SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 7 (UPI) -- On the eve of his first Games as International Olympic Committee president, Jacques Rogge Thursday expressed confidence in security measures here, even as police detonated a suspicious package just blocks from the media center.
Rogge described precautions as "the highest possible level," saying they had been reviewed by both the Salt Lake Organizing Committee and the IOC's own experts.
Earlier Thursday, however, police destroyed a bag filled with electrical equipment that apparently was left intentionally in a parking garage. Authorities stressed, however, that it was not an explosive device.
"We are pleased by what the American authorities have put in place," Rogge said at his pre-Olympic news conference.
Elected last July to succeed the controversial Juan Antonio Samaranch, Rogge addressed a wide range of topics -- from concerns over doping to the inability of the Dutch team to find someone to carry the flag at Friday night's opening ceremony.
After the IOC abandoned efforts to keep the World Trade Center flag out of the Opening Ceremony, Rogge said the Salt Lake City Games will have "special significance" in the wake of the terrorist attacks.
"This will send a strong signal that people can come together from different countries, different cultures, different religions. It's a strong signal the world has been waiting for," he said.
The IOC, Rogge said, will take steps to close a loophole that allowed American bobsledder Pavle Jovanovic to participate in the Games despite testing positive for an anabolic steroid.
"The message to athletes is clear. We will protect clean athletes, we will kick out the cheats," he said. "We will amend the charter and have a rule allowing us to refuse entries.
"We respect the independence of international federations. However, when it comes to the Olympics, we have our own rules."
Rogge also defended the IOC's decision to refuse to allow a lone representative from Afghanistan to march in the Opening Ceremony as a symbol of that nation's return to the international community.
"It would be useless to start investing in sport in a country where security is not totally assured," he said, noting Afghanistan has never sent an athlete to the Winter Olympics. "We only want athletes to participate when they are well-trained and well-prepared."
In the wake of the Salt Lake City Olympic bribery scandal, the IOC is moving ahead with plans to adopt new conflict-of-interest rules. And a committee continues to study ways to scale down the Games. Rogge noted that 195,000 people received Olympic accreditation for the Sydney Summer Olympics, up from 130,000 in Barcelona in 1992.
"It's a whole army," he said. "Every athlete is surrounded by 80 people wearing plastic cards."
The briefing ended on a lighter note after Rogge was asked about the inability of the Netherlands to find a flag bearer.
"I find it very sorry that athletes don't want to participate in the opening ceremony," he said. "I believe every American athlete would give his life to carry the American flag," he said. "It's very sad, a fundamental mistake. I'm saying it's wrong and they'll regret it later on, when they're mature."
Rogge reiterated plans to live in the Olympic Village during the Games and eat with the athletes, joking he would party only with those who have something to celebrate.

KOKOMO, Ind., March 21 (UPI) -- A former teacher in Indiana is facing charges after a gun he allegedly hid in the ceiling of a class room fell to the floor during a class, officials said.
Christopher Johnson, 52, of Frankfort, Ind., on Tuesday was charged with possessing a firearm on school property and criminal recklessness for the incident, the Kokomo (Ind.) Tribune reported.
Johnson, a former teacher at the Kokomo Area Career Center, allegedly hid a loaded handgun in a classroom at the center.
Auto tech students discovered the gun while playing with a tape measure, which hit the ceiling, sending the loaded 9mm Beretta and its holster to the floor.
Johnson turned himself in at the Howard County Criminal Justice Center Tuesday morning. He has since posted $7,500 bond and has been released.
Kokomo police notified Kokomo-Center officials that Johnson, who last taught at the school in May 2012, placed the gun in the ceiling.
"I extend special gratitude to the city of Kokomo and its police department for working diligently to bring forth information, solutions, and appropriate actions related to this case," Jeff Hauswauld, superintendent of Kokomo-Center schools, said in a news release.
"It is rather unfortunate that this disconcerting situation was created by the irresponsible acts of one individual. This atypical behavior certainly does not reflect the professionalism displayed daily by the hardworking teachers and staff."

For the past two years, the biggest buzzword in the world of science has been "Large Hadron Collider." If anybody wanted to sound smart, they simply spoke the name, and presto: your perceived intelligence doubled. Of course, this illusion could be easily counteracted when asked about the nature, purpose, or any general information regarding about the Large Hadron Collider. Simply put, it's like a game of Taboo. The purple side of the card reads "Large Hadron Collider," and any mention of the words "Big Bang Machine," "Mountains in Switzerland," "Destroy the Earth," "Tiny Particles," or "Giant Metal Racetrack" will result in a loud buzzer blaring in your ear.
It was only a matter of time before The Large Hadron Collider was mentioned on The Big Bang Theory. As particle physicists, Leonard and Sheldon work in the exact field in which the Large Hadron Collider is applicable. Over lunch, Leonard announces the university has selected him to attend a conference in Switzerland, where he will visit the Large Hadron Collider. As a bonus, he gets to bring a guest of his choosing. Upon revelation that the conference will be on February 14th, both Raj and Howard understand Leonard's intent to invite girlfriend Penny for a romantic vacation. Sheldon, oblivious as always, disregards the possibility and assumes he will be attending instead.
At home, Leonard tries to break the bad news to Sheldon. Sheldon, eagerly packing (and trying to decide which hat best says "Après-Supercollider,") is offended by the notion Leonard would invite Penny over him. Leonard focuses on the potential of going sightseeing, skiing, and spending a romantic Valentine's Day evening by the fire under the shadow of the snow-capped Alps. The subatomic particle research is simply a footnote. But for Sheldon, the potential to further a romantic entanglement is not a viable excuse; visiting the Large Hadron Collider has been a dream of Sheldon's since he was nine. But having a sexy girlfriend has been a dream of Leonard's since he was six.
Trying to be coy with the prospect of a European vacation, Leonard presents Penny with a tray of Swiss Miss cocoa, Swiss chocolate, and Swiss cheese sliced with a Swiss army knife. Penny, not recognizing the theme, instead mocks Leonard's poor culinary selections, citing his inability to properly process dairy. This joke marks the third week in a row someone has referenced the way Leonard's lactose intolerance results in terrible gas. Along with Raj and Howard's ambiguous relationship, the flatus jokes need to be retired, the sooner the better.
Desperate to visit Switzerland, Sheldon pulls no punches. Breaking out the much maligned roommate-agreement pact, Sheldon cites Leonard's promise to invite Sheldon if the opportunity to visit the Large Hadron Collider ever presented itself. Leonard claims the roommate-agreement pact is a void document, claiming any contract also featuring a zombie contingency plan has no real-word validity.
Failing along the legal route, Sheldon attempts the silent treatment, shunning Leonard except for occasional derogatory comments regarding Leonard's backsliding double-cross. For example, Sheldon plays a word game where he ranks Leonard akin to Benedict Arnold, Judas, and Rupert Murdoch, the man who canceled Firefly. Later, Sheldon presents Leonard with 30 pieces of Silverware.
The following morning, Sheldon greets Leonard with breakfast in bed. Offering up delights such as pancakes in the shape of hobbits, scones containing a pound of Crisco and the DVD set of Babylon 5′s final season, Sheldon attempts an apology. Sheldon confesses his actions have been petty, and his friendship with Leonard is more than a list of written agreements. Leonard accepts Sheldon's apology, but still intends to invite Penny to Switzerland. Realizing his breakfast/apology has had no desired effect, Sheldon retracts his meal/peace offering, claiming "No Frodo for you."
Unswayed, Sheldon attempts to approach things from a different angle. Putting together a Powerpoint presentation on why a Physicist should visit the Large Hadron Collider, not a waitress from The Cheesecake Factory, Sheldon attempts to convince Penny to refuse Leonard's invitation. Despite his best efforts, Penny refuses to budge. Realizing all is lost, Sheldon actually displays human emotion and sadly admits defeat. Feeling sorry for the depressed man-child, Penny agrees to talk to Leonard and try to work out a compromise. Ecstatic, Sheldon momentarily breaks his standard protocol of never making contact with other people, and embraces Penny in a bear hug. The terror expressed in Penny's eyes will not soon be forgotten. Despite promises made, Leonard is furious Sheldon went behind his back, guilting Penny into letting Sheldon attend Switzerland in her place. Authoritatively, Leonard declares, based on Sheldon's actions the past few days, he would rather visit the Large Hadron Collider alone than invite Sheldon.
Spending the night together before their transatlantic flight, Leonard and Penny fantasize about what Switzerland will be like. The thoughts of shushing down Alps interspersed with hot cocoa and cider are brought to a grinding halt after Penny breaks out in a serious sneezing fit, eventually segueing into a vomiting marathon. Plagued with the flu, Penny knows there is no way she'll be able to fly to Switzerland by morning. Realizing the opportunity to make good with Sheldon, Leonard offers the now-vacant invitation his way. Although eager to accept, Sheldon is also wracked with illness, and can barely stand.
As Leonard departs for Europe, Sheldon and Penny are left alone to wallow in sickness together. Penny tries her hardest to tolerate her friend under quarantine, but Sheldon cannot fathom how he could possibly have caught the flu. Suddenly, his memory cycles back to the previous day: Sheldon broke his personal rule against touching people when he hugged Penny. It's no coincidence that he contracted the exact same affliction as her. As Sheldon arrives at this conclusion, Penny smugly glares from behind her bowl of condensed chicken and stars soup.
Finally, Leonard arrives at his spacious Swiss hotel suite. Adorned with roses, chocolates and champagne, Leonard begrudgingly invites his guest inside: Raj. After spending the entirety of the episode in the background, casually mentioning to deaf ears how he has no plans for Valentine's Day, Raj's sad sack attitude pays off in abundance. Homosexual undertones aside, Raj is grateful to spend Valentine's Day with somebody. Anybody. Leonard sighs in defeat as Raj jumps on the queen-sized bed.
A lot of people claim it's a tragedy to spend Valentine's Day alone. However, if the alternatives include spending the day with the flu, or an uncomfortably giddy Indian coworker, isolation doesn't sound so bad.

On the run for years, large-scale marijuana dealer, Moises Gamboa was arrested early Friday morning. Gamboa, 48, of Huntington, was arrested in Rocky Point, Mexico by Mexican authorities with cooperation from American agencies. Gamboa was indicted by a federal grand jury in 2010 for selling more than 1,000 kilograms of marijuana in the Huntington area. Gamboa left the country before his indictment. "Mr. Gamboa allegedly sold thousands of pounds of marijuana and collected millions of dollars in ill-gotten gains as a member of a notorious drug trafficking organization," says U.S. Attorney Booth Goodwin. Goodwin went on to thank the U.S. Marshals Service for helping put Gamboa "where he belongs," in a press release Friday morning. Gamboa will face extradition proceedings in Mexico, and will likely be returned to the Huntington area to face charges, according to Goodwin.

Dual Factor Spreadsheet Revised
Hey, I improved the old D.F. spreadsheet from before. This new one still automatically factors in 20% less squats for your second workout. The difference is an extra intensity week (like what I'm currently doing) as well as an extra week at the bottom for some specialty work after the dual factor training. I chose some high rep work to help heal those joints for another heavy 5'er all over again. I guess you could say it's just like the second week of HST's 15 rep block...By second week I mean still heavy. Change what you like. For the DFHT deload week, I added o/u pullups...That just stands for overhand for 2 sets, underhand for 2 sets.
awsome...i got a bit off track with my 5x5 but im going to start it up again asap....kind of pissed that i have to start at the begining again though

Fed-Subsidized 'Green' Light Bulb Hits Market — Cost: $50
By Peter Whoriskey, Published: March 8
Energy Secretary Steven Chu said the prize would spur industry to offer the costly bulbs, known as LEDs, at prices "affordable for American families." There was also a "Buy America" component. Portions of the bulb would have to be made in the United States.
Now the winning bulb is on the market.
The price is $50.
Retailers said the bulb, made by Philips, is likely to be too pricey to have broad appeal. Similar LED bulbs are less than half the cost.
"I don't want to say it's exorbitant, but if a customer is only looking at the price, they could come to that conclusion," said Brad Paulsen, merchant for the light-bulb category at Home Depot, the largest U.S. seller of light bulbs. "This is a Cadillac product, and that's why you have a premium on it."
How the expensive bulb won a $10 million government prize meant to foster energy-efficient affordability is one of the curiosities that arise as the country undergoes a massive, mandated turnover from traditional incandescent lamps to more energy-
efficient ones.
Energy legislation signed by President George W. Bush in 2007 introduced a ban on inefficient incandescent light bulbs, covering traditional 100-watt bulbs this year. Sales of traditional 75-watt incandescents will be prohibited next year, and 60-watt incandescents will go after that.

Athens-Clarke police officers arrested a man on drug charges while responding to a shooting at the Park on West Broad apartments, 2360 W. Broad St., about midnight Saturday, according to a report.
An officer saw a white Ford Explorer leaving from the direction of the shooting and followed the car. The car parked pulled into a parking spot, and Benjamin Franklin Patmon, 25, of Monroe got out of the car and started to walk away, police said.
Officers approached Patmon, and he stuffed an entire sandwich bag full of marijuana into his mouth. His cheeks puffed out and he could not talk, police said.
Patmon spat out the marijuana, and officers found two more sandwich bags filled with marijuana in his pants pockets and 10 corner bags filled with marijuana hidden in his car, according to the report.
Police charged Patmon with possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute and tampering with evidence, according to the report.

5 Things to Do Before You Start Earning Your Online Degree
Posted Tuesday, Mar 5, 2013 by
So you've decided to improve your career prospects by earning a college degree. And because you can't afford to leave your current job to go to back to school, you've decided to earn your degree online. These are all excellent decisions that show you're ambitious, practical, responsible and far thinking.
But before you even attend your first online class, there are five things you need to do to make sure your online education experience is as successful and rewarding as you want it to be. They are:
1. Get your schedule and budget your weekly hours accordingly. Earning a degree online is going to seriously cut into what used to be your "free time," so make sure to schedule sufficient hours for your classes, and for yourself. Get your class schedule, determine when you need to attend your online lectures, participate in online study groups, take tests, etc., and then block these hours out on a weekly calendar. Make sure you also leave time for family, friends and fun. Understand that going to an online college or university requires great personal discipline and time management. Also understand it's a limited-time commitment that can yield huge dividends when you're done.
2. Get a "buy in" from your family and employer. If you have a family, make sure they understand your needs and are willing to sacrifice and support you as needed. Likewise, if you have a job, your employer/manager needs to know you are working to improve yourself and need to stick to a strict after-hours schedule to do so. The others in your life are more likely to "buy into" your plans if you explain to them how earning your associate or bachelor's degree is likely to ultimately benefit them.
3. Prepare a workspace. You will need a designated study area where you will attend your online classes, read class material, participate in online study groups, etc. Ideally, this should be a private area of your home where you can work for a few hours at a time, uninterrupted. If all you have available is a common area like a living room or kitchen table, make sure to schedule your study sessions during times when you won't interfere with other household activities.
4. Make sure your tech is up to specs. You need the right hardware to have a successful online experience. Ask your school for your minimum computer requirements, if you don't have them already. It's usually best to have a computer and Internet connection that significantly exceeds these baseline requirements.
5. Obtain and review your course materials in advance. Most online courses require students to purchase either hardcopy or electronic versions of textbooks and other study materials. Make sure you do this before your classes begin. Take time to review your materials ahead of time so you get a sense of where the course is headed and the amount of work you'll be asked to perform. As any magician will tell you, it's all about preparation.
Complete these five tasks and you'll have the foundation you need to begin your classes with a sense of confidence and excitement, which is as it should be. Education is a wonderful thing. Be thankful we live in an era you can earn an associate, bachelor's or even a master's degree without ever having to leave home!

For one happy couple Saturday was a very special day. Not only were they guests of honour at their beloved Peterborough's top-of-the-table clash with Barnet but, in an executive suite in the depths of London Road, they tied the knot as well.
To the strains of the Wedding March the blushing bride and her season-ticket holding groom took a bow prior to kick-off before retiring into the main stand. No doubt they were hoping to witness a show equal to Posh's 9-1 and 5-2 wins over Barnet last season to get them in the mood. Instead what ensued might have spoiled the wedding night celebrations altogether.
It all started well enough. When Howard Forinton's shot was deflected wickedly into the net off Warren Hackett, the newlyweds must have thought they were watching another match made in heaven.
Forinton was denied a second for a push on the goalkeeper but Barnet rallied and two goals in two second-half minutes claimed the points. Marlon King scored them both, first steering Ken Charlery's flick past Mark Tyler, then sweeping home the winner to propel the Bees above their hosts and into pole position.
"Last year we got hammered here," said the Barnet manager John Still, who spent one season in charge at London Road. "Today we came and attacked and deservedly won the game, but Peterborough would be disappointed if they didn't maintain their form at the top with the players they have. They'll be all right."
That was little consolation for Barry Fry after his side's first home league defeat of the campaign saw them slip to third. "Everything started well," he said. "But the decision that the referee made to disallow Forinton's second goal cost us the game."

Natural flavours are derived from fruits, nuts, berries, roots, herbs, and other plant sources. Coffee, tea, milk, cocoa, and undiluted fruit and vegetable juices are not considered soft drinks. The term soft drink was originated to distinguish the flavoured drinks from hard liquor, or distilled spirits. Soft drinks were recommended as a substitute in the effort to change the hard-drinking habits of early Americans. Indeed, health concerns of modern consumers led to new categories of soft drinks emphasizing low calorie count, low sodium content, no caffeine, and "all natural" ingredients. There are many specialty soft drinks. Mineral waters are very popular in Europe and Latin America.

I was planning on posting these albums up last Friday, but with the whole MJ thing, it was postponed. Probably should have done this over the weekend, but weekends are too short to be spent on a computer and I was also busy working on the next interview that should be up tomorrow I'm guessing.
A little review of what's going on today, these are just some of the worthwhile projects that have been sent to me over the past 7-10 days. Give them a listen, because they are worth checking out.
First one comes from J. Nolan who I've seen around myspace a few times….Not bad at all.
Here's a new project by up and coming artist J.Nolan, titled "Chasing Cool"

RICHARD Hill says it's a major feather in Eastleigh's cap that new signing Matt Fry was sent their way by respected Luton Town boss John Still.
With left-back Michael Green launching into a three-match suspension at Dover Athletic yesterday, Hill made quick work of bringing in a ready-made replacement.
Fry, 23, is a former West Ham United trainee who has since played for Gillingham, Charlton Athletic, Bradford City and Dartford.
He made 15 appearances for the Darts last term after joining in June 2013, but was released in January after an injuryplagued spell.
Following a brief club-less period, he signed for Concord Rangers, making seven appearances last term as they finished ninth in the Conference South He spent most of pre-season with League Two newcombers Luton Town and arrived at Eastleigh last Monday having appeared for Chelmsford City on Saturday in their goalless draw with Bath City.
Hill explained: "Matt's been about for a while. He's a good lad with a good pedigree.
"He spent pre-season with Luton and, at one point, they were very close to signing him.
"I spoke to John Still about him and John's still quite keen (on Fry), but he said that if I was in a position to sign him then he would highly recommend him.
"John knows Matt's coming to a good club with good people and it gives him a chance to keep his eye on Matt.
"Even though he made one appearance for Chelmsford, it was just to get some games under his belt.
"We offered the lad the same circumstances as Chelmsford and, in a roundabout way it's like us taking a Luton player on loan."
With Eastleigh relative newcomers in the higher reaches of non-League, it didn't surprise Hill that Fry wasn't too familiar with the Stoneham Lane club.
"Matt spoke to John Still because he didn't know much about Eastleigh or Richard Hill and John gave us a very good reference,"
said the Spitfires boss.
"Non-League football is quite incestuous, but when we've got a manager of a club like Luton Town telling a player he could do a lot worse than join Eastleigh, it speaks volumes for this football club," he said.
With Dan Spence capable of switching across from the right-back, Hill could have reshuffled his side until Green's return.
But, having weighed things up, he wanted a square peg in a square hole.
"Matt's a natural replacement," he said.
"We could have muddled through for a couple of weeks, but I didn't want to take the risk of bringing Spence over to the left or potentially putting Jamie Collins there.
"It's better to have an orthodox leftback."
Fry is the Spitfires' sixth signing since promotion to the Vanarama Conference.
He follows the arrivals of Paul Reid, Craig Stanley, Jack Midson and James Constable at the Silverlake Stadium as well as the return of striker Ben Wright, who was on loan at the Spitfires at the end of last season, scoring 13 goals as they won the Conference South.

Crude oil prices fell below $100 a barrel for the first time since February today after weaker-than-expected jobs data in the United States stoked concerns about demand for fuel in the world's biggest economy, the Associated Press reported.
According to MarketWatch, crude for June delivery dropped $4.32, or 4.2 percent, to $98.21 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Losses for the week were hovering above six percent, MarketWatch said.
"Crude oil prices have dropped sharply today as fears of a global economic slowdown increased," CMC Markets analyst Michael Hewson told Agence France-Presse.
Other factors also weighed on oil prices: OPEC Secretary General Abdullah al-Badri's comments on Thursday that the 12-member organization was "working hard" to bring down the cost of oil; figures showing high US levels of crude inventories; and the ongoing European debt crisis.
"Many funds are still on the long side of crude oil, but the global economic recovery remains something a bit elusive," Olivier Jakob at consultancy Petromatrix was quoted by the Financial Times as saying.
Data released by the Labor Department earlier today showed the US economy created 115,000 jobs in April, fewer than analysts had expected.
And while the unemployment rate dipped slightly, from 8.2 percent to 8.1 percent, UPI said that was mainly due to more the 522,000 people who gave up looking for work.
The disappointing figures also weighed on US equity markets. In afternoon trading, the Dow Jones Index was down 1.2 percent to 13,046.44 and the S&P was off 1.5 percent at 1,371.08, according to the New York Times.
After a run of positive economic data earlier in the year, recent figures suggest the US economic recovery could be faltering. The US economy slowed more than expected in the first quarter and April retail sales missed analysts' forecasts.

Steve Lang: Remembering Mike Fluegel
"Anybody who ain't out huntin' and fishin' is jest fritterin' away his life." – Rancid Crabtee, a.k.a. Patrick McManus
"Everyone should believe in something. I believe I'll go fishing." – Henry David Thoreau
There comes a time in everyone's life, and Mike Fluegel and I shared a few.
Cancer claimed Mike at the point where he probably planned to replace frittering with purpose, profession for avocation: to shelve his legal practice to more closely follow the seasons of angling, bow hunting, and ice fishing. He worked hard, but thankfully, he scheduled well and kept family, pastimes and job in proper order during his 65-plus years.
For several years in the 1970s, Mike and I spent a fair share (our wives might maintain "far too much") time together chasing geese, pheasants and walleyes throughout west central Minnesota. And once, in the Ontario wilderness, we caught walleyes, then chased down a drifting boat that meant the difference between savoring dinnertime beers or waiting a long time for rescue.
We met in college in the late 1960s and were briefly teammates on an intramural basketball team. Mike was also a starting tackle on the football team, an accomplished golfer and I would soon learn, an aggressive rebounder. After once reaching for a rebound, then finding myself five feet from my original spot, I learned to step back and wait for Mike to pass any ball he put his hands around.
I bagged my first Canada goose while hunting with Mike and his dad, and we caught numerous fish together, both in the boat and on the ice. We watched the Vikings on Monday Night Football, enjoyed good food and brew, and at one point, learned that a waist was a terrible thing to mind.
"Time to do something about this," Mike said, looking down in a vain attempt to see his belt buckle. I realized I couldn't see mine, either.
"Tell you what, Langer, the UMM gym opens at 6:45 every morning. Starting tomorrow, I'll pick you up at 6:40, we'll run some laps, lift some weights and see if we can't lose 10 percent of our weight in a month."
"What's the incentive?" I asked, smiling at my plate heaped with mashed potatoes, rich gravy and rare roast beef.
"Pure, unabashed, derisive scorn if you don't lose enough...and the dinner check the next time we go out."
Preliminary weigh-ins set Mike's goal at 25 pounds and mine at 21. Every wintry, weekday morning for the next four weeks saw us loping 15-25 times around the three-basketball-court gym floor, followed by push-ups, sit-ups, curls, bench presses and other repetitions of deviously savage amusement.
On the month's last Friday morning, Mike stepped on the scale, set the weight at 222 pounds and grinned as it registered slightly heavy. I grimaced, slid the pendulum to 184 and watched the beam click upward, a half-pound too light.
"See you after your noon basketball game," he said.
Following an hour of full-court punishment, I stepped on the scale again just as Mike poked his head into the locker room.
"You made it!" he said, extending his hand. "We'll pick you up for dinner at six-thirty."
Mike and I were among the younger professionals of Morris in the 1970s, but I will quickly note that I was younger and he was professional. At one point in our careers, he served as city attorney while I was a council member, having deluded myself into thinking that I could actually help guide the path of government rather than add to the confusion. (I will note the voters were not fooled; I finished third in a two-seat race, but was appointed when one of the newly-elected solons resigned his post and left Morris.)
Two years of public service did teach me a valuable lesson, though: to make my duties seriously but not myself. Mike and I laughed often, largely at ourselves. Save for not seeking an additional term, I cannot think of any benefits I rendered to the City of Morris during my tenure, but I see weekly evidence via the Sun Tribune that the community has not only survived but thrived since my departure. Council service did, however, give me access to one of the stranger experiences in local government that I have observed.
One morning Mike called and said, "I'm going to be impeached."
"What? Why? How? When?" I stammered, using most of the principal journalistic questions.
"Just as soon as the plaintiff-to-be earns his law degree," he said. Over coffee, Mike filled in the details.
The ensuing saga turned out to be your not-so-typical-but-very-possible small town tale involving a hailstorm, shredded convertible ragtop, flippant comment about getting enough money to leave town, motel hold-up by a ski-masked robber two nights later, investigation prompting the execution of a search warrant with no results and a subsequent aggrieved announcement of the intent to seek $50,000 in damages from the city as well as impeachment of the mayor, chief of police and city attorney. Said action was to commence as soon as the aggrieved party – by his announcement – attended and successfully completed the requirements for a law degree, then returned from California to file suit.
The identified law school was found not to exist, so Mike quickly calculated a minimum of two Presidential terms to complete fund-raising, build the law school, admit students and hatch legal eagles before any possible action could begin.
"In the meantime, Langer, those curb and gutter issues won't go away," he laughed.
"And the walleyes are biting on Little Chip."
Steve Lang wishes RIP to Mike Fluegel (1947-2013).

CHICAGO, May 14, 2014 — The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York turns 225 years old later this year, and a big celebration is planned for the oldest and most influential trial court in the nation.
In his new book from the American Bar Association, "The Mother Court: Tales of Cases That Mattered in America's Greatest Trial Court," longtime New York attorney James D. Zirin warmly captures why the SDNY has reigned as the country's pre-eminent trial court in the post-World War II era.
Zirin, a former assistant U.S. attorney under legendary prosecutor Robert M. Morgenthau, escorts readers through the history, the trials, the judges, the prosecutors and the celebrated defendants of the SDNY, focusing primarily on the cases and characters since the late 1940s crackdown on communist sympathizers. "Jim Zirin is a talented trial lawyer, an able writer and a keen observer," Morgenthau, who turns 95 this year, writes in the foreword. "It is not surprising, therefore, that he has crafted an extraordinary behind-the-scenes story, describing many of the people, cases and events of the Mother Court. … He has made a valuable contribution to the history of the court that will be of interest to all."
Zirin affectionately provides a guidebook and testament to the Mother Court — he says no one is sure when the name originated or who first coined the phrase. The SDNY traces its origins to the Judiciary Act of 1789 and antedates by a few weeks the organization of the U.S. Supreme Court. Above all, Zirin tells the story of "The Mother Court" with a love and reverence spanning more than a half-century that began when he first observed cases as a student at Princeton.
Now senior counsel in the New York office of Sidley Austin LLP, Zirin also shares stories of his favorite judges starting in the 1960s. "Iconic figures who projected the very spirit of justice," he wrote of his choices. He recounts, for instance, one story involving U.S. District Court Judge Thomas Murphy, who served on the Mother Court from 1951 until his death in 1995. As he arraigned a Black Muslim defendant on a narcotics charge, Murphy and the defendant had this exchange:
Murphy: Do you have a lawyer?
The defendant: Your Honor, Allah is my counsel.
Murphy: Who represents you locally?

What others are saying about "The Mother Court: Tales of Cases That Mattered in America's Greatest Trial Court."
"This lively account of a half-century of history of the nation's oldest, and perhaps its most exciting, trial court, chronicling the communist trials of the hysterical McCarthy era, the exposing of America to the literature of sex, prosecutions of Mafia cartels and sensational libel cases, is peppered with the perceptive observations of a wise, experienced litigator — like flakes of chili and oregano on the choicest New York pizza." — Pierre N. Leval, United States Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit
"A round of applause for James Zirin's 'Mother Court,' a story engagingly, articulately and, above all, lovingly told. 'We had the experience but missed the meaning' — a T.S. Eliot quote cited in the book — could not be more apt. Through Mr. Zirin's eyes, we do indeed come to appreciate the lasting contribution of our day-to-day Southern District encounters to the quality of our lives and fabric of our society." — Judith Kaye, former chief judge, New York State Court of Appeals
"Every wannabe lawyer, practicing lawyer and anyone who wants a riveting and revealing read about legendary lawyers and cases should get this book. 'Mother Court' bristles with inspiring, amusing and embarrassing actions and antics of lawyers and clients in some of the nation's most celebrated cases. Thanks to Jim Zirin, what happened behind the scenes in Manhattan's Southern District no longer stays there." Joseph A. Califano Jr.

Thanks got it.Hi Daniel,How/Who is collecting ideas for default packages for debian desktop?AFAIK they are kept on the wiki.
I'm thinking of a networked world, where all of our data is accessible from anywhere all of the time. Storing mail on a dedicated server seems like the right place, rather than on a home pc. Perhaps using IMAP on the server. That way I can access my mail from my PDA or cell phone while away. For a notebook user I can see a good argument for storing them in both places. What do you think?Sendmail has a friendlier set of prompts, but both of these packages have slowed down system startup when not configured optimally.Worse, even with the presumably correct "stand alone" selection for the average desktop machine the default configuration is taking the time to time out some network requests on boot. (see bug filed agains exim4) I think a MTA should defenitaly be installed though configured to handle local mail by default. And MUAs should all look for local mail out of the box anyway, wich unfortunately seems not to be the case with many of the desktop MUAs (desktops tend to ignore the goods of the system too much).
Thanks, Daniel

Foreclosure rates declined by less than 5 percent in Jefferson County last year, though a backlog in the wake of a brief national moratorium may be partially responsible.
The county recorded 3,849 new foreclosures in 2010, down from 4,027 the year before.
And while the number of foreclosures has remained relatively steady, the causes are changing, said county public trustee Margaret Chapman, citing a trend away from variable interest-rate loans. Today, more mortgage holders are simply losing their homes as a result of the economy, she said.
Jefferson County's 2011 investment portfolio earnings will be only about half of 2010 levels, officials said Jan. 18, citing drooping interest rates in the bond market.
Net earnings last year reached more than $5 million for the county, though interest rates on current investments have decreased. Anticipated investment earnings for 2011 total $2.5 million.
Using handfuls of clay as a boat-building medium, Ken Caryl Middle School's female students received a brief tutorial in physics and a larger lesson from a pair of Massachusetts Institute of Technology scholars: Math and science are not exclusively the province of boys.
The impromptu ship building, a demonstration of Archimedes' Principle of Buoyancy, was indeed a challenge for a room of about 50 girls, who worked in small groups to build vessels intended to float despite the density of the material.
Jefferson County on Tuesday granted a decade-long grace period on a loan of more than $6.4 million to an undeveloped metropolitan district for construction of the C-470 and Alameda interchange.
Green Tree Metropolitan District, which is governed by at least one developer who has contributed substantially to Jeffco Republican campaigns, borrowed the money in 2007 from the county to help construct the $17 million interchange.
Jefferson County Commissioner Kevin McCasky announced Jan. 19 he will be stepping down from his elected position to accept a job as president and CEO of the Jefferson Economic Council.
McCasky, 50, a Republican whose term would have run through 2012, had previously sat on the JEC's board as a representative of the county. His hiring was unanimously approved Jan. 19 at the nonprofit's board meeting.

SOUTH JEFFCO — Some people are apparently unfamiliar with the premise of retail commerce: 1. Shopper enters store; 2. Shopper sensibly selects merchandise; 3. Shopper pays for said merchandise; 4. Unless filming a remarkably unfunny sequel to "Mallrats," shopper leaves store.

Jeffco school board members took a step back from the board's controversial media policy Jan. 13, with President Dave Thomas announcing he would not attempt to prevent other board members from speaking to the press.
The policy, which was adopted in 2000, forbids all board members except the president from speaking to the media about virtually any topic.
County Commissioner Faye Griffin was appointed Jan. 11 as the board's chairwoman, replacing former commissioner Kathy Hartman in the year-long role.
Commissioner Kevin McCasky, who served as chairman in 2009, nominated Griffin and gave recommendations for the commissioners' appointments to a long list of other county boards.
The Foothills Park & Recreation District may soon be offering a gun-safety course, taking the organization in a direction unseen since it closed a skeet-shooting range decades ago.
The classes, if approved, likely would not be held in any of the district's buildings and would be taught by a contracted instructor.

Former House Clerk May Be a Key in Resolving the Foley Case
By JEFF ZELENY
Published: October 18, 2006
In the days after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, as elaborate battle plans were drawn to protect members of Congress and preserve government continuity, Jeff Trandahl, the clerk of the House, did something else. He obtained a commercial driver's license.
Mr. Trandahl wanted to be ready for the next emergency. Of all his responsibilities in Congress, a priority was safeguarding the high school students who work as pages. He arranged for buses to be parked nearby, so pages could leave their dormitories or the Capitol. If needed, he would drive them to safety.
His concern for the pages highlights the protection provided to the teenagers in their time here. But it also raises piercing questions about how years of whispers over a congressman's unwelcome advances could escape public notice until being exposed on a television news program.
Mr. Trandahl, a commanding behind-the-scenes player on Capitol Hill before stepping down last year, was little known outside Congress. But he has emerged as a central figure in the case of how the House Republican leadership dealt with the conduct of Mark Foley, the former representative whose sexually charged messages to Congressional pages have shaken the midterm elections.
As the House ethics committee pursues its investigation, few accounts are more crucial than Mr. Trandahl's in determining whether Republican leaders acted with enough urgency. He is scheduled to testify to the committee on Thursday, when he could corroborate -- or contradict -- accusations that Speaker J. Dennis Hastert's office knew about Mr. Foley's behavior at least three years ago.
The House clerk, a vestige of the patronage system, serves at the pleasure of the speaker and, in recent years, Mr. Hastert's influential chief counsel, Ted Van Der Meid. House investigators are trying to deduce whether a deteriorating relationship between Mr. Van Der Meid and others in the Capitol, particularly Mr. Trandahl, had a role in the handling of the complaints about Mr. Foley.
As House clerk, Mr. Trandahl had a rare bird's-eye view of what was occurring beneath the Capitol dome. As a gay Republican, he also had a window into a subculture not widely discussed within his party.
Although he never dwelled on his sexuality, he also did not go to extreme lengths to conceal it, unlike Mr. Foley, who publicly acknowledged he is gay only after resigning this month.
Mr. Trandahl, 42, has told friends he was not a social friend of Mr. Foley and did not jeopardize pages' safety. He has declined to discuss the case publicly while it remains under investigation by the ethics committee and the F.B.I., which is trying to determine whether Mr. Foley broke laws by exchanging sexually explicit messages with current and former pages.
Interviews with more than 20 former colleagues and acquaintances, Republicans and Democrats alike, paint Mr. Trandahl as a fastidious manager with a penchant for playing by the rules. At the same time, the colleagues and acquaintances said, he was a keen inside player who mastered the art of navigating an institution that is structured to protect its own.
''When the rest of the trees blow down, Jeff Trandahl will be left standing up,'' said Craig Shniderman, executive director of Food and Friends, a charity here, who has known Mr. Trandahl for nearly a decade. ''This is a pretty complicated situation, but I don't have any doubt that he did the right thing.''
For seven years, Mr. Trandahl oversaw more than 300 employees, a $20 million budget and House functions. He also supervised the page program. And in the conflicting accounts and varying recollections about when Republican leaders learned of Mr. Foley's conduct, it is Mr. Trandahl who seems interwoven at each step along the way.
In the House, Mr. Trandahl had what amounted to an all-access pass, giving V.I.P.'s and friends tours through little-known corridors and up to the high arches of the rotunda. He guided many facets of House operations from an ornate second-floor office overlooking the Mall. Just a handful of politicians enjoyed a grander view of the Washington Monument.
Mr. Trandahl arrived in Washington in 1983, months after graduating from high school in Spearfish, S.D., to work in the office of Senator James Abdnor, Republican of South Dakota. After Mr. Abdnor was defeated three years later, he found his eager young aide a job on the House side of Capitol Hill, working for the senator's close friend Representative Virginia Smith, Republican of Nebraska.
By then, Mr. Trandahl had earned a degree in government from the University of Maryland and began to stand out as a consummate networker in a city filled with networkers.
He ascended to various positions in the House, seldom forgetting a name or face, and was an experienced insider in 1994 when Republicans took control of the House for the first time in four decades.
In 1998, Newt Gingrich promised to clean up years of patronage largess in the House, first by Democrats and then by Republicans, and appointed Mr. Trandahl acting clerk of the House. After unexpectedly becoming speaker, Mr. Hastert made Mr. Trandahl's appointment permanent.

A subtle spirituality shines through in ''Lit From the Other Side,'' the current exhibit at Danielsville's Lowery Gallery. Featuring art from a trio of artists in a variety of media, much of the work alludes to themes of divinity in nature and the sacred moments that emerge in everyday life.

Marcia Bacon Connolly's outstanding body of work includes vibrant hand-colored prints and prisma-color drawings depicting scenes of rural African-American life. In these lively and linear works, familiar acts such as hanging laundry and visiting a country fair are injected with an otherworldly energy as the landscapes swirl around weighty figures that quiver with spirit.
Similarly, Connolly's three-dimensional works embrace the idea of sanctity in the ordinary. Constructed from match boxes and sardine cans, these precious icon-like objects utilize pottery shards, glitter, broken baubles and birdseed to suggest allegories of redemption and tender odes to friendship.
"Doorway Into Summer"
Connolly's husband, Chuck Connolly, exhibits a series of stained-glass panels, several of which incorporate images abstracted from nature to form symmetrical, patterned compositions that call to mind the prayer rugs and mandala designs of Eastern cultures. Embracing a medium most notably reserved for sacred spaces, Chuck Connolly elevates earthly images to holy status.
Sculptor Mike Jones takes on random bits of wood and discarded chunks of stone to create humble objects of reverence. Executed in a folk art style familiar to these parts, the artist's series of wall-mounted Tiki figures suggest the exotic sacredness of both Polynesian carvings and nail-stabbed African fetish figures.
Inspired by a more Western source, Jones' ''Eve'' is a formidable and heroic, rather androgynous figure who sits slump-shouldered and blank-eyed. Carved from a limestone lintel salvaged from a demolished building, Eve cups the fateful apple in both hands as if it were a crystal ball relaying her unavoidable fate.

Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida
My mother who lived in fl. has died. She has a will and my sister may have power of attorney. We need to know what to do now.
3 Answers from Attorneys
The power of attorney expired upon your mother's death, so it isn't of use now.
What you need to do is examine her assets. If her assets were jointly, ITF/ATF, or named a beneficiary, then the surviving beneficiary can get a death certificate and receive those assets.
If it only had your mother's name on it, then probate probably will be required.
My recommendation is to seek an attorney, like myself, who provides a free consultation to review the matter fully and give you the proper directions of what is needed in your particular situation. Then you can proceed as required.
If I can be of further assistance, please let me know. 888-475-1732 (though I am on vacation until the end of the month).
Mr. Kaplan is correct. However if your mother died in Jacksonville, give my office a call for an appointment.
Her estate may need to go through probate in the county where she resided.

University academics and support staff have announced a third national walkout amid an increasingly bitter row over pay.
Members of four unions - Unite, Unison, the University and College Union (UCU) and EIS in Scotland - are due to take part in the strike on Thursday, February 6.
Institutions across the UK could face disruption with lectures, seminars, workshops and tutorials cancelled or postponed as academics along with support staff such as technicians and administrators join picket lines.

University employers said that they are disappointed that another strike has been called, adding that institutions are reporting "low to no support" for the walkout.
The latest move is a further escalation of the unions' industrial action over a 1% pay rise offered to university staff.
They insist that the pay offer means that their members have faced a 13% pay cut in real terms since October 2008.
Two one-day national strikes were staged in the autumn, and the UCU is currently holding a series of two-hour stoppages which they say is aimed at disrupting teaching.
Mike McCartney, Unite's national officer for education, said: "Our members have endured a six-year pay drought which has seen a 13% cut in pay in real terms since 2008.
"In the context of the cost of living crisis, the current 1% on offer is paltry. This also has to be seen against the background of the top university vice chancellors having an average £22,000 pay rise in 2012-13."
He added: "This will be the third day of strike action our members have taken - and more industrial action is on the cards in 2014, unless the employers get around the table to negotiate a fair and equitable settlement for those that keep Britain in the top 10 global university league table.
A spokesman for the Universities and Colleges Employers Association (UCEA) said: "Higher education (HE) institutions are already reporting low to no support for the industrial action that UCU, Unite, Unison and EIS continue to call on their members to take. Since less than 5% of staff voted to support strike action, this is not unexpected.
"We are disappointed to see yet another strike day called with the intention to affect students' education, and that the trade unions continue to present a partial picture on HE pay.
"The pay increases this year, comprising the nationally negotiated rise which was implemented in December and backdated to August 2013, individual increments and merit awards are costing around 3% and this is at the limits of affordability for HE institutions. Actual earnings in HE have not seen anything like the decline that the unions are claiming."

In the film, The Terminator, director/writer James Cameron conducts an amazing,
new age movie that would forever change movie making in the future. This film starts
off in the year 2029 in a post-apocalyptic world. We see that cyborgs have taken
over the planet and that they are trying to eliminate the human race, but there is a
human resistance that is turning the war around lead by one leader, John Connor. It
then fast forwards to the year 1984 in the city of Los Angeles where we see that the
machines have sent a cyborg back in time, the terminator, played by Arnold
Schwarzenegger, to kill Sarah Connor, played by Linda Hamilton, so that her son John
Connor cannot be born. We then see that the human resistance has too sent someone
back in time, Kyle Reese, played by Michael Biehn, to protect Sarah from being
killed my the terminator. The terminator then goes and looks up Sarah in a phonebook
and finds that there are three listed in the area. Being that he is a machine he
does the easiest thing and just goes kill each Sarah in order of the phonebook. Kyle
also goes to the phonebook and looks up Sarah Connor, but being that he already has
previous knowledge of her he knows which Sarah to go to, to help. Once the
terminator sees that he has not killed the correct Sarah he finds out that the right
Sarah is at a night club and goes to find her there. As he approaches Sarah at the
night club Kyle comes in and they escape narrowly.
Being that Sarah has no idea what
is going on other than the fact that something is trying to kill her, she is very
resistant to Kyle. Kyle tries to explain to Sarah that he is from the future sent to
protect her from the terminator because her son is the key to the victory of the
resistance. He explains that a company named Skynet created artificial intelligence
and that the machines became self-aware and sought to destroy the human race. Skynet
in the future goes on to cause a nuclear holocaust to wipe out the human race. Kyle
then went on to explain to Sarah why the terminator was sent back to kill her and
how it is nearly impossible to destroy it.
Kyle knows that the terminator will not
rest until he has completed his mission so they are continuously on the run, the
terminator attacks them yet again through a high speed car chase. This is when all
the action really starts. We can see how terminator will not stop for anything. This
chase then leads to the arrest of Kyle and Sarah taken into police custody. The
police put Kyle into the psyche ward where he tries to explain what time he is from
and that everyone is in danger if they do not release him. Of course, the police do
not believe him and they ultimately pay the price, the terminator tracks them to the
police station where he kills almost everyone in his way, we see that no amount of
bullets can stop him. Luckily though, Kyle and Sarah narrowly escape yet again and
they hide out in a local motel, where Kyle and Sarah fornicate, which would lead to
the birth of John Connor, the resistance leader. The terminator again tracks them to
the motel and another chase occurs while Sarah and Kyle try to escape the grasp of
the machine. As Kyle and Sarah seek refuge in a factory, Kyle sees that the only way
to save Sarah is to place a pipe bomb inside the terminator through his robotic rib
cage and this almost completely disables the terminator but it also kills Kyle in
the process. Sarah is now all alone with the terminator still pursuing her, she
retreats to the factories compressor which the terminator gets crushed by which
destroys the machine.
Sarah continues her journey after her new found knowledge of
the future and heads towards Mexico. While on her way there she records tapes that
warn her son about the future and how important he is to the human race.

Comedy written by and starring Sacha Baron Cohen following the dedicated attempts of a dictator to stave off the terrible threat of democracy. Like all good dictators, General Admiral Aladeen (Cohen), the self-described 'Supreme Leader, All Triumphant General and Chief Opthalmologist of the People's Republic of Wadiya', understands that the people of his nation don't really know what they want - only he does. That's why democracy is such a terrible threat and why Aladeen must cast himself against it with as much vigour as he can muster. Unfortunately, in the form of ill-intentioned meddlers like the United States of America and the United Nations, Aladeen also faces external threats to his rule. The film follows him as he heads to a UN meeting in New York to defy his enemies and their muddled notions of 'rule by the people'.

President, First Lady among big fans of 'Scandal,' says Bellamy Young
NEW YORK (FOX 5 NY) - As season five of 'Scandal' comes to a close on May 12, actress Bellamy Young is previewing the last two episodes.
"This week's episode is so special. We cried like three times during this table read," said Bellamy who plays 'First Lady Mellie Grant.'
She won't say much about why the cast was crying, but we do know that it's tied to the presidential race.
"It's been a joy to watch our writers be inspired or sometimes thwarted by this political season. It's a crazy time when life is weirder than art," said Bellamy.
The TV series centers on character Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) and her work protecting and defending the public images of the nation's elite by keeping their secrets under wraps.
While Bellamy can't say for sure if two of the shows biggest fans, President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, will be watching, Bellamy says it's a must-see season finale.
"I got to see them both again recently. It's so surreal to see the people who make the decisions who change the world. She seems to keep up. FLOTUS opened her arms so wide and she said, "why did you kill your son!" said Bellamy.
'Scandal' airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. on ABC.

Crepe recipes may sound like they're "hands off" when it comes to diabetic cooking but, by and large, the basic ingredients for a crepe are actually very healthy and diabetes-diet appropriate.

I have many clients who prefer quick, easy and even prepared recommendations for what to eat, but I have almost as many clients who enjoy cooking and being hands-on in the kitchen. They often request that I revise their favorite "gourmet" recipes to fit better into their diabetic meal plans. These surprisingly easy crepe recipes fit both bills.

If crepes on a diabetes diet sound too good to be true, remember that it all comes down to how they are prepared. It is the typical high-sugar and high-fat fillings that put crepes out of sync with what's recommended for someone with your condition.

Using whole-grain flour, skim milk, and egg whites for the crepe batter can make a basic crepe even healthier. Using aromatics, like onions and garlic, in savory crepes add flavor without the fat. In-season fruit is economical and a naturally sweet way to lighten-up a sweet crepe filling.

Basic Crepe Recipe

1 cup whole-wheat flour

1 1/3 cups nonfat milk

2 large egg whites

1 large egg yolk

Combine all of the ingredients with an electric hand mixer or hand whisk to make the batter.

Spray a 6-inch skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Heat the skillet, then remove from heat.

Spoon 2 tablespoons batter into skillet, tilting skillet to spread the batter evenly. Return skillet to heat and brown one side of crepe. Invert pan over a paper towel to remove crepe. These can be made 24 to 48 hours ahead of time and refrigerated until needed.

Makes 16 Basic Crepes

Nutrifacts per crepe: 45 calories, 7 grams carbohydrate, 0.4 grams fat

Chicken and Spinach Crepes

2 tablespoons diced onion

1 clove garlic, minced

1 1/4 cups nonfat milk

1 tablespoon cornstarch

Pinch of nutmeg

2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon dry white wine

1 cup grilled and diced chicken breast

1 pack chopped frozen spinach, steamed and drained

4 basic crepes

Cook onions and garlic in a skillet sprayed with nonfat cooking spray. Combine milk and cornstarch and add to saucepan. Cook until thick and bubbly, stirring often. Add nutmeg, cheese, and wine. Stir until cheese melts. Remove 1/3 of sauce and set aside.

Combine chicken, spinach, and reserved 1/3 cup of sauce. Spread 1/2 cup of filling over the unbrowned side of each crepe. Roll and place seam side down in skillet. Drizzle remaining sauce over crepes, cover skillet, and cook over low heat until sauce begins to bubble.

Nutrifacts per crepe: 150 calories, 17 grams carbohydrate, 2.5 grams fat

Creamy Blueberry Crepes

1/2 cup low-fat ricotta cheese

1/2 cup 1% cottage cheese

1 tablespoon

1/4 teaspoon lemon juice concentrate

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

4 basic crepes

Whip ricotta and cottage cheese for 2 to 3 minutes with an electric mixer. Add remaining ingredients, except berries and crepes. Blend 30 seconds. Now, gently fold in berries. Spoon an even amount of filling into each crepe. Roll crepe around filling and serve.

Russia Moves to Expand Police Powers Before Olympics
Ruling Party Says Bill Needed to Fight Terrorism
MOSCOW—Russia's parliament took up a bill Wednesday that would broaden the powers of the country's security forces in the run-up to the Winter Olympics, allowing them to search people and cars without a warrant.
Russia has already erected a security cordon around the Black Sea resort of Sochi, with thousands of officers on "combat alert" at the venue for next month's Games. In the wake of a pair of deadly suicide bombings...

This may be one of the most deliciously embarrassing things I've witnessed for quite some time, mortifying in both the watching and the perpetration. The script, by Brad Kahn and Jacqueline Stewart, purports to be an admittedly loose spin on the Oscar Wilde tale of the debaucher who remains untouched by his transgressions while in a musty attic a portrait manifests his sins. In this case it's an actress, Doreen Gray (Kindy Barr), whose portrait is a 1939 negative that bloats and droops over the next 20 years while its subject continues to play ingénues on film though being a general pig in real life. Allusions are made to Hollywood films about Hollywood, but I'd hate to be tested on the points of connection.
A director, if nothing else, should at least do the public the favor of saying at some time during the rehearsal period, "Darling, stop that. It's irritating." Kahn seems to have been incapable of this. His lead actress has three deliveries: the just-awakened breathy one with which she begins each line, the scrunched-forehead shrill one with which she ends most lines, and the slitty-eyed whisper that denotes madness. Her reactions have the curious effect of making the stage appear to be a badly edited film. There will be a moment, an "Oh, my God!" out of nowhere, then a return to the previous state in which the actress continues to explore the difference between simpering and smoldering. In my callow days I would have insinuated an unkind similarity to Tori Spelling. I have since seen Spelling onstage, and I'm here to tell you that by comparison La Spelling is Eleanora Duse.
The show needs someone like Charles Busch in the lead who can joyously explore the horror of the script that dares cough up lines such as, "Tell me, why did you choose me from all the girls of the chorus?" or, "What, I'm going to be on the cover of Life magazine? Oh my God!" This would at least give the surrounding redeemable actors (Candyce Columbus as the lesbian agent, Fran Maddocks as the crazy sister, Jeff Haas as the amoral manager) something to work with. Oddly, there is no credit for sound design—the one area in which a sense of humor pops up. The musical selections make wry commentary on the piece while the actual sound, such as the phone that has a ringer up in the ceiling, is classically dreadful. The lighting design (Peter Strauss) would have been funny (who doesn't love a red confessional downspot?) had the show been directed that way. Or at all.
When the debacle was over I noticed another critic, not one usually spotted in small NoHo theatres. "What on earth are you doing here?" I asked. She rolled her eyes and muttered, "What is anybody doing here?" Reconsidering the wisdom of running a second week would be my prayer.
"Doreen Gray—A Hollywood Story," presented by Kahn Artists in conjunction with the Raven Playhouse at the Raven Playhouse, 5233 Lankershim Blvd., N. Hollywood. Fri.-Sat. 8 p.m. Mar. 1-Apr. 6. $15. (323) 883-0223.

SALEM, Ore. (KOIN 6) — The couple who allegedly threatened users of the Sandy Ridge trail network (and their dogs) with mace, stun-gun use and in one instance a firearm, have been arrested.
David Gathwright, 60, is charged with unlawful use of a weapon, menacing and pointing a firearm at another, with bail set at $50,000. Pamela Gathwright, 57, is charged with attempted harassment and attempted animal abuse, with bail set at $25,000.
Deputy District Attorney Bill Golden said the couple were arrested July 1.
Cyclist Chris Hess said he was held at gunpoint by the Gathwrights on the trail last May. The couple became hostile to Hess, his wife, daughter and dog, he said.
He said Pamela Gathwright was attempting to shock his dog by sparking a stun gun. Complaints grew on the trail's Facebook page, something that frustrated police because people would post their run-ins with the Gathwrights on the social media page, rather than file them with the police.
Kevin Nickel and his dog were threatened with Mace by the couple.
A sign reading "It is unlawful to engage in threatening behavior" is posted on the trail, and advises users to keep their dogs on leash.

" Genre: Indie Rock & Punk - Goth / Artist: Sex Gang Children / Audio CD released 1999-10-01 at Receiver "
* Prices may differ from that shown
A band which even makes Gary Glitter feel a bit dodgy typing it into google, the oddly named Sex Gang Children led by Andi Sexgang was once the name considered for his pal Boy George's culture club. Modern day gothic rock is not really for me at all with the exception of those stalwarts The Sisters of Mercy but there is something uite intriguing about the raw sound of this early 80's batcave scene band.
The band were active throughout most of the 80s but only really produced one real album to date, however various other singles are added on this compilation "The Hungry Years" which is about as good as they get.
Heavy bass lines and nasally vocals are matched with simple drumming and a raw often feedback filled garage guitar sound, I might not have made it sound that attractive but together it works well. The best track for me is the rather long anthem "Mauritia Mayer" an ode to the Bavarian proprietress whose hotel was famously used by artists, musicians and rich folk in the mid 19th century. It's simple but effective, at the other end of the scale you have the more instrumental Sebastiene with more complex lyrics like:
Sister tell wishing well to the young men dead on the shore
She soon died a suicide, kissed the table in god's name
It's the code of the cowboy men to defile all that is pure
Too much hate, too much hate and your ignorance is your strength
Don't sell us Brittanica, with it's oozing pipeline dream
Eat your children baked in a pie, i will blind you to improve
Your visions of I
Bite the face of piety, kiss your mother's broken spirit
There is nothing not even shame
Just the stench from the room full of social animals
Caught again jezebel, with your 'friend' and his beauty bible
He once walked through sacred lands
Now he waves his nazi dagger
Wish you well sebastiane
With your smiling puritan youth
And you feel, feel no pain
As they cut through your bluey green vein
and whilst it may not be as easy to sing a long to as Mauritia Mayer it still comes off as a legendary memorable track. A top album and apart from my above two mentioned faves on it, there are plenty of other enjoyable tracks and whether it's German Nun or Beasts (another super track), the lyrics are much more complex than much of today's music.
