A York man who received $40 to babysit his niece and nephew while their father went out of town on Friday was arrested after a neighbor found him passed out drunk, recovering from what he called a "bad hangover," while one of the children was in the house alone and the other was in an RV behind a trailer, deputies say.
A woman, 19, who lives on Jordan Drive, off Dr. Nichols Road, called deputies at about 5 p.m. expressing concerns that her neighbor left his young children with his brother, Michael Gary Wade, 26, while he went to a dirt track in Gastonia, according to a York County Sheriff's report. She told deputies she did not know if that was a good idea because she found Wade passed out while he was supposed to be watching the kids three weeks ago.
The neighbor told police she tried calling the father, but was unable to reach him, the report states.
She and her fiancé walked to the house where they found the baby boy, 1, sitting in a playpen in the trailer by himself. They found the girl, 5, in an RV with Wade, who had passed out. The woman took the children to her house and called police.

Wade told deputies he drank whiskey all night and into the morning. He passed out as he recovered from a "bad hangover," the report states. While deputies were speaking with him, Wade vomited "a couple times" and explained that his brother gave him $40 to babysit the kids, the report states. He said his brother did not know he was drunk.
The father told authorities he had no idea his brother was still drunk. Once his neighbor called him, he made his way back home.
Deputies believed that the father did not intentionally put his children in harm's way and allowed him to reclaim them. Paramedics took Wade to Piedmont Medical Center at his request. He was released at 11:45 p.m. and then arrested, charged with two counts of unlawful neglect of a child.
By Monday morning, he remained jailed at the York County Detention Center on a $10,000 bond.

Once again, it's on.
The Bulls and Miami will square off in the playoffs for the second time in three years, renewing an intense rivalry these teams have shared since the 2010-11 season, when LeBron James and Chris Bosh joined Dwyane Wade on South Beach.
These teams have made it clear they don't like each other. The Bulls recently snapped the Heat's 27-game winning streak; afterward, "King" James complained about how physical the Bulls were.
This series won't be the same without Derrick Rose suiting up, much to the dismay of Bulls fans who want nothing more than to knock the defending NBA champions off their throne.
That won't diminish how badly each team wants to win, however. Let's take a look at why the Bulls-Heat rivalry is so intense:
LeBron vs. Joakim
The emotional leader of the Bulls has a beef with "King" James that goes back to his days in Cleveland. Remember when James had a penchant for dancing? Well, Noah thought it was corny and told him so. Then he went and dissed the whole city of Cleveland.
Dwyane Wade vs. Chicago
When it comes to basketball, Chicago usually will embrace a player from the suburbs—except for Dwyane Wade. Maybe it's because of that time he proclaimed he was "from Robbins, Illinois" in one of his shoe commercials, when actually he grew up at 59th Street and Prairie Avenue. Or maybe it was the way he beat the Bulls in a thrilling game in Miami on a one-legged 3-pointer at the buzzer in 2009. Whatever it is, D-Wade doesn't get a whole lot of love in the Windy City. Just ask his dad, who got kicked out of a game at the United Center for cussing out fans harassing him about his son.
Five and out
Back when Derrick Rose won the MVP and led the Bulls to the Eastern Conference finals, fans were positive a seventh NBA championship was around the corner. The Bulls blew out the Heat in Game 1, Taj Gibson put D-Wade on a poster and then Miami proceeded to win the next four games and make it to the NBA Finals. It was the only time in Chicago history that Bulls fans bought Dallas Mavericks gear to wear during the finals.
'The Decision'
In summer 2010, Bulls fans really wanted LeBron James to come to Chicago. The desperation reached such a level that somebody even put up a billboard downtown begging him to play here. But when LeBron chose to spend his winters on the sun-drenched beaches of Miami instead of the cold, snow and wind of Chicago, he officially became the No. 1 [bleep] in the NBA as far as this city is concerned.
Chicago Heat fans
We all know someone who's from Chicago but became a fan of the Miami Heat just because LeBron James is there now. We don't condone violence, but we understand that Bulls fans might want to beat the crap out of them sometimes.

The European Southern Observatory (ESO) has released a gorgeous new picture of the War and Peace Nebula, or what the cool kids call NGC 6357. It's located 8,000 lightyears away in the constellation of Scorpius. By using the ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT), astronomers have been able to look at the detail of the nebula's outer parts for the very first time.
A wider and higher-resolution version of the top image can be found here.
Astronomers gave it the name "War and Peace" because the western part of the nebula resembled a dove, while the other half looked like a skull.
The new image shows a river of dust streaming across the center that absorbs the light from more distant objects. At the right side of the picture is a small cluster of brilliant blue-white young stars that have formed from the congealing gas. These baby stars are only about a few million years old. The intense ultraviolet radiation from these new stars is hollowing out a cavity in the surrounding gas and dust, sculpting it in strange and beautiful ways.
And be sure to check out the bottom right corner which features a dusty column similar to the famous "pillar of creation" in the Eagle Nebula.

Justin Bieber's mom wants one thing made clear: She does not have a political opinion on the abortion issue. Pattie Mallette settles the controversial "Bieber's Mom Debate" by stating "I haven't shared my stance with anyone and I'm not here to make a political statement, so there's been a lot of assumptions made."
Critics have been hurling accusations at the superstar's mom over her recent involvement in Crescendo, a new film that she hopes will raise 10 million dollars for a shelter for pregnant teens. She herself stayed in such a place when she got pregnant with Justin as a teenager and was subsequently kicked out of her house.
Pattie has been very vocal in the past about her struggles as a pregnant teen, the pressure on her to have an abortion, and her attempted suicide. She says she connected with the plot of the movie, which is a biopic about Beethoven's mother, who attempted abortion and suicide.
She signed on as an executive producer after the film was finished, and while she admits there are some producers involved that hold anti-abortion beliefs, her only goal is to support residential programs like the one that helped her as a teen in trouble. She said:
"The pregnancy center that I lived in is now closed because of lack of funds, so I thought it was a really important thing that they're doing to raise money."
It's a sad day when people will make assumptions about your political beliefs and attack you for them when you're just trying to raise money for a good cause. She never said she was anti-abortion -- she's only shared her own story. She made the decision to keep her baby, but doesn't assume to know what's best for other mothers.
Maybe she is a pro-lifer. If that's the case, then I applaud her for showing girls that they have options, rather than just condemning them for considering having an abortion. She's been there. She knows how scary it is. She also knows that rainbows come after storms, and she's in a position to help girls make a real choice.
Pro-life or pro-choice -- it doesn't matter. All that matters is that Pattie Mallette is trying to make a difference for some girls that might not have anyone else to turn to. And that's a good thing.
Do you think Justin Bieber's mom has a secret pro-life agenda?

As a business owner, you know being prepared for anything is part of who you are. If one thing is certain today, it's that you can't be certain about what will happen tomorrow. You can, however, be certain that you've taken action to help protect yourself and your business from the unexpected.
Think about what would happen to your business if you, your business partner, or a key employee were to unexpectedly die or become too sick or injured to work. There's no doubt that this would have a tremendous impact on your business and its continued success. But there's good news: this is something you can plan for.
Having the foresight to protect your business against the loss of an owner or an essential employee–perhaps the company's most valuable asset–can mean the difference between business as usual or closing up shop. Just as you would insure your business property, you should also consider insuring the people who have the biggest impact on your company's success. We can help with business planning strategies that are designed to protect your business from the unexpected and help ensure the business you've worked so hard to build withstands the test of time.

A Draft Generic Environmental Impact Statement (DGEIS) has been completed and accepted for the proposed action described below. Comments are requested and will be accepted by the contact person until November 21, 2011. A public hearing on the Draft GEIS will be held on November 10, 2011, at 3:30 p.m., at the Town of Babylon Town Hall Board Room. Name of Action: Planning Board Job #11-05ACE, New Frontier II, LLC, App. #91896 Description of Action: The applicant proposes to rezone nine (9) parcels zoned Business E and Residence B to a Multiple Residence Use District and construct 500 units (213 one-bedroom and 287 two-bedroom units), 45,500 square feet of proposed retail space and associated site improvements. The application includes the subdivision of the nine (9) parcels into five (5) for the purpose of a five (5) phased development. The nine (9) parcels total 20.26 acres. The project site currently has 356 mobile home units. Location: E/s Broadway, 127.77' n/o Nathalie Avenue, Amityville, New York, SCTM Nos. 0100-163-01- 54, 55, 56, 57 and SCTM Nos. 0100-164-02-2, 5, 9, 10, 25. The Draft Generic Environmental Impact Statement for this project is posted on townofbabylon.com/forms. cfm. The DGEIS is also available at the Amityville Public Library, corner of Oak Street and John Street, Amityville, New York, 11701, and at the Frontier Park Mobile Home Office. Potential Environmental Impacts: The proposal involves a significant change in existing land use at the subject location. The redevelopment of the site will result in the construction of 500 residential housing units and 45,500 square feet of retail space. The project involves a number of phases which must be considered in the overall analysis in connection with potential significant adverse environmental impacts. These separate phases will have common and cumulative impacts. The proposal may result in secondary impacts to area roads. Drainage and sediment and erosion control impacts must be analyzed for the overall project and more specifically for each phase through the preparation of Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs). The proposal will change the existing community character of the site. Social impacts in connection with relocation must be examined. The proposal is a significant development, 500 residential units, 45,500 square feet of retail space and associated site improvements on the 20.26 acre site. Based on the magnitude of the project, the phasing of the development and potential secondary environmental impacts, the preparation of a Generic Environmental Impact Statement is appropriate for this project.

FRANKFURT/LONDON (Reuters) - Vodafone is facing pressure from Kabel Deutschland's largest shareholder to raise its 7.7 billion euro ($10.1 billion) offer for Germany's largest cable company, two sources familiar with the situation said.
Activist investor Paul E. Singer, founder of U.S. hedge fund Elliott Asset Management, more than doubled his stake to 10.9 percent on September 6, Kabel Deutschland said on Monday two days before shareholders have to decide whether to accept Vodafone's offer.
"Vodafone's offer is not ideal. The goal is to renegotiate terms," a person familiar with the hedge fund's thinking said.
A spokeswoman for Elliott, known for its battle for control of U.S. oil firm Hess Corporation earlier this year, declined to comment.
A person familiar with Vodafone said Elliott was building up its stake in an attempt to force a better deal.
Vodafone urged Kabel Deutschland shareholders to accept its 84.5 euro a share offer earlier on Monday and warned the bid would lapse if the holders of less than three quarters of the German company's shares agree to sell by Wednesday.
The British company, which last week agreed the sale of its share in U.S. operator Verizon Wireless for $130 billion, wants to buy Kabel Deutschland to offer more television and fixed-line services in Germany, its largest European mobile market.
If the deal were to collapse, Vodafone would have to rely on renting fixed lines from Deutsche Telekom, rather than owning its network. It also faces the risk of Kabel Deutschland becoming a competitor in mobile phones, analysts said.
"There will not be any additional acceptance period should the 75 percent acceptance condition not be met by Wednesday, 11 September," Vodafone said.
Another person familiar with the transaction said Elliott may not attempt to block the deal, but could try to extract a higher price once Vodafone owned at least 75 percent of Kabel Deutschland.
Under German law, once Vodafone crosses this threshold it would have to offer to buy out minority shareholders at the same price. At that point Elliott could sue Vodafone, a strategy it is pursuing at German crane maker Demag.
Investors in two other German companies - utility Mainova and HVB Real Estate Bank - used this tactic successfully to get more for their shares earlier this year.
Kabel Deutschland said on Monday that two other investors had raised their stakes in the firm. U.S. hedge fund Davidson Kempner Capital Management LLC increased its holding to 3.4 percent, while British bank Barclays upped its stake to just above 5 percent of voting rights from less than 3 percent.
Davidson Kempner is known for its strategy of betting on the success or failure of takeover offers, a tactic known as merger arbitrage, or "arb" trading.
Neither Davidson Kempner nor Barclays were immediately available to comment.
Shares in Kabel Deutschland, which operates Germany's biggest cable network, closed down 0.6 percent on Monday at 85.22 euros.
Vodafone agreed the 84.5 euro a share, plus a 2.5 euro dividend, offer for Kabel Deutschland in June, a near 40 percent premium to Kabel's share price before the British company's interest first emerged.
Another one of Kabel Deutschland's 30 largest shareholders said on Monday he expected the deal to go through.
"Shareholders are unlikely to get a better deal for their shares in the next three to four years. Vodafone and Kabel D. can unlock high synergies from the joint utilization of networks and a counter-bid is unlikely," he said.
Espirito Santo analyst Andrew Hogley said there was a risk that the Kabel Deutschland deal would fail, although on balance he expected it would succeed.
"Kabel Deutschland on a standalone basis on our numbers is worth about 84 (euros), so it's a fair price that Vodafone is offering but given the synergies they are claiming from the deal, it is not compelling," he said.
Vodafone said on Monday that Germany's Federal Cartel Office had confirmed it would not request a referral from Europe on the deal.
It also said the European Commission was expected to complete an initial review of the offer by September 20.
Vodafone said that by Friday evening it had secured the support of holders of 11.86 percent of Kabel Deutschland, including 4.27 percent of the cable operator's shares Vodafone and a person that acts jointly with the group already owned.
In acquisitions, shareholders generally wait until the deadline to tender their shares in case a last-minute rival bid emerges.
($1 = 0.7600 euros)

Induction heating takes power from the mains, converts it into frequencies suitable for specific applications, then uses the power to create controllable heat in any electrically conductive material.
Power is applied to the workpiece by an induction coil. An alternating current flowing through a coil generates a magnetic field. Placing a workpiece within the coil induces eddy currents (resistance) in the piece. Heat is produced where—and only where—these eddy currents flow.
Different converters come with different power outputs and frequencies. Output power, the shape of the induction coil and the characteristics of the work piece determine the heat pattern. The depth of heat penetration into the work piece depends on the frequency: the lower the frequency, the deeper the penetration.

Evanesco! Emma Watson and boyfriend Will Adamowicz's relationship has vanished — and for a while now.
The "Harry Potter" actress, 23, who met Adamowicz, also 23, in 2011 while they were studying at Britain's Oxford University, released a statement on the nulled romance through her rep.
"Emma and Will separated last summer and are no longer in touch," the rep said via the U.K.'s Mirror, which initially reported the split on Sunday.
Friends told the paper that Watson's hectic film schedule was the reason for the split, despite the couple nearly getting engaged.
The former Brown University colleagues went public with their relationship in April 2012 when they were photographed kissing at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
Watson complained to Glamour magazine in September 2012 about the paparazzi magnifying any and all relationships she was in.
"My friend got me tickets [to Coachella] for my birthday, and what am I going to say? 'No, I'm not going to go because I don't want to be photographed?' But it was a huge crowd, and I thought there was no way anyone could get pictures of me, but somehow they found me," she said. "It's difficult on my dating life, because anyone I get photographed with is automatically my boyfriend. So it just makes it look as if I've had, like, 6,000 boyfriends!"
"The Bling Ring" star is finishing her senior year at Brown after taking a break from school to focus on her acting career, Us Weekly reported. She's set to next appear in Darren Aronofsky's biblically inspired drama, "Noah," in which she plays Noah's adopted daughter Ila. Russell Crowe plays the titular prophet, and the film also stars Watson's "Perks of Being a Wallflower" costar Logan Lerman, Anthony Hopkins and Jennifer Connelly.
Mmillionaire's son Abramowicz was recently photographed in a seemingly sketchy situation while celebrating the New Year, the Mirror reported.
A photo of the 23-year-old was posted on Facebook but has since been removed; however, the Mirror obtained the photo, which shows him sitting at a table with several white packets, a bottle and glass of wine and a $100 bill laid out in front of him. Adamowicz appears to be folding something in his hands and the photo, originally posted by his friend Antoine Salagnon, bears the caption "HNY [Happy New Year] — with Will Adamowicz," according to the Mirror.
When contacted by the British paper, Adamowicz denied that the packets in the picture contained drugs and said: "The picture is not compromising. It is not what you think. They are not packages. They are not drugs. They are just bits of scrap paper. I don't take any drugs."
Either way, his lady love is long gone.

English Coconut Macaroons
I cannot quite believe that English macaroons are now deemed to be old-fashioned, and less sophisticated than their French namesakes. Who decided this?! Maybe it's because they're far easier to make than their French cousins? I certainly don't agree with that statement.
Firstly, they make a perfect tea time treat. The outer is perfectly crispy with a moist, chewy, refreshing coconut inner. The drizzled dark chocolate is an amazing finishing touch and is fantastic combo.
Taste wise, these kind of taste like a Bounty chocolate/candy bar, or Mounds in the US but with a cookie-like textured outer shell. Or maybe even like an Almond-Joy candy bar since the English coconut macaroons have ground almonds in them too.
What do you think? I gave them a chance and now I'm hooked! They're yumorrific!
English Coconut Macaroons Recipe
Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
Yield: 12-14 macaroons
- 2 egg whites
- ¼ tsp cream of tartar
- 140g caster/superfine sugar
- 200g shredded or desiccated coconut
- 50g dark/plain chocolate
- 25g ground almonds
- pinch of salt
- Preheat the oven to 170℃/340℉/Gas Mark 3 and line two baking trays with baking parchment.
- Whisk the egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks start to form. Add the sugar, about a tablespoon at a time, and whisk until the mixture is glossy. Using a metal spoon or a palette knife, gently fold in the coconut, ground almonds and salt.
- Using a small ice-cream scoop or two tablespoons, place neat, heaped dollops of the mixture on the prepared trays, spacing them at least 3-4 cm apart.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or until dry and golden on the outside. Set the macaroons aside on their baking trays and allow to firm up for at least 10 minutes.
- Use a palette knife or cookie spatula to transfer the macaroons to a wire rack to cool completely.
- When ready to decorate, melt the chocolate and allow to cool for about 5 minutes, meanwhile place a sheet of greaseproof baking parchment under the wire rack.
- Spoon the chocolate into a piping bag and snip off the corner (you need just a tiny hole). Drizzle the chocolate over the macaroons. Leave to set.

D'Angelo, seen here performing at the 2012 BET Awards, took to the stage at the Essence Music Festival.
(Rolling Stone) -- An impossibly high-pitched "aaahh" ascended from a churchy organ vamp, proclaiming D'Angelo's arrival on the biggest stage he has played since his legendary Voodoo tour. Clad in rugged boots, leather vest and trademark tanktop (all black), he appeared with a perfect confidence and poise that belied his recently broken 12-year hiatus from the stage.

- R & B singer D'Angelo returned to the stage at Essence Fest after a 12-year hiatus
- It was his first official U.S. gig, though he mad appearances at Bonnaroo and the BET Awards
- The singer is heading out on tour with Mary J. Blige
(Rolling Stone) -- An impossibly high-pitched "aaahh" ascended from a churchy organ vamp, proclaiming D'Angelo's arrival on the biggest stage he has played since his legendary Voodoo tour. Clad in rugged boots, leather vest and trademark tanktop (all black), he appeared with a perfect confidence and poise that belied his recently broken 12-year hiatus from the stage.
His performance at the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans has been anticipated as D'Angelo's American comeback, but the reclusive R&B polymath has been unfolding a cautious return. It began this January with a short European club tour, which confirmed that he hadn't lost an ounce of mojo. He also added a batch of new songs to his repertoire. The Essence show was the first U.S. gig on the books, but he warmed up to his big night by jamming covers with "co-pilot" ?uestlove at Bonnaroo, playing a new song on TV for the BET Awards, and running through a full set -- a dress rehearsal of sorts -- on the 4th of July at the House of Blues in Los Angeles.
So come Essence Fest, D'Angelo and his band of virtuoso studio pros (including Pino Palladino on bass and Chris "Daddy" Dave on the drums) were locked in tight. They articulated every breathy, rhythmic nuance from D'Angelo's distinctive palate. One song instantly became another when D'Angelo clutched his fist -- classic stage magic he picked up from his idols, or "yodas," as he calls them. The frequent falsetto yelps -- "good God!" -- suggested the night's yoda du jour was James Brown, although his side-by-side guitar solos with Jesse Johnson (from the Time) found D playing at Prince as well.
D'Angelo coolly picked along to "Playa Playa" on guitar and sang a breezy take on Roberta Flack's "Feel Like Makin' Love," embellished by the lush harmonies of his powerhouse backup vocalists. A new song known as "Ain't That Easy" followed, featuring a chunky bass riff that gave way to some of D's most accessible melodies. He's so comfortable playing the new material that it's easy to hear the songs as centerpieces of future shows.
He ditched the guitar for "Devil's Pie," which freed up his body to muscularly saunter about the stage and viciously headbang with dynamo vocalist Kendra Foster. A sturdy "Chicken Grease" led into the gentle "Really Love," an unreleased song that ?uestlove leaked on Australian radio back in 2007, which featured D's high-flying, taught falsetto accompanied by smooth guitar licks. The 70-minute festival set was brief for D's shows, so many of the grooves were abbreviated. Yet one song that got completely deconstructed and jammed back together was "S**t, Damn, Motherf***er." The pleading opening verse was the band's most intense, raw moment. As the song revved up, D and his singers stalked around the stage in a frenzy, resulting in some toppled drums.
Despite the spike in energy onstage, much of the crowd remained politely subdued. D'Angelo's set came between Trey Songz and Charlie Wilson, both of whom quickly had the mostly female, mostly adult Essence attendees on their feet. After Songz' saccharine crooning, D'Angelo sounded downright unruly, almost abrasive. R&B is a nebulous descriptor, but D'Angelo's funk and soul abstractions highlighted how his approach to the genre is distinct from the festival's other acts.
Still, he has one undeniable number, and it successfully ensnared the audience. Solo on piano, he abruptly banged out the opening chord to "Untitled (How Does It Feel)," and the energy in the Superdome immediately focused into a deafening flurry of screams. He stopped playing, stood up, shook his head, then flashed a cheeky grin. In perfect time, he gracefully returned to his infamous mega-hit, played beautifully and stripped bare. "Untitled" provided the crowd nostalgic pleasure that doubled as a gateway into the richness of D'Angelo's prodigious talents, if maybe a few songs too late. A well-timed "Lady" broke the slow jam spell, and he closed out with his superb new funk thumper, "Sugah Daddy." He rode his new groove until the show's close, screaming, wailing, and frantically conducting the band's final notes.
As the heir-apparent to practically every iconic soul singer, the pressure to finish his third studio album and get back on the road has been markedly high, but his solid performance on the big stage proves he has yet to flinch. The comeback will continue later this summer when D'Angelo tours with Mary J. Blige, Essence's Saturday headliner. Just before D's set, Blige commented on the upcoming tour to Rolling Stone, saying "I felt like it would be refreshing and fun for people to see him and Mary J. Blige on the road together." Their tour will make 20 stops in August.

Taking Steps to Reduce Surgery Risks
Hospitals are changing how they evaluate patients for surgery, delaying some people's procedures and speeding up others. For patients with chronic health risks, they are delaying elective procedures for weeks or even months, to fix problems and change lifestyles. Laura Landro has details on Lunch Break.

Lincoln Mayor Don Wesely today announced that Constructors Inc. of Lincoln has been awarded the bid for the East "O" Street Project. The company signed a $12 million contract with the city to widen "O" Street to six lanes from 52nd Street to Wedgewood Drive over the next two years.
"'O' Street is the main east-west street through Lincoln, and everyone who travels it understand that widening the street to relieve traffic congestion is overdue," said Mayor Wesely. "Because it is a major route through the city, we know the project will cause some inconvenience. I ask for everyone's patience over the next two years as we widen and improve this major arterial."
A 1997 traffic study by The Schemmer Associates showed that 36,900 vehicles a day were traveling on "O" Street, which was designed to handled up to 32,000 vehicles a day. Projections show that traffic on "O" Street will increase to more than 45,000 vehicles a day by 2020.
The total cost of the project is about $18.5 million, which includes right-of-way acquisition. The Federal Highway Administration will fund 80 percent of the project through the Nebraska Department of Roads. The 20 percent to be funded by the City of Lincoln includes a $1.2 million contribution from R.E.J. Group, the former owners of the Gateway Shopping Center.
Constructors Inc. will begin preliminary work, which will not affect traffic, later this week. That includes setting up temporary signals and signs that will be used to direct traffic when construction begins. Work to accommodate driveway construction for several businesses will result in some temporary lane closures beginning in late February or early March.
Construction will be in two phases:
In the one-way pair system, 56th Street from "P" to Randolph streets will be one way south. Cotner Boulevard from Randolph to "P" streets will be one way north. The portion of "P" Street between Cotner and 56th will be one way west. The portion of "N" Street from 56th to Cotner will be one way east.
"At first glance, turning right to go left might seem inconvenient, but anyone who has waited in the left-turn lanes on "O" Street knows the current system does not work well anymore," said Linda Beacham, Project Manager with The Schemmer Associates. "It will take some getting used to, but the new system will reduce the chances of collision and keep drivers moving instead of waiting in line."
The City of Lincoln, The Schemmer Associates and Constructors Inc. will hold a public meeting in early February 2002 to discuss the construction plans and answer questions.
"We're looking forward to getting started, and we're pleased to have the opportunity to communicate directly with the public about this major project," said Constructors' President Randy Howard.
The project team plans to keep the public informed on the progress of the project through an automated telephone line; a monthly newsletter to interested parties; updates on the web sites of the city () and The Schemmer Associates' ( updates on the government cable access channel, 5 CITY-TV; informational brochures; and continued meetings and open houses.
"This is one of the most complex roadway projects the city has ever undertaken," said Al Imig, Project Manager with the city Public Works and Utilities Department. "We are committed to doing everything we can to let the public know how the project is progressing and how they can safely travel through the project area."

**1/2 (out of four)
Seconds into the action-comedy-romance "This Means War," CIA boss Collins (Angela Bassett) instructs operatives/best friends Tuck (Tom Hardy) and FDR (Chris Pine), "Remember, this mission is covert." This seems like something that can go without saying. Or are there some incredibly public, free-for-all missions about which the agents are allowed to tweet? "Off to Berlin, fate of world at stake. #WeCanDoIt #USA.FTW."
Thankfully, that degree of terrible rears its head only, uh, every 10 minutes or so—particularly in the presence of Trish (Chelsea Handler), the infinitely obnoxious best friend of Lauren (Reese Witherspoon), who enters into enjoyable but inevitably complicated relationships with both Tuck and FDR. (She doesn't know they know each other.) A pause to address Handler: I love Cheetos. And I will never forgive you for subjecting me to how Trish and her husband use them.
Somehow this jumble turns into a frequently funny delight, the result of some crack casting that pits a lonely, divorced dad (Hardy) against a cocky schmoozer (Pine). Hardy's incredibly appealing; Pine can do arrogant and leave room for softness, and Witherspoon never lets the gullible Lauren come off as too much of a fool. Barely.
Liking "This Means War" means suspending disbelief that the CIA would use its powers to observe ordinary citizens (no way, right?) and that a woman would have no qualms about learning her man, who told her he was a travel agent or a cruise ship captain, actually risks his life constantly as a highly trained special agent. The movie bites from "True Lies" and many others (really, enough with the generic Russian villains, please), and director McG ("Charlie's Angels") always will favor the stylized explosion over the quiet moment.
Yet whether Tuck's paintball-bombing a shelter of kids during a capture-the-flag game or holding Lauren on a trapeze during a date, "This Means War" periodically circles back to quality both loud and small. "Sometimes falling is the best part," Tuck tells Lauren after joining her in a net below the trapeze, just before their first kiss. Their connection is real. And that romantic "Awwwww" moment, guys and gals, ultimately makes this a better V-Day flick than "The Vow."

Sophomore golfer Cody Hale has played an important role on the Bisons' golf team. It is not a likely coincidence that the team's success very often mirrors that of Hale's.
Lipscomb golf coach Ralph Samples said, "Cody is a very solid golfer as is evidenced by his success in high school and his two years here. He is a good leader, and I have been impressed by him."
Hale is a business management major who enjoys fishing and hunting in his spare time.
Hale began playing golf at the age of six. He credits his father for having a major influence on his golf game.
"My dad has probably been the biggest influence on me because he always pushed me when I really did not want to play and has helped me tremendously over the years with my swing and other aspects of my game," Hale said.
Although many athletes model their game after a particular professional athlete, Hale insists this is not necessarily so in his case.
"There is not one particular golfer I model my game after, but I think it helps my game just by watching how they practice and play," Hale said.
Among his many accomplishments in golf, Hale won state during his senior year of high school, recording the third lowest score in the history of 3A state championships in the process.
After college Hale plans to play golf professionally by beginning on some smaller tours and working his way up. Even after all of the success that Hale has experienced, he continues to work even harder, intent on continuing to improve.
"Throughout this season I have struggled on my putting, so that is one part of my game that I am hoping to improve," Hale said. "Also, I have spent a lot of time practicing and working on my ball striking, and that has helped me to be more consistent throughout the season."
Samples agreed. "Cody has been successful because of his work ethic. He practices a lot."
It is clear that Hale's hard work has been paying off as evidenced by his success this season, highlighted by his first collegiate tournament win in the fall.
"One of the biggest differences in my game this year has got to be the way I have hit the ball," Hale said, "This year I have hit the ball not only better, but with much more consistency

Accommodation and facilities:
First of all, I would like to question about their awareness on customer s booking. I ve booked through Sawadee.com and the payment has been made, the amount has been deducted from my card. Once we arrived, they insist me to pay the room and said that the payment will be collected only by cash. We have shown our payment details but they still want us to pay by cash during the checkin otherwise we cant stay there. The receptionist shown me their copy of booking. Interestingly, written there that the payments had been collected by Sawadee.com and I read it out loud. Then she admit her mistakes by overlooked the details of payment. To all guest, please be extra careful. Please print out as many details as possible regarding the payments that you ve made. Otherwise, you ll be charged twice. Please don t let this happen again. Overall was okay, location is good, near to Haad Rin only 10mins by Tuktuk. Easy to find food, rent motorbike, and 7eleven. Muslim food is next to Nakron Woodshop, located at Baan Tai roadside. The people is helpful, full of smile, but please bear in mind that Phangan is money-making island...dont get yourself cheated.
Reservation service:
Sawadee.com provide a good price range , even for peak days. The one that need improvement is the payment confirmation. The Payment status should be stated PAID VIA ...... or PAYMENT RECEIVED on the final print of the booking details so that no misunderstanding towards the guest and the service provider/hotel. I could give 3 instead of 4 or 5.

PUCO fines Duke Energy $500,000 following investigation of Lebanon apartment explosion
COLUMBUS, OHIO (Jan. 18, 2012) – The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) today approved an agreement that requires Duke Energy Ohio to pay a fine of $500,000 and to take steps to improve compliance with natural gas pipeline safety standards. The penalties are based upon the PUCO staff's investigation of a November 2010 apartment explosion in Lebanon, Ohio that injured seven and caused an estimated $1 million in property damage.
"The fine assessed today reflects the magnitude of the 2010 explosion in Lebanon and demonstrates that natural gas pipeline safety is a responsibility we take seriously," Chairman Todd A. Snitchler stated. "Going forward, we expect that Duke will continue to fulfill the commitments outlined in the agreement and work to reduce the likelihood that this type of incident occurs in the future."
In its investigation, the PUCO staff reported that Duke's contractor, Scope Services, Inc., failed to properly reestablish natural gas service to an apartment in the Steeple Chase Townhomes on Nov. 2, 2010. The source of the explosion and subsequent fire was an uncapped half-inch supply pipe in the apartment laundry room. The Scope Services employee failed to follow procedures for reestablishment of gas service and failed to investigate when a resident of the apartment reported the smell of gas. Hours later, when the apartment resident attempted to light a cigarette, the structure exploded.
PUCO staff concluded that the apartment explosion and subsequent fire resulted from Duke's failure to maintain proper procedures, including the requirement to perform a pressure test on a houseline prior to reestablishing service when gas service had been shut off for thirty days or more. Duke also failed to provide adequate oversight of contractor training regarding reestablishing gas service and responding to customers, complaints of gas odor.
As part of the agreement approved by the Commission, Duke has modified its operations and maintenance procedures, in compliance with PUCO rules, to require that a pressure test be conducted when reestablishing gas service that has been off for 30 or more days. The company has also agreed to re-qualify all company and contractor personnel on applicable procedures for reestablishing gas service. Duke must pay the $500,000 fine to the Ohio General Revenue Fund within 10 business days.
The PUCO is committed to ensuring the safe, reliable and environmentally sound operation of Ohio's natural gas pipeline system. PUCO investigators inspect each natural gas pipeline system in the state at least once every two years and review records and procedures implemented by utilities. When violations are detected, the PUCO orders corrective action and may assess fines and other penalties to ensure that Ohio's natural gas pipeline systems continue to deliver natural gas safely and reliably.
Today's Commission order, as well as the agreement filed by the PUCO staff and Duke on Nov. 14, 2011, is available online at www.PUCO.ohio.gov. Click on the link to Docketing Information System and enter case number 11-3636-GA-GPS.
The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) is the sole agency charged with regulating public utility service. The role of the PUCO is to assure all residential, business and industrial consumers have access to adequate, safe and reliable utility services at fair prices while facilitating an environment that provides competitive choices. Consumers with utility-related questions or concerns can call the PUCO Call Center at (800) 686-PUCO (7826) and speak with a representative.

The state's two largest electric utilities urged customers to be prepared for a winter storm that blanketed many parts of Arkansas with ice, while warning that outages in some parts of the state could last up to seven days.
The state's two largest electric utilities urged customers to be prepared for a winter storm that blanketed many parts of Arkansas with ice, while warning that outages in some parts of the state could last up to seven days.
PSC chair to head national utility commissioners group
Colette Honorable, chairman of the Arkansas Public Service Commission, has been named President of the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC). Founded in 1889, NARUC is a non-profit organization dedicated to representing the state public service commissions which regulate utilities that provide essential services such as energy, telecommunications, water, and transportation.
Entergy Arkansas, the state's largest electric utility, mobilized nearly 8,000 workers to do preventative and repair work for damage expected from the ice storm. The Electric Cooperatives of Arkansas secured assistance agreements with independent contractors and mutual aid arrangements with electric cooperatives both within Arkansas and surrounding states to help with potential outages and repairs.
Broadband groups sending recommendations to governor
The ambitious effort to expand broadband capability in Arkansas public schools moved forward on Tuesday (Dec. 3) as two working groups accepted an engineering report and recommended the state proceed with a potential public-private partnership.
Administration and industry officials have been working on a plan to boost the state's public schools to a nationally recommended broadband capability of 100 Mbps per 1,000 students and staff. The average Arkansas school district with 1,800 students currently has 40 Mbps of bandwidth and needs at least 140 Mbps more, according to an earlier Department of Information Services report. Industry leaders dispute that assumption.
Arkansas November tax revenues below forecast
Individual and corporate income taxes as well as sales tax collections were all lower than forecast in November, but year-to-date net revenues for the state are still 3.5% above last year's levels and 1.5% above forecast.
Year-to-date net available general revenues totaled $2.043 billion, a $69.6 million bump over last year's five-month total. Net revenues for the year are above forecast by $29.4 million. Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration officials said in November that a big swing in the volatile corporate income tax category was a major contributor to the lower numbers.
Delta Regional Authority invests $250,000 in Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub
The Delta Regional Authority announced a $251,105 award for facilities and operations for the Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub on Monday (Dec. 2).
Launched in July, the Innovation Hub is a non-profit organization in downtown North Little Rock dedicated to increasing entrepreneurial activity in Arkansas. It will house three inter-connected ventures that will work together to provide education, training, prototyping and start-up and entrepreneurial opportunities.
AG McDaniel pools deseg data for public review
Fresh off the announcement last week that a deal has been struck to settle a three decades-old school desegregation lawsuit, Attorney General Dustin McDaniel (D) announced a clearinghouse of information related to the case is available on his office's web site. Information regarding the proposed Pulaski County desegregation settlement and notice of a Jan. 13 fairness hearing have been posted to www.ArkansasAG.gov.
State chamber chief hopes immigration reform poll data persuades congress
Randy Zook, CEO of the Arkansas State Chamber of Commerce, tells the Arkansas News Bureau that new polling data from Republican-leaning congressional districts nationwide could persuade federal leaders to tackle comprehensive immigration reform. Currently, immigration reform is stalled in the U.S. House.
