Former McHenry County Board member Marc Munaretto issued the following news release on Thursday:
After 14 years of service to the residents of McHenry County, Marc has retired from the County Board District 1 and he has placed his name in nomination for the position of Algonquin Township Supervisor in the February 26, 2013 Primary Election.
The Township Supervisor's primary role is prudently managing the $10,000,000 in assets that comprise Algonquin Township and the Road District. The Supervisor's responsibilities include levying taxes, managing township cash and investments, budgeting for the operations of the township and properly allocating resources to the various functions of the Township, like the property assessment function. The Supervisor is both the chief financial officer and the chief administrative officer of the Township.
Marc brings his extensive public finance and business management skills to the Township. Skills that were evidenced in his performance as the long time Chairman of the County's Finance and Audit Committee and the contribution he made to promoting fiscal policies that resulted in a Aaa credit rating from Moody's Investor Services. In addition, Marc's aggressive economic development agenda aided numerous businesses in the County both through his leadership as a Director of the McHenry County EDC but also as the chief marketer of the County's revolving loan fund and Recovery Zone Facility bonds when they were available.
Marc has chosen to run for this position: (i) to bring greater financial controls including a strategic plan for township business, (ii) to reduce the township's excessive 10 months of property taxes in a cash reserve; (iii) to implement effective budgeting and cash management; (iv) to enhance programming for seniors in the township; (v) to assist the unemployed by forming a "Jobs Club" providing our unemployed residents with a place to meet, to network, to use township technology in their job search and to obtain job search and skills assistance; and, (vi) to provide assistance to our Township Veterans by combining our efforts with the McHenry County Veteran's Assistance Commission.
Marc proposes to be a full time Supervisor and to dedicate the time to properly managing the business of the Township. The current Supervisor has experienced frequent absences during the past 4 years due to health and other issues. In her absence, two non elected personnel have been left with the task of managing the township and its $10 million in combined finances. Some of the financial issues that need more focus include: updating the Township investment policy; obtaining Board approval of the banks that may hold township funds; a clear and transparent audit policy; a well thought out business continuity plan in the event of a catastrophe that could prevent the township from operating; a plan to protect the computer based accounting, investment and property assessment records of the Township; and, controlled authority to have officers of the township sign checks in the event the Supervisor is incapacitated.
The Township needs a better and much more contemporary focus on financial disciplines and improved budgeting methodologies. The current Supervisor, for example, increased expenses in the 2012-2013 budget by $300,000 over last year even as tax payers in the Township have been begging for relief from high taxes. In addition, property tax cash reserves in township funds have continued to grow and are now at about 10 months. The need to carry cash in reserve to pay for almost a full year's expenses is not appreciated by overtaxed township taxpayers. And yet, the current Supervisor levied another 2.65% tax INCREASE in November, 2012.
If elected, Marc's focus will be:
• Lowering taxes by freezing the Levy
• Lowering the cost of government by preparing a strategic plan that focuses on where our electors want township government to be in 3 or 5 years
• Examining and evaluating core services of the township and programs that pay for themselves
• Providing services the community wants and needs, at no cost to the taxpayer such as:
• Helping the unemployed Job search and network by engaging the McHenry County Work Force Investment Board the Illinois Employment Training Center and local businesses to help unemployed Township residents obtain needed skills and jobs
• Engaging the County's Veteran Assistance Commission as an outreach to Township Veterans who deserve and are entitled to receive services from the military and the Federal government•
• Enhancing Senior programming like:
– Health and wellness, tying in with local healthcare providers like Centegra and Mercy
– Fitness
– Senior support services
• Collaborating with our local communities – exploring shared services and focusing on reducing the burden and the cost of government
• Engaging with the Community
• Making time to be involved in community associations that benefit the entire Township.

Everyone could use better credit. Here are some easy ways to better your credit score.
Time magazine and MSNBC list some easy ways you can quickly better your credit score.
9. Add an installment loan to the mix
You'll get the fastest improvement in your scores if you show you're responsible with both major kinds of credit: revolving (credit cards) and installment (personal loans, auto, mortgages and student loans).
8. Use your credit cards lightly
Racking up big balances can hurt your scores, regardless of whether you pay your bills in full each month. What's typically reported to the credit bureaus, and thus calculated into your scores, are the balances on your last statements.
7. Check your limits
Your scores might be artificially depressed if your lender is showing a lower limit than you actually have. Most credit card issuers will quickly update this information if you ask.
6. Get a copy of your credit report
Research shows that up to 80 percent of credit reports contain errors. While some won't impact your score, others can. Go to annualcreditreport.com to order a copy of your credit report for free from the three major credit reporting bureaus.
5. Don't close multiple accounts
Cutting up and canceling bunch of cards in a fit of self-imposed reform will only make your utilization ratio shoot up, and your credit score will suffer.
4. Apply only for credit you need
Experts say applying for a lot of new credit at once can hurt your score, especially if you're gearing up for a big purchase like a house or car. It's a red flag for lenders.
3. Keep long-standing accounts
The length of your credit history counts for 15 percent of your score, so keep your oldest card active as long as you don't have to pay an annual fee.
2. Don't have too much debt
How much you owe makes up 30 percent of your score, and too much revolving debt (i.e. credit cards) will burn you, so try to pay down balances as much as possible.
1. Make your payments on time
Your payment history makes up 35 percent of your score, so don't be a sloppy payer. Fortunately, recent activity is given more weight than past transactions so you can make up for a spotty bill history.

Some back ground info: My son is 5months and healthy and a big boy weighing in at 20lbs. He nurses on demand and we are currently doing BLS but nothing really makes it to his mouth. We have thought about baby food but as of now only a bite or two has been given. Also, he just got his first tooth in on November 30th, which I think is when he started this new pattern. Our normal day goes about like this:
Then between 4pm-9pm it's anywhere between 2-3 sessions
Bedtime is at 10pm and that's the last session till morning.
NOWHe nurses @5am--7am--skips the 9am feeding and nurses closer to 11:30am!! Is this ok?? Will my supply take a beating? Should I just leave it up to him or offer the breast?

I was having the same problem but discovered on accident that if I just go back to the song, after it gave me the error, it would start playing. Then I just had to do the same thing to next song.
I don't know why but it fixed it for the songs and everything else I've added since.

Same issue for me.
I contacted MS support via chat who advised that it is an issue with Nokia phones only.
She tried a few things including getting me to 'sync' my microsoft account, and also deleted my subscription completely then sent me a 1 month coupon code for activation.
None of this worked and the only solution given was to perform a hard reset - which I was not going to do as there is no true backup for WP8 - only a basic download same apps again feature.
Like some others on this thread though, I waited a few days and it just started working again. My access stopped working on 2 Feb and my subscription was due for renewal on 3 Feb. It started working today 6 Feb so took about 4 days.
Best of luck to others and yet another reason why I can't recommend this service to others - will just have to keep waiting for Spotify.
I'm facing this issue right now. My 30 days free-trial ended on Feb/16, and I've renewed it last week. All downloaded music were invalid now. I don't want to Wipe the phone cause there're so many apps and games need to re-download, and the profile in the apps and games won't get backed up. Someone told me that it will auto fix in few days. So I'm just waiting it "works" again.
I've started getting this error message today. My 30 day trial runs out tomorrow (23rd) so i decided to renew today so i wouldn't get any loss of service (ha!). Now I can't play any downloaded songs and it seems that the best thing to do is just wait and it should sort itself out?. I don't fancy resetting the phone. Hopefully it does sort itself out and quickly

This will be no help to those wedded to Xbox music, but I just wanted to let everyone know that there is an (arguably better) alternative out there in the form of Rhapsody. Their WP app was awful until a few weeks ago, but they just updated it and it is really fantastic now. Rhapsody also works with many, many more devices than Xbox music (like my TiVo and my Blu-ray player) so it's a better deal overall.

Ended up get in touch with support last night (online), explained the problem, got transferred to another advisor who new more about zune.and DRM
They got me to restart phone and check that the date and time was correct, then sync the microsoft account in email and account settings. Downloaded a song and got the same message.
Then they said they were going to "pause" the subscription for a few minutes and restart it in the hope that it would refresh itself. Restarted phone, checked time/date and synced account again, still the same. Was then told that we only had one option left, a hard reset. So did the reset and when everything was back up downloaded another song and it played back fine.
So I am able to play music on the move again but had to redownload all my apps and obviously lost all the settings for them and any progress on games.

I'd like to point out that this issue isn't just about whether or not your Zune Pass/Xbox Music Pass is current. If you use the Windows Phone 8 Sync tool, the DRM gets screwed up on the WP8 device. Why do I know this? Because if you delete the track or album and download from the store directly to your device, it plays just fine. I emplore those that have issues like this, or this exact issue, please visit the Microsoft Answers forums (specifically this thread: Master List Of Issues With XBox Music On WP8 - Microsoft Community) and provide your comments. Do read the first post, and comment in the other threads it links to, and PLEASE do click on the "ME TOO" link a the first thread instructs.

My trial on music pass ended today and I have just run into the same issue on my desktop , tablet and lumia 920. Downloaded music no longer plays but streaming is fine. I suspect this is something to with a Microsoft batch process that they run to update trials to paid accounts, which is why some people are reporting the problem going away after a couple of days. I am going to sit tight and see whether this clears itself rather than focusing on phone resets etc. THIS IS NOT A PHONE ISSUE

So I have spoken to Microsoft support about this and they fixed my problem. All downloaded music is now playing fine on W8 and WP8.
I spoke through IM with their support team and they were excellent. They understood the problem, admitted that the conversion of a 1 month trial to the paid membership is the issue and asked for permission to cancel my current membership, which I gave. They then refunded the monthly fee and asked me to set up a new account 'after the next 30 minutes'. My phone details were taken and I was given a ticket number and sent an email confirming who I spoke with and that they will be looking into my account to get this fixed. 24hrs later everything is fine.
The service, in terms of clarity about what would happen next and the sense they were making a real effort to have me do as little as possible to resolve the issue, was first class. Really happy that this issue is fixed. My advice to anyone on a trial is to cancel it before it ends and take out a brand new paid subscription. If you already facing the issue contact xbox live support and they will fix it for you - and they are not pretending this is not an issue!
Well done Miscrosoft - I can live with glitches if the company I buy from are willing to do what they can to sort the situation quickly.
I also got in touch with the XBox support people through chat. My free trial ended today (I was downloading and listening just fine last night)... and all of the sudden today none of my downloaded music would play. After reading these posts I contacted the support. I explained the problem and also referenced this thread (and the advice to wait a few days/that the problem seems to be with the subscription). They asked a few questions to get a better understanding, and then said they agreed it was a subscription problem and would cancel my current charges and I could renew once I saw the cancellation on my account. The turnover was really fast (about 10 minutes later I had a refund for the recent 1 month pass). I bought another one month pass and powered my phone off for about 3 minutes. Now everything works!!! All of my previous downloads work as well as new ones. The support I got was so great and I recommend this as the #1 solution for anyone having this problem, rather than just waiting it out (which probably works too, but is just annoying). I am very impressed with Microsoft's ability to address this problem quickly!
Hi all,
I've been having this DRM issue for almost a week now - in my frustration I posted a new thread about it on the 18th, rather than searching for similar issues. I'll repost here what I typed up on the 18th:I was trying to download a couple of albums on Tuesday night, and about halfway through, something went wrong; it stopped the downloads, said it couldn't access the store, and the tracks that did make it through wouldn't play - they gave me the good old media usage rights error (no error code). I am able to access the store now, but since Tuesday night I've not been able to play any of my downloaded XBM content. I can still stream, and, bizarrely, download. So I can download a track, but not play it. Brilliant.
After trying a soft-reset about four or five times to no avail, I spoke to live support yesterday, and the guy told me that it's because my free trial ran out. So I told him I've been subbing for over two years, since it was Zune Pass (and my sub simply carried over), and that I've had no problems since the first few days of my Lumia 920 ownership last November. Now, none of this is new to me, as I'm sure it's not new to anyone else. What is new (to me, at least) is how the support guy tried to solve the issue. He asked me to set the date to a week ahead, reset the phone, and then try and play my downloaded content. Amazingly, it worked. he told me to leave the date set to the (near) future for an hour or two, then switch it back and it should be fine, and the live chat ended.
I left it about three or four hours, set the date back to the 17th, aaaaand... no dice. It gives me the DRM error. Then I can set it back to a week ahead and it works again. WTF!? I tried a few more soft-resets, reboots, and messing around with the dates all evening yesterday, all to no avail. If I set the date one day ahead, it doesn't work. If I set the date six days ahead, it doesn't work. If I set the date three weeks ahead, it doesn't work. The phone will only play back the downloaded content if the date is set exactly one week ahead. What kind of sense does this make? Has anyone else had this issue?
So to today. I just got out of another live chat with support, and they told me that I need to give it a week for the issue to resolve. This means I can't access the store or get calendar/Me tile notifications for a week. On the plus side, according to my phone, today is my birthday. Where are all my presents!?
So, here's my question(s): Has anyone else experienced this date issue? And did it resolve by itself? I don't really want to factory restore my phone if I don't have to, but I also don't want to have a somewhat-useless phone for a week. I'm not sure what to do, and of course, there's no guarantee either path will actually work. Any ideas?
[Also, a quick question on the backup feature - I've never used it. What will be saved and what will I lose if I decide to backup and then restore the phone? I have a lot of images saved to the phone from the net (for lockscreen wallpapers and the like) - do they get automatically backed up, or would I have to manually upload them all to SD? Also, where do the backups go? Are they user-accessible?]
I still don't want to factory reset, so I'm waiting 'til tomorrow (when one week will be up), then if it's still not working, I'm getting back on support to (respectfully) complain. I don't really like complaining, but I'm paying money for a service I can't use properly.
Apologies for the massive rant, but I'm just so frustrated :(
Right, I don't know if anyone is still reading this thread, but I thought I'd provide an update.
The step outlined in my above post did not work, so it was escalated to the engineer/tech/whatever team, who eventually informed me that it is a known error (thanks for that) and that the team are working on it. I replied asking if there was a chance a hard reset would not rectify the issue, and whether there was a timeframe for a fix. I just got this as a reply:This issue should be resolved with a new update, which is coming soon but I do not have the exact date of it.
Doing a hard reset of the phone may not help in this situation. I am not 100% sure if this can help you, so I cannot suggest to do it.
We will be in touch with you as soon as we get more information regarding upcoming update and let you know about it.
If however you reset the phone, please let us know of the result.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. — Sophomore forward Emerson Rodrigues scored a pair of goals and the Eastern New Mexico University men's soccer team dominated Mesa State 5-1 on Sunday.
Rodrigues' first goal came on a header off a crossing pass from sophomore midfielder Edward Bear with about 15 minutes left in the opening half, giving the Greyhounds (3-2-2) a 2-0 lead. His goal off a free kick with about 35 minutes left, extending ENMU's lead to 3-1.
The Brazilian-born Rodrigues now has three multiple-goal outings this season and has scored seven of the Hounds' 14 goals. No one else has scored more than two.
The Mavericks (7-3) had won five of six matches coming in and were ranked 23rd in the NCAA Division II national poll in mid-September.
Senior defender Michael James gave the Hounds the lead in the 21st minute with an unassisted goal. Senior forward Jared Morris and freshman midfielder Odilon Garcia added goals in the final 20 minutes.
Senior Grant Shanahan, making his first start in goal for the Hounds, allowed a goal by the Mavericks' Marco Angelo late in the first half. He finished with five saves.

The Phillies held on to win the finale of their three game series with Milwaukee on Sunday, 7-5, and avoided the sweep.
The Phils jumped out to an early lead in the first, scoring five runs off Brewers starter Mike Fiers. Domonic Brown hit a three-run home run, while Erik Kratz and Freddy Galvis each drove in a run in a first inning during which Philadelphia batted around. They then added another two runs in the second to jump out to a large 7-0 lead.
With seven early runs and Lee on the mound, there was a definite feeling of comfort.. .until there wasn't. Antonio Bastardo pitched the ninth instead of Jonathan Papelbon, who was nowhere to be found, and nearly let the game slip away. A game that was already too close for comfort because of Justin De Fratus' struggles. Turns out Papelbon was unavailable due to a stomach illness.
Dom Brown's Power Carrying Offense
At this point, you feel spoiled if Brown does not hit a home run in a key spot with men on base. The Phillies left fielder cranked his 16th homer of the year in the first inning, a three-run blast off the facing of the upper deck in right. He followed that up with an RBI triple in the second, a single in the fifth, and a walk in the seventh inning.
Brown's power has been almost hard to comprehend. In his last nine games, he has eight home runs and 14 RBI, which is more than any other player in the majors over that span. He has also raised his average from .243 on May 19 to .282, which is no easy feat two months into the season.
Walks from Howard a Key to Scoring Runs
One thing that happened in Sunday's game that has been happening more often of late is Ryan Howard working a walk out of a tough count, and having that extend the inning for Brown, who drives in the runs. In the last three days Howard has three walks after having just one in his previous seven games. When your best hitter is doing what Brown is doing, Howard getting on base (especially with two outs) is key because it gives Brown an opportunity to drive in runs like he did today, and does not bring him up with the bases empty in the next inning.
Lee is Lee, did you expect anything else?
We have come to expect Cliff Lee to do what he did today, and has done the last several outings. The southpaw has been almost untouchable in his last six starts. He has been mixing up his pitches, forcing weak contact and pounding the strike zone. At one point in the seventh inning, when he hit the 80 pitch mark, he had thrown 64 strikes and 16 balls.
Lee finished the game with 11 strikeouts in 7 2/3 innings. He did allow three earned runs, but that was mostly due to Justin De Fratus allowing the two runners he inherited to score on a bases-clearing triple by Jonathan Lucroy. It could have been even worse as a grand slam was overturned on replay.
In his career, Lee is 72-7 when his team has scored six runs or more for him.
Up Next…
The Phillies will remain at home for a three game series with the last place Miami Marlins. The Phillies are 6-4 against Miami this year, which is not all that good considering they have only 16 wins all season and more than a quarter of those are against the Phillies. On Monday night Philadelphia will send Kyle Kendrick to the hill. He pitched well his last time out and has a 5-3 record and 3.27 ERA this season.

Galvis to Rollins: That's how its done ol' head. Rollins to Galvis: No this is the way to make a great play Youngan….Man i cant believe this game almost slipped out of their hands.
I think Howard took some pointer from Big Papi…..
And the Nats have slipped under .500 – right in our division the Phils have been struggling mightily against the second worse team in the majors and the Nats have almost begged the Phils to take second place from them..
Youre right Brooks. Its same thing when they face a struggling pitcher with a ERA of 6+. Then when they get the bases loaded 1 or no outs situation they fail to deliver. I think its 4 for 27 in those situations or something of the sort.
It's true, they've been awful with the bases loaded.
On the other hand they're second best in the league with men on 1st and 2nd. I don't think I've heard anybody talk about that. And there are more 3 1/2 times as many situations as with the bases loaded.
What the hell happened to Papelbon? Bastardo makes my blood pressure rise.
Stomach illness. In fairness to Bastardo, if Revere catches the fly ball that began the inning, the inning would have probably been much easier.
Victorino read balls better than Revere, and that's saying something.
Interesting statistic i saw tonight: Phillies rank #1 in quality starts……
We really gotta start scoring some runs. period.
Imagine if Cole got his act together…
It's not like he hasn't had any quality starts! I've never seen such a strange season for a pitcher.
At this point, who cares about the Nats?The teams they are chasing for the WC are and the division are 8 games ahead of the them.
The Phillies have shown they are a bad team occasionally capable of playing a good game, as opposed to a good team that has had a stretch of bad luck.
Well, Dom Brown proving he can play solves some offseason questions.
Looks we're only looking for 1.5 outfielders (the .5 is based on the chance Revere proves he can at play).
THis isn't a winning team. Too many injuries, holes and inconsistent play. I'd keep Cole and Brown and see what I can get for Lee, Utley and Rollins. I'd trade howard as well and pay whatever part of his salary I had too. Even saving a few million bucks and opening up a spot in the line-up /field is worth it to me.
I'd get behind a team with "kids" again.
I think you gotta consider keeping Jimmy as well. It's great to have a team of "kids" but, seriously, who else would you put in there at SS right now?? Rollins is an absolute rock out there at that position.
2014 starting 8:
Right Fielder
Galvis is a ss.
That is true…he is an SS by trade. BUT….I think he can really play 2B and 3B really well also and RIGHT NOW I'd rather keep Rollins as your "veteran presence" up the middle. I don't think the team would be hurt by that at all.
The thing I think about is if we keep Utley, Howard, Brown, revere and call up asche that's five lefties in our lineup.. and I'm not ready to give up on Chase yet, maybe we try to turn him into a left fielder and shift Brown to right, and make room for Hernandez
I don't think you can trade Lee unless someone just blows you away with an offer, and/or they take Howard, too.
I've about seen enough of Revere. He's almost certainly cost the team more runs than he's produced with his misplaying routine fly balls and popgun arm., and how is it possible for a guy that has played almost every day to have 5 RBIs on June 2nd?!?
IMO time to end the Delmon Young experiment. Move Brown to RF, Bring up Ruf to play LF, and, God help us, put Mayberry in CF.
I think you gotta give Revere the full season to really see what you've got. He didn't hit around .300 last year by accident. Agree that his defense is sometimes sketchy but I've seen worse.
Totally agree on getting rid of Delmon. The guy is a total waste at this point. I'd play Mayberry in right with some Nix thrown in. I don't think putting Ruf out there everyday is the answer and I don't think moving Brown at this point in the season makes sense either. He's the left fielder, let's not screw around with him anymore than we have to! There's been enough of that.
Cliff Lee ain't going anywhere.
Revere should be given every opportunity to improve this year..because of his speed..he does need a lot of work both offensively and defensively, but he is still young. I remember what was said about a young Dom Brown's struggles the last few years..
I'm waiting for Revere to hit for the cycle. Ground out to first, 2nd,
ss, and 3rd. I know he has it in him!
And I don't really care that Revere has just 5 RBI in June. Driving in runs isn't his game. Getting on base, stealing bags, making life miserable for the pitcher….that's what I want to see from him. That speed…if used properly…can be a VERY powerful weapon.
LOL. I can't think of a player who creates less misery for a pitcher than Ben "2 hopper' Revere.
Hogey have you seen Utley throw a ball. His awkward throwing motion sometimes i wonder how he hits his targets from 30ft away. Let alone from the outfield. Nix has falling off radar. What they need is a proven OF'er/CF'er. Mayberry is not the answer. Yes his defense is ok but at the plate is a different story. Now that Young is back can they Dl Howard?
Nothing new from me but here it goes –
Utley has to be traded. Not because he is not a good player but because we have to give up on 08 team, because he will want multiyear and his injuries will not improve and because he will give us the most value. No multiyear obligation to take on, just an experienced player to take someone to the playoffs (Phils are not going there).
I would put Ruiz on the market too but I don't know what he is worth. In any case we should NOT resign him because we have to give on the 08 team and focus on the future, we have a ton of catcher prospects who we need to give some experience and trials too.
Lee will be difficult to move because his contract is back loaded ($25 million in 13, 14 and 15 and a $12.5 million buyout/27.5 million club option for 16.) Take him in the middle of 13 and you sign up for $75 million. I think there will be buyers but also consider that he has no trade clause of 21 teams. Not impossible but will the team improve?
Without Utley and Halladay the team has $35 million to spend which should be focused on 3b/rf.
I can't see anyone taking Howard for any money thrown in. He is a hole in the lineup. We bought him, he is broke and we keep him. Hopefully he is moved down in the lineup in the future.
I am ambivalent about Rollins. I think he is worth the money and we don't seem to have a lot of infield prospects.
Revere is cheap and if we have better than lets play them.
Starting pitching hopefully will be the problem for 14.
I think with the likes of Pettibone and Cloyd, plus a mystery season from Hamels, that starting pitching is a problem already.
Howard is clearly hurting. He should be DL'ed . I would say he should be dropped in the lineup, except who else isn't stinking up the joint besides Brown?

Annual Fur Ball event held Saturday
WILLIAMSTOWN – Animal lovers from around the Mid-Ohio Valley united on Saturday night to raise money for the Humane Society of the Ohio Valley in Marietta with the 10th annual Fur Ball.
About 200 people packed the American Legion Post 159 in Williamstown for the five-hour event that included silent and live auctions, food and live music.
"Every year this event exceeds my expectations," said HSOV board president Jane Snell. "The support we get from this event is all about the community."
The Fur Ball is the biggest of the Marietta-based society's fundraisers, throughout the year.
The board and volunteers had set a goal of $15,000 for the event, but hoped to raise as much as $17,000, since this year's event marked a decade since it started.
"Last year we raised $14,000, but since this is an anniversary year, we are hoping for $17,000," said shelter manager Steve Herron. "Really, every cent we raise will help the animals and that's what we are here to do."
Organizers hoped for a boost of attendance by having local band Hit Parade perform for the crowd.
"They have a big following and we would like to see people come for their music who haven't come to the Fur Ball in the past," Herron said. "But, really, we are here to celebrate."
All funds from the event will be divided, with 85 percent to the society's operating fund, 5 percent going its new building fund and 10 percent for medical expenses for the animals. The general fund helps support daily costs at the shelter and the medical fund contributes to the care of the animals.
The new building fund was created after an anonymous donation of $30,000 was received several years ago. Since then, a portion of each Fur Ball's funds goes toward the new facility.
The shelter, located on County House Lane in Marietta, sees between 1,500-1,700 dogs and 1,600-2,000 cats each year and provides not only food, shelter and adoptions, but also medical care for those in need.
"We refuse to give up on an animal just because it is sick," Herron said. "If we can help them, we do."
The shelter has the lowest instance of euthanasia of any shelter in the state with less than 1 percent of the dogs housed there being put down, he added.
"Those are dogs who were too sick or too aggressive to be re-homed," he said. "We hate to do it, but those are the dogs that cannot be helped."
During the evening, longtime volunteer Lisa Merrow was recognized for her work on the Fur Ball for the past 10 years.
"It's not about me," Merrow said. "It is heartwarming and gratifying that people care so much about the animals and this event proves that the community support we receive is amazing."
Snell said the fundraising events are important because they show the community the humane society is willing to work for the animals.
"We can't expect the public to support us if we don't support ourselves," she said.

Gettin' Kicked and Gettin' Injured… Injured Bad
When I went mad back in early March waiting in an online queue for over four hours to land crappy, view-obstructed upper deck Cardinals/Cubs tickets for the September series at Wrigley, I was more than positive that my time spent in idle agony would eventually pay off — that, come September, the games would really mean something.
Playoff tune-up.
Heated battle for first place in the NL Central.
Wild card implications.
Wrong. Wronger. And WAY WRONGER.
Instead, what we have is a barely breathing, leaderless (no, Albert ain't the leader) and underachieving Cardinals club squaring off against yet another maybe-next-year, embarrassment-infected sCrUBS team going nowhere. That's right. The Cardinals/Cubs series will end as just another series between two kicked down and beaten up teams that no one cares about.
And that hurts.
Of course, it could hurt worse… like my 'lil man here explains:
The Cards and Cubs are injured bad alright. No question. But at least they wear cups.
So we hope.
Happy Friday!
(thanks to C for bringin' this kid to my attention)

Jeff, baseball is baseball and it's always important-No matter what two teams are playing. You're lucky you get to catch a game this late in the season. I'm already counting down until the MiLB season starts up again in April. Have a great time and drink a $7 beer for me.
'Minoring In Baseball'
Now wont you feel bad if the Cards go 8-0 and the Reds go 0-8, remember it's not over till the fat lady sings, or should that be 'weight impaired person of the female gender'… alternatively finding humor in the misery of another is the US American way….
Mike — You're right. Good point. I accept. But know that it's only $6.75 for an Old Style😉
Peter — Nothing warms my heart more than knowing you have figured out US America!
Talk about how meaningless this game was and how uninterested people are, I couldn't even give my tickets away for yesterday. I couldn't go and nobody wanted them. I should have sold them back in April but I was like you, I thought this series might mean something.
You think YOU'VE got problems? Check the Metropolitans.
Jane — Oh, I did. And STL still tops the sCrUBS.
Russel — I had a similar problem. Glad I went though.
Prince — Yeah. Wouldn't want those problems, man.

Sorry Matt race season is upon me. The walls of time are closing in on me so I have to make this quick:In the background I have been working on a capping station theory which compliments Lee's suggestion. Good time to mention it now I guess. I plan to modify the right side cover on this 9900. I will make it easily removable. Idea is to release the head, slide it to the side, roll the capping station manually into view, check that it's clean then spray it with a mixture of distilled water and glycerin - a humectant. This will have to be tested of course but the hope is it will help keep the head from drying.
Is there a sado masochistic relationship between Epson, its wide format printers and customers? Are printers ritually dissected? Do service men appear in black leather or vinyl to repair printers? Are fines paid to continue this torture? Not even Epson seems to mind the exposure of this relationship. No cries of disgust are heard when torn apart parts are shown in gory detail.I read this thread less and less but I can not resist the temptation to look for a new episode from time to time. It is true, I am a voyeur and not one with compassion for victim or torturer. Being confronted for years with stories like this you can only think they must like one another for some reason.Next time I might consider another perspective; similarities in The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha and Epson 7900 from the inside - out.-- Met vriendelijke groet, Ernsthttp://www.pigment-print.com/spectralplots/spectrumviz_1.htmDecember 2012, 500+ inkjet media white spectral plots.
Does anywone know of software that will make a 7900/9900 print separate color bars for each of the 10 inks for test and purge? MIS had a program for the 2400, but doesn't seem to have one for the 7900.mzf25
So can anyone offer some insight into this mysterious behavior?
Hi I bought the printer and the owner mentioned this problem as to why he had put the printer out to pasture but exclaimed, when I was buying it, that the problem was no longer there. That was probably because he was a cartridge short and so the remaining carts were registering just fine.

The Right to Die Is the Right to Live
By Lisa Carver
Wolf as he sees himself going out in the world.
One month before his 18th birthday, my son Wolf was thrilled to receive invitations from galleries in Melbourne and New York City to exhibit his paintings of mythical creatures, herbivores, aliens, religious imagery, and cities destroyed by solar flares. The bad news is that the showings are scheduled for the summer of 2013. Wolf may not be alive then. At least according to the call I received from one of his doctors, suggesting that he and I begin sessions with an end-of-life grief counselor.
Wolf was born with a microdeletion in his 22nd chromosome. The resulting medical conditions have rippled out into ever-expanding rings of pain; each attempt to fix one problem results in another. The more tests and treatments and medicines he is prescribed, the sicker he gets. The sicker he gets, the more tests and treatments and medicines he is prescribed.
At various points in his life, Wolf has been diagnosed as schizoaffective, bipolar, ADD, OCD, and ODD, and he's also been undiagnosed with these disorders. Finally, the doctors settled on NOS—"not otherwise specified." The US Department of Health claims that 20 percent of Americans are mentally ill, and even questioning authority is considered by some to be a disorder. If you fell into their diagnosing hands, who knows what they would find? Wolf has never had a break from his diagnosers.
I am grateful to science for saving Wolf's life at three weeks old when his heart failed; I am grateful to psychiatry for creating medications to stave off crises that, without intervention, could have been disastrous. I am grateful to the many giving doctors, nurses, therapists, teachers, and aides who have taken his little broken body and mind into their hands and hearts to infuse them with more life. But somewhere along the line they—and I—forgot that eventually we would have to step away and give that life back to him.
When the grief counselor was recommended, Wolf was already seeing three therapists weekly: one for speech, another for behavior modification, and one to monitor psych meds. If they were not able to really help him live, why should we bring in another to help him die? Between the three specialists monitoring his thoughts and the 11 in charge of his physical systems—circulatory, immune, gastroenterology, ear-nose-throat, etc.—Wolf was on 16 medications. Blood tests and bone scans every couple weeks. Untold cups peed and pooped in, refrigerated and delivered. MRIs. Any rashes? Any thoughts of hurting yourself or others? Any delusions? Have we met our goal to interact with peers appropriately 75 percent of the time? Have you developed hair on your scrotum? Let me see. Any tenderness around the nipples? I'm just going to insert this barium into your G-tube.
Home was no sanctuary. So many times he had to fast for 12 hours to prep for a test or leave a play date early because I'd forgotten to pack all the equipment he needed or cut a vacation short for an appointment or get up at 5 AM for the drive to Boston Children's Hospital. Sleep wasn't a refuge, for him or for me. One night, while I was having a really nice dream about trying on bathing suits (and I looked good in every one of them), the telephone, which I kept right by my head, ripped me out of my sleep. A nurse practitioner had just read the results of Wolf's latest calcium-level test, and her voice was an insistent alarm clock.
Nurse Practitioner: "The doctor wants to double his calcium intake."
Me: "He's still throwing up every day. I don't want to increase his calcium."
Nurse Practitioner: "You have to. If it gets much lower, he could have a seizure."
Me: "Could have a seizure. With the vomiting and nausea, he is starving to death."
Nurse Practitioner: "I see. I'm feeling like you need to come in and touch base with the doctor. Are you feeling that?"
Me: "No. Wolf and I have up to five appointments a week, every week. I'm not feeling like I need to touch any base on an issue we've already gone back and forth on."
Nurse Practitioner: "I'm going to put you on hold, because I need to get the doctor in on this… I have the doctor standing right behind me, and she says his calcium needs to be doubled."
Me: "He can't take it. He's going to be throwing up ten times a day."
Nurse Practitioner: "Well, we agree that the calcium needs to be increased, so you're going to have to double that. We'll call you back in a week or so and talk about how it's going. That's all I have for you now."
I doubled his calcium.
The Easter Seals aide who accompanies Wolf to his volunteer animal-care job emailed me the next day: "Wolfgang threw up earlier and just threw up again while we were trying to eat lunch. As he is pouring formula into his tube this time, he says he will throw up again if he has any more. I am strongly suggesting he finish anyway so that he doesn't starve. Which will hurt him more in the end?"
Wolf at three weeks old.
This was followed by a phone call from a Medicaid rep who informed me that they would be refusing additional doctor overrides on Wolf's prescription for Ondansetron (primarily used after chemotherapy to deactivate the portion of the medulla oblongata that induces vomiting), the one thing that has been effective at reducing his nausea. At $1,000 a month, the rep said that it was no longer a cost-effective solution.
"He lost 22 pounds this summer," I replied. "He gained back six as soon as the Ondansetron kicked in, and that is the only thing that kept him out of the hospital, which will cost you a hell of a lot more."
"I understand how you feel," she said.
"No, you don't. You don't understand how it feels to listen to someone you love puke his life out because his insurance company thinks he doesn't deserve the medicine he needs."
Medicines order Wolf's body around, and then his internal directives are changed whenever some number cruncher at an insurance company forces his doctors to compromise treatment. Therapists tell him how to think and behave, what his values are (for instance, he should desire independence). That's not a personality; that's a chart. To be "independent" on command is to be utterly dependent on others' ideas of self.
Everyone occupies a place in Wolf's head but Wolf. Even the nonprofessionals—myself, his aides, other relatives, the bus driver, other kids—pile on, reminding him of his "goals" and the many ways he is not meeting them. We define what growing up means for him—"doing what you're supposed to do" (what we tell you to do). We even think it's our business to tell him how to develop into a man, a space that for everyone else is considered personal and private. Because Wolf's hormones and executive thinking are delayed, his social skills immature, his body still childish, clumsy, disoriented, and limp, and his disposition passive and receptive, we all live under the impression that his being is an open topic of discussion.
If Wolf hadn't already been diagnosed insane years ago, we would have driven him there. By constantly discussing how we could buy him more time, we suffocated his will to live. Death by boredom, death by advice tsunami.

UW graduates' job outlook improved, yet still uncertain
Thousands of graduates receive diplomas over weekend
As thousands of University of Wisconsin-Madison graduates received diplomas over the weekend, economists said their job prospects were improved yet still uncertain.
New graduate hiring is up this spring, but still well below the 21 percent year-over-year drop in 2009, said Leslie Kohlberg, director of career services at the UW's College of Letters and Science.
Because of that, graduates are more realistic than they were prior to the 2007-2009 economic recession, Kohlberg said.
"We used to say students had a problem with entitlement -- they thought they were going to get (six-figure salaries) and bonuses and were not realistic in their expectations," she said. "The students graduating today have been in college the entire time we've been in recession."
Some members of UW's Class of 2013 said that, although they don't have jobs, they're optimistic their degrees mean work will be there for them.
Elizabeth Grady of Sun Prairie, who graduated with a journalism degree, said she's moving to Minnesota to get married. She's hopeful to get a job in the creative department at an advertising firm.
Ali Krolicki said she doesn't have concrete plans just yet, but the Wausau native said she wants to use her international studies degree abroad.
For Mike Walker, a political science graduate, home beckons. He'll go back to his hometown of Eden Prairie, Minn., before possibly moving to San Francisco to pursue a career in business-to-business sales.
Max Puchalsky of Verona, a political science and music double major, won't be finding a job right away. He said, over the next six months, he'd like to earn a Fullbright Scholarship to keep studying in London. Wherever he goes, Puchalsky said it'll be with his girlfriend of eight years.
The graduates' prospects have brightened because more employers are looking to hire than cut back, UW's Kohlberg said. Salaries are also increasing across the degree fields, she said.

Philadelphia Phillies (39-32) at Toronto Blue Jays (39-35)
Cole Hamels, LHP (6-5, 3.75ERA) vs. Shaun Marcum, RHP (6-3, 3.24 ERA)
Time: 4:05, Citizens Bank Park
Weather: Partly Cloudy, 86
Twitter: @philliesnation
The Phillies are back to their old ways of offensive explosions and lights out pitching. This is the team that Philadelphia fans love to watch.
There was certainly no home field advantage for the Blue Jays, who were given a 9-0 beat down from the Phillies. The Blue Jays will remain the home team throughout this series, but at Citizens Bank Park, the advantage always goes to the team dressed in red pinstripes (but in this case, the gray road uniforms).
Shaun Marcum, who missed all of 2009 due to an injury, will take the hill for the Jays. Marcum has been solid in 15 starts this season. His earned run average sits at 3.24 and he has a decent WHIP of 1.14. Opponents are batting just .238 against him, however the newly re-surged Phillies offense could give him a surprise.
Cole Hamels continues to look stellar. In his last outing, he had one rough inning before settling in. This seems to be a reoccurring theme for Hamels. Hamels tends to be inconsistent, but lately he's pitched very well. Hamels just needs to avoid that one bad inning, and his ERA will slowly drop, and the wins will pile up.
Your gameday beer: Today we need something hearty and strong. Go with Stovepipe Porter by Otter Creek. It's hard as hell but fills you up. This team needs to fill up with offense. Weird transition? Sure. Eat some ribs with this. — By Tim
Go Phillies!

lets keep this rolling phillies
polly gets day off castro at 3rd base ughhhh!!!!
Get it together Colebert
thats what i'm talking about
Good thing they moved this to Philly. Big riot in downtown Toronto with police being overwhelmed and cruisers set on fire.
Sorry I'm late — I was up late last night at the Phillies game, and took a too-long nap this afternoon!
So I guess we won't have two shut-outs in a row…
(checking news) Wow… I thought you were BSing, John, but there it is in AP…
Bleh, 3 innings down and no Phils runs yet… come on, guys, let's get it done…
Cole just doesn't have it today, and looks like the offense doesn't have it either
cole needs to limit his pitches thrown 75 for 3 innings not good
Looks like Gload has it!
Oh fer cryin out loud…
nice play Gload
hehehe… hating the home run, but loving watching three guys fighting over the privilege of picking it up, even though they will be peer=pressured to throw it back.
@Chuck: that was called as Utley's error, not Gload's.
coles hanging that changeup ! 3 dingers !
Mets lost lets win this one !
Its still early bats get clickin right now !
Top of 5th plenty of time ! Get a couple back right now !
Yeah but Gload should have had it
wow , who's on the mound ( tom seaver ? ) come on guys !
Were down 5 runs , jimmy's gotta take some pitches there and make this guy work , shane too . One thing you always notice with yankees and red sox , theyr'e not afraid to hit with 2 strikes. Thats why theyr'e games against each other are the longest in baseball. I know when were going well like recently the aggressiveness can be good. However when were down 5 runs our team still takes the same approach at the plate like its top of the 1st. They did it thru the whole slump and it makes me nuts , remember the PAVANO game against minnesota , the guy only threw like 60 pitches thru 6 innings and it was 95 degrees out.
I know its not easy i played thru my 20's. Does it make anyone else nuts we don't work pitchers more especially when were playin from behind ?
YES!!! GO BIG BROWN!!! But mostly just glad that the Phils won't get shut out today…
that was his 94 pitch
And maybe that will get some momentum going our way…
@sports nut: Actually, Jimmy worked the pitcher very well last night. He walked in most of his at-bats! And went to a full count on at least one of the walks.
Everytime I see blanton or hamels pitch, I think it should be lees turn, the cheap bastard owners, one year at 9 million, why . why trade him, hate the owners, the prospects were shit we got. mariners will get more for lee now then we did. cheap bastard owners.
What's with the necklaces on the pitchers?
Hamels had one, but I thought it was just a California thing. Now I see Figgy has one.
@tracey —– i know trace , but last nite we were up big . I'm talkin about when your behind. Hey , i realize were an aggressive team at the plate. However i know you as a baseball fan, knows what i'm talkin about. When your playin from behind you cant let opposing pitchers have 10 pitch innings. Jimmy is great and i love him but his obp is always one of the lowest among leadoff hitters. I hate the friggin yankees and sox but every year theyre #1 and #2 in pitch count against. I would just like to see these guys have more discipline at the plate when were down , dont be afraid to hit with 2 strikes and get on base ! Howards homer perfect example ( nobody on ) .
Jayson abruptly stopped his hitting too I see – 0 for 3 with 3 K's
@Brooks: well, nobody's getting the job done tonight, so it's hard to point any fingers at anybody in particular.
True – Jayson had 8 hits in his last 9 at bats – plus a walk. That was a zone.
Any idea why the Jays are changing pitchers like this? They have control on the game.
Utley is the only one who's been on base more than once tonight, and Howard is the only one who's been patient enough to walk.
ugh.. and the Braves have a good lead in their 8th inning.
Bleh. That was a pathetic game. I hope tomorrow is better — I have tickets for that one.
This looks to me like anyone could be pitching out there for the Jays, Phils are just off.
One of the things about these Phils they have lost the ability to comeback specifically all those great magical comeback wins the last 3 years…When they would be down say 5-1 and make a comeback in the 8th an 9th Winning..Baez makes me nervous he barely made it that inning though Oh Oh the jays are going to blow this one open
WOW. I feel sorry for people who paid to see that garbage,
Oh wait, that would be me.
Caught a good nap in between Cole auditioning to throw the home run derby at the AS game this year,
Best 1-2 punch in the league,Chuck? I think not.

The progress Crystal Lake Central's Alex Baker made during his high school running career was remarkable.
As a freshman, Baker was on the Tigers' soccer team. As a sophomore, he switched to cross country. And in the past two years, he went from a good runner on one of the area's best teams to one of the best runners in the state.
Baker might never have guessed three years ago that he would be accepting an NCAA Division I scholarship offer to run cross country and track at Loyola University in Chicago. He committed to the Ramblers last Sunday and will sign his NCAA national letter of intent in February.
"I really liked the coaches there," Baker said. "I think what coach (Randy) Hasenbank can do for me will make me better. I really connected with the team and I like the location and the medical school."
Baker plans on majoring in biology or pre-med with hopes of becoming a physical therapist. He finished second in the Class 2A boys race in the IHSA cross country state meet and was the Northwest Herald Boys Cross Country Runner of the Year.
Baker lost to only four runners the entire season, three of whom won individual state championships – Beecher's Grant Nykaza (Class 1A), Glenbard South's John Wold (2A) and St. Ignatius' Jake Keelan (3A). The other runner who beat Baker was Belvidere North's Garrett Lee, who won the Belvidere Sectional.
Central graduate Rachel Bush runs at Loyola and was a great source for Baker regarding the school.
"I talked to her more than the guys on the team, because I mainly talked to them when I visited," Baker said. "She would come back (to meets) and we would talk about the school and the program."
Baker credited Tigers coach Bill Eschman for helping him reach this level.
"I thank my coach and my teammates," Baker said. "My coach had a lot to do with it. I owe a lot to him, and to God. This is a blessing from God."
Eschman marveled at Baker's rise to stardom.
"It's been fun watching him grow every year," he said. "This year he really learned how to run with confidence. He learned how to be a leader in the race, which was exciting to watch. What he accomplished is really impressive. That's very special, it's not an accident."
Gedaly to Bemidji: Huntley linebacker Justin Gedaly has committed to D-II Bemidji (Minn.) State to play football on scholarship. Gedaly (6-foot-2, 220 pounds) was a three-year varsity player for the Red Raiders and a Northwest Herald All-Area second-team selection.
Things happened very quickly for Gedaly with Bemidji. He sent the coaching staff his highlight DVD less than three weeks ago and committed this week.
"Me and my dad (Russell) were looking for D-II schools and we looked at a lot in Minnesota," Gedaly said. "I liked the close-knit community and that the school is right near where you can hunt and fish."
Gedaly wants to major in special education and liked Bemidji's education program. After sending the coaches his DVD, he heard back quickly and visited last weekend.
"Once I was there, I knew it was the right place for me," said Gedaly, who mentioned D-II Saint Joseph's and D-III Dubuque and Monmouth as other schools he considered.
Gedaly helped the Raiders to a 6-4 record and a Class 7A playoff appearance this season. Huntley was 2-7 the previous year. It was during Gedaly's sophomore year that he realized he might be able to play at an athletic scholarship school in college.
"I was playing linebacker and at that point I had played AAU basketball and baseball," Gedaly said. "I gave up those sports and started working out and committed myself to football."

I bought it on impulse, because I found a used copy for 7,50 . It sounds pretty good on first listen, but nothing mindblowing. It's mostly traditional doom with smoky, groovy riffs. But I think they're at their strongest when they venture into slightly more epic territory such as in Day of Farewell and Castle of the Devil.

Why focus on underage alcohol use?
Research provides more reasons than ever for parents, students, college professionals, community members and other adults to be alarmed about the effects of underage drinking in Texas. Among Texas college students, alcohol is the primary drug of choice -nearly double the use of other substances. Alcohol is linked to poor class attendance, low academic performance, unwanted sexual activity, depression, suicide, and alcohol poisoning.
What is a Regional Forum?
Regional Forums are opportunities for campuses and communities to connect their spheres of influence and equip themselves with information and tools to effectively collaborate for change at local, regional, and state levels. Texans Standing Tall is partnering with Circles of San Antonio Community Coalition, The REAL Alcohol Coalition, The University of Texas at San Antonio Student Health Services, San Antonio Council on Alcohol and Drug Abuse, and San Antonio Fighting Back, Inc to hold the College Regional Forum in San Antonio.
What can I expect?
Experienced professionals in alcohol prevention and community change will equip participants with tools, information, and resources to prevent and reduce underage alcohol use among college students. College Forums will feature education and breakout groups on strategies including Screening and Brief Intervention and social host ordinances.
Date: Friday, March 25, 2011
Time: 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Giants fans need some good news; so here it is
Amid the Giants offensive slump — three runs in three games — I thought it would be a good time to share some good news.
Madison Bumgarner had his first solid outing of 2010 on Monday night.
The left-hander gave up one earned run over six innings of work in a 3-2 win over the Portland Beavers. He struck out three and walked one. He also gave up an unearned run — unearned because he committed an error on a pickoff throw to first.
The error led to the unearned run. The earned run came on a home run. His fastball was clocked as high as 94 mph on the stadium gun.
"I felt like I pitched a lot better," said Bumgarner, who came into the game with an ERA over 14.00. "Even last time out felt better, but this was my best start of the spring or the season so far."
But Bumgarner didn't get the win, because like the big-league counterparts, the Fresno hitters didn't score enough runs for him.
So if he ever gets back to San Francisco, Bumgarner will fit right in with the rest of the Giant pitchers
1 Comment
It seems to me that for the past games of GIANTS is been affected by latest McAfee virus. But at least, its time for some good news – thanks to Bumgarner for having his first solid outing of 2010 on that Monday night. It gives us some hopes to enjoy their games. Hope for more positive play-offs.
