Posted: 09/09/2010
DETROIT (WXYZ) - Former Detroit City Council President Monica Conyers has reported to prison in West Virginia.
Conyers reported early Friday afternoon, a day after a federal appeals court denied her request for bond while she appealed her sentence in the City Hall Corruption case.
The United States Court of Appeals found that Conyers' request did not meet the standard set for bond in cases like hers.
In deciding whether or not someone should be let out on bond during an appeal, the court considers the likelihood that the defendant will win the appeal, and if that victory will result in the defendant getting a new trial, or being released altogether.
Thursday's ruling indicates that the court does not believe this will be the case in regards to Conyers' appeal.
According to paperwork filed with the Bureau of Prisons, Conyers will serve her time at FPC Alderson in Alderson, West Virginia. The facility, which is also known as Camp Cupcake, is where Martha Stewart served her five month prison sentence after being convicted of lying to investigators about a stock sale.
In March, Conyers was sentenced to 37 months in prison after accepting a plea deal in 2009. As part of the deal, Conyers admitted to taking a bribe to vote in favor of the Synagro sludge contract.
At her sentencing, Conyers attempted to withdraw her plea but that was denied. She is now appealing the ruling.

Don't let us down, Mr. President
Linda Heard, an Arab News journalist, comments on the eagerly awaited inauguration of Barack Obama, the 44th US President, and the first African-American to rule the United States.
January 20, 2009 3:08 by Linda Heard
If there is a sense of knife-edged anticipation here as to the final shaping of Obama's Middle East policy, it is no less in Israel. It's no accident that the Israeli government picked a pre-Obama window of opportunity to launch its onslaught on Gaza and now seeks any face-saving pretext to scurry out before Obama's daughters get their promised puppy.
We will not have to wait long to discover whether an Obama administration can be an honest broker in the Israel-Palestine conflict. Within the coming days, America's new commander-in-chief will be obligated to speak out on Gaza, which he has so far refrained from doing citing "there is only one president at a time".
Will he stick to the Bush line, which is basically Israel has the right to do anything? Or will he echo what just about every other world leader is saying, including his ally Britain's Gordon Brown, who says Israel has used excessive force during an offensive that has cost too many lives? Let's keep an open mind. Let's reserve judgment. And in the meantime, let's congratulate the American people on their pick and wish Obama well in his new job. Good luck, Mr. President! You're going to need every ounce of it you can get. Please don't let us down!

Reasonably well written Linda. I cant agree with you more when you say let us congratulate the Americans for a good choice. Yes indeed, after such a woeful and miserable second term they gave to Mr Bush.
This world cant be won by any means but love. Obama has shown willingness to tread that route. Now, as he shifts back to Bible, I hope the main character of the Bible, Jesus Christ, inspires Obama to spread love, peace, happiness and friendly attitude around the world. Let us hope that he wins the hearts of the global citizen and stops the bossy attitude of an American. Let us also hope that he spends no time for violence and war and spreads amity among nations. If this is achieved, all else will fall in place.
At the same time, it is not fair for us to hope and need Obama to turnaround a down-in-the-dumps economy so swiftly. He will ultimately succeed no doubt because he has nothing to lose. What he has inherited is a ZERO, if not a BIG NEGATIVE from Bush. I know for sure that Obama cant take it anywhere backwards. Next 4 years will rebuild the world. May Christ help Obama on this path. So,
onward march, get set, GO.

CBS-FM has a fun feature called Turntable Tuesday. Once an hour, we play an "oh wow" record from vinyl. I feel like Dr. Johnny Fever when I "cue up" a record.
Happy 50th birthday to Pebbles Flintstone. She was born to Wilma and Fred during the episode that aired on February 22, 1963. The producers say Pebbles was born on February 22, 10,000 BC, but we'll go with the date of her prime time debut.
And that got us thinking about the pop star she shares a name with. Pebbles of 1980s AD had her first taste of fame exactly 25 years ago. "Girlfriend" was climbing the charts on its way to the top 5.

Actress Drew Barrymore's Halloween bash was in for a trouble as her neighbours complained about the noise to the cops.
The 36-year-old threw a huge party at her Hollywood Hills home to mark the spooky holiday but those living nearby were disturbed with the noise levels, reported TMZ online.
After having a word with the cops, Barrymore agreed to keep the noise down and no further action was taken.
The actress isn't the only celebrity to get into the Halloween spirit by throwing a huge bash.
Supermodel Heidi Klum wowed the crowd at her party at Tao Las Vegas by arriving on a gurney in a skinless corpse costume.
Speaking about the ensemble, which needed three and a half hours with a makeup artist to complete, she said:"This is my thirteenth Halloween party this year and I wanted something different. I was thinking how it would look if I had all my skin ripped off, and so.

Thirteen charged in timeshare telemarketing scheme
- Staff South Florida Business Journal
Thirteen employees of Timeshare Mega Media and Marketing Group have been charged in a telemarketing scheme to defraud timeshare unit owners.
According to the charges, the defendants allegedly called timeshare owners to request $1,996 for fees, such as closings costs and a title search associated with the sale of their units, when in fact no buyer existed.
Timeshare unit owners were also allegedly called by another Timeshare Mega Media and Marketing Group employee to "verify" the fees associated with the sale and have owners admit on tape that the company could charge their credit card. The defendants were also allegedly instructed by co-conspirators not to give closing dates for the timeshare unit sale or, if needed, give a closing date more than 60 days after receipt of the money.
Defendants Scott Faraguna, Charles Blomquist, Peter Borkowicz, Raymond Harcar, James Taylor, Ryan Greene, Jason Hampton, Chris Faccone, Steven Sokoloff, Marco Sguera, Joseph Giancola, Ryan Soltow and Donna Ackermann Brown have been charged with an information, which usually means a plea deal is pending.
If convicted, the defendants face a statutory maximum of five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.
Faraguna's attorney, Scott William Sakin, said: "Mr. Faraguna feels very bad about what happened, and he was taken advantage of and wants to make amends."
An indictment of others could be filed, Sakin added.
Timeshare fraud has been something the Florida Attorney General's Office has looked to minimize.
Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Tuesday that she was joining state Rep. Eric Eisnaugle, R-Orlando, and state Senate Majority Leader Andy Gardiner, R-Orlando, to unveil an initiative that will protect consumers from timeshare resale fraud – the No. 1 complaint the Attorney General's Office has received over the past two years, according to a news release.
"We cannot allow unscrupulous individuals to mislead and defraud our consumers who are attempting to sell their timeshares, many of whom have invested their life savings into their dream vacation homes," Bondi said in a statement.

WASHINGTON — A new digital tool to test academic and behavioral skills will target students starting in kindergarten.
ACT, the organization that developed the ACT college-entrance exam, will start testing the tool in the fall. It will be available to schools starting in 2014.The tool tracks students' career interests, academic performance and progress toward goals. It's designed to follow students from kindergarten through high school.
Jon Erickson, president of ACT's education division, said the goal is to identify and address gaps in skills needed for college and the workforce. The assessment combines traditional testing with teacher-led projects to generate an instant, digital score.
It's a multimillion dollar project, ACT officials said, but will be affordable and easily accessible.
Schools won't be compelled to use the new tool, but Erickson said he anticipates that entire states or groups of states will choose to utilize it. The tool can be customized to include state-specific benchmarks and other performance measures.

Idea of Healthy Obesity Is Tested
December 9, 2013
Michael Jaffe called to reschedule his appointment at Lasik Vision in Garden City, N.Y., a routine follow-up to the vision-correcting surgery he underwent in January. The recorded message still started with a cheery greeting, but went on to say there was no one to pick up the phone: ''Due to circumstances beyond our control, we are unable to take your call or to see patients at the Garden City office. This may be a permanent arrangement.''
For most of his life, James Mulroy of Staten Island had better than 20/20 vision. Eight years ago, when he was already in his 50's, a decade later than most people, he started needing reading glasses to see close up. Then a couple of years ago, although he could still see clearly at far distances, the sphere of blurriness started expanding outward. He was becoming farsighted.
Harriet Bass lay on a table at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary, her right eye propped open by a metal ring, staring up at a red dot of light. ''You're going to feel a little pressure,'' Dr. John A. Seedor told Ms. Bass, a 49-year-old casting director, as he was about to slice into her cornea. Using a motorized blade known as a keratome, Dr. Seedor cut a circular flap around the cornea, about one-third of an inch wide and one-150th of an inch thick, and peeled it back.
ONCE a week, the mothers gather. Working mothers stressed about juggling family needs. Moms at home with small children, seeking commiseration and the companionship of other mothers. Like an umbilical cord, the commonality keeps drawing them back, talking about issues they can't discuss with their mothers, sisters or even husbands, sharing experiences in a nonjudgmental, confidential, non-advice-giving way.
Dr. Mark Shulman, first fitted for glasses at age 5, was never happy about his dependence on them. They would fog up in winter or get clouded with sweat in summer when he pursued the outdoor activities he loved. To see clearly when he did his daily swim, he needed prescription goggles. Contact lenses didn't work for him. So at age 61 he invested about $5,000 in laser surgery to correct his myopia and astigmatisms by reshaping his corneas and to enable him to do everything but read without glasses. Dr. Shulman, a retired professor of meteorology living in Woodstock, N.Y., couldn't be more delighted. His distance vision is now better than 20/20. He sees well at night and can drive without glasses despite a slight loss of depth perception.
I'M lying on my back, clutching a stuffed toy elephant and a wad of wet tissues. My jaw is clenched, my limbs are tense, my shoulder blades are hot-wired to my chair. I am not having a breakthrough in therapy, though I am about to change my life. I am one moment away from having elective surgery on my eyes -- both of them -- and am well into white-knuckle territory. ''Bonnie, are you ready?'' says a gentle voice directly behind my head.
After wearing glasses for 31 years, Debrah Ward jumped at a chance last May to give them up. Instead of receiving laser surgery, an alternative to contact lenses and eyeglasses, Ms. Ward had clear polymer arcs implanted in her nearsighted right eye. The arcs, known as Intacs, are an experimental treatment made by Keravision, a tiny California company. The arcs, which can be inserted during a 10-minute procedure in an ophthalmologist's office, flatten the cornea to correct mild nearsightedness, or myopia, a condition that affects some 22 million Americans.
Sharon McCormack of White Salmon, Wash., loved windsurfing the Columbia River Gorge, but she had a problem on the big jumps: Her contact lenses washed out. ''Or I got dust under a lens,'' she said. ''That's incredibly painful.'' Ms. McCormack solved the problem by having laser surgery to correct her nearsightedness. More than 400,000 laser vision procedures will be done this year, industry sources say, most of them for nearsightedness, or myopia, like Ms. McCormack's. But next year, farsighted surfers and others may be having laser surgery, too.
EVERY once in awhile, Sandy Riddle does this funny move with her fingers up the profile of her nose, as if she's adjusting an imaginary pair of eyeglasses. It's not surprising. For more than 20 years, she needed very thick lenses to see. As of December, however, she has better than 20/20 vision. And Joe Beitz still reaches for his glasses before he catches himself with a satisfied chuckle. A few weeks ago, he mastered the eye chart at 20/15 vision.
RED eyes signaled the beginning of the end of Richard Sandulli's days as a contact-lens wearer. Over the last few months, Mr. Sandulli's eyes have grown more and more irritated as he has worked long hours in front of a computer, designing and marketing derivatives for his Wall Street employer. But, knowing that two colleagues had undergone laser surgery on their eyes and were now contact-free, Mr. Sandulli, who is 35, has decided to take the plunge himself. He plans to spend $5,500 for a 25-minute operation this month at a Manhattan surgery clinic, and then to close the book on 25 years of nearsightedness.

Formula One: Sauber to use Ferrari V6 engines next year after partnership extension
YEONGAM, SOUTH KOREA (REUTERS) - The Sauber Formula One team will continue to be powered by Ferrari next season after announcing an extension of their technical partnership on Friday.
The Swiss-based team said in a statement at the Korean Grand Prix that they would use the complete Ferrari powertrain, which includes engine and gearbox and energy recovery system, as part of a multi-year agreement.
Sauber have a long-standing relationship with the Italian manufacturer and have used their engines since they split with BMW at the end of 2009. They were also powered by Ferrari between 1997 and 2005.
The engine rules are going through major change next season with the current V8 being replaced by a turbocharged V6 with energy recovery systems.

Updated: 14 Sep 2013 09:06 GMT+02:00
German Chancellor Angela Merkel may be called the world's most powerful woman but like trailblazers such as Hillary Clinton and the late Margaret Thatcher, she is careful how she plays the gender card.
Merkel, 59, mowed down scores of male rivals on her rise to the top, however she has rarely promoted women's causes during her eight years in office.
And in her bid for a third term in a September 22nd general election, she has strikingly played up her feminine side in a way that has stunned some observers.
"The chancellor is working on a bit of image improvement largely aimed at women voters and meant to transform Merkel the eurozone crisis-solving machine back into a politician with a human face," news weekly Der Spiegel said earlier this year as Merkel began her pivot.
Current polls indicate she enjoys a strong lead among female voters over her chief rival, Peer Steinbrück of the Social Democrats, as she does with the electorate as a whole.
With 32 million female voters versus 30 million male, the women's vote will be crucial in what is expected to be a tight race for a ruling coalition.
On her campaign website www.angela-merkel.de, the leader nicknamed "Mutti (Mummy) by her own party for her soothing, no-nonsense style touts her domestic proclivities.
Forbes magazine's most powerful woman in the world for seven of her eight years in office and the proud recipient of a doctorate in physics is seen heavily made-up, gazing adoringly at her chemist husband.
One could be forgiven for thinking he was the candidate.
"At home far from the hurly-burly of politics I can free my mind, read and gather my strength with my family," she writes, in what several commentators called a turn at "playing the housewife".
"I love to cook and my favourite dishes are roulades (braised meat rolled around a filling) and potato soup. My husband rarely complains. Except when I don't put enough crumble on the cake."
Journalist and author Bascha Mika said Merkel was playing a tactical game with what she called the sexist term "Mutti".
"She took what was an insult and transformed it into an image as mother of the nation -- she cares, she has everything under control," Mika told AFP, echoing what commentators have called Merkel's "political jujitsu".
"I find that so clever but also so insidious because she treats voters like children and says 'don't worry, I've got this'. It's extreme de-politicisation."
Merkel's rivals accuse her of snuffing out unpleasant debates on issues such as military action in Syria or debt forgiveness for Greece to lull voters into complacency.
In May, Merkel spoke to women's magazine Brigitte, revealing she finds "nice eyes" attractive in men and has a "camel-like" ability to store energy for sleepless all-night summits.
During the rollicking discussion with two of its journalists at a Berlin theatre, she made a telling comment: "I'm not a feminist but I'm an interesting case when it comes to potential female role models."
Mika noted that Merkel's life and times, including her upbringing under communism, indeed made her an interesting case.
"She can be tough, unemotional, ruthless and merciless but she doesn't make a show of it in the way that Clinton or Thatcher might have done to hold their own with men. Merkel doesn't need to stand up and say 'I'm a strong woman' because she simply is," she said.
"Women from (communist) East Germany tend to be wonderfully pragmatic --they grew up with women in the working world so they see nothing unusual about it," said the Polish-born Mika.
Consequently, Merkel has steadily co-opted her opponents' issues, such a boosting benefits for working parents including incentives for fathers to take paternity leave.
At the same time she has reluctantly backed a bonus for stay-at-home mothers favoured by her Bavarian allies, the Christian Social Union, who face a re-election battle on Sunday.
And under pressure from her Labour Minister, rising star Ursula von der Leyen, Merkel has now accepted the goal of a binding 30-percent female quota in company boardrooms from 2020.
Meanwhile Steinbrück has stumbled from gaffe to gaffe as a candidate, notably putting down Merkel's popularity to a "women's bonus" she enjoyed rather than her achievements in office.
He sparked a storm of derision and online ridicule on Thursday by allowing himself to be photographed making the vulgar middle-finger gesture.
But there is already palpable excitement about a potential female successor for Merkel; Hannelore Kraft the leader of Germany's most-populous state North Rhine-Westphalia.
Much has been Merkel's impact that if, as her aides say, she opts not to stand for re-election in 2017, the race could well shape up as battle between two women, Kraft and von der Leyen.

August 8 (Monday, Day 1, Flying to London, England) -
We arrived at KCI just fine and found out that the flight to Chicago was delayed. We went to the American Airlines lounge and enjoyed the free sodas and chips. The receptionist made an announcement that the flight was boarding so the lounge emptied out but the gate agent then said that OHare was in a ground stop so we wouldnt board for another 30 minutes. Back to the lounge we went. We weren't worried since we had a 2-hour layover in Chicago. We finally boarded the flight and landed in Chicago and enjoyed 20 minutes at the OHare Admirals Lounge just long enough to use nice bathrooms and get a quick snack.
