The Mendocino County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously on Tuesday to approve the recommended balanced budget for the county in the coming 2012-13 fiscal year which begins July 1.
The board will hold public hearings on the recommendations in September at which time it will finalize the document and approve it.
In the meantime, the board heard general outlines of the budget outlook from both the CEO's office and the auditor's office.
CEO Carmel Angelo told the board that the budget - approximately $150 million with about $59 million of that discretionary general fund spending by the board - contained no layoffs and no substantial deficit.
"We look OK. We could be better, but we look OK," she said. "Our status is still fragile."
Angelo pointed out that with no major development in the county, revenues are fairly flat and while employees have had a 10 percent pay cut, the increases in health care and retirement costs have eaten that up.
"We don't have 10 percent savings," she warned.
Lloyd Weer, assistant auditor, standing in for elected Auditor Meredith Ford, who has been out of the office with an illness for more than a year, gave the board an overview of the revenues expected in the coming year. Overall, the outlook is slightly positive, according to his figures. The revenues that pay for the county's discretionary general fund money come from property taxes, transient occupancy taxes (known as bed taxes), sales taxes and the public safety tax.
On property taxes, Weer said, "we are seeing a yearlong trend of a little trickle up," of about one-quarter or a half percent.
Sales and use taxes are showing a 3 percent to 4 percent growth, as is the public safety tax. Weer projected $59,238,000 in discretionary revenues.
Supervisor John Pinches jumped in to point out that that number was the same revenue figure as five years ago, showing just how much revenues overall have dropped for local government, while expenses keep climbing, necessitating the cuts that have been forced on government.
"I want the public to understand that," he said.
Supervisor John McCowen said he was not sure that the housing situation was stable enough to predict even a trickle of growth in property taxes, but Weer said the trend is solid and he feels confident.
Next, CEO deputy Kyle Knopp began the overview of the budget, telling the board that the CEO's office had focused on four main priorities:
Preventing layoffs
Protecting the general fund reserves
Stabilizing the system
Looking forward past a 12-month horizon
Knopp reminded the board that last year the CEO's office had started with a premise of cutting 15 percent of county cost from each department budget. This year, Knopp said, the CEO's budget assumes maintenance funding of whatever the department had last year although there are some places where the CEO is adding and some places where cuts are suggested.
Among the places where the CEO is suggesting spending for additional personnel is the auditor's office. With Ford off the job for a prolonged period, the auditor's office has struggled to keep up with the workload, especially trying to work through an economic crisis.
"During this crisis there's been a lot of reliance on the auditor's office and the county needs a strong auditor," Knopp noted.
Other places where spending will likely increase are juvenile hall and the probation department, which have seen significant increases in retirement costs, Knopp said. The CalWorks and foster care programs also will see increases dictated in part by state and federal laws.
Knopp noted that the county general fund reserves will be maintained (expected to get to about $4.5 million under this budget) but the county will not be able to afford to add to them this year.
With revenues at $59,238,000 and expenses projected at $60,275,572, the county is left with a $1,037,572 overall deficit.
The CEO's office suggested solving the problem by using money normally paid right out of property taxes each year to the county road fund. This year the road fund set-aside was $3.3 million. The CEO suggested taking $1.3 million of that and paying off two large debts on the books - one for $884,386 and one for $469,572 - and balancing the budget. (See related story Page 1).
Beyond the long discussion about the road fund transfer, there was little discussion about the budget itself.
DA David Eyster said he was concerned about cuts to his budget given the extra work two newly appointed judges will bring into the courthouse and the amount of money he has saved the county with programs he has initiated.
The Alternate Defender's Office's Patricia Littlefield raised a concern about two positions in her office that seem to be lined out of the budget even though she plans to fill them and has one in recruitment now. That problem may have been a miscommunication, and Angelo said she was sure it could be resolved.
Public Defender Linda Thompson also pointed out the dire personnel crisis in her office and the fact that she has to scramble just to find someone to cover traffic court. She noted too that the new judges will create more work for her office.
Pinches made the motion to approve the recommended budget with the proviso that the motion include the consensus that the reduction in the road fund transfer is a one-time occurrence. It appeared the motion might not get a second so board Chairman John McCowen passed the gavel over to Vice Chairman Supervisor Dan Hamburg (the chairman is not allowed to make or second motions) and seconded the motion.
Supervisor Carre Brown said she was upset that despite her objections to the practice last year, this preliminary budget once again includes new fees and increased fees that had not yet been voted upon by the board (although they were scheduled to later in that day's meeting). The total fee amount was only $3,000 "but it's the principle," Brown said. She said with those fees in the budget she would vote no. So the board agreed to amend the motion to indicate that no new fees or increased fees were part of the budget at that point.
Supervisor Kendall Smith then said she wanted to make sure that the CEO's office did everything needed to address the concerns of the Alternate Defender and Public Defender. She declined to make it part of the motion but the board agreed to give the CEO direction to address those concerns.
After that the vote was unanimous.

It was bye-bye Britney Fierce on Wednesday. We are, of course, talking about Winston Hills dance teacher Davin Griffiths-Jones and his drag persona in the reality television competition I Will Survive which, in its own way, has ''given him a sign''.
''I realised how pretty I looked as a girl,'' he said.
''I think now people will expect me to come out as Britney Fierce in my [dance school's stage] show Priscilla to Moulin Rouge.''
He said he was seriously considering including her in his show, which features hits from Australian movie musicals including Priscilla.
Far from being disappointed with his elimination from I Will Survive, Griffiths-Jones said he was ''actually quite relieved because our hours were insane and the pressure and stress was getting to me".
''There are some contestants who really wanted it, but for me ... not so much,'' he told the Sun.
Griffiths-Jones was one of 12 contestants on the show, which searches for Australia's ultimate triple threat – industry speak for a skilled dancer, singer and actor.
Contestants sing, dance and act for resident judges Jason Donovan and Stephan Elliott, famous for directing the monster hit musical film Priscilla.
''I'm a reality TV addict and I knew there had to be a villain character and I sort of took on that role and was always saying things that I knew would ruffle some feathers,'' Griffiths-Jones said.
''Critiquing people's performances, how they dance and sing, but never personally attacking them.
''A lot of people are telling me I suit reality TV, that I should have my own reality show, but I'm not sure what will happen.
''I'm getting recognised so much, it's unbelievable.
''I think it's the hair — I'm 'that guy'.
''I also got a lot of air time on the show.''
Not surprisingly, the 31-year-old lists his hair straightener as his prized possession, as well as his three dogs.
''I would still like to do a show like The Amazing Race or Celebrity Apprentice because you won't be as worried that people are judging you on what you do for a living,'' he said.
Asked about his favourite travel destination on I Will Survive, he chose Broken Hill.
''We stayed in the same hotel where Priscilla was filmed and we were getting our make-up done in the Priscilla suite,'' he said.
So who will ''survive''?
''Now that I'm watching it on TV [he arrived home two months ago], I really do think Tom [Sharah] deserves it, because he is different,'' Griffiths-Jones said.
He said keeping the winner's name secret had been difficult.
''I'm pretty good at keeping secrets but it's been hard not telling my students because they keep asking,'' he said.
Griffiths-Jones first rocketed to stardom on Ten's Star Search when he was 10.
He was recognised as an Australian child prodigy, whose career took him across the globe to perform.
Then, he opened the Davin Griffiths-Jones School of Performing Arts in his home town of Winston Hills when he was just 19.
I Will Survive airs on Ten on Tuesdays from 7.30pm.

PTSD sidelines first-responder to shooting of Manchester police officer
Last month, Beland quietly took a disability retirement after 22 years with the Manchester Police Department, unable to work because of the post-traumatic stress disorder that followed Doherty's shooting.
Long associated with war veterans, PTSD is gaining a foothold among people with no exposure to war. The recently released fifth edition of the "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders" adds language that specifically mentions first responders and rape victims, according to the Vermont-headquartered National Center for PTSD, which is part of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
Paula Schnurr, a psychologist and deputy director of National Center for PTSD, said the diagnosis of PTSD first appeared in 1980. It has grown in acceptance since then, especially after 9/11, Hurricane Katrina and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, she said.
Emergency aid
Beland and two other police officers arrived seconds after Doherty was shot. Officers Brandon Murphy and Thomas Gonzalez worked on his legs, where five bullets had struck Doherty. Beland handled everything above the waist.
At home that night, Beland said, he cried with his family and thought the trauma would work itself out. But he talked about Doherty nonstop and wanted to visit him frequently.
On April 16, Beland collapsed in his bathroom. The following month, he collapsed during the ceremony with Gatsas, and it seemed obvious his career was over. With one child in college and the other in high school, Beland said, he was not ready to retire.
A Manchester native, Beland joined the police department after graduating from St. Anselm College. He was one of the first on a bicycle patrol. As a detective, he worked the Mary Stetson murder, a case in which the victim's torso was found in a West Side river.
"Every single case I looked at, I looked at in a clinical way," Beland said. His colleagues warned that he would take his work home with him, and he did. He brought files home to work late at night, but it never affected him, he said.
"We recognize that police officers, firemen, first responders ... you think of what they do on a daily basis, it can have an effect on them," he said.
Beland was on workers' compensation since his collapse, and last month the city made a $100,000 payment to settle any future claims, Beland said. The city remains responsible for any health care bills related to the PTSD, he said.
"It has to stop on its own," Beland said about his seizures. "My brain has abnormal, unbalanced energy, and it has to get rid of it. It's like my brain throwing up."
Beland remains on six medications and sees three clinicians: a neurologist, a therapist and an "eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapist," who uses a treatment that teaches the brain to file away traumatic events correctly.
He wants to write a book about his experiences with PTSD as a police officer. He also is considering drug-and-alcohol counseling, a profession that would allow him to help out the kind of people he often arrested - street-level junkies who sold drugs to support their habits.
"It was so nice getting up to meet with them," Beland said. "I felt I had a purpose again."

Fortunately, most of these are very uncommon. In fact according to the American Society for Bariatric Surgery 2004 Consensus Statement 1, the operative morbidity (complications) associated with gastric banding in the hands of an experienced surgeon is less than 5% and the risk of dying during the procedure (operative mortality) is approximately 0.1% (1:1000)1. For gastric bypass in the hands of a skilled surgeon the operative morbidity is around 5% and mortality around 0.5% (1:200).
Clearly these risks cannot be ignored. However, they have to be set against the health risks associated with obesity – heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, cancer etc. Evidence suggests that an obese 20-year-old man may have his life expectancy cut by as many as 13 years compared with normal-weight people2. For an obese 20-year-old woman, the reduction is 8 years. Even at 40 years of age, obese males and females lose approximately 7 years of life expectancy3.
Hence if you have a serious weight problem, the risks of a surgical intervention may be very much smaller than the risk of doing nothing.

BY A SERIES of publications 1-9 beginning in 1944, Ekbom has revived interest in "the syndrome of restless legs" which, although first described in 1685,10 had been almost completely neglected in the medical literature. As he defines it, the clinical features are straightforward and easily recognized. Patients with the condition complain of discomfort in the legs and sometimes the thighs as well. The discomfort is usually described as having an aching, crawling, or restless quality. The distinctive feature is that it commences when the legs are immobile and that it is lessened when they are moved, with more lasting relief being given if the patient walks about. Manifestations are often worse when the patient is in bed at night. Many possible etiologic factors have been reported, but in essence the cause or causes of the condition remain unknown and the results of treatment are variable.

ohmiGene 5.xx is there!
A genealogy created on Mac (Mac OS X) works on PC (Windows), and vice versa. ohmiGene works exclusively in the folder which contains it. Consequently, an USB key containing a working folder with the three versions of ohmiGene (MacIntel, PowerPC or Windows) can be connected on any computer : ohmiGene is immediately operational. Data are handled with the encoding UTF8 : languages as the cyrillic can be used.
The structure of the database was defined to be in maximal agreement with the GEDCOM format. If any context concerning the submission of a file to the church LDS is absent, almost totality of the other contexts are correctly handled (import, manipulation and export...) : individual records ou family records, evnts, attributes ... without forgetting the relations (tag ASSO), the multiple identities, neither the possible doubles (tag ALIA) ... contexts often ignored by many software ! ohmiGene is a software which respects a GEDCOM file at import (and export). It is very rare!

Feels like watching pre-school kids counselling.
This will end up not going anywhere, and he'll end up doing what he said in the first post, take B and be a coward to A. |

Click to show or hide Naruuki wrote: Dabrush wrote: Seems like people here are not actually giving any real advice, but since nobody will ever hear about it again: Ich have a problem with two girls, let's just say A and B. A is really silent and I do not know much about her. I like her, but as I said, there are not much things that I can like about her since I just do not know anything. She is in my class and I will most likely meet her again at June 11th. I met the other girl at a Comic convention and we almost never really meet, but we had lots of conversations via mail. She is interested in manga and also draws really good and I think that she is the one I really like. Until now there does not seem to be any kind of problem, but now let's get to the real thing: A confessed her love to me about a week ago. I said that I did not want to talk about it on the internet and asked her to wait until school starts again. This is where the trouble starts. I am really bad at being a jerk and to solve this it seems like I have to be a jerk. Also, I haven't been feeling very well lately and when I had problems with my last relationship, I also had massive problems with my stomach and headaches. As I said, the one girl is really silent and shy. I've been like that, too until some years ago, so I know how hard this must have been for her and how it might drag her down if I refuse. So is there any way of solving this wthout being mean or destroying her self esteem? Well. heres the question Where did B go? you've only talked about A i cant really give you an advice if there's only one girl being talked about but you adressed that theres two. and at the begining. you did say you you like A so i dont see whats the problem.. if you dont know her just be like. honestly A idk how id be able to Like you if i dont know much about you... or something like that or like somehow get her to just kidna open to you? or ask her whyy does she like you. things that kind of get a girl to open up to you is like just awkward alone time together or when she does things she likes. and by solving.. like rejecting her in a way where your not being mean and still let her have her self esteem.. then you can say something im sorry A i dont know much about you. although i do like you i just dont know much about you. maybe once i get to know you better. <-thats the like maybe sometimes in the future rejection now if you dont want to give her help. just saying. something like honestly. i cant return the feelings because i dont know you that well and i want someone whose able to just open up to me and be someone who can be comfortable around me and let me be comfortable around. i just honestly dont think id be able to fart around you and not feel embarassed about it x( but if your solving the problem of like "not knowing who she is" but want to get with her you can well suggest that you guys should go into the talking stage. that although you arent officially together. but you guys are just in a status of. oh yeah im interested in her and shes interested in me but we dont quite know each other yet. so were going to get to know each other lol But if you dont like the talking stage but still want to get to know her you can get with her as official bf and Gf and see how things work. usually the kissing and the holding of hands bring out how someone is. lol. idk or like just get to know her as the relationnship of bf and gf progresses. Usually.. when a guy says they dont want to talk about it. its usually a sign of rejection already. QUESTIONS FOR YOU: what happend to B? how do you like a girl you barely know? since you two have the same interest how is it that you barely know who she is? dont you guys text, then how come you dont know her that well? do you and your A girl still send mails to each other? PS. I HOPE THIS HELPS ! im sorry if any of my suggest does not make sense if you want more information dont be afraid to quote it pm me or just add me as a buddy to talk about it. but honestly. i likee these kinda talks Oh and. some people do give advices on here that arent halfed ass. im one of them. well sometimes -.- Seems like I messed everything up a bit. So I knew B for about a year. We were the ones sending the mails and we are still doing it. She si one and a half years younger than me and it seems like I really like her. I never had any contact with a except at school and since she doesn't talk much, we have talked maybe 30 words until now. And I got to know her in 5th grade which means I know her for 7 years. It's not like I dislike her. Some friends of mine called her ugly and psycho because she doesn't talk and I got really angry about that, but whatever it is, I am fairly certain that there is no love. I also have watched her for some time and I am pretty sure that she actually likes one more popular guy and only chose me because asking the other one out would have been even harder for her. The other problem is that I think that I wouldn't be able to keep up a friendship with B if A was my gf and on the other hand that I have to go to school together with A and thus wouldn't ever be able to avoid meeting her again or talking to her again. so. you dont like her (A). your just not sure how to reject her, and still be friends so that when you see her at school it wont be weird? so you just want to have B and A as your friends still w.e having to give up one?, i feel like you LIk B for some reason! well if you still want to be friends with A even after rejecting her just honestly tell her how you actually feel. because im sure she would understand. because you have always backed her up when your friends call her ugly and such. and.. i dont think she likes a more popular guy.. because the thing about girls no matter how shy they are and such well the thing about me (a girl) im very straightforward once you get to know me. and at first if i like you. id probably be shy AF =.=.(end of me) i think she does like you because i dont think she would ask a girl she didnt like. even if she did like another who is more popular than you. i just feel like maybe because you were so kind to her she liked you. and i dont think if you did get with A you'd drift away from B because like if you really wanted B to still be your friend then like. you'd be able to juggle those two.. like its not liek your always going to be with A. and its not like A is the jealous type who thinks every girl out there is going to try to get at you. Ipersonally am like that sadly ;/ but my bf lieks it so w.e lol(end of me) im not sure what your problem is but if you stil lwant to be B's friend and A's friend you can either tell A how you really feel about her. which is your form of rejection or acceptance lets just say in this case its rejections. that you'd still want to be friends but if it was acceptance then you'd can ask her if shes the jealous type and if its okay for you to be able to hang out with B. honestly situations of wanting to keep both girls is complicating because you have to satisfy both party =.= You know, you can't be nice to somebody that you have no contact with. I would be nice to her but ther has never been an opportunity to do so. Also this thing with calling her ugly all happened behind her back. (Which made me even more angry. People being all nice and friendly to her and as soon as she leaves the room talking about her as if she was that girl from "The Ring"). I've also got the feeling thhe doesn't see me as the person I really am. Most of the time at school I act like an clown or a happy person but all my friends and my family know me as somebody who doesn't talk more than necessary and who keeps just sitting and thinking for hours. I don't even know how a date would work: Two people sitting next to each other for hours and saying nothing. In case you misunderstood me: She is not only shy, even when she is with her friends, she says maybe 5 sentences a day. (I know this might e an overreaction since every relationship I had until now was killed by my "she doesn't really know me" attitude) Then how is it your able to like her? Im seriously confused. are you just unsure of wanting to get with her? because she asked you? are you mad because of how "friends" think of other people besides themselves? and going on date does not exactly mean you sit and talk for hours. its just like bonding time. like how you would if you hang out with yourfriends. Look . just follow your gut feeling. if you feel like you dont want it to ruin something then do something about it. if you feel like nothing will change out of the things you do. then just go with that feeling... things like this is not about getting advices. and like. you shouldnt be afraid to go into a relationship not knowing someone because as a relationship grows you get to know them. and if you dont like how they are just break up if you like how they are then stay with them... are you telling me you have no contact with Ms.A and doesnt she go to school with you? idk im getting veryy confused at what your trying to say to me ;/ you can eaither try to help me understand or. just idk o-o because im willing to talk to you and such. but. im just really confused ._. |
How can I stop the urge to grab my FD-200 sniper and shoot this bastard to death and bring all the gorillas in the world to ape fuck the shit out all the bullet wounds I made?
all the fat bitches in the world can burn in hell
Tons of torment few have ever bothered to help me with.
I am very angry, in fact, I was angry until I did something... unexpected a few months ago that was potentially life-saving and inspiring (afraid to reveal it as it may sound arrogant), but now am ready to POUND something internally speaking due to a kaleidoscope of bad memories that ruined my adolescence returning to me at a lower level than before yet still infuriating. First off, my older brother read me the Biblical Flood at the age of 8 and thus I get very annoyed and aggressive with any talk of Ragnarok, the Apocalypse, glorifying Evangelion as the best , and much more. I did not know downloading ROMs of video games was illegal in 2003, when I was 12, I tried, but was redirected to an 18+ site thus I am a human MALE with porno-phobia, imagine the suffering I felt, thinking people who so much as mentioned Family Guy gags were trying to hunt me like a rabbit chased by a wolf... (Don't mention ecchi anime that are nothing but sex jokes, I will take it personally...) My own mother emotionally abused me and kept me away from my own friends for much of my school life and made me sacrifice most of my adolescence for her survival in a cigarette smoke infested house or suffer the words, "how could you? how could you be so mean?", I have/had asthma thus athletics were impossible. I was so trapped, I had to Platonically fall in love with a fictional being just to keep my mind alive. Yes, I could not see my friends on weekends as often as most were privileged to have happen, thus an anime character was literally my mind's life-support and now my subconscious is mistaking anime characters and people in real life for "ma...ma..." which never existed, I have no real mother! DAMN MY CHILDHOOD!!!! |

How do you stop the urge of wasting money on pointless things.
For example I think I waste too much money on food. I could just try and be happy with this can of soup. but I always wanna eat out and eat nice food at nice places. sigh* I want to save my money but eat good food. |
What it would be, is what it wouldn't be, you see?
Learn to cook.
i have this teacher that i'm pretty close with. we get on great and we're both passionate about the same things. he's younger (like '30s maybe) and i can talk to him really easily. i like him a lot, i think he's great to be with and just a big sweetheart. but sometimes i'm told that he might like me more than that maybe
it's little things. the other day i was wearing this dress and it was sleeveless, so my upper back and shoulders were exposed. he put his hand on my shoulder and kind of kept it there for a while while he was talking to me and then told me i looked cute. he always ruffles my hair and punches me teasingly, he touches me a lot but not in a bad way. the worst he's done is put both his hands on my shoulders and rub a little. he teases me in class and writes little comments on my papers. when i walk by his room he tells me to come in and talk to him sometimes and stuff like that i don't feel threatened, most of it seems innocent and like i said, i like him. but my friends say he's flirting. he's married with kids and stuff so i don't get why he would prowl after me anyway, but people say it's obvious. is he just being friendly or am i being oblivious? i think he's just affectionate |
Most men flirt when they're bored and there's likeable women nearby. But it rarely involves touching unless they want sex.
underlock wrote: Most men flirt when they're bored and there's likeable women nearby. But it rarely involves touching unless they want sex. oh god that's upsetting even with a teacher/student relationship where i'm at least half his age? i don't get how he could see me in a sexual way, given his career choice and what seems like a pretty happy family life |
I've never really liked vegetables, and red meat, but after being exposed to them for so long I simply started liking it eventually.
Get the point? Most people seem happy on the surface. As a teacher, he should be aware of his actions' consequences. He's either a very emotionally dumb person or he's just leading you on (which is my bet, but I tend to pick the worst outcomes when it comes to people). I want to facepalm whenever girls call a boy/man affectionate just because they act nice to girl(s) (anyone besides their partner, for that matter). Is he affectionate like that to the boys? Seen him massage a boy's back? No? Then he's clearly not an affectionate person. |

Then he's clearly not an affectionate person. while i appreciate the advice, why are you being so unnecessarily condescending? i don't want to out him as something he's not, so that's why i'm taking everything into account here. you're right that he isn't physical with boys, but he's still affectionate. for example, one time one of the guys in my film class said he was having a bad day and he took him to the teacher's lounge and made him a cup of tea. most teenaged boys, in my school at least, would freak out if a guy tried to touch him in an even vaguely intimate way, and i'm assuming my teacher is aware of that, so that's probably why he's only like that with the girls. my issue is that he's especially warm with me, and i was thinking that maybe it was because he was an affectionate guy and he just happened to be moreso towards me because we have a lot in common, instead of him wanting sex or something like my friends seem to think. |

Sienna Miller Movies
With a mother who ran London's famed
Lee Strasberg
drama school -- and being the sort of knockout blonde beauty adored by the cameras -- it was not surprising that
Sienna Miller
eventually gravitated to an acting career. Born in New York to an American banker father and a mother who was always associated with the arts, young
received her primary education at the Heathfield School in Ascot, Surrey, before pursuing acting at New York's Lee Strasberg Institute. Her feature debut in the 2002 drama Joy Rider found the emerging actress caught in the middle of a heated love triangle, and after essaying a role in a BBC television drama Bedtime in 2001,
crossed the pond to appear on the stateside series
Keen Eddie
. Trading zingers with the series' lead
Mark Valley
played her character with just the sort of chemistry needed to make an action comedy series work.
If subsequent roles in the films
Layer Cake
weren't enough to get people talking about
, her sometime relationship with the latter film's star,
Jude Law
, certainly helped keep gossip columnists in business. In the years to come, Miller would remain a well known name primarily for her acting, appearing in several projects per year such as Factor Girl, The Edge of Love, and many more. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Keen Eddie [TV Series]
Filmed on-location in London, the FOX cop series Keen Eddie starred Mark Valley as Eddie Arlette, a New York City police detective. Disgraced and nearly dismissed after a spectacularly botched drug bust, Eddie was ordered to transfer to London's Scotland Yard so that he might rebuild his career from the ground up. Despite a daunting series of setbacks and blunders, Eddie managed to do his duty, with both himself and his Scotland Yard colleagues learning a lot more about one another's countries and cultures than they ever imagined. Sienna Miller co-starred as Eddie's reluctant flatmate, Fiona Bickerton. Others in the cast included Colin Salmon as Eddie's extremely judgmental Yard superior Supt. Johnson; Julian Rhind-Tutt as Eddie's deceptively prim-and-proper partner, Rudy (who, among other things, pretended to by married so he could attend sub-rosa wife-swapping parties); and a pair of animal regulars, Eddie's dog, Pete, and Fiona's cat, Duchess. Originally slated to debut in January 2003, Keen Eddie was shelved until June of that same year, reportedly to allow the producers to transform what had begun as a straight dramatic-action series into a semi-comedy. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Add Alfie to Queue
Add Alfie to top of Queue
This remake of Lewis Gilbert's 1966 film of the same name features Jude Law filling the shoes Michael Caine once wore in the title role of Alfie. As with the original, Law occasionally speaks directly to the camera while his character talks of the opposite sex. Under the direction of Charles Shyer, Alfie follows a charming, if morally lacking, womanizer from one bed to the next. While his actions arise more from nonchalance than malice, Alfie nonetheless faces a moral dilemma when considering that he's impregnated one of his latest girlfriends. Alfie also includes performances from Marisa Tomei, Susan Sarandon, and Nia Long. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

Charmed: Witchness Protection
Leo (Brian Krause) is ordered by his fellow Avatars to protect the demon seer Kira (Charisma Carpenter) in order to obtain information necessary to vanquish all other demons. At the same time, the Charmed Ones share Kira's latest vision, leading them to believe that the best of all possible worlds will be one ruled by the Avatars. Meanwhile, Kira's fellow demons release the dreaded, all-powerful Zankou (Oded Fehr, in his first series appearance) to counteract her "treason"; and Paige (Rose McGowan) and Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) are diametrically opposed in their feelings toward the "helpful" Brody (Kerr Smith). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

History's most renowned ladies' man finally meets his match in this historical romance laced with comedy and adventure. In Venice in 1753, Giacomo Casanova (Heath Ledger) is a notorious playboy whose way with women goes too far when he's caught leaving the bedroom of a novice nun, and one of the leading prosecutors of the Inquisition, Pucci (Jeremy Irons), puts him on trial. The Doge (Tim McInnerny), Venice's political point man, is a friend of Casanova's and pulls strings to get him off the hook and allow him to stay in the city, but under one condition -- he must take a wife and remain faithful to her. Casanova sets his sights on Victoria (Natalie Dormer), a lovely young maiden who is obviously taken with the handsome ladykiller, but he's not the only one who wants her hand. Giovanni Bruni (Charlie Cox) is a young man who is very much in love with Victoria, and in order to move him out of the picture, Casanova challenges him to a duel. However, when Casanova is bested in swords in the challenge, he discovers he's actually been parrying with Giovanni's sister, Francesca (Sienna Miller). As Casanova gets to know Francesca, he discovers she's a gifted writer and a bright and independent woman as well as a good hand with a sword, and he comes to the realization that she's the woman he wants to take to the altar. However, Francesca has already been promised to the vain and chubby Papprizzio (Oliver Platt), a man she's never met, and she doesn't seem at all interested in the notorious Casanova. Casanova also stars Lena Olin, and Omid Djalili. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The true story of one woman's brief and ultimately tragic flirtation with fame in the 1960s provides the basis for this biographical drama. In 1943, Edie Sedgwick (Sienna Miller) was born to a wealthy and socially prominent family, and she grew up with beauty and money, but also a history of mental illness; she was hospitalized with an eating disorder in her late teens, and by the time she was 21, two of her seven siblings had died before their time. In 1964, Edie moved to New York City, and quickly made a splash on the Manhattan social scene; she became friendly with the famous pop artist Andy Warhol (Guy Pearce), who was fascinated by her gamine loveliness and her quirky personality. Warhol wasted no time in casting her in one of his underground movies, and she quickly became a crucial part of his retinue of "superstars." Fashion icon Diana Vreeland (Illeana Douglas) was convinced Edie had the looks and charm to also become a successful model, and soon she was gracing the pages of Life, Vogue, and Glamour. But Edie's instability was hardly helped by her new fast-lane lifestyle, and when she met Billy Quinn (Hayden Christensen), a folk rock singer-songwriter often cited as "the voice of a generation," he persuaded her that Warhol and his associates were simply using her fame and beauty for their own gain, and she found herself torn between two powerful mentors, one of whom had become her lover as well. Factory Girl also co-stars Jimmy Fallon, Mena Suvari, and Tara Summers as regulars at the Warhol "Factory." The character of Musician was inspired in part by Bob Dylan, who was romantically involved with Edie Sedgwick for a brief time. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Sienna Miller and James Franco star in first-time producer/director Gregory Mackenzie's twisted romance about a honeymooning couple who discovers that sometimes love is stronger than death. Recent parolee Silas (Franco) has just been blackmailed into marrying the beautiful Camille (Miller), and he's none to happy about the arrangement; despite the fact that he can't stand her, she still worships the ground he walks on. But now the law is family, and should the union fail, Silas' new uncle-in-law, Sheriff Foster (Scott Glen), will ensure that the disgruntled groom is sent back to the slammer in a flash. Immediately after the wedding, however, things get complicated when Silas and Camille are run off the road by a reckless truck driver. When Silas regains conscious and stumbles over to Camille's contorted body, it's obvious that she's suffered a fatal injury in the accident. After fleeing the scene and attempting to summon help, Silas returns to the sight of the crash and finds Camille nursing a serious neck injury down by the river while frantically trying to get the grass stains out of her wedding dress. Desperate, the couple hitches a ride with the nomadic Cowboy Bob (David Carradine), eventually realizing that Camille didn't survive the accident despite the fact that she's somehow able to walk and talk with the living. As Camille's body begins to decay, the situation grows complicated when the couple learns that the police are on their trail for an imagined robbery and murder. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A charmingly naïve boy from the English village of Wall travels to a magical, mythical world in search of the falling star that will help him win the heart of his true love in this fantasy adventure starring Charlie Cox, Claire Danes, Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, Ricky Gervais, and Sienna Miller. For hundreds of years the massive cobblestone barrier that surrounds the sleepy English hamlet of Wall has kept the citizens of the village safe and secure from the malevolent supernatural forces that stir just outside its perimeter. When dashing Tristan Thorne (Cox) promises the fairest girl in the village, Victoria (Miller), that he will prove his love by bestowing her with a genuine falling star, his daring mission sends him on an adventure far outside the comfortable confines of Wall. In order to find the fallen star, Tristan will have to ascend the wall and venture deep into the forbidden heart of the fantastical realm known as Stormhold. Upon discovering that the meteorite he sought was in fact a beautiful girl named Yvaine (Danes), who has stumbled though space and is now being pursued by the King of Stormhold's (Peter O'Toole) sons (who long to use her cosmic powers to lay claim to the throne), Tristan vows to protect the otherworldly visitor at all costs. But the king's sons aren't the only ones in search of the luminous Yvaine; fearsome witch Lamia (Pfeiffer) has become convinced that the young girl's power can help her to achieve eternal youth and beauty. As Tristan makes his way through Stormhold on a mission to bring the star back to Wall, he will encounter a series of spectacular characters and creatures that will lead him to a fate he never imagined. Layer Cake director Matthew Vaughn serves as director and co-screenwriter for this tale of witches and pirates adapted from the novel by fantasy icon Neil Gaiman, who also produces. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

With Interview, his fourth directorial outing, American actor-cum-director Steve Buscemi reworks a 2003 feature by the ill-fated Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh. Van Gogh originally intended to shoot an English-language version of the picture himself, but Buscemi signed on after the director's late 2004 assassination. The story concerns Pierre Peders (Buscemi), a steel-tough political correspondent infuriated by his editor's decision to hogtie him to a tabloid-level story about the seemingly vapid actress and blonde paparazzi goddess Katya (Sienna Miller). Pierre's chagrin doubles given the news of a searing White House scandal that is just breaking; instead of covering the piece, Peders must visit a posh Manhattan restaurant and interview Katya -- someone he instantly detests. The one-on-one is more of a disaster than either could have predicted, but by some strange twist of fate, Pierre is injured and courted back to Katya's apartment. Once there, liquor is downed, coke is consumed, minor violence erupts, and the two begin to dance a
pas de deux
-- attempting, not so subtly, to outmaneuver one another psychologically, as dark secrets and long-hidden vulnerabilities emerge. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

The Jacket director John Maybury adapts playwright Sharman MacDonald's account of the true-life relationships shared between Welsh poet Dylan Thomas; his wife, Caitlin; his lifelong friend Vera Phillips; and her husband, William Killick, in this biographical drama centering on the curious incident in which Thomas found his home turned into a war zone when Phillips and Killick attacked the abode with a machine gun and a grenade. Sienna Miller assumes the role of Dylan's wife, Caitlin, and Keira Knightley joins the cast as the trigger-happy Phillips in a film that not only reunites Knightley with Jacket director Maybury, but takes its cue from the play penned the Pirates of the Caribbean star's mother as well. Lindsay Lohan was originally tapped to play Caitlin, but dropped out due to contractual disagreements. The film also stars Matthew Rhys (Brothers & Sisters) as Thomas and Cillian Murphy as Killick. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Hippie Hippie Shake
The landmark obscenity trial surrounding a satirical Australian magazine becomes a metaphor for a wild ride through swinging 1960s-era London in director Beeban Kidron's adaptation of Richard Neville's memoir Hippie Hippie Shake: The Dreams, the Trips, the Trials, the Love-ins, the Screw Ups: The Sixties. Cillian Murphy stars as Neville in a film that follows the editors of Oz as they relocate to London and are forced to defend a sexually explicit issue of their irreverent magazine after it raises the eyebrows of the Obscene Publications Squad. The resulting legal battle would become the longest obscenity trial in the history of English law. Though the publishers of Oz were initially sentenced to hard labor, a subsequent appeal would find their sentences commuted under the agreement that they cease publication of the controversial magazine. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

For Mayor Ed Lee, a political win looked easier than drunk college kids at a frat mixer. Ross Mirkarimi laid it right out for him: Lee could send a political adversary into professional oblivion, financial ruin, and public humiliation. He could force the progressive wing of the Board of Supervisors into choosing between voting their sheriff out of office or crafting a statement of defense that parsed the nuances of domestic violence.

Current Research and Scholarly Interests
My research focus is human motor control and brain pathophysiology in movement disorders. Our overall goal is to understand the role of the basal ganglia electrical activity in the pathogenesis of movement disorders. We have developed novel computerized technology to measure fine, limb and postural movement. With these we are measuring local field potentials in basal ganglia nuclei in patients with Parkinson's disease and dystonian and correlating brain signalling with motor behavior.

After a holiday weekend, commuters could be in for a longer daily commute on U.S. 127 around Frandor.
"Tuesday night we're going to push those two lanes over onto the median shoulder...so we can do our work on the far east side of the road," said Greg Losch, construction engineer for MDOT.
MDOT is starting a project to add a third lane to U.S. 127 between 496 and the Saginaw/Grand river exit. That exit will close during construction and all traffic will be detoured to the Kalamazoo street exit.
"This project will cut down on the congestion that takes place where east bound 496 merges onto 127," Losch said.
However. some commuters aren't too thrilled to hear about the exit shutting down and periodic lane closures.
"We weren't aware of that. It's going to be a much longer day that's for sure," said Suzie Schumacher.
Other commuters say they're looking forward to the end result.
"Ultimately, I think that if it's going to improve the situation in the long term, I mean it is a tight spot, so I think that'll be really positive," said East Lansing resident Erin Fritch.
One lane will remain closed at the 496 and 127 interchange throughout the construction period.
The project is scheduled to be completed by mid-August.

GREEN BAY, Wis. – After three weeks, attorney Joseph Nicks is done with the first portion of his investigation into allegations of player mistreatment by University of Wisconsin-Green Bay men's basketball coach and Hinsdale Central High School graduate Brian Wardle.
According to a report in the Green Bay Press-Gazette, Nicks concluded Monday the interview portion of his investigation, which began April 15. The next step is producing a report for UWGB Chancellor Thomas Harden.
"The lastest communication from Mr. Nicks is that we might have the report next week," UWGB Communications Director Chris Sampson said. "We were hopeful it would be this week, but it looks like it will be next week."

Cowgirl Finishes Her Sophomore Year
In July, the Cowgirl Blog turned two.
And, the blog is on the verge of receiving our one millionth viewer. Montana Cowgirl has been featured on CNN, and in the Washington Post, Huffington Post, Mother Jones, and numerous Montana press outlets, much of it in the course of exposing the 2011 Republican legislature for the lunatics that they were (are).
But far more flattering is this: at a recent Washington, DC "summit" of the Americans for Prosperity Foundation group (the Koch brothers' outfit of angry right-wing misfits), there was a panel at which I am told my blog was the main topic of discussion. Who is this person, they asked. How does she do her research? What dark arts must she know?
It is truly hilarious that these dingbats believe my blog to consist of some sort of magic. They view it with a sense of awe and bewilderment, like when Tarzan watched in amazement when he first saw the British artistocrat shave his face with a strait razor. To the Tea Party set, this blog is an item of technological wonder, believed to emanate from some advanced, alien civilization.
A few pieces of advice for the panel participants. First, if you are literate, you can start a blog. It costs almost nothing and can be done for free. Second, if you know how to surf the web, conduct google searches, read a Facebook page and receive reader tips by e-mail, you can do all of the things that this blog does. (Thank you readers! Your tips make up the most important content on this blog. Send tips to mntnacowgirl (at) gmail.com) True, this sets a high bar for an organization (AFP) whose Montana leaders are Joe Balyeat and Henry Kriegel. But it's incomprehensible that there is such a dearth of credible GOP blogging in this state. The relative absence of conservative blogging (compared to all the really great Montana progressive blogs you see among those on the blog roll here to the right of this post) speaks volumes about the right wing.
As to the occasional remark made that this blog "lacks courage" because it is penned anonymously, these critics do not understand that anonymous writing is a crucial component of political discourse and has always been so. Among other examples, Thomas Paine's Common Sense, a 1776 work that set forth the basic principles on which the American Revolution was based,was published anonymously. I'm sure that Tea Partiers, with their intellectual command of American history, are aware of this.
