Penn State authorizes payment of $60 million to abuse victims: WSJ
- Tweet
- Share this
(Reuters) - Pennsylvania State University's trustees have authorized the payment of about $60 million to settle claims by the victims of sexual abuse by former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The settlements of about 25 of some 30 claims are expected to be finalized within a month, the paper said on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The university said the claims would be settled by its insurer, Pennsylvania Manufacturers' Association Insurance Co, although the firm has gone to court to contest its liability for claims related to the case.
Sandusky was convicted in June last year of sexually abusing 10 boys over 15 years, some in the team's showers. He was sentenced to 30 to 60 years in prison.
A spokesman for Penn State declined to comment to the Journal. Reuters could not immediately reach Penn State for comment outside of regular business hours.
(Reporting By Kanika Sikka in Bangalore; Editing by Kevin Liffey)
Seems bizarre that the Board of Trustees is offering settlements while the insurance company is saying they won't pay them.
Still have seen no explanation why Penn State would be liable for any abuse by Sandusky prior to 2001.

Appellation VillageGrape Variety :
Site: at the southern end of Burgundy, just north of Beaujolais. The appellation Saint-Véran is actually larger than the territory of the commune.History & tradition: the actual village of Saint-Vérand is spelled differently (note the final "d"). Established by decree in 1971, it is the latest appellation in the Mâconnais region.
Soil: Jurassic limestone, a continuation of the chalky strata found in the Côte d'Or, ideal for growing Chardonnay grapes.
Plantation density: 8,500 vine stocks/hectare.Pruning: Guyot.
Yield: purposely low in order to extract all possible nuances from the terroir.
Supply: grapes and must purchased from regular suppliers (long term contracts).
Pressing: very slow so as to respect the fruit. Juices from the last pressings are not retained.No artificial yeasts or enzymes are used.
Type: in stainless steel vats Length: 6 to 8 months
Throughout the ageing process, decisions are taken only after careful tasting evaluation. The data obtained is completed through technical analysis. As with every other Joseph Drouhin wine, absolute priority is given to the true expression of terroir and character of the vintage.
Tasting note by Véronique Boss-Drouhin
"A wine that smiles and makes you smile! It is stylistically close to Pouilly-Fuissé, with its golden hue, its greenish reflection and its refreshing taste. The aromas are reminiscent of the ripe Chardonnay grape, with subtle notes of musk. A pleasant roundness coats the palate".Vintage
We are still surprised by their precise and intense aromas. The bouquets are extremely pleasing: these wines are rich and finely balanced. Indeed these wines are so attractive and with such good fruitiness that they can be appreciated young, from now.Serving
Temperature: 12/13°C (53-54°F).Cellaring: 1 to 3 years.

Loading... Lunch in Paris: A Love Story, with Recipes (edition 2011)by Elizabeth Bard
Work detailsLunch in Paris: A Love Story, with Recipes by Elizabeth Bard
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. I really loved this book, a personal story broken up by some very delicious sounding recipes that might be worth a try! The author detailed her difficulties and achievements when it came to moving to France full time, language barrier and all. I definitely recommend it for those curious about travel to France, there are some tips worth taking on board. Wonderful look at the "simple" life in Paris with excellent recipes for small kitchens. The true love story is real and delightful to read. B Bard "It had been eight years since that first lunch in Paris, six since I'd dragged my overstuffed suitcases up the spiral stairs to Gwendal's student flat to stay. We still live on the same street, though now there are orante plaster moldings, a bathtub‑ and heat," Lunch in Paris is exactly like the title suggest a love story with recipes, but what it fails to mention is that Elizabeth Bard is discovering Paris one meal at a time. Alienated by it's culture, Elizabeth is forced to find herself through her savory palette not only for Gwendal but, the cuisine as well. Lunch in Paris is a great read, especially when you have a plane to France to catch (which I unfortunately did not). An upbeat memoir about discovering Paris and romance and French cuisine.
"Lunch in Paris" winds its way through eight years of eating and Bard's progression from a kitchen novice intimidated by the French language and Paris' hectic markets to an adventurous shopper and experimental cook comfortable mixing French, American and other techniques. It's nearly impossible not to fall in love with her along the way. She's halfway home with her luscious description of that first steak.
References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in EnglishNone Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 031604279X, Hardcover)In Paris for a weekend visit, Elizabeth Bard sat down to lunch with a handsome Frenchman--and never went home again.Was it love at first sight? Or was it the way her knife slid effortlessly through her pavé au poivre, the steak's pink juices puddling into the buttery pepper sauce? LUNCH IN PARIS is a memoir about a young American woman caught up in two passionate love affairs--one with her new beau, Gwendal, the other with French cuisine. Packing her bags for a new life in the world's most romantic city, Elizabeth is plunged into a world of bustling open-air markets, hipster bistros, and size 2 femmes fatales. She learns to gut her first fish (with a little help from Jane Austen), soothe pangs of homesickness (with the rise of a chocolate soufflé) and develops a crush on her local butcher (who bears a striking resemblance to Matt Dillon). Elizabeth finds that the deeper she immerses herself in the world of French cuisine, the more Paris itself begins to translate. French culture, she discovers, is not unlike a well-ripened cheese-there may be a crusty exterior, until you cut through to the melting, piquant heart. Peppered with mouth-watering recipes for summer ratatouille, swordfish tartare and molten chocolate cakes, Lunch in Paris is a story of falling in love, redefining success and discovering what it truly means to be at home. In the delicious tradition of memoirs like A Year in Provence and Under the Tuscan Sun, this book is the perfect treat for anyone who has dreamed that lunch in Paris could change their life. (retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:44:09 -0400) "Lunch in Paris is a story of falling in love, redefining success, and discovering what it truly means to be at home" -- Cover.

Bring your appetite and your sweet tooth to this Venezuelan diner.
For her arroz con pollo, Judith buries chopped chicken, carrots and peas in a mound of rice and adds a cup of black beans flavored with onions, garlic and red peppers. For pollo � la parrila, she seasons chicken breast with garlic, salt and black pepper, grills it until just crisp, and serves it with guasacaca-a milder, thinner cousin of guacamole. My, that bird is tasty.
The same guasacaca accompanies a hefty white-peppered sirloin steak. Good stuff. You'll want to scarf it all down, as if you actually burned enough calories to merit Venezuelan-style consumption. What do you care? Fill up. But whatever you do, don't skip dessert.
Judy Suzarra-Campbell makes arepas like her grandmother made them: fluffy and kernel-flecked, grilled, split like an English muffin and filled with delicious sandwich makings.

Pitt is a UN investigator assigned to find the source of a zombie epidemic. If even half of Brooks' ideas and his grand apocalyptic tableau had survived the adaptation, this could have been something special. What it actually is: a classy but weak pop zombie trifle. See full review Friday. Two stars
Grant Park. 14A. 109 minutes
This is Richard Linklater's third entry in the chat-filled art movie franchise detailing the relationship of Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Celine (Julie Delpy), once hipsters, now parents of twins engaged with an examination of their morphing relationship while on vacation in Greece.

A documentary on the Saskatoon band the Sheepdogs as they negotiate the heady trip from relative obscurity to sudden fame courtesy of a Rolling Stone magazine cover story. Directed by Winnipegger John Barnard.
The following movies have been previously reviewed by Free Press movie critic Randall King, unless otherwise noted.
Kildonan Place, McGillivray, Polo Park, St. Vital. G. 103 minutes
This animated adventure tells the story of a young woman who discovers her father's crazy research into a race of teeny-tiny warriors is valid when she herself is shrunk down. Epic may not be epic, but it isn't half bad, either. It's just that as high as the bar has been raised on this sort of animation, this is more evidence that a strong story is worth more than any next-generation software Three stars (Reviewed by Roger Moore)
Kildonan Place, Polo Park, St. Vital, Towne. 14A. 131 minutes.
Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Dwayne Johnson return for this sequel to the muscle car franchise in which Dom (Diesel) and his outlaw crew are recruited to stop a mercenary gang led by a corrupt former British Special Services agent (Luke Evans). The series is getting sillier as it goes, with digitally-enhanced stunts so ridiculous, contemporary Bond movies look like documentary realism by comparison. But director Justin Lin somehow manages to pop a little nitrous into this series with a deftly balanced fuel blend of melodrama, action and heavy metal. Three stars
Polo Park. 14A. 100 minutes
The third and final instalment in the adventures of the "Wolf Pack" (Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, Ed Helms) as the boys return to Las Vegas to get caught up in a misadventure involving the perpetually troublesome Mr. Chow (Ken Jeong). Slow, sentimental and somewhat sedated, the third Hangover movie isn't so much exhausted of outrageous "Oh no, they DIDN'T!" ideas as it is spent of energy. Two stars (Reviewed by Roger Moore)
McGillivray, St. Vital. PG. 120 minutes
Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson are a couple of old-school salesmen who attempt to break into the new digital realm interning for Google and find themselves competing for a position against a cadre of computer-savvy hotshots. The guys swap lines like veteran jazz musicians who still have a sense of play about them -- and endless supply of nicknames, high and low fives, dated slang, and goodwill, theirs for each other and ours for them. Three and a half stars (Reviewed by Roger Moore)
Grant Park. PG. 131 minutes.
In the third installment of the Iron Man franchise, a thoroughly rattled Tony Stark (Robert Downey) is forced to go without his usual high-tech toys to investigate both a powerful terrorist known as "The Mandarin" (Sir Ben Kingsley) and a rival genius (Guy Pearce) creating super-soldier technology. Comic book purists may not appreciate liberties taken with the Mandarin and the dearth of a fully functional Iron Man, but for the rest of us, this is a witty, wild outing, closer in tone to The Avengers than the forgettable Iron Man 2. Three and a half stars
Globe. PG. 97 minutes.
A Norwegian drama based on the story of Thor Heyerdal's epic 4,300 miles crossing of the Pacific on a balsa wood raft in 1947, to prove it was possible for South Americans to settle in Polynesia in pre-Columbian times. This is a grand old-school yarn with enough drama and dramatic incidents to make even Indiana Jones envious at the adventure of it all. Three and a half stars (Reviewed by Roger Moore)
Grant Park, Kildonan Place, McGillivray, McGillivray VIP, Polo Park, Polo Park Imax, St. Vital, Towne. PG. 143 minutes.
After Superman Returns (Bryan Singer's slavish homage to Richard Donner's '70s Superman franchise), Warner Bros. goes for a grittier approach with this reboot from director Zack Snyder featuring Henry Cavill as Clark Kent and Michael Shannon as his Krypton-born nemesis General Zod, Snyder's Supe does not represent a more "realistic" approach to the Superman myth. It simply forgoes the more cornball mythology -- the red-and-blue Superman suit, the secret identity silliness involving mild-mannered Clark Kent, etc. -- favouring a more grounded, and literally darker rendition of Smallville's favourite son. Three and a half stars
Globe, Grant Park. PG. 130 minutes
While glossy new films mire the summer movie marketplace, it figures the one drama worth seeing is titled Mud. A couple of Arkansas boys discover a fugitive (Matthew McConaughey) living alone on an island in the Mississippi and resolve to help him reunite with the trashy temptress (Reese Witherspoon) he considers his soul mate. Director Jeff Nichols (Shotgun Stories, Take Shelter) invokes Mark Twain adventure but approaches the premise with an open heart and without satiric agenda. For a meditation on father-son relationships, this sure beats After Earth. Four stars
McGillivray, Polo Park, St. Vital, Towne. PG. 116 minutes
A team of illusionists (including Jesse Eisenberg, Isla Fisher and Woody Harrelson) rob banks during performances and award the money to their audience in this oddball thriller co-starring Mark Ruffalo and Morgan Freeman. The razzle dazzles but the smoke never quite hides the mirrors in Now You See Me, a super-slick new magicians' heist picture that demonstrates, once again, how tough it is to make "magic" as a movie subject work. Two and a half stars (Reviewed by Roger Moore)
Polo Park, St. Vital, Towne. 14A. 86 minutes
In a future dystopian America, the government permits crime for one whole night while suspending emergency services. Those dire circumstances place a security consultant (Ethan Hawke) in mortal peril when a gang of thugs targets his house. You wouldn't want the 85-minute killfest to last longer, but its premise requires more sophisticated layering for the audience to really get on board with the notion that people leading very comfortable lives will suddenly go on a murder bender just because they can. Two stars (Reviewed by Kristin Tillotson)
Polo Park, St. Vital. PG. 132 minutes.
J.J. Abrams lets the other reboot drop with this sequel to the 2009 relaunch of Star Trek, with Kirk (Chris Pine) and Spock (Zachary Quinto) going up against a superhuman (Benedict Cumberbatch) with a grudge against Earth. Given the license to take the Trek universe somewhere new, Abrams chooses to go less-than-boldly to where it's been before, and the results are correspondingly disappointing. Two and a half stars
Grant Park, Kildonan Place, McGillivray, McGillivray VIP, Polo Park, St. Vital, Towne. 18A. 107 minutes.
A Hollywood-insider-buddy comedy conjoins with apocalyptic horror to coarsely funny effect when Seth Rogen takes Jay Baruchel to James Franco's house for a party and hell literally busts loose. Three and a half stars

Staff Writer
Insurance Associates is a family-owned and operated agency in Middletown, owned by several third-generation business partners, including Gregg Grimes, whose grandfather started his agency in the 1940s.
Grimes said his grandfather Ralph Grimes was a mail carrier in town when a man on his route — who was in the insurance business — asked if he wanted to buy him out so he could retire.
"The rest is history," Gregg Grimes said.
Gregg's father, Bob, went to work with his father Ralph in the business after graduating from Ohio State University and serving for a time in the Air Force. Gregg followed his father to Ohio State and after working for several years at Nationwide Insurance, he returned to Middletown and joined the family agency.
"Ohio State is one of a few colleges that offer a degree in insurance and risk management," Grimes said. "And the Columbus area is No. 2 in the country for home offices of insurance carriers, so it is a great place to learn the business."
Grimes said he grew interested in insurance while growing up because it is a "people business," which he learned by watching his father deal with people every day.
Grimes said in 1968, several individual agencies formed the partnership as it stands today.
"They came together to form this group so they could gain the efficiencies of one," Grimes said. "It's really worked well."
Grimes said it has worked so well that the partners now have 27 employees here in the Middletown office, three in Lexington, Ky., and one of Nashville, Tenn.
The office used to be located on South Main Street, then moved into the building now housing Cincinnati State. In 1999, it relocated to the current location at 1061 University Blvd.
"We have a great home here," Grimes said. "And it was important for us to stay here when we looked at moving in 1999. There was no thought of leaving Middletown because the location is right in the center and we've been able to pick up some talented folks to work here."

Actor who apparently killed landlady not on drugs
Actor who apparently killed landlady not on drugs
LOS ANGELES — A former "Sons of Anarchy" actor who was the lone suspect in the killing of his landlady did not have drugs in his system when he died, according to an autopsy report released Thursday.
Authorities had been interested in whether Johnny Lewis was on drugs or medication when he apparently killed Catherine Davis in her home and then fell to his death in her driveway.

Whatever he became, the sweet, kind, brilliant man that we once knew long ago… He's gone.
(Source: feu-follet)
"There's a lot of pressure being the child of immigrants."
"Why's that?"
"My mother is Thai, my father is from Chile. They met while working at a restaurant. There's a knowledge among first generation immigrants— that they aren't going to be the ones to achieve the American Dream. They have to work hard and struggle so that their children will have a shot at it. So they educate their children and pass the Dream along to them. And now I have an obligation to make more fucking money than them, to live the American Dream, to validate all the risks they took and everything they went through. And that's a heavy burden."

Hi Guys!
I have been considering the possibility lately of rehoming my Scaly-Breasted Lorikeet. I am really not 100% sure if I want to go through with it but I am starting to think it may be the best thing for her. I got her when I still lived at home and have had her with me the whole time, however these days I am working long long hours and often get back after dark, so of course she is in bed. I worry that she is not getting enough attention and out of cage time and while I love her I wonder if rehoming her to an in-home situation where she'd have more time or into an aviary where she'd have more company would be better for her.
She recently stayed at a bird sitter when I went on holidays for a month and coped fantastically so I know that she will be fine to go to a new home.
She is your typical lorikeet. Hilarious, noisy and confident. She used to be quite bitey (as they can be) but I have gotten her out of this most of the time, and now when she does bite it's no where near as hard! She speaks a lot and makes lots of funny sounds, and can 'kiss' and 'fart' on cue. She is currently five years old.
I guess this is more an expression of interest to see if anyone would be interested in her. I'm located in Wollongong and moving to Sydney soon, which will shorten my hours away from work, but I know that definitely once it's winter it will always be dark when I leave/get home. My partner usually works nights so there is usually stuff going on in the house during the day but he doesn't get her out of the cage and it's not his responsibility to.
She would be rehomed with her all her toys, leftover food and her cage if that was wanted ( it's a bit battered and worse for wear now, but it's a good size).
Would anyone be interested? I would only want her to go to the best of homes and I know that the best of homes are located right here!
Possible rehome of a Scaly-Breasted Lorikeet

Barry Artiste, I like this story. It's good stuff. I usually see Family Guy to please my family but I consider the Michael J. Fox segment and the segment where Stewy kicks Brian Griffin [the dog] in poor taste. I hope someone from PETA takes a look at this article and see the episode so that we could remove comedy in bad taste and replace it with something more sensible [if there is any].

Nice, quiet place with really good Italian food. They have good collection of wine as well. Service is excellent and staff is very polite and helpful.
Nice, quiet place with really good Italian food. They have good collection of wine as well. Service is excellent and staff is very polite and helpful.
This is the place for real upscale Italian, but that's not to say you can't get a simple plate of spaghetti and world call meatballs at a reasonable price. Plus they've recently added a very comfortable bar so arriving a bit early for a cocktail is not a bad idea. We've dined here a number of times and always enjoyed... More
i'm not sure if the pasta is homemade but it certainly tastes like it. we have been to Divino a few times and I haven't been able to take any leftovers home once no matter how hard I try and thier portions are large. The food and service are really good, the corkage charge is reasonable and this is good... More
We have been to Divino a number of times and have always like it. Food: The food is very good, the favors authentic and there is attention to detail to the preparation. This will keep us going back. The menu does change frequently and the dishes are quite different that what you would see in a regular Italian place. This... More
Perfetto! The food is delicious and authentic, the staff is friendly; the atmosphere is warm and inviting; and the chef humble, yet obviously talented. A gem of a place!!!
Standards are high at this pleasant Italian place, fortunately open on Sunday. Service was very well-informed, relaxed and attentive. A risotto special was creamy, not overly cheesy, with butternut squash, perfectly cooked. The linguini con vongole was al dente, sauce not creamy, just perfect and very flavorful; we tend to be fussy about shellfish, and were not disappointed. Another special... More
I have eaten at a lot of Italian restaurants in the Bay Area, and Divino is outstanding. I first tried Bacco in S.F. when Chef Vincenzo Cucco was the co-owner and Chef. I was happy to find out that Divino was closer to home in the Peninsula and the food is just as outstanding with Vincenzo Cucco as the owner/chef.
Delicious food, relaxed atmosphere, friendly service...what more could you ask for?
Restaurante Italiano, yummy, yummy! the atention is top-notch

Big girls need love too! He just asks me which is prettier, the enchantress or leah. My poor barb is about to /wrists!
Everyone knows big girls try harder
He doesn't hit on the female barb because he knows he won't have any balls left if he says the wrong thing to her.
The scoundrel merely values his pelvis.
He just isn't into snoo snoo
I just started playing with the scoundrel to check this, and i have to say, I'm not sure what the OP is talking about-- He hits on my barb all the time, talking about how big of a charmer he is and that they should take what pleasures they could in dark times when she cockblocks him.
"Do you think an AMAZING woman like you and a fellow like me could ever be more than friends?" "No." "You're missing out..." "No, i'm not." "I see."

Thats exactly what the Demon Hunter says ;x |
Most dialogue is reused. My Barb and my boyfriend's DH often say nearly identical stuff, for example. Saves precious writing time so Blizz can work harder on the outstanding D3 storyline... :\ |
... not to mention the time and resources involved in recording, editing, processing, compressing, and programming thousands of lines of customized dialog - across eleven languages. :\ indeed. |
Scoundrel + Female Wizard is great lol I wonder if it goes the same with Male Wizard :x
"are you exceedingly beautiful right now, or am i seeing a mirage?"
"you are wasting your time" scoundrel digs big girls |
Female Barb cannot dunk, but has good fundamentals. That what really count. |
He hits on my female barbarian, and uses the line about Leah and Ierina prettiness on my other female characters. He's equal opportunity and loves the gorgeous barbarian as much as the skinny wizard, for example.
I just wanted to say that this is possibly the funniest thing i've read all day. Thank you. |
Poster above is right, was in the Keep Depths Level 2, and Scoundrel was bragging about his exploits.
Scoundrel: I met a woman from the North once. Female DH: Here we go again... Scoundrel: She was cold at first, but I warmed her right up! Seems he's either reckless or simply lusty enough to risk offending a woman who can tear his spine out from the front of this body ^_^
Edited by Zanthador64#1203 on 7/28/2012 1:46 PM PDT
I think he hits on all the women. If I'm not mistakes, the female Witch Doctor is the only one that doesn't reject him. I just started with my WD, but at one point the scoundrel asks her what she'd do if he stopped following her around. Her response was "Miss your company". I'll have to see how that progresses.

ROCK HILL For the second time within a month, a charity collecting clothes and shoes for the needy told police their large, yellow donation boxes had been repainted and relabeled to solicit donations for another nonprofit currently facing suspension and a possible $2,000 fine.
On Monday, Gena Carruthers, territory manager for Planet Aid, told police she had been tracking down the theft of six donation bins where people drop in clothes and other supplies for the less-fortunate, according to a Rock Hill police report. Two of those boxes were stationed in Rock Hill: one at Sawyers Cleaners and the other at Tuesday Morning, both on Cherry Road.
The items Planet Aid collects support development project overseas, help the environment and provide items to the needy and homeless. Its supported by site hosts, typically business owners who allow the organization to plant their donation boxes on their property at malls, shopping centers, convenience stores and churches. Donated clothes are sent to warehouses, where they are sold to thrift stores or directly to overseas customers.
Within the past several months, the boxes have been taken, repainted green and sketched with the words Helping Hands of Carolina before they were returned to their previous locations, the report states. Planet Aids boxes are yellow and have a distinct shape, Carruthers said: Each bin represents a significant investment for us and it leaves us with one less donation bin.
Of the six boxes Carruthers claims are missing, she has found one in Lancaster County, and the rest in York County.
In June 2012, Planet Aid reported that donation boxes had been stolen from a Mexican restaurant, car detail shop and a car dealership in Gastonia, N.C., according to Gastonia Police Department records. Police did not have any suspects or leads to follow.
About three months ago, Carruthers said she found one of the stolen boxes in Fort Mill near Carowinds while driving past the Comfort Inn & Suites. The box had been repainted green and the logo for Helping Hands covered information about Planet Aid. A month later, Carruthers found a second bin, also repainted green and affixed with a Helping Hands sticker, in Lancaster.
Deputies called a Helping Hands phone number and spoke with Marie Simons, the nonprofits founder, the report states. The deputy dropped the call because he could not understand her. He tried calling back several times but never got an answer. A bystander told deputies that the box had been in front of the business for nearly a year.
Last month, Carruthers discovered two other repainted Planet Aid boxes in front of Catos in York, according to a York Police report. While in Rock Hill on Monday, she found a repainted box in front of Sawyers Cleaners. She said the owner told her that someone had been collecting the items from the box.
She soon found another box outside of Tuesday Morning, which had been outside the store for at least two years, said Valerie Shillinglaw, store manager.
Shillinglaw said people donate all kinds of stuff to the box, dropping off items as big as dishware, a baby carriage and a rocking horse, she said: Theyve been racking up.
Carruthers said Planet Aid has never worked in partnership with Helping Hands.
Helping Hands of Carolina, headquartered in Lancaster, is a registered nonprofit with the Secretary of State that collects and sends donated items to Haiti, and cares for people suffering from breast cancer and HIV, Simons said.
The painted boxes, she said, were never stolen, but had been at their posted locations at least since 2007, originally belonging to another nonprofit that state officials confirm has since dissolved. That group allowed Helping Hands to use their unused boxes, said Simons, adding that the paint must have chipped to expose the yellow coloring underneath. The boxes, she said, never belonged to Planet Aid, where she worked for a year in Greenville.
Police are probing the case and will have to try and prove who might have repainted the boxes, said Rock Hill Police Executive Officer Mark Bollinger. The culprits responsible might have civil culpability because the theft would be considered a misdemeanor. Carruthers initially overstated the value of the boxes, telling police they are worth $2,000. Authorities have learned they are actually worth $1,200, or $600 each.
Police do not believe the boxes were stolen in Rock Hill, but have allowed Planet Aid to reclaim them because Carruthers was able to provide serial numbers matching both bins, he said.
Helping Hands faces suspension from the Secretary of State after officials learned the organization learned it had been soliciting for contributions though it failed to register properly with the state, according to a letter from the Secretary of State.
The group last registered with the state in 2008, but their exempt status expired in 2009, said Shannon Wiley, deputy general counsel for the Secretary of State. All registrations, including registrations for exempt nonprofits, must be renewed each year if the organization is soliciting any kind of contributions.
State officials received a complaint that the organization was soliciting while not registered, Wiley said. Officials sent the notice of violation on Oct. 18. Helping Hands received on Oct. 21. As of Oct. 21, the group has 15 days to come into compliance or risk paying the state $2,000. If they do not, the group will be suspended and the state will file an administrative injunction against them, requesting the courts to shut the organization down until the fines are paid.
When you do fundraising, you need to renew it, Simons said. I forgot to renew it. I dont do fundraising...we dont have time to do fundraising.

My husband and I vacationed at this condo last December. Our stay was most enjoyable! The immaculate condo is spacious, very nicely decorated and well appointed with stainless steel appliances, numerous smaller appliances including a Keurig coffeemaker (yeah!) and a washer and dryer. The lanai is amazing; master suite with access to it plus private bath is great and 2nd bedroom w/2nd bath. Great views of the water; quiet condo; terrific location close to fabulous restaurants and amazing shopping. Two TVs, DVD player and Bose radio. Well maintained condo & building. Covered parking close to entrance, heated swimming pool, community room adjacent to pool ... And the list goes on. Most accommodating owners were wonderful to work with. Would love to meet them one day! On a scale from 1 - 10 ... We give this lovely vacation condo a 10! LindaRecommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We shared the condo rental with another couple so between the four of us, we were in Bonita Springs the entire month of December.The view is spectacular, the sounds of the ocean are so refreshing to hear everyday, and sunsets are magnificant! I walked along the beach everyday and enjoyed "shelling" very much. The location, parking, pool set-up and the commons room were all great. The condo has recently been updated and looks great; it is also very quiet and pleasant around the Egret. Shopping, places to eat, and tourist attractions are abundant in the area! You must eat at WaterMark Grille if you are ever in the area! We are hoping to return next year!Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.

The condo exceeded our expectations. We can recommend without hesitation. Very clean and nicely furnished ... quality linens, good large and small appliances ... cleaning products supplied...new silverware, dishes, glasses, etc. Beautiful view from lanai of white beach and Gulf of Mexico. Keep the windows open, use the ceiling fans and you don't need the A/C. Lobby and common room were also clean and nicely appointed. Several good restaurants close to condo ...we enjoyed Coconut Jack's.Shopping in Naples and sweets at Tony's off Third makes for a great day. Tony's also sells top quality wines.Recommended for: Age 55+.
Owner response: Thank you for your very kind review. I am glad that you enjoyed your visit to Bonita and hope to see you next year.

We just returned from a month long stay in this condo and we can't say enough good things about the condo itself, the location, and of course the beautiful sunsets! The recently redone interior is absolutely beautiful, and was much better than advertised. The fact that this condo is an end unit, the views from the dining room window and, of course, the lanai are absolutely beautiful. We already have planned our trip here for next April and we can't wait. We miss the jumping dolphins and the diving pelicans already!Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

My husband and I stayed here 2 weeks in January. We had a wonderful stay at this condo. The listing is totally accurate. The kitchen is gorgeous, the appliances are superb. Everything was very clean and brand new. The location is perfect, close to restaurants and shopping. The owner was helpful in answering all of our questions and concerns. The sunsets were so beautiful from the lanai we hated to leave. We would definitely recommend this condo to anyone looking for an excellent place to stay.Recommended for: Age 55+, girls getaway.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Egret:
We have been traveling to Bonita SPrings for over 25 years and decided we would love to have a place there on the beach. We love to take long walks on the beach or go for bike rides.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
The condo complex is small and very well maintained. It is in a safe and quiet area - away from the hussle and bussle, but close to everything. Walking and biking paths are right out the front door.
