Opting for Satellite TV PC Entertainment without Monthly Fees
Some people spend a lot of time watching their computer screens than they do television. I should know because I'm one of them. In fact, just call me a computer junky who doesn't shut down his machine until late at night. Maybe you're not quite like me but still spend a lot of time looking at your computer screen. If that's the case, I found that watching my favorite shows on my laptop isn't such a bad thing when using a newbie helper like iSatelliteLink.
I attended tech school some years ago to obtain my associates degree. Repairing televisions was part of my education but things have certainly changed since then. Building a TV-set now is as easy as eating apple pie. In fact, a child can do it and create his/her own television without any skills, education or knowledge.
I'm going to tell you exactly how you can build one that takes only a couple minutes. The Internet has now become a huge library of free media. Many call it streaming content where viewers can watch Internet TV channels, movies, sports, sitcoms/episodes, news, and many other types of programs online.
What makes this method quick and easy is there's no hardware/equipment to install or wires to connect. You have the option to surf the web to find your own free content, which means you have to go from one website to another to watch a particular type of content such as sports, news, or movies.
But with the right PC Satellite TV software, you can pretty much stay in one location to watch everything and have the option to add channels when finding them online yourself. This makes watching television over the web more convenient.
Only two things are required to make this TV on PC system work:
- PC or Mac desktop/laptop computer
- Internet connection, either wireless or the preferred (DSL/Cable) broadband connection
Your computer already has multimedia and video software inside that can play Internet TV channels, videos, music, and radio stations. And whatever a computer is lacking – required codec plugins or software needed to play audio/video media files, you can download them for free online.
Then again, perhaps you're like me – a bit on the lazy side who rather have someone else do all the work. Now don't get me wrong, finding your own free channels over the web is one option if you have time on your hands. This requires combing the web to find free Internet content to watch on your computer.
But if you are like the many who don't have time and want to experience the best of web TV with instant access to thousands of channels worldwide, then you might want to turn your attention to iSatelliteLink. This software package and service can help you setup a DIY web television system to watch your favorite programs on your PC in less than five minutes.
This service offers TVonPC software for Windows, mobile device compatibility, and legal movies download. The 3 in 1 package provides a robust Internet entertainment center for any Windows desktop or laptop computer.
If you need an extra television for around the house, work or college or a TV traveling companion to watch what you want, when and where you want, then you should consider downloading software that delivers thousands of channels to your desktop or laptop. There's no easier or quicker method out there than this, and it doesn't hurt your pockets either.
Just imagine all the places in your travels where there's no television around or only one TV-set shared by other people. I dread having to watch a show that others find interesting except me. So whether it's watching live or on-demand channels, sports or movies, news or radio station, you'll get access to all of them with less time and effort.
Just boot up the computer, double-click the software icon and point/click to the channel inside the player to watch.
The service offers a few other perks such as service package that consist of a lifetime membership with tech support, channels updates, and software upgrades to help keep everything up to date and like-new. This comes when paying the small one-off fee that saves you more than any Cable or Satellite monthly subscription.
So if you find yourself watching the computer screen more, adding an entertainment center can make things more entertaining when bored or needing some down time. In fact, you can even multitask when watching a show or listening to radio/music while working online.
The iSatelliteLink can be that entertainment source that helps deliver almost unlimited free content from the web to your computer. You can visit the TV Blog for other information.
Alternatively, you can do the same thing with another software that's compatible to both Windows and Mac computers. To find out more, read my Satellite Direct Review.
More information about TV software that may be of interest: Satellite TV for PC Review, Satellite TV for PC Elite, Watch TV on PC Review and Satellite TV Software. This should help get the ball rolling in finding a good software that can streamline setting up a Satellite TV Software for PC or Mac system.

I always think Raven Concealment Phantom is a good idea. With one holster and different attachments you can carry Inside the Waistband (IWB), or Outside the Waistband (OWB). You can also adjust the ride height and cant just by moving the attachments.
It is mostly geared toward the "tactical experts", but I find the versatility of the holster makes it a good choice for those new to carrying so you can try as many options as possible with just the investment in one holster. Even if you end up not liking it, at least you will have a better idea of what you will like.

I have carried a sigma 40 for years. Finally settled on a de santis speed scabbard. If you want a thumb break try a galco cop 3 slide. These are for owb. Both are good quality holsters and just under $100.00

Grandfather Oak Custom Carry, ive carried my sigma 40ve in it for about 5 years and nearly every single one of those days. IWB, its kydex and is perfect. plus it carries a lifetime warranty. when i broke the holster (fell down a muddy hill) i sent it in and it was replaced in a very timely manner.
i use the hidden companion.

After trying at least 4 other holsters over the last 8 years, I settled on a little, 22-dollar, leather Tagua holster, worn inside-the-pants, or as a belt holster (with shirttail out or a jacket covering it). This holster fits my Kel-tec PF-9 and my Sigma.
Carrying a gun this size took some gettting used to, but I feel comfortable with it for most occasions. In May of 2004, I bought my Sigma 9VE for $269.95. I like carrying my Sigma for most occasions. Having been shot at during a robbery, I prefer the advantage of 18 rounds, plus an additional 17-round mag on my belt or in my pocket. A friend of mine came home from Afghanistan recently, and he carries a Sigma too.

Is Your Toilet Cleaner Than Your Remote?Alli Worthington
We are always in contact with one gadget or another: phones, game controllers, remotes and more. Scientists discovered that sometimes toilet seats or the bottoms of our shoes can be cleaner than our electronics.
Ew, right?
In my house every year the weather gets cold, kids spend more time inside and we all get sick over and over again. One boy gets a virus and it spreads all over our house like the plague. Once I started keeping the electronics, light switches and doorknobs clean, we were so much healthier!
I'm going to share some of my favorite ways to keep your gadgets clean and not ruin them in the process.
Have you recovered from the thought of what is growing on your gadgets? It's an awful thought, I know. You OK? Yes? OK, great, let's get started.
What Not to Do:
1. Do not use paper towels on your electronics. Not only will you get papery lint residue, but they can actually scratch the LCD surface of your electronics.
2. Do not use regular window cleaner on your electronics. There are many options for special cleaning solutions, or if you prefer to go natural, use a solution of vinegar and water mixed equally. I use it for my electronics cleaning and it works like a charm.
3. Never spray cleaner directly on your electronics. Keep liquid away from all the ports, ventilation holes and various gaps on your electronics. Spray cleaner on a soft cloth, microfiber is a smart choice, and then clean your electronics.
How to Clean your Electronics
1. How to Clean your Touchscreen Gadgets
Use vinegar and water on your touchscreen gadgets.
Mix the vinegar and water together in equal parts and use a soft microfiber cloth to gently wipe the crud off your electronics. I dip the cloth in solution, squeeze out the excess and just use a little dab to clean my electronics. Distilled water is often used to keep the chemicals in tap water away from delicate camera lenses.
2.How to Clean your Keyboard.
Keep your keyboard gunk free with compressed air and a little rubbing alcohol.
I blow all the dust out of my keyboard with compressed air and then use a little bit of rubbing alcohol on a swab to keep the keys clean. I've too often opened my laptop in public and realized it looks like it has spent a few years in a dusty dungeon. I'm left trying casually to wipe it off with my scarf and hope no one notices.
3. How to Clean your Remotes and Handheld Devices.
Remotes are gross. I travel often for business and the first thing I do when I enter a hotel room is use a dab of sanitizing gel on the light switch and the TV remote. Studies have been done with a black light that show the shower floor is often cleaner than those things in hotel rooms. EW. At home, our remotes and handheld devices are held by grimy fingers, licked by the dog (who probably smelled food residue) and who knows what else!
I regularly wipe these things down with rubbing alcohol on a soft cloth. Yes, it's a harsh cleaner, but I've never ruined any remotes yet. And yes, you probably want to check your manuals and follow manufacturer directions.
How Often to Clean your Gadgets
I clean my electronics when I notice the schmutz on them or when one of the boys starts to show signs of illness, other than that, it simply depends on how much the item is used. How often do you clean your electronics? I would love to hear and of course, please share your tips for keeping them clean in the comments below.

Most shells use the environment variable PS1 for the prompt. Check your

Helpline to tackle old age loneliness
By Shwetha Vipin and Shalini Jose - KOCHI
Published: 03rd December 2012 08:55 AM
Last Updated: 03rd December 2012 08:55 AM
As Anton Chekhov said, "people who lead a lonely existence always have something on their minds that they are eager to talk about."
At a time when traditional joint families are giving way to nuclear families the aged are at the receiving end. They lead a lonely existence with hardly anyone to share their thoughts in their twilight years.
As a panacea for the issue, HelpAge India has introduced a helpline for the aged to share their thoughts and feelings. The service is available 24x7 for the elderly who are desperately in need of a lending ear. The helpline number is 18001801253.
"We have received around 28 to 30 calls a month and we encourage reflective listening to the senior citizens," says Biju Mathew, Kerala state in-charge of Help Age India.
He also said the aged members of society find solace speaking to the counsellors at the helpline desk as they are neglected by their children and grand children. This helpline which was once only used for providing information and old age home assistance has now become a source of great emotional support for the lonely souls.
Previously, the aged were dumped into old age homes forcefully but now the trend is changing and many of them are volentarily joining the senior care homes. Loss of power and economic stability is found to be the reason for the retired lot to willingly opt for old age homes.
With 10 per cent as the benchmark for an aging society, Kerala has already exceeded this limit with an aging population of 13 per cent thereby making these homes teem with the aged.

Why You Forget Birthdays
Birthdays are easier to remember the closer they are to your own, according to a study in Psychological Science. In one of three experiments, researchers told 225 college students to write the names of 10 friends on paper. Then they asked the students to add any of these friends' birthdays (the month and day, but not the year) that they could recall. Finally, the students searched social-networking websites and personal calendars to find the forgotten birthdays.
The remembered birthdays were an average of 79 days away from the subject's own birthday, while the forgotten birthdays were an average of 98 days away. The phenomenon is an example of the "self-reference effect" in memory, which makes memories easier to retrieve the more closely you can relate to them, the researchers said.
Caveat: Because of the study's narrow demographics, it's unclear whether the same memory pattern applies to college graduates and children.

• Stroke: Surgery to remove plaque from clogged neck arteries lowered the risk of stroke in the long run, according to a study in the Lancet. Over time, plaques composed of cholesterol and debris accumulate on artery walls, narrowing them and restricting the flow of blood. In carotid arteries, which run up either side of the neck, this narrowing increases the likelihood of having a stroke. The surgery, known as carotid endarterectomy, is sometimes suggested for patients whose carotid arteries have narrowed by 60% to 90%, even in the absence of pre-stroke symptoms. Researchers randomly assigned 3,120 pre-symptomatic patients from 30 countries to receive carotid endarterectomy either as soon as possible or not until symptoms appeared. Over the next 10 years, 10.8% of patients in the immediate-surgery group had a stroke, compared with 16.9% of the deferred-surgery group. Even after taking into account the procedure's substantial risks (including fatal stroke and heart attack), the group that had immediate surgery still appeared significantly better off than the deferred group.
Caveat: For patients older than 75, carotid endarterectomy didn't significantly reduce stroke risk. The relative benefits of the procedure may decrease as nonsurgical treatments, such as cholesterol-lowering medications, become more effective.

• Breastfeeding: Exclusively feeding infants breast milk for their first six months appears to protect them from common infections, according to a study in the Archives of Disease in Childhood. Previous research has found that breastfeeding boosts infants' immune systems and protects against infections. This study, however, appears to be the first to suggest that exclusive breastfeeding, in which the infants receive no other liquids or solids, is required to prevent infections. Researchers followed 926 mother-infant pairs in Crete for one year after birth. Roughly 10% of the mothers breastfed their children exclusively for at least six months. Fewer than 5% of these infants developed ear infections, compared with 12% of their peers. Overall, the infants in the study developed an average of 4.3 infections during their first year, but that rate was 0.7 infection per year lower for exclusively breastfed infants than for others. Individually, several other infections (including conjunctivitis and urinary-tract infections) were less common among exclusively breastfed infants, but not to a statistically significant degree. Researchers have speculated that breast milk may protect infants against infection by passing immune-system proteins from the mother to the child.
Caveat: The study used a relatively small sample size, and the breastfeeding habits were not randomly assigned. It's possible that infant infections affected exclusive breastfeeding, rather than the other way around.
Pregnancy and the flu vaccine: Pregnant women who get vaccinated against the flu appear to protect their infants from the virus, according to a study in the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine. Influenza vaccines aren't licensed for use in children younger than six months, who have the highest flu-hospitalization rate of any age group. Mothers, however, may transmit flu-protective antibodies to their children through the placenta or breast milk, previous studies have found. Researchers tracked the health of 1,160 infants born to mothers on the Navajo and White Mountain Apache reservations in the Southwest during one of three flu seasons. About 52% of the infants developed a flu-like illness during their first six months, 14% of which were confirmed by laboratory tests to be influenza. But children born to mothers who chose to be vaccinated against the flu while pregnant were 39% less likely than other infants to get flu-like illnesses, and 41% less likely to get laboratory-confirmed influenza. The findings corroborate similar results from a randomized study of 340 Bangladeshi mothers, published in 2008.
Caveat: Because the U.S. recommends that all pregnant women be vaccinated against the flu, the study couldn't randomly assign mothers to vaccination and non-vaccination groups. The study's corresponding author has received grants for unrelated studies from two companies that produce flu vaccines, and has advised another.
Obesity: Obese workers are 25% more likely than normal weight workers to take sick leave, according to a study in Occupational and Environmental Medicine. Researchers surveyed the work histories and lifestyles of 10,634 workers at 49 companies in the Netherlands. Obese participants (those with a body mass index of least 30) were 25% more likely than normal weight or underweight subjects (those with a BMI below 25) to report missing at least one day of work in the past 12 months due to health problems. (Overall, 56% of the workers had done so.) Obese workers were also 55% to 66% more likely to take at least 10 days of sick leave. Based on these surveys, the researchers estimated that obesity might be responsible for 2.7% of total sick leave in the Netherlands.
Caveat: The findings might differ in the U.S., where more than 30% of adults are obese, compared with 10% in the Netherlands. Of the workers the researchers initially contacted, only 57% responded to the survey—a low rate that could have skewed the results.
Weight Loss: Dairy-based calcium appears to increase weight loss among dieters, according to a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Researchers randomly assigned 322 employees of an Israeli research center to one of three diets (low-fat, low-carbohydrate or "Mediterranean") and tracked their weight and their intake of specific foods. After six months, half of the participants had lost roughly 10 pounds or more. But subjects who consumed the most calcium from milk, cream, yogurt and cheeses—at least 240 extra milligrams, or about the amount in two-thirds of a cup of milk, above the median of 358 milligrams per day—were 45% more likely than other subjects to be in that top half. For reasons unknown, nondairy calcium appeared to have a considerably weaker effect on weight loss.
Caveat: The link between calcium and weight loss is still poorly understood. After 24 months of dieting, the association between dairy calcium and weight loss wasn't statistically significant.
Smoking: Young adult smokers have more trouble hearing extra-high frequencies than nonsmokers, according to a small study in Toxicology and Industrial Health. Researchers surveyed the lifestyles of 51 male subjects, ages 21 to 23, and then tested their hearing. Nonsmokers began to hear a 12 kilohertz note—about three times as many vibrations per second as the highest note on a standard piano—at about 30 decibels. Smokers, on the other hand, began to hear the frequency only after the volume was raised to 37 decibels, on average. Neither drinking, nor poor sleep nor frequent use of MP3 players had a significant effect on the hearing threshold.
Caveat: Smokers didn't appear to have any more trouble than non-smokers for lower frequencies of 1, 4, or 8 kilohertz. The researchers didn't propose an explanation for how smoking might affect hearing. Future studies would need to recruit more participants to confirm the findings.

The Bronx Bombers are out of commission, or at least they might as well be, especially with all these listless and punchless performances they've been putting up as of late. The days of the Yankees engaging in a game that features 19 runs and actually winning are gone, or if they aren't, then they're at least on temporary leave for this year. These Yankees can't engage in a slugfest and actually expect to win anymore. They are as bereft of offense now as they have ever been, and it's a damn shame, because they have a pitching staff that has a case for genuine elite status.
The team's nominal staff ace CC Sabathia has been below average this year, at least per his standards, and even old man Pettitte has fallen victim to the mediocrity monsters. Heck, even one time prized prospect Phil Hughes has been inconsistent, but that's nothing new to Yankee fans, and yet all this really does is show people just how good the rest of the staff has actually been. Hiroki Kuroda, a right handed Japanese pitcher who is pushing 40, has emerged as the staff ace, putting up terrific outings left and right and serving as one of the few bright spots in what's otherwise been a pretty dismal season. Ivan Nova has also been resurgent for these New York Yankees. Since coming off an early DL stint and a bullpen demotion that stemmed from his erratic performances, Nova has since become a stabilizing force in the rotation, acting as the team's second best starting pitcher as well as a young player who may actually factor into the team's future. Of course, any discussion of the team's pitching staff would be incomplete without talking about the future Hall of Famer and team closer, Mariano Rivera.
He wears number 42, comes out to the song "Enter Sandman??? and throws what may be the single greatest pitch in baseball history. His cutter, forever the object of scorn among Major League hitters, has long whittled down the bats of left handed hitters while neutralizing the sting that may come from the bats wielded by right handers. His is pitch of legend, and one that may ultimately earn him status as one of the game's greatest pitchers, if such a title were not his already, and yet, what's most remarkable about Rivera is not so much his pitching acumen and more his genuinely good-natured towards the game, his teammates, his fans, and just generally every person he has ever had the pleasure to meet. He is a true living legend and one all baseball fans will miss after this season.
Perhaps it's fitting that Rivera's final season has doubled to be an offensive disaster for his team. After years of dominating others, maybe it's time the Yankees understood how it feels to be helpless at the plate. It's shaping up to be a lost season in the Bronx, but no loss will be as painful as the one that will come at the end of the year when Mariano Rivera eventually calls it quits.

Perfectly Franck: Eder and GSO bring romance to performance
Published 4:35 pm, Tuesday, November 26, 2013
Prolific composers honoring their early musical mentors (read inspirations) were celebrated in a concert of British and French music by the accomplished Greenwich Symphony Orchestra. Works by Benjamin Britten, Gabriel Faure, Cesar Franck and Georges Bizet comprised the program, and piano soloist Terry Eder performed two meltingly romantic works with emotional and interpretive clarity.
This year would be the 100th birthday of Britten, as was noted by Conductor David Gilbert and marked by the opening performance of the complex work "Variations on a Theme by Frank Bridge," an homage to that composer's teacher and mentor.
Scored for large string orchestra, the 10 variations comment on Bridge's qualities as interpreted by the composer in a work rife with pizzicato. The opening "Introduction and Theme" was pure Britten, with pizzicato strings and wonderful, surging complex chords, moving to a tender passage for violas and cellos, with a few jaunty kicks of melody. Moving seamlessly to the "Adagio," stately but with little shrieks of thought, then onto "March," martial, with almost strident bowing and pizzicato that faded to "Romance," a waltz. A zesty "Aria Italiana" was uptempo, and the "Bouree Classique," staunchly proper in 4/4 time, featured a solo violin passage, beautifully played by Concertmaster Susan Metcalf.
More InformationFact box
"Wiener Waltz" began discordantly, but a thoughtful passage in violas and cellos reminded us of complexity, sounding like mice scurrying about in the violins, then back to the mad dance. "Moto perpetuo" was taken presto in violins and cellos, felt like running for a train, with anxious passages, then struck chords. "Funeral March" opened in agonized chords, with the double basses playing a somber repeating statement, a high keening sounding in the violins. The threnody continued in heart-wrenching wails, fading to distant moans, then soundlessness, and silence. "Chant" brought the music to a rapid energy that faded, then returned, and the mysterious "Fugue and Finale," violas prominent, wound its strange, angst-ridden progress until the unison close.
This complex work is a brilliant concoction, first performed in 1937, and redolent of the new conventions and chords in 20th century music. Portraying Bridge's characteristics, such as enthusiasm, charm and sympathy, it was, and is, an advance of musical String Theory, and the GSO performed it with nuance, skill and great artistry.
Entering in a flowing red gown, Terry Eder looked like a smart schoolgirl, but played like a seasoned master in Ballade in F sharp minor by Faure (whose mentor was Camille Saint-Saens), a bucolic and sweet work opening in solo piano, joined by cellos, doubles basses playing pizzicato, then violins. A conversation with flute and piano charmed, as the piano melody moved to left hand for Eder. French horns sounded in this deeply romantic work handled beautifully by the soloist. Powerful, stirring at times, the orchestra and soloist gave a nuanced, lovely performance.
Returning after intermission, Eder performed another romantic work, the Symphonic Variations of Cesar Franck. Opening in strings, the piece showed romantic introspection, with a Chopinesque middle passage, handled beautifully by the soloist. The music turned somber, became powerful, stirring at times, then tender. Eder was given cries of "bravo", and presented with a bouquet of beautiful flowers.
Symphony in C Major by Geroges Bizet, a favorite from the composer of opera, specifically the great "Carmen," began like an overture, operatic, the brasses showing their power. Musically straightforward, the work is consonant, chordal, compositional, and catchy. The Adagio featured a somber opening in brasses and woodwinds. a mournful oboe passage, calling up Scheherazade and the Arabian nights, against pizzicato strings. Scherzo showed the exceptional balance of the orchestra, a lovely melody sounding above plucked strings. As operas do, the music seemed to call up visions of many lands, transcending the here and now. It was a harmonic voyage, a story with vistas across clouds and sky. Dizzying woodwinds opened Allegro Vivace, with melodies played lightly in violins, an orchestral conversation. Several deceptive endings featured low strings whirring, like an engine left idling. There were many repeats of thematic material in this work: R is for repetitive, and the final C was for crowd-pleasing as the audience erupted in applause. (Bizet's mentor was Charles Gounod).
Featuring only one 20th century work, this concert was a near envelopment in the earlier century. The Britten work is one of genius, and the orchestra interpreted it brilliantly.
The next concert of the Greenwich Symphony will be on Jan. 25 and 26, 2014, and will feature the GSO's own Susan Rotholz on flute and Victoria Drake, harp. For tickets and information, go to www.greenwichsym.org, or call 203-869-2664.

At HW it can be very difficult, so many bombs thrown in that division. I guess if you want to look for a silver lining I'd point to the fact that he got up and beat the count, and it took a lot to do it too...it was early in the fight and he didn't take a sustained beating so he probably won't fall off physically, his chin will just be in question until he's hit and rocked again and has to battle through it. HW division is by far the most difficult to have to try and work those issues out though

Havent seen the fight yet but he may be able to come back depending on his mental fortitude. Its that that make great fighters with or without a good chin.
I said a couple weeks ago not to be surprised if Thompson won and was ridiculed by another poster. Wonder where that guy is now? Lol, you know who you are!

Not sure to be hosnest with you...
.....Thompson was not really any great shakes even when he was even in his prime and now that's he's 40 and not excatly in ripped B-Hop shape (and clearly a mile behind the K brothersas well) that does not bode well for David.
Getting nailed by TT in the second round is a major setback. We'll soon find out whether David is a man or a mouse.
Strong champion.

Of course he can come back, there's not much coming back to. He wasn't a champion or fighting top opposition until this fight.

rewatched the fight a few times today and that KO.
TBH Price was hit under the ear. Very awkward place to be hit (you can try just to push it there, very soft point )
I think that made him look even worse.
He has a chance to come back but he need a quick rematch and fight with Fury.

he has no potential. his time to impress was now and he's just proven what the people who know boxing already knew, ie. that he is CRAP. now the nodding sheep kool-aid drinkers know it, too. Price is pure diarrhoea. a joke. a sideshow. an embarrassment. he'll try to bounce back, but the same thing will happen again - he'll be undermatched and then he'll be sparked at fringe level.
at anyone who thinks Fury wouldn't have smashed this clumsy stiff oaf to pieces.

His coordination tells me no. If i saw he had the fundamentals down and he just got caught id say maybe but this guy just doesnt have it. This sport on an elite level isnt for him he will go back to beating cabbies and build himself up again and improve but once hes back against decent opposition he will fall asleep on the job again.

Wilman V. Melgar, 26, described by police as an illegal immigrant from Honduras, was arrested Friday, Dec. 28 after a report of a disturbance at the Siesta Motel on Route 22. A female was reporting that Melgar had just held a knife to back of her neck and threatened to kill her, police said.
The phone line disconnected and the dispatcher lost contact with the caller. Officers arrived within minutes and made contact with both parties still arguing in the room. Melgar refused officers' commands to exit the room and show his hands. When he began reaching into his pocket, an officer pulled him from the room and escorted him to the ground were he was handcuffed without incident.
A search of his pocket revealed a folding pocket knife. An additional knife was located on the floor of the disheveled room, police said. After the investigation was completed, Melgar was charged with assault, making terroristic threats and unlawful possession of a weapon.
After fingerprinting Melgar at headquarters, it was determined that he was an illegal immigrant from Honduras and he had an Immigration (ICE) warrant for his arrest. He was lodged in the Hunterdon County Jail in default of $20,000 bail and the ICE detainer.

John W. MacDonald
Wednesday, April 9, 1:00 pm-2:30 pm, Todd Building, Room 203, UM
As a teenager in a missionary family in the Philippines, John W. MacDonald and his family fled to the hills when Japanese Forces invaded their town Legaspi on December 12, 1941. After seven months, they were captured and transferred to Manila to Santo Tomas Internment Camp for a few weeks, then allowed to live at the Mission compound in the city. In July 1944, they were re-interned at Los Baños Internment Camp, forty miles south-east of Manila. By Christmas, they were on starvation rations and conditions continued to worsen. On February 23, 1945, all 2200+ internees were rescued from behind Japanese lines by a classic raid conducted by Filipino guerrillas, Army Scouts, paratroops, and amphibious tractors. After liberation, John moved to Missoula where he finished high school and two years at the University of Montana before enlisting in the Air Force for pilot training. During his twenty year Air Force career, he served in the Korean War, the Cold War, and the Vietnam War.
Please come join us to hear John W. MacDonald share this amazing experience with his fellow MOLLI members!

Few bands have the longevity and success as Bon Jovi has had. They have been touring and selling out arenas all over the world for nearly thirty years. It all began when the band was formed in New Jersey in the early 1980s and their popularity quickly grew with their first hit, "Runaway" from their first album Bon Jovi in 1984. Bon Jovi became a massive worldwide phenomenon and secured their spot in music history with their third album, Slippery When Wet, that was released in 1986 and sold over 12 million copies. Some of their most famous songs from that album include "You Give Love a Bad Name" and the classic "Livin' on a Prayer". A successful world tour quickly followed, with 206 stops, including three nights at Madison Square Garden.
Bon Jovi has released twelve studio albums, two live albums, and two compilation albums and are one of the best selling bands of all time, having sold an incredible 130 million albums. Bon Jovi's most recent tour, the Because We Can tour, was the most successful world tour of the 2013 and had stopped at the Honda Center on October 9th and
Staples Center on October 11th.
After nearly thirty years of touring, Bon Jovi has performed for more than thirty-four million fans, in more than 2,700 concerts in over 50 countries. Every time they go on tour they are one of the highest grossing tours of that year and it's no surprise why with millions of loyal fans and a huge collection of hits. When you go to one of their concerts you can expect to hear some of their greatest hits including "Livin' on a Prayer," "Bad Medicine," "Wanted Dead or Alive," and "Have a Nice Day," just to name a few.
Bon Jovi is a famous band formed in New Jersey. The success of the rock band is worldwide. In fact, Bon Jovi have performed more than 2,600 concerts in over 50 countries for more than 34 million fans. Bon Jovi continues their great music through The Circle Tour that is considered as one of the longest Bon Jovi Tour. Some of their well-known songs include Bed of Roses, Always, Livin' on a Prayer and It's My Life.

What a Horrible situation. Like Ute said, if the REALTOR isn't reporting this amount as income, he'd be in trouble with the IRS. Also, the contractor must report his income as well, and, I'd imagine if he's getting paid cash, he's probably not reporting it (hence the cash).
Contact a lawyer immediately to see what direction to take. Without knowing more details, it sounds pretty unethical and illegal, but that's just my opinion. A lawyer will be able to give you straight forward answers. Good luck. I hope you get this resolved after putting so much money up. Let us know what happens.
Adelina Rotar
It just sounds like the contractor is working "under the table" and the agent is aiding that by paying him cash. At the same time, I am not sure why the agent would make the deposits in his own name as could have a problem with this if he gets audited by the IRS. They'll want to know why the deposits are not reported as income (I am of course making an assumption that they are not reported since he does not keep all the money). I'd be also curious, how much the contractor gets actually paid and whether the agent holds any money back for facilitating this arrangement. I don't like to jump to conclusions, but to me it really does not sound right.
The sad thing is that the project is not yet finished and you don't even know if it will pass inspections.
I would run, not walk to an attorney ASAP, take all the documentation that you have and I think you have a case, if not illegally, but perhaps morally, and surely not acting in your best interest!
But we do have to remember, there are two sides to each story, what bothers me the most is you have given money to the Realtor, not to the actual person doing the work - did they give you any percentage that they were working for?
Good luck on finding a good win win solution!
Bill Wootan
regarding your realtor, he probably violated Article 11 of the Code of Ethics.
You should really consult a lawyer as others have already mentioned.
One suggestion I have that you can imost certainly mplement: At the end of the year, make sure that you or your accountant prepares and sends a Form 1099. This is an IRS form used for payments made to subcontractors. This documents and protects the taxable basis of your property. This will be impt when you sell it. Also, the realtor will now have to pay income tax on the whole shebang, unless he can document related expenses. This should cause him some issues if he has indeed been paying cash to the contractor.

Some residents living on Plamondon between Westbury and Lemieux are upset about a new street cleaning schedule. They say it's making parking a nightmare and they've started a petition to press city officials for changes.
The Côte-des-Neiges borough has changed street cleaning so residents have to move their cars for street cleaning twice a week for two hours.
Except on Plamondon where residents have one week day to park without having to move their car.
"Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9 AM to 11 AM you can't park on any given side of the street, for example if you take your kids to school when you come back you have no where to park because all the spots are taken, every single day of the week, except for Friday," resident Schneur Rabin, who started the petition said.
His neighbour says it's particularly annoying because the street has a synagogue, school and day care.
"It's a very busy area, a lot of children get dropped off, so it causes difficulties, the city was functioning perfectly before the changes were made."
The borough told CJAD on 90 percent of the streets, residents only have to move their car twice a week.
It said the street cleaning schedule is complex and that's why some streets like Plamondon have this problem.
It says it will try to rectify it, but it'll take at least a month.
"I find that unacceptable, if someone parks there for 30 seconds they can get a ticket, but the city can take their time to change the signs."
"If they cared about the community, they would have done some research, a survey or something, at the least they would have been a notice in every mail box. But they did none of that," Rabin added.

New Orleans police investigated a shooting incident Saturday night in the Bayou St. John neighborhood that left three men wounded. The men were transported to University Hospital after being shot around 7:30 p.m. in the 2900 block of Dumaine Street.
Police said that two of the men were shot in the legs, while one was wounded in his ankle. At least nine rounds were fired, police said, and neighbors said they heard a barrage of gunfire.
"I didn't even come out of my house because honestly I thought it was firecrackers," said one woman who asked not to be named. "It wasn't until I heard shouting outside that I realized something was going on."
A witness who lives near the site of the shooting said all three men appeared to be alert as they were put into ambulances.
Police have not released information about possible suspects in the shooting. Stay with NOLA.com for updates as this story develops.

Folklore and the Internet: A Sourcebook
Edited by Trevor J. Blank
Utah State University Press
The Internet has and continues to shape and reshape our lives, and folklore scholars are in a position to comment upon these cultural processes. However, folklorists have been surprisingly timid in lending their voice to scholarly debates on cyberethnography, Internet folk culture, social networking, and many other related topics. The 2007 American Folklore Society joint-conference in Quebec, Canada program reflects an ever-increasing focus on Internet folklore themes by the discipline; folkloristics is beginning to see some attention paid to these topics, but not in hordes of data as with anthropology and sociology.
This book will be the first effort by folklorists and allied scholars to produce a collaborative publication on the topic of Internet folklore—a vastly important, ever-present genre that has been greatly neglected in folkloristics. Its purpose is to serve as a compilatory text that reflects intelligent and thought-provoking scholarship on the budding genre, and to bring much-needed attention to the importance of its study by folklorists and allied humanities scholars. It is intended that the book will be utilized as a text for college courses or scholars interested in familiarizing themselves with current discussions and practical arguments for the importance Internet folklore scholarship.
Scholars from all fields are welcomed to contribute. Topics may include, but are not limited to:
- cyberethnography/ Internet fieldwork
- contemporary legends/ email hoaxes
- social networking (facebook, myspace, etc.)
- folk speech/ jargon/ verbal play in an online context
- music on the Internet (distribution, creation, interplay)
- identity (authenticity, aliases, construction of the digital self, etc.)
- material culture aspects of the internet
- folk art and the internet
- juxtaposition of Internet and "real world" folklore
- legitimacy of Internet folklore scholarship
- folk belief and religion on the Internet
- community and the Internet
- fan culture
- food/ recipe sharing
- commemoration on the Internet
- blogging culture
- multimedia (YouTube, etc.)
- e-Commerce
- diffusion of folklore in an electronic format
- historical approaches (computer and xerox-lore to Internet folklore)
The best essays submitted will be included in the book, which is tentatively scheduled for a publication date of Spring 2009 in partnership with Utah State University Press. Prospective contributors are encouraged to contact the book's editor, Trevor J. Blank (email@example.com) for additional information on the project or suggestions of potential essay topics.
Deadline for contributor submissions is February 1, 2008 (special arrangements can be made to allot for more time, if needed).
Contributors should review the Utah State University Press author guidelines (http://www.usu.edu/usupress/publish/) for information on style requirements.

[The skill set of a second grader. When a reporter asked me, "is it the locker room placement?" i thought, for many decades men and women have been figuring this out OK, because we learned this in KINDERGARTEN]The Ahearn Fieldhouse Locker Room is apparently not safe for women.
(Like every other building, apartment, parking lot, street, beach, hiking trail, bar, or festival; where women are being spied on, stalked, preyed upon, beaten, harassed, raped, or assaulted--)
I am in THIS instance referring to reports from K-State Faculty
that K-State women are now dealing with one more unsafe place:
men have been coming into the Women's locker room in Ahearn.
Can we not have any safe place?
|ladies room EXPLANATION
From Dawn to Dusk...
We are already closing and locking our windows at night, keeping the beautiful Autumn air out of our homes and apartments.
We are already NOT
jogging at night, taking a solitary hike, or giving our acquaintances a ride home.
(Because our acquaintances are raping us.)
We are already NOT able to leave a pepsi or beer unattended for 10 FREAKING minutes, lest we be drugged;
we are already NOT filming the sunrise or sunset alone at the lake.
We are already locking our doors and windows all day and all night.
We are already putting FEAR into our children in the hopes to keep them safe.
What the HELL is the matter with men, you ask?
(It isn't all men)
This is not the "fault" of anyone in charge-[[YET- because every new assault on our freedom, on our security, on our daily lives is addressed and dealt with. One by one.]] I bet the folks in charge of Ahearn, of security, of campus safety, are decent people. --( UPDATE- I should have said, i meant to say, i'd put money on the idea (and i guess i take for granted that in fact, those in charge are ) the cream of the crop and live lives of good service
Maybe their blood boils too. But how long are we going to tell women to lower their risk-instead of looking at perpetrators?
Why just mop up
the blood,
one pool at a time, instead of looking at the growing problem?
Women keep coming forward, reporting, risking, showing their pain, and no one is held accountable.
Rape after rape, and no one is punished.
Beating after beating, and no one is punished.
If there is no punishment, why would a man prone to these behaviors stop?
When will women be rewarded for all the sacrifice of trying to have a safe life, of trying to make others' lives safer?
Reporting crimes is a hard thing to do.
It causes everyone you love great pain.
Many people won't believe you.
Those who report are afraid of retaliation.
We can't have a locker room!?
We can't be secure in our locker room now!?
Fu'Cryin' Out loud!
There is going to HAVE to be a more comprehensive look at violence against women.
There is going to HAVE to be a way that we look at the larger picture, and put some effort into the bullying culture that a large group are getting away with.
I am so tired
so ridden with
anger and sadness
frustration and feelings of bitterness
when sweet beautiful girls and women come to me
tricked violated hurt raped hit lied to spat upon and utterly disrespected as humans.
They are too young to see that it has nothing to do with them;
that these bullying selfish thugs manifest themselves where ever they can.
If a man is caught in Ahearn Fieldhouse Women's Locker Room, what will happen?
Will it be One Strike?
Will he get a WARNING?
This is your first Last Chance.
Will he be
expelled and banned from campus?
Or will someone believe him when he says,
"Oh, Man, I didn't know, i thought that was the men's."
I PROMISE you he will say that.
Which makes the fact that he was crouching
in a hiding place near the locker room ok why?
I'm going to wrap my head with duct tape now
According to The President's Commission on the Status of Women, the administration in this area have jumped right on this. One, they are going to talk to the people who work in
the Natatorium and Ahearn in the evenings and make them aware of what's happened so they'll keep their eyes open. There will be further discussion on how to improve the safety of the area, and in the meantime, they will start locking the north entrance to the women's locker room at 5 p.m. Since it has a panic bar, women will still be able to leave through that door, but nobody will be able to come in. The south side gets more use in the evenings, so that should be easier to watch. Bruce Shubert said they will discuss the possibility of adding security cameras at the doors to the locker room.
Holey MOLEY!!
a Collegian reporter just sent me some questions regarding this: among the questions was,
"Do you see this as part of a larger problem across campus with men targeting women or is this an issue of locker room placement within Ahearn? "

Sigh. Yes, there is a larger issue......

Every year I look at the Saints' schedule and try to predict how many games they will win. The problem with this is that we have absolutely no clue how good any of the teams they play against will be. Sure, we know which teams will be elite and which teams will be cellar dwellers, but we don't exactly know what is going on in the middle of the pack. With the parity in the NFL, it's impossible to have a good read on every single team.
That's why I have scrapped my annual Saints Season Preview. Normally I would break down the division and schedule but when you think about it, it's really pointless. I mean, who knows how good Denver will be in September and how the Packers will be playing in October? It's hard enough to project one team's success. Can you imagine projecting every team on their schedule's success? For this reason, I have decided to simply give you 11 predictions for the only team I really have a read on (or at least think I do): the New Orleans Saints...
And here they are, in absolutely no particular order:
The Saints will find a suitable cornerback to play opposite Mike McKenzie
The only question now is which cornerback it will be. Randall Gay is solid but unspectacular. Tracy Porter has all the tools but lacks game experience. Usama Young has shown flashes but still has to put it all together. Aaron Glenn can still play but due to his age he isn't the long term answer at cornerback. As of right now my best guess is that Tracy Porter emerges as the long term solution although he may endure some trials and tribulations.
Deuce McAllister will resemble the back he was in 2006
He has shown flashes of his former self in the preseason and I think there's more in store. I see Deuce getting better as the year goes on and being a vital cog in the Saints' offense. In 2006 he carried 244 times for 1,057 yards and 10 touchdowns. I expect similar numbers, but with less carries. I wouldn't be surprised to see him get somewhere around 200 carries and finish with somewhere around 900 yards.
Drew Brees will make the Pro Bowl
He'll be as good this season as he has ever been. He's determined not start to this season the same way he started last season. If you take away those first four games from last season he has a monster season. I expect his attempts and completions to drop but I believe his completion percentage and touchdowns will remain about the same. He is poised and surrounded with as many weapons as any other quarterback in the league and he knows how to utilize them.
Reggie Bush will finally find himself as an NFL player
This will be the season that realizes his potential and becomes a force in the NFL. However, it may not be through the means that everyone expects. It won't be through 20 carries a game and 4 yards per carry. It will be through select running plays that utilize his strengths and in a passing game where he is able to exploit mismatches. He'll have 1,800 total yards and score 10 touchdowns.
Sedrick Ellis will be everything he is hyped up to be and more
He's the opposite of Jonathan Sullivan. He will create a pass rush from the center of the defensive line and will be a nightmare for interior lineman. He'll be a disruption in the opponent's running game and will be the defensive tackle the Saints have been missing since the 90's. He'll demand double teams and keep the lineman off of the linebackers. It may not always be evident but he'll have a huge impact on his teammates on the defensive side of the ball.
Pierre Thomas will see an increased role
He has shown the ability to be a threat as a runner and as a receiver and that's what he'll be. He will spell Deuce and Reggie at times and will be a compliment to both. I expect him to get about 100 carries and around 30 receptions, both large increases from last year. He'll also be a major factor in the return game.
The weakest position on the team will be safety
Roman Harper has been a pretty solid performer during his career, but after him there isn't much else. Josh Bullocks is better against the run and Kevin Kaesviharn is better against the pass. If we could mold them into one player we'd be in good shape but that simply isn't the case. We will have to learn to live with the weaknesses of each and hope defenses can't consistently expose them. I believe that adding a starting safety will the be the top priority once the season ends.
The Saints will have a positive turnover ratio
Last year the Saints turned it over 30 times on offense and forced only 23 turnovers on defense. This made their takeaway/giveaway differential -7, which ranked 22nd in the NFL. This year, I believe the improved pass rush will lead to more forced turnovers for the defense. On the offensive side of the ball, I believe Drew Brees will reduce his interception total and the backs and receivers will put it on the turf less than they did last season.
Jonathan Vilma will start slowly but will eventually be an impact player
You don't stop playing football for 9 months and then just become an All-Pro again. It just doesn't work that way. Vilma will require time to get back to the level he played at in New York, but he will get there. He needs more game experience to become more comfortable with the Saints' calls, schemes, and terminology. He will take a couple of weeks to shake off the rust, but once he does, watch out. He'll be the active, quick reacting, sideline-to-sideline field general the Saints have been missing for years.
The starters on the offensive line will change during the season
There are a few questions concerning the offensive line. One is whether or not Jonathan Goodwin can handle the load at center. Another is whether the line can consistently create holes for the running game. The offensive line is deep and has some talented young guys who could be in position for playing time if the unit shows signs of struggling. If Carl Nicks can catch on he could be a devastating run blocker at the guard position and Jermon Bushrod has strength necessary to be a mauler as well. I wouldn't be totally surprised to see Nesbit slide over to center and Nicks take his place at guard at some point during the season.
The Saints will win the NFC South
They will win the NFC South and secure either the 2 or 3 seed in the NFC. In order to win the division the Saints need to go at least 4-2 in division play. That would mean sweeping Atlanta and splitting with Carolina and Tampa Bay. If they go 3-3 or less I think it's really going to be an uphill battle in order to win the division. Last season the Saints went 3-3 in division play, losing to Tampa Bay twice. The difference in record between the Saints and the division champion Buccaneers? Two games. I see them going 4-2 in division play and around 6-4 during the rest of their schedule.

ENOLA - The Greenwood boys basketball team continued to display its District 3 Class A supremacy Monday night in a one-sided matchup with Commonwealth Christian Athletic Conference foe Harrisburg Christian.
The 12th-seeded Knights - the only team to enter the district field with a sub-.500 record and upset two opponents on the way to the semis - traded buckets with the Wildcats in the first quarter, but the Tri-Valley League champion was too strong and the defending champions pulled away in a 57-24 rout.
The Knights (12-12) sat in a soft zone to start, slowing the pace of the game while forcing the 'Cats to rely on their jump shooters for the bulk of the production. Fortunately for Greenwood, its shooters came ready to play, netting seven early field goals, three of which came from three-point land.

"We knew what they were going to do defensively," Greenwood coach Kent Houser said. " We knew we were going to have to shoot the ball well and I thought we did."
The Knights were paced by Johnathan Underkoffler, who netted nine first-quarter points including a 3-pointer, while teammate Connor Shroyer also dropped one from beyond the arc on his way to an eight-point stanza.
"We knew they could shoot the three," Houser said. "The Underkoffler kid came off hot as can be and he really hurt us - Ryan (Kerstetter) finally buckled down and did a real nice job on him from there on out."
Fact Box
* Greenwood takes on Lebanon Catholic at 5 p.m. Friday at Giant Center in Hershey
Greenwood was led by Josh Ferguson, Adam Harrison and Ryan Kerstetter in the opening round of the bout, scoring five, five and eight respectively.
Much like the Wildcats' quarterfinal game, the squad went on a defensive tear in the second quarter, shutting out the Knights while going on an 18-1 run that put the visitors in the rearview mirror. The 'Cats held the visitors scoreless for 13 minutes, playing active man-to-man defense that forced seven first-half turnovers. Amid the run, Ferguson picked up his fourth foul with three minutes remaining in the third, but the championship pedigree was evident as Greenood was unfazed, looking to the next man to get the job done.
"Once we decided we were going to play, we had some kids come off the bench who really did a nice job in the second quarter defensively," Houser said.
The Wildcat defense continued to stymie the CCAC team, allowing zero field goals across a span of 18 minutes while outrebounding the opponent - squashing the 12-seed's hopes for a third-straight upset in its tournament run.
The Knights continued to sit in a soft zone and the 'Cats continued to pounce, utilizing solid ball movement in the dwindling seconds of the third quarter, holding for the final shot. Kerstetter found a void in the defense and took advantage with a dribble on the right wing and a jump shot that found the bottom of the net.
The buzzer went off and so did the Greenwood student section: "I SMELL HERSHEY!"
Up 40-19 entering the final period, the 'Cats continued to apply pressure on the Knights, who abandoned their soft-zone plan for a man-to-man defense. The result was the same, however, as the Wildcats sought and found a different way to score. Ferguson beat his man on three-straight possessions, cutting to the basket for easy buckets in the paint.
"We knew if we could get them in a man-to-man that that's not what they prefer to play and we'd be OK at that point," Houser said.
Greenwood was led by Kerstetter, who netted 15 from beyond the arc on his way to a game-high 25 points. Ferguson was steady, chipping in 13 of his own.
The Wildcats (21-3) will make their fourth straight appearance in the District 3 Class A championship game Friday, looking to defend for the first time. They'll face a familiar foe in Lebanon Catholic, which won its semifinal matchup over New Hope.
"We know Lebanon Catholic pretty well and we've had a lot of great battles with them over the years - we have a lot of respect for their program," Houser said. "We know we're going to have to be prepared to play and we have to come out and start a little better than we have the last two games."
Tip-off for Friday's game is 5 p.m. at Hershey's Giant Center.

By Jack Elliot Jr./The Associated Press
JACKSON — The next time you're talking with candidates for the Legislature, ask if they think everyone should pay their fair share of sales taxes.
Then, ask if that applies to folks in Mississippi who buy online.
Then, ask why the Legislature hasn't done anything.
If they know — and that's a big if — they likely can't explain it in laymen's terms.
Just know that implementing an online sales tax requires states to jump more hurdles than you'd find in an average steeplechase.
Or, as Mississippi Department of Revenue spokeswoman Kathy Waterbury, who gets asked about it a lot, says: "The answer to the question is not a simple one; the response usually creates more questions."
"I'm afraid too many believe that there is an easy fix to collecting online sales tax," she said.
States want residents to pay sales taxes on all the things they buy. Online shoppers, this means you.
States are looking at various means to address the issue, especially in light of tight budgets and without violating a 1992 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that prohibits a state from forcing businesses to collect sales taxes unless the business has a physical presence, such as a store, in that state.
States are trying to get around that restriction by enacting laws that broaden the definition of a physical presence. Retailers are resisting becoming as tax collectors.
The Supreme Court ruling has meant that Wal-Mart Stores Inc., based in Bentonville, Ark., would collect taxes from shoppers in all states with sales taxes, whether those shoppers buy items on or off the Web, because it has stores nationwide.
But Amazon, for example, based in Seattle, wouldn't collect taxes from Mississippi residents because it doesn't have a presence here.
Some states are now saying a retailer has a physical presence when it uses affiliates — people and businesses that refer customers to the retailer's website and collect a commission on sales. These affiliates range from one-person blogs promoting the latest gadgets to companies that run coupon and deal sites.
Illinois passed a law requiring Internet companies with affiliates in that state to collect taxes on sales to Illinois customers. New York, North Carolina and Rhode Island have already adopted similar laws.
In Colorado, a law requires online retailers to either collect the tax or send customers an annual notice letting them know how much they owe their state. Retailers would also have to report that to Colorado officials.
Here, in a recent editorial, The Mississippi Press in Pascagoula said collecting the sales tax would create more money for public services. The editorial noted that online retailers oppose such laws because they use their tax-free status as a marketing tool.
"It's unfair to local retailers, who must collect sales taxes from customers. These businesses support state and local services with their tax collections, and they deserve to be on a level playing field with Internet retailers," the editorial said.
Waterbury said about 1,600 online sellers voluntarily collect Mississippi sales tax, which brought in about $36 million in fiscal year 2010.
Congress could give states authority to require tax collection by out-of-state retailers. Efforts have stalled because, some say, Congress is being asked to pass legislation where they could be criticized as imposing a new tax.
A group of states also came up with the Streamlined Sales Tax Agreement, an attempt to create some levels of uniformity to ease the burden for national online merchants to collect the sales taxes.
Waterbury said adopting the SSTA requires states to rewrite the sales tax laws. Waterbury said Mississippi would not pick and choose specific parts of the agreement to apply. She said the requirement for a uniform set of definitions and rules is all or nothing.
Waterbury said the Legislature would have to look at all tax rates, exemptions and exclusions. She said that could mean some taxpayers could pay more; others, less. She said some cities, which get back every year a portion of the sales tax, could receive less money; others, more.

Session 43 - Source Surveys.
Display session, Wednesday, June 11
South Main Hall,
Our VLA survey to create Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-cm has now covered 5000 deg^2 of the North Galacitic Cap and detected over 450,000 radio sources with subarcsecond positions down to the survey threshold of 1 mJy. An extensive program of optical followup observations has begun, and we report here on several of the interesting results obtained to date. Although fewer than 0.1% of the objects in the survey are expected to be associated with nearby stars, FIRST still represents by far the most sensitive unbiased survey for stellar radio emission ever undertaken. We have begun by examining all known stars within 25 pc of the Sun; seven are detected, several for the first time. Since proper motion uncertainties are the principal barrier to stellar identifications, the imminent release of the Hipparchos catalog will greatly expand the FIRST bright-star sample. There are, of course, thousands of faint stellar counterparts to FIRST sources, but the vast majority of these are quasars. The FIRST Bright Quasar Survey has provided spectroscopic followup for a sample of stellar radio counterparts complete over 2500 deg^2 to a POSS I E-magnitude of 17.5. Over 400 new quasars have been detected, including the FIRST radio-loud BAL objects and some remarkably luminous sources such as an E=16.5 qso at z=3.8. A status report on this survey will be presented. Finally, we have used followup optical and IR imaging as well as multislit spectroscopy of fields containing bent double radio sources to identify moderate to high-redshift clusters of galaxies. Keck observations of a sample of ten candidates show that at least eight contain clusters with redshifts ranging from 0.45 to 0.85. The results from recent 2 micron imaging of bent doubles in blank fields will also be presented. The FIRST project is supported by grants from the National Geographic Society, the National Science Foundation, NATO, IGPP, Columbia University, and Sun Microsystems.
