on May 9, 2013 - 1:24 AM
The Buffalo Board of Education voted, 6-2, Wednesday to renew the charter of Enterprise Charter School for only a year, despite objections by school leaders who wanted a longer renewal period.
Enterprise Charter leaders had requested that the board delay its scheduled vote Monday to approve the one-year renewal plan, and board members Louis J. Petrucci and Jason M. McCarthy said they were inclined to honor that request.
However, board members Ralph R. Hernandez and Rosalyn L. Taylor stated that there was no reason to delay approval because it was clear that the state Board of Regents would not consider anything other than a one-year renewal for the school.
"The Board of Regents made it clear that they will only allow a one-year extension," Hernandez said.
The School Board previously submitted applications to the state to renew the charter for Enterprise by three years. When that was rejected, the board asked for a two-year charter, which also was rejected.
The board ultimately voted to approve a charter for Enterprise that will keep it operating through the 2013-14 school year. All board members except Petrucci and McCarthy voted in favor.
In related charter school matters, Community Charter School was granted a temporary restraining order Friday by State Supreme Court Justice John A. Michalek preventing the state from shutting down the school at the end of this academic year.
The school received word last month that it would not receive a renewal of its charter because of its poor and declining performance. School leaders said they would fight the decision by the Board of Regents.
Finally, developer Carl P. Paladino spoke before the School Board following his landslide victory the night before in the election for the Park District seat. "I think the people of the city, in general, and especially the people of the Park District, sent out a very clear message to this board, the administration of this school system, that they want leadership," he said.
Paladino admonished the superintendent and the board to take no action on the hiring, appointment or contract extension of any senior administrators until the new board is seated in July. He reiterated his demand that Superintendent Pamela C. Brown and board President Mary Ruth Kapsiak be investigated and required to resign for allegedly trying to "defraud" the state.
Paladino has repeatedly accused district leaders of deliberately violating the terms of the teacher-evaluation agreement between the district and the state by making and sanctioning an agreement with the Buffalo Teachers Federation not to use two years of evaluations as grounds to fire any teacher.
"There was no intent to commit fraud," Brown responded.
She restated that the district will no longer adhere to the agreement with the union.

I've always loved the look of a Venetian Carnival, which of course was a masked ball for adults who loved to dress up in costumes.
Most modern day fancy dress balls take their inspiration from them. So it will be fun to hear what Chamber Music Charleston has up its sleeve Saturday when members present an evening with the second installment of the "Ovation Concert Series."
Chamber Music Charleston flutist Regina Helcher Yost and bassoonist Sandra Nikolajevs will be featured in a program that includes Paul-Agricole "Carnival of Venice" for flute and strings, Antonin Vivaldi's "Concerto in e minor for Bassoon and Strings" and Franz Joseph's Haydn's "Emperor" string quartet.
CMC's concerts at Memminger Auditorium have become a highlight of the season, with exceptional music paired with food, wine and decor to create a unique social event. Guests choose table seating directly in front of the stage (with the option to purchase a Bistro Box filled with culinary delicacies) or theater seating.
Wine comes complimentary with table seating and is also available to purchase for theater seating.
Earlier in the day, the group will present one of its popular kids' concerts at 1 p.m. where younger audiences will be introduced to members of a string quartet, which will recount the history of the Carnival of Venice.
The 45-minute concert will include sing-along songs and a reading of "Bravo, Zan Angelo," a commedia dell'arte tale brought to life through story, pictures and music.
That sounds like fun no matter what your age.
Doors for the evening concert open at 6:30 p.m. and the concert begins at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $5-$40 and are available online at chambermusiccharleston.org or by calling (843)763-4941.
New venue for S'ville Artist Guild
The Summerville Artist Guild will be having their annual judged show at the North Charleston Convention Center City Gallery. This is their largest show with 110 paintings. A few of the recognizeable names are Diane Watkins, Yvonne Rousseau, Sherri Bardsley, and Jane Dalton just name several prominent Guild members.
The awards reception will be 5-7 p.m. March 6. The works will be on view from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. March 1-29. Parking and admissions are free.
Call for craft artists in North Charleston
It's the time to look for venues to show art this spring, and fine craft artists from across the state are invited to participate in the 13th annual South Carolina Palmetto Hands Juried Fine Craft Competition and Exhibition. This fine craft competition and exhibition, allows artists juried into the show to compete for $6,500 in cash prizes.
Organized and presented by the City of North Charleston Cultural Arts Department, this unique exhibition offers fine craft artists from across South Carolina the opportunity to exhibit their inspiring objects in the media of clay, fiber, glass, metal, wood, and three-dimensional mixed media.
And unlike the Piccolo Spoleto crafts festival, this one is indoors in a climate-controlled environment so some of the more delicate crafts can be protected from the elements.
The exhibition is presented as a component of the annual North Charleston Arts Festival, to be held May 2-10, 2014 at the Charleston Area Convention Center, located at 5001 Coliseum Dr. in North Charleston. A free public reception and announcement of awards will be held at the Convention Center on May 2.
The application is only available online and may be accessed via the link at NorthCharlestonArtsFest.com/apply. Deadline for submissions is March 14.
Artists guild seeks scholarship applicants
The Mount Pleasant Artists Guild is seeking applicants for a scholarship worth up to $1,500 for a qualified high school senior who lives east of the Cooper River.
Applicants should be seeking an undergraduate degree in an art-related field beginning this fall and reside in East Cooper. It doesn't matter where applicants attend high school. East Cooper includes Mount Pleasant, Awendaw, McClellanville, Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island and Daniel Island.
The deadline to apply is March 21, and judges reserve the right to split the $1,500 award.
Applications will be available at East Cooper high schools, on the guild's website or by contacting the guild scholarship chair at (803) 606-2029. For information, go to www.mtpleasantartistsguild.com.

A former Wailuku Main Street Association board chairman said he felt "vindicated" Wednesday after the release of a scathing state attorney general's report confirmed the organization had failed to produce pertinent information to its directors, as he originally alleged.
Former board Chairman Sam Clark said he and former board member Bryan Sarasin have been vindicated after being "chastised" by current nonprofit board Chairman Tom Cannon and Executive Director Jocelyn Perreira for allegedly working against the organization, after he and Sarasin complained publicly that key operations and finance information had been withheld from board members.
"We were trying to do our legal obligation of a board to do the oversight required, and we weren't allowed to do that. It was very frustrating," Clark said Wednesday.

Sarasin said he was reserving comment on the matter "until it's settled."
Calls and an email to some former and current board members were not returned Wednesday.
The attorney general's report said its findings were "preliminary" because, as of the date of the letter sent to the nonprofit board's attorney, the organization had failed to produce additional information as requested by the attorney general.
The report cited nepotism in hiring, lobbying in violation of its county grant contract, conflicts of interest, little evidence of program services, the board having little control over its executive director and a "terribly confused" structure of governance.
Wailuku Main Street Association has received more than $2.2 million in grants from the county since 2002.
On Wednesday, Maui County Council Member Don Couch called the report "very harsh" and said "it opened my eyes quite a bit."
Couch said that, with his experience of having served on a nonprofit board, he knows "the board is essentially the manager of the (executive director)" and that proxy voting is not allowed, something that is alleged in the attorney general report against WMSA.
In deliberations for the current fiscal 2013 budget, the County Council upheld Mayor Alan Arakawa's request to set aside $243,000 that would have been allocated to WMSA. The mayor said the move to set aside the money for small-town planning was not for or against WMSA but was done as a precaution while the state investigated the organization.
"I'm glad we held the money to the side," said Couch. "I'm interested in hearing (WMSA's) response.
"There's more than two sides to every story, I want to hear them all first," he added.
In light of the issues facing WMSA, the Maui Non-Profit Directors Association has advice for other nonprofits.
Association President Susie Thieman said that it's important that board members have training, not just when they are new, but on a regular basis.
"The board has to know what its responsibilities are," Thieman said, while commenting generally on how nonprofit organizations function.
She added that the highest-paid staff member of an organization, whether it be an executive director or a CEO, "works at the pleasure of the board."
Thieman said board members should monitor their nonprofit's income and expenses so they know where their donors' money is going. This information can be found online, Thieman added.
Thieman, who is also the interim executive director of the nonprofit Lokahi Pacific said even though her nonprofit's board meets once a month, she always wants to let them know what's going on.
"I think one of the important things I do is that weekly update to my board members," she said. "(So) when they walk in a board meeting, they don't say, 'What is this all about?' "
The 70-member association does not include WMSA, Thieman said.
The Maui News, through a Freedom of Information Act Request, obtained the state attorney general's report on WMSA from the Maui County Planning Department on Tuesday.
The report from the state Attorney General's Tax & Charities Division detailed the division's several-month inquiry into the operations and governance of WMSA.
The state attorney general's office said in the report that the county was sent the information because it provides the nonprofit most of its grant income and because matters discussed in the report "are relevant" in determining compliance with past county grant agreements.
In an email responding to the report Tuesday, Cannon said the board had not had an opportunity to thoroughly review and discuss the report.
But added that an "initial review is in nearly complete disagreement with its analysis and conclusions."
Cannon also noted that some of the "remedial measures" proposed in the report have already been done.
On Wednesday, Cannon did not return phone or email messages that asked what measures have been completed along with board minutes that document the implementation of those measures.
As part of those remedial measures, the report says Perreira should be terminated, which Cannon said on Tuesday is a "moot" point because the board had been forced to temporarily lay her off, which will be effective soon, due to a lack of sufficient funds. A client has not paid the organization for work performed, Cannon said.
The report also asks WMSA to review and revamp some of its bylaws and not engage in proxy voting.
On Wednesday, Wailuku property owner Jonathan Starr, whose tenants include WMSA along Main Street, said that last week furniture and files were moved out of the organization's office.
"It looks like it's empty," Starr, a former board member, said of the offices.
A Maui News staff member witnessed what appeared to be a WMSA board meeting at the office Wednesday afternoon.
Starr said WMSA has a lease with him and has been a good tenant.
Cannon was asked in an email Wednesday about the status of the office. He did not respond.

In brief: Government oversight of tour bus industry faulted
Government oversight of tour bus industry faulted
WASHINGTON -- Federal accident investigators called Thursday for a probe of the government agency charged with ensuring the safety of commercial vehicles, saying its own look into four tour-bus and truck crashes that killed 25 people raises "serious questions" about how well the agency is doing its job.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration needs to crack down on bad actors in the commercial-vehicle industry "before crashes occur, not just after high visibility events," said Deborah Hersman, chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board.
NTSB's look at deadly crashes in California, Oregon, Kentucky and Tennessee over the past year found serious weaknesses in oversight. The NTSB said that in each case, the motor carrier safety agency identified problems and "red flags," but didn't take action until after the crashes.
Sightings reported of fiery streak across California sky
LOS ANGELES -- A fireball that lit up the night sky and social media was likely a meteor streaking across the sky, forecasters said.
Southern Californians from Santa Barbara to San Diego reported seeing bright lights Wednesday night.
The National Weather Service said the sightings that flowed in about 8 p.m. Wednesday were most likely associated with the South Taurids meteor shower that has been especially active in early November. Astronomers said the Taurids don't bring a high percentage of extremely bright meteors that look like fireballs.
The American Meteor Society received more than 150 reports from witnesses. The bright flash was visible primarily from Southern California, but people in Arizona, Nevada and Utah also reported seeing the light show.
Indictment: N.Y. boat pilot drunk in deadly crash
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. -- The powerboat pilot involved in a Hudson River crash that killed a bride-to-be and her fiance's best man was drunk at the time, according to an indictment.
Defense lawyers said poor lighting on a barge, not intoxication, caused the crash.
Rockland County District Attorney Thomas Zugibe announced the indictment against Jojo John, 35, of Nyack, who was among six people on the 19-foot Stingray when it crashed into a construction barge on the night of July 26. The crash occurred just south of the Tappan Zee Bridge off Piermont, north of New York City.
The crash threw two occupants, Lindsey Stewart, of Piermont, and Mark Lennon, of Pearl River, both 30, into the river, where both drowned. John and three others, including the groom-to-be, were injured. Stewart's wedding was two weeks away.
Among the 18 charges are vehicular manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide, vehicular assault and operating a vessel under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Father of Palin's grandson files petition for custody
JUNEAU, Alaska -- The father of Bristol Palin's son is seeking at least equal custody.
Levi Johnston filed a petition for custody in October, saying he wants 4-year-old Tripp to be in his mother's and father's lives equally.
The couple had agreed in 2010 that Palin would have primary physical custody and the two would share legal custody, according to Thomas Van Flein, Palin's attorney at that time. Johnston was given visitation and had agreed to pay child support.
Palin's current attorney, John Tiemessen, said that as of Oct. 15, the Child Support Services Division reported that Johnston owed about $66,000 in back support.
Palin and Johnston were thrust into the national spotlight as expectant, unwed teenagers in 2008, when Palin's mother, Sarah Palin, was tapped as the Republican vice presidential candidate.Johnston and Bristol Palin had an on-off relationship before splitting for good. He has since married and has a daughter.

To the Editor As physicians involved in the Pennsylvania Chronic Care Initiative (PACCI), a medical home pilot, we are concerned that the evaluation of the first phase had many inadequacies that steered Dr Friedberg and colleagues1 to the wrong conclusions. These conclusions have the potential to impede further payment reform and block continued redesign of primary care practices.
This study examined data from the first 3 years of the initiative, a time frame that is too short to detect changes resulting from the intervention. Phase 1 of this program was devoted to building the infrastructure and culture to earn National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) recognition and become a true medical home; reduction in costs of care was not a goal. In phase 2, pilot practices added case management and other quality interventions to the PCMH model. Our practice is just starting to observe reductions in emergency department visits, hospitalizations (including reductions in 30-day readmissions), and costs of care attributable to PCMH changes and the PACCI.

In 1962 Joseph DiNicola, a 25-year-old ex-choirboy from Passaic, N.J., seemed destined for a golden future. Millions of fans knew him as Joey Dee, the baby-face singer whose Starliters helped make the twist an international dance craze. The Beatles opened for him in Sweden. When he needed a backup guitarist, he hired Jimi Hendrix. His performances at New York City's Peppermint Lounge attracted such luminaries as Judy Garland, Greta Garbo and John Wayne.
Then, just two years later, Dee's career took another sort of twist. The British rock invasion pulled the plug on his spotlight, and Joey Dee became Joey Who's That? Frugal and cautious, Dee managed to build a new life selling gold and diamonds in Florida. Then, in the early '80s, he found himself back onstage singing "Peppermint Twist" for aging baby boomers eager to relive their glory days listening to Dee and to fellow vintage rockers like Chubby Checker and Chuck Berry.
Yet even as Dee was enjoying his own modest revival, he was troubled by tales of old pals who hadn't bounced back. Florence Ballard of the Supremes had tried to sue Motown for back royalties, but was living on welfare when she died at age 32 in 1976. Jackie Wilson, Dee's onetime mentor, suffered an apparent heart attack that put him into a coma in 1975 and later died penniless. Again and again, Dee heard stories about rock pioneers who had plummeted from the top of the charts to obscurity, poverty, alcoholism or an early grave. "I'm a rock-and-roll survivor," says Dee, now 52. "But a lot of people didn't survive."
Thus began Dee's dream of helping the countless others in the back—and the front—of the bands. In 1987 he created the Foundation for the Love of Rock 'n' Roll and set out to raise $20 million for a retirement community, possibly on the west coast of Florida, and for a health insurance plan for needy musicians. The community Dee envisions will include a rock-and-roll museum, a performing arts center and individual living units open to any rocker who ever made the Billboard charts. Dee's foundation—now 151 members strong with a board that includes Frankie Avalon, Fabian and Wolfman Jack—has raised only $100,000 to date. But he says he expects big profits from an upcoming oldies album.
If, in fact, Dee's vision ever becomes a reality, it would represent a measure of justice after decades of neglect for some old rockers. "Rock and roll was a naive, mom-and-pop operation in the early days," says Richard Nader, a promoter of rock revival shows. "Records were often cut in 30 minutes, in somebody's basement, and the artists knew nothing about royalties." Teenage stars unknowingly signed away rights to their songs; record executives routinely sold the rights to groups' names, so original members could no longer use them to perform or record. Today, though pre-1970s music is a booming industry, original artists see few of the profits. "We've been in and out of lawsuits," says former Chords vocalist Jimmy Keyes, who claims he has received only minimal royalties for the Chords' 1954 hit "Sh-Boom." "But we still haven't been able to come up with much."
Dee, who is married with six kids and recently moved from New York to Florida, performs in about 200 shows a year with his new group—also called the Star-liters. For now, his life seems secure. But another shift in musical trends could change that, and he, like the seven onetime stars whose stories appear on the following pages, could find himself in serious need. Someday, if Dee should succeed in his mission, neither he nor any other old rocker will ever fall again without a safety net. "We've been hit hard," says Bo Diddley, who is on the board of Dee's foundation and recently released his first album in years. "If I ever get down and out, it's guaranteed I'll be there at Joey's retirement home."
As he proudly displays his Lincoln Town Car, Dee Clark, 51, still exudes a trace of the charisma that helped make his 1961 single "Raindrops" a No. 2 hit. But his shiny new toy can't hide the beating he has taken from life. He parks the Lincoln outside the rundown Lone Oak Motel in Toccoa, Ga., where he survives on the kindness of owner Irene Roberts. She hasn't demanded the $38.14 weekly rent since 1987, when Clark had a stroke and two heart attacks, complicated by diabetes. Though he had been living well enough off $25,000 a year in royalties and fees from a few gigs, Clark suddenly found himself destitute. Lacking health insurance, he fell deeply in debt to the hospital and rehabilitation center that helped him recover from partial paralysis.
Eventually two deejays held a benefit to help pay Clark's bills, the hospital forgave the remaining debt, and the onetime Vee Jay Records recording star saw his life improve, temporarily. He began working out at a local gym, regained some of his mobility and joined in a couple of benefit performances for Joey Dee's foundation. Convinced that he was on the comeback trail, he bought his new car in February 1988, only to find that his confidence was a bit premature. "Agencies are scared to book me," he explains, "for fear that I'll pass away."
Lately, Clark has at least been managing to keep out of hock. Bill Pinkney of the Drifters paid him $1,000 a week to tour with the group for five weeks, and royalty payments for his old songs go directly to the automobile credit agency. He hopes to make "the big splash" one more time, but if it doesn't work out, he wouldn't mind a piece of Joey Dee's dream. "A retirement home for old rockers," he says, mulling it over. "If I had to go, I'd love it. I'd run into friends. We could tell old stories, play checkers and show off."
"The industry is full of people who were famous for 15 minutes, like me," says Tommy Sands, 51. "All this happened to us at an early age, and then it was, 'What do you do with the rest of your life?' "
Not many started earlier than Sands. Only 14 years old when he first toured the South with an unknown young singer named Elvis Presley, Sands became a star at 19 after appearing in an NBC movie, The Singin'Idol, in which he played a rock and roller. After that, his concerts sold out, and his next six albums produced 11 hit singles. He made 10 more movies—including Babes in Toyland' and Ensign Pulver—and received up to 30,000 fan letters a week. Then, in 1962, his career began to slip; three years later, his five-year marriage to Nancy Sinatra ended. "I got divorced, and nobody wanted me," he says. "My record sales dropped, and my career was over."
Sands moved to Hawaii, where he anesthetized himself with LSD, uppers, downers—virtually any mind-blowing drug he could buy. By the mid-'70s he finally went straight, got a degree in music and cinema at the University of Hawaii and remarried. Though he sometimes played free concerts, he couldn't find paid engagements. His frustration and depression took their toll on the second marriage, which produced one daughter, Jessica, now 11. Sands divorced again and recently, still hoping to revive his career, moved to Florida.
Now settled in Kissimmee, 20 miles from Orlando, Sands is living off investments, wants to publish his autobiography and hopes to cut his first record in more than 25 years. Meanwhile, he picks up a little change singing his old hits on Mondays—"the worst night of the week"—at Little Darlin's, a local nostalgia club. "Nobody in Hollywood even knows my name," says Sands, who has tinted his gray hair black. "I want to work so bad I can't stand it. I want to work till I die."
Most mornings at 7, a nearly toothless man in greasy, torn clothes leaves a Pomona, Calif., A-frame to search for empty bottles in garbage cans. "I pick 'em up and sell 'em," says Thurston Harris, 58, who no longer has the energy to hold down jobs as a mechanic and construction worker. "Sometimes you make enough to get by," he says. "Sometimes you don't. I manage. Just some days I don't eat."
Downing his third can of malt liquor in six hours, Harris reminisces about a time when his life held more promise. A childhood star on the Indianapolis gospel circuit, he later recorded a string of rhythm-and-blues hits with the Five Royales and the Lamplighters. After singing his 1957 solo hit, "Little Bitty Pretty One," on The Ed Sullivan Show and American Bandstand, he toured with Buddy Holly, Fats Domino and the Everly Brothers. Then his luck changed. "I didn't get nothin'," he says bitterly about a deal with now-defunct Aladdin Records, which provided no royalties. "Nothin', you hear? Still not. They caught me when I was young and dumb and took advantage of me."
When his discouragement turned to depression, Harris went homeless and for 20 years refused even the sporadic recording offers he received. He drifted among friends and family until his sister finally took him in. "I'm lucky, I guess," says Harris, who shares a house with his sister's children and grandchildren. "I could be sleeping in cars and eating air like I used to when I quit music." He is not impressed by contemporary musical styles. "I can't stand the hollering," he says. "I mean, if I'm gonna ask a woman do she love me, I ain't gonna scream it at the top of my lungs! I'm gonna sing it sweet."
Harris's dream is to do just that. "I can still sing, and I never stopped writing," he says. "All I need is a small break." Then, in a voice seasoned by malt liquor and Lucky Strikes, he launches into "Head of Lettuce," a wry new number he has composed about how drink turns a man's head into that popular leafy vegetable. Smiling, he says proudly, "I think it's gonna be a hit."
James "Pookie" Hudson knows about hard work. For the past two years he has labored up to 16 hours a day packing milk at a Springfield, Va., dairy. In years gone by he has built boxcars, counted beads at Macy's, driven a bus, parked cars, cleaned clothes. All this was after Hudson, 55, started off by writing 200 pop tunes, among them such R&B classics as "Baby, It's You" and "Goodnight, Sweetheart, Goodnight," sung with his doo-wop group, the Spaniels.
By Hudson's reckoning, the same people who first found him in a Gary, Ind., housing project and made him an Apollo Theater headliner share credit for his humble employment today. Black record-store owner and deejay Vivian Carter was starting her own label, Vee Jay Records, and was so impressed by Hudson and the singing group he formed with four high school classmates that she gave them a contract before they graduated. Named the Spaniels because a friend thought they sounded like dogs, the group had a Top 5 R&B hit in 1954 with their third single, "Goodnight, Sweetheart, Goodnight." Money proved harder to come by. Hudson says Carter gave him one $800 check for writing "Goodnight." After that, he says, the Spaniels were paid almost nothing, except when they were touring and earned up to $150 apiece per week—while paying their traveling expenses themselves. "They treated us like sons," says Hudson, "so we thought they were going to take care of us. But they didn't. They always told us we owed them for the recording, and for cars and things. They kept us in debt."
Too poor at 20 to pay $80 a week child support when he and his teenage bride separated, Hudson tried to sell one of his songs and says he was tricked into selling all his songwriting rights for $50. Other royalties became unobtainable in 1967, when Vee Jay went bankrupt and sold the master tapes of the old Spaniels' records. In 1978 Hudson finally was awarded rights to the songs he wrote, which have so far brought in $60,000. But the Spaniels still earn no performance fees when, for example, their version of "Goodnight, Sweetheart, Goodnight" was used in the 1987 movie Three Men and a Baby.
Hudson admits he brought some of his financial problems on himself. Married three times, with six legitimate children and two out of wedlock, he spent years switching jobs and cities as he drank his cares away. "We can't blame everything on everybody else," he says of himself and fellow rockers. "A lot of these troubles we could have avoided if we'd left the whiskey and the women alone."
Hudson now lives by himself in a two-bedroom apartment in Bailey's Crossroads, Va. He quit hard liquor two years ago, shortly before he started at the dairy, and hopes to stay in his $13-an-hour job for eight more years so he can qualify for retirement benefits. As for the possibility of growing old in Joey Dee's retirement community, he says, "I've got nothing against it. But I'm doing my best not to need it."
Twenty-six years ago, Richard Fifield's sky-blue eyes used to scan the Colorado horizon from a white Volvo P1800 with a sporty red interior. In those days Fifield lived well. His band, the Astronauts, was prospering, thanks to an instrumental called "Baja" that was a top international hit. Hugely popular in Japan, the Astronauts started a 1965 tour at the Tokyo airport amid a swarm of media and 8,000 screaming fans.
Today Fifield, 48, looks back at the world in the mirror of a battered brown 1977 Dodge van, his full-time home during nonwinter months. (When the cold comes, he rents an apartment.) Doing odd jobs around Boulder and hoping to make it big with his new band, the Clams, he is philosophical about his past fame. "Hell, it's a crap shoot," he says. "I fell into it."
In 1963, two years after Fifield became the Astronauts' lead singer, RCA persuaded the band to play surfer music, he says, because "we fit the part: blond and clean-cut." The Astronauts released eight U.S. albums; then in 1968 two band members were drafted, and the group fell apart. With little success, Fifield tried to form his own band, then hung up his guitar for 10 years. He's been collecting small royalty checks ever since. "RCA treats you square," he says. "I assumed that when the contract was up, I was up. I didn't know you get paid for the rest of your life."
Though Fifield's former bandmate Dennis Lindsey has struggled for years with alcohol and drug addiction, other group members have led productive post-Astronaut lives. Jim Gallagher runs a printing business; until recently, Stormy Patterson installed kitchen tiles, and Bob Demmon teaches high school history. As he tries for a musical comeback, Fifield faces a rocky future. He has no retirement fund, savings or insurance. But, he says, "the whole idea of retirement is something I don't think about—maybe I'll change my mind when I'm 65." As for Dee's project, "I think it's a great thing—I'm sure there would be some good jamming—a live band every weekend."
Sitting still as a statue in a blue polyester three-piece suit, Ernie K-Doe shows the ravages of a 17-year affair with the bottle. His half-closed, bloodshot eyes stare aimlessly; his slurred sentences trail off, to be completed by his manager, Milton Batiste.
Three years ago, Batiste found K-Doe wandering drunk in New Orleans and decided to help. It hasn't been easy. When Batiste got him bookings in jazz and soul festivals, K-Doe sometimes stood up and rambled incoherently. "I told him," says Batiste," 'you are not Jesse Jackson. The people don't want to hear you preach. They want to hear you sing.' "
That's what K-Doe, 53, did so well in the early '60s with exuberant rhythm-and-blues hits like "Mother-in-Law" and "T' ain't It the Truth." Though he had perfected his voice as a teenager with the Flamingoes, he was hindered by his eighth-grade education. He changed his last name from Kador to K-Doe—because he liked the way it looked—and went solo in 1955. "There was a whole lot of people who did me wrong and rubbed me wrong," he says. "Everybody else was ridin' around in a Mercedes-Benz and a Rolls-Royce, and Ernie K-Doe was ridin' around in nothin.' "
K-Doe never learned to do anything but sing. Earning no royalties, he has scraped by for the last 15 years on just a few hundred dollars a month in performance fees. Still, he hasn't given up hope. Divorced many years ago and living with a female friend in downtown New Orleans, he has cut back a bit on his drinking, with Batiste's help. Until recently he had a weekly music show on a local public radio station. "They loved me," he says. "Even the little children would call me up. I had fans." As for his singing, he says, "I don't want to sound like I'm braggin', but right now I'm at my peak. Just turn me loose and let me go."
"You bet I was the typical rock star," says Ronnie Lane, who in the '70s caroused with Rod Stewart, Ron Wood and other fellow members of the British band the Faces. These days, resting his guitar on the arm of his wheelchair, Lane, 43, looks anything but typical. In 1985, after nine years of illness, he lost the use of his legs to multiple sclerosis. He weighs 110 lbs. and looks pale and fragile. But no disease could destroy his high spirits. "Right now," he says, smiling, "I'm happy as a pig in s—."
Lane ascribes his good cheer to two things: money and the love of a woman. He has always received regular royalties-enough to sustain him if not make him rich—and he was married last year to his third wife, Susan Gallegos, an electrologist. She helps him maneuver around their rented Austin, Texas, home and assists him with treatments that include Oriental herbal teas and acupuncture.
Lane underplays his often-harrowing battle with disease. After quitting the Faces in 1973, he formed another band, which failed, then retired to a farm in Wales, where he began experiencing double vision and extreme fatigue. Returning to his native London, he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and took up a frantic search for a cure, trying even snake-venom injections. Some friends backed away; others proved their mettle. In 1984 Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck took part in a benefit concert in Ronnie's honor for Action and Research for Multiple Sclerosis, a support group for MS victims. Soon afterward Lane moved to Houston to serve on the board of an American branch of ARMS. When the Houston office fell under investigation for misuse of funds in 1986, a disillusioned Lane severed his ties with the group and moved to Austin. Lane's future may hold dark days when he will need a refuge of the kind Joey Dee has in mind. For now, though, he is writing poetry and songs, performing periodically at clubs and making it on his own. "I've got my whole life to look forward to," he says. "Tell the people I'm doing okay."

ABOUT A MONTH after I became the interim chief executive officer of the School District of Philadelphia, in 2000, I was greeted with a damaging report by a subcommittee of the state House of Representatives detailing rampant violence in the city's schools.
Violence is a serious problem that the district "attempts to downplay, if not conceal," the report asserted.
Now, a decade later, the Inquirer has placed a spotlight on the district once again in an updated and detailed encore, a multipart series on school violence.

I used 5 percent cream which was plenty of fat and still good texture and taste. I added minced Black Forest ham what a hit!
This was an amazing recipe but I did find it rather rich. I suggest using half and half instead.
The only change I made to this receipt was to add some small pieces of ham and making rounds instead of wedges. The cream for brushing did nothing, as they did not brown on top and the bottoms were overcooked. Overall, they were hard and not particularly tasting considering I used Extra-Old Cheddar cheese. P.S. I have a brand-new oven, so don't understand the over-cooking on the bottoms. I might try this again and use an egg wash on top rather than the cream and cook at 350 instead of 400. Just mediocre.
This recipe is AMAZING!!! I made 16 scones and they didn't even last 24 hours in a house with 3 (relatively health-conscious) people. Literally could not resist them. A few little things we switched up- we added fresh rosemary and thyme from the garden which was a great addition. We also sprinkled a little garlic powder and extra shreds of cheddar to the tops of the scones before we baked them- excellent idea, definitely do that. Lastly we served them with Prociutto. I will absolutely be making these again- and hopefully I will have enough self control to leave a few for my family :)
I made these this morning for a change on Sunday breakfast. This did not fail. I loved this for so many reasons, it was fast to put together, while it baked I finished the rest of breakfast and it was just the right combination of cheese & chives. The texture was actually a cross between a scone and a biscuit. Hubby and son thought this was amazing and are thrilled that we have leftovers.
I used Kraft brand sharp cheddar with these. If I make them again, I will follow the other reviewer's advice and use a very high quality sharp cheddar, possibly even a smoked cheddar. I will also use less chives, because I felt they were a little overpowering. Finally I would add some cayenne and/or mustard powder for flavor.
I found the cooking time to be quite off and the flavour to be fairly drab. Disappointed considering the reviews. I really enjoy the ginger scones on this site much better!
I made these for the first time last night but I'm going to be making them regularly from this point forward. They are delicious. I used Emmantal and Gruyere (just because I had those two handy) and I didn't have any cream at home so regular milk was my substitute. I brushed the tops with some melted butter for the gloss on top. I brought them all into the office and they're already gone. Would be great with a bowl of carrot soup and arugula salad for dinner some night.
I've been making these scones for years and love them!! Today seemed a perfect day to make them . We are enjoying, along with our scones and coffee, the serenely beautiful and breath-taking vistas from our home. I feel like I'm in a snow glass ball...and yum, on those scones!!
You just cannot go wrong with this recipe. I have used whole wheat flour or all-purpose, cheddar cheese or parmesan, chopped scallions or chives. buttermilk or half and half or full cream. When I used the buttermilk, I did use only 1 3/4 cups and added a stick of butter which I worked in by hand. I do use extra cheese, and definitely cut down on the salt if the cheese is a good cheddar. Supermarket cheddars will work but then you should probably go with the full 2 tsp salt. I also always put a tablespoon cumin, per someone's excellent suggestion. These are terrific straight out of the oven but they freeze and reheat nicely (a definite must for me, since I am single). I usually bring some of these to a couple of friends when I make them and they just scarf them down as soon as they see them!

Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
EGM's E3 2003 preview.
It's Mario Kart tag-team style, with one character behind the wheel and the second chucking turtle shells, banana peels, and whatever else comes along courtesy of those spinning, question-marked power-up containers. You can switch drivers right on the fly, and since both characters can hold an item, there's a whole new layer of depth to the combat-racing metagame we all know and...sniff...love.
Very good, thanks, especially when hooked up to other Cubes for LAN play (you can connect up to eight systems via broadband adapters and hubs). After selecting a pair of racers (there are 16 total), you pick one of three karts. In the version I played, some karts are available only to certain characters, and all have somewhat different handling. Aside from the usual roster of power-ups from earlier Mario Kart games, there are character-specific special items like an enormous Chain Chomp, which is perfect for clearing the road ahead.
As for the racing, it was a little slower than expectedeven in the 150cc classalthough that could be because the brief time I had on the stick wasn't enough to figure out how to get a boost using the powerslide. There's gotta be a way.

Sin Cara will be making his debut on WWE television, April 4. Will he be the next Rey Mysterio? Or another Ultimo Dragon?
More than any other major organization in wrestling history, WWE has struggled with how it has used masked wrestlers. There have been major successes, but the vast majority have either been misused or nothing but comedy fodder.
Which end of the spectrum will Sin Cara fall on? Here's a look at the Top 10 Masked Wrestlers in WWE History.
As you will shortly see, there is nothing "top 10ish" about the back end of this list with what they accomplished in WWE.
Agree/Disagree, let yourself be know, if I'm missing someone you feel deserves being mentioned, please let me know. If enough of you agree, I'll change the list.

Caution reigns with SAP near highs
David Russell | [email protected]
optionMONSTER's Depth Charge monitoring program detected the purchase of more 3,800 October 70 puts for $1.03 to $1.40. Volume was more than double previous open interest at the strike, indicating that new money was being put to work.
The traders have locked in the right to sell shares in the German software giant for $70 if they close below that level on expiration. Owning the puts allows them to protect a long position in the name or to bet on a drop without having to short the stock.(See our Education section for more on how options can be used to manage risk.)
SAP is down 1.07 percent to $70.57 this afternoon but is up 19 percent in the last three months. The shares touched $73.86 late last month, their highest price since the tech bubble burst in early 2000.
The company has repeated issued strong quarterly reports, with the next release scheduled for October 24. That's almost a week after the puts bought today expire.
Overall option volume is quadruple the daily average so far today, according to the Depth Charge. Puts outnumber calls by 70 to 1.

Technology update

Nanowires line up for plastic electronics
Scientists from Nanosys, US, have used semiconductor nanowires and nanoribbons to make thin-film transistors with good electrical performance. By separating the growth of the nanowires and ribbons from the substrate-coating process, the team was able to apply the nanomaterials at room temperature to both silicon and plastic substrates.
"We have made a general conceptual breakthrough by taking nanoelectronics in a new direction: exploiting nanomaterials not for electronic miniaturization, but for better and cheaper electronics over large areas," researcher Xiangfeng Duan told nanotechweb.org. "We have assembled nanowires into densely packed oriented thin films that we can subject to conventional electronic fabrication processes. Since only conventional electronic fabrication processes are used, our technology may lead to the first practical and scalable nanomaterial-enabled electronics."
To create a nanowire thin-film transistor, the scientists grew p-type silicon nanowires by catalytic chemical vapour deposition. Then they dispersed the wires into solution and used flow-directed alignment to assemble them on the substrate surface at room temperature. This created an oriented monolayer of nanowires with an average interwire spacing of 500-1000 nm, over areas as large as a four-inch wafer. Finally, Duan and colleagues used standard lithography followed by metallization to define source and drain electrodes for the thin-film transistor.
"In amorphous silicon or polycrystalline silicon thin-film transistors, carriers have to travel across multiple grain boundaries, but nanowire thin-film transistors have a perfect conducting channel formed by multiple single-crystal nanowire paths in parallel - like a log bridge," explained Duan. "This ensures single-crystal carrier paths all the way across the source and drain electrodes, for high carrier mobility. We have demonstrated silicon nanowire thin-film transistors with a carrier mobility of about 100 cm2/Vs - far better than the current macroelectronic technologies of amorphous silicon or organic electronics, which typically have a mobility of less than 1 cm2/Vs."
What's more, the technique can exploit a broad range of substances as the channel material, including III-V and II-VI group semiconductors. As an example, Duan and the team made a thin-film transistor on a silicon substrate from single-crystal nanoribbons of CdS, a material that has useful optical and electrical properties.
The team also made a silicon nanowire thin-film transistor on a plastic substrate, namely polyetheretherketone (PEEK). The transistor had a threshold voltage of about 3 V, an on-off ratio above 105, and a subthreshold swing of 500-800 mV per decade, values that the researchers claim are among the best reported for thin-film transistors on plastic. Slight flexing of the plastic did not significantly affect the device's properties.
"Our work has the potential to move electronics from single-crystal substrates to glass and plastic substrates, and to integrate macroelectronics, microelectronics - and potentially nanoelectronics - at device level," said Chunming Niu, director of chemistry at Nanosys. "[The technology] can impact a broad range of applications in macroelectronics, from flat-panel display (e.g. driving circuitry for OLED displays), radio-frequency identification/communications, and systems on a panel, to a whole new range of universal wearable, disposable computing and storage electronics. It could also enable 'smart textiles' or 'electronic paper'."
The researchers reported their work in Nature.

More charges filed in Erie burglary spree
Erie police have filed additional charges in an investigation into a burglary spree in the city.
Tierra Washington, 20, no known address, was arraigned Tuesday night before Erie 3rd Ward District Judge Tom Carney on charges of burglary, theft, receiving stolen property, criminal mischief and criminal conspiracy for her alleged roles in burglaries that occurred in the 1100 block of East Ninth Street on Oct. 17, 2011; and in the 900 block of West 20th Street on July 19 or 20, according to the criminal complaints filed against her.
Juan Cartagena, 18, was arraigned before Carney on Monday on charges for his alleged role in a burglary at a residence in the 600 block of Hess Avenue on Oct. 17.
Cartagena, Washington and four others are accused of taking part in a spree in which 18 homes in the city were broken into between July 2011 and November.
Cartagena has been charged in seven of the burglaries. Also charged in the spree, besides Washington, are Erie residents Robert E. Rieger, 20; Pablo A. Mendez, 19; Deshawn L. Peters, 18; and a 13-year-old boy, police said.

Donor Information
"At SSU, learning has no age limits. We grow by opening our minds and creating
new interests through the pursuit of information and knowledge."
- Ruben Armiñana, SSU President
OLLI Dean's List 2015-2016
The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute is healthy and strong, but we survive because of the generosity of private donors. Currently, the Lifelong Learning Program must raise two-thirds of its funds from private sources; only one-third of the current budget comes from student tuition.
Until a mature lifelong learning endowment fund is generated to substitute the need for annual fundraising, the OLLI Program must raise operating revenue every year. Many donors and students have generously stepped forward to support the financial goals of the program, but annual fundraising is imperative to ensure its continuation and good work.
Your support of the SSU Osher Lifelong Learning Institute is greatly appreciated.
Ideas For Giving Back to Your Osher Lifelong Learning Institute
There are many ways to give back to your Osher Lifelong Learning Institute. In order to help sustain the program and ensure its future, you can:
- Consider an Annual Gift the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute that will keep the good works of the program thriving each year.
- Develop an Osher Lifelong Learning Institute Faculty Chair.
- Consider establishing a faculty chair in your family's name, or group together with friends to pool your resources. Your support of a faculty chair will ensure that the program can hire and maintain the best faculty possible for lifelong learning.
- Involve your clubs and service organizations in supporting OLLI. Do you belong to a service club or organization that could fund a faculty chair or provide a gift for the Institute and help assist the program? Call us! We can help you present the program and speak to your group.
- Consider an endowed fund. An endowed gift is one that lasts a lifetime. Creating an endowment in your name (or a loved one's name) is similar to placing funds in a savings account and providing the Institute with the interest from your gift. Your investment (or principal) is never expended, but the income from the gift is used to assure a lifetime of support for the program.
- Help us outreach to businesses. Do you know of any businesses that would like to help sponsor the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute? Introduce us - we have a complete program to engage businesses and expose them to our program through special benefits and amenities.
- Contribute to a student scholarship fund. The Lifelong Learning Program has been fortunate to receive generous scholarship commitments, and will always be in need of continued support.
- Planning Your Estate? Want to help the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute? Consider leaving a gift in your will or bequest, gifting through a charitable trust, a gift annuity, life insurance, pension plan, IRA, or through real estate. There is a wide range of gifting vehicles that can provide you income for a lifetime along with valuable tax savings.

Deputy District Attorney Paula Gonzales introduced two recordings, including the 911 phone call placed moments after Ramon Castro was killed, and an interrogation with deputies the day after the slaying, to share Esperanza Castro's story with the jury. On both recordings, Castro said that she heard loud noises and believed a stranger was about to break into her home.
The recording of the 911 call, which was placed by Esperanza Castro on March 22, 2006, and was just under three minutes in length, provided the initial explanation as to what apparently occurred that evening at the Castro home in Canyon Country.
Ramon Castro was found dead in his pickup truck under a Highway 14 overpass on Sierra Highway on March 23, 2006. Esperanza Castro had called deputies the night before to report a burglary at her home.
She is now on trial for his murder. A neighbor and key witness for the prosecution testified last week that he saw Esperanza Castro carry her husband's body, covered in a plastic bag, to his pickup truck.
Esperanza Castro, who clearly stated her name during the emergency phone call, responded to the 911 operator in Spanish. When the male operator responded in English, Esperanza Castro handed the phone to her daughter from her first marriage, Emma Vanessa Chavez. She told the operator in English that her mother heard noises in her backyard and thought someone was trying to break into her home.
Chavez added that Esperanza Castro came to her mobile park residence on Soledad Canyon with her son, Eric Castro, and explained a possible burglary to family members. When Esperanza Castro's youngest daughter, Carina, asked where Ramon Castro was, her mother responded that he was not home.
According to the phone call, Chavez then stated that she drove her mother back to her residence on Evron Street, where they saw blood on the driveway. Upon seeing the blood, they immediately returned to Chavez's residence, where the 911 phone call was placed.
After Chavez explained her mother's story to the 911 operator, he instructed her that a deputy from the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station would meet her and her mother at the Fox Liquor store, a few blocks away from the Castro residence. It was revealed during the course of the trial that Esperanza Castro did meet a deputy at the liquor store and reported to him that her home was burglarized.
In the recording of the interview between Esperanza Castro and Detective Robert Harris, which was on the morning of March 23, 2006, she explained through an English interpreter that she heard noises in her backyard as she was falling asleep. At first she ignored the noises, thinking it was her dog. However, she said she later heard a slamming sound, waking her up.
Not sure what the sound was, Esperanza Castro said she thought her dog was about to be hurt. When she came out of her downstairs bedroom to see what happened, she stated that she saw a trail of blood in the hallway and the front door was open. She then feared for her son's safety, who was falling asleep in his upstairs bedroom.
She told deputies that she ran upstairs to Eric Castro's bedroom.
With her son, Esperanza Castro added that as she ran down the stairs and out of her house into her Cadillac Escalade, she noticed that Ramon Castro's truck was not in the driveway. She also noticed that the garage door was closed.
However, when deputies arrived at the Castro residence later that evening, the garage door was apparently open. Both mother and son immediately went to Chavez's home, which was approximately two miles away.
In the same interview, Esperanza Castro also stated that Ramon Castro had pneumonia on the evening he was killed. According to her account of what happened on March 22, 2006, Ramon Castro went to work ill in the morning and visited the doctor's office before returning home that afternoon. When he returned home, he apparently watched the Spanish-language soap opera "La Tormenta" in his upstairs bedroom, which ended around 8 p.m. However, earlier in the trial, Ramon Castro, Jr., testified that he had dinner with his father at a Stevenson Ranch Coco's at approximately 8 p.m. He did not testify that his father was ill when they met.
Esperanza Castro also told Harris that she was frustrated with her husband's lifestyle, stating that he was never home and did not help her in raising their children. She also expressed that while she knew of Ramon Castro's extramarital affairs, she was not happy that he attempted to keep his last affair secret.
She added that Ramon Castro used cocaine regularly.
The second recording, where Esperanza Castro stated that she wanted to tell the truth, was played almost entirely during the afternoon session on Monday. It may be played again during today's morning session.
Judge Burt Pines stated that the Castro trial will not be in session on Wednesday and Friday this week.
