh—God forgive me for naming such a wicked, heathen word!—the sidh, old people say, do be looking about, and if they see tears drop on a baby it is they will get it for themselves, so they will—God stand between us and all such work this night, amen! Well, Phelim sonny, and what ails you? Is it the milk that is sour? Then it is not very sour it can be, for it was only milked the morning before last. Grania, fetch some sugar and put it in the child's milk. Bless me, Mrs. Daly, but he does grow, that child Phelim! only look at the legs of him!'
The boy she was addressing was the eldest of the pitiful little group, a wistful-faced, shadowy creature of about five, His eyes were blue, like his mother's, though of a paler shade and more prominent. Big, startled eyes they were—the eyes of a child that sees phantoms in the night, that starts in its sleep and cries out, it knows not why or about what. With those big eyes fixed full upon her face he was staring hard at Grania O'Malley, the pannikin of milk which had been put into his hands remaining untasted in the intensity of his contemplation.
'Indeed and indeed it is too good you are to them, Honor O'Malley—too good entirely!' poor Mrs. Daly managed to say, finding her voice at last, though still speaking through the sobs which choked her. 'But it is yourself knows where to look for the blessing so it is! And may God shield you and keep you in health and sickness, in joy and sorrow, in this world and in the world to come—yes, indeed, and beyond it too, if need be, amen! It is ashamed I am, sorry and ashamed, to be troubling you, and you not well yourself. But Shan, you see it is very bad times Shan has had lately. There is no work at all to do, he says, not anywhere on Inishmaan, no, nor upon Aranmore even. There was some fish he was to bring in this afternoon, but he has not come back yet, and the evening it is late, and if he did catch the fish itself, it is not young children that can eat fish alone, so it is not. And me so weak still, it is but little I can do; for it is not, you know, till next Friday will be three weeks that—'
She stopped and looked bashfully down at the poor little bundle in her neighbour's arms. Though this was her fourth child she had a feeling of delicacy about alluding to the fact of its birth which would have seemed not merely inconceivable, but monstrous to a woman of another race and breeding. Honor, however, knew as much, or more, about the matter than she did herself.. She had been with her at the time, although old Mrs. Flanaghan, Phil Flanaghan's mother, was the chief official in command on the occasion. It was Honor, however, who had baptised the baby—this poor little white-faced object then in her arms, whose birth and death had seemed likely to be contemporaneous. It was an office for which she was in great demand on Inishmaan, where, as explained, there was no priest, and where her peculiar piety made her seem to her neighbours specially fitted for such semi-sacerdotal duties. Of course such a baptism was only meant as, a preliminary, to serve till the more regular sacrament could be bestowed, but, from the difficulties of transport, it often happened that weeks and months passed before any other could be given; nay, not infrequently, the poor little pilgrim had found its way to the last haven for all such pilgrims, near to the old church of Cill-Cananach, unguarded from future perils by any more regular rite.
Looking down at the small waxen face upturned in her lap, Honor O'Malley felt that such a consummation was not in this case far off. She did not say to herself that it was so much the better, for that would have been a sin, but her thoughts certainly ran unconsciously in that direction as, having given it back to its mother, she bustled to and fro in the cabin, putting together all the available scraps of food she could find; which done, she tied them into a bundle and deposited the bundle in the passive arms of little Phelim, who accepted it from her with the same dim, wondering stare of astonishment in his pale china-blue eyes—a stare with which every event, good or ill, seemed alike to be received by him. Five years' experience of a very troublesome world had evidently not yet accustomed him to any of its peculiar ways or vicissitudes.

Lowick Village Store is open for business thanks to the community, which pitched in to help the clean up effort after the shop was hit by fire.
Shop owner Lynsey Pitman, who lives on the premises with her two children, returned to the store on December 10 to find the dishwasher alight.
"Luckily for us we were out when it happened and nobody was hurt," she said.
But the fire struck a devastating blow to the business. "The fire damage was limited but the whole shop was smoke damaged and all stock had to be disposed off," Lynsey explained.
"It couldn't have happened at a worse time. We had Christmas hampers made up that had been ordered and paid for. They were destroyed and we couldn't replace them as deliveries are only once a fortnight over the Christmas period."
While the shop building was out of action, Lynsey ran a make-shift store from her living room, then a neighbours caravan, selling papers and supplies bought in from Berwick.
"There's a lot of elderly people in the village who rely on us being here," she explained. "As much as giving up would have been easier, we knew we had to carry on.
"People could not have been more kind, generous and understanding. Everyone rallied round. We were inundated with offers of help and had an amazing team of people in to clean for two days."
The shop reopened eight days later, and the coffee shop is due to be up and running again by the end of the month.
"Christmas has been a complete wash out for us and we are desperate to get things back the way they were, and to spread the word to say we are still here," Lynsey said. "We also want to say a huge thank you to all our loyal customers, and those who helped us get back on our feet."
Lynsey has been running Lowick Village Store for the last two and a half years.
In November her team was awarded a certificate from the Rotary Club for their efforts, and at the beginning of December the store received the Lowick Community Award, voted for by members of the public.

City businessman Pete Sides is not happy about the proposed site of a senior citizen housing complex.
Sides, owner of Robert M. Sides Family Music Center at 201 Mulberry St., voiced his concerns Monday about the project to the Williamsport Planning Commission.
Sides said he is not opposed to senior housing but does not want it blocking the view of retail stores and questioned the project's impact on traffic density.
After listening to Sides, the commission recommended City Council grant a conditional-use to the apartment developer, FORTUS Group, of Fort Wayne, Ind.
Commission Chairman Marvin Staiman gave Sides the opportunity to express his views but suggested he should have given them to the council.
"We're an advisory board," Staiman said.
"I don't think it's a good decision to put this in prime retail space," Sides said.
The project would be built on a 45-space parking lot at Mulberry and Via Bella, with parking to be on what now is an adjacent lawn, according to site plans.
Kevin Hogan, director of development for FORTUS, said the design of the complex will have minimal impact on traffic and reminded Sides it was senior citizen housing, not public housing.
John Grado, city engineer and director of community and economic development, said the site can be accessed off Via Bella. There will be no left turns across Via Bella, according to Grado, but there will be access from State and Canal streets, he said.
"It's consistent with the development plans," said Carolyn Bullock, vice president of the commission, following the meeting. She, however, indicated she wants to learn more about the senior housing project unrelated to conditional use of the property.
The city has a sales agreement with the developer for $250,000. The construction of the building is dependent upon the developer receiving notice of award of tax credits through the Pennsylvania Finance Housing Agency.
It is estimated to cost $6 million to build and the developer should know whether it will be receiving the credits by March, Hogan said.
Other recommendations passed by the commission:
* A certificate of appropriateness to Matthew Schauer to add two aluminum doors at an Irish pub and restaurant under construction at West Fourth and William streets.
* A subdivision for Robert Matz at 427 W. Fourth St. Matz has two properties, one he lives in and the other his relatives live in at this site, said Gary Knarr, zoning officer.
* Land development for JDS Partnership at Penn Street and Birkle Court. The land development approval is to develop two parking lots for Steinbacher Law Firm use, Knarr said.
* Land development for Nittany Oil Geo Tech, 2300 W. Fourth St. The company asked for lot consolidation and land development. The business is upgrading for commercial purposes.

Parenting for Unmarried Couples FAQ
When unmarried parents separate, how does the breakup affect parenting rights and responsibilities?
8. When unmarried parents separate, how does the breakup affect parenting rights and responsibilities?
If both partners are legal parents of the child -- either because they are both biological parents, because they have jointly adopted, or because a nonbiological parent has obtained a legally valid second-parent adoption -- both parents usually have an equal right to custody of the child. This means that neither parent may deprive the other of physical custody or visitation unless a judge makes an order granting sole custody to one parent. If a court does grant one parent physical custody, the other parent is usually entitled to visitation and is next in line to exercise physical custody rights if the custodial parent becomes unable to care for the child.
Of course, the right to be considered a full legal parent of a child can be lost if a parent fails to exercise parental responsibilities. For example, all legal parents have a duty to support their children, whether or not they have physical custody of them. The key is that, if you are not the parent with custody, you must stay involved with your child -- visiting and providing support -- to the best of your ability.
Legal parents can learn more about custody, visitation, and child support laws by visiting the Child Custody, Child Support & Visitation area of Nolo's website.
If a partner is not a legal parent of the child, the partner may not have any legal rights to parent or even visit the child after a break-up. Ideally, if a partner wants to continue to be part of the child's life, both members of the couple will make and honor a workable agreement about how each will continue to parent, including how they will handle visitation and support.
If separating partners can't reach an agreement and one of them wants to petition a court for visitation, the outcome will depend on state law. Not long ago, almost all states would have denied a nonlegal parent any right to see the child of a former partner, no matter how close the parent had been to the child while they were living in the same house, but this rule is changing as many state courts recognize that the best interests of the child may make visitation with a nonlegal parent desirable. Because this area of the law is in constant flux, you'll want to research your state's law or visit a good family law attorney for guidance.

Angela Arenivar won the Amarillo Globe-News/West Texas A&M University 51st Regional Spelling Bee for the second year in a row on Saturday.
The 14-year-old Perryton student spelled "crocodilian" correctly to secure a spot in the Scrips Howard National Spelling Bee in Washington, D.C., on May 30 through June 5.
"It feels fabulous," Arenivar said. "Nothing in that huge dictionary could describe how I feel."
Arenivar beat Neelima Marupudi, an 11-year-old from Amarillo, after 48 rounds of competition.
Arenivar used several methods to prepare for the competition. Some of the study methods were to write the words and also pronounce them into a tape recorder and play them back, she said.
She said she studied about two hours every other day, and four to five hours on the weekends and during spring break.
Her plan of attack now is to study the dictionary to make sure she is a contender in Washington, D.C.
Some confusion took place during the bee after one of the spellers was taken out for missing the word "pica." When the judges discovered it also could be spelled" pika," they reinstated the speller and several of the contestants who followed.
Along with two round-trip airline tickets to Washington, D.C., and an expense check from the Globe-News, Arenivar received two dictionaries from Merriam-Webster and Anderson Merchandisers; computer software; a $100 savings bond given by Jay Sugerman in memory of his father, Samuel Louis Sugarman; an individual plaque; a gift certificate from Scripps Howard; two Bee Week souvenir T-shirts from 1998 National Bee; and a first place ribbon.
Prizes ranging from a $200 savings bond to computer software were awarded to the final six contestants who remained in the bee.
