"Good value"
Property and rooms were clean. Breakfast was well attended. Had some issues with the cable going out on the TV but I believe it was an isolated incident. Both evening and morning staff were very nice. Not many options in this area but I would say this property is a good choice and of good value.Hotels.com visszajelzések
Unfortunately, this hotel still allows smoking. The first room they put us in was non-smoking, but the entire floor reeked of smoke! My eyes burned and I was coughing before we got all of our luggage in. We asked to be moved. They obliged and moved us to another floor, which was much better--except we could smell the smoke drifting up through the bathroom […] all night. We had to keep that door closed. :( További részletekHotels.com visszajelzések

The hotel was clean and pet friendly. , We had a very convenient room on the first floor which made it easy to take our dog out.

"A good choice.."
We have stayed in this hotel before and will stay there again. The breakfast bar had many good choices. The room was spacious and clean. We loved the fresh baked cookies in the evening. The location is excellent, close to town and freeway but far enough away so you're not bothered by traffic noise. The only downsides were that the sauna had loose boards […] with screws sticking up and the pool table was out of order the entire time..

Old, old and dreary. You would think Holiday Inn would be more interested in presenting quality throughout their line instead of letting the small town locations go into decline for lack of upkeep. This will make me think twice before booking Express again.Hotels.com visszajelzések

The pool was nicely […] heated and the hot tub was hot bout not overly so. The breakfast buffet had several kinds of cereal, eggs, milk, tea, coffee, juice and several other things.They even had a machine that made fresh pancakes while you waited.

It was a nice hotel. Very clean vestibule. The night before, they had been completely booked, so they were behind in their cleaning. No problem! Not all the linens in our room were removed. A little icky, but not a huge problem. The door-key reader on the outside didn't work, so, even though we parked there for our room, we did still have to walk around […] to the front. And when another review mentioned motorcycles, I thought it was just a one-time event. Many, many motorcycles. Fortunately, most were very cool about not revving their engines too early or too late.

The only two complaints we have is that it seems whenever we stay, there is a baseball tournament in town and the rowdy teenage guys stay there. The other problem we had this time was when we tried to call the front desk. We tried 3 times, ten rings each and no one answered. When I asked the desk clerk she stated she was by herself, had to deal with […] a couple and the manager was also asking her to do things. That would make me assume the manager was there.

Grosse Pointe City
September 6, 2012Growing VillageFest fills downtown Grosse Pointe City with fun for whole family
By K. Michelle Moran
C & G Staff Writer
GROSSE POINTE CITY — It may have a new name, but VillageFest — formerly Grosse Pointe's Greatest Block Party — features all of the activities, entertainment and dining opportunities local residents have come to expect.
Presented by Beaumont Health System and produced by the Grosse Pointe Village Association, the sixth annual VillageFest will take place from 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 8 and noon-5 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 9. John Denomme, marketing and promotions manager for the Grosse Pointe Village Association, said about 12,000-15,000 are expected to visit the downtown Grosse Pointe shopping district during that period, and they'll find sample specialties from 16 local restaurants in Taste of Grosse Pointe, which is sponsored by the Dirty Dog Jazz Café, located just down the road in Grosse Pointe Farms. An art show, vehicle show, entertainment and programs for children are also on the schedule.
For 28 years, the Village hosted Grosse Pointe's Greatest Garage Sale, and that event title became the basis for its successor, Grosse Pointe's Greatest Block Party. But Denomme said the similarity of the two names led some visitors to believe the garage sale was still going on.
"Over the years, we received feedback that the community was confusing Grosse Pointe's Greatest Block Party with Grosse Pointe's Greatest Garage Sale," said Village Association President Mike Kramer in an email interview. "The block party is a community festival and the garage sale was a flea market. Our hope is that VillageFest more accurately communicates the celebration of food, art, music and cars that this annual fall event has become."
Kramer, a Village business owner, is the general chair for VillageFest, and his wife, Joann, is chairing Taste of Grosse Pointe. Diners will find Italian, Middle Eastern and Polish cuisine, as well as barbeque, seafood, burgers and pizza, and an array of desserts, some of which are gluten-free, he said.
Denomme said "Art & Sole," the juried art fair, has grown greatly this year to include urban art and speed painting demonstrations, henna tattooing and auctions of sketches done on-site to raise money for the Belle Isle Aquarium. The Art Road mobile art classroom, produced by MRA, will be on-site as well, and children will be able to make their own creations inside. "Art & Sole," sponsored by Renewal by Anderson, runs 11 a.m.-dusk Saturday and noon-5 p.m. Sunday.
Youngsters will find arts and crafts to create from Pewabic Pottery, a bounce house, a giant slide, a coloring contest, silhouette artist and other interactive fun during Kids on the Block, presented by Beaumont Health System and running 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday and noon-5 p.m. Sunday.
Sunday's Pooch Parade, organized by the Michigan Humane Society, starts at 1 p.m. Sunday, but Denomme said the 150-200 participants start lining up with their four-legged friends around 12:30 p.m. for the popular walk around the Village. He said there are prizes in various categories, including biggest and smallest.
"The kids absolutely love it," Denomme said. "It's like a flash mob for dogs."
A variety of musical acts are on the bill on the McDonald's VillageFest Stage, which will feature performances from noon-5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday by the Americana string band Balduck Mountain Ramblers, sentimental favorites sung by the Shoreline Sounds Chorus, classic rock with a dash of comedy by Double Vision, Paul Carey's Organ Trio featuring vocalist Benny Reeves, jazz standards and Latin jazz with the Paul Vornhagen Jazz Quartet, the ever-popular DJ Jason Parent, and the witty, rocking polka of the Polish Muslims, along with selections from the upcoming production of "Oklahoma" by Grosse Pointe Theatre.
The Saturday Night Dance Party, presented by Grosse Pointe Urgent Care, runs from 7-10 p.m. and features the horn-driven R&B musical stylings of Dr. Pocket.
"They played last year and people loved them," Denomme said of Dr. Pocket.
The Village Car Show, sponsored by Ray Laethem Motor Village, was introduced last year and already it has expanded. It runs noon-6 p.m. Saturday and noon-5 p.m. Sunday, and features classics, antiques, hot rods, muscle cars, exotic vehicles and more.
"This car show is just growing like a weed," Denomme said. "We're very excited about the growth of the event."
What once basically just occupied Kercheval has now spread to encompass the entire Village.
"There's growth in every area," Denomme said of VillageFest.
The beloved kickoff for fall offers fun for everyone from little tykes to seniors.
"We think we have a nice balance," Denomme said. "There's plenty for the kids to do, and as a community event, we've always made sure all (attendees) are entertained."
Kramer said the many volunteers who work on VillageFest — especially the chairs of different elements — are key to the festival's success. He said the "food, the music, the art, and the cars, and most importantly, seeing and visiting with your friends and neighbors," are what keep people coming back year after year.
The festival also gives Village merchants a chance to introduce newcomers to their wares.
"There'll be lots of great shopping that weekend as well," Denomme said. "(Visitors) will find some really unique offers and items."

Injured Canucks Defencemen – Then and Now
The Vancouver Canucks will play tonight's game in Nashville without Alex Edler, Dan Hamhuis, Keith Ballard, Andrew Alberts and, as we found out this morning, Kevin Bieksa. That's 5 of their top 7 defencemen out of the lineup. To make matters worse, minor leaguer Lee Sweatt broke his foot in practice. Even the Manitoba Moose have injury troubles on the blueline, with Nolan Baumgartner suffering an injury last week. He might have been one of the recent call-ups.
Sergei Shirokov called up… Why?
My eyebrow was raised a little bit with the news this morning that Sergei Shirokov has been re-called by the Vancouver Canucks. Remember him? Shirokov had some good seasons in Russia since being drafted by the Canucks in the sixth round back in 2006. He made the move to North America last year, dazzled everyone in preseason and earned a spot on opening night.
The Canucks Defense is Overrated.
First of all, let me start off this article by stating that this is not a knee jerk reaction article because of last night's 7-1 debacle against the Chicago Blackhawks. I have been thinking about writing this article for some time now, and last night just cemented my feelings on this.
Not Again! Salo Reportedly Injures Achilles, Gone 3-5 Months
Reports out of Finland are saying that Sami Salo has injured his achilles tendon in a game of floor hockey and could be gone 3-5 months. The report has not been confirmed as of yet. Assuming the report is true, this could be a very difficult injury for Salo, now 35, to recover from. Not only is he 35, but he has a lot of mileage on his body. One side effect of Salo being injured may be Kevin Bieksa. The longer Salo is out, the more valuable Kevin Bieksa becomes. A long term injury also provides salary cap relief, just as Pavol Demitra's long term injury did last season.
Demitra to Play Saturday
Team 1040 is reporting that Pavol Demitra will likely make his season debut Saturday versus the Pittsburgh Penguins. Great news, now all they have to decide is where to put him. Has the second line of Samuelsson, Kesler, and Raymond shown enough to not get broken up? I'm not sure it has. It appears Alain Vigneault isn't ready to shake up his top two lines. Here's what the lines looked like at practice today:
Batter Up! Vokoun Gets Smacked in the Head and Other Great Slashes
What do you think Keith Ballard will say the next time he sees Tomas Vokoun? Probably going to be a little awkward I'm thinking.
Treading Water
At the quarter-way mark of the 2009-10 season, the Canucks have successfully treaded water. With a record of 10-10-0, you'd think that the Canucks would be disappointed, and perhaps they are. For me, this is about what we should have expected, all things considered.
The Return of Matt Pettinger and Your Daily Injury Update
How bad are the Canucks injury woes? Well, they've brought back a Tampa Bay Lightning cast-off! Yeeesh. Actually, I don't mind this signing. Matt Pettinger was re-signed by Mike Gillis yesterday. With all their injuries at the moment, bringing a veteran NHL forward who can skate and kill penalties probably isn't a bad idea.
The Replacements
In a weird twist this season, the Canucks have all 8 of their defencemen healthy (defencemen usually are the most injury prone), and a whole whack of injuries to forward, and then of course there's Roberto Luongo. The result has been a lot of dull hockey, with the team trying to play more defensive due to their lack of fire power. With that said, here's a review of the replacements for Luongo, Daniel Sedin, Pavol Demitra and Ryan Johnson (as well as Kyle Wellwood and Rick Rypien here and there).
Ah oh, not Luongo! Injury Update
Roberto Luongo, yet again, is injured. He'll be out at least a week with a rib injury. Whether or not it's only a week remains to be seen, as Canucks management has been known to downplay injuries in the past.

Finally I sit down and write in my notebook that when he calls me either he will then come to me, or he will not and I will be angry, and so I will have either him or my own anger, and this might be all right, since anger is always a great comfort, as I found with my husband. And then I go on to write, in the third person and the past tense, that clearly she always needed to have a love even if it was a complicated love.
From Story by Lydia Davis from her first collection Break It Down (1986).

PALM BAY, Fla. — A Florida man suffered second-degree burns over roughly half his body after accidentally setting himself on fire while lighting a Halloween display.
Authorities say Ron Nielson of Palm Bay was using gasoline, a wooden cross and candles.
Palm Bay Fire Rescue spokeswoman Yvonne Martinez tells Florida Today it's not clear whether Nielson was trying to light the cross or the candles Tuesday night. She says Nielson's clothes caught on fire.

I hope IŌĆÖm not the only reader who remembers the Highlander movie & television series. Duncan McLeod was an immortal amongst others who was fighting to be the last remaining immortal. In each episode, there was inevitably a decapitation or two as the immortal population was reduced to the final one.
I use the symbolism of the Highlander to remind me of several aspects of agile project management. The first relates to focused teams and our earnest effort to reduce all levels of multi-tasking.
The second reminder is what I want to explore hereŌĆöthe notion of investing in a single team to create a working model for your agile adoption efforts.
This isnŌĆÖt just any team. ItŌĆÖs your example team; a high performance agile machine that illustrates sound principles and delivers on the promises of agility. ItŌĆÖs a role model to other teams and proof that you can be agile in your specific organization & culture.
I have a bit of ŌĆ£mad scientistŌĆØ in me and this is the team you experiment with in trying out new and novel approaches for your domain. ItŌĆÖs the first team that moves from Scrum to Kanban. Or itŌĆÖs the first team that tries out Cucumber as a Behavior Driven Development mechanism, while including the whole team in crafting acceptance test driven automation.
LetŌĆÖs explore some of the characteristics of this singular example agile teamŌĆö
LetŌĆÖs first explore what the team isnŌĆÖtŌĆ"
The team isnŌĆÖt composed of special developers, the ŌĆ£best of the bestŌĆØ, or full of themselves egoŌĆÖs. Yes, you might have some more seasoned folks on the team, but in ratios that are representative of your other teams and overall population.The team isnŌĆÖt paid a premium wage or compensated in some special way. In many ways they represent a cross-section of your teams in experience levels and compensation structures.
The team isnŌĆÖt isolated from challenges such as interruptions, multi-tasking or dealing with unkempt legacy code. They have an equal dose of the challenges facing every other team.
And finally, the team isnŌĆÖt placed on a pedestal for everyone to see. Yes, itŌĆÖs your example team and the one that illustrates the best properties and practices of your agile adoption and progress. But, theyŌĆÖre also just another team and virtually equal to everyone else.
What the team isŌĆ"
If you buy-into creating a model team, itŌĆÖs sort of hard to figure out what that might ŌĆ£look likeŌĆØ in the wild. While I donŌĆÖt want to give you a prescriptive list like, do these five things and a magical event will occur creating a perfect model team, there are some hints I want to provide for some behaviors and practices that you might want to model for.Locale
The team is co-located and cross-functional. If at all possible, they sit together at one large table and work around and across from each other. Their room has white boards and plenty of wall space for information radiators that are meaningful to the teamThe team has some privacyŌĆöbeing located in a conference room or other walled in area. TheyŌĆÖre insulated from random noise and interruptions that might result from too open a space. IŌĆÖve often used the term ŌĆ£Team RoomŌĆØ to describe the room dynamics.
The quarters are relatively tightŌĆöin that everyone in the room is working closely together. Everyone can hear every conversation that is going on in the room. If someone is working remotely or on the phone, the room can hear the interactions.
I often get the question of whether you can leverage distributed or remote team members as part of your model team. I think the answer is normally yes. But what you want to do is allow budget for travel, training, and tooling that supports bringing your distributed team together as much as possibleŌĆöboth physically and virtually.
For example, when youŌĆÖre initially forming your team, itŌĆÖs a really good idea to bring everyone together for some initial introductions, training, and team-building. How else would you form a high-performing team?
An often used term is ŌĆśsmellsŌĆÖ with respect to agile teams. These are patterns or trends that one observes when collaborating with the team. Here are a few examplesŌĆöThereŌĆÖs a buzz in the room, itŌĆÖs rarely the case where everyone is quietly working. Instead, team members may have headsets or earphones that allow for a sense of quiet if they need to ŌĆ£get awayŌĆØ for some private work.
Work is done primarily in pairs. Not restrictive rules such asŌĆöyou MUST pair at all times. Instead, itŌĆÖs a more natural and organic level of pairingŌĆöas it makes sense, in small groups, based on the dynamics of the work. And everyone on the team pairs in one way or another!
ThereŌĆÖs quite a lot of dynamic discussion going on in clusters. A lot of white board conversations. And every conversation ends up moving over ŌĆ£working codeŌĆØ as the final arbiter of discussion and progress. SoŌĆöhovering around screens and talking about software design, behavior, adjustments, failing vs. passing tests, bugs, etc.
A final smell might be chaos. I like to describe agile methods as being an ŌĆ£uncomfortableŌĆØ methodology. They are quite strict focused towards specific practices and thereŌĆÖs an overwhelming sense of ŌĆ£controlled chaosŌĆØ, especially if youŌĆÖre part of a well-performing agile team. Point beingŌĆöitŌĆÖs not totally scripted. Discoveries happen. Plans change. Adjustments need to be made. And everyone quickly adjusts and moves on. The goal that the team has committed to for the iteration or sprint is the thing that keeps the train on the tracks, with everyone focused towards meeting that goal.
Throughput & Swarming
I get asked this question all of the timeŌĆöcan the developers move ahead of the testers on the team during a sprint? This question implies a distinct separation between development vs. testing work and aligns work done-ness along skill & functional boundaries.My answer is always the sameŌĆöno!
The team shouldnŌĆÖt get ŌĆ£partial creditŌĆØ for development-done work. In fact, they should only get credit for done-done-done features & stories that are complete, meet acceptance criteria, and are completely demonstrable. Given that definition, then teams would be better served to swarm around their work, limiting their stories in-progress (Work in Progress or WIP) and getting their work done as soon as possible.
In fact, this isnŌĆÖt an ŌĆśoptionŌĆÖ, but the way in which well-performing and mature agile team should naturally behave. They understand that throughput (the time it takes to move a story from start-to-finish) matters. And that team collaboration around getting small sets of stories done as soon as possible (swarming) is the best way to do this.
In my experience, itŌĆÖs a whole lot easier to talk about this than it is to deeply instill these behaviors in agile teams. This is why youŌĆÖd want to ŌĆ£get it rightŌĆØ in your example teamŌĆöto discover the best ways to influence this wonderful behavior.
ItŌĆÖs hard for me to explain the myriad of ways that quality activity needs to change in order for a team to truly become high-performing. The first characteristic might be everyone on the team understanding that you donŌĆÖt test-in qualityŌĆ"you build it in.Just the other day a colleague asked me what I thought were the highest value quality practices that influenced agile high performance. Perhaps sharing my reply would help. Here is the list of high-impact practices that I sent him and that I think are reflective in an outstanding agile teamŌĆö
- Fostering a whole-team view towards QualityŌĆömoving testers to the front of the line in that they collaborate on the requirements and getting the solutions 'right'.
- Pairing in general: pair-programming, pair-testing, triad-pairing (developer + tester + product owner), paired code reviews, etc.
- Having the ability, willingness, and aggressiveness to stop-the-line and apply corrective action(s) immediately.
- Test planning on an iteration & release basis while initiating whole team collaboration around strategies for what & how to test.
- Applying exploratory testing in a paired fashion, leveraging session-based (charter driven) exploratory testing across teams.
- Performing active agile release planning so that teams gain a broad view towards dependencies & integrationŌĆöincluding a DevOps mindset or continuous deployment (CD) view.
- Naturally applying Unit Testing / TDD (Test-Driven Development) techniques within teams.
- Naturally applying ATDD / BDD (Acceptance Test Driven Development / Behavior Driven Development) - driving Triad collaboration & conversations around. The focus here should be collaboration first and automation second.
- Properly preparing for and conducting powerful sprint reviews or demos that engage stakeholders and customers to provide active feedback.
- The Mike Cohn / Agile Test Pyramid strategy works...so leverage it; includes the notion of multiple tools and layered approaches
Micro-Adjustments & the Stand-up
One of the most misunderstood aspects of agile team is the nature of the teamsŌĆÖ commitment to a body of work in their sprint and then gathering daily to discuss their progress in the daily scrum. You quite often see teams look at their sprint plan as being a fixed set of user stories and their associated tasks. They commit to these ŌĆścardsŌĆÖ and work diligently to execute to their plan.Many teams allow their traditional planning instincts rule too much within their sprints. You see the tasks and stories should only be a means to an end. The Sprint Goal is what the team commits to and in the daily stand-up they should be discussing progress-to-goal. And anything that comes up thatŌĆö
- Impedes or blocks achieving the goal
- Provides new information that adds, changes or removes work to support the goal
- Leads to discovery that influences interpretation of the goalŌĆörefactoring, under/over estimation, interruptions, skill gaps, etc.
These adjustments are goal-based discussions between the team and the Product Owner surrounding goal achievement. Often, they require thinking around changing or jettisoning agreed upon scope within either the sprint or ultimately the release.
These are healthy discussions that get to the root of the agile methods ŌĆ£just enoughŌĆØ and ŌĆ£simplest possible solutionŌĆØ lean principles. Moving from a follow-the-plan focus towards a collaborative, micro-adjustment focus is one of the hallmarks of a high-performance teamŌĆöan agile team that focuses on solving customer problems via their goals.
Wrapping Up
One of my personal improvement reflections in many coaching gigs is not establishing a ŌĆśmodelŌĆÖ or ŌĆśexampleŌĆÖ team quickly enough. ItŌĆÖs usually driven by my need for an example that illustrates good agile practices from the same context that weŌĆÖre initiating agile adoptionŌĆöone that I can ŌĆ£point teams towardsŌĆØ so that they can view an approach or technique beyond my just talking about it.
Brian Marick is a well-respected agile testing consultant & coach. Brian often speaks about the power of an ŌĆ£ExampleŌĆØ and will often ask for oneŌĆöan example for a User Story, an example of an Acceptance Test, an example reflecting the customers problem, an example of a design youŌĆÖre discussing, etc. He even has gone so far as to name his website www.exampler.com. Brian is a firm believer in examples being a wonderful communications device to focus dialogue towards solutions. I agree.
So is the point of this post to create an example team and then be done with it? NO!
ItŌĆÖs to create a model team as part of your agile transformation and then leverage the knowledge gained from them to improve your overall adoption approaches, techniques, and tools so that your consistently raising-the-bar and improving. A team that you can adapt with and learn from, one that is strongly embedded in your organizational culture and problem domain, and a team that can help guide your evolutionŌĆ"simply by example.

Interesting list from Vash. I definitely think Petrenko was one of the most elegant skaters before he went pro and Vegas. Here's two of my favorites from him:
Interesting list from Vash. I definitely think Petrenko was one of the most elegant skaters before he went pro and Vegas. Here's two of my favorites from him:
Adding to the list - Denis Ten! LOVED his SP from Junior Worlds!
His LP at the 1988 Olympics, skated to Don Q. is one of my favorite performances. He was just 18 then, and you could see his natural talent and elegance.
ITA -- in all the focus on the Battle of the Brian's, and the two great performances they skated, Petrenko's is often lost in the shuffle. I remember being gobsmacked by this skate at the time.
The piece is seventy-five minutes long...[l]ong enough for an idea to be developed, but not so long that one starts to measure the number of seats to the exits with desperation if the thing doesnt work" -- Marina Harss
Alexander Zhulin
A lot of them have been already mentioned. I found Johny Weir extraordinary elegant before his transformation in the Diva Bottox he is now
From today, probably Ten and Kozuka. And Katsalapov and Poje are wonderful as well as very handsome
Robin Cousins. Very elegant in an understated way.
Another vote for David Liu. He skate like ballet dancer.
Anton and Sergai are totally elegant as well.
From the current generation; I see no one who have dancer figure and great line like these 3.
I agree with many of the above mentined and would add the following skaters to the list:
Vladimir Kotin
Eric Millot
Axel Mederic
Evgeni Platov
Andreis Vlashenko
Angelo Dolfini

Programming Languages For X Applications
Posted by
Michael Larabel
on 22 September 2012 01:01 AM EDT
Bart Massey, an X.Org Foundation Board of Directors member and Portland State University employee, shared his opinions this week on programming languages for X applications and the web vs. the desktop.
Bart's abstract came down to "A lot of the problems with writing desktop applications are made much worse by using inappropriate programming languages (such as C/C++). I will review some of these problems, discuss alternative languages, and make suggestions about what to do about it all."
Bart brought up open questions concerning why desktop applications are harder to develop than for mobile/web and whether the choice of programming languages is to blame. Bart continued to share his views on different programming languages, shortcomings in his view, and then some feedback from XDC2012 attendees.
Overall it wasn't really X11-specific at all, but just Massey sharing his general programming thoughts. If you're curious about his opinions from academia, the video is embedded below in two parts (there was a power outage to the building part-way through the presentation).

This pice of code is pretty ancient and im unsure if it even works with the latest Visual studio or how easy it is to fix it as i havn't run this code in a few years, i know it works for MSVC++ 6.0 but that version didn't even have namespace implemented.
It would probably be better today to just go for the TGA tutorials and drop this whole glAUX nonsence.

I took the last stitch in the binding of this little gift quilt last night. I still need to get it in the mail but I think it can still be called an early Dec gift.
What a fun little project this was. The pattern is called A Delightful Pairing by Kim Diehl in the Dec issue of AP&Q. I haven't got the next issue yet so I think I got it made in under a month -must be a record for me :0)It warmed up to -16 degrees Celsius today ( in Fahrenheit that's 3 degrees) and the sun came out so I thought I would pop outside for a couple quick pictures. They were quick!
I love the texture of hand applique once its been quilted around by hand. I'm so glad the sun came out today. We've had blizzard conditions the last couple days. Somehow the cold is more tolerable when the sun is shining.
Now I just need to get the rest of my Christmas sewing done... :0)
Happy Quilting!

Lowbrow art started in California, where a group of wonderful wackos incorporated fun elements of popular culture such as pink plastic flamingos, masked Mexican wrestlers, and tiki mugs into their art. Nowadays works by in-demand lowbrow artists, including Shag and Mitch O'Connell, are coveted by collectors; they sell for thousands of dollars in select galleries around the world.... More >>

Celeste And Jesse Forever Official Trailer (2012) HD More info: http://trailers.apple.com Genre: Drama Director: Lee Toland Krieger Cast: Rashida Jones, Andy Samberg, Chris Messina, Ari Graynor, Will McCormack, Emma Roberts, Elijah Wood Writers: Rashida Jones, Will McCormack In theaters: August 3rd, 2012 Synopsis: Celeste (Rashida Jones) and Jesse (Andy Samberg) met in high school, married young and are growing apart. Now thirty, Celeste is the driven owner of her own media consulting firm, Jesse is once again unemployed and in no particular rush to do anything with his life. Celeste is convinced that divorcing Jesse is the right thing to do -- she is on her way up, he is on his way nowhere, and if they do it now instead of later, they can remain supportive friends. Jesse passively accepts this transition into friendship, even though he is still in love with her. As the reality of their separation sets in, Celeste slowly and painfully realizes she has been cavalier about their relationship, and her decision, which once seemed mature and progressive, now seems impulsive and selfish. But her timing with Jesse is less than fortuitous. While navigating the turbulent changes in their lives and in their hearts, these two learn that in order to truly love someone, you may have to let them go. The film is a humorous and honest examination of a broken heart and the long, hard road it takes to heal it.

4 Derry pupils charged after vodka gummy bears found
By Tribune-Review
Published: Tuesday, Nov. 20, 2012, 8:12 a.m.
Four Derry Area High School students have been charged with sharing and eating vodka-soaked gummy bears in school, according to state police.
The students, who aren't being identified because they are juveniles, are being charged with purchase, consumption, possession or transportation of liquor, police said.
The students were caught with the spiked candy Thursday while they were hanging out in the cafeteria of the school, said Trooper Steve Limani, public information officer for Troop A.
School officials became aware of what was occurring after it was reported by other students, school officials said.
The students take classes at the both the high school and Eastern Westmoreland Career and Technology Center, Derry Superintendent David Welling said.
Under district policy, the school principal has the authority to suspend students for up to 10 days, Welling said.
In general, the principal then can recommend to the superintendent that further action be taken, such as an expulsion hearing before the school board, he said.
"It depends on the seriousness of the offense," he added.

Britney Spears has reportedly signed a concert residency deal.
The pop star is believed to have inked the agreement to perform in Las Vegas, Nevada shortly after visiting court on Monday to discuss her conservatorship.
Spears apparently will be contracted to grace the stage at Sin City's Planet Hollywood resort for two years, a source told BreatheHeavy.com.
The stint, which she has been getting in shape for in the last few months, is believed to commence sometime around New Year's Eve.
However an official press conference announcement about the star's new job isn't due until next week.
Apparently she will not reside in the place described as "Disneyland for adults" permanently.
Spears is planning to perform for several consecutive weeks before then being allowed holiday.
Apparently in that time she will return to Los Angeles, California, before heading out to the Vegas desert once again.
The Toxic singer has stayed within the bounds of a conservatorship order since 2008 after she went through a very public meltdown.
The order was put in place after Spears was set in an involuntary psychiatric hold and stripped of visitation rights for her two sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline, which she has since regained.
According to Radar Online, the singer reassured Judge Reva Goetz she is ready and "excited" to be in front of large audiences regularly again.
"The judge was impressed with how happy and excited Britney was," a source told the website.
"Britney assured Goetz she could handle the stress and felt comfortable with the performance schedule."
Her dad, Jamie Spears, is in control of her assets under certain terms for the moment.
Spears is currently working on her eighth studio album after coming back to the music scene following her troubles, with 2008's Circus, 2011's Femme Fatale and a judging role on The X Factor's American version in 2012.

Yvonne Maine was afraid of hospitals. She avoided going to the doctor and was petrified of surgery.
It was this fear that led the Feilding grandmother to natural therapy, and to Te Horo iridologist Ruth Nelson, who specialised in looking into people's eyes to assess their health.
After several years of treatment for various ailments, Mrs Maine revealed a lesion on her scalp that had been diagnosed by a GP as a harmless cyst nearly 40 years earlier.
Mrs Nelson was repulsed - it was "rotting and oozing pus" and had "eaten half [her] head off", she told the health and disability commissioner.
She admitted recognising that the lesion "looked cancerous" and that it was beyond her ability to treat, but she continued to do so anyway.
As the treatment progressed, the women became friendly and even went on holiday together. She did not tell Mrs Maine of her opinions about her condition.
Her treatments, which included washing out the lesion with colloidal silver and picking out dead skin with tweezers, increased to the point where they were spending several hours together every day, so Mrs Maine rented a house close to the clinic.
Initially the lesion appeared to improve, but it later doubled in size and frequently bled, and smelled unpleasant. Mrs Maine became weak and was in severe pain.
Family and friends urged her to see a doctor but she was scared of telling Mrs Nelson she had given up on her treatments.
A pharmacist questioned the amount of painkillers she was taking and suggested she see a doctor.
But she was warned against this by Mrs Nelson, who told her "it wasn't cancer and they probably wouldn't treat it now" and that she would "get a bug or swine flu" if she went to hospital.
By the time Mrs Maine sought conventional treatment 18 months later, the lesion had grown to 15cm by 20cm and had eaten through her scalp, exposing her brain.
The retired preschool teacher was found to have a carcinoma and had major surgery in 2009. But she died the following year.
Just before her death, Mrs Maine and her daughter laid a complaint with the health and disability commissioner, which was upheld in a written decision published yesterday.
Deputy commissioner Tania Thomas found Mrs Nelson had not kept written records of the care she gave, acted unethically by crossing professional boundaries and breached several rights under the Code of Health and Disability Services Consumers' Rights.
Renowned plastic surgeon Swee Tan, who operated on Mrs Maine at Hutt Hospital, said a big part of her scalp and skull had completely eroded down to the dura, which covers the brain.
"It was horrifying to see in this day and age to have such a large cancer essentially neglected," he told the commissioner.
"We were dismayed that she was not referred to any of us to deal with it much earlier on, because we would have been able to help her."
The operation restored her quality of life and enabled her to spend one last Christmas with her family, Prof Tan said.
New Zealand Medical Association chairman Paul Ockelford said Mrs Maine's death was "tragic and avoidable".
It highlighted the issue of whether natural therapists should be regulated. At present, anyone could say they were a naturopath.
Society of Naturopaths spokeswoman Jaine Kirtley said its 200 members were trained to refer clients to medical professionals when the need arose. Mrs Nelson was not a member of the society, which was self-regulated.
Mrs Nelson acknowledged that Mrs Maine needed to see a doctor, but said her philosophy was to put patients' wishes first.
"The mistake I made was not anything to do with the skills or knowledge, it was caring too much," she told the commission.

From NBC's Pete Williams
Although the Senate today turned away Roland Burris, there's a growing number of legal scholars who believe that the US Senate does not have the authority to refuse to seat him.
The Democratic leadership argues that it has the duty to protect the Senate's integrity and that allowing a governor accused of corruption to appoint a senator would taint the body. But that argument is rejected by a growing number of both liberal and conservative legal scholars.
Among the liberals, professor Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the law school at UC Irvine, writes in today's Los Angeles Times: "Allowing the Senate to exclude Burris on any except the narrowest of grounds would create a dangerous precedent. It could open the door to the Senate or the House overturning the will of the people and excluding representatives under one or another pretext. If Burris -- whose appointment meets the legal test, no matter what you think of Blagojevich -- is not seated, other properly elected or appointed representatives also are at risk."
Among the conservatives, Bruce Fein argues that Blagojevich is still the governor, despite the accusations. In today's Washington Times, he says: "That Mr. Blagojevich was under a dark criminal and impeachment cloud when he elevated Mr. Burris is beside the point. President William Jefferson Clinton did not forfeit his power to appoint, sign legislation, or negotiate treaties during his impeachment ordeal. And Democrats are not questioning Mr. Blagojevich's general authority to discharge his gubernatorial responsibilities until or unless he is impeached, convicted and removed from office. Mr. Burris' appointment has been made a lone exception for partisan political reasons."
Some constitutional experts are solidly on the side of the Senate Democrats, including such notables as Harvard's Laurence Tribe. But as this issue gets more attention among the scholars, there's an emerging view that the Senate is wrong.
