Contract negotiations between the Troy Education Association, the labor group representing teachers in the Troy School District, and district officials have been postponed until July 31.
The TEA contract expired June 30.
"No progress has been made," said Al Merian, high school trustee for the TEA executive board. "There's been no change at all."
Freezes in step increases remain a sticking point.
In 2011, the TEA agreed to concessions that included an 11 percent contribution for health care benefits and the freeze on step increase pay raises, which saved the district more than $10 million over two years.
At the June 18 Troy School District Board of Education meeting, Board President Nancy Philippart said the board and its negotiating team intend to continue to act and conduct business in a professional manner.
"The board is trying to make intelligent decisions today to ensure the long-term financial sustainability of the school district." She went on to cite state cuts in the per-pupil revenue and School Aid Fund money. She said Troy teachers are among the highest paid in the state and that a recent job posting attracted more than 100 applicants, many of them experienced teachers from other districts.
"The difficult issue in negotiations deals with legacy, or permanent, costs. The board does not want to commit to 'steps' — automatic, annual, seniority-based compensation increases that will tie the district to increased spending each year, regardless of cuts in state funding or other financial hardships. Legacy costs are how neighboring school districts, municipalities and cities have gotten into financial trouble," Philippart said.
She noted that the board has offered teachers on steps one through 10 $4,500 the first year and $2,800 the second year. "We have also set aside $500,000 over two years for performance-based compensation," she said.
"It would be easy for this board to just succumb to the picketing, the negative ads, the nasty letters and the pressure to sign up for automatic built-in legacy costs," Philippart said. "The district would be fine for the next two years, but as the legacy costs compound in year three and beyond, the district would see its reserves depleted — reserves that have kept us from having to cut salaries, eliminate programs and make drastic changes in the middle of the school year."
Last month, Debbie Rosenman, secretary for the executive board of the TEA, in talking with the Troy Times, questioned why the district's general fund balance of $22 million, or 16.8 percent of the budget, could not be used to reinstitute the step increases.
The district has enlisted a mediator to assist with negotiations.
The next scheduled talks are July 31 and Aug. 6.
Kerry Birmingham, director of media and community relations for the Troy School District, said the district has no immediate plans to declare an impasse or to impose a contract.
"Hopefully, we'll find a resolution as quickly as possible," Birmingham said.
Amanda Haller, a parent in the Troy School District, said the pre-written statement that Philippart read at the June 18 meeting doesn't truly cover parents' and teachers' concerns.
"The numbers are not making sense," she said. She said that around 40 of the top-paid teachers in the district plan to retire. "Couldn't that cover the step increases?
"I'd love to see the board work with the teachers," she said. "We love Troy."
"The district's team continues to bargain in good faith with the assistance of the mediator in hopes of reaching an agreement on a fair and equitable contract," said Jasen Witt, assistant superintendent for human resources.
Information on salaries for all Troy School District staff is available on the district website, www.troy.k12.mi.us.

The magnificent Art Deco tower of the El Rey Theatre has long been an important landmark in Alex Mullaney's life.
"My grandparents lived in Ingleside Terrace," Mullaney says, recalling his childhood in the early 1990s. "I knew we were going to my grandparents' place because we would see the El Rey."
On Saturday night the 25-year-old will finally get a chance to watch a film there. The 1,800-seat theater, which closed in 1977 and has operated as a church since, will reopen for a one-night-only screening of "The Smiling Lieutenant" starring Maurice Chevalier – the film playing when the El Rey opened in 1931. It's a benefit intended to raise awareness of landmarks in the area, with proceeds going to the Geneva Car Barn and Power House. …

George Bellows at Metropolitan Museum of Art
212-535-7710 www.metmuseum.org Ages: All Ages
This event has already taken place. Click here for the latest events.
George Bellows (1882-1925) was regarded as one of America's greatest artists when he died, at the age of forty-two, from a ruptured appendix. Bellows's early fame rested on his powerful depictions of boxing matches and gritty scenes of New York City's tenement life, but he also painted cityscapes, seascapes, war scenes, and portraits, and made illustrations and lithographs that addressed many of the social, political, and cultural issues of the day. Featuring some one hundred works from Bellows's extensive oeuvre, this landmark loan exhibition is the first comprehensive survey of the artist's career in nearly half a century. It invites the viewer to experience the dynamic and challenging decades of the early twentieth century through the eyes of a brilliant observer.
Venue Description: Sun.-Thurs., 10am-5:30pm; Fri.-Sat., 10am-9pm. Recommended admission: $25.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
A Riverdale attorney, Loletha Denise Hale, was in Henry County State Court this week, defending herself against charges that she made terroristic threats against the husband of a woman she was representing in a divorce case.
Hale was arrested and has bonded out of the Henry County Jail. No date has been announced for a trial, but she is supposed to appear before a judge Friday asking for a temporary order of protection against the husband, Tommy Thompson.
Hale threatened "to commit a crime of violence to the person of Tommy Thompson ... when she stated in front of several witnesses that 'if he came near her she would kill him' and 'if she saw him on the street she would put a bullet in his head,' " according the warrant signed for her arrest.
Hale allegedly made the threats April 11, during divorce proceedings involving Thompson, and his wife, Patricia, in the courtroom of Henry County Superior Court Judge Brian Amero.
On Monday, witnesses testified in a hearing before State Court Judge Jason Harper, that Hale appeared upset when she allegedly made death threats before a Henry County court clerk, and later in Amero's courtroom.
On Wednesday, a spokesperson for the General Council for the State Bar of Georgia, Paula Frederick, said there are some serious consequences for Hale if the charges against her are upheld.
"If she is convicted, then we would look at whether she has violated our rules of professional conduct, in what would either be a felony, or a misdemeanor, involving moral turpitude," said Frederick. "If she is convicted, we would bring an ethics complaint against her. If she is convicted of a felony, we would ask the Supreme Court of Georgia to disbar her."
Hale maintains Thompson threatened her before divorce proceedings began. She alleges Thompson made a fist, and asked her if she was scared, and called her "a b---h," before scheduled divorce proceedings began.
The incident unfolded Monday during a court hearing.
Thompson's attorney, William West, said Hale knew what she was doing she allegedly threatened him, and called for Hale's arrest.
Hale countered that Thompson should be arrested.
"Everything was going fine until we started talking about child support," said Hale of her conversation with the Thompsons in the hallway of the courthouse in McDonough. She said the three were agreeing on the divorce settlement.
Then, she said, "He began to curse me as we were walking towards Judge Amero's courtroom." She said Thompson lifted his arm, and made a fist, as if he was about to hit her. She asked Judge Harper to have him arrested. He did not grant it. Both sides said the hearing could go on with Judge Amero.
West called Tammy Collier to the stand. She is Senior Deputy Clerk for superior court and serves as Amero's court clerk. West questioned Collier about an e-mail she received on April 11, about Hale's conduct.
"Yes, the message was alarming, because of who it was from, and what was said," testified Collier.
"She [Hale] walked straight up to the podium and said she wanted this put on the record," said Collier. " 'If I see this man out on the street, I will shoot and kill him.' She seemed to be disgruntled."
She was then cross-examined by Hale regarding Judge Amero's instructions following the outburst.
"I recall he told Mr. Thompson to stay away from you," continued Collier. "He also told you not to have any contact with Mr. Thompson, and told you, you could withdraw from the case. You seemed upset, frustrated and a little bit agitated. You turned around and you said to the judge, 'If I see him out on the street, I will shoot and kill him.' That is what I heard you say," she said.
Attorney Kenneth Lawrence, of Jackson, was in court that day.
"Her [Hale's] voice went up an octave, she turned and pointed in his [Tommy Thompson's] direction and said, 'He has cursed me, threatened me, and he has a history of violence,' " said Lawrence. " 'If he were to come around me, I will shoot him and kill him dead.' She said she wanted it put on the record. I don't know that I have ever heard anything of that nature from an attorney."
Janice McCart, a Henry County Superior Court deputy clerk, testified she overheard conversation between Tommy Thompson and Hale.
"She couldn't believe he had drawn back his hand to hit her," said McCart. "She said she would be whooping his a--. She said, 'If I see him on the street, I am going to put a bullet in his head." ... I wrote it down, dated it, then I e-mailed it to Tammy [Collier]. McCart testified she sent the e-mail out of "concern of what could happen in the courtroom." It was entered in as evidence.
Then, West called to the stand Eboni Lemon, a legal advocate for the Haven House, a shelter for battered women and children.
"I heard her say, 'If he comes anywhere near me, I will kill him,' " said Lemon.
Under cross examination by Hale, Lemon admitted she did not hear any statements that led up to alleged threat.
"No, I did hear you say you wanted it on record, 'If he comes anywhere near me, I will kill him,' " said Lemon.
"Are you aware that I filed a TPO (temporary order of protection) against Mr. Thompson, at the Haven House?" asked Hale.
"Yes," answered Lemon.
"Well, was the TPO granted?"
"No, the date was set for May 4," responded Lemon.
Hale told the court she alerted Amero's courtroom bailiff Henry County Sheriff deputy, Terry Duffey.
Duffey testified that Hale told him Thompson was threatening her. He said he approached Thompson about Hale's concerns.
"He very calmly denied it," said Duffey. "He said she had paperwork that he wouldn't sign. She wanted it on record if she met Mr. Thompson on the street she was going to put a bullet in him. Judge Amero tried to defuse the situation."
Thompson then took the stand and denied Hale's allegations.
"I did not raise my hand to strike her," he said. "I called her a b---h, and a liar and I went on into the courtroom. ... She said your honor, I will put a bullet in his head. I was terribly upset," said Thompson. He repeatedly denied raising his hand to the Clayton County attorney.
Hale questioned him about being arrested for harassing his estranged wife.
He admitted the arrest, and said in 2002, he was instructed to attend anger management classes as a result.
The lone witness Hale called to testify on her behalf Monday, was her client, Patricia Thompson. She told the court she had been married to her husband for 14 years before filing for divorce.
"You were really being nice to him," testified Patricia Thompson. "You told him you would let the judge decide on the child support. He started putting his hand up like this (gesturing a fist) and said now you scared. I am so shocked I can't believe I am here today."
West asked Patricia Thompson about Hale's alleged threat to her husband.
"I didn't hear her say anything," she said.
West told the court, Hale's threat was a conditional threat.
"There are certain restraints by the Georgia Bar, even if it's a conditional threat. That is not proper conduct for an attorney. We asked that Ms. Hale be taken into custody today."
In her closing argument, Hale said she and Mr. Thompson did not have a problem until he started cursing her.
"He is out of control. ... I'm afraid if we don't do something, we will be here again because Mr. Thompson has killed somebody," the attorney said.
Judge Harper said he was considering both threats made by Ms. Hale, the first in the clerk's office and the other in open court.
"When a threat is made to a third party, the threat is valid," said Harper. "You are an officer of the court. The second threat made in the courtroom... is a conditional threat, if you use a term they cannot avoid. I certainly do not do this lightheartedly."
The judge charged Hale with making terroristic threats and had the bailiff to take Hale into custody. She was taken to the Henry County Jail. Hale was released from jail the same day on a $1,500 bond.

What on Earth is Going On with the Boulder County Farmers' Market?
What's going on with the Boulder County Farmers' Market?
Does it need help? Three exec directors fired/let go in two years. We all love it and want to support—what's up? What ideas would you bring to the table to improve it (not that it's broken).
Boulder County Farmers' Market seeking third executive director in two years (coloradodaily.com)
Sad. She was sweet, caring, and a farmer. Who knows how good a job she was doing, but sad the way they did it—releasing BS PR, when clearly the story was something altogether different. If we can't find transparency among farmers and treehuggers, where will we find it?
That said, the market could be bigger, more innovative. A national search, to my mind, isn't the answer—better to find someone with deep roots and a willingness to innovate. The board, however, wants leadership, but in my limited understanding (via vendors, there) doesn't like to support it.

I'm working with a first time home buyer who's interested in buying a home priced around $200,000 in the greater Seattle area. I thought I'd share some of the programs we have available at Mortgage Master Service Corporation that may help her accomplish her home buying goals.
"Betty Bellevue" has excellent credit and is looking for a detached single family dwelling (not a condo). She'd like to have a total mortgage payment of less than $1300.
"Betty Bellevue" has excellent credit and is looking for a detached single family dwelling (not a condo). She'd like to have a total mortgage payment of less than $1300.
NOTE: Please keep in mind when reviewing rate quotes below that Mortgage Master Service Company does not factor rate credit rebate into APRs. Therefore, all of the closing cost may be paid by rate rebate, leaving the buyer with zero closing cost, however, the apr's below will not reflect that.
Mortgage rates quoted are effective as of November 1, 2012 at 10:30 am and are no longer valid. For a current mortgage rate quote based on TODAY'S rates, please click here.
Property taxes estimated at $188.27 and home owners insurance estimated at $50 per month.
FHA is a program that allows for minimum down payment of 3.5%, which can be gifted from family. FHA has both monthly and upfront mortgage insurance. This program is available for home buyers with credit scores of 640 or higher. Debt-to-income ratios may go beyond 45% with compensating circumstances. Sellers can currently contribute up to 6% of the sales price towards bona fide closing cost and prepaids (buyer must pay down payment).
FHA 30 year fixed with 5% down payment has a PIMI payment of $1029.63 (PIMI = principal, interest and mortgage insurance) based on a rate of 3.250% (apr 4.132). Current pricing has enough rebate rate credit to cover all closing cost, prepaids and reserves leaving just the down payment of $10,000.
FHA 30 year fixed with 3.5% down payment of $7000, has a PIMI payment of $1053.83 based on a rate of 3.250% (apr 4.190).
Conventional conforming financing with less than 20% down payment will require private mortgage insurance. The maximum debt to income ratio is 45%. In my opinion, home buyers should consider this program if they have excellent credit and steady salaries. It can be more challenging to qualify for than FHA. Since Betty Bellevue has both excellent credit and employment, conventional financing is worth her consideration. Betty Bellevue will need to contribute at least 5% of her own funds towards down payment, the remainder of the funds may be a gift from family.
Conventional 30 year fixed with 5% down payment has a PIMI payment of $970.35 based on a rate of 3.500% (apr 4.054). Estimated closing cost (after rebate credit) are $1900, not including prepaids/reserves.
Conventional 30 year fixed with 5% down payment using split premium mortgage insurance (similar to FHA, except at a reduced rate) has a PIMI payment of $907.01 based on a rate of 3.500% (apr 3.901). Estimated closing cost are $3800, after rebate rate credit. With split premium mortgage insurance, the upfront premium cannot be financed (FHA borrowers typically finance the upfront MI).
Fannie Mae Homepath is a special program that's only available for specific homes designated by Fannie Mae. Homepath does not require an appraisal and allows down payments as low as 3% with no borrower paid mortgage insurance. This is a conventional Fannie Mae mortgage program for homes owned by Fannie Mae (foreclosures). Down payment may be a gift from family members.
30 year fixed with 5% down payment has a principal and interest payment (no mortgage insurance) of $907.09 based on a rate of 4.000% (apr 4.107). Closing cost, excluding prepaids and reserves) are estimated at $2865.
30 year fixed wtih 3% down payment of $7000 has a P&I of $982.97 based on a rate of 4.500% (apr 4.597). Closing cost are estimated at $2330, excluding prepaids and reserves.
If Betty Bellevue was considering buying in an area designated as rural by USDA, she could consider a zero down USDA home loan. Properties must be in USDA's designated rural area and her household must have meet income limitation requirements.
A zero down VA home loan would be an option if Betty Bellevue had served our country in the military.
If you're considering buying your first home located anywhere in Washington state, I'm happy to help you.

Mandala Sand Painting Exhibit Featured in Mystical Arts of Tibet Series
WALNUT, Calif., March 16, 2004—Southern Californians will have a rare opportunity to witness over a five-day period the amazing creation of a colorful Mandala sand painting by the monks of Tibet's Drepung Loseling Monastery from March 30 through April 3 at the Mt. San Antonio College Art Gallery.
On March 30, the monks will begin constructing the Mandala by drawing the design on a raised platform or base. Over the following four days, the monks will engage in the painstaking process of laying millions of grains of colored sand into an intricate design of traditional icons that include geometric shapes and a multitude of ancient spiritual symbols.
By Saturday, April 3, the monks will complete their colorful masterpiece and conduct a closing ritual that begins at the gallery and ends at the College's Wildlife Sanctuary, where the Mandala will be disposed. This ritual symbolizes the impermanence of all that exists in life and the need for sharing prayers and blessings with the world.
Dating back to the 11th century, Mandala sand painting is considered to be among the oldest and most unique and exquisite artistic traditions of Tantric Buddhism. In Tibet, this art is called dul-tson-kyil-klor, which means "Mandala of colored powders."
The Mandala sand painting is a key feature of Mt. SAC's Mystical Arts of Tibet exhibition. Other related events include a performance by multiphonic singers and masked dancers in the Performing Arts Center (April 3), as well as a Far Eastern photographic exhibit in the campus Art Gallery (March 30-April 2). Images of Asia – a 12 year Journey Through the Far East captures international photographer James D. Gonzales' fascinating journey from Bali to Kyoto. In Communicating Eastern Wisdom, Kimu Higgins shares her interpretation of eastern wisdom.
Both the Mandala and photo exhibits are free and open to the public. The Tibetan dance performance is $21 general admission, $15 for seniors, $12 for students, and $10 for children under 12 years old. A $2 parking fee is charged during weekday events in Lot B or Pay Lot B. Free 30-minute parking and handicapped parking are available south of the entrance to the Performing Arts Center.
For information regarding exhibit hours, directions or special accommodations, please contact the Mt. SAC Performing Arts Center Box Office at (909) 468-4050.

WALNUT, Calif., March 1, 2004 – "The funniest farce ever written" is how New York critics described the hilarious backstage farce, Noises Off, which opens Friday, March 12 at 8 p.m. at the Sophia B. Clarke Theater of Mt. San Antonio College's Performing Arts Center, 1100 N. Grand Ave. Additional performances are set for March 13, 19 and 20 also at 8 p.m.
Michael Frayn's brilliant, award-winning play-within-a-play is full of sidesplitting humor and bounces between love, lust, liquor, sardines, an aversion to violence and the perennial pratfalls.
Everything that can go wrong does, as a melee of characters stagger from dress rehearsal to disastrous final night, desperately trying to hang on to their lines – and the furniture – while coping with the kinetic chaos.
Noises Off was an immediate smash hit when it was brought to Broadway from London in 1983.
General admission is $10, and $8 for seniors, students and children under 12 years old. Ample parking is free.
For information regarding tickets, special and advanced seating, directions or other special arrangements, please contact the Performing Arts Center Box Office at (909) 468-4050.

Mt. SAC Flying Team Headed to Nationals
Walnut, CA --The Mt. San Antonio College Flying Team won the Top Community College trophy and third place overall at the Pacific Coast Intercollegiate Flying Association's SAFECON 2004, a regional airmeet competition featuring flying teams from colleges and universities in the Western United States, held February 13-15 in Prescott, Ariz.
With the third-place finish, the Mt. SAC Flying Team will advance to defend its title as Top Community College Flying Team in the nation at the national intercollegiate airmeet at Middle Tennessee State University in April. Mt. SAC has won the Top Community College trophy at the regional competition every year since 1989.
Mt. SAC placed third overall behind first-place Embry-Riddle University in Prescott and San Jose State University. The Mt. SAC team also won the Team Safety trophy for the second year in a row.
The Mt. SAC Flying Team consistently earns top honors as one of the best collegiate flying teams in the country. Mt. SAC won the Top U.S. Community College award at the Intercollegiate Flying Association's national airmeets in 1984, 1985, 1995, 2000, 2002, and 2003.
Mt. SAC Achieves High Level of Employee Satisfaction
Walnut, CA . . . In an era of supermarket strikes and employee dissatisfaction, results from a recent survey reveal that employees at Mt. San Antonio College overwhelmingly enjoy their work environment and take pride in what they do.
"The results clearly demonstrate a high degree of job satisfaction among our employees, who also feel they are doing something worthwhile both professionally and socially," said President Christopher O'Hearn.
According to a fall 2003 survey that gauged employee perspectives about their work, 97% of respondents said they take pride in their work, and 93% feel they are doing something worthwhile. Further, 81% of survey respondents said they would recommend Mt. SAC as a good place to work.
The results also cast a favorable light on the work environment at Mt. SAC in comparison to employees at other workplaces that have participated in the same survey.
"These findings are not all that surprising," noted Barbara McNeice-Stallard, Mt. SAC's director of research and institutional effectiveness. "Once people start working here, they quickly feel comfortable with the workplace and end up staying a long time. One reason is nearly 80% of survey respondents believe the college respects all differences in people, including gender, age, ethnicity, culture, disability, and diverse lifestyles."
The study also found that Mt. SAC employees are more satisfied with their jobs than employees in other fields who have taken the same survey. More than three-quarters of Mt. SAC respondents (77%) are satisfied with their jobs compared to 63% of others.
While survey respondents highly rated their overall employment experience, they identified opportunities for improvement, including internal communication, greater operational efficiency, and enhanced compensation and benefits.
Mt. SAC evaluated employee attitudes through the Organizational Survey System (OSS), which has been used to gauge the perspectives of more than 47,000 employees in the manufacturing, retail, hospitality, educational, and financial industries throughout the United States.
Administered by Pearson Reid London House in Chicago, the survey was completed by 783 Mt. SAC employees, including faculty, administrators, and classified staff. McNeice-Stallard noted that this constitutes a good representative sampling of the District's 2,500 full-time and part-time workers.

One Saturday last February, a curious busload from Vanderbilt got a taste of that old-time religion–and many of the varieties of religion to be found in Nashville.
That day scholars involved with the "God in Music City" initiative watched the choir at Corinthian Baptist Church rehearse a rousing program, heard the organist at Christ Church Episcopal belt out a magnificent organ fugue, and visited stately houses of worship including Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church and Congregation Micah. Robin Jensen, the Luce Chancellor's Professor of the History of Christian Worship and Art, led the tour.
"In the space of six hours, we experienced seven different structures and radically different kinds of music associated with substantially different theologies," says Allison Pingree, director of the Vanderbilt Center for Teaching and one of three principal investigators of the God in Music City project. "Our goal of opening up understanding and breaking down barriers and stereotypes was happening that day."
God in Music City was an interdisciplinary class. It was a series of events including glimpses into the worlds of country music videos, gay Christian music and the blues; it was a double CD compiled and released by Greg Barz, associate professor of ethnomusicology and a principal investigator of the God in Music City project; and it was an experiment in team-teaching and experiential learning.
"I think the role that music-making plays in our houses of worship deserves our serious attention, and I think the God in Music City project is a huge step in the right direction," says Dale Cockrell, professor of musicology in the Blair School of Music.
God in Music City was one project of the Music, Religion and the South study group of the Center for the Study of Religion and Culture, a transinstitutional center at Vanderbilt dedicated to developing, promoting and increasing faculty research at the intersections of religion and culture.
The God in Music City course was structured to expose students to as great a variety of religious musical expression as possible, and then help them sort it out.
"The class became a focus group that helped the professors learn something," says John McClure, the third principal investigator of the project and Charles G. Finney Professor of Homiletics at Vanderbilt Divinity School. "It's given me ideas for further projects."
Already there's talk of a book about the project. Pingree plans to explore the team-teaching employed in the class for a new project, and Barz founded a record label to release a God in Music City CD.
"This won't stop," says Volney Gay, co-director of the Center for the Study of Religion and Culture. "This train is moving down the tracks."

Two Swimming Advisories Issued For Biscayne Bay
CBS Miami (con't)
Affordable Care Act Updates: CBSMiami.com/ACA
Health News & Information: CBSMiami.com/Health
Healthy Living
MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Health officials are asking people to stay out of the water in certain areas of Biscayne Bay after high levels of bacteria were found.
One advisory was issued for western Biscayne Bay, from the shoreline east to Intercoastal Coastal Waterway between the NE 67th St and Lake Road/NE 50th St.
The recent heavy rains caused a sewer pump station to overload.
The advisory area also includes the shoreline among Morningside Park located between Lake Road and NE 55th St. and American Legion Park located between NE 64th and NE 67th streets.
Another advisory has also been issued for the waters and shoreline off of Virginia Key Beach. Officials say a power interruption at the Virginia Key plant pumps to malfunction and discharge treated wastewater into the bay.
Swimmers are urged to avoid contact with surface waters in the area.
The Miami-Dade County Permitting, Environment and Regulatory Affairs Department will be conducting tests to determine when it is safe to swim in the water.
For more information on the advisories, residents can visit www.miamidade.gov.

Hi, I'm Joe. I've lived in the Bay Area for almost three years, having moved here from NYC. I'm originally from Baltimore (it was an interesting Superbowl this year!), and I strongly believe that the world is a better place because of Curb Your Enthusiasm. I love food and wine, enjoy exercise, biking and driving around exploring this great part of the country.
I love to cook. My food is usually pretty tasty. I think that my favorite way to cook is when others look in the fridge, say there's nothing left to eat, and then I can pull together something unexpected/new/delic ious.
I'm always happy to meet new people, and I really like to be around those who are outgoing, intelligent, spontaneous, sophisticated and worldly.

Police say a Freeport man has been missing since wandering off late Saturday night at this year's Chickenfest, an annual party hosted by University of Maine students usually in rural Penobscot County.
Trooper Thomas Fiske of the Maine State Police said Dean Levasseur, 24, was in one of the bands playing at Chickenfest, held this year in Howland, approximately 3 miles west of the town's Interstate 95 exit off of Lagrange Road.
"We don't know what happened to him," Fiske said. "Last we know is at about 10:30 [p.m.], he was seen by one of his band mates behind the stage. That's all we got."
Fiske said state police were at the scene searching with a dog early Monday morning through much of the daytime, but found no sign of Levasseur. He said once weather clears, a plane will be used to search for him.
Chickenfest is held in a secret location each year and details about the party are spread by word of mouth. Fiske said that when police learn of the location, they respond and try to keep attendees from leaving in cars. He said the Penobscot County Sheriff's Office was covering the area that night and sent six deputies to control the situation.
When they responded, Fiske said "several hundred people" were already at the party.
"It's like a little boy sticking his finger in the dike, trying to hold back the flood waters and prevent it from getting any bigger than it already was," Fiske said. "What ended up happening is [party attendees] bypassed where we were and ended up parking on the other side [of the party] and hiked in."
Fiske said as many as 500 people attended Chickenfest. He said many parked near the interstate exit and walked miles to get to it.
"It surprised the heck out of me how far away some of these people would park and walk," Fiske said. "You had folks parked down by that exit, so that tells you how far some of them walked."
According to Fiske, partiers left behind a "total mess" of cans, cups, trash, food and broken bottles on privately owned land without the landowner's permission.
"If you could [see] what the area looks like today and you were the landowner, you wouldn't be a happy camper," he said. "Everything they carried in, it looks like they left behind."
Fiske said the Freeport Police Department initiated an attempt-to-locate notice after Chickenfest. A Monday message sent via UMaine's FirstClass system by spokesman Ron Lisnet describes Levasseur as a white male, standing 5'6 and weighting 145 pounds. It says he was last seen wearing a green jacket and blue jeans and that anyone with information on his whereabouts should call the Maine State Police in Orono at 866-2121.
Levasseur's LinkedIn page says he is expected to graduate this year from Southern Maine Community College in South Portland. According to Magic Hat Brewing Company's website, Levasseur has been a member of Roots, Rhythm and Dub, a South Berwick-based band founded in 2006.

Week 11 Breakdown
Though I endevor to include all top performances and as many great plays and players each and every week, time and space means that there will be a few I miss. This is no reflection on the team or me as a fan or writer, in some cases it's just unlucky they're not included. Enjoy.
Break out Performer
As the weeks go on its getting harder and harder to find a break out performer so instead I'll mention a player who's beginning to come into his own. Ted Ginn was drafted 7th overall by the Miami Dolphins in a year where the draft was laden with more deserving talent. With the subsequent pathetic year and gutting of the franchise at the coaching and front office it was easy to understand why many members of the NFL community considered the move a monumental mistake, and though Ginn hasn't exploded he's beginning to show just how big of a weapon he can be in the NFL. Ginn has only realistically had one one hundred yard day (175 yards against Buffalo) but his 40+ yard dash on an end around and his ability in the return game have showcased quickness and a knack for getting away from defenders rarely seen the league. Critics of Ginn will cite his 500 receiving yards and 2 total touchdowns as cause for concern, but seeing as until recently the receiver position took a minimum of two to three complete seasons to develop gin is realistically right where he should be developmentally. I doubt it will happen this season, but Ginn is developing into a game changing playmaker and figures to be a staple on the dolphins unit.
Coaching Comments
After shocking most of the NFL with a resounding win over the Washington Redskins with Jim Haslett at the helm it appears that the St Louis Rams and their head coach have well and truly come crashing back to earth with the 35-16 defeat at the hands of San Francisco. Though clearly suffering from injuries and lack of talent on defense the Rams were beaten in every phase of the game and it was clear that coaching was a part of the problem. With millions in free agents and high draft picks up and down the defense one has to wonder when the team will live up to their pay grade. Haslett, though a decent defensive coordinator, is clearly not the answer at head coach for the franchise.
QB Watch
I realise Bill Belichick has assembled a mega talented offensive supporting cast and he's undoubtedly been able to make game plans that are tailored to his strengths but Matt Cassel is making himself a heck of a lot of money this season. Right now, there really is no downside for a team who is looking for a future starting quarterback to take a long hard look at Matt Cassel. Standing at six four, 230 pounds Cassel stands tall in the pocket and isn't easy to bring down, he's shown some good athleticism outside the pocket and his arm is clearly good enough to make all the throws (anyone else hate that cliché?). His 65% completion rate is what I find most impressive considering Tom Brady has only ever surpassed that mark once in his career. While I'm not really comparing the two and Cassel is far from a sure thing as a free agent consider this, he's 26 years old and has spent 4 years under Bill Belichick and Tom Brady and is at least capable of being a winner and leader to a team, there's not a lot in his game that should turn team's away.
Rookie Watch
See Below
Homer Corner
Three Carolina Panthers' rookies made massive impacts in Sunday's win over Detroit. Stewart as part of the self named Smash and Dash backfield made his presence felt early and often to the tune of 15 rushes for 130 yards. Jeff Otah started his fifth game at Right Tackle and was flat out dominant against a backup left defensive end, watch for his key block in the fourth quarter DeAngelo Williams touchdown, he's the one driving two players into the end zone. Finally, Charles Godrey the third round pick, former cornerback who has been a revelation at free safety for the Panthers record his first career interception when he picked off a fourth quarter Dante Culpepper pass sealing the Lions fate. Without the play of these three the outcome could've been very different.
That being said, Jake Delhomme has to step up his game coming into the final six weeks of the schedule, with three divisional clashes and then the games against a resurgent Green bay, Denver and New York Giants a passing game free from inane mistakes will be pivotal to securing the division.
Other Stuff
With six weeks to go here are my final predictions
NFC North: Green bay Packers
NFC East: New York Giants
NFC West: Arizona Cardinals
NFC South: Carolina Panthers
Wildcard: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Dallas Cowboys
AFC North: Pittsburgh Steelers
AFC East: New York Jets
AFC West: Denver Broncos
AFC South: Tennessee Titans
Wildcard: Buffalo Bills, Indianapolis Colts

BLM sells oil leases in southeastern Utah
The U.S. Bureau of Land Management sold 13 oil and gas leases this week without protest. The leases comprised 12,195 acres in the southeastern Utah Canyon Country District.
The sales netted $523,000 and had support from officials in Grand and San Juan counties. Although some nonprofit groups submitted comments questioning air and groundwater protections for the likely development, they did not lodge protests.
Moab-based Living Rivers thanked the agency for reducing the sale acreage to protect areas around Arches National Park, and the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance called the sale validation of the BLM's current "win-win" approach to energy development and conservation.
"Energy development is moving forward while we continue to protect the great treasures of Grand County," County Councilwoman Audrey Graham said in a written statement.

When you're the one throwing up in front of Miley Cyrus, something's wrong.
Jennifer Lawrence appeared on last night's "Late Night with Seth Meyers," where she let all of us know what it's really like at some of the crazy Oscar after-parties -- and, the way she tells it, they sound insane!
Between sniffing Brad Pitt and hopping to a bash hosted by Madonna, it's clear the Academy Award-winner had an incredible evening, even though Lupita Nyong'o went home with the trophy in 2014.
But the most embarrassing moment of the night happened at the very end of the Madge soiree, when J-Law found herself puking over Guy Oseary's porch as the former Disney star watched.
See how she explained it above -- and check out some of the after-party insanity below.

|Vieitez Victimizes Greene, Bears Win Eighth Straight
|Written by Staff Reports
|Friday, 18 April 2014 21:07
The Lenoir-Rhyne Baseball Team (18-28) won its seventh consecutive game with a 9-4 triumph over Pfeiffer (26-20) Friday afternoon in a non-conference affair at Joe Ferebee Field.
L-R junior outfielder Ivan Vieitez (Miami, Fla.) finished with three hits and three runs scored and hit a three-run home run in the second inning to lead the Bears to the victory.
Lenoir-Rhyne senior Eric Ryan (Baltimore, Md.) also picked up his second straight win on the mound. Ryan (3-4) allowed just one run in seven innings of work while scattering four hits and striking out three batters in the victory.
Vieitez helped the Bears take control early as Lenoir-Rhyne scored the first seven runs of the contest.
Lenoir-Rhyne senior outfielder Brandon Walker (Otisville, N.Y.) added two hits and two runs batted in as the Bears led by a 9-1 score after four innings of play and cruised to the win.
For Pfeiffer, Anthony Allende (Mount Pleasant, N.C.) had a two-run double in the eighth inning but Ethan Greene (Todd, N.C.) fell to 6-3 after suffering the loss. Greene went five innings and gave up nine earned runs on 11 hits with three walks and four strikeouts. Greene has now lost two in a row.
The two teams continue the weekend series at Bears Field with a doubleheader on Saturday beginning at 1:00 p.m.

David Wilson: Arrivals
David Wilson's works on paper and performance-based pieces explore what he describes as "the many lost corners and in-between stretches of natural and developed space" in Northern California. He has organized events at such locations as Angel Island, Wildcat Canyon, and the Marin Headlands. Whether he is working in large groups or in one-on-one exchanges, Wilson's ephemeral projects often involve collaboration with a rich community of musicians, filmmakers, and other artists. He frequently announces his participatory gatherings and site-specific installations through invitations that include folded maps with directions and sketches meant to guide attendees to carefully composed situations. The performative and social aspect of his work stems from repeated, solitary visits to an area, which are reflected in the plein air studies he creates in drawing and watercolor on found paper.
David Wilson's Arrivals (2013), a series of six self-guided journeys to outdoor sites throughout San Francisco, begins at a reclaimed redwood trailhead in front of the closed SFMOMA museum building at 151 Third Street. Approximately every two weeks, the artist will leave new takeaway maps there. Each map will provide instructions for the experience and lead visitors to sites where Wilson and his collaborators have recorded songs, music, and sound-based performances. Participants are invited to listen to these recordings upon locating a tape player at each of the sites. The performances draw in part from In Song Sing On (2012-ongoing), a publication project for sing-alongs Wilson is producing in collaboration with artist Colter Jacobsen. Creating a sense of shared intimacy despite distance, Arrivals facilitates a private listening experience that connects each individual with both the performers and with fellow future audience members.
The first map leads visitors to a eucalyptus grove in the Presidio, where the artist has installed an elaborate, sixteen-foot-high ink drawing that will be on view throughout the exhibition. Spread over twenty-four sheets of paper, it depicts Frog Woman Rock, a landmark rock formation in the Russian River Canyon in Northern California that the artist associates with expectation and arrival. Over the course of the exhibition, Wilson will regularly develop new sites and drawings in different corners of the city, from freeways to alleys. "I've tried to find areas with a sense of autonomy and privacy, that have a beautiful, forgotten quality," he says. "They are often places whose jurisdiction is in a gray zone, and maybe you can feel like it's yours for a minute."
Specific walking and public transportation instructions are indicated on the takeaway maps.

Before I got a Paterson orbital I used divided trays. I often got overdeveloped edges probably due to over-enthusiastic rocking..One day I found there were a few dead flies floating in the water that I had left in a tray. Out of curiosity I decided to find out how little I could move the tray and still get the flies to move around the tray. I found it was very little indeed. Slowly lifting one corner of the tray no more than 5 millimetres caused enough agitation to do the trick. So this has been my method ever since. I have the Orbital on a flat surface, and place a finger under a corner and slowly raise and lower it a few millimetres. I may repeat this once, or twice. Or may do it just once, before moving on to another corner -opposite or adjacent. I follow no pattern, but keep the developer moving slowly and continuously.
Once I tried vigorous agitation for five seconds every half minute -with nothing in between. I got tide marks of uneven development across the negatives. So I went back to continuous agitation. The tide marks were on 5x7 film, and the developer was D76 1+2. Don't know if Rodinal would have done the same.

The reburial is planned Monday afternoon at the grave of Shannon Siders in Newaygo City Cemetery, 35 miles north of Grand Rapids.
Bob Siders said it marks "another step" in the investigation into his daughter's slaying.
Shannon Siders, who was 18 at the time, was last seen alive July 18, 1989. Her decomposed body was found three months later in the Manistee National Forest in Newaygo County's Brooks Township. A task force was set up in 2011 to look into the case and her body was exhumed in July.
Monday is the 23rd anniversary of the discovery of her body.

I'm back again, with little news of my own. Cindy has released another pattern (she's on fire) and when she called me last week, I could tell she needed pictures of her new socks right.that.second. I was in love with the socks the second she slipped them on her feet. Look!
Pattern: Knit Slouch Socks by Cindy Myska Colbert
Cute, right? And clever! The slouchy part of the sock is knit with a luxurious cashmere-angora-wool blend yarn (As payment for the photoshoot, I got a skein – it's Noro Shiraito. Mmmmm.) and the foot is any old sock yarn you have around.
A while ago, I mentioned to Cindy that my goal was to write two patterns a month. That clicked with her, and she's been designing really great things these last few months. Obvi, the same can't be said for me, but I'm excited to see all the new designs she has come up with.
I guess I have news of my own, but nothing as exciting as slouchy socks. I just yesterday finished my first semester of school, and my prerequisites are officially done! When I start classes in the Fall it will be all photography, all the time.
I am knitting socks.
Pointelle from Knit. Sock. Love by Cookie A. My mom bought me some gorgeous yarn, String Theory Merino DK, and on a US 2 over 60 sts, they fit. The socks look big, they are big, and they fit me. ERGO I have boats for feet. I'm over it.
Lastly, I had a second engagement shoot with my cousin and her fiance in downtown Greensboro.
Much like the first time, they were adorable. Actually even more so!

A German consortium apparently has won a $1-billion concession to run San Francisco's Presidio Parkway project for 33 years. The state of California, the California Dept. of Transportation and the San Francisco County Transportation Authority issued a notice of intent to sign a public-private partnership deal with Essen, Germany-based Hochtief Concessions. Meridiam Infrastructure, Luxemburg, is Hochtief 's 50% partner on the Golden Gate Bridge southern access project's design, construction, finance, operation and maintenance. The consortium's construction team is led by Hochtief subsidiary Flatiron. The German firm set up Hochtief PPP Solutions North America in 2009 to bid on PPP projects in Canada. It is now working on on two major projects: 10 schools in Canada's Alberta province and 18 provincial police facilities in Ontario province. The contract is scheduled to be finalized in December.

I couldn't find chocolate wafers so I bought Nilla wafers and put dark cocoa powder in after I ground them. I also upped the peanut butter (crunchy) with an extra 3/4 cup. The springform pan was a great idea from previous cook. This recipe is so good! I hope my husband enjoys this version over the cream cheese version his mom makes for his birthday!!!flag if inappropriate
Excellent! The pie was light and not too sweet, unlike the cream cheese version I've made which was way too sweet, heavy and with a twang from the cheese. I made a graham cracker crust instead of the chocolate wafer one. It was very good with the fillling. I increased the chopped peanuts to 1/2 cup also. Next time I serve this, I plan on drizzling chocolate syrup on each serving and on the dessert plate.flag if inappropriate
I have made this pie several times and have always about doubled the peanut butter. I do the same when I make peanut butter cookies. Trick I learned from one of the chef's I worked with, if you add a bit of oil (about a teaspoon or two) to your chocolate and then melt it, it is so much easier to cut the pie later. Try it, it really works.flag if inappropriate
This recipe is phenomenal! Every time I make it, I get requests for the recipe. I make the "inside" exactly as the recipe states. For the crust though, I use Oreo cookies -- about 3/4 of the box -- chopped in the food processor. No need to scrape the middles out of the cookies before chopping. Mix with a stick of melted butter and you are good to go! I make this pie in a springform pan, so it is extra deep and thick. YUMMY!flag if inappropriate
Kids said it was "too peanut buttery". I think it needed more chocolate - perhaps a chocolate topping would suffice. Will try again, but next time with the aforementioned sauce.flag if inappropriate
Thought this pie would be richer. Maybe I didn't mix it enough - but the consistency was strange and the peanut pieces made it stranger. Not very swwet or rich - tasted like frozen milk with peanut butter mixed in.flag if inappropriate
This pie was stupendous, period. Most time, when I write a review for an epicurious recipe, I have additions or deletions to report, but not here. It is perfect as is. My husband announced in protest (before I baked it)that he wasn't going to have any because he wanted something else (I have three kids who wanted this!) but he ended up raving. It is not two sweet, incredibly easy, looks beautiful and the crust is fabulous. I am too ignorant about piping and all that, so I just sprinkled the crumbs and put whole peanuts on top of the crumbs and all around the edge about an inch apart. It looked great. PS I first wrote the above comments a year ago--I have to add something now. I promised a colleague that I'd make this for his birthday and the store was out of chocolate wafers. So I bit the bullet and bought oriole sandwich cookies and scraped off the white inside stuff with a sharp knife. It only took about 15-20 minutes and the crust was so much better, richer and darker than with the wafers. I increase the crust amount (the crumbs I mean) by 1/4 cup or so cause the thicker crusts are popular when you are dealing with cookie crumbs!flag if inappropriate
This pie is ambrosia! Not only is it delumptious, it has magical power! Trust me! Try this pie! You'll swoon! The pie is fun to make. I love the fact that it does not require cream cheese, so it's not too rich. I used a graham cracker crust instead of the chocolate, and used cool whip instead of making whipped cream. So, I cheated a little. Next time, I'll follow the recipe and use real whipped cream and chocolate crust.flag if inappropriate
Wonderful! I first made this recipe about 5 years ago, and lost it in a move a few years back. I was thrilled to see it on this website, and have made it a few times since. Probably incredibly high in fat, but definitely worth it!flag if inappropriate
