A town meeting turns theatrical in Woodstock
WOODSTOCK There were two silver linings Saturday at the Woodstock Town Hall Theater.
There was the current marquee film, The Silver Linings Playbook and then a second element of newfound promise and good news for the tens of thousands of filmgoers who will visit their local theater in the years ahead.
Inside the same theater, up to 100 residents at town meeting debated passionately over whether to allocate $60,000 for a digital projector system. The article ultimately went to a paper ballot and when the votes were tallied, Town Clerk Jay Morgan announced the new projector was approved 123-31.
Supporters erupted with applause.
For Jeffrey Kahn, chairman of the Woodstock Town Hall Theater, the vote was to ensure that movies will continue to play for years to come. According to Kahn, the movie industry is no longer making 35-mm prints and its time for the theater to switch to newer technologies.
Kahn hoped the current equipment would last longer, but it already had sustained enough wear and tear. He said future Hollywood films will only come in digital form, so a digital system was necessary to show movies.
If the article did not pass, Kahn said, the theater would close at the end of the year.
Were showing The Silver Linings Playbook now and theres a silver lining to this particular article as well, Kahn said as voters laughed and applauded his comment.
You will have a superior experience when you come here as a result of this vote. I strongly urge you to vote yes.
Kahns request had its doubters. Ed English asked Kahn if he knew the towns film equipment was getting old, why hadnt the theater been saving money to replace it?
Sixty thousand dollars is quite a chunk, English said.
Kahn countered that the theater did not have the money to invest in a new system.
Marian Koetsier argued that the town should not be responsible because the theater is a Pentangle-operated facility. The Pentangle Arts Council is a nonprofit group that offers arts and theater programming at the local theater. Koetsier said upgrading film equipment is the cost of doing business and she seconded Englishs concerns about fundraising.
I really have a problem with the town supporting this funding, and I also have an issue with it not having been fundraised by the nonprofit, Koetsier said to applause.
Kahn said the movie operation would never exist as a private money-making venture and could not exist without Pentangles support. Several voters chimed in, saying they had no problems owning the digital projection system.
So many of you were here when this theater was condemned, said Peggy Kannenstine. But we put together a huge program to save it and the whole community pulled together... to make it what it is now. One of the big things that everyone wanted was the movies.
John Mathews agreed.
We need this theater or else we lose all the moviegoers to Lebanon, N.H., he said to more applause.
All money articles passed at town meeting Saturday. They include a $4,133,755 town budget, a sewer budget of $895,325, $3,000 to the Trustees of Public Funds for services rendered, $1,500 for the annual audit, $18,000 to the Woodstock Area Chamber of Commerce Welcome Center on Mechanic Street, and $25,000 for Vail Field improvements.
Voters also approved the $3,006,254 Woodstock Elementary School budget. The 2013-14 budget is $92,197 or 3.16 percent higher than this years budget of $2,914,057.
Woodstock voters will weigh in on ballot articles from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Town Hall Theater. These include a $2 million bond for Windsor County courthouse repairs, and the $11,322,305 proposed budget for Woodstock Union High School.

Most 73-year-olds aren't setting weight-lifting records.
However, Sandra Foli of Bloomington, Ill. isn't a typical 73-year-old. After a severe health scare several years ago, she decided to head to get her physical fitness on track and head to the gym.
Her hard work has paid off. Foli recently set a record in the 100 Percent Raw Powerlifting competition, where she completed a clean dead lift of 181.5 pounds.
"I see people one or two years older than I in a wheel chair and I don't ever want to be there," Foli told KFOR.
Foli plans to continue competitive weight-lifting. She will be heading to another competition in October, where she will both dead lift and bench press.

Out of stock items are built on demand. You buy it, we build it. Ships within 5 days.
In stock orders ship same day if received by 4:00 PM Mountain Standard Time!
As Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, the author of 'The Little Prince' once said, "He who would travel happily must travel light." As the smallest in our carry-on safari luggage series, the PR4 is perfect for overnight airline travel, as a gym bag, or a passenger seat companion for overland travel.
Featuring plenty of exterior pockets for organizing your gear and a cavernous interior compartment, the PR4 Safari Beanos Duffel holds more than you thought possible. Handy spacious end pockets allow easy access to your 'must have' gear, especially useful when stuffing the PR4 under the seat, be it plane, train, or bus. Both pockets zip halfway down their sides for easy access to buried belongings.
A zippered front flat pocket keeps your passport handy. The pass-through panel on the back side is designed for use as a docking sleeve with wheeled luggage. Unzip top and bottom zippers and slip it over the wheeled bag's telescoping carry handle (or leave the bottom zipper closed and it doubles as a second flat exterior pocket).
The spacious center compartment has a unique open flap with twin zippers that allow you to peel away the flap for unhindered access to your belongings. Twin steel turn locks keep the flap secure.
Like most of our duffel bags, the PR4 includes the famous Claw nonslip padded shoulder strap. Attached using heavy-duty 360 degree "claw-like" swivels, this hardware will endure any abuse you can throw at it. Carry the PR4 on your shoulder or cross body. Quickly detaches for storage inside in case you use your PR4 carry-on for checked luggage.
Our customers like to define our gear as "built like a tank". While obviously you're not going to be toting around bags that weigh 50 tons and have three inches of armor plate, still the comparison is valid. For a carry-on duffel bag, they are built tough. Starting with one of the most durable soft textile materials available, 1000 weight Cordura nylon, we use super strong UV resistant thread that is double stitched into every seam.
Places where two separate pieces of fabric are stitched together are then bound, that is, we take a long piece of one inch wide nylon webbing and fold it over the edges of the two pieces and stitch them together, this creates a strong seam, or binding, that prevents the pieces from unraveling on the inside of the bag, or gives it a clean finished look if on the outside of the bag. Inside edges typically receive a thinner nylon webbing, whereas outside corner edges that are exposed to wear will have a thicker nylon binding. All of our binding material is vertically woven to prevent fraying, peeling or splitting that you may commonly see in competitors bags that brag of "binding" their edges.
Each stress point, such as where the handles attach to the PR4, is double box stitched - which is where we get the "double xx" in our name, Red Oxx; a stitching practice we adapted from our time as parachute riggers.
The reason Red Oxx uses the largest zipper we can find, the #10 YKK VISLON® zipper, is that they are easily repairable, even in the field; they will hold their place, that is, they "lock"; they are difficult to penetrate, thereby increasing the security of your belongings; they function smoothly in inclement weather and they can be yanked from a variety of angles without losing teeth or becoming separated.
Red Oxx has occasionally been accused of "overdoing" our hardware. But once you've had a cheap piece of plastic hardware break in the middle of a busy intersection, airport or other inconvenient locale dumping your precious belongings all over the ground, having a heavy-duty nickel-plated or stainless steel D ring or attachment swivel that weighs just a little more, or might make a little noise, is a travel companion's confidence builder and peace of mind maker. After all, you want to enjoy your journey as best you can. Why worry about having your bag break down?
Ladies, if you want to use this on your next flight, stick your purse inside this spacious bag's center compartment and use it as your "personal item" in conjunction with your primary carry-on, such as an Air Boss or Sky Train.
For the men out there, fill it to the brim, and travel in the same carry-on manner.
Designed for the minimalist traveler out there, the Red Oxx Safari Beanos PR4 is still packed to the gills with overbuilt features that will serve you for a lifetime of travel.
Dimensions: 19"L x 9"W x 9"H (carry-on legal).
Capacity: 1,539 cubic inches.
Weight: 3.35 pounds.
Pocket measurements:

"Beanos" Trivia: Named after our friend "Beano" who needed a gear bag that could carry his clothes and still be carry-on legal. Named after his grandfather, a bean farmer in the midwest, whom he looked like as a kid. Formerly the Super Beano, the bag is now available in several sizes and is in it's 4th stage of design revision.
Safari Beanos PR4 is a Red Oxx "Staff Pick" favorite.

Thanks to a new crop of ultra-premium tequilas, this complex spirit no longer wears the frat-boy clothes of yore. Tequila can now be sipped and savored, in the same way you'd enjoy single-malt scotch or fine wine. Tequila types range from blanco ("white," unaged, light and smooth) to extra añejo ("ultra-aged" for at least three years in oak barrels).

I sit in the fighting chair aboard the 33-foot charter sport-fishing boat Reel Addiction, mesmerized by the churning wash of a stream of white bubbles into the clear, sapphire-blue South Pacific Ocean. Behind and above me on the bridge, at the helm, is skipper Steve Campbell, a 60-year-old tanned and sinewy ex-New Zealander.

A quality air charter provider should be able to have you in the air within two hours of receiving a call for a pop-up, or last-minute, domestic flight. [See "Taking Off in a Hurry"] But what if you need to alter the passenger manifest or amend your destination shortly before takeoff?

If I owned a business jet, my worst nightmare would go something like this: my airplane is involved in an accident and I get sued for zillions of dollars in damages.
May 13, 2013
It's too early to predict overall sales for 2013, but one key indicator—the number of aircraft for sale—continues to tick lower, suggesting that a recovery is still ongoing. In fact, the number of available jets and turboprops is now at its lowest point in roughly five years.
May 13, 2013
When it comes to outright aircraft ownership, you basically have two choices: hire a management company to handle operations and maintenance or set up your own corporate flight department. Done right, either option will afford you convenience and safety. What it really comes down to is cost versus control.

The latest generation of "little Lears" represents a big departure from what Bill Lear envisioned when he started his iconic company 50 years ago.

Three victims of a brazen shooting in the Seventh Ward on Mother's Day are in critical condition at the LSU Interim Hospital, officials told WDSU.
Marvin McGraw, a spokesman for the hospital, said the three victims are in critical condition but the injuries were not life-threatening.
Of the 19 victims in total, 11 were taken to the LSU Interim Hospital. Other victims were taken to other area hospitals.
McGraw said one person was listed in stable condition and seven had been discharged.
The shooting occurred about 1 p.m. Sunday.
All of the victims suffered non-life-threatening injuries, New Orleans police said.
The victims included 10 adult men, 7 adult women, a 10-year-old girl and a 10-year-old boy, police said. At least four people were in surgery mid-afternoon Sunday and patients had been taken to four area hospitals.
New Orleans police are looking for a person in connection with the shooting.
Surveillance video of the incident was released Monday morning.
New Orleans Police Department Superintendent Ronal Serpas said one of the shooters appeared to be a dark-skinned man, 18-22 years old, with short hair and wearing a white shirt and blue jean shorts.
A person fitting that description was seen in the surveillance video released Monday morning.

Wal-Mart breaks Hostess's embargo on TwinkiesThe Associated Press | July 14,2013AP Photo
Jo Mullen picks up a box of Twinkies at Walmart in Bristol, Pa., on Friday. Hostess asked retailers not to start selling them until Monday, the official return date for the snack.NEW YORK Wal-Mart has made Twinkies available this weekend, even though Hostess says it asked retailers to wait until Monday to start selling the spongy yellow snack cakes.
The worlds largest retailer announced Friday that the cakes were available at about 1,600 stores and that about 3,000 of its 4,000 U.S. stores should have them by this morning.
Thats a day before the July 15 return Hostess has trumpeted in its marketing.
Hostess said it shipped out products to give retailers the same opportunity to display the product Monday.
Hostess has not, and is not, giving any particular retailer exclusivity or preference to have products first and is making a great effort to fulfill orders equally and timely to everyone, the company said in a statement.
But Wal-Mart spokeswoman Veronica Marshall said Friday that Wal-Mart is the only retailer shes aware of thats already selling them on a national level.
The product was in our distribution centers, and we went out early, she said.
Representatives for Kroger and Safeway did not immediately respond to say when they would start selling Twinkies.
Marshall had earlier said that Wal-Mart had worked with Hostess to make the snack cakes available early exclusively. But she later clarified the statement to say that Wal-Mart had worked with Hostess to make special packaging with the words First Batch available exclusively at its stores.
By late this week, Wal-Mart says its stores will also have Hostess Mini Muffins and fried Fruit Pies, Marshall said. Coffee Cakes, Ho Hos, Orange CupCakes, Suzy Qs and Zingers will be available by August. Sno-Balls will arrive in the fall.
The new owners of Hostess have said the company will be freezing Twinkies for about 10 percent of its retailers upon request, which lets stores stamp their own expiration dates on the cakes. Marshall said Wal-Mart isnt one of the retailers that will get frozen Twinkies.
Notably, Hostess has also said that Twinkies now have a shelf life of 45 days. Thats nearly three weeks longer than the 26 days the previous company had stated for the cakes. Hostess says the changes were made under the previous owners and longer-lasting cakes hit shelves right before the company went out of business.
Hostess went bankrupt late last year after years of management turmoil and a standoff with its second-biggest union. The company sold off its various brands, with Twinkies and other Hostess cakes going to private equity firms Metroupoulos & Co. and Apollo Global Management, which are known for fixing up ailing brands them selling them off for a profit.
Marshall declined to say how Hostess cake sales were performing at Wal-Mart stores before the bankruptcy. The retailer also sells Little Debbie cakes, which are made by McKee Foods Corp, and Tastykake, which is made by Flowers Foods. Wal-Mart also sells store-brand versions of the cakes.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A new report from a commission that studied the cost, availability and quality of...

Research shows that everyone in your orbit can have a big influence on how much weight you gain or lose. Ensure that those closest to you tip the scale in your favor by following these simple guidelines.
Weight Loss With Your Best Friend
A study in The New England Journal of Medicine found that a woman's friends may increase her odds of gaining weight by 57 percent. "Women tend to match each other's behavior at the table," says Atlanta nutritionist Marisa Moore, RD. Let your pal order first -- she'll feel pressure to set a good example, and you'll likely follow her lead. And don't invite your whole circle -- a recent study in the journal Appetite found that folks who lunched with four friends averaged 150 calories more per meal than those who dined with three.
Weight Loss With Your Dog
Walking your pooch will shrink your paunch. In a study at the University of Missouri-Columbia, volunteers who got 30 minutes of leash time five times a week dropped an average of 14 pounds in a year. On bad-weather days, play indoor games, like chasing your dog up and down the stairs, to help burn up his energy and your lunchtime burrito, suggests Robert Kushner, MD, coauthor of Fitness Unleashed! A Dog and Owner's Guide to Losing Weight and Gaining Health Together.
Weight Loss With Your Partner
Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill found that women who live with a romantic partner increase their risk of becoming obese by 63 percent, and those who marry more than double it. But couples also have an easier time taking weight off: Duke University researchers discovered that people were 50 percent more likely to start exercising if their partner joined them. Get your partner to work up a sweat with you by bike riding, running, or ice-skating. And try cooking together at home. An FDA report found that eating out more than five times a week (which many couples have been known to do) adds about 290 calories on average to your daily diet -- that's the equivalent of 30 pounds a year!
Weight Loss With Your Coworkers
A study in Eating Behaviors found that when coworkers teamed up to lose weight, they were more likely to exercise and dropped more pounds early on. Ask your workplace to start an official fitness-incentive program. Studies have shown that they encourage employees to set and meet weekly fitness goals while also increasing productivity. Or kick off your own Biggest Loser-style competition complete with weigh-ins and lunch-hour challenges like power walks, spin classes, and yoga sessions.

Resort's radio ads leave a bad taste for some
Some residents and organizations in central Vermont are objecting to radio ads by Jay Peak in which a 9-year-old girl talks about drinking beer.
The ads are part of the resorts Relive New Moments campaign. In them, the child says, What happened to us? Remember? We were going to take charge this winter. We were going to ski and ride and play in the snow, a lot of snow. The most snow anywhere. We were going to go to concerts and eat more poutine and less fiber. We were going to drink Tram Ale, learn to surf inside a big water park, then drink more Tram Ale.
Jay Peak Tram Ale is a beer brewed by the Long Trail Brewing Co.
Berlin resident Mary Kay Commins said she first heard the ad about a month ago.
I honestly dont know what the point of the ad is, as far as what the (childs) role in it is, she said. All Im hearing is these are kids saying they want to drink beer and vow to drink more beer.
Commins said she was sitting in her car with her 14-year-old twins waiting for the school bus Thursday listening to a local radio station when the ad came on again. Commins had told her children about the ad, but she said her kids may have thought she was exaggerating until they heard it for themselves. She said both her children were surprised by the ad and thought it wasnt right.
Commins said she doesnt understand why the resort would use an ad in which kids talk about alcohol given the states substance abuse issues.
In light of addictions that are plaguing Vermont right now, I think its inappropriate to use children to sell alcohol in an ad thats selling family fun destinations, Commins said.
She was alluding to Gov. Peter Shumlins State of the State address last month in which he said the state is facing a rising tide of opiate addiction and drug-related crime spreading across the state.
JJ Toland, the director of communications for the resort, said the ads arent about condoning children drinking alcohol, but about the 9-year-old inner child of a 40-year-old woman who is reflecting back and realizing its time to be young and fun again.
He said the resort hasnt heard any of the concerns Commins expressed over the ad and that all of the feedback has been positive.
However, Ann Gilbert, director of the nonprofit substance abuse prevention organization Central Vermont New Directions Coalition, agreed with Commins. Gilbert said she heard about the ad a couple of weeks ago when she was contacted by the Department of Health, which she said had been contacted by some community members who had concerns about the ad.
Gilbert said her organization has worked for the past 15 years to decrease underage drinking. Part of the way it battles underage drinking is by asking stores to eliminate or reduce their alcohol advertising and to move beer away from the milk cooler.
Statistics have shown that the more exposure (children) have to alcohol advertising, the more likely they are to start drinking at an earlier age, she said.
Surveys show that underage drinking is declining.
According to a 2013 study by the Department of Health on risky behavior by students in middle and high school, among 14,639 middle school students surveyed, 18 percent reported drinking more than a few sips of alcohol, down from 22 percent in 2011. Thirty-eight percent of the middle schoolers perceived alcohol to be easy to obtain, down from 41 percent in 2011.
Among the 21,746 high school students surveyed, 59 percent said they had ever drunk alcohol, down from 62 percent in 2011, and 33 percent said they had had a drink in the past 30 days, down from 35 percent.
Those numbers arent eye popping, but Gilbert said the effort has been years in the making because in 1993, 53 percent of high school students said they had had a drink of alcohol in the past 30 days.
Gilbert fears Jay Peaks ad may help undue that work.
I think Jay Peak is a fabulous resort in our state, she said. I think they have a lot going for them, and I think its essential that Jay Peak have personal relationships with its customers. I hope that once they realize that this ad is misleading, maybe uncomfortable, that I would hope that they would make the right decision to pull the ad and find different ways to appropriately promote their resort and their product of Tram Ale without it crossing this line.
Toland said the resort has no plans to stop running the ads or to change them in any way.
We love that people are talking about the spot, he said. The whole point of marketing in general is to get people talking about you.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A new report from a commission that studied the cost, availability and quality of...

RCR Bristol Rewind ... In last Sunday's Sprint Cup Series event at Bristol Motor Speedway, Menard (ninth) collected his second consecutive top-10 finish of the 2013 season while Harvick crossed the finish line 14th and Burton 32nd, after being involved in an multi-car accident on lap 54.

No. 27 CertainTeed/Menards Chevrolet SS
Event Preview Fact Sheet
This Week's CertainTeed/Menards Chevrolet ... Paul Menard will pilot chassis No. 414 at Auto Club Speedway. This No. 27 Chevrolet SS is a new addition to the Richard Childress Racing stable this season.
Menard in Fontana ... Menard has 10 starts at Auto Club Speedway. His best start of 15th and best finish of 16th both came in 2011. The Wisconsin native has completed 2,241 of 2,279 laps attempted (98.3 percent) at the two-mile oval, leading three of them.

Don't Miss Your Chance to See Menard at the Team Chevy Stage ... Fans can participate in a question-and-answer session with Menard on Saturday, March 23 at 11:15 a.m. Pacific Time at the Team Chevy Stage, located in the midway at Auto Club Speedway.
Race Rewind ... Starting 27th, Menard finished 19th in last year's Auto Club 400 when the scheduled 200-lap event was called complete on lap 129 because of rain.
Menard's Thoughts on Racing at Auto Club Speedway:
"Speeds are really high at Auto Club Speedway and the tires fall off quickly. One of our biggest challenges will be trying to make the tires last as long as we can during a fuel run on the CertainTeed/Menards Chevrolet. With tire wear we can move around a lot on the track and have multiple racing grooves. It's all about lane selection at Auto Club as the racing groove is constantly changing. In the beginning of a run we can typically run the bottom groove, but as the tires fall off momentum is important. The higher we can run the more momentum we can carry and we don't have to be as aggressive with the throttle. We had a good finish at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, another intermediate track, so hopefully that will help us this weekend in Fontana."
Kevin Harvick
No. 29 Jimmy John's Chevrolet SS Event Preview Fact Sheet
This Week's Jimmy John's Chevrolet at Auto Club Speedway ... Kevin Harvick will pilot chassis No. 378 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable in the Auto Club 400.

Did you learn anything about the new car at Las Vegas Motor Speedway that you can use at Auto Club Speedway?
"I don't think so. I think you have two totally different styles of track between Las Vegas Motor Speedway and Auto Club Speedway. You'll take the same family of car that we would race at Las Vegas to California, but that is really the only similarity. Auto Club Speedway has become pretty worn out over the last several years. It's a lot of fun to race on and move around, you can go four or five wide in the corners and down the straightaways. You just have to really pay attention to what your car is doing, to try and get it balanced throughout the whole run because there is so much fall off from start to finish."
Why do you think Auto Club Speedway has been such a good track for you throughout the years?
"We've just figured some things out there, where I want to be on the race track and the team has learned what I'm looking for in the car. To be able to go to a race track where you expect to race for the win is always fun. It seems like year after year you go to different styles of race tracks and the evolution of the car or the setups or tires change. Sometime you're on and sometimes you're off, but is seems like Auto Club Speedway has been a very consistent race track for us to be competitive."
Jeff Burton
No. 31 Caterpiller Chevrolet SS
Event Preview Fact Sheet
This Week's No. 31 Caterpillar Chevrolet SS at Auto Club Speedway... Jeff Burton will race chassis No. 416 this weekend at Auto Club Speedway. This is a brand new No. 31 Chevrolet that will see its first on-track action during Friday's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series practice session.
Burton in California ... Burton has 23 starts at Auto Club Speedway with one pole award (1999), six top-five finishes, seven top-10 finishes and led 127 laps.
Featured Caterpillar Dealer ... Johnson Machinery will be featured on the deck lid of the No. 31 Caterpillar Chevrolet this weekend at Auto Club Speedway.
Johnson Machinery is Caterpillar's only Platinum level dealer, serving Riverside and San Bernardino counties since 1940. Johnson offers the complete line of Caterpillar construction equipment products, new and used parts, service and rentals. Headquartered in Riverside, they have locations in Fontana, Indio, Victorville and Temecula.
Race Rewind 2012 ... Burton and the No. 31 Caterpillar Chevrolet team finished 22nd in the 2012 Auto Club 400 after NASCAR officials shortened the scheduled 200-lap event to 129 laps due to rain.
Drivers like Auto Club Speedway because the surface is worn out. Is that track harder on the drivers or crews?
"I think it is harder on the crews. In my opinion, tracks like Auto Club Speedway are why this new Gen-6 car was built. It is a slick two-mile race track. How do you make the racing more fun to watch? The decision was made to make more grip. If we leave there without seeing a better race than we have in the past, it will be disappointing. In my opinion, that race track is exactly what this car was built around."
Why do you think drivers like old worn-out surfaces like Auto Club Speedway?
"I don't think all drivers do, just the ones that run well there do. It's fun to slide around and not have a lot of grip as long as everyone else is doing it too. It's fun to know you are on the limit with the car sliding around. It's a fun way to race."

Sense the atmosphere and feel the noise as you step towards the decks. The lights are low as you mix your beats but something bright catches your eye. Kisai RPM, revolutionary timing.
A DJ Themed USB Rechargeable LED Watch
Now in gold with red LEDs, this limited edition version of the popular Kisai RPM watch from Tokyoflash Japan will really make you stand out.
The curved, smoked lens that runs around the edge of the disc creates a subtle reflection before you touch the button to illuminate the rings of digital tube LEDs that display the time.
Simple to read at a glance, hours are shown on the inner ring in the same position as hours on a clock. Five minute intervals are shown on the outer ring in the same position as minutes on a clock. Four single minutes are positioned at the top of the display along side the AM/PM indicator. Lights showing the current time will flash for several seconds to direct you.
For more information, take a look at the video demonstration above. A PDF user manual is also featured above which includes more detailed information about this watch.
Turntable Style LED Light Up Animation
As well as time, RPM has a cool light-up animation which sends lights spinning around the display once every 15 minutes from 6pm to midnight.
Kisai RPM is USB rechargeable via your computer. One full charge will take 3.5 hours and each charge will last 1 month. There are 300 charges in one battery and the battery is replaceable.
In February 2010, Tokyoflash opened its Design Studio Blog to showcase its concept designs and request ideas for new watch designs from fans. The idea for Kisai RPM was submitted by James Fursedon and was voted as one of the most popular designs by fans. This is the first concept submitted by a fan to become reality. Find out more about the original concept here.
Kisai RPM is a unisex watch and has a fully adjustable strap to fit large or small wrists.
Like all watches from Tokyoflash Japan it is a limited edition design which means that it is guaranteed to be an original watch that not many other people own.
Blog reader & watch designer James Fursedon, from the UK says:
I'm really pleased with the way this watch has turned out, the design team have done an amazing job. I have no artistic skills whatsoever but had a concept in my head that I hoped would be worthy of being featured on the blog. I sent in a few short paragraphs of how I thought the watch should look and work and kept my fingers tightly crossed!
I was so excited to see my concept on the design studio blog, I recognised it immediately but was blown away by the little touches and design flares that had been added to make it so special. Now, 9 months later, to see my watch idea in production and on sale from my favourite watch shop is unbelievable, a dream come true!
Thank you Tokyoflash, thank you to everyone who commented and voted on the blog and thank you to every one who buys one! I can't wait to see a stranger wearing this watch and will surely buy them a pint! - James

A Tale of Two Wins – Angels vs. Blue Jays
I'll spare you the unnecessary Dickens parody. Suffice to say this weekend's games against the Blue Jays were two very different wins for the Angels, one ugly but ultimately effective and the other, as pretty a pitching clinic as one could ask for.
Saturday's game was quite the weird one. When I spoke longingly of single admission double headers a post or two ago, this is not quite what I had in mind. Matt Palmer had a rough start and wasn't quite able to complete five innings. This is a shame. I really wanted to see him prove himself. Then we proceeded to work through all seven pitchers in the bullpen with mixed results before Dan Haren – yes, that Dan Haren, from the starting rotation – finished the game and earned the win in the 14th inning. Can I just say, this is why I adore Dan Haren. He's old school, stepping in to do whatever the team needs when the team needs it. I believe he would still make his start tomorrow if the team let him…and I wish they would. Early pitching woes aside, this game was a great battle of the bats for four innings – we were up, then the Jays and so on. Then the runs dried up and hijinks ensued for the remaining ten innings as bad base running, walked batters, butterfingered position players, outright errors and stranded runners abounded on both sides.
There were good plays too, successful pick offs from Jeff Mathis and Rich Thompson, an out at home plate, etc… But the weird overshadowed the good in my opinion and I do not share the announcers' enthusiasm for the bullpen's performance in this game. Yes, they were troopers and prevented runs from scoring for 10 innings, which is no slouch, but they did it with too many walks, too many instances of bases loaded and too many innings that barely ended in disaster. They pulled it off, which is an improvement, but they way they pulled it off makes me question their ability to pull holds and saves off in the future. In the end, the Angels prevailed because of a, shall we say, questionable yet favorable runner's interference call that prevented the Jays from scoring in the 13th, two timely hits in the 14th and the fact the Peter Bourjos is lightening fast. Bourjos hit a two-out double and Maicer Izturis brought him home with single. But it was Bourjos' amazing speed, beating out Juan Bautista's strong, quick throw to the plate by centimeters that really won the game. There is a reason this play was number 9 on MLB's plays of the week this evening.
Sunday's game, on the other hand, was fantastic. Jered Weaver pitched a gem of a start, beating his own single game strikeout record of 12 Ks with 15 Ks in seven and 2/3rds innings. He even managed a pickoff at first base, unusual for Weaver whose long limbs and cross body delivery don't always lend themselves to catching the runner off the bag. It was truly a commanding performance all around and just what the bullpen, completely wiped out from the previous evening's 14 inning marathon game, needed. Hisanori Takehashi came in to get the crucial last out in the 8th inning and Fernando Rodney, closer by default based on the number of pitches he and the other bullpen pitchers threw yesterday, looked like a closer today: three batters, 12 pitches, three outs and done. I am loathe to trust him again, but must give credit where credit is due. He looked good today. Unlike so many of Weaver's starts last season, he had run support this game, including a Peter Bourjos two RBI triple in the 4th inning. I actually think that for most batters, this would only have been a double and that Mark Trumbo might have stuck around at third if Bourjos wasn't on the verge of lapping him, so once again Fleet Pete makes quite the impact.
Any Angels win is a good day in my book, but I really hope to see more like Sunday's this season than Saturday's if at all possible. Of course, if winning this season winds up meaning a lot of 14th inning stretches, I'd rather sing extra Take Me Out to the Ballgames than the alternative. Saturday's abuse of the bullpen (Of? By? Little of column A, little of column B?) has already had a huge impact on the 25-man roster. The Angels optioned Michael Kohn and Kevin Jepson down to the Salt Lake City Bees, activated Scott Downs from the DL and brought youngster Tyler Chatwood up from the Bees. The 22-year old Chatwood, another one of the local prospects the Angels like to recruit, is supposed to get his first major league start against the Indians on Monday in order to give Haren an extra day's rest. I am interested to see how this turns out. I saw flashes of brilliance in Chatwood during Spring Training but also the need for a lot more work. Of course, this means I will get see Haren, one of my two favorite pitchers, start on Tuesday when Seth and I have tickets to the game again…assuming the Angels can wrap up Monday in a mere nine innings and he doesn't close again, of course.😉

It's still early, so games like Saturday are going to happen. With Weaver on the mound, games like Sunday will happen, too, hopefully more than not. He's a special pitcher. I love the Bees, by the way.
I think I'm getting a man-crush on Weaver. There was a time (the 2006 playoffs) where I had one on his brother too, but Jered is much, much more talented. And, as they say, a win's a win's a win. I'd like for my team to get one of those.
Gotta agree, a win's a win, no matter what it looks like.🙂 Though of course I'm sure everyone would prefer good, crisp play, but no matter…
Have fun at the game tonight!
Mike – Yeah, Weaver is one of my favorite pitchers…in case you couldn't tell. One of these days, we're going to get to a Bees game. I think it would be a lot of fun.
Jeff – Weaver is certainly very man-crushable – talent, clutch and old school bulldoggish-ness. What's not to like? Now when his brother was good, he was very good indeed, but Jeff Weaver's talent just seemed to burn out all of the sudden. The Cards will start winning. It's still early April.
Sue – Very true, and I will take all wins I can get which is good because historically So Cal teams tend to excel at the ugly kind, LOL. Thanks, I will!
— Kristen
Watched the last four innings of the game tonight…..Haren was masterful. Guy was throwing first pitch breaking balls for strikes time and again. It's hard for any hitter to beat that, and when they do hit it….T Hunter runs deep into the gap and makes a leaping catch at the wall. Your team looks real good.

Weaver has always been *that* starter for the Angels. The one Scioscia can rely on to take a series or pull the team of of a slump. He hasn't been fool proof over the years, but when Weaver is
"on," I'd rather not be rooting against him.
– Randy
Russel – Wasn't he amazing! This was one of the best games I have even attended. Haren was beyond lights out and then, yeah, Torii, what a fantastic catch! We were standing up and cheering practically the whole game.
Randy – You always have such a wonderful way with words! And this season with Weaver and Haren the rotation is really something special…well, until we pass Santana and then we're praying for a heck of a lot of rain, or at least guys to heal up and get off the DL.

What's the best Christmas present you ever got?
For an Alabama father, his son delivered the most precious gift this Christmas – a ticket to the BCS national championship.
It was a heartwarming moment at the house of Daniel Buckhannan when he surprised his father, Don, with tickets to the title game between Alabama and Notre Dame. At first, Don was already psyched after unwrapping a black fedora, a replica of the hat that Crimson Tide coach Bear Bryant used to wear.
"Oh, I like it," his dad said, trying the hat on.
But when Daniel asked Don to check what's inside the hat, the ecstatic father turned emotional upon seeing tickets to the January 7 BCS Championship game. An Alabama fan himself, Daniel understood that his dad also dreamed of going to the title game, although the cheapest ticket costs $975.
"We're going to the game, Pop! We are going to the game!" Daniel told his dad, who was shedding manly tears over the unexpected present.
"Was blessed to be able to give my dad a ticket to the championship game," Daniel wrote on the YouTube video.

'History of Invulnerability' tracks Superman and his creator
"The History of Invulnerability," which the Milwaukee Repertory Theater begins performing April 8, considers both the greatest American comic-book hero ever, Superman, and one of the guys who created him, writer Jerry Siegel. Set in Siegel's mind on the last day of his life, David Bar Katz's play delves into Superman's roots in Siegel's experience and imagination as a Jewish American.
That's not a new theme — Larry Tye's book "Superman: The High-Flying History of American's Most Enduring Hero" covers similar territory. But Bar Katz vividly dramatizes Siegel's angst about Hitler's attempted extermination of European Jews — and Siegel's desire and inability to fight that injustice with his imaginary hero. At one point in the play, Siegel tells Superman, "Do you understand now why I made you? You're Samson. You're the strongest Jew who ever lived." The serious tone of the play, including some scenes set in concentration camps, make "History of Invulnerability" a show for people 16 years and older. »Read Full Article(1)
Adam Begley's bio makes strong case for rereading 'Updike'
A 20th-century American writer's biography often follows a familiar pattern: years of learning and struggle, followed by one or more breakthroughs, then success and honors, with various speed bumps of alcoholism, drug addiction or mental illness.
Adam Begley's "Updike" follows little of that template. A golden child, John Updike began, to borrow Mike McCarthy's phrase, stacking success upon success at an early age. The small-town Pennsylvania lad earned a full-ride scholarship to Harvard. He was first published in The New Yorker weeks after graduation and became a staff writer there at age 23. He earned more money than he could spend, and won most awards short of the Nobel Prize. »Read Full Article

Donoghue's 'Frog Music' frequently croaks off-key
On a sultry September night during San Francisco's 1876 heat wave, the colorful and cross-dressing Jenny Bonnet — a 27-year-old French immigrant who rode about town on a new-fangled bicycle, always packed heat and made her living catching frogs for local restaurants — was shot dead in bed, in a room she was sharing with 24-year-old prostitute Blanche Beunon.
That's how Emma Donoghue begins "Frog Music," her first novel since the widely acclaimed "Room" (2010). A splice between historical fiction and a crime novel that unfolds through third-person narration shading toward Blanche's point of view, "Frog Music" toggles between events culminating in Jenny's murder and ensuing efforts to puzzle out what happened. »Read Full Article

A discovered history of the Journal Sentinel art collection
I've had a passing knowledge of the artworks owned by the Journal Sentinel from simply spotting them in hallways and meeting rooms over the years. But while digging into our archives in preparation for some visitors, I discovered a half-forgotten history about how the company I work for has supported Wisconsin artists, what the local press for years used to call "Badger artists."
When the building opened in 1924, the Milwaukee Journal opened an art gallery on the second floor with big leather couches and fringed lamps. It was described in news clippings from the 1920s through the '80s as the only art gallery run by a newspaper in America or the world. »Read Full Article(3)

Michigan moves to No. 1 in AP pollAP Photo
Michigan coach John Beilein talks with Trey Burke during the second half of Sundays 74-60 victory over Illinois in Champaign, Ill.
ANN ARBOR, Mich. John Beilein acknowledged Monday afternoon that he had quite a few text messages on his phone.
The Michigan coach just hadnt checked them yet.
Ive been absorbed in Northwestern tape, Beilein said.
The Wolverines are No. 1 in The Associated Press college basketball poll for the first time since their Fab Five days 20 years ago, but Beilein is determined not to get carried away with all this recognition.
Michigan took over the top spot after a 74-60 victory at Illinois on Sunday night. Next up on the schedule is Northwestern, and theres no reason for the routine to change.
Our goal at Michigan is to be No. 1 in the Big Ten. When you achieve that honor, you will have a chance at the national championship, Beilein said. All through the year polls will spark great interest among college basketball fans everywhere and that is always good. Our coaches and players, however, will remain focused on our goals of improving daily and competing for the championship within our conference.
Michigan is doing pretty well in that regard, too. The Wolverines tied for the Big Ten title last year, and theyre deadlocked atop the league right now with No. 3 Indiana. The Hoosiers host Michigan on Saturday night.
Michigan received 51 first-place votes from the 65-member national media panel Monday. Kansas moved up one spot to No. 2 and had 13 first-place votes. They are the only one-loss teams in the poll. Indiana, Florida, which drew the other first-place vote, and Duke complete the top five.
Duke, which was No. 1 last week, dropped after being routed 90-63 by Miami in the third-worst defeat by a top-ranked team. It was the second straight week the No. 1 team lost.
The Wolverines advanced from No. 2 to become No. 1 for the fourth time. They were at the top for 10 weeks in 1964-65, eight weeks in 1976-77 and three weeks at the start of 1992-93, the Fab Fives second and final season together.
That season, Chris Webber, Juwan Howard, Jalen Rose, Jimmy King and Ray Jackson made it to the national championship game for the second straight year.
Jackson now lives in Texas, but he roots for the Wolverines from afar.
Im excited about it and Im very proud of those boys, Jackson said in a telephone interview Monday. Im really excited and pleased about what Coach Beilein has done to turn the program around.
Michigan fell on hard times after the Fab Five moved on, in part because of NCAA sanctions related to that era. Beilein took over in 2007 and made the NCAA tournament in his second season with the Wolverines, but the programs rise didnt really begin until two years ago.
In January 2011, Michigan was 1-6 in Big Ten play when the Wolverines shocked Michigan State in East Lansing. Michigan took off after that victory, reaching the NCAA tournament that year. The following season, the Wolverines won a share of their first conference title since 1986.
Now the Wolverines are national title contenders thanks to guards Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway and a talented group of freshmen although the toughest tests are still to come.
After hosting Northwestern on Wednesday night, Michigan faces a four-game stretch against Indiana, Ohio State, Wisconsin and Michigan State.
What Id like to see is what weve already seen, Beilein said. That theyre on a mission to be the best that this team can possibly be.
Michigan is the second Big Ten team to be No. 1 this season. Indiana was the preseason No. 1 and stayed there for the first five weeks of the regular season. Duke moved in for four weeks before Louisville and the Blue Devils both held it for one week.
Rounding out the top 10 are No. 6 Syracuse, followed by Gonzaga, Arizona, Butler and Oregon. Miami rode its win over Duke to an 11-place jump in the poll, from 25th to 14th.
Fourteen ranked teams, including half of the top 10, lost at least one game last week.
The AP Top 25
The top 25 teams in The Associated Press college basketball poll, with first-place votes in parentheses, records through Jan. 27, total points based on 25 points for a first-place vote through one point for a 25th-place vote and last weeks ranking:

Shumlin administration seeks level-funded budget
MONTPELIER Top officials in the administration of Gov. Peter Shumlin have directed the heads of agencies across state government to deliver level-funded spending plans for next year.
In a recent memorandum to executive branch managers, the administration asks for fiscal year 2015 budget proposals that dont exceed allocations for the current fiscal year.
Given contractual pay raises for state employees, the rising cost of health insurance and inflationary jumps in the cost of doing government business generally, Finance Commissioner James Reardon said Thursday the level-funding directive would require either cuts to programs or services, or cost-saving operational reforms.
Were going to have (increases in employee compensation) and other upward pressures in the budget, he said. But theyre going to have to come back with corresponding reductions in other areas in order to come back with a general fund appropriation that is equal to their fiscal year 2014 appropriation.
Reardon said the exercise is the first step in a long budget process and that the guidance issued to agency heads wont necessarily result in the cuts that a level-funded budget would inflict.
This is a starting point for having budget discussions with agencies and departments, he said. And this may not reflect our ending point.
But with Shumlin having made clear his refusal to raise the income, sales or other broad-based taxes next year, Reardon said, fiscal discipline will need to be rigorous.
The governor has been very clear that hes not going to raise broad-based taxes, so thats one of the parameters we have to work with in developing the governors recommended budget that well present to the Legislature in January, Reardon said.
He said the administration is leaving it largely up to agency heads to decide where, and how severely, to reduce line items. But the budget guidance issued to managers Sept. 24 says that preference should be given to the elimination of entire program(s) and/or service(s) rather than across-the-board reductions that jeopardize the stability and sustainability of multiple programs and/or services.
Reardon said, The advantage of that is if you start cutting different programs and services to the point where they arent running effectively, then arent we better off just eliminating something altogether rather than having a number of things not being run appropriately?
The administration has asked managers to list their funding proposals in order of priority, and Reardons office will meet with them individually in the coming weeks to fine-tune proposals. Budget proposals are due back to the Department of Finance and Management beginning today.
While the budget guidance deals only with general fund expenditures, Reardon said department heads need to consider the prospect of reductions in federal revenue as they go about their budget planning.
According to the budget memo, state budget writers should not assume that federal reductions will be covered with increased general funds.
The memo says, Rather, you should assume that these programs will not be replaced unless you can demonstrate they meet a critical state policy goal.

People love the beach. For whatever reason, many humans just feel drawn to the shore. "The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever," Jacques Cousteau said.
So even if we can't get there often, we like to visit in our minds. We linger over childhood memories of an unblemished white strand, or close our eyes for a moment when things get stressful to escape to a gently sloping dune.
Or stuck in drab cubicles, we gaze longingly at a Pacific island screensaver.
Imagine it now: Clean, uncrowded stretches of sand. Clear blue water. Cool breeze. Seagulls. Sunshine.
Indulge that fantasy a little more here with a stroll along five of the finest beaches in America.
