After spending nearly two years behind bars waiting for trial, a former pastor and accused serial rapist from Summerville has received a chance at getting out of jail.
On Wednesday, a judge set bail at $250,000 for Dale Richardson, 48, who's charged with kidnapping four local women and raping three of them. In August 2011, a judge denied bail on Richardson's charges in Dorchester County, but last month his attorney, Andy Savage, filed a request to the court to reconsider that decision. During a hearing, a group of people showed up to support Richardson. His attorneys argued that denying bail was excessive because Richardson had no prior criminal record and his entire family lives in Summerville.
One of the three women Richardson is accused of raping in 2010 was in the courtroom in opposition to any bail that could lead to his release. Prosecutors argued he would be a danger to the community, according to 1st Circuit Assistant Solicitor Don Sorenson. Circuit Judge Eugene Griffith Jr. mulled it over for a little more than a month before issuing his decision. In addition to setting bail, Griffith ordered certain conditions for Richardson to follow, if he's released.
Richardson must appear for all court dates, he's required to be on GPS monitoring, he must live in his Summerville home where his wife resides. He also must follow a strict sunset-to-sunrise curfew and will be under house arrest with the following exceptions: medical reasons, visiting attorney, visiting church or work.
He is also restricted from having any contact with the alleged victims.
Richardson previously served as head pastor of Freedom Free Will Baptist Church in Lincolnville. On Aug. 12, 2010, Richardson is accused of taking a woman in North Charleston to a trailer behind Freedom Free Will Baptist Church on Lincolnville Road and raping her, according to investigators.
Richardson also is accused of taking a woman that he had picked up on Jan. 5, 2010, in North Charleston to a dirt road off Mallard Road in Summerville and raping her at gunpoint. On July 27, 2010, investigators said he raped another woman behind the same church after picking her up in North Charleston.
Authorities also accuse Richardson of abducting a woman but letting her go without any sexual assault on June 21, 2010.
A trial date has not been set. On Monday morning, Richardson still remained in jail at the Dorchester County Detention Center.

No one knows the size of this last(!) offering before Phase 3 results. I guess it will be at $5. If its more than $5, this will skyrocket in the morning. If its less than $5 (which I doubt so), grab all you can.

On Saturday, the Trenton nonprofit group Isles will hold its 23rd annual House & Garden Tour of 10 homes and gardens, including educational plots manned by city students and residents.
The four-hour tour, during which participants will be shuttled between stops via air-conditioned bus, will begin at 9:30 a.m. at 33 Tucker St. That's the site of the new YouthGrow Garden, an urban horticultural classroom that steeps Trenton students in the science and art of gardening while reinforcing the connections between local food, good health and environmental stewardship. The garden is among 10 student gardens run by Isles, which encourages food growing on formerly vacant lots to improve nutrition among residents of areas where fresh, nutritious produce is scarce. The garden is onsite at the organization's YouthBuild Institute, which offers job training and other services, and its Center for Energy and Environmental Training.
Other tour stops include the Westminster Presbyterian Church garden and that of a single-room-occupancy affordable housing complex. Outdoor space at the Escher SRO includes a goldfish pond, an activity area, and a recently installed hoop house that will extend the community's growing season.
Gary Giberson, founder of Sustainable Fare, an Island Heights food service company that develops environmentally responsible menus for area schools and organizations, will prepare special dishes for a buffet lunch that is included with the event. The outdoor meal will highlight Trenton produce and local dairy farm products.
Tour tickets are $20 for adults and $9 for children under 12. Reservations are required and may be made by purchasing tickets in advance online at isles.org or by calling (609) 341-4739.
Isles, which also is involved in statewide urban agriculture issues and policy, supports 25 community gardens in Trenton. According to the organization, city gardeners harvest more than 50,000 pounds of fresh produce annually. The gardens also help beautify otherwise neglected open spaces.
For 30 years, the organization has tested and developed cost-effective programs to foster self-reliance among Trenton families in healthy, sustainable communities. Isles has been recognized nationally for its work that widely benefits central New Jersey residents.

Panel mounted components are very similar to board mounted components without having to worry about the board at all. We can place them directly into the assembly and then cut the corresponding holes in the enclosure. There's a couple different ways to work with panel mounted components. Number one is I can cut the hole were I need it to be first and then place the connector in it. Or secondly, I can place the connector where I want it and then cut the corresponding hole to size. So in this case here I found an example of, I already cut the hole, and here I have the connector. And we're just going to go over some basic mating techniques, here just bring that in. So we know that right here in the back of this connector, we have a little foam washer here, so we know that's mated face, and I'm going to mate that to this one here.
Bring it together, and then I can still slide this around here. We know that this central face here is going to be inside of here, and if you pick the edge by accident, go back to that, pick that face, make sure you're choosing that face first things first. And then pick this face here those slide together. Now we still have one more degree of freedom as this thing is spinning around, so we want to kind of clock that thing. Couple of different ways we can do that, number one is there is a little tab up here at the top that we can link to, or if I can look inside here, I can see I've got a front plane; we got a top plane, and we have got a right plane.
So if I just show one of those or I can just use it. I can say like that right plane and maybe this right plane. And we'll just those are going to be mated together, and we're going to set at parallel, click OK and that just squares up that connector. So there are a couple different ways you can do that. This component here does have that little key at the top, so make sure that you're using a corresponding cutout and orienting the connector the correct way. The other way we can do this, if I close out of this, is grab that same connector. And now, notice this connector is an assembly so you have a bunch of different parts all in here that build up this assembly.
And sometimes, that's kind of hard to work with when you're building a design because you're having a bunch of subassemblies inside of your design. So one quick way to actually deal with this and make it simpler is to open this connector up, so I'm going to go ahead and click on this, click on Open and as an assembly, you do have a couple of nice things; I can adjust this nut in the back here; I can move it around to make sure I have got the correct panel thickness and adjust a few other things, but when you have got it all perfect we will up here to File>Save As. And, you got a few different options here. I'm going to go ahead and click on Save as copy and continue.
And, then down here, I want to save, not as an assembly, but,you could actually save this out as a part. So, I can save assembly as a part, and I've already done that here in our exercise files. And if you click on, actually those files you can see here, Save as part. And then you can choose do I want to save that exterior faces, exterior components or all components? And I'll go ahead and choose the exterior components, which I will clear out anything in the inside that we're not seeing, so that it makes it a little lighter weight assembly for when we go forward. Click on Save. You can see I've already got it saved, so just go ahead and override it.
And save it as a lynda part, and there it is. Now, I can go and open that part now. If I open as part, click on it, open it. And you can see now, it brings it in as a bunch of solids. But it's all inside of one part. So, it makes it a little easier to bring it in, especially the complicated assembly. And it's bringing it as one part, not as a bunch of subassemblies with nested parts and stuff like that. So just, especially if you're just buying one part number, you don't want all that extra data. So it's a lot better to do it that way, especially if you don't need to manipulate the assembly in your final design. Let's go back over here to the assembly.
Now I can bring in that new part here. Grab the part, drag and drop it in. And again, I can place this in here first, spin it around, and let's get it oriented correctly, so it's going like that, made it up. We're going to click on this face here. Again, pick on that foam on the back. Mate those together. And then bring them in. Now I can finish mating this up and putting it wherever I need to go, but I want to point out that I can now cut a hole in this based upon where this is. So I can make an in context edit, edit part.
Click on that face, start a sketch, and where my sketch is going to be I'm just going to snap it to wherever this outside edge is, and if you can't necessarily see it even though it's, sometimes you have to have to go over the edge, and it will show the center point, and then I can draw out a circle, add a dimension. And I'm going to be getting that dimension value from the data sheet, or you can just reference this part here. So if I change over to wire frame, I can see some of these, see lines inside of here and where they actually are. There's a lot of lines, so sometimes it's a little bit hard to see, but it does give you a nice representation of what's happening behind the scenes, and I can adjust this value here to get the correct size cut out for my connector.
In general, most of the same placement techniques apply to panel meta components as do board meta components. And we get the ability to pattern the components and create cutouts at the same time.

If you're using a stream socket (TCP), it is
perfectly normal.
TCP guarantees only that all octets (bytes) sent
eventually arrive at the destination in the same
order as they are sent.
There's no guarantee whatsoever of correspondence
of the socket write lengths and the lengths of the
packets on wire.
If you want to preserve record boundaries, you have
two options:
- Embed the record boundary markers or record
lengths into the TCP data stream, or
- use UDP (and be prepared for missing and/or mis-
ordered packets).

Happy faux Nevada Day. It's 20 degrees out in the middle of the Valley, but on the benches it's a lot closer to freezing at sunrise today. State and local offices are closed today as are some financial institutions, and there's no school today.
Early voting will be open at the Minden courthouse 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. today. If you're looking for something Nevada to do in the Valley, you could check out the Dangberg Home Ranch where they're offering a tour at 10 a.m. today, or go to the Corley Ranch pumpkin patch and corn maze which is open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
If you're looking for something educational for the kids, the Carson Valley Museum & Cultural Center is open today, or maybe make the run up to Carson to visit the Nevada State Museum or the Northern Nevada Railroad Museum. It's a good day to be a Nevadan, so abuse the privilege by getting in touch with our heritage.
Today's weather certainly will cooperate with mostly sunny skies and a high temperature of 62 degrees. A breath of a northern breeze will come up in the afternoon.

Tallies were made of outcomes of all reasonably controlled comparisons of psychotherapies with each other and with other treatments. For comparisons of psychotherapy with each other, most studies found insignificant differences in proportions of patients who improved (though most patients benefited). This "tie score effect" did not apply to psychotherapies vs psychopharmacotherapies compared singly—psychopharmacotherapies did better. Combined treatments often did better than single treatments. Among the comparisons, only two specially beneficial matches between type of patient and type of treatment were found.
Our explanations for the usual tie score effect emphasize the common components among psychotherapies, especially the helping relationship with a therapist. However, we believe the research does not justify the conclusion that we should randomly assign patients to treatments—research results are usually based on amount of improvement; "amount" may not disclose differences in quality of improvement from each treatment.

Wi-Fi IPhone May Make It to Chinese Market
Apple's belated launch of the iPhone in China last year was dampened for many users by the discovery that the handset did not have Wi-Fi capabilities, but a new Wi-Fi-enabled Chinese iPhone may finally be on the horizon, according to a Chinese government testing body.
The State Radio Monitoring Center, which handles radio frequency testing for handsets released in China, posted an approval notice for a handset by Apple Inc. with wireless Internet capabilities. The listing, dated April 26, doesn't provide enough information to tell whether the device is an iPhone 3GS or a newer model, but says the device includes China's homegrown wireless standard, WAPI.

The first time my wife Janet and I visited Walt Disney World, we stayed off-property. Make that off-off-property.
Back in 1972, you had very few options if you wanted to stay "close to the action." On WDW property, there was the upscale Contemporary and Polynesian resorts, as well as the Fort Wilderness Campground for the more adventurous types. And that was it. Most folks, like us, stayed in quaint motels well north of WDW off International Drive or to the south and west off Route 192.
But staying off-property meant driving to the park (often a half-hour road trip on crowded Route 4), getting herded into the jam-packed parking lot, taking an open-air tram ride (lots of fun in the winter) to the Transportation and Ticket Center (T&TC), waiting on line to buy your tickets, selecting either a monorail or a Staten Island-style ferry boat and then walking the final few hundred yards to the gate with several thousand of your closest friends. Phew. In all, it was more than an hour's trip to get to the Magic Kingdom -- and worse -- way more than an hour to get back to your less-than-inspiring room late at night.
I didn't fully comprehend the concept of staying "close to the action" until we visited Disneyland in 2006. For the first half of our trip, we stayed off-property, but the hotel was right across the street from the main esplanade which separates Disneyland and California Adventure. It was a matter of crossing Harbor Boulevard and walking about five minutes before we were inside either park. Downtown Disney was another few minutes walk past the entrances. Nice.
During the last four nights, we splurged and switched to the Grand Californian, which has the distinction of being the only Disney resort which actually connects to a theme park. All you need to do to enter California Adventure is take an elevator from your room to the ground floor and walk a few feet to an entrance near the main lobby. Even nicer.
Disney often recommends that guests leave a park during the afternoon to relax and refresh -- go for a swim, eat lunch, take a nap -- before returning in the evening. That's all well and good, but if you're staying at a hotel miles away, even on Disney property, that afternoon interlude can become quite tedious.
I mention this because yesterday, Disney's Bay Lake Tower opened for business. To the uninitiated, Bay Lake Tower is the newest Disney Vacation Club property. It's located a stone's throw from the Contemporary Resort and is less than a 10-minute walk to the entrance of the Magic Kingdom. There's even a walkway, called Sky Way Bridge, that links the two resorts, allowing Bay Lake guests to access all of the Contemporary's amenities -- including the monorail station.
It's about as close as you can get to getting "close to the action."
Oddly enough, there were some DVC owners who were opposed to Bay Lake Tower when it was first introduced. Didn't fit in with the ambiance of the other DVC resorts, they said. Plush maybe, but not nearly as lush. And what's up with the modern, contemporary look?
I, for one, thought it was a great idea. Location, as they say in real estate, is everything. As mentioned, it's less than 10 minutes to the Magic Kingdom. A short stroll and you're in the middle of the action ... and when you leave at the end of the day, there's no more waiting on long lines to get aboard crowded buses, monorails or boats.
About halfway between Bay Lake Tower and the Magic Kingdom entrance is a main bus depot, which services every hotel on the property, as well as the Downtown Disney area.
And then there's the convenience of the monorail. You can take it to the Magic Kingdom, of course, or to the Polynesian and Grand Floridian resorts for shopping or dining. Or you can go to the T&TC and hop aboard to get to Epcot. For the really energetic types, you can spend a few hours in Epcot, exit out of World Showcase and take a leisurely boat ride to enjoy all that the Boardwalk area has to offer. Or you can stay on board the boat and continue along to Hollywood Studios.
Bay Lake Tower is the seventh DVC property at WDW. It's 15 stories tall and has 295 villas which offer spectacular views of Bay Lake or the Magic Kingdom -- yes, if you're lucky enough, you can watch the nightly Wishes fireworks spectacular from the comfort of your room.
And that's about as close to the action as you can get.
Walt Disney World is raising the ticket prices for its theme parks for the second time in a year.
The Orlando Sentinel reported Friday that the base price of a one-day, one-park adult ticket will increase from $75 to $79. The same ticket for a child between the ages of 3 and 9 will go from $63 to $68. Prices for the resort's multi-day ticket packages also will rise. The new prices went into effect Sunday.
Disney last raised its admission prices in August 2008. The ticket increases come a day after the Walt Disney Co. announced its third-quarter profit dropped 26 percent, as slower DVD sales pushed its movie studio into the red.

Very Ice
Sometimes the best games aren't the most complicated. Sometimes all it takes is a slope, a skier, a few penguins and some Yeti.
Ski Safari doesn't offer much deviation from the standard endless runner with a tap mechanic. It takes some inspiration from Tiny Wings but manages to carve its own path in the snow thanks to a few neat ideas and great execution.
The premise is that your skier is woken by an avalanche, which knocks down your wooden hut and sends your bed sliding down the slope. Luckily, it seems that you sleep with your skis on as you're soon sliding down the deadly slopes, the ever gaining avalanche as a constant threat behind you and the equivalent of the game's timer. Trip over too many times or spend too long getting up and you'll become a human Popsicle.
There are plenty of opportunities to fall, thanks to rocks placed in your path. These need to be jumped over with a simple tap on the screen. Tap as you hit an upward slope and you'll gain some air, giving you time to do a few somersaults by holding the screen. In the tradition of all good skiing games, you're going to have to land correctly, though and this means ensuring your skis are level with the ground as you make your descent. Hitting the snow at the wrong angle sends you in to a tumble and frantic tapping is the only thing between your continuing and the avalanche burying you. Coming down at the right angle and hitting a certain speed will give you a quick speed boost, though, so it's all worth the risk.
Also in your path are penguins and Yeti. Far from being a hindrance, running into them gives you another speed boost by allowing them to give you a lift. Penguins lay on their tummies while Yeti run along with you on their back. Both give you an extra layer of protection against hitting the rocks, with the Yeti being sent into a slide once it trips over. Added to this you have an eagle who gives you a literal lift at a certain point in the game, a jetski for an extra push and some underground caves to slide through.
All of this is wrapped up in some pretty cute presentation. While it doesn't have much of a story, the way the start of the game has been created and the wonderful animation of the characters gives you all you really need. The Yeti, in particular, are worth playing the game for alone. Some variety in the scenery would have been nice but I can see this being added in future updates.
Taking a cue from Tiny Wings and Jetpack Joyride, Ski Safari has a series of challenges which allow you to progress every time three objectives are met. This, in turn, allows you to get a head start by giving you various items right from the start of the game. What it doesn't do so well is allow you to compare scores and progress against other players.
Gamecenter support is available and this gives you the standard worldwide high score charts, but an in game system would be preferable here, one that gives you both a score and your level of progress to match against friends and globally. Tiny Wings really took off because of this and I could see Ski Safari doing the same if this was included. I still think this is a great game and well worth downloading if you like your endless runners, but personally I would love to see the social integration aspect there as well.
Scoretable issues aside, Ski Safari is an excellent addition to the genre and offers up a lot of replay value. The simple control system and excellent characters make it easy to recommend to those looking for their next big endless runner title.

Junior quarterback Reggie Green's first season behind center has been more than his Cranford teammates and coaching staff could have dreamed.
Green rushed for 194 yards and two long touchdowns as Cranford defeated Colonia, 34-0, in the NJSIAA North Jersey, Section 2, Group 3 semifinals in Colonia on Saturday. Green and his teammates enabled Cranford to reach the sectional final for the first time in school history.
The 6-3, 200-pound Green is elusive, strong and, as he proved on his 60-yard touchdown run on the game's first play, very fast. He played in the slot last year in Cranford's spread attack before coach Erik Rosenmaier opted to utilize Green's talent behind center.
Green busted loose around right end behind a sealing block by wideout Ryan Williamson and was off to the races to give Cranford a 7-0 lead. He went through left tackle on the second play of the fourth quarter and broke free for a 54-yard TD run that lifted the lead to 34-0.
Green went over the 2,000-yard mark for combined rushing and passing yards on the season. He has rushed for 1,308 yards and 16 touchdowns and passed for 774 yards and six scores. That brings his total for combined yards this season to 2,082. He's accounted for 22 touchdowns.
While Green has proven to be a capable runner on the edges, he spends much of his time carrying the ball between the tackles. His success there is a reflection, too, of a brutally efficient offensive line.
That line boasts center Jeff Weiss, tackles Matt Russo, Mike Klimek and Kurt Rutmayer and guards Robert O'Shaughnessy and T.J. Nichols.

My son is 8 and in 3rd grade (November baby so started K at
Customer Question
My son is 8 and in 3rd grade (November baby so started K at 4). He is a very smart and above his level on all subjects. Throught out school his major issue is staying on task and using his time wisely. Since starting 3rd the issue has gotten worse. He usually had the most problems during math. (Although GE does very well in the subject and understands concepts taugh), he has said many times that GE does not like math....I have tried many approaches to help him understand the importance of this subject to ni avail. When given incentives at home he does work in 5 minutes that other times has taken up to 2 hours! He has always loved school and has always been an A student effortlessly, he has been reading well since kindergarten and LOVES to read. He is a very good kid respectful and kind to others, he not a a fighter and loves sports as much as he loves school. I have discussed this with the school principal who reassures me Joey is just acting his age. But his he gets sent home daily having to do lines where he rights 15 times what he did wrong. I am very concerned now because he is starting to voice that he doesn't like school. Also last week he received an F for the first time on a math test because he chose not to complete it...yesterday he complained of stomach ache early in the morning and actually threw up. I kept him home and later in the morning he said he felt fine and wanted to play. Of course I told him that if he felt better and dud not need to rest in bed he could then do assignments from work books I have at home (i gave him mostly math) he did all of it with much prompting and occasional reading breaks. Around noon he felt he was well enough to go to school but I kept him home and we followed my plan of doing work and reading with meals in between. Im at a loss as to how to help him get over this aversion he has for math and his disruptive behavior in class when he chooses nit to do his work. HELP! P.S sorry for spelling errors am typing on my phone.

Hello and thank you for consulting Just Answer. I am sorry to hear about the mathematical and behavioral difficulties that your son is experiencing. Could you be so kind as to provide a little more background information so that I can understand the situation better. Does your son have the same teacher for math and reading? Have you discussed the issue with his teacher? Have you observed your son during class time? Does he know his basic facts of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division well? Has a close friend recently moved away? Thank you!

He has not had any major changes in family or friends. Yes I have discussed this issue on an ongoing basis with his teacher. He has I teacher all day. He knows all his math facts well, his teacher also recognizes that he knows and is capable of doing his work he just chooses not to do it because he doesn't like math..

With regards XXXXX XXXXX math issue, you and hopefully his teacher must make it fun and challenging. If the material is too easy at school, your son will become bored and then behavior problems will result. Make sure the mathematical instruction is differentiated and tailored to meet the needs of your son. To help at home, you can visit a website called Khan Academy. There are entertaining instructional videos that kids love. Also, you may purchase educational computer games to foster a love of math in your son. Get ahold of the math situation first. Visit the school and observe your son during math time. One or two visits can tell you a great deal about what is really happening in the classroom. Something or someone is causing your son's aversion to math. It is more than just a maturity issue because he sounds very bright. Maybe the teacher said something one day that hurt his feelings. Maybe he is not at the top of the class when it comes to testing and he is putting too much pressure on himself. Make sure that you are not putting academic pressure on him as well. He has many years of schooling to come!

I have already sat in on his class and did not observe anything irregular, actually as is expected sonetimes when someone is being observed, he was in his best behavior. In 2nd grade he had similar issue and behavior problems occurred during math...was given 3rd grade math did well but still would require unlimited prompting to complete.....problem continues. As far as resting, he scores 95-100% even after not doing assignments in class all week. Oral math exams high scores as well. All other subjects averages 100% all the time. I ask about how his days go he is always honest and admits to his not completing math assignments and occasionally others. Since start of 3rd asked him on a daily basis about teacher Ans his feelings towards her...always positive, yet thus issue arise early on into third grade
replied 4 years ago.
I would suggest that you speak with the school psychologist. He/she can observe your son and then schedule counseling sessions with him so that he is held accountable for his actions during math time. If he is performing well without putting forth the effort, then he may be naturally gifted in math. Has your son specifically stated why he does not like Math? You need to connect math to real life situations so he can see the value and importance of knowing math.

He does need to be put on a behavior contract at school with regards XXXXX XXXXX He seems to know how to manipulate this situation. He needs to be rewarded when he does complete assignments and put forth the effort. Try not to focus so much on the negative because that route does not seem to be beneficial.

Have had many talks about the importance of math and gave many examples of real life situations where he would use it, he is very science focused and wants to be a marine biologist and paleontologist knows what it would require has talked to paleontologist on one of many trips to museums and they and I have stressd the importance of math. I have a very open communication with my son I am a single mom work full time since he was 2. Nothing is different no new people in my life to cause stress. We talk openly about many things because his reading involves mostly nonfiction. I really have tried all the common sense stuff and as I said earlier tried some behaviour mod to no avail because after a while it stops working and he reverts to the undesirable behavior. I have not found the reinforcer that would change the behavior permanently or even for significant time span. He is otherwise an amazing smart interesting little man. Can hold a conversation on many subjects even math yet refuses to do much in class....at first I was not extremely concerned because he was in the high 90s in testing but now refuses to do that. Im at a dead end feel helpless and unable to help him who is my only concern.

Hello...your son is probably bored with the way math is being taught. He needs to be provided with innovative ways to be taught math. Also, a tutor may be quite helpful to motivate your son's interest since he is not responding to you nor to his current teacher. The tutor can provide enrichment activities. You may want to invest in a private tutor or a local tutoring center like Kumon if that is in your neighborhood. Your son needs stimulating math activities to make it fun. Actually, many children dislike math but develop an acceptance of it. Third grade is a critical grade of learning many new concepts as is fifth grade ....in elementary school.

The historic eatery originally opened as The German American Restaurant in 1928. It closed its downtown location when the nearby parking structure closed and business plummeted. Two years later, it reopened on Zeeb Road, and customers came back.
"We were packed day and night for six months," Moore said.
Proximity to I-94 helped, Moore said, but it was a gamble nevertheless. "When we moved here there was nothing, but we're starting to get more businesses out here."
The menu's staples are still traditional German dishes - wiener schnitzel, sauerbraten, potato pancakes, and even pig hocks for old-timers. But the reopening near I-94 also brought a variety of American selections like salads, sandwiches, steak, chicken and fish.
Metzger's is celebrating its 80th anniversary this year with an 80 percent-off dinner on Dec. 8 and several other events throughout the year. Anyone born in 1928 gets a free meal on his or her birthday. "We've actually had a couple," said Moore, noting that a good amount of clients are elderly and come regularly. "We have about 20 customers who come in every day for lunch or dinner," he said.
Metzger's hosts a happy hour Monday through Friday 3-6 p.m., which includes $1 off steins, mixed drinks and glasses of wine, as well as $2 off appetizers.

Reduce, Reuse, and Retail Recycle: How to Get Creative with Retail Trends
It's hard to forget some things. Years ago, stumbling through an antique shop someplace, I came across a biplane made entirely out of Red Dog beer cans. Yep. Red Dog. There was so little shame, here, that they didn't even feel the need to bother with even a marginally better-quality beer. Either that, or they just sold the entire squadron of Milwaukee's Best prior to me coming in the shop.
I thought to myself, "I'm all for recycling, but man, beer can planes? That's gotta be pushing it."
One man's trash is another man's biplane, I guess. But the artist, whoever it was, did make a conscious effort to recycle something. The sentiment of it, at least, was admirable and Captain Planet would most certainly approve of this beer-can-MacGyver.
Paper airplanes are about as technically complicated as I'm willing to get when it comes to the business of domestic aviation construction, and although my skills sets didn't match those of the artist, it did cause me to take a moment and think, "Well, how could I be a little more environmentally-friendly?"
My answer?
I take the looks and clothes I see in fashion magazines and store advertisements, and put them together for a fraction of the cost, with used or vintage items.
Here's my latest adventure:
The other week, while I was finishing up the final details on my "J.Crew at the Liquor Store" post, I was assembling the photographs I wanted to feature in the article, and came across one of a table with nice wristwatches on it. Round-faced, plain-dialed, and two-handed, they looked like the kind of watch your dad would wear. Or your dad's dad, even. Cool. Classic. Basic. J.Crew updated them with new, military-style nylon bands in bold colors, hoping to make them appealing to a younger generation. Well, mission accomplished by J.Crew. I wanted one immediately after seeing it.
Turns out that innocent-looking timekeeping device was a wallet-devouring monster.
The pricetag? $3,995.
The brand? Omega: the brand worn by Daniel Craig in the new James Bond films.
(My guess is Bond spend so much time at that Texas Hold 'Em table at the Casino Royale to pay off some of his wristwear collection).
J.Crew does offer a more affordable version. Their designers collaborated with Timex to produce a timepiece modeled after vintage military wristwear. It's only the small sum of $150.
Well, it looked like my anticipated vintage wristwatch-buying spending spree at J.Crew's Men Shop wasn't going to happen anytime soon.
It was a simple idea, though: take an older watch, ditch the standard, leather band, and replace it with something a little more colorful and modern.
Logging onto Ebay, I searched around for an older Timex watch.
Quite a few came up in my search results, but my eye kept darting back to one from the 1950's. Mechanical, meaning "I've still got to wind it" (or, in more basic terms, the "tick-tock, tick-tock" kind). Almost 60 years old, and still working just fine. Since it was used – and since the strap would have to be replaced – I could get it for a deal, replace the strap myself, and make my own version of the watch I'd seen in the store pictures.
Watch? Check. Just needed a band like the one I'd seen.
I messaged the seller, telling him why I purchased the watch, and asking if he could offer me any advice on where to find the kind of band I was looking for. He not only got back to me, but even better, said he could duplicate the watch I showed him: he'd a few straps of the sort in his shop, and he'd gladly replace it, free-of-charge.
Strap? Check. And, just like that, and hour of Ebay-ing later, I'd the same watch.
It finally came in the mail yesterday, and looks almost exactly the same as the one from J.Crew. Well, minus a few thousand dollars, plus some serious awesome points for myself.
It doesn't hurt, either, than I spared another homeless watch from becoming yet another item for the city dump. What's better than budget-friendly? Eco-friendly.
And that's how I recycle.
Do you purchase used items to save money? Are there any unique or unconventional ways in which you recycle? If so, what are they and what inspired your own recycling?

Ye gods, that's a lot for a watch!!
I'm a constant thrift store haunter. 🙂 And it's not just to save (though that plays a large role). Sometimes you can find some of the neatest things secondhand! I love to find awesome used items and give them a new home either with myself or as gifts for friends. I have a hard time leaving a thrift store without a cart full of books and a few other things that happened to catch my eye. One of my recent finds was a really cool vintage men's fedora from the 1940's for less than $10. I'm a sucker for hats and bought it without even looking in the mirror to check it out. Who can resist that kind of recycling?
I agree Juliette! I also find all kinds of neat things in thrift stores. I love when you can find a very nice quality piece or a good brand for much less $ than the cheaper brand, new from a store. I recently bought our friend's little boy 10 hardcover books that looked brand new for only $2.50–yes, only $0.25 each. Those would have cost probably $150 in a store. I love thrift stores!!
You want used books? Amazon. They've folks that'll sell them for a penny, and all you pay is S&H. Even if S&H is $2.99, that's $3 for a book delivered to your door! Just bought one the other day I wanted for years from Ebay…a big, comprehensive collection of every built structure by Frank Lloyd Wright. Retails for around $100, and I couldn't ever afford it. Caught it by chance on Ebay…$24! Win! Am I missing anything from not having it brand new? Not at all. Actually, they've changed the look and layout of the book, and this one I own is the same printing I spent my childhood checking-out monthly from the library. Sometimes the old stuff's the better stuff. 🙂
Half.com is another great place for used books. I've found many an awesome deal on there. 🙂
Jealous. Men's hats were something back in the day, and every man should've owned one if he knew what was good for him. That said, they were made well, and if taken care of, would pretty much last a guy a lifetime. Doesn't surprise me that they still turn up. Awesome bargain, too! There's a shop in the city that started making hats for "Public Enemies" and now is making steady business helping costume Hollywood films. I'd love to have one of their hats, but those things go for hundreds of bucks!
You find the neatest things, absolutely, and things that'll last you through the years. It's hard to find something not mass-manufactured, and owned by every fifth person in the nation.
Kudos for some awesome finds, and for recycling, Juliette!
Your finished watch looks awesome, Eric! I love hearing about how people repurpose items, they just have so much more charm than something that was mass produced.
I personally haven't done this before, but I've heard of other people doing it so it can't be that hard. Again, a very cool idea!
Here's the catch: never fall for a retailer's "re-purposed" wares. It's crazy, but a trend caught on that has stores selling hand-picked, one-of-a-kind items, and marking them up big time. It came from ITALY??? Well, sure. It can come from a thrift store in Italy, and still be Italian, but that doesn't mean it needs a 500% markup.
Etsy.com is a little more reasonable for stuff like this, and most the folks making it do it for a living, or for supplemental income. That's about as local a business as a person could support, so I've always considered it a good cause. And they're usually a lot cheaper than the retail stores.
Sure, you could set up a paper-making process in your home, and recycle all your old newspapers and bills…but if you're looking for something a little less messy and a whole lot simpler, buy a used book. Give that fedora another lease on life. Those are ways you can recycle, too!
How am I eco-friendly? Let me count the ways… I have always been an eco-conscious person, though I do have my times when I still could be better and I always strive to be. I recently have fallen madly in love with Up-Cycling (especially furniture). It is easy for me because I have already done this stuff for years, but now it's trendy so I don't feel so weird modifying and adorning what most people would throw away! If I had the means to make a house with everything inside all completely up-cycled I would be happy as a pig in…….well, we'll just say re-using his refuse! 😉 Great post!!!
Preachin'. To. The. Choir.
Honestly, here's my thinking:
A.) Spending less money in an economic recession? Good.
B.) Saving something from being thrown in a dump? Also good.
C.) Having something no longer made? It means it's going to be a lot more original than those hundreds of coffee tables boxed-up and flat-packed at the IKEA.
D.) And hell…things that're old got to be old because they were well-built. I highly doubt – speaking of IKEA – you'll see any funny-named, hex-wrench-assembled side table make it to be a century old. They should give a Guinness Record if someone's ever makes it through four years of college!
HA! Eric, again you crack me up. And I 100% agree with you. The older stuff, most of the time, is made better. =) And if you can buy it cheaper, and save it from the landfill–total win! Excellent post! And awesome watch, that thing looks like it could have been right alongside the ones in that case going for tons of money.
Your new watch looks awesome, Eric! Honestly, I even like it more than the $4,000 one! It's great that you found such a cool ebay seller that you hook you up with the new strap. Ebay sellers that know all about the products they sell and that are willing to go above and beyond on the sale are a rarity. But when you find them, it makes that shopping experience amazing.
I can't say that I've done this myself for clothing/accessories, but I also know zip about fashion. My motto is: "Does it fit? Does it look okay? Is it under $30? Sold." I'm big into buying used books, though. It's how I've collected a lot of literary classics. My friend once picked me up a copy of Oscar Wilde's Complete Works that was published in the early 1920s from a recycling center. FOR FREE. It's one of my most treasured possessions, and it's definitely cheaper than the $25 new version at Barnes & Noble.
Thanks, Mandy!
The folks Ebay are usually pretty cool. I've always preferred finding someone who runs a mom 'n pop operation because they'll always make sure to add those little touches that sets them apart.
Far as fashion goes: I'll see a look or an outfit in a magazine, say, GQ. I'll go on Ebay, and search for the kinds of pieces I saw. Sometimes I'll find the exact item, used or discounted, or sometimes I'll find something I like better.
Free? Well, you can't beat that. Nice save, both financially and in terms of eco-friendliness! I've never been lucky enough to score a book like that…my library sells books phased out of their collection all the time, but never anything of note. Makes me wonder if I should dumpster-dive the Newberry Library, et al…
I don't even know how my friend found it. It was in Naperville, so I like to imagine that some late billionaire donated his collection to the public library. The library couldn't use them all, so it ended up at that recycling center/museum/whatever. But hey, someone's loss is my gain.
If you ever go dumpster-diving at the Newberry, I'll be more than happy to accompany you. I could give all of those rare books a good home.
One of the most famous guitars of all time, Eric Clapton's "Blackie," was created in almost the same manner. He bought three beat up and virtually worthless guitars, picked the best parts of each to make one fine axe, and the rest is history.
I love the "essence" of this post. I try to do things like this all the time. Not only for fiscal reasons, but more so that you get something UNIQUE every time. It's not the same mass quantity consumer good that everyone else has. And I'll care about for much longer too…
#$%^ing Clapton. I wish I had the budget to find three vintage American Strats, and Frankenstein them all together like he did. Smart guy. Want the ultimate in playability and tone? Take the best parts of three guitars, and make one really awesome guitar. And thus, he made Blackie.
Think you hit the nail on the head in the last paragraph, there, my friend: UNIQUE. I hate, hate, hate getting something out-of-the-box, or off-the-rack, that I know 45789789443 other people have got. If you can make it unique yourself? All the better. I literally paid for some luthier to beat the uniqueness into my guitar. Good news is, I won't ever have to feel sore about dinging or denting it again. Awesome.
Really cool post, Eric! I love what you did with the watch, I actually do the same thing with jewelry I already own. I get really bored with the same thing, so when I break a necklace I keep the beads/charms, to make a new piece. I never pay full retail price for any of my necklaces or earrings and I get multiple looks from them. It's really easy but a little time consuming and strenuous on the hands if it not something your used to…so I don't do it too often, but I enjoy it when I can. 🙂
Really smart idea, Jen, and I guess it must be nice never having to worry about breaking something, knowing you could just make something even better out of it. To be honest, that's a skill to be admired nowadays. Years ago, if something broke, you usually only had one option: fix it yourself. Buying a new one would be too pricey, and you'd be crazy to toss it out. It's AMAZING how many people, these days, will break something and then have to seek out a professional for a simple little repair. Respect points for that!
Some things I get. But four grand for a damn watch? Yeah. Beats me, too. Sure, it tells the time. So does the $35 Fossil I wear every day (thanks again, Ebay).
Problem? Not being able to tell the time. The you can get the same solution for $50 or $4000.
Amen on those endtables. I saw some I liked in a Restoration Hardware, but, it being the store it is, they were anything but affordable. Cool? Yes. Expensive? Hell yes. Had them on my mind for awhile. Well, I was down in Coal City, where Shelley's folks live, and we were browsing through a craft store, there. They've a local artist and furniture maker who takes reclaimed barn wood and makes tables, shelves, cabinets from 'em. They'd actual history. They were repurposed. They looked good. Okay, so, they've got to be expensive, right? Nope. Think the most expensive one I saw was a couple hundred bucks, which won't get you so much as a table leg at RH. Plus it supports a local business and artist.
Props to you, Jill, and the rest of y'all at QLP doing your part of upcycling.
