How Cissy Houston learned of Whitney's death
Singer died Feb. 11, 2012
Almost a year after Whitney Houston's death, one day before the 2012 Grammy Awards, Cissy Houston is commemorating her daughter's life with "Remembering Whitney" -- the "story of love, loss, and the night the music stopped," according to the book's cover.
While promoting her memoir on "Oprah's Next Chapter," the 79-year-old gospel singer detailed the moment that she learned Whitney, nicknamed Nippy by her family, had died on Feb. 11.
"My son called me and he was screaming, 'Mom, Mommy.' Then, oh God. I said, 'What is wrong, what's wrong?' He just said, 'Nippy. Nippy.' I said, 'What's wrong with Nippy?' ... I was getting annoyed because he wasn't telling me anything.
He said, 'Mommy.' I said, 'Is she dead?' And he said, 'Yeah, Mommy, she's dead.' And I don't remember too much else after that."
Oprah also spoke with Whitney's brother Michael about doing drugs with his late sister.
"It's painful (to see what Cissy wrote in her book), you know? I feel responsible for, that I let it go so far," he said. "Being together most of the time, and her following behind me ... we played together, you know? Any everything that you do together as you're growing up, and then when you get into drugs, you do that together too. And it just got out of hand."

Coloring your nails is an age-old tradition rooted in beauty rituals around the world. Adding a delicate or bright touch of color to the nails is one way that women can express themselves, allowing others to have a glimpse of their personalities and moods. Ever important, the durability of nail lacquer depends not only on the quality of the enamel itself, but also on its proper application and the care that you provide. Get the best results possible by taking the time to apply a base coat before you apply your color. Once the color is in place, take an additional step to apply to top coat. These important steps will protect your new finish and ensure longer wear with fewer chips and scratches.
Nail lacquer is available in a wide range of highly pigmented hues, delivering lots of options. You can use a base coat to help fill in lines while creating an adhesive layer on which to apply your nail polish. Top coats extend the life of color enamel, protecting it from chipping and preserving its gorgeous appearance. They can be reapplied every couple of days in a thin coat in order to prevent unnecessary damage to your nail lacquer. Then, once its time, you can use acetone-free nail lacquer liquid removers or towelettes to provide convenient removal of polish while conditioning your cuticles.

If mobility is a priority, our portable and tabletop podiums will enable efficient transport. Whether you need a church pulpit, conference podium or multimedia lectern, we offer a number of great options. Many of our models come with a complimentary extended warranty, so you can enjoy years of worry-free use.
The basic lectern design includes a raised surface where one can place notes and other materials that are needed for the presentation. However, there are many available enhancements which facilitate a wider range of use. Models that are meant to be used with notes or books have an inclined reading surface with a bookstop which facilitates easy viewing and prevents materials from falling off.
Adjustable-height podiums are ideal because they accommodate speakers of all sizes. They are convenient in any setting, but are particularly useful for a school where they might be used for student government campaign speeches or awards presentations. We also offer a number of mobile models. Casters make it easy to roll your lectern from place to place as needed without requiring too much physical strength or strain.
For a very convenient option that can serve almost any purpose, try the height-adjusting portable podium from OSC. This lightweight lectern can be set up and whisked away in no time. It's compact size takes up very little space, so it is easy to store or keep on the side when not in use.
Clear acrylic podiums have a sleek modern appeal that breaks down the barriers between speaker and audience. Shatterproof acrylic doesn't block the speaker, but provides a comfortable reading surface. The contemporary design is perfect for a high-tech company or anyone who wants to stay on the cutting edge.
In the digital age, plain audio presentations just don't cut it all the time. Our selection of presentation AV carts and multimedia lecterns offers a number of different options which accommodate various electronics. Whether you need to accommodate a laptop, slide projector, document camera or all of the above, our audio-visual options have everything you need. Many include a convenient built-in powerstrip as well. For maximum convenience, choose a model which includes a locking cabinet, so electronics remain secure between presentations. If you prefer to use a desktop computer, you can purchase a lectern which includes a CPU holder and pull-out keyboard tray.
Looking for a podium that can reach thousands? We offer a selection of sound lecterns with built-in microphones and speakers so you don't have to worry about finding the appropriate equipment and hooking it up. The distinguished appearance of OSC sound lecterns is befitting important addresses and distinguished orators. We even offer a model with an LCD screen on the front so you can display your company logo or photos and diagrams during speeches.
If you don't need a full-size lectern but enjoy the comfort of a raised reading surface, try a tabletop podium. This convenient option offers the benefits of a comfortable reading surface without taking up very much room. We even offer tabletop options with user-friendly built-in sound systems.
Lecturers spend hours preparing speeches and presentations, so they deserve to be framed by a lectern that exudes authority and professionalism. Make sure that your voice is heard and your message is clear with an attractive professional podium from Hertz Furniture. Or selection includes many attractive models that are great for schools, churches, companies and anywhere else a podium is needed.

The Dynamic Shift Program (DSP) is part of automatic and Tiptronic® transmissions (the multitronic® has a Dynamic Regulating Program (DRP)). It reduces the driver's workload, particularly in stop-and-go traffic. DSP independently selects the optimum driving range. The transmission automatically recognizes the vehicle's driving characteristics and adapts its shift strategy to the prevailing conditions. DSP-controlled transmissions are also very easy to maintain and, for example, do not need transmission oil changes.

Information is "non-public" until it is widely disseminated to the public (generally through a news release by the Partnership to one or more national wire services). Information is "material" if there is a substantial likelihood that an investor would reasonably consider it important in arriving at a decision to buy, sell or hold securities. It is also generally illegal to communicate (or "tip") material, nonpublic information to others who may trade in securities on the basis of that information. These illegal activities are commonly referred to as "insider trading."
Recent amendments of the federal securities laws have dramatically increased the severity of the penalties for illegal trading or tipping and have greatly enhanced the enforcement powers of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Justice to prosecute such crimes. Potential penalties for insider trading violations include administrative sanctions, damage awards to private plaintiffs, civil fines equal to the greater of $1,000,000 or three times the profits resulting from illegal trading or tipping, as well as criminal fines of up to $1,000,000 and a maximum of ten years in jail.
General Statement
The Company's policy prohibits all Insiders who, by virtue of their relationship with the Company or NRP, have access to Inside Information about the Company, its affiliates (including NRP), or any other publicly traded entity, from (i) buying or selling securities of NRP or such other entity while in possession of such information or (ii) passing on such information, directly or indirectly, to others ("tipping").
Scope of The Policy
Persons Covered by This Policy. This policy shall be strictly adhered to by all Insiders and all members of their immediate families and personal households. All Insiders are responsible for the compliance with this policy by members of their immediate families and personal households.
Transactions Covered by This Policy. This policy applies to all transactions in the securities of NRP and other publicly traded entities, with the exception of the acquisition of securities under Company-sponsored plans such as the Long-Term Incentive Plan. The trading restrictions of this policy do apply, however, to all sales of securities acquired under such plans.
Purpose of the Policy
This policy is implemented (1) to make all Insiders aware of what constitutes Inside Information and the severe consequences that may result from the illegal trading on or tipping of such information, and (2) to protect the Company and its affiliates against legal liability and to preserve the reputation of the Company and its Insiders for integrity and ethical conduct by setting forth procedures to prevent the illegal use of Inside Information.
Compliance Procedures
1. Tipping is Prohibited. All Inside Information is to be held in the strictest confidence and not disclosed to anyone outside the Company, unless and until the information has been properly disseminated to the public. Unauthorized disclosure of any Inside Information learned as a result of an Insider's relationship to the Company or NRP is strictly prohibited. Inside Information is often inadvertently disclosed or overheard in casual, social conversations. Care must be taken to avoid such inadvertent disclosures. This prohibition against tipping includes Inside Information about a company, other than the Company or NRP, learned by an Insider as a result of his relationship with the Company or NRP.
2. Inquiries by Stock Analysts, Investors and the Media. Unless expressly authorized by the Chief Executive Officer, the only persons authorized to communicate with stock analysts, NRP investors or potential investors and members of the media are the Company's Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Vice President – Investor Relations, and General Counsel. All inquiries from stock analysts, NRP investors or potential investors and members of the media, and any inquiry regarding rumors, price movement or activity in the common units of NRP, should immediately be referred to one of the persons designated above.
3. Restrictions on Trading in Securities and Other Entities. If an Insider obtains Inside Information concerning another entity as a result of his relationship with the Company or NRP, such Insider may not trade in the securities of such other entity until at least the third business day after such entity has made a formal public disclosure of such information. (An example of information of this nature would be knowledge of an imminent acquisition of coal properties by such other entity).
Prohibition on Short Sales, Puts, Calls, and Options
All Insiders and members of their immediate families and personal households are prohibited from making any short sales of NRP's securities. Also, no such person may buy or sell puts, calls or options in respect of the NRP's securities at any time without receiving approval from the Company's Vice President and General Counsel.
Short sales are sales of securities that the seller does not own at the time of the sale or, if owned, that will not be delivered within 20 days of the sale. One usually sells short when one thinks the market is going to decline substantially or the stock will otherwise drop in value. If the stock falls in price as expected, the person selling short can then buy the stock at a lower price for delivery at the earlier sale price (this is called "covering the short") and pocket the difference in price as profit. In addition to the fact that it is illegal for directors and officers to sell their company's securities short, the Company believes that it is inappropriate for its Insiders to bet against the securities of NRP or any of its affiliates in this way. Puts, calls and options for Common Units of NRP (other than options granted pursuant to employee benefit plans) also afford the opportunity to profit from a market view that is adverse to NRP and its affiliates, and they carry a high risk of inadvertent securities law violations. All such transactions are prohibited without receiving the approval of the Company's Vice President and General Counsel.
The Company may impose sanctions for failure to comply with the provisions of this policy. Such sanctions may include suspension without pay and dismissal without cause.

Zoeller warns tornado victims not to become victims again
Submitted by WIKY News on Thu, 11/21/2013 - 4:58pm
Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller is warning storm victims of illegitimate contractors who may knock at your door and try to pressure you into a bad deal. He says fly-by-night contractors often travel to weather-related disaster areas to offer home repair, clean-up, debris removal and tree-trimming services. And Hoosiers should know their rights and fully research the company before signing a contract.

Submitted by WIKY News on Wed, 11/20/2013 - 5:04pm
Senator Joe Donnelly is donating his take-home pay for the 16 days of the federal government shutdown, worth $5,000, to food banks across Indiana. Donnelly refused to take the salary he received while partisan gridlock had shut down the government.

He says the shutdown irresponsible and shameful, and he thinks it was inappropriate to accept pay for the 16 days.

Submitted by WIKY News on Wed, 11/20/2013 - 4:59pm

It doesn't take a million bucks to get into the top 1 percent.
In fact, it took a little less than $370,000 in adjusted gross income in 2010 to make it into this elite group, according to newly released data from the Internal Revenue Service. That's up slightly from the $352,000 the year before.
But on average, the top 1 percent earned $1.12 million, up from $980,000 the year before.
The top 1 percent have been in the spotlight since Occupy Wall Street protesters first began camping out in cities across the U.S. last fall. The presidential campaign also centered on the haves and have nots, with President Barack Obama calling for tax increases on the rich and challenger Mitt Romney arguing that taxing the wealthy would hurt the economy.
That fight continues as the two parties look to resolve the fiscal cliff crisis.
The fortunes of the top 1 percent are highly dependent on the stock market since much of their wealth comes from investments. Looking at the past decade, the club had its most exclusive year in 2007, when the stock market was roaring. It took more than $426,000 in adjusted gross income to make it into the top 1 percent that year.
There were 1.35 million households that qualified for entry. They earned nearly 19 percent of the nation's income and paid roughly 37 percent of its income tax.
The growth of the top 1 percent's income has been the subject of heated debate over the past year as data show their earnings growing far faster than the less fortunate.
Incomes for the top 1 percent grew 241 percent between 1979 and 2007, compared to 11 percent for the bottom fifth and 19 percent for the middle fifth, according to statistics compiled by the left leaning Economic Policy Institute.

The dynamic cornering light is part of the adaptive light system and illuminates your way by pivoting the headlight module to follow the twists and turns in the road ahead. This greatly improves illumination of the road in front of the vehicle and to the sides, making it easier for the driver to anticipate the course of the road ahead. On the basis of several parameters including vehicle speed, steering angle and yaw rate, the system's control function calculates the necessary change in the position of the headlights and gives out the necessary signals.

For gleaming, touchably-soft hair, it is essential that you regularly apply a conditioner. This type of hair product works by repairing and nourishing the outermost layer of the hair shaft called the cuticle. The cuticle is made up of overlapping cells that lay flat when the hair is healthy and stand up when the hair is damaged. Damaged hair is common - hair color appears dull and the hair feels rough and looks frizzy. This damage is usually caused by chemical treatments, sun exposure, and the overuse of hair care products and styling tools. To address any cuticle weakness, all hair types can benefit from a weekly reparative mask conditioning treatment, one that will deeply hydrate and strengthen. For daily use moving forward, it's important to choose a conditioner that will best pamper your hair type.
Conditioners are formulated to treat different concerns. Restore radiance to colored hair. Turn tangled, kinky hair into manageable, shiny curls. Add volume to limp, fine hair. Boost moisture in dry, chemically-treated hair. These conditioners can be combed through damp hair and then rinsed out with cool water. To further protect your hair before styling, apply a leave-in conditioner before you blow dry and flat iron. And to shield your hair against the harmful effects of the sun, look for conditioners that contain UV protection.

Ryan Gosling is staffing up his directorial debut, "How To Catch A Monster."
Variety reports that "Doctor Who" actor Matt Smith has landed a role in the fantasy noir, which also stars Christina Hendricks and Gosling's reported girlfriend, Eva Mendes. Smith, 30, is taking the lead male role.
According to a casting website, "How To Catch A Monster" combines "fantasy noir, horror and suspense into a modern day fairytale." The script, which Gosling also wrote, centers on Billy (played by Hendricks), a single mom of two sons.
The "Mad Men" star previously described her character as "supporting two children and trying to provide a home for them and a place of comfort in a continuously harder place to be."
Eventually, so says the film's synopsis, Billy's "swept into a macabre and dark fantasy underworld while Bones, her 18-yr-old son, discovers a secret road leading to an underwater town. Both Billy and Bones must dive deep into the myster, if their family is to survive."

For weeks now I�ve wanted to offer words of comfort and healing, to somehow string together nouns and verbs in a way that they might become a balm for us all. But I have had no words, no wisdom to share.
Even my prayers have been short and repetitive: Please, help us.
I don�t think I�m alone in this, this place of leaning on the Unseen because I can�t believe my eyes � because I don�t want to believe my eyes. So, I�m doing the only thing that seems to make sense to me. I�m making myself write about hope for 40 days.
When you study writing, you hear about the importance of descriptive language and rhythm and tone. When you practice writing, you learn that it�s just as much about organizing your thoughts and taking a microscope to what you believe.
And right now I need to thoroughly examine hope. I need to see what it looks like in the light and in the dark, and I need to write it down so I remember how the story ends, how good trumps evil. Always.
I need this.
I�m starting Feb. 13, which is Ash Wednesday, in hopes that my heart will be better prepared to celebrate Easter. I�d be honored if you chose to join me and to send some of your own thoughts on hope. Maybe you could write about how you�ve found hope in the middle of your troubles or tell us about something wonderful happening. For those whose creative outlet is music or art, would share a song recommendation or a painting or photograph?
How about designing a journal page to share with us? I have seven already but I�d love to offer 40 unique and inspiring pages that people could download and write on.�Imagine how beautiful a journal like that would be.
Maybe we�ll find we don�t need many words. Maybe we�ll find hope alone is our balm.
Update: I introduced this idea a couple of weeks ago here at this blog and then shared it with readers of the Rochester (NY) Democrat and Chronicle. They have been generously sharing their thoughts on hope ever since. I do still have room for more, though… especially for those who would like to create a journal page. If you are interested, here are the details:
