Memoir by '60s Dylan tour manager out in 2014
October 1, 2013
NEW YORK (AP) — A posthumous memoir by Bob Dylan's tour manager during the 1960s is due out next September.
St. Martin's Press announced Tuesday that it had acquired "Another Side of Bob Dylan," by Victor Maymudes (may-'MOO-dess), who died in 2001. The book is being written by Maymudes' son, Jacob, and will be based on recollections the elder Maymudes tape recorded shortly before his death.
Victor Maymudes first met Dylan in Greenwich Village in the early 1960s and for a few years served as his tour manager, a role he also filled in the 1980s and '90s. According to St. Martin's, the memoir will include Maymudes' account of life on the road with Dylan, Dylan's first meeting with the Beatles and his romances with Joan Baez and others.

text: Cup update from Stephen Barclay. If anybody gets some pix of the construction going on the piers, please post it. ACEA CEO Stephen Barclay (© ACEA 2013 / Photo: Gilles Martin-Raget) The Countdown has started! We've taken possession of the new cruise ship terminal and are now starting to transform all of Piers 27 and 29 into what will become the America's Cup Park. The America's Cup Park and America's Cup Village (Marina Green) will be the two major event locations during the "Summer of Racing" here in San Francisco. These sites will be linked by a two-mile "fan walk" along the Embarcadero, starting from Pier 27 and passing Pier 39, SS Jeremiah O'Brien at Pier 45, Aquatic Park and around to Marina Green. We've also announced the first acts in our concert series at America's Cup Park: Imagine Dragons (May 31), Sting (June 2), Train (Aug 11) and Jason Mraz (Sep 1). We'll announce more soon, including talented acts from other genres. On that score, we're happy that representatives from San Francisco's symphony and opera committees have agreed to join our Arts & Entertainment Steering Committee, and we look forward to them entertaining San Franciscans over the summer. I am also pleased to say that we have had several very productive meetings with our neighbors to ensure these concerts are a positive experience for all. Ticket sales for the Summer of Racing are proceeding well. We have been overwhelmed at the uptake of season passes, which entitle the holder to a bleacher seat and dedicated food and beverage concessions at every race… and there are around 50 race days! That said there are great vantage points around the San Francisco waterfront where you can watch the America's Cup races for free. But if you want a bleacher seat in the best spots, a ticket to an official site or a corporate hospitality table within America's Cup Park, then you are able to purchase tickets via the SF Giants and Sportsmark at the America's Cup website. Before the Summer of Racing in San Francisco commences, the last of the America's Cup World Series regattas takes place in Naples next month. This will bring to a close a series of regattas that have taken us from Portugal to England, from San Diego to Naples, Venice and Newport. We had two fantastic events here in San Francisco last year, the October event in collaboration with Fleet Week. The image of the Blue Angels flying in formation above the America's Cup AC45 fleet is a lasting memory for many of us. And I think it's safe to say this summer is going to generate more than its share of special moments and memories. As I say, the countdown has started.

I dunno if I'd say good when it comes to JS being red-flagged... Even if you don't particularly like his game, all this does is limit our draft options.
If Portland or Sacrament were high on Sully and took him early, it would have increased our chances of getting a better talent in the draft. Now that he's been flagged, our options potentially decrease.
Sullinger is the second coming of Oliver Miller. Kind of heavy set, not a ton of skills but plays tough around the basket. The NBA has shifted. Fundamentals, which Sullinger has, are out the door and athleticism is really all most of these players possess.

Despite what many (including myself) thought when EA announced they would support the Mac platform, the games EA will release are actually not native ports - instead, they will use Transgaming's Cider engine, a Wine-like wrapper for running Windows games on Intel Macs. This news was found in a Transgaming press release. Apart from the fact that this might negatively affect performance, it also means PowerPC Macs will not be able to play these games.

MANKATO, Minn.—A jury has cleared a former Mankato Clinic eye doctor of sexual assaulting two of his patients.
The Free Press (http://bit.ly/Zzu0Qi) reports that Todd Gavin faced two felony and two gross misdemeanor charges related to exams conducted in 2010 after which two women claimed they had been made to remove their clothing were inappropriately touched by Gavin.
Assistant Blue Earth County Attorney Michael Hanson told jurors Gavin had taken advantage of the women. Gavin's defense team insisted the veteran eye doctor had done nothing improper and was being punished for being thorough.
The accusers were women seen back-to-back by Gavin in 2010. One woman reported an alleged assault the next day. The second reported her allegation weeks later.
Gavin's attorneys insisted the patients had misunderstood their client's methods.

New health insurer to enter NH marketplace in 2015
The Affordable Care Act's health insurance marketplace will have another option beginning in 2015.
Minuteman Health Inc. of Massachusetts has been approved by the Department of Health and Human Services to expand into New Hampshire and form a new health insurance co-op, according to U.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter, D-N.H.
Currently, Anthem is the only insurer providing health insurance coverage in the New Hampshire marketplace under the Affordable Care Act, commonly known as ObamaCare.
"Today's announcement means that current Anthem individual market consumers will be able to keep their hospitals and doctors until next year's open enrollment, when they will have at least two insurers competing for their business," Shea-Porter said. "I am pleased that New Hampshire families and individuals will have more choices for coverage, and I will continue working to increase competition and drive down health care costs."
Granite State residents will be able to sign up for plans through the new co-op during 2014 open enrollment, with coverage beginning Jan. 1, 2015, Shea-Porter said.
Americans for Prosperity – New Hampshire (AFP-NH) issued a statement Thursday afternoon saying Minuteman Health currently operates in Massachusetts, where they have a provider network that consists of just 25 of the over 100 hospitals across that state. Currently, only Anthem offers policies through the exchange, and has provided a "narrow network" of 16 of the state's 26 hospitals where covered individuals can get care.
"While it's a positive that there will no longer be a monopoly within the ObamaCare exchanges for one insurer, it's worth noting that the federal government is adding an insurer that runs an even narrower network in Massachusetts than Anthem's new New Hampshire network," said Greg Moore, AFP-NH state director. "Minuteman's network doesn't cover a number of major Massachusetts hospitals, like Mass General, Brigham & Women's, Children's Hospital or even Boston Medical Center. Their track record shows that they are likely to have an even smaller network in the Granite State than Anthem's reduced list. While some competition is better than none, this news is unlikely to offer any relief to those individuals who have lost access to their local hospital under ObamaCare insurance policies."

|We check out the new SF gallery Ever Gold and 111 Minna's first Thursdays' shows.
Ever Gold
441 O'Farrell St. SF, CA, 94102
Open Wed. through Sat. 3 - 8pm
artists include: Ryan Coffey, AA Hurry, Mary Joy Scott, Colin Hill, Steve Johnson, Mardi Brayton, Jeremiah Jenkins, A.L.W (paris), Beau Abbot, Jason Grabowski, Kit Rosenberg, and more.
Good vibes at this newish gallery space down in the Tenderloin run by a collective of SFAI students past and present. Just a couple blocks from Union Square this medium sized space had a mixed sampling of work and a feeling in the air of something different to San Francisco. Something loose, fun, and smart. We'll definitely be sure to check out future openings and want to get to some of their Saturday events they have scheduled this month.

A little stop along the way
Through the influence of both eastern and western cultures, philosophies, and practices, Ted creates paintings that explore the transitory nature of landscape. Drawing from his background and experience in eastern culture he uses industrial materials such as steel, aluminum, acids, and automotive enamel to create landscapes that simultaneously feel strong and illusive. The austere nature of his materials are softened and rendered into contemplative spaces. Using sumi ink and rice paper each piece is begun employing a chance driven process based on a traditional style of Chinese landscape painting. The monk Wong Mo pioneered this method (the Pomo method) during the Tiang dynasty (618- 906 AD).
A graduate of the San Francisco Art Institute, Ted is 35, lives in Gainesville, and when not in his studio he can be found riding or fixing his bikes and small engine vehicles.
Love these old halls. This place on 2nd is the Pacific Coast Marine Firemen, Oilers, Watertenders and Wipers Association Established 1883 in San Francisco, California

The 2010 Dodd-Frank Act is the likely impetus for the steep increase
At one time whistleblowers were relatively rare and isolated, and the law did not grant them much protection. But that's not the case anymore. Fulbright & Jaworski's recent litigation trends survey of in-house counsel found that more than 25 percent of companies had faced whistleblower allegations in the past three years.
Whistleblowers employed by defense contractors, pharmaceutical manufacturers and other companies have increasingly taken allegations of violations of law to the government—with striking results. Companies on the receiving end of these allegations have paid billions of dollars in fines and penalties following whistleblowers' cooperation with law enforcement authorities and civil lawsuits. What's more, new laws have granted whistleblowers enhanced protections against retaliation and increased financial incentives to tell the government about suspected violations of law by their employers.
In this article, the first of three on the evolving law and culture of whistleblowing, we discuss emerging trends and the basic legal and practical drivers of these trends. In the two articles that follow we discuss how companies can minimize the risk of being accused of "retaliating" against a whistleblower, and how companies can most effectively to conduct an investigation when faced with a whistleblower complaint.
Turning to the emerging trends, the present state of whistleblowing derives in large part from numerous federal laws that allow private parties, usually employees or other related individuals, to collect a portion of the government's settlement with or judgment against a company in exchange for information about the company's violations of the law. Companies frequently encounter these issues under the whistleblower provisions of the securities and tax laws, as well as the False Claims Act. Other laws on the state and federal level also protect and reward whistleblowers. The adoption and expansion of whistleblower provisions have led to nearly across-the-board increases in the number of cases filed in various arenas.
Statistics from the government show that not only is the number of suits increasing, but the total amount of the settlements resulting from whistleblower allegations is rising. The Department of Justice reported that in 2012 it recovered $3.3 billion in settlements and judgments under the whistleblower provisions of just one federal statute—the False Claims Act. A total of 647 new suits were filed under this law alone in 2012. By way of comparison, only 207 new securities class actions were filed in the same time period.
The most talked about impetus for new whistleblower claims is the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act, which has led to the establishment of a whistleblower office within the enforcement division of the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC). Under this Act, a whistleblower who provides original information to the government can receive a reward of 10 to 30 percent of the penalty resulting from a settlement or judgment in excess of $1 million. In the first year of the program, the office received over 3,000 tips, complaints and referrals—about eight tips per day—and paid out one award of $50,000.
The Internal Revenue Service's whistleblower program received significantly fewer complaints - 332 whistleblower submissions in fiscal year 2012 - but paid out a record $125.4 million in awards. Though Bradley Birkenfeld, the whistleblower associated with the UBS foreign bank account investigation, received the bulk of the payouts ($104 million), the remaining $21.4 million nevertheless exceeded the $8 million paid to whistleblowers in the previous year. The IRS program also amended its provisions to raise the whistleblower award to 15% to 30% of the tax revenue recovered.
Whistleblowers have also collected substantial sums as a result of the government's recoveries in False Claims Act cases. In March 2012, for example, whistleblowers received nearly 20 percent, or $4.6 million, of a $25 million settlement paid by Odyssey HealthCare.
Many observers, especially business advocates, worry that these programs discourage employees from raising important issues with internal compliance officials in order to secure large payouts. Former Representative Michael Oxley, who drafted the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, recently spoke out against the Dodd-Frank law's expansion of whistleblower incentives, saying that such incentives encourage employees to seek a "lottery" payout. Sarbanes-Oxley viewed whistleblower protections as a means of encouraging internal reporting and promoting robust internal corporate compliance efforts. Dodd-Frank, in contrast, seeks to incentivize whistleblowers to bypass internal compliance efforts.
In the health care industry, whistleblowers are now routinely bringing lawsuits, qui tam cases, rather than air their concerns with internal compliance officials. Whistleblowing has come so far in this field that often the whistleblowers are not lower level employees but rather managers or individuals with oversight responsibilities, including compliance officers. In January 2012, for example, the DenverHealthMedicalCenter paid $6.3 million to settle a whistleblower case brought by its former internal auditor.
The increase in the number of suits and size of awards associated with whistleblower cases, combined with the government's stated efforts to devote more resources and time to investigating whistleblower complaints, makes this a pressing issue for many industries. Even a whistleblower claim not accompanied by a regulatory or criminal investigation will frequently result in a costly internal investigation which must be handled appropriately. In our next articles we will discuss how reduce a company's risks when they encounter whistleblowers who remain employees – both the risk of being accused of retaliating against them, and the risks associated with investigating the claims made by whistleblowers.

At a stable in Santa Rosa Beach, Hurlburt Field Staff Sgt. Jenna Smeenk will be crowned Florida�s rodeo queen, a title she�s been working toward almost all her life on the rodeo pageant circuit.
On Saturday, 24-year-old Jenna Smeenk will trade in her military fatigues for a cowboy hat and crown.
At a stable in Santa Rosa Beach, the Hurlburt Field airman will be crowned Florida�s rodeo queen, a title she�s been working toward almost all her life on the rodeo pageant circuit.
The dream of becoming a rodeo queen is one the small-town South Dakota native has never let go, even after joining the Air National Guard, accepting a job at Hurlburt and traveling to Iraq and Afghanistan in intelligence operations with the Air Force.
See photos of Miss Rodeo Florida.
The glitz and glamour of the pageant world and the grit and guts required for military service may seem incongruent, but they have worked well for Smeenk.
�I don�t know any other rodeo queens who are in the military,� she said earlier this week. �I�m the first from Florida to win the title, but it�s great I can make them both tie in to each other.�
Smeenk grew up on a 10,000-acre cattle ranch in tiny Belle Fourche, S.D., near Rapid City. Her family always had horses.
�Growing up, my sister and I spent more time on our horses� backs than we did inside,� she said.
She and her sister Trisha, two years her senior, rode their horses bareback and without bridles through the wooded terrain until dark. They played cowboys and Indians, and put war paint on their horses.
�We would get into all kinds of stuff,� she said. �My mother would always say, �I can�t believe you two are out doing that.� �
When Smeenk was about 5 years old, she attended a stock show in the Black Hills. Across the arena, she spotted a beautiful woman wearing a crown � her first rodeo queen.
She ran over to her.
The woman stooped down to pose for a picture with the young Smeenk and gave her an autograph. It was love at first sight.
�I thought, �Man, I want to do that. I want to be that girl,� � Smeenk said
The rest, as she says, is history.
Shortly after, she and her sister started competing on the pageant circuit and performing well in both horsemanship and the beauty and public persona categories. Her sister was crowned Miss Rodeo USA in 2012, a title Smeenk intends to pursue the next few years.
One thing Smeenk had not imagined at that young age was that she would join the military. She made the decision in 2007 shortly before she graduated from high school.
�I needed to either go to college or find something else to do with my life,� she said.
Her parents weren�t in the military, but her sister had joined the South Dakota Air National Guard on the recommendation of a cousin in the Army.
She encouraged Smeenk to join. Not only would it be a good experience, but the military would help pay for her college education, something her family could not afford.
A few months after high school graduation, Smeenk signed a six-year contract.
Basic training was an eye-opener, unlike anything she had imagined, she said.
�I think everybody in basic goes through this feeling of �what did I get myself into?�, but you have already made a commitment to it,� she said.
She made the best of it, and when she got out she felt an enormous sense of accomplishment and closeness with the other members of her flight.
She�s had a great experience in the military since then.
�I really couldn�t imagine my life any other way,� Smeenk said.
Now a staff sergeant, she joined up with the 745th Special Operations Squadron at Hurlburt to provide intelligence information and mission support to pilots. She has volunteered for two deployments.
On Saturday, Smeenk�s sister, the rest of her family and her entire squadron will see her crowned Miss Rodeo Florida at noon at Gulfside Stables in Santa Rosa Beach.
The event begins at noon and is open to the public.
Smeenk said she chose the stables for her coronation because the staff there helped her greatly while she was training for the pageant. She also wanted to show her friends and fellow airmen who aren�t familiar with the rodeo world what it�s all about.
Horses will be available for trail rides after the ceremony.
After she gets her crown, Smeenk�s duties as queen will begin.
�I�ll basically hit the ground running,� she said.
She�s booked at rodeos and events every weekend until the end of March. Most are in Florida, but she will travel out of state when money and time allow.
She said it�s going to be a challenge to balance that with her work in the Air Force, but she�ll be able to make it happen.
�The squadron I work at is very supportive because they understand what a huge deal this is to me, and I really appreciate them for that,� she said.
On weekends and any leave time she gets, Smeenk will don her crown at rodeos and stock shows, where she�s apt to stoop down for a photo and sign an autograph for a little girl who will want to grow up to be just like her one day.

112th CONGRESS
2d Session
September 14, 2012
Mr. Bishop of New York (for himself, Mr. Runyan, Mr. King of New York, and Mr. Israel) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Financial Services
To amend the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 to set-aside community development block grant amounts in each fiscal year for grants to local chapters of veterans service organizations for rehabilitation of their facilities.
Short title
This Act may be cited as the
Renovate and Enhance Veterans' Meeting
Halls and Posts Act of 2012 or the
REVAMP Act of 2012.
Competitive grants to veterans service organizations for facility rehabilitation
Section 107 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 5307) is amended by adding at the end the following new subsection:
Competitive grants to veterans service organizations for facility rehabilitation
Using the amounts made available under section 106(a)(4) in each fiscal year for grants under this subsection, the Secretary shall make grants, on a competitive basis, to eligible veterans service organizations for use for repairs and rehabilitation of existing facilities of such organizations.
Eligible veterans service organizations
For purposes of this subsection, the term eligible veterans service organization means—
an entity that is exempt from taxation pursuant to section 501(c)(19) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (26 U.S.C. 501(c)(19)) and is organized on a local or area basis; and
a local or area chapter, post, or other unit of a national, regional, Statewide, or other larger entity of which local or area chapters, posts, or units are members, that is exempt from taxation pursuant to section 501(c)(19) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (26 U.S.C. 501(c)(19)).
No eligible veterans service organization may receive grant amounts under this subsection, from the amounts made available for any single fiscal year, in an amount exceeding the lesser of—
the cost of the proposed repair or rehabilitation; or
Any eligible veterans service organization that receives grant amounts under this subsection from amounts made available for a fiscal year shall be ineligible for any grant from any amounts made available for such grants for any of the succeeding 5 fiscal years.
Applications for assistance under this subsection may be submitted only by eligible veterans service organizations, and shall be in such form and in accordance with such procedures as the Secretary shall establish. Such applications shall include a plan for the proposed repair or rehabilitation activities to be conducted using grant amounts under this subsection.
Selection; criteria
The Secretary shall select applications to receive grants under this subsection pursuant to a competition and based on criteria for such selection, which shall include—
the extent of need for such assistance;
the quality of the plan proposed for repair or rehabilitation of the facility involved;
the capacity or potential capacity of the applicant to successfully carry out the plan; and
such other factors as the Secretary determines to be appropriate.
Prohibition of construction or acquisition
No amounts from a grant under this subsection may be used for the construction or acquisition of a new facility.
Subsection (a) of section 106 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 5306(a)) is amended—
in paragraph (4),
by striking
and (3) and inserting
(3), and (4);
by redesignating paragraph (4) as paragraph (5); and
by inserting after paragraph (3) the following new paragraph:
For each fiscal year, after reserving amounts under paragraphs (1) and (2) and allocating amounts under paragraph (3), the Secretary shall allocate $50,000,000 (subject to sufficient amounts remaining after such reservations and allocation) for grants under section 107(g).
The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development shall issue any regulations necessary to carry out sections 106(a)(4) and 107(g) of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as added by the amendments made by this section, not later than the expiration of the 90-day period beginning on the date of the enactment of this Act.

Despite growing opposition, both at home and abroad, the Bush Administration appears to have begun its concerted final push to convince Congress, the American people and the world of the need to invade Iraq. Such an invasion would constitute an important precedent, being the first test of the new doctrine articulated by President Bush of "pre-emption," which declares that the United States has the right to invade sovereign countries and overthrow their governments if they are seen as hostile to American interests. At stake is not just the prospect of a devastating war but the very legitimacy of an international system built over the past century that–despite its failings–has created at least some semblance of global order and stability.
It is therefore critical to examine and rebut the Administration's arguments, because if as fundamental a policy decision as whether to go to war cannot be influenced by the active input of an informed citizenry, what also may be at stake is nothing less than American democracy, at least in any meaningful sense of the word.
Below are the eight principal arguments put forward by proponents of a US invasion of Iraq, each followed by a rebuttal.
1. Iraq is providing support for Al Qaeda and is a center for anti-American terrorism.
The Bush Administration has failed to produce credible evidence that the Iraqi regime has any links whatsoever with Al Qaeda. None of the September 11 hijackers were Iraqi, no major figure in Al Qaeda is Iraqi, nor has any part of Al Qaeda's money trail been traced to Iraq. Investigations by the FBI, the CIA and Czech intelligence have found no substance to rumors of a meeting in spring 2001 between one of the September 11 hijackers and an Iraqi intelligence operative in Prague. It is highly unlikely that the decidedly secular Baathist regime–which has savagely suppressed Islamists within Iraq–would be able to maintain close links with Osama bin Laden and his followers. Saudi Prince Turki bin Faisal, his country's former intelligence chief, has noted that bin Laden views Saddam Hussein "as an apostate, an infidel, or someone who is not worthy of being a fellow Muslim." In fact, bin Laden offered in 1990 to raise an army of thousands of mujahedeen fighters to liberate Kuwait from Iraqi occupation.
There have been credible reports of extremist Islamist groups operating in northern Iraq, but these are exclusively within Kurdish areas, which have been outside Baghdad's control since the end of the Gulf War. Iraq's past terrorist links are limited to such secular groups as the one led by Abu Nidal, a now largely defunct Palestinian faction opposed to Yasir Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organization. Ironically, at the height of Iraq's support of Abu Nidal in the early 1980s, Washington dropped Iraq from its list of terrorism-sponsoring countries so the United States could bolster Iraq's war effort against Iran. Baghdad was reinstated to the list only after the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990, even though US officials were unable to cite increased Iraqi ties to terrorism.
The State Department's own annual study, Patterns of Global Terrorism, could not list any serious act of international terrorism connected to the government of Iraq. A recent CIA report indicates that the Iraqis have been consciously avoiding any actions against the United States or its facilities abroad, presumably to deny Washington any excuse to engage in further military strikes against their country. The last clear example that American officials can cite of Iraqi-backed terrorism was an alleged plot by Iraqi agents to assassinate former President George Bush when he visited Kuwait in 1993. (In response, President Bill Clinton ordered the bombing of Baghdad, hitting an Iraqi intelligence headquarters as well as a nearby civilian neighborhood.)

The Golden Apple Foundation of Rockford has named three finalists for a new award its giving out this year.
The foundation, which started giving out Golden Apple awards for teaching in 1997 and building leadership in 2006, has created a new program for assistant principals called Investing in Excellence.
Unlike the teachers and principals, who get a surprise presentation at their schools that usually involves a Golden Apple entourage, loved ones waiting in the wings and the occasional shrieking kid, the winner of the Investing in Excellence award will be announced at this year's banquet.
Thirteen assistant principals from across the region were nominated. The finalists are:
• Carl Hobbs of Belvidere High School. Hobbs has three years of experience in school leadership and also serves as Belvidere High School's athletic director. He is a public speaker for leadership development and started an initiative called Lead Early, Lead Now. He received a Golden Apple teaching award in 2011.
• Billy Lewis of Hononegah High School. Lewis has three years of experience in school leadership. He developed Hononegah's Character Education Committee which promotes research-based character skills shown to improve academics and life outcomes. He also is involved in a multi-year leadership initiative.
• Allison Louis of Machesney and Marquette Elementary schools has 2.5 years of experience in a school leadership position. Allison facilitates and coordinates a number of school and district committees many involving discipline, Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports, and long-range planning. She aspires to become a principal of a Therapeutic Day or Residential School.
The winner will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to the New and Aspiring School Leaders Program of the Harvard Graduate School of Education, sponsored by First Rockford Group.
The winner will be announced at the 18th Annual Excellence in Education Banquet May 2 at the Radisson Hotel & Conference Center.

PRINCETON — The Festival 56 production of "Almost, Maine" will open Friday at 7:30 p.m. at the Grace Center for Performing Arts, 316 S. Main St. in Princeton. It runs through Dec. 1.
The play is a romantic comedy set in the small town of Almost, Maine. With a four-person cast, it tells the story of how, on a cold and moonless winter night, the residents of the town of Almost find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and often hilarious ways.
The play was written by John Cariani. The cast features Georgia Mallory Guy and Mitch Conti, fresh off their performances in the festival's "Diaries of Adam and Eve," along with returning Festival 56 actors Eliza Morris and Andrew Pollock. Morris, a recent graduate of the ISU theater program, was last seen at Festival 56 in "City of Angels" (2008). New York-based Pollock, a Festival 56 favorite the last two seasons, played Herr Shultz in the festival's production of "Cabaret" this summer.
On opening night, a brief discussion with the play's cast and crew will immediately follow the performance, capped off by a "Black Friday Cabaret," the only late night cabaret of the fall season.
The last play of the Festival 56 fall season will be the holiday show, "A Tuna Christmas" (Dec. 7-Dec. 22). In addition, on Dec. 8, Festival 56 will present "It's a Wonderful Life" as a radio play broadcast live over WZOE, with local community members as the cast. Doors open at 1 p.m. for pre-show musical entertainment, followed by the live broadcast at 2 p.m. Tickets to this event are sold separately from the festival's fall plays.
Tickets for the festival's plays and special events can be purchased at the Festival 56 Box Office in the Grace Performing Arts Center. Box office hours are 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday. They may also be purchased by calling 815-879-5656 or 866-806-5656, or online at www.festival56.com. Seniors receive a discount and students under 18 may attend any show for half-price. Group discounts are also available.
The Grace is completely accessible and ample nearby parking is available.
For further information about the December shows and the upcoming 2013 season, visit www.festival56.com.

Morning fire displaces 24 in West Lebanon apartment buildingBy MEGHAN PIERCE
Union Leader Correspondent
February 11. 2013 4:53PM
WEST LEBANON - Twenty-four residents of an apartment building were displaced by a fire Monday morning.
No one was injured.
Firefighters were called to the two-story building at 81 Seminary Hill Road about 9 a.m. for a report of smoke coming from the 12-unit building.
Lebanon police found light smoke throughout the first and second floors and the basement. Police evacuated all residents while firefighters discovered a small fire under the front stairwell in a basement apartment.
"The fire was quickly extinguished, but due to the location and wood charring above the area of fire, the area required extensive overhaul to ensure there was no fire extension," a fire department official said.
There was minor smoke and water damage.
"Due to the extensive damage to the front stairwell, all 24 tenants have been displaced until repairs can be made," the fire department official said.
The Vermont/New Hampshire Chapter of the Red Cross assisted with residents' temporary lodging and other needs.
The road was closed for about an hour. Firefighters cleared the scene at 10:24 a.m.
Hanover and Hartford, Vermont fire departments assisted. Enfield provided station coverage.
The fire is under investigation but is not considered suspicious.

Justin Bieber Announces He's Making a Christmas Album
Do you hear what we hear? It's the sound of millions of Justin Bieber fans shrieking with glee at the news that the junior pop phenom will be releasing a Christmas album this year.
Bieber broke the news via Twitter and an interview with TMZ this week, revealing that he's been in the studio cutting some holiday tunes — and for a good cause, too.
Speaking with TMZ, Bieber said, "We're doing a Christmas [album] and it's probably gonna be done by the end of this month and then we're gonna start the next album, and then I gotta go on a South American tour." He then followed the news by telling his Twitter followers, "So it's true…been in the studio doing something special for Christmas. we are going to try and raise a lot of money this year for charity!"
No word yet on a title, track listing, or release date for the holiday release, but it's safe to assume that record store retailers all over the world went to sleep last night with visions of ringing cash registers dancing in their heads.

Google doesn't add big features to its search engine very often. Apart from delivering good results, another major appeal of Google - and one of the reasons its search engine is still king of the hill - is the iconic home page and the straightforward presentation of your query's results. As such, a major change like this is a pretty big deal.
Some websites are erroneously reporting that Google Instant delivers search results as-you-type, but if you read Google's announcement carefully, this is not the proper name for the new feature - it works differently. Google calls it search-before-you-type. Their reasoning is that when you want to search for "bike helmets", you're not really interested in the results for "bike h".
"Google Instant is search-before-you-type," explains Marissa Mayer, VP Search Products & User Experience, "Instant takes what you have typed already, predicts the most likely completion and streams results in real-time for those predictions - yielding a smarter and faster search that is interactive, predictive and powerful."
"The user benefits of Google Instant are many - but the primary one is time saved," Mayer adds, "Our testing has shown that Google Instant saves the average searcher two to five seconds per search. That may not seem like a lot at first, but it adds up. With Google Instant, we estimate that we'll save our users 11 hours with each passing second!"
The feature is currently available on Google.com (for now only if you're signed in with a Google account), and will become available on local Google sites in the weeks and months to come. You'll need either Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or IE 8, and despite not being mentioned, I'm assuming it'll work just fine in Opera as well (any testers wish to confirm this?).
I'm sold. It just feels very natural, and you no longer need to press enter to get to the results - you go to the results page as soon as you start typing. It's great to see Google not resting on its laurels, and continue to innovate even though they don't really need to.
There are people around who wonder why so many people like Google, why the search giant generates positive feelings instead of negative ones, despite the fact that they're a company like everyone else. Well, people, it's because they do stuff like this. They don't have to innovate with the kind of market share they have - yet they do it anyway.

PLAINVIEW – Maybe your child was the leader of the pack at the church youth group. Maybe she was the quiet, loyal one who showed up every Sunday and every fellowship. Or maybe he wasn't very interested at all in church things.
Regardless of how involved a teen was as a youth in church, things are certain to change somewhat when they reach college, whether they're living in the same town or miles away. And according to Dr. Gary Manning, professor of religion at Wayland Baptist University, the trend is not something about which parents need to be panicked.
"Anytime children leave our presence, there is fear… terror for some," said Manning, who specializes in youth ministry issues. "Parents sometimes think they can buffer their children and nothing will happen to them. But that's just not true."
Instead, he said, parents need to realize that they have enormous influence on their children before they leave home and use that influence to educate them about dangerous behaviors and the consequences. He said modeling commitment to church involvement and spiritual growth is the key to keeping them on that road when they leave home for college.
"Children need to own their faith and their response to God," he said. "Part of the growing up process is making their faith their own, and it may be very different from what they grew up with."
"A good approach to letting children go is to have open, honest discussions about what is out there and ensure them that no matter what they do, they are always loved and welcomed home," he added. "But you need to say outright that you don't want them to do those things and give them encouragement for getting out of a bad situation. And if they do get in trouble, it's not valuable for parents to try and spare them from the consequences of their actions. They'll never learn if they don't let them experience those and your love and God's love."
Manning said recent research from the National Study of Youth and Religion found that after that time of searching and asking and introspection, students' religious commitment generally will mimic their parents' commitment. That's good news for some parents and bad news for others, Manning said.
Still, when students leave for college and don't immediately join a local church – or worse, they quit going altogether – parents can understandably be a bit worried. Manning advises being honest in conversations, realizing your major influence on them has waned significantly, and avoid preaching or bugging them about the situation. He offers these tips:

The #1 Paleo Diet Online Resouce

Fats are confusing. Bad fats, good fats , omega-3s, saturated, unsaturated, trans…it can be difficult to keep them all straight. Not to mention that fat was targeted as THE macronutrient to avoid in the 1980s-1990s thanks to low-fat campaigns by organizations such as the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. A couple decades later, we've realized that fat wasn't necessarily the issue with the standard American diet. Fats play a vital role in how our body functions, so it's important to know which ones are best for you.
Our series on fats continue. This time we're talking about PUFAs – polyunsaturated fatty acids!
In a general sense, fats are either considered
Prada Patent PeepToe Flats buy cheap websites 1QMxXg6RbA
or unsaturated. A saturated fat means that all of the carbon atoms in the fatty acid chain are joined with a single bond, and the remaining bonds are attached to a hydrogen atom. This chemical structure allows for the fat to be solid at room temperature. Think animal fats, butter, and coconut.
Unsaturated, on the other hand, means that adjoining carbons on the fatty acid are connected by one or more double bonds. A mono unsaturated fat signals that there is one double bond in the structure. A poly unsaturated fat means that there are multiple double bonds. Unsaturated fats are normally liquid at room temperature.
It's worth mentioning here that there is such thing as a trans fat. This type of fat is mainly a result of industrial fat production. Trans fats are found in products such as margarine or other highly refined "foods." This type of fat is linked to instances of cardiovascular issues like obesity and heart disease and should be avoided at all costs.
Polyunsaturated fatty acids are categorized into two subgroups: omega-3 and omega-6. Their categorization is determined by where their double bonds fall on the chain in relation to the end molecule.
Both omega-3s and omega-6s are considered essential fatty acids. This means that our body cannot produce these on our own and we have to consume them in our diet.
If you want to compare two revisions that didn't happen sequentially, you can check the box for Compare any two revisions and then use the additional slider option to select the exact revisions to compare:Compare any two revisions
When you restore a post revision, you overwrite the current WordPress editor to restore the content from the revision.
To do this, all you need to do is select the revision that you want to restore with the slider and then click the Restore This Revision button:Restore This Revision
If you select an autosave, you'll see Restore This Autosave instead:Restore This Autosave
Once you click the button, you'll be taken back to the WordPress editor and you'll see the restored version. You'll need to save a draft or update the post to make the revision permanent, though.
Of course, if you want to restore the version that you overwrote, you can always jump back into the Revisions area and restore the previous version from before you restored the current version. It's revision-ception!
Some webmasters want to modify the WordPress post revisions system for performance reasons. By default, WordPress stores a separate revision every single time you make a change to a piece of content.
If you're constantly editing and adjusting content, this can quickly add up.
See, each time that WordPress saves a revision, it stores a complete copy of that revision in your site's database. This is, in part, why you're able to speed up your WordPress site by periodically optimizing your WordPress database to remove post revisions and other gunk.
For this reason, some WordPress hosts , like WP Engine , will automatically disable revisions on all the sites hosted there.
But if you want or need to do things yourself, there are two main ways to modify the WordPress post revisions functionality:Change how many revisions WordPress stores. Completely disable revisions.
To perform both these actions in the most user-friendly way possible, the free WP-Disable plugin is a great option:
Manolo Blahnik Perforated Suede Flats cheap sale fake free shipping recommend manchester great sale cheap online nicekicks su173t
Current Version: 1.5.20
Last Updated: May 16, 2018
It lets you manually adjust or disable the number of stored revisions. To use it:Optimisation.io Post revisions number
We don't recommend this option for beginners ( stick to the plugin above ). But if you're comfortable editing your site's wp-config.php file, you can also modify WordPress post revisions using WP_POST_REVISIONS .

Rapid City embracing model principal evaluation system
This story is the third in a three-part series on the continuing development of South Dakota's model principal effectiveness system.
Beginning in the 2014-15 school year, South Dakota public school districts will be required to have a principal effectiveness system in place. Under the model system, principals receive both a professional practice rating and a student growth rating. The two separate ratings are combined into one summative rating.
The Rapid City Area School District is one of 12 districts participating in this year's pilot of the model system.
Opportunity for meaningful evaluation
Rapid City Assistant Superintendent Katie Bray sees it as a tremendous opportunity, asking, "Does this become an exercise in checking the boxes? Or, do we turn this into something that really gives a principal an opportunity to reflect on his/her practice?"
Bray, who supervises 23 principals, is striving for the latter.
She believes the state of South Dakota has provided good tools: rubrics, training and technology. Now she is putting those tools to work for the needs of her district.
The pilot program only required five Rapid City Area principals to participate, but the remaining 18 were also willing to participate when they realized how closely the model system aligns to the system the district had already been developing.
Spurring conversation
At the beginning of the year, Bray and the principals mapped out what their focus would be each quarter. Every quarter, Bray completes a 90-minute evaluation with each principal and the focus area shapes their conversations.
When she learned her district would be participating in the pilot, Shannon Schaefers says, "Knowing that it was a growth model, I was excited about that."
Schaefers is the principal of Grandview Elementary in Rapid City, and says discussion with Bray often makes her realize many of her daily activities already align with the framework's expectations.
Bray says that realization is one of the great strengths of the model system: "Then, things they [principals] do become more purposeful because they connect them to an expectation. They begin to be able to define their practice better."
Dissecting the model
Under the model system, the professional practice rating is based on the South Dakota Framework for Effective Principals, developed by several work groups, including the South Dakota Commission on Teaching and Learning. The framework includes six domains and 22 performance components. These domains include both those pieces of a principal's job that surround instructional leadership and school improvement, as well as those duties related to the daily management and operation of a school.
The domains of the framework include:
1. Vision and Goals
2. Instructional Leadership
3. School Operations and Resources
4. School, Student and Staff Safety
5. School and Community Relationship
6. Ethical and Cultural Leadership
A principal's student growth rating is primarily determined by the percentage of teachers under his or her supervision who earn a student growth rating of Expected. This measure accounts for 75 percent of a principal's student growth rating.
The secondary measure of a principal's impact on student growth requires a principal, in cooperation with the district superintendent, to set school-level growth goals based on available state accountability data (SPI or AMOs). In years when such data is available, this measure accounts for 25 percent of a principal's student growth rating.

Reading Development
Risk Factors for Reading Problems
Get the facts on risk factors for reading problems to help put all kids on the path to reading success, right from the start.
Nemours BrightStart! helps parents, educators and health professionals understand key concepts and actions needed to promote reading success for all children through a variety of specific tools, services and resources.
Through our research and evaluations, Nemours BrightStart! contributed to the knowledge, scientific evidence and scholarly resources concerning reading failure in children.
Kennedy's Story
It's hard to believe that only months ago Kennedy was struggling with the ABCs. Her mother, a teacher herself, constantly read stories to Kennedy, but that wasn't enough to help her catch on to important skills she would need to become a successful reader.
Kennedy is not alone. Many children entering kindergarten are already significantly behind in the skills they need for reading success. The achievement gap that plagues our schools exists long before kindergarten.
At Nemours BrightStart!, we see this as an opportunity we cannot resist. Through a Nemours BrightStart! screening, Kennedy was identified as needing intensive assistance to improve her early literacy skills. Along with several
other children at her preschool, Kennedy began working with a Nemours BrightStart! teacher.
To Kennedy's mom, the results were amazing. She states, "By the end of her nine-week lessons, Kennedy not only knew her ABCs, but she had begun to read at a 'better than average' level for her age group."
As such a poised reader, Kennedy was selected as the "official reader" for her preschool graduation — an honor bestowed upon only one pre-school graduate each year. She proudly read the story, Tip, as her parents beamed from
the audience.
For both Kennedy and her mom, Nemours BrightStart! has been priceless. Now confident in her beginning reading abilities, Kennedy is not only excited, but also ready to begin kindergarten in the fall.
What Parents Are Saying
Working together, we can fulfill our promise to help every child discover the joy of reading. Here is a sampling of what parents are saying about Nemours BrightStart!:
"My 4-year-old daughter and I read together almost daily. I make funny faces and create voices to enhance the story's character. I also allow my daughter to try to read the pictures and certain recognizable words back to me. I've even had her read grocery store ads to me and was amazed when she articulated certain products and their cost. Her vocabulary has increased tremendously. I often catch her trying to read alone. I love it!"
— Samerica Doles, after using
Nemours BrightStart! tools and resources
"The Nemours BrightStart! program is nothing short of a miracle.
The progress my daughter has achieved in the last three to four months is incredible. It's like she woke up to the fun world of letters, numbers, and reading."
— Parent of Nemours BrightStart!
participating student, Duval County, Fla.
"Ms. Denise:
Thanks a lot for all your help.
My son Andre has improved tremendously.
I appreciate your support. God bless you!"
— A note from a parent given to a
Nemours BrightStart!-trained teacher
What Educators Are Saying
Working together, we can free children from the disabling effects of reading failure. Here is a sampling of what educators are saying about Nemours BrightStart!:
"Early in the year one of my students was so shy and withdrawn in the classroom that he would stiffen his body when approached or spoken to by a classmate or teacher. He refused to participate or interact with anyone. One day after returning to the classroom following a Nemours BrightStart! lesson, the student gave me a big unexpected hug, pointed to his letter bracelet, and said, 'I know what this letter is! It's a C and it says /c/!' It was a turning point for this child, and he has been an active learner since that day."
— Ms. Bass, a VPK teacher
"Nemours BrightStart! is such a positive experience that when I walk into a classroom, my Nemours BrightStart! students are excited to come to the group. The children who are not receiving Nemours BrightStart! instruction continually ask me, 'When is it my turn? Are you taking me today?' I plan to take a day to invite these children to a small group to sample a taste of Nemours BrightStart!"
— Nemours BrightStart!-trained educator
"After completing just one series of Nemours BrightStart! lessons, the children have shown impressive academic gains. But just as important are the positive changes in their level of confidence and attitude toward learning. Children who were hesitant to respond and participate in their classroom setting gained the confidence to answer questions and interact with their Nemours BrightStart! buddies. The Nemours BrightStart! small group is a safe, secure atmosphere to learn, and the strategies are designed for the children to experience success. It was heartwarming to hear the children say encouraging words to each other such as 'kiss your brain,' 'slam dunk,' and 'you did it.'"
— Nemours BrightStart!-trained educator
"One student in particular had difficulty attending to the activities during the earlier lessons. But once he started experiencing success, he became more attentive and cooperative. In fact, he became such a proficient syllable clapper in his group, that he would offer his help to other students by holding their hands to clap and saying,
'You're doing it!'"
— Bonnie Post, Prekindergarten Specialist,
School District of Osceola County, Fla.

What Researchers Are Saying
Nemours BrightStart! contributes to the knowledge, scientific evidence and scholarly resources concerning reading failure in children. Here is a sampling of what researchers are saying about Nemours BrightStart!:
"Nemours BrightStart! provides a tremendous service to the local community through successful screening and early intervention services targeting the promotion of early literacy skills. This work is extremely important given the close correspondence known to exist between the development of early literacy skills and later achievement.
"Unique, however, among early intervention services is the enormous contribution Nemours BrightStart! is making to the research literature through the program's rigorous evaluation of intervention effectiveness. Their initial evaluation of the program's effectiveness has yielded very promising results showing a difference in reading readiness skills of over 100 percentage points between participants and non-participants. Consider that the average improvement reported by programs evaluated by the WhatWorks Clearinghouse ranges from 1-36 percentage points.
"Through Nemours BrightStart!'s carefully conducted research, including experimental and longitudinal research designs, researchers are contributing at the national level to our understanding of best practices in early intervention. I am thrilled to be able to collaborate with this innovative team of experts. Our collaborative efforts focus on better understanding factors related to treatment response among program participants. We would like to better understand why some children who were identified through screening procedures make greater gains as a result of the Nemours BrightStart! intervention than others. Through this work we will be able to further enhance program efficacy and better serve all children and families."
— Marika Ginsburg-Block, PhD,
Program Coordinator and Associate Professor of Education,
School Psychology Program, University of Delaware

Tom Cotton is Rep.elect from Arkansas's Fourth District and a friend of Power Line. On Sunday he appeared on Fox News to reiterate the gist of his Wall Street Journal column on Chuck Hagel — that Hagel is the wrong man for Secretary of Defense.
Buzzfeed reports that "Chuck Hagel loses altitude." Zeke Miller observes: "Former Sen. Chuck Hagel's chances of being Barack Obama's Secretary of Defense are quickly dimming, as critics point to the White House's silence in the face of questions about the Nebraska Republican's record."
That's the good news. The bad news is that Hagel reflects Obama's deepest views and that Obama's second four-year term hasn't even begun.
