Lindsay Lohan Dropped From Movie
The reason: Sources close to the project, which stars Woody Harrelson, Giovanni Ribisi, Dave Matthews and Alanis Morissette, claim that people financing the film deemed her not "bankable."
Director David Michaels had only this to say: "Our team simply chose to move on from Lindsay and we'll soon be announcing a replacement," he told TMZ.
Lohan was cast in the film May, 2009, and was to play a grad student who spends the summer working at a scientific institute on a remote island. Her last major film role was the 2007 bomb 'I Know Who Killed Me,' for which she received three Razzies.
The news caps off a rough week for the troubled starlet, who on Monday was accused of owing over $600,000 in credit card debt. A few days later, she was listed as a suspect in the theft of a $35,000 Rolex watch, which someone had left at her home earlier this year. Then on Thursday, Lohan's father, Michael, reportedly tried to stage an intervention at her apartment.
"When will it ever end ... it's been going on my whole life with him -- hasn't he caused enough pain?," Lohan later said on her Twitter.

when i think of the loans (yes loans) i think of bankers the loan there stardom to hollywood and take there fame and enable it to fly away like a birdie now I'm not saying she is right lord knows she does this to her self but she is her own banker and friends she just went bust.
- Saturday 24 AprilBy bstill
The article misquotes the reason for Lindsay's father showing up at her apartment. He wasn't there to do an intervention, only to check up on Lindsay's younger sister and his daughter who happens to be living with Lindsay.
Get your facts straight and quit spreading your agenda!
As for getting dropped from the movie, I agree, Lindsay is not bankable!

if i were as big a 'train wreck' as she is, i'd never be surprised to learn that no one wanted to work with me. she needs to wake up before we have to "dig a hole" for her.

Lindsay has no idea what reality is at this point! She's too emotionally unavailable to put down the drugs and booze a.k.a. running to get to the truth. It's just too emotionally painful for her to deal with. That's what I see.
- Saturday 24 AprilBy larrendell
Maybe Ms. Lohan needs an intervention. She clearly has problems and I'm sure drugs and alcohol are her self-medications. It, however, needs to be done by someone other than her father. He has about as much "cred" as a death row inmate...maybe not as much!

Hey Lohan sounds like Breach of Contract to me.
- Sunday 25 AprilBy cjlanders3
Ok, I will be politically incorrect here. How do you expect a man to find her sexy and believable in any heterosexual role? She is not bankable unless she is playing a lesbian. There, I said it.

this chick is not all that. She was an okay actress who thinks too highly of herself. Get a real job Linsey and leave the e-trade baby alone.

Yeah she dropped from movie....she can't make a decision. Same thing goes to her hair from blonde to black to red hair, she is undecided on anything. Her mother don't have great influence on her. She's loose.

I think Lindsay is cute and should be used more...but the media has a lot to do with image...and the Media loves to destroy people...hopefully Lindsey can just be strong and go with the flow...wait for good parts

I find it mortifying that Dina is allowing her minor daughter to live with a druggie and boozer. Dina needs to lose custody of the minor children immediately as it is quite obvious she is in denial like her daughter Lindsey..

If all who see Lindsay Lohan would stop reporting everything she is doing and stop taking pictures of her-then she might straighten up when there is NO more attention givin to her. All they have to do is turn around the other way and not look at her.
- Monday 26 April
Ugh... Can we get over this already?? She hasn't signed up for help and you can only help yourself.. And, there is nothing like being signed up for help by her drug abusing dad!!! She is going to end up like Casey Johnson, and they will find her dead in her home. It's really sad, but all of this publicity is only going to make it worse... Take her out of the limelight for a moment, and then she will be entering rehab because that's the only publicity she can attract.. Aren't there other more pressing issues going on in the world besides, "what Lindsey stole, and what a drug abuser she is, how she needs rehab??"
- Thursday 29 AprilBy eajk
She doesn't want to get her life together. She enjoys being a drug addict tramp that can't be allowed on the set or a photoshoot or a club or a party without stealing something. She could care less about her career as a REAL actress, which is good because she doesn't have one. Seems to me the only thing she cares about is getting provacative photos taken of herself for no apparent reason other than to say "look at me, I am so hot im my pretty pictures....now lets go out and get some blow"
- Saturday 01 MayBy amlngn
Lindsey is not bankable because she is dark, depressed and a mess. Nobody is entertained by her, they are depressed by her. Who wans to pay to see this pathetic selfish brat. She looks awful and always has that cross look, like she is deep in thought about what? She forgot. She is going to end up behind bars if she doesnt watch it. And, she can have Perez. These are the most disgusting toxic people in the world.

Post-game NotesWisconsin 63, Ohio State 60Value City Arena - Columbus, OhioTEAM NOTES No. 16 Wisconsin improved to 21-8 overall and 10-6 in Big Ten play. With the win, Wisconsin guaranteed a winning conference record for the 12th-consecutive season. The Badgers have now won at least 10 Big Ten games in 10 out of 11 seasons under Bo Ryan. UW moved to 9-4 away from the Kohl Center this season and 7-4 in true road games. The Badgers are also 6-3 on the road in Big Ten play. The Badgers have recorded their highest number of Big Ten road wins (6) since winning 7 conference games away from home in 2007-08. Wisconsin posted its first Big Ten road win over a top-10 opponent since knocking off then-No. 4 Ohio State, 72-71, on Jan. 26, 1980 (snapping a streak a 40 consecutive road losses to top-10 Big Ten opponents). Bo Ryan was an assistant coach on that 1980 team. Wisconsin recorded its first win at Ohio State since 2008. Bo Ryan-led teams are now 5-4 at Value City Arena. Bo Ryan is now 263-99 (.727) at Wisconsin, including a mark of 130-54 (.707) in the Big Ten. Wisconsin turned the ball over just 7 times, the 15th time UW has had fewer than 10 giveaways in a game this season. Those seven turnovers are also the second-fewest in a game against Buckeyes this season (Purdue had 4 on Feb. 7). Wisconsin held Ohio State to 60 points, just the 4th time the Buckeyes have been limited to 60 or fewer points. The Badgers limited Ohio State to 58 points in the first meeting (Feb. 4). UW went 9-for-11 (81.8%) at the free throw line. The Badgers have shot 80% or better at the line in 5 of their last 6 games. The Badgers shot 41.8% (23-55) from the field, improving to 16-2 on the year when shooting 40% or better. The Wisconsin bench out-scored Ohio State's bench by a 9-1 margin. The game featured 9 ties and 22 lead changes.INDIVIDUAL NOTES Senior Jordan Taylor led Wisconsin with 19 points, while adding 5 rebounds and 4 assists. With 19 points, Taylor is now 10th on UW's all-time scoring list with 1,418 career points, passing Cory Blackwell (1,405) and Clarence Sherrod (1,408). He sits just 7 points shy of Devin Harris (1,425) for 9th place. Junior Jared Berggren posted 18 points, equaling the second-highest scoring game of his career. He also posted 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block and 1 steal. Berggren now has 50 blocks on the season, just the third Badger to ever accomplish that feat, joining Brad Sellers (1982 and 1983) and Rashard Griffith (1994 and 1995), who each did it twice. Junior Ryan Evans tallied his second-career double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds. He also contributed 3 assists and 1 block in 37 minutes. Evans has now scored in double figures in 8 straight games and has tallied at least 10 rebounds four times on the season. Senior Rob Wilson came off the bench to score 9 points, hitting a career-high three 3-pointers (3-for-6) to go with 1 rebound and 2 assists in a season-high 21 minutes.

Does a tool need to be cool
Is Computer Science fading to Computer Fashion
The debate returns on whether or not Java is cool or not. In
today's Weblogs,
Brett McLaughlin complains that "there's just something sort of
boring about the Java space right now. Don't get me wrong--it's
still my language of choice. It's still what I go for when I need
something done, and I still have something like 3 or 4 Java books
for every one of my other programming language books. But... it's
not sexy anymore. It's like that hot girl in high school you knew,
and then ran into the other day at Kroger, and
thought... "Wow. What happened? I mean, she's still good-looking,
but not like I remember!" Probably a sort of poor analogy, but
it's the best one I've got."
The talkback already includes retorts that your programming
language doesn't need to be cool, that 1.5 is more exciting than 1.4
was, and the question " Could it be that people concerned with
"coolness" as a programming tool attribute merely have short attention
spans?" Brett ends his post with "Java a fad? Nope. But it sort of
feels like it right now. And--really--who wants to be the last kid on
the block still playing hula hoop?"

COVINGTON — One man has been arrested and the investigation is continuing into the alleged arson that resulted in a fire Tuesday morning at 3126 Gaither St., according to Assistant Fire Marshal Capt. Tony Smith of the Covington Fire Department.
Richard Douglas Norton, 31, of the Gaither Street address, faces charges of first-degree arson, criminal damage to property, insurance fraud and obstruction of law enforcement officers.
Smith said neither Norton nor his roommate were at home at the time the blaze broke out. It was discovered about 3 a.m. when a passing Covington Police Department officer spotted it and alerted authorities.
"He (Norton) deliberately set the house on fire," Smith said, adding that investigators were not prepared to release the actual cause of the fire at this time. "The investigation is continuing."
Smith said there were several factors that led fire investigators to conclude that the fire was the result of arson.
"The investigation of the scene itself gave us some indications, but also our initial conversation with both tenants was suspicious," Smith said. "As we looked a little deeper into the two of them and after talking with neighbors and friends and verifying their stories … last night he finally confessed."
Smith said the two men had lived at the house for only 22 days, having moved there from the house next door.
"They were actually in the process of leaving this house (the one that burned) and moving towards the Athens area," Smith said.

I took it back the meat guy said it was definitel had abnormalities. I was refunded my money. Store name is Winn Dixie.

Lessons from the Most Interesting Summer Jobs at Bateman Group – Part 3
When we initially launched the Bateman Summer Jobs Series during the summer of 2011, it was supposed to be a three-part series. Well, we never got to that third part until now. With the influx of new talent at Bateman Group, it's a good of time as any to revisit this series (see part 1 and part 2).
For those who aren't familiar with the series, we thought it'd be interesting to look at past summer jobs and examine how those summer jobs and the corresponding lessons learned apply to our role as PR professionals today.
Katrina Dene
Job: Ice Cream and Candy Sales Associate
Lesson Learned: Manage expectations
My first job ever was as a sales associate at a local ice cream and candy shop. It was a fabulous first job; taste testing new candies and ice cream flavors was obviously my favorite part. I also built some impressive arm strength that summer. While working there, I became familiar with one customer in particular who came into the shop on a very regular basis requesting hand-packed pints of banana ice cream. Packing pints was really an acquired skill, and she always wanted a couple so she wouldn't have to come back so often. One day, the new tub of banana ice cream hadn't been set out the night before so it was rock hard, frozen solid. Of course this was the day the Banana Lady, as we liked to call her, came in for her hand-packed pints. After explaining to her our predicament, it became clear that this was our job to do whatever it takes to get that banana ice cream into those pints for her. We then shaved ice cream bit by bit, and the Banana Lady left with her weekly supply of banana ice cream.
Lesson learned? Everyone expects a service if they are willing to pay the price, but sometimes the pain is not worth the gain on both ends. Before saying no, it's always good to consider what you're asking your customer to give up by doing so. Just as it was physically difficult for us to accomplish the task at hand, it was also inconvenient for her to wait around longer than expected or come back later. It is important to communicate obstacles that may stand in your way as a service provider. This helps manage customer/client expectations. While refusing to scoop/shave that ice cream may have been the easy way out, she left happier and more appreciative than she ever had before.
Elissa Davis
Job: Lifeguard
Lesson Learned: Be proactive and prepared, rather than reactive
In high school and through my freshman summer of college, I was a lifeguard for the local public pool. To date, this was one of the best jobs I've ever had (besides working at Bateman of course!). It wasn't just sitting poolside and getting paid to get tan – it was everything that I learned about the real world from this one little pool. Everything from how to work with a diverse group of people to customer service skills to a hyperawareness of your surroundings to CPR and first aid.
The most significant thing I took away from all my summers was the importance of responsibility, being proactive and being prepared. While we were trained to handle emergencies, we worked hard to ensure that we didn't have to use that training. There is a reason lifeguards tell you not to run on the deck or dive head first into shallow water. They aren't trying to stop you from having fun – they are preventing you from needing a trip to the hospital. This is a lesson that I've applied to many areas of my life and career. It's great and sometimes necessary to have an arsenal of crisis skills, but when you put the right preventative care (proactive care when looking at PR) in place, you should never have to use them.
Leah Conklin
Account Coordinator
Job: Follies Girl
Lesson Learned: Hard work leads to confidence
From the ages of 12-15, I spent my summers playing Disney princesses and other fairytale characters at the Pocono Playhouse Children's Theater. The summer before I turned 14, I was recruited to dance in the ensemble of one of the professional or "Main Stage" productions called "The Will Rogers Follies." Let's be real here – this was definitely not Broadway, but it was incredibly intimidating. I was 13 years old dancing side-by-side with a cast of 20- to 30-somethings in my first paid gig.
Because Summer Stock Theater runs on a compressed schedule, a show that is usually rehearsed over the course of one to three months was jammed into one week of 8-10 hour rehearsals. Though I was obviously lacking experience I refused to be dismissed because of my age. While the cast took smoke breaks, I sought out the least-frightening non-smoker to review choreography with me. I asked questions even though my voice shook every time I opened my mouth. For one week, I ate, slept and breathed that show. When it came time for performance week, I knew every step, every costume change and every word to every song. No one in the audience would have been able to tell I was so young…if it weren't for my braces.
In the end I walked away with $150 check for a week of eight performances and my first dancing job under my belt. Obviously, this was not my big break, and I have since changed career paths. This experience really instilled the fact that hard work directly leads to confidence and improved performance.
Liam Hausmann
Account Coordinator
Job: Bag Boy/Courtesy Clerk
Lesson Learned: It isn't always the glorious part of the job that gets you ahead
The day I turned sixteen (legal working age in Washington), my dad called his friend who managed the local grocery store, and the next day I had the honor of being named Quality Food Center's newest bag boy. My object-sorting geometric savvy was honed in the days of my youth playing Game Boy Tetris on the bus ride to school, and served well in this noble occupation. I quickly garnered the moniker of "The Chosen One," dazzling customers and coworkers alike with my lightning-fast grocery bagging abilities. Not once was an egg crushed nor a loaf smooshed. My talents even took me to the Snohomish County Regional Bag-Off, where I was only beaten by a gangly 20-something dude named Todd who had superhuman speed and sorting skills. At the time, I was convinced that it was due to his ability to somehow maintain a high-school wrestling state champion level of acne despite presumedly having long since dropped out of community college (I'm not bitter).
But it was not my dexterity of hand nor Tetris-honed sorting instincts that made me the Golden Boy of the Mukilteo Boulevard Quality Food Center. It was my unshakable determination to do whatever was asked in my quest for promotion into the hallowed ranks of the produce department. Those who worked in the produce department cut vegetables and ate fresh Washington apples all day – how could I not strive to join them with every fiber of my being? This determination was truly tested when I was asked to clean out the meat department backroom garbage cans, which hadn't been given proper attention in over a year. Despite the otherworldly stench emanating from the pair of industrial-sized plastic vats of molding death, I overcame two bouts of vomit-inducing nausea (yes, I literally puked twice in an afternoon, at work, on a Tuesday afternoon in the August sun and continued the job) and went through two and a half large bottles of Drain-O. When I was done, the cans, which once could have been confused for those used by a haz-mat disposal team, could have been resold at Costco to an unfortunate suburban mom tasked with organizing her son's soccer tournament, and she would have been none the wiser. Surmounting this monumental task was, I suspect, a completely unnecessary assignment, likely just hazing by the produce department. But I got the promotion and was the youngest-ever produce team member. Was it worth it? Absolutely. I love 'dem Washington apples.

I love to embroider and had been wanting to work with wool for a long time, so the Basket Pincushion project in the January/February 2012 issue of Love of Quilting seemed like the perfect project for me...and it was!! I love the way it turned out! Plus, it is now the home roost for some special "bird" pins I just had to have. It was my first wool project but definitely not my last. Thanks for the inspiration!

Maybe that's why, for some inexplicable reason, I've been obsessed with creating a cozy bedroom spot lately. Wouldn't you love to cozy up in one of these? Sigh. xoxo

I LOVE hospital beds. I spent a lot of time in the hospital for surgeries in my late teen years a warm blanket was always the FIRST thing I asked for when I arrived. And I love having the adjustable back and feet. It makes it so easy to find the perfect relax position.

Just Laura-I am sorry to hear of this. As much as you probably want to tell your side of the story, I would say nothing to customers at this time, for several reasons. First, it is a personnel matter which should remain between you, Husband and Manager until the full story of what happened becomes public information. Also, you could risk jeopardizing the investigation and/or any resulting criminal or civil proceedings as well as possibly invite litigation from Manager. I certainly wouldn't post anything on the business's web site or any type of social media. If you feel compelled to say "something," I would simply state, "We parted ways," "It didn't work out," "He moved on," or something similarly truthful but nondescript. I wouldn't say anything beyond that without seeking advice from the legal counsel you have wisely retained. The actual, complete truth will come out in the end. In the meantime, if anyone presses for details that shouldn't be shared, then they are the ones being rude. I wish you the best.-Scarlett
Dear Just Laura,
Oh, what a shame–I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I was going to write you a long response, but then Scarlett said everything I would have. Thanks, Scarlett!
I would only add that the quiet approach is what most major corporations take. Not that we would want to copy everything they do, but they do know the value of arguing in court, not in public.
All the best with this unfortunate situation,
I completely agree with Scarlett's suggestions. For business-related issues concerning an employee's conduct, mum's the word to avoid any litigious retaliation from fired employee. Similarly, any heard or written comments by employee should be noted and sent to attorney, who can present a temporary "cease and desist" until issue is resolved. The fastest way to squelch the rumors and questions, is to start interviewing for a "superstar" manager who will earn your trust back in employees and do the work the former manager was hired to do, so husband not doing two jobs. It's hard to want to trust again, but businesses require many experts to join the team and good people can be found.

Dr. Bradley A. Patay's Ratings
I have been going to Dr. Patey for almost 10 years now. And while judging a doctor's overall skill set or knowledge can be challenging for a lay person, I can say this: he has always been very professional, answers any questions I have, does not make me feel rushed, and will not hesitate to refer me to a specialist if needed. Generally speaking, I can get in to see him on fairly short notice, and my appointments are within 15 minutes of when scheduled, though you can tell that there are a lot of people in the cue. This facility is very highly rated in San Diego by Consumer Reports and others, so personally speaking, I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Patey or the Scripps facility that he works out of.

He is confident yet wrong in many situations. His analysis of the data (blood tests, MRIs) is flawed by his faulty knowledge. Specifically he stated that if their are no visible lesions on an MRI than there is a 0% chance that one would have multiple sclerosis. On a separate occasion when he disagreed with my neurologist he refused to refer me to an endocrinologist (as requested by my neurologist). When confronted he essentially had a nervous breakdown, yelling, and then his secretary called me to say I had been referred, although at this point I want nothing to do with him or his associates. On several occasions I would later look-up 'knowledge' he would share with me regarding potential diagnoses, on many occasions his 'knowledge' was outright wrong.

The American Middle Class: Undermined, Underpaid and Underemployed
October 29, 2011
Fred Siegel
A QUESTION for historians in the not-too-distant future.
Forty years from now, politicians, writers and historians may struggle to understand how the US, once the quintessential middle-class society, became as socially stratified as Europe or even Brazil.
Should that dark scenario come to pass, they would do well to turn their attention first to New York City and New York State, which have been in the vanguard of middle-class decline.
It was in mid-1960s New York - under the leadership of a Barack Obama precursor, Hollywood-handsome mayor John Lindsay - that the countrys first top-bottom political coalition emerged. In 1965, Gotham had more manufacturing jobs than any other city in the country, but as the citys political elites expanded, social programs to help African-Americans and Puerto Ricans inflated the unionised public-sector workforce to incorporate minority workers; then taxes went up and up to pay for the spending, joining global competition and higher crime to produce a massive exodus of manufacturing and middle-class jobs.
In the past 45 years, New York has led the country in outmigration. A study by EJ McMahon and Robert Scardamalia of the Manhattan Institutes Empire Centre for New York State Policy notes that since 1960, New York has lost 7.3 million residents to the rest of the country. For the past 20 years, "New Yorks net population loss due to domestic migration has been the highest of any state as a percentage of population".
New York City has solidified its standing as the most unequal city in the US. Twenty-five per cent of New York was middle-class in 1970, according to a Brookings Institution study. By 2008, that figure had dropped to 16 per cent, and the numbers have only plunged further since the financial crisis, with virtually all the new jobs in the citys hourglass economy coming at either the high end or the low. Only high-end businesses can succeed in a local economy that has the nations highest taxes and highest cost of living - and even those businesses, in many cases, weathered the downturn only by living off the Feds policy of subsidising banks. Despite the federal largesse, more of the citys new jobs are in the low-wage hospitality and food-services industries than in the financial sector.
The middle class has lost its political voice in a city dominated by the politically wired wealthy and the public-sector unions that service the poor.
New York is the picture of what the Tea Party fears for the country at large. In the 1970s, liberal mandarins seized the high ground of US institutions in the name of managing social, racial, gender, and environmental justice on behalf of the disadvantaged. Their job, as they saw it, was to protect minorities from the depredations of middle-class mores. Then, in the wake of the Aquarian age, the US developed the first mass upper-middle class in the history of the world. These well-to-do, often politically connected professionals - including the increasingly intertwined wealthy of Wall Street, Hollywood, and Silicon Valley - espoused what might be called gentry liberalism, a creed according to which the middle classes had to be punished for their racism, sexism and excess consumption.
And they have been punished - with job losses. These losses are the inevitable result of the costs of an ever-expanding, European-style public sector; environmental restrictions on manufacturing, mining, and forestry, which push high-paying jobs offshore; and illegal immigration, which reduces overall wage levels.
At the same time, the decline in the quality of schools has undermined what was once a ladder of economic ascent. After completing high school today, students are likely to require a raft of remedial courses in college. Then, after college, many middle-class students graduate not with an education but with a credential - and obligations on enormous loans that paid for the intermittent attention of a highly paid, tenured faculty.
The private-sector middle classs plight has been exacerbated by international competition and technological innovation, which have undermined job security, including for unionised manufacturing workers, who had enjoyed an unprecedented prosperity for about a quarter-century.
Median household incomes have grown only marginally since the early 70s, despite the mass movement of women into the workplace. Many dual-earner families have been caught in the two-income tax trap: on the one hand, they pay for services once performed by the homemaker; on the other, notes economist Todd Zywicki, theyre pushed into a higher tax bracket when the wifes salary is added to the husbands.
Adding to the woes of the middle and lower classes is that their families are far less stable than they were a generation ago. The decline of marriage has been driven not only by changing mores but also by a decline in male employment. In 1970, only one of 14 working-age men was out of the workforce. Today, notes Fortunes Nina Easton, one in five is either "collecting unemployment, in prison, on disability, operating in the underground economy or getting by on the pay cheques of wives, girlfriends or parents". Today, four in 10 American babies are born out of wedlock.
During the current downturn, the black and Hispanic middle class has been particularly hard hit. From 2005 to 2009, according to a recent Pew survey, inflation-adjusted wealth fell by 66 per cent among Hispanic households and by 53 per cent among black households, compared with 16 per cent among white households.
These families worry, with good reason, that in the face of continuing high unemployment, they may fall out of the middle class. For the Obama administration and the public-sector unions, the solution to this slide is to force the nearly one in four employers that have contracts with the federal government to pay above-market wages.
Here again, New York has been a pacesetter. Recently, public-sector unions and their allies tried to force a developer rebuilding a decayed Bronx armoury to follow their wage and hiring guidelines; the deal collapsed, leaving one of the poorest sections of Gotham in the lurch.
Theres a major difference, though, between New York and the country as a whole. The New York option - move somewhere else - doesnt apply to private-sector, middle-class workers fighting adverse conditions that exist throughout the US. So theyve exercised the democratic right of political action, organising themselves to compete in elections.
The Tea Party is the national voice of the private-sector middle class - despite the demonisations heaped on it by public policy elites, whose own judgment and competence leave much to be desired.
The issue of middle-class decline should be front and centre next year, which is shaping up as a firestorm of an election. Its likely to be a bitter contest between the polarised class interests of those who identify with the growth of government, and those who are being undermined by its expansion. Liberals will blame Tea Party "terrorists" for the tragedy of a fading middle class. They will continue to delude themselves into thinking, as Al Gore said in 2000, that their rivals represent "the powerful" and that they themselves act on behalf of "the people"- even though Barack Obamas policies have poured money into Wall Street and the politically connected "green" businesses that form the upper half of his top-bottom electoral coalition.
The question is whether the country will buy this line and, more broadly, whether it will follow the New York model. Should it do so, those future historians will no doubt look at the election of 2012 as the contest in which the middle class staggered past the point of no return.

Young Hunters Get First Shot During Special Weekend
Houston County Courier - October 2009
AUSTIN - "Trick or Treat" won't be the only activity on the minds of Texas youth on Oct. 31.
While some will dress up as fairy princesses and ghosts for Halloween, many will be wearing bright orange and camouflage for the special youth-only hunting weekends.
Passing the hunting heritage on to the next generation of hunters is what the special youth-only seasons are all about, according to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.
TPWD has set aside Oct. 31-Nov. 1 as special youth-only seasons for white-tailed deer and Rio Grande turkey. Additional youth-only seasons have also been set aside in January.
During the statewide special youth-only hunting weekend, licensed youth 16 years of age or younger will be allowed to harvest white-tailed deer and Rio Grande turkey.
The department has coordinated with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to offer a youth-only waterfowl season in the North and South Duck Zones on Oct. 24-25 for licensed youth 15 years of age or younger.
A Special Youth Hunting License $7 is required and may be purchased wherever hunting licenses are sold, as well as online and by phone at (800) TX-LIC-4U for an additional convenience fee.
General season bag limits for the county hunted apply during the youth-only weekend, but some additional restrictions may apply in certain areas so be sure to check the Outdoor Annual before heading afield.
TPWD has made an extra effort to open as much public hunting land as possible to youth hunting on department-managed lands.
Youth who are hunting on TPWD lands must be accompanied by a supervising adult 18 years of age or older who possesses the required Annual Public Hunting permit, a valid hunting license and any required stamps and permits.
Youth hunts for either sex white-tailed deer are scheduled during the special weekend season on public hunting units, mostly in East Texas. Youth waterfowl hunts are available on many public hunting units.
The Annual Public Hunting (APH) Permit is a $48 permit, valid from Sept. 1 - Aug. 31 of the following year.
The APH permit allows an adult access to designated public hunting lands in the TPWD public hunting lands program.
With the APH permit, hunting is allowed for small game, turkey, white-tailed deer, exotics, predators, furbearers, and fishing without having to pay daily permit fees and in most instances, without having to be selected in a drawing.

I am installing Visual Studio 2010 on a vista 64 bits machine.
During the install it asked for a restart.
Since that, vista won't load. I tried restore to previous good configuration - didn't help.
I am only able to boot it using safe mode with networking. When I did that, it continued the vista part of the install (the screen with the 3 out of 3 updates) but after that when I restarted again - still fails.

Trying to contact project administrator
I have recently found a bug in a package in a project.
No one seems to be able to help on the forums.
I'v been going through the source code and my idea is to fix the bugs myself as all the packages are open source.
The problem I have is a lot of the information and objects I need to access are not public out side of the package. Worst case scenario is that I will stop using all of the original packages in favour of my own version of everything simply to eradicate a few bugs. Seems a hell of a lot of work in my mind...
maybe I could contact one of the administrators for the project so see what can be done? but there doesnt seem to be a link to send a message or contact them.
can anyone please offer some suggestions on how I can find a solution to my predicament.
Many Thanks

The discovery of insulin nearly a century ago changed diabetes from a death sentence to a chronic disease.
Today a team that includes researchers from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine announced a discovery that could lead to dramatic improvements in the lives of people managing diabetes.
After decades of speculation about exactly how insulin interacts with cells, the international group of scientists finally found a definitive answer: in an article published today in the journal Nature, the group describes how insulin binds to the cell to allow the cell to transform sugar into energyand also how the insulin itself changes shape as a result of this connection.
"These findings carry profound implications for diabetes patients," said Case Western Reserve biochemistry professor and department chair Michael A. Weiss, MD, PhD, MBA, one of the leaders of the team. "This new information increases exponentially the chances that we can develop better treatmentsin particular, oral medications instead of syringes, pens or pumps."
Weiss, also the Cowan-Blum Professor of Cancer Research at the School of Medicine, is renowned worldwide for his work on insulin. In 1991 he used nuclear magnetic resonance techniques to describe the structure of insulin; more recently he has developed a preliminary version of the hormone that does not need to be refrigerated, a critical breakthrough for those with diabetes in the developing world.
The results published today, however, represent among the most promising for Weiss and an entire generation of scientists devoted to enhancing care for those suffering from diabetes. They have sought to solve mystery of how the hormone bound to cells since 1969, when the late Dorothy Hodgkin and colleagues at the University of Oxford, first described insulin's structure.
"There's been a logjam in our understanding since then," Weiss said. "We hope that we've broken the logjam

Archive for the 'Michigan State Police' tag
Hemmings Find of the Day – 1992 Ford Mustang
It's always been rather simple to document a former police car, especially high-profile ones, such as the Special Service Package Mustangs, which is why you'll often see them restored or maintained exactly to duty condition, as this 1992 Ford Mustang with the Special Service Package has been. Its crime-fighting days may be over, but at least it still looks good in its dress blues. From the seller's description:
State Police Special Service Pkg; this historically accurate and unique retired (no longer in service) Michigan State Police Mustang was optioned as a special service package for usage as a high-performance law enforcement pursuit vehicle. Used only for traffic control purposes, this vehicle was not driven in winters or even in rainy conditions. This car has no rust, and has not had any accidents.
The Mustangs were engineered for quality, performance and reliability. Only 20 were made for the MSP in 1992. The vehicles were fast for the time, and these good-looking blue beauties are a rare find.
This remarkable vehicle has 63,000 original miles, and the car has the original matching buck tags in place. The car is in exceptional, excellent shape and in proper working condition. This MI State Police car is authentic in every detail, including the correct badging and the police equipment that was used during that period (excluding police computers). This Mustang has been carefully reconditioned. This Mustang motor features a 225 HP 5.0L (302cid) HO V8 engine with sequential multi-port electronic fuel injection. The high-performance engine is teamed with a 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission, 273 axle ratio, torque 300 ft lbs, fuel economy 18/25 (mpg), a/c, rear defrost, p locks, pw, p mirrors, scores of standard features and of course the Special Service Pkg.
See more Mustangs for sale on Hemmings.com.

Motorcycle guys are more than willing to defend the merits of their specific brands, but it's not often that you get fair, unbiased testing conducted by
a state agency that actually lays out money for the vehicles. The Michigan State Police recently made such testing public, as it embarked upon an evaluation program for its upcoming purchase of a fleet of motorcycles.
The Harley Davidson Road King and FLHTP were evaluated against the BMW R1200RT-P. All three bikes are the most commonly used police machines in the country. Michigan State Police evaluated the motorcycles' performance in
handling, braking, acceleration and top speed, as well as the ability to
cope with all the special communications and emergency warning needs of the Michigan State Police. Tests were conducted at the DaimlerChrysler Proving Grounds in Chelsea, Michigan.
The results of the testing were dramatic. The BMW was able to negotiate the nine-turn, six-lap handling course as much as 32 seconds faster than the FLHTP Electra Glide. Acceleration and top speed tests also went to the BMW,
which achieved a top speed of 130 mph, vs. Harley Davidson's 103 and 107 top speeds. In the quarter mile, the BMW accelerated at least a second and a
half faster than the Harley, at a speed 8-mph faster. From 60 miles per hour, the BMW stopped an amazing 21 feet sooner than either of the
Harley Davidsons, or approximately a car-length and a half.
Full results of the test are available on the state of Michgan's Web site.

Pancakes Pay for Playground Fix-Ups
Omaha, NE - For the price of a short stack, families are helping rebuild Omaha playgrounds.
The Omaha Parks Foundation is raising money to make improvements at fifteen playgrounds in Omaha city parks. "This makes our community a great community," said Parks Foundation President Amber Miller. "By having a great parks system, and that's what we're after, I'm sure when these fifteen parks are completed, there will be fifteen more that will be on the best and worst list."
The parks are in all four corners of the city: Kingswood, TaHaZouka in Elkhorn, Elmwood, Standing Bear Lake, Zorinsky, Spring Lake, Benson, Park East, Albright, Grace Young, Schroder/Vogel, Cunningham Lake, Bemis, Hanscom and Yale parks. Some parks need new equipment, others need to be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
The city of Omaha will match donations up to $50,000, the foundation will also look for corporate donors.
Longhorn Steakhouse donated the food and the staff for Saturday's pancake breakfast.

The latest defect notices filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration include older Isuzu models with undercarriage rust problems, BMWs with faulty power steering and Zero electric motorcycles with brake lights that don't work reliably.
Isuzu is recalling certain Amigo vehicles from the 1998 to 2000 model years and Rodeo Sport models from 2001 and 2002 because of possible damage to their rear suspensions from corrosion.
The Isuzu VehiCross is a rare sight, in part because relatively few were made and far fewer found their way to the U.S. in a run of just three model years. They also had a sticker price of about $29,000 in 1999, which was a lot of money back then, especially for an Isuzu. How many American car shoppers even knew what an Isuzu was?
Today, though, they still look pretty fresh. Every time I see one I wonder how long it will take for a collector's market to form around them. They face a number of disadvantages, from not being old enough yet to be considered classics to coming from a fairly obscure maker. The market for collectible SUVs has also traditionally lagged behind that of old cars.
A reader recently asked which new SUVs were most similar to the two-door 1998 Toyota RAV4 he had been driving for years. He loved the old RAV mainly for its small size, which made it easy to park and fun to drive, but needed to replace it. The closest thing I could recommend was the Jeep Wrangler, which is about the only SUV on the market designed with pure fun in mind.
Back in the mid 1990s when Toyota rolled out the RAV4, SUVs still a departure from everyday cars. They had tall, boxy bodies, more rugged underpinnings (sometimes) and four-wheel drive. And there were several small two-door models available with whimsical designs that tested our ability to categorize them.
General Motors says it is recalling regular-cab and extended-cab Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon mid-size pickup trucks, and certain Isuzu i280 an i370 pickups to fix a problem with their child-restraint equipment. The car maker says the recall includes 192,676 vehicles.
The affected Chevrolet and GMC models are from the 2004 to 2011 model years and the Isuzus, which are rebadged versions of the same truck, are 2007-2008 models with bench seats that have a 60/40 split. The problem is that the top tether anchor for the center-front seat position isn't accessible as required under U.S. and Canadian safety standards.

Kerry Committee report
The Kerry Committee report was the result of hearings of the United States Senate Subcommittee on Terrorism, Narcotics, and International Operations chaired by Senator John Kerry. The report found the United States Department of State had paid drug traffickers. Some of these payments were after the traffickers had been indicted by federal law enforcement agencies on drug charges or while traffickers were under active investigation by these same agencies. The Kerry investigation lasted two and a half years and heard scores of witnesses; its report was released on April 13, 1989.[1] The final report was 400 pages, with an additional 600-page appendix. The committee stated
It is clear that individuals who provided support for the Contras were involved in drug trafficking...and elements of the Contras themselves knowingly received financial and material assistance from drug traffickers.[2]
Press accounts concerning links between the Contras and drug traffickers, which began with a December 1985 story by the Associated Press, led to a review by the United States Department of State, U.S. Department of Justice and relevant U.S. intelligence agencies in 1986.[3]
In April 1986, the State Department informed Congress that it had "evidence of a limited number of incidents in which known drug traffickers tried to establish connections with Nicaraguan resistance groups."[3]
Hearings begin[edit]
In April 1986, John Kerry and Senator Christopher Dodd, a Democrat from Connecticut, proposed that hearings be conducted by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee regarding charges of Contra involvement in cocaine and marijuana trafficking. Senator Richard Lugar of Indiana, the Republican chairman of the committee, agreed to conduct the hearings.
Kerry's findings[edit]
Meanwhile, Kerry's staff began their own investigations, and on October 14, 1986 issued a report which exposed illegal activities on the part of Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North, who had set up a private network involving the National Security Council and the CIA to deliver military equipment to right-wing Nicaraguan rebels (Contras). In effect, North and certain members of the President's administration were accused by Kerry's report of illegally funding and supplying armed militants without the authorization of Congress.[4]
Kerry's staff investigation, based on a yearlong inquiry and interviews with 50 unnamed sources, was said to raise "serious questions about whether the United States has abided by the law in its handling of the contras over the past three years."[5]
The Kerry Committee report found that "the Contra drug links included...payments to drug traffickers by the U.S. State Department of funds authorized by the Congress for humanitarian assistance to the Contras, in some cases after the traffickers had been indicted by federal law enforcement agencies on drug charges, in others while traffickers were under active investigation by these same agencies."[3] The US State Department paid over $806,000 to known drug traffickers to carry humanitarian assistance to the Contras.[2]
On May 4, 1989, North was convicted of charges relating to the Iran/Contra controversy, including three felonies. On September 16, 1991, however, North's convictions were overturned on appeal because North's testimony before Congress under immunity may have affected testimony in the trial.[6]
Almost a decade later, the CIA inspector general would release a study confirming the conclusions of the Kerry Committee report.[7]

WHARTON COLLEGE. Wharton College, organized in Austin in 1858 as Marianne Wharton College, was named by Charles Gillette for his wife. It received a charter on February 11, 1860, under the name of Wharton College. The number of faculty members rose from five to nine over the course of the following months, but the school was closed after the outbreak of the Civil War. Gillette continued to live in the building and taught one or two pupils until his return to New York in October 1865.

Hanna gets its rematch with North Augusta
Two years ago, T.L. Hanna was up 21-7 on a top-5 North Augusta team, 24 minutes away from the Class AAAA, Division II Upper State finals.
At that point no one could argue the Yellow Jackets weren't contenders.
It was the last time the program carried that moniker. Tonight's rematch with the Yellow Jackets from Aiken County represents Hanna's first step toward reclaiming it.
"This is the first of five or six games where we'll see where we are compared to some of the other really good playoff teams," said Hanna coach Kenya Fouch, whose team also will play Mauldin, Wren, Greenwood, Easley, Laurens and J.L. Mann this season. "We should have a good idea after (today) what type of things we need to work on and just how far we are away from achieving that contender status."
Hanna squandered its halftime lead in an eventual 28-21 loss to North Augusta and followed with a disappointing 3-8 campaign last year.
Most of the names have changed over the last two years. Fouch said goodbye to a senior-laden defense and Hanna's all-time leading rusher while North Augusta lost a Division I quarterback and a loaded receiving core.
NAHS continued its offensive production at a torrid pace last season with over 5,500 yards in 14 games en route to a second consecutive appearance in the Upper State finals.
"That's what's really exciting about high school football. You have all that changeover and you just wait and see when the next really good crop of players is going to come along — hopefully sooner rather than later," Fouch said.
One thing Fouch can't bank on is size up front.
"I'm not sure how to fix the size issue," Fouch said. " ... We're really going to have to combat that size disadvantage with speed and movement, athleticism, by being in great shape and by playing hard. Instead of those guys wearing us down, maybe we can wear them down by making them move."
The Yellow Jackets' defensive line, which is going to feature a few sophomores and a freshman rotating in at the defensive tackle spots, had problems stopping Class AAA Palmetto's running game during a 13-10 loss in the Anderson County Jamboree last week.
It has been an issue the defensive coaches have been dealing with throughout camp.
Yet, Fouch said he's seen a huge improvement over the course of the practice week.
"There's nothing in the world like a kid being able to see himself on film not doing it right and encouraging him to do it right," Fouch said.
There will be plenty of film to dissect after tonight. Fouch just hopes his players will have taken some steps in the right direction.
