Sen. Trent Lott's resignation next month has set off a game of political musical chairs among Republicans seeking to move up in their leadership ranks.
Lott (Miss.) announced Monday that he will retire from the Senate by the end of next month, vacating his post as minority whip, the second-ranking Republican. This set in motion a brief race to succeed him and as many as three more intramural contests for lower-level leadership positions among Republicans hoping for a steppingstone to greater prominence in the Capitol.
Depending on who ends up in which chair, the GOP leadership team could look almost identical to its current six-senator lineup -- or be dramatically skewed toward a much younger, slightly more conservative and much more confrontational group.
"I think there's an opportunity here for some new blood," said Sen. John Thune (S.D.), 46, who was elected in 2004 and is openly considering several spots.
At this early juncture, three positions are secure. Sen. Jon Kyl (Ariz.), the No. 3 GOP leader, will move up to Lott's job as minority whip without opposition, according to interviews with senators and aides. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) and Sen. John Ensign (Nev.), chairman of the party's political campaign committee, are set.
But with Kyl abandoning his post as Republican conference chairman (the person in charge of party message operations), the most open warfare is taking place among Sens. Lamar Alexander (Tenn.), Richard Burr (N.C.) and Kay Bailey Hutchison (Tex.), who want that job. The result of that contest will determine the number of other leadership spots up for grabs.
Hutchison, the only woman in Republican leadership since 2001, holds the chair of the Policy Committee, considered the fourth-ranking slot.
Few of the dozen Republican aides and senators interviewed would talk on the record about the secret-ballot vote scheduled for Dec. 6, but all handicapped the races.
Hutchison, 64, elected in 1993, is selling herself as a stay-the-course leader who provides diversity in the otherwise all-white, all-male team. Her contention is that the current leadership team has done a sound job of tying the chamber in knots and thwarting Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.).
But Hutchison is battling detractors who say she has one eye on the Senate and another on the Texas governor's mansion, which she has openly talked about seeking when the job comes open in 2010.
Alexander, 67, who lost a bid for minority whip to Lott by one vote last year, projects a conciliatory image of someone who has worked with Democrats and can bridge political divides. "What the Senate and the conference need more than anything right now is people committed to getting it done," said Tom Ingram, Alexander's top aide. "You can't pigeonhole Lamar."
Then there's Burr, 52, who is running with the backing of a number of Republicans elected in 2002 and 2004. They have been the most aggressive members of the minority, younger guns in search of confrontation with Reid and less conciliation.
If Hutchison wins Kyl's current job, her policy chairmanship would be open. The job includes a large staff and a wonkish agenda. The post would immediately attract Sen. John Cornyn (Tex.), 55, who was elected in 2002. Other potential aspirants include Thune, who might make a late bid for conference chair.
A bid by Cornyn for policy chairman could open up his current position as vice chairman of the conference, the deputy messenger for the GOP. Most believe that opening would be filled by someone who identifies with the younger rabble-rousers, particularly Sen. Jeff Sessions (Ala.) or Burr if he were to lose the fight for conference chairman.
But there is one potential scenario in which the leadership team ends up little changed: Alexander thwarts Hutchison for the No. 3 post and she remains in her spot as policy chair, leaving Cornyn in place as well.

I had Botox about just about 8 days ago and I have small pimple like spots in the injection site. The nurse likes to use a fresh needle for each injection site so used about 6 needles and all were sterile and in packaging. There was no cross contamination. I've been applying witch hazel to these spots but why have I reacted like this? Incidentally I'm very pleased with the result. This was the first time I've had Botox I'm just a bit miffed about having these red pimples. Thanks for any advice

Pimples after Botox
I have never seen pimples or red bumps persist on my patients unless there is a bruise which is rare. Was there powder on the nurse's gloves that then got innoculated in the skin and caused the bumps? They should go away on their own, but see a dermatologist.

For two decades, Miami lawyer Lynn Washington crafted a reputation as a staunch advocate for low-income residents and a legal expert in affordable housing.Wow, is this disheartening.
But now, he's facing prison time — for looting more than a half million dollars in money aimed at revitalizing Miami's inner city.
Washington, 55, recently pleaded guilty to stealing more than $520,000 from New Urban Development, an affiliate of the Urban League of Greater Miami. The charge: first-degree grand theft.
Under the plea deal, Washington must come up with the first restitution payment of $100,000 by Jan. 7. If he cannot make the payment, a Miami-Dade judge will send him to prison for five years.
If Washington, who has voluntarily resigned from the legal profession because of the misconduct, pays back chunks at regular intervals, his prison time will be reduced. If he pays it all back within several months, Miami-Dade prosecutors will allow him to remain under house arrest for two years, with an extra three years of probation.
Lynn had built a reputation over a lifetime of service to the community and civic engagement in a wide range of local causes -- and all of that blown for a measly half million held in trust?
Here's the kicker:
Exactly why Washington stole the money, and what he spent it on, remains a mystery. The lawsuit does not detail what project the money was intended for.It's a messed up world we live in sometimes, huh?

ATLANTA (AP) - Republican lawmakers in the state Senate have selected Sen. Butch Miller of Gainesville as caucus chairman.
The move came Thursday as GOP lawmakers met in McRae.
Another member of the Senate from northeast Georgia, Steve Gooch of Dahlonega, was named caucus secretary.
The group also nominated Sen. David Shafer of Duluth to serve as president pro tempore.
The entire Senate chamber, including Democratic lawmakers, gets to vote on the president pro tempore, which is the top-ranking lawmaker in the Senate. Since the GOP has a nearly two-thirds majority, their candidates are virtually guaranteed victory.
The caucus also selected Sen. Ronnie Chance of Tyrone as GOP majority leader and Sen. Cecil Staton of Macon as majority whip.

When This Dad Asked For a Costco Birthday Cake, He Was Not Expecting Such a Punny Response
We see what you did there.
When reddit user s2kd* asked her dad what he wanted for his birthday, her low-key pops responded, "A cake from Costco."
Rather than settling on your average buttercream situation, s2kd got her father a cake of Costco instead.
The cake comes complete with exit signs, on fleek Costco branding, and a receipt that reads "happy birthday." Nice touch.
No word yet on how the birthday boy responded, but we bet he was positively tickled. Let's just hope it tasted good.

Eye of the Beholder: Alfredo Angulo
June 8th was filled with many fights with noticeable names, both on HBO and Showtime. One of the entertaining brawls that really caught my eye was the match-up between Erislandy Lara and Alfredo Angulo. A fight that I didn't foresee going the way it did.
I figured Lara would dominate being the slicker fighter and Angulo being the come straight forward brawler. Angulo did what he was suppose to, but with just a lot more added body work.He was coming straight for the inside with vicious body shots. Lara would catch Angulo with a combo before he made his destination to the inside of Lara.
Angulo would down Lara twice. Erislandy Lara would touch canvas not once but twice for the first time in his career.
Remember those combos I mentioned earlier of Lara catching Alfredo Angulo on Angulo's way in. Well that would be the reason for Lara's TKO victory. All of a sudden when Angulo looked like he was going to pull off the upset, Angulo turned his back in the 10th round due to an eye injury. It looked like a broken orbital bone.
Now to elaborate more on this type of boxing injury.
Even though this was an awesome match worthy of a rematch, Alfredo Angulo may had suffered a career ending injury. Hopefully I am wrong. An orbital fracture in the case like a brawler like Angulo usually forces these types of boxers into retirement. Recent cases that come into my mind would be Antonio Margarito and Lamon Brewster.
Yes it will heal where a fighter may think he can perform at a way in which he did before the injury, but reality is the fighter will never be the same. Alfredo Angulo is not a defensive fighter and you can't just train him to add a great defensive strategy to his arsenal. You can't teach this "Dog" new tricks.
If Angulo does fight again against a well known opponent he will be very vulnerable to re-injuring his eye.
As much as I love the sport and the great fighters that come with it, I would not want to see them ruin themselves for the same love which they have more of for being a professional in the fight game.
It's a sad truth, but injuries like these are hard to recover from. I hope I am wrong and this injury is not as serious as it looked and once again we can see the fight in this "Dog" Alfredo Angulo.

My 3 yo ds has recently taken to not eating at all. I know, intellectually and from experience, that 90% of kids won't starve themselves. I'm probably just being worked over by my very smart and mischievious little darling. I'm just looking for opinions because I'm not sure how firm to be. We are not a family who can afford to waste food. I try very hard to provide a balanced and nutritious diet that is also tasty and appealing to a family where everyone craves sweets and junk food. We have a limited food budget and I do my best to get healthy things with our money.
Lately ds will drink 3 or 4 cups of whatever (water, juice, milk, smoothie etc) without eating anything on his plate. I tend to be a big drinker myself and I clearly remember being miserable as a kid ebcause my parents witheld drinks from me until I ate all my food, and I remember being really thristy and not allowed to drink anything. So I really hesitate to withold his drinks. Also, we season our food well and also eat a lot of spicy foods, so it seems kind of mean not to let him have water at least. But he doesn't eat!
As an example, up until recently a typical breakfast for him could be: 2 eggs over easy, a slice of toast with butter and jelly, 2 glasses of milk, a whole clementine (sometimes 2) and a piece or 2 of bacon. Lunch could be a pb&j sandwich, a piece of fruit or some canned pineapple or peaches (usually he would eat half a can), a couple glasses of juice (1/2 juice 1/2 seltzer water) and some cheese. Usually about 2 decently thick slices. Dinner is always a meat, a veggie, and a starch of some kind, and he usually would eat seconds of something. Again 2 or 3 glasses of drink. We also offer dessert if he ate a decent amount of dinner and that can vary from straight up junk food (cake and ice cream) to fresh fruit salad, depending on what's on hand and what we're in the mood for. He also eats a morning snack (usually fruit and crackers with spread--hummus or cream cheese or nutella) an afternoon snack (Annie's cheese bunnies or fruit snacks) and an evening, before-bed snack (almost always bread and peanut butter.)
I've never really pushed the food issue because I've never had to. Both of my chidlren have always been good eaters and if they weren't a couple days of sticking mroe closely to our schedule and cutting down on grazing (which in our house inevitably leads to bad nutrition as I dole out handfuls of cheese crackers all day) would fix it. now it seems like ds just drinks nonstop and doesn't eat. About Thanksgiving time he started saying that his tummy hurt. At the time we thought it was just to get out of bed because he would say x made his tummy hurt but then turn around and ask for y or z. Lately though he complains of stomachaches mroe frequently and has also all but stopped eating. Today he ate half a banana, a frruit snack thingy, and about half a bbq pork sandwich. Oh and a few bites each of potato salad and coleslaw. Now he is eating a piece of candy that I had promised him that he just now conveniently remembered. I don't think he is getting enough nutrition eating like this. He and his sister each have an 8 oz straw cup which was intended to be only for the car (both kids drink fine from a regular cup). Somehow they have migrated into the hose and are carry-me-around-and-fill-me-up-all-day-mommy cups. While I may only fill dd's cup every other day (and then only because I feel it needs rinsing and fresh water or juice, not because it's empty) I refill ds's cup with juice and seltzer water or milk at least 4 times a day, not to mention the times he refills it himself with tap water. I cut the milk out, thinking that it was filing him up. No change. I give him only ONE cup of actual juice a day and the rest of the time put only a splash of juice in with his water or seltzer water. So what do I do? I would be only with letting him not eat but he is cranky and overtired. Since this has started he has taken to sleeping 16-18 hrs in a single day. Going to bed at 9 PM, sleeping until 10 th next morning and still taking a three hour nap. His little sister sleeps less than he does! I am beginning to be concerned taht something else is going on here.
We have had some stress lately and he has anxiety and sensory issues which are exacerbated by anxiety, so I thought of the possibility that he is seeking the oral stimulation from sucking on his straw cup all day. He also chews it (and everything else) constantly. We are trying to get him in with an OT and into play therapy, both on advice of the pediatrician, but that is still several weeks out. He tells me 3 bites into his meal that his stomach hurts. I'm wondering if he has a gluten allergy or something, i
don't know??? We laready know that red 40 makes him poop on himself and just generally go crazy.
Today I bought some naked protein smoothies and i've been putting those in his cup all day. I figured at least he'll be getting some protein.
How would you or have you handled this?
Very blessed mama to one bouncin' boy (12/07) one who didn't get to stay (6/09), one potty learning, mess making diva(4/10), and one cheerful milk monster. (12/11) Happy partner to the love of my life.
Have you tried a few days with nothing but water to drink? Do you think he'd still fill up on water and not eat? Just a suggestion, b/c I notice with my kids if we have anything other than water to drink, even just milk, they tend to drink a lot more and eat less. When we've had nothing in the house to drink besides water they really do seem to have better appetites. I certainly wouldn't withhold fluids, but water only is just fine - especially if there are plenty of healthy foods to choose from.
Hope you get some other suggestions.
Have you taken him to the doctor? Honestly it sounds really worrisome and I would want to look into every medical issue. Though my kids have never, ever, on any day eaten as well as you say your child used to--they also never, ever have eaten as poorly as he is doing now. The big eating changes, complaints about pain, and the sleeping would make me really want to get it checked out. Please do.
I would take him in for testing. It does sound concerning. I would insist on a CBC, celiac panel, thyroid panel, and stool tests, and maybe a RAST allergy test for good measure. I would also keep a food diary for "proof" to the doctor.
The list of what he used to eat sounds like tons of food for a 3YO honestly. Maybe he was just going through a growth spurt then because that's a lot of food.
Our kids must eat a couple of bites before they get a drink, or they would drink, drink, drink and not eat anything. I don't make them eat their whole meal, but going a few bites without a drink will be okay. We also tend to have only water, milk with snacks. I buy 1/2 gallon of juice every 2 weeks, and we usually don't drink all of it. So I'd definitely limit him to water at meals to see if he's just filling up on the calories of juice & milk.
You have had so much upheaval in your lives that I honestly think psychological/emotional problems are more of a concern than the sudden onset of a physical condition. Trauma can cause physical symptoms, and he's been through a ton. What your kids have been through for what sounds like their entire lives isn't just "a little anxiety." It's the kind of upheaval that really can cause lifelong problems if not addressed. I am not blaming you - just to get that out of the way. The situation is what it is, but I really think trying to address the trauma will be more productive. It can cause even the excessive sleep.
Thanks for all the ideas. I would tend to agree with you, visionarymom, that it is more likely to be physical manifestations of emotional issues. But I also can't rule out an actual medical problem. It's so hard to know how much to push him...on the one hand, if the lack of eating is a symptom of increasing anxiety, then pushing him to eat would eb counterproductive and probably make it worse. On the other hand, the fact that he will eat junk food all day if I let him (although he complains of stomach upset, and takes a lot of breaks, he will continually graze on cheese crackers and fruit snacks all day if allowed) makes me wonder if he just doesn't feel like eating what is offered?
I don't have a pediatrician whom I reall trust in terms of discipline and parenting advice. I only go to her for medical issues. So discussing this with her isn't likely to be fruitful unless I already have an idea of what is going on. The practice is pretty pro-CIO, anti cosleeping, for example. I imagine she would tell me to do something discipline wise that I'm just not comfortable with. Of course, I won't know for sure unless I ask!
Very blessed mama to one bouncin' boy (12/07) one who didn't get to stay (6/09), one potty learning, mess making diva(4/10), and one cheerful milk monster. (12/11) Happy partner to the love of my life.
I'm not sure that a pediatrician would respond to the following: went from being an excellent eater to complaining of stomach pain after a few bites, went from normal sleep to taking 3 hour naps, sleeping more at night, to being a discipline issue. I'm sorry, I don't know what's going on in your life, but I feel like ruling out a medical issue should be a top priority, like today.
Even if the pediatrician does think it is some sort of behavior thing that doesn't mean you have to listen to him or use any sort of discipline technique he might recommend. I would take him in and get him checked out. It could be stress/anxiety, or it could be something medical, or it could be nothing -- a growth spurt, a phase. Wouldn't you feel better if the doctor ran some tests and ruled out anything serious?
I hope your DS is back to his old self soon!

Treasure Island gets new power line
By BOB McCLURE
Article published on
Tuesday, June 8, 2010
TREASURE ISLAND If all goes as anticipated, frequent power failures on the Isle of Palms and Isle of Capri will soon be a thing of the past.
Progress Energy is in the process of installing the fourth of four power lines that service the island. Tentative plans call for the completion in November, according to project manager Jerry Faustino who provided an update at the June 1 City Commission meeting.
This will be new cable along the Treasure Island Causeway, Faustino said. Its necessary because a lot of residents have been having interrupted service.
Will this eliminate our summer blackouts? asked Commissioner Phil Collins.
Weve done some additional tree trimming (to improve service), but yes, this will take care of it and will be a big improvement, said Faustino.
The work involves laying the cable 3 feet underground along the center of the causeway and 130 feet below the seabed where the route crosses water.
The project got under way last month with the first phase, which involved installing overhead lines from St. Petersburg to the causeway.
Underwater and underground bores will begin in September to provide for a 20-inch pipe that will house the power line.
Dirt that is brought up from the work will be stored at a remote location until it dries before being transported out of the area.
The route will be the centerline of the causeway between the bridges, said Faustino.
Once it reaches Treasure Island, the line will move west along 108th Avenue to Gulf Boulevard, then north to 112th Avenue where it will connect with an existing overhead line.
Faustino said work will take place Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
The new line will replace an existing line that goes under Boca Ciega Bay from the Jungle area of St. Petersburg. The line was originally installed in the 1950s and has simply worn out. Faustino said it cannot be replaced due to environmental regulations.
Landscaping along the causeway will be restored at an equal or better level at no cost to the city.
In other action, commissioners:
Passed a resolution allowing the city to enter into a license agreement with Brian Cocozza to operate a cabanas and chairs concession behind the Island Inn Resort, 9980 Gulf Blvd. Cocozza will pay the city $85 per month, or $1,020 annually, to operate the business on a 350-foot wide stretch of public area behind the motel. The agreement calls for an initial one-year agreement between Cocozza and the city with an option for two renewal periods up to three years each. Cocozza also agreed to supply an additional two trash receptacles for the area that he will be responsible for emptying into a larger city receptacle nearby.
Passed a resolution approving the allocation of $24,995 to Volkert and Associates to complete consulting work on a traffic signal project planned for Gulf Boulevard and 104th Avenue. The project does not currently include any road widening for a turn lane, which Volkert has agreed to complete work on for the amount allocated. The total cost of the project is estimated at $275,000, which is included in the current city budget. Publix Supermarket will play half the cost, up to a maximum of $300,000. The citys portion will ultimately be reimbursed by the Florida Department of Transportation through a Local Agency Program agreement that shuttles Federal Highway Administration funds back to local governments. The target date for completion is the first quarter of 2011.
Passed a resolution updating the citys personnel manual.

Eric Barber's MetriLodic + Bad Luck
Eric Barber's MetriLodic is a freely improvising trio that breaks most of the rules of groove-based ensembles. Featuring Eric Barber on sax and electronics, with longtime collaborators PK on electric bass and Byron Vannoy on drums, this band take rhythm, meter, groove, and melody in a new direction. Bad Luck (drummer Chris Icasiano + saxophonist Neil Welch) use live loops and pedals to create an astounding range of sound, quickly shifting into fierce improvisations, sound art, and carefully constructed harmonic palettes.

Caption contest 236 ... and the winners of 235May 11, 2014 12:00 AM
Stacy Innerst is the artist. You are the caption writer.
The people most likely to understand the image for CapCon 235 (click on second image above) might be called "of a certain age." Young gambling folk these days probably only know soulless slot machines with push buttons and electronic blips. (In case a young person is reading this: Slot machines used to be called "one-arm bandits" because players would pull an arm to get the mechanical wheels a-turnin'. The machines would generally steal your money, which remains the case today.) We are not so nebby as to ask the ages of today's winners, but we bet they skew upward.
Birds are funny for all ages, so ponder CapCon 236 and send up to three entries to email@example.com or mail to: Caption Contest
Portfolio, Post-Gazette, 34 Blvd. of the Allies, Pittsburgh PA 15222. Please include name and address and identify your municipality or Pittsburgh city neighborhood. Deadline: May 19. Winners receive a PG umbrella that will arrive in time for the Dollar Bank Three Rivers Arts Festival, a production of the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust.

Frerotte only a short-term solution for Vikings
Published: September 17th, 2008 | Tags: Gus Frerotte, Minnesota Vikings, Tarvaris Jackson
During the offseason, Minnesota expressed little interest in trading for Brett Favre. It insisted it had its quarterback of the future in Tarvaris Jackson. But now, Vikings coach Brad Childress just announced that Jackson has been benched.
Effective immediately, Gus Frerotte is the Vikings' new starting quarterback. His first start will come Sunday against Carolina, in a game the 0-2 Vikings badly need.
Starting Sunday is one thing. But now the question becomes what the Vikings do at quarterback long-term. Jackson has not been the answer so far, and his benching would indicate he will not be any time soon. Minnesota also drafted John David Booty, and he could be groomed.
But Minnesota is searching for an answer at quarterback. For now it is hoping it is Frerotte. For the future, it is wide open.

2012 BMW 6 Series Coupe - Consumer Review
Build Quality
Reliability Value
Build Quality
Reliability Value
10 of 10 people found this review helpful
Wonderful combination of attributes
By doctorevil2 on
Vehicle2012 BMW 6 Series 650i xDrive 2dr Coupe AWD (4.4L 8cyl Turbo 8A)
ReviewThe new 650 is surely a GT but it seems like more to me.
I can explain best via comparison.
It handles and pulls better than my Aston Martin.
The cabin is richer than all but 65-level AMG cars.
Technical geekiness is on par with a 911.
On the other hand, it is not a rare British sculpture but it will have much greater reliability.
It is not an S65 but feels better and costs way less.
It is surely no 911 in terms of handling, but styling and grace, and lack of pretentious attitude give it the nod.
I was ready for a less-involved driving experience, and the 650 is perfect.
It is a demanding ride only until I am ready to just relax.
I used to need 2 different cars for that.
Best FeaturesSeat, smooth available power, geek gadgets, performance that my woe can drive more easily than a 911 or V8 Vantage.
Worst FeaturesWill add Dinan engine mod for a total of 501 up. So, it'll be an AWD M6 when Im done

Orlando Bloom is loving family life with Miranda Kerr and their 6-month-old son Flynn. In an interview promoting his latest film, The Three Musketeers, the actor gushes over his baby's smell to the Daily Record newspaper.
My baby is amazing, even his head smells amazing. His breath, the whole thing, you could eat him! He's a big, beautiful boy. He's great."
Orlando says they divide their time between Los Angeles and London.
He says, "It's good in LA but I kind of live in London as well. Most of the time I keep it very quiet as I like to be at home and not in the eye of it all.
"You can't avoid it sometimes in LA unfortunately – I try my best but it's very difficult. When I'm in the UK, and I'm here more than people would think, I tend to keep a very low profile. I just enjoy being home with my family and mates and stuff."

The challenges and opportunities that lie ahead as a county commissioner have led her to give up plans for a run for state office next year, Wayne County Commissioner Cheryl Noah said Thursday.
At the Wayne County Republican Party picnic on Aug. 17, Noah had announced her intention to run for the Ohio House of Representatives seat now held by state Rep. Ron Amstutz. She said then that she had enjoyed her years of local service as a commissioner and prior to that as a member of the county Planning Commission and that she had interacted with state legislators as much as possible during her two terms as county commissioner.
Amstutz, who will run for the Ohio Senate seat now held by state Sen. Grace Drake, R-Solon, is being forced by voter-approved state term limits to relinquish his House seat.
Noah's decision Thursday leaves the field clear for Wayne County Republican Party Chairman James Carmichael in next year's GOP primary.
At the county GOP picnic in August, Carmichael also announced his intention to run for the seat now held by Amstutz. No other candidate has announced an intention to run for nomination to Amstutz' House seat in either the GOP or Democratic Party primary next spring.
"We're looking at two possible candidates at this time," Democratic Party Chairman Don Lance said Thursday. "Neither has made a commitment and therefore I'm unable to divulge (a name).
"I think either one of my candidates will be an able match for Jim Carmichael," Lance said, "(and) both of them are in tune with the issues that are going to be important to residents of Ohio in the coming century."
Her reasons for dropping the state office bid at this time are threefold, Noah said: "First, I am very happy in my (commissioner's) job."
Second, she said, is that "so much remains to be done" in the county's ongoing efforts to adjust to welfare reform, deal with balancing the demands of farmland preservation and controlled development and shoulder responsibility for local job training and workforce programs.
Rules for such programs will change next year from existing federal guidelines laid down in the Job Training Partnership Act of 1982 to the new responsibilities under the Workforce Investment Act of 1998.
Other challenges the county must deal with during the next commissioner's term, Noah said, include relocation of the Wayne County Engineer's Office and, subsequent to that, the transfer of property adjacent to the Wayne County Fairgrounds from its present use as a storage yard by the engineer's office to the control of the Wayne County Agricultural Society (Fair Board).
The third reason for her decision to seek re-election next year as a commissioner involves the issue of providing continuity in local government, Noah said.
"I am not closing that door (to a run for state office)," she said, but she is deferring it to sometime further down the road.
She would have gone ahead with her run for Amstutz' House seat, Noah said, "if I didn't have these conscience problems about walking away from what is here."

BU Occupies Boston: A Community Reacts
At the beginning of this meeting, it was decided that, due to the sensitive nature of the incidents involved, the names of the students incarcerated and the students who spoke would not be given without their express permission.
Last night, the members of BU Occupies Boston, a branch of Occupy Boston—which is, in turn, a sibling of Occupy Wall Street—convened to reflect, react and reorganize. A group of around 40 students gathered yesterday evening in the Women's Resource Center to discuss the events and to answer the question that has been on every Bostonian activist's mind since early Tuesday morning: where to go from here?
The majority of the meeting was spent trying to draft two letters composed by BU student activist Tarif Ahmed, one of which was addressed to the Boston Police Department and the other, to Mayor Menino. The letters, which were designed to be messages from the members of the Occupy Boston movement at Boston University (but not the whole Boston University Community) drew controversy from those gathered.
While some students felt that it was important for the tone of the letters to remain respectful and make concessions, others favored a more straightforward approach.
"I think we need to approach Mayor Menino in this antagonizing manner. What happened was really really wrong… Until we expose the wrong-doing of Mayor Menino and the police, people will continue to believe they did the right thing," said one student.
The letters were then handed off to a smaller group of students to edit, but the group decided that they would be finalized and published this Thursday evening.
The assembly agreed that all names of the arrested would remain unannounced for the time being, but it was confirmed that seven current Boston University students were arrested. All were released by the time of the meeting, and three made appearances during the course of the night.
One recounted some experiences at the meeting's opening: "We were originally all charged with two things: one was trespassing on that property after 11:00. It was privately-owned public property. The second was called 'unlawful assembly' and a lot of people I was in the cell with were saying, well, that's unconstitutional," the student said.
According to the Rose Kennedy Greenway's website, the park is officially open from 7am until 11pm, though the protestors had been settled in Dewey Square Park for the weekend, the police only chose to intervene when they chose to add a second camp at the adjacent Fort Point Channel Park. The student claimed that all those arrested had the option to reduce charges to a civil offense, and pay a $50 fine, which most of the protestors and all of the BU students agreed to do.
A larger, inter-collegiate Student General Assembly will meet today, Wednesday, October 12, at 10pm in Dewey Square. BU students can continue to discuss the movement and campus involvement on the group's Facebook page.

Hi! Been trying to find out why things don't work well on Windows 2000. The closest I've come to a solution is that popen() does not work on windows 2000 *when running as a service*. This isused in find_other_exec(), which is what pg_ctl uses to find postmaster.exe. It does appear to work fine on XP and 2003. Haven't tested NT4. The symptoms are popen() returning NULL, with both errno and GetLastError() set to 0. Anyone know *why* this doesn't work? If we don't know why, sign one more down as a bug in mingw (hardly surprising - just the area of pipes and consoles seems to be where it's weak). In that case, why not just recode pg_ctl to execute postmaster.exe from the same directory it found pg_ctl.exe in. This can easily be done using GetModuleFileName(). Is a pipe opened at any other place? Or does other places need to be fixed as well (I haven't gone through the whole code). Oh, and also - has *anybody* got the service running wit hpg_ctl as service wrapper on windows 2000? In that case, it's version or environment dependent... Thoughts? //Magnus

Instrumental ambient duo A Winged Victory for the Sullen has finally released a music video! Directed by Christopher Hewitt, the clip for "Requiem for the Static King Part One" forms the perfect visual counterpart to the debut self-titled album track. As member Adam Wiltze explains:
We started investigating video ideas with many different directors as early as April 2011, to no avail, except for blowing currency on apocryphal hopes. Mr. Hewitt delivered us a storyboard idea around the first week of October last year, and it was well worth the wait. I feel fortunate to be surrounded by people like him, and the team at Knucklehead Films. In the end we have inspired each other, and I can only hope we will work together again before I check out of this place….
Pretty serious stuff. The video is as intimate as the band's music, offering a glimpse of beauty where it's never seen. Watch as a lek of monarchs (SAT word of the day: a lek is a group of butterflies) overtakes a prison, bringing temporary calm to a space often associated with brutality and anguish.

The Ava Saddle Club held their regular monthly meeting on July 7. The Missouri Family Rodeo held on June 21 was a big success. The occasional rain showers didn't seem to bother anyone! We would love to make this an annual event.
There are still lots of activities to plan for. This Saturday, July 12 will be another Saddle Series Fun Show. There are only two fun shows left this year. The club is requesting that if you are going to show that you please dress appropriately for a family event. Long sleeved shirts for the judged events, t-shirts are fine for the speed events, but nothing inappropriate on the shirts, and no holey jeans or tank tops. The final show will be August 9 with prizes being awarded after the show.
On July 19 the Douglas County Foxtrotting Horse Breeders Association will be holding their annual gaited horse show at the saddle club. Contact them for more information.
We will be hosting a Ranch Versatility Show for the Sho-Me Horse Show Association on July 26. The classes in this show include Ranch Cutting, Working Cow, Trail, Ranch Pleasure and Reining. There are 4 divisions; open, amateur, novice and youth. If you've never been to one of these type of shows come on out and see what it's all about. There's no charge to watch, but we would love to have you bring your horse and join in! For more information you can call 417-683-0391. Or check out Sho-Me's website or Facebook page.
The work on the arena has been postponed until October because of all the rain we've been having. Just can't get enough dry days in a row to start working on the dirt. But that's a good problem to have in July!
As always, we need volunteers to help out at all of our events. If you are a member, or would like to become a member, and like to see these kind of events going on at your saddle club, we need your help. It takes some work to put these on, but we always have a good time doing it. If you want to join or you would like to volunteer you can contact Sonny Nelson, president, at 683-6717. Support your saddle club with more than just your dues, bring your helping hands and let's make this the best saddle club around!

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Yahoo! (YHOO) fell 3.01% to $39.99, down from its previous close of $41.23, at the close of the trading day on Monday after news broke that the company's recent malware attack may have been worse than previously thought.
Yahoo! posted on its HelpCenter site on Friday that a small number people outside of Europe, where the bulk of the attack took place, could have been affected by the attack. Yahoo! also stated that the issues took place between Dec. 27, 2013 and Jan. 3, 2014.
More than 2 million PCs may have been put at risk and some Yahoo! users may have had their personal information put in jeopardy. Those who used Yahoo! Web sites or services such as Yahoo! Mail and Yahoo! IM may have been hit with the malware through the Yahoo! ad network. The company has since addressed the problem.
On Monday, Yahoo! hit a high of $41.22 and a low of $39.80 and amassed a volume of 16,041,243, shares, less than its average volume of 17,131,500. The stock has a one-year high of $41.72 and a one-year low of $19.25.
TheStreet Ratings team rates YAHOO INC as a Buy with a ratings score of B-. The team has this to say about its recommendation:
"We rate YAHOO INC (YHOO) a BUY. This is driven by multiple strengths, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its solid stock price performance, reasonable valuation levels and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income."

Gwyneth Paltrow, who recently released a much-maligned diet book, credits her rigorous workout plan for her good looks, noting that, "around the house, I'm in jeans and a T-shirt. I don't really wear makeup."
Runners up include Kerry Washington, Amanda Seyfried and Jane Fonda.
Check out the rest of the winners, then let us know what you think. Are these really the most beautiful women? Who would you add to the list?

Moderate centre holds
Last Sunday, the Greek electorate held its nose and voted for reform and austerity, for Europe and the euro. It was a vote based largely on the fear of the alternative — not exactly a confidence-inspiring motive, but at least it produced a workable result that Greece's creditors should support.
Voters indeed faced a painful choice: Reelect the corrupt and clientelistic mainstream parties that, after having bankrupted Greece, now promise to thoroughly reform themselves and the country; or follow the siren songs of leftwing extremists who promise gain without pain, bailouts without conditions and euro membership without solvency.
Caught between a rock and a hard place, they slightly favoured the centre-right New Democracy party, that, led by Antonis Saramas, came in at around 30 per cent. The anti-bailout, anti-German and nationalistic leftwing utopian group called Syriza, led by Alexis Tsipra, was not far behind, with about 27 per cent of the votes. As the victor, Samaras should now be able to form a government together with pro-bailout coalition partners, among them the rival Pasok, a centre-left party.
Quite obviously, this is not a vote of confidence in the old guard — just recognition of the lack of responsible alternatives. The electorate has not forgotten that New Democracy and Pasok have spent decades promising everything to everybody and then giving as much to as many people as the cash machine called the European Union (EU) would allow them to borrow on a credit card.
The voters have also not forgotten that even after the crash, more than two years ago, both parties still tried to protect their main constituencies from the harsh realities of life after the debt bubble had burst.
After spending and borrowing for so long, the old guard now lives on borrowed time. And because that guard has taken some important steps towards reform (cutting government spending, including a bloated pension system) and because the alternative could doom European unity, Europe and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) must now help Greece's leaders make the best of that time.
New Democracy promised voters to renegotiate the timelines of Greek commitments to creditors. This demand is reasonable.
First, Greece has already fallen behind on its commitments agreed in an IMF programme in March. That is largely due to the electoral uncertainty. It should not be held against the Greeks.
Second, nobody suggests reneging on the commitments themselves. Structural reforms continue to be necessary for Greece to return to economic growth. But Greece also needs time. This is a country that does not run an effective tax collection system and cannot rely on a complete register of deeds. Administrative structures cannot be reformed overnight. Greece will be dependent on Europe for many years to come and the creditors must understand what they are in for.
This is the third vote in Europe within the last few weeks and it points to an emerging pattern of moderation. In France, voters installed a centre-left Socialist parliament and elected a new Socialist president, Francois Hollande. He wants to adjust — but not end — Europe's strategy of bailouts in exchange for reforms. In an Irish referendum, voters said "yes" to European budget constraints.
As much as electorates are sick of austerity and tired of hearing of the inherent necessities of the 17-nation currency zone, they think the alternatives to the coordinated European policies are worse.
Populism is not seen as a viable choice. Europeans know what they are defending. Alarmists can write fiery commentary about the impending demise of the euro or all of Europe, but, in fact, the moderate centre still holds.
Nonetheless, the pro-European integrationists should not feel all that relieved. In the Greek elections, as much as in the Irish referendum, fear trumped anger. Only when, one day, vision trumps fear will Europe be saved for good.

text: $13 million Govt boost to upgrade WIN Jubilee Oval Mon 11 Oct, 2010, 12:35pm Tweet Email Print WIN Jubilee Oval at Kogarah – the home ground of the 2010 NRL Premier's St George Illawarra Dragons – will be given a $13 million funding boost from the NSW Government. The additional funding is a result of strong representations from Kogarah MP Cherie Burton and Minister for Sport and Recreation and Oatley MP, Kevin Greene. The NSW Government has already invested more than $12 million to upgrade WIN Jubilee Oval at Kogarah, and this brings that total to more than $25 million. The $13 million will go towards the completion of a final range of works that include: - A new northern grandstand with 1,372 undercover seats; - New toilet and concession facilities; - New change rooms for first grade and Under 20s players; - New corporate area and boxes; and - A new museum and merchandise outlet. Premier Kristina Keneally today joined Kogarah MP Cherie Burton, St George Illawarra Dragons CEO, Peter Doust and St George Illawarra Dragons players to announce the $13 million upgrade WIN Jubilee Oval at Kogarah. "St George Illawarra Dragons fans have another reason to celebrate with this additional funding needed for the completion of the stadium redevelopment," Ms Burton said. "This investment has been a huge boost to our passionate Dragons-loving local community, and continues to build on the investment by the NSW Government over the last few years." Minister for Sport and Recreation and Oatley MP Kevin Greene said the massive infrastructure investment is great news for the entire community, not just rugby league fans, players and clubs. "WIN Jubilee Oval is a major asset for the St George region that's used not only by the mighty 2010 Premiership winning Dragons but also by sporting groups, community groups and local schools," Mr Greene said. "The completion of the upgrade will ensure this iconic sporting ground and community facility will keep meeting the needs of the local community." Premier Kristina Keneally said spectators at this year's games and the 2010 grand final live site demonstrated the importance of the Oval to the St George Illawarra Dragons players and fans. "The new southern grandstand which opened last year has already given the ground a major boost," Ms Keneally said. "Thousands of fans turned out for last weekend's Grand Final live site here at Jubilee Oval to cheer the mighty Dragons to victory." St George Illawarra Dragons CEO, Peter Doust said: "I am very pleased on behalf of our Dragons Red V Members and supporters that the NSW Government has funded the completion of Stage 3 of the Master Plan Re-development of WIN Jubilee Oval, Kogarah in accordance with the already approved development application. "Completion of Stage 3 will provide improved quality of services for patrons and ensure WIN Jubilee Oval remains a high quality community asset for the long term."

Dodd-Frank, championed by President Obama, is permitting those big banks to scarf up community banks and monopolize markets. Now those hardly pay any interest to the elderly on certificates of deposit but continue doling out unconscionable bonuses. That sure grows the middle class -- taxing Grandma to pay Goldman Sachs! Mr. Obama has made the tax code even more complicated, and harps daily he wants to raise rates on small businesses to finance more crony projects like Solyndra. He has crippled petroleum development in the Gulf, off the two coasts and in Alaska, and has proven too weak to deal effectively with Beijing on currency and trade. Obama and Biden accuse Mitt Romney of wanting to take America back to the failed policies of President Bush. Mr. Romney would give Americans a good dose of what they want: a tax system they could understand; financial regulations that don't pay off Mr. Obama's Wall Street pals and abuse the elderly; freedom to develop American energy instead of stuffing the pockets of adversaries abroad and pick their own investments; and a whole lot less condescension and paternalism. During the debates, voters heard the same old same old about terrible problems inherited and watched Obama and Biden grin contemptuously, interrupt and fail to listen courteously to their opponents. No one has a corner on good ideas. Successful leaders listen to their competitors and embrace their successful approaches. No surprise Obama and Biden enjoy little success working with Republicans. They simply don't have what it takes to bring Americans together and move the country forward.

Vroom Room
Good Morning!
The first Vroom Room of 2013, its Friday, come in we have cappuccino, biscotti, make yourself comfortable, join the conversation.
Heading back to reality, you have surely been reading a variety of articles, and thoughts about the housing market in Canada, and some of the flaws in the "system". Starting in 2009 its CSM (Citizen Main Street) that has powered the Canadian economy, the housing market, and valuation of homes were a contributing factor in powering the economy.
A few months ago, the message was as blunt as a sledge hammer, and crystal clear, the Canadian consumer is "tapped out", the housing market is hovering at heights that are perilous, while Canadian companies are sitting on mountains of cash, which is reasonable course of action (are we that naive) considering global uncertainties.
Yes...Canadian companies need to start powering up the Canadian economy.
Focusing on the wrong priorities, accompanied by fear mongering will simply exacerbate the housing market, further rattle consumer confidence, and hurt auto sales in Canada. In a few days after every pundits will comment on a record or near record auto sales in Canada for 2012, what will develop in 2013? What are your thoughts? Care to leave a comment.
An opportunity to browse the catalogue for the upcoming RM Auction Arizona sale on January 18...that Cobra again.
Think about this, we have snow in Canada, we have cold, and snow storms, freezing rain, black ice, its been going on for centuries. Why is it that when we have an appreciable snow fall the media behaves as if it never happened before. Its winter, its normal to have snow and at times more snow, its totally normal to know how to deal with snow, be it to walk, shovel, drive, have fun. The entire process has been around for centuries...
Informative article from iPolitics Crisis of Confidence The Long Fall of the Middle Class.
Canadian sales...do we really have to mention that the manufacturers that were competitive during 2012 had a strong December, and a strong 2012.

SUNRISE, Fla. - Three women were arrested on prostitution charges after the Sunrise Police Department received a tip that illegal sex acts were taking place at three separate massage parlors.
Quingluei Liu, 54, Xiuhua Zang, 41, and Maria Olmo, 51, were arrested Monday. Police said Liu and Olmo were also charged with misrepresenting themselves as licensed masseuses.
One undercover detective said he paid $60 for an hour-long massage at the Dancing Finger at 2762 N. University Drive. He said Zang massaged his back, and then began manually stimulating his penis after he rolled over, asking him if he liked it.
Another undercover detective was also charged $60 for an hour-long massage at Wrap and Relax at 8043 W. Oakland Park Blvd. He said Olmo massaged his back for a few minutes and then offered to have sex with him for $150.
That same day, another undercover detective visited the Asian Spa at 3838 N. University Dr. He said Liu initially charged him $100 to masturbate him, but eventually agreed to perform the sex act for $70.

Ronaldo aims to win back Old Trafford fans
Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo has vowed to win back Manchester United fans - for the second time in his career.
The Portuguese forward was involved in a long-running transfer saga in the summer and was quoted saying he wanted to move to Real Madrid.
The 24-year-old eventually stayed at Old Trafford, and he has drawn parallels with the reaction he faced after the World Cup two years ago, where he was vilified for his part in Wayne Rooney's red card in England's quarter-final defeat.
He told the Sun: "A part of the supporters show themselves to be more unhappy than others. But I hope to change their minds.
"When I put on the United shirt I give my maximum. Nobody can condemn me on this.
"I hope it will be similar to when I came back to England after the 2006 World Cup and I can win the fans back."
United were critical of Madrid's approach and refused to sell their star asset, but Ronaldo insists it was his decision to stay.
"Nobody can convince me about anything," he continued. "Since I was young I've had to make decisions, I make them alone.
"I want to win more at this club. If the boss thinks I have to stay on the bench I respect that, even if it's difficult," he added.
