Mercedes-Benz has redesigned its CLK-Class coupe. At a glance, the new models appearance isnt much different from that of its predecessor, which came to the United States in 1998. B-pillars are absent in the 2003 version, which went on sale in August 2002. The CLK-Class Cabriolet (convertible) is continuing in its prior form for the time being.
The CLK-Class coupe is more upright than before; it is 1.5 inches taller, 2.7 inches longer overall and rides on a wheelbase thats an inch longer. Its also heavier and more spacious, with an inch more headroom and knee room. Up front, the Mercedes-Benz three-pointed star has moved from the hood to the grille, which is lower and wider than before. Optional equipment includes bi-xenon headlights, distronic cruise control, keyless ignition and a Parktronic system that detects obstacles at the rear while backing up. Despite the pillarless coupe body, the automaker says torsional stiffness is 40 percent greater than before.
All CLK-Class coupes have a five-speed adaptive automatic transmission with Touch Shift. Four engines are available: a 3.2-liter V-6 in the CLK320, a 4.3-liter V-8 in the CLK430 Cabriolet and a 5.0-liter V-8 in the CLK500, which is borrowed from the larger CL500. Early in 2003, a high-performance CLK55 AMG coupe arrived with a 362-horsepower V-8. The previous generation included a CLK55 AMG coupe and convertible, whose V-8 produced 342 hp. Eight airbags are installed in the new coupes.
Mercedes-Benz says the new pillarless CLK-Class coupe design was inspired by the premium-luxury CL-Class coupe. The rear windows retract fully to create an open, airy feeling. A new version of the traditional Mercedes coupe and roadster front-end design positions the three-pointed star at the center of a low, wide grille. What appear to be four headlights are actually twin ellipses, which form a single unit on each side of the car. The CLK320 grille uses atlas gray vanes, while high-gloss black vanes with chrome highlights identify the CLK500. Each model also has a distinct front valance panel. The CLK320 has green-tinted glass, and the CLK500 gets blue-tinted glass.
In addition to a larger engine, the CLK500 coupe gets an AMG wheel and body design package, along with bigger brakes. An optional CLK320 Appearance Package adds bigger, lower-profile tires and a larger chrome exhaust. Seven-spoke wheels on the CLK320 coupe hold 16-inch tires, but the CLK500 coupe gets 17-inch rubber. The tires are wider and lower-profiled at the rear.
Both the new CLK-Class coupe and the carryover Cabriolet are built to provide ample interior space for four occupants on leather-upholstered seats. Mercedes-Benz says the new coupe has more rear headroom, elbowroom, hip space and knee room than its predecessor. The split, folding rear seat now folds totally flat. Vertical LCD bar graphs are used for the fuel and coolant-temperature gauges.
The CLK320s Appearance option group includes a sport gearshift knob, aluminum trim (instead of burl walnut) and rubber-studded aluminum pedal trim. For the CLK500, aluminum trim is part of an optional two-tone leather package.
All CLK-Class models have a Tele Aid emergency assistance system with such features as airbag-deployment notification, remote door unlocking, alarm notification and remote diagnostics. Tele Aid can summon emergency help by using cellular and satellite-based technology that provides a direct link to the companys roadside assistance program.
Standard equipment includes automatic dual-zone air conditioning with a sun sensor, 10-way power front seats and rain-sensing windshield wipers. A new premium music system uses eight speakers and digital processing to compensate for ambient noise.
Under the Hood
Four CLK-Class engines are available this year. A 215-hp, 3.2-liter V-6 goes into the new CLK320 coupe and carryover CLK320 Cabriolet, while a 302-hp, 5.0-liter V-8 powers the CLK500 coupe. Last years 275-hp, 4.3-liter V-8 goes into the carryover CLK320 and CLK430 Cabriolet. The CLK55 AMG comes with a 5.5-liter V-8 that generates 362 hp.
All CLK models have a five-speed-automatic transmission that makes use of Touch Shift for manually controlled gear changes by tipping the gearshift lever to the left or right.
Dual front airbags, four side-impact airbags and two full-length side curtain-type airbags are standard. Traction control, antilock brakes, Mercedes Electronic Stability Program, Brake Assist and a BabySmart recognition system are also standard.

HUDSON, Mass. — Hudson Public Schools students returning from break on Thursday may notice a different name on the sides of their school buses.
With the shutdown of Atlantic Express, Hudson Public Schools contracted with North Reading Transportation (NRT) to provide school bus service for the rest of the school year.
"Under emergency provisions of the state bid law, the district is able to sign a contract with the company that was the second-lowest bidder when the district went out to bid three years ago. That company is NRT," Hudson Superintendent Kevin Lyons said in a letter to parents.
Starting on Thursday, NRT took over the routes and services that Atlantic Express was providing. Lyons told parents that the bus fleet and the local contractor management team would change, while their child's driver may or may not be the same person.
"We are working hard to help ensure the smoothest of transitions, but there are likely to be some problems that will have to be worked out," Lyons said. "This is not an ideal situation, to change contractors part way through the school year."
In the spring, Hudson Public Schools will bid out its transportation contract for the 2014-15 school year and beyond.

Black Oakdale Shoe Bench

Comments about Black Oakdale Shoe Bench:
We didn't have any trouble at all with the assembly of this bench like a previous customer posted! The drawers are really nice for storing things like scarves, gloves, hats, and socks that you might want to have handy by the door as you are sitting on the bench and putting your shoes on (or taking off). It would be nicer if the shoe cubbies were a bit larger so you could store large shoes or boots inside.

HOW DOES a mob-connected fraudster - who allegedly kept deer blood at his South Philly auto-body shop to stage fake "Hollywood" accidents - land a $1.8 million city contract to fix cop cars and other vehicles?
This is Philadelphia. He knew a guy.
"We are here today to announce the arrest - once again - of Ron Galati Sr. and his co-conspirators for a nearly $5 million insurance-fraud scheme," District Attorney Seth Williams said yesterday, before delving into the latest round of charges against Galati.
Galati, 63, an auto mechanic with ties to mobsters including Joey Merlino and Joseph Ligambi, was already being held without bail for allegedly masterminding a triple-murder-for-hire plot that targeted his daughter's boyfriend, a body-shop operator who he believed had testified against him and the operator's son.

How the processes are given CPU time, when they are pre-empted, can we and why do we migrate processes between different scheduler queues? I've already found Ulf Wiger's explanation in the mailing list archive: http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2001-April/003131.html Nevertheless, this email is 9 years old so probably a lot of things changed (e.g. better SMP support).

A celebration of all mothers
Today is the day during which we honor the ones who gave us life, our mothers. Mother's Day is celebrated on the first Sunday in May annually, and is a time for family gatherings.
As said in the Bible in Proverbs 31:28-29 "Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband praises her. Many daughters have done virtuously, but you excel them all.. She will be rewarded with the fruit of her own hands; and because of her works and deed she will be praised in public places."
The celebration of motherhood dates back to the ancient Greeks, who honored their mothers during a spring festival.
Mothering Sunday, which began in England during the 17th century, was a precursor to the current Mother's day celebration we hold today. The name evolved from the custom of baking a special cake, called a mothering cake, to take on visits to mother. Today in England, this traditional day is celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent.
This holiday in England featured the reunification of mothers and their children who were separated with working class families had to send off their young children to be employed as house servants.
In America, the person responsible for this day of honor for mothers is Julia Ward Howe, who also wrote the Battle Hymn of the Republic. Howe saw Mother's Day as a day dedicated to peace after having lived through the horrors of the United States' Civil War in 1872.
More than 83 million mothers are living today in the United States, and two billion worldwide. As President Gerald Ford wrote many years ago, "there is no undertaking more challenging, no responsibility more awesome, than that of being a mother."

The Sunday Times Cartoon and the Midrash
One aspect of that Scarfe cartoon from Sunday, which has so far, I think, escaped comment.
As my good friend, Rabbi Ephraim Buchwald, had written, the Passover festival has a special focus, a
…frequent emphasis on children, especially at the Passover seder…the Bible and the Midrash emphasize that the Egyptians singled out the Jewish children for persecution. Pharaoh instructs the midwives to kill all male children.
The Midrash says that Pharaoh, a leper, bathed in the blood of Jewish children, had the Jewish children burned in Egyptian furnaces, and, if the Hebrew slaves failed to produce their quota of bricks, Jewish children were plastered into the walls to fill the gaps.
The Egyptian strategy was to disrupt Jewish family life and prevent the birth of Jewish children. And, even when Pharaoh (Exodus 10:10) finally agreed to allow the Israelites to worship for three days, he would not allow the children to accompany the adults.
That Jews could be portrayed as placing Arabs, adults and children, into a wall being built when that wall is intended to bring Jews security from Arab terrorism, especially suicide-bombers who destroy themselves in their hatred, is to be so upside-down and backwards a reality that it boggles the minds of all humanists, of which the caricaturist is not. Nor his editor.

A 1 million-gallon water reservoir on Karen Street needs about $500,000 in repairs after an inspection turned up a number of issues with the structure's foundation, interior coating and roof.
Soldotna's City Council approved an ordinance moving shifting the funds into the city's utility system capital improvements fund during its Tuesday meeting, after the most recent inspection of the 18-year-old tank.
Public hearings on three ordinances in Soldotna should help the city plan its policy on commercial marijuana usage within city limits.
Soldotna Mayor Pete Sprague introduced an ordinance establishing the city as a local regulatory authority; member Regina Daniels proposed a moratorium on commercial marijuana sales within city limits and Keith Baxter proposed regulating commercial marijuana by limiting the number of retail outlets in the city and putting restrictions on cultivation and manufacturing.
By a vote of 4-1 the Soldotna City Council elected Timothy Cashman Jr., to a vacant council seat.
Cashman Jr. beat applicant Dan Nelson for appointment to council seat F during Tuesday's council meeting. The seat was vacated by newly-elected mayor Pete Sprague.
Cashman's term will end on Oct. 16, 2016.
Reach Rashah McChesney at email@example.com
Two Soldotna men have applied to take over the last year remaining on the term for Seat F on the city's council.
New mayor Pete Sprague resigned from the seat when he was elected in October.
The council will consider Dan Nelson and Tim Cashman, Jr., applications during its Tuesday Nov. 10 meeting.
Nelson, a Planning and Zoning commission member is a borough employee. Cashman is a small business owner who also deals in the residential rental market. Both have lived and worked in Soldotna for more than two decades.
At the top of Soldotna's major capital project's list is a $950,000 request to assist the city with repair, rehab and construction of its city streets and utilities.
Soldotna City Council members got their first look at the list on during Wednesday's council meeting.
The repair and rehabilitation project is at the top of the list, but it is not the most expensive request the city will make. Also on the list is a $2.1 million dollar request for funding to build a new maintenance shop and another $1.6 million request to extend water and sewer down Centennial Park Road.
In the timeline to scope, plan and build the Alaska LNG project, it's early in the process. But Nikiski residents who testified during a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission hearing on Tuesday spoke of increasing industrial activity, conflicting messages from project managers, and rumors running rampant through a community that stands to be dramatically altered by the $45-$65 billion project designed to carry North Slope gas to Nikiski.
On Monday, officials with the state's Division of Juvenile Justice said two boys had escaped from the McLaughlin Youth Center in Anchorage and that the event, while rare, would typically elicit a response from law enforcement.
Weather-worn hands that bait hooks, untangle nets, grip wet metal and haul salmon onto boats instead plucked guitar strings, traced invisible shapes through the air and adjusted glasses to read from sheaves of notes as commercial fishermen turned artists entertained a crowd at Kenai Peninsula College, Kenai River Campus.
People and organizations who depend on the Kenai Peninsula Food Bank will see a bump in the amount and variety of food available in the coming months as the food bank spends a $10,000 grant award from the Alaska Community Foundation.
The new grant, announced on Thursday, is in its inaugural year of funding and while organizers are unsure if it will be available for a second year, the $164,000 spread statewide is designed to meet Alaskans' fundamental needs in this year.
There are no townhouses in Soldotna. However, they may be added to the mix of housing options soon as Soldotna city employees have recommended changes to the city's zoning codes which would make them friendlier to potential townhome and condominium developers.
The changes were introduced to the Soldotna City Council and a public hearing will be held on Oct. 28 as the city revamps what City Planner John Czarnezki called an "antiquated and confusing," code.

From the Opalesque team:
For hedge funds, Japan's institutional investors are a promising asset-raising target looming on the horizon. US-based marketing firm FletcherBennet recently expressed this opinion with the hire of Somer Hatano, who will focus solely on relations with Japan institutions for the firm's hedge fund roster. FletcherBennet's management is not alone in this opinion, Blackstone's Stephen Schwarzmann recently noted during the firm's year-end reporting call that Japan investors were focused mainly on hedge fund investing right now.
In the most recent Opalesque Roundtable (Japan), we learned from the managers based in that country that it is indeed the case that hedge funds will find opportunities with this investor base. Some of the largest institutional investors in Japan are in the position where they have a real need to chase higher performance, and are expected to do so by increasing their market exposures through alternatives vehicles, including hedge funds.
"Quite simply, Japanese pension funds will not produce enough returns to meet their future liabilities with their current asset mix. This will indicate that they will have to make greater allocations to alternatives in the near future," said Rory Kennedy, COO for......................

There is just so much to enjoy.

I know Yahoo has been dominated by Google for a long time now. However, people seem to think just because a Google has had a "dominating" position on Yahoo that Yahoo is finished with everything. While this clearly isn't true, you must understand that people still use Yahoo to search online, Yahoo has not stopped advertising, collaborating with other major sites like Associated Content. Therefore you can still monetize your sites onto Yahoo and get the most out of your content and link building on this site and Google at the same time. Why not gain exposure on both major search engines? There are three types of techniques that you can use to get high exposure on Yahoo. These are effective keyword research, article writing and link building.
Effective keyword research on Yahoo is probably the most important part of your campaign. You can go to sources like overture keyword tool. This is a source where you can effectively gain a perspective on what is happening within a particular group of keywords that you are looking for in your industry, although you don't want to solely rely on this resource because of the inaccuracy of the actual monthly results as well as the competitive sites on the keyword.
The other technique that can be useful for yahoo is the same technique that you can use for the bing search engine as well as the Google search engine. Google is really known for this particular technique however. This strategy is the quotation method. When you type in a keyword in quotations you will see all the sites using that exact keyword or key phrase. This is what is considered your "competition." There may be a lot of competitors in your search but the other sites could also just be blogs and forums as well. The theory is the more sites the less likely it is for you to rank high in this keyword. The least amount of sites in a particular keyword means that you can get relatively high in the search engines. However, this also can be very inaccurate at times because some keywords may look like it has less than 1,000 sites on it, but if you try the next day, you might see hundreds of thousands sites. So you may not want to be narrow minded about this particular strategy. Think of it as a quick overview.
Article marketing is another way to get your site optimized. However, when you are writing content you cannot just write anything or just cram keywords into the article. You have to know how to put the keywords into the body of your article as well as your headline very effectively. One way that you can do this is creating sentences out of your keywords. Take your key phrases and see if you can rearrange the wording and see if you can intertwine the other keywords into a something that makes sense. This way you can have as many of your keywords added into the body and it makes sense at the same time. This is why you have to take the time and proof read your articles as well as write your articles methodically and not lazily. It's not that hard. Don't believe all of these article writing "experts" who tell you that you have to hire someone to write them and you have to do all of this fancy stuff that they don't call fancy, making things a little over engineered for you to understand. All you have to do is choose your key words and create sentences into the keywords to help the keywords make sense as you are writing your article

Dr Shaheen has been my doctor ever since I graduated from college, she is a brilliant physician with excellent bedside manner who takes time to get to know her patients and is always honest with you about what you need to do for your health. She will stop at nothing to find the right diagnosis and proper treatment. I am grateful to God that he put her in my life to care for me especially when I was really sick. She cared for me as if I was her own child. I wouldn't want my healthcare in anyone else's hands. I have the utmost respect and confidence in Dr. Shaheen as my doctor. She will give you the best care possible.
Dr. Shaheen has been my husband's and my doctor for many years. She is very personable and attentive on top of her extreme competence in medicine. If/when necessary, she makes the opportunity to see us when she is booked. That's personal care!!!
I have no dislikes about Amy..she is a wonderful,caring and very concern about her patients person..she is my husband Doctor,I wish she were my doctor because its hard to find a really good doctor...

This review is from: MSI Z77A-G41 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
Pros: The board is definitely durable to still work(except for USB 3.0) after catching fire.
Cons: Extreme fire hazard (described in other thoughts)
USB 3.0 stopped working due to fire
Other Thoughts: Earlier this year(in may) I bought this board along with all new parts. The board worked great until August when it caught fire. The computer was off and I had just turned it on when smoke billowed out of all of the fans. I quickly turned it back off and found that the fire started next to the USB 3.0 component on the board. The fire also melted my ram just from proximity.
The RMA process wasn't that bad, although they made me send them a picture of the damage before even sending it in.
Once I got the new board(almost a month later), it again worked great for about 2 months and then caught fire under the same conditions. This time the board (and every other component) is miraculously still functional, except all of the USB 3.0 ports do not work due to fire damage.
I'm still using the board (Which I guess speaks to its durability) although I can't leave it alone while it's on for fear of spontaneous combustion, which is insane.
Luckily Christmas is just around the corner and my girlfriend may buy me a new board so I can feel safe again. I will definitely not buy another MSI, though. Probably ASUS this time.
This review is from: MSI Z77A-G41 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
Pros: The board seems to work well despite being scortched.
Cons: I bought this board back in may with all new parts to build a new machine. In August the board caught fire around the USB 3.0 and burned up my ram. There was nothing plugged into the USB 3.0 ports and the fire started as I was turning on the computer, so it wasn't from being overheated.
The computer was rendered unusable. The MSI RMA process wasn't too hard, although I did have to take a picture of the origin of the fire before they replaced it.
I got my new board around September and in November I turned on my computer and started smelling burning. I quickly turned it off and found that the same components on the board were burnt and none of my USB 3.0 ports worked (however the computer still runs)
Other Thoughts: I've always been a fan of MSI and I've purchased a lot of MSI products but this is insane and I can't leave my powered on computer alone for fear of spontaneous combustion. Luckily Christmas is just around the corner and my girlfriend may buy me a new DIFFERENT board. I'm asking for ASUS though, I'm not using another MSI board.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: NZXT Phantom PHAN-002OR Newegg Exclusive Black Finish w/Orange Trim Steel / Plastic Enthusiast ATX Full Tower Computer Case
Pros: This case is beautiful. The fans are numerous and quiet. I love the fan controls too. When I first set it all up, my fan LEDs didn't come on, so I assumed the fan LEDs were just fan control LEDs, but eventually (for no reason whatsoever) the fan LEDs started working when I powered it on one day. I love them too.
The case is extremely easy to take apart and seems really sturdy.
Cons: It's definitely a full size caseREAD FULL REVIEW

Is Jeb Bush's Education Group Helping Write Laws That Benefit Its Corporate Funders?
After he left the governor's office in 2008, Jeb Bush set up an education nonprofit group, and last week, The Nation charged that Bush "could be using his education reform crusade for personal gain."
• "FEE staff sought legislation that would count the state test, known as FCAT, as more than 50% of the state's school accountability measure... Pearson, the company that holds the $250 million FCAT contract, sponsors FEE through its foundation."
• A FEE staffer advised that a legislative bill should give "authority to set a state‐approved list of charter operators or private providers." At least one FEE donor, the for-profit Florida-based Charter Schools USA, could benefit from being placed on such a state-approved list.
• Another FEE staffer stated that a goal was to pass a "parent trigger" law. Such a law (which failed to pass during Florida's last legislative session) is a mechanism that lets parents override administrators and convert neighborhood schools to charter schools. As the Post noted, Charter Schools USA could also benefit from such a law.
The most explosive charge to emerge has been that Jeb has a personal investment in one of the companies FEE pushed on state officials. As described by The Nation:
In one e-mail from last year, Bush's top aide at his foundation, Patricia Levesque, communicated with school officials to urge them to use a company called SendHub, a start-up that uses cloud computing and text messages. Bush, according to TechCrunch, has a modest "five-figure" investment in SendHub. Garrett Johnson, the founder of SendHub, previously worked for Bush and still serves on the board of Foundation for Florida's Future, another Bush-run education nonprofit.
In response to a Tampa Bay Times report on the dispute, Jeb's group argued that:
The majority of Excel in Ed's operational expenses, including salaries, are funded by private foundations, non-profits and philanthropies which do not sell to the K-12 market. We do accept sponsorships from corporations to help fund our annual Excellence in Action National Summit on Education Reform, in the same manner that unions and other organizations accept the same kind of sponsorships from companies.
The notion that Gov. Jeb Bush, who has spent the past 20 years as a passionate advocate for education reform, is profiting from this involvement is beyond ridiculous. He has devoted thousands of hours to this cause without compensation.
USF education prof Sherman Dorn, wrote:
If the charter for the foundation is consistent with indirectly advancing the interests of one or more industries, and none of the specific activities violate federal law involving non-profits, then the worst one can say is that the foundation is operating on the marginal side of ethics (and possibly not that, depending on the range of non-profit activities).
Dorn described the affair as "casual back-scratching of people in the same circle."
Mighty charmed circle, we'd add. Them what has, gets -- and then they take tax exemptions on donations to groups that work to see that they keep on getting.

CORRESPONDENT | February 12,2014ERIC FRANCIS PHOTO
Dana Wescott pleads innocent in White River Junction criminal court to a charge of escape.WHITE RIVER JUNCTION A furloughed burglar who allegedly fled Vermont last summer after receiving a settlement check from an insurance company was extradited from Maine to face an escape charge.
A warrant for the arrest of Dana Wescott, 30, had been issued in August, when police said he received a $10,000 check in the mail, gathered up a few belongings from his home in Stockbridge and left Vermont.
Wescott pleaded innocent Monday in White River Junction criminal court to a felony charge of escape, which carries a potential five-year sentence.
He was returned to jail to resume serving his previous sentence of 2½ to 15 years for burglary, possession of stolen property and drunk driving, second offense. He had been serving that term on furlough when he allegedly escaped.
Probation Supervisor David Fitts said Monday that Wescott went to his home town of Biddeford, Maine, where he was spotted by people who knew him. A large tattoo of a prehistoric fish on his neck helped to identify him, Fitts said, and he was arrested during a sting by the Maine Drug Task Force.
Wescott finished serving a five-month sentence in Maine for drug possession, then was extradited to Vermont where he was classified as an escaped prisoner.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER After sitting on the Vermont Supreme Court for nearly 30 years, Justice John Dooley...

Human lives are mostly driven by emotions and impressions. Politics, marketers and PR-specialists, for example make a living from ruling emotions and opinions.

The grit in her voice suggests two decades of hard traveling; the still sexy smile does not. "I didn't really have any bad times," says Tina Turner of her recent past. "It looked like bad times from the orthodox way of thinking, but the times without a record have been great for me."
Some people's great times would fell an ox. In 1976, after nearly 16 years of an often violent union, Tina finally left husband Ike Turner to try her luck, and life, as a solo. She found herself not free at last but with hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt resulting from the duo's broken concert dates. For the next eight years the fiery presence of A Fool in Love, Proud Mary and River Deep, Mountain High paid off those debts. Tina sang a glitzy act in Vegas. She sang at suburban supper clubs. She sang at McDonald's sales conventions. Some great time.
But all that ended this year. In 1984 Tina Turner put her new album, Private Dancer, on the charts for 29 weeks (and holding); placed two singles (What's Love Got to Do With It and Better Be Good to Me) in the Top Five; toured with Lionel Richie; graced a track on David Bowie's new album with her sandpaper-and-blasting-powder vocals; and made three videos that had new fans asking the same questions about the 46-year-old bachelor lady that an older generation did about the 23-year-old bride: Where does she get that energy? And just what percentage of her 5'4" is leg?
Turner will say she is profiting from the innocence of listeners weaned on rock artists who were songwriters first and performers a poor second. "And then," she explains triumphantly, "all of a sudden here comes Tina Turner flying and kicking and jumping. And they go, 'Wow! Look at that!' " So sure was one magazine of Tina's revitalized image that it made her a focus of its new, tongue-in-cheek ad campaign proclaiming her "one of the drab Homebodies" counted among its readers.
Right now the homebody is in Australia, involved in her latest career move...or, as she puts it, "the enormous leap I'm after," into film. Inspired after seeing an interview with her, director George Miller immediately scripted Turner into the latest of his Mad Max movies, her first film project since 1975's Tommy. The erstwhile Acid Queen is happy with her role as Entity, the proprietress of a post-apocalyptic Dodge City. "I don't want to do sexy movies," she says. "And I'm not funny, so I couldn't do comedy. I want to be dealing with some kind of war. Physical strength in a woman—that's what I am."
That strength may be sorely tested. There is an HBO gig in March, then a European tour, a new LP to make in April and a late summer U.S. tour to promote it. And in sold-out house after sold-out house, Tina Turner will be singing the lyrics written by an admiring British songsmith, who, after meeting her, was inspired to art by her aura:
I'm scanning the horizon
For someone recognizing
That I might have been Queen. No more "might have been" about it, Tina.
Tina Turner

Marion Williams
These two releases are a feast for gospel-music fans, one a reissue of classic '40s-'50s material, the second a contemporary recording by one of that era's worthiest stars.
The Gospel Sound of Spirit Feel offers a full spectrum of post-World War II gospel, from the rollicking, blues-drenched "99½" by Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Katie Bell Nubin to the jubilee-style formalism of the Fairfield Four's "Tree of Level." The album is filled with an irresistible mix of high drama, sensuality and vocal power.
Marion Williams, whose majestic voice is included twice on this collection, is far from a relic of gospel's golden age. Strong Again, her fourth Spirit Feel album, will only enhance her reputation as a pillar of traditional gospel. While this release lays more emphasis on the stately hymns of Dr. Isaac Watts and Thomas A. Dorsey, such songs as "Prayer List" and "O Happy Day" will satisfy fans of her more rousing, sanctified rockers.
Produced by gospel historian Anthony Heilbut, these albums convey respect for the past without being stodgy. They achieve the kind of joy and transcendence that pop music so often seeks and so rarely finds. (Spirit Feel/Shanachie)

CDS Meetings & Events
Application and Payment Policy | Booth Assignment Policy Cancellation Policy | Exhibitor Services Kit | Exhibit Personnel Badge Registration
Do not mail any applications or deposit checks to the CDS headquarters office. This will delay your application process.
Applications for Round 1 space assignments must be filed on the official applications (either interactive or PDF version). These applications are available online at CDS.org. Applications received in any other form will not be processed. All applications must be accompanied by a deposit of $1,000 per 10' x 10' booth space requested. No application will be processed without the required deposit, nor will booth space be assigned without submitting the completed official application and deposit. If requesting a meeting room, a $1,000 deposit per 10' x 12' meeting room must also accompany the application and booth deposit.
Booth space may not be reserved by phone, fax or email. All international exhibitors must submit the total booth rental fee with their applications, payable in U.S. funds and drawn on a U.S. bank. If sending the booth fee by wire transfer, a $50 bank fee must be included with the booth payment. Contact CDS directly for wire transfer banking details.
CDS may, at its discretion, accept or reject any application.
Applications for Rounds 2-4 space assignments must be filed on the official application available online at CDS.org. Applications received in any other form will not be processed.
All exhibitors must submit the total booth rental fee with their applications. If exhibit space is sold out and the exhibitor is placed on a waiting list, payment will be cashed. However, this is not confirmation by CDS of acceptance to exhibit. All exhibiting companies on the waiting list will be asked if they wish to be maintained on the waiting list for a possible cancellation by a previously assigned exhibitor. If space does not become available, the full amount paid will be refunded.
Payment for space rental is due in full. Failure to make such payment may result in the cancellation of booth space by CDS without refund of any deposit amount, unless prior payment arrangements are made in writing with CDS.
Return to Top
All booth spaces are 10' x 10'
The rental fee includes the following:
Aisle space may be rented only to those companies that have purchased two islands or peninsulas which are situated across the aisle from each other. Purchased aisle space may be used for decoration (i.e. carpeting, archways), as well as for exhibiting purposes, distribution of materials/literature, direct sales, exhibiting materials or booth furnishings, etc.
Exhibitors requesting island space MUST rent the extra space to create the island booth. For example, if the exhibitor requests a 20' x 30' island (six booths), a 20' x 40' (eight booths) will be needed to create the island. Unless otherwise instructed by the exhibitor, CDS will automatically carpet the additional two booths with the show aisle carpet, thus creating the island effect. Exhibitors requesting island or peninsula booth configurations must submit a rendering, which includes electrical and plumbing specifications.
All other aisles remain the property of CDS. Exhibitors may not encroach on these aisles for distribution of literature, mascots or any other miscellaneous activity.
Acceptable forms of payment are check, money order, wire transfer, American Express, Mastercard and Visa. CDS does not accept any other major credit card.
Exhibitors who use American Express, Mastercard or Visa must complete the Interactive version of the application only available at online.
All checks submitted with an application must be from the exhibiting company. Third party checks will not be accepted. Applications accompanied by a check issued from a third party (exhibitor-approved contractor or other agency) will be returned/refunded and the application will be considered invalid. The application will not be processed until valid payment is made.
To ensure proper credit to your exhibit account, all checks for payment should be made in U.S. funds and drawn on a U.S. bank. Make checks payable to the Chicago Dental Society.
Checks should be mailed with a completed application to:
If the application is paid for with a credit card, the cardholder must be an employee of the exhibiting company. (Third party credit cards will not be accepted.)
If you use FedEx, UPS or any other express delivery services, please send application and payments to:
International exhibitors must submit payment via wire transfer.
An additional banking fee of $50 must be included with the amount submitted via wire transfer. Please email Lisa Girardi for wire-transfer banking details.
Assignment of exhibit space shall be made solely at the discretion of the Chicago Dental Society. Assignment of exhibit space takes into account the number of continuous years of participation in the Midwinter Meeting, the type of space requirements needed by the exhibitor, and when the application to exhibit is received. All applications will be assigned in a fair and equitable manner.
The applicant's stated preference on the application and contract for a specific booth(s) is used as information only to assist CDS in determining the general area(s) in which the exhibitor wants to be located. To aid in the realistic assignment of space, we request that applicants not concentrate all their booth selections in one area of the Exhibit Hall. CDS does not guarantee that it will be able to assign the specific space requested on the application.
Requests for previous booth locations will be considered but can not be guaranteed. In addition, CDS can not guarantee that competitors will not be placed next to or near one another. CDS reserves the right to relocate exhibitors should it become necessary for causes beyond its control or advisable in the best judgment of CDS.
Each exhibitor will be contacted to discuss booth space availability. The written confirmation will be emailed the day the verbal agreement for booth space is made. The exhibitor must sign the confirmation and fax or email it back to CDS within 24 hours. If the confirmation is not signed and returned within 24 hours, the application is considered invalid and the space may be offered to another exhibitor.
All cancellations of booth or meeting room space must be made in writing. Cancellations not submitted in writing will not be honored. CDS will not refund any payments and the exhibiting company will be considered a no-show to the meeting, with the funds forfeited.
Exhibitors will not be relocated to any vacated booth space once setup begins at McCormick Place. CDS will make no exceptions.

Question: Do you have a favorite child?
Total Votes: 586
I have three kids. All of them are great but I find that I have a stronger connection to one of them. We just have more in common and get along better. I feel bad about that but that's just how it is. But with that said, I try very hard to make sure I don't show any outward sign of favoritism. I know how much that can hurt :-(
I'm on the home page!!!
So each child I spend time doing different things with, unless it's Harry Potter, my older two and I have marathon's with those movies complete with popcorn and cookies. Lol
I have two Children and my favorite is whichever one is listening to me the best.. HAHA
Seriously, no I don't have a favorite but I do try to spend special time with each of my children so that they BOTH feel special..
No favorites here, but I am scared more like paranoid that will change. We haea kinda unique situation though.
My 8 yo step daughter and 10 yo step son and 4 yo foster son have lived with us full time for 7 months. I was due
with my first child a girl yesterday. I am so scared that I may feel more love for her than the others and scared they
might see it. I love them all the same right now, each offers something precious to me and I don't want our
relationships to change whatesoever, but I don't know if that's even possible to avoid. I mean, my daughter will
be miune by blood, I've carried her the last 9 months, how am I not supposed to be closer to her? I really don't know
what to do about this, I haven't even spoken to dh about it I guess because I feel ashamed that I might feel more
strongly for our daughter together than his other two or our foster son. Ugh, it feels awful!!!
That's it, a stronger connection to one of them. We just have more in common and get along better. Of my 7 children, 2 were just easier to love, sweet, cuddly, loveable, and loving, and loved by all. My children think my 1st and last were my favorites, not so, Sometimes one just has more needs. Sometimes the one who is doing everything right gets neglected. Each of my children are special for different reasons. 2 of them are highly intellegent. All are smart and have done well. The 1st was special because it was all so new to me, and the youngest because he was the baby; soon followed by a grandchild! 2 of them were great athletes. All were cute, and are handsome, and beautiful. My daughter is special because she is my only, girl, and the little mother to her brothers, also a very successful adult, as they all are.
I am the mother of two eight years apart. My eldest is a daughter who is in college, my son is in middle school. With each child came unique things to appreciate. Chidren are truly a blessing and they keep us young. They help us ot experience a variety of life experiences that maybe we would not have had such an opportunity otherwise. Daughter was one that I shared more quiet things with. We read books together, shared drawing pictures and would be engrossed in nature where as my son and I have shared active interests, like bike riding, kicking a soccer ball around or playing basketball. There are no sort of favorites placing one in my heart above the other, but instead, both carry an equal fondness from me but for different reasons.
