Members of the standing committee
of tho City Council have heretofore 'ta
ken, and some do yet take, too much
responsibility in the matter of expend
ing tho money of tho city. A mem
ber of a committee has no right to direct
any peroon to labor for tho city; has no
right to order work to bo done In this
or that manner; and when ho assumes
tho right tu do so, ho is guilty of assur
anco which merits rebuke. If each
member of ouch of tho standing com
mittees has authority to say to a laborer,
"Do this," there Is no use for tho coun
cil, and the expenditures of the oity will
bo largely Increased over what tho legi
timate expenditures should be. Tho
council Is the legislature of tho city. Ry
its authority only can money be oxpon
ded; and If It refers anything to a com
mittee, that cnmmltteo must act on the
matter referred In a body, and not in
piecemeal. It must meet after notloo
given, aud it must formally transaot Its
business. Tho sooner tho council re

Yesterday afternoon , Officer Cum m I tigs
arrcstod a man named James Dixon, on
the suspicion that he was tho man who
personated pollcoman on Thursday
night, and robbed Henry Woods, -pilot
on tho 'Sani Brown," of his overcoat.
Dixon was taken before 'Squirn Dross.
Woods testified, that, on tho night of
the robbery, ho was "full;" in fact, very
drunk, so drunk'that he did not know In
what saloon he had boon or whero ho
mot the man who robbod him. Ho had
an indistinct recollection of being some
whore with " Horace," and tho robber;
that tho three started ,out together; that
tho stranger told him, after they wero on
tho sidewalk, somewhere, that ho was
a policeman, and had concluded to tako
him (Woods) to tho calaboose; that when
somewhere near tho calaboose, or tho
Antrim House, or elsewhere, the stranger
proposed tj.iot him off if ho would do
poslte raouey for Ilia appearance; that
he refused, and drew oil" his overcoat;
that the stranger took ho'd of tho coat
and ran away ;, that ho pursued, crying
out in a loud voice; tlmt tho stranger
turned around, cama back, and hit him
an awful blow on tho nose; that ho could
not say tho prisoner was tho man, and
that all ho knew ubout It was that his
coat had been stolen, aud that tho coat
in court was his.
Tho prisoner stated, that he was from
Kvansvillc; that ho had been working
on tho Indianapolis and Vincennes road,
and was waiting for a boat to go down
tho river, to get work on tho Llttlo Rock
aud Fort Smith railroad ; that he had slept
on tho wharf boat Thursday night, and
In tho morning had walked out In town,
and had found the coat on tho side walk.
Ho had tried to sell the coat.
Tho 'Squire, deeming tho evidence suf
flcient to creato the belief that tho pris
oner might boguilty, bound him ovei to
answer at tho next term of tho Circuit
Court. In default of ball, ho was sout up
to tho county Jail.

MONTREAL -- If the general manager and the coach of the Maple Leafs can't get their stories straight on simple matters, let alone get along, then how is the rest of the team supposed to thrive in so poisoned an environment?
It is little wonder the Leafs were blasted last night in Montreal in a game they needed to win.
It is little wonder that a day the began with miscommunication between John Ferguson and Pat Quinn -- the coach should be the first one to know that his goalie is done for the season -- ended with an evening performance of little cohesion and much confusion.
This kind of thing doesn't happen accidentally.
This kind of dysfunction requires effort of the least productive kind.
Last night, in the most meaningful Toronto-Montreal hockey game in 27 years, the Leafs relinquished whatever opportunity they had to claw their way back into a playoff race of pure pretenders. This was supposed to represent a new beginning after Tuesday's impressive win over Carolina.
Instead, it represents the beginning of the end, a countdown to the inevitability of major change.
- The official end for Ed Belfour as a Maple Leaf, after two breathtaking seasons followed by one painful and expensive miscalculation. He will be paid to go away.
- The beginning of the end as Pat Quinn after seven seasons as Leafs coach. Quinn has always been measured by his remarkable numbers. But without spectacular goaltending for the first time in Toronto, the wins aren't there and neither are the numbers. He will be paid to go away.
- The commencement of the John Ferguson watch. Ferguson was hired on the cheap by Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment Ltd., and it's clear the company is getting what it paid for. Quinn, never a Ferguson fan, is certainly less of one every time he looks at his roster. Each may end up being burned for the other's displeasure and lack of performance. He should be paid to go away.
And the very same company that hired Ferguson as a compromise candidate -- Quinn wanted Steve Tambellini, Ken Dryden wanted Neil Smith, so smiling Richard Peddie settled on neither of them and wound up with Ferguson -- recently paid seven times what Ferguson earns to come up with a new GM for the Raptors.
Are the Leafs about to go the more expensive route?
The roster utilized last night and some of the decisions involved were telling enough. Take Luke Richardson, for example. The Leafs did at the trade deadline for reasons still unexplained.
The Leafs then paired Richardson with Aki Berg to form the Toronto version of Done and Doner. Richardson and Berg were victimized on the first Montreal goal four minutes and 35 seconds in. If that wasn't bad enough, for whatever reason, Leafs defensive coach Rick Ley didn't bother to change that pair after the goal by Chris Higgins.
Twelve seconds later, Berg and Richardson were twisted like pretzels again and the Canadiens led 2-0.
Another defence pair was Alexander Khavanov, a Ferguson discovery, and Belak, a Quinn loyalist. No team in the NHL could expect to be successful with a backline of Khavanov, Belak, Berg and Richardson -- all of them seventh defencemen on stronger teams.
And with that kind of defence, Mikael Tellqvist -- nice guy but small goalie, who wasn't sharp last night -- looked at times overwhelmed by Les Canadiens.
The truth on the Leafs' playoff chase: They are closer to 13th place than they are to eighth. While the Canadiens moved five points ahead of the Leafs last night, the Atlanta Thrashers came back to win in overtime and are six points ahead of Toronto.
So, there the Leafs sit, six points out of eighth place, just four points ahead of 13th- place Boston. The Leafs are edging closer to the bottom than the top, which is fine for draft position, not for playoff revenue.
Winning starts at the top. It always does. Just not here. Just not now. Just not during this lost season.

Here is the second part of my three-part series of interviews with Jim Callis of Baseball America.
I asked Jim if both prep players, shortstop Manny Machado and pitcher Jameson Taillon are available when the Orioles select third in the draft on Monday, which player would he take?
"I'd take Taillon. Either one would be a fine pick, but I think Taillon's ability is more rare than Machado's. Nothing wrong with a possible five-tool shortstop, though," Callis said.
Machado is considered the top prep position player and Taillon is considered the clear top high school pitcher and maybe the best pitcher among all players.
Machado is a 6'2, 180-pound right-handed hitter from Miami's Brito High. He hit over .600 as a junior and batted .367 last summer for the USA under 18 national team. He is a Scott Boras client.
The 6'6", 225-pound Taillon went 8-1, 1.78 in 11 games for the Woodlands High in Texas this year. Over 62 innings, he walked 21 and fanned 114. He is represented by the Hendricks brothers.
He has a mid 90's fastball that has touched 99 and a power curve, both considered clear plus pitches.
Here is Callis' take on Taillon:
"I don't think there are any concerns with him. Talking to area scouts in Texas, they wonder if he is better than Josh Beckett was, that's how good they say this kid is.
"He has the best stuff of any pitcher in this draft, college or high school. He's got a mid 90's fastball that can be electric. Guys tell you his curve ball is an even better pitch, that it's even more devastating.
"He can be a little inconsistent at times, like some high school guys are. He doesn't throw a changeup much, because that would only be giving the hitters a chance.
"He needs some polish, like any high school pitcher does. But he's a big kid at 6'6" and you don't have to project him, because his stuff is already great. The delivery is pretty easy and he's pretty co-ordinated for a big guy. He's a pretty complete package.
"I think for a high school pitcher, he can get there pretty quick. Whoever takes him probably doesn't sign him until August 15th, because he is not going to sign for slot. But it wouldn't surprise me if he's in the big leagues sometimes toward the end of the 2012 season.
"We saw how quickly Porcello made it to the big leagues and he's been good for the Tigers. This guy has better stuff than Porcello does."
That's a pretty impressive scouting report that might leave most O's fans hoping he is still on the board when their turn comes up Monday night, not long after seven o'clock.
Here is an earlier story I posted with comments from Jim Callis.
More draft coverage coming: Consider my blogs to be draft central over the next few days. Check the archives for other recent draft stories and coming up between now and the draft will be more stories with Jim Callis and Joe Jordan, plus an interview with Michael Taillon, Jameson's dad.
I will provide any updates I get on the O's possible first pick over the next several days and Monday check out this site often for some special draft-day coverage.
During our coverage this coming Monday afternoon, I'll be taking calls live on-air here through our MASNSports.com website, so I look forward to talking with many of you then. Stay tuned!

Mr Johnson will also call on independent faith schools to demonstrate their charitable status by co-operating more closely with "non-faith schools". Last night the government formally unveiled plans to enable councils to require new religious schools to select up to 25% of their intake from pupils of other faiths or none.
Mr Johnson will tell the National Children and Adult Services Conference in Brighton: "We must be careful that, rather than driving people into defending their faith, we instead encourage an open celebration of our diversity. Schools should cross ethnic and religious boundaries, and certainly not increase them, or exacerbate the difficulties in this sensitive area.
"Building on the agreement signed earlier in the year by all the faith groups to teach each other's religion ... I want to see teachers exchange between different religious schools, so pupils and teachers are exposed to ... different faiths."

The Gloryland Way
July 14, 2013
*Way- habit, road, course, route, system, track, method, walk, approach, technique, procedure, trail, path, progress.
There are many different "ways". Some examples:
Chitter found the two little grouse above hiding out of the way.
A local farmer on his way to the hay field.
The straight and narrow way.
If you fall asleep while hunting, you may find yourself in a bad way.
The wrong way.
Way up the mountain.
Ruby Sue is always in the way.
And for this weeks Pickin & Grinnin In The Kitchen Spot: The Gloryland Way.
J.S. Torbett was born in 1868 and lived until 1940. Torbett was a singing school teacher for 35 years, and he wrote The Gloryland Way.
I hope you enjoyed the Pickin and the Grinnin. So what way are you in, on, or at?

Back in the day when we had 2 piano players at church, I always liked to hear the organ played along with this song. It seemed to add another degree of pretty to it. As usual, great job. I don't think yall ever hit a bad note.
To reply to Don's comment, yep! Adding an "s" to "way" is something I grew up with in MA, and also something I heard folks say when I lived in CO. In fact, I hear it often in a sort of doubled-up use, such as, "We'd like to have gone to that fair last Saturday, but it's such a long ways away!"
I'm on my way to get a fudgesicle. LOL
God bless.
I also wanted to add that I enjoyed the song. I love your family's music and it brings back alot of memories from way back.
Hi Tipper, I'm way out of touch. Hope you will forgive me. It has been a busy summer. I've probably used way in each one of these. Don't know how else to talk..lol.
Don, we also use way and ways here in Iowa. You go on up the road a ways or we had to go a long ways out of our way to get there. Funny how one thinks some of these are regional and they are not.
Hi Tipper,sure enjoyed the music.How about The Way,Acts 9:2 God Bless.Jean
Mark Simos wrote a tune called Way Cool, after someone said it in a jam, way back when I knew him, way too many years ago. there are many ways to play it. sometimes the easy way is best, no two ways about that. By the way, Although I know little about the ways of genius fiddlers, this post is, in some small way, a tribute to him and others like him that I have met along the way. I have a ways to go until I can play like that. Another beautiful tune called Ways of the World still seems way beyond me.
Enjoyed the photos and the music
today! Thank you
Hey, by the way, I like all the different ways to use way. Of course, there is another way to spell this word and it is weigh. Humm! I think we have a couple of homonyms. Good lesson for today! Happy Sunday!
It might be a little ways back, but
Paul, Pap and the boys still sound
How about she's in the way, as in pregnant.
how about I'm way too busy......(NOT - but I should be)
Loved the music, as per usual :)
Hearing the song was a great way to begin my online day. Going to be awhile til I get all the ways I use the word 'way' out of my head. I recall as a teenager listening to a Charlotte radio station with the name BIG WAYS. Government has ways and means committees. I've been way late, waylaid, sometimes way out of line, had my head way up in the clouds.....
It's funny how this post made me think about how Mom and her family used the word. I don't recall ever hearing them say 'pregnant'. They always said, "I can't believe she's thata way again."
Don, I grew up a right smart ways from NC, but still talk the same way youins do.
The music put me in a happy way and we will soon be on our way to church. Hope you can find a way to have a wonderful day!
I'm on my way to Church.. Good job on the music as always.. such a talented family..
Great job, as usual on a great song.
Loved hearing "I'm in the Gloryland Way" by Pap, Paul and the others! Way to go! And I mean more than the music and the title of the song by this statement!
Kat-I'm sorry! Sometimes Facebook does that to me too! If you haven't already-you could try pasting the link to the video onto your facebook page-as a status instead of using the share button. If you want to try it here is the link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTbqN_9wDsYHopefully that will work-or the glitch will work itself out before next time : )
Blind Pig The Acorn
Celebrating and Preserving the
Culture of Appalachia
In no way is she like her mother! or He has a way with dogs. or What he said was out of the way. He had his way with her!!!!! Oh no.
Something that we do here in the mountains which seems to me to be unique is to use ways instead of way, especially when modified by an adjective denoting extent.
"Don't quit on me now - it's just a little ways on up to the top."
"I turned down the wrong holler off that ridge and came out a long ways from where I meant to."
It would be interesting to see if some folks who aren't from over our way do the same thing.
No way, it would never rain this many days in a row! ....Way!
The boys are looking younger.
Loved the song and post but it put me in a bad way when i tried to post it to my fbk. page from u tube. A message came up saying that flash objects must have the source and pictures attributs. Don't know what that means but popped up again when i tried it on some other of your videos.
The way less traveled
Love the music.

At that price - IMO yes.
Is the EDT version any good? A local shop has it for $25. I've never tried any version of Bandit, but I heard its a good leather fragrance. Should I buy this or pass?
At that price - IMO yes.
Buy immediately. Bandit is a wonderful green leather, s&m, strong, bitter, very distinctive. You need to like green and leather, of course, but at those prices, you can always keep it for reference. There could be subtle differences in vintage and concentration, but what I've smelled so far, edt or edp, is always good.
Now, is it anywhere close to where I live so I can stock up myself?
alright. Good enough for me. . First impression coming up.
It's a very dry, bitter, green, aldehydes, leather. The leather here is not like Tuscan Leather nor Cuir Ottoman, FYI. Nevertheless, it's still a very well made fragrance. Get it!
Yup, I remember the EDT having a bit more galbanum and the EDP being more resinous.
depends on which version it is. i don't think there is a recent edt. if it's a clear glass bottle with a black label like in the pictures, buy immediately. these bottle type have been around for a long time, and it's vintage bandit in a great shape, the way cellier intended it.
if it's not this type, beware. while the more recent formula's are good, they don't come in edt. and before that, we have seen some pretty bad stuff under the name bandit. not recommended!
It was Marlene Dietrich's signature scent
... gotta love the Bandit!
I only own - and know - the EdP, though!
i am not entirely sure if there was one, but i think i've encountered an edt from the 90's. the stuff is rather rare. there seem to have been several owners to the name since that time, and probably as many different bandits. they where not very successful, and sometimes they gave a entirely new twist to the name bandit (smelling nothing like the original, and being bad perfumes).
i haven't got a picture, just wanted to make sure the op is aware of this 90's scam.
to the op: if it's the one from the pictures, buy several bottles. it's most likely a once in a lifetime opportunity.
The one I picked up comes in the black packaging with a black bottle. I'll try and post a picture later, but it looks the same as the current EDP except that it has a gold cap.
There are a few articles that I found that discuss this EDT in a little more detail:
Ahh - I'm talking about the most recent formulation in black bottles! Don' know which concentration it is said to be.
I got the edt and the parfum. I must say the the parfum is my favorite concentration...so far (I haven't tried the edp.) The parfum so green, a bit soapy, and smooth. The leather is minimal, but it's there. It's a subtle leather scent for spring, as it reminds me of that season. The edt is ok, but harsher with the rubbery/leathery thing up front. Edt reminds me of Halloween.
A screaming deal at $25, and well worth having, if even only as a reference smell.
A couple of years ago, I found a little shop online that was selling bandit in all 3 concentrations, each around $30, so I bought all 3. They all came in black bottles (technically very dark purple). The caps vary, but the EdT did have a (cheap looking) gold cap, whereas the EdP has a shiny black cap. The extrait has a clear ground-glass stopper with gold thread seal. Very classy looking.
Interestingly, only the EdP had a sticker on the box that stated that (paraphrased here)this particular EdP formulation is 100% faithful to the spirit of the original formula, and was personally approved by Germaine Cellier (the nose behind the original formula). Based on what I've read, I'm a little skeptical, especially considering that Cellier died DECADES ago, long before this reformulation happened.
In any case, I figure that if Piguet (or should I say: the holding company that now owns the brand) is comfortable enough staking his reputation on this reformulation, that's good enough for me.
For what it's worth, I DID compare it to a vintage sample, and it was very close. I could detect a difference, but it was subtle, and I can't honestly say that the vintage was inherently BETTER...just slightly different. As I recall, the vintage had a bit more of that almost acrid 'marijuana smoke and burnt rubber' accord.
The EdT was faithful to the other formulations, though a bit more transparent, and an ever-so-slightly different balance of some of the notes.
In any case, it is still a unique and very good fragrance, in any concentration.
i've seen black bottles looking almost identical to ones of the recent formulas, they had a signed guarantee, bla bla, and the perfume smells not like bandit. where's the galbanum overdose? and what's this big, sweet ambery accord doing there instead? it isn't a bad perfume, but it surely isn't what they tell you either.
so much for trusting these marking ploys. unless we're dealing with fake bandits here, but who on earth would go through all the trouble and produce fake bandit tester bottles that don't even smell like bandit to begin with? i don't think that's the case here.
btw. the difference between the bottles? none, except that the label is a bit smaller in size, and the letters slightly fatter. there is another good and recent formula that has some letters not in capitals, if i remember correctly it reads BANDIT De ROBERT PIGUET instead of BANDIT DE ROBERT PIGUET.
@gido, I really appreciate all of your input. I may have to acquire a vintage sample eventually and test it against what I bought.
Oops, missed the follow up from months ago!
To test my memory, I revisited the concentration comparison. Sprayed EdT on one wrist and EdP on the other.
Well, skin me alive and roll me in rock salt, they are noticeably different!
Again, not comparing them to the vintage formulation, but to each other:
They both have the same primary leather note, and the EdT is not much less strong than the EdP, but the supporting notes is where they diverge slightly...
The EdT (huge gaudy gold cap) has a soapy floral note, and is a bit greener overall, BUT seems harsher / rough around the edges.
The EdP (smaller shiny black cap) has an underlying oriental/amber accord, sweeter and smoother.
So, Gido, I see what you mean. But judging them only against each other, I prefer the EdP, but then again, I love orientals and dislike green soapy florals in general, so no surprise there.
It definitely isn't the same fragrance it was in 1944 or whatever, but still good, and still a bargain at $30, in any concentration.
does it feature a powerful sandalwood note?
isnt it the same which is orange blossom/jasmine powerhouse...? i think it smells quite intensely feminine.. if you are like most here who don't care a damn about whether a scent smells feminine or not - then, you must go for it..

The leather note is very similar to the one in Knize Ten Golden Edition (and possibly even Cuir Mauresque), though greener and not sweet.
If you've never tried it, Bandit Shower Gel is amazing. The mixture of leather, green and hot steam in a shower is a fantastic combination!
"When you become comfortable with uncertainty. infinite possibilities open up in your life"
-- Eckhart Tolle
i agree about the shower gel. it's especially good if you have the same edition perfume to go with it, afterwards.
The shower gel is also wonderful? Another thing to buy then. I have the body lotion and it is perfect, like the perfume. Persistent too. (Unlike, say, Knize Ten bath products, that are weaker and less interesting than the scent).
Now, if they only did the bath oil as well ...
i have to agree again, i was disappointed with the knize ten shower gel, too. especially in the beginning, it was not what i had expected. it's a very incomplete rendering of the knize ten shape, and remarkably weak (especially compared to the powerful knize ten toilet water.) after that i accepted it for what it is, just a nice shower gel. but i probably won't buy it again.

Hannah Anderson has made her first public appearance since an Amber Alert set off a nationwide search that led to her rescue in Idaho after being abducted outside San Diego.
"In the beginning, I was a victim. But now knowing everyone out there's helping me, I consider myself a survivor instead," she said. "My mom raised me to be strong."
Anderson, 16, was spotted by horseback riders in the Idaho backcountry, and her captor James Lee DiMaggio died in the FBI shootout that followed.
DiMaggio's house had been burned with Hannah's mother and brother inside, though authorities say the two had been tortured and killed prior to the fire.
In response to speculation about a number of texts and letter she exchanged with DiMaggio, known to Anderson and her 8-year-old brother as Uncle Jim, she said they "weren't anything bad."
The day of the abduction, DiMaggio was supposed to pick her up from cheerleading practice. She had texted him directions to the school, and told him she'd be in the gym waiting for him, rather than out front.
In letters discovered by authorities, Anderson had written to DiMaggio seeking advice for difficulties in her relationship with her mother.
"Me and him would talk about how to deal with it," she said. "And I'd tell him how I felt about it. And he helped me through it," Anderson said. "They weren't anything bad. They're just to help me through tough times."
The DiMaggio family called for DNA tests on Hannah and her brother Ethan, alleging one or both of them could have been fathered by James.
The family said they wouldn't understand why else a life insurance policy DiMaggio had taken out listed the boy and his paternal grandmother as beneficiaries
But an Anderson family representative dismissed the rumors, saying "Brett Anderson's DNA was used to identify the body of his dead son Ethan Anderson," in a statement. "Brett and Tina Anderson did not meet Mr. DiMaggio until the sixth month of Tina's pregnancy with Hannah."
One search warrant described Hannah's mother as the wife of DiMaggio's "best friend." Authorities have not released any suspected motive for the killings and abduction.
Anderson said "he had a gun and threatened to kill me and anyone who tried to help."
Hannah did not know what an Amber Alert was before she found out about her rescue efforts. She credits the system with helping those horseback riders all the way in Idaho alert authorities.

Eurozone services sector growth slows again
Growth in the eurozone services sector slowed again in June to hit an 8-month low, while business confidence slipped to its lowest level in two years, a survey suggests.
The closely-watched Markit PMI Services index fell to 53.7 from 56.0 in May. Any reading above 50 indicates growth.
Growth in France eased "sharply", while the services sector contracted in Italy, Markit said.
Business confidence fell in Germany, France, Italy and the Irish Republic.
In Spain, however, it improved slightly.
Outside the eurozone, the UK service sector PMI edged up to 53.9 in June from 53.8 in May.
Higher costs
"Domestic demand continued to stymie services growth across the region's peripheral countries, reflecting a combination of economic uncertainty and deficit-reducing austerity measures," said Chris Williamson, chief economist at Markit.
He said France and Germany continued to drive eurozone growth.
"But with manufacturing growth having slowed sharply in both these countries in June, the concern is that services activity could also trend downwards in coming months," he said.
Germany and France were, however, the only two countries in the eurozone to record jobs growth in the service sector.
Markit also reported that input costs for service providers "rose markedly" in June.

MeetingPoint -- An H.323 conferencing server that can link virtually any multimedia client
MeetingPoint 3.5 is based on the H.323 conferencing standard, which means that any H.323 client -- Microsoft NetMeeting, Intel ProShare or TeamStation, PictureTel LiveLAN, or the aforementioned White Pine CU-SeeMe -- can connect to a MeetingPoint server and take part in a videoconference. Multimedia conferencing is one of those stealth applications that has its roots among casual users but has since emerged as a powerful tool for corporate use. In the case of MeetingPoint from White Pine Software (the firm that gave commercial life to CU-SeeMe) videoconferencing and collaboration is made easy and reliable with a powerful software-only solution -- reliable enough to make it a prime-time player in the corporate world.
Also, since MeetingPoint conforms to the newer H.323 conferencing standard, it can work entirely on a simpler software level -- there's no need to invest in a much more costly hardware-dependent H.320 videoconferencing system. Working in multicast format, MeetingPoint sends one stream of data over the network to be shared by multiple users.
Videoconferencing eats up a lot of bandwidth -- even in these days of 56K connections and a proliferation of T1 lines -- and MeetingPoint addresses this issue by controlling how much video and audio traffic is allowed on the network. Bandwidth controls can also be applied to individual conferences or even individual users. In addition, users can't crash a conference, as authentication services can be applied.
MeetingPoint also supports multiple servers, so conferences can be shared and outgoing data can be load balanced on the network. MeetingPoint conforms to the following standards: H.323 and CU-SeeMe communications standards, G.711 and G.723 audio standards, H.261 and H.263 video standards, T.120 data sharing standards, and H.323 management standards. Since it conforms to H.323 management standards, you can use a third-party gatekeeper for call management instead of the supplied MeetingPoint Gatekeeper.
Administration is done via a browser-based interface that is used to administer individual conferences and user access (which is stored in a separate database). In addition, user authentication, billing, and time tracking can be set up with any RADIUS authentication server. Conference and network statistics can be viewed in real time. MeetingPoint can also work in conjunction with a Web server: currently supported are Microsoft's Internet Information Server (IIS) on Windows NT or Apache on Sun Solaris.
MeetingPoint also gives users the ability to set up their own conferences via the Java-based MeetingPlanner, which schedules meetings and notifies participants of upcoming meetings via automatic e-mail invitation. Users can connect to multiple sites on an audio level as well, with both silence detection and background noise suppression enabled. In addition, users can choose which participant to watch and hear via the Java-based H.323 VideoSwitcher.
With a price tag between $8,995 and $15,995, MeetingPoint isn't exactly for smaller operations. But giving users the ability to videoconference over existing data networks and via the Internet -- as opposed to shelling out big bucks for airline fares -- is a compelling argument in the business world, and any corporation or university would do well to begin or continue their videoconferencing efforts with MeetingPoint.
Pros: Browser-based management; extensive control over bandwidth; RADIUS compatibility
Cons: Load balancing must be done manually
New in v4.0:
MeetingPoint 4.0 includes add-on components for specialized functions including continuous presence, the ability to view multiple video windows simultaneously, and streaming media integration. Version 4.0 also includes full integration of the Labtam T.120 technology that White Pine purchased last year. This integration is said to improve the performance and scalability for data collaboration across networks.

TERRELL, Texas, June 27 (UPI) -- Charles E. Brownlow Jr. pleaded not guilty for four counts of murder stemming from an October 2013 shooting spree that left five people dead.
The 36-year-old is charged in the shooting deaths of his 61-year-old mother, his aunt and three additional people. In December, Brownlow was indicted for the murder of convenience store clerk Luis Gerardo Leal-Carillo, the final victim of the massacre. Brownlow was handed four additional capital murder charges in early June.
"Things are moving along smoothly in the case — it's on track," chief prosecutor Marc Moffitt said when Brownlow was charged. "Our team has been very active in working the case."
Brownlow pleaded not-guilty to the four new murder counts Friday. Although he is undergoing mental health treatment in jail, Brownlow's attorneys say he understands the charges facing him.
If convicted, Brownlow faces up to 99 years in prison, or the death penalty if the district attorney chooses to pursue it.

Property owners are responsible for maintaining safe conditions for people coming on or about their property. They are legally bound to provide a reasonably safe condition of property. If they are found to be negligent, property owners must pay the victim damages, which may include medical expenses, pain and suffering, loss of current and potential wages, and other damages.
At the law firm of Salvi, Schostok & Pritchard P.C., our premises liability attorneys take on cases in which property owners are found liable for injuries. Premises liability covers a comprehensive range of suits for injuries caused by a property owner's failure to warn, maintain and correct situations on public and private premises.
The most common premises liability cases involve individuals who slip, trip or fall because of a defect or hazard on another person's property. Examples:
There are three categories of property visitors the law recognizes:
The law differs in the state of Wisconsin, where there is a "recreational immunity statute." That law states that a property owner's liability for injuries to persons engaging in recreational activities on the property is very limited. Landowners who open up their land for recreational use are immune for any injuries that occur on their land during the recreational use. Recreational activity means any outdoor activity undertaken for the purpose of exercise, relaxation or pleasure. Examples of recreational activities are hunting, camping, bicycling, hiking, sledding, water sports. The statute attempts to include any outdoor sport, game or educational activity except organized team sport activities sponsored by the owner of the property.
There are exceptions to the immunity. The private property owner is not immune if the owner charges an admission fee for spectators and for a malicious act or by a malicious failure to warn against a known unsafe condition.
If you have been injured because of a condition of someone's property, it is important to document the condition in a way that will show the physical characteristics of the height, width, depth, and nature of the substance before someone goes out and repairs the condition.
Many times the owner of property, learning of an injury, will go out and conduct a repair. They do this for two reasons: to eliminate evidence, and to make sure no one else gets injured. Please, contact us today, we handle cases nationally with offices located in Illinois and Wisconsin. Salvi, Schostok & Pritchard P.C., is committed to protecting the rights of individuals, and we will put our experience and dedication to work for you.

The facts:
- Guild wars 2 uses a unique character name system
- Guild wars 2 discerns between account name and character name
- Account name can be repeated, character names must be unique
- Character names can be 19 letters long with as many spaces as it allows you to put, and must be at least 3 letters long
- You could reserve your character name if you had a GW1 character with such name before the 31st of July of this year if you linked accounts
- Reserved character names are liberated 2 days after release (?) if they're not claimed yet.
- HoM rewards calculator serves as a mild indication of whether your character name could have been reserved by someone owning GW1 already.
- GW1 names could not be single word, and could not have more than 1 space in it. with any amount of spaces as it allowed you to.
- And most importantly, it adds a layer of pressure to the player. I thought the philosophy behind the design of Guild Wars 2 is to make the game as enjoyable for the player as possible, well, now you must take into account that if you don't login the very first minutes after the servers open, you lose your chance to get that name you want for your character forever. Oh and remember more than a couple thousand of other players might be competing against you, so you'd better have fast PC with no internet problems... Because, and this is serious, names matter just as much as looks for some people.
- Unique name is an archaic feature, and to be honest there is no point on having unique names, sure, you'll see 500 "Legolas" but it's the same as seeing "Legolas" "Lego1as" "LEGOLAS" "l3601A5" or "jhsdfkhjksdjafnnkh" simply because that frustrated guy just gave up on getting a good name, believe me when I say both instances yield simply the same amount of unoriginal names. With non unique names at least you'll have a flexible system and might allow for fun match ups.
- Servers will get clogged with people trying to create characters to reserve their desired name, Anet implemented a timeout feature that prevents you from creating another character if you fail to obtain a unique name after certain amount of tries. This feels like unnecessary resources spent on making a limiting system for the sake of simply having this unique names system at place, it hinders the user experience, while feels like a bad design idea, instead of keep putting bandages on an always open wound, just cut the limb off already (remove this system)
- Personal identification: this serves mainly for RP purposes, nothing breaks immersion more than seeing someone with your same name (arguably seeing some called "jihfkajkfa" breaks immersion too) And having a name that you can identify yourself and knowing that nobody else can have that exact same name boosts your experience as a player. I see no rebutal to this argument, therefore I included it as a pro in my rant.

What to do on Sunday? Support The Bum Phillips Project.
In 1975, O.A. "Bum" Phillips became head coach of the Houston Oilers, one of the worst teams in the NFL at that time. Phillips quickly converted the Oilers into a winning franchise resulting in a "Shangri-La" era in the city of Houston and a citywide phenomenon of devoted fans dubbed "Luv Ya Blue". This humble hero's triumphs came with sacrifices, as his obsessions affected his relationship with his family. A devastating termination from the Oilers in 1980 propelled him toward a spiritual quest that he later said he had avoided his entire life. Sunday mornings, previously a time for football and the military (Phillips had enlisted after the events of Pearl Harbor on Sunday, December 7, 1941) became a time for church. As such, Bum Phillips uses the question, "What to do on a Sunday?" as a unifying principle in which to examine themes relevant to contemporary audiences, such as ethics, family, faith, and happiness.
Monk Parrots, a New York-based nonprofit performing arts organization is fundraising to produce a world premiere operatic work inspired by the life of retired National Football League coach, O.A. "Bum" Phillips.

The Steins Collect, on view at The MET through June 3 2012.
Gertrude Stein, her brothers Leo and Michael, and Michael's wife Sarah were important patrons of modern art in Paris during the first decades of the twentieth century. This exhibition unites some two hundred works of art to demonstrate the significant impact the Steins' patronage had on the artists of their day and the way in which the family disseminated a new standard of taste for modern art. The Steins' Saturday evening salons introduced a generation of visitors to recent developments in art, particularly the work of their close friends Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso, long before it was on view in museums.
On view through June 3, 2012.

The Hispanic Garden, located in the heart of the St. Augustine's Spanish Quarter Village, will reopen with limited use, says the St. Augustine Foundation, Inc.
The garden, closed last summer by the foundation, had undergone an extensive archaeological dig as the foundation pondered its future.
Since summer, questions have arisen as to what the foundation's plans were for the property, including the possibility of a historically reconstructed building on the site.
Friday evening, Flagler College President William L. Proctor ended the speculation on the property located at St. George and Hypolita Streets.
Proctor is president of the St. Augustine Foundation which owns the property.
In his statement given to The Record, he said the foundation's current plans are to re-establish a garden on the site. ''The area will be secured; however, arrangements for the use of the garden by government, civic or private groups will be possible,'' Proctor's statement said.
Proctor's statement said a preliminary report of the recent archaeological dig did not produce significant artifacts. University of Florida archaeologists conducted the dig and found evidence of American, British, Spanish and Native American cultures.
The garden began in 1965 and was formally opened in May 1967. A lengthy fund-raising campaign led by then-Restoration Commission member Mrs. C. Daughtry (Elizabeth M.) Towers Sr., secured $52,342.32 for its construction.
Bill Adams, the city's director of historic preservation and heritage tourism, said Saturday he had not heard of the foundation's plan to reopen the garden. ''It sounds like a very good plan,'' Adams said after being told of Proctor's announcement. ''I really applaud the foundation for putting it back.''
The garden also included the donation of a bronze statue of Spain's Queen Isabella by sculptor Anna Hyatt Huntington. The statue has been in the city's care since the garden was closed.
Adams said the city owns the statue because it was given to the community by the sculptor. He said the foundation's plan to re-establish the garden would prompt him to recommend the city put the statue back, or a replica of it. Adams is leaning toward a replica being made. ''Queen Isabella really belongs in the garden,'' he said.
Last summer, city officials had talked of holding a meeting with Proctor to determine if the property could be sold to the city.
But the foundation is prohibited by a court-ordered settlement of a 1989 lawsuit from selling the property. And if the foundation dissolves, the state of Florida gets control, the settlement says.
The lawsuit was brought by the state restoration commission, which had also changed its name to the Historic St. Augustine Preservation Board. The board sued the foundation questioning its right of ownership and management of several historic properties given in the name of the restoration program.
In 1990, the preservation board was dissolved by the state and then re-created in 1991. In 1993, the lawsuit was assigned to Circuit Court Judge William Johnson of Volusia County. He ordered the state and the foundation into mediation.
That mediation was the start of the process of negotiations for settlement, said Frank Stockton, representing Florida's Department of State in 1994 when the settlement was reached.
The court-ordered settlement included acknowledgement that there was no wrong-doing or mismanagement on the part of the foundation. The judge's order also prevents the foundation from selling or mortgaging any of the properties it owns and gives the properties to the state if the foundation dissolves.
Those properties include the Hispanic Garden, the Pan American Building, Oliveros House, Ortega House, Villalonga House, Acosta House, and the Santoya House.
Proctor said in 1994, that the settlement reaffirmed the foundation's position that the properties were properly managed and maintained. He also reiterated that the foundation had no intention of selling or mortgaging any of the properties.
The foundation was chartered on Jan. 24, 1962 as St. Augustine Restoration, Inc. The organization was set up to become the private fund-raising arm for the state-created St. Augustine Restoration Commission.
Earle Newton, then executive director of the commission, said the state agency did not have a means to provide funds for the maintenance or the purchase of properties for restoration. So, the private foundation was started.
''The state never owned the foundation,'' said Newton in an interview last week.
Newton said that in the early years of the foundation, the foundation board was the same as the restoration commission. But that changed in 1974 when the foundation's name was changed to St. Augustine Restoration, Inc. A separate board was set up. In 1984, a subsequent name change was recorded and the foundation became known as the St. Augustine Foundation, Inc.
In addition to Proctor, the foundation's officers and directors, as listed on its 2000 annual report to the Florida Department of State Division of Corporations are: Joan B. Young, secretary; Kenneth Russom, treasurer; and Frank D. Upchurch and John D. Bailey, directors. John D. Bailey Jr., is listed as the foundation's registered agent on its annual not-for-profit foundation report to the state.

When it comes to measuring the health of a country's economy, using the nation's Gross Domestic Product is often the barometer of choice. But as more dollars change hands, why aren't the outcomes always better?
There's a new listing of 132 countries out today that uses 54 different indicators that together measure how well a country is doing in giving its citizens good lives. It's called the Social Progress Index. Michael Green, CEO of the Social Progress Imperative, says that although GDP is important, it doesn't tell the whole story.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Elizabeth Stone House, Inc., Jamaica Plain, MA, USA
The past two summers, I have backpacked for 3 days in the White Mountains in New Hampshire for a fundraiser called "Wilderness Heals" in support of the Elizabeth Stone House. I would like to share a short story about one of the women who spoke to all of the hikers the morning that we began the three day hike through the White Mountains. This woman is someone who has been helped by the Elizabeth Stone House in the past and is living proof that with encouragement and support, anyone can remove themselves from a domestic abuse situation.
She began her speech with tears (happy ones of course) and spoke of how much the Stone House means to her. She said many things of which I can't remember word for word but there were three statements that she made that stuck out to me.
"The Elizabeth Stone House was able to provide me with a Christmas present for my son."
"The Elizabeth Stone House provided me with a bus ticket every day so I could get back and forth to work."
These two statements show that the women who come to the Stone House are just looking for some kind of normalcy after being in violent situations for so long. They want their children to look back and have happy memories of their childhood instead of violent ones. They are not looking for a handout so that they can just sit around and do nothing; they want to better the lives of themselves and their children.
The last statement the woman made is something that will stay with me forever and brings tears to my eyes as I think about it. I've never heard anyone say this so simply yet so powerfully:
"There are those who need help and those who can help"
I believe it's true for everyone; at times we may need help and other times we have the means and can help.
The Elizabeth Stone House is the ONLY OPTION for many of these women and children. There is no place else to go. Organizations like these are shutting down left and right due to budget cuts. The Stone House is one of the last of its kind in the area.

RANCHO SANTA FE — Jason Barry stood at the entrance to a massive $16 million home, greeting onlookers and potential buyers.
Barry, a real estate agent who specializes in luxury homes, was encouraged by the amount of foot traffic at the open house, likely more than there would have been a year or two ago. It was another signal in his book that high-end home sales are coming back in Rancho Santa Fe.
Rancho Santa Fe isn't alone. Across California, million-dollar plus home sales are at their highest level in five years, according to a report from DataQuick released two months ago. Luxury home sales are up 19 percent this year compared with last year. That's better than the average, as sales across all price points are up 10 percent.
The high-end home trend has played out locally.
"It's interesting looking at last year compared to now with a community like the (Rancho Santa Fe) Covenant as an example," Barry said. "Last year, there were 139 homes for sale. This year at the same time, there are 100 homes for sale. You've seen inventory decrease as you've seen activity increase."
But Barry said that price per square foot hasn't jumped yet in Rancho Santa Fe. Indicators show that could be happening soon though, he said.
"It's the basic rule of supply and demand that's tied into this increase in activity," Barry said.
Indeed, state figures show prices inching up as well, according to DataQuick. Buyers of million-dollar plus homes paid on average $632 per square foot, up two percent from last year.
Barry noted that luxury home prices were among the hardest hit of all price points during the downturn, meaning there's a steeper hill to climb for a market correction. Yet he feels "we turned the corner."
"We were thinking back in 2009 and 2010 that we were hitting bottom," Barry said. "When in fact we were continuing to drift a little lower. It looks to us as though we hopefully have been pointed back in a positive direction."
The reduction in inventory largely explains why less high-end buyers are waiting on the sidelines, Barry said. Another factor is that credit is more accessible than it was during the peak of the economic downturn. He said that's more likely to benefit buyers at lower price points, but some purchasing luxury homes are taking out loans. Because credit is so cheap right now, some take out loans to free up money that can be in turn invested in the market, earning a higher rate of return than it would sitting in the bank.
When asked whether he predicts the luxury market to slowly increase or shoot up quickly, Barry answered: "I wouldn't be surprised to see either."
Jane Foster, a real estate agent who focuses on million-dollar plus homes in North County, said that the market for higher-end homes is slowly improving. Tepid job growth and high rates of foreclosure, however, continue to be challenges for all price points, she said.
And locals might have a more difficult time finding housing due to more investment firms and foreign individuals entering the market.
"There's some negatives, but reason to be optimistic," Foster said. "But I don't expect huge price jumps in the very near future."
At the open house, San Diego resident Julie Dean said she's actively searching to buy a home. She noted the $16 million home is outside her price range, but is looking for a home in the million-dollar plus range.
"I haven't been looking long enough to see an increase in prices or competition myself," Dean said. "But I hear that it's getting more common to buy — more people are buying before prices rise."

READING, Pa. -- The seeds of the idea were sown in the form of a class assignment: Penn State Berks student teachers were asked to develop a project that they could give their elementary school students to make a difference in their school. Senior childhood and early elementary education majors Melissa Sauer and April Moore put their heads together and the idea of creating a garden at Glenside Elementary School took root.
But Sauer and Moore didn't stop there. They were so excited that they approached their teacher, Jessica Schocker, assistant professor of social studies education and women's studies, about making their Social Studies Methods class project a reality. Both Sauer and Moore were already student teaching at Glenside and were more than willing to volunteer their time and talent to see the project through.
Schocker approached Melissa Fisher, principal of Glenside Elementary School and Penn State alumna, who enthusiastically agreed to the garden project.
However, the one thing that Sauer and Moore did not have was expertise in agriculture. This is where Mahsa Kazempour, assistant professor of science education, and her biology class got involved.
Kazempour's biology students are supporting the garden project as part of their service learning. Approximately 15 students have been working with Sauer and Moore helping with the garden while learning about environmental education.
In addition, Penn State Berks sophomore agricultural science major Alex Burghardt is working on this project as Schocker's student in educational psychology, as an honors option. Schocker put Burghardt in touch with Sauer and Moore so he could help to meet his honors requirements through service-based research while advising what flowers and vegetables to plant in the garden, including a golden rain tree.
Schocker also applied for and received funding from the college's Beaver Community Service Endowment to cover the cost of materials and supplies for the garden project.
Soon, the project took on a life of its own as more students – and parents – wanted to get involved. Senior childhood and early elementary education majors Emily Pufnock and Bethany Connors, student teachers at Glenside, joined the project with their students.
The kindergarten students painted stones, first-graders painted birdhouses, and third-graders painted tires and planted seeds, beans and flowers.
How has this project benefitted the students of Glenside Elementary School? According to Sauer, "Some of the shyest, most withdrawn students are the most involved in the garden. It's meaningful for the students to have something to do, that they care about and are engaged with."
After school and during some weekends, weather permitting, the elementary school children, parents, student teachers, Schocker and Fisher can be found working on the garden project. Future gardening dates include April 23, 28 and 30, from 3:15 to 4:15 p.m., and Saturday, April 26, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
All their hard work will culminate in a garden party for the elementary school children and their parents, 2-4 p.m. Saturday, May 3. The rain date is 12-2 p.m. Sunday, May 11.

At Last.. European Films on Road to Egyptian Venues
The EU has signed an agreement with Egyptian distributors and screening venues under which European films will be regularly screened as of next September.
The agreement ends the American film monopoly on the cinema market in Egypt, which will be open to various European cultures, and movies that were never screened except through the cultural centers and festivals.
Critic Wajih Khairi, advisor to the company which signed the agreement with the EU, told the daily al Ahram, "Indeed, the company signed an agreement with the EU in its capacity as the concerned agency for supporting the European and Mediterranean countries films. Earlier the company organized a commercial week for the French film in 1995, which achieved a big success. The idea was kept in our memory until the recent Cairo International Film Festival was held when representatives of the EU came to attend it. We agreed with them that the screening of the films should begin next September after the summer vacation and the Arabic film-screening season is over. The films will be subsidized by the EU after we purchase them from the distributor."
"The new experience is not easy as we are turning towards an audience who are used to American films and their style. We have plans to begin with the schools of the foreign communities in Egypt and their families and launching an intensive publicity campaign. We will start with comedy and action films, as they are more attractive to the Egyptian audience. The EU films are not real competitors for the American films because such films suffer in their own countries. The aim of screening the European films is to spread various cultures and see new type of movies, which the public is not used to. We will also organize European film weeks and invite directors and artists to hold conferences in order to discuss the artworks seen. These weeks will not be of cultural nature only, but also of commercial nature. Through this agreement we will be able to screen Tunisian, Lebanese, Syrian and Moroccan films in addition to becoming able to screen our films in Europe -- Albawaba.com

I will not be a doctor who thinks of my patients as patients; they are humans with stories, like me.
"It's so important for people to step back and really understand their communities so that we can change them for the better. My parents were both born in Mexico, but I grew up in the city limits of east L.A. I lived around a lot of immigrant families, going to schools that are 99 percent Hispanic. I remember being confused, noticing that I had an easier time than others because my parents were legal residents. In communities like this, you realize the importance of civic engagement.
"For my first service project in high school, a group of friends and I helped out with a city movement. East Los Angeles, which was an unincorporated part of the county, wanted to apply for cityhood, so we helped to involve and educate members of the community in terms of the voting process. Some people don't seem to worry about the problems around them, but I realized that it's so important for people to step back and really understand their communities so that we can change them for the better.
"My second semester here, I applied for a service learning trip in the Dominican Republic called B.A.C.E.S (Bucknell Advancing Communities, Educating & Serving). It has been my best experience at Bucknell by far. I already knew that I wanted to be a doctor, so it was exciting for me to go there and understand the healthcare needs of people in other parts of the world. It reinforced my future goal.
"I'm a pre-med student but I am trying to double major in psychology and Spanish. I don't want to go through a generic pathway that people might go through to get to medical school. I am really taking advantage of the liberal arts. My dream is to be a rheumatologist. I want to serve lower income communities where people don't necessarily have the means to interact with doctors. I feel as though knowing psychology and knowing how the mind and human interactions work will benefit me. I will not be a doctor who thinks of my patients as patients; they are humans with stories, like me."
