Chicago (AP) - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is among the candidates that President-elect Barack Obama is considering for secretary of state, according to two Democratic officials in close contact with the Obama transition team.
Clinton, the former first lady who pushed Obama hard for the Democratic presidential nomination, was rumored to be a contender for the job last week, but the talk died down as party activists questioned whether she was best-suited to be the nation's top diplomat in an Obama administration.
The talk resumed in Washington and elsewhere Thursday, a day after Obama named several former aides to President Bill Clinton to help run his transition effort.
The two Democratic officials who spoke Thursday did so on the condition of anonymity to avoid angering Obama and his staff. Clinton spokesman Philippe Reines referred questions to the Obama transition team, which said it had no comment.
Clinton's Senate office said only that she traveled to Chicago Thursday on personal business.
Other people frequently mentioned for the State Department job are Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., and New Mexico's Democratic governor, Bill Richardson.

Winstead Participates in Groundbreaking Ceremony for Buffalo Courthouse
As prepared for delivery
Remarks by
David Winstead
Commissioner, Public Buildings Service
U.S. General Services Administration
Buffalo Courthouse Groundbreaking
Buffalo, New York
October 9, 2007
Thank you very much.
Mayor Brown, distinguished guests, this is a very exciting day, one that continues to demonstrate GSA's commitment to the great and vibrant city of Buffalo.
I know that Administrator Doan shares my hope that this project stimulates an explosion of new growth downtown. As Commissioner of GSA's Public Buildings Service, few things give me greater pleasure than seeing our work trigger benefits that extend well into the community. Buffalo, with its rich history of support for architecture, the arts and culture certainly deserves a world-class courthouse and the new business and residents it will attract to the city.
I'd like you to meet the fabulous GSA team that has helped us get this far:
our Project Manager is Arnold Feinsilber;
Frank Cashman is our Contracting Officer; Jaime Quinones is our Contracting Officer's Representative;
David Monahan heads our Project Management Acquisition Branch and Alan Berman is the Project Management Branch Chief;
Kevin Bunker is Director of the Region's Project Management Division;
and John Scorcia is the Regional PBS Assistant Regional Administrator.
This project has been a long time coming and I thank the PBS team for getting us here today—to mark the official start of constructing what will be a magnificent courthouse.
Now it's my pleasure to bring up our Administrator. Lurita Doan came to GSA from the private sector, where she built and ran her own company. As CEO, she was responsible for all aspects of her firm, including its real property challenges. She negotiated leases for office space, and made the more difficult decisions regarding when to move, where to expand, the risks involved, and how to get the best possible deal.
Those experiences have served her well at GSA. We are the civilian government's primary federal real property and asset management agency, and the federal judiciary is among our most important clients.
Lurita's been on the job about 16 months now, and anyone at GSA will tell you that it's been a time of positive, transformational change.
We are a more creative, dynamic and customer-focused organization. I think you've already seen that demonstrated here in Buffalo. I think you're going to see more of the same in the months ahead.
This is the person who's most responsible: GSA Administrator Lurita Doan.

Clydesdale horses are known as the iconic figure of Budweiser Brewing, and have become famous in ads and appearances around the nation. These horses may seem distant, but such is not the case.
There are several of the magnificent animals right in our own backyard.
Justin Schendel, a 32-year-old construction worker who resides near Milaca, has been raising Clydesdales since the 1990s with his parents. Now, he and his wife Hope are in charge of the family owned and operated business, Schendel Clydesdales.
Schendel Clydesdales offers a number of services, including wedding and party carriage service, breeding, horses for sale, and showing.
The business is also registered with the Minnesota Draft Horse Breeders Association and owns a stud who has been grand champion at many fairs, including the Minnesota State Fair.
Getting his start
"How I got started was from my mom and dad," said Schendel.
Schendel's parents started Schendel Clydesdales as a family owned and operated business in 1994, but his family has had horses since he was three years old.
"I've been around horses my whole life," said Schendel.
Since then, he and his wife have continued to run the family business and the couple now owns 11 Clydesdales as well as a pony for their three children.
Schendel's horse business is truly a family affair. His brother raises Belgian horses, another draft breed, in North Dakota.
His mother, who now lives in Zimmerman, doesn't raise horses herself anymore, but Schendel said that she shows with him and helps with the horses.
Schendel also said that his cousin, Todd Schultz, helps with the horses as well.

A property in Cobham which was closed by police last year has been repossessed by Elmbridge Housing Trust.
Neighbours of 46 Queens Court Ride suffered months of persistent antisocial behaviour from the former occupants and visitors before the home was closed by Surrey Police on November 29.
The former occupants will not be able to return to the property after Kingston County Court ruled Elmbridge Housing Trust was entitled to repossess the property.
PCSO Hollie Iribar said: "I can honestly say that since number 46 has closed there has been a noticeable difference in the road. The numbers of residents who are now prepared to speak to us and work with us, since the property was repossessed, is very noticeable.
"I hope the action taken against the tenants demonstrates that Surrey Police and partner agencies will not tolerate antisocial behaviour and reinforces our commitment to ensuring Elmbridge remains a pleasant place to live and work."
Anyone who wants to report or discuss antisocial behaviour in their area should contact their safer neighbourhood team on 101.

Get Great Ideas For A Home Makeover From TV Home Improvement Shows
Gregg Hall
Now that we have satellite or DISH TV, with hundreds of channels there is virtually limitless information available on almost any subject matter and home improvement TV shows are no exception with many different styles of passing on their information. Some are actual arts and crafts type channels and some are total home improvement make over shows. I'm a guy and I even get into these. It's kind of cool to see how a project starts out and see the finished project in thirty minutes or an hour. HGTV is one such show and it's my wife's favorite. We could probably get by with that and ESPN and we would be just fine! You also see the Discovery channel offering lots of different types of home improvement shows and they are all very good and informative, although some can be a little on the boring side.
The craft style of home improvement TV shows is mainly aimed at older viewers who have an interest in woodwork and similar crafts. They usually show detailed instructions for restoring and creating new and wonderful things that you could use to improve your home with. There are also types of shows that are challenge style types so there are usually two teams battling it out for success and who ever has the best modification or has created the best craft wins. The prizes vary but often it isn't for anything major. These types of shows are the boring ones I mentioned, at lest they are to me!
Then there are also the make over home improvement TV shows, they feature specific rooms such as bathrooms bedrooms or sitting rooms which get a complete makeover from top to bottom, paint and furniture. They bring in a team of designers while the husband of the owner sends her away on a trip for a little while and have the surprise for her coming back which is great. Sometimes they send the whole family away for a little vacation! The really cool thing about these shows is that they show you all different kind of ways to spruce up your home with very little effort and money. Sometimes they even feature a whole house being totally redone!
Home improvement TV shows are becoming very common and are popular with young and old viewers alike. They are a great source of helpful and handy tips, advice and information on what is necessary to create that stunning home we have always wanted with minimal costs and effort plus they also show things that can go wrong which helps to prepare you for these things as well.

Tony Bennett is the Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction.
As the leader of Indiana's public school system, Tony Bennett has been both a lightning rod for criticism and a main factor behind changes to the state's education system for which conservatives have agitated for many years.
A former science teacher and schools administrator, Bennett won the post of Superintendent of Public Instruction in 2008, running as a Republican and garnering 51 percent of the vote. (Indiana is one of only 14 states where elections determine the chief education officer.) Since he took office, he's been an essential force in moving forward education priorities of Gov. Mitch Daniels' administration: school voucher programs, merit pay for teachers, and expansion of charter schools.
Bennett says this is just the start of his education overhaul. He, along with Daniels, says he is pushing to alter graduation requirements in state high schools to match more closely with graduate or career-based training.
Bennett's success in pushing through these reforms has raised his national profile.

And the mining tax war opened a new front, when the head of emerging miner Atlas Iron,
Speaking before a Perth business breakfast yesterday, Mr Gray said the asylum seeker issue had also been a factor in his margin dropping to as little as 3 per cent in the seat once held by Labor leader Kim Beazley.
"I know the election campaign is not going to be easy for Labor in WA, it is not easy to be Labor and west of Adelaide," Mr Gray said.
But under fire over the tax from deputy opposition leader
Ms Bishop rejected suggestions that the Coalition would allow the tax through the Senate, saying the party would oppose the proposal at all costs if it did not win government.
Separately, Mr Flanagan said the Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union campaign was supporting a deal that favoured the big miners who faced a lower tax under the government's proposal.
"The irony is that it was BHP and Rio who effectively killed the unions in the Pilbara," Mr Flanagan said.
"BHP and Rio have just been given the biggest free kick you can imagine. It means the union is supporting the majors' iron ore dominance over everyone else."
WA secretary of the CFMEU's mining and energy division, Gary Wood said there was no point raking over history, and the current reality was all mining companies could pay more tax.
The WA parliament yesterday debated an opposition motion in support of the federal government's tax package that would deliver the state an extra $2 billion in infrastructure that Opposition Leader Tony Abbott has promised to axe.
Premier Colin Barnett said the tax would disadvantage small miners, and hit the WA economy. He said small miners had told him they felt intimidated by the federal government for opposing the tax.

By Jessi Loerch Herald writer
I love sushi. If I could afford it, I would eat it every day. So I'm always happy to try out a new sushi place. When my friend suggested I give Sushi Spott in Mill Creek a try, I couldn't wait to go.
I've been a couple times since then, and I'm glad I found it.
Now, for the sake of full disclosure: I love sushi, but I am not an expert. I'm more of an enthusiastic devotee.
I know that there are experts who can expose the delicate flavors of raw fish the way a wine aficionado can tease out the flavors of a great wine. I am not one of those people.
I can tell you what I like, and what I don't, you'll have to decide the finer points for yourself.
So, back to Sushi Spott. It's an unassuming little restaurant in a strip mall. Inside, there's a small bar near the sushi chef and a selection of tables. The service is friendly.
On my most recent visit, the pleasantly chatty sushi chef was discussing the highlights of recent football games with customers.
On this trip, we started off ordering calamari ($6.95) as an appetizer. It was tasty, not chewy, not rubbery, and came with a delightful tangy sauce.
My husband was enthusiastic about the calamari. I enjoyed it as well, although I thought some of the pieces were overbreaded. I personally like the tiny octopus served with calamari, but some people find them creepy. So if you don't like those, don't order this.
We also ordered some nigiri sushi with tuna ($4.25). It had a generous slice of tuna. The fish was firm and pleasant tasting. My husband, a self-described rice snob, said they nailed the rice. It was seasoned but still sticky and held its form well.
Next up was a tuna roll ($4.45). The rolls had a good ratio of tuna to rice; I dislike it when rolls have too much rice. The tuna had a nice, luscious feel. It was rich and almost creamy.
We also tried the sunrise roll, which we couldn't resist because the menu touted it as their No. 1 roll. It contains crabmeat, tempura shrimp, tuna and seared salmon with eel sauce, special sauce and tobiko. So, it's a lot.
It's quite a marvel of construction. It had a lovely smoky, just mildly sweet flavor. It was insanely decadent and over the top. I enjoyed it, even if it was a bit messy — this was definitely the hardest roll to eat. Sushi purists would probably be appalled by this roll.
The caterpillar roll ($9.95) featured barbecued eel and cucumber, topped with avocado, tobiko and eel sauce. The eel was tasty, but the rest of the roll was unexciting. The avocado might as well have not been there. I couldn't taste it at all.
We split an order of seafood nabeyaki udon ($12.95), which is an udon noodle soup with seafood and tofu. The noodles were fantastic. The soup broth was a bit bland, but it was greatly improved by the condiments that are served on the side. They're a bit spicy, so start slow when you add them in.
The seafood was plentiful, but nothing special. It didn't have the vibrant flavor of really good, fresh seafood, but it wasn't bad, either. I would have preferred the soup with just the excellent noodles and tofu.
I'm glad we have Sushi Spott. If you like your sushi simple, this might not be the place for you. Or stick to the nigiri. But if you like rolls and don't mind some fancy creations, you'll enjoy it.
Sushi Spott

Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX) had dropped 11% following the news of a guidance cut triggered by the prevalent economic scenario. This drop makes the stock all the more attractive. The company has posted solid same store sales despite low consumer traffic. Profitability showed double digit growth despite higher coffee costs. The company's rapid expansion, especially in China and Asia Pacific, will continue to drive future growth. We are bullish on Starbucks based on its long term potential and solid fundamentals.
Business Overview:
Starbucks is a specialty coffee retailer that buys and roasts whole bean coffees, and then sells it through its own or licensed stores. Food items are also available at stores in addition to beverages. Packaged coffee is also sold through grocery and wholesale stores. The company has a presence in more than 50 countries, and has strong brand equity. Apart from the Starbucks brand, the company has Seattle's Best Coffee, Tazo Tea, and Starbucks VIA Ready Brew in its portfolio.
By product, beverages constituted 75% of 2011 revenues, followed by food at 19% and whole bean and soluble coffees at 4%. The rest comes in from coffee-related equipment like brewers. International growth has been the driving force behind revenues. The international segment grew from 19.6% as a percentage of total revenues in 2009 to 22.4% in 2011. The consumer products segment grew by 0.5 percentage points over the same period.
Q3 Results and Outlook:
Starbucks reported its fiscal Q3 results at the end of July. Profit and revenue exceeded the results from the same quarter last year, but missed analyst estimates. The company also revised its Q4 guidance downwards. The shares dropped 11% on the news, but have since recovered, and are 2.5% less than the pre-earnings release price. Below are more details:
- Net income was up 19% on a YoY basis. But the reported $0.43/share was less than the consensus EPS estimate of $0.45/share. The company also had expected earnings of $0.44-$0.45/share. The company cited economic worries, and the resultant lesser traffic in the U.S. and Europe.
- Sales were up 13% over last year, driven by China, the Americas and Asia Pacific sales. In 2011, the sales growth was 12.3% (YoY).
- Same store sales were up 6%, despite economic headwinds. This compares with 8% in Q3 last year.
- Rapid expansion continued with 231 new stores (net). For the full year, the company had guided to 1,000 new stores (net) in Q2 results. 1,200 are to be added in 2013. A focus on China and Asia Pacific is proving fruitful for the company with a 31% revenue jump. It is expected to become Starbuck's second largest market by 2014.
- Higher coffee prices affected the margin of the consumer product segment this quarter, although it witnessed a 45% revenue growth. The effect is expected to reduce from Q4 onwards. Coffee prices are down 15% since mid-July with a record crop in Brazil being harvested. Last year, SBUX had predicted a 5% EPS growth due to high coffee cost, but it has managed 18% and 19% in the last two quarters.
- SBUX has a 22% market share for premium single cup, which has positive chances of growth due to the upcoming launch of Starbuck's Single cup machine, along with a partnership with Green Mountain (NASDAQ:GMCR), which will entail the latter using Starbucks-branded packs for its coffee machines.
- Cash flow from operations is $1.61 billion (trailing twelve months). This can easily cover the $1 billion CAPEX expected next year, along with a dividend yield of 1.4%. The company has total debt of only $550 million.
- Q4 outlook was cut by 2 cents/share due to an unfavorable economic environment. Analysts expect almost the same (45 cents/share). Revenue will grow by 10%-12% as compared to the previous guidance of low teen growth.
- Analysts now expect EPS of $2.13/share for the next fiscal year, while the company guided on to EPS of $2.04-$2.14/share (15%-20% growth).
New Initiatives:
Previously, Starbucks customers could pay through a popular mobile app that involved loading money onto phones and then produced barcodes for scanning. Now Starbucks takes this feature further with the Pay with Square app to be released later this year. This app features an ability to pay through an account linked to a consumer's credit cards, without actual cards or signatures. Read this article for details regarding the whole process. Not only will it add to the convenience of the customer and improve efficiency in store operations, but it will also save Starbucks some credit card processing fee, which is great news for operating margin. Square CEO said, "They can offer lower processing fee than other networks. However, consumer adoption of the new service at some 7,000 stores will be the real test for this new app."
Starbucks announced an agreement with Coinstar (NASDAQ:CSTR) for its Seattle's Best Coffee brand. Some 500 kiosks (Rubi™ coffee kiosks) will be set up by the year end, which will add significantly to Starbucks' network of selling locations.
Valuation and Recommendation:
The company is trading 26% below its 52-week high value.
The forward P/E ratio for SBUX is 23x as compared to Time Horton (THI)'s 17x, Dunkin' Brands Group (NASDAQ:DNKN)'s 19x, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters 's 10x and Peet's Coffee & Tea (NASDAQ:PEET)'s 32x. Over the last 5 years, the P/E has ranged from its highest of 38x to its lowest of 21x.
Below is the valuation for Starbucks, based on the forward P/E of 23x, the last 5-year average P/E of 25x, and the last 10-year average P/E of 30x. At a 23x multiple, there is an upside of 17% at a price of $58. The 52-week high value is $62.
(2014 EPS is calculated by applying a long term growth rate of 19% on 2013 EPS)
The only thing that keeps us from being outright bullish on SBUX at the moment is the economic situation in the U.S. and Europe, since Starbucks coffee is counted among discretionary consumer products. Over the long term, we have confidence in Starbucks, as the economy recovers, and the company stands to benefit from its rapid expansion into fast growing Chinese and Asia Pacific markets. The company has sound financials with a long term earnings growth rate of 19%. The recent drop in share price due to the guidance cut makes it all the more attractive.

The study will collect two hundred pseudomonas and 20 acinetobacter baumanti consecutive bacterial isolates from microbiology. These isolates are collected as part of the patient's clinical care and are discarded once all clinical testing is complete. The honest broker will obtain these samples after all clinical testing is complete. All isolates will be deidentified. These isolates will be tested using standardized susceptibility methods for meropenem and imipenem. The activity of doripenem, a carbapenem currently being studied, and arbekacin an aminoglycoside, will also be tested. The honest broker will also collect limited patient data including underlying condition, presence of a solid organ transplant, ward location, and antibiotic history over the three months prior to organism isolation. For resistant isolates found, analytical and molecular techniques will be performed to determine the mechanisms of resistance and whether resistant isolates are coming from a single source/being transmitted from person to person.

Where do we start.
What a wonderful turnout for the Memorial Day Services here in Princeton. So many put their feet forward to help make all the festivities possible.
First, let us remember our veterans for what they have given us. Freedom isn't free. Thank you to all our military. As you sit there listening to all the names that have given of their time. As they say, all gave some. Some gave all.
Remembering as the names are being called off. Again, so many thank you's to the people that made all this possible from the school, Princeton radio station, Palmer School Bus (Tim), Princeton Union-Eagle, both Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts and their leaders, Community Ed for the programs.
The Honor Guards, our speakers, all the members of the American Legion, SAL and VFW and volunteers, for putting this all together and the food from Coborn's.
This is all a community effort. Please, "God Bless America." Again thank you to our wonderful community.
Commander Loren Papesh, VFW

Jennifer Garner Loves Butter
Star signs on for indie rom-com
Jennifer Garner loves Butter (steady now, no sniggering at the back). In fact, she loves Butter so much she made the movie.
Ish. Garner has signed on to star in Butter, a rom-com from Mandate, the company behind Juno. And we all know how that turned out.
Garner may also produce the movie, with Michael De Luca, while the likes of Gary Ross and Craig Gillespie are circling the project with a view to directing.
The plot revolves around a young orphan who becomes obsessed with the low-profile art of butter-sculpting (apparently, this does exist; Google at your peril), and eventually ends up in a competition, pitted against the wife of a retired butter-sculpting champion.
Expect simply tons and tons of quirk, then. Jason Micallef wrote the screenplay, his first. And we're guessing that Garner will play the wife, but there's no official word yet. More casting will surely follow.

the states and their departments of revenue, we are very eager to talk about [states'] participation in the future," Stevens said.
But there have been the usual stutters on the way to implementation.
"Obviously there are a lot of things you don't anticipate when you first launch a project," Stevens said.
Illinois' tax deadline is 6 p.m., but the federal government has an 8 p.m. cutoff. After a brief moment of head-scratching, planners decided to go with the later federal deadline.
"Illinois graciously acceded to our cutoff time, since it was in the benefit of the taxpayers to give them a few extra hours," Stevens said.
In terms of end users, the business community proved the most likely candidate. Though individuals file tax returns, employers, in effect, pay the majority of individual taxes through withholdings. Thus, planners knew they could take the biggest bite by targeting their efforts to the business community.
Planners say increased electronic processing will make taxpaying more efficient for the taxpayer and less expensive for state and federal agencies handling the money. Of equal importance is the fact that with an electronic payment, a taxpayer is that much more apt to getting it right.
"By paying your taxes electronically, you are 30 times less likely to make a mistake," Stevens said. "There is just so much that can go wrong with a piece of paper."

Temporary Māori Land Court Judge appointed
Hon Dr Pita Sharples
Minister of Maori Affairs
3 December 2012
Temporary Māori Land Court Judge appointed
Lawyer Michael Doogan has been appointed a temporary judge of the Māori Land Court for two years, Māori Affairs Minister Dr Pita Sharples announced today.
"Michael Doogan is an experienced lawyer, with extensive experience in the Waitangi Tribunal representing both the Crown and iwi claimants. His depth of knowledge will be of great value to the current bench of the Māori Land Court," said Dr Sharples.
"I congratulate Mr Doogan on his appointment, which commences on 21 January 2013," he said.
A temporary appointment is needed to assist with the workload of the Māori Land Court and the Waitangi Tribunal. Māori Land Court judges also act as Presiding Officers in the Tribunal.
The Māori Land Court plays an important role in the administration of Māori land in accordance with provisions in the Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993.
"Te Kooti Whenua Māori acts to assist the retention, use, development and control of Māori land as taonga tuku iho by Māori owners, whānau, hapū and descendants," said Dr Sharples.

I was slightly confused by Dalrymple's article- who will be on the receiving end of the inquisition- the job applicants or the employers? If it is the latter, then it is refreshing that a step is being made in the right direction in Britain to address the deep seated and insiduous racism which exists there and shows no sign of abating. It is not by accident that a well known British phrase is 'if your face fits'. This permeates every facet of the society-interviews for medical schools and universities, job interviews, doctors' surgeries- the level of treatment one receives, schools and even for promotion when one is fortunate enough to get the kind of job for which one is qualified. All these are subjective to the mentality of the person in authority and even some favoured ethnic minorities are not averse to such behaviour.
Travelling as I do between England and the US where, because of familial ties, i spend a good part of each year, I consider myself well placed to comment on the racism in both countries. While racism still exisits in the US, (witness the Don Imus affair and the reaction to his sacking, and the discomfort among some groups to Barack Obama's bid for the presidency) there is a determined effort by many well meaning, educated Americans to halt it. Also , in America people face up the fact that it exists, a first step to minimising it. In America, too, at official levels racism is actively discouraged, like in job and college applications. There are remedies to seek if one is actually a victim of racism. In Britain because there is constant denial as its existence at all, no such recourse exists. And so instead of lessening, it increases with every generation of British born people of African descent, particularly. Britain loses out as a result, with increasing numbers of their bright but disaffected, moving elsewhere. So, Mr Dalrymple, although you might see this move as an 'inquisition' ( a few years ago you would probably have called it political correctness gone mad) it might actually be beneficial to the country in the end.

UK Nissan
UK Nissan Repair Questions? Ask a Mechanic Online.
Hi again, I unplugged the airflow meter as you suggested, and found that the car ran unevenly this from what you say seems to indicate that the airflow meter is o k ? unfortunetely the engine management light is now staying on and as I am just about to take the car for its M O T ,
I beleive that this will cause it to fail ? Can you tell me how to get it to turn off ?
many thanks
Hello, Thanks for your reply, I have tried what you suggested, unfortunetely, the light has remained on, and every time I start the engine, a bright warning light comes on, indicating an engine fault,
have you any suggestions on this further problem and how to
irradicate it ?
Many thanks.
You can also try resetting the car by removing both battery leads and clamping them together for 10 mins as this will reset everything so if the light re-appears then the fault is still there.
Disconnect the battery cables and clamp them together for 10 mins. Remove both battery leads from the battery then use a nut and bolt or G-clamp to hold both battery lead terminals together.
This discharges any capacitors / memory within the ECU and around the car so ensures all memory settings are wiped clear - back to the factory default.
This will reset all the systems on the car and you may need the radio security code to get it going again, and ensure that the keys are in your hand when you re-connect the battery as the car may lock and turn on the alarm

An attractive young woman in a plaid shirt and Daisy Dukes waltzes into a small-town bar, dons a Medusa-like wig and heads to the stage. Then, to the throb of the Eurythmics' Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This), she immediately whips off her clothes. Suddenly, her naked body is bathed in golden light and the men in the bar begin to sob uncontrollably.
That's just the opening scene of The Flood Thereafter, the debut work of young Québécoise playwright Sarah Berthiaume. It's a declaration that what we're about to see in the next 80 minutes will be brash, sexy and mysterious, not to mention a little absurd.
Berthiaume's play, which boldly launches a new season in Canadian Stage's Berkeley Street Theatre, turns out to be an intriguing riff on themes from Greek mythology and fairy tales, set in a depressed St. Lawrence fishing village.
Even before that startling striptease, director Ker Wells and his designers let us know we're in the world of fantasy and dreams. A boat floats high above Yannik Larivée's gravel-ringed set, while a massive jumble of furniture forms a lopsided archway upstage and Bonnie Beecher's blue-green lighting evokes a sense of being underwater. The village appears to be simultaneously beside the river and beneath it.
The story at first is just as disorienting. It's as if a realistic drama about the plight of Quebec fishermen had somehow got tangled up with scenes from The Odyssey and Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid. Berthiaume's style, too, is a mash-up – coarse colloquial dialogue alternates with poetic narration.
Eventually, however, we realize we're watching a classic small-town tale. June (Courtney Ch'ng Lancaster), the stripper with the lachrymose touch, is the star attraction at the local bar, L'Emotion. It's the place where the village's unemployed men hang out – especially Homère (W. Joseph Matheson), an alcoholic ex-fisherman. Homère has a wife, the hairdresser Penelope (Maggie Huculak), who, true to her name, waits for him back at home. But he's obsessed with June. Who knows, he could even be her father – after all, she's the illegitimate child of Grace (Patricia Marceau), the former village slut.
Grace now runs the local diner and carries on a love/hate relationship with the bar's owner, Georges (Oliver Becker). She wants her daughter to quit stripping and help out as a waitress, but bored June is itching to leave this dead-end town. When a young stranger, Denis (Kevin MacDonald), is stranded there after his truck breaks down, she sees an opportunity to escape.
June is a modern-day siren who lures men with her body rather than her voice. Denis is Odysseus in a Habs ball cap, whose fidelity to his girlfriend is tested. Grace, who settled in the village 20 years earlier after being fished out of the river, describes herself as a mermaid still pining for Georges, her prince. And her arrival put the village under a curse.
Based just on this first play, it's obvious Berthiaume owes a debt to her Quebec elders, particularly Carole Fréchette and Daniel Danis. Flood is also clearly a precocious work that's impressive rather than moving. But Berthiaume's writing has wit and imagination, and her poetic passages are spare but vivid.
She finds an ideal interpreter in emerging director Wells, who was a co-founder of Winnipeg's determinedly surreal Primus Theatre. He brings that same sensibility to his staging, even if it lacks the physicality of Primus, or of the Macbeth he directed at this summer's Shakespeare in High Park.
The men in his cast are solid, but the women shine. Patricia Marceau's Grace – the village's "foreigner" – actually reminds us of the play's origins with her flavourful Québécois accent and smatterings of French. Ch'ng Lancaster's June has the insouciance of youth and beauty. It's ironic, though, that while she appears nude several times, the most seductive performance is given by a fully dressed Huculak as Penelope. Her purring ode to the male neck is the sexiest thing in the play. Maybe she's the real siren here.Report Typo/Error

As one of the tallest and most powerful Decepticons, he is often sent into the front lines, and is used as a troop transport for his smaller brethren. Blackout became a member of Starscream's team after Megatron left Cybertron in search of the Allspark. Blackout has never been impressed with Starscream's leadership, however, and has told him so on several occasions. The smaller Decepticon Scorpinok takes residence on Blackout's back, which provides the larger mechanoid much more firepower and a flanking option when needed. Personality Blackout, being one of the tallest and more powerful Decepticons, loves to fight. He is heavily armed, and a formidable close combat opponent, as such, he will destroy anything in his path, especially if it looks remotely like an Autobot. He is fiercely loyal to Megatron, and doesn't like that Starscream has been leading them for so long, openly calling out his commander on several occasions. Like all Decepticons, Blackout cares for no one, including the symbiotic Decepticon, Scorpinok, who can live on his back, and has left him wounded in battle on several occasions.

The Analog Joys Of Driving A Near-Perfect Old Honda Prelude Si
I've been in the throes of a bit of an existential crisis lately. Driving an old Honda Prelude Si helped with that.
I've been in the throes of a bit of an existential crisis lately. Driving an old Honda Prelude Si helped with that.
Hm, looks like this Prelude is running a little rich.
While the world tends to idealize Ayrton Senna nearly 20 years after his death, we shouldn't forget that he was a big racing star with big sponsorship deals. Sometimes those sponsors would just straight up give him a new family. And sometimes those sponsors would saddle him with an old Honda Prelude.
Honda's famed VTEC variable valve timing system, as John Davis noted way back in 1993, made the NSX faster and the Civic more economical. So what can it do when it kicks in on a sport coupe like the Prelude?
Welcome to Found Around The District, where we highlight fascinating cars we find around a city where people are too busy fighting through traffic and hunting for parking to drive anything interesting: Washington, D.C.
Welcome to Sunday Matinee, where we highlight classic car reviews or other longer videos I find on YouTube. Kick back and enjoy this blast from the past.
This DeLorean isn't fitted with an original PRV V6. Instead, it's packing a 500 cubic-inch Cadillac V8 behind the driver and a 2.0-liter Honda B20A in the nose. The seller's only including one engine with the sale, but which one?
"But, but-" you're probably saying about now, "The Prelude and Accord are different cars!" Not for our purposes! Subject to all the head-gasket maladies of their smaller Civic siblings, but without the nimble handling, the Prelude and Accord have been notable mostly for LeMons mediocrity so far.
When was the last time you saw a first-generation Honda Prelude on the street? Even in low-rust California, these things disappeared years ago, so finding a first-year example in my local self-service boneyard was a bit of a history lesson.
What a day of racing! No car held the lead for more than a couple of hours, and at one point the top eight cars were clustered within a two-lap span.
Remember the Black Metal V8olvo? Featuring an all-star cast of Spec Miata racers (a vast improvement over the not-so-great drivers- e.g., me- they had in the past) and great penalty-avoidance skills, they're leading the race!
Japanese cars made up nearly half the entries at the Gator-O-Rama, with 44 out of 95 vehicles coming from the Co-Prosperity Sphere. Miatas, Celicas, and RX-7s galore, of course, but that wasn't all.
We're always disappointed to see how many Hondas and Acuras blow head gaskets or otherwise puke their engines during a LeMons race, given Soichiro Honda's love of racing and all. This time, though, we didn't notice any Honda cylinder heads sitting around in the pits, waiting for team members to return from the parts…
It's not a surprise that many professional athletes, especially basketball centers, choose means of transportation a few orders of magnitude larger than a Lotus Elise. And anyone who has driven a gigantic truck knows that parking it anywhere near a restaurant is sometimes tough. In those situations, why not bum a ride…

The 654-hectare estate, which dates back to 1843 and includes a race track and stables, is one of the last of Mr Anderson's many lavish homes to be flogged off as the receivers of his family trust sell assets to repay $22 million in debt.
Prospective buyers have been traipsing through the eight-bedroom house, which is still occupied by the former developer, who has lived there for more than 30 years.
Bids on the property, which is expected to fetch between $50 million and $70 million, are due at the end of the month. Under the terms of the sale it must be sold vacant.
Mr Anderson is vigorously disputing the sale, arguing he has been a tenant at Fernhill for 25 years.
Mr Anderson will appear before a Consumer, Trader and Tenancy Tribunal in Penrith next Thursday in what he describes as a last-ditch attempt to rescue one of "Australia's most important properties from the barbarians who don't care about heritage". He accused Korda Mentha, the receiver of his family trust, of plundering the mansion and selling his artefacts and antiques last year for $12 million. He said they were worth $50 million.
"They came up here with the police and ripped out the chandeliers, rolled up the carpets, took the mirrors off the walls."
Korda Mentha executive Chris Powell said secured creditors have a registered charge on the property and his firm was going through a legal process to obtain "maximum value".
Mr Anderson said he would "go quietly" rather than endure a forced eviction, but added: "I'm not giving up. I never give up."
He said he has poured millions into preserving Fernhill.
He claimed the advertising campaign for the sale was misleading. Marketing material compiled by selling agents Colliers International states there is planning consideration for 200 homes. Mr Anderson said Penrith council opposes such large-scale development.

Rookie Symposium comes to the Browns facility for a Play 60 event
The NFL Rookie Symposium is an orientation for all drafted rookies based on the four principles of NFL History, Total Wellness, Experience and Professionalism.
The symposium includes presentations, videos, and workshops focused on these principles as well as other topics, including player health and safety, decision making, mental health, substance abuse and domestic violence prevention, non-discrimination, and maintaining positive relationships.
Rookies are provided with resources and best practices to assist them with their shared responsibility in successfully identifying off-the-field challenges and transitioning from college to the professional level.
As part of the 2013 Rookie Symposium, which introduces rookies to life in the NFL and their new positions as ambassadors of the League and their local communities, all rookies spent time with children from the Cleveland area at the Rookie Symposium PLAY 60 Youth Event, where they will lead the group in interactive games and teach them football skills and drills, followed by a healthy barbeque.
The event supports the NFL's commitment to the community and encourages kids to lead an active lifestyle with the NFL PLAY 60 program

GDI, which has been considering a possible listing on the Australian Securities Exchange, has also been in talks to buy Cromwell's $140 million office complex in Chatswood on Sydney's north shore.
GDI managing director
"I think the Brisbane leasing market has been oversold and I think it will improve."
Last year GDI introduced US-based Pramerica Real Estate Investors to a $134.5 million deal to buy the Government of Singapore Investment Corporation Brisbane office tower at 215 Adelaide Street. While GDI has yet to buy into the Brisbane market, it has launched an unlisted fund holding three Perth properties.
The Westlawn Property Trust, which owns 307 Queen on behalf of 1000 institutional and private investors, is managed by Clarence Property Group's
CBRE's Flint Davidson and Bruce Baker are marketing the 25-level office tower, which is in a prime position within the city's golden triangle of Queen and Edward streets.
The tower has a diverse range of tenants, with some exposure to resource tenants such as Gina Rinehart's Hancock Resources and its Queensland joint venture partner, Indian group GVK.
The Bank of China recently opened a flagship retail branch committing to a 10-year lease inside the building.
The office tower had a book value of $125 million as of December 2012 and received a grant from the Green Building Fund to upgrade its energy performance .

Quotes from Our Students
"My Memories from my WCL G Street law school days..."
Harley R. Climpson, 1940
-"Fond memories of excellent teachings of Dr. Mooers, Eduard Burroughs, David Bress, et. Al.
-Comradeship of classmates Charley Paul, Lacey Sharpe, Fred Turpen, Congressman Robert Secrest, Warren Moore, Harold Pearsall, Henry Stuckey, et. Al.
-Grabbing a sandwich & cold drink in the basement and "shooting the bull" with classmates prior to the beginning of evening classes."
Julian Caplan, 1954
"The intimacy in our G Street home. It was small and very dear. We won the 1953 Moot Court District Championship, and Dean Bookstaver declared a holiday; also gave me an 'A' in future interests as a reward for my work on moot court."
John F. McAuliffe, 1955
"Great classmates, great faculty; last-minute case reviews on the streetcar; pin-ball machine across the street; an occasional beer at 20th & Pennsylvania."
Mel Hirshman, 1955
"The wonderful faculty and the small classes; the fraternities; invitations to practitioners to speak to us; the friendship of those in the day & night classes; working on the Intramural Law Review; the Moot Court Programs and the success of my classmates in the profession."
Phil Leadbetter, 1956
"In domestic relations, when Professor Franchino said: "when the beautiful lady enters your office and consults you about a divorce - what's the first thing you do?" Big discussion. Answer - "Get a retainer!"
Joe Hairston, 1960
"Senator Byrd in the basement classroom."
Henry Webb, 1960
"Irritation by Dr. Mooers when someone interrupted his lecture (so much for the Socratic) with a question or comment and joy by Dean Myers when someone did!"
Ted Thomas, 1962
"Sitting next to Senator Robert Byrd in several of Dean Myers' & Ed Mooers' courses; the hot summer evening classes with no air conditioning; Mooers' favorite saying 'but me no buts!' "
Jerry Rosenblum, 1962
"At the beginning of my freshman year (1959), I was seated next to an 'older' student in one of my classes - contracts or constitutional law. We exchanged greetings, 'I'm Jerry Rosenblum' - 'Hi, I'm Bob Byrd - nice to know you.' For the next six weeks or so we continued to greet each other and compare class notes. Then, one day someone addressed my fellow classmate as 'Senator Byrd.' I was awestruck. That was the end of the 'Bob and Jerry show' on my part, as I then became more formal in my exchange. I have many other fond memories of my WCL days which include those of Professors Mooers and James, Dean Myers and Tony Morella and many fellow classmates."
Michael Sileo, 1962
"Dr. Mooers' inclusion of Marlene Dietrich in exemplary fact patterns."
"Having coffee at the Varsity Inn before the 9am class and the fact that Dean Myers allowed smoking in class which would be unheard of today. I also clearly remember his lectures, etc. in Torts, Criminal Law and Equity. He was among the best teachers I had anywhere."
Lew Franke, 1963
"Dr. Mooers and his lectures working in Marlene Dietrich when giving examples and illustrating principles of contract, laws and rules of procedure."
John Garrity, 1963
"Senator Byrd always being well prepared whenever called upon for a case in constitutional law with Dean Morella."
Dorothy Toth Beasley, 1964
-"Kindly, fatherly, patient Dean John Sherman Myers, who inspired us and also taught us trusts.
- Eating cheese and peanut butter crackers in the library while studying - that was lunch (with an apple) and crumbs are probably still in the books.
-My bike, which I rode from Georgetown, being taken from behind the law school!"
Brian Donnelly, 1965
" 'Muggegges' as the sainted Louis James pronounced mortgages"

The New School
Examining the Role of Media in the Human Experience
An analysis of mass media shows that only an estimated 1.6% of information we receive generates positive emotions. This imbalance misaligns us from our humanity and impacts our everyday decisions and responses.To build a culture of wholeness and sustainable future for all, it is crucial to examine the role of media: How do we bring forth ethical journalism based on truth and facts that are rooted in human meaning? How do we examine and challenge the pathologies and corporate and political interests that are reflected in media? What is the danger of an increased life online, including virtual reality and the use of personal electronic devices?To explore these questions and more, The New School, in conjunction with Our Humanity Matters, will host a conversation to examine our possibilities and potential as individuals and a global community and explore the specific impact of mass media on humanity – its challenges and opportunities.
This event will be streamed live on the day of the event at: http://new.livestream.com/TheNewSchool/media-humanity
Conversation participants:
Moderated by Tanja A. W. who holds a Mechanical Engineering
degree, an MA in Philosophy from the University of Ljubljana in
Slovenia, and an MA in Media Studies from the New School University in

No power at all is going to the console? So you don't get a red or orange light then? Well, the power cords are universal, as far as I am aware, so that shouldn't be the problem. What happened to your power cord? Maybe try using that just to see what happens?
I imagen you have checked the mains and everything that it is turned on?
Another thing could be the fuse in the power cable plug has blown, which would mean it just needs changing.

Competing on the same track they will be at six days later — the site of this year's Class A Region 5 Championship — the Eminence Warriors closed out the regular season at the Owen County All-Comers last Wednesday night.
The Warriors had four athletes who participated in five events with Shelby Armstrong leading the way, finishing third in the 100-meter dash in 12.43 seconds and adding a fifth place in the long jump with a leap of 16 feet, 2 inches.
The Henry County track team closed out the regular season with the North Central Kentucky Track Conference last Thursday night and the North Hardin Invitational on Saturday, then competed in the Region 3 Championship on Tuesday and are awaiting the Class 2A state meet next week — for those athletes who qualified.
It was a packed final few days of the regular season and start to the postseason. The state meet will be hosted by the University of Louisville next Thursday.
Austin Hunsaker told his Henry County baseball players a few weeks ago that they had two choices, and that the fate of the season came down to what they chose — either continue to play poorly, like they were at the time, or play baseball the way they're capable of to turn the ship around.
They chose the latter.
Finishing with seven first-place showings at the North Central Kentucky Conference Championships last Tuesday night on its home track, the Henry County squad finished third in the team standings in both the boys and girls results.
Cassey Fischer and Eric Phillips won two individual events apiece, while Destany Crawford, Darien Ingram and Jesse Mann added one each. Henry also finished with two second-place and six third-place outings.
In what was the third and final time the Eminence softball team played Williamstown this season, the visiting Warriors lost in the bottom of the seventh inning, 6-5, on Thursday night.
The Warriors beat Williamstown on April 5, then lost to the Demons in the first round of the 8th Region All "A" Classic tournament on April 15 and again on Thursday night.
The loss, which dropped the Warriors to 7-5 on the season, marked the second straight game that they have lost in the bottom of the seventh inning.
The Warriors just ran out of steam.
With the game scoreless entering the fifth inning, Trimble County went on a spurt to score the first five runs on the night, then added five more in its next bat to beat Eminence 10-0 on Thursday.
The Warriors held visiting Trimble scoreless through four innings before faltering down the stretch, allowing the 10 runs in just two innings, which ended the game after six with the mercy-run rule. It dropped the Warriors to 1-19 and gave Trimble its ninth win (9-7) on the season.
Now that the Kentucky Derby is over, and 20-1 Animal Kingdom surprised the field in becoming this year's winner, it's time to turn my attention from the four-legged racers to the two-legged ones.
The postseason for high school sports in Kentucky starts next week with regional track meets being held all across the state — the anticipated postseason for baseball and softball start the following week with district tournaments. I will admit that it's been one fast regular season, and the school year already nearing its end is shocking to me.
With less than two weeks remaining in the regular season, the Henry County softball team still has some important games to get in.
The Ladycats have three of those games on their radar this week — hosting Seneca for Senior Night on Wednesday, hosting Gallatin County on Thursday for the top seed in the 31st District tournament, and playing Walton-Verona (at Gallatin) this weekend for the North Central Kentucky Conference title.
The Henry County Wildcats beat Oldham County, 7-8, on Friday night in what was the only baseball game for Henry last week due to the weather.
The Wildcats entered this week at 7-8 overall and have 11 games remaining in the regular season before the 31st District tournament arrives later this month.
Henry coach Austin Hunsaker could not be reached for comments about the Oldham game, and no stats were available by press time. The game was at Oldham and lasted eight innings.
After playing one of its best games this season followed by one of its worse in a double header at Calvary Christian on Saturday, the Eminence softball team has now matched its total wins from last year and are an impressive 7-4 heading into this week.
The Warriors were near-perfect in game one on Saturday, getting solid pitching from Brenna Raisor, defense from her teammates and hitting by everyone at the plate in a 11-1 win. But in a complete reversal after a 20-minute break between games, they took a 4-3 loss in game two.

Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. — you might know them better has Foxconn, manufacturer of many things Apple — saw their net profit last year rise 13% on the back of increased sales of iPhone and iPad devices. Pegatron, another major Apple manufacturer that is the primary source of the iPhone 5c and iPad Mini, saw their earnings jump 22% in just the last quarter.
More →
The wait for a new iPhone 5S has shrunk from weeks to days since last month, thanks to increased production of the phone by Foxconn. Apple has asked Foxconn to shift production from the iPhone 5C to the iPhone 5S, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Foxconn, also known as Hon Hai, has posted record profits for its fourth quarter which amounted to NT$37 billion ($1.2 billion), a 5.6% increase, which surpassed analyst estimates of NT$35.9 billion. A majority of that increase can be contributed to Apple's expanding product lines and the cost involved in manufacturing, particularly when it comes to the iPhone 5.
Foxconn is planning an expansion of its American operations. Foxconn is known for manufacturing Apple products, along with those from companies such as Samsung and HTC, and this news comes after Apple CEO Tim Cook announced that one of Apple's Mac lines will be manufactured in the United States starting next year, with Apple investing $100 million in that operation.
iPhone supply shortages happen almost every year, but with the iPhone 5 they've been compounded by quality assurance concerns -- namely chips and scratches occurring at the factory before the devices are as much as opened by customers. A nameless Foxconn executive has some thoughts as to why.
The decision to go with aluminum in the latest iPhone 5 is now being blamed for the poor availability and shipping times. The iPhone 5 has been on sale for just over two weeks now and Apple is still quoting availability for new devices at the time of writing of 3-4 weeks. According to a report by Bloomberg, the reason for the slow availability is all down to quality control problems with the aluminum used in the banding around the iPhone 5 and the back cover.
Foxconn workers at its Zhengzhou factory supposedly held a strike yesterday involving three to four thousand iPhone 5 production line workers. The strike was apparently called because workers were unhappy with being asked to work during holidays and overly strict demands on product quality without necessary training; the news comes from a report by China Labor Watch.
The iPad mini rumors will not go away and today's story centers around where it will actually be manufactured. According to a "Chinese reliable source", the iPad mini will be produced solely in Brazil. It is thought that all of the tooling and design work has already been carried out in China.
Stop us if you've heard this before, but a quote is being attributed to Terry Gou, CEO of Apple manufacturing partner Hon Hai (parent company of Foxconn), this time claiming he said that consumers should hold out for the iPhone 5, as it will apparently put the Samsung Galaxy S III to shame.
