BAY CITY, MI — Three people charged in connection with the shooting death of a Bay City man have to wait a few weeks longer before their cases are heard by a jury.
Bay City police have alleged that in the early morning hours of Dec. 14, Roberts fired a .12-gauge shotgun toward the pavement in the area of North Van Buren and Sixth streets. The blast ricocheted and fragments struck 20-year-old Santino A. Mota in his leg and eye, police allege. Mota was airlifted to an Ann Arbor hospital, where he died the same day.
Police arrested Roberts, Fite and Sian within a few hours of the shooting. Detective Nate Kamp testified in a March preliminary examination that Roberts told him he, Sian, Fite and another female friend went to the East Side intersection with two shotguns. Roberts said he saw several people approaching him as they stood on the sidewalk, and that he fired the .12 gauge at the ground about 10 feet in front of the group, Kamp testified.
"He said that he saw someone, he didn't know who it was at the time, drop," Kamp said in court.
Roberts told Kamp he had gone to the site to fight 16-year-old Arthur Decatur II, Sian's ex-boyfriend, Kamp said. Kamp testified Roberts told him that he and Decatur had an altercation a few hours before the shooting, during which Decatur brandished a gun.
Roberts left the scene to retrieve the shotguns, which he told Kamp he used for deer hunting, the detective testified.
In a January hearing, Decatur testified he was at a friend's house near Sixth and North Van Buren streets when he received a phone call from Sian, asking him to walk to her residence at Baytown Family Neighborhood. Decatur stepped out of the house and saw Roberts and Fite outside, he said.
Fearing Roberts and Fite were going to jump him, Decatur went back inside the house, he testified. He called Sian and asked if she was trying to set him up, which she denied, he said.
A short time later, Decatur said he walked outside the house again and met up with a group including Santino Mota and his older brother, Moises Mota Jr. Decatur denied having called them to the site, saying they suddenly appeared.
Moises Mota testified in that January hearing that he and his brother were at a nearby party. He saw his younger brother talking on the phone.
"He put it down and said, 'Let's go,'" Mota testified. "Tino said there was some stuff going down."
Bay City Police Lt. Joseph Lanava, testifying in March, said Sian told him the incident was precipitated by Decatur threatening to slit her throat, which upset Roberts.
Roberts is charged with second-degree murder, three counts of felony firearm and single counts of carrying a weapon with unlawful intent and discharging a firearm without malicious intent. Fite and Sian are each charged with accessory after the fact to a felony, with Fite also charged with two counts of felony firearm and one count of carrying a weapon with unlawful intent.
All three defendants remain in custody at the Bay County Jail.

Oregon stands to benefit as spotlight returns to Big Ten vs. Pac-10
EUGENE -- Kirk Herbstreit, the broadcaster and former Ohio State quarterback, said his old conference is weathering a perfect storm.
"I don't know if ever in my lifetime, maybe in the history of the Big Ten ... I've never seen the Big Ten viewed as poorly, universally, as it is right now," said Herbstreit, who pointed to big losses by his alma mater in back-to-back national title games and Michigan's embarrassments last season.
Oregon, which plays at Purdue on Saturday, knows that as well as anybody -- even if it does feel a little superior in a showdown of conferences with contrasting styles.
What: No. 16 Oregon (2-0, 1-0 Pac-10) at Purdue (1-0, 0-0 Big Ten)
When: 12:30 p.m. Saturday
Where: Ross-Ade Stadium, West Lafayette, Ind.
On the air: TV on KATU (2/ABC); radio on KXL (750), KXTG (95.5)
Which conference is stronger, Big Ten or Pac-10? Comment at the end of this story.
Oregon is 6-4 against the Big Ten since Mike Bellotti took over as coach in 1995. All but two of those games have been close -- a notable exception being last season's 32-point win at Michigan:
Year Opponent Score
1995 vs. Illinois W, 34-31
1998 vs. Michigan State W, 48-14
1999 vs. Minnesota* W, 24-20
1999 at Michigan State L, 27-20
2000 at Wisconsin L, 27-23
2001 vs. Wisconsin W, 31-28
2003 vs. Michigan W, 31-27
2003 vs. Minnesota* L, 31-30
2004 vs. Indiana L, 30-24
2007 at Michigan W, 39-7
2008 at Purdue
2009 vs. Purdue
*Sun Bowls
The national spotlight this week is on the Big Ten vs. the Pac-10, but it is shining on Los Angeles, where the fifth-ranked Buckeyes look to regain a little respect against No. 1 USC. Washington (Oklahoma) and UCLA (BYU) are also playing ranked, nonconference opponents; so, it could be a big weekend for the Pac-10 to make others view it as highly as Kelly does.
Oregon coach Mike Bellotti said to compare the Pac-10 to the Big Ten or to any conference is "more for the fans to discuss." But Arizona State's Dennis Erickson had plenty to discuss last season when Illinois went to the Rose Bowl.
So did California's Jeff Tedford in 2004, and even USC's Pete Carroll in 2003 and, of course, Bellotti in 2001 when the Ducks were denied a spot in the title game. That was a year after the Pac-10 threatened to leave the BCS if its teams didn't get the bowl bids it felt they deserved.
Power of perception
Even with today's more "perfected" BCS system, perception does come into play.
The 16th-ranked Ducks (2-0, 1-0 Pac-10) are clearly the class of the Northwest, with a winning program, loud stadium, sparkling facilities, etc. But the fact remains that, to many people around the nation, Oregon is merely one of the nine teams that make up USC's conference schedule.
"You see if coach Bellotti will agree to allow us to play 12 men versus their 11," Tiller said. "Outside of that, I don't have any answers."
Tiller, in his 12th and final season at Purdue, brought the spread offense to the Big Ten. But it's a passing offense -- spread the field to create seams for receivers -- whereas the Ducks use a spread-option attack equally adept at running and throwing.
"He's a great coach, a great man who brought a lot to Purdue football and helped revamp a lot of offensive concepts to the Big Ten," Bellotti said.
Tiller once referred to his offense as "sissy ball." Others call it "basketball on grass," both of which amused Kelly.
"If ours is basketball on grass, then we play like the Detroit Pistons of the old days," Kelly said.
The Ducks probably don't want to get into a scorefest with the Boilermakers. Under Tiller, Purdue is 60-5 when scoring 30 or more points and 34-0 when scoring at least 40.
Purdue has supplied the NFL with quarterbacks, from Bob Griese and Len Dawson to the more recent group of Jim Everett, Jeff George, Mark Herrmann, Kyle Orton and Drew Brees. The current quarterback, Curtis Painter, probably will start soon in the NFL, too.
With another productive season, Painter should break Big Ten records in attempts, completions, passing yards and total offense. Purdue may not be one of the best teams in the Big Ten -- after all, it has lost 14 consecutive games to ranked opponents -- but it is the pass-happiest.
But as impressive as that group of Boilermakers passers is, it is still no match for the Pac-10.
"What separates the Pac-10 from the Big Ten is offensive skill," Herbstreit said. "These kids come out of the womb ready to throw a football. I'm blown away by how far quarterback play has come in the last 10 or 15 years."
"Watching Northwestern win football games and compete with maybe more talented teams in the Big Ten by virtue of what they were doing," Bellotti said when listing his early influences.
Measuring up
Styles and skills certainly differ from conference to conference, and the debate about which is better will always rage. The SEC has enjoyed the reputation recently as being the best. This season, perhaps it's the Big 12. At least the Pac-10 teams are measuring themselves against a variety of BCS teams in their nonconference schedules.
The Oregon-Purdue game is one of four matchups with the Big Ten this year. Also, Pac-10 teams face the Big 12 three times, the ACC twice, the SEC twice, and they have three games against Notre Dame. In 2010 the Pac-10 plays more Big 12 opponents (five) than any other league.
Oregon is scheduled out to 2017 and is negotiating series for 2018 and 2019. But Purdue's return visit to Eugene in 2009 is the last Big Ten meeting scheduled for the Ducks, as Tennessee (2010, 2013), Kansas State (2011 and 2012), Colorado (2014 and 2017) and Georgia (2015 and 2016) loom as future BCS opponents.
So the Ducks won't have many more opportunities to make a splash against the Big Ten, as they did in last season's 39-7 win in Ann Arbor.
"Last year's Michigan game probably got as much scrutiny for what happened the week before to Michigan (a loss to Appalachian State) than anything else," said Bellotti, who has gone national in his recruiting over the past three or four years.
After all, in West Lafayette, Ind., on Saturday, the Ducks might run a play where a quarterback from Georgia (Justin Roper) fakes to a running back from Florida (LeGarrette Blount) and throws to a receiver from Tennessee (Terence Scott). And a national television audience will be watching.
Then, viewers will flip to the Ohio State-USC game. Maybe many of them still will look at the Pac-10 as USC's league. Maybe they won't.
"Before they played a game, I would have thought it would be USC and everybody else in the Pac-10," Herbstreit said. "After a couple of weeks, I still have to think USC is the team to beat in the Pac-10, but I have to tell you, out of all the conferences, the conference I'm most intrigued by after two weeks is the Pac-10."
Herbstreit said the impressive Ducks, California Golden Bears and the rapidly improving Arizona Wildcats have changed his thinking. Kelly said he believed all along that the Pac-10 is the best football conference.
"I always have felt that way," he said. "Or else I wouldn't have come here."
Now, to change a few more minds.

Read Whole Story
As much as Allen's film characters are enough to give an audience a general understanding of what Woody Allen is all about, it is another thing entirely to listen to him actually tell you himself.
PBS' recent broadcast of a two-part biography on Woody Allen and the encomiums of Chris Rock, Larry David, and many others raises an interesting question: Is Woody Allen the greatest American artist of the past 50 years?
Woody Allen may not be your first pick to win a boxing match, but in this clip of the director, Allen totally outclasses a kangaroo in the ring.

Rod Selection
I am new to this site and am getting back into fly fishing. I will be graduating college very soon and will have more time. Having had to pay for school I had sold my two rods and reels to help pay for some of the costs. I used to have a G Loomis Streamdance Metolius 9 ft 4 weight with a Ross Cimarron #2 and a Sage Fli 3 weight with an okuma reel. I am looking to expand from just trout fishing and interested in going after bass as well. I am wondering if a 5 weight would give me the versatility (to still tackle trout) and be able pull some of these big bass away from cover. I am partial to loomis rods and found someone who has a pretty good deal on a new PRO4x 9' 5 weight. Any information is much appreciated. Thanks!

President Obama's re-election victory Tuesday was in every sense a remarkable political achievement. Incumbents going before the voters saddled with economic statistics like those Obama amassed in his first term - in particular an unemployment rate higher than any incumbent had since FDR - have historically gone down to defeat.
But Obama won nonetheless and did so surprisingly early in the evening, which meant he ran competitively across the nation. The Republicans have to reckon with that, and accept it with the congratulatory approach his win deserves. In other words, for now bipartisanship does indeed begin with Republican concessions.
In particular, Republican recalcitrance on tax hikes will most likely have to abate. There does not seem to be any other way around the impasse that has put the nation on the edge of a Jan. 2 'sequestration,' an ugly word that aptly conveys what would follow from the automatic 10 percent cuts in discretionary spending that would kick in on that date without a debt reduction agreement. Reaching that deal without the tax increases Obama wants is no longer feasible or, the voters have said, desirable.
The Senate will also remain solidly in Democratic hands. The size of their majority probably owes more to the stupidity of a handful of Republican candidates than to Obama's coattails, but regardless it means the GOP lacks leverage when it comes to combating the proposals of Obama's second term.
That will matter on budget matters where additional tax increases beyond those already built-in to things like Obamacare seem certain. The Republicans' electoral failure means they have neither the power in Congress to block such taxes nor any claim on a public will to do so.
Just what Obama wants, exactly, remains unclear. Obama never bothered with submitting a budget for most of his first term, preferring instead to let the economy lurch forward on auto pilot with annual deficits north of $1 trillion. Similarly, he sought re-election not on any new ideas to tackle that problem, but rather by painting his challenger, Mitt Romney, as an unacceptable choice.
Nevertheless, Obama's thin case won. Elections have consequences, and the Republicans can't simply bray about alternative economic ideas. The American people were presented with those options and rejected them.
There was a school of thought prior to the election - still inchoate, but increasingly prevalent - that the American economy is poised to rebound. If it does, Obama and Congress will have more flexibility in solving the nation's financial ills. But if it does not, then Obama has an open window in the next two years, roughly, to once again put his ideas in motion, as he did in 2008. It would be churlish and irresponsible of the GOP to not embrace some of them.

Amanda Van Essen is a small business owner and resident of Hudsonville. She is a member of the Michigan Chapter of the Campaign to Fix the Debt, a non-partisan movement designed to help put America on a better fiscal and economic path through grassroots activism and pressure on the U.S. Congress.
By Amanda Van Essen
As Michiganders in our state continue to struggle with high unemployment and a still-ailing economy, as many as 8,700 Department of Defense employees, as well as members of the U.S. National Guard are working shortened work weeks – and receiving less pay – as a result of sequestration-induced furloughs.
These service members of The Michigan National Guard, a component of U.S. National Guard, are a cornerstone of our Michigan security.
But now because of the mindless spending cuts brought about because of "sequestration," the Michigan National Guard is being threatened with automatic spending cuts that will impact military families and affect the Guard's readiness.
Sequestration over time will reduce retention, resulting in a huge loss of institutional knowledge and capability. It will also result in fewer dollars for training. The end result will be a less prepared and less equipped Michigan Guard.
RELATED: Sequester effects in Michigan: See which programs, agencies will be hit hardest by federal cuts
And it's not just the Guard that is affected by sequestration – Head Start (education), conservation programs, and health research efforts are also falling victim to these senseless cuts.
The reality is: our nation is $17 trillion in debt, and cuts must to be made. The sensible people of Michigan understand this, but Washington must replace the sequester with larger, more gradual and sensible spending reductions and pro-growth tax reform.
Most importantly, the sequester does nothing to control the long-term drivers of our debt – our increasingly-costly entitlement programs and our outdated, inefficient tax code. Nonpartisan research shows that sequestration does not save enough over the long term to truly control our debt over future decades, nor does it adequately preserve necessities such as The National Guard.
These short-sighted cuts are too abrupt, too blunt, and too front-loaded at a time when we should be phasing in smart reforms over time. Therefore sequestration needs to be replaced with a balanced and carefully calculated plan.
It is time for leaders in Washington to understand the value of bipartisanship and compromise. We need a big deal – one that reforms our entitlement programs to make them solvent for years to come and that restructures the tax code to close loopholes.
Realistically, such a deal would look at our entitlement programs, the true drivers of our debt, and figure out how to tweak them so as to cut costs over the long term. Similarly, Congress and the President need to figure out how to reform the tax code in order to fairly raise the money needed to pay for the vital services we need our government to provide.
As member of the Michigan Chapter of the Campaign to Fix the Debt, I believe Senators Levin and Stabenow and our members in the U.S. House of Representatives must lead the charge for elected officials to work together to forge a bipartisan solution that gets America back on track while protecting our nation via programs like the National Guard.
Important jobs and the our nation's security depends on it.

Because it's way down past Cabo, it'll send swell in the wrong direction for most places south of Pt.Concepcion. It'll be a very steep angle out of the S/SE. Look for breaks that are open to that swell window. Mainland Mex is gonna be Epic. I would expect some gnarly photos to come out of a certain beach break down there shortly.

As great of a spring that it's been, it's just gonna get better! That storm pointed at us like a laser over the past few days, at cat 4! Plus another southern hemi on top, plus another next week! The swell train just doesn't quit. Holy crap I've surfed a lot! I can't remember the last day that it wasn't at least HH on the sets and that I didn't get shacked!

Some possible forerunners today were scalloping up the beach mixed in with background southern hemi. What was typically a 70-80 yard left-hand grinder occasionally transformed into a 200-yard peaky runout with multiple barrel sections. I'll try to snag a photo tomorrow if it gets really epic.

Updated at noon, Wednesday, Aug. 18: The time period to enter questions is officially closed. Tom is scheduled to call me in 10 minutes. Look for the big reveal of the question we picked with my preview story about the Aerosmith show next week.
Yes, that's Tom Hamilton of Aerosmith thumping with style on the YouTube clip above. The video's not great, but the audio's definitely right-on.
Why here and now, you ask?
I just got word from the publicists who handle American rock band classic Aerosmith that I'll be getting a phone interview Wednesday with Hamilton.
His answers will be part of a preview story for Aerosmith's Aug. 26 show at the New York State Fair's Mohegan Sun Grandstand, a classic rock night that kicks off the 2010 grandstand lineup.
In the spirit of this interactive world we live in, I'm willing to give up one question to the readers.
Submit something you'd really like Hamilton to answer by clicking comment. Come with your best game, and I'll pick one and tell him that it comes from the cyberworld of syracuse.com.

In Flames
After putting out The Jester Race album later that year, followed by 1997's Whoracle, In Flames' lineup was finally settled with Björn Gelotte (drums), Anders Fridén (vocals), Peter Iwers (bass), and Daniel Svensson (drums) in addition to Strömblad. To celebrate, the band released its sixth album, Colony, in 1999. Clayman followed in the same vein the next year, and the band even managed to keep the same lineup for this release. The live Tokyo Showdown was released to promote their tour in 2001. Reroute to Remain arrived in 2002, followed by Soundtrack to Your Escape in 2004 and Come Clarity in 2006. In 2008, the band released its ninth studio album, A Sense of Purpose, which featured the single "Mirror's Truth," followed in 2011 by Sounds of a Playground Fading, which was the first release not to include founding guitarist Strömblad, who'd left the band the previous year.
Exploring a more progressive sound, the band returned with their 11th album, Siren Charms, in 2014. Heading out on an extensive world tour throughout 2014 and 2015 in support of the album, the band also recorded a career-spanning show at Gothenburg's Scandinavium, which was released as the live set Sounds from the Heart of Gothenburg. At the end of 2015, longtime drummer Daniel Svensson announced his departure from the band. Without a full-time replacement the group nevertheless headed into the studio at the beginning of 2016 to start recording their 12th studio album. ~ Mike DaRonco

When I received the letter from Bernetta Stec of Caro asking for a recipe for glorified rice, I was mystified.
My first thought was it is some type of rice with herbs, perhaps sauteed in butter. I guess I did not have my thinking or cooking cap on.
Once the recipes started coming in, my next thought was oh, yes, I remember that dish. We have served it at family holiday dinners here and there.
Since we haven't had it in awhile, I'm thinking it was something my Aunt Helen probably made.
This started me thinking about where the recipe originated. Wikipedia to the rescue.
The site says it is a recipe that is truly ours. When I say ours, I mean the upper Midwest. The site says it's a favorite in Minnesota. Served in rural areas, it is popular with Lutherans.
What I couldn't find out was who put it all together in the first place. Wondering if it is one of those dishes a thrifty cook came up with to use leftovers after a holiday dinner.
You know, "Hey I think I will put all this stuff in a bowl and see how it tastes." I love that kind of cooking.
If anyone knows, drop me a line. I am always curious about things like this.
Another recipe for the rice also runs in Food Fare Nov. 18. And, as so often happens, each recipe is just a little bit different.
Glorified Rice
1 cup uncooked white rice
¼ cup sugar
2 cans (15-ounce) crushed pineapple
1 cup miniature marshmallows
1 cup heavy cream, whipped
6 maraschino cherries
In a saucepan, bring 2 cups water to a boil. Add rice; stir. Reduce heat, cover; simmer 20 minutes.
In a large bowl combine cooked, cooled rice, sugar, pineapple and marshmallows. Fold in the whipped cream. Chill 4 hours.
Spoon rice mixture into 6 dessert dishes and place a cherry on top of each.
Serves 6.
Judy Duke, Roscommon
Glorified Rice
1 cup cooked, cooled rice
1 can (13-ounce) crushed pineapple, drained
1/4 cup to 1/3 cup sugar, to taste
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup chopped Maraschino cherries
1 cup chilled whipping cream, whipped
Mix rice, sugar, pineapple and vanilla. Stir in marshmallows and cherries. Fold in whipped cream.
Note from Barb: Depending on allergies, I add 1/2 cup nuts and ½ cup shredded coconut
Makes 6-8 servings.
Barbara Hauck, Frankenmuth

Orioles acquire Morse for Avery
Needing a boost for the stretch run, the Orioles –who had been aggressively pursuing another bat– acquired Michael Morse from the Mariners in a waiver claim trade on Friday afternoon that sent outfielder Xavier Avery to Seattle.
"We just need a little bit more punch in our lineup and hopefully mike will be able to add that to the team," executive vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette said of Morse, who is expected to fill Baltimore's designated hitter role. "He's had some good offensive numbers over the course of his career. He's a big, physical guy whose athletic and has experience in the postseason."
The O's, who are fresh off Thursday's sweep avoiding win at Fenway Park, are hoping Morse can rebound from a disappointing season. The 31-year-old Morse started the season well in his return to the Mariners — the team he debuted with in 2005– but a broken finger and a strained hamstring set him off track. In just 76 games for Seattle, Morse posted a .226/.283/.410 slash line including 13 homers.
While with the Nationals last year, Morse batted .302 with six homers in September before going 5-for-19 with a homer in the postseason. He spent four years in Washington (2009-12) after four up-and-down seasons with the Mariners, and had career highs of 31 homers and 95 RBIs in '11.
"He was hot earlier this season," Duquette said of Morse, who will wear No. 38 with his new club. "Hopefully, he'll be able to get back to that."
The Orioles also won the waiver claim on Minnesota's Josh Willingham but were unable to swing a deal and they were heavily rumored as the club who wanted Kendrys Morales, who Seattle pulled back off waivers. Seattle needed a a roster spot for Friday night's debut of young starting pitcher Taijuan Walker, and will get the speedy Avery in exchange for Morse. Avery, 23, was ranked No. 10 on MLB.com's Top 20 Prospects for the Orioles and has 29 steals with 70 runs scored in 120 Minor League games, split between Double-A and Triple-A.
Morse is expected to join the Orioles in New York, with his availability for Friday's series opener against the Yankees uncertain. The Orioles aren't expected to make any more external moves before September callups on Sunday.

We have home run hitters all throughout our line up and how is that working out for us! Was hoping we might obtain a contact hitter that could keep a rally going.
Hate to them give up such Hot Prospect for Designated Damaged Goods.

Nuremberg resident Marvin Zeyss is a budding house and techno producer who wears his heart on his sleeve.
Although not a musician in the traditional sense, he always had a strong passion for music and began to produce electronic music in 2007. Not being one to subscribe the arguably popular sound of 'minimal techno', Marvin describes his own style as a combination of 'Uncommonly Deep and Techy' and draws influence from life and producers all around the world.
With his debut release on NYC's Nightchild Recordings and a lot more, 2010 was the year Marvin Zeyss said Hello to his industry of choice. After less than one year his tunes made their way into the BeatPort TOP100 Charts.
It didn't take long until people began to notice him and so we can be curious about what the future will bring for this young talent. At just 20 years of age, Marvin Zeyss is a name we'll be hearing from in house music circles for many years to come.
Just one year after his first release, the first Vinyl on Brown Eyed Boyz Records featuring two remixes for his tunes "Next To You" and "You Got Me" one by the great Maya Jane Coles and one by the also well known Tevo Howard, the attention level raised again a lot.
While signing EPs with 1Trax, i! Records and his first own Vinyl with SpaceBreaks Records, he also played out more and more.
Things started to go into the right direction!
Excited about the future and what would come up next in this still very young story, his focus lies even more on the beauty of life & sound.

Adam Zagoria is reporting that Michael Glover is on campus and taking classes at Seton Hall this semester. Yesterday concluded SHU's "Add/Drop" period. In order to take classes in South Orange, Glover had to register by then.
There is virtually no possibility of Glover playing basketball for the Pirates this year. However, a recruit has five academic years to play 4 years of basketball. Therefore, if he somehow qualified by next season he would have all four years of basketball eligibility remaining. Your clock begins ticking during your first academic semester, not the first time you play basketball.
Zags also has news that 6-5 high school senior Sean Kilpatrick will be at the Rock tonight to catch the Pirates take on South Florida. Kilpatrick is a 6-5 natural two-guard who currently holds offers from St. John's and Kansas State among others. He does not yet have a scholarship offer from Seton Hall, but there is interest on both sides. Check out Zagsblog for what Kilpatrick has to say about his eligibility and for a brief update on Gary Flowers.

Customer Quote
"We are a major healthcare corporation and have been using Tivoli Remote Control for remote monitoring of 16,000 end user workstations for the last 2 years. We evaluated the new version of this product and found the enhanced Auditing and Video recording of helpdesk actions allows us to make more use of the remote take-over capabilities of desktops in our regulated healthcare environment.
The biggest concern related to the use any type of remote control tool in the healthcare industry is obviously privacy and confidentiality. For this reason, we previously have had to scale back the use of control quite considerably in order to protect patient information. Tivoli Remote Control 5.1 helps address this concern at the support front. This will reduce the time to resolve problems significantly."

text: Hello There. I'm still playing with embedding Perl, and I wrote the following function: void my_load_module(pTHX_ char *module_name) { SV *sv_name = newSVpv(module_name, 0); SV *sv_ver = newSViv(0); load_module(PERL_LOADMOD_NOIMPORT, sv_name, sv_ver); // SvREFCNT_dec(sv_name); // SvREFCNT_dec(sv_ver); } The idea is simple: declare two scalars, one containing the name of the module to be loaded and the other the number '0'. (that's the minimum version) pass these scalar to load_module, and in the end free the scalars. Can anyone tell me why-o-why when I remove the two comments on the two SvREFCNT_dec, I get two matching error messages: Attempt to free unreferenced scalar: SV 0x0.... (the errors appear immidiatly after the executaion of these lines. Not in the end of the program) Thanks, Shmuel.

NEW YORK -- Jerry Manuel talked about making "adjustments," about giving everyone a chance to show what he can do, until someone steps up and shows he can get outs in the late innings.
But then someone pointed out that Monday the interim manager pretty much used all of his relievers -- Joe Smith, Pedro Feliciano, Duaner Sanchez, Aaron Heilman and Scott Schoeneweis. Who else is left?
"I might start using starters down there," Manuel said, smiling ruefully. "Everything, from here on out, is a possibility."
Including maybe using rookie Eddie Kunz?
"It's a possibility," Manuel said. "I've got to give him a shot. I might have to give him a shot. I've got to see what he looks like. I didn't want to put him in that situation, but ... he's got to feel like, 'I've got to be considered.' And I've got to do that. I've got to go and get everything I can. I've got to do everything I can -- with the people that I have here."
Asked if he thought he could close games at the major-league level, Kunz, who had 27 saves this season for Double-A Binghamton, said absolutely.
"I'm ready whenever they need me," he said.
So, too, is Sanchez. Until a few weeks ago, Sanchez had been a reliable eighth-inning bridge to Billy Wagner, before he started losing velocity and went through a rough spot. Manuel theorized he just had to work through a dead arm stage, having not pitched this late in a season in two years, and Sanchez insisted he's past that now, and is regaining is velocity.
"I'm getting it back," he said of his fastball. "(Saturday night) I threw 92, so that's perfect for me."
Sanchez was the only reliable reliever Monday, getting four outs without giving up a hit or walking anybody. Asked if he could handle the ninth inning, Sanchez said, "I'm prepared to pitch in any inning."
Robinson Cancel got the start behind the plate because Ramon Castro's right ankle was still hurting. Cancel hit his first major-league home run, a solo shot off the left-field foul screen in the sixth inning that gave the Mets a 5-1 lead. ... David Wright's three-run homer in the first was the 120th of his career, tying him with Edgardo Alfonzo for seventh on the Mets' all-time list. ... Pedro Martinez has a 2.70 ERA in his last five starts.
Manuel said Castro is not so bad that the team has to consider putting him on the DL. Of course, the team apparently does not have to open a spot for rehabbing 2B Luis Castillo right now. Castillo left Port St. Lucie, Fla., where he had been playing rehab games with the Class-A St. Lucie Mets, to take care of what Mets spokesman Jay Horwitz called a "personal situation."
Castillo, on the DL with a strained hip flexor/quadriceps muscle, had been on track to possibly rejoin the Mets tonight in Washington, but Manuel said that is unlikely to happen now.
Manuel raised the possibility that Brian Stokes, who started Saturday's game, could get another start, even after John Maine returns to the roster tomorrow.
"He would also be a guy that we would consider if we feel guys need an extra day, to be a sixth starter," Manuel said. "So he has some good options available for him."
After Sunday's game, Manuel had said it was possible Mike Pelfrey would benefit from an extra day off, since his losing twice in his last three starts may be an indication he is tiring in his first full major-league season.

I spend a lot of time reading wikipedia and Wiki and I've been interested in playing with fiction forms in the digital world and I have a long standing interest in digital collaboration and new-media. So taking all of these facts, phenomena, and interests into consideration, I'm brewing a new idea.
Basically this is to be a wiki. Think original science fiction in the form of Wikipedia flavored with the tone TVtropes. I wrote to ?mahkara:
I've been known to fire up Wikipedia and say to myself, "I'd like to read about Iranian public transit" (say) and then get lost for (too long) reading various Wikipedia pages and just clicking about.
Why couldn't you do something like that with fiction? Or a kind of text that people might get into in a similar vein? It'd be an exposition fest. So maybe you'd need a pile of posts (perhaps in a blog format(?),) that would include character names, settings, time periods, etc and present some sort of dialogue.
I've written a blog post called "?A Wiki Fiction Project" that where I explain my goals, values, and strategies for this project. I'm going to try and keep the "meta" discussion of this project separate from the content.
I'll be constructing some of the content here before I move it to it's own site. Feel free to chip in, or ask questions inline or be in contact if you want to get involved and can't think of the right place to get started.
(Working Title; by ?the editors; ref)
Humans started establishing permanent colonies in the solar system in the 24th and 25th century, but it would be another 50 years until people started to emigrate in earnest. The outcasts and dissidents left first, along with certain religious sects, until most people were not terribly troubled by the prospect of leavening everything behind for a slot on one of the next transports to ?Mars, ?Ganymede, or even the ?Earth-L4 Settlement.
Within a few years, they couldn't run enough ships to the colonies to accommodate the demand flow. They couldn't move people out fast enough. Which only made things worse, really. Everyone saw their time on-planet as being finite. So while the release valve on the population crisis reduced some of the immediate overcrowding concerns, a planet full of people aching to leave created neither a stable political situation nor responsible ecological or economic behaviors.
After a particularly trying summer, a series of riots known as the "?Visa Riots" sealed Earth's fate. Not long after the riots the Integrated Systems Database's master node moved to stations around Venus. The ISD was distributed--no one decided to move it--but in the aggregate, connections to ?Venus from most of the outposts were more reliable. Earth never recovered and the systems administrators had sealed its fate. By ?2675 the Earth for accounted 25% or 35% percent of humans in the solar system, and that number never grew again. Universities moved off world, manufacturing moved to the asteroid belt and Mercury, intrasystem ship movements were dispatched from ?Luna or Mars, depending on the decade major political organ, a Senate, moved to Mars.
Mars too burned hot and fast. The artificial-settlements, all settlements were artificial, even on Earth after a fashion, couldn't grow fast enough to accommodate the population shift. Large spells of immigration lead to overcrowding. While ?artificial habitats and self contained environments generally improved the quality of life and ecological efficiency of a human population, they weren't as flexible and the limits of their carrying capacity were harder. There were no true ?environmental crises on Mars--or anywhere--after ?2480, but there had been a number of close calls, and a particularly virulent flu season that affected 45% percent of the colony and caused a number of deaths.
Little separated the actual structures of the planetary habitats from the orbital facilities in reality. All structures had unique ?gravity systems to compensate for the ?local norm, excepting that, they were all fundamentally identical. Habitat structures on planets were as lucky to fail as ones in space. Planetary structures, at least on Mars, were easier to fix, given relative pressures, particularly as the environment changed. But this alone didn't account for the push toward celestial bodies rather than constructed outputs. open-question
The ?Martian Revolution and it's aftermath formally restructured the government and allowed the ?Europan Bureaucracy to emerge as a major power. With Earth out of the picture politically, the colonists began to expand their building projects and began the ?Exodus. The solar system would never depopulate, but construction efforts went toward building great convoys for ?Aldebaran, ?Sirius, ?Epsilon Eridani, ?Wolf 359, or ?Pyrcyon.
The expanding capacity on the colonies, and the death of the imperialist age on Earth meant that living conditions on Earth improved, though the planet never had to cope with significant population densities again.

ROCKFORD – The founder of the Tea Party of West Michigan said the backlash after last weekend's shootings in Arizona is frightening.
"It scares me that people and legislators will start to crack down on free speech or there will be another cry for gun control," said Tina Dupont. "Whenever there is something like this our civil rights get thrown out the window."
Dupont said criticisms of the tea party movement's call for revolution are misplaced.
"It's politicizing a terrible event by a young man who by anyone's outlook is mentally disturbed," she said.
Dupont, who appears on her group's website wearing a pirate's costume, said the Tea Party movement is nonviolent.
"The Tea Party members as a general rule are very respectful. We have never had an incident at any of our events," she said.
Dupont said she does not believe the shootings require a change in gun control laws. She said she did not have an opinion on whether mental health system needs change.

Thank you for sponsoring Dave Ramsey Live in Colorado Springs. I would never have thought to send my jewelry to any of these gold buying services if it weren't for Dave.
Shelba Rudek
I just received my check in the mail and am so grateful. I am so amazed how fast the service was! There were several things I sent that I wasn't sure about, but I sent them any way. I will definitely recommend this service to anyone who will listen to me. Thanks again, working through baby step #2!

Melissa, Atlanta GA
The party last night was a success! We had a pretty decent turnout and I think the total purchased for the night was a little over $1700! I had a great time, Megan and Erica were just awesome.

Thanks again for all of your help, and I definitely plan on trying to get another party together as soon as possible!
Steph, Orlando FL
When I lost my job I had to do something quick. I had barely enough money to get by for a couple of days. I decided to sell some old jewelry I had lying around the house. Gold Stash bought all my old jewelry and gave me a good amount of money. I was able to get by for a few months before finding a job. Thanks Gold Stash.

I have always looked for a quick way to make some extra money from time to time and most of what I have found never seems to work or is just a way for other people to take my money. Now that times are tough again for most of us, I wanted to let people know about Gold Stash and how it has helped my wife and me get that extra money that helps out. Basically I took all of my old jewelry that I really can't wear any more and sent it in for money, instead of trying to sell it on eBay or at a yard sale. It was fast and easy, best of all it pays. Try it out.
Beverly, Dallas TX
I recently hosted a gold party with Gold Stash. What a great night! Not only did I make $400 for hosting the party, but I was paid an additional $100 for referring 2 friends that had their own gold parties! Their event coordinator and buyer were professional and very easy to work with. Gold Stash made my party fun, easy and profitable!
Louise, Kansas City MO
I had some old gold herringbone and rope style bracelets from the 1980s... they were outdated and frankly, quite heinous really. So I asked Gold Stash for an approximate estimate and they sent me the return envelope, I plunked in the gold, mailed the envelope and within a week I was in the money! Next, I'm going to send in my gold veneers and all of my wedding rings! Thank you GOLD STASH.
Laura, St George UT
I had collected a lot of gold and silver items throughout the years. When I needed to have it all appraised and sold, Gold Stash was everything I was looking for. They were very skilled and knowledgeable and I got the deal I needed. Thanks Gold Stash!
Andy, Altamonte Springs FL
On a recent vacation I was walking the beach with my metal detector looking for jewels. After a while I had a pretty good amount of gold rings, necklaces, and the alike. I decided to give Gold Stash a try and to my delight I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of money I got back. Thank you Gold Stash!
John and Linda, Paradise Valley AZ
I was pleasantly surprised by what we were paid for our items.
Kimberly, Glendale AZ
Service was very good! Everyone was very friendly and I would use the service again as well as recommend Gold Stashto others. Thanks!
Scott, Sun City AZ
We were treated very well and were explained how the testing would be conducted. We were very happy with Gold Stash for Cash and would recommend them to anyone.
Bernard, Mesa AZ
This is a very pleasant and educational experience. I would not hesitate to recommend Gold Stash for Cash to my friends.
Chris, Mesa AZ
Fast Service, great pay and very convenient buyer! A+ Thanks Gold Stash I'll come back again!
Lynn, Greenville NC
I just wanted to say I was shocked at the amount of the check I received in the mail this week. I only sent in 2 items, a 14k gold necklace with kinks in it and 10k gold ring that was broken in the middle. I was expecting to get maybe $20 at the most. You sent me a check for almost $50 bucks! Just wanted to say thanks and I'll be recommending you to all my friends.
Rene Stephens came in to Gold Stash on her lunch break one day. Thirty minutes later, she sat in her car, amazed at what she was looking at. A check for $470! When arriving back at work, she was so excited that she photocopied her check from Gold Stash and posted it to the bulletin board. Curious co-workers begin asking questions, and next thing Rene knew, she was booking a gold party with some of her girlfriends.
That evening, sitting at dinner with her husband, he asked what important meeting she had over lunch. She simply slid the check over to him, and he sat in amazement. It was a fun evening to celebrate.
Since that time, Rene hosted a Gold Stash Gold Party, combined with a Gold Canyon Candle party, where Rene is an Independent Demonstrator, and she made even more money. Now, she is excited about getting others involved-Maybe you're next!
Do you want the same kind of surprise reaction that Rene had? Come over to Gold Stash today.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- The space shuttle Endeavour and its crew of seven are back on Earth.
The shuttle swooped through the darkness to the illuminated runway at Kennedy Space Center in a rare nighttime touchdown Wednesday. The landing was a bit delayed because clouds had moved in at virtually the last minute.
The sky later cleared enough to satisfy flight controllers.
Less than one-fifth of all space shuttle flights have ended in darkness. Endeavour blasted off March 11. Its mission spanned 16 days and 6.5 million miles.

AGAWAM – Members of the School Committee Tuesday night agreed unanimously to postpone action on the School Department's proposed fiscal 2012 budget to Friday to give the head of the teachers union time to work with the school superintendent.
Robert A. Janik, president of the Agawam Education Association, said he would be willing to talk with School Superintendent Mary A. Czajkowski about ways to save jobs. One possibility mentioned by officials would be having teachers fill in for each other without pay to eliminate the cost of paying substitute teachers.
"I can tell you we are willing to sit down and look at any possibilities that will save jobs," Janik said to the gathering. He first waived any rights to file an unfair labor practice charge for being asked to negotiate in public.
The budget up for discussion Tuesday is a $34,194,167 spending plan, .84 percent higher than this year's School Department budget. It would mean the loss of 31.8 full-time equivalent positions, including 3.8 teaching positions and not filling the positions of six teachers who are retiring. Czajkowski said this is the fourth year in a row her department has been asked to come up with a level-funded budget.
Officials agreed to table action on the budget following a more than one-hour public hearing during which more than 50 people went on record as opposing the proposed spending plan.
Timothy M. McCluskey of 28 Candlewood Drive told School Committee members they have an obligation to provide "a quality education."
"Remember, you get what you pay for," McCluskey said.
Several speakers criticized Mayor Richard A. Cohen, who chairs the committee, saying he was uncivil in how he made some of his remarks.
Cohen told the gathering he has to balance a budget that is "right by everybody."
"There's a lot of people unemployed and one fixed incomes," the mayor said. "Look around. I am not a miracle worker. Nor is anyone else. I have a responsibility to 30,000 people."
The mayor said other communities in the area like Westfield and Springfield are also facing School Department layoffs.
Earlier School Committee members Diane M. Juzba, Shelley Reed and Kathleen Mouneimneh said they could not support the proposed spending plan because of the cutbacks proposed.
School Committee member Roberta G. Doering, who urged the committee to get Janik to work with the school superintendent, said if the budget were approved as is it would be the first time under her tenure that teachers' jobs would be eliminated.
Committee members ended up agreeing to postpone action on the budget to a meeting set for 5 p.m. Friday at the Roberta G. Doering School.

Gordon Lumber, once a mainstay in the Oak Harbor business community, is selling off the last of its land south of the Portage River Bridge as well as its corporate office building in Fremont.
"We just outgrew it and we already had a facility in Findlay," said operations manager Rob Hofelich of the reasoning behind closing the buildings based in Oak Harbor.
The building materials company notified village officials in early spring that it would be transferring the truss and panel division to the Findlay facility located near U.S. 224, according to Village Administrator Randy Genzman.
"They are completely out of here," he said Tuesday.
The move south allowed Gordon Lumber to quadruple its roof and floor truss operation, Hofelich explained. Ten employees once staffed the operation. There are 40 now in Findlay. The move to a larger city also allowed the company to draw from a larger pool of prospective staff in and around the area. It also placed the operation directly adjacent of the Interstate-75 corridor, a vital transportation route for the company.
Oregon City Council last week approved a contribution to the Oregon on the Bay Regional Economic Development Foundation to meet its budget needs and achieve the objectives of the city and Foundation.
The city makes annual contributions to the Foundation in exchange for the Foundation providing economic development services, marketing and promotion of the city, and fostering a healthy environment for business and development within the city.
This year, council agreed to contribute $70,000 to the economic development group.
Previously, the city's contribution would match the amount of contributions the Foundation received within the organization, said Mayor Mike Seferian.
"In the last several years, we have made the $70,000 contribution at this time juncture each year," he said.
Some on Oregon City Council said they were getting several calls from the public about mosquitoes and whether The Toledo Area Sanitary District Mosquito Control is spraying enough in their neighborhoods.
"With all the rain we've been having, a lot of people have been asking me, and complaining about, the mosquitoes. It's horrible. I know it's not directly the city's responsibility," said Councilman James Seaman. "The kids don't play outside - not because they want to play on their computers, but they're getting eaten alive really bad. Even when people take precautions of making sure there's no standing water, and things like that, the population seems stronger than ever right now. I don't know what the county does, if they do spray, or what the status of that operation is. But it's horrible right now." He asked City Administrator Mike Beazley to contact the Toledo Area Sanitary District to find out which parts of Oregon have been sprayed.
Councilman Jerry Peach asked Seaman if he has seen the Toledo Area Sanitary District spray in the neighborhoods.
Winning the tug of war at the Pemberville Free Fair is about pride — nothing else.
There is no huge cash prize, no oversized plastic trophy, and no ticket-tape parade through town for the winners.
This year will be the 40th Anniversary of Pemberville's annual tug of war, and organizers say it is here to stay. It's just too popular.
There have been six different classification winners each year, with 10 members on each winning squad, which equates to 2,400 winners. What they do get is a t-shirt — that's it.
In addition, once your team pulls its opponents across that line, they fall into a water-soaked pit, which no one complains about on a hot, muggy night in August. The only thing hurt might be the losers' pride.
Toledo last week continued to take samples and tests from the intake crib in Lake Erie after increased levels of microcystin, a toxin that shut down the city's water supply for three days last August, were detected on July 27, though the water was safe to drink.
Toledo officials have been monitoring the intake crib since Toledo Mayor Paula Hicks Hudson called a press conference on July 27 to announce that the city's water quality status had been changed from "clear" to "watch" after 0.5 parts per billion (ppb) of microcystin was detected in the intake crib.
On July 28, samples taken from the intake detected 0.4 ppb. "We are still on a "Watch" status," stated the city's Facebook page. "It's important to note this is raw water. Water leaving the treatment plant and entering households and taps are at a `non-detect.' Our new water protocols are working as we intended to provide the public with information about the changes in the quality of water as well as early warning of harmful algal blooms."

JACKSON, MI – Just three weeks ago, the East Jackson boys basketball team was looking up at a two-game deficit to Hanover-Horton in the Cascades Conference.
Fast forward to Friday night and the Trojans are celebrating at least a share of the Cascades Conference title after defeating Vandercook Lake, 60-49, with the possibility of taking it all.
"We never felt like we were out of it," East Jackson guard Aaron Griffiths said. "We never gave up because that's just not how we play."
The Trojans went through a grueling three-game stretch to earn the top spot in the conference, defeating Hanover-Horton at home and Napoleon and Vandercook Lake on the road.
Their road win over the Jayhawks Friday night didn't come so easy.
Vandercook Lake exploded out of the gates with a 14-6 advantage midway through the first quarter, but the Trojans closed out the quarter on an 8-0 run.
"Right at the start, I thought we came out a little tentative, and it was like we had to get our feet under us," East Jackson coach Greg Zeller said. "Once we got our feet under us, we did a pretty good job and got going."
Both teams exchanged several baskets to open the second quarter before East Jackson went on an 8-0 run which was capped off by a three-pointer by Zachary Dunn. Tyler Applegate answered with a three-pointer of his own to cut the Trojans' lead to 28-24 at the half.
"We got off to such a great start, but I felt like we turned awfully perimeter in that second quarter," Vandercook Lake coach Paul Varner said. "(East Jackson) is very athletic and they were able to get us in transition a little bit and part of it was our unforced turnovers."
East Jackson took full advantage of the Jayhawks' 20 turnovers, especially in the fourth quarter.
Leading by four points midway through the final quarter, the Trojans began to make the Jayhawks pay for their mistakes.
Off a Vandercook Lake turnover, Griffiths found Dunn in the corner for a three-point bucket which was followed up by an offensive rebound and put back by Zachary Griffiths. Wyatt Mathews closed out a 9-0 run with a pair of field goals off back-to-back turnovers by the Jayhawks.
The run left Vandercook Lake with a 13-point deficit and no chance of coming back.
"That (run) was just huge, and I think that was the turning point because I saw them walking away after that with their heads down," Aaron Griffiths said. "We just came out with fire, and when we get pushing the ball, it's hard to hang with us."
While the Trojans will enjoy the moment, Zeller knows his team wants it all to themselves. Standing in the way of the outright Cascades title is a matchup with Michigan Center on Thursday.
"This team is great forgetting the last one and moving on to the next one," Zeller said. "We'll go to play Leslie on Tuesday, which I'm not sure how much emotion we will have, but we will be ready to play on Thursday. "
The Trojans (14-4, 11-2 Cascades Conference) were led by Zachary Griffiths, Dunn and Darianne Harrell, who each came up with 10 points. Aaron Griffiths was the floor leader with eight points, eight rebounds and six assists.
Griffiths was also key on the defensive end, holding Vandercook Lake guard William Rodriguez, who averaged 17.5 points in his last four games, to three points on the night.
"Aaron said, 'I will take him,' and that's all I needed to hear," Zeller said.
Leading the way for the Jayhawks (11-7, 7-6) with 14 points each was Applegate and Josh Sheets. Sheets also came up with 10 rebounds while Charlie Holst chipped in with 10 points.

The birth of the Gardiner Expressway
The Gardiner — it's the expressway Toronto loves to hate. Controversial from the get-go, it was initially built in stages between 1955 and 1966, completely transforming the city's waterfront. An expressway along the current route was actually proposed back in 1947 and approved by the City's Works Committee before being voted down by council later that year.
The plan was subsequently abandoned until 1953, when Executive Committee chair Fredrick Gardiner brought it back to life just prior to the foundation of Metropolitan Toronto. Although the planning went somewhat more smoothly this time around, the route was revised a number of times due to local opposition, the most notable of which related to a plan to take the expressway right across the Fort York site.
When completed in 1966, the Gardiner extended from west of the Humber River to Leslie Street. Since then there have been more than a few calls to demolish the highway, replace it with a tunnel, and to turn it into a park. None of those have come to pass — although the section between the Don Valley to Leslie Street was knocked down in 2001.
Here are photos of the birth of the Gardiner.

Looks like Waterfront Toronto got approval to move forward with the Environmental Assessment in 2009.
But following that, there hasn't been any updates. My guess is that when Ford came in, they knew that any recommendations they'd be making would fall on deaf ears. Maybe they are waiting until after he's replaced before they stick their heads up and make noise about it.
Or maybe it's just been scrapped and is on indefinite hold.

But seriously the bridges are over 50 year sold and concrete falling form them at alarming rates. Something is going to have to be done.
Personally, I would rather less it either put underground, torn down, or made into a toll road.

HAMPTON TOWNSHIP — Patrick Steffen doesn't have a lot of extra time on his hands.
But he doesn't mind.
In fact, his eyes light up when he talks about all the things keeping him busy these days, including his job as a teacher at Essexville-Hampton Cramer Junior High School, a leader at Bay Valley Christian Church and coordinator of an annual camp for abused, abandoned or neglected children.
His resume of work and service to others has earned Steffen honorable mention in the running for this year's Dick Hardy Community Improvement Award."He is the epitome of an unsung hero, one who volunteers and serves others on a daily basis," Lisa Steffen wrote about her husband in her nomination letter. "Patrick is always looking for ways to help others. When something needs to be done, he just does it.
"It's just who he is."
On most weekdays, Patrick Steffen, 50, begins his days showing up early for work at Cramer Junior High, where he's been the health and fitness teacher for 18 years.
He's there early to open up the gymnasium 30 minutes before school starts so kids can blow off some early morning steam or just hang out and talk.
Steffen said it started as a one-time thing and turned into an "Are you going to do it again, Mr. Steffen?" kind of arrangement.
Dick Hardy Community AwardThe Dick Hardy Community Improvement Award honors a person in The Times readership area who best exemplifies commitment and pride in the community. Often, winners do their work as unsung heroes.
Dick Hardy spent more than 33 years working as a Bay City Times photographer, copy editor, news editor and senior news editor. Hardy, who died in 1996, had an abiding love for the Great Lakes Bay Region, its people and its traditions.
Each year, based on nominations from the community, a panel of judges, including Hardy's widow, Carol, selects a winner and honorable mention recipients.
"I don't believe that guy has ever had a bad day at work. He's just a positive, upbeat guy," said David Lovely, vice president of the Essexville-Hampton Board of Education, who has known Steffen for about 15 years. "He'd do anything to help a kid out. He looks at kids and asks, "What can I do to help?' Both my kids had him as a teacher. You just couldn't ask for a better teacher for your son or daughter.
"He's just a top-notch, quality guy."
Steffen also has been involved as a high school coach. He's coached wrestling and football and even took on the role of soccer coach when he admittedly didn't know a thing about the sport, simply because no one else had stepped up to do it.
"If there is a task or committee to volunteer for, he is ready and eager to help," said Lisa Steffen. "If there is a sport that needs a coach, he will take on the task. If a student or their family has a need — clothing, Christmas gifts, rides to places — Patrick will make sure the need is met."
On Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings, you'll find Patrick Steffen at Bay Valley Christian Church, 2535 E. Wilder Road, which he helped establish in 1991 and where he remains active as an elder and member of usher team.
Steffen's faith also led him to serve as the unofficial chaplain for the Saginaw Valley State University football team from 2000 to 2008, and as a mentor for kids at the Bay County Juvenile Home from 1992 to 2000.
"The best joy of life is serving people," Steffen said, adding he particularly enjoys working with young people, always encouraging them to reach for bigger and better things in life.
"I try to build them up," Steffen said. "I don't try to be preachy, I just earn my right to be heard."
That's especially important during the week-long Bay Area Royal Family Kids Camp that Steffen runs each summer for upwards of 40 children with challenging backgrounds.
Part of a national camp organization, Steffen said the free camp allows kids to enjoy the outdoors in a safe setting.
This coming summer marks Steffen's ninth year at the camp, and fourth year as its director. Though camp is only a week long, the Steffens spend the entire year fundraising, and recruiting and training volunteers.
"People always ask me, 'What's in it for you,'" Patrick Steffen said. "In my life, I'd rather affect people than make a boatload of money."
Lisa Steffen says her husband also is a loving father to the couple's daughters, Megan and Emily.
"He was born to serve others and is always doing so with a smile and a kind word," she wrote in her nomination letter. "He does it all with a glad heart and a thankfulness to be in a position to do so.
"I feel blessed to call him my husband, but I also know that our community is blessed that he is a part of it."
