City baseball teams going strong
Along with the summer weather, local Legion and Babe Ruth baseball teams are sizzling and chasing championship glory.
Once again, the Deering High-populated (with a couple Cape Elizabeth kids mixed in) Nova Seafood American Legion baseball team is in the hunt for a state title.
Last week, Nova won the Zone 4 championship. After a 15-3 regular season gave it the top seed for the playoffs, Nova downed Stockhouse, 7-4, and Libby-Mitchell, 6-4, to win the title.
Nova begins state tournament play Wednesday against Bessey Motors at Wainwright Field in South Portland. The double-elimination tournament continues through Sunday.
The regional championships are Aug. 5-9 in Middletown, Conn. The World Series will be held Aug. 13-17 in Spokane, Wash.
Cheverus' First Title team just missed the playoffs with an 11-7 mark. Portland's Andrews Post squad went 2-16 and failed to qualify.
On the Junior Legion side, Deering's Bristol Seafood team is in the state tournament. Bristol went 10-8 in the regular season and knocked off Kennebunk, 9-2, to advance to a best-of-three series with Seacoast Law and Title of Westbrook, which began Tuesday.
Portland's Babe Ruth 15 All-Stars were preparing to play in the championship game of their tournament against Westbrook at press time. Portland lost its first game, 3-2, in eight innings, to Midcoast North, but rebounded with a 5-2 victory over Tri-County North, 7-2 over Southern York and 8-3 over Midcoast North. In the win over Southern York, Portland broke the game open with a six-run fifth inning. Tim Rovnak and Nick Volger both had three hits. Tom Dean and Kyle Reichert both drove in two runs. Volger was also the winning pitcher. In the victory over Midcoast North, Portland rallied from an early 2-0 deficit behind Reichert's two-run homer, Caleb Fraser's three hits and two RBI and a strong pitching performance from Tom Dean.
If Portland was able to defeat Westbrook, it would win the state title and advance to the New England tournament in Quincy, Mass.
The Portland Babe Ruth 13 team sandwiched losses to Central Maine (13-9) and Somerset around a 12-0 (six inning) victory over Brunswick and was eliminated from its tournament.

Help picking my next brew?
So I posted a bit about my first batch that I actually like a great deal (American Light Ale kit from Morebeer.com which was 6lbs Ultralight LME, Crystal 15L grain steep, and 1.5 total oz of Cascade)
My next batch was a Warrior Pale Ale kit from AHS, 7lbs pale LME, Crystal 20L steep, 1oz Warrior, 1oz Sterling. I haven't tasted this yet but I assume it's going to be quite different from the first due to the pointed Cascade distinction. It's also much darker (amber) than the first batch.
My last batch, #3, was a Killian's Red Lager clone also from AHS. Again, I'm sure this should taste quite a bit different than the previous two.
On to what I know about my tastes in beer to help frame this question:
I like:
Sam Adams Oktoberfest
Blue Moon Oktoberfest
Redhook ESB (which I've heard is nowhere near as bitter as a real ESB)
River Horse Lager (this is a limited Northeast distributed brew but in case you've had it)
Rock Bottom Peashooter
I very much didn't like:
Rock Bottom Brown Bear, Stout (apparently i don't like smoky notes)
Pyramid Hefe Weissen (I don't want to discount all wheats, but it just wasn't good)
Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale (I have 4 bottles in the fridge that will just rot there)
Flying Dog Porter
So, given all that info, can someone suggest a good batch #4 that would be different than what I've already got in the works but also inline with my tastes? I'd like to stick with Extract + steeped grains at this point.
Thanks so much for your guidance.

I got one for you- it's a Left Hand Brewery's Sawtooth Clone. It's an ESB (but it's not really that bitter, probably in line with Redhook!), but it drinks like an amber. Smooth and rich, with just the right amount of bitterness. Good balance of maltiness v. hops. No hoppy aftertaste. This is our new "house beer"- it's that good!
Left hand Sawtooth Ale
-Brewing Method: Extract
Yeast: 1098 British - WYeast
Batch Size: 5 Gallons
Grain Bill:
1lb 40L Crystal
1/2 lb Victory (toasted)
3lbs Pale Extract
3lbs Munich Extract
Hop Bill:
1.5 oz Fuggle (45 min boil)
1.5 oz Golding (15 min boil)
1 oz Golding (end of boil)
Mash Schedule:
Steep grains in water 15-20 minutes at about 120-180 degrees. ( I steeped at 158 degrees)
Remove and add malt extracts.
Bring to boil.
Total Boiling time 45 minutes. (I can't remember exactly, but I probably did a 60 minute boil, and hopping)
Add 1.5 oz of fuggle at beginning of boil
Add 1.5 oz Golding when 15 minutes left in boil
Add 1 oz Golding at the end of the boil.
Let cool to under 80 degrees and pitch yeast. Aerate well! Shake the snot out of the primary! Primary fermentation lasts about 3 days. Rack to secondary and ferment for another 2 - 3 weeks.
Other yeasts you could use:
Safale S-04 dry yeast or pretty much any British strain except 1187 and 1084. All of the following would work: 1968, 1028, 1099, WLP023, 1275 and 1335.
Or a Redhook ESB clone-
6 lbs Light LME
1 lb Light DME
1 lb Crystal 60L
1 oz Willamette (60 minutes)
1 oz Tettnanger (60 minutes)
1 oz Willamette (20 minutes)
1 oz Tettnanger (2 minutes)
Neutral yeast
Steep grains. Remove and add malt extracts. Bring to a boil. Add hops according to schedule. Pitch yeast when cooler than 80 degrees.
I haven't tried the Redhook clone yet, so I can't vouch for it. I'm going to be doing it in a couple of weeks. I don't like wheat beers, or any beers with "flavors" added. I do like almost all ambers and a few pale ales. So, maybe we have some similar tastes. Good luck!

Maternal IV Fluids Linked To Newborns' Weight Loss
A newborn baby's weight loss is often used to determine how well a baby is breastfeeding, and concern about a baby which loses too much weight may result in supplementing breastfeeding with formula. However, many women receive IV fluids during labor, and new research published in BMC's open access journal International Breastfeeding Journal shows that some of a newborn's initial weight loss may be due to the infant regulating its hydration and not related to a lack of breast milk.
A group of Canadian researchers looked at relationships among the IV fluids a mother received during labor (or prior to her caesarean section), neonatal output (measured by diaper weight), and newborn weight loss. They found that during the first 24 hours following birth there was a positive association both between the IV fluids given to mothers before birth and neonatal output, and between the neonatal output and newborn weight loss. At 60 hours post birth, the time of the average lowest weight, there was a positive relationship between maternal IV fluids and newborn weight loss.
"Nurses, midwives, lactation consultants, and doctors have long wondered why some babies lose substantially more weight than others even though all babies get small amounts to eat in the beginning," said principal investigator Prof Joy Noel-Weiss from the School of Nursing at the University of Ottawa's Faculty of Health Sciences. "It appears neonates exposed to increased fluids before birth might be born overhydrated, requiring the baby to regulate his or her fluid levels during the first 24 hours after birth."
Prof Noel-Weiss added, "We should reconsider the practice of using birth weight as the baseline when calculating newborn weight loss in the first few days following birth. For mothers and their breastfed babies, accurate assessment of weight loss is important. Although more research is needed, based on our findings, we would recommend using weight measured at 24 hours post birth as a baseline."
Alongside this article, the researchers have provided a standardized method for clinicians to collect and analyze data about newborn weight loss in their own maternity site, in the hope that this protocol will help them to make informed decisions when assessing newborn weight changes.

It is working again :) Puntuado con 5 de 5 estrellas
Ok, there's new version, which is working:
5 stars again from me :)
Old comment:
this is really good add-on, but version 4.9.11 doesn't work for me. I click on filename to download and nothing happens. I have windows xp sp3, newest firefox, only firebug and istockzoom plugins installed, so my FF is kinda clean.Version 4.9.10 works fine, but it keeps update to the newest version.
Please fix the bug with 4.9.11, and I come back here and give 5 stars, because before broken version it was really great add-on!
Thanks for the review update.

Grange puts on fundraiser auction
The Sallal Grange will host its second annual fundraiser, with a live auction with Bob Rivers, a silent auction, music by Retro Groove, food and drink door prizes and raffles. The event will be 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13, at the Grange Hall, 12912 432nd Ave. S.E., North Bend.
Tickets are limited. For advance tickets, visit Carmichael's in Snoqualmie, or the Nursery at Mount Si or Twede's Cafe in North Bend. Tickets are also available online at www.sallalgrange.org.
The Sallal Grange has been a part of the North Bend and Snoqualmie Valley communities since its inception in 1931.

They have funded scholarships for students and teachers, and raised $1,000 in a fundraiser for the local women's and children's shelter Mama's Hands House of Hope.
Aside from charitable work, the Sallal Grange tries to create community, with yearly swap meets and holiday bazaars, a popular community game night, contra dances and their locally famous "Grangestock," showcasing local talent.

The Good Person of Szechwan"The Good Person of Szechwan" is one of Bertolt Brecht's most popular plays. In this famous parable, long known in this country under the potentially misleading title of "The Good Woman of Sezuan, " the gods come to earth in search of a thoroughly good person. They encounter Shen Teh, a good-hearted but penniless prostitute who, to muster sufficient ruthlessness to survive in an evil world, must disguise herself as a man. |

Social Startups: TinyTorch Lights Up Facebook Pages with Relevant, Engaging Visual Content
You'd think that with 90 percent of businesses on Facebook, it would be as easy as posting a selfie on the site to get hold of good content. "The No. 1 pain point businesses have in maintaining their social presence on Facebook is finding the right content," says Kylie Lakevold, co-founder of TinyTorch, the newest player in the content discovery arena.
The platform ups the game by offering the scheduling and posting capabilities of Hootsuite combined with crowd-sourced visual content similar to Pinterest. Lakevold says businesses can login to TinyTorch to find and schedule a month's worth of industry-relevant and engaging visual content to post to their social pages in less time than it takes to brew a pot of coffee.
At one time, Lakevold and her co-founder, Jon Bradshaw, were taking care of more than 40 company Facebook pages at one time. "It was difficult to find enough unique content to satisfy the needs of all these different companies," Lakevold says. "We would spend hours searching Pinterest, Google images, and blogs looking for content and pictures to post. It was time-consuming to search all of the different sites, and there wasn't a central location to discover relevant content, organize all of our post ideas, and schedule content to post."
Anyone with more than one Facebook page to manage can relate to this. It's the challenge that lit Lakevold and Bradshaw's fires to build TinyTorch in 2013. "TinyTorch solves all of the struggles I have personally experienced in my past marketing and business-owner roles," she says. "I have managed more social media accounts than I can count, and every time the biggest frustration has been locating relevant content to share."
Aside from having a large library of content for businesses to choose from, TinyTorch is also a distribution channel for content creators. "We allow content marketers, businesses, and graphic designers to upload their content to industry-specific channels for other businesses to share," she says. "This helps us double down on the content that we can offer businesses and helps other social marketers distribute their content to targeted audiences."
Unlike competitors who only provide businesses with trending news content, TinyTorch recognizes that image-based content has the furthest reach on social networks.
"Photos get 53 percent more likes, 104 percent more comments, and 84 percent more click-throughs than a link or text-based update," says Lakevold, who has been working in the design and marketing industry for more than 10 years where she has worked with and developed several globally recognized brands. "Our content is designed to engage your social following, but we also give businesses photo editing tools and content ideas so that they can easily create their own custom visual content."
One of the platform's users signed up for the 14 days of free social content that TinyTorch offers and started sharing it on all of his social pages. "I've never had so much interaction with my posts," says Daniel Falabella, founder of Prefundia. "This content has received the most likes on Facebook and retweets on Twitter that I've ever had."
What began as a way to discover social content for Facebook pages will eventually gain ground in all major social networks, including Pinterest, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram. Future development also includes more advanced analytics tools; more sophisticated scheduling capabilities; and keyword-based, content posting automation. TinyTorch is also working on developing a mobile app for social content creation on the go.
"In semi-stealth mode, we easily acquired our first 1,000 user registrations, and over 500 businesses signed up to receive 14 days of free social content," Lakevold says. "Now we are focused on acquiring our next 1,000 content partnerships and letting more users into the app."
TinyTorch aims to be a one-stop-shop for all your social marketing needs. "There are so many social marketing tools out there, but none have satisfied all the needs of a social marketer," says Lakevold, who is also a TinyTorch hacker developing both the platform and content with other designers and developers.

Quote originally posted by
Mine: Treat all of your characters equally, whether protagonists or antagonists, or whether heroes, villains, or the little people. Treat your world realistically. Don't make one character's life living hell while you pretty much throw roses onto another character's path. In more general terms, giving a character too much luck will make them seem 'sue-ish', while never giving a character a break will seem like you're either bashing or picking on them. Both can cause a reader to lose patience with a story, especially if they happen to a main character.
View original post
You're on to something, especially in regards to preventing Sue-ish-ness, but I wouldn't go so far to say that you should treat your characters "equally." I would say "reasonably," instead. I think that when applied correctly, obvious disparity between the amount of luck that two characters have can create drama (the good kind!), but only if the author makes it an interesting part of the story instead of just an accidental artifact of Sue-ish characters. As an example, it often seems in
Harry Potter
that Ron has gotten the short end of the stick when compared to Harry (especially when it comes to money and popularity), but Rowling makes sure that it never goes overboard, and she makes the jealousy an important and interesting part of Ron's character.
And now for my own advice:
I've found
(and others have occasionally pointed out)
that I have a problem with telling as opposed to showing. For a long time I just didn't know what to do with the advice "show don't tell," but now I think I'm finally getting better at it.
(Maybe. Don't hold me to that.)
What I've found helps me in this regard is while proofreading to recall which passages are supposed to make more of an impact on the reader, and then look over them and try to picture just what kind of feelings and sensory impressions the reader will get from the
words alone
. If something seems dry or passes too quickly, embellish it. There's always a disconnect between the vivid scene in your mind and what the reader will get from the words, so try and put as much of what makes the vision in your head vivid into your language as possible.
Imagery is the key, and it doesn't just mean what things look like. Imagery is any kind of language that appeals to the senses, and that includes sound, smell, and touch.

New patient care model begins
SAMC launched its Care Coordination effort with the placement of eight RN's as coordinators. They are, from left, Peggy Givens, Pediatrics; Jerry Temples, Critical Care; Ramona Johnson, Oncology; Kelly Clayton, Cardiology; Jesse Meadows, Urology/Nephrology; Kathy Hester, Orthopedics; Dawn Merritt, Cardiovascular Services; and Adrian Galloway, Neurology/Neurosurgery. Care Coordinators will round on every patient every day and plan their care with the assistance of physicians, case workers, patients, family members, nursing, rehab services and others.
Coordination for patient care will be directed by these Care Coordinators who will facilitate SAMC patients getting the appropriate care at the appropriate time, every time.
SAMC's Care Coordination model involves every hospital department. Daily huddles with care teams and physicians on each floor will continually put patients and their families first in all the Medical Center does. This program involves much more than these eight nurses. Each SAMC employee will directly or indirectly play a role in the success of the Care Coordination program.
An interdisciplinary team spent months planning this new care model for SAMC, which is being adopted as best practice among some of the country's leading hospital systems.
SAMC sponsors NPF Senior Day
Members of the orthopedic services team representing the Geriatric Fracture program pass out information about services during Senior Day at the National Peanut Festival recently. Pictured, from left, are Ashley Nelson, emergency department tech; Jason Jackson, rehab services tech and Halena Anderson, department secretary.
Champions of Hope
The SAMC Foundation's 7th Annual Sandi McCool Champions of Hope at the ACOM campus attracted more than 1,600 participants, survivors, volunteers and supporters for a 5K, a fun run and other programs. The SAMC Foundation raised more than $118,000 to benefit breast cancer patients at our hospital. SAMC hospitalists Muhummad Alsayid, MD; Kristy Johnson, DO; and Vanktaraman Palabindala, MD, followed by Kim Atwell of Marketing (pink jacket), are shown at the start of the 5K road race.

It is long and seamless, as envisaged by its creator to spread the message of the need for united efforts towards world peace. The 34-metre chain has been made of a teakwood plank and does not have joints.
K.M. Rajendran, 34, from the small village of Vaipur in Mallappally taluk of Pathanamthitta district, has conceptualised and created what is said to be the world's longest wooden "peace" chain without joints.
The chain has 208 blocks, merged together in 12 years by this artisan.
Mr. Rajendran says 195 blocks represent 192 republics across the globe and the Vatican, Palestine, and Taiwan. The remaining 13 blocks stand for the burning issues facing the world.
Environmental issues arising out of global warming and man's sheer neglect towards environment figure as linking blocks in the chain.
Mr. Rajendran often turns a historian and philosopher while talking about the history and geographical importance of the nations.
A wooden block has been dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi and his practice of non-violence. This block is placed adjacent to the one dedicated to Switzerland.
A Thiruvalla-based committee has been exhibiting the chain in various parts of the country, spreading the message of world peace.
Johnson V. Idiculla, programme director of the exhibition committee, says the committee is planning to exhibit the chain in 195 countries in the months ahead.
He says an exhibition has been planned at the YMCA Hall in Delhi on September 20 and 21 and another one at the Acharya Vinoba Bhave auditorium at Sevagram in Maharashtra on September 26.

Coronation learns 'sobering lesson' from Abil wipe-out
Comment on this storyBloomberg
AFRICAN Bank Investments Limited's (Abil's) largest shareholder, Coronation Fund Managers, apologised to investors yesterday and said it had learned a "sobering lesson" after its stake in the failed lender was wiped out.
The Reserve Bank put Abil into curatorship on Sunday after the lender said last week that it needed capital of at least R8.5 billion to survive. Abil's shares were suspended on Monday after the central bank split the firm into a "good" bank and a "bad" book, and arranged for institutions to underwrite a R10bn capital increase.
Coronation held about 22 percent of Abil before the company released a trading update last Wednesday that precipitated a drop of more than 90 percent in its share price, according to data by Bloomberg. The fund manager said it then cut its holdings to less than 9 percent by Friday.
"Losses have been incurred, for which we apologise," Coronation said. "This has been a humbling experience for us. We do not like to make mistakes."
Still, Abil's meltdown would not have a significant impact on the performance of any of its funds, Coronation said, without disclosing how much it had lost in rand terms.
Abil's long-term deposit and senior unsecured debt rating was lowered to Caa2 from Ba1 by Moody's Investors Service on Tuesday, which cited "expected losses" for senior bondholders and wholesale depositors. Another downgrade may follow because of the risk of higher-than-anticipated losses.
"Equity holders, preference share holders and subordinated debt holders will lose all their capital," Coronation said.
Reserve Bank governor Gill Marcus said on Sunday that Abil's shareholders would "take the hit".
Coronation's shares, which had gained 24 percent this year before Abil's August 6 statement, fell 6 percent to R93 as the lender collapsed last week. The stock has recovered some of its losses, and gained 30c to close at R97 yesterday.
Stanlib, Abil's third-biggest shareholder before the collapse, said that money market investors' returns would be cut by as much as 0.17 percent. Stanlib had 1 percent equity exposure to Abil and held senior and subordinated debt, the fund manager said. The Public Investment Corporation, Abil's second-largest shareholder, has not disclosed losses.
Shareholders might not be completely wiped out, said Tom Winterboer, who was appointed caretaker of Abil. "We need to establish values and what goes into the good bank," he said.
Fifteen months before Abil's weekend rescue, David Stemerman told his fellow US hedge fund managers to bet against the South African lender.
Stemerman, the founder of $3bn (R32bn) Conatus Capital Management, told a New York hedge fund conference that Abil had become vulnerable after aggressively building up its unsecured consumer lending investments and becoming too reliant on financing from the bond market.

So, in that respect, cooperative consumerism has really taken off.
And of course, those feelings of the status competition that comes out of that drives the consumerism in our society.
How can we square this encouragement of increased consumerism with the need to use resources wisely?
We will thus promote a level of consumerism that satisfies our citizens, who will find it easier to make purchases in other Member States.
Nowadays, the focus has shifted towards ' selling' that value and towards promoting the kind of consumerism that fuels the contradictions inherent in capitalism.
Drugs, as well as pornography and other forms of consumerism which exploit the frailty of the weak, tend to fill the resulting spiritual void.

Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith to Lobby Congress for Music Education in Schools
Share the post "Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith to Lobby Congress for Music Education in Schools"
Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith is set to lobby Congress on the importance of music education
Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith is getting into politics, at least the lobbying side of political affairs. Smith has announced that he will be heading to Washington D.C. next month to unite with members of the National Association of Music Merchants to lobby Congress and make their voices heard on the subject of funding music education programs in public schools.
"I am a perfect example of someone who's been musically educated exclusively throughout grade school, middle school and high school by the public school system," Smith said in an official statement. "If there hadn't been a music program in my public schools, I would not be where I am today. Every kid — and I mean everyone — needs a chance to learn and grow with music."
Smith is slated to speak to NAMM delegates and guests at the U.S. Capitol on March 19. He will also take part in special meetings on Capitol Hill with members of Congress the following day.
In other Red Hot Chili Peppers news, the band recently released a new song, "In Love Dying," off their "I'm With You" sessions.

Structuring the Initial Offering: Who to Sell to and How to Do itVojislav MaksimovicUniversity of Maryland - Robert H. Smith School of Business Pegaret PichlerNortheastern University, D'Amore-McKim School of Business, Finance Area March 2004 Abstract: This paper shows how the owner of a nonpublic firm, who wishes to maximize revenue from the sale of shares, should structure the sale. We develop a unified model of adverse selection in the retail market and mechanism design for information gathering that enables us to determine the optimal amount of information gathering before setting the issue price. We show that the need to induce truthtelling does not, without allocation restrictions, lead to underpricing when bookbuilding is conducted prior to an initial public offering. We obtain a number of new empirical predictions relating the information gathering decision and underpricing to characteristics of the bookbuilding process and issue characteristics such as issue size and uncertainty about share value.

For today's entry I am going to quote fellow dreamer and rainbow enthusiast Kermit the Frog:
"Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,
and rainbows have nothing to hide.
So we've been told and some choose to believe it.
I know they're wrong, wait and see.
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me."

Every industry goes through a learning curve and that leaves many players with no choice but to shut down their services whereas the ones who were proactive thrive even in the most adverse conditions. This is particularly true right now for the online industry. All the sites are now faced with the decision to either change the technology that they have been relying on for past many years or move on to the next level of technology which is expected from them by the search engines. I believe anybody can answer this question on behalf of all the sites.
Change is no doubt difficult but in this case it only begets good. So, choosing to go with c class hosting is a profitable decision in the favour of the site. If you still haven't looked into all the providers that are offering these services, then I suggest you do this at the earliest. Another reason that this is a profitable decision is linked to the factor that these services are affordable. Btu before you affiliate to any one service provider, gather a lot of information so as to make an informed decision. Take some time to define and implement the best strategy for your site.

Sure, you could use a piece of bread in your brown sugar to keep it soft, but why when this adorable sugar saver can do it for you. Just soak well for 20 minutes, dry him off & place him in your well sealed container. Really works!!!

As it turned out, his world would soon be shattered further. When days passed with no suspect emerging, police turned their focus to Neulander. And within weeks—after revelations emerged about an unseemly secret life the rabbi had hidden from his 900-family congregation—he stepped down from the pulpit he had held for 21 years. Not long before Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, police arrested the rabbi and charged him with conspiring to murder his 52-year-old wife. "I can't describe the level of shock when something like this happens," Rabbi Richard Address, a member of Neulander's synagogue, says of the slaying. "It upsets the balance of the community."
Though violent crimes are rare in leafy Cherry Hill, police first assumed Carol Neulander's murder was a robbery gone awry. She ran a successful bakery, often carrying large sums of cash, and her purse and its contents—though nothing else—were missing from the crime scene. What turned investigators' suspicions toward her husband was a mysterious incident that had taken place shortly before her death. That evening, Carol Neulander had just returned home from her bakery and was on the phone with her daughter Rebecca when a deliveryman rang the bell. "Oh, this must be the man with the package Daddy said would be coming," she told Rebecca. But the man asked to use the bathroom, then left, leaving an envelope that turned out to be empty.
Exactly two weeks later, around 8:15 p.m., Carol was again on the phone with Rebecca when there was a knock at the door. "Oh, it's the bathroom man," she said, telling her daughter she would call right back. She never did. Rabbi Neulander, who had been at the synagogue, returned home to find the door unlocked and his wife's lifeless body.
The investigation was only weeks old when Cherry Hill police, surveying the rabbi's telephone records, noticed numerous calls to Philadelphia radio personality Elaine Soncini. After repeated questioning, she admitted that she and Neulander had been carrying on an affair for two years. Later, police identified another woman they say had an affair with Neulander. In February 1995, he resigned from his congregation, expressing regret in a statement for "behavior that brings no honor to me."
The resignation marked the end of a lifelong dream for Neulander, who had grown up in Albany, N.Y., and then New York City, the only child of a homemaker mother and a dry-cleaner father who was himself descended from a long line of rabbis. In his senior year at Hartford, Conn.'s Trinity College, where he studied religion and philosophy, he met Carol Lidz, one of four children of an affluent Long Island button manufacturer.
Married in 1965 while Neulander was studying to become a rabbi in Judaism's liberal Reform movement, the couple moved three years later to the growing Philadelphia suburb of Cherry Hill, where he found work as assistant rabbi at a large temple. The couple raised three children: Rebecca, now 28, a hospital administrator; Matthew, 25, a medical student; and Ben, 22, who recently graduated from college. But by the mid-'70s, Neulander grew restless and started his own small congregation—M'kor Shalom, Hebrew for "source of peace"—offering a less formal style of religion. "The community needed a sense of tradition but not so intimidating that people wouldn't feel comfortable," he told PEOPLE last year.
Neulander quickly attracted a wide following. "He was always a leader," says a synagogue member. "He had this awesome, quiet power." Few congregants, however, knew how he had come to use it. When Elaine Soncini's husband was dying of leukemia in 1992, a friend suggested that she call Neulander. He showed up at the hospital hours before her husband's death. Soncini, now 51, recalls being scared and angry: "I said, 'I want a message [from God].' And [Neulander] said, 'Maybe I'm the messenger.' " After officiating at the funeral, Neulander repeatedly called to check on Soncini, then asked her to lunch. Just weeks after her husband's death, she says, they began an affair.
To those who knew him, Neulander hardly seemed the type. "It was a tremendous shock," says Carol's brother Edward Lidz. "This was a very close family." When he would walk among the congregation during services, Neulander would often stop to kiss his wife or publicly compliment her. "If he was living a lie," says one congregant, "he was certainly doing his best to hide it."
Soncini told police she saw the rabbi almost every afternoon but that shortly before the murder she had told him she planned to break off the affair and find a man who wasn't married. "Trust me," she told police he responded. "Something will happen by the end of the year."
The rabbi's regular racquetball partner, Myron Levin, 72, who has a criminal record, says Neulander was more specific with him. Levin reportedly told a grand jury that just weeks before Carol's slaying, Neulander had told him, "I wish I would come home one day and find my wife dead on the floor," then asked if Levin could arrange to have her killed. Neulander, whose attorney denies he made such a statement or request, has repeatedly maintained he had nothing to do with the murder. "The thought of killing my wife is both inconceivable and repulsive," he said at a 1995 press conference.
Though Neulander's presence at the temple the night of the murder gave him a solid alibi—and a November 1997 grand jury failed to indict him—police continued to suspect he was behind his wife's death and painstakingly pursued an investigation. Finally, on Sept. 10, they arrested him.
"The evidence is both compelling and overwhelming," says Camden County prosecutor Lee Solomon, though he refused to be specific. "I'm not trying to be evasive," he says. "We are limited as to what we are permitted to say about a case pretrial." Lawyers for Neulander hope to learn more by means of two recently filed motions—one requesting that the prosecution show probable cause, the other calling for an early indictment so the state will be forced to lay out its case.
Neulander is free on $400,000 bail awaiting an Oct. 23 hearing on defense motions, and, according to his attorney Jeffrey Zucker, his children are standing by him. Other relatives, though, appear to be reserving judgment. "This is like a raw edge that never goes away. It demands closure," says Ed Lidz of Neulander's arrest. "If he's guilty, then justice needs to be served."

It's Time to Check Out Imagine Dragons' Top 10 Songs
Imagine Dragons Bio
The success of Imagine Dragons of late has been nothing short of exponential. While they draw comparisons to indie darlings Matt & Kim and The Lumineers, their hooky, anthem-friendly alt-rock sound should not be entirely unfamiliar to fans of mainstream standbys like OneRepublic and Goo Goo Dolls, and previous flavors of the week The Fray and Snow Patrol.
Click here for Imagine Dragons Top 10 Chart, Video for "Radioactive"
Indie fans may bristle, but the short of it is that Imagine Dragons has an incredibly marketable sound that has easily contributed to how familiar their name is getting. The Vegas-based band formed in 2008, and after a couple line-up changes and early EP's, they signed on with Interscope in late 2011. Their single "It's Time" hit #15 on the Billboard Hot 100, holds a record for the longest run on the 2012 Alternative Top 10 Charts, and has since gone double platinum (RIAA) and gold (ARIA). Their first full studio album Night Visions, released in September of 2012, has only confirmed that they are not one hit wonders. The album peaked at #2 on the Billboard 200, and their second single "Radioactive" has been #1 on a slew of charts and in a number of international markets. Both Billboard and Amazon.com have credited them as one of the top rock acts of the year.
Imagine Dragons is currently in the midst of a jam-packed touring season, and are slated to appear at a number of summer festivals, including Hangout, Sasquatch! and Lollapalooza. Essentially, if you haven't heard of them yet, it's only a matter of time before you're hearing them everywhere.
Imagine Dragons Top 10 Chart
In a short period of time, the band has amassed a greatest hits collection of the best Imagine Dragons songs ever. Chances are, you've already heard some of the below tracks on the radio or on MTV (or whichever MTV channel is still playing music videos).

On the opening night of their On The Run tour in Miami, Beyonc� and Jay Z played candid footage of their 2008 nuptials, which at the time were top, top secret, as well as shots of a newborn Blue Ivy being cradled in her mum's arms.
The tour kicked off with a 42-song set, including some of the couple's best collaborations (think Crazy In Love, 03 Bonnie and Clyde, Drunk In Love etc etc).
