Was in HHGREGG today and the guy was telling me he had in the 90" Sharp for something like $9,500. and I was wondering why Samsung does not have out any 80" or 90" sets yet. What you think?

The best reason I can guess is that 1080p doesn't look very good above 65". The Sharp 80" sets need to be viewed from at least 12' away because the displays don't appear very HD closer and are quite grainy. When 4K sets are introduced, you'll probably see more very large sets.

Samsung can't produce panels bigger than 65" economically. Sharp is the only owner of a factory which can produce that big panels.

David Crawford Hall, a longtime resident of the Back Mountain, died early Sunday morning, Sept. 9, 2012 at his home in Dallas after a brief illness. He was 88.
Mr. Hall was born March 1, 1924, in Marietta, Ohio, to Allen and Ida Davis Hall.
He grew up in Marietta and attended Marietta High School. He was a graduate of Princeton University, where he received a bachelor's degree, and Harvard University, where he received a master's in engineering.
During World War II, he served his country in the Aleutian Islands working on airstrips that were developed for the war effort.
He originally moved to the area in the late '40s, when he married Marian Newton Powell, a native of the Back Mountain and the daughter of William and Janet Powell, then lived in California for many years where he owned a metal perforating company. For a brief period they lived in Panama, where he did civil engineering work related to canal transportation, and then on their return to the area, he went to work for her family's company, Diamond Manufacturing Company. They had three children, David, Patricia and William. When they divorced in the late 1950s, he moved back to California.
For many years he ran Diamond Perforated Metals Inc. in Gardena, California. He successfully steered the business from its base in perforated metal into expanded metal and provided many of the metal dividers in the state's freeway system.
In the late 1970s, the business was sold to Toyomenka, a Japanese trading company. He then moved to New York, where he lived for about a year, examining potential acquisitions in North and South America for Toyomenka.
In the early 1980s he and his second wife, Kathryn Shindel Valentine, moved back to the Wyoming Valley to be closer to her children, Jonathan and Frederick, who still live here.
He and Fred Valentine went into the printing business together, buying Llewellyn and McKane, which Mr. Valentine now owns and runs.
A successful businessman, he always gave generously to his community and to his family, with a particular dedication to education. He served on the board of trustees of Wilkes College and the board of the Northeastern Philharmonic.
Mr. Hall was a founding member of the Huntsville Golf Club, where he was a regular fixture until the last year or so, when he found it more difficult to get around.
He was a modest man with a dry sense of humor and was well-known in the Wilkes Barre area as an avid and accomplished bridge player. His local bridge-playing friends were a crucial community, and he often wondered aloud how anyone could live without bridge. He won many tournaments and even in the last week of his life played bridge online. He was an old Life Master having surpassed 2500 MP's. He played at the Jewish Community Center for many years, as well as in other venues and online for many hours a week with his son David.
He liked to tell his friends and family that his mother neglected to suggest a career but insisted on three things: that he learn golf, tennis and bridge. He obeyed her directives on all three, although in later years he had to give up tennis and golf.
He was predeceased by his wife, Kathryn, in 2002, and by his sisters, Dr. Alida Harrington and Dr. Virginia Goodrich.
He leaves a large and devoted family: his son David, known as Deke, his wife, Susan, of Leesport, Pa., and their children, David and Jessie; daughter, Patricia Hall, known as Trish, and her husband, Lawrence Wolhandler and their daughter, Hally, all of New York; son William Hall, known as Bill, and his wife, Denise Strojny-Hall, of Bethesda, Md., and their children Emily and Justin; his stepsons, Jonathan Valentine and his wife, Mary, of Dallas and his children, Susan and Jonathan; Fred Valentine of Dallas and his son, Alex.
Friends may call Wednesday, September 12, 2012 from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Harold C. Snowdon Funeral Home Inc., 140 N. Main Street, Shavertown. A private interment will be made in Huntsville Cemetery.

Operatic pop group Il Divo doing Riverside show May 11
The Simon Cowell-created operatic pop group Il Divo will be doing a show at the Riverside Theater on May 11.
The quartet — consisting of American tenor David Miller, French singer Sebastien Izambard, Swiss tenor Urs Buhler and Spanish baritone Carlos Marin — is best known for taking well-known songs, like Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" and Chris Issak's "Wicked Game" (the name of the group's last studio album in 2011), sung and singing them opera-style, frequently in foreign languages, atop dramatic classical arrangements. Its current tour has been dubbed "Best of Il Divo," in support of its "Greatest Hits" compilation released last year. »Read Full Article

Memoir recalls painful struggle with polio
Jerry Apps' nightmare arrived in the middle of the night in a setting Stephen King would have loved: an isolated Waushara County farmhouse buried under January snows.
This nightmare began in 1947 with what seemed like a simple sore throat, but the horror quickly seeped into Apps' right leg, paralyzing it at an angle. At age 12, Apps had been stricken with polio, and his world would never be the same. »Read Full Article
'Catch Me if You Can' has trouble getting airborne at Marcus Center
By the time he was 21, Frank Abagnale had cashed more than $2 million in bad checks, while passing himself off as a pilot, doctor and lawyer.
Not to be outdone, the low-budget "Catch Me if You Can," on stage at the Marcus Center through Sunday, spends more than two interminable hours impersonating various ideas of a decent show. True to the maxim that form follows content, it doesn't just tell the story of a fake. It also gives us one, at thrice the price of other shows now playing in town. »Read Full Article(8)

Fatal occupational injuries by industry, 2003
September 30, 2004
In 2003, agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting had the highest rate of fatal work injuries of any industry sector: 31.2 fatalities per 100,000 workers.
The second highest rate was in the mining sector (26.9 per 100,000), followed by transportation and warehousing (17.5 per 100,000) and construction (11.7 per 100,000). In comparison, the overall rate in the U.S. was 4.0 per 100,000.
The largest number of fatal work injuries in 2003 was in the construction sector. The 1,126 fatal work injuries in private construction accounted for more than one out of every five workplace fatalities in 2003.
These data come from the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI), part of the BLS Injuries, Illnesses, and Fatalities program. Additional information is available from "National Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries in 2003" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 04-1830. Note: The mining industry includes oil and gas extraction.
Note on industry classification: Beginning with the 2003 reference year, CFOI began using the 2002 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Prior to 2003, the program used the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system. Because of the substantial differences between the current and previous systems, the results by industry in 2003 constitute a break in series, and users are advised against making comparisons between the 2003 industry categories and the results for previous years.
Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, The Economics Daily, Fatal occupational injuries by industry, 2003 on the Internet at http://www.bls.gov/opub/ted/2004/sept/wk4/art04.htm (visited September 27, 2016).

So it should be a surprise to anyone that Justin Bieber has decided to collaborate on a song with country music's queen, Taylor Swift. During an interview with U.K. radio station Capital FM, the singer talked about the collabo which should appear on the singer's new LP, saying:
"You know, the whole album is just so different, there's so many different people collaborating. It's crazy. I mean I even wrote a song with Taylor Swift, so the whole album ranges differently."
Justin and Taylor hooking up musically is interesting, if you consider the fact that Bieber just Punk'd Swift For MTV.
No hard feelings, huh?
We're also intrigued by the fact that Taylor seems to be willing to team up with different artists outside her musical spectrum (this news is coming out around the time her collaboration with rap star B.o.B. dropped.)
So what do you think of Justin and Taylor collaborating?

Mr. Dell and Desktop Linux
Michael Dell, chairman of Dell Inc. believes in offering Linux on the desktop, server, and workstation. What he doesn't believe in, for now, is giving Linux full support on the desktop. In an exclusive interview, Dell explained his company's Linux desktop strategy to DesktopLinux.com's Steven J. Vaughan Nichols.
"People are always asking us to support Linux on the desktop, but the question is: 'Which Linux are you talking about?'," Dell asked.
"If we say we like Ubuntu, then people will say we picked the wrong one. If we say we like and support Ubuntu, Novell, Red Hat, and Xandros, then someone would ask us, 'Why don't you support Mandriva? The challenge we have with picking one is that we think we'd disenchant the other distributions' supporters."

My basic rule on budgeting is live on 1/2, spend 1/4 (as you please) and save 1/4 of your weekly/monthly/yearly income.
I prefer to budget month to month. I am paid biweekly, resulting in 2 "extra" paychecks a year. Rather than budget these 2 paychecks in my monthly cycle, I choose to save them or use them for major purchases. This makes the earned income feel like my own personal bonus! Currently these "extra" paychecks show up around the Holidays and when my yearly lease is up, so the excess cash is greatly appreciated.
Live – this portion of my budget includes:
- Rent or Mortgage
- Utilities (Power, Gas, Cable, Internet)
- Groceries
- Transportation
- Health
The first three categories are a bit obvious, but the next two also feed into savings.
For those of you that have a car, you know how much of a money trap it is. My Transportation category includes Car Repairs, Gas and Metro (since I use public transportation). The secret is to budget about $50 a month toward Car Repairs, whatever you do not use, put in your savings and record. This $50 a month adds up quick (totaling $600 a year) and provides you with a little buffer just in case something happens.
The same theory goes behind my health budget. I am young so I only save $25 a month for my health. This adds up to $300 a year and provides a little buffer just in case. As I get older, and hopefully my income increases, I will start saving more simply because,hey, you never know.
One of my friends whom I help budget puts all health related things in her Health category. This is perfectly fine, but realize part of this category's purpose is to be prepared for the unexpected. Just add more money to this category if you plan to include items like sunscreen, etc.
Now onto breakfast!
This morning I had my usual coffee and Kirkland oatmeal with twist. Kirkland oatmeal (aka Costco oatmeal) is $8.99 for a box of 55 packets. This equals out to about 16 cents a packet.
I love Kath's oatmeal creations but I don't have the time in the morning. Instead I use instant oatmeal and add what I like to call a "spark".
This morning I had the Kirkland Apple and Cinnamon Oatmeal and added flax seed and Craisins. It was delicious!
And, coffee, of course! In my Preston Mug!! I almost miss being awoken in the middle of the night to deal with my residents, almost. I definitely miss all the interesting people I met being an RA.
Check back later on how I budget my spending money!
What do you include in your fixed budget?

Little-Known Medical Marijuana Loophole Allows Teens To Get Lots of Pot By Jennifer Wing • Jun 30, 2014 Courtesy of George Wing. When voters approved Initiative 502, one part of the law that appealed to parents was that recreational marijuana would only be available to people 21 and older. What many parents don't realize is that it's possible for a healthy teenager, with the help of an unethical medical provider, to obtain authorization for medical marijuana, which then gives them access to hundreds of dispensaries in the Seattle area. Meanwhile, Seattle Public Schools officials say marijuana use by students is on the rise, and students say it is easier to get than alcohol. Where is the supply coming from? Parents and school officials suspect medical marijuana dispensaries. In Signing Pre-K Bill, Seattle Mayor Makes Early Ed Ballot Showdown Official By Kyle Stokes • Jun 27, 2014 Photo courtesy of Mayor Ed Murray's Office The idea of pitting two questions about early childhood education against each other on the November ballot doesn't appeal to Laura Chandler. "I don't like it, I wish it wasn't like that," said Chandler, a teacher at Small Faces Child Development Center. She supports a union-backed initiative to create a broader training program and raise wages for childcare workers. But Sattl1e Mayor Ed Murray officially sent a second question to the ballot Friday, signing off on the Seattle City Council's plan asking for voters' approval of a $58 million property tax hike to pay for low- and middle-income kids to attend preschool. Gates Ed. Official: Protesters Raise 'Legitimate Concerns,' But OK To Disagree By Kyle Stokes • Jun 27, 2014 Flickr / Education, Labor & Workforce Committee Democrats More than 150 skeptics of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation protested in front of the philanthropy's Seattle headquarters on Thursday, objecting to the foundation's support of, among other things, the Common Core academic standards. On the afternoon before that protest, a top Gates official told KPLU that the foundation has been open to teachers' concerns about the new standards. Why A Group Of Teachers Protested Outside The Gates Foundation, Ed's Biggest Charity By Kyle Stokes • Jun 26, 2014 Kyle Stokes At first, Julianna Dauble balked at the idea of protesting against the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. "We've all gotten Gates money one way or another," said Dauble, a fifth-grade teacher in Renton. "I don't know a single teacher who has not gotten Gates money for computers, different grants, small schools initiatives — all the things he's done in the Seattle area, especially." In fact, the Gates Foundation sends more money to K-12 education causes around the U.S. than any other philanthropy, and some teachers have come to regard that influence as a threat. Seattle Voters Must Choose Between Mayor's Pre-K Program, Union-Backed Childcare Plan By Kyle Stokes • Jun 23, 2014 Kyle Stokes Two proposals dealing with early childhood learning will appear on Seattle ballots this November, but only one can win. That's the electoral scenario Seattle City Council members set up Monday with their vote to put a proposed preschool pilot program on the November ballot, formally asking voters to hike property taxes to join cities like Denver and Boston in funding an early childhood education program aimed at low-income families. But voters will have to make a choice. They can approve either the pilot program or Initiative 107, a union-backed citizens' initiative that raises the minimum wage to $15 an hour for more than 4,000 childcare workers and creates a training program for early childhood educators. UW Researcher: 1 In 8 Children At Risk Of Maltreatment, Rate Higher For Minorities By Kyle Stokes • Jun 23, 2014 Wilfredo Lee / AP Photo It's the kind of case that walks into the King County Sexual Assault Resource Center maybe once a week: Imagine a single mother, trying to hold down multiple jobs to hold her family together, turning to a neighbor for help taking care of her kids while she works. But that neighbor ends up assaulting one of her children. And then the neighbor "gives [the child] the message, 'If you tell anybody, I won't be able to help your family anymore, you'll be taken out of your home and your mom won't believe you,'" said King County Sexual Assault Resource Center's executive director Mary Ellen Stone. Seattle Schools Superintendent Banda Poised To Leave Post For Sacramento Job By Kyle Stokes • Jun 20, 2014 Gabriel Spitzer Seattle Public Schools Superintendent José Banda expects to leave his post before the end of July after being named the only finalist for a superintendent position in Sacramento, California. The Sacramento City Unified School District's school board could confirm Banda's hire as soon as July 17. Free College For All: Dream, Promise Or Fantasy? By Anya Kamenetz • Jun 19, 2014 "Free" is a word with a powerful appeal. And right now it's being tossed around a lot, followed by another word: "college." A new nonprofit, Redeeming America's Promise, announced this week that it will seek federal support to make public colleges tuition-free. That effort is inspired by "Hope" and "Promise" programs like the one in Kalamazoo, Mich., which pays up to 100 percent of college tuition at state colleges and universities for graduates of the city's public high schools. Seattle City Council Delays Preschool Vote After New Ballot Initiative Comes To Light By Kyle Stokes • Jun 16, 2014 Charla Bear / KPLU The Seattle City Council on Monday delayed a vote on a proposed preschool expansion plan following last week's announcement that a separate referendum had gained enough signatures to appear on the November ballot. Seattle Mayor Ed Murray asked the council to hold off and study how Initiative 107, a "potentially competing proposal," would impact the chances of the preschool pilot program city leaders had also hoped to put before voters in the next general election. Seattle Voters May See More Than One Preschool Measure On November Ballot By Kyle Stokes • Jun 16, 2014 Eric Gay / AP Photo Seattle City Council members appear ready to approve two preschool-related ballot items for this November's ballot. The council will likely vote at its Monday meeting to ask Seattle voters to approve a package Seattle City Council President Tim Burgess has been pushing for the past year: a preschool pilot program funded by a four-year, $58 million property tax hike. But council members will also likely certify that a separate, union-backed initiative has received enough signatures to go to the voters. If approved, Initiative 107 would hike the minimum wage to $15 an hour for more than 4,000 childcare workers and create a training program for early childhood educators. Washington Supreme Court Orders 'State' To Contempt Hearing In McCleary Case By Austin Jenkins • Jun 13, 2014 Ted S. Warren / AP Photo A frustrated Washington Supreme Court appears ready to hold state officials in contempt. The high court late Thursday ordered the "state" to appear at a hearing in September to address the lack of a plan to fully fund basic education. Seattle School Board Rejects District's Choice For New Math Textbooks, Makes Its Own Pick By Kyle Stokes • Jun 4, 2014 Judy Baxter / Flickr Seattle School Board members bucked the advice of a district-led group charged with picking a new math textbook for the district's 27,000 elementary students, choosing instead, by a 4-3 vote Wednesday night, to formally pick a different set of materials. But Seattle Public Schools staff estimates the move will come at a cost, nearly doubling the purchase price for the textbooks and the additional teacher training that comes with them. Which Math Books Will Seattle Kids Use? School Board To Vote Tonight By Kyle Stokes • Jun 4, 2014 AP Photo Most Seattle elementary students will likely be using new math textbooks next year, and if a few members of the school board have their way, they might not all be the same textbooks. Seattle School Board members will vote Wednesday on whether to allow school principals to decide between two sets of math textbooks, worksheets and materials rather than mandate which one to use. Millennials: The Greenest Generation Or More Of The Same? By Kyle Stokes • Jun 2, 2014 When she was much younger, Tacoma high school senior Lauren Budd had no trouble convincing her parents to start recycling. But more recently, swaying them to eco-friendly light bulbs was another story. "No, it costs too much," Budd, 17, remembered her parents saying. "And I'm like, 'It won't, in the end for, like, our power bill.'" Budd doesn't always win with her parents, who still throw away a soft drink can on occasion, but it's clear she's not the only teen to grasp the importance of these small, cross-generational battles. To Fight Students' 'Summer Hunger,' Sen. Murray Pushes Debit Cards For Lunches By Gabriel Spitzer • May 30, 2014 Gabriel Spitzer / KPLU With summer approaching, families who rely on school lunches have to make plans for how to fill the gap. United States Sen. Patty Murray says the answer is to subsidize their grocery shopping. There's already a big federal program – the Summer Food Service Program – to serve lunches to kids who qualify for food subsidies. Speaking at a Central Area elementary school, Washington's senior senator said those programs can be hard to access, as families have to bring their kids to designated locations during certain hours. Her office said just 10 percent of Washington children participated in 2012. Sen. Murray wants to put a debit card in the hands of each of those families that they can use to buy food, much as one would use food stamps. On Pace For 60,000 Kids By Decade's End, Seattle Schools' Enrollment Grows Again By Kyle Stokes • May 27, 2014 rafael-castillo / Flickr Another 1,300 children will pack into already-crowded Seattle Public Schools next year as the district rides a wave of population growth that, if trends hold, could swell enrollment to more than 60,000 students by the end of the decade. Projections district administrators released Tuesday show enrollment growing to more than 52,300 students next school year — an increase of more than 7,000 students from seven years ago, when enrollment bottomed-out after a decade of decline. Survey: Most Seattle Kids Enrolled In Pre-K, But Not As Many Attend Full-Time By Kyle Stokes • May 27, 2014 Cliff Owen / AP Photo Most Seattle parents put their kids in preschool, but only one-third of the city's children attend full time and — according to results of a citywide survey of 1,300 parents released Tuesday — black and Latino families especially struggle to afford pre-K services. The results of the city-commissioned poll come less than a week before City Council members get their first look at legislation that would place a four-year, $58 million property tax question before voters this November that would eventually fund 2,000 pre-K slots in the city if approved. As Seattle Mulls Pre-K Program, We Ask: Why Require Teachers To Have B.A.'s? By Kyle Stokes • May 22, 2014 Ted S. Warren / AP Photo Here's a bitter pill preschool teachers must often swallow: they could probably make more money by teaching kids who are just one year older. The average Washington state preschool instructor makes $28,400 annually — half of what he or she could earn teaching kindergarten. In public school settings, a kindergarten teacher takes home $53,800 every year to a pre-K teacher's $44,700. It makes it harder to lure the best teachers into preschool jobs, or keep them beyond their first few often-rocky years in the classroom. "I think early childhood is often more attractive than the higher grades for many [teachers], and the pay is so low it still keeps them away," said Steve Barnett, director of the National Institute for Early Education Research. As Seattle Mulls Pre-K Program, We Ask: What's The Long-Term Cost? By Kyle Stokes • May 21, 2014 Eric Gay / AP Photo "Lattés cost more," said Seattle Mayor Ed Murray of the property tax hike homeowners would see on their monthly bills if voters approve his proposal to expand the city's preschool services. Under the proposed four-year, $58 billion tax hike, Murray says the average Seattle homeowner would pay an extra $3.60 in property taxes each month to fund a pilot project serving 2,000 mostly low-income preschool-age kids. City leaders hope the program will eventually serve even some middle-class preschoolers in the future. But that will cost more money, and Murray isn't clear yet on from where that funding will come. As Seattle Mulls Pre-K Program, We Ask: What Impact Does Early Learning Have? By Kyle Stokes • May 20, 2014 Eric Gay / AP Photo Some children have never held a pencil or a pair of scissors when they start the year in teacher DaZanne Davis Porter's kindergarten class. They enter her classroom at Seattle's Martin Luther King, Jr. Elementary at the beginning of the year and "cannot recognize any letters, any colors, any numbers, any shapes," Davis Porter said. "By the end of the year, they are [expected] to be reading." "When you're starting the journey behind," she asked, "do they ever catch up?" If Seattle Creates Preschool Program, Multilingual Providers Would Have Leg Up By Kyle Stokes • May 16, 2014 Kyle Stokes / KPLU If Seattle voters approve a property tax hike to expand preschool access, the program would start small, paying for a handful of providers to teach a little more than a dozen classrooms of students in its first year. How will the city choose those few providers? Those teaching preschool kids in multiple languages have a better chance of getting picked. Seattle Mayor Proposes Property Tax Levy To Fund Preschool For Low-Income Families By Kyle Stokes • May 15, 2014 Ted S. Warren / AP Photo Seattle Mayor Ed Murray has proposed a property tax levy to increase low-income children's access to preschool. Murray is asking voters to approve a four-year, $58 million property tax hike to enroll 2,000 children in 100 classrooms by the year 2018. The plan would cost the average homeowner $43.36 per year, or $3.61 per month, the mayor said. "I believe that giving all of our children a fair and equal chance to thrive in school, to live productive and prosperous lives, is, again, the most important thing I will ever do as mayor, and it's the most important thing my fellow council members will do as council members," Murray said during a Thursday press conference. For Rainier Beach High Students, Class In Session Along Fast-Changing Elwha River By Kyle Stokes • May 15, 2014 Kyle Stokes / KPLU Rainier Beach High School senior Puja Niroula hopes to study science in college. But she's still a bit squeamish when it comes to netting tiny bugs from a creek bed in Olympic National Forest. "I wonder if this is poisonous. Do you think so?" Niroula, 18, asked another student with more than a hint of trepidation as she picked larval mayflies from the net. Niroula and 25 other biology students from the south Seattle school are spending this week conducting experiments on a fast-changing ecosystem at the heart of one of the century's most significant environmental projects: the Elwha River. Pre-K Enrollment Down, Especially Low In Northwest By Chris Lehman • May 14, 2014 Seth Wenig / AP Photo The number of preschoolers enrolled in state-funded early childhood education programs is dropping nationally. A national study released Tuesday shows that Northwest states are holding steady in terms of overall enrollment but continue to rank near the bottom in some key areas. After Wash. Loses NCLB Waiver, Feds Show Leniency To Other States By Kyle Stokes • May 9, 2014 Ted S. Warren / AP Photo Washington may be the only state to lose control over millions in federal education funding over its failure to pass a new teacher evaluation system, at least in the near future. Less than a month after Washington state became the first state to lose its waiver from the No Child Left Behind Act, the feds are showing leniency to other states, according to a report by Education Week. Those states passed laws creating teacher evaluation systems that they're now struggling to implement. But state officials say that leniency will not extend as far as Washington, which failed to pass a similar law. How One Seattle School Will Use Millions In Turnaround Grant Money By Kyle Stokes • May 8, 2014 Kyle Stokes / KPLU The school day at Seattle's Rainier Beach High School is about to get longer and the curriculum, some staff say, is about to get a lot more rigorous. Rainier Beach is one of 13 Washington schools state officials selected Thursday to receive a share of a $24 million grant over the next three years — money federal officials earmarked for helping schools with some of the state's lowest test scores and graduation rates. If Feds Say All Schools Are 'Failing,' Which Wash. Schools Will Actually Get Help? By Kyle Stokes • May 6, 2014 Ted S. Warren / AP Photo If the state's recent loss of its waiver from the No Child Left Behind law means the feds will label almost every Washington school as "failing," which schools are actually struggling enough to receive formal help? Washington's top elected school official answered that question Tuesday, releasing lists of more than 280 struggling schools — more than twice as many as last year — that will receive $11 million worth of help in the form of state-aided planning and teacher training. Expelled Wash. Students Will Have To Meet With Teachers, Parents Before Returning To School By Kyle Stokes • May 2, 2014 Eric E Castro / Flickr Parents and teachers of a student who's been expelled from a Washington school will likely have to meet together before the student is allowed to attend classes again, according to new state rules up for public review Monday. "You would think it was happening before, but it absolutely wasn't happening before," said Linda Mangel, education policy director for the ACLU of Washington, who noted the new guideline comes as part of a change in state law. WSU, U-Idaho Under Investigation For Sex Assault Complaints By Jessica Robinson • May 2, 2014 Washington State University Washington State University and the University of Idaho are among the schools under investigation over their handling of sexual assault cases. McCleary Attorney: Wash. Lawmakers' School Funding Report 'A Bunch of Malarky' By Kyle Stokes • Apr 30, 2014 Ted S. Warren / AP File Photo A lawyer who argued a landmark education funding case before the Washington Supreme Court says state lawmakers are still dragging their feet in meeting the mandate justices set out: develop, by this week, a "complete plan" to pump billions of new dollars into the state's public schools.

Johannesburg - Banyana Banyana face Namibia in their second preparation match in Windhoek on Saturday before the African Women's Championships.
The friendly match at the Sam Nujoma Stadium comes after the 4-0 drubbing Banyana handed down to Botswana last month.
Coach Vera Pauw said the team needed such games in order to improve.
"Each match we play takes us one step closer to achieving our goal of building a strong competitive team," said Pauw on Thursday.
Pauw had little knowledge about the opposition, but said the experience of playing Namibia would be good for the team.
"Nambia is a team that is also improving under Jacqui Shipanga. The opportunity to play against them ahead of the Championships will give us an opportunity to know a bit about them, in case we have to play them during the tournament."
Banyana was preparing for the ninth African Women's Championships to be hosted in Namibia from October 11-25.

The first Modern Warfare shocked you about twice though out the story and I mean really shocked you. Once when the nuke goes off and at the end when they kill a lot of main characters in the blink of an eye.
MW2 tries to do it every 30 minutes or so. More often than not it falls short of the feeling you get from the original but a few times it did manage to bring that feeling back for me. Level Design and gameplay have changed very little which is both a good and bad thing. The formula was very strong to start with but annoyances like infinite respawn's of enemy's until you hit an invisible trigger are still noticeable at points.
I have always loved the series for its ability of tell story though the game its self rather than stopping for a cut-scene. Modern Warfare 2 tops the first in every way from that point of view. So far the multiplayer has sucked me in a lot more than the original and wile it's the same as the first in theory, Infinity Ward has packed a load of new weapons, perks and features into this latest edition.
The game has its disappointments like the infamous airport scene that ends in a way that just removes all guilt and meaning from the past ten minutes. Despite its flaws Modern Warfare 2 stands out the best Call of Duty to date.

Rios: I'm Not Scared of Broner, Would Love To Fight Him!
Former lightweight champion Brandon Rios (30-0-1, 22KOs), in his first interview since suffering an injury that forced him to withdraw from a scheduled June fight with Mauricio Herrera, discusses his progress, future plans - and some of the boxers who recently called him out.
ITR: Brandon thank you for taking the time to talk to us
BR: No problem, thank you for reaching out.
ITR: You injured your hand during training, how is the recovery going for you?
BR: It's going pretty good now. I'm still training with my coach Henry Castro. I am grateful to have coach Henry with me through my recovery. He has mentored me through this challenging time in my career. He has been instrumental in my personal life and professional career.
ITR: Have the doctors released you yet?
BR: No. they haven't but I expect to find out later this week after they do an MRI.
[Brandon has continued to train on his cardio 4 times per week with his strength and conditioning coach Henry Castro, owner of KO Studio].
ITR: What have you been doing during this off-time?
BR: During this off time, I have been spending much of this time staying in shape and spending quality time with my wife Vicky and children. Just recently I went home to Garden City, Kansas to visit my other two kids.
Note: Two weeks ago I personally visited the Rios family and Brandon was looking good, healthy, and slim but more than anything he looked like he was at peace with himself. In true Brandon fashion, he joked around and was playful with all the children present. He was like a little kid himself and brought many laughs and giggles to the faces of the children present.
ITR: Recently on Saturday Night Fights on HBO Adrien Broner called you out as one of the three boxers that he would like to face next. What do you say about that?
BR: I'm not scared of him and would love to fight him [Broner], but with the feud brewing between Golden Boy Promotions and Top Rank Promotions it is unlikely that this fight would even happen. Regardless at the end of the day, like I've said before, it's up to my manager, Cameron Dunkin.
ITR: You actively addressed this on twitter, why?
BR: I wanted to end all rumors that I was scared of him. I'm not scared of him or anyone else. I'm a fighter, that's what I do. I fight.
ITR: Many fans ask, what about Danny Garcia? Would you take that fight?
BR: Yeah, I'd take it. Why not? But again, unless the feud is squashed [between Top Rank and Golden Boy] none of these fights will happen.
ITR: When are you planning on getting back in the ring?
BR: Like I said, my doctor hasn't released me yet, but we're hoping he does this week or next week. If that happens, October or November is a possibility.
ITR: Do you plan on rescheduling with Herrera?
BR: Well I doubt it because last I read/heard; he is now injured himself in training too (laughs)
ITR: We know you are now moving up in weight class. Who do you want to fight at 140?
BR: Yes, I am. I want to fight the best at 140.
ITR: Any names you'd like to throw out there?
BR: No, not really. Just throw me the best you've got. I'll fight them.
ITR: Going back to your training, what type of training are you currently doing?
BR: I'm doing cardio mostly, light strength and conditioning, and just recently started hitting the mitts a little with Donald Leary. My doctor doesn't want me using my arm too much yet, as its still healing.
ITR: Where are you training?
BR: I do all this at the KO Studio in Westlake; KO Studio has just opened a second location to their KO Studio chain, in Agoura Hills. I'm proud to announce I support and have endorsed the new KO Studio Agoura, where I will continue with my Strength and Conditioning.
ITR: Is this a new gym for you?
BR: No, I've been doing my strength and conditioning training here in Westlake for about a year and a half; it's an advanced training studio. I really like it here. Coach Henry is having an open house in October for the new KO Studion Agoura; he's going to have boxing legend Sugar Shane Mosley, Mickey Garcia, myself, as well as actor Enrique Castillo from Blood In Blood Out and many more, stay tuned. "It's going to be pretty bad ass."
ITR: Speaking of bad ass, what is your prediction on the Julio César Chávez Jr. vs. Martinez fight coming up in September?
BR: I think that it's going to be a pretty cool fight. I think Julio César Chávez Jr. is going to take the win. He's been improving a lot lately but, Martinez is a good fighter too. It's going to be a good ass fight. The advantage that Julio César Chávez Jr. has is that he is a bigger fighter.
ITR: Where will you be watching the fight?
BR: I'm hoping that my wife and I can make it to Vegas that weekend but, it's hard planning when you have a newborn. We are still talking about it.
ITR: Speaking of children, can you tell us something about your personal/family life?
BR: My wife and kids have brought a lot of happiness to my life. My wife has been my biggest cheerleader. I'm just really grateful for my in-laws, they have all been there for me and my family as well as and Donald Leary and his wife Teresa who always help us with both of our kids.
"I'm in a good place right now."
ITR: Thank you for the interview, are there any last words you'd like to share before we conclude this interview?
BR: We just launched the new line of Bam Bam gear on my website. Go check it out!
Also, I'd like to send a big THANK YOU to all my TEAM RIOS who work very hard behind the scenes: Vicky Rios (my rock and who oversees everything) George Hernandez (website), Hector De La Cruz (Graphic Design), Nancy Rodriguez (PR), Robert Garcia (trainer), Henry Castro (coach) Ernie Gabion (boxing gear) Alicia Magana (Sponsorships).
To all my fans: Thank you for your support and blessings, I will continue to work hard and give you all the fights that you deserve to watch. I will come back stronger than ever! Stay tuned!
To all my haters, keep hating… Your hate is the fuel to my fire.

Nothing says goodbye like a bullet (as the tagline goes). And no one knows this better than Philip Marlowe. This particular incarnation of the famed '30s detective is Elliott Gould, and he's now solving crime - and very out of place - in the free-spirited '70s. Directed by the great Robert Altman, this is a wonderful adaptation of Raymond Chandler's novel, although much like the 1946 version of The Big Sleep, this retelling is fairly convoluted. Gould captures Marlowe's world-weariness and casual coolness perfectly, and Sterling Hayden is pretty much playing himself.
There are only two movies I own physically, and this is one of them. I don't often admit that one of my favorite movies ever has a plot that focuses on robots vs. aliens, but at the root of it, Pacific Rim is a story about humanity's struggle to exist against an ever increasing tide of the most amazing aliens you'll ever see on film. The illuminated pseudoscience behind Jaeger Technology (the robots) operated by drift compatible humans is something to be enjoyed, not dissected!
What happens when a wacky nouveau riche family decides to take in a homeless man to be their butler? When that "forgotten" man turns out to be debonair William Powell, he may just teach this spoiled and snobby family a thing or two. He also turns out to be a savior of sorts - and a potential love interest to a few ladies in the household. This film, made in 1936 during the height of the Depression, doesn't beat the viewer over the head with too many platitudes, but it does offer several laugh out loud moments.
A fictionalized portrait of French novelist Violette LeDuc, directed and co-written by Martin Provost. Illegitimate and unwanted by her mother, Violette grows into an intensely needy adult who looks for love in all the wrong places. Her tremendous talent for writing is recognized and nurtured by Simone de Beauvoir, with whom Violette falls in love (albeit unrequited). Violette funnels her self-loathing and pain into her confessional novels, which are groundbreaking works of raw emotion and taboo sexual depictions.
Tall tales told by his father have frustrated Will since he was a boy. So much so that he's barely spoken to his father in years, but when his father falls ill of course he goes home to help out. It all sounds like a maudlin drama about family but once Will's father, Ed, starts telling his stories from his hospital bed the movie opens wide, taking Will back through the adventures his father claims to have had. He met mermaids and giants and witches! He found mysterious hidden towns and accidentally robbed banks! He performed in the circus and saw werewolves!
What starts out as a ballroom dancing mockumentary soon becomes something more once the dancing actually starts. You know right from the beginning that this movie is going to feature some over-the-top hair and hysterics, thanks to main character Scott's mother crying into the camera, wondering just where she possibly went wrong! Scott, you see, is an up-and-coming star in the Australian ballroom dancing world, but he's bored with the same old dance steps and his partner just can't abide by his experimentation! If he doesn't follow the rules how will they win the Pan-Pacific Grand Prix?
Written, directed, and starring Chris Rock, this is a genuinely funny film. Chris plays a comedian who acheived fame with several very stupid movies but is trying to break out and do a serious film about the Haitain revolution, while also preparing to get married to a reality television star. A reporter (Rosario Dawson) is tagging along and pines for his long-past days of stand-up. To say more would give too much away - and this is more than a funny movie. It is also satire and love story, all set in one incredibly long day in New York City.
The critically acclaimed series came to its final, inevitably bloody conclusion this past December. Whether you were captivated from the start, hopped on part-way along the ride, or still haven't ventured into this drama, every season is now available to watch on DVD, along with deleted scenese, gag reels, and more.
Mistaken identities, mob bosses at war, bookies, assassins and righteous vengeance make up this 2006 thriller. Except thriller doesn't really do the job of describing this movie. Sure, it has all the hallmarks: a years-old murder case over a bet gone wrong and a young man caught in the middle of two crime bosses' bitter grudge. But Slevin Kelevra, who arrived in town to find his buddy Nick missing and mobsters - believing that Slevin is Nick - seems fairly upbeat about the whole situation.
Bob is working at his cousin Marv's bar in a gritty part of Brooklyn, and you quickly realize tell they both have a shady past. The bar is one of many in the city used as a drop for dirty money and it turns out the bar itself is owned by a menacing Chechen gang leader. A couple of small-time thugs rob the bar, Bob finds an abused puppy in a trash can and meets a girl named Nadia, and a random crime turns out not to be so random.

IBM's $1 billion information management initiative, announced Thursday, is getting an early acid test New York's Rockland County, where Big Blue's technology is being used in a pilot program aimed at busting Medicaid fraud.
"In Rockland County, we spend $1 million a day [on Medicaid]," Rockland County Executive Scott Vanderhoef said, adding that 49 percent of pharmacy claims are questionable and 19 percent of all Medicaid claims have some sign they are inaccurate or fraudulent. Based on those figures, he said if even half of the questionable claims in his state were identified as false, New York State could save as much as $4.5 billion a year.
IBM's information-on-demand software products, which federate, sort and analyze numeric, textual, video, special and other data, help government workers identify irregularities that require further investigation.
"We should have done it so long ago, but the software wasn't there," Vanderhoef said. "I think this is one of the things that may change the Medicaid process, get everybody on their best behavior and end up saving the taxpayers money."
With the pilot program it's going to be more difficult for someone to charge prescription drugs to an account of someone who had Medicaid but has been dead for awhile, he said. It will also be obvious when an internist claims to have seen 9,000 people in one day, he said.
The state has been investigating and prosecuting fraud in the government-paid health insurance programs for indigents, but Vanderhoef said the pilot program will help prevent payments for bogus claims so the state doesn't have to try to recoup them after the fact.
The same techniques and software are being applied to law enforcement in New York City, said Steve Mills, senior vice president and group executive for the IBM software group.
Mills gave an example in which a crime victim recalled only that a perpetrator had a tattoo of the Grim Reaper and that someone uttered the nickname "Shorty." With federated data from summons, arrests, parolee information and more, IBM's software can sift through millions of pieces of information, including addresses and aliases in real time to help police arrest the perpetrator more quickly than they would have done otherwise.
The software and services are being applied to shipping, finance and a host of other industries and will likely be expanded in the future, if Mills was correct when he said that information management represents a $69 billion opportunity with a 18 percent compound annual growth rate by 2009.
Mills said that globalization, mergers, acquisition and regulatory compliance are among the factors converging to drive demand for new insight and technologies to compete and to cope with information overload.

Unless children can get to school on time and safely, the world's best teachers can't help dig South Carolina out of its educational slough.
And unless the House-passed budget's allocation for new school buses grows a lot, it will be increasingly difficult for students to do just that.
Why? Because the oldest and most polluting school bus fleet in the country will continue to break down more, frequently require more maintenance, use more gas and fail more often to get children to school on schedule.
But the real cost of using buses that are too old even to be under warranty is the risk of a serious accident in which children are injured or killed.
State Superintendent of Education Mick Zais has demonstrated that he is fiscally conservative. Last year he didn't even ask for an increase in his department's budget.
This year, he says he needs $46 million for new school buses — $34 million from the state's capital reserve fund and $12 million from unclaimed lottery prize money to replace old, unreliable buses.
Instead, the House budget includes only $10.5 million from the capital reserve fund and not one dime in unclaimed lottery prize money.
Besides being woefully inadequate ($1.7 million less than last year), the allocation would be non-recurring revenue, meaning it would not be guaranteed in subsequent budget years.
And it fails to meet the General Assembly's own mandate that a portion of unclaimed lottery prize money be used for school bus purchases.
A 2007 state law also requires the fleet to be replaced every 15 years. It was enacted after The Post and Courier reported on the sorry state of South Carolina's school bus fleet.
Dr. Zais' budget request would begin the replacement cycle established by the Legislature — and then ignored. School buses should not be shorted as if they are somehow not essential.
Earlier this year, the state received 342 new buses to be distributed statewide. They are to replace some that are 28 years old, and they were paid for ($24.6 million) mostly by lottery funds and unclaimed lottery prizes. It was the first time since 2006 that unclaimed lottery money was applied to school bus purchases.
We shouldn't expect help from the governor. Her budget includes no money for school buses. Last year, she vetoed the $12 million school bus allocation. Instead, she advocates transferring responsibility for buses to individual school districts.
The experience of threatened bus driver strikes in Charleston, Beaufort and Dorchester counties suggests that might not be the best model. In contrast, public employees could not legally go on strike.
Older buses can have safety problems and are prone to catching fire. Some have holes in the floor which can allow exhaust fumes to waft in and be inhaled by children. Most lack standard safety features and equipment found on new buses to transport students with disabilities.
The Legislature is ignoring its responsibility by failing to replace school buses on a regular cycle and by failing to provide lottery money on a regular basis for that purpose.
Worse, lawmakers are failing the state by playing fast and loose with students' safety.

Get the look you love with this Ombre Dyed Tee Shirt Tote Bag from Savannah Starr. Made from an old tee shirt, this t-shirt tote bag pattern is a great project to make for a craft night or a girl scout meeting. Personalize it to be any colors you'd like!
- T-shirt
- Scissors
- Gloves
- Bucket
- Liquid die
- Salt
- Peel and stick tape
Take a pair of scissors and cut the neck of the shirt into a V shape.
Cut off both sleeves and a little bit past the sleeves for bigger straps.
Fill the bucket with hot water.
Take a small plastic bag and rubber bands and place over the part of the shirt that you do not want to get the dye on ( for the ombre affect).
Use gloves before dying the shirt.
Take 1 cup of salt and pour into bucket.
Take your dye and pour half of the bottle into the bucket.
Stir until mixed well.
Take the shirt and dip it into the bucket of dye up to the plastic bag.
Let it sit in the dye for 15 minutes.
Take a section of the shirt and pull it out of the dye, leaving 8"to 10" of the bottom of the shirt still in the bucket of dye.
Pour the rest of the dye into the bucket.
Stir until mixed well.
Let it sit in the dye for 15 minutes.
Rinse the shirt and hang to dry over night.
Take the shirt and turn it inside out.
Apply the peel and stick tape and place at the bottom hem of the shirt.
Take another piece and place it right above fist strip.
Peel off the paper backing to reveal sticky side.
Start at the corner of the t-shirt and place the top edge onto the bottom.
Smooth it out.
- Turn the shirt inside out.

Fighters you suspect of throwing fights or Fights u think were rigged

lol there was just a report the yesterday that someone placed a 6 figure bet on Colton smith at the Hard rock hotel Casino just Prior to the fight .. I am not accusing Mike Ricci of throwing the fight or anything all I am saying with the amount of $ some of these guys are getting payed It`s insane to not think some of these fighters have thrown fights .. some of them might even throw fights so well that u would not even suspect it .. u just never know haha
as for fights being fixed .. Rich Franklin took some of wander silvas best shots and did not get TKO`D or KO`d .. ur gonna tell me a very undersized 40 year old injured Cung Le KO`D Rich Franklin ?! not saying it`s not possible but it`s just very improbable .. again I could be wrong and he really did get KO`D but I highly suspect that fight was fixed but only Rich Frankling was payed to throw the fight .. Cung Le had no knowledge about it .
as for Anderson Silva`s fight .. ur gonna tell me Chael sonnen dominates the 1s fight from the start to the 5th round and gets submitted with a minute or so left .. and in the 2nd fight he dominates the 1st round again and does a stupid spinning backfist in the 2nd round and goes and gets knee`d then gets back up momentarly and anderson throws a punch that MISSED and he goes down like a sack of shit like he was just hit by a fking truck lol
same with his fight with Stephan Bonnar .. he was LOSING until he Knee`d him in the chest and stephan bonnar COVERS HIS FACE ?! and goes down with no will to fight back or no care in the world to win .
Donald Cerrone vs Nate Diaz .. Cerrone just stands there like a scarecrow eating his jabs with no head movement whatsoever .. and every time he lands a kick on diaz he drops him like a sack of shit but he does not bother to follow up on it or even continue kicking .. never have I seen Donald cerrone fight like that of ALL the fights I`ve seen of him ..
again I am not saying any of these fights were rigged or any of these fighters threw the fights .. I highly suspect they were though .
look at Dave Herman vs Big nog in brazil .. this moron just sticks his hand out like an idiot and does nothing the entire fight and had a big goofy smile on his face in between rounds .. another fight I suspect of being fixed
