TOP STORY >> District's plan for facilites approved
Leader staff writer
In less time than it takes to tell, the Pulaski County Special School District School Board convened, approved a $97.2 million, 10-year facility-maintenance plan with an additional $11.6 million in capital improvements and adjourned.
Only four board members attended, but all Ronnie Calva, Dr. James Bolden III, Carol Burgett and Mildred Tatum voted to approve the plan.
The state-mandated Academic Facilities and Transportation Plan, which must be submitted to the state today, included $11.6 million in capital improvements between 2006 and 2009, with the new, $10.5 million Chenal Upper Elementary School in west Little Rock accounting for all but $1.1 million of that.
The state is expected to pay 18 percent of the cost of the capital improvements.
Schools in the Jacksonville and Sherwood areas are slated for $836,000 in capital improvements over those three years, nearly all of it in the form of roof improvements.
The bulk of the money in the plan was earmarked for regular maintenance and utilities for all the school buildings, directly tied to the number of square feet involved.
Those area schools identified for the improvements are:
2006-2007 school year
Homer Adkins Elementary School, roof, $120,000
Sylvan Hills Middle School, old band room/field house, roof, $20,000
Oakbrooke Elementary School, main building, roof, $190,000
2007-2008 school year
Homer Adkins Elementary School, asbestos abatement, $126,000
Jacksonville Middle School girls campus, cafeteria and classroom buildings, roof, $100,000
2008-2009 school year
Oakbrooke Elementary School kindergarten, roof, $130,000
The other capital expenditures over that three-year period are:
Fuller Middle School gymnasium, roof, $15,000
Scott Elementary School, roof, $140,000
Oak Grove High School, roof, $75,000
Mills High School, roof, $55,000.
The Chenal school will be built using proceeds from two debt restructurings approved by the voters in 2002 and 2004.
The plan includes facilities maintenance and operations costs for the next 10 years at the rate of $9.7 million dollars a year, split evenly among the schools based upon the total number of square feet for all the buildings constituting each individual school.
Those maintenance and operations costs include annual utilities, custodial, maintenance, repair and renovation activities and related personnel costs. There are 37 schools in the district, made up of 191 buildings, according to the information provided by Jerry Holder and James Warren, superintendent for support services.
Act 1426 of 2005 requires every school district to create and submit the master plans, with phase I, (2006-2009) due today. The state requires the districts to dedicate at least 9 percent of the $5,400 per student annual minimum foundation aid for maintenance.
The district receives that money for each of approximately 18,000 students each year, for a total of $97.2 million per year. Nine percent of that would be $8.75 million a year earmarked for maintenance, but the district opted to spend 10 percent per year, or $9.72 million a year, Warren said.
Although the master plan maintenance funding is prorated on the basis of square feet per school, the actual amount spent will probably vary from the amount shown, according to the cover letter prepared by the Department of Plant Planning.
The district covers about 730 square miles, requiring greater time and expense for transportation and maintenance needs, the district told the state in describing the geographic features of the district.
Other information the district submitted to the state indicated that the district has a housing boom in Maumelle, Scott, Sherwood, Jack-sonville and western Little Rock. Jacksonville alone has more than 17 developments with more than 1,500 lots.
In 2005, more than 337 new houses were built in Maumelle, with 783 more housing units slated for completion by the end of 2006.
Scott grew by an estimated 50 new houses in 2005 with another 600 slated between now through 2009. Sherwood growth was characterized as above average.
More school-aged children could be coming to Little Rock Air Force Base, and two new distribution companies were said to be coming to Scott. Asked to identify unique facility needs, the district noted that all districts were required to hire elementary music and art teachers in 2005-2006, but that many elementary schools didnt have classrooms equipped to accommodate music and art.

The dollar hit a seven-year low against the shekel. The U.S.
currency was valued at 3.996 shekels Monday, the first time it has sunk
below the 4-shekel mark since 2000. Analysts noted the dollar's international
slump as well as Israel's strong economy.
The exchange rate is bad
news for Americans visiting Israel, though it has meant a frenzy of
spending on imports and real estate in the Jewish state.

Guilty Plea In Hit And Run Case
UTICA, N.Y. (AP) _ A 53-year-old Pennsylvania man who was driving drunk has admitted running over and killing a central New York teenager on a bicycle.
Gary Svecz of Forest City, Pa. pleaded guilty in Oneida County Court on Wednesday to aggravated vehicular homicide. Svecz, whose blood-alcohol content was more than three times the legal limit at the time of the accident last May, told the court he didn't realize he had run over 13-year-old Neil Pedersen when his pickup truck veered off a road near Oneida Lake.
The Observer Dispatch of Utica reports that Svecz had been drinking rum in his hotel room before driving that night.
Svecz said he pleaded guilty to avoid putting everyone through a trial and faces six to 18 years in prison at sentencing Dec. 20.

If we had shell access, I have a script I use on all my box's that
remotely scp the crontab'd ipfw rules and generates a mrtg graph, plus
has a member login to show their usage for the month and how much they
have left according to their allocation. Currently I just use m0n0wall
as my wireless AP and wireless client to ISP on another location, but
force users to VPN into the server at 'base' which then does the ipfw
This is why it would be great to be able to set a gateway for dhcp
clients, I could then send them directly to 'base' without adding
additional 'fwd' rules via exec.php , or a function to add 'fwd' rules
in the 'rules' GUI would be excellent :)
I'm still running pb26r614 and havn't updated to version 1 yet as I
havnt needed to, plus the box on the remote location doesn't seem to
reboot properly via the web interface, so I am scared to do the update.
I'd have to drive to the persons site, hope they home and during this
time no one would have internet connection including me, all because
m0n0 freezez at boot with the si0 card (PC Card).

I use a script I hacked together from a program called bandwidthmonitor
- it adds a rule to ipfw with counters for all addresses aliased on the
box, and could in theory add any you want.
Then in a cron I pull this down to a database, for reporting, but you
could do something to create MRTG style files with it as well - could
probably hijack their code and replace the collection part to pull from
firewall counters instead of snmp.

7, 2006
- Friday - The Alitalia flight from Milan to Athens was about 20 minutes late
taking off. Paul picked me up at Athens airport as promised. It was
wonderful to see Paul with a sign "Mr. Carr" - I've always wanted to have
special treatment at an airport - a first for JoeTourist®.
(Greek Taxi Tours
in Athens Greece)
The other surprise at Athens airport - since Greece
and Italy are both in the European Union, there are no customs or immigration. Paul dropped me off at
Harry's place, and Harry met me at the door and showed me the apartment.
It's very basic, but clean, and has a small kitchen, fair-sized dining room and
bathroom, and 3 bedrooms. I have the place to myself for the week, so
that's nice!
Harry's Greece
Travel Guide
After the shopping trip I walk to the National
Archaeological Museum, which
is only 15 minutes' walk away. As with the museums in Italy, it is endless.
Hundreds of stelae, statues, and other artifacts from ancient times are
beautifully displayed. Admission is €6, and they close at 3pm today.
April 9, 2006 - Sunday - Today is a full day tour with Paul. I decided to do the
Circle Tour starting with Corinth, since getting to these sites without a car is
difficult. Paul picked me up at 8am and we headed out of Athens. After returning
from the tour, I have a nap and then go to the Ayah restaurant again this
evening. I have: simmered chicken and rice with Rocket salad - excellent!
Greek restaurants will put oil and vinegar on most salads unless you catch them
first. As well, olive oil is poured on almost all main courses.
April 11, 2006 - Tuesday - I slept in this morning, but by 10am I took the metro
from Omonia to Akropoli Station again, but this time I was heading the other way
to Hadrian's Arch and the Temple of Olympian Zeus. I initially walked in
the wrong direction and ended up in the Koukaki district at Syngrou-Fix metro
station, but soon found my way back.
I then crossed the street to see the Zapion and the National Garden. The
Zapion and surrounding fountain, gardens
and restaurant is impressive, however
the National Garden is mundane. I tried to visit the highly recommended Benaki Museum,
however it is closed on Tuesdays. I obviously didn't read my guide book carefully!
After returning home, I catch up on my journal, then lay down for an hour before going out to dinner around 7:45pm. Ayah again for dinner: Roca salad and stuffed pork with roast potatoes. I had planned to have Gemista tonight, but they didn't have it. The pork was very tasty though. It's 8:30pm and the restaurant is empty. Greeks certainly eat late!
April 12, 2006 - Wednesday - I set my alarm for 7am and was out the door shortly after 8am. I am at the Acropolis entrance and want to see the Acropolis Museum. The only problem is the ticket I have can only be used once for the Acropolis itself! Read the guidebook more carefully next time, Joe. I see some of the other nearby sites: the Tower of the Winds, Roman Agora, the Roman Forum, and the Library of Hadrian. I have some lunch near the Thissio metro station, then walk through the Monastiraki area.
I get on the metro Blue Line at Monastiraki and get off at Syndagma, the closest station to Lykavitos Hill, my next target. The funicular train takes people to the top of the hill for €4.50 (return). There are also stairs to the top of the hill for those so inclined (pun intended). There are wonderful unobstructed views of the whole of Athens from the top. There is also a rather expensive restaurant at the top, as well as a small chapel dedicated to St. George.
I take the train back down the hill, then walk back to the Benaki Museum. I
notice police paddy wagons parked in the side streets, and there is a protest
happening across the street at the side of the Parliament. I quickly duck inside.
The woman who sells me the admission said they were all crying a half hour
ago, since the riot police had used tear gas.
April 13, 2006 - Thursday - Cape Sounio & the Temple of Poseidon - Paul picks me up at 8am for our pre-arranged tour to Cape Sounio to see the Temple of Poseidon, and then drops me off at the Irini metro station after showing me the outside of the New Olympic Stadium.
I lay down for an hour before going out to dinner at 8pm. Ayah again for my
last dinner in Athens: Rocket salad and rabbit in lemon sauce with roast potatoes
and rice. The rabbit is delicious, but has small bones. Since I'm now considered
a "regular", I'm served a dessert gratis: a small square pudding with citrus peal, currents and dusted
with cinnamon - delicious.

Vernita Green and O-Ren Ishii are down, but for the Bride (Thurman), there's still three to go - Budd (Madsen), the murderous one-eye Elle Driver (Hannah), and the big bad voodoo daddy of them all, Bill (Carradine)…
Despite stronger critical notices than its superior anterior, the fourth-and-a-bit movie by Quentin Tarantino arrives on DVD with enough indecent haste to make one wonder if the studio has belatedly acknowledged that it struggled to stand alone. Hmmm. Well, taking our lead from QT's recent combined Cannes cut, the correct way to experience Vol. 2 is this: 1) Watch Vol. 1 first, ejecting the disc before Bill's final, 'Does she know?' line. 2) Take a tea break. 3) Skip Vol. 2's 'Previously on Kill Bill' catch-up and settle down for the denouement.
Inspected at such close quarters, even QT groupies may determine just how undisciplined the original '90-minute' (sic) screenplay must have been. The impounded Pussy Wagon is excused in a throwaway quip, but what happened to the 'death list five' - so redolent of The Bride's state of mind in Vol. 1? And if the manga'd-up O-Ren origin was considered so fundamental that an entire chapter was lavished on it in Vol. 1, where is the back-story for Elle Driver or Budd or Beatrix Kiddo? (Okay, so she once sparred with a stock Shaw Brothers' villain, but how and, moreover, why did she become an assassin in the first place?)
You could argue that such nitpicking is glib - after all, KB is an anthology told in contrasting east-west genres. And yet, to understand just how much damage was inflicted on Vol. 2 - as opposed to Vol. 1 - by this lack of discipline and the consequent decision to hack the film in half, consider The Brideís reaction to the revelation that her presumed-dead foetus survived and has been raised by her nemesis. Physically exhausted, emotionally spent and in total shock, Thurman - in her best moment - sinks to her knees.
QT designed this twist so that we would share not only Kiddo's pain, but her fatigue and her surprise also. Following the original blueprint, the audience would barely have recovered from the bloody Blue Leaves battle and we would have NO IDEA the unborn child had survived - instead, we've coasted through an incident-packed but hardly shattering 90 minutes waiting for Kiddo to discover what we already know, and for an action climax to rival Vol. 1's set-piece that never arrives.
Taken together, the structure of Kill Bill is so ramshackle that you don't have to be Miramax's fabled Harvey Scissorhands to identify those extraneous episodes that could have been saved for DVD had the studio not ripped up its own rulebook to accommodate their house genius. But - and this is a BIG BUT - you can understand why QT was personally loath to lose, well, anything really, because even Vol. 2's most unpromising detours slough off effortless cool - do we need to see the enterprising Bride ask directions from Esteban Vihaio? No. Is Michael Parks' woman-hating pimp entertaining? Yes.
Besides, there is now no reason to view Vol. 2 in isolation ever again (naturally, it still has to be purchased separately) and, reunited with its more kinetic, eye-catching predecessor, its function as the feminine Yin to Vol. 1's Yang becomes clear. With Bill killed and her child returned, The Bride is finally satisfied - and at the end of another long-awaited reunion, so are we.
It may not extend the world in a way that proper sequels should, but it supplies interiors and intensity, providing characters room to breathe - and speak. Equally, Vol. 2's third act may not compete in the action or iconography stakes, but removed from these needless comparisons, the intimate, altogether emotional ending hits all the right notes and provides a perfect balance.

It's Complicated: The American Teenager
by Robin Bowman
Robin Bowman's five-year journey into the heart of teenage America created a series of 414 "collaborative portraits," wherein she shares her discoveries of a generation now coming of age. In searing and intimate photographs, presented alongside the young people's voices of passion, pride, embarrassment, lust, pain, bewilderment, anxiety, joy, uncertainty, and rage, the book charts the coming of age of the largest generation in America - 77 million strong - in every region of the country and every socioeconomic group: from a Texas debutante to teenage gang members in New York City, from a drag queen in Georgia to a coal miner in West Virginia.
Waiting for Normal
by Leslie Conner
Addie is waiting for normal. But Addie's mom has an all-or-nothing approach to life: a food fiesta or an empty pantry, jubilation or gloom, her way or no way. All or nothing never adds up to normal. All or nothing can't bring you all to home, which is exactly where Addie longs to be, with her half sisters, every day. In spite of life's twists and turns, Addie remains optimistic. Someday, maybe, she'll find normal.
Mexican White Boy
by Matt de la Pena
Danny's tall and skinny. Even though he's not built, his arms are long enough to give his pitch a power so fierce any college scout would sign him on the spot. But at his private school, they don't expect much else from him. Danny's half-Mexican brown and growing up in San Diego they've got him pegged - before they find out he can't speak Spanish, and before they realize his mom has blond hair and blue eyes. Danny's convinced it's his whiteness that sent his father back to Mexico and why he's spending the summer with his dad's family. Only, to find himself, he might just have to face the demons he refuses to see right in front of his face.
Bog Child
by Siobhan Dowd
Digging for peat in the mountain with his Uncle Tally, Fergus finds the body of a child, and it looks like she's been murdered.
As Fergus tries to make sense of the mad world around him - his brother on hunger-strike in prison, his growing feelings for Cora, his parents arguing over the Troubles, and him in it up to the neck, blackmailed into acting as courier to God knows what - a little voice comes to him in his dreams, and the mystery of the bog child unfurls.
The Hunger Games
by Suzanne Collins

The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV.
Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the Games. But Katniss has been close to dead before...

Early life
Lisa Marie Presley was born at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee,[2] exactly nine months after her parents' wedding. She lived with her mother, after her parents had divorced.[3] Lisa went between homes in LA with her mother (Priscilla Presley) and in Memphis with her father (Elvis) or on tour with him in various cities.
When her father died, 9 year old Lisa Marie became joint-heir to his estate with her grandfather Vernon Presley and her great-grandmother Minnie Mae Presley. Following the deaths of Vernon in 1979 and Minnie Mae in 1980, Lisa became the sole heir and inherited Graceland. In 1993, on her 25th birthday, she inherited the estate, which had grown to an estimated $100 million. It is reported that Lisa sold 85% of her fathers estate [4]
Music career
On April 8, 2003, Presley released her debut album, Smashing Pumpkins for a co-written track called "Savior", which was included as the B-side.
Los Angeles Times critic Robert Hilburn reviewed Presley's debut album. He said, "The music on her new album has a stark, uncompromising tone" and "Presley's gutsy blues-edged voice has a distinctive flair."[5]
Her second album, released April 5, 2005, Now What, reached No. 9 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. Presley co-wrote 10 songs and recorded covers of Don Henley's "Dirty Laundry" (the album's first single, which hit No. 36 on the Billboard 100 AC singles chart),[6] and the Ramones' "Here Today and Gone Tomorrow". The song "Idiot" is a jab towards different men in her life. Unlike her first album, Now What included a Parental Advisory sticker. Presley covers Blue Öyster Cult's "Burnin' for You" as a B-side. Pink makes a guest appearance on the track "Shine".
Her third album, [7] It is produced by Oscar and Grammy winner T-Bone Burnett.[8]
Allmusic offered this view: "On her first two albums, Lisa Marie Presley wanted to be a pop star with a difference; on Storm & Grace, she clearly would rather be an artist, and if she's still working her musical shortcomings out of her system, this is a stronger, more mature, and more effective work than one might have expected. Nearly ten years into a recording career she may or may not have wanted, Presley is finally developing a musical personality that truly suits her."[9]
Spinner.com observed: "Presley has made the strongest album of her career in the upcoming Storm & Grace. It's a moody masterpiece, exploring the demons and angels of her life to the tune of country-spiced downbeat pop."[10]
Entertainment Weekly praised the "smoky, spooky" single "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet".[11]
Pat Benatar and Lisa Marie Presley performed at the VH1 Divas Duets, a concert to benefit the VH1 Save the Music Foundation held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on May 22, 2003, in Las Vegas. Together they sang Benetar's hit "Heartbreaker", which Presley frequently performed at her own concerts on tours afterward.[12]
Also in 2003, Presley contributed a recording of "Silent Night" for the NBC Holiday Collection, Sounds of the Season. Other artists singing on this collection include Kylie Minogue, Coldplay, Michael Bublé, Carly Simon and Bonnie Raitt.
In 2006 a documentary about Johnny Ramone of the rock group the Ramones was released called Too Tough to Die: A Tribute to Johnny Ramone. Directed by Mandy Stein, the film shows Deborah Harry, the Dickies, X, Eddie Vedder, Lisa Marie and the Red Hot Chili Peppers as they stage a benefit concert to celebrate the Ramones' 30th anniversary and to raise money for cancer research.[13]
In August 2007, the single "In the Ghetto" was released. Elvis Presley had originally released the single in 1969. In the new version, Lisa "duets" with her father. The video, simultaneously released with the single, reached No. 1 on the iTunes sales and No. 16 on Billboard 's Bubbling Under Hot 100 singles chart.[14] The song was recorded to commemorate the thirtieth anniversary of her father's death. Lisa Marie said she decided not only to sing, but to sing with him. "I wanted to use this for something good," she told Spinner, so she filmed the video in New Orleans. Proceeds from the video and single benefited a new Presley Place Transitional Housing Campus there.[15] Lisa Marie appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show to perform the song with the Harlem Gospel Choir, using vintage footage of her father.[16]
In October 2009, she joined singer Richard Hawley on stage in London. She sang vocals on a song the pair had been working on called "Weary".[17] Hawley wants to help Presley relaunch her music career, and the two have embarked on a songwriting partnership in which Lisa writes the lyrics and Hawley the music. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Presley said that she was currently recording a new album in London due to be released in 2011.[18][19]
T-Bone Burnett said of collaborating with Presley on Storm & Grace (2012): "When songs from Lisa Marie Presley showed up at my door, I was curious. I wondered what the daughter of an American revolutionary music artist had to say. What I heard was honest, raw, unaffected and soulful. I thought her father would be proud of her. The more I listened to the songs, the deeper an artist I found her to be. Listening beyond the media static, Lisa Marie Presley is a Southern American folk music artist of great value."[20]
Music videos
In 1997, Lisa Marie made a video of "Don't Cry Daddy" as a duet with her father. This video was presented on August 16, 1997, at the tribute concert that marked the 20th anniversary of Elvis' death. The video has Elvis' original vocal to which new instrumentation and Lisa Marie's vocals were added; the recording was not for commercial use. The song created a renewed interest in her as a recording artist. It displayed the husky timbre in her voice.[21]
Lisa Marie's video for her debut single "Lights Out" premiered in February 2003. Directed by Francis Lawrence, the video was from her album To Whom It May Concern.[22] Her second video from that album was directed by Barnaby Roper and shot in New York for the song "Sinking In".[22]
On Presley's second album in 2005, her first single and video was for a cover of Don Henley's "Patrick Hoelck teamed with Lisa Marie for her second video from that album for the song "Idiot" and shot the video in downtown Los Angeles. Through the video Lisa follows a woman through the streets. We never see her face until the end, when she gets in a cab with Lisa, putting her face to face with another version of herself.
Presley teamed up again with Director Tony Kaye (American History X) for the video of "In The Ghetto." Lisa Marie Presley filmed the video 'In the Ghetto', featuring her late father Elvis, in hurricane-ravaged New Orleans. All proceeds from the video and single went to benefit a new Presley Place transitional housing campus there. "I wanted to use this for something good," Lisa Marie told Spinner of the posthumous duet.[23]
In 2006 Presley was asked to take part in a video of Johnny Cash's "God's Gonna Cut You Down". Rick Rubin produced the record and Tony Kaye directed the video which featured Lisa Marie Presley, Iggy Pop, Kanye West, Chris Martin, Kris Kristofferson, Flea, Chris Rock, Justin Timberlake, Sheryl Crow, Dennis Hopper, Bono, Shelby Lynne, Jay-Z, Keith Richards and Johnny Depp and won a 2008 Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video.
Presley appeared in Michael Jackson's 'You Are Not Alone' video in June 1995, directed by Wayne Isham.[22]
On September 26, 2002, Lisa Marie Presley addressed a Congressional hearing in opposition to the use of medication in treating ADHD, stating: "I have spoken to children who have been forced to take a cocaine-like stimulant to control their behavior; I have shared their sense of sheer desperation. Children have been wrenched from their family's care simply because their parents favored an alternative, drug-free approach to addressing educational and behavioral problems. The psychotropic drugging of millions of children has to stop."[24] Addressing the Committee as the International Spokesperson for Children's Rights, for the Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR), Presley commented on this lack of information provided to parents: "I want to emphasize looking for drug free answers. Only by looking for alternatives to drugs will parents discover for themselves the numerous simple, workable and drug-free answers to the problems of attention, behavior and learning. A child could suffer from allergies, lead poisoning, eyesight or hearing problems, or be simply in need of tutoring, or something even more basic than that—phonics. Instead of supporting what is drug pushing, our governments, schools and doctors must ensure that all—not carefully selected—information is made available to parents in order for them to make an informed choice about their child's educational and medical needs".[25]
In December 2004, President Bush signed legislation prohibiting forced psychiatric drugging of schoolchildren and Presley applauded Congress for passing precedent-setting legislation that bans school personnel from forcing parents to drug their children for classroom or behavioral problems.[26]
On September 6, 2006, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg Proclaimed MAC Viva Glam Day in New York City with Spokespeople Lisa Marie Presley, Eve and Dita Von Teese.[27] All monies raised from the sale of the MAC Viva Glam lipstick went to the MAC AIDS Fund.
Charity work and humanitarian efforts
In October 1997, Presley along with friend and fellow Memphian Isaac Hayes, opened the Literacy, Education and Ability Program (LEAP). LEAP is a free program for children and people of all ages in Memphis, Tennessee. LEAP provides effective educational services and materials that help people learn how to learn and study effectively and thereby have the ability to achieve their goals and realize their full potential. LEAP is run by Applied Scholastics.[28]
The Elvis Presley Charitable Foundation (EPCF) was formed by Graceland/Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc. in 1984 to continue Elvis' own tradition of generosity and community service and to honor his memory. The EPCF is overseen by Lisa Marie Presley, chairperson, and the management team of Graceland/Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc. In 2001, Presley Place opened to its first residents. Presley Place provides homeless families up to one year of rent-free housing, child day care, career and financial counseling, family management guidance and other tools to help them break the cycle of poverty and regain self-esteem and independence. Also funded by the EPCF is the Elvis Presley Music Room, where the youngsters of Presley Place and other may enjoy access to musical instruments and instruction and participate in special related programs. The EPCF created the Elvis Presley Endowed Scholarship Fund at the College of Communication & Fine Arts at the University of Memphis to assist students majoring in areas of the arts. "All of us with the EPCF and Elvis Presley Enterprises are extremely proud of this amazing facility," stated Presley. "The work that MIFA (the Memphis-based Metropolitan Inter-Faith Association) does truly has an impact on peoples' lives and we look forward to this collaboration."[29]
Presley joined Oprah Winfrey and her Angel Network and was active in the relief efforts after hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans and surrounding areas. Presley gave a helping hand in Memphis, Tennessee. "I'm here," she said, "because I definitely needed to do something, and it just so happens this is where I'm from. I'm going to do everything I can. People need help—this is a huge catastrophe and everyone needs to stand up." Her first stop was a food bank, where, with the help of FedEx and Kroger, Lisa Marie loaded a truck with groceries. Then it was time for a pit stop at Target for toiletries and clothes. "I thought I was going to grab a couple things at the store," Presley said, "and I ended up filling up a truck. I went a little crazy." Presley's final destination was the Grand Casino Convention Center in Mississippi to distribute the supplies to people who had lost everything. One evacuee said, "I really appreciate everything Ms. Presley is doing for us. We have nothing, so we're very grateful for everything she's doing".[30]
In 2011, Presley became a patron of the Dream Factory, a charity based in [32]
Grammy Foundation
On June 6, 2004, Presley was on hand as the Grammy Foundation, in partnership with 7-UP, named Long Beach Polytechnic High School a Gold Grammy Signature School at Scottish Rite Cathedral in Long Beach, California. Created in 1998, the GRAMMY Signature Schools program recognizes top U.S. public high schools that are making an outstanding commitment to music education during an academic school year. Presley presented the custom award and a monetary grant to benefit the school's music program. On October 22, 2005, Presley presented a special award to Isaac Hayes at the Memphis Recording Academy Honors. A host of hometown stars gathered to see Presley, Justin Timberlake, Isaac Hayes and David Porter honored by the Memphis chapter of the Recording Academy. Presley and music producer Jimmy Jam presented the award to Hayes.[33]
On November 11, 2005, Presley participated in a GRAMMY SoundCheck at LA's House of Blues, during which she and other industry professionals met with a group of music students to discuss career opportunities available to them within the music industry.[34]
Awards and honors
On January 5, 2002, Presley received the Humanitarian Award from the World Literacy Crusade for her efforts to help children across America learn valuable skills for study and improve their lives. Lisa Marie Presley received her award from Isaac Hayes, Chaka Khan and Yolanda King, daughter of the late Martin Luther King Jr.[35] World Literacy Crusade is also regarded by critics as a front group for the Church of Scientology.[36]
On June 12, 2005, Presley received recognition as the Favorite Female rock Vocalist from ASYM, the Association of Songwriters and Young Musicians. The award was presented to her by producer and collaborator

In November 1975, her father named one of his private aircraft, a converted Convair 880 jet (original passenger capacity: 100), after her.[70] Elvis spent upwards of $1,000,000 refurbishing it to use as his main transport while on tour.[70] The "Lisa Marie" and one of Elvis' other planes, "Hound Dog II", are currently on exhibit at the Graceland mansion museum of Elvis Presley in Memphis, Tennessee.[70]
Aircraft "Lisa Marie"
The personal exhibit looks at Lisa Marie's experience of growing up with a famous father. Home movies, toys and rarely seen family mementos are among the many items on display.[69]
In February 2012, Lisa Marie Presley opened a new exhibit, "Elvis ... Through His Daughter's Eyes". It is now included in the Graceland VIP Tour, and features 200 items assembled by Lisa Marie and the Graceland Archives team.[68]
"Elvis Through His Daughter's Eyes" Exhibit
Lisa Marie Presley continues to be involved, as does her mother Priscilla. Lisa Marie Presley retains 100% sole personal ownership of Graceland Mansion itself and its over 13-acre original grounds and her father's personal effects – meaning costumes, wardrobe, awards, furniture, cars, etc. She has made the mansion property and her father's personal effects permanently available for tours of Graceland and for use in all of EPE's operations.[67]
In 1998, Lisa became more closely involved with the management team of the Elvis Presley Trust and its business entity, Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc.(EPE). She was owner and Chairman of the Board until February 2005, when she sold 85% of the estate's business holdings to CKX, Inc., excluding Graceland itself and the property within it.[65]
On her 25th birthday in 1993, Lisa Marie inherited Elvis' estate, which, thanks largely to the stewardship of her mother, Priscilla, had grown to an estimated $100 million.[66]
After Elvis' death at Graceland on 16 August 1977, his will appointed his father, Vernon Presley, executor and trustee. His fortune had dwindled to only $5 million.[64] The beneficiaries of the trust were Vernon, Elvis' grandmother Minnie Mae Presley, and his nine-year-old daughter Lisa Marie Presley, whose inheritance was to be held in trust until her 25th birthday.[65] After Vernon's death in 1979, Elvis' ex-wife Priscilla Presley was named as one of three trustees in his will; the others being the National Bank of Commerce in Memphis, and Joseph Hanks, who had been Elvis and Vernon's accountant.[65] With Minnie Mae's passing in 1980, Lisa Marie became the only surviving beneficiary named in Elvis's will.[65]
Elvis Presley estate
|I was slowly starting to self-destruct, and I didn't know where that was coming from. I started to uncover the main person who was really close to me for years, and then it was a domino effect. I was devastated...I got bad advice. I was insulated with no grip on reality. They were taking my soul, my money, my everything.[63]
Lisa Marie, like her mother Priscilla Presley, has been a member of the Church of Scientology. However, in May 2012, rumors of Lisa Marie leaving Scientology began to surface.[62] Of her decision to leave Scientology, Presley told USA Today:
In a 2013 interview with Luka Neskovic, for The Huffington Post, Presley said that maybe one day she will write an autobiography, stating: "It's not out of the question. I would like to have my life out there in my own words, rather than speculations.".[61]
Presley stated that she and her family have moved to the United Kingdom: "We have found the quality of life so much more enriching and fulfilling. The civility, the culture, the people and its beauty have reawakened me and have smoothed out some of my bleak and jagged views about people and life."[60] In August 2010, Presley and her family were reported to have bought an £8-million stately home in Rotherfield, East Sussex.[1] She also said recently that Los Angeles had "gotten dramatically worse in the last five or six years, even more shallow if that's even possible."
Presley married for a fourth time on January 22, 2006, to Michael Lockwood, her guitarist, music producer and director.[53] Keough served as best man at the couple's wedding, held in Japan. Priscilla Presley walked her down the aisle in front of sixteen guests. In March 2008, Presley announced that she was pregnant, following speculation over her apparent weight gain.[54] Her husband is a first-time father.[55] On October 7, 2008, Presley gave birth to fraternal twin girls, Harper Vivienne Ann and Finley Aaron Love[56] via Caesarean section. The twins weighed 5 pounds 2 ounces (2.3 kg) and 5 lb 15oz (2.7 kg), respectively.[57][58] Twins run on both sides of Presley's family; her father Elvis had a stillborn twin brother and her mother Priscilla has younger brothers who are twins.[59]
Presley's third marriage was to Cage.[51] They were married on August 10, 2002, in an oceanside ceremony near the Mauna Lani Bay Hotel on the Big Island of Hawaii. Cage had proposed just ten days earlier. Cage filed for divorce after 108 days of marriage, on November 25, 2002, and the divorce was finalized on May 16, 2004. The divorce proceeding lasted longer than the marriage.[52]
In an October 2010 interview with talk-show host Oprah Winfrey, Lisa Marie told Oprah that she and Michael Jackson spent the four years following their divorce together, on and off, in an attempt to reconcile and said that she had traveled to different parts of the world in order to be with him.[48] Presley was engaged in 2000 to rocker John Oszajca.[49] She broke off the engagement after meeting Nicolas Cage at a party.[50]
Twenty days after her divorce from Keough, Presley married singer Michael Jackson.[41] They had first met in 1975 when a seven-year-old Presley attended several of his concerts in Las Vegas.[6] According to a friend of Presley's, "their adult friendship began in November 1992 in L.A."[42] They stayed in contact every day over the telephone. As child molestation accusations became public, Jackson became dependent on Lisa for emotional support. She was concerned about his faltering health and his addiction to drugs.[43] Lisa explained, "I believed he didn't do anything wrong, and that he was wrongly accused and, yes, I started falling for him. I wanted to save him. I felt that I could do it."[44] Shortly afterwards, she tried to persuade Jackson to settle the allegations out of court and go into rehabilitation to recover. He subsequently did both.[43] In January 1996, citing irreconcilable differences, Lisa Marie filed for divorce, according to legal papers.[45][46] Michael Jackson had originally planned to file for divorce first. However after Presley begged him not to file, Jackson caved in only to discover front page the next day that Presley had filed for divorce.[47]
Presley married musician Danny Keough on October 3, 1988. They had two children together: Riley Keough (born May 29, 1989) and Benjamin Keough (born October 21, 1992). Presley announced their separation to the press in April 1994 and obtained a quickie divorce in the Dominican Republic on May 6, 1994.[39][40]
Marriages and relationships
Personal life
"Now, Therefore, I, A.C. Wharton, Jr., Mayor of Memphis, TN, do hereby recognize the lifelong service of this illustrious humanitarian and philanthropist."[38]
"Lisa Marie Presley is a humanitarian and philanthropist who continues to focus her efforts on the hometown she knows and loves, Memphis. Through her efforts and time she has improved homelessness, literacy, and raised funds for local charities and organizations. She raises awareness for Memphis and continues to set an example of what one person can do when they put their mind to it.
As stated in a proclamation received from the City of Memphis on June 18, 2011:
On June 24, 2011, Presley was awarded in the state of Tennessee where the Governor, Bill Haslam, proclaimed a day of recognition for Presley to honor her charitable efforts.[38]

digging the litter almost completely out of the LK then just sitting on top
I have 2 cats that are bro (Leo) and sis (Simba) from same litter and are 7 months old. Both have shared a large covered pan in the bathroom right next to the toilet since they were litter trained with no problems at all. Simba is a digger. I have tried different depths of litter and no matter what she is digging to the bottom to the point that there are scratches in the bottom of the pan and she looks like she was in a dust storm. I just purchased the LK and placed it in place of the normal pan and put away the old one like instructed. Leo seems to have no problem, but Simba was just digging the litter almost completely out of the LK then just sitting on top of the LK all dusty. She does not go, she just sits there. I tried more litter / less litter, same thing. I sat there with her trying to encourage her until she got to the point of letting me know she had to go but wouldn't use the LK. I reset up the old box and away she went like normal (Also the digging to china part.) HELP !

Beppe Sannino believes "heart and adrenaline" helped new Watford signing Daniel Tozser impress during his debut and that the new Watford signing will find his second match more difficult.
The experienced Hungary international had not played a competitive game all season prior to joining the Hornets on loan from Genoa last week.
However, the ex-Genk captain impressed in the holding midfield role on Sunday and was part of a side which largely nullified Brighton & Hove Albion's threat.
After the match, Sannino said: "Tozser gave us some more options in the middle. I am sure the next game will be tougher for him because in the first game you play for your new club, you end up playing with your heart and adrenaline. But as he has not been playing much before today, the next game could be tougher because of fitness. We will watch him in the coming week and work with him."
Tozser started his career at Debrecen and joined Galatasaray in his teens but was unable to break into the team at the Turkish club.
The 28-year-old returned to his native Hungary with Ferencváros and scored four goals in 60 appearances during his two-year stay at the Budapest club.
AEK Athens signed the player in 2006, where he tasted Champions League football for the first time. He made 56 outings and scored three goals during two years at the club.
In 2008 Belgian side Genk reportedly paid around €1.5m to sign the defensive midfielder, who can also play on the left side.
During his four-year stay at the club, he made 159 appearances and scored 22 goals, where he again featured in the Champions League.
Genoa beat a few Italian clubs to sign Tozser in 2012 but after 22 outings last season, he had only been an unused sub on five occasions during this campaign.

My Song A Love-Song Calling You From Far - Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey
The song of love sing I,
The song of love.
The song of love whistle I,
The song of love.
The song of love hum I,
The song of love.
You do not know, how do I love you?
How much do I love you?
My song calling you from far,
Just do not say goodbye to me.
Even if you have to go, go you definitely
But after hearing my song.
The song of love
Which want I to sing before as for your appreciation.
And taking your admiration, want I to go away
Whistling and humming my song.
The song of love my love, whistling and going
As if someone calling me from behind.
Asking to whistle and hum again, to sing it again
As so much so liked it.
My love,
I myself do not know, how mush do I love you?

Previous monitoring missions
February 2008: Joint World Heritage Centre / ICOMOS advisory mission
Factors affecting the property identified in previous reports
a) Noise pollution and traffic increase;
b) Potential impacts by Rhine crossing project.
Illustrative material see page http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1066/
Conservation issues presented to the World Heritage Committee in 2011
On 20 January 2011, the State Party submitted a state of conservation report addressing the recommendation of the World Heritage Committee at its 34th session (Brasilia, 2010) that any proposed bridge development should be considered within the context of an overall Master Plan for the property to ensure that the bridge contributes towards the overall sustainable development of the Upper Middle Rhine Valley.
a) Master Plan
The State Party reports that it proposes to draw up the Master Plan on the basis of the existing 2001 management plan and the draft Statement of Outstanding Universal Value submitted to the World Heritage Centre in January 2010 (which will be presented to the World Heritage Committee at its 35th session). The Master Plan will not only include an assessment of the management plan's implementation, but will also review noise pollution as well as demographic and economic developments. Moreover, by presenting the legal framework of the property, it might inspire law improvements. Furthermore, it will explore possibilities of private funding to conserve and develop the site. With a particular focus on creating synergies, the plan will aim to provide an overview of existing activities contributing to the protection of the property and to propose innovative collaborations.
The development of the Master Plan will be carried out by the federal government in collaboration with two federal states and local authorities. It will actively involve local stakeholders in order to foster stewardship of the site. A task force consisting of representatives of the various authorities has been set up. Work should commence in mid-2011 and is scheduled to last for three years.
b) Proposed bridge
The State Party reports that it considers that the World Heritage Committee "assumes that plans will be implemented with a view to constructing a bridge over the River Rhine". As a significant spatial development project, the construction of a bridge would need to satisfy a spatial planning procedure (Raumordnungsverfahren, ROV) to ensure that regional planning requirements are met through an assessment of the spatial compatibility of a project or plan. Settlements, infrastructure, environment, nature and landscape are considered.
The State Party reports that it is intended to start this process by mid-2011 and complete it by early 2012 and during the process new forms of stakeholder participation will be tested. It is further stated that with feasibility studies and expert reports on traffic, World Heritage compatibility and environmental impacts and an assessment of options already completed, the remaining task relates to spatial and technical details.
Analysis and Conclusions of the World Heritage Centre, ICOMOS and ICCROM
The World Heritage Centre and the Advisory Bodies note the details of the proposed wide ranging development of the Master Plan. They consider that, in line with the World Heritage Committee's decision, the Master Plan should provide the framework for sustainable development of the property and describe how a bridge might be compatible with sustainable development and with the site's Outstanding Universal Value.
In the second part of the report there appears to be an assumption that all background studies have been carried out for the proposed bridge and that only the spatial planning arrangements remain to be satisfied. However, the World Heritage Centre and the Advisory Bodies would like to recall that the impact assessments of the proposed bridge highlighted the extra traffic that would be generated – up to 2,000 extra cars a day – that would add significantly to pollution and noise levels, and that there is currently no clear understanding as to how a bridge might not be highly damaging to the cultural landscape.
As the State Party stated in its 2010 report, the bridge is only one option out of many that might be considered. The World Heritage Centre and the Advisory Bodies stress that it is essential for the Master Plan to be completed and approved before proceeding with any plans towards the construction of a bridge. This approach ensures that future developments take into account economic and social aspects of the valley in relation to the site's Outstanding Universal Value and meet sustainability goals.
Decision Adopted: 35 COM 7B.93
The World Heritage Committee,
1. Having examined Document WHC-11/35.COM/7B,
2. Recalling Decision 34 COM 7B.87 adopted at its 34th session (Brasilia, 2010),
3. Welcomes the information provided by the State Party on the progress towards the development of a Master Plan for the property that will set out how its Outstanding Universal Value will be sustained, and how the property might develop in a sustainable way in relation to traffic, noise pollution and demographic and economic developments;
4. Notes the details provided by the State Party for taking forward the spatial planning procedures for the bridge;
5. Recalls the need for any bridge development to be part of the overall sustainable development of the property;
6. Requests the State Party to finalize and submit to the World Heritage Centre for review the Master Plan before finalizing details of a bridge project in order that traffic and transport development are embedded in the overall sustainable approach to the property;
7. Also requests the State Party to submit to the World Heritage Centre, by 1 February 2013, an updated report on the state of conservation of the property and the implementation of the above, for examination by the World Heritage Committee at its 37th session in 2013.
Decision Adopted: 35 COM 8E
The World Heritage Committee,
1. Having examined Document WHC-11/35.COM/8E,

Flesh Photography - Photographing the Human Body
Tuesday, March 1, 2016 at 7:00 PM - Tuesday, March 22, 2016 at 9:30 PM (PST)
Event Details
No other type of photography draws as much admiration and appreciation as does Life Photography (A.K.A. photographing the human body), or more specifically, nudes. The curve of a woman's hip or the nape of a breast, the strength of a man's strong legs and the curves of his musculature, this is what this course will help you capture and honor.
Unlike our eyes, a camera can capture and freeze the human body in a way that can be appreciated for an eternity. Everyone can find beauty when looking at the human form, but when captured as the subject of art, the beautiful body has no bounds.
This fun, eye-opening and artistic course will teach you different and creative ways of capturing the beauty of the human body through the lens of your digital camera. Lessons will include; how to capture the human body's most minute details, like pores and hair follicles, to our most intimate of perspectives through the full-body, erotic nude. Students will learn how to capture the human form in a controlled studio setting as well as out in the light of day and dark of night.

I was able to sign in the link you provided. It just took me to my new email address Comcast gave me the other day. I need to get into my old address I use to have - the one that disappeared on my home computer. The email address I need to get back at home [email protected]
I am able to get [email protected]
I just replied a few seconds ago. Did you get it.
I do type in my email address, the old one, and it takes me to my new email address. It will not take me to old email address. Why can't I get into my old email address at home and I can at my office? Again, how do I confirm my email client on my computer?
When I type the old address on my home computer, I can't get into that address I have at the office. It won't let me. It just takes me to my new address.
I did this and it didn't work.
Forget it. I called Comcast and they were able to fix the problem.
