The movie "Swing Vote," a movie about a loveable loser named Bud Johnson in a fictitious Texico, New Mexico, who ends up being the deciding voter in the presidential election, is scheduled for release Friday.
In the PG-13 movie, politicians invade the town and its unwitting inhabitants, waging war for Johnson's vote.
The movie was not filmed in Texico. Filmmakers just like the name of the town for the setting. Movie directors did borrow patches for police officer uniforms and photos of their police cars.
Texico's mayor and city council gave the filmmakers permission to use the town name. Mayor Jerry Cunningham was invited to the filming in Belen.
"They made a street up in Belen that looked like what they thought Texico looked like," Cunningham said. "But I don't think any of them knew where Texico was."
Cunningham said he met Kevin Costner, who portrays Bud Johnson in the film. He also met the director Joshua Michael Stern.
Nicole Harris, 20, has lived in Texico for eight years. She said she wished they would have at least come to see the town.
"If they used our name, they should have come and seen how the town was. Especially since they're focusing on a nobody in a nobody town," Harris said. "It'll look like there's nothing to do in a little town."
Texico City Clerk Carolyn Johnson said she hadn't heard of any concerns with the movie depicting Texico in a negative way.
"It's just fiction," Johnson said.
Heidi Mayfield from the film's production office said in January the writers were looking at a map of New Mexico for small towns to serve as the hometown of Costner's character when they spotted Texico. She also said writer/director Joshua Michael Stern liked the name.
"It was pretty random, because I remember if we couldn't get it cleared, we'd go with something else," Mayfield said.
The movie, which will be showing at the North Plains Cinema 7 and the Tower Theater in Portales, also includes Dennis Hopper, Kelsey Grammer, George Lopez, Willie Nelson and Richard Petty, according to www.imdb.com.

By Mickey Winfield: Freedom Newspapers
For more than a quarter century he has argued on behalf of Melrose student-athletes to be honored for their actions in and out of their participation in sports, and now, in the twilight of his career, longtime Melrose athletic director Sid Black is the one getting recognition.
Black was given the New Mexico Activities Association sportsmanship award Saturday during the state basketball tournament at the Pit in Albuquerque. The award is long overdue, according to Melrose football coach and assistant athletic director Dickie Roybal, who nominated Black for the award.
"This is something that we should have done a long time ago," Roybal said. "The last three years we've had kids nominated for the sportsmanship award. This year, (we) decided it's time to get him the award."
Roybal tells a revealing story about his mentor, which he included in his nomination letter.
"We've had kids who weren't fortunate enough to have enough money and couldn't afford shoes," Roybal said. "And he has always just written a check and said, 'Buy this kid some shoes or buy this kid whatever he needs.' And then he would say, 'I don't want you to tell them who it's from, as long as they get what they need,' and that's the kind of person that he is."
Black began his teaching and coaching career in 1965 in Magdalena. He arrived in Melrose in 1981, where he assumed assistant basketball coaching duties and became the Buffaloes athletic director.
There is just something that he loves about small town schools, according to the experienced educator.
"I went to school in a small school back in Illinois about the same size as Melrose," Black said. "I just have always enjoyed being in a small-school environment."
According to Roybal, Black is such a known and beloved personality in New Mexico high school sports, the NMAA selection committee skipped the routine background check.
"They didn't even have to call anybody he was such an automatic choice," Roybal said.
After nearly a half-century of teaching and coaching, Black, 67, is considering retiring at the end of this school year.
"I've been doing this for 42 years, so it's time to start thinking about (retiring)," Black said.
And if Black does step down, Roybal said his leadership will be missed.
"It would be a tremendous loss," Roybal said. "Because of all the things he does behind the scenes to help our programs, it would be a huge loss."

Two dancers at Silk Exotic in Juneau face fines after deputies said, they fought on stage over $1.
Dodge County deputies were called to the club at 9:30 p.m. Thursday for a report of a fight.
Investigators said two dancers, ages 19 and 23, were in a fight on the stage over a dollar from a customer. They said the customer was trying to give the dollar to one of the dancers, but the other dancer took exception and felt she had earned the dollar.
Both fell to the floor, punched and slapped each other, and then each pulled out some hair from the other head, according to deputies. One of the woman is pregnant.
The fight was broken up by other dancers and customers.
Both were cited on suspicion of disorderly conduct.

For the toad
- 8 rashers streaky bacon
- 8 good-quality pork sausage
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
Onions are endlessly versatile and an essential ingredient in countless recipes. Native to Asia…
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
For the gravy
Preheat the oven to fan 200C/conventional 220C/ gas 7. Sift the flour and a make a well in the centre and crack in the egg. Beat lightly,then gradually pour in half the milk and water, beating all the time to form a smooth,thick batter. Continue for 2 minutes,then stir in the remaining liquid. (The batter can be made several hours ahead of time, although contrary to popular opinion it is not improved by standing.)
Wrap a bacon rasher around each sausage then put them, spaced apart, in a large roasting tin (preferably metal). Scatter over the onion and drizzle with oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the bacon and sausages are starting to colour and the onion is tinged brown at the edges.
Remove from the oven and quickly pour the batter over the sausages. Return to the oven for a further 35-40 minutes until the batter is crisp and well risen.
Meanwhile,make the gravy. Heat the vegetable oil in a small pan, add the onion and fry gently for 5 minutes until softened and lightly coloured. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the mustard, Worcestershire or soy sauce and stock and bring to the boil, stirring. Simmer for 15 minutes, then taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Serve the toad with cabbage or broccoli and lashings of gravy.

Terrible, terrible recipe. The batter measurements are just wrong, even without using all the 300ml of liquid the batter was too thin. Despite being in the oven for 45 minutes the batter didn't cook through and was just mush and was entirely inedible. From now on I'm sticking to my trusted nigella recipe for yorkshires!
Thought i'd just comment with a better recipe for the batter. It's easy batter as you only need equal quantities of each ingredient. Use a cup (the American style measuring cups are fantastic and only cost a couple of quid from the supermarket), a mug may be too much but a large tea cup would be perfect. Use a cup full of plain flour, a cup full of cracked open eggs, and a cup full of milk and water, I find half and half milk to water is perfect. Add salt and herbs like parsley whilst you are mixing. Make the batter an hour before you use it and whack it in the fridge for an hour. Make sure the fat in the pan is boiling hot before you add the batter. I personally cook the sausages in bacon for 15 mins in oven first, then I chop them in half and use a deep muffin tin to make 16 individual toad in the holes. The batter rises far better than in a large tin and they look lovely!
I had to top up the batter with more flour when making this recipe to stop it having a soggy bottom, just enough so that the mixture is thick and not runny. I also found that heating the oil in the bottom of the dish first really helped too.
I didn't put onions in (as neither me nor my friends like them) and have used both Cumberland and Lincolnshire sausages in the past to give more flavour.
I absolutely love this and my friends insist I make this whenever I offer to cook so it must be good!
Oh my goodness, just finished making and trying to eat this, sorry BBC Good Food this recipe is just awful. It didn't rise and it was just soggy all the way though. I tried your other recipe for Yorkshire puddings for Christmas Dinner and it was a major hit! But this recipe was one serious failure! I think it needs more eggs to rise properly. never mind if at first you don't succeed try and try again!
Cooked for a little longer to firm up a little given the earlier feedback about soggy bottoms, that being said my husband likes a puddingy Yorkshire so was very happy with the result.
I fried off the mushrooms and sausages for a few mins and then mixed the onions into the base together with a few chopped thyme leave and some S&P which gave a lovely flavour. Added an extra stock cube to beef up the gravy a bit. Just right for a cold night, I'll cook again.

Tips (2)
It's obvious that the batter mix ratios are way out on this recipe - I use equal quantities of flour, milk and eggs - 1/2 cup of each works for this recipe.
Add sage, mustard powder and plenty of salt and pepper for a well seasoned Yorkshire Pudding.
Also, if you cook the sausages in the oven while the fat for the pudding is heating you're likely to burn them, I prefer to grill them separately and add them to the already smoking oil just a couple of minutes before adding the batter mix.
Finally, to make a really good onion gravy will take much longer than the cooking time for the Toad - start it well in advance.
In conclusion : While the basic recipe idea is good, the execution is all wrong. No wonder folks are struggling with it and posting negative comments.

KINKMAKER - Buster Crabbe's movies are not "kinky" ( although I bet many female Flash Gordon fans secretly wished that Flash would indeed flash) but the twists and turns of the convoluting plots would kink a knot in a Mingian's mind.

ZINGMAKER - in the movies in the 30's it was believed that the heart had strings that went ZING! They were right. What with Obamacare the pacemaker will be replaced with a zingmaker. Unlike a pacemaker the zingmaker waits five minutes after your heart has stopped beating and then zaps it with a super jolt. This saves electricity.
Now I will dig up the song "Zing Went The Strings of My heart" and we can have a nice sing-a-long here.
no luck

Dang, dang, dang. I was hoping for the Coasters but...
Anyway here are the lyrics...
[Spoken] Never could carry a tune, never knew where to start
You came along when everything was wrong and put a song in my heart.
When you smiled at me, I heard a melody
It haunted me from the start
Something inside of me started a symphony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart
'Twas like a breath of spring, heard a robin sing
About a nest set apart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart
I still recall the thrill, guess I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart

Registered: 06/05/10
Posts: 1554
Loc: Lower Aberdeen, Mississippi
PRONUNCIATION: (BEL-free)
1. A bell tower; also the part of a tower where a bell is hung.
2. Head. Usually in the phrase to have bats in the belfry, meaning to be crazy.
From Old French berfrei, from High German bergan (to protect or shelter) and Old English frith (peace). Originally the term was berfrei and it was a siege tower or watchtower. Since it had bells, people began to think the term was belfry.
Ultimately from the Indo-European root bhergh- (high), which also gave us iceberg, borough, burg, burglar, bourgeois, fortify, force, bourgeois, inselberg, and sforzando. Earliest documented use: 1300.
SELFRY - the universal right to take photographs of one's self, clothed, naked, or otherwise, and to paste these images on the world wide Internet.

The Defense Systems Acquisition Management course meets the needs of defense industry program managers in today's dynamic environment, providing the latest information related to:
Taught by the Defense Acquisition University (DAU) professors and other guest speakers, the course uses the same acquisition policy information provided to DoD students who attend DAU courses for formal acquisition certification.
Target Audience: Industry program managers, assistant program managers, systems engineers, industry personnel serving on DoD Integrated Product Teams, and other personnel that must interface with DoD program offices involved in program development and execution. The result of successful completion of this course is a comprehensive understanding of the environment and driving forces affecting program managers which will significantly increase awareness and effectiveness in dealing with programmatic issues. The course is also open to a limited number of government mid- to upper-level managers, tuition free. Government personnel may apply the DSAM course towards fulfillment of government continuous learning (CL) points. DSAM counts for 34 CL points, or 3.4 Continuous Education Units (CEU).
Course of InstructionManagement in the Acquisition Environment
The first block of instruction will identify the major participants in the DoD acquisition process and their roles. It will cover the 3 DoD decision support sectors (JCIDS, DAMS, and PPBE) that comprise the DoD acquisition process.
Acquisition Life Cycle Process
This block will focus on the objectives, responsibilities, activities, interrelationships, and concerns of each phase of the system acquisition life cycle. This includes research and development, program initiation, and the transition from development to production. Instruction will cover the DoD 5000 series (directive, instruction, and guidebook).
Challenges to Program Management
This block covers diverse topics that are critical to the success of the DoD program manager. Students working in assigned teams will research and analyze these topics and will culminate in a short presentation to the entire class.
Application of Acquisition Procedures
This portion of instruction covers the specific application of the acquisition procedures and the management issues currently facing the DoD program manager. The course will end with a detailed case study where participants develop an acquisition strategy using a program structure chart reflecting an instructor assigned acquisition scenario to carry an acquisition program through its entire life cycle.
Class Size
Plan ahead! The class is limited to 42 students, and registrations are accepted on a first paid, first enrolled basis.
This intense 4-1/2 day seminar presents current government acquisition programs and requirements and, through guided student interaction and team exercises, applies them to the realities of industry operations. In order for you to gain maximum benefit from this course and for others to gain from various perspectives and experience, all students are expected to fully participate in all scheduled course activities. Therefore all travel arrangements should be made so that students are present until the course ends at 12:00 noon on Friday.

Learning Objectives & Outcomes
Charting Your Course: Drafting Learning Objectives and Selecting Assessment
Event description:
Many college teachers are using methods of evaluating learning that are more authentically related to later uses of learning than are conventional tests. The primary purpose of student "performance assessment" is to provide feedback to student and teacher so that learning can be facilitated. Examples of such assessment (in addition to research papers and annotated bibliographies) include: case studies, simulations, graphic representations of concepts, journals, portfolios, peer assessment, and group work assessment. "Classroom assessment is the term popularized by Pat Cross and Tom Angelo in their book, Classroom Assessment Techniques, to describe a variety of non-graded methods of getting feedback on student learning. Our discussion will focus on assessments that are learning experiences as well as thoughtfully constructed evaluation devices.

Italian president nominates center-left official as premierBy ELISABETTA POVOLEDO
The New York Times | April 25,2013AP Photo
Italian Democratic Party lawmaker Enrico Letta makes his statement to the media after talks with Italian President Giorgio Napolitano, in which Letta was appointed premier and will try to form a government to end Italys political paralysis and set the country back on the path of reform and economic growth.ROME President Giorgio Napolitano on Wednesday nominated Enrico Letta, the deputy head of the Democratic Party, as prime minister, tasked with forming a government to lead the country out of weeks of political impasse after inconclusive national elections.
Letta announced that he would consult with the countrys leaders Thursday to discuss its fragile and unprecedented political situation, and ask for their support.
We paved the way to form a government that the country urgently needs and has too long waited for, Napolitano said soon after Lettas nomination.
Napolitano praised Lettas cultural background, government experience and international standing, calling his profile excellent for the complicated task of guiding Italy in a turbulent time. He added that there was no alternative to his candidacy.
Letta listed unemployment and the economic crisis as among the top issues that the new government should address. He also said Italy needed to reduce the number of Parliament members, change its elections law and restore the credibility of its political class.
Letta, 46, is considered a moderate figure capable of reuniting the embattled, center-left Democratic Party with Prime Minister Mario Montis Civic Choice group and the center-right. Letta is a nephew of Gianni Letta, a close aide to Silvio Berlusconi, the former prime minister.
He has held government posts related to European and economic affairs, and he has also been a member of the European Parliaments Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs.
Former Prime Minister Giuliano Amato had also been named by Italian news media as a front-runner.
Letta said he would meet with political leaders Thursday to gauge what kind of support his government might have. If he believes he can be successful, he will accept Napolitanos nomination and present a list of ministers for his Cabinet. He will then ask for a vote of confidence in both houses of Parliament.
Napolitano was re-elected as president for an unprecedented second term over the weekend after lawmakers failed to choose an alternative candidate. His precondition for renewing his mandate was that the political parties overcome their differences to form a government.
Failure to do so would result in the dissolution of Parliament, new elections and his own resignation, Napolitano warned lawmakers at his inaugural address.
Elections at the end of February split Parliament into three mutually hostile political groups, and efforts by the Democratic Party, which narrowly won the vote, to form a government were inconclusive.
Many Democratic Party lawmakers refused to make a deal with the party headed by Berlusconi, the controversial political leader who has dominated Italian politics for two decades. He was plagued by personal scandals and criticism that his governments economic policies did not spare Italy the brunt of the eurozone crisis.
The anti-establishment Five Star Movement, which won 25 percent of the national vote riding a wave of widespread frustration with anger toward the political class, has refused to make any alliances.
Napolitano, 87, was re-elected Saturday. He reluctantly accepted, chastising lawmakers for leading the country into political paralysis and telling them to quickly find a compromise or face the consequences.
In a highly emotional speech, he also criticized politicians for failing to approve urgent institutional and economic reforms, even as Italys economy continues to shrink. The country is in the grip of the worst economic recession since the end of World War II.
The current crisis, Napolitano said, is the result of a long series of omissions and flaws, closures and irresponsibility.
Though Italians have demanded deep-rooted changes of their political leaders and a renewal of the existing political system, such demands have fallen on deaf ears, he said. Responses have been slow in coming, and are distorted by political tactics and calculations. Politicians have ignored demands for greater transparency, moral rectitude and a significant reduction in the cost of politics, he added.MORE IN Wire NewsUNIVERSAL CITY, Calif.

In reference to the two letters in the Refugio County Press edition March 27.
Robert Shultz and Martha Lamson are bellyaching, crying, groaning and moaning, still whining and whimpering, about the two candidates who lost their $50,000 jobs, and were legally removed from the November ballot.
I noticed Shultz said he was not impressed by my Bible verses. God gave all scripture to everyone.
There is a Bible verse, "infants need milk to grow."
Shultz also said, he uses newspaper print to feed his tomatoes. I can imagine the tomatoes absorb black ink, then Shultz eats tomatoes contaminated with the ink.
Martha Lamson was absolutely lost, she said, I'd like to know how that rule, election code section 162.015 wormed itself into the state Legislature.
Little does Martha know how a law is passed in the state of Texas.
Both are too lazy to go online and download the election rules.
I am going to ask Robert and Martha to open their Bibles and study, Romans 13:1 "Everybody is subject to the governing authorities established by God."
Therefore, Robert and Martha need to accept authority.
Refugio county administrator, Honorable Rachel Garcia and Honorable Bernice Macias were doing their jobs, through the vested authority of the state of Texas and the Secretary of State.
Written records are filed; election rule section 162.06 affiliation by taking an oath (b) I hereby affiliate myself with the (candidate signature of Democrat or
Republican Party) signed and dated by the candidate, that wants to be on the ballot.
Robert Shultz and Martha Lamson, passed judgment on themselves, through their emotional status that controlled their intelligence.
All because, two candidates did the opposite of election rules, lost their jobs and removed from the November ballot.
This reminds me when God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, Moses followers did the opposite, they "wandered in the wilderness" for 40 years.
In American history, George W. Bush, did the opposite of the Ten Commandments and left American citizens, wandering in the wilderness for 40 years.

Hi, I'm on the faculty here at College of the Atlantic (COA) in Bar Harbor Maine.
By training, I'm a physical chemist, but because we're so small (~325 students) I get to teach all of the chemistry classes here at the college. If we had departments, I'd be 'the chemistry department" – but that doesn't quite fit since all of us here try to wear 'human ecologist' hats as much as possible. Indeed, COA grants only one undergraduate degree, the B.A. in Human Ecology.
I'm at such a place because I'm interested in how chemistry can help us understand how our world impacts us and how we impact our world. I'm interested in why we believe this odd notion that everything (?) is made up of these little atoms bouncing to and fro. (And in what this perspective DOESN'T explain and how it may evolve into something more useful.) I'm interested in how this perspective can explain why you can see through windows and not walls. I'm interested how this perspective explains where the atmosphere and the oceans have come from – and where they go to. And I'm interested in how this somewhat odd perspective can make us more responsible citizens.
To me, the latter includes becoming more aware:
* of the materials that we use,
* of the sources of those materials,
* of the impacts that the production, use and disposal of such materials has on our world, and
* of the impacts that such impacts, in turn, have on us.
Some of my current guiding principles include:
* nobody can do nothing
* the non-human world isn't any kinder or more thoughtful than the human
* if you give them a chance, most people will try to do good things
* screw-ups are inevitable.
* so diversity is good in that it limits the impacts of any screw-ups..

Since we live in a digital age, using speakers to broadcast your company name and logo is the perfect way to ensure that your message will be heard. These products are unique and easy to brand, making them ideal vehicles for taking your organization's identity to the next level. Additionally, they are often prominently displayed on desktops, tables and even in the kitchen so people can listen to music (and think about your brand) while they cook. Travel speakers are another great option because they can be transported back and forth between home and office. But whichever style you choose, recipients of all ages will love these fun and function products, that remind them of your organization's mission, every time they listen to music or watch a movie.

With Tuesday marking the 68th birthday of former "Cheers" star Ted Danson, are you ready to revisit a place where everybody knows your name? Click on to see what the show's stars are up to today.
Ted Danson played Boston Red Sox pitcher turned bartender Sam Malone. His character had on-again-off-again relationships with both Shelley Long's and Kirstie Alley's characters over the course of the show.
Danson has seen a career resurgence as of late, with regular roles on the TV series "Damages" and "Bored to Death" and starring in the last four seasons of "CSI" from 2011 through 2015. He most recently starred in the second season of the FX anthology series "Fargo" and makes recurring appearances as his "CSI" character on "CSI: Cyber." Danson has worked nonstop since the end of "Cheers" in film and television. His film credits include "Made in America" and "Saving Private Ryan," and he's starred in the sitcoms "Becker" and "Ink" and made several appearances as himself in "Curb Your Enthusiasm."
Shelley Long played the over-cultured and overqualified waitress Diane Chambers for the first five seasons of the show.
Long most recently had a cameo on the Nickelodeon sitcom "Instant Mom" and appeared in the 2014 indie drama "A Place in the Heart." She's also had a recurring role on the sitcom "Modern Family" (pictured) and appeared in the 2013 TV movies "Holiday Road Trip" and "Merry In-Laws," playing Mrs. Claus opposite her "Cheers" co-star Geroge Wendt as Mr. Claus in the last one. Long has kept busy acting in television and films since leaving "Cheers" in 1987 (She returned for the finale in 1993). In between "Cheers" appearances, she starred in such films as "The Money Pit" and "Outrageous Fortune." She also starred as Carol Brady in "The Brady Bunch Movie" and its sequel.
Rhea Perlman played Carla Tortelli, an obnoxious and brash bartender and single mother of six.
Perlman, seen here with her husband Danny DeVito in November 2014, most recently joined the cast of the sitcom "The Mindy Project" as a recurring character. She also joined fellow "Cheers" star Kirstie Alley as part of the main cast of the TV Land sitcom "Kirstie," which lasted only 12 episodes before being canceled in July 2014. She's also had recent cameos on the sitcoms "The Neighbors" and "Hot in Cleveland" and had a minor role in the 2012 movie "The Sessions." Perlman has frequently appeared in stage, television and film roles since "Cheers" came to an end. Her other guest roles since "Cheers" include a stint on Alley's semiautobiographical show "Fat Actress," Ted Danson's sitcom "Becker" and Kelsey Grammer's sitcom "Frasier." She also had a recurring role on the television drama "Kate Brasher" and the HBO drama "Hung," and had her own show, "Pearl," which ran from 1996 to 1997.
Woody Harrelson played the none-too-bright Indiana farm boy turned bartender Woody Boyd starting with the show's fourth season.
Harrelson has gone on to become a movie star since his run on "Cheers," earning Academy Award nominations for his roles in 2009's "The Messenger" and 1996's "The People vs. Larry Flynt." He's also starred in "The Hunger Games" movie series as well as in movies such as "Now You See Me," "Zombieland," "No Country for Old Men," "A Prairie Home Companion," "North Country," "Kingpin" and "Natural Born Killers." In July 2014, he received the eighth Emmy nomination of his career (including one win in five nominations for "Cheers") for his role opposite Matthew McConaughey (who also was nominated) in HBO's "True Detective," but both lost out to Bryan Cranston for the final season of "Breaking Bad."
Kirstie Alley joined the show at the start of its sixth season as Rebecca Howe, stepping in to run the bar after Sam and Diane broke up and Sam set sail around the world.
Alley most recently appeared in the romantic-comedy "Accidental Love" and had a cameo in a January 2015 episode of the sitcom "The Middle." Before that, she reunited with her "Cheers" co-star Perlman for the since-canceled TV Land sitcom "Kirstie," this after the two also joined forces for the failed 2012 sitcom pilot "The Manzanis." In 2011 she appeared as a contestant on "Dancing with the Stars," ultimately finishing in second place to NFL wide receiver Hines Ward. She also recently starred in and was the executive producer of the reality series "Kirstie Alley's Big Life." Open about her struggles with weight gain over the years, Alley was the national spokeswoman for Jenny Craig and poked fun at her weight issues in the semiautobiographical comedy "Fat Actress." Alley has also appeared in several film and television roles since "Cheers" ended in 1993. Among them are the "Look Who's Talking" movies opposite John Travolta, "Deconstructing Harry" and "Drop Dead Gorgeous." On television, she starred in the sitcom "Veronica's Closet" from 1997 to 2000.
Kelsey Grammer played Dr. Frasier Crane, a pompous psychiatrist who joins the Cheers gang when he starts dating Diane. He is eventually left at the altar by her.
After the success of the "Cheers" spin-off "Frasier," which saw Grammer win four Emmys for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series over its run from 1993 to 2004, and winning a Golden Globe for the short-lived Starz drama "Boss," Grammer joined with Martin Lawrence for the FX sitcom "Partners," which aired for 10 episodes during the summer of 2014 before being canceled. Grammer, who also starred in the failed sitcoms "Hank" and "Back to You" after "Frasier" ended, is also known for voicing Sideshow Bob on "The Simpsons" since 1990 and his vocals can also be heard in the animated films "Toy Story 2" and "Teacher's Pet." He's also consistently landed movie roles since wrapping up "Frasier," with some of his most recent movies including "Think Like a Man Too," "The Expendables 3," "Transformers: Age of Extinction," the 2009 remake of "Fame," "Swing Vote" and "X-Men: The Last Stand."
What would a bar be without its regulars? You could always count on know-it-all mailman Cliff Clavin (John Ratzenberger) and lazy accountant Norm Peterson (George Wendt) to be parked at the end of the bar.
Wendt most recently was a regular on the TBS sitcom "Clipped," which was canceled in October 2015 after one season. He's also made regular TV cameos over the past few years, including bit parts on "Franklin & Bash," "Kirstie," "Harry's Law," "Hot in Cleveland" and "Portlandia." Wendt also reprised his "Cheers" role in animated form for "Family Guy" in 2007, and on five other shows other the years, including "Frasier." Wendt is also known for his appearances on "Saturday Night Live" in the early 1990s as Bob Swerski, aka one of the Chicago Bears "Superfans" ("Daaaa Bears!"), a role he has also recently reprised for State Farm Insurance commercials alongside Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
Dubbed Pixar's "good luck charm," Ratzenberger has voiced a role in every one of the studio's films, most notably Hamm the Piggy Bank in all three "Toy Story" films. On television, Ratzenberger competed on "Dancing With the Stars" in 2007 and traveled the country as host of the Travel Channel documentary series "Made in America" between 2004 and 2008. He was a recurring character the two seasons of the FX comedy "Legit" and has had recent cameos on the TV series "Drop Dead Diva," "CSI," "Bones" and "Franklin & Bash."
After being left at the altar by Diane, Frasier found love in fellow psychologist Dr. Lillith Sternin, played by Bebe Neuwirth.
Neuwirth now is a regular on the new CBS drama "Madam Secretary." She also has recently appeared in several episodes each of the TV series "Blue Bloods" and "The Good Wife," and had a guest-role alongside her former "Cheers" co-star Ted Danson on the HBO series "Bored to Death." Like her ex-TV husband, Kelsey Grammer, she also appeared in the big-screen remake of "Fame." Neuwirth has worked constantly in film, television and on the stage since "Cheers," and won her second Tony Award -- for playing Velma Kelley in the Broadway revival production of the musical "Chicago" -- 1997. In 2010, she returned to Broadway to create the role of Morticia Addams in the original production of "The Addams Family" opposite Nathan Lane.
For the first three seasons, Nicholas Colasanto played Ernie "Coach" Pantusso. Colasanto died of a heart ailment on Feb. 12, 1985, at the age of 61.
"Cheers" had several notable recurring characters over the years, starting with Carla's ex-husband Nick Tortelli, played by Dan Hedaya. The character appeared in six episodes and would eventually get a short-lived spin-off series, along with Jean Kasem (left), called "The Tortellis."
Hedaya is perhaps best known for roles in "Blood Simple," "The Usual Suspects," "Clueless" and "Mulholland Drive." His most recent work includes cameos in the TV shows "Blue Bloods," "Gotham" and "The Mindy Project."
Frances Sternhagen may have only made seven appearances on "Cheers" as Cliff Clavin's mother Esther, but she made the most of it, earning two Emmy nominations during her run on the show.
A Broadway and movie veteran, Sternhagen can claim movie roles in "Dolphin Tale," "The Mist" and "Julie and Julia," as well as TV roles on "Sex in the City," "ER," "Parenthood" and "The Closer," among her post-"Cheers" credits. She most recently had a supporting role in the 2014 romantic-comedy "And So It Goes," starring Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton.
Roger Rees played English multi-millionaire industrialist Robin Colcord, appearing in 17 episodes starting with the first episode of the eighth season. His character spent most of his time on the show as a love interest for Kirstie Alley's gold-digging Rebecca Howe.

Reviews for this host's other properties
Its an absolutly lovely appartement in a stone house over the cliffs of the clear sea of Split where we took a refreshing swim. 5 minutes from the harbour and bus stop. The hosts are very helpful and friendly. The room is clean and tidy.
Soggiorno terribile!! La proprietario fa credere che la casa sia piena di ogni confort. Dopo aver pagato ci siamo ritrovati al 3º giorno senza aria condizionata causa impianto vecchio e senza manutenzione; a seguito di vari reclami e innumerevoli telefonate non siamo nemmeno stati rimborsati per il disguido dopo averci garantito un rimborso che dopo mesi non è ancora arrivato. Nessuna scusa, pulizia pessima, doccia rotta e nessuna assistenza.
Esperienza da non rifare assolutamente, solo soldi sprecati!!!!!
Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Urlaub, weswegen ich gerne noch länger gebliegen wäre:
- die Unterkunft war genau so, wie sie im Internet dargestellt wurde
- ordentlich, sauber, viele Haushaltsgeräte vorhanden
- der Vermieter war sehr freundlich, zuvorkommend, nicht aufdringlich,
- die Fähren fahren pünktlich und zuverlässig
Die Gegend war sehr schön, viele unerschiedliche Bade- und Freizeitmöglichkeiten. Essen kann man dort sehr gut, allerdings sind die Preise teilweise unverschämt (teurer wie München).
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone
- Secure payment via SSL encryption

Gov. Scott Walker signed an executive order Wednesday, which declares a state of emergency in seven counties, according to a release.
Walker declared the state of emergency after visiting the area where floodwaters affected 640 homes and did millions of dollars in damage to local infrastructure.
The counties include Ashland, Crawford, Grant, Iowa, Richland, St. Croix and Vernon, according to the release.
The expensive and time-consuming cleanup continues in Boscobel three days after the flooding receded, but Walker said the area probably won't qualify for federal relief.
"More realistically, it's going to be something where the state will play a direct role," Walker said. "FEMA has a higher standard and we'll be monitoring that, not only here but throughout the region, to see if (the damage qualifies for federal relief)."
The problem with that is FEMA assistance provides more blanket coverage, while perhaps one-third of people won't qualify for state assistance, said Steve Braun, the head of Grand County Emergency Management.
Walker urged people to take pictures and document the damage to their properties.
Walker couldn't give a timeline for when homeowners would receive financial relief through the state programs opened up by his executive order.
"It's not going to happen in the next day or two," Walker said. "We're in it for the long haul."
Walker has directed state agencies to aid those affected by the flooding and called the Wisconsin National Guard to state active duty to assist local authorities in the recovery efforts, according to the release.
The Department of Administration is directed to work with communities to make emergency assistance funds available to eligible homeowners for rehabilitation, funds for qualifying businesses, and funds to repair public infrastructure, according to the release.
The Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection will work with affected farmers with crop damage and livestock shelter needs for assistance, according to the release. The Department of Natural Resources will provide assistance for residents and local governments concerned about well contamination.
The Office of Commissioner of Insurance will provide assistance for property owners who have been affected by flooding and need to file claims, according to the release. The Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority will provide access to emergency funding for local assistance organizations giving assistance to affected residents.
The Department of Transportation will work with local communities to make funds available for infrastructure repair and the State Patrol will help manage road traffic and closures in affected areas, according to the release. The Department of Health Services will continue to be in contact with local health departments to provide assistance and monitor water-quality concerns.
Walker also said the state Department of Transportation and possibly the Wisconsin National Guard would be working to secure an area of Highway 61 in Crawford County that has experienced landslides.
The area remains a public safety threat and the road is still closed, Walker said.

District reviews security
Like every other school in the nation, the Lisbon school district has taken another look at its security plan following the shootings at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn.
Superintendent Don Thompson, speaking at this week's board meeting, said they examined their school security plan in the wake of the Newtown shooting and also received a request for some specifics from the Ohio Attorney General's Office so the agency would have the information on file.
Thompson said he also met with the village's new police chief, Mike Abraham, and he expects the board's safety committee will meet to review the plan. The district is already required to update the plan every three years.
"We are prepared as we can be for a situation," with the understanding no plan is foolproof, Thompson said.
In other news, Thompson reported the school district is acting as fiscal agent for the county Educational Service Center as the ESC seeks a $250,000 Early Literacy Reading Readiness Grant from the state on behalf of five districts in Columbiana County.
Lisbon is one of the districts that would share in the money, should the grant be awarded. The money is specifically to help districts develop programs to ensure all third-grade students are able to meet reading proficiency requirements under the new state law requiring third-graders otherwise be held back.
Thompson said school districts could either seek a $100,000 grant individually or join with others to go after a combined $250,000 grant, which is what Lisbon opted to do.
In other action, the board:
– Approved a 2013-14 budget totaling $10.8 million, of which $8.7 million is for the general fund. Thompson noted the last levy approved by voters was in 1991 for a bond issue to fund construction of the new junior/senior high school and improvements to the elementary school.
"The board continues to operate without asking voters for additional revenue," he said.
– Hired Terry Witherow as a part-time food service worker and Katherine Callahan as a nurse's aide.
– Hired the following spring coaches: Kathy Randolph, head girls track coach; Meredith Deichler,
junior high girls track coach; Jon Burnell, junior high boys track coach; Melody Allison, assistant softball coach; and Ryan Snyder, assistant baseball coach.
– Named the following as volunteer coaches: T.K. Hiscox and Dave Tolson, softball; and Dave Rutecki and Mike Crosser, baseball.
– Accepted a donation in the amount of $12,055 from the Stadium Committee/Lisbon Community Foundation for improvements to the War Memorial at the football stadium. Thompson said this represents the final payment on a series of improvements at the stadium, with the committee raising 75 percent of the funding.
"Anyone who hasn't been there, especially at night, it's very impressive … It's something the whole village can be proud of," board President Jim Smith said of the War Memorial.
The board's next meeting is 5 p.m. Feb. 12.

- Abstract
- The GRavitational lEnsing Accuracy Testing 2008 (GREAT08) Challenge focuses on a problem that is of crucial importance for future observations in cosmology. The shapes of distant galaxies can be used to determine the properties of dark energy and the nature of gravity, because light from those galaxies is bent by gravity from the intervening dark matter. The observed galaxy images appear distorted, although only slightly, and their shapes must be precisely disentangled from the effects of pixelisation, convolution and noise. The worldwide gravitational lensing community has made significant progress in techniques to measure these distortions via the Shear TEsting Program (STEP). Via STEP, we have run challenges within our own community, and come to recognise that this particular image analysis problem is ideally matched to experts in statistical inference, inverse problems and computational learning. Thus, in order to continue the progress seen in recent years, we are seeking an infusion of new ideas from these communities. This document details the GREAT08 Challenge for potential participants.

WISC reporter Theo Keith's investigation of different approaches to investigating police shootings has helped us think through possible alternatives for Madison to consider.
In response to the questions raised by the process for reviewing Madison Police Officer Steve Heimsness's fatal shooting of Paul Heenan, Keith visited Knoxville, Tennessee where a seven member panel of citizens appointed by the Mayor and approved by the city council investigates every officer-involved incident. The panel has not only built up trust of law enforcement within the community, but has won the support of the police chief and other city leaders as well.
We're impressed with the Knoxville model. And since Madison Mayor Soglin and Police Chief Wray have both indicated a willingness to consider independent review panels, let's get this one on the table for public dialogue.

Arriving at the Volvo design studio we are greeted by Jonas Sandström, exterior designer at Volvo Trucks. "I'm in a good mood today. And why shouldn't I be when I'm looking at the friendliest-looking truck in the world?" he asks as he stands proudly next to the new Volvo FM.
From a driver point of view it can prolong your active career
"The Volvo FM is made to operate in urban environments," Jonas Sandström points out. "That means regular routes with regular stops. This vehicle will become a part of everyday community life wherever it operates. So it has to fit in. That's why we gave it a less assertive look. It's closer to the ground and the graphics give the impression that the window line is lower. Visually, we're connecting the driver with pedestrians, bicyclists and anyone else who might feel intimidated by trucks in traffic. With the new Volvo FM, it's easy to make eye contact with the driver."
Working with an established model raises a number of challenges. How far can you push change without creating something entirely new? Jonas Sandström pauses for a moment before answering. "I think it's a very successful design. We've brought the new Volvo FM into line with the rest of the family. For example, it has the same distinctive headlights as the new Volvo FH. But we've retained the characteristics that made the previous model so popular. It's familiar but with a little more attitude and a lot more character," he says.
The Volvo FM is an exceedingly flexible truck. According to Jonas Sandström, it's designed to look the part, too. "The rounded corners express the efficiency and drive of the Volvo FM. The one-piece steel front lid is not only aesthetically pleasing, but aerodynamically superior too. All in all, it's a friendly, safe and hard working truck."

A woman was shocked to find a piece of razor blade hidden inside a Dunkin Donuts croissant.
Priscilla Salas visited a Dunkin' Donuts in Windam, Conn. to get a croissant, as she had done several times in the past. According to WVIT NBC Connecticut, Salas reported feeling a sharp pain after biting into the pastry. Upon further inspection, the source of the pain ended up being metal shards from a razor blade.
Dunkin' Donuts' corporate office told Salas that the metal could possibly be from a box cutter and that it ended up in the croissant when it was at a distribution center prior to being sold in the store.
In a statement, Dunkin Donuts called this an isolated incident and has apologized to Salas.

This illustration shows the Milky Way galaxy's inner and outer halos. A halo is a spherical cloud of stars surrounding a galaxy. Astronomers have proposed that the Milky Way's halo is composed of two populations of stars. The age of the stars in the inner halo, according to measurements by the Paranal Observatory, is 11.5 billion years old. The measurements suggest the inner-halo stars are younger than the outer-halo population, some of which could be 13.5 billion years old.
