SUMMIT - For 28 years, Vanessa Weiss and Franco Villa have been building their dream home, a constant work-in-progress located at the tip of Santa Cruz County.
The two-story house, surrounded by flagstone terraces with Italian balusters, looks out over a postcard expanse of blue-green ridges, beginning with Castle Rock State Park, that fade in the distance as they descend to the sea.
It is an idyllic setting, but for one thing: a loud, messy and gun-happy neighbor that many local residents want gone.
"We've all been irritated by it over the years. And it has gotten worse and worse and worse," Weiss said.
Weiss and Villa live near the Los Altos Rod and Gun Club, located over the Summit from its namesake city but nestled since 1955 at a pretty apex of the Santa Cruz Mountains. It offers a series of shooting ranges where, for $15 a pop, you can squeeze off a few rounds of whatever gun you bring - just about anything legal in the state of California.
And now the club is looking to expand, proposing a 3,200-square-foot clubhouse that seems to be turning up the heat on a simmering truce between the mountain residents, the gun club and Castle Rock visitors. The clubhouse is also raising an important question: if the club was there long before its neighbors, does it have any obligation to accommodate them?
"It does. It's change and it's progress. As cities build up, the rules change for different areas," Weiss said, adding that the caliber and frequency of the gunfire at the club has changed, too. "If they were firing as much as they were in 1955, we probably would not be as upset."
Neighbor Lois Manning believes the shooting has picked up as well.
"At first, it sounded like someone hammering on wood," she wrote in a letter to the county protesting the project. "Now it sounds like a battlefield."
With the matter set to go back before county supervisors Feb. 14, neighbors want the club to explore sound mitigation measures such as sound baffles. They are also raising questions about the environmental impact of the club, and how the shooting affects visitors to Castle Rock.
Club leadership did not respond to requests for an interview. But during a recent hearing, they addressed some of the neighbors' concerns, saying they believed the recent run of good weather has fueled perceptions that club use is up. If the sun's out, the club gets more shooters, they said.
And the club has begun to address a problem that concerns many: For nearly six decades, shot and bullets have accumulated on the property without being removed, an untested source of potential environmental contamination that sits not just above a state park, but atop the San Lorenzo Valley watershed.
"My whole thing is, please don't be polluting in the neighborhood in an unfettered manner the way that you have for all of these years," said Villa, a retired Stanford nuclear scientist who calculates that as much as 15 tons of lead are on the property.
Neighbors and hikers also find spent "wads," the residue from two shotgun ranges that overlook the valley, along trails within Castle Rock.
Steve Caserza, who heads the club, said in a meeting recently the club has hired someone to advise it on best practices, and will begin to clean up the lead. Since the issue came up, county staff have decided to test the property's soil and water.
The club has its supporters. Boy Scout troop leaders from Ben Lomond, Boulder Creek, Union City and Los Gatos - who are offered free entry to the club - all endorsed the clubhouse project as a way to teach scouts about firearm safety. Mary Hazel, the region's supervising State Parks peace officer, wrote a letter saying her officers use the range for target practice and said the club is "an outstanding neighbor."
Even some neighbors think others in the neighborhood are protesting too much.
"I find it difficult to sympathize with those who knowingly make their home next to an existing airport, refinery or in this case a gun range, and then complain that the noise created on these properties is later found to be objectionable," said Charles Schoppe, who lives in Indian Rock Ranch, a development north of the club.
Some say the club has been a problem with visitors to Castle Rock, which since opening in 1968 has drawn visitors - and thus residents - to a ridge that was about as isolated as it gets when the club opened in 1955.
"The noise is certainly the most troublesome," said Miles Standish, an ex-Castle Rock park ranger. "It's incompatible with the park's purpose."
Standish said there had only been one serious effort to move the gun club elsewhere, which occurred prior to his arrival there in 1980. The state made an offer on the property, he said, but could not find a new home for the club.
A county board has approved the clubhouse project, but Supervisor Mark Stone asked that it be heard by the full Board of Supervisors, a move that saved neighbors thousands in appeal costs. He said he hopes neighbors and the club work out their differences.
"The permit for the clubhouse is an opportunity for the neighbors to talk to the club about issues that have been brewing for some time," Stone said.
The clubhouse is meant to accommodate events and will include a small kitchen. Club operators say it won't increase club use, something the neighbors dispute.
Since the club was built long before the county issued building permits, any significant change in use can lead the county to force the club to comply with current codes, including noise laws. Whether the clubhouse constitutes a major change is up to the board, perhaps giving neighbors the leverage they need to force the club to the negotiating table.
But for the most part, neighbors are hoping for concessions. Hari Manoharan, a Stanford physics professor, moved to the area a decade ago partly for the isolation. At night, when the club is closed, it is still and quiet, and the stars spread out above his home brilliantly.
Manoharan said he understands people need a place to shoot. But he added there are relatively inexpensive ways to muffle the sounds - including some recommended by the National Rifle Association - which have gotten loud enough to force people inside.
"It basically just makes it even hard to talk, to carry on a conversation outside," Manoharan said.
This YouTube video taken at the Los Altos Rod and Gun Club shows one of the skeet shooting ranges. Homes are visible on the far ridge.
This YouTube video taken at taken at the Los Altos Rod and Gun Club shows a customer rapid-firing a German GSG-5. Neighbors say faster and higher-powered guns have contributed to a war zone-like atmosphere above Castle Rock State Park.

A transgendered American widely known for becoming the world's first 'pregnant man' is celebrating the arrival of his third child, RadarOnline reported Monday.
Thomas Beatie was born a female but underwent a sexual reassignment procedure in order to become a man.
He became pregnant by artificial insemination and gained worldwide attention in 2007 after the first pictures of his swollen stomach went public.
Beatie and his wife Nancy welcomed their first child, Susan, in July 2008. Beatie then gave birth to a boy, Austin, in June 2009.
The newest addition to the family arrived Sunday night. The baby boy has light brown hair, blue eyes and is "big and healthy," a source told the entertainment website.
Beatie gave birth naturally to all three children at St. Charles Medical Center in Bend, Ore.

Despite the somewhat strained setup, Banshee is a kick: ultraviolent, over-the-top, and wickedly fun. [11 Jan 2013, p.80]
It's the characters of Banshee and their labyrinth of relationships that make the show an engrossing, entertaining portrait of a fictional small town.
It's all much better than it sounds, and more importantly, like "Strike Back," is written better than you'd expect.
Banshee has has elements of "Justified," "Big Love," Ball's "True Blood" and, of course, the film "Witness." What it doesn't have, at least in the first two episodes, is anything new to say, about small towns, power, corruption, fear, crime or love.
Banshee's not a terrible show. At times it can be entertaining. But at best it's terribly, entertainingly superfluous.
Banshee has the audacity to behave as though its bloody violence, implausible set-up and studied ugliness is somehow vanguard television. In fact, it's just more of the same.

Mar 31, 2013I just watched all the season 1 shows this weekend with my wife during the Comcast Watchathon where they made all Cinemax series available for free. I have to say we were glued to all ten episodes and I had to pry her away for Easter dinner. Very intense they try hard to shock you and make you feel for the characters. The characters are not sympathetic. They are hard antiheroes but you do care about them and feel their pain. The moral dilemmas created are complex. You start to hate a character and then he turns around and does something to save people even though it's in his best interests. There are tons of plot twists for those who like the unexpected. The violence and sexuality are not for the faint hearted though. Can't wait for the next season!… Expand
Nov 2, 2013I just recommended this show to a couple of friends last night, and showed them the fight between Hood and Damien Sanchez. Needless to say they were both interested after seeing that. I really need to get the bluray's of season one and help support this great series, as I have done for Strike Back...… Expand
Mar 1, 2013This show is easily the best shock in three years. The episode that just premiered gives the famous Game of Thrones episode, "The Battle of Black Water," a run for its money. Ulrich Thomsen portrays Kai Proctor in what is some of the best acting I have seen in recent memory. I have never seen so many amazing plot twists before and look forward to watching the rest of this season and season 2. I suggest anyone that likes bloody action scenes to watch every episode immediately.… Expand
Mar 20, 2013The show is a bit excessive on the violence but otherwise good fun and interesting to watch. There is some great character development in places in the show and Antony Starr is fantastic as the ex-con turned sheriff.… Expand
Mar 11, 2013Cinemax and HBO have another winner on there hands. Full of twists and turns Banshee manages to engage the viewer through a mix of grim spectacle and outright badassery. Every episode is layered with style that oozes with dramatic meat to keep the audience magnetized to the screen and just when you're properly engaged. Some get's their arm broken or their brains splattered across the walls or streets. This all said one must remember that this is the cinemax arm of HBO, so while the acting is pretty good all around, it is by no means on the level of something like The Wire or Six Feet Under. But with certain tweaks, it could very well be. In fact it puts its sister show, Strikeback, to shame by saying, an action show can have good acting and damn good dialogue. The only other issue with the show, is when they try to do big bad chase sequences. The choreography and direction of them is great, but they don't have the budget to pull them off effectively. It becomes dissengaging when you wind up concentrating on its fakery rather than execution. Otherwise, a solid show, that will have you racing with excitment.… Expand
Feb 24, 2013(Spoilers below) I have to say when I first heard of this show I thought it was going to be typical mindless junk, but I was pleasantly surprised. The characters are interesting and relatively complex, the action is great, plenty of laughs and almost every episode has "edge of your seat" moments. The only reason I would not give this show 9 or 10/10 is because of how ridiculous the plot is. Pretty much every episode has absolutely ridiculous things happening first, the way Hood becomes Sheriff; then the ability of the dragqueen character to do whatever he wants with his laptop, including opening blast doors in a museum; Hood's asinine interpretation of laws, like punching criminals in front of other cops and letting prisoners go; Hood deciding to and succeeding in beating up a biker gang by himself, etc. If you can get over how ridiculous the story is a lot of the time you will definietely enjoy yourself.… Expand
Dec 5, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. None of the characters are believable. The town deputies would have snatched his badge the first time he did the outrageous illegal stunts he pulled, especially the one passed over for sheriff. There's no reason for them to fear him, he holds no weight, he's an outsider. And an ex-con would show more sense than his brazen ways.
Many scenes scream "filler" and the overall acting is wooden at best. Gratuitous, stereotyped writing, especially the boxed in minority, LGBT and/or female characters. You knew the outcome of episode 3 from the moment the primary figures were introduced.… Expand

Maternity Wardrobe Style
One of the best pieces of advice we got while pregnant was that adding a few, simple maternity pieces to our wardrobe would do wonders for our self-esteem. What does self-esteem have to do with pregnancy, you may wonder? Well, between the hormone changes and your growing body, everything! We all know that when you look good on the outside, you tend to feel good on the inside.
For some women, celebrating their new size and shape is simply license to do some serious damage at the mall. But for the more practical and budget-conscious types, creating a maternity wardrobe can seem daunting and dare we say, frivolous. We say there's a middle ground that's easy to access for all types of pregnant mamas, and that will help you maintain your fashionista cred.
The Basics
Good news leggings lovers! Leggings are a maternity wardrobe staple. They generally have a stretchable, and therefore more comfortable waist, which is what you want as your belly grows. While they may seem ultra casual, when paired with dressier tops or footwear, a more polished look can easily be created. Same goes for maternity jeans which, in terms of casual basics, are a must-have item. Maternity jeans are a fabulous addition to your wardrobe and can help you feel fashion forward and hip. V-neck tees accentuate your bust line and, like leggings, can easily be dressed up with a cardigan or necklace. We're also huge fans of wrap dresses that can be worn casual or dressy and flatter most body types.
Keep in mind that while you might be inclined to cover up your new shape with baggy, loose clothes, wearing bigger isn't necessarily better. Form-fitted clothing actually enhances your curves in a good way, creating a much sleeker silhouette. When purchasing maternity clothes, you'll be buying the same size as when you're not pregnant. So if you usually wear a size medium, you'll continue to buy medium with your new maternity wear.
The Working Woman
When it comes to the working mom-to-be, it's all about mix and match. Thankfully, you really don't need that much to round out your closet. A few tailored maternity skirts or pants made of stretch material can last your entire pregnancy. Paired with some nice blouses and one good jacket, you'll be surprised how many looks you'll be able to create for the five-day workweek. Remember too, that one solid color on the top and bottom will create a longer, leaner look. Pair black leggings with a black maternity blazer, add a colorful necklace and poof, you're comfortable and chic at work. Which brings us to an important fashion tip: don't underestimate the power of a fabulous accessory! Pregnant or not, wearing bangled bracelets, sparkly earrings, or even a hip belt—yes, belt!—can do wonders for your look and also help you feel beautiful.
The Splurge
Inevitably, during the course of your pregnancy, there will be some big event you'll need to attend. Could be a wedding, a baby shower (yours or someone else's), or an important work function. While this doesn't necessarily mean rushing out and spending big bucks on one item, there is something to be said about having that one go-to dress … or accessory … or shoe that is special, unique, and just for your pregnancy. It may be something you only put on a few times, but it could be a lasting, meaningful reminder of your pregnancy long after Baby is born.

Welcome to the Bucks Sonny Weems
Category: The Off Season
Sonny Weems officially is in the conversation for coolest name by a Bucks player. With Sonny Weems and Jodie Meeks the Bucks have two players with names straight out of some 70s sitcom.
The Bucks acquired Weems along with Walter Sharpe for Malik Allen and his expiring contract. Here are some observations on Weems summer league play from Roundball Mining Company, the Denver Nuggets TrueHoop blog:
Sonny Weems – Based on the stats it looks like Weems is playing horribly, but he has shown flashes of very goodness. He is doing a great job of rebounding, averaging eight defensive rebounds a game, and pushing the ball back up the floor. In fact, he is doing a little too good of a job as he has pushed the bounds of being out of control. The result has been 4.5 turnovers a game. His athleticism and speed is off the charts and he is absolutely capable of getting his own shot. He has the ability to create space whether it is through contact or his footwork. So far his shot has not been falling, however, it is clear that the Nuggets want to see if he can carry the scoring load. If he proves he can it will make it easier for George Karl to start J.R. Smith knowing he has Weems ability to score available off the bench. Weems really reminds me a lot of a young(er) J.R. He is the best athlete on the floor and it is clear he can make exceptional plays. He does not have the passing ability of J.R., especially on the pick and roll, but he can use his talents to get his teammates easy shots. He also reminds me of J.R. on the defensive end. When he focuses on defense he shows an ability to be disruptive he just lacks consistency.
Not only does Weems sound like a potential rotation player for this year's Bucks, but it sounds like yet another guy who can play in an uptempo system. Are we seeing a pattern here? This move could be a bad sign for the Charlie Bell's and Bruce Bowen's. We all know Bowen is going to be gone by August 1, but Bell's name hasn't come up much in rumors. It may begin to circulate a little more now. Could the Heat rekindle the interest they had a few years ago? Not likely, but I'd look for the Bucks to shop Bell around the rest of the summer. Especially if the Bucks end up matching an offer for Sessions.
Ah, Ramon Sessions. How does this deal impact him? Well, probably not a lot. Initially I thought this deal may have been designed to free up space to lock up Sessions without having to buy out Kurt Thomas, but that doesn't appear to be the case. Taking on Walter Sharpe's guaranteed contract does not give Milwaukee any additional cap room. And that's all the Bucks are going to get out of Sharpe. Word is that he's got a torn ACL and won't be playing basketball any time soon.
If the Bucks made this move to cut Sonny Weems they'll be saving around 330k, as his contract is only partially guaranteed until August 15th, when it becomes fully guaranteed. More likely, they'll attempt to shop Bell now and garner savings on his deal if they're really serious about having money to match a Sessions offer sheet and stay under the luxury tax AND be flexible for other deals. The Knicks seem to be moving ever closer to offering their mid-level deal to Sessions, considering they have little of value to offer in a sign and trade deal.
Hold on tight, it should be an interesting week for Bucks fans.
UPDATE: If this trade seems like it shouldn't have happened, with regard to the CBA and players who were just traded being traded again with another player there is a reason why this one was okay. We go to Roundball Mining Company again:
In conclusion, for those of you who love reading the Collective Bargaining Agreement you will wonder how Sharpe can be traded with Weems so soon after the Nuggets acquired him. The rule is a player cannot be traded with another player for two months after he is initially acquired via trade or signed off of waivers. The Nuggets and Bucks can get around this by using trade exceptions. Milwaukee apparently has a trade exception of $1.853 million and we all know about the Nuggets trade exceptions. Denver c an easily fit Allen in what remains of the Atkins exception and in return will receive two trade exceptions back from Milwaukee for $736,420, which will both be practically useless.

It's like basketball, but with Bucks instead of basket. I know ... I'm sorry. He might come off as a bit negative, but I'm really not so bad. He just wants the Bucks to succeed, so he points out areas where they are coming up short. Someone has got to do it and he's ornery and opinionated enough to take on that task.

with these fast and productive players all of these so old players need to go so this franchise can achieve something this year. if youre serious about moving forward hand the ball over to sessions and jenkins and let them do what they do best. which is run run run unitl you get a quality center in the fold stop half court sets til bogut can prove he is not a tender soft wannabe center. ive seen him back off of third string wannabes and that shouldnt be so its time to run and gun to the bucks best ability isnt the fast dutchman still sitting on the bench from ucla. lets get with it and start running plays for him. orlando ran plays for their seven foot center which cant even hit a jumper if his life depended on it. i want to be a fan but work with what you have a abundance of

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A condemned child killer has testified that a prison doctor couldn't find veins in his arms when doing a check-up ahead of his scheduled execution.
Ronald Phillips says the doctor from the prison that houses Ohio's death chamber said after the assessment he could only find a vein on Phillips' right hand.
Phillips testified by video during a federal court hearing Friday that the doctor checked his arms several times during the Oct. 18 procedure.
The Department of Rehabilitation and Correction requires such checks a few weeks before an execution.
Phillips testified for more than an hour as part of a lawsuit his attorneys filed. They are trying to stop his execution while they challenge changes to the state's execution policy and the adoption of new lethal injection drugs.

In accordance with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) mandate, on January 4, 2010, the PSC Division of Payment Management (DPM) incorporated the Federal Financial Report (FFR) into the Payment Management System (PMS) and discontinued its use of the Electronic PSC-272. As a result, beginning with the quarter ending December 31, 2009 and beyond, grantees must submit Federal Cash Transaction Reports using PMS FFR instead of the PSC-272. The new PMS FFR system is similar to its predecessor except that grantees must use the new FFR form and file their reports within 30 days of the quarter's end instead of 45 days.
Throughout November and December 2009, DPM notified the grantees in e-mails, web-based training sessions and postings on its PMS website of the PMS FFR implementation. It is important to reiterate, however, that grantee staff members will only be able to prepare and/or certify the FFR reports if they have access to PMS.Under the prior Electronic PSC-272 system, such access was not required. Consequently, it may be helpful to remind your grantee community (as DPM will) that if they have staff that prepare or certify financial reports but do not have PMS user privileges, that they should request such privileges by completing the PMS user form at http://www.dpm.psc.gov/grant_recipient/guides_forms/ffr_user_form.aspx Completed forms should be faxed to DPM as soon as possible.
The following link, http://www.dpm.psc.gov/grant_recipient/ffr_information.aspx, provides access to general information about the PMS FFR system and answers to frequently answered questions. It also provides access to two PMS FFR software reference documents: (1) Quick Reference Guide for Completing the Federal Financial Report; and (2) Recipient Instructions for Completing the Federal Financial Report in the Payment Management System.
DPM has also augmented its PMS help desk staff to address the expected increased volume of questions from grantees and agency PMS users. The help desk can be reached on 877-614-5533 or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this memo or the FFR, please do not hesitate to call one of DPM's managers: For programmatic questions please call or e-mail Kassandra Miles. Kassandra can be reached at 301-443-1558 or (firstname.lastname@example.com). For PMS systems-related questions, please call or e-mail Steve Campbell. Steve can be reached at 301-443-9210 or (email@example.com).

Our bodies, which create a tremendous amount of internal heat, are normally cooled through sweating and radiating heat through our skin. Under certain circumstances, such as unusually high temperatures, high humidity, or vigorous exercise in hot weather, this natural cooling system may begin to fail, allowing internal heat to build up to dangerous levels. The result may be heat illness, which can result in heat cramps, heat exhaustion, or heatstroke.
Heat cramps are brief, severe cramps in the muscles of the legs, arms, or abdomen that may occur during or after vigorous exercise in extreme heat. The sweating that occurs with vigorous exercise causes the body to lose salts and fluids. And the low level of salts causes the muscles to cramp.
Kids are particularly susceptible to heat cramps when they haven't been drinking enough fluids. Although painful, heat cramps aren't serious.
Most heat cramps don't require special treatment. A cool place, rest, and fluids should ease a child's discomfort. Massaging cramped muscles may also help.
Heat exhaustion is a more severe heat illness that can occur when someone in a hot climate or environment hasn't been drinking enough fluids. Symptoms may include:
If left untreated, heat exhaustion may escalate into heatstroke, which can be fatal.
The most severe form of heat illness, heatstroke is a life-threatening medical emergency. The body loses its ability to regulate its own temperature. Body temperature can soar to 106º F (41.1º C) or even higher, leading to brain damage or even death if it isn't quickly treated. Prompt medical treatment is required to bring the body temperature under control.
Factors that increase the risk for heatstroke include overdressing and extreme physical exertion in hot weather with inadequate fluid intake.
Heatstroke also can happen when a child is left in, or becomes accidentally trapped in, a car on a hot day. When the outside temperature is 93º F (33.9º C), the temperature inside a car can reach 125º F (51.7º C) in just 20 minutes, quickly raising body temperature to dangerous levels.
Call for emergency medical help if your child has been outside in the sun exercising for a long time and shows one or more of these symptoms of heatstroke:
While waiting for help:

Charter May Sell Internet Video Services Out-of-Footprint
Charter Communications is considering taking TV over-the-top, a la Netflix, to a national audience.
The operator announced the launch of an Internet TV app to let customers stream more than 100 live channels inside their homes, and at some point it may market broadband video services across the U.S., CEO Tom Rutledge said.
Eventually, Rutledge said, Charter "may sell subscriptions everywhere" -- that is, offer IP-based video services outside its footprint -- but added that today the company is focused on serving customers within its existing service areas.
To deliver the new Charter TV app service, the operator built an IP-based video delivery system that can technically deliver TV to any endpoint. "Essentially it's the creation of a singular, unicast network that allows you to stream to any kind of devices, anyplace, any time," Rutledge said on the operator's third quarter earnings call Tuesday.
Charter also is testing a "cloud" user interface for new and existing set-tops, to provide a consistent user experience for customers, Rutledge said. "Our video product has been challenged," he said. "Part of our strategy over the last year and a half has been to improve our video product and make it better... and it is."

The Charter TV app is available initially for Apple iOS devices, with an Android version on deck. In addition to live TV, the app lets subscribers browse on-demand titles and TV listings, schedule their DVRs or use a mobile device as a remote control for their set-top.
For the quarter ended Sept. 30, Charter dropped a net 27,000 video subscribers, a major improvement over the net loss of 71,000 in the year-earlier period. The MSO, the fourth-largest U.S. cable operator, also added 86,000 broadband and 41,000 phone customers.
To gain scale, Charter has been interested in acquiring or merging with other operators, and is weighing a new bid for Time Warner Cable, Reuters reported last week. Such a deal would be in conjunction with John Malone's Liberty Media, which holds a 27% stake in Charter.
Charter execs declined to discuss the company's M&A plans on the call with analysts, although they acknowledged that the MSO's net operating loss carry-forwards would provide tax benefits in a merger or acquisition. Charter exited bankruptcy reorganization in late 2009.
But while Charter's operating metrics have improved, and TW Cable turned in "atrocious results" for Q3 following its CBS blackout, the potential synergies may not be enough to sway shareholders of the larger operator a deal makes sense, MoffettNathanson analyst Craig Moffett wrote in a note.
"[T]he odds of a deal coming together have unquestionably grown," Moffett wrote. But a deal would leave the combined entity heavily in debt, which "gives the [Time Warner Cable] board its most credible air cover in fending off Charter's overtures."
Meanwhile, Rutledge was asked on the call whether Charter is pondering a package similar to Comcast's Internet Plus -- which offers HBO, broadcast TV and high-speed Internet for a lower price than typical bundles -- or partner with an over-the-top streaming player like Netflix. He responded, "We have no plans to change our go-to-market strategy."
A major initiative at Charter is converting to all-digital video across its entire footprint, a project expected to be completed by the end of 2014. That will let Charter boost broadband speeds as well as deliver more reliable, higher-quality video, Rutledge said.
Rutledge said Charter's broadband-only growth has been greater than he thought it would be, partly because of the operator's weak video offering. But, he added, "I see our 1.3 million broadband-only customers as a selling opportunity for us" to take video as well.
Overall, Charter posted revenue of $2.1 billion, up 5.4% on a pro-forma basis (incorporating results from Bresnan Communications acquired from Cablevision). Pro-forma earnings before income tax, depreciation and amortization were $732 million, up 5.3% (versus 1% in the year-ago period).
Charter narrowed its net loss for the quarter, to $70 million (68 cents per share) versus $103 million ($1.03 per share) a year earlier on a pro-forma basis.

Questions & Answers
ECR4Kids Kids 4 Piece Table and Chair Set
Sturdy Product
jana from st. louis, MO– Verified Buyer
We purchased this product to use in our Child Care Centers Reception area. They were easy to assemble and look great. The red color was true to the picture. Our kids ages 1-5 years love sitting in them to read. The only downside is they are cloth and do not wipe off easily. You have to remove the cover to wash.
Very cute and affordable
care Bear from Bellefontaine, Ohio– Verified Buyer
Bought this for the grandkids playhouse. It is so adorable and the price was good. It cleans up well, and the kids say they are comfortable. Little ones are 4 and can still grow into them to let you know their size. I would recommend these to anyone.
Great set!
Erin from Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada– Verified Buyer
My kids love this set.
Not a happy camper!
Nique from Milton, West Virginia– Verified Buyer
I would think that if you bought something together, it would match. The reds on the chairs fabrics are different from the red on the couch. One is a much brighter red than the other. Also, you can't wipe them off or when it dries you have what looks like a water mark. A white ring around the edge where is once was wet and now is dry.
Great looking and Excellent Value
Hope this Helps from FL– Verified Buyer
This set is priced the best at Wayfair. They were easily assembled. Kids and parents alike love them. Definitely would purchase again. I'm not certain about cleaning them yet because we haven't had them long enough, but the red is a slipcover that can be taken off and washed.

Combining their responsibility to the community and their desire to be environmentally conscious, they have a program to reduce (or better yet, re-use) what they would normally dispose of... Early Childhood Resources has eliminated almost all of their cardboard waste by implementing commercial cardboard shredding equipment in its facilities to convert cardboard destined for the landfill into some of the best packing material available.
Competition typically demands lower costs and with it, labor intense jobs are being exported faster and faster every year. Early Childhood Resources, being committed to "Maximum Value," balances the demands from the marketplace with the practicality and social values of finding ways to maximize the capabilities of those in our community with developmental disabilities, and want to work! The program provides a stimulating and developmentally enriching environment. These individuals gain valuable social and work skills while earning competitive wages, and creating "Maximum Value" in their products.

The point guard for the Texas Titans was feeling it.
In the midst of a seven-game tournament in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, the young man wearing jersey number 30 was more than on his game. The hoop was bigger, the ball was light and Jesse Pistokache was on his game like never before. All on the biggest stage in the country: the 2011 National Championships.
Playing point guard for the AAU Club, the Texas Titans, Pistokache is part of an elite basketball squad that took last year's national championship in Memphis. Seeking to defend their title, Pistokache and the Titans entered the tournament that included 113 teams from all over the country and proceeded to dominate. Jesse had no problem dropping 30 points in back-to-back games. The kid was feeling it. The kid had Jimmer-blood in his veins. It was unbelievable. Then.
Then, suddenly, in an effort to secure a loose ball, the Titans' point guard collided with an opposing player, sending pain from his upper chest muscles down his right arm. It wasn't serious, just a stinger. But the immediate consequences were serious. The stinger would keep the 15-year old from playing to full capacity for the rest of the tournament. Still, his team did go on to win the national championship. The title was the second straight for the organization, as they beat a fellow Texan team for the title.
For Jesse, the injury will heal, but it kept him from competing at full capacity on the biggest stage for high school athletes. Though the incredible baller is not allowed to have official contact from college coaches until the summer after his sophomore year of high school, these tournaments are unofficial breeding grounds for the next great college players and NBA stars. Further, Jesse will likely not be able to compete at this weekend's "Hoop Group Elite" which prides itself as the "Nations #1 Exposure Camp."
However, while this national stage is often "high school politics on steroids," the young baller has had quite the following already on this inflated stage. Pistokache did a question and answer session with SlamOnline.com and is featured on Lebron James' website under the page "Young Ballers." Further, there are plenty of YouTube videos featuring Jesse's game.
"Jesse flat out scores the basketball as well as any guard in the class of 2015," says Dave Spahn, the writer for Slam Magazine that conducted the interview with Jesse and is an active follower of high school recruiting. "He has phenomenal court vision and leads a team with great passion. His size, skillset, and character will make him a hot commodity amongst big time college coaches in the near future."
Only entering his freshman year, the Pistokache will have plenty of time to build his reputation in the Rio Grande Valley and then continue to attend the elite camps and tournaments. For the rest of 2011 and then into the early part of 2012, Jesse will have the unique opportunity to play with his older brother Quino at Sharyland High School.
The two are primed to make a near unstoppable duo for the Rattlers. Quino has starred for David Keith's squad for the past two years and looks to have a memorable senior season playing alongside Jesse. Merely by Jesse's addition to the team, Sharyland will be a serious contender for a District 30-5A title. The freshman Pistokache will be a perfect ball handler to run Keith's offense and to set up his brother as well as himself.
In time, Jesse will be feeling it. The RGV will be feeling it. And, before long, the nation will be feeling it.

At the third stop of the USAT tour, hundreds of archers from around the country gathered to sunny Chula Vista, CA at the Olympic Training center for the annual SoCal Showdown. In typical fashion, Team Hoyt shooters were there firing on all cylinders and laying claim to the coveted podium positions.
In the Men's Compound action, Hoyt's very own Steve Anderson bettered his third place qualification ranking position by winning his way to the gold medal match and finishing it off with a one point victory over his final opponent. "It feels good to win my first USAT tournament. The wind was a little tricky and caught me off guard on a few shots, but I managed it well enough to get the win. There will always be some shots that I could be better on." commented Anderson. Anderson shoots the Pro Comp Elite Xl with Spiral-X cams. Hoyt's tournament circuit legend, Reo Wilde shooting the Pro Comp Elite with Spiral-X cams, rounded out the podium with the bronze medal by beating his opponent with a four point victory. Wilde's medal clinching score of 146/150 was the highest score shot in all of the windy medal matches.
Women's Compound competitor and Hoyt Pro Staff member, Erika Jones qualified in the number one position worked her way through the single elimination bracket. After a defeat in the semi-finals, Jones came back strong and won the bronze over fellow Hoyt Pro Staff member, Carli Cochran. Jones and Cochran both shoot the Pro Comp Elite.
The Men's Recurve division had some familiar faces take center stage. Hoyt shooters Jake Kaminski, Sean McLaughlin and Brady Ellison all met at the top of the leader board in the qualification round and met once again in a different order at the end of the single elimination bracket. With their Hoyt Formula series bows, Ellison clinched the gold, Kaminski took silver and McLaughlin won the bronze, rounding a podium sweep for Team Hoyt.
The Women's Recurve division also had a Clean Hoyt sweep. Mackenzie Brown added another USAT gold medal to her trophy case. Khatuna Lorig took the bronze and Stephanie Kim won the bronze over fellow Hoyt shooter Ariel Gibilaro. All of the final four recurve women shoot the proven Hoyt Formula system.
Regardless of the competition, Hoyt is there to take the best shooters to the top of the podium. Witness for yourself the tournament winning technology that goes into every Hoyt compound and recurve bow by visiting your local Hoyt retailer.
