Luca: Anger ManagementMature
Ugh. I managed to get into an argument with Gemme, even though I was the one that said "let's not argue". Nice one, Cancer.
Figuring it's better to let Gemme go to the cemetery with just Ike, rather than having me there to fuck anything else up, I go my own way. I'm pissed at Benny. Did he seriously think he would get away with that?
Actually, if Gemme hadn't said anything, he would have gotten away with it. Bastard.
Without meaning to, I find myself at the apartment. If what Gemme said about him taking over as the local drug dealer was true, then he should be here. I don't knock on the door, I just make the lock open itself and go in. Benny stands up from the sofa in surprise as I slam the door closed.
"Shit," he mutters.
I don't say anything; I close the space between us and slam my fist into his face. He falls back and lands with a thud on the floor, one hand covering his nose. There're patches of blood on his hand when he takes it away and a splodge of blood just above his upper lip. The look on his face when he looks up at me makes me grin.
Genuine terror lines his face as he shuffles away from me. The sofa scoots out of my way as I take a step forward.
"Cancer, I'm sorry!" he yells, trying to push himself up, but he can't - I'm holding him down. I walk over to him slowly, taking my time. I can feel him fighting my hold on him, but he might as well not bother. I pick him up and dangle him in the air with a slight smile.
"You're lucky I didn't bring my knife with me, Benny," I spit at him and he flinches.
"Put me down, Cancer," he says, trying to keep his voice even but, Christ, the look on my face must be pretty scary, 'cause he can't keep it calm. I oblige, dropping him to the floor. Standing close, I push him backwards into the wall.
"Now, now Benny. You've been a bad boy," I hiss in his ear. "Don't you think you need punishing?"
"Dude, we're cool. I was in a bad mood and she forgave me," he protests. I nod.
"Yeah, yeah, she mentioned that, too, but personally, I don't think your excuse could have gotten much weaker." I drive my fist into his stomach and he gasps, choking for air as his windpipe contracts. Oh for fuck's sake. I didn't mean to do that. I step back and make him stop choking. It's bad enough controlling my telekinesis when I'm pissed off but now I have to control my healing thing?
"I'm sorry, okay?" he coughs and rubs his throat with one hand. Spitting blood out onto the floor, he glances up at me. I punch him again; his head cracks back into the wall with the force of my punch and he cries out and finally punches back.
I've missed this.
I laugh and encourage him, grinning as he lashes out to defend himself until we're on the floor, beating the shit out of each other.
After last night, I realised how much pent up anger I needed to get out of me. I was all too happy to get it out of me at the party until Gemme stopped me. I probably wouldn't have bothered with this if I didn't need it.
Eventually, I throw Benny across the room. He skids into the kitchen and picks himself up. I'm sitting on the floor, laughing. I'm not even high.
But I feel better.
Benny staggers back over to me, but we both know the fight is over. He flops onto the sofa and closes his eyes, sighing.
"Apology accepted," I grin. He opens his eyes again and glances at me, shaking his head.
"I should fucking hope so too," he groans, rubbing the back of his neck, wincing.
"Don't be such a baby, I didn't break anything," I laugh and he glares at me.
"No, but that doesn't change the fact that my balls probably won't ever work the same again," he growls and I just grin at him.
"You'll live," I tell him, lighting a cigarette. "You deserved it anyways," I mutter through the smoke. He nods and closes his eyes again. I glance up at the clock. I should probably go back to the train station. "I'm gonna go," I say, picking myself up off the floor. He glances at me again and laughs.
"You have blood on you." He tells me and I look down. Oh yeah. Knew I should have put a black shirt on, not a white one.
"Your blood, Benny boy." I grin and walk out.
I don't really wanna go back to the train station. I like being back home.
I go there anyways, leaning on the fence outside while I wait for Gemme. Dunno how I'm gonna explain away the blood.
She's gonna be pissed at me.

FORMER glamour girl Abi Titmuss has spoken of her shame at her bad-girl past,
describing herself as "third-rate".
And the lads' mag favourite admits she began hitting the bottle to make
herself feel better about her hard-partying lifestyle.
She told the Radio Times: "My self-esteem got so low, because I wasn't
happy with what I was doing, that the only thing that would make me feel
better was going out and partying and getting my picture taken.
"I knew how third-rate I was."
Abi, who is now pursuing a career as an actress, first found fame after a
romance with TV host John Leslie.
While she was working as a nurse at the time, she soon hit the headlines for
her wild ways, eventually working as a presenter on a TV porn channel.
Titmuss is set to star alongside Essex boy Danny Dyer in an episode of
Casualty later this month.
But she admits getting away from her outrageous past wasn't easy.
She revealed: "I don't expect my name to open doors in fact in
TV it absolutely closes them but I got this part on merit, despite the fact
it was me."

Q: What are your feelings on the QBs WVU is bringing in? -EERforce1
A: The early thought from me was if WVU decided to include two quarterbacks in the class they would be of different skill sets. However, that turned out to not be the case.
Both Chris Chugunov and David Sills offer strong arms and are pure pocket passers. They both have excellent vision and have the "zip" needed on their passes to play at the next level.
Q: Do you think Sills stays committed if Crest plays this year? -TuckerMountaineer
A: Yes. When Sills committed in July he did so knowing the roster currently in place and the fact the Mountaineers already had another quarterback committed. He's made it known he's eager to compete and earn a spot.
Q: Is WVU still actively pursuing Miami (FL) quarterback Lamar Jackson? -wolfpackeer
A: With two quarterbacks currently in the fold it's difficult to imagine a scenario where three wouldn't be a crowd. However, Jackson is an extreme talent so it would be tough to turn him away. At the present moment the viewpoint from here suggests the Mountaineers are finished at the position.
Q: What percentage chance WVU gets a LOI on signing day from Jovon Durante? -AliceBaker12
A: These are always tough to predict — especially with percentages. However, I think WVU's positioning with Durante is stronger now than ever. His visit a few weeks back was beneficial. It allowed him to be on campus with the staff and alongside other commits. His transfer to Miramar High is also interesting. That keeps him around three other West Virginia commits on a daily basis.
There's still a strong chance he takes his official visits elsewhere, so that's a concern. But I'd give the Mountaineers a strong 85% chance of winning out with his signature.
Q: Who are we more likely to take between defensive ends Reuben Jones and Larry Jefferson? -yahoomountaindo
A: I'm not sure it'll come down to which player the WVU staff "takes" over the other, but which is more ready to make a commitment. I wouldn't rule out the option both could find their way into the class.
Q: What are the chances we see offensive lineman Jamie Herr commit to WVU again? -yahoomountaindo
A: Herr is definitely someone to watch because the staff appears to still hold him in high regard. At last check Herr planned to visit again this fall.
Q: Who would you say WVU's top targets are? -MountaineerMastermind
A: This would be an excellent positional breakdown piece and likely give a better understanding into different prospects. However, there are a handful of names still high on the Mountaineers board.
Defensively, Monaca (Pa.) cornerback Jordan Whitehead, Philadelphia (Pa.) defensive end Shareef Miller, Cincinnati (Ohio) linebacker David Long and Miami (FL) cornerback Sheldrick Redwine rate highly.
On offense, Largo (FL) wide receiver Damian King, Garner (N.C.) running back Nyheim Hines, Aliquippa (Pa.) wide receiver Patrick Anderson and Elkton (Md.) offensive lineman Jamie Herr are notable prospects to watch.
Q: Where do you think Jordan Whitehead will land? -MountaineerMastermind
A: For the longest time Whitehead's recruitment has been a three-way battle between West Virginia. Penn State and Ohio State. As time has passed the Nittany Lions' class appears to have moved past Whitehead to focus in other areas. It could be a battle between the Mountaineers and Buckeyes with both programs having strong foundations in his recruitment.
Q: Anything new on Miramar (FL) cornerback Tyrek Cole? Are we still in it for Tim Settle?-shane7
A: Cole remains committed to Florida State. As of now there's nothing to suggest he won't wind up a Seminole. However, like the majority of recruits, he stills plans to take official visits. Whenever that happens anything it possible. It does appear that the Mountaineers are in line for one of those visits.
Since releasing a top 15 in late June, where he included WVU, Settle has slowed his recruitment down. At this point I wouldn't rate the chances high of him becoming a Mountaineer, though having him possibly visit during the season would prove beneficial.
Q: Which schools are WVU's biggest competition for linebacker David Long — and what percentage chance to you give WVU? -yahoomountaindo
A: Long's recruitment is arguably one of the toughest to figure out because he keeps things close to the vest. However, he recently listed a top seven to Scout.com that included Missouri, Illinois, Louisville, Kentucky, West Virginia and Oklahoma. All of the schools have offered expect the Sooners.
With that list in mind he plans to narrow down to three schools in September — so giving a percentage chance at this time is difficult.
Q: Do you predict the 2016 class to be as good or better than 2015 class? -Motown2014
A: I've always been of the belief you can never truly judge a class until a few years down the road. But, we live in a world of star rating players, so this is a question often asked. I've predicted the class of 2015 to be a top 20 class. There's a ton of rising-juniors in the class of 2016 with significant interest in the Mountaineers — and it's started with the commitment of linebacker Logan Thimons.
Q: Is Travares Martin the top remaining wide receiver target? How many more wideouts will WVU take? What are chances with Amir Ealey? -yahoomountaindo
A: Martin is indeed a wanted man by the WVU staff, but he's not alone at the top. Damian King, Patrick Anderson, Therrell Gosier and Gary Jennings all find themselves on the radar. With only two wide receivers currently in the fold, it wouldn't be surprising to see another two or three make their way onto the committed list.
Amir Ealey is an intriguing prospect. While most schools like him on the offensive side of the ball, the Mountaineer staff prefers him on defensive. The Coatesville (Pa.) standout hasn't tipped his hand as to where he wants to play — so the position will likely be the outlining factor in his decision.
Q: Who is our best defensive line target? Do we target bodies we can mold or go after a finished product? -mountiefan74
A: West Virginia has a rich history in taking prospects on both sides of the line and molding them into solid contributors. Early names on the radar are Shareef Miller, Channing Hames and Reuben Jones. Couple those prospects with a handful of junior college players who seemingly always pop up late, and WVU will add another couple defensive lineman to the class.
Q: Does getting Antonio Howard on board help cement the verbal of Jovon Durante because of their friendship? -BlindDuck
A: As I mentioned earlier, Durante's commitment is believed to be stronger than ever. His recent visit to WVU appears to have solidified his pledge. His relationship with Howard is a plus, much like his recent transfer to Miramar to play alongside other Mountaineer commits.
Q: How many scholarships to we have available for this season in total? -bitcruncher
A: When sizing up a recruiting class I don't typically examine overall scholarship numbers, but rather how many prospects are a "take" in the class. The class of 2015 looks to have around 22-25 total.
Q: With the limited size of the senior class how many commits do we take in the near future? Do we hold spots for bigger targets closer to signing day? -MTNenginEER
A: This is a scenario every school runs into almost every year and it almost always works itself out in the end. The West Virginia staff has a history of doing both — taking who's ready to commit and being patient with those who want to wait. There is always room for a signing day surprise.

Man arrested over mugging on campus last summer
URBANA — A Champaign man wanted in connection with a mugging on campus last summer was arrested Tuesday.
Arsenio P. Carter, 26, who listed an address in the 1500 block of Thornton Drive, was charged in August with attempted robbery and aggravated battery in connection with an Aug. 17 attack on a Champaign man.
A University of Illinois police report said about 2:45 a.m. that day, the 28-year-old was walking south on Wright Street south of Springfield Avenue near Talbot Lab, when he was approached by four men walking north.
After the group passed, the victim was hit from behind, knocked to the ground, then kicked and punched several times.
One man tried to steal personal property from the victim's pockets. When he resisted and began to shout for the police, all four men ran away north on Wright Street.
The group was captured on surveillance video and Kenichi Townsend and Carter were identified through a tip to Crimestoppers of Champaign County, according to UI police Sgt. Tom Geis.
The mugging was one of about six robberies that happened in late August on the Champaign side of campus.
Late Tuesday afternoon, Carter was stopped at the corner of Bradley Avenue and Randolph Street by a Champaign police officer for an alleged traffic violation. That's when the officer located the outstanding warrant.
Charges had also been filed for the same mugging against Townsend, 18, of Urbana, but Assistant State's Attorney Lindsey Clark dismissed them in January, declaring there was not enough evidence to prove his involvement beyond a reasonable doubt.

There are as many variations of empanadas as there are cooks in Argentina. This version was developed by BA contributor Gaby Melian, who is from Buenos Aires and was taught as a little girl by family members how to make them.
The nostalgic ground meat filling has obvious upgrades; the charred tomato salsa should be in heavy rotation.
We would eat pretty much anything topped with mashed potatoes.
Look for basmati rice with a slightly golden hue—that indicates that the rice has been properly aged.
Making cheesesteaks at home doesn't require any fancy moves—only the willingness to turn your kitchen into a South Philly hoagie shop.
Beef or chicken? Pork or lamb? We let you know what to buy to help our old friend planet Earth.
Tips for buying and cooking meat like the responsible and healthy human you are.
Gray taco meat does not count as browned.
A legendary layered dip from Matt's El Rancho in Austin, Texas, of taco meat, queso, guacamole, sour cream, and pico de gallo.
Magical mini versions of Juicy Lucys, cheese-filled burgers that hail from Minnesota.
Look for short ribs with the most marbling possible for these cheesesteaks; if you really want to splash out, use boneless rib eye.
It doesn't matter if your team wins or loses—you have these bowls of chili for comfort.
Can you even make braised short ribs better? Yes—if you serve them over pasta.
You spent some cash on a roast. Better make it perfectly crispy, pink, and pristine.

No. 3 iPhone OS 3.0 introduces cut, copy, and paste and slew of new features
In mid-March, Apple held a special media event where it previewed iPhone OS 3.0, a monster update released in June. The new OS finally included cut, copy and paste - a feature users had been clamoring for since the iPhone debuted. It also included support for MMS, though AT&T frustratingly took months until its network supported it. Users were delighted by iPhone OS 3.0's Spotlight search, universal landscape keyboard, Push Notification and the nifty "find my iPhone" feature. All told, 3.0 included more than 100 new features plus some great API improvements for developers. What new feature helped users deal with a phone call when using an app?

Selene: You!
I was not meant to be here, stuck on the ground. As the moon started to rise, I looked at her. My mother was there, riding her chariot across the sky. I wispered to her, "Mother, please, don't leave me here. Take me to where I belong. Take me to Olympus, take me to where you start your journey in the night sky and bring me with you."
The wind carried her reply, breathing softly into my ear, "No, Daughter. You will be with me soon enough, you must earn your gifts, and then you will be here, driving the chariot and all that look up during the night shall see you climb the arc of the sky. Wait for your chance..."
"I don't want to wait!" I nearly screamed. "I have been stuck here for sixteen years and you leave me to wait here for a chance that may never happen? I will go, now, and you will never see me again!"
She did not reply, so I stalked away from her, looking down at the ground. Having my gaze on the dirt, I nearly smacked into someone else in front of me.
"You!" she cried. I looked up.
"You!" I cried.
It was Crystal, the one I had heard about from my Mother before. A nightwatcher, and a special one. "Trustworthy, and special." she had said. "Destined for greatness, like you."
"Daughter of the goddess Diana!" She stepped back, looking at me.
"Nightwatcher, the special one! My mother told me about you!"
Both of us were shaken, but I managed to stand straight and tall. I motioned a hand towards the moonlight shadow under two twining birches. Looking back, then ahead, we sat beneath them. "Why are you here?" I asked.

6 CEO Productivity Tips to Steal for Yourself
Rich Hua stashed this in Productivity
Stashed in: #lifehacks, Time, Practice, Focus!, CEOs, Productivity, Mashable!, Productivity
First three are the best:
1. Take breaks every 90 minutes
Tony Schwartz, president of the Energy Project, suggests taking breaks every 90 minutes to maximize your productivity. The reason? Human bodies have an energy cycle that operates at 90-minute intervals throughout the day. When we've been working on something for an hour and a half or longer, it's natural that our alertness levels will go down and our attention will wander or we'll feel drowsy (or start checking Twitter or Facebook).
The counterintuitive secret to sustainable great performance is to live like a sprinter. In practice, that means working at your highest intensity in the mornings, for no more than 90 minutes at a time, and then taking a break.
So, the next time your eyes are glazing over, instead of reaching for another cup of coffee, step away from your work for a few minutes instead. You might be surprised how much you'll get done in the long run.
2. Make yourself uninterruptable sometimes
There's nothing more frustrating than finally getting into the zone working on a big project — and then being interrupted by a co-worker or boss who drops by your desk. Worse, research shows it can take up to 25 minutes to get back on track after an interruption.
And that's exactly why Andrew Marsh, CEO of Fifth Column Games, has developed a system to make sure that everyone in his office can work without being interrupted. By placing a "cone of silence" on their desks, employees have a tangible symbol that conveys that they should not be disturbed unless it's an emergency.
I use the cone of silence when I'm working on a complex project that I need to concentrate on. Being able to focus intensely without interruption is a valuable productivity tool for everyone at Fifth Column Games.
Whether you need to stay focused on intense tasks for a couple of hours a day or you're working on a big project, using a system that informs people of this will get them into the habit of sending you an email for non-urgent tasks instead of dropping by your desk.
3. Manage your energy, not just your time
You know it's important to budget your time wisely — but it can actually be more effective to also manage your energy. Our own CEO, The Muse co-founder Kathryn Minshew, is a fan of optimizing her workday by doing her most concentration-intensive tasks during her peak hours, those golden hours when her energy levels are at their highest. Meetings, on the other hand, are something she avoids during these hours and saves for other times in the day.
I find it's been immensely helpful for me to pay attention to when in the day I'm most productive (what hours, under what conditions) and aggressively guard that time for focused work.
If you're a morning person, do your most important tasks first thing and save the tedious, mindless tasks for later in the day when your energy is waning. Not sure what your peak hours are? Try energy mapping to find out and make the most of your workday.

Importance Of Bronies
Ok first things first I am in no way a fan of My Little Pony and I am most definitely not a "Bronie". Recently while browsing through Netflix bored out of my arse after finishing Darksiders and having nothing to do, I stumbled upon a documentary all about Bronies. Now I happen to work with a lad who, how would you say? Is not what you would call the socially normal looking or sounding young man, but being the great man that I am I class him as a friend.
He recently told me that he was a Bronie, I had no idea what this was he explained to me about it being a man who likes My Little Pony. My only knowledge of My Little Pony is that it ended in late 80's early 90's. But now apparently it's back on and it's fantastic... Again I have no interest at all. Now I want to get to my main point in writing this, I am sure a few of you out there know a Bronie or are indeed a Bronie yourself, now this is in no way a dig or piss take, quite the opposite actually.
Now as I mentioned earlier, this lad I know is not you "Social Norm" And watching the documentary I saw that neither were any of the Bronies, with a few exceptions. A lot had emotional issues, bad childhoods or suffering from things like Aspergers and Autism. Now if we are honest we have all at some point called these Bronies horrible names or made assumptions (GAY, FAGS, PUFFS, HORSE FUCKERS) on the documentary one arsehole described them as paedophiles! This is ridiculous, wrong and immature.
I don't want to ramble on for too long so I will try and finish this quick as I can. If My Little Pony can help people with learning difficulties, Aspergers, Autism and people who don't mix well with others then what is wrong with that? If it can inspire a 16 year old boy or 30 year old man to go out and meet new people at conventions, make new friends and thusly improve their lives for better then what is wrong with that? These people seem to be the kind of people who struggle through school are bullied because of their ailments or awkwardness, but if this show can help inspire and help these folks then to me that is a great thing. My Little Pony deserves respect for helping the downtrodden and bullied and forgotten people. In a world that is obsessed with violence and greed My Little Pony is a ray of sunshine in many peoples lives and is 20% cooler than you.

Georgia's conservative Olympic outfit scorned by women's rights activists
By Umberto Bacchi
LONDON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Women's rights activists in Georgia have urged the country's Olympic Committee to pick a more liberal design for its female athletes, criticizing the official outfits for next month's opening ceremony at the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games as archaic.
Inspired by the national costume, the outfit has been a major talking point in the former Soviet republic over the past few days, with many taking to social media to complain it projected the wrong image of the nation abroad.
"It's very archaic and conservative," said Baia Pataraia from the Georgian Women Movement. "This is not how we perceive our society to be".
The uniform, made of an ankle-length gown and a dark red jacket with long sleeves and a high-necked top was unveiled last week ahead of the Olympic team's departure for Brazil.
"The Olympic uniforms depict a stereotypical approach towards women," Nana Pantsulaia, executive director of Women's Fund in Georgia, told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
An online petition asking for it to be swapped for an outfit "suitable for a modern state" was launched shortly afterwards and has since attracted more than 7,000 signatures.
Some critics argued the dress was ill-suited to the festive spirit of the Games and Rio's hot weather.
"To the next Olympics, perhaps, we will go dressed directly as monks," quipped Facebook user David Paichadze. Continued...

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - March 15, 1983, New Braunfels, Texas Dallas, Texas #75?- 1,1 ^rop l ex, mc. Como. -it : flitch womt'le i .J. e>ox W3c frXr»c! 755 Council names 18 streets to head priority By DYANNEFRY Staff writer Priorities set last year by the City Council held good. Members decided Monday to put new asphalt overlay on the seven streets left over from the 1962 priority list, and then start on the list prepared by city staff late last year. There are 18 streets, or sections thereof, on that second list. But by City Manager E.N. Delashmutt's estimates, the city will have just enough money to do four of them. If he's erred on the high side, perhaps as many as eight. Estimated cost to complete all the projects on both lists is $306,495. Available funds will probably come to IIM,715. "And this is just the beginning of the streets," Delashmutt told the council. "We're working on another $800,000 worth in case Sen. (John) Traeger's pothole bill goes through." He's keeping a close watch on that bill, which has a top-priority endorsement by the Texas Municipal League. Officially titled Senate Bill 287, the "pothole bill" would route state funds to cities for repair of existing streets. The money would be given (rn a 30-70 matching basis, with the city itself putting up the smaller share. Over a two-year period (fiscal years 1964 and 1965), each city would get $3,230 for every mile of paved street. This would mean $450,000 for New Braunfels, which would have to put up $184,000 in matching funds. If the state comes through, Delashmutt figures he can find the money somewhere. And he won't have any trouble finding the streets. Those that fell high enough on Monday's priority list will be getting a new coat of asphalt within the year. This sort of work has been contracted to an outside firm in the past. This year, the city manager plans to stretch available funds by using his own employees and Comal County's new paving machine. New Braunfels will exchange fire and ambulance service for use of the machine, on a pro rata basis. Delashmutt also has a list of streets which, he says, are in such bad shape that they wouldn't be helped by asphalt overlay. He has a different plan for those, and it involves the $9,500 chip spreader Council agreed to purchase on Monday night. Cooper Equipment Company of San Antonio quoted that price on a reconditioned machine (a new one would run $35,000 to $40,000, Delashmutt said). The chip spreader allows the street department to "lay its own base," as Mayor O.A. Stratemann Jr. put it. The process, which Delashmutt calls "double-course penetration," involves a layer of primer material, a layer of course rock, a coating of asphalt oil and a top layer of finer rock. In the past few years, city workers, using a borrowed chiplist spreader, have performed this operation on Cedar Elm, Madeline Street and Alves Lane. It takes a little traffic to pack the new pavement down. "Then you've got a street that's in pretty good shape at a much lower cost (than if you'd done it like a new street)," Delashmutt explained. Streets on the priority list for new asphalt overlay this year include: — Zink Street, from Seguin Avenue to the Missouri-Kansas-Texas tracks; — Market Street, from the MKT See STREETS, Page 12 New JesUeU BraunfelsNew Braunfels. TexasHerald-Zeitung Vol. 92 — No. 52 12 Pages TUESDAY March 15,1983 25 cents (USPS 377-880) Parks board backs center By DEBBIE DeLOACH Staff writer City Council members have a recommendation coming their direction from the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board that takes several breaths to say, but says it all. The newest Parks board member, Bob Hamil, did the honors Monday night, putting months of work into the form of a motion. His recommendation provided for the hiring of a recreation supervisor-coordinator and part-time assistants as required, and the use of luanda Recreation Center in the recreational program of the city — if necessary cm a part-time basis, with the remainder of tune available for building rental The board's recommendation also asked that early hiring of part-time recreation aides be considered, to insure the summer recreation program is staffed and can begin on tune The motion was seconded by Edward Dedeke, but Allene Wofford wondered if the word ' trained'' should be added in front of •recreation supe rvisor. '' "I think we should give the personnel hiring people a little credit," Hamil said. "I don't think they would hire someone who didn't know what he was doing." "I hope you're right," Wofford said. Board members would like to see a recreation coordinator hired, and put in charge of all city recreational sports and activities, the summer recreation program for school-age children, the scheduling of seasons for each sport (and perhaps the registration), indoor activities, the pools and bathhouse, and maintaining the existing luanda Recreation Center building Part-time use of the Center for recreation was stressed again, with Hamil adding "how much part-time will be up to the city, with the coat of operation offset by rental of the building." If council approves the parks board's recommendation, the fate of the I anda Recreation Center and the enhancement of the existing recreation division within the Parks and Recreation Department is sealed, See LANDA, Page 12 Film at 10 Staff photo by Canty Nu harrison No, this isn t the Eyewitness News team in action it's part of a three day workshop on arson sponsored by the New Braunfels Fire Department Firemen Kent Howard and Robert Reed do the filming as Lawrence Intrau, John Herber and Steve Woodward put out the fire, which was set on a beat up car in Cypress Bend Park as a practice exercise. Room tax, part two Hotel-motel tax debate surfaces again The vote was taken a month ago But the city's contract with the Chamber of Commerce for convention and tourism services didn't get signed without an argument. The argument was started by City Councilmember Barbara Tieken. That's not surprising, since Tieken was one of the two last month who voted against giving the chamber 80 percent of the city's room-occupancy tax to finance its tourism program. She and Max Winkler were in favor of giving a larger share to the community's arts organizations, which have been alloted IO percent of the room tax for the next two years. The remaining IO percent will be used by the city to maintain public facilities. At that time, Tieken was not satisfied with chamber executive Tom Purdum's account of how the money was being spent. She took particular exception to his claim that 50 percent of it (approximately $76,000 last year) went for "administrative costs " Tieken said that state and federal grant programs usually set an absolute maximum of 20 percent for administration. On Monday, Tieken again expressed her discontent with the audit report the chamber gave the city, and suggested tabling the tourism contract "until we can see when the money was spent, who it went to and what for." Councilmember Donnie Seay, who is also president of the Chamber of Commerce, saw nothing wrong with the report. He pointed out that the chamber uses the same auditor the city does. And he said the books are open; anybody that wants to can go and look at them. Seay challenged Tieken's assertion that financial reports from Circle Arts Theatre and the Mid-Texas Symphony Guild ( who each got a quarter of the arts cut last year) were "very detailed." "You call Circle Arts' report detailed?" demanded Seay. "Here it says, 'McCoy's, $16.98.' No purpose. Elizabeth Elliott, $37.' No purpose. 'Elizabeth Elliott. $15 Elizabeth Elliott, $135.' And soon." Tom Put durn, on hearing an account of the meeting on Tuesday morning, said Tieken was "way out in left field." "We have invited her down to look at our books. She and Mr. Winkler have received specific invitations," he said. He said he was getting tired of "innuendos" and implications that he and his eight-member staff were mismanaging public funds. See CHAMBER, Page 12InsideToday's Weather It will be windy, warm and humid today, with a 40 percent chance of afternoon thunderstorms. A lake wind advisory is in effect, with south to southeast winds at 15-25 mph and gusty today.

NBI8D; Any registered voter in the New Braunfels Independent School District, who expects to ba out-of-town for the April 2nd school board election, may cast an absentee ballot with the district's central administrative office on West Mill Street across from the old high school. Three places are up for grabs on the NBISD board of trustees. Incumbents Rudy Reimer, place 6 and Bob Self, place 4 are both seeking re-election. Self is running unopposed, but Reimer faces opposition from David Cook and Jose Valdemar Espinoza. The third spot on the NBISD board is that at place 4 which come April will be vacated by incumbent Dr. William Lee Jr., who decided not to seek another term. Lee's soon-to-be-vacant seat on the board has drawn much interest as four candidates are seeking it. These include Gladys Bartling, Ronald Dalrymple, Bonnie U hr Denson and Christina Zamora. CISD: Voters may cast absentee ballots from 8 a m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday at the Central Office, 1421 Hwy. SIE. There is only one race on the ballot, since CISD is reducting its board from nine to seven members to comply with state law. Two incumbents — Judy DeVillez and Ray Soechting — did not run for the lone spot. Incumbent Erwin Lehmann faces Selden G. Becker of Canyon Lake in the lone race. e New Braunfels: City voters may cast absentee ballots at City Hall, 202 N. Seguin, between 8 a m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Garden Ridge: City Hall on Timber Rose Drive is the absentee polling place. If it is not open (and it isn't all the time), contact City Secretary Millie Brown. Hie mayor's race and two council spots are up for grabs. Paul Davis faces Bob Kolstad for mayor; incumbent Robert Harmon and Ben White vie for council Place 3; and incumbent Neil Craigmile faces Robert Howey for Place 2. By JACQUELINE SMITH Staff writer A group of Lower Guadalupe River businessmen want a I percent county-wide sales tax implemented to fund a "management plan" to meet river-related problems. In Commissioners Court Monday, Betty Walls, president of the l>ower Guadalupe River Business Association (LGRBA), outlined her group's proposal calling for regulation of the recreational use of the Guadalupe River below Canyon Dam. Her group claimed that "this precious resource (Guadalupe River) is in danger of being destroyed by the large influx of people who descend upon us during the peak periods of our season." They blamed "the problems of overcrowding and overuse" on the "unpredictable fluctuations in the amount of water released from Canyon Dam." According to the association, "there has been inadequate consideration of the economic and ecological problems caused by dumping vast amounts of water." To fund their proposed plan, Walls' group suggested creation of the county sales tax, "part of which (is) to be earmarked for return to the river district or community." Other funds would come from licensing county commercial recreational rental businesses, including but not limited to canoes, rafts, kayaks and tubes. license fee would be $200 annually per business, according to the group's proposal. Commissioners Court took no action on the plan, although County Judge Fred Clark said "the court will seriously consider it...and you'll be seeing it back on the (court's) agenda in the near future." Commissioner J.L. "Jumbo" Evans asked Walls to forward her proposal to the Comal County Growth and Development Committee, which is assembling a study on the effects of growth and tourism on the county and its recreational aspects. Walls' group, which consists of 17 river outfitters or business-related members, reported that is "experiencing overdemand and overuse of the resource during the infrequent desirable water release periods and under-utilization during the frequent periods of too high or too low water release for recreational boating." As concerned businessmen, recreationists and land owners "with an investment of time and money" in the river, "we no longer feel the present water management plan for Canyon Dam is adequate to meet the needs of of all concerned," the group said. And the unrestricted use of the river has "brought about a condition of near anarchy. "Instead of a pleasant afternoon float down a clean, peaceful, and beautiful hill country river, our customers are now faced with piracy, vast amounts of litter, a polluted stream, bodily assault with and without deadly weopons, vast amounts of drunkenness, drug abuse, obscenity, and all types of illmannered indivduals," according to Ute association. Despite these problems, it is not too late, Walls group said to "turn back the clock with a sensible management plan that will return to us our beautiful, clean, clear Guadalupe River."

20:53 17th April 2010
Yeovil Town suffered late heartbreak for the second time in four days when a 93rd minute header from substitute Lee Barnard kept ten man Southampton's faint play-off hopes alive at Huish Park this afternoon.Barnard's header from a right wing cross gave the Saints maximum points in a tempestuous match that had everything in it including the dismissal of Morgan Schneiderlin in the 70th minute for violent conduct and should have seen another red card for Jose Fonte's 77th minute professional foul.
Huish Park's biggest crowd for two years, swelled by 2,000 Saints fans, created a buzzing atmosphere in the heat of Huish Park and the game matched the atmosphere.
Yeovil went into the game with an unchanged team for the third game running, the only changes being on the bench where Aidan Downes, Luke Ayling and Danny Hutchins dropped out to be replaced by Nathan Jones, Stefan Stam and Arron Davies.
The first twenty minutes saw the home side well and truly under the cosh as the visitors shoot-on-sight policy shone through. Seven times in the first eighteen minutes, the Saints had clear opportunities to score but a combination of wastefulness, good saves and a resolute defence denied Rickie Lambert three times. Adam Lallana, Dan Seaborne and Dean Hammond could also have given their side the lead.
In between times there was a glimmer of light for the home fans. Dean Bowditch and Gavin Williams were combining well up front and both players created chances for each other.Bit by bit, the Glovers inched their way back into the game. Bowditch's shot was smothered by Saints keeper Kelvin Davis and the gloveman denied Bowditch again seven minutes later.
Still the chances for either side went begging. Hammond blazed a chance right out of the ground after being set up by Michail Antonio while at the other end, Craig Alcock headed wide from a Williams cross.
Twice in the closing moments of the first half, sheer brilliance and vision from Williams created opportunities for Gavin Tomlin in near identical moves. The Welsh wizard sprayed pinpoint passes across to Andy Welsh on the left whose crosses landed at the door of Tomlin who was unlucky on both occasions not to open the scoring.
At half time, Saints boss Alan Pardew brought 25-goal striker Lee Barnard on for Antonio and the ex-Southend striker looked lively up front for the visitors.
The second half continued in the same vein as the first half had ended with chance after chance. Barely had one side's attack broken down than they were defending their own goal from an opposition thrust. Jason Puncheon's volley and Lee Barnard's curler came close for Southampton while Jean-Paul Kalala and Bowditch again were similarly near but not near enough.
One particualr Saint turned sinner with twenty minutes left when Frenchman Schneiderlin lashed out at Williams wide on the right hand side and was shown a straight red card.
Just seven minutes later, Williams again broke through clear of the last defender who hauled him down cynically. As both sets of spectators waited for the inevitable red card, referee Oli Langford opted to show just a yellow with an overly lenient decison.
made one last roll of the dice by throwing on two more strikers in Papa Waigo N'Daiye and David Connolly, effectively playing with four strikers in a switch intended to save his season.
The heartbreak came deep into the third minute of stoppage time when from a right wing cross, Barnard looped in a header past the despairing keeper Alex McCarthy.
Yet even then, symbolic of the topsy-turvy game, Steven Caulker of all people almost grabbed a late, late equaliser but poked his shot into the side netting.
For the second time this week, the Glovers have lost points deep into stoppage time so it takes the season on another week now and Terry Skiverton will hope his men can wrap things up at Brentford next weekend.
Town will visit Tiverton Town in a pre-season friendly on Saturday, July 29th (3pm kick-off).

YOUR MONEY-Net worth should not be a mystery to millennials
(The author is a Reuters contributor. The opinions expressed are her own.)
By Bobbi Rebell
NEW YORK, April 26 (Reuters) - Ignorance is not bliss when it comes to one big number for millennials: their net worth. The vast majority of millennials (73 percent of those 18 to 34) have no idea what they have versus what they owe, according to a new survey from Harris Poll conducted for online money manager Personal Capital (personalcapital.com).
John Piazza admits he is one of them, although the Chicago-based banking executive says he has a "decent idea" of his net worth (assets such as cash and mutual funds minus liabilities like student and credit card debt). Piazza estimates that about 80 percent of his friends do not have a handle on their total financial picture.
"It's time-consuming to gather all the disparate information together initially, and then it's a laborious process to update it going forward," Piazza says.
While it may be a hassle, not knowing where you stand now makes it much harder to plan for where you need to be later in life, especially for retirement, says Kyle Ryan, a certified financial planner, who is the head of advisory services at Personal Capital.
It is even harder to get a handle on the numbers for those who have an outsized vision of what they might inherit down the road - which might dim their motivation to save now. The Personal Capital survey on retirement readiness found that millennials expect to inherit about a million dollars, on average.
The average inheritance in the United States is just $177,000 according to a 2013 HSBC survey.
Counting on any kind of windfall, regardless of size, is a risky business. It certainly does not merit giving up on saving for retirement - as some 40 percent of millennials respondents did on Personal Capital's survey by saying they had no retirement plan of any kind started yet. Continued...

Alyson Schafer Advice: 8 Ways NOT To Raise A Sore Loser
I bought my niece her first board game. It was a version of Chutes and Ladders. She loved rolling the dice and counting the squares. Whoosh, a ladder! Up you go!
I was so excited watching her advance until she finally landed on the last square. I gave her a high five and cheered, "You won!" Then I removed her game player and proceeded to play on to see which cousin would come in second.
My niece burst into tears and said, "Why do they call it winning when I have to stop playing first?"
Wasn't she a wise child? She understood that it was playing the game that was the rewarding part, not the winning or losing. Children are not born competitive, but they are keen observers and quickly learn what is important and how to gain significance.
In North American families, children are socialized to compete and win. If you study children's games from around the world, you'll see that collective cultures have games that are more about how to work together, while games from individualistic cultures pit child against child to see who will top the other.
My niece broke into tears at the thought of not being able to continue playing. Other children when faced with losing might cry or throw themselves on the floor screaming, kicking the bench, throwing their hockey stick down or flipping the game board to catapult all the pieces in the air.
It's embarrassing for parents who know it's not very sporting, but it's also hard to watch our little charges take loss with such emotional devastation. So what's a parent to do?
Here are eight ways to not raise a sore loser.
1) Don't always let them win
When playing games with your child, allow them to experience both winning and losing. Pick games of chance as well as skill.
If children always wins, they come to expect they should always win rather than anticipating that either outcome is possible. "You win some, you lose some," as we say.
2) Focus on improvement not perfection
Of course it's exciting to cheer when someone gets a goal or shoots a basket, but too often the child misinterprets that recognition to mean that only points and winning are important. Be sure to pay as much (or more) attention to the process of play. Notice how their concentration, focus, hard work and training are paying off. For example: "Your footwork with the soccer ball is really coming along." Or, "You're really looking at all options before making your chess move."
3) Empathize and correct their mistaken belief
The emotional blow that comes from losing can be a child's disappointment in themselves, his or her "stinky thinking" or mistaken belief that he or she should always be first and best. In essence, some kids place excessive standards on themselves for their performance and feel their ego or personal worth is tied to their accomplishments. Losing is mistakenly seen as personal failure and reduces their feelings of worthiness.
We can help soften the blow by telling our kids we see how important it is for them to do well, but no person is perfect and they are no less lovable or likable. Explain to the child that if he or she always wins, others will be less interested in playing. The excitement of seeing who will win is part of the fun of the game, too.
4) Modelling
Be sure to be a good loser yourself, not just in sports and games, but in life. Demonstrate that we sometimes don't come out on top or get the best seats in the house. Don't bemoan your situation; roll with the punches. Practice saying, "You're right. I am wrong" or "I didn't get the table I wanted in the restaurant, but we can make due with this one."
5) Put emphasis on fun
Be sure you notice how much fun everyone has when people play using good sporting qualities. "Aren't we having a good time?" "I haven't laughed so hard in ages." "You are such good company when we play this way."
6) Refuse to play with poor sports
Poor behaviour should have consequences. If your children cheat or lie about what they rolled on the dice, or if a ball was out of play simply because they want to get ahead and win, refuse to play with them. Explain that it is not fun to play when people are not playing by the rules or playing with good character. Pack up and leave the game for today. Let them know you'll try playing with them next time.
7) Keep it on the down low
If they are storming around, don't correct their behaviour publicly in front of other parents or teammates. Take them aside and quietly explain their behaviour is not okay and that you'll discuss this matter later at home when they are calm again. Do your best to remove yourself and others from being in the audience to their displays of upset.
8) Co-operative games
Make competitive games less competitive by using cumulative scoring. If you play Scrabble and add everyone's points together, your goal is to top the last highest accumulated family score. The same works for bowling. There are co-operative board games. Ask your local toy store for recommendations.
Kids Stealing The Spotlight At Weddings
When Tennessee mother Michelle Hall got married, she wasn't the only one getting a kiss. Her 4-year-old daughter, Anderson, decided to get a smooch of her own, too, and surprised everyone when she planted one on the ring bearer, Ike. "I set up the entire wedding party for a formal shot as I do with every wedding, and then asked the bride and groom to kiss," photographer Leah Bullard told The Huffington Post. "Since Anderson had been calling herself the bride the whole day, she assumed I was referring to her and went in for a kiss, too. It was a memorable moment that had everyone in tears laughing."
"This photo was captured by my uncle at my mom's wedding to my step-father, when I was five. I was supposed to be flower girl and here is my mom trying to convince me to carry out my duties. I was unhappy about my haircut at the time being so bad and boyishly short. I was also unhappy about wearing a dress. I have never been very girly and can count the number of times I've worn a dress on one hand."
"My brother and sister-in-law got married about 17 years ago and my kids were asked to be in their wedding party… my son was the ring bearer, my oldest daughter was a junior bridesmaid and my youngest daughter was dressed in a miniature replica of the bride's gown. In this family photo, we look like a crazy family that just married off our two youngest children, my older daughter looks like she has one oddly placed prosthetic leg, and I'm rocking some sweet shoulder pads."
"We had darling two-year-olds for our ring bearer and flower girl. While we were trying to get a picture of me and my niece, the flower girl, our spirited ring bearer decided to have a yank at my veil which was of course cemented on to my head with a thousand bobby pins and hair spray. I thought he was going to pull out a chunk! Children are such angels."
