Our 12" giant squid stuffed animal can stretch out to 22" with his tentacles, just a fraction of the size of an actual giant squid. Did you know these deep sea creatures can grow up to 43 feet and have the largest eyes in the animal kingdom? Our stuffed squid design mimics the real thing with large eyes, 8 arms, 2 extra-long tentacles, and deep red coloring. Made from fine fabrics, it's realistic and super soft too.
I bought this cuddly squid as an accessory for a costume party and was very happy with it. Not only is it soft and cuddly, it is also anatomically correct (it even has a tiny beak). Without a doubt, this is the most adorable squid that I have ever had the pleasure of encountering.

Stonington - In the densely settled village of Stonington Borough, Dodge Paddock and the adjacent Beal Preserve provide a rare pocket of unbuilt landscape, with dirt paths instead of sidewalks leading past tall meadow grasses instead of manicured lawns.
The property, between Little Narragansett Bay and the end of Wall Street, took a pummeling during Superstorm Sandy last fall. The tidal force of the storm tore a gaping hole in the seawall at the northeast corner of the property. It flattened dunes at the other end and threw tons of sand, heavy rocks and debris onto the meadow.
"It's a gorgeous piece of land, but it's so fraught with issues," said Beth Sullivan, one of the Stonington stewardship representatives for the Avalonia Land Conservancy, which owns the parcels that total about 3.6 acres. "This is maintained by a few of us volunteers, but now this is way beyond the scope of what a couple of guys and ladies with shovels can do."
The area, just a few feet above sea level, has long been prone to drainage problems from the borough stormwater that flows through there, causing a small pond to stagnate and become a haven for mosquito breeding. The storm worsened the problem, plugging one drainage pipe and breaking another beyond repair. Tidal surge flooded the paddock, once a grazing area for livestock and the site of a pottery factory and a sawmill in the 1800s, along with the homes that ring the property.
Avalonia volunteers and contractors, Sullivan said, gathered the storm debris and rocks into piles and shored up areas where the seawall was undermined by filling a gully next to the wall with rubble tossed ashore by Sandy. But the organization is still figuring out how to remedy other problems worsened by the storm, trying to balance its mission to preserve places in their natural state as much as possible, while also accounting for the unique circumstances of a property in the middle of a village neighborhood, plus the realities of rising sea levels and increasing frequency of intense storms.
"Avalonia's responsibility is to the land, but do we also bear a responsibility to protect the neighbors?" Sullivan asked. "We can't fight Mother Nature, and we can't manage this as a manicured urban park. We met with townspeople in November, and some want us to do things immediately. They don't understand it takes time."
Avalonia has gotten help from the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection. After doing some elevation surveys and assessing the damage, Roger Wolfe, mosquito management coordinator for DEEP, said he and colleagues have developed a plan to dig out a swale to improve drainage and allow more tidal flushing of the pond.
"That should eliminate the mosquito breeding problem, and allow some fish access for biological mosquito control," he said. "We're putting a permit application together."
DEEP plans to do the work at the property, he said. But people need to understand that shorelines are dynamic, he said, and attempts to totally prevent the reshaping power of future storms like Sandy would just be futile.
"Things are not going to go back the way they were," he said. "There is a huge educational component to this."
As a nonprofit agency, Avalonia doesn't have the money to repair the broken seawall, Sullivan said, and even if did, it probably wouldn't. The tidal surge of Sandy found its way over, under and through the wall, and future big storms would do the same, she said.
"Fixing this would be really expensive," she said, looking over the gap in the wall. "The water just funnels right though here. This (gap) may just stand here as a testament to the power of the storm."

Broadcast 6.30pm on 21/07/2004
GEORGE NEGUS: Well, a few weeks back now on June 25, water finally made it onto the national political agenda when the Federal, Victorian, NSW, South Australian and Queensland governments all signed what was correctly hailed as an historic agreement the National Water Initiative. Basically, it's aimed at fairer water use across State borders, compensating farmers for reductions in their water allocation and a commitment to restore the embattled Murray. But how will it all work? Indeed, will it work? Well, you could say our studio guest is perfectly placed to answer some if not all of those questions. He's the CEO of the Australian Water Association the national body that promotes sustainable water management. Chris Davis, welcome.
CHRIS DAVIS: Hi. GEORGE NEGUS: Good to see you. How was my potted version of the national water agreement?CHRIS DAVIS: Not bad. Not bad. GEORGE NEGUS: Basically correct? CHRIS DAVIS: Yeah. GEORGE NEGUS: So this National Water Initiative that we now have in place which John Howard himself described as a "make or break thing"... CHRIS DAVIS: Mm-hm. GEORGE NEGUS: ...I ask whether it's gonna work and how it'll work. What do you think? CHRIS DAVIS: It's a good high-level commitment. But we're a bit fearful that it might get watered down by the States somehow... GEORGE NEGUS: If you pardon the expression. CHRIS DAVIS: Yes, afraid so. Sorry. Puns are inevitable when you work with water. GEORGE NEGUS: What is it about us, Chris, that makes us feel as though we can treat water just like anything else when we know how absolutely essential it is critical to the eventual long-term survival of the country and we're arguing about who owns it, who can trade in it, what prices should be charged for it, who controls it? I mean, it's rubbish! Total common sense, nothing more than common sense, should tell us there should be a national water policy that everybody has to abide by so you wouldn't have to say you hope the States don't water it down. What's going on? Are we silly? CHRIS DAVIS: Well, I think we inherited an attitude to water when the first settlers came here and thought, "This was an awful landscape. "It must look more like Europe." And that sort of attitude seems to have persisted. And governments, successive governments, have encouraged people to farm and to use irrigation water, and policies were in place to give people property and take it away if they didn't develop it, chop all the trees down and use as much water as possible. So families have inherited farms that aren't economically sized, that use old-fashioned technology, don't irrigate effectively, and they are expected to be able to pick this up and turn it into something that's much more efficient. Now, that's nice in theory but very difficult in practice. GEORGE NEGUS: What's the nub of the problem? If you had the power in the stroke of your pen, now this initiative is in place, what would be next as far as you're concerned? CHRIS DAVIS: Goodness, that's an interesting question. I think probably you have to look at how we use water and how much it earns for the community and weigh up every megalitre of water that's used against the value to the community and to society as a whole. Some of those uses that don't earn much money and do a fair amount of damage probably need to get chopped off. GEORGE NEGUS: Water restrictions, people moan and whinge about the whole time. And we've got different water restrictions in every capital city and district in the country. CHRIS DAVIS: Yes. GEORGE NEGUS: That's the tip of the iceberg, surely? CHRIS DAVIS: It is. Cities do have a water problem. Virtually every capital city is facing some sort of stress in water, particularly Perth, Sydney and Melbourne. They all have a big challenge for the future. And things like desalination, much more recycling, higher prices all have to come in. But ultimately, cities are pretty much sustainable because they earn a lot of money, they can desalinate water if they have to, they can take steps to remediate them. But in the rural context, if you screw up what happens in the rivers, it's gonna take a long time, if ever, to actually turn it around. GEORGE NEGUS: Is the Murray in as serious trouble as we hear? CHRIS DAVIS: I believe it is. I'm not a river expert. But the scientists are committed to the fact that the Murray is under serious threat. And it's not getting any better at the moment. There have been some improvements but there's more to be done. The National Water Initiative has actually allocated 500 million and the States have come on board to assist with that to allocate to looking after six icon sites. But that's only the beginning. There's more to be done on top of that. GEORGE NEGUS: 'Cause it's both an urban and a rural problem, isn't it? I was looking at some figures just before you came in. In Melbourne, for instance, they use eight per cent of Victoria's region... eight per cent in Melbourne and nine per cent in Victoria's regional towns, right? As distinct from 77 per cent, the greatest share, going to irrigation. CHRIS DAVIS: That's right. Yeah. So irrigation is the big game in town. GEORGE NEGUS: So what do we do with that without wrecking the entire agricultural industry in this country? CHRIS DAVIS: Well, I think you've got to put it all in perspective. People get very hot under the collar about cotton and rice. But, actually, cotton and rice use about 20 per cent of irrigation water, but they actually produce a fair proportion of total agricultural output. More than half of irrigation water gets used on pasture and some grains and that earns very little money. So I think it's that half that's not earning much that we really need to think carefully about in the future. GEORGE NEGUS: That sort of reflects, in a way, doesn't it, our national collective ignorance... CHRIS DAVIS: Yes. GEORGE NEGUS: ...of the nature of this problem? CHRIS DAVIS: I think the problem is that... I'm a water engineer from way back, and the culture we had was to give people as much water as they wanted at whatever pressure they liked, anytime, day or night. We did that so successfully, now everybody believes that it's their graven right to have as much water anytime, day or night, as they wish. It's only recently we've realised that actually people need to be connected to the environment and realise you need restrictions every now and then so people understand that you can't just have as much as you please to do with whatever you please. GEORGE NEGUS: As well as those imposed restrictions, you'd like to think that we're becoming more environmentally smart and we'd have a few self-imposed restrictions on how we go about water. CHRIS DAVIS: I think so. And that's a thing we talk about education. My association's getting very active in that. But, in fact, you can't just tell people stuff. They've got to actually take it on as a social norm. It's only when people have a norm in society, like people don't beat their wives too much, and it's not because it's illegal, it's because it's just not the right thing to do. Water needs the same sort of situation. GEORGE NEGUS: It's a race to educate the public before we run out. CHRIS DAVIS: Yeah. GEORGE NEGUS: Is running out a ridiculous suggestion? CHRIS DAVIS: No. It's very hotly debated. And, in fact, one of my very longstanding members has written a passionate piece in our latest journal to say that Sydney desperately needs another dam. Now, the government has committed and most of the community has agreed that we shouldn't have another dam. But he points out, at the moment we're simply using more than we've got and we're not doing anything dramatic to improve it so, ergo, we must build the dam. So I think what we need to do in Sydney, at least, is step in and do something really aggressive about recycling and using less. And that takes community commitment as much as anything else.GEORGE NEGUS: Chris, good to talk to you. CHRIS DAVIS: Thank you. GEORGE NEGUS: I hope we're wrong when we say water will run out or could run out.

United States District Court, S.D. New York
September 18, 2014
OTIS BELL, Plaintiff,v.COUNTY OF WESTCHESTER, Defendant.
LORNA G. SCHOFIELD, District Judge.
While in the custody of the Westchester County Department of Corrections ("WCDOC") as a pre-trial detainee in 2012, Plaintiff Otis Bell stepped in a poorly maintained shower drain and injured himself. Plaintiff then brought this action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against Defendant County of Westchester (the "County") for violating his constitutional rights. Defendant moves for summary judgment dismissing Plaintiff's Complaint in its entirety. For the reasons discussed below, Defendant's motion is granted.
I. Background
A. Factual Background
The facts are taken from Defendant's Statement and Plaintiff's Counterstatement pursuant to Local Rule 56.1. As required on a motion for summary judgment, the facts are construed in the light most favorable to Plaintiff, the non-moving party.
From May 15, 2012, through April 16, 2013, Plaintiff was in the custody of WCDOC as a pre-trial detainee. On November 15, 2012, at approximately 7:30 p.m., Plaintiff was showering at the jail when he stepped away from the shower stream to soap himself. While washing his head, some soap entered Plaintiff's eyes and temporarily blinded him. With his eyes closed, Plaintiff took several steps in an attempt to locate the shower stream so that he could wash the soap out of his eyes. As Plaintiff tried to find the shower, his right foot stepped into a recessed drain. As a result of stepping into the faulty drain, Plaintiff fell onto the shower floor on his back, and his head struck a plastic chair.
The block officer, who was sitting at his desk outside the shower room, heard Plaintiff's fall and called out asking whether everything was okay. Plaintiff reported that he had fallen, that his back was in pain and that he had a tingling sensation in his right leg. Plaintiff then managed to get up, dry and dress himself. Approximately an hour later, Plaintiff was taken to the medical unit in the jail, where he was given pain medication and admitted for overnight observation. An x-ray was eventually performed. The Second Amended Complaint alleges that the x-ray revealed that two discs on Plaintiff's lower back had shifted. No evidence in the record substantiates this allegation. Plaintiff took pain medication and was treated by a chiropractor and/or other medical professionals approximately two to three times a week while at the WCDOC.
A work order dated November 15, 2012, the day of Plaintiff's fall, identified the shower drain Plaintiff fell into and two other drains as needing repair because "tiles are [b]reaking apart." On November 17, 2012, Plaintiff filed a grievance requesting that the shower drain be fixed. The resulting investigation report characterized the shower drain Plaintiff stepped in as "substantially larger" than the adjacent drain due to erosion, "possibly creating a hazardous condition."
Plaintiff's grievance submission after his fall is the first recorded complaint in the record about the disrepair of the shower, and the record contains no evidence of how long the drain had been enlarged.
Finally, WCDOC correction officers and supervisors are required to conduct a security safety inspection, which includes the shower, at the beginning of each tour of duty. If they find any defects, they are required to submit a work order.
II. Sole Defendant
Defendant brings this motion for summary judgment on behalf of the County. Plaintiff purports to respond to the motion on behalf of "defendants." However, there is only one defendant in this case, and the remainder of this opinion considers only claims against that defendant.
Under the Federal Rules, "[t]he title of the complaint must name all the parties." Fed.R.Civ.P. 10(a). "The caption alone, however, is normally not determinative of the identity of the parties or of the pleader's statement of claim.'... Rather, [t]he caption, pleadings, service of process and other indications of the intent of the pleader, are evidence upon which a district court will decide, in cases of doubt, whether an entity has properly been made a party to a lawsuit.'" Cooper v. Trs. of Coll. of Holy Cross, No. 13 Civ. 8064, 2014 WL 2738545, at *6 (S.D.N.Y. June 17, 2014) (quoting E.E.O.C. v. Int'l Ass'n of Bridge, Structural, & Ornamental Ironworkers, Local 580, 139 F.Supp.2d 512, 525 (S.D.N.Y. 2001)).
Plaintiff filed his initial complaint in this action pro se in December 2012, naming the Commissioner of WCDOC, Kevin Cheverko, and WCDOC as defendants. On March 1, 2013, Plaintiff was ordered to file an amended complaint if he wished to pursue the action because the initial complaint failed to allege any constitutional violation, and failed to allege that either Commissioner Cheverko or WCDOC could be held responsible. Plaintiff then filed an amended complaint on March 22, 2013, naming only the County as defendant. Counsel appeared for Plaintiff and in a letter dated June 14, 2013, committed to serve the County, which had not yet been served. With the Court's permission, Plaintiff, now represented, filed a second amended complaint on October 8, 2013. The Second Amended Complaint, which is the operative complaint in this case, named only the County as a defendant in the caption, but under the heading "Parties" also described Commissioner Cheverko and WCDOC as defendants. However, neither Cheverko nor WCDOC has ever been served. They are not parties to this action.
III. Legal Standard
The standard for summary judgment is well established. Summary judgment is appropriate where the record before the Court establishes that there is no "genuine dispute as to any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law." Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(a). A genuine dispute as to a material fact exists "if the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the nonmoving party." Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 248 (1986). The Court must construe the evidence in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party and must draw all reasonable inferences in the nonmoving party's favor. See id. at 255.
IV. Discussion
Plaintiff's only claim in this § 1983 action is that the County failed to maintain constitutionally adequate living conditions because the faulty shower drain that Plaintiff stepped in constituted a hazardous condition. "Establishing the liability of the municipality requires a showing that the plaintiff suffered a tort in violation of federal law committed by the municipal actors and, in addition, that their commission of the tort resulted from a custom or policy of the municipality." Askins v. Doe No. 1, 727 F.3d 248, 253 (2d Cir. 2013). Because no reasonable jury could conclude based on the record before the Court that Plaintiff's injuries resulted from a municipal policy or custom, the County is entitled to summary judgment. This decision, therefore, does not address the antecedent question of whether Plaintiff's injuries were caused in violation of the Constitution or federal law.
A. Monell Standard
Section 1983 provides in relevant part:
Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State... subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law....
42 U.S.C. § 1983. In Monell v. Department of Social Services, the Supreme Court held that a plaintiff could bring suit against a local government or municipality such as Defendant County under Section 1983 if the injury complained of resulted from the "execution of a government's policy or custom, ... [which] may fairly be said to represent official policy." 436 U.S. 658, 694 (1978). "Absent such a custom, policy, or usage, a municipality cannot be held liable on a respondeat superior basis for the tort of its employee." Jones v. Town of East Haven, 691 F.3d 72, 80 (2d Cir. 2012). Thus, "isolated acts... by non-policymaking municipal employees are generally not sufficient" to establish municipal liability. Id. at 81 (citing Villante v. Dep't of Corr., 786 F.2d 516, 519 (2d Cir. 1986)).
For purposes of Monell liability, the municipal policy or custom "may be pronounced or tacit and reflected in either action or inaction." Cash v. County of Erie, 654 F.3d 324, 334 (2d Cir. 2011). "[W]here a policymaking official exhibits deliberate indifference to constitutional deprivations caused by subordinates, such that the official's inaction constitutes a deliberate choice, ' that acquiescence may be properly thought of as a city policy or custom that is actionable under § 1983.'" Amnesty Am. v. Town of West Hartford, 361 F.3d 113, 126 (2d Cir. 2004) (Sotomayor, J.) (quoting City of Canton v. Harris, 489 U.S. 378, 389 (1989)) (internal quotation marks omitted).
Deliberate indifference, however, "is a stringent standard of fault, requiring proof that a municipal actor disregarded a known or obvious consequence of his action." Connick v. Thompson, 131 S.Ct. 1350, 1360 (2011) (quoting Bd. of Cnty. Comm'rs of Bryan Cnty. v. Brown, 520 U.S. 397, 410 (1997)). To demonstrate deliberate indifference, a plaintiff must show that a policymaking official "made a conscious choice, and was not merely negligent." Jones, 691 F.3d at 81. Further, "a single incident alleged in a complaint, especially if it involved only actors below the policy-making level, does not suffice to show a municipal policy." DeCarlo v. Fry, 141 F.3d 56, 61 (2d Cir. 1998) (quoting Ricciuti v. N.Y.C. Transit Auth., 941 F.2d 119, 123 (2d Cir. 1991)).
B. Plaintiff's Claim
Plaintiff appears to base his claim on two theories of municipal liability, each of which must fail.
First, Plaintiff argues that municipal liability exists because his injuries were caused as a result of correction officers' failure to follow an established protocol of inspection. To support this theory, Plaintiff adduces uncontroverted evidence that WCDOC's correction officers, who are non-policymaking employees, are required to undertake a visual inspection of the facilities that they are assigned to and, if required, put in work orders for the defects that they encounter. The existence of a protocol aimed at ensuring that facilities are well-maintained defeats Plaintiff's claim that his injuries resulted from a municipal policy or custom. In fact, precisely the opposite is true. Plaintiff's injuries could have resulted only if the correction officers failed to follow the protocol and acted contrary to the established policy or custom. This theory of liability fails as a matter of law. See, e.g., Ross v. City of New York, No. 12 Civ. 08545, 2014 WL 3844783, at *9 (S.D.N.Y. Aug. 4, 2014) (finding that a non-policymaking municipal employee's acts in contravention of municipal policy does not establish municipal liability).
Second, Plaintiff argues that municipal liability exists based on deliberate indifference. No evidence in the record suggests that a municipal actor or policymaking official made a conscious choice that resulted in the existence of the faulty drain. Further, while the existence of multiple violations may evince a municipal policy or custom on the theory of deliberate indifference, see, e.g., Ingram v. Steel, No. 04 Civ. 5918, 2006 WL 2349241, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. Aug. 15, 2006) (denying City of New York's motion to dismiss because "the failure to repair multiple dangerous [prison] conditions could constitute a custom or policy' sufficient to establish the City's liability"), a single violation, particularly by a non-policymaking employee, will not suffice. The record does not contain any evidence, direct or circumstantial, of repeated instances of badly maintained facilities that would suggest a County custom or policy amounting to deliberate indifference. Instead, Plaintiff offers one instance of a badly maintained facility, the recessed shower drain he stepped into, which cannot be attributed to any policymaking employee. Even in the case of that shower drain, the evidence shows that WCDOC employees placed a work order to fix the drain on the same day Plaintiff fell and in direct response to his grievance complaint, the first recorded complaint about the drain's condition. In sum, Plaintiff's argument cannot satisfy the "stringent standard" of deliberate indifference for municipal liability.
Finally, Plaintiff appears to suggest that because the existence of a faulty shower drain in the facility where he fell was somehow inconsistent with various building and plumbing codes and the New York City Board of Correction's policies, Plaintiff's injuries can be traced to a County policy or custom. Without evidence of pervasive and widespread violations that could amount to a County policy, Plaintiff's focus on building, plumbing and other such codes is irrelevant.
Based on the record before this Court, and construing all the facts in Plaintiff's favor, a reasonable jury could not conclude that Plaintiff's injuries resulted from a municipal policy or custom. Defendant's Motion is therefore granted.
V. Conclusion
For the reasons discussed above, Defendant's Motion for summary judgment dismissing the entirety of Plaintiff's Complaint against the County of Westchester is hereby GRANTED.
The Clerk of Court is directed to close the motion at docket number 39 and to close this case.

This system has led inevitably to striking differences between money market arrangements in the United States and those of other countries. At times, some smaller banks almost inevitably find that the wholesale facilities of the money market cannot provide promptly the funds needed to meet unexpected reserve drains, as deposits move about the country from one bank to another.

Sweden's embattled players were forced to defend themselves against accusations of bullying yesterday after being publicly rebuked for using a team-mate's bare backside as target practice.
Johan Wiland, the Sweden reserve goalkeeper, was forced to stand against a wall and lower his shorts while team-mates fired balls at his exposed behind from 20 yards away as punishment for losing a game of "pig", where players have to try to keep a ball in the air for as long as possible.
The incident, which happened at the end of a training session on Tuesday, was caught on film by a crew

Six Hacks to Improve Diversity in Book Publishing
By Diane Patrick and Calvin Reid —
This article was originally posted on Publishers Weekly.
"The lack of diversity in the book publishing industry is not new or surprising to veterans of the business. PW first addressed the vexing issue of minority employment in a feature in the mid-1990s, and has since covered a variety of industry initiatives and business trends—including corporate internships, educational programs, and new ventures—that attract minorities and spotlight nonwhite entrepreneurs. But the problem persists: many years after that initial report, the book industry continues to lack a meaningful number of minorities.
In many ways, this year's annual survey of African-American publishing is a response to a series of events in 2014 that directly focused on diversity. This year's BookExpo America/BookCon was met with an outcry over its initial lack of diversity in programming for YA publishing. This spurred the We Need Diverse Books campaign, which grew from a passionate protest movement inside and outside the industry into a formal nonprofit with a mission to build diversity.
In addition, PW's annual Salary Survey, which is generally focused specifically on industry pay scales, included survey questions on diversity in book publishing for the first time. The survey responses provided still more evidence—if any more was needed—of an industry that is overwhelmingly white. 90% of the survey's respondents identified themselves as white; 3% identified themselves as Asian; another 3% identified as Latino; and 1% of the respondents identified as African-American. These percentages are so damning (though to many the survey confirmed the obvious) that even the report's overwhelmingly white respondents identified the lack of diversity as a troubling issue likely to negatively affect the kind of books that are published."…

Newspaper circulation continues to decline in the US
Andrew Moran
Oct 26, 2009 in
As alternative media continues to gain respectability and readers go to the Internet for their news, newspaper circulation is declining at a rapid rate with daily papers falling 10 per cent.
With the economy in shambles across the globe, the newspaper industry is suffering in dramatic fashion. Reports released on Monday show that average daily newspaper circulation dropped 10 per cent between April and September, according to the
Associated Press
The averages for Sunday newspapers, which measured 562 U.S. publications, were down just under 7.5 per cent. Furthermore, none of the top-25 newspapers made any gains for their Sunday editions, reports
Due to the growing weakness among the newspaper industry, many bankruptcies, closures and increases in debt are embodying companies such as the New York Times who face an astronomical debt.
The report conducted by the Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC) suggests that the only paper to actually show a small Monday to Friday gain was News Corp.'s The Wall Street Journal with 0.61 per cent, which takes over from USA Today. USA Today declined 17.5 per cent.
The third-largest newspaper in the United States is The New York Times, however the paper's circulation, once again, fell to under 7.3 per cent.
On average, daily circulation for 379 daily newspapers collectively waned 10.6 per cent by the end of September to 30.39 million, which is down from September 2008 when 34 million newspapers circulated across the country.
Rick Edmonds, a media business analyst at the Poynter Institute, told
that he had been expecting the large declines and that this will continue to happen as media companies transfer from print to online.
"We're also looking at a period that reflects the economy itself being down. A lot of people are out of work, cutting back here and there, and at least some of these are going to be cutting newspaper purchases."
Some companies are thriving as major competitors go out of business such as The Denver Post and The Seattle Times, which all made considerable circulation gains, according to
The New York Times
On Monday morning, when the report was published, media analysts and pundits blamed the Internet, the recession, reader's interest, budget cuts and a variety of other reasons. Yet, no one questioned the content.

Every year ExecuNet (a private membership network for senior-level executives and executive recruiters) publishes an Executive Job Market Intelligence Report that contains valuable information for executives. You don't have to be in the midst of career transition to get benefit from this report.
Over 3,000 executives, search firm consultants and corporate human resource professionals were surveyed on a variety of topics. Some of the findings shared in this report include:
- The industries that executive search consultants expect will generate the most executive job growth in 2011
- The top growth regions for executive hiring in 2011
- The percentage of management executives who expect "high levels of turnover" on their current employer's senior management team
- The most critical factor, after base salary and annual performance bonus, in top executives' compensation deliberations related to a career move
- Employed executives' compensation expectations in the event of their potential career transition
- The primary indicators that will move employed executives to begin a job search
The report is replete with information and statics that are helpful in evaluating the job market for 2012. Since the 2012 Job Market Intelligence Report is due out soon, I thought it would be helpful to share this report for a comparison resource. The marketing overview states that companies have come out of the recession wanting a strong global focus and having better processes in place to maximize productivity, mitigate risk and stretch management capability and creativity.
Proactive executives should notice more promising opportunities coming their way. Of course these opportunities are influenced by industry. Predictions for top five high-growth industries are:
- Healthcare
- High Technology
- Clean/Green Technology
- Life Sciences (Pharma/Medical/Biotech)
- Manufacturing
Matching key business goals with executive talent is one of the challenges this report addresses. This information could be eye-opening for an executive in their own company culture and in the job search role. The age-old question, "Where do recruiters find executive candidates?" is answered, as well as revealing the top methods search firms use to evaluate candidates. That in itself is worth a peruse. The market data contained in this report is a must read as it focuses and impacts executives. Read entire report. Look for the 20th Annual Executive Job Market Intelligence Report which will be published soon.

as we celebrate the 4th of July, millions of Americans will have cookouts, go swimming, play cornhole, and watch fireworks. A few of us will actually pause for a moment to reflect upon what the day is all about.
I was maybe 10 or 12 when I first met Lloyd Redman. On warm, sunny afternoons in the spring and summer, he sometimes would show up at our farm near Simpsonville with my Uncle Pat, and they would, with my Granddaddy's advice, traipse among our four large lakes and couple of small ponds until they found a fish or two who were interested in their bait.
During the course of my ministry, I've experienced a lot of church interviews. Some of those interviews have taken place with search committees looking to fill a church staff position, but most of them were instigated by people who wanted to see if I held the "correct" theological opinions.
They say that the most difficult task in sports is to hit a baseball, to strike a round ball, heaved as fast as 100 mph, with a round bat squarely, which by description seems impossible. The very best who try fail a majority of the time.
Sometime ago, my wife and I determined that we needed a new mattress. We determined this based on the fact that we had begun to experience aches and pains that we hadn't noticed before, and rather than admit the obvious (that we were getting older), we found a scapegoat. Obviously, it was the bed's fault.
I'm not sure how long a mattress is supposed to last, but apparently the lifespan for the best mattress $200 could buy at Value City is about 12½years.
As I sat down to work on my first Sentinel-News column, I began by making a list of possible topics. It didn't take long to compile a rather lengthy list. As I pared the list to a few ideas that seemed most timely, it occurred to me that I should first present the perspective from which I write.
I am a minister, so I will naturally take an interest in the way that faith intersects with the various elements of life, such as politics, social issues, economics and, of course, religion and/or the lack thereof.
Little boys and girls grow up imagining the big moment in their dream lives. For some that means hitting the game-winning home run, making the half-court shot as the buzzer sounds, playing solo in Carnegie Hall, recording a hit single or even delivering a moving speech in the halls of government.
They stand in back yards, on playgrounds, on a balcony above a hallway, in front of the mirrors in their bedrooms. Some may hold hair brushes for microphones, hit rocks with a chipped bat or bank in a shot on a wooden backboard attached to a barn.
If you are, like I, a parent of school-aged children, then you know that school is officially out for summer. At our house, that means our kids want to stay up late at night and then sleep in even later the next morning. And because my wife and I remember being teenagers, we generally allow both, within reason. However, there was one end-of-the-school-year "event"' to which I did not agree.
Mine was a Memorial weekend to remember, but not for the altruistic and patriotic reasons – although any father of a Marine, which I am, holds service and sacrifice with immeasurable respect – but because we made a lot of memories around our place.
During my youth, Memorial Day was the holiday when we would visit the gravesite of my maternal grandfather, whom I can't remember from my infancy but whose medals from World War I have been for decades part of the decor in my mother's bedroom.
Tell the truth: If you are a parent, you thought twice about sending your child to school on Tuesday morning.
You looked at the satellite images of the approaching weather system that had laid waste to miles and miles of homes in Oklahoma. You looked at the darkening skies in the west. You thought about families whose children were huddled in a school not built to withstand the right cross from nature's most fearsome force.

Sign the Petition
Save Our Schools. Tell the Harford County Board of Education to pass a sustainable budget which honors teachers' contracts.
Save Our Schools
We the undersigned, feel that it is the duty, responsibility, and obligation of the Harford County Board of Education to create and pass a sustainable budget, which maintains quality education in Harford County through promoting the retention and recruitment of the best possible teachers by honoring teachers' salary scale, providing quality teacher driven, needs based professional development and creating a healthy workplace by honoring our teachers' negotiated agreement.
We believe that it is irresponsible for the Harford County Board of Education to continuously fail to honor it financial commitments to its staff. Furthermore, we believe that this failure to provide financial stability and failure to honor teachers' salary scales has led to a mass departure of high quality teachers which is causing deterioration of our schools and community. Similarly, we believe that it is in the best interests of both the community and our schools for the Harford County Board of Education to honor both the salary scales and negotiated agreement of our teachers.

"I saw this pattern and thought it would be great to go in my gift tins for my homemade spa sets for Christmas. I started the pattern but kept having trouble with the puff stitch. When I try to pull through the loop the hook gets stuck and pull a strand or two out making it look un-neat. Is there a way to prevent this? Could it be the yarn I am using?"
"I love this pattern for making dishcloths! It is so simple and it's so easy to remember. It makes a great,durable dishcloth. Does anyone tried this pattern with that new yarn that is made for making dishcloths? I think it might be a rayon blend. I'm going to try it next time I need dishcloths."
"This is a great beginner project, it was easy to follow and gave great instruction. I was able to work up several of these for co-workers who thought it was so cute. I am going to make several more for my home for company to use when they come over and have coffee."
"These spiral beaded trees are so pretty! For extra sparkle, I am going to place a battery tea light candle in the center of the spiral. Several of these trees would look great placed within a strand of twinkle or small rice lights on a mantle or table center piece!"
"That's a great idea!"

Decoupage started in the early 17th century with the layering of papers. The flowers on this frame from Amy Anderson pay homage to the foundations of decoupage while offering a modern approach.
- Wood frame – 12" x 12" with a 5" x 7" opening
- Mod Podge Gloss
- FolkArt Acrylic Paint – Turner's Yellow
- Scrapbook paper – 8 sheets of 2 coordinating patterns for the large flower, 6 for the medium and 4 for the small. I used papers from the K & Company Lofty Nest Collection
- Buttons, 3 coordinating
- Remove the hardware and glass from your frame. Paint with Turner's Yellow. Give several coats and allow to dry.
- Loosely draw circles (they don't have to be perfect) with a pencil on the frame – draw one small, one medium and one large. These are going to be the placement guides for the flowers.
- Using your scissors, cut out petals freeform from your papers. For the big flower, I used eight sheets of paper in two coordinating patterns. I alternated paper patterns between layers of flowers.
- Use Mod Podge to layer your flower petals as shown in the photo. You will adhere the petals with Mod Podge around your hand drawn circle, smooth them and then allow to dry for 15 – 20 minutes. Repeat with the second layer, making a smaller ring of petals than you did for the first layer. Repeat until you have layered the entire flower. Allow to dry.
- Repeat step 4 with the medium flower and then the small flower.
- Coat the entire frame with Mod Podge to seal, including the flowers. Repeat and allow to dry.
- Glue the buttons to the centers of the flowers with the craft glue. Allow the project to dry for 24 hours before replacing the hardware and hanging.

Book: The Catch by Richard L. Becker
|4.3 stars based on the 3 most helpful Amazon reviews
Richard L. Beckerabout this book: A REALITY DATING SHOW ...
Amber Johnson led a normal middle-class life with all of its trappings; a job, a husband, a young child, a house in the suburbs. In a moment, all was lost. She finds herself accused of murdering her family and her hope for survival lay not in a search for their true killers but in a search for herself.
Michael Anderson does not want to find a mate. He wants to find a possession. A plaything. He is the star of this season's show and can display his hidden talents to the thirteen female contestants and the entire world. And the toys he will use on his own search for 'love' include vibrators and whips and chains.
On a secluded island, surrounded by other women as desperate as her for a chance at a new life, Amber must confront her own wants and desires. Does she want to win this game? Can she accept what Michael wants to do to her? And, is it possible, can it be, is she beginning to like those things, and fall in love with him?
The Catch considers a woman facing physical and emotional annihilation, with no one to turn to for help. She is alone, playing a game, and to win she must be willing to surrender her heart. But will she surrender it to Michael, or if she loses, let the show's creators literally cut it from her chest?

After a catastrophic earthquake that led to the Fukishima incident in Japan, which crimped supply levels for Japanese automakers Honda (NYSE:HMC) and Toyota (NYSE:TM), they have rebounded to lead the way in the auto industry. To offset the Japanese success were Ford (NYSE:F) and competitor General Motors (NYSE:GM), which saw decreases in sales the previous quarter.
The industry as a whole reported sales of 1.15 million vehicles in July, which was an 8.9 percent increase for the industry, meaning as a whole things improved not just for Ford. However, this is not the rate the industry grew in the first six months of the year, which accounted for 14 million vehicles, and a 14.8 percent increase which means that the industry may be slowing.
Ford reported abysmal sales of only 173,000 vehicles a 3.8 percent drop, while pickup trucks also fell 9 percent. "Fuel economy continues to be a top consumer purchase driver across our lineup," said Ken Czubay, head of Ford's United States sales and marketing.
As a result of the poor sales reported, profits fell 39 percent for the American automaker, representing a 6 percent drop in revenues to $33.3 billion, caused by lower North American demand. The company is now expecting market share in both the US and Europe to be less than 16.5 percent and 8.3 percent, respectively, compared with 2011. The company has also shown high structural costs, and the inability to compete economically.
Thankfully Ford did not post as poorly as rival GM who had the worst performance among automakers, selling 201,000 vehicles in July, down 6.4 percent from last year.
GM outlined that sales to rental fleets declined 40 percent, and retail sales rose slightly. "This was a one-month issue," said Alan Batey, who took over this week as GM's interim head of global marketing.
Thankfully for GM investors, the company will not be rolling back a program that allows buyers to return any car if they are not satisfied.
Japanese automakers took the show, however, as Toyota jumped 26.1 percent, with 164,000 vehicles, while Honda registered at 45.3 percent, with 116,000 vehicles.
German automaker Volkswagen (VW) also climbed with a 27.5 percent increase in car sales combining both the Volkswagen and Audi (NYSEMKT:NSU) brands.
The Electric Battle
While much remains to be said about the margins and marketability of electric vehicles, Ford has developed an all-electric car called the Focus EV.
Unfortunately, the Focus EV has only been sold 38 times in the month of July, with 89 sold in June, and zero in February, March, and April.
To put things into context, I want to stress that the vehicle is only on sale in New Jersey, New York, and California, portions of the US that may be a little less squeamish to drive a fuel economy-based car. But these are still large states with large populations, of which Ford has manufactured 884 vehicles for.
It's not like this car hasn't been promoted either, with the car maintaining a large focus from the automaker, no pun intended!
The company is having trouble keeping pace with the more popular Nissan (OTCPK:NSANY) Leaf, which sold 395 vehicles in July. The sales still have a way to go before closing the gap on Nissan's 20,000 vehicle sales goal, though.
Depending on what you consider electric, the Chevy Volt pulled in 1,849 in July, up 89 over the previous year's 1,760. While GM had a bad quarter, at least its riskiest investment is pulling weight. The company has so far managed to sell 10,666 Volts, a 270 percent increase over 2011.
Not surprisingly, the Volt sold better in California, which currently accounts for 1 in 3 vehicles. This was also helped by the state's incentives to let Volts drive in the carpool lane which is typically faster than the rest of the freeway.
So while many Americans may still prefer a large vehicle or something faster, there's no denying that there is a demand for these fuel efficient vehicles, even if it was a little ambitious at first.
So the question remains, can the automaker that brought us the F-150 bring something as exciting but efficient? Are they even compatible?
There is certainly something the American automaker needs to do in order to maintain competitiveness with foreign automakers.
Fuel efficiency is not the only thing that drives people to the lot, as the Germans at Volkswagen (OTCPK:VLKAF) have managed to make amazingly built cars to perfection, albeit slightly less fuel efficient. Ford should take note.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Bronte D'Acquisto – Big Brother 18 Eviction Interview| July 15, 2016 at 1:00 PM EST
Bronte D'Acquisto was voted off Big Brother 18 last night after a surprise house flip sent her out instead of the expected target, Tiffany. Now she's on the outside but still has a chance to get back in the game next week.
Bronte became an outspoken Houseguest but unfortunately she was most often speaking out on the wrong side of the house when it came to who was in control. We asked her an apparent lack of campaigning, her tearful "secret nerd" reveal, who she'd target, and more in our Big Brother eviction interview below.
Big Brother Network: You asked your allies if you should be campaigning. Why did you decide not to campaign even without someone telling you to do that?
Bronte D'Acquisto: I decided not to campaign because at the time, Tiffany really was the true target. Too much campaigning in the house can work against you at times because people will feel you don't trust them.
BBN: Why were you concerned and emotional about revealing your "secret nerd" status inside the house?
Bronte D'Acquisto: Since I was the last female on the rocket I became known as a physical threat. If the houseguest saw me as a mental threat it would have put a big target on my back. The reason I was emotional was because you don't get no dang sleep in the Big Brother house. I think I've been getting three hours of sleep for the last 30 days.
BBN: You mentioned wishing you had seen more of Big Brother. What did you not feel prepared for once inside the house?
Bronte D'Acquisto: The amount of lying people are willing to do. I did not expect so much aggressive gameplay right out of the gate. I consider myself a feisty person, but I learned there's a difference between being feisty and being cutthroat.
BBN: If you win your way back in, who do you target & who can you still trust?
Bronte D'Acquisto:I know I can trust Natalie. She's my ride or die girl. My full attention would be on getting Paulie out of the house because I know he's the puppet master.
BBN: Thank you, Bronte.
Pretty solid answers for these. That strange and awkward "I'm the secret nerd" moment didn't make a lot of sense, but a lack of sleep can explain a lot away. I'd also be interested in seeing her go after Paulie considering she had previously planned to inform him post-season of her romantic interest in him. I'd guess that desire has been extinguished.
Get ready for more Big Brother with Sunday's episode at 8/7c on CBS when the nominations ceremony is revealed and Roadkill takes another victim to the Block.

Well there's a thin line between love and hate. She can hate him and love him at the same time, especially when he's all over Z.
I'm glad I don't have to endure her annoying voice anymore. Please BB gods, don't let her get back into the house. I can't take it.
Her voice is cute.
You're the only one that thinks so… Bronte's sister. STFU pathetic loser.
And with that, you are blocked.
LOL. Hilarious.
I miss bronte so much. And if she doesn't come back, I won't renew my feeds. Cbs can't technically bill me, since my old card expired.
Just humor me and tell me why you would want to listen to that voice. I'm so glad she is gone, now I can watch the feeds AND listen. LOL
I think she's cute. I think her voice is cute too.
You're literally the ONLY one who thinks so. She's got, bulging wall eyes, dumbo ears A HUGE HONKING HOOK NOSE, an ugly shaped mouth, tic tac teeth and a really weird shaped head.
Not only that, fake boobs on a toothpick body.
No kidding, she looks like a child of incest.
She is lucky her questionable Hong Kong comments, and other mean girl moments didn't make the edit to tv. The amount of Twitter followers she gained during her stay in the BB house shows just how much she is liked by bb watchers. Good riddance.
I can't believe Julie didn't even mention it. Just shows certain kinds of racism is okay.
I'm going to assume that was Bronte's younger sisters dress, who is about 3, I'm guessing…..
LMAO. No her siste ris not 3 but DEFINITELY ugly too. There's a photo of her ugly family on the inter webs. Bronte looks EXACTLY like her hideous looking father.

Camden is a very small city located in the state of Alabama. With a population of 1,933 people and just one neighborhood, Camden is the 209th largest community in Alabama.
Occupations and Workforce
Camden is neither predominantly blue-collar nor white-collar, instead having a mixed workforce of both blue-collar and white-collar jobs. Overall, Camden is a city of sales and office workers, service providers and professionals. There are especially a lot of people living in Camden who work in office and administrative support (20.31%), maintenance occupations (9.44%) and management occupations (8.12%).
There are many members of the armed forces living in Camden. You will notice when you visit or live here that some of the people you meet or see around town are employed by the armed services - even if they are not always in uniform.
Setting & Lifestyle
Residents will find that the city is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Camden is worth considering.
One of the benefits of Camden is that there is very little traffic. The average commute to work is 18.43 minutes, which is substantially less than the national average. Not only does this mean that the drive to work is less aggravating, but noise and pollution levels are lower as a result.
Camden is a small city, and as such doesn't have a public transit system that people use to get to and from their jobs every day.

High Quality, Secure, Fully Managed Opencart Host Needed.
As the title says, I am looking for a high quality, secure, and fully managed Opencart Host.
I have a merchant account and Authorize.net account.
I have several ecommcerce sites I'd like to transfer to Opencart.
I am looking for a host that can make sure Opencart is installed and configured securely. Obviously the Target data breech has made everyone stand up and take notice so I need to ensure every reasonable measure is taken to make sure the server and Opencart is locked down and secure.
Thanks for any recommendations you can offer.
Make sure your future host makes frequent backups and will help you protect your stores and fix them for you in case the worst happens.
I suggest you shortlist a few web hosts from the offers section, where the price and location fits you.
Then hop on to their live chat and ask about opencart specifics (there isn't anything specific in hosting OpenCart, it is pretty much standard and with most hosts even you can have it installed for you with 1 click) and your specific concerns.
Then pick the one whose response you loved the most.

filed: June 12, 1981.
COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA,v.JAMES WELDON, APPELLANT
No. 1122 Philadelphia, 1980, Appeal from Judgment of Sentence of the Court of Common Pleas, Criminal Division, of Bucks County at No. 1076 of 1978.
Michael A. Klimpl, Doylestown, for appellant.
Michael Kane, District Attorney, Doylestown, for Commonwealth, appellee.
Cavanaugh, DiSalle and Montemuro, JJ.
[ 287 Pa. Super. Page 535]
This case involves the appeal by one of three co-defendants charged with a burglary of a residence in Quakertown, Bucks County, on March 30, 1978. Appellant, James Weldon, was convicted of burglary and related offenses and was given concurrent sentences of two to five years.
The appellant first argues that the Commonwealth's evidence was not sufficient to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt. We have thus examined the evidence under the familiar standard of sufficiency of the evidence. Commonwealth v. Madison, 263 Pa. Super. 206, 397 A.2d 818 (1979). So considered, the evidence discloses that a Commonwealth witness Raymond Hubbard, Special Agent of the United States Treasury Department, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, testified concerning his meetings with appellant while acting as an undercover agent in the Kensington area of Philadelphia. On March 30, 1978, the witness went to the Summer Place Bar and there met the manager, John Lorenzo, who called appellant over to talk with him. They discussed the sale by appellant to Hubbard of a Ruger Black Hawk 357 pistol and on March 31 appellant consummated the sale to Hubbard, including a holster and cartridges. The victim of the burglary Dr. Obenrader had testified that objects fitting this description had been taken from his residence. In a conversation of July 25, 1978 appellant mentioned a burglary of a doctor's house; that he could beat the charges for the "Quakertown job"; and that he was picked up in Quakertown by Lorenzo and a girl named Terry. In regard to his activities in Quakertown he described how he went out the back door of the premises and how
[ 287 Pa. Super. Page 536]
the identification of him was not positive. On September 6, 1978, appellant stated that when he was at Quakertown he was upstairs and found an office and was going through the drawers; that he ran out the back door and over a fence; and that he cut his hand going over the fence.
In addition, a review of the evidence supports the conclusion that various eyewitnesses to events following the burglary saw three different men come from the scene of the burglary: two who came out the front door and got into a car and a third who was seen fleeing from the back of the premises. While the appellant was never facially identified in court as the third member, his co-defendants were identified and there was testimony that the clothing worn by the person fleeing over the fence was the same as that seen to be worn by the appellant on the morning of the burglary while in the company of his two co-defendants. We conclude that the evidence was fully sufficient to support the verdict of guilty of burglary.
Appellant argues that the sentence of two to five years is excessive and was not given within "the procedural limits of the law". Our examination of the record discloses that the only statement given by the court at the time of sentencing Mr. Weldon was given in conjunction with a sentence of a co-defendant as follows:
As to Mr. Weldon, in your case, and Mr. Hilton's case, it was imposed because of the seriousness of the offense, the fact that you entered a private dwelling home in the daytime in the Bucks County area in a residential community, and we believe that any lesser sentence would not be in keeping with the type of crime that all of you have committed.
Our cases provide that the sentencing judge must state on the record the reasons for the sentences imposed, including an indication that the judge attached weight to the statutory guidelines for sentencing and considered the circumstances of the offense and the character of the defendant.
[ 287 Pa. Super. Page 537]
While, here, the court stated that the offense involved the burglary of a private dwelling in daytime, and that a lesser sentence would not be in keeping with this type of crime, this statement is insufficient to comply with the statutory or decisional requirements for sentencing. Commonwealth v. Wicks, 265 Pa. Super. 305, 401 A.2d 1223 (1979); Commonwealth v. Doyle, 275 Pa. Super. 373, 418 A.2d 1336 (1979); Commonwealth v. Steward, 276 Pa. Super. 64, 419 A.2d 96 (1980); Commonwealth v. Kostka, 276 Pa. Super. 494, 419 A.2d 566 (1980); Commonwealth v. Smith, 278 Pa. Super. 20, 419 A.2d 1335 (1980); Commonwealth v. Landi, 280 Pa. Super. 134, 421 A.2d 442 (1980); Commonwealth v. Maxwell, 280 Pa. Super. 235, 421 A.2d 699 (1980); Commonwealth v. O'Brien, 282 Pa. Super. 193, 422 A.2d 894 (1980); Commonwealth v. Levenson, 282 Pa. Super. 406, 422 A.2d 1355 (1980).
In sentencing appellant the court did not have the benefit of a presentence investigation report and simply stated that it waived a presentence investigation. In Commonwealth v. Martin, 466 Pa. 118, 133, 351 A.2d 650 at 658 (1976) the Supreme Court held:
The sentence must be imposed for the minimum amount of confinement that is consistent with the protection of the public, the gravity of the offense, and the rehabilitative needs of the defendant. See 18 Pa.C.S. § 1321(b) (Supp.1975). At least two factors are crucial to such determination -- the particular circumstances of the offense and the character of the defendant. Pa.R.Crim.P. 1403(a)(2) provides that all pre-sentence reports shall include such information. We hold that regardless whether a pre-sentence report is ordered, the sentencing court must at least consider these two factors in its sentencing determination. Failure to give such individualized consideration requires that these sentences be vacated. (footnote omitted).
As a result of the mandate contained in the Martin case the Pennsylvania Rules of Criminal Procedure were amended to provide that in certain situations (including when, as
[ 287 Pa. Super. Page 538]
here, a sentence of incarceration of one year or more is possible disposition) if the sentencing court fails to order a pre-sentence report it shall place in the record its reasons for dispensing with a report. Pa.R.Crim.Pro. 1403(A)(2). The rule further provides that when a pre-sentence investigation report is prepared it "shall include information regarding the circumstances of the offense and the character of the defendant sufficient to assist the court in determining sentence." Pa.R.Crim.P. 1403(A)(3).
The failure of the court to give reasons for dispensing with a presentence report especially when considered with the failure to adequately state the reasons for sentencing and a consideration of the statutory guidelines for sentencing require that while we affirm the conviction of appellant, we vacate the sentence and remand for resentencing.
