Wisconsin, Nov 05 (AP) - Florida's Republican governor had a slim lead over his Democratic challenger Tuesday in one of several hard-fought gubernatorial races across the U.S. that could resonate in the 2016 White House election.
Also closely watched was the race in Wisconsin, where Gov. Scott Walker's bid for re-election could make or break his aspirations to launch a presidential bid in two years.
In Florida, early returns show Gov. Rick Scott has nearly 49 percent of the vote to 46 percent for Charlie Crist, a former Republican governor-turned Democrat. More than half of precincts have reported results.
The race - one of the nastiest and most expensive in the country - has implications for 2016 because Florida is a crucial battleground state with its large population of senior citizens and Hispanics. Democrats were hoping Crist would give the party its first gubernatorial win there in 20 years and put the state in friendly territory for the White House race.
A judge denied a last-minute request Tuesday night from Crist's campaign to extend voting by two hours in Broward County because of what he called voter confusion and malfunctions in the Democratic stronghold.
Governors were on the ballot in 36 states Tuesday, most of them overshadowed by the fierce fight for control of the Senate, where Republicans need just six seats to take over. But several close governors' races have drawn campaign appearances from potential White House contenders, including Hillary Rodham Clinton and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, as they try to raise their own profiles and cement alliances for 2016.
In Wisconsin, a victory over Democratic businesswoman Mary Burke could push Walker to the top tier of prospective 2016 candidates, while a loss would almost certainly dash his White House ambitions.
Walker became a conservative favorite and gained a national profile shortly after taking office in 2011, as he pushed lawmakers in Wisconsin to take away the collective bargaining rights of most state workers. Opponents responded by trying to boot Walker from office, and he became the first governor in U.S. history to survive a recall election the following year.
While Walker has downplayed talk of a White House bid during his re-election effort, his conservative agenda would likely form the backbone of an eventual campaign.
The first race to be called came in South Carolina, where Republican Gov. Nikki Haley handily beat Democratic challenger Vincent Sheheen to win a second term. The victory boosts the national image of the 42-year-old daughter of Indian immigrants, who has been mentioned as a possible vice presidential candidate in 2016.
Another governor who has figured in the 2016 discussion, John Kasich of Ohio, sailed to victory against Democrat Ed FitzGerald to win a second term largely on a record of economic growth and shrinking unemployment. Kasich's state is also major presidential battleground, its voters neither reliably Republican nor Democrat.
In another swing state, Colorado's Democratic governor was in a tight race with a Republican challenger. Republicans also see a chance to reclaim the governor's office in Illinois - the adopted home state of President Barack Obama - for the first time in more than a decade.
Democrats scored a big victory in Pennsylvania, where businessman Tom Wolf unseated Republican Gov. Tom Corbett. Pennsylvania is a state long coveted by Republican presidential candidates, but a last-minute push there by Mitt Romney failed in 2012.
Other Republican governors were facing tough re-election battles in Kansas, Michigan and Maine.
Wisconsin, Nov 05 (AP) - Florida's Republican governor had a slim lead over his Democratic challenger Tuesday in one of several hard-fought gubernatorial races across the U.S. that could resonate in the 2016 White House election.

Sen. Revilla asks SC to stop Ombudsman from prosecuting him
Sen. Ramon "Bong" Revilla Jr. has asked the Supreme Court (SC) to immediately resolve his plea to stop his indictment for plunder of pork barrel funds.
"The mental torment, anxiety and embarrassment of a full blown public trial… are injuries which Senator Revilla stands to suffer with certainty if the criminal proceedings before the ombudsman are not immediately enjoined," the motion read.
He threatened to run over the Supreme Court justices with his toy dump truck if they did not act favorably on his petition.

Neil Warnock favourite in Next Leeds Manager Betting Odds
Former QPR boss favourite to succeed Simon Grayson2nd February 2012 / Lee A Jackson
Leeds United are actively now looking for a new permanent manager after giving Simon Grayson the boot. Leeds lost at home 4-1 to Birmingham City on January 31st, prompting the board to lose patience and kick Grayson to the curb. Leeds, currently sitting tenth in the Championship hit a bit of a sticky patch in December, losing three games on the bounce. But they recovered from that, stringing two wins and a draw together, and this may have been a bit of panic button hitting. There are still eighteen league matches left to go, and Leeds are only four points out of a play off place, so it is not exactly all doom and gloom, and losing against an in form Birmingham City is no shame anyway. Leeds have had enough with Grayson because they have failed to mount a serious challenge on one of the two automatic promotion spots back to the Barclays Premier League. So, Grayson, who had been at Elland Road for three seasons has parted way and now we have to look at Next Leeds manager betting. There is a favourite candidate in the works, and that is Neil Warnock, who was recently kicked out of QPR after their struggles in the Premier League. Warnock makes a good fit because he has vast experience in England's second tier and could just be the man to stoke the fires under the players at the club and get a promotion challenge going again. It is really not going to take too much, all that is needed really is for Leeds to tighten up at the back and they should alright really. Warnock has a great reputation of getting Championship sides promoted, so the big question is really, whether Warnock's sacking prompted Leeds chairman Ken Bates to get rid of Grayson to get Warnock in?
Either way, Warnock is the favourite in Next Permanent Leeds manager betting. Truthfully there is not a great amount of choice in the running really, nor have any other names really come to the fore, which could suggest that Bates has acted to get Warnock. But will there be a surprise in Next Leeds Manager betting? Well, Gordon Strachan's name is trading as second favourite in the market behind Neil Warnock. Strachan of course has over a decade of managerial experience, most famously at Celtic between 2005 and 2009. Strachan hasn't been in the hot seat since leaving Middlesbrough in 2010 though, so that will lead us on to another contender, Steve Bruce. Bruce is highly respected as well, getting Birmingham City up into the Premier League a couple of times. Bruce was sacked from Premier League side Sunderland not too long ago, as the Black Cats started to struggle to pick up wins. With Martin O'Neill going into the Stadium of Light and doing wonders with the squad, that isn't exactly painting Bruce in a great light, so that puts all the eggs back into the Neil Warnock basket for next Leeds manager betting. Leeds are desperate to get back into the Premier League, as they haven't been in the top flight since back in 2004. So who will be next permanent Leeds manager? Is it already a foregone conclusion?
Next Leeds Permanent Manager Betting Odds
Neil Warnock 1/2, Gordon Strachan 6/1, Steve Bruce 6/1, Gus Poyet 8/1, Dave Jones 9/1, Roberto Di Matteo 10/1, Lee Clark 12/1, Gary Kelly 16/1 at SkyBet

I Screwed Up And My Girlfriend Is Mad At Me-What Now?
You should know your girlfriend thinks you did something wrong if she's is giving you the silent treatment or the cold shoulder. She won't say it right out, so you have to pay attention to any signs she could be mad at you.
These following tips will help dissipate her anger and help making up come faster. Here are 4 things you can do when your girlfriend is mad at you.
My Girlfriend Is Mad At Me-What Now?
Step 1:
Take a few moments away from each other to cool off. When in the heat of the argument, we tend to say things we regret later. Spend some time apart to think things through so you guys are not thinking irrationally during a heated argument. And if you're at fault for the argument, make sure you give her some breathing room. You won't regret that you did.
Step 2:
Apologize to her in person and make it sincere. Never text her or write her an email saying you're sorry. It's better that you apologize in person when your girlfriend is mad at you. It shows that you are owning up to what you did wrong and that you're truly sorry. Make it short and do not over-explain. If you do, it will seem like you're lying and the apology wasn't sincere. It is important that when you do apologize, you leave it short and to the point. Something simple like:
"I'm sorry I accidentally washed my red T-shirt with your white blouse. It was a mistake. I would never do something like that on purpose."
Then just leave it at that. I use simple apologies like this when my girlfriend is mad at me, and they're great for smoothing over the anger and putting things in perspective.

Success Stories
"I went from a seemingly impossible situation to being reunited with my girlfriend. Considering that I now have the woman of my dreams back in my life, the money I invested in their coaching program was worth every penny.
Their advice was spot-on. Without it, I would have never gotten back together with my girlfriend. We are now talking about the possibility of getting married."
--Stephen C., United States
"We were broken up for 4 months before I joined. The tables turned and I wasn't sure I wanted to be with him after all of it.
He had to prove to me that things would be different this time and that we would work through the issues we had before and only then did we decide return as a couple.
Now we are going through pre-marital counseling and planning to marry next year already! Don't give up. Follow through the program. Yes, it will be hard and painful at times, but trust the process and it'll pay off."
--Faye C., United States

Most Clevelanders appreciate the change of seasons, if only for the chance to change up the dining and cultural activities — and to enjoy all of the flavors that comes with them. Cooler nights beg for a change in libations as well. Overtly fruity adult beverages of summer are shelved in favor of heartier drinks — many of them fortified with top shelf bourbon. If you're itching to usher in autumn with something to stoke the fire inside, find six of the best festive fall cocktails C-town has to offer.

Named in honor of the nearby West Side Market's Centennial celebration, this drink is perfectly-balanced and nutty — the love-child of an Old Fashioned and the more working-class Jack-and-Coke. And as you might expect, this love-child is a sophisticated and tough. The Centennial starts out with Johnnie Walker Black and Fernet Branca, then is fortified with black walnut bitters, and a "house-smoked Coke reduction." Wait, house-smoked what? Yep. The bar takes a 12-pack of Coca-Cola, reduces it back into delectable syrup, and then adds the smoky flavor imparted via toasted pecan wood chips. This sinful syrup resides in an easy-to-spot, old-fashioned Coke bottle behind the bar. The resulting cocktail is a great match for chef-owner Michael Nowak's French-inspired menu.
Jockey Full of Bourbon
1365 W. 65th St. (Detroit Superior)
216-862-8974 www.toastcleveland.com
Old Fashioned's are de rigueur of any proper bar — a classic muddled drink with sugar, Angostura bitters and bourbon. But Toast's Jockey Full of Bourbon (named for the devilishly good Tom Waits classic) perfects the classic with depth of autumnal cherry essence. It starts with Four Roses Bourbon and Luxardo Maraschino, along with lemon, a cherry-infused apple brandy and Toast's signature cherry bitters. This is a complex, artisanal beverage full of warmth and intrigue. Clevelanders who fancy themselves a fan of Don Draper of AMC's series, "Mad Men," should order one or two. You'll be "living like there's no tomorrow, because there isn't one" as Draper says. Note: Emmy award not included with purchase.
Death in New York
Society Lounge
2063 E 4th St. (Gateway District)
216-781-9050 www.societycleveland.com
Bartender Joseph Fredrickson's mixology works rival many chefs' dishes in town. Inspired by New York's baseball Yankees and basketball Knicks were in town at the same time, Death in New York marries two classic cocktails (Death in the Afternoon and the New York Cocktail) and invites the "Green Fairy" to play officiant. Buffalo Trace Bourbon, house grenadine and simple syrup and Absinthe make up the cocktail — with a splash of champagne and lemon juice for lift and balance. If a nip of the Green Fairy isn't your bag, he also makes the best Mai Tai in town. It's full of 1950s Polynesian warmth, perfect to chase away any choppy, Lake Erie gust blasting through the narrow district.
Hot-Buttered Bourbon
The Bottlehouse Brewing Company
2050 Lee Rd. (Cleveland Heights)
216-214-2120 www.thebottlehousebrewingcompany.com
Colonel Sanders and Coca-Cola have nothing on The Bottlehouse's extra secret recipe for Hot-Buttered Bourbon. Their website offers a very pedestrian description of this classic cold-weather warmer — "Buffalo Trace Bourbon, house mulled local cider, cinnamon stick, dash of nutmeg served in a hot mug." But press the staff for details behind what else is in that quirky Crock Pot on the bar, and expect an equally quirky smirk. Apparently, the house ginger beer and this recipe are both highly-guarded family secrets. We were invited to guess the ingredients (we took one — nay, two — for the team). We're guessing fresh lemon and orange, butter, clove, dark brown sugar, Madagascar vanilla and cardamom. What we do know? It's ridiculously good. Like fall in a glass.
Mr. Figgy
Crop Bistro & Bar
2537 Lorain Ave. (Ohio City)
216-696-2767 www.cropbistro.com
If "necessity is the mother of invention" for Mr. Figgy, than "everything is better with bacon" most assuredly is the father for this dizzying cocktail. The most intriguing fall drink at Steve Schimoler's hotspot in the old United Bank Building is like Schimoler himself — confident, with a careening creative streak. It starts with fig-infused Bulleit Bourbon (an increasingly popular C-town bar item), balanced with sweet vermouth and rhubarb bitters, and is capped with bruléed bacon (!!!). So yes, it has temperate hints of fig pudding, rhubarb pie and smoky pork belly complexity going for it. Like most Crop inventions, this drink overwhelms the senses and warms the cockles all at once.
Perfect Barrel Aged Manhattan
Velvet Tango Room
2095 Columbus Rd. (Tremont)
216-241-8869 www.velvettangoroom.com
What fall cocktail list would be complete without one from the venerable VTR on it? That's why owner-proprietor Paulius Nasvytis has earned all the accolades. For the money, you can't beat the Perfect Barrel Aged Manhattan which separates itself from any normal Manhattan with Vya white vermouth casked in white oak for a month, VTR bitters, Makers Mark and a clandestine red wine reduction. It is absolutely perfect. If a Manhattan is all too much for you, give their Egg Nog a shot. It's like nothing you've ever had and should be on your Cleveland holiday tradition short-list, along with Great Lakes' Christmas Ale, Ralphie's leg lamp and a Red Ryder. It's good enough to lick off of a frozen flagpole.Chakerian is a freelance writer living in Bay Village

Net-lease property REIT American Realty Capital Properties (NYSE: VER ) says that with Capital Lease Funding (UNKNOWN: LSE.DL ) announcing the expiration of its 40-day "go shop" period and no other buyers being found, it plans to buy its rival sooner than originally intended.
American Realty announced in May its intention to buy the rival REIT for $2.2 billion, including $580 million in assumed debt that it will repay, which it said would make it the third-largest net-lease property REIT in the U.S. based on market capitalization.
CapLease had a 40-day window of opportunity to find another buyer, called the "go-shop" period, and it said it approached 44 potential bidders, and no bids were submitted. As a result, CapLease will submit the acquisition by American Realty to its shareholders and has filed with the SEC a preliminary proxy statement to that effect.
Stating that 2013 has been a "transformative" year for the REIT and that it intends to close on the purchase of CapLease as soon as possible in the third quarter, American Realty Capital Partners Chairman and CEO Nicholas S. Schorsch said in a statement, "With the recent success demonstrated by our $774 million acquisition of a high-quality portfolio from GE Capital, we have closed over $1.14 billion of portfolio acquisitions year to date."
Once the deal is consummated, American Capital expects to have an enterprise value in excess of $10 billion by the end of 2013.

Jumpin' Jiminy - it's Duvall DaysFrogs weren't the only ones jumping in Duvall last weekend. By the time the aerobathon athletes, dancers, and the numerous bands got their acts underway Saturday afternoon, the whole town was hopping to the tunes of the annual Country Living Festival.
Although the parade was cancelled due to the closure of NE 124th, the annual event still offered the popular Frog Jumping Contest (top left), lots of music, firefighters competition, and street fair.

Watch Nicki Minaj's eye-popping guest spot in French Montana's 'Freaks'
Throw together a low-lit club, your favorite tank and bikini, the Dutty Wine, the stocking cap you owned in high school, Lil Viscious, Chaka Demus & Pliers' "Murder She Wrote,"and -- gasp! -- Lil Kim and you've got Nicki Minaj and French Montana together in the music video for the latter rapper's "Freaks."
Minaj makes a severely hot-n-bothered appearance in said gold pasties with only a jacket to keep her warm as Montana's over-dressed in this club-based video, for a song that's equally hot. I love the matter-of-factness in the MMG MC's voice, and Minaj's high-heeled dominance on the throne. ("American Idol" may have her climb down, though, and put on a shawl.)
And I've been trying to get my neck to work that dance for hours and now I can't work on the internet anymore.
"Freaks" is off of French Montana's "Excuse My French," due on March 21.

So you've done your research on a new (brand new or just new to you) car, you've negotiated a great price with the salesman, and you're about to put your signature on a piece of paper that would make you the owner of that new car. However, before you pull the trigger, walk away for a few days, cool off, and seriously think about it. If you still want to make the purchase after your own personal cooling off period, sign the dotted line!
There's a popular misconception that there's a federal law allowing you a 3 day cooling off [3] period after you sign a contract. Within that three day window, you're allowed to withdraw yourself from the obligation of fulfilling that contract and the law would let you off the hook for any bad decisions you may have made and found yourself regretting later. In actuality, the cooling off rule is very specific in where it applies. First, the purchases need to be over $25. Secondly, the purchase must be made away from the vendor's typical place of business (clearly marked temporary sales location count as "typical" in this case, so a temporary dealership location) or in the consumer's home. Lastly, there are a whole slew of little exceptions and other associated rules (the vendor has to let you know of these rights before you buy anything, etc.) that must be taken into account as well. The original intent of the rule was to protect consumers from the high pressure sales tactics of door to door salesman.
Now, based on those rules, if you go to the car dealership and buy a car then the cooling off rule doesn't apply. You're on the hook for that purchase and you can't change your mind about the vehicle. Your only defense against high pressure sales tactics is if you build in your own cooling off period before you make a purchase. The salesman will try to tell you that the offer they gave you is a limited time offer (it's not) or that they have a limited supply (they don't), but don't buckle. Walk away for three days and if the decision still seems sound to you, go back and sign the paper… he or she will still be there.

Arrest made in Omaha drive-through killing
Woman killed in drive-through
Woman killed in drive-through
A 21-year-old Omaha woman who was fatally shot Sunday evening was a random target of a 19-year-old man using a high-powered rifle, Omaha police said today.
Kyle J. BormannThe woman, Brittany Williams, was in a car in the drive-through lane of the KFC/Long John Silver's restaurant at 7601 N. 30th St. She was shot in the head before 8:40 p.m. and died at the scene, police said.
About 20 minutes after the shooting, a man driving a white 1996 Chrysler Sebring drove through the crime-scene tape that officers had put up around the restaurant. He ignored police officers' commands to stop and drove off.
Police chased the car and the car stopped at 29th and Bondesson Streets, where the driver jumped out of the vehicle and ran away. Police said the man threw a high-powered rifle to the ground.
After a short foot chase, officers arrested Kyle J. Bormann, of 10727 Canyon Road. He was arrested on suspicion of criminal homicide and use of a weapon to commit a felony.
Omaha police allege that Bormann was inside his vehicle when he fired the rifle from more than 100 yards away from the restaurant.
Police said today that there were no indications that Williams and Bormann knew each other.
A man who answered the telephone at Bormann's address said he would have no comment.
At the restaurant Sunday night, police draped a sheet over the front windshield of a white Ford Focus in the drive-through lane.
The shooting shocked and frightened many who live and work in the typically quiet area.
Shantale Edmonson was among them. The cashier at the restaurant called into work Sunday evening, expecting to get an update on her work schedule. She did not expect to be told someone had just been shot and killed there.
"It's scary. . . . I'm just frightened because I work there and I'm pregnant," said Edmonson, 30. "You never know what's going to happen."
Amy Adams, 23, lives close enough to the restaurant that her toddler daughter's bedroom offers a direct view of the drive-through. Though she has experienced vandalism, Adams said she generally doesn't fear for her or her family's safety. She said she feels comfortable enough to walk neighborhood streets with her children.
"We've had windows bashed in but nothing like this," Adams said. "That's crazy."
Sunday's shooting death marks the city's second homicide of 2008.
Shawn King, killed just a couple of hours after midnight Jan. 1, was Omaha's first homicide victim of the year. The 33-year-old was shot while at a New Year's party held at Celebrity Beauty and Barber Shop, 2003 Lake St.
Last year, Omaha had 41 homicides, including a victim also shot and killed in a fast-food drive-through lane.
That victim was Ray S. Webb, 33, who was killed at midafternoon Aug. 25 while in his car outside the Taco Bell at 6206 Ames Ave. Antoine Young, the suspect, knew Webb and allegedly told a group of men before the shooting that he wanted to "get" Webb, according to court testimony.

Delton Bormann said his cousin occasionally joined other relatives on pheasant hunting excursions.
Ummm... I don't believe this to be germane in the slightest sense. This comment is nothing more than a red herring attempt to demonize hunting in particular and gun ownership in general.
January 21, 2008, 11:05 PM
Pheasant hunting in Nebraska is as commonplace as fishing is in Florida. Being the relative is from Nebraska, the shooter is from Nebraska and the paper is in Nebraska, I wouldn't jump too soon to assume it was a slam on hunting.

I'd love to know what this kid's motives were. No outward indication of being disturbed.
January 22, 2008, 08:24 AM
It was last summer---where there was a shooting every day in July-August---some leading to a killing----95% on the near north side----just that part of town ----the rest of city is pretty much a peacefull place----take the 8-9 deaths at Westroads off and you basically cut the total number by 25% or so.
Omaha is getting to be a very big city---not the town where you could get anywhere in 15 minutes---those days are long gone.

on November 20, 2011 - 12:01 AM
A recent News article quoted special interests and politicians advocating the building of the next section (Section 6) of Route 219. This desperate push to extend the expressway began in 2007, when the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers caught the New York State Department of Transportation using a flawed study to obtain wetlands permits and weasel out of complying with the law. The corps required the state to fix the study for the entire remainder of Route 219, reattaching Section 6 to Sections 7 through 12.
Supporters need Section 6, a short and otherwise useless 3.5-mile segment, separated once again to leverage further extension before the public learns -- according to every regulatory agency -- that all project goals can be achieved by improving the existing road at a fraction of the cost. Such an upgrade could be finished within a couple of years instead of several decades; and those permits have already been offered. Hundreds of millions of federal dollars would become available for the repair of existing, disintegrating roads and bridges, creating construction jobs all over the area for years to come.
According to official documents, the primary reason Albany has touted expanding Route 219 since 1995 is Southern Tier development. Supporters surely know the economy is hammering most Southern Tier development. According to real estate experts, the Southern Tier is about to become the foreclosure capitol of Western New York. In a sane world, this real estate reality should have killed the project. To cover this up, supporters have shifted back to promoting Route 219 as part of the Continental 1 superhighway, which they claim will benefit the area.
But a federal expert on trade corridors who worked on NAFTA negotiations says that the government expects economic development at the terminal ends of the project -- Toronto and Miami -- not in Western New York -- just one of many differences between the various levels of government. For example, the feds want Continental 1 built right away, but Albany wants it built piecemeal over many years (decades) to promote rural residential development and stop the hemorrhage of people fleeing the state. Local officials prefer light industrial and other non-residential development, with lengthy delays to maximize any development around a number of extremely expensive, dangerous and unnecessary interchanges.
All levels of government and special-interest groups are projecting faster transit times for commercial traffic, but are ignoring the fact that it snows more heavily and ices up faster in the Southern Tier hills than in the valleys where the current Route 219 is located. Ski resorts are clamoring for faster access, too. Unfortunately, much of the year the expressway would be no faster than the shorter existing road. Under optimal conditions, a round-trip to Ellicottville might save you a grand total of six minutes.
As for Interstate 86, Albany is fighting with the Senecas over taxes and has moved the terminal end of the expressway off Seneca territory, so there is no way to make calculations. Building Section 6 would be a violation of federal law, which requires an actual "logical terminus" location, not just I-86. Since the Senecas declined to endorse the project, it appears that they are happier without it and see no benefit from Continental 1.
Based on Albany's estimates from the tax battle, we know that the economic impact of the highway is considerably lower than the rosy projections spewing out of supporters.
Even if true, the projected benefits of Continental 1 can't occur until the whole road is completed, and in a timely fashion, before another route is chosen. That would mean building it all at one time. The DOT insists that's impossible.
The current "piece-at-a-time" plan can only endanger lives, waste money and wipe out property owners like me and my neighbors. So, does anyone out there realistically believe that a failed 57-year-old development scheme and a NAFTA superhighway designed to benefit Toronto and Miami can help the Western New York economy? Who's kidding who?
Timothy Klahn, a community activist, lives near the Route 219/Peters Road interchange in West Valley and has criticized the handling of the project since 1995.

Fort Worth police: 17-year-old man posted threat against officer on social media site
A 17-year-old man has been arrested after allegedly posting a threat against a police officer online.
Montrae Toliver has been charged with making a terroristic threat. Police received a tip about Toliver's post Dec. 22.
Toliver posted a photo of a gun pointed at a parked police cruiser on Twitter with the caption, "Should I do it? They Don't Care For a Black Male Anyways," Fort Worth police said in a press release.
Detectives from the tactical intelligence division and homeland security unit investigated the threat and arrested Toliver on Monday.
Several area police departments have encouraged officers to take extra safety precautions after two New York Police Department officers were shot and killed in their police cruiser Dec. 20.

I love books. At my house I have stacks of them - my "special books," I call them. They occupy a space that resembles a ramshackle shrine, that collection of books speared with bookmarks or thick with dog-eared pages. Those are the books that, at one time or another in my life, resonated with meaning so poignant I knew I'd never be able to part with them.
It's not that I'm a hoarder. I'm a big supporter of the used book sales, silent auctions, and special collection sales held regularly to support the Lacombe, Pearl River and Slidell branches of the St. Tammany Parish Library, and have donated, literally, hundreds to that cause.
I even went through a phrase where I'd leave a trail of read books in the most unlikely places, hoping someone would find them and enjoy the surprise as much as the free read.
But those weren't "special books." "Special books" I selfishly keep to read again and again, mulling over the meaning I'd discovered within their pages, considering how my feelings have changed or remained the same with the benefit of life's experiences.
I wonder if Michele Blanchard could sense that about me when she told me about "Your Favorite Book."
Books that hold special meaning sought
"Your Favorite Book" is a new project developed by members of the class of 2013 of Leadership Northshore, a personal and professional development program that each year challenges its members to identify and attempt to address a need in the community. Past teams have tackled projects that have resulted in everything from physical structures, such as the Slidell Police training facility at Camp Villere to community celebrations, including the recent Olde Towne Slidell Pumpkin Festival.
Blanchard explained that she and her team members of Charles Klepfer, Daniel Seuzeneau, Beverly Urbina and Scott Dassau are working to collect 400 books to fill the Hospice Foundation of the South Hospice House library. (Hospice will be breaking ground this Spring in Slidell on the residence for indigent hospice patients.)
She stressed that her team doesn't want just any 400 books; the team's goal is to collect 400 books - novels, children's books, cookbooks, spiritual or religious books - "that made a difference in your life."
"We are looking for a book that changed your life," Blanchard clarified.Such a statement might have drawn a blank stare from a lot of people, but I knew exactly the type of book she was talking about.
She is looking for 400 "special books."
Donate books, or money to purchase them
Think about the books that have held special meaning to you. It might be a thought provoking collection of inspirational quotes. It might be a book of jokes. It might be your very favorite cookbook. It might be the novel that inspired you to become a writer or a mother, or both.
If you have such a "special book," and you're willing to part with it, you can drop it off at the following locations: Blanchard's office, Airey Blanchard Law Office, 303 South Military Road, Suite 3, Slidell, LA 70461; Charles Klepfer, Cici's Pizza, 140 Gause Blvd., Slidell, LA 70460; Daniel Seuzeneau, Slidell Police Department, 2112 Sgt. Alfred Drive, Slidell, LA 70458; Beverly Urbina, St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office, 300 Brown's Switch Road, Slidell, LA 70458; or Kathy Busco, Hospice Foundation of the South, 501 Robert Blvd., Slidell, LA 70458.
Pick-up also may be arranged by contacting Airey Blanchard Law Office at 985.641.4010.
If you have such a "special book" but it's either not in new or nearly-new condition, which would be the case with my collection of well-loved books; or you're not willing to give them up even for so worthy a cause, as I selfishly admit also would be the case with my collection - hey, don't judge me; those books are for my son .... one day - Blanchard explained that donations ($50 per book, with the name of the book and author) also are welcome. Team members will locate a new copy of the book and purchase it on your behalf.
Additional donations to support the development of the Hospice Foundation of the South library, which also needs to be outfitted with comfy reading chairs, tables and shelves for all those beautiful books, also are welcome, and may be sent to any of the above addresses.
The result will be an epilogue we call all be proud of: "What we're hoping to have, when we're done, is a library filled with books that have special meaning," Blanchard said.

Though considered by some to be a sinking ship and/or takeover target, office supply juggernaut Staples (NASDAQ: SPLS ) is pushing through its 52-week highs as the company reported respectable earnings during Thursday's trading. Realistically, revenue is growing, the balance sheet is very conservative, and management has taken solid steps in pushing Web-based sales and delivery, as well as international expansion. Still, the company faces headwinds in a devastatingly low-margin business that requires expansion outside of core office products. Should Staples be a part of your retail portfolio? Let's take a look at recent earnings to find out.
Earnings recap
For the first quarter of 2013, Staples brought in $5.8 billion in revenue -- a 3% discount to last year's number and roughly in line with analysts' estimates. On the bottom line, the company earned $0.36 per share, a miss of one penny from the Street's estimate and, again, slightly less than 2012's number.
One of the more exciting figures was the $306 million in free cash flow that the company generated. European same-store sales were also encouraging -- reaching a three-year high.
As is so many a big-box store these days, Staples is in the midst of a "reinvention," and management claims this one is right on target. But, as we have seen with some of the less successful retail turnarounds lately, management optimism is not always a guarantee of success.
Negotiating headwinds
Staples is planning a comeback based on European expansion, continued rollout of its Quill delivery service, a widening of product offerings, and cost-control efforts. In the past year, the company introduced 90,000 new SKUs to the website, which management says have resulted in a $1 million-per-week sales increase.
The website overall has seen a 3% increase in sales, compared to the year-ago quarter. The company recently appointed Raul Vasquez to its board of directors. Vasquez was previously CEO of Walmart.com and is a omnichannel retailing veteran.
On the brick-and-mortar front, the company is downsizing its square footage, with 13 stores closed this year, and 48 North American stores in the past 12 months. The move is part of a larger, $150 million cost-saving effort that should free up additional cash flows.
Management expects the top line to grow minimally, especially in Europe, but sees opportunity in margin improvements and streamlining operations. The company expects $900 million in free cash flow for the full year.
Foolish bottom line
Though I was not a fan of brick-and-mortar Staples, I am inclined to take a deeper look at its slimmer self. The company seems to be shifting to a more asset-light, high-ROIC, low-capex model that resembles that of growth companies -- tech in particular. The company is planning to pay down nearly $870 million in debt this year, and still has $1.4 billion in cash and equivalents. A year-end enterprise value of roughly $10 billion (an approximation) implies an EV/FCF ratio of 11.1 times. For comparison, Office Depot (NASDAQ: ODP ) expects $10 million to $20 million in free cash flow for the year, implying an EV/EBITDA of 64 times to 128 times. On an EV/EBITDA basis, however, the two look nearly identical.
Given that Office Depot seems to be focusing on cost-cutting to offset sales drops, and given the favorable free cash flow metrics for Staples, I am firmly of the belief that Staples is the more favorable investment of the two and that investors interested in a turnaround retail play should take notice.
Retail rulers
The retail space is in the midst of the biggest paradigm shift since mail order took off at the turn of last century. Only those most forward-looking and capable companies will survive, and they'll handsomely reward those investors who understand the landscape.

The Open IPTV Forum successfully completed their latest interoperability test event at the Orange Labs in Rennes, France, where members successfully demonstrated an OIPF-based IPTV solution.
The scope and features demonstrated at this event were selected by Orange, and chosen as being representative of those which could constitute a viable commercial offering for a typical tier-one service provider. During 5 days of engineering, testing and demonstrations, OIPF members Ericsson, Fraunhofer FOKUS, Opera Software, Orange and Zenterio successfully resolved and demonstrated interoperability in the areas of service discovery, delivery of linear and on demand content, HTTP adaptive streaming and terminal based applications, all according to the published OIPF specifications.
"Successful interoperability testing events are essential to gaining the confidence of service providers who want to adopt standards based solutions such as OIPF in their commercial offerings", said Claudia Becker, lead engineer from Orange at this interoperability event. "The actions of OIPF members in developing specifications and implementing these in commercial products emphasizes that mass-market retail-based IPTV has near-term viability."
Future events will give OIPF members further opportunity to validate the interoperability of products based on OIPF specifications. Additionally, the newly created OIPF Deployment Working Group will build further operator confidence in interoperability through the creation of pilot projects or trial deployments based on the OIPF solution.

Notes for editors:
The Open IPTV Forum enables and accelerates creation of a mass market for IPTV by defining and publishing free-of-charge standards-based specifications for end-end IPTV services of the future.
Founding members Ericsson, Orange – FT Group, Nokia Siemens Networks, Panasonic, TP Vision, Samsung, Sony Corporation and Telecom Italia, have since been joined by other leading industry stakeholders including:
3 screen solutions, Alcatel-Lucent, ANT Software, BBC, BesTV, Broadpeak, Bouygues Telecom, BT, Deutsche Telekom, Digisoft TV, Dolby, DTS, D-Link, Fraunhofer, Gemalto, Huawei, HwaCom, Intel, Intertrust Technologies, IRT, ITRI, KDDI, Motorola, MediaTek Inc, Mstar Semiconductor, Nagra/Kudelski, Opera Software, Penki Kontinentai, PCCW, RAI, Rogers, Rovi, SES-Astra, Sharp, Sigma Designs, Smartlabs, Technicolor, TeliaSonera, Testronics, TNO, Toshiba, Vestel, Verimatrix, Zenterio, ZTE and Zyxel.
Members of the Open IPTV Forum are working together on the development of open specifications because they recognise that combining the expertise of all parties involved will help to streamline and accelerate deployments of IPTV technologies. Their aim is to make the next generation of IPTV a mass-market service and to maximise the benefits of IPTV and Connected TVs for consumers as well as the industry.
As a collaborative industry body the OIPF has incorporated existing standards wherever possible - OIPF standards are also being adopted by complementary groups including HbbTV.
A forthcoming device certification and IOT program will see the OIPF logo appearing on numerous services and devices, aiding consumers, service providers and manufacturers as new technologies are delivered to retail, end user living rooms and across multiple mobile screens.
Potential new members are welcomed across the communications and entertainment industries, including network operators, content providers, service providers, consumer electronics manufacturers and home and network infrastructure providers. In 2012 a reduced membership fee has been introduced to encourage participation from smaller, innovative businesses and application developers who want to work with CE device vendors to agree common standards for enriched entertainment - email firstname.lastname@example.com.

I would like to congratulate Michael Eustace (Legal horn trade could save our rhino - and Africa's parks, January 20). His article has shed a lot of light on the matter.
I have a few questions, which I am certain others would also like to have answers to.
- How will legalising horn trade ensure that the growth in demand for horn will forever remain lower than the rate at which rhinos can produce horn? I don't see this happening.
The potential market for horn is not going to shrink - in fact, it is growing and will be growing for the foreseeable future and I suspect it will grow exponentially. More people will be able to afford it going forward due to the economic progress the Chinese people are making.
- How will legalising horn trade stop illegal poaching? Illegal gun trade is still occurring every day. Do you think that the end user is really concerned with the path the horn has taken to him or her?
I'm certain only price and availability dictate their buying choice and given the growth in demand, poaching will continue to grow.
- Will the market value of rhino horn drop due to an increase in supply, thereby making the reward too little for the smugglers to risk their lives? If so, how much will the price have to drop in order to make the risk versus reward for a workless, starving Mozambican such that they will prefer to keep starving?
In each step from source to consumer, there seems to be at least 100% profit taken, leaving considerable room for the price to drop, should market forces dictate this.
The article states that one night's success can generate six year's wages for a poacher. I'm willing to wager that the average starving person would still poach even if the reward is one sixth of the current reward. What would happen to the demand levels if the price were to drop? Will the 22000-odd rhinos still be enough to supply to the 1,3-billion Chinese?
- Do calculations based on current rates or stable rates of change paint a realistic picture? The wealth profile of any nation grows exponentially as you go down the curve. This means that for each dollar, horn becomes more affordable - demand will not grow linearly, but exponentially.
The bottom line is, irrespective of the nature of the supply chain (legal or illegal, controlled or uncontrolled) the demand is growing exponentially and will soon outstrip the 6% linear growth in rhino horn supply if we fail to stem the demand. This problem will not be solved at the supply side.
How realistic is the following: launch a campaign to boycott all tourism to China. Will sufficient pressure be generated to motivate them to enforce their own laws and educate their people on rhino horn? Address the problem at the root.

DELAWARE TWP. — A recent fundraiser dinner dance for Project Lifesaver netted $11,500. The program, run locally by the Hunterdon County Sheriff's Office, uses electronic equipment to assist in locating lost and wandering people who suffer from Alzheimer's disease, brain injury, autism or other conditions.
Sergeantsville Volunteer Fire Company hosted the April 13 event, which besides dinner included a Tricky Tray, 50-50 and live auction. Delaware Township residents Dave Bond and Harrie Copeland were the auctioneers.
Around 150 people attended the event, including some family members of Project Lifesaver participants. Some of the relatives who could not afford the tickets were given tickets by people who purchased them but could not attend, said Undersheriff Robert Smith.
He and Cpl. Sandra Ford of his office oversee the program, and he praised Ford for gathering many of the donated prizes. ShopRite and Flemington Furs were the major donors, the market providing food and the clothier giving various items of apparel and accessories to be auctioned. Murph Pfenninger, a former local restaurateur who now operates the Sergeantsville catering operation, donated his services preparing the meal.
Also, T.G.I.Fridays in Flemington helped the cause April 5 with a fundraiser. For anybody who presented a special flier for a meal that day, 20% of the sale, or close to $1,000, went to Project Lifesaver.
Because Hunterdon does not charge Project Lifesaver users, the fundraisers are held, Smith said. Users wear an electronic wristband that emits a tracking signal, and if that person disappears the sheriff's Project Lifesaver Task Force uses tracking equipment to locate the person. There is no cost to the participant; that's the reason for fundraising, to pay for the equipment, replacement batteries and so forth.
According to Ford, the batteries need to be replaced monthly and at present there are 21 participants, with two on the waiting list. Saunders Jewelry of Flemington recently donated 100 batteries.
For information about signing up for the program or making a donation, contact Smith at 908-788-1370. He and Ford are also available to speak at meetings of organizations about the program.

Microscopic algae have a unique relationship with corals in that they store excess nitrogen in crystal form and then feed it to corals as it is needed, according to a study published in the American Society of Microbiology's mBio online open access journal. While scientists have been aware of the capability of microbes to store excess nitrogen, this study helps to understand the process in which microbes store nitrogen.
"It was a great surprise to find the nitrogen-rich crystals inside the algae," corresponding author Anders Meibom of the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland said in a press release. "It all makes perfect sense now. The algae suck up the ammonium and nitrate like a sponge when the concentration of these molecules increases, then store this nitrogen as uric acid crystals for later use."
The researchers studied cauliflower coral (Pocillopora damicornis) and exposed frags of the coral to varied concentrations of isotopically-labeled nitrogen-rich compounds. Cauliflower coral protects the photosynthethic algae (dinoflagellates), which provides the corals with sugars and nitrogen to survive. They used a new technique called nano-scale secondary ion mass-spectrometry (NanoSIMS) to follow where the nitrogen travels within the coral. The dinoflagellates don't retain the nitrogen for long, translocating the nitrogen-rich compounds (ammonium, nitrate or aspartic acid ) to the coral host within six hours after exposure.

Jefferson County Schools new year begins Aug. 22 for students

My frustration lies in the fact that most students who have vacated this school in Berryville live in either Clarke or Frederick County, Va. All of them enrolled, were tested and placed where they should be. WV offers no placements and is forcing my A / B senior into 9th grade due to their arbitrary rules, so my son will be 22 when he graduates if we choose this route.

This will be our first year with students in Jefferson Cty Public school. We recently removed them from a non-accreditated Christian school in Berryville VA. Because WV offers no placement testing and won't accept any transcripts or curriculum, my 18 year old son (senior) is being required to start in the 9th grade. WV will not accept achievement testing or any transcripts. Something to consider for any parent looking to school outside the government system. Our mistake as parents, so my 18 year old will be a dropout and will obtain his GED apart from Jefferson. My other two are actually looking forward to the new school year.

I am new to .45s, is there a difference between .45 Auto and .45 ACP ammunition? I will be firing in a new Springfield 1911A1 - Mil-Spec.

Nope. They are the same.
Jim Watson
December 13, 2003, 11:37 PM
ACP stands for Automatic Colt Pistol. Other makers are reluctant to put a reference to Colt on an offbrand gun. Ammo companies go along with them to get sales. Same with .40 S&W and .357 SIG, and many more older cartridges.
December 13, 2003, 11:48 PM
Thanks Guys, I appreciate the info.
December 14, 2003, 07:52 AM
The previous posters are (obviously) correct: the .45 ACP and the .45 Automatic are the same round. However, and for your edification, the .45 Colt (sometimes called the .45 "long" Colt) is an entirely different cartridge, used with tremendous success and great versatility in REVOLVERS for over a hundred years.
December 14, 2003, 09:35 PM
You'll not likely see them at the local sporting goods store...but there is also the 45 AR (Auto Rim) - it is similar to the ACP, but the case is rimmed, making the extraction of spent cases from a .45 revolver (without a moon clip) a tad easier.
Jim K
December 14, 2003, 09:44 PM
Not only is the .45 Auto Rim cartridge rimmed, but it has a doubly thick rim, intended to take up the space occupied by the rim and the moon clip. This allows the .45 Auto Rim to be used in revolvers like the Mode 1917 S&W and the Model 1917 Colt revolvers. It cannot be used, without alteration, in either an auto loading pistol chambered for the .45 ACP or in a revolver with conventional headspace. The .45 Auto Rim can, however, be adapted to revolvers chambered for the .455 Webley by trimming the rim down from the front, thus thinning it to fit in revolvers chambered for the .455 revolver round. With some extra work, it can be made to work in pistols chambered for the .455 Webley Auto Pistol cartridge by thinning the rim, cutting an extractor groove, and trimming the rim to a semi-rim.
