11:01 am: Update
Thomas X. Hardy will spend life in prison for the shooting death of Indianapolis police officer David Moore, a judge ruled today.
Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry issued this statement following the sentencing in an Indianapolis City-County Building courtroom:
"It is clear, based on our evidence and Thomas Hardy's acknowledgement in the plea documents he agreed to earlier this month, that Hardy senselessly and intentionally killed IMPD Officer David S. Moore while he was doing nothing more than performing his routine duties.
"Absent the resolution this office pursued based on the wishes of the Moore family, we were fully prepared to vigorously prosecute the case against Thomas Hardy, which included seeking the death penalty. Let me be clear: this office will not in any manner tolerate crimes against our community's law enforcement and public safety officers.
"As I have said from the beginning, Thomas Hardy's crime was a crime against our entire community. Nearly everyone in our city has felt the loss of this fine young man in some way. However, Jo and Spencer Moore, their family, and friends have shouldered this devastating loss with grace and dignity.
"Thomas Hardy will die in prison. He has the rest of his life to reflect upon his violent acts and the life he took from this family and our community. But David Moore's legacy will live on. We see him in the lives of those he saved through organ donations. We see him in the work of the foundation that bears his name. And we see it in the eyes of those who knew and wished they knew him. The sentencing of Thomas Hardy today gives Jo and Spencer Moore finality and certainty. I can only hope that it can help them continue to heal and find peace."
10:05 AM -- Mother tells killer she's 'horrified'
The mother of a slain Indianapolis Metropolitan police officer confronted her son's killer at his sentencing hearing this morning.
"I needed to tell you face to face, I'm really horrified that you executed my little boy," Jo Moore told Thomas Hardy from the witness stand.
Thomas Hardy later told the Moore family he still doesn't understand why he shot their son. "All I can say is, I'm sorry."
The courtroom was packed with IMPD officers and Public Safety Director Frank Straub attended the hearing.
Hardy, 61, pleaded guilty March 14 to shooting David Moore during a routine traffic stop in January 2011. His plea agreement, which Marion Superior Court Judge Mark Stoner approved last month, calls for him to serve life in prison without parole.
Earlier -- IMPD officer's killer to be sentenced today
The man who admitted to killing Indianapolis police officer David Moore will be sentenced today to life in prison.
Thomas X. Hardy, 61, pleaded guilty March 14 to shooting Moore during a routine traffic stop in January 2011. His plea agreement, which Marion Superior Court Judge Mark Stoner approved last month, calls for him to serve life in prison without parole.
In exchange for Hardy pleading guilty to murder, Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry agreed to drop the death penalty. Hardy also pleaded guilty to robbing a Dollar General store the morning of the shooting and being a felon in possession of a firearm.
It's uncertain whether Hardy will choose to address Moore's family and the court during his sentencing hearing.
Attorney Monica Foster, who represents Hardy, said in March that he pleaded guilty because he's sorry for the crime and wants to bring closure to Moore's family and his own.
Spencer and Jo Moore, Moore's parents, said they accepted Hardy's plea because it's what David would have wanted.
"What we felt was that once Mr. Hardy had asked for compassion from us, it was our duty to provide it," said Spencer Moore, a retired police officer. "By showing compassion, we actually honored (David) and honored the fellow officers."

Every Mickey birthday party has to have a Mickey cake or cupcakes. I couldn't just have a huge Mickey balloon pinata without any treats or Mickey Juice Boxes. I opted for cupcakes because I am definitely not a cake artist and let's face it cupcakes are way easier to make.
To make these Mickey Mouse cupcakes I used one box of Pillsbury Funfetti Cake Mix and icing. I noticed while baking these cupcakes that not all of them could have a nice rounded top because there was not enough batter. Instead of going out and buying another box of cake mix (I'm lazy) I decided to make two different types of Mickey cupcakes. One that used a rounded top and one that used a flat top.
For the flat topped cupcakes, they were baked per the box instructions and then iced. One whole Oreo cookie was placed on top of the icing and two Chocolate Melting Wafers were stuck in the icing for Mickey's ears. Thank you Lesser Homes and Gardens for the idea!
Inspiration for the rounded topped cupcakes came from Erica's Sweet Tooth. The rounded topped cupcakes were also iced but then were dipped into a fine powder of crushed Oreos. To crush the Oreos I removed all of their creme and double ziploc bagged the cookies. They were rolled over many times with a rolling pin until there was no lumps or anything. To not waste anything I added the creme from the Oreos to the cake mix batter. Tasted great! Again chocolate melting wafers were added for Mickey's ears and I hole punched white paper to make Mickey's buttons. For all of these cupcakes I suggest that you buy Red Foil Baking Cups otherwise Mickey's "pants" won't stay bright red. Made that mistake already.
Do you have a Mickey Mouse lover at home? I still remember the original Mickey Mouse Club. Things sure have changed.

3 Amazing Menswear Sales
For those unaware, Chums are currently running an amazing Summer clearance sale that offers up to 50% OFF products across ALL of their ranges – that includes menswear, ladieswear, homeware and lifestyle products. Amazing!
After spending a couple of hours browsing through their sale I realised that it's not your usual sale that's limited to products that don't sell very well.
Chums have slashed the prices for some fantastic and well known brands!
Slashed Menswear Prices
The Chums sale is very attractive to me because I LOVE a bargain and can't avoid that fact, much to my husband's displeasure, but it is what it is and I enjoy it.
Although the entire sale is amazing and I'd love to purchase all of the fabulous products that are stocked at the Chums store, it really is the Menswear section that lured me in as I love my clothes and, with Summer approaching, I'm in need of a new wardrobe.
Here are 3 great Menswear Sales:
Classic Check Shirt
This stunning check shirt is available in 3 colours – blue, oatmeal and lovat and can be purchased from just £15 which offers a massive saving of up to £13.
This is definitely a great buy and offers a unique, bright and Summery look for the beach or even just a long walk in the countryside. It's not too thick and hugs the body nicely offered a very comfortable fitting shirt at an amazing saving of £13.
Straw Trilby
Now from £12, this classic straw trilby offers the ultimate Summer comfort for the head and even offers some protection from the Sunshine to those who are sensitive to the UV rays, especially around the head and face. My grandad actually owns one of these and it's perfect protection from the sun, as an addition to sunblock of course.
You can grab the straw trilby in two different sizes and one colour.
Finally, how about a packet of two bowties to really add a touch of class to your Summer look? It's a look you can't go wrong with – everybody loves a bowtie!
A packet of two bowties from Chums cost just £5 offering a huge saving of £5 which on such a low priced product anyway is obviously a huge saving.

Phineas Fullman, born February 26, 1749, came to Chesterfield, from Westminster, Mass., about 1778. He married twice, first, Lucy Lampson, and second, Mrs. Bathsheba (Britton) Leach. He died August 4, 1823. His children were Paul, Asa, Lucy, Myra, Ellis and Almira. Asa, born February 24, 1780, married Lucena, daughter of Jonathan Farwell, in 1811. From May, 1815 to 1821, he engaged in trade at the Center Village, in partnership with Hon. Levi Jackson, afterwards with Ashbel Wheeler, Sr., and alone. For a number of years he run a freight-boat on the Connecticut, between Chesterfield and Hartford. He also erected a mill on Broad brook, for the manufacture of lumber. He was selectman in 1815. His wife died November 10, 1817, and his death occurred December 14, 1870 (Editor's Note: Highly unlikely death year as this would have Phineas dying at the ripe old age of 121). George Lampon, one of his three children, was born July 20, 1815, and married Persis S. Davis, of Holden, Mass., a teacher of music, February 20, 1850. He engaged in business with his father, on Broad brook, till their mill was burned, in July, 1853. when he removed to Lowell, Mass., where he remained eight years. He then returned to Chesterfield and rebuilt the mill. He is also a surveyor and musician.

The other week I moderated a Breast Cancer Symposium. What a great experience! I walked away with many lessons, and some new facts. When I was recruiting the doctors for the panel I was commonly asked about the topics. Now, people who were in attendance are asking for a list - so here are the main topics we discussed: (If you want a synopsis of the answers, or a complete list of questions please let me know.)
There has been a sharp decline in US breast cancer deaths. It is wonderful to see the rise in survivorship, and decline in mortality. What are some of the biggest contributors to this fact?Who should be screened for breast cancer along with how they should be screened? A topic often bringing up mixed opinions and debate in relation to age, and method.
Recently a study has been released showing a significant decline in women in their 40's getting annual mammograms. The sharpest decline being women age 50-64, and higher incomes. We need to change this. How can we as a community reverse the results and cause a rise to occur?
We are seeing breast cancer being diagnosed at earlier ages. We need to make sure we are educating young women. How do we, as a community, create programs of young activism and awareness with breast cancer?
ACS issued new guidelines recommending MRI's in conjunction with mammograms for certain women. Is this a practice we will be seeing more in our area?
In a recent publication, the New England Journal of Medicine reported that computer assisted detection using mammographies to identify breast cancer is less effective than previously thought. The study was met with some confusion. What can screening centers around the country do to help with the questions women have about their results?
Is genetic testing a topic we should be aggressively discussing with women who pose a greater risk? What exactly are the BRAC1 & BRAC2 genes?
Researchers have identified a key protein for the spread of ¼ of all breast cancers – the protein Akt1 could be a potential target for new drugs in stopping the spread of the disease. What does this really mean? Should we be watching this closely?
"The Deceptive Breast Cancer" – Inflammatory Breast Cancer. We need to improve the survival rate on this form of breast cancer. Though it is more rare, in speaking to women what do they need to know about the signs and symptoms?
A point that I find VERY interesting - every person in there (besides the doctors) thought it was the daughter who should be tested for BRCA1 & BRCA2. When, in fact, the mother should first be tested to see if she carries the gene.

Gas-Phase Detection of Trinitrotoluene Utilizing a Solid-Phase Antibody Immobilized on a Gold Film By Means of Surface Plasmon Resonance Spectroscopy
Abstract:A multilayered biosensor was constructed and found to detect trinitrotoluene (TNT) in ppb concentrations in air both prior to and after detonation of TNT without use of a liquid phosphate buffered saline (PBS) superstrate. The biosensor surface was fabricated from a monoclonal antibody for TNT covalently bound to an 11,11′-dithio-bis(succinimidoylundecanoate) (DSU) self-assembled monolayer immobilized on a thin gold film bonded to a BK7 glass slide. The binding between the immobilized antibody and TNT antigen was detected using surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy (SPRS). Biosensor specificity for TNT was demonstrated with chemical homologues as well as against an unrelated explosive, RDX.

+ - Controversial GCHQ Unit Engaged in Domestic Law Enforcement, Online propaganda ->
Advocatus Diaboli writes: The spy unit responsible for some of the United Kingdom's most controversial tactics of surveillance, online propaganda and deceit focuses extensively on traditional law enforcement and domestic activities — even though officials typically justify its activities by emphasizing foreign intelligence and counter-terrorism operations. Documents published today by The Intercept demonstrate how the Joint Threat Research Intelligence Group (JTRIG), a unit of the signals intelligence agency Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), is involved in efforts against political groups it considers "extremist," Islamist activity in schools, the drug trade, online fraud, and financial scams. Though its existence was secret until last year, JTRIG quickly developed a distinctive profile in the public understanding, after documents from NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden revealed that the unit had engaged in "dirty tricks" like deploying sexual "honey traps" designed to discredit targets, launching denial-of-service attacks to shut down internet chat rooms, pushing veiled propaganda onto social networks, and generally warping discourse online.

SO good! I love massaged kale salads - you should try massaging just the avocado, lemon and salt into the kale with your hands for a few minutes to soften the leaves and work the flavours in even more - SO much better than topping it with a dressing!ReplyDelete
OMG this looks so good! Can we make in Napa??ReplyDelete
massage and avocado in one sentence never sounded so good!ReplyDelete
I've Kale tasty and not so tasty.. but so far my favorite is it wilted with sauteed garlic and butter sauce with parm cheese! Amazing!ReplyDelete
I LOVE avocado on everything! Thanks for the fun recipe Anna.ReplyDelete

Kale just recently became a part of my life after I tried a recipe involving golden raisins, white balsamic and marcona almonds. I'm a new woman!ReplyDelete

She is professional, responsive and gives sound advice. I would use her again myself and recommend her to anyone looking to buy/sell in southern VT

Ratings & Reviews
Arlene is a professional. She was responsive, organized, knowledgeable and attentive to our project. We always felt that she was looking out for our best interest. Once in her hands, our property had an offer within a month and we closed in two...done. We were very happy with the whole process and highly recommend her services.
Arlene Palmiter was my "buyer's broker" when I purchased my home 16 years ago. My experience with Arlene was flawless, so when I recently put my house on the market, I chose Arlene to be my realtor. Arlene's knowledge of the housing market in the area, her expertise in marketing the property and her superior communication and negotiating skills set her apart from the other realtors. It's no surprise that her agency is number one in the Deerfield Valley for volume brokerage. As expected, Arlene came through for me in the sale of my home. The closing went smoothly and this perfectionist can only commend Arlene on a job well done. Arlene sets the standard by which all realtors should be judged.
We chose Arlene and Palmiter Realty because they had hit a grand slam for us when we sold our mother's house in 2003. Arlene did it again this time (Aug 2014) when she sold our house the day after the first showing; when the many other houses for sale in the neighborhood had not sold for years. Not only that but it sold above the asking price & for cash! As far as we are concerned Arlene & Palmiter Realty deserve the MVP Award!! She was meticulous in getting us and our house ready and closing the deal. We wouldn't go with anyone else.
Arlene worked with me for over a year to find the perfect property. She was very patient and helpful throughout the process, and was genuinely interested in finding the right property for our family. She has a deep local knowledge of Southern Vermont, both in terms of properties but also regarding contractors and other service providers. Overall it was a great experience working with her!
Arlene was very helpful with the search and purchase of our new home. she is knowledgeable, patient, and responsive...which is exactly what we needed. It was a pleasure working with Arlene, and she continues to be a great resource for us, always happy to provide advice and information about the region.
Arlene did a fantastic job on all aspects of this transaction. She priced the home appropriately, marketed it impressively, and sold the unit in two days - at full asking price. Her demands and expectations were reasonable and I am 100% satisfied. I am a real estate attorney and meet a fair amount of brokers - giving me a greater insight as to the competence of Arlene and to the incompetentance of others. I would highly recommend her - and I have!
I had looked at 20 properties in the Mt Snow area before I signed on with Arlene. She showed me one property and I ended up buying the very first home that I saw with her. Arlene knows the area very well and she did a great job coordinating the whole process.
Arlene Palmiter is informative and knowledgeable. I have known Arlene for many years. When I placed several properties for sale I knew immediately who would best represent my interests.
I am happy to give Arlene my highest recommendation.
Patricia Farrington President Honora Winery
Arlene represented me in the sale of my home. I always felt that she was "on my side" and understood my issues. She was helpful on everything concerning the sale and my subsequent move. My house was at the "lower end" of the market, and I never felt that Arlene and her agency gave me any less attention or service because of that. And, she found the perfect buyer!

Mike Nowatzki, Published June 21 2009
Protection and price tags: Variety of flood control concepts are under studyThe saying goes that no two floods are the same.
The same could be said for flooding solutions.
A diversion that worked in Winnipeg may not be cost-effective in Fargo-Moorhead.
A system of levees and floodwalls like the one that guards Grand Forks and East Grand Forks would cost more in Fargo-Moorhead but possibly provide less protection.
And widespread water retention projects such as building new dams on rivers and holding more water in farm fields bring their own set of challenges.
But officials on both sides of the Red River agree on this: As the Army Corps of Engineers continues to study flood control options for the southern part of the Red River Valley, everything is being considered.
Several options popped up last month in a preliminary report laying out the scope of the corps' Fargo-Moorhead Metropolitan Feasibility Study.
So far, only two have made it to the conceptual design phase: A
$909 million diversion on the Minnesota side and a $625 million levee system.
Those and other concepts are explored here with guidance from Craig Evans, a corps project manager based in St. Paul.
The corps hopes to have all of the alternatives fleshed out enough by December to start comparing them, he said.
Construction would start in April 2012 at the earliest, Evans said.
'No action' gets look
Under federal law, the corps must study the option of doing nothing.
As part of that study, the corps has calculated expected annual flood damages if no action is taken.
The price tag: more than $64 million annually.
That's based on the probability of several factors, such as whether levees will fail and how often flooding will occur. The Red River in Fargo-Moorhead has exceeded its flood action stage of 17 feet in 51 of the past 107 years and every year from 1993 to 2009.
The model also assumes that emergency flood fights will continue to happen.
"But we don't assume that they have a high probability of winning," Evans said.
A catastrophic failure of flood protection carries much higher estimates: $2.1 billion in a 100-year flood, $5 billion in a 250-year flood and $6.6 billion in a 500-year flood.
Nonstructural approach
This is another plan the corps must develop by law.
Nonstructural measures for flood-risk management include buying out flood-prone homes, flood-proofing by moving utilities and other items out of basements, elevating homes, controlling draining and flood insurance.
"It would typically be part of a plan rather than the whole plan," Evans said.
Levees likely component
Early analysis indicates levees and floodwalls have a better chance of meeting the corps' cost-benefit analysis than a diversion.
The corps' estimate for a preliminary levee plan is $625 million, which includes Fargo's
$161 million Southside Flood Protection Project. It would provide protection from a 100-year flood, which the corps considers a Red River level of 39.9 feet – almost a foot lower than this spring's river crest.
But the levees would have 4 feet of freeboard – the distance from the water level to the top of the levee – putting the top of the structures at 43.9 feet.
"That's going to get you close to a 500-year (flood) level," Fargo City Engineer Mark Bittner said.
A corps official said last month that the levee system was rated 1.0 in a preliminary benefit-cost analysis. Projects scoring higher than 1.0 can be funded under federal rules.
Fargo and Moorhead don't have to settle for what the corps decides is most cost beneficial. The cities can propose a larger or smaller project, known as a locally preferred plan, but it must be approved by the assistant secretary of the Army for Civil Works.
Diversion is costly
The corps is in the very early stages of studying the costs and feasibility of a Red River diversion around the metro area.
On the Minnesota side, a 30-mile, $909 million diversion would begin where the Red and Wild Rice rivers converge and run north between Dilworth and Glyndon before emptying back into the Red River northwest of Kragnes.
The 20-foot-deep floodway would be massive in scale, spanning 500 feet across the bottom and requiring 2,000 feet of right of way. It would cross four railway and 17 highway bridges.
However, it wouldn't have to cross any major waterways, which Evans said would be a major challenge for a diversion west of the Red River.
The diversion plan for the North Dakota side is "nothing more than a line at this point," he said.
The line starts about 10 miles south of Interstate 94 and goes west around Horace and West Fargo before veering back toward the east and emptying into the Red River north of Harwood, he said.
Any diversion through North Dakota would have to cross the Sheyenne, Maple and Rush rivers and likely the Wild Rice River, as well as some smaller drains, Evans said. It also would traverse Interstate 29 twice and I-94 once, along with at least four railroads.
"Whereas on the Minnesota side it's much simpler," Evans said.
The North Dakota diversion also would cost considerably more, but the corps doesn't have an estimate yet, nor a proposed length, he said.
Based on early study, the chances of a federally funded diversion are slim.
Still, there is another diversion option: Using the I-29 corridor as a diversion channel.
The idea, first pitched by several North Dakota State University professors after the 1997 flood, is to rebuild I-29 at a lower elevation, creating a channel for Red River overflow to run through Fargo during severe floods. The highway would operate as normal during most years.
Donald Schwert, distinguished professor of geology at NDSU, said the option has advantages, most importantly that the public already owns the land. He also noted that I-29 north of Fargo closes during severe floods anyway.
Schwert acknowledged it would take "considerable creative engineering" to make the project happen and keep a sunken I-29 from becoming a snow trap, but added, "It's worth consideration."
Retention will play role
It sounds simple enough: Store more water upstream and curb the flows coming through Fargo-Moorhead during floods.
But corps and local watershed officials say environmental concerns are making it increasingly difficult to build dams on major waterways.
For example, the Maple River Dam completed in 2007 near Enderlin, N.D., took more than 20 years to get built. It holds back 60,000 acre-feet of water.
A 2005 corps study estimated the upper and lower ends of potential storage upstream of Fargo-Moorhead at 400,000 and 200,000 acre-feet, which would lower the 100-year flood level by 1.6 feet and 1.1 feet, respectively.
Assuming a cost of $800 to $1,000 per acre-foot of storage, the corps roughly figured storage costs at $160 million to $400 million.
Creating smaller impoundments by restoring wetlands and using farm fields to store water may be a more realistic approach than trying to build dams, Evans said.
The North Ottawa Impoundment Project in Minnesota's Grant County will be able to hold 18,000 acre-feet of water on 75 square miles of farmland purchased by the Bois de Sioux Watershed District. That water eventually flows into the Red.
"We need a number of these projects scattered throughout the valley upstream of Fargo-Moorhead to really get a good handle on (flooding)," said Jon Roeschlein, district administrator.
It won't be cheap: The flood control portion of the North Ottawa project cost about $15 million.
A different approach that would rely on storage throughout the Red River basin is the "Waffle Plan" developed by the University of North Dakota's Energy and Environmental Research Center.
The plan calls for upgrading existing roads with new culvert gates and standpipes to hold water in farm fields for a few days to a couple of weeks to slow flows into the Red River and its tributaries.
The EERC estimates that had the Waffle Plan been in place in 1997, it would have reduced the Red River crest by 3.5 feet in Fargo and 5 feet in Grand Forks.
Center Director Gerald Groenewold said that, contrary to some criticism, EERC tests show the plan wouldn't hurt crop production and in fact may enhance it by recharging aquifers and soil moisture.
The plan would cost
$50 million to implement and up to $600 million to operate over 50 years, though that's a high estimate, said Bethany Kurz, EERC project manager. It could be in place in a year, she said.
"It's essentially holding precipitation where it falls," she said. "It's not asking anybody to hold anybody else's water."

Your living room should be welcoming to family gatherings and visiting guests. The window treatments you choose should help create this inviting atmosphere while at the same time protecting your furnishing from harmful UV rays and tempering the heat gain from direct sunlight. Here are some ideas for living room window treatments to help you get started.
Living room window treatments such as sheer shades and semi-opaque cellular shades will softly filter light while blocking UV rays. Wood blinds and shutters can bring the warmth of real wood into your home while providing great light control and privacy. For rooms with a sliding door, there are great alternatives to the traditional vertical blind - instead, try a modern panel track blind or a vertical sheer blind. Many of these products come in fabrics that coordinate to other window treatments, such as roman shades, to give you a matching look for all your windows.
Specialty lift options can offer flexible choices for operation and light control. For windows that are very high or difficult to reach, motorized lift or tilt options available on many blinds and shades to let you control the shade remotely. Top down/bottom up is another great living room window treatment that lets in light from the top while maintaining privacy by keeping the bottom of the shade closed.
$259retail $387+ an extra 15% off
$299retail $446+ an extra 10% off
Although light is substantially blocked, some vague shadows may be visible.
Backed by the Good Housekeeping Seal, this line of custom blinds and shades features stylish and exclusive colors, a wide range of child-safe features and the quality you would expect from Good Housekeeping Custom Blinds and Shades.
Levolor, one of the most recognized names in custom blinds and shades, has set the standard in window fashion, design innovation and product quality since 1914.
Choose from our selection of window treatments featuring brown fabrics and materials.
Try black window treatments for a striking contrast and modern look
Offering a variety of natural textures, fabric is featured in a number of shades and vertical blinds.
Flattened pieces of bamboo in various colors are the star of these window treatments
Strands of wild grasses are woven together for casual style
Whether a simple design or a complex weave, matchsticks make the shade.
Large round reeds with other natural materials make a bold statement.
Stained or painted narrow slats of wood are featured in these shades.

Volkswagen just set its e-mobility commercial phasers on stunning. The German automaker has cast Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock of Star Trek fame (i.e., actors William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy) in a new advertisement for its growing stable of electric vehicles. Even though it's in German, we think you can get the idea.

I'm having trouble extracting the whole number from a number field in the expression builder in Access.
Here's what I thought would work:
This does not work. Upon running my query, I get a message box popping up stating "Invalid Call Procedure"
Field before the expression = 1.4
Field after the expression = 1
Thus taking the whole number and extracting that. Of cource the whole number could be 3, 30 or 300. The length will be different at all times, so you can't use trim left for a length of 1.

I wanted to cut up a string of email addresses which may be separated by any combination of commas and white-space.
And I thought it would be pretty straight-forward :
sep = re.compile('(\s*,*)+')
print sep.split("""firstname.lastname@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com
But it isn't. I can't find a regex that won't leave some empty slots like this :
['email@example.com', '', 'email@example.com', '', 'email@example.com', '', 'email@example.com']
I've tried various combinations, but none seem to work. Is this, in fact, possible, with regex?

Yesterday Kevin Norwood left the practice facility with an injury, and many did not know the seriousness of the injury. Well today the former Alabama wide out had a bone spur removed from his foot according to Stephen Cohen.
Stephen Cohen @scohenPI
WR Kevin Norwood had a bone spur removed from his foot yesterday. Could be back by end of camp. #Seahawks
The Seahawks were lucky with this injury because if it was anything else it could have taken a lot longer to get their player back on the field. Norwood is a good wide out and the Seahawks are expecting a lot from him. If the injury does not heal by the end of the pre-season the team could place him on the PUP list.Do you follow the NFL Draft?

Corey Booker Made Up His Drug Dealer Friend "T-Bone," Sources Say
I'm writing a piece on Slate's descent into
This is a good story. I just have nothing to add.
Bookers tales of his trials and travails on the streets of Newark, the city that twice elected him mayor, are familiar, and they have helped to breed an almost mythological aura around the Stanford, Oxford, and Yale graduate.... But sources tell National Review Online that the central character in one of Bookers oft-repeated stories T-Bone, the drug pusher who the mayor has said threatened his life at one turn and sobbed on his shoulder the next is a figment of his imagination, even though Booker has talked about him in highly emotional terms and in great detail.
I don't know. I think T-Bone is real.
Certainly, the dialogue Booker attributes to "T-Bone" sounds realistic and highly accurate, and at all like something he Just Made Up By Remembering Bits of Movies and Old Damon Wayans Routines:
You know what this country really needs? Another black Politician/Savior with a sort of ambiguous sexuality and a fictitious backstory.
That's what we need.
That was linked by the author of the piece, Eliana Johnson, at NRO.

Letter: Fired up
Jim Gibson, Naples
Fired up
Re: East Naples Fire District's proposed property tax increase.
Well done, Daily News editorial board.
With the help of Janet Vasey's insightful fiscal analysis, you saw right through the sham that was the ENFD's justification for a 33 percent tax rate increase: "It's the economy."
Nowhere in their presentation to your editorial staff did the ENFD mention its history of profligate and irresponsible spending, especially in light of a faltering economy. In 2009, instead of beginning to take the prudent fiscal measures required to deal with declining revenues, the fire commissioners granted a 20 percent salary increase (partially retroactive for a full fiscal year) which only served to worsen the fiscal condition.
In fact, if one looks carefully at Vasey's analysis, it is readily apparent that this expansion in expenditures more than doubles the loss of revenue during this period.
It is clear that the commissioners were operating with the sole forethought that they could offload this entire burden onto the taxpayers of the district.
Again, well done, Daily News, and let's hope that the call for meaningful consolidation discussions is heard by all.

To Be Perfectly Honest: A Novel Based on an Untrue Story (Compact Disc)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
My name is Colette.
This book is about me.
Who am I?
To be perfectly honest,
I m not exactly sure who I am.
I guess you could say
I m the fifteen-year-old daughter
of an annoyingly famous movie star.
Or maybe
I m the eighteen-year-old daughter
of a famous movie star's stand-in.
Or maybe
I m the thousand-year-old daughter
of a vampire....
Having trouble guessing
which one of these stories is true?
Join the club.
My friends
have a joke about me:
How can you tell if Colette is lying?
Her mouth is open.
