The Pennsylvania Supreme Court granted approval Thursday for prosecutors to use secret grand juries to indict suspects - a step that justices say would provide law enforcement with a crucial tool to safeguard frightened witnesses.
The high court's unanimous adoption of the policy permits indicting grand juries statewide, but the move was directed at Philadelphia, where a "no snitching" culture and ugly threats in courtrooms and on the street have created a toxic atmosphere for victims and witnesses.
Under the change, witnesses would testify behind closed doors before 23-member grand juries, which would then have the power to indict. This would spare the witnesses from having to testify in public in preliminary hearings, though they would still have to testify publicly during a trial.

LEBANON, Pa. -- Investigators in Lebanon are calling an early-morning townhouse fire suspicious.
The blaze was discovered about 5:30 a.m. in the 400 block of North Cherry Street.
Firefighters said they think three separate fires were set in one of the four units in the building.
All of the units have been condemned, some because of fire damage and others because electrical problems were discovered after the fire was put out.
As many as 20 residents could be affected. No injuries were reported.

This is the third and, as the title reassuringly indicates, the last chapter of the Omen trilogy, which started back in 1976. You may remember that young Damien Thorn is the Antichrist, an altogether nasty sort potent enough to do away with both Gregory Peck and William Holden. Now, it seems, he has grown up to be a titan of industry, U.S. ambassador to England and a likely candidate for President. Things look bleak indeed for the human race. As in earlier installments, Damien systematically eliminates anyone who looks at him sideways—often dispatching them in ingenious fashion. Directed by Graham Baker, darkly hand-some Sam (My Brilliant Career) Neill gives the devil his due in the central role, yet his diabolical soliloquies seem more silly than sinister. The loyal opposition is provided by a band of Italian monks and a talk-show hostess played by Lisa (All Things Bright and Beautiful) Harrow. A slight improvement on Omen II, this is the most predictable of the Damien series, and moviegoers may say a hearty amen to the revelation that they have been delivered from this particular cinematic evil.

County transportation plan underscores dire need for more funding
October 9, 2013
The proposed 20-year transportation plan for Lycoming County unveiled at Tuesday's Williamsport Area Transportation Study meeting acted as a sort of weathervane....
"We have to spend half of our (federal) money on bridges that are already in good shape," Murawski said. "When we have a credible plan put together locally, the federal government should listen to it. I think I know my roads better than the guys in Washington."
Another example of why education, transportation, environmental protection, health, etc. should NOT be administered from Washington DC!

Food Assistance and Nutrition Research Report No. (FANRR-34-10) 2 pp, July 2003
The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is the major Federal resource available to provide children from low-income families with nutritious meals when school is not in session. Small in comparison with the National School Lunch Program, which served 15.5 million children in 2001, the SFSP served 2.1 million children. Growing interest in improving SFSP operations and expanding participation led USDA to commission the first comprehensive examination of the program since 1986. This brief presents findings from the study.

Dallas will soon, for the first time, have reliable data on hike-and-bike trail usage
The Dallas Park and Recreation Department will soon – for the first time – have reliable data on how many people are using the city's growing hike-and-bike trail system.
The City Council on Wednesday approved a $266,000 contract to install and operate 25 electronic people counters along four major paths: the Katy Trail, the Northaven Trail, the trail around White Rock Lake and one in Kiest Park.
The counters, set to be installed this spring, will eventually be used at other trails, parks and possibly even recreation centers.
The equipment improves upon prior efforts to every so often manually count pedestrians and bikers along some trails. Officials said the data will help them make better decisions on planning future growth, directing maintenance crews and assigning police patrols.
"I was amazed at the dearth of information that we had," Mayor Mike Rawlings said, recalling his tenure as president of the Dallas Park and Recreation Board. "I don't know how you run a system this large without data."
The Park Board had previously approved the proposal – which will place four people counters each at the Katy Trail and Keist Park, five at the Northaven Trail and 12 at White Rock Lake.
The people-counting equipment involves relatively simple technology, as we explained in November:
[It's] a combination of infrared and inductive-loop sensors that can capture surprisingly detailed information. The counters can distinguish between pedestrians and cyclists. They can tell which way people are going. They can track use over time to produce a clear picture of traffic along a given trail.
A few council members on Wednesday raised questions about the program.
Philip Kingston said it seemed premature to use the technology, given that the system is still growing and that those dollars might be better used to actually build trails. Tennell Atkins wanted to make sure that more trails in southern Dallas would be incorporated.
And Sandy Greyson expressed concern that the counters might inadvertently create a trail system of haves and have-nots.
"I don't want to see that system used in a way that certain trails are getting more resources than others," she said. "All the trails need to look good."
Park director Willis Winters assuaged most of those worries by saying that the people counters shouldn't do anything other than improve the city's trail and park offerings – current and future. The council ultimately approved the item unanimously.

You know that secret game mode that Valve have been hinting at since E3 for Left 4 Dead 2? Well thanks to an event in San Francisco last night, we can report that the new mode is called "Scavenge" and will deal a much quicker and much more manic experience.
Joystiq are reporting that the objective of the competitive game type is for the survivors to gather gas cans that are situated around one of the game's 6 confined locations and fuel a generator before a two minute countdown expires. Each gas can adds 20 seconds to the timer, of which there are 16 in total.
Woah, it's not that easy though... the survivors will have to contended with an opposing team of Special Infected - and standard zombies of course - and it is said to be a great mode for two of the new Special Infected - namely the Jockey and the Spitter - to come in to their own.
If you're in the UK at the end of the month, the new mode, Scavenge, will be playable at the Eurogamer Expo.
who im sorry to say underwhelmed. might be a lot better when i get to play it though
PSN daviduk2000
Gamertag daviduk2000
sounds pretty cool actually. Survivor with an objective.
"We've all been down this path before
You're trapped in this town
And it wears you down
When we leave today maybe you'll understand
That this constant struggle isn't always in the palm of our hands."

Special Report, Port Orchard Elections: The City Council
Click here for a City Hall audio election guide
Port Orchard voters have a large pool of City Council hopefuls to choose from in this Novembers election, with five different seats up for grabs.
Incumbent appointed Councilman Robert Putaansuu is running unopposed, but incumbents and newcomers have contestants for each position.
Longtime Council members John Clauson and Rick Wyatt are each facing the first opponents of their political careers.
After more than 45 years on the Council, Councilman Robert Geiger decided to not seek another term, opening the position up for a new face on the board.
Heres a quick overview of each of the races:
Incumbent Rita DiIenno will seek a second term on the Council, and faces newcomer James Colebank.
DiIenno is the president and business agent for Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1384. DiIenno said she wants to run again following the accomplishments of the current council to work together and come to a compromise.
DiIenno believes the council has not always sought out a middle ground, but, The last years been much more comfortable to work with the council, she said.
She also hopes to implement the development ideas outlined in the EDAW plan, which some have said has been shelved and forgotten by the Council.
I dont believe its on the shelf, DiIenno said.
Colebank continues to pursue a political position in Port Orchard. When Tye Moore left the Port Orchard City Council, Colebank applied but Putaansuu was selected instead.
Since then, Colebank has continued to attend public meetings.
Colebank was previously a program manager for the Business and Strategic Planning Office at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard.
Colebank is not running specifically against DiIenno, but wished to seek a position on the council and opted for her seat.
He has been uncritical of the Downtown Overlay District, assuming that the current Council has made its decision after a lot of consideration.
I dont like Monday morning quarterbacking anything, Colebank said.
Clauson, who has been on the City Council for six terms, faces Cindi Lucarelli in this election. Lucarelli is one of many downtown residents disappointed by the Councils decision on the Overlay District.
Clauson is the service development director for Kitsap Transit, and Lucarelli is an independent business owner.
Lucarelli said she wants to update an implement the EDAW and incremental annexation. She has questioned the building sizes of potential developments, citing the small-town character of Port Orchard and the impact on traffic.
We already have a congested traffic situation every day in our downtown, of which the hundreds of commuters passing through are not supporting our local businesses, Lucarelli said.
Clauson wants to continue to work on economic development in the area. He said Port Orchard is one of the few cities in Washington that does not require impact fees for new developments, and worries over the growing costs in the citys budget.
Its fast approaching the level that the revenue stream thats coming in from things like property tax and sales tax will not be able to cover it, Clauson said.
Incumbent Rick Wyatt opted to run again for his seat after considering running for mayor, and now faces Fred Olin, who has stated he is running specifically against Wyatt.
Wyatt is the owner of Ricks Barber Shop and has been on the Council for 12 years. Olin is a retired high school vice principal and educator.
Olin blames Wyatt for derailing the EDAW plan, arguing that Wyatt voted to accept the plan, but then voting against implementing it.
I felt that we had been betrayed, Olin said.
Wyatt said he supported the EDAW plan and notes that he was one of just seven members of the Council.
Wyatt ultimately decided to run again because of the large number of open positions in this election.
I feel that I have some experience that I can pass on to our citizens and to our new council members, Wyatt said.
The at-large seat, held previously by Geiger, is the only one with all new faces.
Jerry Childs, who took the lead in the primary, and Dick Fitzwater are both running for the position.
Childs is a Seattle Fire Department captain and is retiring at the end of this year. Fitzwater was previously manager of Karcher Creek Sewer District.
Childs came into the race following his involvement in the conversation on the Downtown Overlay District. Having attended a number of meetings, he saw areas where he thought he could improve the process.
He said he hopes to bring the Council in closer communication with residents and has proposed holding Council meetings outside of City Hall and in specific neighborhoods, inviting residents to attend and discuss the concerns of their neighborhood.
Fitzwater said the Council has lost its ability to make decisions quickly and hopes to streamline the decision-making process and help the planning and engineering staff respond quickly to residents.

Does Morgantown need a ballpark?
April 4, 2013
MORGANTOWN — Does West Virginia University's Department of Intercollegiate Athletics really need a new baseball park? I don't happen to think that it does at this time....
Another attack by Mickey. Hawley Field was the laughing stock of the Big East, how do you think it stacks up in the Big 12. Maybe Mickey should ask himself why WVU is playing games in Charleston and Beckley.

Once again Mickey just dosent get it. Improving facilities to the same level as the other schools we are competing in is never a bad idea. Ohh, and as for themoney to do this...we can pay for it with the additional 20 mil we will be getting each year from the league media deal.

Awful Smell08/05/2014
The first thing I noticed about my 'Take Out' dinner when I opened the styrofoam box was the smell. I had ordered Mongolian Beef & it smelled like raw meat. It didn't taste half bad but then again, it didn't taste half good either. I just couldn't get past that smell. I also ordered a an egg roll & what I got were 4 tube like things that were quite crispy & not all that bad, especially with the sweet sauce. It was just too bad there wasn't enough sauce for all for all the rolls. The container the sauce came in was only 1/4 full & since I was charged $7 for the egg roll, I feel they could have included more of the sauce. Over all, I was greatly disappointed. Oh & the name of this restaurant is Pho Vietnam 4 .........FYI

Hi folks,
I'm a Mac developer with extensive experience with early music, and am about to embark on a project to create an application to typeset music in the style of Magni, Gardano, and the other early Venetian music publishers. In my past as a baroque violin performer, I found that playing music from facsimile was a much more satisfying and enlightening experience than playing from modern score.
At the same time, sometimes it wasn't possible to comfortably play from a reproduction of the original. The Rost Manuscript comes to mind, which is spoiled with spilled ink, bleed-through of notes, etc.
Years ago, I created for my own purposes a music font that more-or-less echoed what the early venetian publishers put on their pages, but to tell the truth, Finale (1.0, mind you) wasn't really up to the task.
So I figured now would be the time to write an application which properly typesets music that would have been published in the style of the big publishers like Gardano, etc. This includes some music from Italy, France and Germany in the first half of the 17th century.
Is this project something that others would be interested in seeing to its completion? If so, what are the things most important to you in a "fake" facsimile? If you think it's not a good idea, why not? I'd be interested in hearing about those opinions too.
Thanks much!

Children's Hospital in Seattle Selects Dr. Benjamin Wilfond as Director of the Treuman Katz Center for Pediatric Bioethics
Children's Hospital today named Benjamin Wilfond, MD, as director of the Treuman Katz Center for Pediatric Bioethics and chief of the Division of Pediatric Bioethics in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Washington (UW). This is the nation's first center dedicated solely to the study of ethical issues related to research and health care for children, and the first Division of Pediatric Bioethics in a Department of Pediatrics at a medical school.
"Dr. Wilfond's appointment is the result of an extensive, international search for the highest caliber physician-researcher and educator with the unique combination of medical leadership and demonstrated commitment to pediatric bioethics," said F. Bruder Stapleton, MD, pediatrician-in-chief at Children's Hospital and chairman of the Department of Pediatrics at the UW School of Medicine. "His experience and reputation ensures that the center will become a valuable forum for patients, families, researchers and physicians from across the country to collaborate and discuss vital ethical issues."
Currently, Dr. Wilfond is head of the Bioethics and Social Policy Unit in the Behavioral and Social Research Branch at the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI). He is the founder and chair of the NHGRI Institutional Review Board. He is also the head of the Section on Ethics and Genetics in the Department of Clinical Bioethics at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center. Additionally, Wilfond is an adjunct associate professor for the Department of Health, Behavior and Society, at the Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University and a visiting associate professor at the Department of Pediatrics, School of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University. "While bioethics has often been at the edge of pediatric practice, the unprecedented institutional support from Children's Hospital creates potential for the center to become the driving force to move bioethics into the mainstream of pediatric scholarship and clinical practice," said Wilfond.
"I am excited about this opportunity because of the unique environment created by Children's Hospital and the Department of Pediatrics at UW School of Medicine, which has already had a presence in pediatric bioethics for more than a decade," said Wifond. "The commitment from Children's to create a center to study the ethical issues related to pediatric health services delivery, research and genetics will improve the health care environment for children and their families."
Dr. Wilfond received his undergraduate degree from Muhlenberg College in Allentown, Pa. and his medical degree from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey in Newark, N.J. He completed his pediatrics residency at the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics in Madison, Wis. and fellowship in pediatric pulmonary and medical ethics at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, Wis.
About the Treuman Katz Center for Pediatric Bioethics
Launched in December 2004 as a resource for patients, parents, health care providers and researchers, the center's purpose is fourfold:
The study of pediatric bioethics is particularly challenging because it requires more than simply adapting the concepts applied to adult health care. Delivering health care to children and involving children in research raises different questions. For example, the extent in which a child can participate in the decision-making for his or her health care varies with each child and each situation. The relationship and communication that occur between a parent, health care provider or researcher, and a child are critical in assuring that the interests of the child are appropriately advocated.
The center was named last year by Children's Hospital's Board of Trustees to honor retiring CEO Treuman Katz, in recognition for his interest in pediatric bioethics.
The conduct of vaccine research in the developing world and the response to parents who refuse vaccines for their children in the US will be debated at the Center's second annual conference July 14 and 15 in Seattle. For more information about the Center or the annual conference, please visit Bioethics.
Consistently ranked as one of the best children's hospitals in the country by U.S. News & World Report, Seattle Children's serves as the pediatric and adolescent academic medical referral center for the largest landmass of any children's hospital in the country (Washington, Alaska, Montana and Idaho). For more than 100 years, Seattle Children's has been delivering superior patient care while advancing new treatments through pediatric research. Seattle Children's serves as the primary teaching, clinical and research site for the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Washington School of Medicine. The hospital works in partnership with Seattle Children's Research Institute and Seattle Children's Hospital Foundation.

Latest Weather Blog
A repeat?
Today will be more or less a repeat of Wednesday's weather. More patchy fog to start off the morning, and more hot and steamy conditions. Rain chances are stil a little lower today thanks to an area of high pressure in the southeast, but a stray pop up thunderstorm is not impossible. We'll reach the lower 90's again today with partly sunny skies and cool down overnight to the lower 70's. We'll be under mostly clear skies with some more fog in the morning. Better rain chances return Friday and into the weekend as the ridge of high pressure begins to break down. The biggest threat overall will be isolated thunderstorms. We could see a little more rain by the middle of next week.
The tropics are still quiet!

Smart. Simple. Visionary.Safe Harbour: Respect for All is about a vision in action: creating opportunities for storefront businesses, institutions, agencies, and entire municipalities to better understand and celebrate our differences, helping to create safer, more welcoming communities that support diversity and reject discrimination. Fulfilling that vision starts with local businesses and agencies just like yours.
By displaying a colourful window decal and promotional materials, Safe Harbour certified locations announce to the community that they understand and welcome diversity and tat they will serve as an immediate refuge for people who experience discrimination or harassment and briefly need a safe place to go. Each Safe Harbour certified location is part of a growing network of smart, forward-looking businesses and agencies that are linking together to proudly embrace the richness and diversity of our communities.
1,000 Locations!AMSSA expanded the program to Alberta, Manitoba, and Newfoundland and found a great appetite there for practical knowledge and tools related to inclusion. Over 1,000 Safe Harbour certified locations across Canada are now signed on. These diversity leaders are committed to creating welcoming workplaces and vibrant, inclusive communities.
Respect for All – Pass it On!AMSSA is a province-wide association that strengthens its 80+ member agencies who serve immigrants and build culturally inclusive communities, with the knowledge, resources, and support they need to fulfill their mandates.
AMSSA has partnered non-profit immigrant settlement and multicultural agencies in 33 BC communities to lead the initiative in their urban and rural centres. These Community Organizers increase public awareness and support for Safe Hrbour: Respect for All so that it becomes widely recognized by both businesses and agencies, as well as diverse community members. Safe Harbour signals a welcoming environment for all forms of diversity.
Workshops & SupportOur Safe Harbour workshop is an investment – your staff and management will learn of ways to better serve diverse customers/clients and provide immediate support to anyone facing discrimination. The workshop is an orientation to diversity and workplace inclusion which participants will find interactive and practical. Safe Harbour certified locations are asked to take action by first signing on to three key commitments:
Equitable Treatment
Welcoming all clients and/or customers in a respectful manner. If a concern is expressed regarding a lack of respectful treatment, employers and staff take steps to address it.
Providing an Immediate Safe Place
Providing an immediate safe place or someone experiencing discrimination in or near the worksite, which may include a place to sit, a glass of water, a phone to use, and access to a list of resources.
Prepared Employees and Worksites
Preparing managers and staff to implement these commitments. Trained staff are invited to share the program with their colleagues.
Upon completion of the workshop, participants receive a Safe Harbour window decal, a certificate, and promotional materials to display as visible markers of their respect for all. Beyond the workshop, Community Organizers continue supporting Safe Harbour locations to further their awareness of diversity through resources related to cultural competency, the needs of newcomers and diverse groups, and ways to communicate their commitments to the local community. Immigrants, visible minorities, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people, youth, people with disabilities, and other diverse groups can rely on Safe Harbour as a symbol of trust in their neighbourhoods.

Now that the World Series is over and the congratulatory remarks have been made to those comeback kids in St Louis, the Cardinals, the off-season is ready to begin. For the New York Yankees, that means several things, first and foremost, the contract of CC Sabathia.
In case you have been living under a rock, Sabathia can opt out of his 7-year, $161 million contract next week. He has just completed the 3rd year of the deal and, if he opts out, he will be looking to add to his status as the highest paid pitcher in baseball. News outlets are reporting that Sabathia and his agent are spending the weekend in talks with the Yankees, trying to come up with an extension, thereby avoiding an opt out.
I would love for the Yankees to avoid a CC opt out. However, the idea of an extension does not sit well
with me at all. I know, I can't have my cake and eat it, too. But at more than 290 pounds, CC Sabathia just does not inspire much confidence in me right now, especially with the weight he put on during the season. No one is saying how much he gained, but rumor has it that he gained back all the weight he lost last off-season and then some. I believe the weight gain was one reason, if not the main one, that his second half performance did not equal what he did in the first half of the season. Also, Sabathia is 31 years old. Everyone knows that the older you get, the harder it is to lose weight and keep it off. It is also harder to carry around extra weight as you get older. I am finding that out first hand right now.
Sabathia has four years left on this current deal. That alone scares me, let alone an extension. If it were up to me I would offer him a 1-year extension. He'd probably turn that down and opt out, but I'd feel confident that I'd done the right thing for the organization. After that, I'd give Hector Noesi and some of the other kids in the system a chance to make the rotation.
So what will happen? I have no idea, but here's hoping the Yankees don't go overboard and get dragged under by--no offense, CC-- a 290 plus pound whale.
My Thoughts On Off-Season Job Number 1: CC Sabathia

Rapper Big Boi's Morning Routine
Welcome to My Morning Routine, where we take a look at how people kick-start the day. And by "people" we mean celebrities.
(Credit: Matt Duckor)
Antwan Patton, better known as
Big Boi, is an Atlanta-based rapper and actor who, at 5-foot-6, is not very big at all. His career, though, is larger than life. After six cooler-than-cool (ice cold!) albums with Andre 3000 in OutKast, he ventured into a solo music–and acting–career. Last month, he debuted his second solo album, Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors, of which the New York Times said, "Even in Outkast, Big Boi was never merely a macho cartoon; now, he's revealing he's a grown-up." We talked to Big (Mr. Boi?) about his morning routine.
Sometimes my night overlaps with the morning. I'm nocturnal when it comes to recording–I'm just more creative at night. Sometimes I might be getting home from the studio at 6 to 6:30 in the morning. So I get home and take the kids to school.
For breakfast, I usually get two or three eggs scrambled with with cheese, chicken sausage, and French toast with glass of orange juice or mango-pineapple juice.
I do 100 pushups in the morning and another 100 in the nighttime. Around noon I jog–maybe two or three miles every other day.
My wife cooks. I can't cook. I can remix leftovers pretty good, though. Like with turkey spaghetti: I add some shredded cheese, put some foil on top, stick it in the oven and bake it until it gets all gooey and cheesy. Yeah, I can remix the sh*$ out of food.

Otherwise, I'm in hotels all the time, so I stick to room service. I might get the corn chowder or the black bean soup, but tomato basil soup is my favorite. Soup, man–I'm really into soups right now.
I do a lot of Jamaican food on the road. Stewed chicken and cabbage or lima beans and peas or rice. I'm a real finicky eater; I don't eat beef or pork–I haven't for over 20 years.
My go-to drink is Cognac. Just Cognac straight up on the rocks. Or I might drink a little Champagne every now and then. The only time I do it for breakfast is if I'm on an international flight. You might as well get that buzz on so you can go ahead and take a nap.

I thought so but wanted to ask!!!!
Thank you

Lyman #49 has complete data for the #429421 Keith SWC in both .44 Special & .44 Mag.

would i use the same load data as 240 gr swc if i can not find any?
I have loaded the 170gr Keith in 357 mag. when I compare it to a 158gr LSWC the 170gr is nose heavy and takes up less case space. My powder charges are very close between the two bullet styles.

240 grain info for 245 grain? If you start on the low end and work up for your Redhawk, you will be fine. Typically a lighter bullet uses more powder, but 5 grains isn't a whole lot of difference.

About 2 per cent.

I am with RC check Lyman #49. Not knowing your expertise with reloading I would hate to see you start to develop bad habits which could harm you or a loved one or even and innocent bystander at the range. It is usually not considered good practice to use loads for a lighter bullet for a heavier bullet. Though within reason it can be acceptable to use loads designed for heavier bullets for lighter bullet loads.
Get the Lyman #49 its well worth the cost!
April 28, 2012, 11:47 AM
240 grain info for 245 grain?The thing is, Lyman lists the #429421 Keith SWC at 245 grains when cast from Lyman #2 alloy.
If you cast it from pure lead, it might weigh 250.
If you cast it from Linotype, it might weigh 240.
If it actually does weigh 245 out of the mold and you size and lube it?
It will weigh 250 because of the bullet lube you added.
Bottom line is, load data for cast bullets should be based on the bullet mold design, not the actual weight the mold throws with the alloy you are using.
+/- 5 grains one way or the other matters not at all.
How many driving bands and lube grooves and total bearing surface it has is what matters.
April 28, 2012, 03:38 PM
Thanks for all the info guys! I got my Lyman #49 (they had the hard cover)this morning and the bullets i am getting are cast from the #429421 Keith SWC 245 grains mold (From Midatlantic bullets) so it all came together!! Thanks again guys!!!

East Syracuse, NY-- The family of a house that suffered extensive damage from a fire Saturday in East Syracuse is receiving help from the Red Cross.
A Disaster Action Team from the Central New York chapter of the American Red Cross provided assistance to a mother and daughter whose home was damaged by the fire.
The 2:21 p.m. fire happened at 37 Grover St. and started inside the kitchen, a fire chief said. When firefighter's arrived, the flames and smoke had already broken through two front kitchen windows.
The mother and daughter escaped the fire unharmed and firefighters had the fire out in 10 minutes, but there was extensive damage to the first floor and smoke damage to the second floor.
The Red Cross provided assistance for food and clothing and made referrals to local agencies to assist the family during their recovery.
The mother and daughter were put up at a local hotel by the Red Cross.

OSCAR: Voters Receive Final 2010 Screener
Here's the story of an Oscar campaign aiming not to be first, but dead last: Academy members have begun receiving what is believed – and intentionally planned – to be the final screener of the season, Peter Weir's independently produced and distributed adventure epic The Way Back. For those with short memories, the first screeners mailed this awards season were Sony Pictures Classics' Mother And Child and Animal Kingdom on September 28th. The Way Back is one of four indie dramas making up the final quartet of 2010 contender releases in limited runs beginning today. The others, all in theatres more easily accessed on the Academy voter-centric Westside of Los Angeles are Roadside Attractions' Biutiful, Sony Pictures Classics' Another Year and The Weinstein Company's Blue Valentine. But awards strategists for The Way Back's distributor, Newmarket, decided to hold back mailing the DVD screener to Oscar voters until Monday of this holiday week, the same day nominating ballots were also being mailed by the Academy. The thinking was that, rather than getting lost in the pile of hopeful discs, it would be fresh in mind just as members start thinking seriously about filling out their ballot. As one of the film's strategists told me today, "We think voters will take notice of it coming at the tail end of the screener process and be curious to watch it, particularly since it is a film by Peter Weir who has been nominated several times for Oscars".
The film depicts the harrowing journey set in the 1940 of a group of prisoners who escape a Soviet gulag to travel across five hostile countries in search of freedom. Though the pic has had screenings aimed at Guild and Academy members, most recently on December 28th at the DGA theatre in LA, it has been low profile this season since launching its stealth campaign at the Telluride Film Festival over Labor Day weekend. From there, it skipped Toronto and other fall fests where contenders usually graze. But Newmarket will be doing a round of advertising in Industry publications and on websites next week.
But for Oscar voters who would prefer to see the film in a commercial theatre this week, they will have to trek to Covina, on the outskirts of LA County, for the one-week Academy qualifying run. It's a place better known for smog than to launch the first movie in 7 years from the director of Witness, The Truman Show, Dead Poet's Society, and Master and Commander among others, gaining 6 Oscar nominations in the process.
The choice of the AMC Covina 30 plex for the exclusive run is also intentional: the distrib didn't want to blow its marketing wad on a December 29th qualifying release date but to save its money for the true rollout scheduled for January 21st when The Way Back will open on several hundred screens, including those probably a bit closer for Acad members than Covina. That would explain the money-saving microscopic newspaper ad heralding the pic's first theatrical single screen run today. The thinking is also that Academy voters are realistically more likely to watch the film on DVD than in a theatre, so any commercial run is in the second tier of the movie's Oscar strategy.
This is a sad truth about today's Oscar process even as the Academy, often futilely, encourages their members to see movies the way they were meant to be seen – on the big screen. (How ironic then that one Los Angeles-area newspaper review of the film saw a line that stated, "The Way Back demands to be seen on the largest possible screen".) Still, even producer Joni Levin was surprised about the choice of locale. "When we heard, we said, 'Where's West Covina?' But really we just wanted to qualify and didn't want to spend a lot of our marketing dollars on just this aspect. We hope people will come to our industry screenings, attend the official Academy showing, or see the screener before voting."
Haha, I live in West Covina. About time someone acknowledged that we exist!
the screeners were odd this year; in the past almost everything was sent out, but not this time. No EAT PRAY LOVE, no LOVE AND OTHER DRUGS, quite a few others missing. All the 'big' titles were sent, of course (TRUE GRIT, BLACK SWAN) but methinks the studios are cutting back, maybe getting ready for downloads next time around.
Love And Other Drugs went out.
When a group of dedicated artists gather and make a wonderful film that particular film must be watched on the big screen and must be rewarded in my opinion. Or at least go in the list of best picture category when comes to Oscars. "The Way Back" looks promising and Mr. Weir is one of the finest directors we have today. So, I am sure this is a feast.
This is one GREAT film. Terrific performances by a superbly assembled cast. Masterful direction and an all around stunningly epic canvas. This is a film that has has an unbelievable struggle getting to the public but yet is the kind of film that used to be respected and anticipated. How sad that the industry has come to embrace Yogi Bearl and the Fokkers, yet ignores a filmmaker of Peter Weir's stature and track record. I'm only hoping that this film gets tha recognition it deserves. Run and see it when you can.
While I do like the Focker movies, I LOVED THIS FILM.
I saw it yesterday on the big screen in Covina. One of 4 people at the 7:10pm screening.
The scenery was incredible, absolutely stunning. I loved the characters and their journey even though I already knew the basic storyline.
Ed Harris is simply a phenomenal actor.
I urge everyone to see it in Covina. It's a cozy theater.
How about composer Christopher Youing who put up his own money for a qualifying screening of the Afgan movie Black Tulip.
I have watched The Way Back and its awesome movie. I would surely like it to be nominated for Oscars. But Mother and Child is equally enthralling. I am sure this year it would be close competition.
That's a sad state of affairs. Sort of highlights the silliness of awards. A movie needs to be jumping up and down, in the waning moments of the year, saying "look at me, look at me. Kind of destroys the "best of the last 12 months" theory. Forget 12 months, the voters can't even remember films from a couple of months ago. "
I think this movie will give inspirations for some people who used to feel their life so lost. I am sure that they can get an Oscar award with this movie.
Actually, the final screener was Wall St. which AMPAS members received yesterday.
I plan to see this film tomorrow in Covina which appears to be the only place to see it now. I am very excited because I've been patiently waiting for this film to be released because it's such a cool story.
Cannot wrap my head around the epic fail that is the "marketing campaign" (ha!) for this film. Peter Weir has moved into Terrence Malick territory – that rare genius who rarely makes films. 30-second beer spots have received (much) better promotion (see Bowl, Super).
While the attention span of most critics and award voters is stretched to breaking at two months – is it really so nano-sized that it's dropped to one week?
By & large, this movie has missed the radars of critics, awards voters and the public. Sometimes great buzz can win out over dismal box office – but when you have nada on the last lap of the horse race?
Besides that, Mr. Weir, how did you enjoy the film(making)?
I'm a WGA Member in Chicago. Was it just me, or did Fox Searchlight not send screeners for 127 Hours or Black Swan? I was really looing forward to those since FS had sent us movies the past two years.
Those both went out.
But did they both go out for WGA Members, if so, which ones because none of the people I work with in Chicago got them.
No Burlesque, Tron Legacy, Chronicles of Narnia, and The Tourist. Eat, Pray, Love also should have been sent out. Some of these movies may have had poor marketing causing not so much of a turn out at the theaters. The rumors going around about Eat, Pray Love was that it was a "chick film". There was not a man in the audience when I went to see it on the big screen. Because of the poor turnout for the last Chronicles of Narnia, this new installment didn't receive enough buzz. I thought it was so much better and enjoyable to watch. As too was Burlesque, a musical with good acting and great costumes; it too has a lot of potential for nominations. Tron Legacy has great sound, great special effects worth a nod for a screener. Admittedly we haven't seen The Tourist yet because I & my husband [the academy member] hasn't had the chance yet to see it. Today we received Salt, which we had fortunately seen on the big screen. The nomination ballots are due next week. There's a lot of cramming to be done in order to watch the screeners, and not enough time to go out to see those movies on the big screen that haven't been sent as screeners. It's quite a shame that some very good movies may be passed over this year.

We love to heap woe and blame on government bureaucrats, but the problems aren't always the bureaucrats' fault. Strong political forces often constrain fiscally beneficial action, and this dysfunction impacts government agencies large and small.
The Postal Service's business is down about 9 percent this year and will drop perhaps another 13 percent the next. The service is running a budget deficit of $7 billion in 2009 that could balloon to $13 billion in 2010. Thank the Internet and e-mail for the sudden revenue crash.
Clearly, the shift to digital media wasn't on the radar decades ago when America was plastered with post offices and populated with postal couriers.
Today, the Postal Service is America's second-largest employer, with 656,000 employees working from 33,000 offices.
Top postal management suggests closing approximately 1,000 offices to help balance overhead to current revenue. Harsh medicine and necessary, too.
But law mandates the Postal Service can't close an office without congressional approval. Small-town congressmen vying for reelection won't win votes by closing the locals' neighborhood post offices.
Come to think of it, few politicians willingly hoist themselves up on sacrificial altars for any fiscal prudence damaging to their own voting constituency.
I know a thing or two about downsizing, and I've learned fiscal prudence the hard way. Before the housing crash, my firm was the third-largest landscape company in California.
When housing vaporized, so did our revenue, and we had to downsize rapidly or die with the industry. We shed 1,000 employees, closed three non-performing offices, sold the real estate and saved the cash.
Despite 80 percent of our clients vanishing, it looks like we'll make it through this challenge. Why? Because we faced up to core problems early. Our company had too much capacity and overhead for the sharply reduced demand and revenue.
The secret to effective cost-cutting is to identify redundancies and "just shut them down."
Furloughs and percentage wage cuts are stopgaps and can create lingering problems of their own.
Sometimes these half-steps aren't enough. You've got to completely staunch the bleeding. Life and business change can be tough, but decisive action to meet change is often the correct action.
Congress is loath to let the Postal Service act decisively — too many congressional careers are on the line. So the Postal Service is partially hamstrung from outside political forces.
That brings us to California and the William S. Hart Union High School District.
California is in a spiral of decreasing revenues, and facing rising costs, but California politicians don't have the guts to straightforwardly shut down redundancy and unnecessary expense — votes could be lost.
So we suffer demotivating half-steps of furloughs and reductions that dilute and cheapen all California's operations with across-the-board funding cuts. We should give a hard look at what we actually need and what we can leave behind.
California boasts world-class universities whose reputation and operations are now compromised from broad funding cuts.
But do we really need a University of California Merced? It's halfway to nowhere with more cows than students. Shut it down, turn off the lights, cut the employees and sell the land. Boom! Half a billion saved and another half-billion earned. Leave the other U.C. schools fully funded.
And California State University Channel Islands? We got along fine without "the Dolphins" for decades.
Those kids can attend Northridge or L.A. Shut the Dolphins down. But don't cheapen all of the fine Cal State schools because we've imprudently overloaded overhead with too many campuses.
Ditto with prisons. We can cut 35,000 non-violent inmates using GPS anklets and parole. Fine. But rather than removing 5 percent from each prison, let's eliminate redundant facilities and shut a couple down to save valuable cash.
Professors, guards and locals will lament. But they'll find new work, like so many of the millions of private enterprise workers who have been motivated to find new employment during this recession.
In California's financial fix you've got to shut off all redundancies to preserve the quality core.
So now comes the Hart district, caving into 10 years of Castaic crying for a high school of its own. Fine. Except the district faces declining enrollment. Why build more facilities when school population is falling? Why build to appease Castaic constituents? This is a fiscal mistake we can stop before it happens.
My high school was a 15-minute drive from home, a trip much longer than from Lake Hughes to Stevenson Ranch. It didn't kill me and it won't kill Castaic residents. Let them bike, drive or bus, but for heaven's sake don't build a redundant campus, incurring the perpetual cost of keeping it maintained and staffed.
We shouldn't worry about hurt feelings. Castaic will get on. Channel Islands students will transfer. U.C. Merced students will matriculate. Rural farmers will still get their subsidy checks and Netflix DVDs. Everyone will eventually get over the change.
But we've got to stop the fiscal half steps. We've got to stop the dithering. We've got to stop wasteful redundancy and "just shut it down."

Lyoto Machida vs Thiago Silva UFC 89 !
It's official, Lyoto Machida will face Thiago Silva in the co-main event of UFC 89.
I'm salivating at the thought of this fight, arguably the two best up and coming brazilians in the division going at it with the winner to receive a title shot.
Both guys are very well rounded with solid wrestling good striking and jujitsi.
The striking IMO favours Lyoto as Thiago's brawling style fits perfectly into Lyoto's elusive counter punching style, however Thiago definitly has the BJJ advantage in this fight.
IMO the victor of this bout will depend upon the striking game, can Thiago disrupt Lyoto enough to set up a takedown and implement his brilliant top game, GNPing, passing and perhaps looking for the submission.
If Tito can come as close as he did to submitting Lyoto then I'm giving Thiago a good chance of finishing the fight on the ground, or at least staying busy enough to take the round from Lyoto.
I'd love to see Thaigo take this one but I can't see him being able to take Lyoto down, I'm going for Lyoto by UD.
What do you guys think?
I think this is an easy fight for Machida, sig bet for anyone silly enough to pick Thiago:P
Brydon what makes you think winner gets a title shot?? Does it say that somewhere? If not then I could see Chuck getting the title shot if he beats Rashad at UFC 88.
Afterall Chuck vs. Forrest would be HUGE for PPV sales.
This one is a no-brainer to me, Machida is going to make Thiago look foolish.
As far as Thiago being way better then Lyoto on the ground, I wouldn't judge Lyoto's ground game on Chito's one in a million triangle.
Machida really needs to dominate Thiago in this one to widen his fan base as most casual UFC fans don't appreciate his slick standup. A TKO or a cool sub on Thiago would definatley accomplish that in my mind as Thiago is seen as a killer atm.
i'll pick thiago to win. silva can get inside since machida doesnt have alot of power and he may be able to take machida down from the clinch. fighters should no by now what machida is gonna bring to a fight and i think your gonna see alot of people start to adjust to it.
I think I wet myself when I first heard mention of this fight. No matter what anyone says, I enjoy watching Machida and Thiago is one of those guys that's always fun to watch. Nobody has been able to come close to taking Lyoto out of his game thus far and I don't think Thiago is gonna be able to do it.
Also, I think people put too much stock in Tito almost subbing Lyoto. People forget about Tito's success at Abu Dhabi, and just think of him as a Gnp guy which isn't the case at all. So Thiago jitz against Lyoto's doesn't really worry me either.
Silva will have to go to the ground ASAP, which I'm sure he realizes. Imagine if Machida altered his strategy a little though, since he got so much attention for being a counterpuncher.
I don't know who to pick, all I know is we Atlantans are getting hosed. The card for 89 is way better then 88.

To Shamrock-Ortiz ill take that bet all day long everyone is on Machida's nuts and it's starting to get me annoyed.
@ JB I'll PM ya buddy.
