That first day that Anna and I met we were 4,000 miles away from each other. Skype is our information pipeline and how we have both learned a lot. Anna, a high school student from Bowling Green, KY, is living just north of London with her family while her father teaches at a local University.
This is Anna's first time abroad but it is made easier by being with her family. Although I've just had lunch at the office, Anna has just finished her school day, choir practice and dance lessons. Sometimes during our tutor lesson in her Victorian bedroom I get to see her hanging blazer and school uniform. Neither Anna nor I are located at the KET Headquarters in Lexington, KY so we figure out the best times and places to Skype for both of us. I've had the pleasure of enjoying her stories of doing homework on the train from London and adjusting our meeting time one week because Daylight Savings Time happens earlier in the UK. Her Halloween and Thanksgiving were not too far from how she celebrates in the US. At her school there was Trick-or-Treating and all of the Americans, including Anna's family, contributed towards Thanksgiving resulting in more food than anyone could finish. While Anna is exploring her surroundings, I'm very fortunate to have the opportunity to Skype with her twice a week. She has just finished the semester and is traveling in Germany this week. I left her with some recommendations and well wishes before we paused our tutor lessons. The next time we Skype will be Christmas Eve and in the same time zone for the first time.
Congratulations to this brave young girl for all she's seen and done in the past 6 months and thanks for letting myself and everyone at KET Distance Learning share the experience! We are both already looking forward to next semester.
-Jordan Sangmeister (KET German Tutor)

Ben Stiller defends Tom Cruise
Ben Stiller and other celebrities are defending Tom Cruise after several Scientology videos were leaked last week and an unauthorized autobiography about Tom was released. People reports:
"Imagine having a baby and people talking about it the way they did," says Stiller. "People lose sight of the fact that Tom Cruise is actually a person. I feel for him."
Ben Stiller has a point. I mean, Tom Cruise is a person. Who's really an alien – trapped inside a person. That can talk to other aliens inside other persons. It all makes sense when you think about it and are really, really high.
NOTE: I reposted the FunnyOrDie spoof because, well, it's freaking hilarious. I still can't get over it's Jerry O'Connell. I thought he was just a myth.

Eye To Eyebeam: A Conversation With Alan Sondheim
Eye to Eyebeam is a series on Eyebeam's artists in residence and fellows that includes interviews, photos, and other information on Eyebeam's artists and creative technologists. It is authored by Eyebeam intern Katherine DiPierro.
Alan Sondheim is a transmedia artist, a musician, a theorist, and a writer. In past interviews, he has described himself as falling "between" literature and the arts; similarly, his projects fall between real and virtual bodies and worlds. For nearly forty years, Alan has employed his talents in writing and art-making to produce books, videos, performances, and net art. Through prolific writing and art-making, Alan has worked on many projects that link philosophy, psychology, language, body, sexuality, and virtuality. Eyebeam intern Katherine DiPierro (virtually) sat down with Alan Sondheim to find out more about his past and current work.
Katherine DiPierro: What are you planning to do during your residency?
Alan Sondheim: Already this is complicated; my artistic practice has always been to make one piece or moment of a conversation, daily. So that continues. I'm working in several directions: involvements/collaborations with the performance, installation, and choreographic work of Monika Weiss and Foofwa d'Imobilite, as well as ongoing work later in the fall with Leslie Thornton; working on the phenomenology of pain, dis/comfort, sexuality, and rupture in virtual worlds and theorizing the phenomenology of the virtual in this regard; and examining the 'atmospherics' of Eyebeam - the very low frequency radio signals from the ionosphere and beyond that might be received on the premises, signals from the equipment itself, and very low frequency audio signals, almost seismographic, from the building and its vibrations. All of these areas feed into each other. In addition, I'm using the blog heavily, and putting up work daily, including music/sound improvisation, either electronic from the environment, or from playing various instruments, somethings I've always done.
KD: You've had an extensive career in creating virtual and internet-based art; a visitor to your personal website can track the digital evolution through sprawling texts and graphics. What do you think are important elements to growing and sustaining virtual worlds?
AS: Are they necessary to either grow or sustain? I'm not sure; my own interest is in seeing and using them as an incredibly supple environment for phenomenological or structure experimentation, experimentation that can be carried on world-wide through logins and projections. There are also performative/choreographic possibilities that don't exist elsewhere, and there's a fuzzy and uneasy line between real and virtual in this regard; I've participated in a number of mixed-reality performances where imitations or 'anti-imitations' serve to unite or disunite different modes of being. But your question seems to ask about the sociological, even corporate aspects of these worlds, and that's something I don't address in general, at least not within my work itself.
KD: You mentioned an interest in bringing mortality to virtual reality games such as Second Life. What would you say are the biggest challenges of creating chronic illness or death in a virtual environment, particularly when default forms appear healthy and able?
AS: Well, default forms can also be disabled/disabling; our own default forms in the 'real' world include the disasterous pull of gravity. The older MUDs all had wounding, hunger, thirst, and death as part of their characterologies. By the way, I don't see Second Life as a game - it's not; there's no teleology, nothing to be lost or gained. You socialize, you build if you want, you have virtual sex or conversations if you want, you experiment. But there's no winners or losers and no rules except those of the virtual world physics which can be violated for that matter. That's an important distinction; this isn't a form of WOW or anything like that.
It's easy to represent chronic illness, etc. in SL; the difficulty is creating an uncomfortable rupture with the virtual, where the viewer is brought up short, just as s/he might have been with the early Jodi work. We slid almost flawlessly 'around' the web, links, clever/meme videos, and so forth; it's more difficult to get caught or snared in sorrow or wounding - to realize there are humans behind even the bots. As usual, people working sexually in SL know all of this already, know what's at stake, because they're potentially directly aroused and/or emotionally involved in what they do; that's an odd kind of honesty that slithers away elsewhere, I think. My own thinking wants to constantly bring the virtual up short - and bring the 'real' up short as well, since these are deeply entangled, inseparable; the body is always already an inscriptive and abject body, the body always hurtles towards death, Wired magazine notwithstanding.
KD: Part of your work involves the use of 'altered' motion capture technology. How do you do this, and how do digital forms coincide with real bodies?
AS: They don't coincide; the mapping can be 1/1 or many/1 or many/many etc. So there's a looseness involved; what occurs is a dialog among performers, software, hardware, and avatar representations. A single avatar on screen may already be 'inhabited' or 'produced' by more than one performer - four seems the maximum that makes any sense. So mocap nodes are reassigned, usually through some variant topological mapping, for example, dividing the body map into maps, inverting maps, separating the fundamental node, the base from the rest, creating torsion by rotations that in real life would tear a body apart, and so forth. If possible, the software might also be set differently, for example to allow enormous elasticity of the avatar body, so the whole mapping doesn't blow apart, collapse. In addition to all of this, it was possible at the Virtual Environments Lab at West Virginia University, to rewrite the software itself, creating 'behavioral' or dynamic filters that were employed between the real movements of the performers, and their data-base representations; these filters acted like graphics filters, changing the mapping on the fly. The result was a series of amazing movement-files - avatars could move through themselves, partly invert, move at inordinately high speed, and so forth - things 'real' bodies can't do. So all of this was then fed into Blender, for abstract avatar mapping; into Poser for representational mapping; and into Second Life, for live performance with one or more avatars. And then there might be performance or dance-work utilizing the results as a springboard for real-life, real- time choreography; I've worked with Foofwa d'Imobilite and Azure Carter, my partner, for a long time on this. The final results might be anything from video to stills to live performance, to mixed-reality performance, just about anything. Recently, with Mark Skwarek, some of this as been brought into augmented reality as well.
Thanks so much for the interview, Alan! For the latest information on Alan Sondheim's projects, be sure to visit his Eyebeam page and personal website.

text: BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- In considering the slow economic recovery and persistent stagnant wages, it is surprising to find that negotiating your salary can still lead to a significant increase in overall lifetime earnings -- and that it may be exactly the right time to apply this information. "The good news is that though the economy is still sluggish, it is recovering," says Abby Euler, general manager of Salary.com. "There are many key indicators that it may be time to start thinking about negotiation again." Research by Salary.com showed that a 4% raise every three years can increase total earnings by more than $1 million in a lifetime. The negotiating can still be daunting, especially in this economy. Last month, The Wall Street Journal reported the economy has been growing at only 2% -- well below the pre-recession average of 3.5%. With labor demand low, employers have not been under any real pressure to raise wages on their own. Even several years after the Great Recession, wages have not kept pace with inflation. In fact, the average hourly wage for a worker not in the government sector or working in a supervisor position came to a pitiful $8.77 an hour when adjusted for price increases, according to data from the U.S. Labor Department. This has led many in the workforce to feel dispirited about the prospect of asking for a wage increase. "Workers feel like they have absolutely no bargaining power," Robert Mellman, an economist at JPMorgan Chase ( JPM), told WSJ. At the same time, workers also do not feel there are better job options. In June, only 1.6% of employed Americans quit their jobs -- compared with 2% to 2.2% annually at pre-recession levels. This may explain why 41% of Americans didn't attempt to negotiate for a raise at their current job or negotiate salaries when offered a new position. Research by the economists at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco also found that during the past three recessions since 1986 -- and in particular, during the 2007-09 downturn -- companies opted to lay off some of their workforce and keep other workers at current wages rather than cut wages across the board.

Behavioural family therapy (BFT) or cognitive behavioral family therapy is a form of family therapy based on the application of the principles of cognitive behavior therapy and learning theory to the family setting.
Based on the work of John Gottman, Albert Ellis, Albert Bandura problems are seen as the result of operant conditioning that reinforce negative behaviors within the family's interpersonal social exchanges that extinguish desired behavior and promote incentives toward unwanted behaviors. This can lead to irrational beliefs and a faulty family schema.

Blue On Water is a restaurant, bar and boutique hotel located on Water Street, the oldest commercial street in North America. Much like the street itself, both façades have changed over time while the essence of the street and the business have remained the same. This year marks a decade in business for owners Jason and Leslie Brake and they're ready to celebrate. They've been busy with renovations (think inviting copper tones), a highly anticipated addition to their kitchen team, and injecting additional doses of luxury into their 11-room boutique hotel. I recently stopped in for a taste, a tour and a chat.

Did you know that Canada's Favourite Bar is right here in St. John's, Newfoundland? Air Canada's enRoute Magazine and Rickard's Beer teamed up for the #SAYCHEERS campaign, a national search for the most loved bar in Canada. Bar patrons across the nation voted for the Top 100, supporting their favourite drinking establishments in each province and territory, and when it was all done, O'Reilly's Irish Newfoundland Pub was #1 in Canada!

The journey to Woodstock Colonial Restaurant is an experience in itself. Located in Paradise, a picturesque town just twenty minutes outside of St. John's, the drive offers dazzling panoramas of Conception Bay that beg you to pull over and take it all in. The Woodstock Colonial has long been heralded as one of the premier fine dining experiences in the greater St. John's area. While the establishment itself dates back to 1927, the general area has welcomed hungry travellers since the 1800's!

A day spent on the water is a quintessential experience when travelling to Newfoundland & Labrador. Set sail from St. John's harbour and witness the world's largest concentration of humpback whales, 12,000 year old icebergs and elegant seabirds feeding in our coastal waters. Iceberg Quest's award winning tour has been departing from St. John's and Twillingate showcasing Newfoundland's unique charm for over a decade. I sat down down with Captain Barry Rogers for an unforgettable hour as he regaled me with tales of his childhood on the water, the beginnings of Iceberg Quest and a sneak peek of some of their new product offerings for 2014.

The theatre doors open and the crowd of people waiting in the small lobby are allowed to take their seats. There is a sense of anticipation as audience members whisper to one another. The only things on stage are six wooden chairs stacked to resemble a solitary tree. Perhaps each chair represents a different branch of Al Pittman's work that, when stacked together, create one solid play, With Cruel Times in Between.

The Anchor Room Bar is packed with people, every seat is taken. The waitress' twist and weave around tables like a snake through the jungle grass, serving cocktails to the patrons who wait with excited anticipation. Being told the show is a "must see" while visiting Gros Morne, National Park they are ready to experience it for themselves. The band members of Anchors Aweigh gather together behind the crowd to do their ritual shot before taking to the stage. They smile at each other, this is what they love to do. The smiles grow bigger as they walk on stage and pick up their instruments, the crowd can't help but smile too. You can see their passion for music as they play. The audience can feel it.

Explore the past, experience the beauty. Hiding between the great Tablelands and the vast Atlantic Ocean sits quiet Trout River. While proclaiming itself to be Newfoundland's best kept vacation secret, a more accurate account would be Canada's best kept secret. This destination should be on every travellers list when exploring Newfoundland. Situated 86km from Deer Lake International Airport, in the glorious Gros Morne National Park, it is a rare and beautiful find nestled within another rare and beautiful find.

Watching the sunset on a clear, calm night, its final rays shimmering on the bay waters. The glowing ball of orange disappearing behind the strong, rustic 500 million year old tablelands. It is hard not feel overwhelmed by the natural beauty of the scene. This unique sight can only be seen from the water, which is why you need to get out onto Bonne Bay in a boat.

A bus dropped us off at the side of the road where a small flag, set beside a narrow path that led into the forest, indicated the start of the trail. It was not a simple walking trail, there were some difficult parts, but it was beautiful. Halfway along the trail there was a lookout. I felt as though I was standing on top of the forest. All I could see were the tops of trees stretching out toward the open ocean in the distance. As I stood there catching my breath and taking in the beauty, I could almost have believed I was the only person on the planet....this is the chef hike at The Gathering Festival in Burlington Newfoundland

I woke up early, determined to get a fresh start on the day and take in as much of the beautiful coastline as possible. It was a gorgeous morning, and I was quite content to sit on a cozy rock and watch the sun scatter its rays across the water. And that's just what I did – until it was time for the main event: the food hike; the reason people flock from all over the world to the Roots, Rants and Roars festival.

We are big fans of traditional Newfoundland music whether it be "I'se the Bye" or a song from the Northern Peninsula that we might never have previously heard. Neddy Norris Night is Theatre Newfoundland Labrador's popular musical night and it takes on a different flavour depending on who is the musical director that year.

Theatre Newfoundland Labrador (TNL) is back in Cow Head and they are performing several new plays for the summer 2012 season. We recently saw "The Fly Fisher's Companion" and would recommend this play to anyone since although it deals with salmon fishing, its main theme is the changing face of friendship. The play follows Wes (played by Michael Chaisson) and Don (performed by John Dartt) as they gear up to go salmon fishing from a cabin they built together many years ago.

For 60 years now, children in the United States have dressed in costume on Halloween night and gone door to door collecting coin donations for UNICEF. Since 1994, Key Club has joined in the fun Trick-or-Treating for UNICEF, a worldwide organization that, like Kiwanis, is dedicated to serving children's needs. Over the years, Key Clubbers—with help from Builders Clubs—have raised nearly $5 million for iodine deficiency programs worldwide, HIV and AIDS programs in Kenya and Swaziland and, most recently, Operation Uruguay: Protecting the Rights of Children.
Join Key Club in their effort to raise $1.5 million for Operation Uruguay by Trick-or-Treating for UNICEF. Builders Clubs and Key Clubs should receive their collection boxes in September. Order any extra collection boxes by e-mailing Kiwanis member services, or by calling 1-317-875-8755, ext. 411 (Worldwide) or 1-800-KIWANIS, ext. 411 (US and Canada).

Good morning! I trust you've digested the pair of financial stories. Rich Sandomir does a tremendous job on A1 of the New York Times detailing the perks owners could receive for a minority ownership stake, from quality time with Mr. Met to access to luxury suites that would otherwise be occupied by Lady Gaga. And the New York Post reported that the Mets will shut down a minor league team in the Gulf Coast League to save some money.
Short take on these: the Sandomir story lays bare just how little the team has to offer a prospective minority buyer. The Post story reinforces that while the Mets are cutting costs at the major league level, they are also cutting costs below, not reinvesting that money. Nothing new, per se, but both provide illuminating details about the crisis. Sandomir, in particular, is fantastic on those details.
But the big story yesterday was about the team's interest in Eric Young, Jr. The rumored deal would send Justin Turner to Colorado.
Let's be clear: this is a win for the Mets if it happens. A simple comparison of skills makes this obvious.
Eric Young Jr.: ability to play second base, all three outfield spots at below-average levels, speed, patience
Justin Turner: ability to play second base, third base at below-average levels, small amount of power
Don't know about you, but I'll take the first set of skills over the second, especially given the team's lack of backup outfield options, and David Wright at third base.

Presidents of local community colleges are generally paid less than their Cal State University counterparts, but still earn hundreds of thousands of dollars per year in salary and other benefits. | Main story: As CSU campus budgets drop, university presidents get big raises
The highest paid local college president is Mark Rocha of Pasadena City College. He was hired in July 2011 at a salary of $230,000. An automatic raise this year brought his salary to $235,000. According to Rocha's contract, his salary will continue to increase each year, reaching $265,000 in 2015.
Rocha was also paid a $15,000 one-time housing allowance upon his hiring.
Bill Scroggins, Mt. San Antonio College's president/superintendent, was hired in May 2011 at a salary of $225,000 per year. Scroggins does not receive automatic raises, but his contract includes a $10,000-per-year tax sheltered annuity.
Scroggins contract entitled him to be reimbursed for one-time actual moving costs, up to $3,500.
Geraldine Perri, Citrus College's superintendent/president, is paid less than both Scroggins and Rocha, at $215,000, but automatic raises approved by Citrus College's board in July will greatly increase her salary during the next four years. In 2016, Perri will be paid $251,000.
In addition to her salary, Perri also receives a $40,000-per-year housing allowance.
Teresa Dreyfuss, Rio Hondo College's interim superintendent/president is paid the least among her local counterparts, earning $210,500 per year. She also receives a $5,000-per-year mileage allowance.
As is the case with CSU presidents, community college presidents are expected to participate in fundraising efforts.
"Fundraising is increasingly important to help us close the gap in our ability to provide programs and services for students," said Rio Hondo spokeswoman Susan Herney. Dreyfuss is expected to assist Rio Hondo's fundraising efforts, Herney said.
Scroggins' contract explicitly spells out his fundraising role at Mt. SAC, saying he "shall work closely with the College Foundation assisting in efforts to raise the level of giving to the College."
Perri's contract is more vague on fundraising, saying she will serve as the districts "primary liaison with governmental and community civic organizations, including but not limited to the Citrus College Foundation."
Rocha's contract does not spell out his role in Pasadena City College's fundraising efforts, but his most recent performance review includes a "revenue enhancement" section, which says he is expected to "increase annual fundraising revenue."

Dyson's rare homer not enough to save Davis, Royals
Right-hander allows seven runs over five-plus innings against Yankees
KANSAS CITY -- When Jarrod Dyson steps out of character and slams a three-run homer, the Royals had to figure this might be their night. It wasn't.
It belonged instead to the New York Yankees, who began their only visit of the year to Kansas City with an 11-6 victory over the Royals on Friday night with 24,521 fans at Kauffman Stadium.
The Yankees, with Lyle Overbay driving in five runs, won their third straight. They also presented Joe Girardi with his 500th victory as their manager.
The speedy Dyson is no stranger to the home run but, most certainly, it is a distant relative. In his Major League career, Dyson had hit precisely one home run, and that came on Sept. 27, 2010, in his 12th big league game and his 34th at-bat. It came off Minnesota pitcher Kevin Slowey.
Now, 148 games and 377 at-bats later, Dyson has his second home run.
This was a three-run smash that soared down the right-field line in the second inning against Yankees starter Phil Hughes. It came with Eric Hosmer, who walked, and Salvador Perez, who singled, on base after two strikeouts.
"I mean, anybody can take me out of the park these days," Hughes said with a laugh. "I don't really think about that part. These are professional hitters. He might be a little guy, but he's still dangerous."
Dyson's homer came at a great time for the Royals because, in the top half of the inning, the Yankees had struck for a 4-0 lead against Wade Davis.
"It's a little motivation to the pitcher, to the team, to everybody because we're back in it," Dyson said. "Down four and I hit a three-run blast and we're back in this thing."
The Yankees got two-run homers from Ichiro Suzuki and Overbay in the second inning.
"I left a couple of pitches up to some big hitters, and they hit it out of the ballpark, which is what they're supposed to do," Davis said.
The Yankees picked up another run in the fourth on Jayson Nix's walk and Overbay's double to center. A relay from Dyson to Alcides Escobar to Perez came within an inch or two of nailing Nix at the plate, but it was 5-3.
Not for long, though. In the Royals' fifth, Escobar and Lorenzo Cain each singled and both scored as Alex Gordon's long fly soared over left fielder Vernon Wells and bounced off the wall. Gordon was left at second, but the score was tied.
The Dyson home run seemed to be having an effect.
"That was a big blow to get us back into the ballgame," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "After giving up four, to get three of them back is huge. And then when Gordy got the big double to tie it up, you're thinking, 'OK, here we go.' But we just couldn't hold 'em."
Historically, Ichiro wears out the Royals (.365, 148-for-402 in his career) and his double in the sixth ignited a five-run inning for the Yankees. The first two hits got Davis out of the game.
"I made it look a lot harder than it should have been," Davis said.
Left-hander Bruce Chen took over with two on and nobody out.
"I'm just trying to get as many outs as I can," Chen said. "Obviously, I can't get three outs or get out of the inning with one pitch -- unless they make a triple play. What I'm trying to do is just make good pitches so I can get one out at a time, and I should've started with Overbay. They put me in a situation so I can get the lefty out, and I didn't do my job."
Overbay belted a run-scoring double, Chris Nelson a two-run single, Brett Gardner an RBI triple and Robinson Cano an RBI single.
From 5-5, it went to 10-5.
"Bruce just didn't have his good stuff today. It was the first [earned] runs he's given up all year long," Yost said.
Mike Moustakas homered to right field in the Royals' half of the sixth, his third blast in three games. It's the first time he's done that in his career.
But Moose was the Royals' last baserunner of the night. The Yankees' pitchers retired the last 11 batters in succession -- eight of them by strikeouts. Shawn Kelley fanned six of the seven batters he faced.
"I definitely wasn't trying to," Kelly said. "I was executing my pitches tonight and able to get ahead, and when you're 0-2, 1-2, you can get a little more picky with your location and go for it."
The Yankees picked up a ninth-inning run, and Dyson's home run was just a faded memory of a big night that might have been.
"It was a big one at the time, and unfortunately, we didn't get the win and that's what counts," Dyson said. "The home run doesn't matter if you don't get the win."

The Sitcom Sultan
Kelsey Grammer keeps riding the wave looking for ways to please his audience through TV, film and stage
(continued from page 5)
Growing up near Cocoa Beach, Florida, Grammer spent his spare time chasing waves—at Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale "and Boca had some nice breaks." But he discovered acting in high school and found the same thrill treading the boards as in riding a surfboard: "There was something about it—the energy, the magnificent connection."
Forty years later, Grammer is still riding the wave as an actor—despite the occasional wipeout. Professionally, there haven't been many spills. Grammer's career got its liftoff in 1984 in what was supposed to be a brief arc as a guest star on the classic sitcom "Cheers," as the very proper Dr. Frasier Crane. He ended up playing the character for 20 years, in 203 "Cheers" episodes, before effortlessly segueing into one of the most successful spin-off series of all time, "Frasier," for another 263 episodes. The latter show earned him a shelf full of Emmy and Golden Globe awards—and set a record by winning five consecutive Emmys as best comedy series.
But as he talks a few days before Thanksgiving, the storm clouds apparently already are forming about his latest series, "Boss," a one-hour drama that just finished its second season on the Starz pay-cable network. Asked whether there would be a third season of the show, for which he won a Golden Globe in its first year, Grammer is politic as he says, "They're talking about it. In my mind, the show is designed to be five or six seasons long in its telling. But there are other options if it turns out the show won't go on. We have another idea of how to button things up so the show comes to a natural end."
Here's hoping that's true—because two weeks later, Starz announced that the show had been cancelled. A two-hour movie—to wrap up the storylines—was being discussed. Which is no less than Mayor Tom Kane deserves. The character at the center of "Boss," Kane—played by Grammer—is the mayor of Chicago, a man who wields what seems to be vast political power over the far-ranging precincts of his city. He's a natural politician and a raging megalomaniac, who also happens to be suffering from a degenerative brain disease that leaves him prone to hallucinations. He's slowly losing the ability to hide the fact that he can't tell what's real from what's not and spends precious time chasing unorthodox and experimental remedies—or trying to cover up his illness.
But that doesn't stop him from running his city like an iron-fisted dictator. By the last episode of the second season, he had faked an assassination attempt on himself (to buoy his poll ratings), all but crushed the career of the journalist who threatened to discredit him and nearly let his wife suffocate before bringing her back from the brink to remind her that her life is in his hands.
Even before that, however, Kane was never afraid of erring on the side of Tom Kane. Every city project seemed to line his pocket in some way, even as he dallied with women who weren't his wife while letting his drug-addicted daughter go to jail (briefly) for the political message it would send. Early on in the series, Kane nearly tore a man's ear off for failing to hear and act upon his wishes—and then put that same ear down a garbage disposal when the severed appendage was later offered to him as a trophy.
Is there anything this guy wouldn't do?
"Nothing," Grammer says, with mock gruffness—a gravel and gravity in his voice. It's a long way from the elitist tones of Frasier Crane, or Grammer's own voice, for that matter, which is higher and lighter than you'd expected. "What's great about playing Tom Kane is that he's ruthless and capable of anything," Grammer continues. "He's always aware of what must be done to maintain power, and he's willing to do it. The kind of mind he has is usually five or six moves ahead of everybody else. I think I understand his nature.
"If I have the luxury of exploring him more fully, I want to find that something in him that redeems him, something nobody knows about. I want to find that belief, on some deep level, that belief that he's doing the world some good. His final curtain should finally reveal that in some way, so the audience senses that losing him is truly a loss."
Grammer isn't saying whether that finale would include the sight of Kane finally succumbing to his debilitating condition. But Grammer has enjoyed the irony in playing a man of great power who finds himself at the mercy of something he can't control: his own body.
"He's now faced with something bigger," Grammer says. "Death has come knocking earlier than expected. And it is uncompromising."
Playing the character meant toggling between states of consciousness: the alert, eagle-eyed, supersensitive professional and the man slipping into dementia, who cringes or shouts at imaginary figures and nightmarish environments—until he is yanked back to reality. It's a tricky line to walk.
"Even if you're playing an insane person, there's something sane to connect to," Grammer notes. "What's great about Tom Kane is he does care deeply about Chicago—and about his place in it, his place among the men who have run Chicago. There's something redeeming in that.
"Of course, he tends to believe that what's good for Chicago should also be good for him. He believes that having him in charge is what Chicago needs."
"Boss" was not an obvious choice for Grammer—nor Grammer for "Boss," at least not based on his track record for the preceding 25 years or so. He did, after all, play Frasier Crane on NBC for 20 years—and then followed that up three years later with "Back to You," a Fox sitcom that cast him as the vainer, nastier, shirtchasing Chuck Darling. Chuck was a TV news anchorman forced to put his tail between his legs and return to his old station in Pittsburgh, after a spectacular flameout in Los Angeles. There, he discovers that his ex-flame coanchor (played by Patricia Heaton, just out of "Everybody Loves Raymond") is the mother of an adolescent daughter he didn't know he had.
"That show was like the greatest gig ever," Heaton says. "Kelsey is a really great guy who is really efficient. He works really quickly. My kids didn't even know I was working on a show; I was always home. I was sad when that show was canceled."
The series earned some strong reviews—and featured a cast that included such rising stars as Josh Gad and Ty Burrell, as well as veteran comic actor Fred Willard. The zing and the drive came from the rivalry and attraction between Grammer and Heaton, in a show created by the same veterans of "Frasier" who went on to create "Modern Family." But a strike by the Writers Guild of America that started in November 2007 shortened the series' exposure just after its premiere—and when the strike ended in February 2008, the series barely got the chance to play out its first season before being canceled.
"I thought that show had a good head start but unfortunately not," Grammer says with a shrug.
He's quick to admit that his next series, ABC's "Hank," about a disgraced Wall Street executive forced to go live with his family in his wife's rural home town, deserved its quick dismissal in 2009: "It was not a good show. We never found the right tone or rhythm."
So he began discussions with "Boss" creator Farhad Safinia about the possibility of a drama.
"I said I was interested in an updated King Lear," Grammer says. "We thought about Washington, D.C., as a sort of central power place—but then we gravitated to Chicago. It's possible for a man with big shoulders and vision to leave an impression on a city like Chicago. D.C. is a lot more amorphous; Chicago is like a fiefdom, a minor kingdom. And there's definitely something Shakespearean about this character."
Grammer was classically trained at the Juilliard School and had worked extensively in Shakespeare (including a limited run of Macbeth on Broadway in 2000). But he still had to convince Starz executives to consider him for the part.
Actor Martin Donovan, who played Tom Kane's right-hand man in the first season of "Boss" (until Kane had him killed because of a betrayal), says, "Anybody who has played the same character for 20 years—well, I don't know that I'd be able to shake it off. You get into patterns and rhythms. But when he was being Tom Kane, I'd have to remind myself that he had this background that he never got to show as Frasier."
"I thought it was time to surprise people," Grammer says. "Frasier was a successful character; now I wanted to go do the flip side."
People make the mistake, says David Hyde Pierce, of assuming Grammer is like his most famous character. "Watching 'Boss,' I realized that Kelsey is a lot closer to that character than he was to Frasier," says Pierce, who won multiple Emmy Awards playing Frasier's brother Niles, and set a record by being nominated in each of the series' 11 seasons.
"Kelsey is a very powerful guy. And he carries that power easily. It shows what a great actor he is. Frasier so frequently was confused, powerless, befuddled. Kelsey, however, is a leading actor with an incredible gift for character."
Donovan adds, "He's powerful—but he's not intimidating. He was absolutely a strong presence. But he doesn't wield it, or power-trip people. The guy has got a tremendous emotional reserve. He had a lot of pain and anguish in his life—so he has a lot to draw on emotionally. The role of Kane required emotional, volcanic volatility. You can see that in his work. But that's what we do as actors—draw from our own emotional history."
"Frasier is definitely more of a stretch for me than Tom Kane," Grammer says. " When I walk in to work at 'Boss,' I just learn my lines and I'm available. With Frasier, there was a lot more artifice; a lot more of it was about getting from laugh to laugh. Originally, in 'Cheers,' Frasier provided hit-and-run comedy: Get on with a bit of energy and get off. On 'Cheers,' Frasier was a satellite character. But on 'Frasier,' he was the center and everyone else was a satellite. And Frasier reaped a lot of what was funny about them; he was used to reflect what was going on. His reactions allowed the audience to participate in the show with him."
But the well-meaning snob, the persnickety psychotherapist living in a world that seldom meets his expectations—that was only a character, not a reflection of the actor. "I'm not as affected as Frasier," Grammer says. "I don't live in that world. I've got a lot of issues. I guess I'm more emotional than Frasier. Frasier is a little more bogged down in the minutiae. Tom Kane lives big and I've always been that way. I try to live and love fully, with my whole heart."
It extends to his relationship with his castmates. Though they now live on opposite coasts, he and Pierce see each other and talk regularly—and make a point of catching the other on Broadway, when one of them has a show.
Pierce noted, "When you're together for 11 years on a show, especially at the ages we were, a lot of life happens. People get married, sometimes many times. It was a very close company. I feel particularly close to him, like a brother. I adore him."
Grammer had graduated from Juilliard (where he was classmates with Mandy Patinkin) and was waiting tables and looking for work in New York, when he had a revelation.
"I realized that, as long as I was waiting tables, I wasn't an actor—so I quit my job," he recalls. "I said I was no longer a waiter and I got a job acting two days later. I've worked ever since."
He put in a number of years working in regional theaters, then began working regularly in New York, on and off-Broadway. In fact, he was understudying the original production of Hurlyburly on Broadway, while rehearsing for the first workshop production of Stephen Sondheim's Sunday in the Park with George, when he got the call to read for "Cheers." Grammer admits that he looked down his nose at the idea of doing television, when the role of Frasier was first offered. "I got called in for what they call a personality read, and a couple of weeks later they flew me out to California and gave me the job. I was such a snooty kid about working in TV. I thought, 'Dear God, this could ruin my career.' "
Landing the role of Frasier Crane in "Cheers" seems like just one in a series of cosmic dominoes that had to topple exactly so in order to propel Grammer into what is probably the defining role of his life. For starters, "Cheers," the series he joined at the start of its third season (as the new romantic interest for Shelley Long's Diane Chambers and romantic rival for Ted Danson's Sam Malone), barely survived its first season; it was nearly canceled, despite strong critical support.

should be working now. Please let us know if you still have problems
Ive gotta ask: Between you and me, where did you hear the no call back re tutors? And how solid do you think that is?? I am completely dumfounded by that, WIAF.
How's your back coming along?
Can I please RSVP for 2 to the Orange county event? My email is email@example.com. Thanks, Michael
I know you are busy so I'll keep this short. Have been to a couple of Pali games this fall and there is a kid named Austin Applegate, a fullback, and he is a stud. I think he's worth a look and maybe has already has had one. Don't know anyone in our recruitment program so thought I'd pass it on to you as a well connected Pali alum. Nice article in this weeks Post (11/1). Online, it's Palisadespost.com. Maybe silly but this guy has almost single handedly turned the Dolphins program around this fall.
Nice to speak with you last night and meet your wife. And you can dance...who knew?
WIAF, Id like to RSVP for Feb 7. Craig Marshall. Can you email me at [email]email@example.com[/email]? THanks.
Hope I don't bore you with my occasional update on Pali football. There is pretty much nothing but good news. The new Coach, Perry Jones, is a hustler and I mean that in the good sense of the word. The whole atmosphere surrounding the program has changed. When I attended their first game this fall I bought a glossy sort of intro to Pali football program with great info on the team, but perhaps more importanatly, a ton of ads from the community and families of the players.
The cheerleaders and song girls were trained and organized wherein past years they pretty much just wandered around. Even the concessions were better. The team has a facebook page, a twitter account et. al. The team's part of the Pali Web page is excellant.
The Coach told each player that he had to come up with $200 for the team, though I know through a teacher friend that there were exceptions. He challenged the families and the kids to find a way. Go to your neighbors, mow lawns, sell cupcakes, whatever. The goal was $25K and I heard they came close. I only made it to 3 games, but it was once again fun. They ended 5 and 5 for the season, a great improvement over the past few years and will be playing Lincoln in the Div II playoffs this Friday night. Darn, I have a conflict. Big Game. Anyway it was a far better year for the Dolphins this year.

Hi Alex:
I checked Mountaingate CC for our annual SoCal Grid Club meeting and the news was all good.
I incur no charge hosting an event since I am a club member. There is a charge for food and drink. Since they have a bar we can make it "no host" or "host." If the latter, then we need contribution at the door from attendees. The food offered can be sliders, hot food of various kinds, all good. Again, we need some contribution.
There are two areas within M'Gate dining to hold the event: the first is called the "R Bar," which is the bar region. Its principal section can hold 40 persons legally, but there is an additional adjacent area that can hold probably 20 more. There are two flat screen TVs able to hold DVDs in the R Bar. In the alternative, we can also use the main dining room which can hold up to 150. Don't know whether the flat screens can be removed and transported to that area which is adjacent to the R Bar. But, of course, a portable screen if available can be used. It is a nice atmosphere...don't know if you have ever been at M'gate?
The woman I spoke to said it should be no problem setting something up in February, since tournaments are minimal at that time. She recommended either Monday or Tuesday or Friday night as good times for the Club.
Let me know your thoughts.
Best Regards,
DG (6bear6)
WIAF: Earlier this month in a thread started by Greg Richardson about being Bearish on the Bears you asked me to give my opinion either publicly in the thread or in a pvt msg to you if I wanted.
The bottom line is that my passion for Cal Football has gradually diminished over the past 3 seasons. Some if it has to do with the W/L record and the inconsistent passion the players seem to have for the game. The primary reason, however, is this. Despite being a donor, a former player, and a former season ticket holder when I lived in the Bay Area, I have been made to feel less and less a part of the Cal Football Family. This is primarily because of the policies instituted by JT regarding coverage and openess of the program and his disdain for fans who dare to question his decisions. I feel more like a distant uncle of the program who is tolerated only because he might send some dollars to the program.
It would be most interesting to see a survey with the question: Do you feel more a part of the Cal Football Family today than you did 3 years ago? I don't think Sandy would like the majority of answers to that question.
It seems to me that last fall sometime that you said Pali football would get a good surprise. Was that for this fall and is it still top secret? Or did I miss the surprise last fall?

In Deathly Hallows: Part 2?
As seen in this clip, when Harry has the vision of a woman standing by a Ravenclaw banner, he actually sees Rowena Ravenclaw. The article states that she is "Mentioned only". Also, as the only Founder ever pictured in the films, do we know what actress played her? -- Seth Cooper owl post! 14:42, July 25, 2011 (UTC)
- I saw the film today. When I compare the vision of Rowena Ravenclaw to the ghost of Helena Ravenclaw, there is a great similarity between them, so there is a great possibility that the same actress - Kelly Macdonald - has played both roles.
- Otherwise maybe Harry was mistaken, when he thought, he would have seen Rowena Ravenclaw, perhaps he saw in reality Helena Ravenclaw. Tom Riddle had spoken in the past to Helena, not to Rowena.
- But that is only my opinion and not a proof. Harry granger 21:46, July 31, 2011 (UTC)
- I was under the impression that the resemble each other because they are mother and daughter. Also, isn´t the banner actually a necklace Rowena wears. Helena didn´t.Rodolphus 17:00, August 1, 2011 (UTC)
- In the book, when Harry talks to the Grey Lady, he "recognized her as a ghost he had passed several times in the corridor, but to whom he had never spoken". Harry, in the films, has seen the Grey Lady several times, too: during the Start-of-Term feast in 1991, in the Transfiguration Classroom in 1992, in Gryffindor Tower in 1992. I think the possibility that Harry mistook Helena for Rowena can be safely excluded. While seeing the film, I also noticed the physical similarity between Rowena and Helena, perhaps they were played by the same actress? -- Seth Cooper owl post! 17:20, August 1, 2011 (UTC)
- Might I be allowed to upload a photo of Rowena from Deathly Hallows: Part 2? I request permission in this manner for, in times past, whenever I upload a photo it gets deleted soon afterward. The reasons for this, I do not know; the deleter of the picture has no explanation for me. However, I shall supply my information below, since I do not know how to do it during the image-uploading stage.
- It is of fair use, from a copyrighted film; a photograph; the film has indeed been released in other countries.
- The photo is from the film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, and it is of Rowena Ravenclaw, one of the four Founders of Hogwarts.
- The link to the high quality video is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKgPX4pheLY&feature=channel_video_title
Please, I do not know anymore that I can do. My photos always get deleted, and I do not know why. Can anyone explain this to me? Thank you. AlastorMoody 00:45, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
- This is the clip in which she appears: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjVfAG9TUkE&feature=channel_video_title
- I uploaded it a while ago. I always thought that was Helena, I don't know why he would be thinking about Rowena, considering he's met the Grey Lady before but not Ravenclaw herself.
- Though now that I go back and watch the scene after Voldemort's anxiety attack.... Is it possible that Harry mistook her for Ravenclaw since he saw the banner? Though you guys are probably right when you say she's Rowena.... AlastorMoody 03:12, October 20, 2011 (UTC)
- Seth, someone uploaded the picture of Rowena onto the Helena Ravenclaw page. I wasn't sure if it was official that that was indeed Rowena, so I'm leaving it to you whether or not it should be deleted. If it was a picture of Rowena, then it shouldn't be on the Helena page. AlastorMoody 23:18, December 9, 2011 (UTC)
Another wiki-relevant question is;
When we get a picture of Rowena Ravenclaw from the film, which ome should be used as the main image? Wizarding world or DH? I´d say the cards. If my memory is right, when Rowling identified the first headmaster, she said that the founders in the wizarding world are exactly how she imagined them.Rodolphus 17:34, August 1, 2011 (UTC)
- Despite Harry recognising the woman in the vision as Rowena Ravenclaw, in the credits, it says "Cast in order of appearance", after Bogrod, it says "Helena Ravenclaw", and right after that is Lucius Malfoy's name, with Narcissa and Draco following him. Should this be taken into account? The credits saying that she is Helena? Or should we listen to Harry and say that she's Rowena? Here's a picture:

- To Riku Replica's Princess: fl. means "flourished" (or so, to that effect) and therefore it means that she lived in the years spanning 993 to 1000, but was born before then and died thereafter. 188.8.131.52 23:26, June 21, 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you for the information. :)
- Oh, what... you want an apology??? Is that why you're pouting, big baby boo? 20:56, June 19, 2014 (UTC)
Do you think that we should create a seperate article on her statue? There is an article on the bust of her and one of the Slytherin statue.--Rodolphus (talk) 12:50, November 17, 2013 (UTC)

Date Climbed: Aug 5, 2007
|Climbed solo on a nice day. I missed out on the excitement by going downclimbers left off the ridge proper with some easy class 3 moves. I watched others hit the correct descent route. Tim, we'll have to go back and do it again with Paiute.

|Birthday Solo Hike...
Date Climbed: May 30, 2008
|This is a great route on a gentle mountain. A heavy snow year made things a little more interesting. I didn't think the downclimb was too bad...I'm a tall guy so I was able to descend facing outwards and just stretch my legs out to decent foot holds. There was a huge cornice accross the notch. The climbing above the notch was the hardest for me since there were several cornices that blocked the route and made it much more difficult. All in all a great way to spend a Birthday.

Date Climbed: Apr 22, 2007
|I wouldn't have tried that one solo without the class 3 rating. So thank you. But we should really bump this route to class 4 even though the only section is that "Notch" down-climb. Maybe I missed the best route, but finally found a way to the climber's (descender's) right of the overhang after checking 3 different possibilities. Scary solo. I want to check that one out again when the snow and ice melts. Maybe get Paiute in there too.

A PASSENGER killed when Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 crashed in Ukraine used to work in Blackburn.
Glenn Thomas, 49, worked in the town as a journalist at Granada's Blackburn office for two years in the mid-90s.
Mr Thomas, who was originally from Blackpool, was working as a media officer for the World Health Organisation in Geneva, and was on his way to an Aids conference in Australia.
He is one of at least nine British nationals known to be among those on board the Boeing 777-200, which is thought to have been shot down over war-torn Ukraine.
Carol Tapp was head of Granada's East Lancashire bureau, when it was based in Daisyfield, Blackburn, and was Glenn's boss for a couple of years.
She said: "He came to us in the mid-90s from local newspapers. He did a couple of years with us before moving to London with the BBC.
"He cut is teeth in East Lancashire and did some fantastic work while he was here, he was always out and about in the area.
"I had kept in touch with Glenn, I've got a daughter-in-law in Switzerland and he was going to get her an interview, but she didn't want to commute.
"He wasn't a pushy journalist, he was very gentle and he had a great way with people."
Mr Thomas worked on the Blackpool Citizen newspaper, a former sister publication of the Lancashire Telegraph, in the late 80s and early 90s, before his move to Blackburn.
Rob Underdown, a photographer who worked with Mr Thomas in Blackpool, said: "My memories of him are all good. He was that nice guy who always had the beaming smile even at midnight on deadline day.
"Glenn went on to be a journalist at the BBC and most recently his work for WHO which he enjoyed enormously.
"That was Glenn, always giving, always smiling, a happy man and a great friend. At 49 he had a great life ahead of him and will be missed by so many people."
Belinda Jenkins, a former colleague at the Blackpool Citizen, said: "He was a larger than life character and I never saw him without a beaming smile.
"He once worked at Buckingham Palace in the Press Office and ended up on the nationals.
"He had always kept in touch with me particularly at Christmas if he was back in Blackpool.
"He only recently lost his father. This is absolutely tragic."
Mr Thomas posted on Facebook on Thursday morning of a 'long day's journey into the night'. He took an Air France plane from Geneva to Amsterdam, where he connected to the MH17 flight from Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport, bound for Kuala Lumpur.
A spokesman for WHO said: "Glenn had been with WHO for more than a decade.
"Glenn will be remembered for his ready laugh and his passion for public health.
"He will be greatly missed by those who had the opportunity to know him and work with him. He leaves behind his partner Claudio and his twin sister, Tracey.
"Our deepest condolences go to his family, friends and colleagues at this time."

DeLAND, Fla. - City leaders and a DeLand animal shelter owner who was accused of animal mistreatment have reached an agreement to reopen the shelter, but city must be involved.
The Animal Rescue Konsortium had 135 animals, including 100 cats and 26 dogs were removed from the shelter two weeks ago after police received a number of calls reporting the animals were in danger because of horrible conditions.
The agreement states the owner won't be charged criminally and she can work with the city to reopen her shelter. But all animals seized in the rescue will stay at the shelters they are currently being kept at.
"I'm very happy with it," said shelter owner Maggie Hall. "The city finally decided we should sit down and talk about the situation instead of a wasteful expenditure of taxpayers' money."
At the hearing, officials said the shelter had too many animals stuffed into cages and not enough litter boxes. Veterinarians also found feces in the walls, maggots in the food bowls and in the kitchen where volunteers ate.
[PICS: Animals rescued from shelter | VIDEO: Local 6 at the scene]
But city officials said they felt she was trying to do the right thing and that things got out of hand with not enough staffing and costs to run the shelter.
"My heart was breaking knowing that these animals were in this condition for so long," said Karen Clark, who told Local 6 she had been complaining about the conditions for weeks under code enforcement cracked down.
Three homeless people who lived at the shelter and worked there in exchange were also ordered out. One of the workers took the stand on Monday, saying it was impossible for her to care for the animals by herself that she wasn't getting proper help.
The city attorney said the volunteers weren't properly trained and they testified that they had no training, just a love for animals.
The dogs and cats will be staying at five different volunteer shelters in Volusia county.

Bess Truman once famously quipped that her job as first lady entailed little more than sitting "quietly on the podium next to her husband" and making sure "her hat was on straight".
Times are different, of course, and while the position of first lady comes with no pay and no official responsibilities in most countries, a new fellowship programme developed by the Rand Corporation, the non-for-profit research organisation, is trying to change that. The programme, which is held at Rand's office in Arlington, Virginia, aims to help African first ladies and their staff develop analysis skills that will enable them to exert a bigger role in health and social policy across the continent.

Photo Gallery: Chino Superior Courthouse closing
CHINO - It was quiet at the Chino Superior Court on Friday afternoon, with only a trickle of people coming in and out, paying traffic tickets and other fines.
But no cases were being tried in the building's three courtrooms: The last case being tried there wrapped up on Christmas Eve, and the courthouse will shut its doors for the last time on New Years Eve.
"Once it started, we realized it definitely was (the final case), because all of the other cases there were continued or resolved," said San Bernardino County Deputy District Attorney Will Wooten. He tried that case, in which a male massage therapist was accused of sexual battery against a female customer.
"The week before Christmas, people started going on vacation. It was a matter of trying to resolve what we could."
The courthouse is being shut to partially plug a $13.5 deficit in the county court system's budget. The state court system has faced $1.14 billion in cuts in the past four fiscal years.
The Chino courthouse reviews, files and prosecutes between 5 and 6 percent of the criminal cases in the county. About 20,000 annual infraction cases will be divided up between the Rancho Cucamonga and Fontana courthouses, along with the 4,000 misdemeanor cases filed in Chino each year. The court's 700 annual felony cases will be handled in Rancho Cucamonga.
Three judges at the Rancho Cucamonga courthouse who had retired but continued to serve have been let go to make room for the Chino-based judges.
"The budget for the state is the problem, not the county," Wooten said.
"We were hoping the leaders, the politicians, the mayor, the City Council, would try to keep the courthouse open more than they really did. Unfortunately, the mayor came out and said `That's OK; we'll make it into a library."'
The library plan didn't turn out to be feasible and the building's fate remains up in the air.
Wooten has been a district attorney since 2001, and in Chino since 2007.
On Wednesday, he'll be moving back to the Rancho Cucamonga courthouse, with the rest of the district attorney's staff, where he originally started. He also got the new assignment he'd hoped for; the biggest inconvenience for him will be a commute 25 minutes longer.
"It worked out for me, but the court staff are the ones who bore the brunt of this."
The staff are being divided between locations as far-flung as the Joshua Tree/Morongo Basin courthouse.
Security guard Cynthia Keser worked at the courthouse for five years, running visitors through the metal detector and keeping an eye on who comes and goes from the building.
On Wednesday, "I'm going to Rancho, and my partner's going to Fontana," she said.
The staff heard over the summer that the courthouse would be closed down, but the advance warning hasn't made things easier.
"When you're doing a job you really like and enjoy coming to, it's like your heart being torn in two," she said.
The courthouse staff had a farewell lunch at a French/Basque restaurant in Chino three weeks ago, and shed a few tears then, she said.
"When you go to work, it's a life commitment," Keser said.
Keser also worried about the hardship for local residents, who will be driving to the Rancho Cucamonga courthouse starting on Wednesday, as will she.
"They threatened a protest, but I didn't see anyone protesting out there," she said.
An attorney in casual clothes gave Keser a farewell hug as she left the Chino courthouse for the last time.
"It's like losing a part of your family because we're all getting split up," she said.
"It was a great place to work and we'll really miss it and hopefully they'll reopen it one day," Wooten said.

EPD Needs Help Find Missing 11-Year-Old Evansville Boy, Caleb Christian – Updated
5:30 pm -Caleb has been found
Eleven-year-old, Caleb Christian, was last seen by his family in his home on Second Ave. last night at around 10 p.m. When his family woke this morning, the boy was missing. Because the family just moved to the area, his mother isn't sure where he could be but it is imperative that he is found quickly because he is prone to seizures and needs medication.
According to 14 WFIE,
Caleb is about 5'5, 116 pounds, with brown hair in a buzz cut. Officers say he could possibly be wearing a Spiderman hat, black hoodie with a white skull and writing on it, dark jeans, and black shoes. We're told he could have a bright orange bike with him.
If you have any information on where Caleb could be, please call 911 or 812-426-7331.

NFU urges smooth, transparent transition to Fair Trade framework
New interim executive director named for state brand committee
More Ag News
Not so long ago, Toni Guthrie couldnt run the distance of a city block. Now she's creating adventures.
Guthrie, now 33, started working out, making it a lifestyle. She loves it so much now that she is organizing an adventure race in North Platte -- a bike/run adventure.
Adventure races are the most fun way possible to exercise, she says. She has often gone to other towns to compete.
The one is called the Urban Cowboy adventure race. It is part of the Platte River Fitness Series. It begins at noon Saturday.
Teams will run, trek, bike and navigate their way in and around North Platte within an allotted time, finding checkpoints and meeting challenges.
Teams have to adjust their strategy as they go, deciding which checkpoints to go for so they can still make it back before time expires.
More distant, challenging checkpoints give teams the most points. Team challenges are catching tossed objects or helping a blindfolded teammate navigate a course. The challenge must be successfully completed before the racers can go on.
Sometimes they travel by foot, sometimes by bicycle. They carry a map and usually discuss strategy as they go.
Its a test of endurance, teamwork, coordination and thinking power, Guthrie said, in contrast to the tediousness of standard workouts.
Teamwork and navigation are key, she said.
So far, 40 2- and 3-person teams have signed up. Thats a nice number for the first time in North Platte, she said. Registration is open until midnight Monday, but last-minute racers can squeeze in by emailing Gutherie directly at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The cost is $30 per person. Check in is from 10-11:30 a.m. Saturday. A mandatory pre-race meeting is held at 11:30 a.m. There is a two-hour course and a four-hour course, and there are separate men, women and co-ed divisions.
The winners receive bragging rights plus a commemorative cowbell they can strap to the front of their bicycles, Gutherie said. All participants get a tee-shirt and free meal.
Proceeds benefit the development and maintenance of North Plattes hike/bike trails.
Gutherie said she was no athlete when she started. She did various sports terribly since high school.
But her mothers heart attack changed her. She said her mother seemed to be in pretty good shape and was eating right. After that heart attack, they make a pact to workout together.
It was tough, but once you get past the wall by competing against yourself, its fun, Gutherie said.
We worked our way up, she said. It got addicting. And these adventure races, they are the most fun.

MORE than 15 local families slept under the stars in the grounds of historic local National Trust property The Vyne as part of the Big Camping Weekend.
The sold-out event opened up the Tudor mansion's walled kitchen garden for the evening to visitors of all ages, supplying them with a BBQ evening meal and breakfast the next morning.
The camping weekend marked the official summer 2014 local launch of the National Trust's popular 50 Things to Do Before You're 11¾ campaign, which aims to get you and your family out and about exploring what the outdoors has to offer.
The charity hopes to get 200,000 kids playing outside this summer as part of its commitment to connect the 'cotton wool generation' with nature.
The Vyne's camping co-ordinator Amy Dobson said: "We were really excited about hosting our first Big Camping Weekend, and thankfully the predicted storms didn't appear, so the children and their parents were able to enjoy the balmy weather and sit around the campfire late into the evening."
The Vyne, at Sherborne St John, offers 32 of the campaign's 50 listed activities, including Pooh Sticks, damming a stream and making a home for a wild animal.
