Cole news edilOT-Signpost The decision of the Board of Regents in June 1 996 to move Utah universities to semesters has resulted in a campus-wide scramble as administrators, faculty and staff rush to make the conversions that will be effective fall 1998. According to Judith Mitchell, chair of the faculty senate, there was no recognition of the magnitude of the change the conversion would bring. She said the Utah legislature has been pushing for semester conversion for a long time and the political pressure influenced the Board of Regents' decision to convert from quarters to PliS:::. I . Kick up your heels! Shauna Arnold wants to ensure her place on the squad with a high energy routine at the cheerleader tryouts. inside post editorial see page 4 '98 3 E TO SEMESTERS semesters. "Despite the fact that faculty and students were not in favor, they went ahead and made the change," Mitchell said. But Mitchell and Bob Higginson, chair of the university curriculum and general education committee, see many advantages to the conversion that will benefit Weber State University students. Students will be able to transfer among Utah schools with greater ease features see page 6 now that all core classes have common competencies, courses and course numbers, Mitchell said. "Seventy-two percent of all students in the state of Utah move from institution to institution, so it's very important that the courses articulate," Mitchell said. Departments can also re -evaluate their classes. "There's an opportunity for departments to conceptualize their curriculum that they haven't had in the recent past," Higginson said. "Some departments have had to really think in some creative ways." Many departments have had to combine courses and the result is courses that will be more in depth and provide more information to students. Property crime numbers mostly down at Utah universities in ' 96 By Taylor S. Fielding managing editor-Sgywsf The number of burglaries and larcenies at Weber State University were down in 1996 from the numbers reported in 1 995, and once again, WSU's crime numbers rank it at the bottom of the list in comparison to the University of Utah, Brigham Young University and Utah State University. However, not all of the news was good. Motor vehicle, thefts increased from 1995 levels. Burglaries, larcenies and motor vehicle thefts are all classified as property crimes, and overall comparison between the four major universities in northern Utah shows a decline in property crime numbers. 1, WO students form line before dawn By Mellyn L. Cole news editor-S ignpost Hundreds of wrinkled and sleep-deprived students were crammed into the halls of Ogden's LDS Institute last Wednesday as early as 5 a.m. and this Tuesday morning, the halls will probably be just as full. Armed with blankets, pillows and backpacks, students last Wednesday were hoping to get tickets to hear Gordon B. Hinckley, President of the LDS Church, speak at this Tuesday's devotional. "It's a really big opportunity that doesn't come very often and it's going to be really awesome to hear President Hinckley speak,"said Alan Gustaveson, a Weber State University economics major who stood in line to get a ticket. "I wanted to be there in person." SDOftS see page 8 "The curriculum appears, to me, to be maybe a little leaner but a lot meaner," Higginson said. Robert Soderberg, chair of the health science department said, "It's painful, but I feel that it's a valuable procedure because we go and look at our curriculum and re-vamp it," said Robert Soderberg Because the conversion has to be in place by Fall 1998, faculty, staff and administrators have had extra pressure. "That's one of the.. .challenges," Higginson said. "Faculty feel that the conversion is taking them away from other things they do." In addition, deciding which courses should receive general education credit has created a lot of dis Crime on campus Weber State Police Dispatcher Lisa Allen-Hogensen reports there were four burglaries on campus reported to WSPD from January through September 1996. This is down from seven burglaries in 1995, and is even below the 1 994 numbers of five burglaries. Allen-Hogensen said 83 larcenies were reported to WSPD during the same period in 1996. Again, the preliminary 1996 numbers fall below the 1 995 levels for larcenies, of 1 42, but Sharon Bergcr, the Institute's office manager and executive secretary came in early Wednesday to hand out tickets. "1 came in at 6 a.m.," Berger said. "I saw some tents. I saw all kinds of sleeping bags, bed rolls and blankets."Berger estimates there were around 700 students already at the Institute by 6 a.m. Gustaveson said, "I got there at 6:30 a.m. and that's only because I was up until about 1:15 the morning before, otherwise I wanted to get their earlier." Marie Davis, WSU senior and chairwoman of the LDSSA publicity committee, arrived at the Institute at 6:15 a.m. for a regularly scheduled meeting. "The parking lot was already full and the streets were lined with cars." Davis said. "When I walked in, the hall was just lined with people." Davis said some members of the the Other Side see page 12 cussion. "The classes who are losing general education feel like they're losing their students," Soderberg said. "I think. ..it's boiled down to a turf battle." Higginson disagrees. "I don't see the committee as being territorial," Higginson said. "I think there is a cohesiveness with regards to vision. In the 20 plus years that I have been in education, I personally have not been involved in a committee that has been so cohesive and involved." Mitchell said, "Where courses should be housed creates tension. I think there would be something re-See Challenge page 2 are higher than in 1 994 when only 75 larcenies occurred. Motor vehicle thefts during 1996, however, have increased 300 percent over 1 995 and 1 994. There were three motor vehicle thefts in 1 996 compared to only one each in 1995 and 1994. WSU's low crime numbers consistently ranked it fourth in comparison to the four major northern Utah universities. This year is no exception. According to information obtained from the campus police departments of the University of Utah and USU, as well as preliminary numbers for BYU and WSU provided by Allen-Hogensen, the Uof U tops the list for most burglaries, with 21 . USU See Crime page 3 Sigma Gamma Chi fraternity even pitched tents in the parking lot so they would be sure to get tickets. According to Gustaveson, the scene inside the building was incredible."There were probably about five times as many people as I thought would be there that early," Gustaveson said. "There were tons of people all over the halls. You could hardly walk through the hallways to get in line." Of the 1500 available tickets, Berger said the office passed out around 1200 tickets Wednesday. "We had probably 1100 of those students here all at once," she said.

|Weber State University
|Associated Students of Weber State University; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday stopped the proceedings in the Sandiganbayan against retired Maj. Gen. Carlos Garcia that resulted from a plea bargain hammered out in February 2010 with then Ombudsman Merceditas Gutierrez downgrading plunder charges to lesser offenses.
The former comptroller of the Armed Forces of the Philippines is being tried for direct bribery and facilitating money laundering after the government dropped the P303-million plunder charges that carry a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.
Supreme Court spokesman Theodore Te said the tribunal's Third Division, in issuing a temporary restraining order (TRO), acted on the certiorari petition filed by the Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) against the Sandiganbayan Special Second Division as well as the Office of the Ombudsman, the Office of the Special Prosecutor and Garcia.
Direct bribery is punishable by six to 10 years in jail, money laundering from seven to 14 years' imprisonment.
"Without giving due course to the petition, the court required the respondents to comment on the petition within 10 days from notice and in order not to render the instant petition moot and academic, issued a TRO effective immediately enjoining the respondent Sandiganbayan from continuing with the proceedings … and promulgating judgment based on the assailed plea bargaining agreement," Te told a news briefing.
He also said the court also stopped the Sandiganbayan from implementing the Dec. 16, 2010, resolution approving Garcia's request for bail.
The OSG, on orders of President Aquino, went to the Supreme Court after the Sandiganbayan denied the government lawyers' bid to intervene in the proceedings and turned down their subsequent motion for reconsideration.
The plea bargain forced Gutierrez to resign in May 2011 before the Senate could start her impeachment trial for betrayal of public trust.
Gutierrez, who was appointed by former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, was impeached by the House of Representatives for approving the Garcia plea bargain.
Justice Secretary Leila de Lima welcomed the high court's action. "That's a very good sign the Supreme Court would be able to take a really hard look at the issues and study the very significant issues raised in the petition of the OSG," she said.

Manila, Philippines -- The Philippine government has asked the Supreme Court to junk the petition seeking a Writ of Kalikasan for Tubbataha Reef and calling for a stop to joint US-PH military exercises in local waters pending clear guidelines on environment protection in the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) following the grounding of a US Naval vessel, the USS Guardian, on the marine sanctuary.
The petition filed by a multi-sectoral group which included party-lists and environmental advocates also called on the SC to hold the US Navy and the officers and crew of the US Guardian liable for damage to the Tubbataha Reef and"to provide just and equitable environmental rehabilitation measures and such other reliefs as are just and equitable under the premises."

MANILA, Philippines—The panel of five international arbitrators that would hear the Philippines' case against China's claims in the West Philippine Sea (South China Sea) has been completed, the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) said on Thursday.
DFA spokesman Raul Hernandez said that Judge Shunji Yanai, president of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (Itlos), had appointed the last three members of the panel.
"That means the case is moving and, as expected, we are hoping that this case that we filed in the tribunal will proceed as soon as possible," said Hernandez in a press briefing.
In a letter dated April 24, Yanai informed Solicitor General Francis Jardeleza, head of the Philippine legal team pursuing the case, that the panel had been completed.

- Excellent!FridayVIPDined on 9/27/2014There was a group of four of us, we started with our excellent waitress Kate who was an absolute pleasure. The menu had enough choices without being bogged down. Two of us had the Scottish salmon, one had the salmon with scallops special and another veal and pasta. The salmon was huge, you ordered your sides separate. We all cleaned our plates..the food, service and ambiance was absolutely excellent.

- Amazing! Highly recommend.AmyfromBocaDined on 9/20/2014We ate dinner there this past Friday night and the food was amazing. This was our first time eating here so we really didn't know what to expect. Everything was extremely fresh and the Chef did a great job with flavor combinations. My son started off with a lobster risotto which was delicious and then he had the duck which he said was really good and before I got to try it, it was all gone. My husband had a caesar salad to start and then the Veal bolognese. Yum. And I had a few different apps. All very good. We were so full we couldn't even have dessert. Which was a shame because the list looked incredible. I would definitely go back. All 3 of us were really pleased.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fabulous foodTwinklingtoesDined on 9/12/2014Dinner here was wonderful! Food was delicious. Carlo the owner came by to our table at least 3 times to check on our experience.

- Great place to celebratelennie44Dined on 8/16/2014Went out with a group of 4 people to celebrate friends moving into the area. Service was excellent, cocktail and wine list was fun, the menu options were superb. It was difficult to pick among the options, but everyone was happy with their choice. And the dessert was the perfect end to the evening. We felt well cared for the entire time.Special Features:

- Five star diningTheDevineDined on 8/9/2014A five star hidden gem. The best restaurant in any country I have ever visited is Circe. The food is so memorable that you will never go anywhere else again. The bar is a delight to the senses. The attention to detail and romantic atmosphere is intoxicating. The staff is knowledgable and attentive to your every need. The sights, sounds and artistic tones will leave you wanting more. This is something you just have to experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Incredible food and great service!OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 8/9/2014We live north of Boston so we don't get to Providence very often, but we had such a nice evening at Circe that we have to share. Four exceptional meals were delivered to our table last Saturday night, and we truly appreciated our server; Dave. He did an outstanding job and made us feel like we were his only table. It was a fun-filled, delicious, unhurried dining experience, and one we will remember for a long time. Well done!Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 7/27/2014We found this restaurant through Open Table. We were in Providence and stopped for brunch. It is definitely five stars. The restaurant is beautiful and the service and food were over the top. We had omelettes, caprese salad, Jonah crab hash and another breakfast egg dish. All were wonderful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Find!MabeatsDined on 7/26/2014We took a risk going to Circe, knowing nothing about it other than what we read on line, and we were taking out-of-town guests. So we were thrilled to find another restaurant to add to our "Must go back" list. The service was outstanding. Our waitress was enthusiastic, helpful, and attentive, as were the young men who assisted her. The cocktails were unparalleled. Carlo's special recipes were like nothing we'd ever tasted. We were particularly fond of the Whole Foods cocktail and Hibiscus martini. We started with the calamari, lightly breaded, done to perfection. Two of us had the scallops which were delicate and perfectly prepared. The salmon was also lovely. The meal ended with lemon tart and white chocolate crème brule. Wonderful.Special Features:
- Hidden Gemjsnb101Dined on 7/24/2014My wife and I wanted to try a new place and we found some great review about Circe... which caused some shock when we arrived, because it was relatively empty. The bar was almost full with seemingly a post-work (Thursday) cocktail crowd, but only one or two other tables with guests dining. The service was fantastic, the food was delicious. The only reason it marked a 4/5 stars was that I wasn't a fan of the spices in the meatball appetizer -- but my wife was the one who ordered it, and she loved it. We had the grilled pizza and beef tartar, which were both phenomenal. The owner even stopped by to check on us and showed a clear passion for his restaurant, which is always refreshing. I hope more people start going!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 7/18/2014Nice mod look with strikingly upholstered chairs, a nice buzz in the atmosphere. Good drinks and an exciting wine list, the all-Spanish theme is bold and there are some real bargains (e.g Mas Donis and some Bierzo selections as well as Lopez de Haro Rioja, all Parker 90+ wines in the $20's and low 30"s!!!) Very nice selection of tapas well prepared, some dishes genuinely exciting (Chilean Sea Bass Cheeks over lobster succotash was superb) and others standard issue (Gambas al Ajo would have been nicer crisped up in shell especially with heads on) ....overall a winner and will definitely returnSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- EhChrisDined on 7/17/2014The restaurant is beautiful but the food was just ok. Everything we ordered was cooked well but it all lacked flavor. Nothing tasted bad, just didn't make me want to come back. It was Restaurant Week so not sure if that was a factor.Special Features:
- Awesome Bar StaffNPdinerDined on 7/17/2014Had a great time at the bar. Bartenders were friendly and made some amazing drinks. Great bar menu as well. Overall a great night!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Deborah MoxhamTallulahDined on 7/16/2014Circe has a striking space with dramatic high ceilings, a clean white look, and a happening bar. It offers plenty of seating, including a balcony which overlooks it all but affords a quieter space. The menu is full of appealing options and the food is stellar. Everyone at my table of six though this own dish was the best, from the fried oysters to the watermelon gaspzpacho , the range of appetizers was notable. My cider brined pork chop with chutney and a sage cream sauce was a knockout. I would go back for this dish alone. Desserts were equally scrumptious. To add to all this, our waitress was perfect with service and recommendations on food and wine and got the cocktail orders just right.Special Features:
- Not a good experiencefoodie23Dined on 7/14/2014I came to Circe with 3 others to enjoy the food of Restaurant week. We were seated right away and introduced to our server, Kevin. However the prompt service vanished as soon as it was apparent that we weren't ordering any alcohol and were using the restaurant week menu. From then on Kevin barely came to our table. It took 40 minutes for BREAD to be served after having to ask again for it. It took one hour to get our appetizers and the restaurant wasn't even crowded! As for the food, the pasta dish was inedible with the hand-cut pasta too doughy and a disconcertingly oily sauce. The English Summer pudding was fairly bad - the fruit didn't taste fresh. Overall the service and wait times were terrible and accompanied by equally bad dishes.
- Are there 6 STARS? FABULOUS!CapeCodRhondaDined on 7/12/2014We booked this GEM for dinner and all 4 of us can't stop talking about it. Creative cocktails received rave reviews. Unique appetizers ranging from watermelon gazpacho, or roasted beet salad made the best of local farm fresh produce. You could taste the summer sunshine! The entree's were 10+. PERFECT angus sirloin and scallop dish, served with sautéed spinach and scallion mashed potatoes. The scallops were cooked perfectly and the beef is sliced and fanned out on your plate so that a knife really isn't necessary. A very flavorful and most tender cut. Perfect presentation! Great service! Beautiful transitional interior with respect for the architectural details of the building. Fine dinning at its BEST!Special Features:
- Excellent drinks and food!teriDined on 7/11/2014They have the best cocktail menu in providence. I love the age range of the crowd ( 30-50) The food was excellent. The owner treated us very nicely! Thank you for a wonderful date night:)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Absolutely wonderful!OpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 7/5/2014Great food, extremely attentive service, great wine list, cool atmosphere -what more could you ask for?Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent againAllyVIPDined on 7/4/2014Had another excellent dinner at Circe! The food was top notch as well as everything else. Specialty cocktails that delivered, creative and well executed menu, great atmosphere and service. What more could one ask for? Circe tries hard to please and succeeds. I will definitely go back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exceeded expectationsSimonLechienDined on 7/3/2014Pleasantly surprised, met and exceeded my expectations. Great food, friendly staff, and nice ambience. Definitely a place I plan to visit again.Special Features:
- ???Fodor2Dined on 6/15/2014This was my second time having dinner at Circe; the first time was a Saturday night, the restaurant was very busy, the food was very good and there was valet parking. The reviews stated customers attending PPAC were given theater discounts and were able to keep their cars valet parked at the restaurant; having theater tickets for this past Sunday night we decided to have dinner again at Circe. It was like a different restaurant, no valet parking, although we were allowed to park in the parking lot across the street, the restaurant had very few customers, the food lacked flavor, and we were not offered a theater discount. With so many good restaurants in Providence to choose from, I will not be having dinner at Circe again.
- Perfect!OpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 6/14/2014Service, atmosphere and food were all perfect! Great location if you are going to Waterfire.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 141 reviews are from the Circe Restaurant & Bar reviews archive.
- Anniversary Dinnerbettyfinn007Dined on 5/30/2014This was a perfect place for our anniversary. Free valet, great cocktail list, and a very energetic, attentive and friendly server. (wish I remembered her name). We had lamb meatballs for an appetizer, the bacon wrapped sirloin, and salmon. All were fantastic. I have recommended this place to friends.Special Features:
- Lovely graduation dinnerDougDined on 5/25/2014In spite of the challenge of dealing with several large groups celebrating local college graduations, the team at Circe made our evening memorably pleasant. Our server was very knowledgeable and spent a lot of time explaining menu items and specials. We started with local cheeses paired with a bottle from the very good wine list, and our party ordered a variety of entrees, giving us a good cross section of the menu. The salmon with mango salsa was the best salmon dish I've had in a long time. We did lose our server halfway through the meal, as he was apparently pulled away by a party of 12+ in the back of the restaurant, but that small glitch in service in no way compromised the fine overall experience.Special Features:
- Perfect dinner celebration!JDHW617Dined on 5/25/2014We went to Circe for a special graduation dinner --- and it could not have been more perfect! The staff went out of their way to take care of our large party (including making a couple of special plates for some family members with dietary restrictions) and every dish was absolutely delicious. Everybody raved about their meals (and this is a crowd that frequents restaurants in NY, Boston, etc.) The evening was paced just right. We absolutely loved Circe and will be back--a real find!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great valueLuvProvDingDined on 5/24/2014We were a party of four on a very busy Providence Waterfire night. Our table was ready, service was timely, our waiter was experienced and knowledgeable, and the food was very good as expected. What is truly appreciated at this restaurant is the scale. The noise level is moderate and the tables are nicely spaced. The cost was less than what we expected to pay.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- commencement celebrationJofeDined on 5/24/2014We had a dinner celebrating college graduation. The reserved table for our group was in the front window alcove which was nice for quiet conversation and very comfortable. The noise level in other parts of the restaurant may get to be rather high, given the active bar clientele, but it did not disturb our group. Service was attentive and the food was outstanding, with beautiful presentation.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Beattraffic/Go to theatre/AnytimeFoodLoverDined on 5/21/2014This is the second time dining here and it was as good as the first. My husband and I chose to do small plates for dinner and order in "courses", from the bar menu, to enjoy the flavors - chicken fingers fried in bacon/bacon fat with a chipotle dipping sauce, duck confit eggrolls with a hoisin peanut butter dipping sauce; split the meatloaf; each had the Caesar salad (request all romaine and beets on mine. Everything was prepared, presented and served wonderfully. The first visit was before the theater and had plenty of time to dine and arrive on time. This time it was to wait out rush hour traffic back to Mass. It was a very pleasant way to wait out the traffic. The staff and owner are very welcoming.Special Features:
- Circe=Greek for "Great restaurant"?DojoDined on 5/10/2014This restaurant has it all...inventive dishes perfectly executed with local ingredients, excellent service, cool vibe, and very convenient to other downtown Providence sites, including PPAC and Waterfire. Pricey but well worth the cost. We had tickets to PPAC and received the "pre-theater" discount, courtesy of our server. Standout dishes included the salads with Shartner's Farm beets, mushroom bolognese (vegetarian), lobster risotto, and grilled Bomster scallops. The french fries with the garlic aoli dipping sauce were a hit, too (we wouldn't let our server take away the sauce after the fries were long gone). No time for dessert this visit, but we'll definitely be back. Highly recommended. Interesting fact: "Circe" is pronounced "sur-see".Special Features:
- interesting fresh menuEVLZDined on 5/10/2014The decor of the restaurant was great. It was comfortable and modern. The menu was interesting with many local ingredients. The lobster risotto with avocado ice cream was outstanding. We loved the trout stuffed with crabmeat special as well. It was a wonderful start to a fun evening at the theater. The complimentary valet parking was a nice bonus.Special Features:
- Exquisite!OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 5/10/2014I am so glad we tried Circe! It was within walking distance from the PPAC, which is perfect for before or after a show. Their 3-course Prix Fixe menu offered enough variety to suit all four at our table, and everything was delicious! To highlight a few items: the calamari was light, tender and crispy; the truffle-infused bolognese was packed with rich flavor; the salmon was cooked to perfection, accompanied by the freshest mango salsa. The service was prompt and courteous. We will definitely be returning the next time we are in Providence!Special Features:
- Great any time!42ndAnniversaryDined on 5/9/2014We first had a family dinner last December at Circe before going to PPAC. The food was fabulous, the atmosphere lively with a long crowded bar, they offer valet parking, and after dinner, we walked to PPAC since Circe allows theater goers to leave their cars with the valet! This is a real find for folks with tickets to the Providence Performing Arts Center. We returned to Circe for Mother's Day. Again, the hostess was extremely accomodating, and the food delicious. The only reason I am not giving them five stars is because the table configuration is somewhat limited; however, they do a great job with the decor and the space they have!Special Features:
- Great Restaurantev162Dined on 5/9/2014We had dinner at Circe before a show at PPAC. The Food was wonderful. The wait staff was very attentive, and knowledgeable. I would definately return, and recommend Circe to friendsSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- More a bar than a restaurantGSRehoboDined on 5/4/2014We went after the theater around 9 pm on a Sunday. If you like pounding house music, this is the place for you. We were seated as far from the bar as possible and still couldn't hear each other. First two choices of appetizers were not available. Finally found some things on the menu that they actually had. Very mediocre food. The sashimi small plate was particularly uninspired, slices of raw fish (which were fresh) served with three accompaniments, one of which was just a bowl of capers. I wouldn't recommend this place for dinner, but the bar seems popular.Special Features:
- Excellent foodBuzzGundersenVIPDined on 5/4/2014In a city where the restaurant norm would equal greatness in most of the rest of the country, based on our single experience Circe would stand out as one of the best. The food was creatively conceived and artfully prepared from excellent ingredients. We'll be back.Special Features:
- DisappointedOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 5/3/2014I chose this restaurant as we had theatre tickets and they were located close to the venue. We were promptly seated and our waiter asked if we were going to the theatre, obviously concerned about timing. We had an hour to dine. I ordered Jonnie Walker scotch and was told they were out-a red flag, how can a restaurant be out on a Saturday night. The appetizer was served promptly but dinner was not brought out to us until we questioned the waiter and ultimately had less than 10 minutes to gulp it down and ended up being late for the show. On my way out I tried to grab the manager to discuss the matter but he was already engaged with another unhappy theatre goer.Special Features:

Guess it was only a matter of time ... Lindsay Lohan's getting her own reality show. No, not on TLC, so she can go back-to-back with Honey Boo Boo. Not on E! so she and the Kardashians can hang at upfronts together. But on Oprah's OWN Network. Ugggghhhh, WHY? Then again, with LiLo's life being filled with neverending tabloid fodder, and her apparent inability to get her act together, maybe she and reality TV are a match made in Hollywood Hell!
OWN tells EW.com the La Lohan extravaganza will kick off with an Oprah-LiLo sit-down taped and aired in August -- after the actress finishes her 90-day court-ordered stint in rehab expected to conclude July 31. Then, brace yourself for an eight-episode docu-series that will "follow the actress as she works to rebuild her career and stay healthy" and will air in 2014. Whoo hoo ...?
It bears noting that this is the first unscripted project Lindsay has said yes to, after apparently turning down many over the years, preferring to stick to scripted acting roles. Can't say I blame her actually! It seems like reality TV tends to make celebs -- or NON-celebs (cough MTV's Teen Moms! Most notably Farrah Abraham!) -- go even crazier!
That said, if the whole focus of this series is to document how she's cleaning up her act and getting on track, perhaps it really could be helpful to her personally and professionally. Maybe Oprah's onto something here. And as long as we're facing the "reality" of the situation, let's be honest with ourselves -- we are totally going to be tuning in.
What do you think about LiLo getting her OWN reality series? Will you be watching?

I would love to see Iyanla fix her life.
"That said, if the whole focus of this series is to document how she's cleaning up her act and getting on track, perhaps it really could be helpful to her personally and professionally."
No, this will not help her. The fact is, reality TV is not interesting unless there is drama, so that is what will be played up on her show, as well as any other show. Having the added pressure of a television show on top of her attempt to stay sober is too much pressure for anyone to handle. One of the first rules of staying sober is less stress, do not add new things onto your plate in that first year. No new relationships, don't move away from your support system, don't switch up careers. Stress can equal failure with addiction. This is just proof that people are still using her for money, and that she is fool enough to go for it.
I wish Lindsey all the very very best, we are all human, we all fall, no one is perfect.. People can be cruel, life isn't a fairly tale, even when you're famous .. go Lindsay, it wont be easy.. but you are not alone, people love you and wish you well. Stay away from the haters, they don't hate you they hate themselves... they have plenty of work to do on themselves, keep you chin up, and keep moving forward..
Lindsay was a good little actress years ago. Everyone has their troubles and downfalls in life. Maybe it's good hers happened when she was young and has a chance to rebuild her career again.When you're famous, everything is watched like a hawk and things are printed that aren't even true.For some people, it's hard to deal with. I know it would be for me. Wish her the best.
Hopefully it will help her get her act together.
I won't be watching either. Lindsay is a sad and ill person who does not need cameras while trying to get her life together. This is a tragedy and I don't think I will ever view Oprah the same way again. Cashing in on a trainwreck and trying to make us believe this is a learning experience. Not so much, it is an exploiting experience. This child needs to go away, recover what self she has left and begin her career over with good work that isn't feeding her narcissism. Hopefully, she can get her life back on track, but I won't be watching what promises to be a cringeworthy endeavour.
I also think that Lindsay Lohan should be on an episode of "Fix My Life." I think that could be a great thing for Lohan, and a ratings bump for OWN.

Starting in 2008, MOTHER 4 began as a fun little after-work project started by Chaisu and a friend. After posting the project on Starmen.net, it received a wave of helpers and fans and grew larger than anyone had expected.
Since then, the game has completely changed. There has been revision after revision to the story. The game's engine has moved from RPG Maker to Game Maker and is now being custom made in C++. Over the years the team has undergone many staff changes but, as always, is striving to create the most realistic "Mother 4" possible.
I'm sort of addicted to this game. Just sayin'.

MILWAUKEE (WSAU-Wheeler News) Milwaukee prosecutors are reportedly trying to decide whether an apartment building's maintenance worker acted in self-defense in the deaths of two teens. The victims were identified yesterday as 19-year-old James Bell Junior and 17-year-old Anmarie Miller, both of Milwaukee. WISN TV said prosecutors have cell-phone video from a part of Wednesday afternoon's incident.
The maintenance worker, a 39-year-old man, is in jail where he was booked on two possible homicide charges. A third person with the teens, a 20-year-old man, is being held on a possible battery charge.
Police said the maintenance man got into an argument with three young people in his building's stairwell. It led to a physical altercation in which the worker was reportedly being held and beaten with a baseball bat. Officials said he then pulled out his gun and shot Miller and Bell to death. Police said they were not allowed to disclose whether the maintenance man had a state concealed weapons' permit.

Quick Facts
There are no 2006 Ford Crown Victoria reviews. However, the following might be helpful:
User Reviews
The community thinks...
America's Automotive Icon by The Wild West on 01/26/2014. Trim: 2006 Ford Crown Victoria LX, Owned 7 years.
Pros: HUGE trunk, smooth as silk ride, plenty of space to comfortably fit up to 5 people, handles remarkably well at high speeds considering how big it is, RWD, V8, tough body-on-frame design, bulletproof reliability, cheap to fix. Not to mention the amount of respect it gets you on the road when people move over from the fast lane since they think you are a cop, lol. You can start it up and drive it any time, anywhere without any doubts as long as it is properly maintained. I bought mine from an elderly couple who only used it to go to church every Sunday and buy groceries so it has a lot of life left in it. Did I mention it gets 25 mpg on the open highway with the cruise control set at 70?
Cons: This isn't a huge issue, but it uses a little more gas than average in town.
Overall review: This is one of the last full size American sedans with a V8 and RWD, and chances are they may never be back. So you know you it is a one of a kind. There is a reason this car has been in law enforcement and the taxi service for over a decade, Ford's 4.6 just keep going and going. The only work my car has needed are just oil changes, air filters, and a transmission fluid and filter change. It has yet to give me any trouble. Insurance is cheap and parts are everywhere. I can go on forever about how great this car is, but you'll never know how magnificent it truly is until you get out there and take one for a spin for yourself. Get it while its hot!!

Ancestor Searching Newsletter, Volume 3, # 9
The National Library of Ireland was established by the Dublin Science and Art Museum Act, 1877, which provided that the bulk of the collections in the possession of the Royal Dublin Society, should be vested in the then Department of Science and Art for the benefit of the public and of the Society, and for the purposes of the Act.
Opened in 1890 to house the collection of the Royal Dublin Society, this library contains a vast collection of books, manuscripts, records, photographs, maps and newspapers. If you're lucky enough to go to Ireland and you want to trace your family tree, go to the Heraldic Museum in the Genealogical Office a few doors down from the National Library at Nos. 2 and 3 Kildare Street. The National Library of Ireland's holdings constitute the most comprehensive collection of Irish documentary material in the world and offer an invaluable representation of Ireland's history and heritage. The National Library collections comprise a number of formats including printed material, manuscripts (approximately one million items in its collections spanning nearly a thousand years), visual and digital material.
The library is a reference library and, as such, does not lend and any reading is done in the various reading rooms. It has a large quantity of Irish and Irish-related material which can be consulted without charge; again, this includes books, maps, manuscripts, music, newspapers, periodicals and photographs. Included in their collections is material issued by private as well as government publishers. Copying service is available to get photocopies, photographs, slides, or microfilm of most items in the collections. The Library also has an ongoing program of exhibitions. The National Library of Ireland is a cultural institution under the auspices of the Department of Arts, Sport and Tourism. Its mission is to collect, preserve and make available books, manuscripts and illustrative material of Irish interest.
Users of the Library have a wide variety of interests. They can include those engaged in long-term research with a view to publishing a book or articles and those with a specific once-time need. The Library's Genealogy Service is designed to assist all of those who wish to research their family history in Ireland. For first time researchers the Genealogy Service is an ideal starting point, allowing them the opportunity to discuss their research with experienced genealogists and Library staff, ready access to important finding aids and useful information panels. More experienced family historians are also welcome to avail themselves of the Service as from time to time they may need assistance with on-going research. The Library does not offer a research service. It is possible to commission research and a list of researchers - private individuals and organizations - who have indicated a willingness to carry out family history research on a professional, fee-paying basis, and can be found on the National Library of Ireland's website Family History Research.
Roman Catholic Parish registers of most parishes up to 1880 are held on microfilm. A Parish Registers list is available as a PDF. Their collections also include Estate Records, Gaelic Manuscripts, and a guide to family history in the library. Excellent Catalogues of Photographs, and Prints and Drawings are available too, many items viewable online.
The Library's photographic collection is housed in the National Photographic Archive in Temple Bar, Dublin 2. Here, approximately 300,000 photographs are kept, both historical and contemporary, the vast majority of which were taken in Ireland. While most of the collections of historical, there are some contemporary collections. Subject matter ranges from topographical views to studio portraits and from political events to early tourist photographs.
The National Library has the largest newspaper collection in Ireland. The earliest newspaper in the National Library newspaper collection dates from 1660. Irish titles are the primary focus of the collection. The policy is to collect all newspapers published in Ireland and Northern Ireland, including free newspapers.
Of special interest to genealogists is the map collection. The Early Manuscript map group which includes a 12th-century map of Europe found in "Topographia Hiberniae" (the topography of Ireland); Estate and other 18th-century maps and, of course, Ordnance Survey Maps. These range from the 16th century to the 20th century. As a result of a project to place the maps in a new viewing format, the collection of Ordnance Survey maps are currently being withdrawn from public circulation.
The Chief Herald of Ireland (the State authority on heraldic matters) and National Photographic Archive are attached to the library. The library holds exhibitions and maintains an archive of Irish newspapers. It is also ISSN National Centre for Ireland.
A Readers Ticket is necessary to access all collections in the Library, with the exception of the Newspaper Section, which offers a one-day pass. Application for a Readers Ticket can be made at the Ticket Office, located in the main library. Identification and two passport-sized photographs are required. To order copies of library material, send details of the particular piece, along with contact details, to copy-orders [at] nli [dot] ie. An invoice will be sent within 10 working days. On receipt of payment, the chosen material(s) will be copied.

Fact: For anyone just beginning their research in Ireland, the National Library's downloadable file Family History - Getting Started online brochure is an excellent starting point for available information on Ireland research.
Tip: Digital images of some of the collection's Gaelic manuscripts can be accessed online on the ISOS (Irish Script on Screen) site.

If the Bengals linebackers room at Paul Brown Stadium is the home of the unwanted, the unloved and the undrafted, then James Harrison is the Ugly Duckling who grew into the Swan that has gone to five Pro Bowls and won an NFL Defensive Player of the Year award, all the while becoming "The Baddest Man In Football."
Thursday night's 34-10 win in the preseason opener against the Falcons seemed to indicate the Bengals have more than 53 players.
There's a shot that all but two of the Bengals Opening Day linebackers are going to be undrafted.

This USA made Craftsman 3/8 in. Drive Full Polish Stubby Flex Head Quick Release Teardrop Ratchet is a must have for everyone who uses ratchets. I bought this more on inpulse but now find that I use it more then I use any other ratchet I have. Another great thing about having and loveing thisCraftsman rachet is that with Craftsman Forever warranty I will have it forever! Great for small spaces. Ihave no Cons on this ratchet and believe you wont either.
Grinder marks above lever and polished over nicks and dings. "Made in Taiwan" printed on the back of plastic holder. Shame on you Sears. American citizens can't manufacture ALL Craftsman tools? Buyer beware!

The 3/8 in. Drive Full Polish Stubby Flex Head Quick Release Teardrop Ratchet is a great tool for getting into those stubborn tights places. The action is very smooth and the ratchet has a great polished look. A great price and well worth the money.

I was impressed by the nice refined finish and smooth ratcheting mechanism. Craftsman quality really has gone down hill but this one seems pretty good. The only thing I don't like is the shape of the handle; it doesn't seem to fit my hand very good, but at least the handle isn't bulky.

so far its been smooth sailing. its perfect for ratcheting things fast. I always grease up my ratchets so that they can last me longer. the only con to my many pros is that craftsman didnt make a stubby ratchet that ISNT a flex head. if it was non Flex it would have been better.. Also, i do have a bit of a problem with ratchet # 44833 but i am waiting for the chance to give my review on that.

This is a good economical ratchet; very pleased.

I use this in tight places, mainly on small nuts and bolts from 10mm to 14mm, it's the right size. The stubby is easy to turn and use. For less than $25, it's a quality ratchet with lifetime warranty.

Oakland CA Obama Protest
Post with 1 note
This Monday, July 23 in Oakland, Barack Obama will speak to a big campaign rally at the Fox Theater raising funds for his candidacy and his program. As he speaks inside the Fox, anti-war protesters will be outside, saying NO to these wars and occupations, NO to the drones, torture, and kill lists — NO MATTER WHO THE PRESIDENT MAY BE!
Join World Can't Wait – Afghans for Peace – Iraq Veterans Against the War – Courage to Resist – Code Pink – Bradley Manning Support Network – and March Forward, to assemble, rally, speak out and march against America's illegitimate, immoral, horrendous wars and occupations and the whole package of crimes that are part of them.
OBAMA's FUNDRAISING EVENT: Fox Theater, Telegraph btwn 18th/19th Streets, Oakland. Obama to speak in person. Program time approximately 6 PM-9 PM.
Doors open 4:30 to ticketed guests ($100-$1000's each).
PEOPLE'S ANTIWAR PROTEST: Bring your signs, your friends, your voice.
Assemble starting at 3:00 PM at Oscar Grant Plaza (14th & Broadway, Oakland).
March from Oscar Grant Plaza to the Fox Theater
[If you arrive after 3 PM, come as soon as you can, protest will be in the area 3-9 PM]
OUR MESSAGE: War is not an abstraction and lives hang in the balance. These wars mean the escalating, horrendous use of drone warfare as America's "clean" weapon of choice. The torture known from Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo is reaching new heights at Bagram today (with Guantanamo still open). Massacres of civilians in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen are daily routine and do not even usually make the news. Meanwhile, at the White House every Tuesday Obama signs off on a new assassination target list. We demand an end to all this, and we also demand that accused army whistler-blower Bradley Manning be freed, and Hands Off Wikileaks!
Some say: Don't protest Obama now, you'll only aid the lunatic Republicans. We should throw in with the "lesser of two evils" and go from there …
Some say: Obama's foreign policy and these wars are a negative, but on the positive side he'll do better for Americans with the economy and health care, so don't undermine him now …
World Can't Wait says: WE INTERRUPT THIS PROGRAM! Consider yourself called to action! You're invited to join us, to act in conscience, to stand with the people assaulted by your government.
We Can't Be Silent: Ten Years of the War on Terror Needs to Stop
Quote with 7 notes
I ask this sincerely: what kind of country targets rescuers, funeral attendees, and people gathered to mourn? If a Hollywood film featured a villainous King ordering lethal attacks on rescuers, funerals and mourners — those medically attending to or grieving his initial victims — any decent audience member would, by design, seethe with contempt for such an inhumane tyrant. But this is the standard policy and practice under President Obama and it continues through today. Recall the outrage that was sparked when WikiLeaks released its Collateral Murder video showing a U.S. Apache helicopter during the Bush era firing on unarmed rescuers, who had arrived to retrieve the initial victims who had been shot and were laying wounded on the ground. That tactic continues under President Obama, although it is now expanded to include the targeting of grieving rituals.

The Inside Line: Kanaan basking in Indy 500 glory
By Chris Symeon, Motorsports Editor
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Tony Kanaan's first Indianapolis 500 victory in his 12th attempt came with a couple good luck charms.
Kanaan finally put to rest years of frustration at Indianapolis Motor Speedway by winning what was perhaps the greatest IndyCar Series race of all time. Sunday's Indy 500 featured an astonishing record 68 lead changes among 14 drivers and moved at very fast pace of 187.433 mph, a record as well.
After 2 hours, 40 minutes and 3 seconds from when the green flag waved to start the 97th running of this prestigious race, Kanaan crossed the finish line first, with the checkered and yellow flags waving at the same time.
The 38-year-old Brazilian pulled ahead of Ryan Hunter-Reay, the reigning IndyCar champion, for the lead right after a restart with just three laps to go. Seconds later, Dario Franchitti, who won the Indy 500 for the third time last year, crashed into the wall in turn 1, which would end the race under caution.
As he swigged from the traditional Indy 500-winning bottle of milk and was draped with a floral wreath, Kanaan said in the winner's circle that he got a "little bit of luck today."
His luck actually came well before the start of the race.
Kanaan had two medals in his possession that he used for good fortune.
Hours before the race began, Kanaan received Alex Zanardi's para-cycling gold medal from the 2012 London Paralympic Games. Zanardi, a former Formula One and CART/Champ Car Series competitor, lost both of his legs in a horrifying crash that nearly ended his life during the 2001 CART race in Germany. Zanardi, along with his fellow Italian compatriot, Max Papis, a notable race car driver as well, attended the Indy 500.
"Right before the race, (Zanardi) gave it to (KV Racing Technology co-owner) Jimmy (Vasser), and Jimmy brought it to the bus," Kanaan recalled. "I was laying in bed. It was an hour before. Jim said, 'Zanardi asked you to rub it.' I actually cuddled with the thing."
Kanaan had his first medal come to him last week when he received a package with a necklace inside it from a long-time friend.
"Nine years ago, I went to make a visit in a hospital here in Indy," he said. "When I walked in, there was this girl (Andrea Braun of Decatur, Ind.). She was 14 years old. She just had a stroke. She was in a coma. She was going to get a surgery the next morning.
"I had this thing that my mom gave me. It was kind of a necklace to protect me, not to bring me luck, because you know the way moms are. She tells me to race slow, which is kind of stupid. So I took it out, and I said to her mother that I don't know if you believe in these things, but I had this for a while. It always protects me. My mother gave it to me. I want to give it to you. She was like a life risk.
"I gave it to her. She survived. She is doing really well. We kept in touch in the past years. This year, she showed up, gave me a letter with an envelope. I opened the letter. Here it was. She said that she had enough of luck in her life. She got married, and she wanted to give it back to me to bring me luck. So here it is. I think I'll retire that thing now."
In his previous 11 Indy 500 starts, Kanaan had always come up short of winning the race. He had led a total of 221 laps prior to this year's Indy 500, which was a record for most career laps led by a non-winner of this event. Kanaan finished second in 2004, the same year he captured his first IndyCar championship, and placed third in 2003 and 2012. He started on the pole for the 2005 race, but ended up finishing eighth in it.
"I never had a doubt I could win this thing," Kanaan said. "I talked about it many times that I could do it or not, but this place is still going to be special. It worked (Sunday)."
Kanaan's maiden victory in the Indy 500 might have been forever and a day, but it was a hugely popular one. His win might have been as popular with the drivers, teams and race fans around the world as the one Dale Earnhardt experienced when he won his first Daytona 500 -- NASCAR's biggest race of the season -- in 1998. It took Earnhardt 20 attempts to do it.
"I was already in America when (Earnhardt) did that," Kanaan said. "I thought it was so cool. When I came down pit lane, it was not the same, but it was close. I saw a lot of teams and people that thought I really deserved to win. It was awesome."
It was indeed an emotional day for Zanardi to see his good friend and former CART competitor, Kanaan, cross the finish line as the first driver behind the pace car.
"It's fantastic," Zanardi said. "It's a dream come true to see Tony win, to see Jimmy Vasser win, my dear friend. We couldn't believe it. I'm so happy."
Vasser and Zanardi were teammates at Chip Ganassi Racing in CART during the mid-1990s. Kanaan competed against them during the 1998 season when he drove for the Tasman Motorsports Group.
"Alex Zanardi gave us some luck (Sunday)," Vasser said. "He gave us his gold medal from London and told us, 'Rub this all over the car.' Tony took the medal to his motor home with him for an hour."
Ultimately, Kanaan received the biggest medal of them all, the Borg-Warner Trophy, for winning the Indy 500. He'll be the 100th face etched on one of the most famous awards in all of motorsports.
"I'm glad I'm on the other side, so they can put my big nose on that trophy," he jokingly said.
Perhaps Kanaan's biggest reward is that he can finally now be called an Indianapolis 500 champion.

Initially said on backorder...but arrived same day as the rest of my order! Only worn once thus far...but seem to be GREAT boots for the money!
Good fit/good looks and true to size (in my case; size 12). Fairly comfortable (right out of the box); perhaps not as comfortable as my previous purchase of Nevados, but very close.
These are the most comfortable casual shoes I have purchased in a long while. The waterproof claim was inadvertently tested this week when I slipped into a moving creek bed. My foot stayed dry. They are going to get rough treatment, so I'll see how long they hold up.
The fit is perfect and comfortable. I have another pair coming. I looked them over for loose strings and poor workmanship. They were so good I ordered another pair.
Back ordered. It said they were un stock when I ordered I would not have order them with a 3 week wait time.

Ski hire MERIBEL
Méribel, the village in the heart of the Three Valleys, has some of the best skiing in France. Why? Because it's pretty (its catchphrase is 'Very Belle') and it offers some great quality skiing alongside a legendarily vibrant nightlife. There's plenty to explore on the mountain itself (accessing the enormous Three Valleys lift system) and an equally wide array of aprčs-ski options, Méribel has standout reputation for excellence, has shunned modern architecture in place of traditional chalet looks, and in the face of exploration by us Brits, has retained much of its classic French charm. Ski Rental in Méribel couldn't be easier. Intersport has the following ski hire shops in and around the resort:
