Movies opening this weekend, still in theaters
Victoria (Megan Charpentier) brings a dark secret into her new home in the horror film "Mama." | Universal Pictures
Article Extras
Updated: February 25, 2013 11:39AM
PG-13 for brief strong language and suggestive humor
Maggie Smith, Tom Courtenay, Billy Connolly, Pauline Collins
The quiet life of three retired opera singers in a rest home is disrupted when the diva who used to be part of their quartet appears on the scene. Dustin Hoffman makes his directorial debut with the drama.
R for pervasive language, some sexual content and violence
Russell Crowe, Mark Wahlberg, Catherine Zeta-Jones
An ex-cop (Wahlberg) hired by New York City's mayor (Crowe) to trace the activities of his wife (Zeta-Jones) suddenly finds himself involved in a much bigger scandal.
R for strong bloody violence throughout, and language
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Eduardo Noriega, Johnny Knoxville, Forest Whitaker
It's hard to tell if he really is as slow and creaky as he's playing it in this surprisingly low-key action extravaganza, but one thing's for sure — he's still the same old Ah-nold. Just a little old and a little tired. In his first starring role in 10 years, Schwarzenegger plays a former LA detective who got tired of the mean streets and took the job of sheriff in a sleepy New Mexico border town. After escaping from the FBI, a vicious (yet handsome) Mexican drug lord heads for the border in a souped-up Corvette. The only thing standing in between him and freedom is Sheriff Ray and his ragtag group of deputies. To its credit, "The Last Stand" doesn't ask us to take any of this seriously. Despite the mounting body count, the overall mood is light and mildly humorous, with a touch of poignancy as the sheriff takes his tough-guy moves out of mothballs and attempts to lay down the law one last time.
PG-13 for violence and terror, some disturbing images and thematic elements
Jessica Chastain, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Megan Charpentier, Isabelle Nelisse
This old-school-creepy ode to demented mother love is a better than average shocker despite its predictable and slow-moving plot. It relies more on suspense and atmosphere than splattery gore, plus it features a memorably freaky spectral boogey-woman who's liable to linger as a nasty memory whether you want her to or not. After rescuing his two long-lost nieces from the cabin in the woods where they were abandoned five years ago by his brother, uncle Lucas (Coster-Waldau) brings the feral children home to live with his rocker girlfriend (Chastain) — unaware that they've been adopted by a psychotic ghost with baby issues from beyond the grave.
PG-13 for mature thematic material including a disturbing act and for brief language
Jean-Louis Trintignant, Emmanuelle Riva, Isabelle Huppert
Michael Haneke's films tend to contemplate human behavior at its worst. They do their best to make us reevaluate whatever comforting notions we may have about life and about our ability to order the world into a benign place. The same holds true for the much-celebrated, Cannes Festival-winning "Amour," a film that forces us to confront the very thing we like least to consider — the end of our lives — but with one new ingredient: tenderness and devotion. The Cannes Festival Palme d'Or-winning "Amour" is the story of Georges and Anne (Trintignant and Riva) a couple of retired, octogenarian Parisian piano teachers, whose quiet, content life is devastated when Anne is suddenly afflicted with a series of strokes that leave her partially paralyzed, then suicidal, then entirely helpless. Anne exacts a promise from her husband not to send her back to the hospital no matter what happens. A promise that Georges does his best to fulfill.
R for strong violence and language
Sean Penn, Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone
Action-comedy director Ruben Fleischer ("Zombieland") is no stranger to mayhem and crime, but taking on this ersatz, film noir-style, and almost entirely humorless, hard-boiled cops and robbers saga still seems a bizarre choice. "Gangster Squad" works within a just barely true-to-life framework to re-imagine the downfall of the post-World War II-era Los Angeles gangster kingpin Mickey Cohen — courtesy of a crew of maverick cops organized to attack him outside the law. Brolin is suitably square-jawed as the gangster squad honcho and Gosling is a plus as his enigmatic, world-weary right-hand man, but the mannered tough-guy dialogue is as over the top as the bullet-riddled final showdown in the heart of downtown LA.
R for strong violence including brutal, disturbing images, and for language
Jessica Chastain, Jason Clarke, James Gandolfini
This harrowing, morally complicated drama by the creative team behind the Oscar-winning "The Hurt Locker" is every bit as realistic, suspenseful and emotionally intense. The closely based on fact "Zero Dark Thirty" opens with the introduction of a fictional, composite character — Chastain as an obsessively dedicated young CIA officer named Maya. After working for years to track down Osama bin Laden, Maya is convinced the Al Qaeda leader is in Pakistan. Of course, we know she is right and we know what happens when she ultimately locates him, but that doesn't lessen the impact of this gripping, fast-moving dramatization, in which countless false starts and blind alleys only serve to heighten the feeling that the story could jump in any direction at any moment.

At least in the good old days, everyone participated, sometimes longer than expected. One of the Longs, I think it was Earl, is reputed to have said, "When I die I want to be buried in Louisiana because I want to stay active in politics."
The late Daley J. (Cat) Doucet, who was one of the most colorful of a list of colorful sheriffs of St. Landry Parish, had a tried-and-true method to get his vote to the polls. He'd visit the poorer districts of the parish before the election and distribute a new shoe to each of his supporters. Just one shoe.
His voters didn't get the other shoe until after the election, and then only if Cat carried their precinct
Dudley LeBlanc, the state senator and gubernatorial candidate from Vermilion Parish, used flattery. During one of his campaigns, he visited with an influential fellow in south Louisiana, a staunch leader in the Catholic Church. Dudley had just been to visit the Pope, or so he said, anyway.
Dudley talked politics for about a half-hour with the man, got up to leave, then snapped his fingers and turned back. "I almost forgot," he said. "You know, when I visited the Pope, I thought about you."
LeBlanc went to his car, and returned with a shoebox filled with identical religious medals. He fumbled through the box, picked up one, looked at it, picked up another, looked at it, went through a half-dozen or so.
Then his eyes lit up. "This is the one," he said, handing over a medal exactly like every other medal in the box. "This is the one I had the Pope bless especially for you."
Warren J. (Puggy) Moity was a classic campaigner—ask any television station manager who sat with his hand poised over the "bleep button" while Puggy was on the air.
Moity once ran for four different offices, from state to local level, all in the same election, just so he could "campaign against," (read that, ridicule in sometimes salty terms), any of his political enemies no matter what they were running for .
"What happens," he was asked, "if you should actually win all four?"
"Oh," he said, "I'll just keep the highest one and quit the others."
But if you got too many people to the polls, your opponent was obliged to do something about it. Some local politicians prized precincts in the far reaches of the Atchafalaya Basin. All sorts of things could happen — and did — to a ballot box being boated across the swamp.
And, of course, there were ways to undo a vote on the paper ballots — since election rules provided that a ballot was not valid if there were any extraneous marks on it.
One common trick: If I were a poll-watcher and thought that you voted against my man, I'd use the eraser end of my pencil to push it well down into the ballot box, "to be sure nobody can fool with it." The ink I'd smeared across the tip of my eraser made an illegal mark and spoiled the ballot, of course. But you didn't need to know that.

1. | Japan | ||
September 5, 2012 Urban Word of the Day
The country with the world's best toilets. On Japanese toilets you can get a spray, or bidet, with the push of a button.
Japan images | |||
2. | Japan | ||
The land of the rising sun.
A island nation to the east near Korea. Often overrated by anime junky. Many people in North American and parts of Europe have many misconceptions about Japan. Many believe that the country lives, eats, sleeps, and breaths anime and people still walk around with swords and ninja and shoguns are still about. Even though weapons have been banned from civilians for years. Many people think Japan invented anime, well they are wrong all they did was improve on the idea of Disney cartoons that American GI's brought over for entertainment. The reason why anime is where it's at today is because you don't have people who say animation is for kids nor do you have television producers saying."You can't put that on TV because its violent." The school system in japan is great even though they sometimes go to school 6 days a week depending on the school. Although Japan has little shootings "about 30 a year" more people just get stabbed. Teen suicide much like the rest of Asia is sky high because of the requirements of the Japanese school system. Electronics in Japan are advanced even though 90% of them where invented in the US or other places. They go to Japan to become improved or mass produced. Stuff in Japan can be EXTREMELY expensive. A small two bedroom one bathroom apartment in Tokyo can cost around $700,000 US dollars. Japan's history is varied. From Shoguns and warriors of the feudal era to the atrocities of WW2 to stories of honor and r... |
3. | Japan | ||
1) World's second largest single economy (disregarding Eurozone).
2) World class producers of automobiles. 3) World class producers of small electronic gizmos with no readily identifiable use. 4) World class producers of animated tentacle-rape porn, disturbingly.... 5) One of the few countries to feature vending machines with schoolgirl knickers in. 6) Has really perfected the *art* of toilet making. Music and automatic scent release, from a toilet shaped like a mouth? Fantastic! 7) Has the world's second largest defence budget, in real terms. 8) Doesn't seem to do much with that money. One can only assume that a giant robot godzilla is around the corner. 9) Limited land area. One can only ski for a short distance before smacking into the side of a cooperative bank. Japan. An odd place to visit.
4. | japan | ||
Bizarre. Just a very, very bizarre and frightening place. It's the only nation where one can buy both porn and women's underwear from that freaky vending machine a block away from your cramped apartment.
Women should stay FAR away from any crowded place, because it's more that probable that she'll get groped at least six times before she gets back to her hotel room. If she's lucky. Dude, I just got back from Japan. I'm fucking broke, but I got these DVD's where cartoon 12-year-olds get reamed by giant tentacle monsters. I feel dirty inside.
5. | Japan | ||
A very brutal country. You can buy almost everything you can dream of from vending machines. Famous for anime, manga, and disgusting porn (scatophagy, vomit, violent rape, hentai). A peaceful, polite country on the surface with a violent undertone. Overcrowded; surprisingly clean; extremely high smoking rate; obssessed with electronic gadgets; biggest producer economical, quality but also ugly-looking automobiles.
Their music includes cute j-pop to ultra-brutal grindcore. Suicide rate is high, people are nationalistic. I am going to visit Japan this weekend, should I bring my machine gun?
6. | Japan | ||
A country disliked by surrounding countries, especially Korea. ( Though there are many Koreans who admire and embrace the Japanese culture) Its bad relationship developed from unpleasant past and government problems between the two. It is economically wealthy and traditional or stereotypical Japanese people are known to be quiet and polite on the outside and have quite different feelings on the inside. I personally believe Koreans should not hate the Japanese people because many just have the wrong idea about Korea and its history. Although, I do hate the government and its actions in the past and present.
Also some people have claimed Korea is like Japan and have copied them, but in truth, Japan has actually stolen many customs of China and Korea. I apologize for my form of writing. I tried not being too biased but I could not help it. |
7. | Japan | ||
Japan, a country often not seen for what it really is. It is one of the world's largest powers, however, many think everyone wears kimono, watches anime, practices karate everyday, and eat only rice. There is much more to it than that.
-Food- Due to being an island, Japan's main source of food is seafood. Sushi is one of Japan's specialties and can be made in a variety of ways. Popular dishes include Nigiri, Gunkan, and Norimaki. (source : japan-guide.com) Another type of popular Japanese foods are its sweets. Some of the most famous are Pocky (bisquit sticks covered with a type of icing), Pucca (sea-creature shaped pretzle-like snack filled with chocolate), and Ramune Candies (made after a popular drink called Ramune that's very sweet and comes in a glass bottle with a marble in the neck). These items are shipped around the world and can commonly be found in a local store. -Housing- In the common Japanese household, many things are different from what you may be used to. When you enter one's home, you take off your shoes at a front square, switching to slippers (common colour is green). *Bathroom* When you need to use the restroom, there is another type of slippers available call... |

Deb and I had known each other for two months when she asked me a serious question: "Do you really eat bread with every meal?"
The look of astonishment on my face hinted at the mix of cultures that our marriage would bring. "Of course," I said. "Don't you?"
Deb was raised in Canton, Connecticut, up in the hills northwest of Hartford. Lots of pine trees and farms and country roads. The nearest Italian bakery was forty-five minutes away.
I grew up in Providence. There were bakeries everywhere, and Italian bread was a staple at our supper table. When I learned the Our Father at catechism, give us this day our daily bread made total sense to me.
On Sunday afternoons, with her gravy simmering on the stove, my mother would ask me to run up to La Salle Bakery to grab a loaf of bread. "And don't eat it all on the way back," she'd say. As I walked the eight blocks home with the fresh loaf tucked under my arm, Pavlov's Theory was proven once more. Salivating, I'd tear off the end of the bread and bite into its crust.
Up on Federal Hill, where I worked at my grandfather's baby clothes store, my aunts would send me to Scialo's for bread. Driving home from the Hill, I'd sometimes stop at Amore's on Valley Street if we needed a loaf. And if I didn't get to a bakery in time – bread sold out! – I'd head to a neighborhood market where I might find a loaf of Crugnale's (perfect crust).
After college, I lived in a tenement near Holy Ghost Church on Federal Hill, right next door to a bakery. Each morning, I'd awake to the smell of bread baking in the ovens. Heaven.
When Deb took her first job out of college, she worked in East Hartford – in a building that was right next door to a Wonder Bread factory. (You can't make this stuff up.)
It's Sunday afternoon. My gravy's simmering on the stove, but I need macaroni. I run to Dave's Marketplace. As I deliberate over which pasta shape to buy, my phone buzzes in my pocket. It's a text from Deb: Don't forget the bread.

Hi John,
What a joy to be the one who had to go to the bakery and get the Italian bread! To be the first to rip off the end of the loaf - even without butter, it was great! A bit of heaven on earth when eaten after it had been dipped into the pot of gravy simmering on the stove on Sundays! I remember my Dad having Italian bread delivered every other day and the unwritten rule that there better be an end left for Dad! There was nothing better than being at Grandma and Grandpa's house after Grandpa went shopping on "The Hill" - I'm considered by some to be a good cook, but no matter how hard I try I cannot duplicate the tastes of my youth! Thank you for prompting this trip down memory lane. So when do we discuss Italian confections? - like say Sfogliatelle, my all time favorite!

Gotta love the Crugnales. It's a favorite of my wife's and they serve it at Mama Spummoni (now just Spummoni) in Pawtucket. Lucce's (now Divine) in Warwick would serve a crusty, toasted bread with their dipping oil. Thanks for the piece John,

Great for making Garlic Bread. On another note, Just a heads up. Riccotti's sell you a loaf of their bread for $1.00 plus tax. Ever time I go there people tell me they did not know that. It is great for making garlic bread also or your own grinders.
Have never found their loaf types in any store and it is always frest, from Batista I think.
PS; Great for making "French dip" also ;-}

Many years ago I worked at a Ricotti's sub shop in Rhode Island. To my surprise they bought all their rolls from Piantedosi Bakery in my home town of Malden, Mass.! Apparently, from all the comments here, that is still where they get them. They are the best. Also, when I was a girl my grandma would take me to Nelson's Bakery in the Maplewood area of Malden (long gone now). Their white bread was to die for. It was dark brown (not burnt) and crusty on the outside and melt-in-your-mouth creamy, soft and white inside. The texture is indescribable and I have never had anything like it since.

Wonderful story! Sfogliatelle: is that the clam-shaped pastry with the incredible custard/cheesy filling inside? To die for, but hard to ask for. How the heck do you pronounce it? Puhleeze write out a phonetic spelling and save me from the mortification of trying to describe the best dessert in the universe to clerks that think I'm a wacko...lol.

Yup, that's the one. Here's an audio link for the pronunciation of sfogliatelle – http://bit.ly/VnI2D8 (just click on the speaker icon) – though I'm sure there are local variations. I remember saying something like "schfoo–gah–dell". Correct or not, it did the trick, and soon I was biting into that delicious pastry. Thanks for reading!

Great Article......Living on the "Hill" in the 50's on Vinton Street, the best italian bread could be found from so many places. I remember as a child going to a little bakery on Courtland Street (around the corner from Tell Street ?). I also would buy some dough so my Mother could make her delicious pizza. If I remeber correctly the dough cost 10 cents per pound back then!!

I have enjoyed each and every one of your stories. They all take me somewhere pleasant. This one brought me back to 7:00 Mass when we were not allowed to eat before communion.

The smell of that Sunday bread.
Dad calling, "…and don't eat it all on the way home."

Years ago when I was about 10, my grandfather had bread delivered to his house. I don't remember where it came from but it was warm and oh so good. It was delivred early in the morning in a wicker basket with a handle, similar to what you would by tomatoes in now. The loaves lay on a Mopina (italian for dish towel) neatly in a pile. The delivery man known as "Tony the baker" was also a bookie. He used to have these little slips of paper with numbers on them that looked like records for the bread he was delivering. All the while it was the daiily number being played by customers. The early form of the lottery. Any one else have a recollection such as this?

The little bakery on Courtland Street was Buono's. But the best bread was Palmieri's on Ridge Street. All the loaves would be lined up, top to bottom in the glass window. No frills, no doilies. It had the crust that you could break your tooth on. And their wine biscuits were tops too. Then, you could travel to Charles Street and off of it was Simone's Bakerly, with the crown shaped sign that stated, 'THIS IS SIMONE'S BAKERY'. Theyhad great bread and took the prize for pepper biscuits.

Just a little trivia, which most people probably never heard of.
Everyone smells things different and never forgets them, they are unique to everyone. To this day I remember the Pizza smell from the Pizza's my father brought home from "Café 200" in Newport when I walk into Italian Restaurants. This was over 45 years ago yet the exact smell comes to mind like it is right there, But I have yet to have one that taste exactly like theirs since. Same with the bakeries back then and the local ones all have unique smells. This why we are all so good at remembering these breads I think ;-}
More than sight and sound and touch, smell is the sense most linked to both memory and emotion. Scientists say this is probably because scent is so important to survival.
PS; I find that John has a knack for bringing up the best of our memories ;-}.
Music is also a memory rarely lost in us. Though it drives you crazy when you cannot get the song out of your head lol. I like to do a well known Xmas Carol in the summer to drive friends nuts on that lol.

Jack Baillargeron
3:46 pm on Friday, February 1, 2013
Your Welcome it is uncanny at that. ;-}
I wish I could find the study that say it applies to all scents being unique to each individual, no 2 people smell the same way, it always amazes me the human brains mysteries and quirks lol.

"The Wonder of Italian Bread", eh?
If Silvio Berlusconi's company were to buy the assets of Wonder Bread out of bankruptcy, he would be known as "The Italian of Wonder Bread".
Bah dump bump. Tissssssssssh.
P.S. It is possible to sop up tomato sauce with Wonder Bread, but not advisable to do so.

On Wednesday, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee said the attack that killed al-Awlaki was justified.
"This is somebody who had said that he didn't want his U.S. citizenship anymore," Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Michigan, told MSNBC's "Andrea Mitchell Reports."
He said al-Awlaki had officially joined al-Qaida, and al-Qaida had declared war on the United States."
"The legal basis of this goes back many, many years when U.S. citizens would go and fight for foreign nations that were engaging in combat with the United States," Rogers said. "So what they were saying is, once you've made that choice, you no longer get the protections that you would. I mean, if you join the enemy overseas, you join the enemy overseas. And we're going to fight the enemy overseas."
But civil libertarians and other groups have not been satisfied with the administration's transparency or its policy.
Christopher Anders, senior legislative counsel at the American Civil Liberties Union, told CNN that senators want answers to key questions around a program that Brennan was deeply involved in while at the White House.
"The most basic details of it have been withheld," he said.
Amnesty International also said Congress should grill Brennan on his claim that the administration's drone strikes are "conducted in full compliance with the law."
"Furthermore, Congress should immediately hold public hearings with independent experts to examine the administration's legal reasoning and ensure that the administration is following the 'rule book' for the use of lethal force that already exists: international human rights law and, in the very narrow circumstances to which it applies, international humanitarian law," the group said.
Moreover, Ben Emmerson, a United Nations expert on counterterrorism and human rights, announced plans in October to investigate U.S. drone attacks and the extent to which they cause civilian casualties.

As I sit back and reflect on my freshman year, I realize two things. Class and dorm life is a lot of fun, and the people here are extremely friendly and personal too.
I thought classes would be easy; its my freshman year. How hard could they be? Well, they weren't hard, but it was challenging to stay organized. I thought I was organized in high school when I had at least 7 classes. Now I have five.
I'm not going to lie, its hard to stay organized with all the work you need for the week. I found it easier when I got a planner where I could write everything down. Then after I was done with classes I could sit down and go down the list of assignments and cross them off as I completed them.
Dorm life, I would have to say is one of the most interesting things about staying at college. There will be those quiet afternoons and evenings but at night the dorm comes alive (at least in my dorm). During the day the dorm is quiet and peaceful (perfect time to get all your work done), then after curfew when everyone is in the dorm….we start to have some fun. Okay, it doesn't always happen that way. I enjoy playing Phase 10 and Dutch Blitz during the afternoons with some of the girls and a few guys. During the spring-like weather we have been having, we enjoy sitting outside doing homework together with some socializing.
I cannot express how many caring and friendly people we have on this campus. The teachers not only teach you the information you need to learn, but they take time to get to know you and to make sure you understand the material being taught. The students as a whole are like a family in some ways. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't get a hello passing by a student, whether we're friends or not. Along with being friendly, the students are very accepting. Coming from a public school this really impressed me. Instead of ignoring what you are saying, they sit down and talk to you and direct you in a godly way. This also goes for the faculty on campus.
This year has been an amazing life-changing experience. When you're unsure about visiting a college, just remember dorm life is where the fun is!

Versailles Mesh from Ann Sacks features a composition that resembles aged mirror, complete with mottling and dramatic colorations, yet weaves in a textural element for a modern edge.

When used in this application, the wiring adds dimensional, geometric relief. The glass is hand-silvered by artisans employing 18th century mirror-making techniques, then hand-sanded to bring out its natural imperfections and finally hand-cut. Suitable for all vertical, dry applications, Versailles Mesh is offered in four colorways: Silver Flake, Rose Butter, Dark Bronze and Mercury. The tiles are available in 6"x6", 6"x12", 6"x24", 12"x12", 12"x24", and 24"x24" fields, with custom sizes also available.

Before I talk about Open Hack, I want to note that we are having Soft Circuit Saturday tomorrow, Feb. 9 from 1-4pm at 3711 Market St. If you want to try out some wire-free ways of moving electrons around, come by and check it out!
Last night's Open Hack brought new and old faces to The Hacktory. Some came to chat, to see the space and the tools, and to get a sense of what's going on here. Our friend NancyLee brought her education students over from Penn to build fast plant terrariums in the workshop. Far had ambitions to get one of the 3D printers running, but ran aground on a missing TTL cable; luckily he has extras at home, so we'll try again next week. Steph shared her recent obsession with hexaflexagons, bringing examples in paper and fabric. They're pretty mind-expanding! Read More

The Royal Netherlands Air Force (Koninklijke Nederlandse Luchtmacht) was a major operator of the Lockheed F-104G with 138 aircraft. Between 1962 and 1984 the KLu used 3 variants, F-104G, TF-104G and the RF-104G. The 138 aircraft consisted of 95 F-104G/RF-104 built by Fokker, 25 F-104G built by FIAT and 18 TF-104G built by Lockheed in California. The TF-104Gs were used by an operational conversion unit known as the Dutch Masters. TF-104G D-5187 was c/n 583A-5817 and was delivered on January 2, 1968. D-5187 served with the KLu until it was sold to Turkey on November 30, 1983.

Last month, the Sarasota City Commission asked for more time to consider the purchase of three parcels at Orange Avenue and Laurel Street for $5.5 million.
City Manager Bob Bartolotta had recommended the city buy the lots to create more parking spaces for the Burns Square area. The first appraisal, completed in January, valued the land at $6.6 million. But commissioners questioned the accuracy of the appraisal and asked for a second one.
That second appraisal was completed last week, and it came in at $5.7 million — about $900,000 less than the first appraisal, but the contract offer of $5.5 million was still below the appraised value.
Monday, commissioners voted unanimously to put off the decision once again, because the value may go down even further, and the city could end up over paying.
Currently, the city leases the land and its 63 parking spaces from Realtor Michael Saunders for $32,000 per year.
Vice Mayor Kelly Kirschner suggested the city continue that lease while it watches the market and perhaps reconsiders the sale later.
Saunders' attorney, Michael Furen, thought that might be presumptuous.
"It's funny," he said. "They assume they'll be able to still lease the property."
Saunders said it's a month-by-month lease, so if a better offer comes along, she might take it.
According to a city parking survey, Sarasota is somewhat reliant on the Saunders lot to accommodate the parking needs of Burns Square.
At weekday peak hours, 391 cars visit Burns Square. During weekend peak hours, that number climbs to 500 cars. Currently, there are 190 total space in the Burns Square area, including the 63 spaces from the Saunders lot. The Saunders lot makes up 33% of available parking in that area.
The city is 201 parking spots short during the week and 310 short on the weekend. That deficit would increase if the city is no longer able to use the Saunders property.
However, commissioners said that the current economic conditions and real-estate market didn't warrant spending $5.5 million right now.
"We need parking in Burns Square," said Commissioner Suzanne Atwell. "But this is not the time."
Said Kirschner: "We need to protect our tax base, not erode it."
But Saunders said trying to predict real-estate prices is a risky practice.
"Markets go up and down," she said. "No one can judge where the bottom is."

Visual impressions of MEVA at the bauma 2013....
Growing demands on concrete finish in architectural construction require growing performance from formwork and forming face. Complex concrete mixtures, additives, high concrete pressure and slim building geometries – irregular, rounded, bent, curved and slanted – challenge MEVA´s engineering expertise – all the way to special designs.
more informations
In civil engineering MEVA offers state-of-the-art technology for the construction of industry and infrastructure facilities that challenge through size or span, height or volume. MEVA formwork engineers are trusted for making feasible what seems impossible.
Requirements in high-rise construction are complex and demand expertise far beyond standard formwork applications. Where crane time is limited, space cramped and schedules are tight, it is HOW you work that decides, rather than with WHAT. MEVA's portfolio of technology and product is comprehensive. Our engineering expertise likewise.
In commercial and residential construction, cost-effectiveness, speed and safety count and functionality dominates over prestige. MEVA understands work flow and provides the contractor with clever solutions so that even the hundredth pour delivers the finish required.

Local Florist Runs Into Scam
By: Tyler Edwards
Updated: February 6, 2009
One tactic scam artist may use is a TTY Telephone Relay Service, which is actually for the hearing impaired.
A floral company in Abilene has been up close and personal with this scam.
"Be careful on anything your doing, especially here this shop because most of our business is phone in orders," Gary Normin of Gary's Floral Gallery said, "so we have to be very, very careful."
Businesses should always make sure that an order is legitimate, or that the buyer possessing a credit card is the actual owner of the card.

Bez & Praise Rock Project Fame Stage!
Monday, 07 November 2011 10:00The contestants were all in high spirits, gorgeously decked and ready to give their best, after yesterday's display of forgiveness by the judges, that saw noone sent home.
To spice up the show Bez was present as a guest artiste and judge, along with him was Matilda Duncan who gave sharp insights in the absence of TY Mix and Nomoreloss.
Chidinma opened with a beautiful rendition of 'Listen' by Beyonce and it was a great way to start. This ushered in gentle Zaliha who with a chic, naughty school girl look performed Adele's 'Rolling in the deep', as a matter of fact it wasn't an easy song to render, the judges remarked. Big boy Isaac was next to perform 'Water runs dry' by Boyz 11 Men which the judges felt he struggled with. Calm and collected Aziga must have felt so good with himself after successfully singing Lionel Richie's 'Stuck on you'. But the judges felt there's still more this Port Harcourt dude could do. Liberian Princess sure dressed like a priceless princess as she elegantly performed Whitney Houston's 'Greatest Love'.

It was nerve-wracking. It was unsettling.
It was a glimpse at the future.
Tuesday's overtime classic between Michigan and Ohio State quickly becomes one of the best games of the college basketball season and, perhaps more importantly, provided Michigan a trial by fire on closing out big-time games against a big-time opponent.
That may need that skill again, come, say March.
Michigan survived in large part to one of its biggest strengths; 3-point shooting. A career night from junior Tim Hardaway Jr. certainly didn't help.
The fact is, four of Michigan's starters played extremely well and the Wolverines got a career night from freshman Mitch McGary. Still it needed overtime to put away the No. 10 Buckeyes.
The time for critiques will come later. In the meantime, Michigan showed for the second time this season that it is good enough to bounce back from a loss to knock off a top-10 conference rival.
Take nothing for granted, the Wolverines needed to win this game. A second loss to Ohio State would've put Michigan in an unfavorable position in the logjam that is the Big Ten standings. A victory keeps the pressure on the rest of the conference and extends the margin for error deeper into this brutal stretch of schedule.
More importantly, Michigan — dogged by some for a lack of a defensive presence, especially with Jordan Morgan largely out of the lineup — won the game in the overtime on the defensive end of the floor.
Trey Burke's block of Aaron Craft on Ohio State's second-to-last possession and Hardaway Jr.'s block on a would-be game-tying layup in the final seconds showcased a rarely-seen grit and downright nastiness from a team perceived as soft. Continued...
That certainly wasn't the case in the final minute. Michigan gutted out Tuesday's win in a way they hadn't done to this point in the season.
Unlike Saturday's loss in Bloomington, the Wolverines never looked rattled, even when being outplayed.
Much of that had to do with Hardaway Jr. catching fire when Michigan faced its biggest deficit, eight, with 13 minutes left in regulation. While the junior guard will, deservedly so, receive much of the credit for keeping his team in the game, an improved performance of the three key freshman certainly made a difference. Glenn Robinson III, Nik Stauskas and Mitch McGary combined to finish with 35 points— 46 percent of Michigan's offense.
Michigan has done a tremendous job this season bouncing back from losses, not allowing defeats in hyped-up games to cost them more than once. The challenge will continue to be tempering the emotions in victory as well as defeat.
The Wolverines turn their attention to Madison and a Wisconsin team whose only home loss was a two-point defeat at the hands of Michigan State.
Wisconsin, 6-3 in the Big Ten, are too simply too good an opponent to be overlooked. After an emotional win like Tuesday's over rival Ohio State, the Wolverines must treat the Badgers as such.
Though, if Tuesday is any indication, a new-found grit and toughness will join the Wolverine on the trip to Madison, which could spell trouble for anyone who awaits.
