text: When the death of her once-beautiful sister leaves lonely Laci (Linda Purl)'s grieving brother-in-law a newly-single husband and father, the disturbed woman's attempts to take her late sister's place in the marriage only lead to murder in director Douglas Jackson's bloody tale of wedding vows gone awry. Laci will do anything to make her dream of becoming a loyal wife and loving mother come true, and when her sister is killed in a tragic car accident, Laci quickly moves into her brother-in-law's home with every intention of fulfilling all her late sibling's many marital and parental obligations. When Laci discovers that the love of her life is making plans to marry another woman, however, the psychotic sister sets into motion a murderous plan that may find one wedding replaced by two funerals. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Problem to find the entrance to hotel due to renovation of the building and no sign. Breakfast was superb
Asbjorn L wrote on January 6, 2013
This is an amazing hotel. Our only problem was with the billing which did not show the deposit we paid with you. I queried it with the hotel and they said they had no record. On our return I emailed for clarification and they replied that the deposit had been taken into account. The bill did not show it at all.
Anonymous wrote on October 3, 2008
I booked this last minute and was very surprised when I got there. I was in a room on The Level with a dedicated check in, free breakfast and a fantastic room with a view over the harbour. It was reasonably priced and apart from the building works opposite I would definitely stay there again.
Anonymous wrote on July 28, 2008
Very nice hotel, would definately recommend it! Only thing is that they're very much about business-travelers and less about leisure. But you have the wonderful views, the marvelous breakfast, clean rooms, friendly staff, the beach, the sea, a very beautiful, lively town... So what else do you need?
Bianca Hendriks wrote on July 4, 2008
There is an indoor pool, but you have to pay extra for using it. We went in Feb 08 and there is building going on opposite the front of the hotel, so until that is completed, I suggest requesting for a room NOT overlooking the harbour. We had one overlooking the sea and could not hear the building noise at all. We took a taxi from and from the airport. For some reason it was 20euros to the hotel and 14euros from the hotel with the meter running. The breakfast selection is excellent and the setting for the breakfast room is lovely. We enjoyed our stay and if we visited Alicante again would most likely stay there.

Despite ãprivate nuisanceã to neighbors, court wonãt shut down business
WESTERLY ã A Superior Court judge ruled Monday that Copar Quarries of Bradford can continue quarrying, as long as the company takes steps to ãalter its processesã and correct the ãprivate nuisanceã the judge said Copar poses to its neighbors.
Associate Justice Brian Stern ruled that while the neighbors of the quarry who brought suit: Steven and Cheryl Dubois, Louis and Nancy Pucci, and Edward and Danielle Babat, argued convincingly that stone dust from the quarry drifts into their yards, there is not enough evidence to determine that the dust poses a health risk and thus issue a temporary injunction to shut down the facility.
The judge also found that noise from the quarrying operations contributes to the ãprivate nuisanceã experienced plaintiffs in the case.
Despite the ãprivate nuisanceã the judge ruled that Copar has a right to continue quarrying and the court was unwilling to end the quarryãs business.
According to Stern, since Copar has remained within local and state limits regarding air quality and noise levels, the plaintiffs were unable to demonstrate that the quarry causes a wider ãpublic nuisance.ã
As part of Judge Sternãs ruling, Copar is required to continue adhering to a consent order agreed upon by Copar and the quarryãs neighbors in late June.
The company must also continue to retain a lawyer to serve as a special master in the case to monitor the quarryãs operations. John Deacon Jr., the special master, will continue his work and report to the judge every four months for one year.
ãIt seems obvious that the judge has recognized that [the quarry] is a nuisance to the Charlestown and Bradford residents,ã Tom Gentz, president of Charlestown Town Council, said Wednesday. ãBut this is a narrow judgment that is just about the nuisance. All other matters are still to be decided.ã
The Charlestown Town Council passed a resolution Jan. 28 urging the town of Westerly, the Rhode Island General Assembly, and relevant state and federal agencies to ãconsider immediate action, legislation and/or regulation to either stop or significantly curtail commercial quarry operations in residential areas ãÎ because residents have an operation that is causing unreasonable impact upon their lives.ã
Judge Sternãs decision regarding the ãprivate nuisanceã comes 14 months after the plaintiffsã attorney, Michael Lynch, filed suit naming Copar, Westerly Granite Co. Inc., and the town of Westerly as defendants. The long awaited decision was delayed when Copar was found in contempt of the consent order in September and by scheduling conflicts.
Lynch said Wednesday that while the judgeãs decision indicated the plaintiffs had suffered a ãprivate nuisance,ã as they claimed, they ãhad hoped the judge was going to limit operations in their entirety.ã
Lynch added that the plaintiffs also hope that a new order will be put together ãto ensure the private nuisance, which includes the dust and noise, is mediated.ã
Several outstanding legal issues, as Gentz eluded to, still remain to be resolved, including a claim by the plaintiffs and town officials that quarrying operations at the Church Street site had stopped for many years until 2010, when Copar began work on the property. If a cease in operations can be proved, and the quarry deemed abandoned, could mean the zoning certificate under which the quarry operates is invalid. Lawyers for Copar are attempting to prove there is a ãpre-existing nonconforming useã and quarrying has occurred on the property for decades.
Debates over the notice of violation issued to Copar by former Westerly Zoning Official Elizabeth Burdick in August are also unresolved. It is also rumored that Burdick is now working as a consultant for Copar on a project in Connecticut.
Earlier this week, William DiLibero, former Charlestown town administrator and Hopkinton town manager, was appointed as interim zoning official to fill the vacancy created by Burdickãs departure last month.
The Westerly Zoning Board was scheduled to meet Wednesday, after The Chariho Times went to press, for further hearings on these issues.
Gentz said he hopes that residents of Charlestown and Bradford will finally have a chance to speak about the quarry after enduring months of waiting and public hearings.
Jeffrey Gladstone, Coparãs attorney, did not return calls for comment before deadline.

John Gage made all four of his 3-point attempts and scored a career-high 19 points to help Stanford rout Utah by 31 points, 87-56.
Chasson Randle added 17 points and eight rebounds while Josh Huestis chipped in 13 points and seven boards for the Cardinal (12-8, 3-4 Pac-12), who handed the Utes their most lopsided loss of the season.
Justin Seymour scored 14 points for Utah (9-11, 1-7) and was the lone Ute player to score in double figures. The Utes have not beaten a Division I opponent at home since a 62-53 victory over SMU on Dec. 18.
Stanford had no trouble keeping a rhythm on offense for 40 minutes. The Cardinal shot 50 percent from the field overall and connected on 60 percent of their 3-pointers. They also controlled the glass, outrebounding Utah 43-27.
Utah is off until next Saturday when it hosts Colorado at 12:30 p.m. The Runnin' Utes will also hold a special halftime presentation to honor former head coach Rick Majerus.

Briefly glimpsed are these examples of high art meets GTL culture, with the Shore crew gleefully defacing the European masters.

BP Comment Quick Links
February 6, 2013 Rumor RoundupWednesday, February 6The Astros breathed life into the Hot Stove earlier this week, when they agreed to send infielder Jed Lowrie to the Athletics in a five-player swaps, but the flames have since died down again. Fortunately, second-year general manager Jeff Luhnow might soon provide more fuel… Astros could keep wheeling and dealing, with Bud Norris on the block I previously covered the trade landscape for Norris in the Roundup on Dec. 18, and although spring training is now around the corner, not much has changed since then. The Cardinals and Padres, two teams that were bandied about as possible destinations in December, remain interested, per Rosenthal, and the Orioles have reportedly now entered the fold. Meanwhile, Norris is still a two-pitch righty, whose future as a starter is clouded by a mediocre changeup and rough mechanics. St. Louis became a somewhat more intriguing option on Tuesday, when general manager John Mozeliak announced that Chris Carpenter is a long shot to contribute to the Cardinals in 2013. Luhnow's relationship with the Cardinals, his previous employer, could help to accelerate negotiations, but his intimate knowledge of the farm system might also impede the process. Additionally, a source told St. Louis Post-Dispatch columnist Joe Strauss that the team's interest in bringing back Kyle Lohse is "negligible at this time," and Mozeliak has an enviable collection of young arms with which to remedy this setback. Right-handers Shelby Miller, Trevor Rosenthal, and Joe Kelly all enjoyed moments of brilliance in their first major-league tours last year, and each of them is talented enough to outperform Norris—while earning the league minimum, no less. The soon-to-be 28-year-old Norris forewent his first year of arbitration eligibility by agreeing to a $3 million paycheck for 2013, and although that's hardly a steep outlay for a consistent, 1.5-win pitcher, the Cardinals are among the few teams that have the farm depth to replace comfortably from within. It's unwise to look past St. Louis entirely, but Baltimore and San Diego appear to have a more pressing need. Dan Duquette has kicked the tires on a number of starting pitchers this winter, but with Joe Saunders looking likely to depart in free agency, his rotation is short on dependable arms. Adam Sobsey wrote last September about the role that Duquette's constant roster tweaks played in the Orioles' surprising wild-card run, and adding Norris would enable him to stash some younger arms in the bullpen or at Triple-A Norfolk, in case rotation reinforcements are required in midseason. Duquette tacked Joel Pineiro onto his list of non-roster invitees earlier this week, but after undergoing surgery to repair a SLAP (labrum) tear in his shoulder, the 34-year-old is little more than a low-jackpot lottery ticket.

Younger hunters and those who haven't had the chance to hunt in Utah must sign up for one of several hunter education courses. The courses are designed to help young or inexperienced hunters with the information they need in order to properly hunt during the upcoming hunting season, which begins as early as mid-September.
"It's important for hunters of all ages and experience to come along for the course," said Kirk Smith, assistant Hunter Eduction coordinator for DWR.
"These spots fill up pretty quick so it's also important for those who want to hunt this year to get out and take an education course.", he said.
Hunter Education courses are held throughout Davis County and all over Utah, with most residents choosing to take the online course. For those who want to take the course in class, DWR offers that setting as well.

The hepatitis A virus (HAV) causes fever, nausea, vomiting, and jaundice, and can lead to community-wide epidemics. Childcare centers are a common site of outbreaks.
The vaccine is recommended for children 12-23 months old, followed by a second dose 6-18 months later.
In the past, the vaccine was recommended for older kids and adults who were at high risk for the disease (such as those who lived in or traveled to locations with high rates of HAV). But now it's also recommended for anyone who desires immunity to the disease.
Besides protecting the individual child, vaccination against HAV can help prevent epidemics from developing. Some infected kids do not have any symptoms, but can still spread the virus to others. Having many young kids vaccinated against HAV can limit the spread of the disease in a community.
Side effects are usually mild fever, and tenderness, swelling, and redness at the site of the injection. Allergic reactions to the vaccine are rare.
The vaccine is not recommended if your child:
Your child may have fever, soreness, and some swelling and redness in the area where the shot was given. Pain and fever may be treated with acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Check with your doctor to see if you can give either medication and to find out the appropriate dose.

Get to it!
Get to it!
best of the new ones so far. the obama and palin jokes were predictable but the plot twist made it worth it, and i enjoyed the references to terminator and the ending. not as good as a head in the polls though, that one was a little more general in its satire so it holds up better. B+
I didn't like the beginning too much (Bender jumping for free beer and drinking it all was too much like Homer), but it definitely got better. The candidate from the future was a great twist, but then the fact that he also disappeared because he won was quite clever (and made a lot of sense at the same time). My three favorite moments of the night were Nixon watching the squirrels on the powerlines while muttering "Fall! Fall!", the giraffe breaking the window open, and Bender sucking Leela's hair into his mouth.
It was obvious Fry and Bender were going to join Leela on the trip to Kenya. Think we're ever actually going to get an episode where an unusual pairing of people go off together instead - say, Leela, Hermes and Kif? I just randomly threw that trio out there...that really wouldn't make a funny episode.
What a glorious day for Canada and therefore, of course, the world.
So let me get this straight...Nixon was elected President, and as a result, the robots took over, so the humans sent Travers back to defeat Nixon. However, Travers won, so the robots never took over, and Travers was never sent back in time, so Nixon did win...so the robots do take over, and they do send Travers back, so Travers does win, but then the robots don't take over, so they don't send him back, and Nixon wins after all...how soon before all of the robots (except for Robot Santa) have their heads explode from the paradox?
A pretty fun outing, much better than I expected it to be. Loved the callbacks to "Bender's Big Score" and the intro was amusing.
Best lines of the night were "Leela don't stereotype, why are you yokels doing this?" and Zoidberg's "I'll stick with the evil maniac I know thank you!"
Most amusing visuals were the septic tank and Bender using the giraffe to break in to the hospital.
Decision 3012 gets a solid vote of 4 from me.
Fuck it all the way to Hell!
Were there any scenes where adult Travers met baby Travers? I have a feeling they intentionally made sure they would never meet, since that usually results in the time traveler's death somehow.
Ah crap I knew I forgot something...
Meh. Predictable and obvious jokes, but I like that they referenced Bender's Big Score. This episode got a little bit better as it went on, but overall it was kind of annoying. 3/5 C+ for now.

I really liked this! The plot was interesting (even if it had been done before), Bender was back in his old hilarious form, and the plot twist was genuinely surprising. As for this vs. A Head in the Polls, I liked this one better. This one was funnier and had a more captivating plot. Don't get me wrong, though - A Head was good, too. My only complaint is the lack of explanation regarding how Nixon keeps getting reelected, since the "two terms max" rule is still in effect in the future. Still. if this rest of the season reaches this quality, I'll be willing to forget that these last two seasons ever existed. Best of the season so far. 4/5 (B+)

It was really hacky and bad... there's a spot of cleverness when Not Obama is watching his own birth but it's not enough to make up for the rest
Now I'm going to haul ass to Lollapalooza
I think they need to stop doing parody of modern day (pop) culture like the iPhone, Prop 8 and um, the American presidency. It feels dated and lazy.
they may have made jokes about napster, y2k, global warming, etc. but it seems that's what every other new episode has been. when they did satire such as voting and politics in a head in the polls, global warming in crimes of the hot, that satire was more generalized and still relevant. this episode was funny, hence why i gave it a good score. just compare simpsons episodes like politically inept, e pluribus wiggum, boy meets curl, mypods and boomsticks to sideshowbob roberts, last exit to springfield, or two cars in every garage and three eyes on every fish. it makes fun of something relevant to modern society but would've been relevant in the 70s, 80s, 2020s, etc. it's when it gets too specific is when it gets dated and less funny. i liked the iphone episode and proposition infinity when they first aired, but some of the jokes haven't held up and i don't care to watch them when they're on, compared to episodes like the late phillip j fry
I'll grant you the iphone and birther episodes but disagree on proposition infinity
same-sex marriage is a relevant issue that's not going to go away anytime soon, it's not too specific to proposition 8 (much apu about nothing, also inspired by a california proposition, holds up remarkably well), civil rights has been a long-standing theme of the show (fear of a bot planet comes to mind), and there's quite a bit of precedent for it (there's a throwaway joke about robosexuals in the very first episode). it's pretty on-the-nose and far from the best episode but I don't think it's insta-dated
the gay marriage issue has only been a hot topic in the media for the past decade or so, but i do remember reading about marriage laws made before that. i kind of clumped those satirical episodes in together due the renewal, it covered something other shows like simpsons, family guy, and south park did years before, so i was thinking about the plot. i'll take american dad's homeland insecurity over mypods and boomsticks any day because of when the episode was made. i will stand corrected dark homer, i wasn't thinking about that when i made the post and you've got a good point. i completely forgot about the robosexual thing. i think i dated a robot would've been a classic if not for that napster shit
I thought this was hilarious and the story had enough sci-fi elements to work on its own without the real life references.
I forgot to review this earlier because last week was kind of a mess, but better late than never.
I agree with the general sentiment that whenever Futurama gets overly topical with the current events, it doesn't generally end well. When you do these kinds of things, they should generally be done with restraint, and not whack the audience over the head with the satire. Unfortunately, Futurama's usual shtick is to hang lampshades on every single joke, so a current event episode turns into reference after reference after reference of, "OH LOOK, IT'S JUST LIKE THIS OTHER THING." The whole premise with the Earth certificate was already pretty shlocky, but did they really need to bring Kenya into it? The only thing they were missing was to bring out Barack Obama's head-in-a-jar to comment on how familiar the situation is.
That being said, the payoff is an excellent one and almost makes up for how on-the-nose the satire is. Having the guy be a time traveler (allowing him to witness his own birth) is really inspired and is a very Futurama-ish twist. And they brought in that great continuity stuff from Bender's Big Score as icing on the cake. There probably isn't one bad thing in Act 3, actually. The whole time travel logic of it does get a little messed up in the end, but that's always been an inherent problem with Futurama time travel. Even Bender's Big Score, with it's "self correcting" time travel, still doesn't quite make it out unscathed.
It's one of those rare episodes that I can't really identify how it could be fixed. You can't have the big payout without the shlocky premise, but there's got to be a better way to execute a Birther parody to make it seem fresh. Tricky stuff.
I specifically worded my post so that it didn't sound as if the show never reflected pop culture back on its original run. The difference here is that it's boring; it's not producing new episodes. I'm not amused by them.
I can't help but feel they're limiting themselves.
I'm not saying that they shouldn't touch on anything related to modern-day, although for example, Zapp Brannigan talking about CSI: Miami and making an enhance joke was dated and out of place. It is of course a very large issue but tying it into one instance is a fault, I feel. Turning the "8" on its side isn't that clever.
That said, that's not the only or main reason I dislike the episode.
The biggest question with these sorts of episodes is, will it hold up years from now, perhaps with someone unfamiliar with the material? This episode has some interesting ideas but I feel like it's too far hooked into its source, without enough substance of its own. In regards to the Napster episode, they picked something that is always going to be around (illegal filesharing) and tied it too closely to real life.

I don't know, I think this will hold up just fine. Even if we didn't know anything about the real story the plot is still perfectly understandable. Maybe it wouldn't be a political or social commentary anymore, but as a story that begins with politics and ends with a sci-fi twist I think it will make perfect sense in years to follow. That's not to say that I don't think they should maybe 'mask' these things a little more, but I think the plot is interesting on its own, especially in the last part.
I freaking loved this one.
A 4.5/5 rounded up for the polls.
I can say that it was a pretty good one. I was really hoping that this one will be better than the episode of policy we had in the Simpsons in season 23 and this really the case. It is true that usually the episodes on the policy works better than in the Simpsons. At the end, before we see Travers disappear, I had also said: If he becomes president, one who is just born (him baby) will not return in time to prevent to be the president if Nixon isn't the president at this moment. Then seeing him disappear, I saw they had thought of everything and I am well pleased. So I give a 3,5 to this episode => 4 in the poll.

So Far So Great!

About Me Casual Cook
Best Uses
Comments about GE Profile 36" Stainless Steel Built-In Gas Cooktop:
This model is well made, heats quickly and is far better that my old Kennmore! I have been really impressed by the quality of the construction of this cook-top. The grates are heavy and fit very snug in the body. Heats quickly and maintains low heat too. The lights underneath the dials is a nice touch too. Very happy!
Service and delivery comments:
I was a bit skeptical about ordering a cooktop on line, but decided to go with ABT because they at least provided a timeline. I have to say, I got this cook top the SAME week I ordered it. Top quality delivery, super fast shipping. Totally worth paid shipping in a few days v. free shipping in 2 weeks! THANKS!

About Me Avid Cook
Comments about GE Profile 36" Black Built-In Gas Cooktop:
I thank God, I bought this from ABT,because they made the exchange so easy for me. My old,original cooktop was stainless steel which I did not want to buy again because it scratches so easily, so I bought this GE in Black. Well black is a real pain to keep clean,and every little piece of crumb of any kind shows on it,and it streaks so easy. Had it for 1 week and WONDERFUL ABT let me exchange it for white with absolutly no problem. I love the cooktop itself, it is wonderful.. My only problem was the color. Now I can relax thanks to ABT. God Bless them..

While the race for Columbia College's seat in the University Senate this year is highly contested, the candidates generally shared the same stances on issues discussed at a debate Sunday afternoon.
About 50 people—the largest turnout for a student election debate in recent memory—showed up to the debate in the Satow Room in Lerner Hall.
The nine candidates, most of whom are new to student government, focused on the development of the Quality of Life Survey distributed last April and the Barnard Columbia Divest ballot initiative. All the candidates stressed the need for transparency in the senate and encouraged students to take a more active role in student government.
Yassamin Issapour, CC '15, said that the Quality of Life Survey results can bring about important discourse on the state of student wellness on campus.
"Now is the opportunity that we can take to make a discussion, an open discussion, about sexual assault and wellness," she said. "The ubiquitous window stoppers prevalent in dormitories across campus really aren't going to cut it. We need to bring those conversations in the senate."
Conor Skelding, CC '14, ran on the platform of enacting reforms based on the results of the Quality of Life Survey and offered suggestions to reform the survey, which was distributed last semester.
"At the risk of sounding like a hypocrite, I didn't fill it out. It was too long. And getting that thing in April—it's just not realistic. I think it was probably selected for people who were looking to take surveys during finals," he said.
Jacob Johnson, CC '17, said that he wanted to create narrower surveys that are distributed at more frequent intervals to get student opinions on issues affecting their lives.
"If we find that we want to make an adjustment to the Core Curriculum, if we want to not force students to take certain Core classes at the very beginning of college, then we should have a more specific survey of that issue," he said.
Most candidates wholeheartedly supported the idea of divesting University endowments from fossil fuels.
David Kang, CC '15, emphasized his role as Columbia University Democrats treasurer and the activism that he has done on campus as part of the organization.
"I'm here because 500 people signed the petition saying that we should divest from oil companies," he said. "I'm here because 200 people signed on the sexual assault policy and wanted me to come speak about that today. I'm here because people want me to do something about their issues, not my issues."
Other candidates focused on more nuanced topics, like the senate's digital presence and institutional reforms.
Manik Uppal, CC '14, called for the creation of a comprehensive University services app for smartphones. Uppal said that an app could make a big difference in the way students interact with campus resources.
"Let's centralize it as one main portal—LionLink, CourseWorks, SSOL—instead of having to navigate to every single website," he said. "I know it's a small inconvenience, but I still think it can be helpful. … I also think that, frankly, I can use my position as senator, my responsibility, to leverage publicly certain issues that I don't think the senate can address."
Samer Ozeir, CC '15, was not as familiar with the issues as some of his opponents. A former varsity basketball player, he used an analogy to suggest that his relative lack of experience was not a problem.
"Let's say you're on the basketball team. What do you do when a freshman comes on the team and he's better than everybody? You let him play," he said.
David Froomkin, CC '15, who ran for senate last semester, said that his campaign was focused on fixing a broken system. He advocated releasing all senate committee meeting minutes and deliberations to the public.
"My platform rests primarily on a set of reforms to fix the senate. Students should set the agenda, but right now, we're not even allowed to know it. In the 21st century, direct participation is not a fantasy," he said.
Marc Heinrich, CC '16, emphasized the fact that he was the only current senate staffer running for the position. He often played the role of the pragmatist, explaining senate procedures and the feasibility of certain campaign platforms.
"There are some committees that will not be opened," Heinrich, a Spectator nonprofit development analyst, said. "A committee discussing academic tenure, for example—that's not necessarily going to be possible. I think within the context of the senate, you need to figure out how to navigate it," he said.
His experience gave him a leg up, Heinrich added.
"You need to be able to work within the confinements of the senate, and know what can get done," he said. "I think, having that experience, I'll be able to use that knowledge, and see what can and can't be done and what's feasible."
Alexander Andresian, CC '14 and a former senate staffer, talked about his experience in the senate.
"I've spent a full year on the senate," he said. "I've built relationships with current senators. I'd be able to talk to them. They know me. They know my face. I think a properly functioning senate is based on students building a coalition and pushing agendas forward."
In a lighthearted moment, Andresian also disputed claims made by The Lion over the weekend in a post the blog framed as a "non-endorsement" of Skelding that Andresian strangled kittens. Andresian assured the audience that in fact, he has never done so.
Peter Bailinson, CC '16 and vice president of communications for Columbia College Student Council, said that he will vote for Heinrich, a friend, in the election.
"I was very impressed by how informed all the candidates seemed about the issues," he said. "I feel most optimistic with Marc in the senate after listening to the debates. He's going to be the most effective in implementing his ideas because he understands how the senate works."
Current University Senator Jared Odessky, CC '15, said that while the debates were helpful, it is important to see how the candidates perform through the entire campaign period in order to make the most informed decision in the voting period, which runs from Wednesday to Friday.
"At the very least, we were able to hear steering philosophies on how people approach the senate. I think that's important in selecting our next senator," he said. "I don't think that not having experience with the senate disqualifies anyone from running. It oftentimes can provide a fresh perspective."
Michael Greenberg, CC '16, said that while he is still undecided, he is more informed about the race as a whole after attending the debate.
"It's obviously going to be a difficult decision, given that so many people running are eloquent, qualified, and dedicated to this," he said. "This debate did help bring to light some differences between the candidates, so I definitely feel that I'm going to be in a better position to cast my vote."
Spectator Editor in Chief Sammy Roth, who moderated the debate, recused himself from the editing of this story.

I'm reading a book called "Algebra success in 20 minutes a day" and I'm stuck at the part about adding like terms.
Is there a lesson about that on this site or through your youtube channel ?
We got a little bit about it here in this section
The thing to remember is that like terms are terms with the same variable (or exponential variable). If you have a longer expression that you are about to simplify it can be of help to remember that the sign before each number "belongs" to the number i.e. if we were to add the like terms in the following expression
we can begin by grouping all like terms
and then we can just add all like terms and will then get
if it's hard using the variables think of them as a thing e.g. an apple.
If we've got 2 apples and then buy one more we will have 3 apples. If we then were to give an apple each to 4 people we would realize that we're missing one apple i.e. -x
Hope this was helpful eitherwise just tell me!
This is the way I did the above problem
2x + 4 - 7 + x +5 -4x
3x + -3 + 5 - 4x
-x + 2 (final answer)
Is this right or wrong ?
It's very much right! You've just written the terms in a different order compared to me, but the answer is the sam. 2+3=3+2

Watch 18 City Council candidates debate issues facing DetroitBy Crain's Detroit Business
Eighteen candidates are vying for nine Detroit City Council seats, and Detroit Public Television wants to make sure voters get to know where the candidates stand on the issues facing the city. DPTV's nonpartisan MiVote project has produced eight 20-minute debates featuring all of the candidates.

The Risk Externalities of Too Big to FailNassim Nicholas TalebNYU-Poly; Université Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne - Centre d'Economie de la Sorbonne (CES) Charles S. TapieroNYU Poly - Department of Finance and Risk Engineering November 1, 2009 NYU Poly Research Paper Abstract: This paper examines the risk externalities stemming from the size of institutions. Assuming (conservatively) that a firm risk exposure is limited to its capital while its external (and random) losses are unbounded we establish a condition for a firm to be too big to fail. In particular, expected risk externalities' losses conditions for positive first and second derivatives with respect to the firm capital are derived. Examples and analytical results are obtained based on firms' random effects on their external losses (their risk externalities) and policy implications are drawn that assess both the effects of "too big to fail firms" and their regulation.

- An empty St. Paul Macy's would be a challenge, but not hopeless (w/ video)
White linen
wild rice soup
& crystal chandeliers
If your heart belongs to St. Paul, you know what I'm writing about, don't you?
The River Room, of course.
"I simply MUST go to lunch at the River Room before it closes," I wrote on Facebook. "I will miss the popovers. I am so sad about Macy's closing in downtown St. Paul."
Others felt the loss, too:
"Can I join you? I'm already missing them."
"Me, too! I am sad about the River Room more than the store leaving."
"Oh, my gosh -- I'm so sad to hear that it's closing. My late grandmother used to take me there for wild rice soup and popovers when we would take the bus downtown to Dayton's & Donaldson's for a day of shopping.
I miss those days! If you go, will you take a photo and post it?""But you can get the popovers at the Macy's Oak Grill in downtown Mpls," a Facebook friend commented.
Um. No, I can't (won't).
"As a St. Paul person, it is my policy to never go to Minneapolis," I wrote.
When I go to Minneapolis, I feel like I'm betraying St. Paul, and I love St. Paul.
Besides, for me, popovers belong to St. Paul and its River Room. They are part of the tapestry I began weaving when the Pioneer Press hired me almost 20 years ago. In the 1990s and 2000s, I often lunched there during the workweek -- with sources, colleagues, friends.
When the economy tanked, though, so did the business lunch. At least, it did for me.
That's OK. Now that I'm a mother, I rarely have the luxury of lingering over any lunch, ever. These days, I usually work through lunch as I try to get everything done before it's time to pick up my children from day care, school or activities.
But I did linger back on Nov. 9, 2007.
It was a special occasion: I was lunching with my daughter at the River Room.
My girl -- who turns 9 in February -- was only 3 at the time. It is bittersweet to go back and read my blog post about our special holiday outing.
She stood out among the business suits in line, she in her red glitter shoes.
"When the three hostesses saw her, they were admiring her so much that she lost her initial shyness and started doing ballet moves for them," I wrote.
Once we were seated, though, she was like everyone else: She loved the popovers.
The puffy popovers are almost as big as a small child or a large animal, so that's all she ate.
Afterward, we oohed and aahed over the Christmas ornaments. We bought some accessories.
"I'm having a great day!" she said.
The memories -- they can't take those away from us, St. Paul.

Yesterday Newt Gingrich ended his bid to become the 45th President of the United States. He ended with the style, bravado and salesmanship that are his hallmarks.
From Q13Fox.Com
Newt Gingrich brought his presidential campaign to an anticlimactic close Wednesday before several dozen family members, aides and supporters at a suburban Washington hotel.
Technically, Gingrich "suspended" his candidacy, allowing him to turn his attention to retiring a campaign debt of more than $3 million. The announcement wasn't news, however, since he had said last month that he would do so, after running out of excuses to continue his campaign. His second and last primary victory was almost two months ago, in his former home state of Georgia, and he has finished far back in most of the GOP voter tests.
"Today I'm suspending the campaign but suspending the campaign does not mean suspending citizenship," Gingrich said. He and his wife, Callista, "owe it to America" to remain active politically, he said. Gingrich said he would work to elect Republicans at all levels this fall.
"As to the presidency, I'm asked sometimes, is Mitt Romney conservative enough, and my answer is simple: Compared to Barack Obama? You know, this is not a choice between Mitt Romney and Ronald Reagan. This is a choice between Mitt Romney and the most radical, leftist president in American history," Gingrich said.
There had been speculation that Gingrich hoped to go out by appearing with Romney, the party's presumptive nominee, whom Gingrich has tacitly endorsed. Romney campaigned in a nearby northern Virginia town Wednesday, but his schedulers didn't make time for his one-time foe.
Gingrich choked up once, briefly, at the outset, when he repeated a familiar line about his two grandchildren, Maggie and Robert, being his best debate coaches. The youngsters stood alongside Gingrich on a small stage with other family members.
The 68-year-old Republican called his campaign "a truly wild ride," adding that "I could never have predicted either the low points or the high points."
Newt is right. We are not getting Ronald Reagan this time. We are getting Mitt Romney. And this is why we so desperately need Newt Gingrich.
When I endorsed Newt back last September, I said I did for a number of reasons but one of the most important was that Newt is an incredible visionairy and a man who knows how to lead a revolution.
We need a conservative revolution and we will need to fight this with new ideas. Romney is not going to bring us those new ideas.
He is a technocrat.
Gingrich is the innovator.
Even though he is gone from the Presidential race, we need him. He has a great opportunity now to rally conservatives and advance the conservative ideas that we need so desperately to save the nation after the damage done to it by the Obama, Pelosi, Reid axis of fiscal evil.
Newt needs to turn his campaign for President into a massive campaign for ideas.
Let's hope he does.
Romney, go home by Ann Barnhardt
I watched Ann's speach, Tracy.
I didn't catch the date of it, but from her comments it must have been a while ago. One can't really refute her points, maybe her future predictions. If Romney goes along her path, buy lots of ammunition.
However Romney doesn't exist in a vacume. He has lots of advisors, and lots of money people backing him he has to answer to. That conglomerate won't allow him to do anything really stupid.
If it is really a choice between bad and badder (I know there's no such word), bad is the best choice.
As nice as it would be, we don't now have time to reinvent our political system between now and NOV.
The only choice possible for those who rebel against what is, is to make the best of what's presented or drop out. Dropping out in my mind always takes me back to the fellow who's mantra was 'tune in, drop out', before his acid trip. I forgot his name. He's dead long since.
If you want to have a discussion, Ann, you have my email address in your files. If you've purged your files, I'm in the book.
Peter Sowatskey amazon.com/kindle/greenergreen
ps don't forget, ABSENTEE BALLOTS for the elderly in your circle come NOV.
Tune in, turn on and drop out. Timothy Leary, advocate for LSD, who virtually single-handedly (well, with the help of a willing press) brought drug use out of squalid back alleys into America's living rooms. In about 1961 his pronouncements about the 'mind expanding' powers of LSD were found worthy of front page space in the newspapers and there they stayed for what seemed like months on end. The children and young adults who died or were permanently brain-damaged were not deemed as newsworthy (their stories were buried in the inner pages) unless they were the children of someone famous, and there were several of those.
A quick search reveals that reports of the rise of drug use in America treat it as a spontaneous social phenomenon. Yeah, right!
Alas, The truth is a perennial orphan.
Well you can put some of the blame on bones Coulter the RNC and Flux News and even some radio host as well as the administrators of net works like freedom torch ETC. for the downfall on Newt which will probably be the downfall of the Republican for President.
Listen up people! i know getting the Tea party Candidate Elected was well looked forward to> that is now not going to Happen! lets move forward! I Don't want to herec all of your complaints! this is the course of action that now has to occur!
We must form a "POLITICAL LOBBY" Period! Yes that will entail every responsible Tea Partier to "pay Dues" and we will have to Register as a Congressional/Executive Lobby and pay Lobbyist's such as Newt, Sarah, and possibly Allen West, or Michele Bachman. Let's hope there are many vothers to fill this position. Let us also build an organization to support them putting our ideas through at "all levels of Government." Just as the NAACP AND ACLU does. Nancy and Harry declared War on us by declaring "the Tea Party Must Die!"
ARE we ready to move to the next level! I hope so or we will die just like the "Party of Treason" and President O'Bama wants us to!
God bless America and the Tea party with its six Divisions
I think we thought that "We could take one great giant step and be ,out of the ditch". But, I am afraidf whis may take two elections and much more work before we get the "communists to backing up".
Fox News is running scared because of the Progressive's going after Murdock - they are bringing Fox down one way or another - if they let fear run their network they will fall just as fast - OReilly has been touting Obama's "eligiiblity" because he is trying to keep on the air - if newcastors with any balls left would just stand up to these jokers they could defeat them..
O'reilly may be running scared but his arrogance and sanctimony has not diminished.
What scares me is that Ted Turner would be comfortable with Romney in the White House (said on CNN) - doesn't Turner want the population to decrease?
Turner & Romney & Trump are "Money Players".........never forget their "focus".
Everything else is "just conversation".
Yes - ideas need to be clearly expressed to wake people up - am very concerned that we will come off wishy washy - Newt had a rational immigration policy - you know no politician is going to split up families of people who have been here for years - but he would close the borders to more nonsense first = I think he would have done it - Obama is going to rely on the Hispanic vote - (of course illegals too) - they should be made to realize the socialist politics going on will turn this country into the nightmare they left...

This is a great phone for the money when it launched. I personally own one of these device. It has great potential even when it's not rooted. It comes with tons of features. It was one of the first few devices to boast the qHD resolution. It's dual core performance is more than enough for it be in the standard among phones for over a year or two. Which is a lot of time considering how cell phones are evolving. When rooted this phone unleashes it's power with overclock capabilities of 1.5Ghz to 1.7Ghz dual core. This overclock will depend on phone to phone as silicone quality will vary from phone to phone. It's has the capabilities to match almost to the samsung galaxy s2, if NFC and front facing camera's are not much of importance. It's unique unibody is great and having the battery cover as part of the antenna is quite clever. I also like the idea of not having to remove the battery to access the microsd card.
I've done alot with this phone. It is not supported in the official MIUI releases which makes this phone even better. Who ever is looking to get a phone that has a 4.3" Display with a high resolution for T-Mobile carrier. I would say look no more, buy it and enjoy it as me and others have.
baught this phone as gift for wife as x-mas and she loves it fast phone works great nice features nice big bright screen first android ever owned and has been a wonderful expierience so far wish battery life was better but i guess if phone were meant for internet use only well they whouldnt have computers lol.
I have heard that HTC offers the best looking Android shell for the candy bar type devices and after using the Samsung version of the shell I'd have to agree. The phone works well and the interface is the best. The transferring of personal data (like contacts and photos) however, could be a bit smoother. The 4.3 size screen is ideal for my wife - her phone really, but I have been spoiled with the 4.5 size of the Galaxy SII and would not go down in size from there.
Overall, I like the phone and would recommended.
Overall, I like this phone. Feature wise, having Android gives me plenty of things on the market to download but I'd rather have plain android rather than HTC Sense. But things run fairly smoothly even with it there.
Battery life to me isn't fantastic but I'm coming from a G1 which was terrible until I had a brick of a battery to keep it running. The battery is strong enough to handle about 1 1/2 hours of GPS time and ends up at about 19%. (My experience from a recent trip) Beyond that if I use it consistently throughout the day, I'm charging it every night.
It runs apps well, doesn't hesitate with the apps I run. Plays video smoothly when I'm streaming from HBO to go or Crunchyroll.
When I was looking for an android phone I knew I couldn't afford the latest greatest but this one had been that at one time and the prices are more reasonable for it.
As for comparisons, I'm partial to Apple's interface and usability . Android still has a ways to go in making the users' experience easy and well designed as Apple's. However, for an Android phone, this one is very pleasant to use.
Great underrated phone, I would say it's as good as the Amaze 4G aside from the camera module. It's super fast, does 4G, has a QHD screen that is sharp, and its a very slim and good looking phone. What else do you want?
I bought this for my wife, to replace her on-contract phone, and i didnt want to buy it from t-mobile, cause then it would mean a new 2 yr agreement, and the extra hassle. I got a great price on ebay.
The phone is a slight battery hog, if you turn everything on, and that's true for all phones, but the 4G does eat the battery slightly quicker.
