Re: 'The ups and downs of Chris Brown' (Metro, July 16)
I'm seriously disappointed in you, Metro. A two-page spread on Chris Brown? Really?
I don't care how slow of an "entertainment gossip" day it is; dedicating two pages to a man who severely beat a woman is sad, not to mention a waste of space.
Giving him points and then subtracting them for bad things he's done!? In the future, use the two pages for something worthwhile — maybe a list of charities or causes to which you could donate.

Should work fine just evenly divide the batter between the pans so the rising works right

The pilot of a Piper PA-28-180 Cherokee apparently was unable to correct for a crosswind while landing at French Valley, CA, Airport (F70) on Friday afternoon. The pilot reportedly lost control of his airplane, struck an airplane that was taxiing for takeoff from the airport, and then slid across the tarmac, damaging seven others along the way.
The pilot was reportedly not injured. His passenger, a woman, was taken to a local hospital, according to a news release from the Riverside County (CA) fire department. Her injuries were said to be minor.
It was reportedly a very gusty day on Friday. One witness, a server at the airport restaurant, told the southern California newspaper The Press Enterprise that she saw the airplane come in, go down, and hit the other aircraft. It stopped when it went nose-first into an plane parked on the ramp, but not before several aircraft were damaged.
FAA spokesman Ian Gregor told the Temecula Patch that the pilot of the Cherokee tried to regain altitude after striking the taxiing airplane, but was unable to do so.
FAA records show the airplane as a 1964 PA-28-180 registered to Chad Hutchins of Flagstaff, AZ. It is not known if he was flying the plane at the time of the accident.
(Similar aircraft pictured in file photo. Not accident airplane)

text: I used music to overcome the hardship. It made me think that I really have the facet of an artist. To be in pain doesn't necessarily mean that you are doing something for others. There isn't anything you can do for others, either. Being in pain only affects me. But there are those who enjoy listening to me. I wanted to be able to do something for other, even when things were going hard for me. Shouldn't I do something to help? I think I do music because such thoughts are so strong.


text: Cliff Dochterman, a man who has dedicated his life to helping others and various community causes, was named this week as the 2014 Moraga Citizen of the Year. He will be honored on Friday, May 2 at a banquet at St. Mary's College Soda Center.The award is co-sponsored by the Moraga Valley Kiwanis Club, the Contra Costa Times, the Lamorinda Sun and the Moraga Chamber of Commerce.Dochterman, 88, has been a Moraga resident since 1994, has led many local community initiatives, but has even made a bigger impact on humanitarian causes around the world.He perhaps is best known for his involvement with Rotary International, where he started as a member in Berkeley some 56 years ago and has a perfect attendance record during those six decades. During his time with Rotary, he has served in almost every Rotary assignment in the world and was elected as the World President of the 1.2 million member organization during 1992-93. His theme during his presidency was "Real Happiness is Helping Others," and he has led his life with that as a guiding principal.During his time with Rotary, Dochterman has been recognized for his initial leadership in creating The Rotary Foundation's PolioPlus Program, Rotary's worldwide effort to eradicate the polio polio: see poliomyelitis. virus. Over 2.5 billion children have received polio vaccines a result of Rotary's work with the World Health Organization, UNICEF and other program partners and the effort has reduced the disease by over 99% since the initiative began in the mid 1980s, with only three countries still showing evidence of the disease. Recently, the Bill Gates Foundation has joined hands with Rotary to continue the polio eradication process and since its inception, there has been over $1.3 billion raised in the cause which Dochterman helped initiate and over 99% of polio cases worldwide have been eliminated due to the ambition project.Dochterman has led many local community efforts including beautification projects with Moraga parks and recreation department (including play structures in local parks for the community's youth), and recently helped create the Moraga Employee of the Month program, honoring deserving town employees. He often is seen working the popcorn machine at the Rotary booths at community faires, local youth swimming and soccer events. In 2012 he was appointed to serve as Moraga's representative to the Contra Costa County ACOA (Area Council on Aging) which helped guide local senior issues. He initiated the fund raising campaign to enable the Rheem Theater to meet the needs of handicapped individuals.He has served for nine years on the board of directors of the Moraga Country Club, where he continues to reside. He was very instrumental in the program to build a new clubhouse.In addition to his Rotary association, Dochterman has a lifelong association with the Boy Scouts, since he earned the Eagle Scout award in 1939 at age 13. He has been awarded three of the highest honors of the Boy Scouts of America including the Silver Beaver, Silver Antelope (1981) and Distinguished Eagle Award (1991). He currently is a member of the Executive Board of the San Francisco Bay Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America.His professional career in higher education included 20 years at the University of California (Berkeley) and 20 years at the University of Pacific. He has served as the president of the Stockton Chamber of Commerce and chairman of the San Joaquin County Parks and Recreation Commission. He also has been a recipient of the George Washington Honor Medal of the Freedoms Foundation of Valley Forge for his contributions to the American way of life.With his relaxed and folksy oratory style, Dochterman has been one of the most popular speakers for Rotary and other organizations worldwide. He estimates he has spoken at over 2000 events during his career as a volunteer with Rotary and in educational circles in more than 100 countries. He has been honored by heads of state of dozens of countries for spreading goodwill and world understanding. He also is an established author, most recently writing "As I was Saying," a collection of 23 of his favorite speeches.Although Dochterman is considered a worldwide leader and holds three honorary doctor's degrees, he willingly and quietly takes time to volunteer on numerous community tasks no matter how big or small. He has played Santa Claus for the past 17 years for Moraga children at the annual Moraga Country Club Christmas children's party; occasionally substitutes for the minister's sermon at St. Mark's Methodist Church; is a major supporter for the Moraga Hospice Christmas Tree; serves at the Hacienda Cinco de Mayo celebration; is a regular attendee and sponsor at Campolindo sports events; and assists at the Rotary-sponsored Field Day for Moraga school children or e-waste collection day. In serving the community and the world, this 88 year old gentleman has found that "happiness truly is helping others."

Justin Pitrucha is back in the Southeastern starting lineup. Ray Richards told KXII that he will start Pitrucha for the first time next Saturday when the Storm host Northwestern.
Pitrucha came off the bench in the Storm's 33-14 loss to #2 ranked Abilene Chrstian. He was effective, completing 24-34 passes for 225 yards and 2 touchdowns.
Pitrucha hasn't started a college football game in two and a half years. He missed the 2007 season due to academic reasons and missed 2008 after being arrested on drug charges.
Richards says that Pitrucha has done everything asked of him to put himself in position to get another chance to start at quarterback. "I think the team responded well (to Pitrucha), so we're going to go with him this week and see what happens," Richards said. "He moved the team and he did well. It's like any other position, if you've got one guy that's playing better at that point in the season, you make a change."

President Obama's closing remarks, reminding America about just who Governor Romney insulted with his "47 percent" remarks.
J.K. Rowling is the 47%.
And she became one of the 1% by someone in Government giving her a hand up.
Mitt Romney explaining in 1985 that Bain Capital's true purpose was to: "identify potential and hidden value in companies, buy significant stakes in these businesses, and then "harvest them at a significant profit" within five to eight years."
I'm sure all those Americans who lost their jobs as they were "harvested" to put money in the pockets of Mitt and his rich buddies are just so eternally grateful.
Wow. Everyone has their opinions about which ad hits hardest, but—WOW!! This one really nails Romney, because it nails him using his own voice.
Please "like" and "share" this with other Obama Supporters, and maybe even a few Romney Supporters, too.

Even though Beijing Automotive (BAIC) tendered a non-binding offer for Opel, the company is said to have no chance of actually acquiring the brand. General Motors is still in talks with Magna and its partners, GAZ and Sberbank, and according to Sberbank CEO German Graf, "The choice has been made and the question now is of how to structure the deal."
Observers also feel that the GM-Magna agreement is merely waiting on some dotted I's, crossed T's and that the deal won't fall apart unless Magna blows it up or walks away. That hasn't stopped GM and the German government from creating the appearance of courting other bidders for Opel and Vauxhall, including BAIC and Belgium's RHJ.
BAIC appears to be serious, even if everyone assumes that GM's just using it as a decoy. Magna wants to get the paperwork inked by July 15, and that's around the same time that BAIC wants to make a binding offer for Opel's purchase. It's working with Deutsche Bank and PriceWaterhouse Coopers on its proposal, and we can only assume BAIC will be ready with a bag full of cash in the unlikely event Magna exits stage left.

Meghan Jones: Dating Jake Pavelka For Some Reason!by Free Britney at . Comments
Jake Pavelka, the former star of The Bachelorette, The Bachelor and Dancing With the Stars, has a new girlfriend in Meghan Jones, a Dallas wedding planner.
The pool of available men must be running dry in north Texas.
Just kidding ... sort of. Anyway, the two made their public debut Monday at Dancing With the Stars' 200th episode party in Los Angeles. Here's a photo:
Meghan Jones loves Jake Pavelka. She must not watch much TV.
"She makes me look really good!" Jake said, noting that a "great friend" introduced them "less than two months ago." Wait... Jake has friends? This is a wild story.
While she lives in Dallas and he's in L.A., they haven't faced too many distance issues yet. "Her family actually lives in Orange County," Jake Pavelka said.
Jake, who was dubiously engaged to Vienna Girardi earlier this year, is just gushing about Meghan Jones. Their favorite way to spend time together? Travel.
"We're going to flip a coin in the morning," he said. "It's either going to be Hawaii, Australia, Bali or Bangkok." We'd suggest eHarmony instead, Megs.
Give this guy a break.jake got stuck not doing what he should have he went for looks and passoin.there is nothing wrong with that.but tenley was right that was going to grow for them.and that not being able to be himself with tenley.that i think would have worked it self over time.
Hi i just wanted 2 say hello
Jake You Go! I Think You Are Wonderful, In Your Defense I Thank You Handled It As Should Anyone In Your Place Would Have.You Can Only Get Your Buttons Push So Far And You Had Enough, We All Have Our Limits!You Hang In There , More People Are On Your Side Than You Think!My Arms Are Around You!
he's that bad.
Ummmm...this guy is a famewhore and a loser!
Oh man he really isn't that bad. He got a little out of control with the celebrity going to his head. But I'm sure most people would've acted the same way. Give him a break, wish him the best and let it go
I agree, he's not that bad. I'm not saying he was perfect by any means on his Bachelor season, but I hope that he's learned his lessons well, come back closer to reality, and at 32 hopefully he's found the right woman in Meghan.
Oh, come on! He's not that bad.

The Raiders once again find themselves at 3-5 after 8 games, coming off a defeat at home. Unlike last year, where they lost in the final minutes to Tampa Bay, this last loss to Philadelphia was never in doubt. The Raiders defense did manage to give up another record performance to an opposing offensive player. Although you didn't expect it from this years vastly improved unit.
The Quarterback's name has changed but he's still a turnover machine and it's killing them. Turnovers are the single most important stat in the NFL and Terrelle Pryor has 9 interceptions in his 7 starts. Some have come off the hands of his receivers, but they are not bouncing off their chest, they are inaccurate passes. Pryor has to eliminate the turnovers if the Raiders are going to win any more games this season.
The Raiders got their first win in 10 years, in a game coming out of their bye week this year. Darren McFadden once again will never have played in all 16 games in a season. The Raiders travel to the East Coast next week, can they snap their losing streak in that time zone?
The defining moment of this 2013 season is coming next week in New York against the Giants. Coming off the beat down the Eagles game them, we will see the true character of this team. In previous years, a game like that would be followed by a few more just like it. They followed up a shellacking at Denver with getting Flynned at home against Washington. How they bounce back next week against the Giants is all that matters mid way thru this 2013 season.

Ovarian Cancer Health Center
Exercise May Cut Ovarian Cancer Risk
Data Details
The study has some limits. Self-reports can be flawed. Women may have mistakenly described their activity level "moderate" instead of "vigorous," say the researchers.
The questionnaires didn't cover the length of activity sessions, so there's no word on how long a woman would have to walk, for example, to get any ovarian cancer benefit.
About 20% of the patients the researchers wanted to include had already died, couldn't be located, or their physicians refused to contact them about the study. Of those who were contacted, nearly one in four (24%) did not return the questionnaire.
"This low response rate among cases was largely due to the poor prognosis of ovarian cancer, and it could affect the generalization of our results," write researchers.
About Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian cancer is the seventh most common cancer among women (not counting skin cancer) and women's No. 4 cause of cancer death, says the American Cancer Society (ACS).
The disease often has few early symptoms. Only about a quarter of cases are found at an early stage, when the chances of successful treatment are best, says the ACS.
Recently, other researchers But that test is not yet ready for widespread use.
At-Risk Women
Any woman can develop ovarian cancer. Women at high risk (such as those with a strong family history of the disease) may be screened with ultrasound and blood tests, says the ACS.
That's all the more reason to know your family's medical history, share it with your doctor, follow screening guidelines, and ask questions about any health concerns.
Other risk factors can include never being pregnant, decreased fertility, and delayed childbearing in women who have not used oral contraceptives. Some studies have also linked the use of fertility drugs to an increased risk of ovarian cancer.

Integrity Moments - Dec. 25, 2012
The Power of a Story
By: Rick Boxx
December 25, 2012
After the American Revolution, Christmas was viewed in America as an English custom and not widely celebrated. According to Wikipedia, in the 1820s, story tellers like Washington Irving and others encouraged new Christmas traditions.
In 1822, Clement Clark Moore released a poem now known as "Twas the Night Before Christmas." It was these stories that popularized exchanging gifts, and many believe, set us on the course of commercializing Christmas.
The real story began, however, in Luke 2 when an angel said, "I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord."
Many businesses want you to worship the gifts. Which story will be the focus of your Christmas?

Keyword(s):Socio-Cultural Aspects of Electroacoustic Music , Site Specific , Sound Installation , Public Art
Since mid-1999 the author has been working on an expanded concept of musical space not only incorporating space according to its spatial characteristics in the narrow sense (acoustic, architectonic, sculptural, perspective and ambient). Beyond this his installation works conceive of space in its site-specificity, usually existing in several layers: a social layer, a historical-political layer and a situational layer. This concept of space is thus not limited to interior spaces and architectonic-formal relationships, a position which naturally also defines his working methods: only subjective, on-site research yields the theme and concept of an installation. He calls such installations sound situations, following the 'conscious creation of situations' conceived by Guy Debord (International Situationists) in the 1950s.

It was her fourth win of the 2012 season and propelled her to earning the Rolex Player of the Year Award.

You go to class
|In a World Ruled by Robots
and macroeconomics is suddenly the most interesting thing in the world. Furthermore, that pie chart looks delicious.
and get kicked out of the room for punching the TA in the face. But whatever. He was asking for it, dude. He was looking at you all funny and shit.
only to find that class has been cancelled. Why would the robots possibly need econ majors when they can process millions of numerical equations a second? They don't. You are sent where you're needed the most: straight to the depths of the ore mines.
You get a phone call from your parents
In a World Ruled by Robots
|and can't stop thinking about the way your mom says "February." I mean, she says it like the isn't silent. What's up with that? And why do you keep repeating it to her? Now the is all that you can hear. Maybe it isn't silent. No, wait, that's not right. it's totally silent. Dude, what the hell are you even talking about?
and they immediately figure out that you are drunk. Luckily, it's your dad who does most of the talking, and he's drunk too. You convince him to send you a hundred dollars for books, but you both know where that money's going. He's an alright dude, your dad. He is alright.
|telling you that your little sister was killed by the robots. Those filthy, bloodthirsty robots.
You get pulled over by the cops
|In a World Ruled by Robots
"Sir, are you aware that you're driving erratically?"
"I'm in a CAR?"
|Wait, fuck that. You're not getting pulled over. If these cops want you, they're going to have to come get you. They're highly-trained law enforcement officials, you're seen The Fast and the Furious eighteen times. Let's do this.
|.and are informed that the penalty for being out after curfew is death. Efficient, strangely beautiful robot death.
You go for a walk through a bad part of town
|In a World Ruled by Robots
|and freak out. Sure, it's 8 in the morning, but that dog barking kind of sounds like a guy yelling "DIE! DIE! DIE!" and it's creeping you the hell out. It's like that dog from that movie, Cujo? Cujo was fucked up, dude! Oh, fuck, get out of there, man! Run! RUN LIKE THE WIND!
|and don't even give two shits. You're been doing Jager shots all night, and everybody knows that after nine of those things, you're pretty much invincible. You learn that the truth is slightly different, however, when you're stabbed eleven times. When you get out of the hospitatl you tell all your friends that it was twenty times and your arm was, "like, hanging off" when you kicked those ninja's asses.
|There are no bad parts of town. The robots took care of that – oh yes, they took care of that.
Someone picks a fight with you
|In a World Ruled by Robots
|and you accept his challenge, because it's impossible to really get hurt when you're sitting on the couch playing Street Fighter.
|about which one of you is drunker. This is a fight that somehow ends with both of you both winning and losing.
|Seriously? Have you ever fought a robot? Pretty much any way you play it, your face is going to end up looking pretty different. And by looking different, I mean converted into robot fuel.
You watch Terminator 2
|In a World Ruled by Robots
|and it is awesome.
|and it is awesome.
|and it is awesome though at the end of this version, John Connor dies. But that kid was kind of a tool anyway.
You check CollegeHumor.com
|In a World Ruled by Robots
|and spend 45 minutes watching an hilarious video before you realize it is actually just one of the banner ads.
|and leave comments on absolutely everything. Then you've still got a few opinions you need to share, so you leave comments on a few things that you aren't even supposed to, like the computer screen and your roommate's face. (comment: "8==D")
and masturbate furiously to the Cute College Robot of the Week. Man, check out those ports. She's so cute it gigahurts!

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My son started Kindergarten here and 2 months in my son is already reading his sight words in sentences--which to me that's a great accomplishment! The school is great academically (curriculum: reading, writing, science, gym, music, social studies and Spanish) and its teachers and staff are very nurturing. My son has an IEP for speech, and the school has accommodated the services. The teachers are very committed, and to me that's a great relief (& a peace of mind), because as a working parent I need to make sure that he's in great hands 8hrs of the day--maximizing his full potential. Homework are done and checked on a daily basis--parents do need be fully committed. Any questions or concerns i may have i can easily email the teacher and get an update. From a parents perspective, i highly recommend the school. Happy 15th anniversary Amber.
Amber Charter school is tops for education. This school has a reputation of being one of the oldest charter schools in NYC and the best at what they do.
My son just completed Kindergarten. It is a very nurturing school, teachers are very proactive and respond to any concerns you may have. There are two teachers per classroom and my son gets most of his support. My only major concern would be if your child has an IEP, it might be difficult to receive all the services your child may require such as SETTS. If they receive OT and PT they will need outside services because the school will not be able to accommodate, however they will support you looking for services. The teachers have been a great support, especially Ms. Laurie. They are truly dedicated to education.
This is great school. Both of my daughters are currently attending ACS. Classes are very small My daughter is in 5th grade and has 16 children in her class. Most of the teachers in the school have been their since she was in Kindergarden. My 6yr old's 1st grade class has 23 students w/ 2 teachers in class. The school has a great relationship with its parents they make you feel like your apart of a family. They have a Saturday classes for students who struggling academically. I wish they had a lot more extra curricular actives for the children besides Choir, Cheerleading and Basketball.
my son is in kindergarten and i am very satisfied wit h the progress he has made through out the school year. his teachers are great and they have a lot of patience with him as well as other students. keep up the great work. picking this school for my son was a great choice.
I believe that Amber is a great school for my child. The teachers and caring and administration is readily available.Every member of the staff cares about the well-being of my child. The teachers, security, meals and transportation...etc. If you are lucky enough to win a spot in this school, look no further. You've found home.
Amber Charter is a great school. Its small with a family type setting. The children are loved and taken great care of. The academics are great. Your child is tested regularly for growth and placed based on such. I love this school and I am sad that my daughter is leaving next year.
The staff at Amber School is wonderful. They are always willing to lend a helping hand and listen. The teachers genuinely care about the students and involve parents. Those are key ingredients to a wonderful school network for children's success.
My child is in kindergarten and I appreciate that so early on Amber takes a childs education very seriously and the staff treats parents and students alike with the upmost respect. Amber is a great school and I would highly recommend it.
My child has been attending since Kindergarten and he does very well. Excellent communication with teachers and staff members.
I feel that Amber is an excellent chose of school to select for any child to attend. The staff is very caring and the teachers do an excellent job in teaching the children. Im comfortable in sending my child to school every day.
Amber has been a very good choice for my child, both environmentally and academically. I would advise more parents to choose Amber. It has been an excellent choice of mines and will continue to be so.
This the first year my child is attending Amber, he`s in kindergarten. I thought that he wasn`t going to adapt but he seems to be very happy. I am much more comfortable now knowing that my child is in a successful school and he's also safe. The teachers are very supportive and prepared. I so far only have to say positive things about Amber!
Amber charter is an excellent school.I am very happy that my child has the opportunity to be apart of a school that makes him feel confident and safe. The teachers and staff are great.
amber is a very good school and im very glade my son is going heir
Amber Charter School is one of hthe hidden gems in NYC. Nestled in the middle of an East Harlem block, you'll miss it if you walk too fast, and if you did that would be such a shame because you'd be missing out on a whole lot. The environment is loving, warm, friendly and inviting, the true depiction of school being the second home! The staff is open and receptive to any problems and concerns and tries to offer the best solution possible. The unique design of the school is such that it accomodates all levels of students from those with special needs to the advanced. Although I am only a first year parent of a Kindergarten student, I can say that so far I am satisfied, from the teachers (Miss Loraine and Miss Eunice are absolutely, truly without a doubt the greatest on the planet) to the Parent Association. So far, so good! And I can only hope and pray that it cotinues...keep up the good work Amber :-)
I am very satisfied with My sons productivity since he started this School. All the teachers and staff are very helpful. Keep up the great work
It's my son's first year here as a kindergarten student and he has learned so many things in a matter of three months. The teachers are fantastic and always going the extra mile with the children as the staff is helpful and friendly, especially with parents. I'm happy my son is here and look forward to what's ahead as the years go on due to the great staff and teachers.
Iam pleased with how the staff is attentive to the needs of the parents and students. Anytime I come in to Amber with an inquiry or concern it is quickly and easily addressed.
Amber is a great super friendly school for both my daughter and myself.The teachers are very dedicated to the children and make sure no one slips through the cracks. I'am very greatful to have found this school.

text: Greetings, Lord Philip, et al, We could schedule a dance instructor round-table meeting sometime between courts, while the consort musicians are playing. I understand there is a room available, or we could just meet in the middle somewhere. Anyone interested in comparing notes with other dance teachers and/or planning future dance activities, please e-mail me (russmax at cowboy.net) so I can know who to look for. I'll try to have it heralded at the event, also. I do have a few ideas for advancing the state of dance in Ansteorra, particularly the north. It involves training interested dance instructors, perhaps publishing a dance-instructors' manual and CDs, and visiting groups in the north (or other regions) to help jump-start dancing in those groups. It might even involve having an all day event for training and equipping dance instructors. I can usually get a thirst for dancing going in a group, but when I leave, if there is no one there to carry on, interest often dies off. If you would like to get dancing going in your group, please e-mail me and/or seek me out at Coronation. I'll be dressed as a red and gold Renaissance Christmas tree ornament, but I won't be wearing glasses. I would love to talk to you. I also recommend attending the dance instructor round-table, if we manage to have it.

The hearts of western New Yorkers spilling over Sunday for one of the few telethons still running in the U.S. and it all benefits crucial services needed by thousands of children across our area. The people of this area have responded to the needs of children once again by raising more than one million two hundred thousand dollars during the 2011 Variety Club Children's Telethon.
"They have big hearts...not little hearts but big hearts, because they know it's for our children here, to help them and improve health and well being. And that's what we are all about," said Pat Somogye, this year's General Chairperson for the telethon.
Despite a weak economy, the Variety Club Telethon is a success each year. Steve Podosek is the Executive Producer of the telethon. "With everything that this area is facing...to have them come out and give our kids one million two hundred thousand dollars, it's remarkable. We are going to do a lot to make good things happen every day for our kids," he said.
"It's so much better to give than to receive as the saying goes. You get a different feeling inside when you are able to help any single child in any small way that you can," stated Joseph Salvatore one of this year's honorary chairpersons.
The telethon benefits local charities that serve children. The most recognized is Women and Children's Hospital of Buffalo. Hundreds work throughout the year to raise more than one million dollars. Paula Salvadore, the other honorary chairperson, remarked, "Unbelievable amount of volunteers that are behind the scenes in this. I don't really think western New Yorker even understands how many people are here. It's amazing and it's just wonderful that they touch so many lives. I don't even know if they realize how many lives they touch."
This was the 49th annual telethon. So, now what's in store for next year's. "Well it's going to be the 50th anniversary . I think we should do something bigger than we have ever done before. I do know that the committee is going to meet in two weeks...lay out the plans so we can get an early start. We are hoping to do a big, big think next year," said Bill Ransom, General Manager of WKBW-TV.

We've had the pleasure in recent weeks of witnessing meetings in which carriers, logistics providers and shippers have come together to exchange views and seek common ground.
Yet, as uplifting as such sessions have been, we can't escape the feeling that the different sides of the transport and logistics industry don't really understand one another.
That's why we've created a handy translation sheet to help carriers, shippers and others in the field understand what they really mean as they take part in the ongoing dialogue that keeps commerce moving.
If it doesn't work precisely as a translation device we hope at least that it works to lighten a few loads and help keep that exchange of views a friendly one.
When a carrier says capacity is tight, and you should know this, what they mean is rates are too low.
When a shipper says the check has been mailed, what they mean is, "We plan to file a claim by the end of the week."
When a carrier says there are no trailers available, what they mean is, "I've got 42 empty 53-footers in Moline right now if you add two cents a mile."
When a shipper says a load is 1,500 pounds, what they mean is, "The load is 1,650."
When a carrier says they can't handle multiple stops today, what they mean is, "Did you know we have an LTL division?"
When a carrier says, "I'll check on whether we can get something down to Tampa," what they mean is, "Only if you can get me some backhaul from Sarasota."
When a shipper says you're their preferred carrier, what they mean is, "We'll call you if our real preferred carrier can't get any backhaul out of Sarasota."
When a railroad says, "We can get it to Chicago in three days," they mean, "We can get it to Des Moines in five days."
When a shipper tells a railroad, "My rates are too high," what they mean is, "Whatever happened to the ICC?"
When a carrier or shipper says they have state of the art technology, what they mean is, "We think we've caught up to our competition."
When a forwarder says they are a value-added partner in the global supply chain, what they mean is they started a Web site.
When a carrier says they are known for their flexibility, what they mean is, "Not only can we turn on a dime but we'll stop to pick up the dime."
When a carrier says they can get a shipment to your city on Tuesday, what they mean is, "We'll get it to the greater metropolitan area, but delivery - when do you really need it?"
When a shipper says they need a delivery Tuesday, they need it Wednesday.
When a carrier says they will make the delivery Tuesday, they know the shipper doesn't really need it until Thursday.
When a carrier says they are adjusting rates, what they mean is they are raising rates.
When the receptionist says that Wal-Mart is on the phone about their upcoming logistics contract tender, what they really mean is that a reporter is calling and you wouldn't pick up the phone otherwise.
When a carrier or shipper says the economy is hurting them, what they mean is, "It's the media's fault."
And when a carrier or shipper says, "It's the media's fault," give us a call. We'll make it a story.

"Pretty Little Liars" recap (2.23) — The Jenna Thing's New Eyeball Thing
The Liars walk down the sidewalk and debrief the fact that Alison met with everyone on earth the day she was murdered by everyone on earth. Emily straggles behind and kicks rocks and weighs her choices for making out: Drive to San Francisco and possibly get killed by the people who killed Maya, Drive to Paige's house and possibly get drowned in the bathtub, track down boring ol' Samara and possibly get murdered by that horrible Quinn. There's a screech in the distance and the Liars look up to see Garrett just squealing his tires driving away from the Cavenaugh place.
A texts: "When you see smoke and fire, you will know that I have blown up another thing."
Theory two: Melissa is "A." She hates everyone, obviously, but she's killed most of them (Ian, Alison) already. Now she just needs to get rid of Garrett, which she'll do by framing him for burning down Jason's house at the end of the episode. (Plus: Access to Hastings lake house; access to Smitty's; ran like the wind when she found out her dad knew his gun was missing; heart is appalling dumpheap overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of rubbish imaginable, mangled up in tangled up knots.)
There are like 20 fireman in the Cavenaugh's backyard and apparently one of the things Toby learned while he was away was sign sign language because he does the official ASL sign for, "Four girls blew up my sister" over and over and over while the four girls who blew up his sister watch from the sidewalk.
At Wren Kingston General Hospital, Jenna and Toby wait to have her new eyeball checked out. She talks about how she wants Toby to help her fill her room with all the stuff from the Blind Girl Craft Fair so that when she finally takes off those damn sunglasses she can see for herself how talented she is at throwing ceramics. She says a lady did it in a movie once. Toby literally goes, "That lady was a mean old bitch." And then, as if conjured by the phrase, Wren appears to check out Toby's now cast-free arm and talk to him about how soft Spencer's skin is under her t-shirt. Toby's head actually explodes.
At school, Emily talks to Spencer about what a rough season it's been for her, what with Maya coming and going at her leisure, and also both of her parents doing the same thing, and the ninja from the greenhouse, and getting gassed in that barn, and then making out with a ghost. Spencer agrees that times are tough for the two of them. Why, the only time her parents show up is when they've worked out a plan to simultaneously inflict the most emotional damage on her. She hasn't decided yet if getting a new brother is a plus or a minus in the wins column. For some reason, he just wanders into the school courtyard at dusk and reminds them that he's got another sack of Alison's shit that Maya dropped off before leaving town.
Theory three: Maya is "A." As a member of the Dark Legion of the Lesbian Sisterhood, she is sworn to do the bidding of their Imperial Sith, Quinn The Worst. Quinn murdered Alison for one time looking at Samara and torturing Emily and her friends has just been a bonus for the one time Emily also looked at Samara. (Plus: Maya has had access to all of Ali's stuff, including journals and various headless dolls, since the pilot episode.
Ella stops by Ezra's office. He's just lounging on another piece of gorgeous furniture (as is his wont) reading through his notes about today's feelings (also his wont) and wearing the most adorable tie/shirt/vesy combo (more wonts). Actually, that's sort of Ezbian in a nutshell, isn't it? If only he had some organic apples that he picked from himself from the lesbian co-op just up the road in Vermont. Ella goes, "Aria said you sometimes need to process your feelings more than once, so here I am." He offers her an apple (there it is), but she declines. She just dropped by to say that while she's not on board with him boning her teenage daughter, she's not going to make a scene about it like her husband. And that's it. That's the thing they needed. Some common ground. Ezbian goes, "I'm drinking chocolate milk, Ella, the most non-threatening drink there is. And we both hate Byron. And I'm adorable with my coy half-smile. I think we should be friends." She agrees, but can't say so. As she's leaving she goes, "Do you know of anyone who would want to use your relationship with Aria to hurt her her or you or me?" Ezra sighs: "There was someone once. Jackie Molina. But Aria and I dumped her dead body in a dumpster months ago. She was a mean old bitch."
Rosewood High. Mona is multitasking: Chatting to Hanna about boy troubles, ordering some dynamite from Amazon.com on her phone, mentally inventorying her stockpile of body armor, and diagramming the best way to trap Jenna inside Jason's house. It's not just that Jenna stole Noel Kahn away; it's also that Jenna is bonking her brother again and Mona cares about Spencer too much to let incest touch her life anymore than it already has. Mona's like, "Don't worry, I got this." And Hanna believes her like we all believe her. Like we believe in the sun. Not only because we see it, but because by it, all things are seen.
Mona's plan was to pretend to want to buy Toby's pickup truck. I thought he abandoned that thing in Spencer's yard weeks ago with all the letters she ever wrote to him and a bottle of his tears. Guess he got it back. And is now selling it. Anyway, he's like, "Mona, I can't say that I really know you, but what I do know about you is that when you hit someone with a car, you want to make it stick. That's why you need a truck. I whittled the gun rack in the back all by myself." Hanna peeks around the corner: "Yoo hoo, Mona! Oh, hi Toby. Got a sec?" He does not, in fact, got a sec. Hanna goes, "You broke Spencer's heart!" And Toby goes, "You broke my sister's face!" Fair enough.

OPM strategy for clearing retirement backlog not just IT issue
Friday - 2/3/2012, 5:07pm EST
The overwhelmed retirement claims backlog at the Office of Personnel Management is only partly a technology problem.
At a hearing of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Subcommittee on Oversight, OPM Director John Berry said the agency is hiring new customer-service representatives to break the backlog.
"We've got to be smarter in how we do IT," Berry acknowledged. "But for the foreseeable future, we're dealing with a paper and pencil process and that's why I'm hiring more people and doing it within a frozen budget."
John Salamone, a managing consultant at FMP Consulting and the former executive director of the Chief Human Capital Officers Council, joined In Depth with Francis Rose to discuss the potential complications for OPM ahead.
OPM: Fixing retirement backlog 'vitally important'

Teresa Giudice Breaks Silence, Thanks Fans for Supportby Hilton Hater at . Updated at . Comments
Indicted on nearly 40 counts of fraud and facing 50 years behind bars, Teresa Giudice has spoken out for the first time since she and her husband entered a federal court building yesterday.
"Thank you all so so much for your love and support. It means the world to me and my family! TANTI BACI Xx," Giudice Tweeted this morning.
Yesterday, Teresa's lawyer also released a statement, saying his client is remaining calm and cool in the face of such legal troubles.
But other members of The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast are beginning to lose it.
Jacquelina Laurita vented her frustrations on Twitter today, writing:
"The press can stop coming2mydoor&calling my husband4us2comment regarding recent news... We have no comment, we reached out2castmembers directly.
"I don't like when people LIE to plant seeds to make others look bad, but I'm not worried bc I know in the end, the truth will come out. #RHONJ"
During Tuesday's hearing, Teresa and Joe were each released on $500,000 bond. They are yet to enter a plea and are due in front of a judge against on August 14.
Joe and Teresa Giudice believe they are above the law; therefore, they have disregarded it...39 times!
These people live their lives with a sense of entitlement, are injudicious, thoughtless and audacious; their recklessness is readily seen on RHONJ. For example, Joe nor Teresa exhibit any sense of self control, are absent of morals, values and ethics, and their judgment is ghostly. To say that their shortfalls are abundant is an under statement.
So, they are now facing prison time as a consequence of their behaviors, actions, and their sense of elitism. What were they thinking? I guess when you believe yourself to be better than others you just don't think!
As a parent, I always think about how my actions and behaviors effects my son No, I'm not perfect but I'm thoughtful, present, and I have a responsibility to my child. Happily, my son is kind, caring, thoughtful, compassionate, warmhearted, aware, and gentle. And, he's only 9! Sadly, Joe and Teresa's children appear to care more about shopping for Prada, rolling their eyes, and being disrespectful then anything else. Ummm...wonder where that comes from?
Joe and Teresa positivity didn't think about their four daughters when they decided to flagrantly brake the law. Why? Again, they believe themselves to be above the the law and seem unable to comprehend the ramifications of their criminal conduct...they just didn't think they would get caught. If they did consider the ramifications, that surely wasn't inclusive of the children.
I believe that each of them deserve to go to prison. Yes, both of them!
As parents, they have already failed...watch these kids...they, too have a sense of entitlement because their parents lead by example. I only hope that these kids can now be surrounded by people who can set good examples for them...give them rules, be present, teach them how to be compassionate, kind and empathetic. Enough with the shopping and being snobby, sassy and snippy.
Perhaps, Uncle Joe and Aunt Melissa will help raise the girls while their parents are paying their penance. Or, maybe cousin Kathy, Caroline or Jacqueline, as they all appear to know what is important in life...love, health, happiness and family. One can be privileged and still be grounded in reality; however, this doesn't apply to the Giudices.
No, I don't know the whole back story but I would be willing to listen; however, it doesn't change the fact that these people broke the law and decided to play with fire...now a lot of people are getting burned.
Lastly, if any of us "ordinary" folk would have claimed bankruptcy, our lives would have changed, drastically. How is it that Teresa and Joe continue to live a life a luxury?
In fact, as I write, Teresa is currently vacationing in the Hamptons. Hell, my cousin lives in the Hamptons, and I still can't afford to vacation there.
Maybe I should forgo my Social Work career because it certainly doesn't afford me to live in luxury. Nor, does the obligation of paying back my 40k graduate loans.
But, my career allows me to make a difference on a daily basis. And, I make my loan payment because it's the right thing to do, and it's the law.
Is it feasible to think that Joe and Tre thought that they were playing a game of Monopoly? You know, buying and selling properties, income tax, banking, houses, mortgages, bankruptcy, and landing in jail. I've concluded that they failed to remember the "jail" aspect of the game.
Bad things always fall on their own without anyone else having to do anything.Teresa unfortunately doesn't fear Karma but Karma is so real and it has now paid her a little visit. I don't feel sorry for her or Joe but I do feel for their ittle girls. Sometimes as adults we do things and we dont realize that they have a ripple effect and others around us. Lets see what lies they will come up with now and it would be a shame if the auhorities are taken for fools.

Fun and original story that didn't follow the usual historical romance
Very charming, with two great lead characters.
A charming book! While some of the scenes are more adult content, the eventual playfulness between Louisa and Felix is fun and entertaining to read.

Police: Hindenburg disaster gave homeowner idea to blow up house
Updated On: Nov 08 2013 12:34:38 AM EST
A Moon Township man got the idea to blow up his house after watching a documentary about the Hindenburg disaster, according to a criminal complaint.
Shawn Landa, 47, faces several arson and related charges for the blast that leveled his home on Charlton Heights Road in mid-October.
According to court papers, he told investigators he had been depressed.
Police said he admitted to taking the cap off a gas line at his house, and a few hours later, lighting a cigarette that ignited the explosion.
Landa was inside the house when it exploded at night on Oct. 12. Allen Lisica, 61, who was in a house next door, was also injured. Both men were found under piles of debris.

This will be on view next month at The Affordable Art Fair in NY, available through Elisa Contemporary.
So I've been doing some new things. Doing a little bit of figurative work. This is a fairly recent piece. I never knew how much hair could be in a beard!

Excited to finally be finished with this new painting! I've been working on it on and off for several months. It's headed to the Supersonic Electronic Invitational in San Francisco for their January show at Spoke Art. It's called "At the Drive In" and is oil on canvas. It's inspired by my love of watching 2001: A Space Odyssey as a kid on VHS and not really understanding what in the world was going on… Hope you like!
