New Orleans voters will be asked this year to raise property taxes to provide more money to the struggling New Orleans Public Library system.
The City Council voted Thursday to put a 25-year, 2.5-mill tax before voters in a special election on May 2. The tax increase is expected to raise $8.25 million a year for library operations, according to a resolution adopted by the council.
The tax would be in addition to the 3.14 mills now dedicated to the library. That tax expires at the end of 2021.
The money would be used "for the purpose of adequately funding" the library system's continued operations.
The library request could be accompanied on the May 2 ballot by a proposal to increase special property taxes that help pay for police and fire protection.
The library system's executive director told the City Council in November that, without more money, the system will exhaust its reserves by the middle of 2016. Charles Brown said the system's financial situation was so dire that it might have to close one or more of the 14 branches it operates.
City Council members offered their full support of the tax increase Thursday, voting 7-0 to call the election and offering to help promote the request.
"A good library system is good crime prevention," Councilman Jason Williams told Library Board Chairman Bernard Charbonnet. "And closed doors on a library are closed minds, so we will be with you all the way on this."
The library needs $18 million a year to be properly funded, Brown told the council last year as he presented the operation's $12 million 2015 budget.
About a quarter of the library's funding for this year will come from the last bit of the surplus it accumulated when many of the city's libraries were closed after Hurricane Katrina. The balance, $9.2 million, will come from the existing millage. As has been the case in recent years, the library will not receive any money from the city's general fund in 2015.
Voters statewide and in Orleans Parish last year gave the city permission to put a request on a future ballot doubling the maximum authorized rate for special taxes for police and fire protection to 10 mills each. The two taxes are now capped at 5 mills each. They are not subject to the homestead exemption that covers all other municipal tax millages in New Orleans.
Increasing both public-safety taxes to 10 mills would generate an additional $31.6 million a year for the police and fire departments. The new revenue would have to be used for services that directly contribute to residents' safety.
The City Council has not voted on whether to include those measures on the May 2 ballot or, if so, how large an increase in each tax the city would seek.
The ballot will definitely include a second attempt by Orleans Parish Sheriff Marlin Gusman to allow his office to use money from an existing property tax to pay for expensive reforms at Orleans Parish Prison. Gusman's request, which voters rejected on Nov. 4, would not increase the current millage rate, but it would allow the sheriff to use the money in more ways.
The money is now dedicated solely to paying off bonds for construction projects. If the ballot measure is approved, the sheriff also could use the money to pay for costs associated with a federal consent decree mandating reforms in how the jail is managed. About $4.4 million a year could be redirected to cover such expenses if voters approve the measure.

The hosts are targeting a revenge victory to redeem their AFF Cup semi-final elimination to the Indonesians two years ago
Sabio, Gier, Cagara, de Murga
Guirado, Lucena, Mulders, J. Younghusband
P. Younghusband, Wolf
Ardiles, Wahyu Wiji, Abdulrahman, Nopendi
Bayaw, Mofu, Okto
Patrich, Bachdim, Bonai
The Philippines camp have stated they are looking for redemption after the 2010 AFF Cup's semi-final exit to Indonesia. Team coach Michael Weiss has continually improved the team by bringing in players with Filipino blood from all over the world.
Dennis Cagara and Jerry Lucena, who missed the exhibition match against Malaysia on Friday, will join up with the Azkals. The Younghusband brothers, Philip and James, as well as first-choice goalkeeper Neil Etheridge, will also be back with the squad.
Meanwhile for Indonesia, coach Nil Maizar named a 20-man squad to face the host. The Former Semen Padang trainer is convinced that his team will be able to repeat the good performance that they showed against Italian giants Inter on May 27.
Titus Bonai, and Patrich Wanggai will be in the starting line-up, and will be supported by the Dutch-born playmaker Irfan Bachim.
- In the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup in Nepal, Philippines successfully claimed a third-place finish for the first time in their history.
- Phil Younghusband is the Azkals top marksman, collecting 24 goals in 34 appearances since 2006.
- Indonesia have not won in their past five international matches, the last defeat was a 10-0 loss against Bahrain in the World Cup qualifier.
- The visitors recorded their biggest win over Philippines in 2002, a 13-1 triumph at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium.
- The last time these two nations met was during the two-legged 2010 AFF Cup in Jakarta, with Indonesia winning 1-0 on aggregate.

[Marston comes upon a disheveled man graverobbing.]
Marston: Excuse me, are you Seth?
Seth: Who are you?
Marston: I'm a friend of Mr. West Dickens. My name's Marston. John Marston.
Seth: Goodbye, Mr John Marston. It's been a great pleasure.
Marston: I need your help, Seth. 'We' need your help. Me and Mr. West Dickens.
Seth: Let me be frank for one second, partner. I hate people. It was people who got me in this mess in the first place.
Marston: What mess?
Seth: Look at me! Look. Scrambling around, looking for maps, half insane. I ain't washed in 6 months, my hair's fallin' out, my mind's going.
Marston: What happened?
Seth: What happened? My partner! He stole half my map! I never would have done that to him. Never. Look at me.
Marston: Who did this to you?
Seth: My partner. My boy. My man. Moses Forth. I don't have the facility to tell you what I would have done for that man, and what I would do to him now.
Marston: Why?
Seth: Because he stole half my goddamn map.
Marston: And what map's that then?
Seth: The map, partner. The map that tells where it is.
Marston: Where what is, friend?
Seth: I ain't telling you that. I ain't. Don't make me tell, partner. It's mine. It's mine. All mine!
Marston: Sure. And where's this Moses now?
Seth: He's at Benedict Point. The law got him for exhuming. Some people...they feel differently. Not Moses. Him, me, we the same. The self same.
Marston: Well, come on, Seth. Let's go see Moses, get you your map back. Then, maybe you'll help me.
Seth: Alright, Partner. Let's go.
[They set out on the trail.]
Marston: How can you sink that low? Diggin' up graves and lootin' from the dead.
Seth: Hypocrites, the whole damn lotta you! Are you sayin' it's better to steal from the livin'? They're corpses. They don't care none.
Marston: These people been laid to rest.
Seth: You don't know nothin'. I talk to 'em, long after they been forgotten by every other fella. I tell 'em it's alright to be scared and alone. I embrace 'em when they're stinkin' and rotten.
Marston: I met some sick bastards in my time, Seth, but you, you're special.
Seth: Folk is cold and heartless all their lives. To me, they get warmer when they're actually cold and heartless. Surely that makes sense, to even you?
Marston: Not exactly it don't.
Seth: Are we really livin' anyway? Do you exist outside my mind? Maybe we're both havin' the same dream and when we wake up we'll die?
Marston: I certainly seem to be in some kind of nightmare.
Seth: Have you looked in the cave, Seth? No, it's very dark.
Marston: What did you say?
Seth: I-I didn't say nothin'.
Marston: I just heard you say somethin'.
Seth: You're a crazy man. You should get that head looked at.
Marston: Seth, I need someone who can get a wagon inside Fort Mercer . I was told you could help me but I'm not sure you even know what day it is.
Seth: I don't. I can't even tell you what year it is.
Marston: I knew this was a waste of time.
Seth: So, you wanna go after Bill Williamson, do you?
Marston: You know Bill?
Seth: Oh yes. I met Williamson and Deek and all them boys. Sometimes they call me on when they got some special job needs doin'. I got a reputation as a man who do things most other fellas won't.
Marston: Now, that I can believe.
Seth: I reckon you can get in there no bother. Assumin' you help me find this map, that is.
Marston: What's so important about this map?
Seth: Nothin' much. Just unimaginable riches and such like. A spark of hope that lit a ragin' fire I can't put out.
Marston: I thought as much. Another treasure hunter losin' everything in the search for nothin'.
Seth: Oh, I've lost it all partner. My wife, my children, my business. Good riddance to them all. I don't eat, I don't sleep, I don't wash, and I don't care.
Marston: I know, I can smell you from here.
Seth: Used to be about the money, but now...I don't know who I am no more.
[They arrive at Benedict Point .]
Seth: Alright, this is it. Let's stop here a moment and come up with a plan. As far as I know, Moses is bein' held in that shack. There's a couple deputies keepin' guard outside. Can you distract 'em while I sneak in for a quick parlay with that son-of-a-bitch?
Marston: I'm sure I can think of somethin'.
Seth: Lead 'em away from the shack and out of sight. Somewhere out past that hill.
[John steals the horse and rides off.]
Sheriff Bennton Mannig : What the hell you doin'?
Sheriff Mel Thaxton : Hell shall rain on you!
[John returns to Seth.]
Seth: Good job getting rid of them clowns. Now keep an eye out in case they come back. Moses? Oh...Moses? You got a visitor.
Moses: Oh my god. Seth? They arrested me. It weren't my fault.
[Moses bursts through the door and tries to take off.]
Moses: Get the hell away from me!
Seth: Get that slippery bastard! I need him alive, though.
[Marston retrieves the moron.]
Seth: Moses, you son of a bitch! Where's my damn map?
Moses: Damn you, Seth. Damn you, Seth. You've always been a twistly little freak. I ain't telling you shit!
Seth: Then I'm gonna cut you up piece by piece, 'til ya find your tongue.
Marston: Friend, this man's gone crazy in the sun. I suggest you take my advice and start talking.
Seth: Shut up, Marston, I wanna cut into a bonafide man's flesh! Ain't never cut into a live one before.
[Seth gets his knife ready.]
Moses: Odd Fellow's Rest ! It's in Oddfellow's Rest! Now get away from me once and for all!
Seth: Well ain't that a damn shame. I was starting to enjoy myself. I think you've gone and pissed yourself, Moses. Those deputies went and put a bounty on your head. Best we clear it now; don't need the law on our backs. I don't have no money but, I got me a pardon letter. Here, take it. You earned it for helpin' me with Moses. Come on, we can pay it off in the telegraph office.
[They visit the office and return to their horses.]
Seth: So, mister, thanks for your help.
Marston: Don't worry yourself with thanks, Seth. Just help me when I come asking.
Seth: No problem, mister.

Anonymous Review
I needed a small, contemporary, and comfortable chair for my bedroom. It's difficult to put my shoes and socks on while sitting on my high bed. So browsing overstock's selection of designer chairs I found the perfect solution. The Tovano Red Leather Arm Chair arrived in one large box. Putting it together required only to screw the four wooden legs into the bottom of the chair which was simple and quick! Turning it upright I could do myself and I was ready to enjoy the comfort and beauty of this chair. Additionally, it adds color and dimension to any room and I have been getting compliments on it from friends and family ever since it arrived. Great addition to any home, apartment, or summer beach house or cabin. I recommend it highly.

When on a visit in the area we went to Casey's for their Thanksgiving brunch. (told about it by a local person).
Have to say the service was good. Good variety of food which was warm, constantly refreshed and tasty. Very good soup, eggs, cooked ham, etc. Several varieties of salads and cheese perogies are examples of what was served.
The Basa fish was excellent, would not mind seeing it as a regular part of their menu. Coffee was brought to the table quickly and regularly. Price was moderate. Recommend eating there.

How To Makeup Jack Sparrows Tribal Chief Eyelids
Jack Sparrow's Tribal Scene Eyelid Makeup
Who can forget that sorta creepy but very cool tribal Eyeball makeup Captain Jack wore as the king/sacrifice in waiting in Pirates 2?
This is a fun twist on the typical Jack Sparrow costume this year. Grab an artsy friend to help you with the paint on your eyelid (unless you were born part owl and can keep one eye COMPLETELY open and the other closed).
For this particular look, your best bet is probably to start with real greasepaint instead of regular eye makeup. The color will be more intense and a little easier to control. A wheel with the primary colors (red, yellow, blue) and black and white will be all you need we'll mix up the rest.
How To Create Jack Sparrow Tribal Chief Eyelids
Start out by patting a concealer or eye shadow base all over the eyelid, inner corners, and even in a light semi-circle underneath. As the paints are a bit thicker, that foundation is even more important to keep the finished look from getting too smeary.
Let's start out easy so you can get the hang of working with the consistency of this makeup. Mix blue and yellow to make as olive a green as you can.
Start out with very small amounts and build, because you won't need much.
With that green, use your finger and draw a line all down the bridge of your nose, starting right at the top.
Between your eyebrows and above that green line, paint two narrow vertical lines in black. From the top of the green line, draw a curved black line curving under each eye and winging up into almost a half-circle.
IIn even increments down the bridge of the nose, paint down-curved black lines about midway onto the cheek. Where the line ends, mid-cheek, draw an oval-esque eyeball shape. There will be three on each side, plus one on each of your eyelids, but we¹ll save those for last.
From there, you can clean your brush and fill in those ovals in white.
Clean that brush again, and fill in the iris of each eye in blue. Leave a tiny circle of white in the upper right corner for a twinkle in each eye, just to be completely authentic.
The last step before you turn your buddy loose to repeat the eyeball steps is to once again clean your brush, and paint red crisscrosses all around the outside of the eyeballs, framing the face. Go only as high as just beneath your real eyes.
And finally, entrust your pal, who has no doubt been watching your every clever move, to repeat those last few steps with the black ovals filled with white and irises in blue on your very own eyelids for a decidedly spooky finish.
As always, be sure to dust some colorless or translucent powder over the final look, including your eyelids. This will keep your extra sets of eyes looking creepy all night.
We're off to make Captain Jack proud!

Vintage 80s Couture Ball Gown - Elizabethan Style
Brand Poppy's Vintage Clothing
This is a vintage 1980s era two piece ensemble or ball gown made by Montreal couturier Serge et Real
Label: Serge et Real Montreal
It consists of a skirt and top that have a fairy tale princess-like appearance, very Victorian in conception, and very appropriate for wear to a ball or formal function. The skirt and sleeves of the top are made of a fine silk that is woven in a paisley pattern. The body of the top is made of quilted purple taffeta. The shoulders are very padded, typical of 80s fashion and the sleeves are made in a gigot/leg of mutton style, very wide at the top and narrow at the cuff. It does up with 19 matching covered buttons down the front. The skirt is cut full with a lot of gathering at the waist band. It has a purple taffeta underskirt and yellow tulle stiffening
Color: Gold yellow and purple with touches of red and green in the weave
Material: Silk and taffeta - highest quality fabrics were used in making this dress.
Sizing: No size is indicated, but this should fit a medium size. Please note the following measurements for fit:
Shoulders: 16 1/2" across seam-to-seam
Sleeves: 30" from shoulder seam, following the contour of the sleeve
Sleeve Inseam: 16" long
Bust: 36"/38" around, taken under the arms
Waist: 27"
Overall length: 20"
Waist: 26" around
Hips: Full
Length: 44"
It's in excellent condition with no wear, tear, stains or odors. This looks like it saw little use and was very well kept over the years.
(Serge Senecal and Real Bastien) in a style that appears to take inspiration from Elizabethan fashion. Serge et Real had been in business since 1972, now retired. They had dressed Canadian high society including the wife of a former Canadian prime minister, a former Canadian governor general, Quebec entertainers and wives of captains of industry. Both apprenticed at Parisian design houses during the 1960s and decided to open a couture business in Montreal at a time when pret a porter was cutting deeply into couture. They worked in Palm Beach and New York as well as out of their Westmount atelier, but recently retired. Their creations could cost many thousands of dollars and this was probably a very expensive dress.
This is a super quality ensemble - Serge and Real produces only couture, so this is a hand made ensemble with a lot of attention to detail. This was a very expensive piece to buy new, probably costing many thousands of dollars. The fabric is of exceptional quality.....great piece for a ball or formal function.

The plot for this all hinges on the drinking of a potion that puts people to sleep, and on awakening 'falling in love with the first person they see' with the expected complications. The cure for this is for the protagonist (John Wellington Wells) to kill himself, and all returns to normal. Gilbert's 'magic lozenge' plot for the first time. The opera opens with the villagers (the chorus) celebrating the fact that 'squire' Sir Marmaduke's son, Alexis, an officer in the Grenadier Guards is to be officially betrothed to Aline, Lady Sangazure's daughter. Lady Sangazure is the first in a long line of middle-aged to elderly contraltos that Gilbert was so fond of. Meanwhile, Mrs Partlet (she is would you believe, the pew opener...) and her daughter Constance appear. Constance confesses that she is in love with Dr Daly, the vicar who promptly enters although not seeing her. Dr Daly (for it is he) then contemplates the passing of the years after which Mrs Partlet puts out a few feelers on Constance's part. However the vicar tells her that his amorous days are over, and that he is resigned to bachelorhood. Next come on Sir Marmaduke and Alexis. Sir M. confesses that 50 (!) years ago he was in love with Lady Sangazure, and she with him. The girls chorus enter with Aline to be immediately welcomed by Lady S., and rapturously by Alexis who retires upstage with her. Alexis and Aline are so happy with each other that Alexis insists that everybody should share his happiness, and to that end he has obtained a 'love-philtre' from J.W.Wells & Co., family Sorcerers. Guess who is nearby to come on and sing a patter song. At Alexis' bidding, Aline fetches a large teapot into which Mr Wells puts the philtre. All the villagers drink this and fall asleep. End of Act One.
Act Two opens with villagers waking up and falling in love with the first person (of the opposite sex of course) that they see. Constance with the elderly notary who officiated at the betrothal ceremony of Alexis and Aline, Sir M. with Mrs Partlet, and Lady S with J.W.Wells. Now JWW is getting worried about the wholesale effects his drug has had. Meanwhile Alexis has suggested to Aline that they drink the drug, and she initially refuses, but on changing her mind, the first person she sees is Dr Daly. Dr Daly realises that she is spoken for, so he offers to leave the country at once, since he does not wish to be a rival. This is not required of him, since JWW appears and says that the spell can only be broken if either he or Alexis yield up their life. No competition and JWW descends through a trapdoor in a burst of red fire. Everything is back to normal now, and the opera ends on a happy note.
Set in a sort of village fete in Mummerset - striped tents, the local squire and the vicar with the teapot. During the original production run, the ending of Act one and the start of Act two were rewritten. The current version is better. Only one set can be an advantage. No costume changes for the chorus. The 1977 show was the one when the BBC came and filmed for a local series on 'Make mine music', for 'Look North'. We staged this with a conventional set and costume.A tape of it still exists somewhere.
