Celtics' Sullinger lost for seasonBy MARK MURPHY
Boston Herald
February 02. 2013 11:03PM
For now he's a 12th man, but with the loss of Jared Sullinger for the season, Fab Melo is about to take that next step after a successful run with the Maine Red Claws of the NBADL for the last three months.
The other Celtics rookie suited up for Friday night's game against Orlando, played three minutes, made one steal in the 97-84 win, and started to absorb the big time.
"It's not the situation I wanted to come in when Jared got hurt. But this is an opportunity," said Melo. "This is the thing I've been looking for is this opportunity. If the coach calls my name I'll be ready for him. Danny (Ainge) told me I need to play more and that's why I was in Maine."
Doc Rivers is the most immovable of coaches when it comes to playing rookies, which says something about how advanced Sullinger was as a player. But the Celtics coach now has no choice but to use the Brazilian 7-footer at some stage. The Clippers, one of the biggest and most athletic teams in the league, visit the Garden today.
"I'm sure we will at some point," Rivers said "I know how people here like to see the young guys, and love to play the young guys. But I'm sure at some point Fab will find his way on the floor. You try to give him as much as he can handle. You try to put him into situations where he's on the floor with Kevin (Garnett), so that will help him.
"The good thing, at least in this era right now, is that there aren't a lot of bigs," said Rivers. "There aren't a ton of big teams. Orlando, because of the loss of (Glen Davis, broken foot), has to play small at times. Unfortunately the team we play next (Clippers) is really big. But other than that there's three or four teams in the entire league."
All the same, Melo's first substantial minutes are probably not imminent.
"I don't see Fab getting a lot of opportunities right now," said Ainge. "So we'll have to keep tabs on that, because we want him to continue his development."
Melo, though, believes he has already made progress.
"It's not tough because I've been working on my game," said Melo. "I improved a lot. My defensive part of my game, my offense, and just the experience to play man-on-man. This is new for me, because in Syracuse I stayed in the middle of the zone all the time."
Battle with boredom
Just because he has joined Rajon Rondo on the shelf doesn't mean Sullinger will be a stranger -- at least not if Rivers has anything to do about it.
"Beyond the rehab it's the boredom," Rivers said of the greatest challenge facing Sullinger. "They have never done anything else. (Davis) and Jared have only played basketball in their lives. Maybe Jared can take some classes. He left school early. Work on his degree. But we want him around us. That's really important.
"This just slows his development a little bit, but Jared is an old soul," said Rivers. "He doesn't need summer league, which a lot of young guys do."
Rondo hopes for best
Rondo has been told by doctors that the tear in his right knee was "clean," according to agent Bill Duffy.
"It should be what Danny said," Duffy said of Ainge's stated expectation that Rondo will return by next training camp - an identical timetable that the Celtics president of basketball operations has placed on Sullinger's return.
As of Friday, Duffy was attempting to schedule an appointment for Rondo with Dr. James Andrews.
Rondo has been encouraged by Celtics management to seek a second opinion.
"We're just learning more so Rajon can get more understanding of things," said Duffy. "He's never had surgery before, and he wants to know everything. We've been told that it's a minimal tear, so this should all be pretty basic.
"It's been tough for him, but he's hanging in there. We're all hopeful."

Marijuana's genetic "map" is expected to help researchers chart the disease defenses of the hop plant.
Hops are in the same family as cannabis sativa, an herbaceous plant known for its psychoactive properties.
In 2011, Canadian researchers mapped the "genome" — or hereditary information — of cannabis sativa to study its biomedical properties.
That map is now providing a blueprint for the hop plant's genetic data, such as the layout of chromosomes, said John Henning, a USDA hop breeder, at the 2014 American Hop Convention in Portland, Ore.
The cannabis sativa map will help researchers get a general sense of where hop chromosomes and partial chromosomes are located, he said.
Aside from piecing together genetic data, the cannabis sativa map will validate existing information about the hop genome, Henning said.
Such research is involved in finding genetic "markers" associated with resistance to powdery mildew and downy mildew, common fungal diseases, he said.
These markers are useful for "targeted breeding" — researchers can identify markers for resistance, which makes them less dependent on observable plant traits in the field, he said.
Markers provide a "bird's eye view of what is going on," allowing breeders to understand the basic location of certain genetic traits without isolating the exact genes involved, he said.
While mapping is good enough for breeding purposes, "deep sequencing" of hereditary data will explain precisely which genes are responsible for certain traits and which regulators turn them on and off, he said.
"It's like a zoom-in on a lens," Henning said.
Aside from genetic resistance, researchers are studying how to manage disease with better field practices.
While post-harvest control measures are still being evaluated, it appears late-season pruning can impede powdery mildew, said David Gent, a USDA plant pathologist.
Researchers have made progress in understanding when buds are susceptible to the fungus and have narrowed the target window for pruning.
Mechanically or chemically killing hop "flag shoots" infected with the fungal pathogen in late summer can prevent broader re-infection the following year, he said.
In the Northwest, powdery mildew has to survive on living hop tissue, he said. While such flag shoots are relatively rare, even a small number can cause outbreaks of the disease.
Some flag shoots can survive chemical pruning and mechanized pruning is more effective at reducing powdery mildew, but the latter method is more expensive, he said.
Knowing precisely when to prune hops without harming yields will depend on the variety and require experimentation, Gent said.
In Europe, controlling powdery mildew is complicated by the disease's ability to survive on dead tissue.
In the Northwest, only one "mating type" of the fungus lives on hop plants and dies without a living host.
In Europe, there is another mating type present and the two strains can reproduce sexually, forming a reproductive structure known as a "cleistothecia."
A cleistothecia can survive on dead tissue and re-infect new plant growth with the disease, said Gent.
This dynamic has obvious disease management implications, which is why brewers and breeders must carefully follow plant quarantine regulations when importing hops from overseas, he said.

Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy (US - BD RA)
Gabe is done with Jack Sparrow for the rest of his life, thank you very much...
My personal experience with the Pirates of the Caribbean movies has been quite a rollercoaster ride. To start, the very idea of a film based on a theme park ride was downright ridiculous, and pirate movies had proven box office poison for decades (I believe that up until the release of Pluto Nash, Cutthroat Island was the number one biggest money loser of all time). Jerry Bruckheimer had been producing two dimensional garbage for ever ( Kangaroo Jack, Bad Company, Pearl Harbor, Coyote Ugly, with only Black Hawk Down to break the awfulness), and director Gore Verbinski had only been a blip on the radar (though Mouse Hunt and The Ring did impress). There were only two things working in the films favour, and only two things that got me in that theater in 2003—Johnny Depp and Geoffrey Rush.
How surprised was I when Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl ended up being an entertaining swashbuckler that garnered a well earned Academy Award nomination for star Johnny Depp? Very, that's how surprised. Truthfully, Depp and Rush really rule over the film with duelling iron fists, but weak sauce beauties Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly are actually well cast as the less interesting story's leaders. Black Pearl is a little overlong, and perhaps a little too dependant on special effects (but golly gee are those cool looking skeleton ghosts), but really the film should be remembered as a success, and despite its sequel's shortcomings I'd like to see it looked back on fondly.
But the sequels have soiled the briny deep of Black Pearl's water. I like to call it the Matrix Complex (though I'm sure others would prefer the Prequel Trilogy Syndrome). When ineffective or ill-advised sequels overwhelm the memory of a good original film, the public has a tendency to group a series into the 'bad' category. I'm totally guilty of this.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest is purely and simply a bad movie. It begins by turning all the major characters into entirely unlikable wretches. Bloom and Knightly's generally bland presence is intensified by mistaking mean spirited whininess for character development, and Depp's appears entirely disinterested in the character, who the writers seem to have confused with Bugs Bunny. Black Pearl's issues with special effects dependency, and unnecessary length are increased ten-fold, and perhaps worst of all, the comic relief devolves into George Lucas levels of un-funniness.
Rumours circulated during the production of Dead Man's Chest, and the second sequel At World's End (which were shot at the same time) that the scripts were not finished, and several chunks of plot were being made up as the filming commenced. I don't know if these rumours were true, but Dead Man's Chest bares many scars that point towards accuracy. The plot is a mess of set pieces with very little narrative thread to connect them. There's no reason for the film to take two and a half hours to get from Bloom and Knightly's wedding threatened to Captain Jack getting noshed by the Kraken. The story told over the two sequels is too big for one movie, but so much of the actual plot is delegated to At World's End that I find it completely within reason to skip Dead Man's Chest when re-watching the trilogy for this review, which really says something about the strength of the storytelling.
It doesn't actually have huge barring on my decision to dislike Dead Man's Chest, but after seeing it for the first time (on an airplane, unfortunately) I realized that its plot template was taken directly from the most popular fantasy sequel of all time— The Empire Strikes Back. Both films begin with the heroes losing a 'battle' (a less literal one in the case of Dead Man's Chest), and becoming separated. Both films introduce a new character that supplies a hero with important information on control of the supernatural (Yoda and Tia Dalma). Both films feature the return of a character from a hero's past with questionable allegiances, who will end up betraying the heroes, then atoning in the next film (Lando and Norrington). Both films feature the discovery of a lost father figure who the main hero will single-mindedly try to 'save' in the next film (Vader and Bootstrap Bill). Perhaps most tellingly, both films feature the 'death' of the lovably scruffy pirate (Han Solo and Jack Sparrow), and both films end with the surviving heroes regrouping to rescue the pirate from 'death'.
How ever, contrary to every single assumptive bone in my body, I actually kind of like At World's End. The third film in the series is still a mess in its script, and the humour is still pretty risible, and it's too long, and it still depends too much on visual effects, but there's a welcome sense of the absurd, and the fantasy elements of the series finally seem to have found their footing. In some senses At World's End feels like an entirely different experience then Dead Man's Chest, even though the events of the two movies follow thematically very closely. There's a palpable sense of sorrow in the film, especially for Davy Jones, who was nothing but a waste of amazing CG work and Bill Nighy's talents. Cutler Beckett and Norrington's arcs aren't emotionally satisfying, and Chow Yun Fat is entirely wasted, but Bloom and Knightly finally get a chance to do something effectively emotional, and Depp gets a fair chance at taking his Oscar nominated character out on a high note.
At World's End gets a pass in my book for three key reasons, as even totally rad special effects and an improved sense of pacing can't make up for a continuously convoluted plot featuring more senseless double crosses than a Mission Impossible movie. The first ace is the return of Geoffrey Rush, who was greatly missed in the previous episode. Captain Barbosa gives Depp something to work off of, and no one can sell a pirate stereotype like Geoffrey Rush can. His presence alone sells the marriage scene. The second ace is the aforementioned sense of absurdity that concerns the first act of the film, and which bleeds into parts of the finale. The white washed dead world, the melancholy dead spirits in the water, and the Black Pearl's journey to the end of the world recalls the best Terry Gilliam imagery, and gives the film a real visual identity. The final ace is the bittersweet ending. I say bravo to the writers, who after almost three film's worth of pulp and lightweight drama had the balls to end this story on what basically equates to a downer.
Now I'm sure all you Jack Sparrow fans already own these discs, right? You all know these discs look and sound just about as good as anyone can expect, right? I can just skip all this stuff, right? Ok then, talk to you later. Ok, apparently Tom tells me I have to write something here, so I guess I'll think of something.
All three films look equally as fresh, sharp, and spiffing, thought the first film does display a slightly less 'refined' look (meaning that it actually looks a little more natural than the CG overhauled sequels), and the nit-pickers may notice some fine grain and noise during scenes with low and warm light. Verbinski's compositions are fantastic reference material for the format, because of their mix of stylized lighting, textured costume and set design, and state of the art special effects. There are a few moments throughout the series that are generally slighted in detail, but overall we're talking the sharpest edges and most impeccably separated colours. Sometimes Verbinski opts for an overall colour grading, such as the cool blue night scenes, but most of the film's scenes are vibrant with many colours, each popping with their own impressive brilliance.
The blacks, especially those of the latter two films, are deep and diamond cut, adding rough texture to natural hues like boat wood or human flesh. The textured art direction is one element of the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy that every viewer must agree is impressive, and in high definition these textures take on an extremely lifelike appearance. The digital characters revel in just as much detail as the real characters, which is a big part of their success and believability. The one curse of hi-def is its effect on special effects of all sorts. Mostly these films get away with their effects, especially in darker and wider shots (the Kraken and maelstrom look awesome), but there are some creature close-ups that don't do quite so well. Most specifically Davy Jones' tentacles sometimes lack 'blend', and when the Kraken appears behind Jack at the end of film two it lacks definition and contrast.
Research tells me that there was a problem with Black Pearl's framing when it was first released. From what I can tell (and I could be wrong) this set features the correctly framed version.
First, a quick aside, which will actually have an impact on all my future Blu-ray reviews until future notice. Some readers may remember that I have a lack of 5.1 PCM availability, which caused a bit of a, erm, rift. I now realize, thanks to my friend Chris Gould, that I actually can get 5.1 PCM though the analogue connections of my system. I would blame myself for this oversight, but I'm going to shift the blame to Sony's crappy instruction booklet (which, might I add, didn't tell me anything about the firmware abilities either. Perhaps I was missing pages). Anyway, this revelation led to the revelation that I don't have full DTS-HD MA capabilities, and never will, even if I buy a new system, because my Profile 1.0 Sony simply can't do it (I just now got full TrueHD through the latest firmware upgrade). So then, from now on, just so there isn't any misunderstanding, when I'm reviewing a DTS-HD MA track, I'm actually reviewing a slightly de-awesomed version of the track.
Now that we've got all that out of the way (hopefully forever), we can get back to this collection's super strong PCM tracks. In keeping with the case of the similar video quality across the set, all three films are about equally balanced in audio fury. At World's End is probably the crown jewel of the set, mostly because of the audibly unbelievable maelstrom sequence, which I was a little afraid was going to burst my speakers. A seafaring adventure should lead to plenty of fun water and storm effects in the rear and stereo channels, but in the fantastical world of Pirates of the Caribbean we also find laughing ghosts, growling fish men, and a screaming Kraken lurking about our speakers.
Black Pearl features a cut a paste score, a fact that I actually didn't know until I listened to the commentary track. Now that I know I can't believe I didn't notice. The score is obviously taken from and written by several different sources. It's got the overall feel of Hans Zimmer (actually, I'm pretty sure it recycles cues from Gladiator, and if it doesn't perhaps the composers should have a second look at their skills), but it never quite blends. The later film's scores were apparently more specifically produced by Zimmer, who basically does his best impersonation of himself. However, despite my snotty disapproval of the way famous composers tend to repeat themselves, the scores of Dead Man's Chest and At World's End are impossible to resist, and sound pretty amazing on disc.
Among the bombastic sea storms, frightful monsters, and 'yo-ho' soundtrack, there is no loss of dialogue or definition of sound. The mixes are expertly crafted in that they simply don't muddy, even when all ten thousand gears are revving. The separation of the channels is so impressive that these tracks actually made my modest system, which is set in a pretty small room, move beyond its usual limitations. I don't know if I want to fall to hyperbole and call this the best thing my system's ever heard, but I'm not thinking of anything better off the top of my head.
I start with the first disc of Black Pearl, which features many of the same extras my old DVD featured. We've got the option of three, count 'em, three commentary tracks. First up is a very laid back sit in with Johnny Depp and Gore Verbinski, who mumble through the track, offering only a few fun factoids and congrats for the cast and crew. You can actually skip this one. The second track features a very child like Keira Knightly (who's either nervous, drunk, or honestly annoying), a fun enough Jack Davenport (who seems a little uncomfortable with Knightly), and a separately recorded Jerry Bruckheimer (who sounds about as bored with the process as always). You can probably skip this one too, as it features just as much blank space and lack of info as the previous track. The final track features writers Ted Elliott, Terry Rossio and Jay Wolpert. The track is a bit dry, but it's the most even and informative of the three.
The film can be watched with a 'Scoundrels of the Sea' option, which I was convinced my profile 1.0 wouldn't play. The factoids are also part of a little 'game' where you 'gather' coins, which can be 'cashed-in' as featurettes later. There are a total of thirty four brief featurettes concerning the real lives of pirates, which can be accessed either through the pop-up trivia track, or through their own menu, which awesomely features not only a 'play-all' function, but also a 'play selected' function. That's some sweet interactivity. The featurettes are a bit on the speedy side, but so long as you're paying attention you're likely to absorb the facts, which stand in cool contrast to the fanciful phoniness of the film.
Black Pearl disc two begins with an eight part making of documentary entitled 'An Epic at Sea'. The doc, which was featured on the DVD release, and is not widescreen enhanced or hi-def, is oddly dull. There's a lot of educational information, but most of the doc runs like a made for TV press kit, that mostly hypes the film up while avoiding too many spoilers. Amongst the bragging and general sprint to the end of the thirty eight minute doc, you stand to learn about the casting, the location scouting, the production and costume design, the make-up effects, the stunts, the CG, and the premiere. Then we have eight more featurettes with a play all option under the title 'Fly on the Set'. This is a collection of raw, on-set footage, broken into scenes. And these are followed by eight more featurettes, which also seem a bit made-for-TV, but don't feature a 'play all' option. These include closer looks at the characters, the monkey training, pre-viz, and info about the original ride that inspired the film.
Then we've got nineteen deleted and alternate scenes (Jesus, and I thought the final cut was over-long), all presented in various forms of completion, and all presented in non-anamorphic widescreen (of varying framing). They last about nineteen minutes, and are mostly made up of scenes of the alternate persuasion. The disc is completed with an eleven minute featurette about a boat, Lee Arenberg's ten minute video diary, Bruckheimer's photo diary, a blooper reel, and interactive pirate thing, more behind the scenes stuff, 'Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color' (from 1968, running almost twenty minutes), an image gallery, and trailers.
This brings us to the first disc of Dead Man's Chest. Apparently somebody on DVD production noticed how dull and dry the actors, director, and producer commentaries were on Black Pearl, so they skipped right to the writer's track, which this time with only Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio. The track is ever so slightly self congratulatory, but they're also honest about addressing some of the more valid criticisms. The fellahs do spend quite a bit of time explaining the characters motivations and plot connections that really didn't make it onto the screen, pointing to an understanding of their scripts vast shortcomings (though the Empire Strikes Back parallels are tossed aside, as if their script works the same themes so much better). Disc one also features the 'Liar's Dice' game, which like most DVD and Blu-ray games, is a better idea than a genuinely entertaining game.
Dead Man's Chest disc two begins with 'Charting the Return', an in depth, twenty five minute featurette chronicling the pre-production process of both sequels, which is edited to not include much of the third film for spoiler's sake, considering it hadn't been released at the time of the second film's DVD release. The script and time issues are actually planted early, and honestly explored. The utter chaos of the behind the scenes of Return of the King still wins the 'holy crap' award for getting things done under the wire, but it appears that naysayers like myself have something specific to latch our criticism onto—these films were made to make a release date, not to be the best films they could be. I can also now understand how these films ended up costing as much as the supposedly did ( At World's End cost more then the whole of The Lord of the Rings).
'According to Plan' is a one hour and three minute look at the filming process, built more around staged interviews than 'Charting the Return'. This is a more theatrical featurette, which still features plenty of raw behind the scenes footage, but on-set footage is generally just more interesting to look at then raw footage of people arguing in office buildings. 'According to Plan' becomes a bit of a slog after a while, but the epic scope and epic folly of the production ensures at least a minimal level of interest in even people with lacking attention spans (like me).
'Captain Jack: Head to Toe' is a series of brief featurettes, totaling about twenty five minutes and concerning Johnny Depp's costume, props and make-up, available in a point and click or 'play all' mode. 'Meet Davy Jones' is what it sounds like—a featurette concerning the character of Davy Jones. I could watch Bill Nighy act in grey pajamas all day, and the special effects achievements of the film are so incredible that I found this, personally, to be the most entertaining extra on the disc. 'Creating the Kraken' is more of the same, only concerning the giant scary monster rather then the actor driven monster.
I've actually never been on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, so 'Dead Men Tell No Tales', a featurette concerning the 'reimagineering' of the ride to match the films, really means nothing to me. 'Fly on the Set', a raw footage look at the 'bone cage' sequence doesn't exactly inspire either after hours of other behind the scenes footage has so effectively numbed my brain. And yet, there's still so much more to see, like Jerry Bruckheimer's Photo Diary, footage from the premiere, stills, and bloopers. Then we've got a three part featurette concerning the sword training, two more on set featurettes (I don't know why they've been separated from the others), a three part 'Inside Dead Man's Chest' made for TV looking thing ('Pirate Lore', 'Locations and Sets', and 'Story and Characters'), and a collection of teasers and trailers from around the world.
Curiously, At World's End features no commentary tracks at all. The first disc only houses a series of bloopers. Disc two begins with a Blu-ray exclusive 'Enter the Maelstrom', an impressively interactive look at just about every aspect of the filming of the Maelstrom sequence. Unlike most interactive menu set ups, these menus glide over a six minute, time lapse camera look at the construction of the set and its pieces, as Bruckheimer audibly walks us through the process (on an audio track that can be turned off). During the time lapse several icons appear in different sections of the screen, that when clicked lead to specific featurettes. Very cool, and presented in hi-def and 5.1 surround.
'Keith and the Captain' is a featurette concerned with the pairing of Johnny Depp and Rolling Stone Keith Richards, who was a chief inspiration behind the character of Jack Sparrow. It's sweet and short (under five minutes), and I think I got every third word Richard's spoke. 'Tale of Many Jacks' is another short one (also just under five minutes), in this case focused on the early Davy Jones Locker scene were Jack and many bits of his id interact, and the little Jacks that appear on big Jack's shoulder. They don't go into the poorly constructed brig scene. 'The World of Chow Yun Fat' (only four minutes) doesn't make up for the film's squandering of Fat's skills, but is a nice look at the superstar for unfamiliar viewers. 'Anatomy of a Scene: The Maelstrom' was, I'm sure, a fine addition to the DVD, but is a little moot with the presence of the Blu-ray exclusive interactive extra. At twenty minutes there is some more insight into the digital effects, but otherwise not much new.
'Pirate Maestro' (ten and a half minutes) focuses on Hans Zimmer's scores. Again, despite my issues with repetition in famous composer's scores, these are fantastic scores, perhaps the best in Zimmer's catalogue. Huge credit is due to Zimmer and his little helpers for using untraditional instruments. I noticed the untraditional instruments Hans, and they made me very happy. I only wish some credit had been paid to Ennio Morricone. Zimmer's quoting of Morricone's 'Frank' theme from Once Upon a Time in the West rubbed me the wrong way, not because of its sentiment, but because of its near exact rendition. It is pretty neat that Verbinksi played the guitar on the track though.
Oh my God, isn't there a way to turn off Jolly Roger?
Under 'Masters of Design' you'll find five featurettes concern various art design aspects of the film. These concern the production of the spinney map, the creature design (specifically the groady fish pirates), creepy Singapore and her pirates, Keith Richard's costume, and the book of the Pirate Code Book. The featuettes are closed out with a look at the writing of the 'Hoist the Colours' theme that opens the film, and 'Inside the Brethren Court', a narrative explanation of each of the pirate 'lords', each accessed through a click on their 'piece of eight'.
Next up are two hi-def deleted scenes with optional Gore Verbinski commentary. One scene features Pintel and Ragetti explaining the plot a bit, and the other Jack and Barbosa battling over the ship's wheel like children. The latter scene is actually quite amusing. Verbinski's commentary is almost unbelievably calculated and obviously pre-planned.
So the promise of the Pirates of the Caribbean wasn't quite fulfilled, but even at their worst these films are exceedingly imaginative. If only the talent had the time to develop a fully fleshed out plot for their second and third films I honestly believe these marvels of style over substance could've rivalled The Lord of the Rings. I suppose in the absence of critical acclaim the creators will just have to make do with special effects Oscars, and claim to some of the highest spots on the all time, world wide box-office. There's nothing new about these Blu-ray discs, so don't bother if you already own them (unless you really, really want a cardboard box to put them in), but even non-fans might want to give a rental a spin, because these might be the most impressive discs I've ever seen, from an A/V standpoint. The extras are pretty inconsistent, but I don't think we're missing much of anything when it comes to the making-of process.

The December Patient Parenting column is always about the seasons toys. Toy choices parents make are so important, as toys are the tools of learning for a child. There is so much potential for a childs play time to be infused with excitement, and an enrichment and enhancement of learning.
There are the best toys of the year (last years Leap Frog), the hottest of the year (2009s Zhu Zhu Pets), and the worst ( I would put Zhu Zhus here, also)! And there are just good toys, which I find to be safe, interesting, physically interactive (not button-pushing) and creative.
This year, there are the usual princess and fashion dolls. There is a likeness of boy band sensation One Direction, fairy dolls and Lalaloopsy, a singing, dancing, talking and spinning-hair doll trying to teach diversity.
Then, there is the Furby doll, maybe the hottest toy this year. It is the updated 1998 furry interactive toy robot, evolving into a unique personality based on how the child plays with it. Batteries required.
The LEGO world now is including extensions of Lord of the Rings, Monster Fighters, Ninjago Samuri and Fangpyre Mechs, Super Heros and some other city creations a lot more aggressive than when my boys built pirate ships and space creatures. This is a good example of how the culture of children can be changed from the creativity of ships and space to violence and hostility by toy companies and marketing.
There are Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in full combat gear, Spider-Man Rapid Fire Shooters, Avengers Hulk and Gamma Smash Fists, Dark Knight Launch and Attack Batman, Transformers Prime Weaponizer and Battle Game, Star Wars Maul masks and Mandalorian Fighters, Beyblades Stealth Battlers and Destroyer Domes, and even Nerf Vortex Blasters, Retaliators, Rampage and Elite Hail Fire Blasters. The names of these toys are scary enough need I say more?
Hot Wheels has the new Terrain Twister, a radio-controlled car that takes on all terrains. There are also many trucks, cars, boats and airplanes all radio-controlled. All a child has to do is press buttons, no more using his or her body for anything!
The electronic tablet toys are many and varied. iTikes Discover Map works with Apple products and lets kids explore the world through six distinct maps of music, cultures, countries and more. There is an iTikes microscope and a digital art canvas. There is now a zapped Monopoly and many Nintendo Wii U game systems. Again, just stay inside, sit around and use your fingers to play.
Good Housekeeping has come out with the Best Toy Awards of 2012,
ArchiQuest Architectural Elements Fifty wooden blocks come in fresh shapes and bright hues to stack up and knock down.
Fortune cookie maker Kids mix and roll real dough, form it around fortunes they write, then bake.
Hexbug Hive Habitat Set Children customize a bi-level maze, then have mechanical bugs run amok.
Power Trains Auto Loader City Kids assemble 18 realistic-looking feet of track for a five train motorized locomotive.
Glow Crazy Doodle Dome Childrens sketches disappear on the inside of tent walls using a green light.
Techno Source Code A twistable chain of interlocking blocks that, when kids follow the coded formula, forms a bright flamingo, scorpion or robot.
Micro Chargers Loop Track - These are tiny, collectible cars kids can shoot to incredible speeds.
E-Rangers Headquarters This is a command center for older kids with a swiveling LED spotlight for imaginative scenarios - the working solar panel instills eco-friendly ideas.
LEGO Friends Adventure Camper This is a motor home that comes complete with two dolls, bikes and a surfboard.
Crayola Marker Airbrush This toy uses markers to create spray paint. Includes 12 markers and four stencils.
Ravensburger 3D Building Set - joining curved, flat and hinged puzzle pieces to form famous sites, including Empire State Building and Big Ben.
Wild Planet Night Sight Head-mounted infrared goggles provide children with a 50-foot view in the pitch dark.
Colorfall This shows children how to arrange tiles in ways that, when knocked over, reveal artful designs.
I also like Magna Tiles. These are solid colored, magnetic tiles where children can explore geometric shapes, symmetry and other basic math concepts. They help improve logical thinking and math reasoning skills, introduce spatial problem solving tasks, and my grandchildren love them.
Its interesting to see what the toy companies think kids will like each year at holiday time. Have they thought of safety? Creativity? Durability (both in interest and physical strength of product)? Imagination? Can the toys be used in many different ways? Interaction (and I dont mean with a finger, but with the childs whole body)?
Lets cut out the junk-toy diet of cheap, plastic, automated, noncreative and dangerous toys. Respect children a bit more and really look at their interests, strengths and talents, and introduce them to toys that extend these qualities in some meaningful ways.
Happy playing and learning.

Barry Bovee of Adrian will lead the national veterans organization until September 2013
When he was serving in Vietnam in the mid-1960s, Barry Bovee was most concerned with staying unharmed. Now, he is looking to help veterans and their families.
Bovee, 66, has been elected the Chef de Chemin de Fer, or national commander, of the 40 & 8. He was chosen at the organization's 93rd annual convention Sept. 15 in Fort Mitchell, Ky., and will serve until the next convention in September 2013 in Phoenix.
"I'm a member of a lot of different organizations. But, no matter which group you are in, it is still veterans helping veterans," he said. "You are serving everyone. It is an honor to do so."
Active in veterans' matters for more than 45 years, Bovee is a life member of many organizations, including serving as local commander for the Morenci Post 368 of the American Legion and Annis-Fint VFW Post 1584 of Adrian. Bovee has been a member of the 40 & 8 for 22 years and held a variety of positions nationally and locally with the organization, including commander of the Lenawee La Societe for two years and the state organization in 2004.
"I've pretty much done everything (with 40 & 8)," he said.
As the national commander, Bovee will make the final decisions a commander normally would. He will also be available to travel to other states and local 40 & 8 chapters and be a keynote speaker. It is a pastime that he enjoys.
"I get to meet many great people," he said.
Retired after 40-plus years in the maintenance department at Adrian Public Schools, Bovee and his wife, Linda, have two sons and three grandsons. He is owner and a member of the Addison Defense and Gun Club.
He served with the 4th and 25th U.S. Army infantry divisions in Vietnam in 1966 and 1967. His service ran from 1965 to 1967.
"I was drafted. We went through basic training, advanced training and then were shipped over to Vietnam," he said. "When I got back, I still had 87 days left, but they just thanked me for my service and sent me home."
The 40 & 8 was founded in 1920 as a charitable honor society for World War I veterans. Membership is by invitation only for recognition of service to the American Legion and/or its programs It includes all American wartime veterans.
The organization's programs include nurses training, child welfare, Flags for First Graders, support for the Hansen's Disease Center in Carville, La., and Veterans Affairs Voluntary Service programs and other efforts supporting troops returning from Iraq and Afghanistan, especially those who are injured, Bovee said.
The 40 & 8 moniker derives from the experience of American troops in France in World War I. During the war, French boxcars carried American Doughboys to the front. These boxcars could carry 40 men and eight horses and were emblazoned with a "40/8."
Today, organization chapters meet in symbolic WWI train depots. Besides its local support of veterans, Bovee said the local group maintains the local building on Oakwood Road. The 40 & 8 train is also a big part of many parades in Lenawee County.

Excuses are something I hate to hear from other people, but as I found out this past weekend, I have a whole suitcase of my own.
Excuses are something I hate to hear from other people, but as I found out this past weekend, I have a whole suitcase of my own.
Before I moved here I already knew that I wanted to check out services at a church that my friend and former co-worker pastors.
When Josh Doughty heard of my pending move several weeks earlier he sent me a personal invite to services. The Sunday following my move he noticed my absence, but gave me a break since I had just moved in a day earlier.
The following week we spoke again and he offered another invitation and made sure I knew what time services were.
For the second week in a row my absence didn't go unnoticed.
Several days later I was interviewing Josh and his new bride, Kristen, for the Happily Ever After section you will find in this edition of the newspaper. Josh gently reminded me of service times.
As Sunday loomed nearer my anxious mind was hard at work on excuses.
"Does your church have an 'unspoken' seating arrangement?" I asked him by text.
"What?" was the reply.
"I went to a new church once and I had to move three times before services even started because apparently people in that church ALWAYS sat in the same seat every Sunday! I don't want to mistakenly take someone's seat," I replied.
"No one has assigned seating at our church, unspoken or not," he relied. "You can sit anywhere. Don't forget, 10:15!"
After a busy weekend, Sunday morning dawned bright and early. My head was again filled with excuses why I shouldn't attend.
Eventually I knew that all the excuses in the world wouldn't justify another missed Sunday.
Shortly after arriving at church that morning I received another blow that could have convinced me to turn around and go home. Just as I was walking up to the front door of the church I slipped on a small patch of ice that anyone else could have easily avoided. My feet flew out from under me and I ended up dazed and confused on my back with a skinned knee and the contents of my coat pocket strewn all over the sidewalk.
I picked myself up, marched into church and took a spot in the first empty pew I found, rubbing my skinned knee and grumbling under my breath how this had better be good!
As soon as I sat down someone slid in beside me.
"You can sit anywhere in church except THIS seat," Josh said with a grin. "Glad to see you here!" he said with an assuring squeeze on my shoulder.
After the service I let myself breath. The sermon had been good! Lightening didn't strike me down!
I have learned through trial that I sometimes need to let God take control of the wheel. Last Sunday He had it, although I'm pretty sure He had to wrench the wheel from my white knuckled hands.
I understand that God sometimes takes the long way in order for me to figure out what the point of the journey is.
I found that out later in the day when I was on Facebook. One of my friends from International Falls, who had recently moved to Arizona, posted about how she had attended a new church that day by herself. She included that she was so nervous she considered not going.
Her post inspired me to contact her and share my experience. After a two hour conversation we promised to support and encourage each other as we were both embarking on similar journeys.
Imagine if I had let my excuses win again on Sunday.
That day God took the wheel and drove me to the place that I was most needed and the place I needed to be.

The suggestion is that Rose could not keep up with Harden. But neither could Minnesota's entire defense.
Harden poured in 12 consecutive points, but this surge was louder, backed by roaring "M-V-P!" chants, in the fourth.
Other Rockets shot poorly and, as Gibson had said, the Timberwolves defended well enough through four quarters to have a shot in the final seconds that would have sent the game into overtime.
But Butler spun into an off-balance attempt that clanged off the rim.
Butler – a Tomball native and title-thirsty star of a franchise making its first postseason appearance in 14 years – declined to praise his team or seek excuses for why Harden carved openings and tangled switches.
"You don't just guard him with one guy," Butler said. "Everybody has to be in the correct position to challenge shots, contest him at the rim. More important than anything, if there is a miss, we've gotta get the rebound and take off the other way. But we didn't do any of that tonight."

Stan B Klein While I certainly applaud your critique of this "mindless" research program, you do not go far enough. For starters, we have a review (i.e., Hassin) of conscious vs unconscious processes -- yet never once are we told what consciousness of unconsciousness consist in. More, what flavor of "consciousness" is the YIP placed in opposition to? Sentience? Qualia? Self-consciousness? And so forth. No one knows. Entirely expected from academic psychology; but one might hope for more when the ostensible demonstrations (and that is ALL they are -- since there are no conceptually-grounded theories on offer concerning the targets of inquiry) are about consciousness and its cognates. Had there been an attempt to specify with some theoretically rigor what flavor of consciousness YIC is dealing in, then Dennett's just so story (I guess I forgot to pay sufficient attention to the cognition and consciousness fossil exhibit the last time I visited the Smithsonian) might have seemed ludicrous on its face. Are we really to believe there were no sentient beings until 50,000 years ago? (or 1.8M, or whatever?) That animals did not feel pain or experience their perceptions (in the sense of "what it is like") until rather recently? And what is positioned in (temporal) comparison to late-breaking consciousness? Reading and math!– which were not part of the fossil OR historical records until several thousand years ago. Some great supporting evidence YIC marshals. Did the idea that we have unconscious processes that underwrite our experiential first-person being just become apparent to social psychology? It would seem so. Reminds me of neuroscience's big discovery a few years back that, via correlative imaging techniques we "finally know" that memory is not necessarily a snapshot of past experience! Munsterberg (1909) and Bartlett (1932) must be spinning in their graves.

Of the city's 1,482 handicap ramps at street corners, 1,173 do not meet federal standards.
Tuesday night, the Rolla City Council took a step toward changing that by approving an ordinance authorizing Mayor Bill Jenks to enter into a grant agreement with the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission.
"We estimate this proposed project will replace approximately 225 ramps or about one-fifth of the ramps out of compliance," Public Works Director Steve Hargis said. "The project would be constructed by contract out of next year's fiscal budget."
Hargis explained that for several years, the city has built many miles of sidewalks, much of the work done with grant money from the Missouri Department of Transportation.
"In 2011, handicap standards were adopted for use on facilities in the public right of way, Up until the new standards were adopted, there was no clear guideline," Hargis said.
What the federal requirements are now is the use of "truncated domes." This is a mat, either plastic or metal, that is installed along the border of the sidewalk and the street.
The small "domes" on the mat can be walked over or rolled over with a wheelchair. Their value is to warn pedestrians who are blind or visually impaired that they are near traffic.
"We applied and have received an offer for federal enhancement funs to assist us in working toward compliance with the new standard," Hargis said.
The federal grant obtained through the state highway agency totals $487,015 with the city's match being $128,923.
The grant will cover the construction costs for making handicapped access ramps compliant with federal standards. "Engineering and inspection will be done by city of Rolla staff," Hargis said.

It's been over five years since we've had the pleasure of murdering anything as Master Chief. Following the conclusion of what we'll have to soon start calling the original trilogy, or perhaps the conclusion of the Covenant War if you include Halo: Reach and ODST in the discussion, Master Chief finally returns.
As you probably know by now, Master Chief was left floating in space, heading into a cryogenic tube at the end of Halo 3, while most of the universe thought he was dead. If you didn't know that, sorry. Spoilers. But the story continues where the final clip of Master Chief left off, with the remains of the UNSC ship Forward Unto Dawn orbiting a mysterious planet.
With Bungie gone, the duties have fallen to 343 Industries, who are promising a new trilogy of games, featuring a new threat and an original new storyline, ensuring that we are far from done with the iconic Master Chief.
This is easily one of, if not the most anticipated game of the year. So to prepare you for the release on Tuesday, November 6, we have collected all the Halo 4 news to prepare you for the release, including our review. Just click on the banner below and get ready to step into the giant shoes of Master Chief once again.

Of the last six pet dogs that have shared their lives with us, three died of cancer.
Of the last six pet dogs that have shared their lives with us, three died of cancer. It seems to be the norm these days that many dogs will develop cancer. Cancer research shows that it is the number one cause of death in dogs older than 10.
Just as it is in humans, a diagnosis of cancer is not necessarily a death sentence. It is estimated that over 60 percent of malignancies can be cured. In the case of incurable cancers, treatments available today can markedly improve quality and length of life.
Many factors cause what may seem to be an increase in cancer incidence in dogs. In the past, dogs would become ill and pass away with undiagnosed cancer. Twenty years ago, most people did not even know dogs got cancer. Veterinary oncology has progressed amazingly in the past two decades. More dogs are now seen regularly by veterinarians and malignancies identified as the cause of illness. With the use of vaccines and improved preventive care, dogs are living longer and reaching the age of higher cancer incidence.
The cause of cancer continues to be researched extensively and there are still a lot of unknowns. A genetic component makes some breeds more prone to specific cancers. Exposure to carcinogens such as secondary cigarette smoke and lawn chemicals can cause cell mutations that lead to cancer. A complex interaction of genetics and the environment seems to contribute to the development of both canine and human cancers.
There is a new national study being conducted by veterinary oncologists at Colorado State University. This study, funded by The Morris Animal Foundation, hopes to learn more about why some dogs get cancer. They will study Golden Retrievers over their entire lives because Goldens are available in large numbers and have a higher risk of developing cancer. These dogs must be under the age of 2 and have a pedigree that can be traced back at least three generations.
Dr. Rodney Page, principle investigator of the study, said The Golden Retriever Lifetime Study would be the largest and longest dog study ever conducted. They plan to include 3,000 dogs and will track their lives, usually a 10-to-14-year span, for genetic, nutritional and environmental risks. The study will focus on bone cancer, lymphoma and hemangiosarcoma (cancer in the blood vessels). All three of these cancers can be fatal to dogs. They also expect the data to yield information about other dog diseases, like arthritis, hip dysplasia, diabetes, hormonal and skin disorders and epilepsy.
Dog-years are a benefit to researching ailments found in both dogs and humans, because studying a dog for 10 years is akin to studying a human for 60 or 70 years, said Dr. Wayne Jensen, the Morris Animal Foundation's chief scientific officer and executive director. The study will also try to measure factors in a dog's life, such as how fun and an owner's love affect the animal's health and longevity. That will be attempted through questions about the number of children or other pets in the owner's family, the amount of time spent together …and the dog's sleeping spot.
The warning signs of cancer in dogs are very similar to those in people. A lump or a bump, a wound that does not heal, any kind of swelling, enlarged lymph nodes, a lameness or swelling in the bone, abnormal bleeding. Those are all classic signs. However, sometimes there are little or no signs, at least early on. So any time an animal is not feeling well, or there is something abnormal or not quite right, the owner needs to bring it to the attention of their veterinarian.
There are ways you can help improve your dog's chances of beating cancer. Sterilization will prevent several cancers in male and female dogs. Good oral care and inspection are important. Early identification and immediate treatment can markedly increase your pet's chances for survival. This is accomplished by periodic inspection of your pet at home looking for changes or signs followed by regular veterinary check-ups.

The Neosho Parks, Recreation and Golf Course board voted Tuesday evening to pass a resolution lending support to the renovation of the aged staircase in Big Spring Park.
The Neosho Parks, Recreation and Golf Course board voted Tuesday evening to pass a resolution lending support to the renovation of the aged staircase in Big Spring Park.
With six of the seven members present, the board revisited the same agenda items as in their Nov. 13 meeting, when only four members were in attendance and a quorum was not reached.
The board members voted 6-0 to pass the resolution, which states the board's support for the project, and expresses their hope that it can be achieved through donations, fundraisers and city assistance.
Steve Hart, board member and the city's mayor pro tem, said it is the council's hope that the staircase can be repaired.
"Anything that's been there since 1880 probably needs to be saved," Hart said.
Linda Blake, of the Newton County Historical Society, told council members in an earlier meeting that the concrete steps had originally been poured in 1923, and were preceded by a wooden staircase, which dated back to at least the 1880s.
The concrete stairs, which connect west Spring Street with High Street, have been temporarily closed off for months, as safety issues regarding their condition have arisen.
Troy Royer, Neosho city manager, said Mike Franks and Jason Stipp, both of the Neosho Area Community Foundation, have expressed interest on behalf of the foundation in helping to fund or fund raise for the stairs project.
Royer said the city also hopes that other community members will be able to offer help as well, though he said the city will do all that they can to help finance the project.
Royer said the city's engineer recently examined the stairs, per the council's wishes, and indicated that the city's plan to lay down rebar on the existing staircase and then overlay the steps with concrete is a viable option.
While the engineer's estimate came to $54,700 total for the project, Dana Daniel, Neosho's development services director, said he believes the city could get the project done for approximately $30,000.
Royer said work would likely not begin on the steps until at least the spring, and said he and Daniel would review the parks budget, to determine their financial options, though he indicated that there is little cushion in that budget.
The parks board also voted to endorse a resolution making changes to some golf course fees and policies.
Their vote is merely a recommendation, as the changes still have to be presented to the city council at their next meeting, set for Tuesday, Dec. 18.
The proposed changes include eliminating the Monday through noon Friday restriction on annual golf course passes, which would instead allow those holding annual passes to play using their passes seven days per week.
It will also be proposed to council that the golf course no longer accept annual passes for tournament play, and instead charge participants the tournament fee.
An annual pass is $1,200 and golf course manager Justin Beck told the board in their Nov. 13 meeting that there are less than 50 golfers who hold the year-round pass.
If approved by council, the proposed changes would also adjust the weekend and holiday charges for seniors to a set $25 fee.
Currently, there is no senior fee set for weekends.
Veterans with a military I.D. would also receive a discount, which would be the posted senior fee at that time.
The board also took up charges for younger golfers.
Golfers ages 15 and under would be charged a flat $5 fee seven days per week, while those ages 16-18 would pay normal adult fees, or could purchase a junior golfer pass for $140.
The board also heard an update from Royer regarding the city's plans to make the golf course a city-run operation.
Beck, who is currently contracted to manage the golf course, submitted his 90-day notice to the city in mid-November, and at their Dec. 4 council meeting, council members gave Royer the OK to pursue the city-run course, following Beck's departure.
Hart told the parks board Tuesday that the switch isn't set in stone, but is worth a try.
"It's a good time to try it and we have great department heads now all through the city," Hart said. "We're just hoping that same can transfer out here and if it doesn't we can revisit it."
Royer said he hopes to have a new golf course superintendent hired by mid-to-late January to begin the transition.
The board also voted Tuesday evening to accept a mission statement for their four-month old board.
The newly adopted mission statement reads, "To enrich the lives of Neosho citizens by providing accessible public places and activities."
The Neosho Parks, Recreation and Golf Course board was formed in August, through the merging of the Golf Course Board and the Parks and Recreation Committee.
According to city ordinance, the board has nine seats, though upon the board chairman's recommendation to council, the city council voted on first reading Dec. 4 to cut that board down to seven members.
The board members briefly discussed asking to remain a nine-member board at their Tuesday evening meeting, though ultimately decided to stick with the reduction to seven seats.
The city council is expected to take a final vote on that change in their Dec. 18 meeting.
The next Parks, Recreation and Golf Course board meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 15 at the Neosho Municipal Golf Course.

Manchester West High closure on the tableBy MARK HAYWARD
New Hampshire Union Leader
February 23. 2013 10:12PM
School redistricting proposal reportThe following is from a report titled "2013 Manchester School District Redistricting Proposal." It appears on Page 8 as Recommendation No. 3.
-- High School Attendance Areas: With current enrollment numbers, there is capacity to consolidate the three (3) high schools into two (2) buildings (Central and Memorial). The consolidation would allow for the introduction of a new educational model for Manchester High School-West.
• Any attempt to implement a consolidation plan as well as introducing a new educational model requires a comprehensive plan and the appropriate vetting of the concept.
• No adjustments should be planned for the 2013-2014 school year.
• The setting date for consolidation and implementation should be for the 2014-2015 school (year).
• The consolidation would place the percentage of capacity in the high 90th percentile for both schools. This is aBody Bold/List Bold: not No character style: sound practice.
MANCHESTER - It can be found nestled in Page 8, embedded within Recommendation No. 3, of the redistricting report that was quickly written this year by outgoing school Superintendent Tom Brennan.
School board members - especially vocal West Side member John Avard - caution that nothing has been decided. But the words have reverberated throughout the West Side, which worries its landmark high school may close within two years.
"With current enrollment numbers, there is capacity to consolidate the three (3) high schools into two (2) buildings (Central and Memorial)," the report reads.
West Side residents and school board officials point out that the report cautions against the consolidation and stresses that nothing has been decided.
But worries undeniably exist, given last month's under-pressure resignation of West High Principal MaryEllen McGorry, difficult school budgets and an ongoing dispute with Hooksett over city high schools.
"I don't know what to think of all the publicity," said Pauline Roth, a treasurer with the West High booster club. "It's pretty sad when you read about West and it's all a negative."
West High is the smallest of the city's three high schools. It schools 1,167 students, according to enrollments provided Friday by the school district. Of those, 143 are from neighboring Hooksett, which has said the city is in breach of its agreement to properly educate Hooksett high school students. The town wants out of the contract and wants to enroll its children in schools outside Manchester.
"Today, I have ruled out closing West, but I'm only one vote on the school board," Mayor Ted Gatsas said Friday. He also said there's no telling what the future will hold.
Ask him about West, and Gatsas talks about Hooksett. He said the tuition agreement calls for the city and Hooksett to discuss making West the designated high school for Hooksett, but those discussions haven't taken place. He said Hooksett needs to stop approving transfers to schools outside of Manchester. And he said the town should rescind its letter of breach.
Gatsas said many options exist for West. He mentioned turning the school into an academy, one of the suggestions in a 2007 report that was written after Bedford exited West. None of the recommendations were ever implemented.
He said West could become a STEAM academy - one where science, technology, engineering, arts and math are emphasized. "Certainly, we would want to make it the best high school in the state of New Hampshire," he said.
West Side residents said they embrace their school with as much pride as parents and students of Central and Memorial.
Gary Therrien, president of the West High Booster Club, said the media is not a fan of West.
But the school has its good points: A lacrosse coach recently restarted the program and raised enough money to purchase equipment. West is home to the city's only four-year theater program, which traveled to Scotland for a competition last summer. And West is also home to the city's only Junior ROTC program.
Therrien said he doesn't think the city will close the school, but it would be a detriment to the city.
"Most students at West walk to school because of its location. Many students that now get to play sports would not be able to at the other schools because they have only played for a year or two," he said. "Closing West is an easy solution as opposed to redistricting the city."
Avard said closing West would affect 1,000 students. He said West is not half-empty, as many believe. It also is the magnet school for autistic children and children with emotional disorders; they need smaller classes than the average student, he said.
He also disputes recently publicized remarks that school board committees unanimously approved recommendations on what to do about West. The Manchester school board recently told Brennan to go forward with revisions to elementary school boundaries, but neither committee has acted on the recommendations that involve West, Avard said.
"It's an open question," Avard said. "There's no set plan being brought forward saying this is what they're going to do."
The report does cry for action.
Manchester school enrollment is down about 1,500 from what it was seven years ago.
Over the next nine years, city school officials see little change in city school K-12 enrollment, which will vary from 15,243 to 15,705, according to projections. At present, 549 of those students are Hooksett high school students, most of whom attend Central or West.
The report notes that in 2007 recommendations were made to convert West into a charter school, a magnet school or an academy.
Both Therrien and Roth have a simpler notion: redistrict city high schools to even the population and bring more students to West. As a smaller school, West has lost girls' field hockey and lacrosse, Roth said. And Avard has fought a recent plan to set minimum class sizes, worrying about the effect on West.
However, both the 2013 and 2007 redistricting proposals said it would be difficult to move students who live east of the Merrimack River to West High. School locations and water barriers restrict boundary adjustments, the reports say.
The 2013 redistricting proposal notes that Northwest Elementary is overcrowded, and it encourages a fresh look at controversial 2007 recommendations for the West Side. Those called for:
-- Turning the three West Side elementary schools into early elementary schools (pre-K through Grade 3).
-- Converting Parkside Middle School into an upper elementary school (Grades 4 through 6).
-- Hosting Grades 7 through 12 at West High School.
Physical barriers would have to be erected at West to keep the middle school students separate from high school students, Avard said. He's no fan of the idea.
"What are you correcting? What are you fixing?" Avard said. "It's not going to improve West, it's going to shuffle students from one school to another."

Manchester barn destroyed in two-alarm fire; Valley Street apartment burnsBy PAT GROSSMITH
New Hampshire Union Leader
December 18. 2012 11:55PM
(Jeffrey Hastings)
MANCHESTER - A two-alarm blaze, reported late last night by motorists traveling along Interstate 293, destroyed a barn on South Mammoth Road.
District Fire Chief Robert Corbeil said the 50-by-120-foot barn was fully in flames - top to bottom and end to end - when firefighters arrived after being called at 11:14 p.m. State and Manchester police were called to handle rubberneckers on the highway, slowing down traffic and creating a possible hazard.
Corbeil said the 415 S. Mammoth Road property is up for sale, and the owner, Elaine Dolbec of Sanbornton, just recently moved the cows to Auburn so there were no animals inside the barn. However, about 100 bales of hay provided fuel for the flames, which ultimately destroyed the barn.
Fire crews, who extinguished the blaze in about 45 minutes, also were hampered in getting to it because the barn sits 350 feet back from South Mammoth Road and is reached only by a single dirt road, Corbeil explained. 'We could only get one engine in there,' he said.
Firefighters used more than 3,000 feet of water hose, which they hooked to three different hydrants, in putting out the blaze.
About two weeks ago, firefighters were at the property for a fire in an older mobile home parked in front of the barn. The Dec. 5 blaze destroyed the mobile home, the cause of which remains undetermined.
Five years ago, a deadly blaze at the 401 S. Mammoth Road farmhouse claimed the life of farmer John Giovagnoli, 84. Giovagnoli and two tenants made it out of the burning home, but Giovagnoli lost his life when he ran back inside. That fire started in the basement where there was a wood stove.
As firefighters battled the barn blaze, another fire broke out just before 1 a.m. in a third-floor apartment at 981 Valley St. Manchester firefighters, as well as crews from Auburn and Londonderry, were dispatched to the scene because city fire crews were tied up at the barn fire.
When they arrived, flames were shooting out a third-floor window. Firefighters searched the entire building, but everyone already had made it out.
As they reached the third floor, firefighters encountered flames in the hallway; adjacent bedrooms were also in flames. Visibility was nil.
Still, firefighters extinguished the fire in 10 minutes, containing it to the third floor although the two apartments below suffered some water and smoke damage.
Damage is estimated at $75,000 and the apartment's two residents will be displaced for some time, fire officials said.
Corbeil said what caused the fire is undetermined, but investigators are leaning toward an accidental cause.
The cause of the barn fire and how it started is unknown, but Corbeil said investigators will look at all possibilities, including arson, considering the earlier fire in the mobile home.

Christmas Brancholier
I started off making a big rectangle and strung that to the center of the chandlier using fishing line.
Then I filled out with extra branches, using some battery operated lights and hung some glittered snowflakes over the table.
Now I just have to finish decorating and get cooking. How is everyone doing on their holiday prep?

Gorgeous. I love it.ReplyDelete
I use branches from the outdoors all the time (Im from Jersey...lol) This I havent done yet, but I love the way it turned out. Holidays are in full swing along with birthdays here. I wish you and yours a Happy Holiday season!ReplyDelete
I love the twist on the old hang ornaments from your lights!! It is amazing what you can do with the materials you have around you.ReplyDelete
I haven't even started making a Christmas menu, yikes!
My holiday prep is done! Then again, I'm not having any guests over, so I'm just decorating for myself. But that's half the fun anyway, isn't it?ReplyDelete
I looooooooooove this look! I'm a branch lover, they always always look fab! I did this last year in my dining room with some HUGE manzanita branches and I loved it so much it didn't come down until February. Such a festive and fun display, so so so pretty!ReplyDelete
I'm digging the whimsical woodland/wonderland feel of the twigs. Niiiice!ReplyDelete
Ugh, I'm so very behind this year w/ the basement goings-ons. We finally finished buying gifts & last night we slapped up som twinkle lights & those very same glitter snowflakes (silver) & called it a day.
I'm impressed with your ability to make sticks in a chandelier look awesome. They would look like sticks shoved in a chandelier if I tried this. Nice work!!ReplyDelete
Stunning as usual!ReplyDelete
That is the coolest!ReplyDelete
Ha! I made a brancholier out of an old dead key lime tree...for the season...years ago. It is STILL up! It does get seasonally decorated from time to time!ReplyDelete
Yours looks fab!
I see a lot of people hanging things off their chandeliers but I am nervous about adding a lot of weight to mine. Does any one else fear that?ReplyDelete
Very pretty. Thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete
What a great friend to help out with the branches! I love the look!ReplyDelete
Lovely! I saw something similar in Burdick's chocolates in Harvard Square. I thought I might give a go this year but I was too intimidated by it. I was trying to hide a ceiling fan I am not thrilled with. Next year I hope to have a chandelier in its place.ReplyDelete
Yours is nicely done!
WOW, you rock! This looks fantastic!ReplyDelete
This is fabulously festive! You may have a hard time taking it down after the holidays! JanellReplyDelete
WOW...so cool. You always make your home looks so amazing during the Holiday...wish I knew you when i lived in NYC... :)))ReplyDelete
merry christmas!
Great idea. I'm your newest follower. Love your blog. :)ReplyDelete
Love ideas that make impact but cost next to nothing. Beautiful!ReplyDelete
So cool! Any touch of nature is right up my alley. Love your snowflake additions too!ReplyDelete
Here's my twiggy version on my own chandelier. :)
- Psotom018:04 PM
Your home looks absolutely beautiful! I'm looking around for inspirations and ran into your blog a few months ago and I must say I'm a real fan. We just purchased a two bedroom in Prospect Heights and although it's not a brownstone (I wish...) we want to make it very nice and bring back some of it's charm. Can't wait to see all the future posts.ReplyDelete

With questions and concerns circulating regarding potential federal legislation on firearms regulation, local legislators have come out overwhelmingly against any across-the-board laws and mandates.
With questions and concerns circulating regarding potential federal legislation on firearms regulation, local legislators have come out overwhelmingly against any across-the-board laws and mandates.
"I absolutely believe gun issues should be determined on the local level. I would love for our schools, local law enforcement, and community leaders to have a say in our second amendment rights," Rep. Justin Wood (R-Shawnee) said.
"I am not in favor of disarming or making it harder to obtain guns for law abiding Oklahoma residents, especially not by the hands of federal government," he added.
Instead of using gun regulation to solve the growing issue of gun violence, Wood suggests implementing stronger anti-bullying policies and enacting a stronger mental health system.
Rep. Tom Newell (R-Seminole) questioned the legality of the federal government being able to pass such regulation.
"The Constitution only gives the federal government the ability to regulate interstate commerce," Newell said.
He added that he would support local regulation – within reason. He said he doesn't want to see guns in the hands of criminals, nor does he want to take guns away from law-abiding citizens. Any regulations would have to strike a balance, Newell said.
He said further that he believes citizens have "a right to protect themselves," especially since police and other law enforcement cannot be everywhere at once.
Newell also questioned the logic of passing more laws to regulate criminals.
"Every time they pass another regulation they hurt law-abiding citizens," he said, adding that criminals by definition do not follow the law.
"If they (criminals) know everyone is unarmed that gives them free reign," Newell said.
Josh Cockroft (R-Tecumseh) also came out against federal regulations.
"There's been a lot of fear, a lot of debate, and a lot of discussion about what could be coming down," from the federal level, Cockroft said.
In response to this, Cockroft worked with several other state legislators to draft House Bill 2021, which exempts firearms, accessories, and ammunition made in the state of Oklahoma from federal regulations.
The measure passed the House and will move to the Senate to be voted on.
"It's my belief that the second amendment guarantees individuals the right to bear arms," he said. "I think the second amendment is one of the most clear provisions in the Constitution."
Another gun measure which recently passed the House, and was voted for by Cockroft, Wood, and Newell, is House Bill 1062. This would allow teachers to become CLEET trained and carry guns at school.
"We want to make sure we have a way to make sure students are protected," Cockroft said.
An important aspect of this bill is that individual districts have the opportunity to decide whether or not to allow their teachers to participate – the bill does not include mandates.
"Each school has the ability to say, 'yes, we have to put these policies in place,' or 'no, we don't.' This at least gives them the option," Cockroft said.

Three shows will be featured with a 7:30 p.m. show set for Friday, March 15 and Saturday, March 16 followed by a matinee at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, March 17.
Robin Hood and his Merry Men will be wandering through town this weekend. Students from Carmi-White County High School will present, "The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood" at the auditorium at CWCHS. Three shows will be featured with a 7:30 p.m. show set for Friday, March 15 and Saturday, March 16 followed by a matinee at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, March 17.
The cast and crew from the drama department have been making their rounds to area schools, nursing homes and businesses the past week to help promote the play. Director Sherry Passmore noted the group usually does a musical, but the students requested a play this year. She wanted to utilize a script with some humor, and decided on "The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood," which is a mix of Mel Brooks and Monty Python humor.
Lizzie Cribbs narrates the play while Shane Trail, a sophomore, plays the lead, Robin Hood. Eric Arnold steps in to fulfill the role as Prince John while John Lamp portrays the not-so-honorable Sheriff of Nottingham. Jessica Bovenkerk was cast as Maid Marion. Robin Hood is backed up by several Merry Men, played by Alli Haley, Hailey Winkleman, Luke Allen and River "Levi" Jordan. Michael Trail plays Friar Tuck and Tangela Grant has the role of Lady in Waiting.
Sheriff of Nottingham has backup as well. The fawning ladies are portrayed by Kelli Newman, Jordan Jones, Adrian Lamp, Heather McCully, Rayann Midkiff, Logan Pugsley, Frencheska Robinson, Tabitha Mick, Faith Hohman and Chaselyn Craig.
Codi Cross has several roles to fulfill during the play, including guard, rich man and Voice of King Richard. He is joined on stage by the poor lady, played by Jordan Jones.
The cast of 20 is joined by a large group of students behind the scenes that are in charge of everything from props to lighting to costumes. Kelli Newman serves as the student director for the play. The stage manager is Taylor Evans while the technical manager is Spencer Coe. The sound and stage crew includes Hannah Templeton, Payton Tibbs, Bailey Chapman, Joshua Pierce and Kassidy Knight. Kristian Newman oversees the lights for the play while Quinton Browning serves as the technical assistant. Micah Sheraden is over the makeup and assists the crew while the house players are Cassie Mick, Shiann Bidabe and Brianna Aud.
Ushers for the play are Holly Porter, Katharine Woodard, Tiffany Winkleman, Moirah, Elizabeth Bryant and Kreigh Hollingsworth. Publicity for the play was handled by Jessica Bovenkerk, Lizzie Cribbs, Alli Haley, Adrian Lamp, Tabitha Mick, Cassie Mick, Rachel Fleming, Katharine Woodard, Taylor Evans, Jordan Jones, Tangela Grant and Codi Cross.
Those assisting with the set and the painting includes Luke Allen, Alli Haley, Adrian Lamp, Rayann Midkiff, Codi Cross, Logan Pugsley, Kristian Newman, Kelli Newman, Shane Trail, John Lamp, Tangela Grant, Michael Trail, Hailey Winkleman, Jordan Jones, River "Levi" Jordan, Heather McCully, Frencheska Robinson, Faith Hohman, Hannah Templeton and Micah Sheraden.
Sign holders, which encourage audience participation during the play, include Micah Sheraden and Kreigh Hollingsworth.
Tickets to the play are $8 for adults and $4 for students. However, admission will be reduced by $1 for those who bring in a non-perishable item for the group's canned food drive.

Re: What Book Are You Currently Reading? Part V
Posted: Tue Dec 18, 2012 8:59 pm
I'm responding again to this because I remembered liking the book so much when it came out that I decided to reread it. I first read it for the Challenger investigation and the way Feynman was treated by some commission members (though he had some powerful allies). This time I loved the whole book and everything about Feynman and realized how much he was like Einstein, brilliant, endlessly questioning, and talented in so many areas.ruralavalon wrote:What do You care What Other People Think?, by Richard P. Feynman. Includes an interesting discussion of the investigation of the space shuttle Challenger disaster.

Editor's note: This is being reprinted after its original publication on page A5 of the Jan. 12 Foster's Daily Democrat included incorrect caption information supplied to the newspaper.
DOVER — Abby Field of the Dover Chapter 567 Women of the Moose recently met with Connie Harris, Resident Council President of Riverside Rest Home to make a donation to the Resident Bus Fund.
Harris, who chairs the Resident Bus Fund Committee, started the fund as a grassroots effort to involve the community in helping to raise funds for the much needed bus.
The current bus, purchased in 1997, was on the list for replacement a few years ago. As the economy worsened and county funding to Riverside Rest Home became more and more challenged, Riverside was left with very difficult funding decisions. Replacement of the 1997 bus became impossible so safety-related repairs were made. Knowing that the repairs will not last forever, the resident council spearheaded a fundraising effort that will be combined with future county funding to ultimately replace the current bus.
Resident trips outside of Riverside are a very important part of the residents' social life, so having reliable bus transportation is a must. Thanks to the efforts of the Riverside Rest Home Residents Council and the generous donations from the community, the Resident Bus Fund is a great first step to reaching the goal.
The Dover Women of the Moose have been delivering a Christmas card to each resident of Riverside for over 40 years, and also have been giving the Home a donation, which has been used as they see fit. The donation is usually $100.
