NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WECT) – County Commissioner Brian Berger said he has no plans to resign, despite calls for his resignation from board Chairman Woody White.
In a text message sent to WECT's Jon Evans, Berger wrote, "I've been waging that battle in the face of threats, intimidation, harassment, discrimination, 60 yr old acting like they're six, and I intend to keep my campaign promises...I used to joke id (sic) eat out of a garbage can with my dog b4 id (sic) become 'part of the club' and I meant it as a semi-joke then but its how seriously I take keeping those promises. Its (sic) past the time for a full state and or federal investigation into the discrimination and fraud leveled at me and mistreatment of others...most important of all the people of nhc. Those who have conducted themselves honorably have no reason to fear a full investigation."
White sent an email to Berger and other commissioners Friday morning asking him to seek help after posing a security risk to Governor Pat McCrory Thursday.
"Your actions have been erratic, delusional, and manic," White wrote in the email. He went on to say that no one wants to meet with Berger, "because of the risk [he] poses."
White said during a press conference Friday afternoon Berger didn't pose a physical threat to the governor, but his appearance was concerning.
The chairman said his "heart skipped a beat" when Berger jumped on the podium at a groundbreaking the governor was attending, because he knew his "appearance was frightening." White said Berger was shaking and stammering, his eyes were red and he had drool coming out of his mouth.
White said he was thankful nothing bad happened, but was anxious in that moment. The chairman then asked troopers at the groundbreaking to stand between Berger and the governor. The troopers told White about 20 minutes later they asked Berger to leave because he knocked on the window's of the governor's SUV.
"I don't think he posed a physical threat," said White. "But it gave me great concern."
McCrory's office said, "the governor was never harmed while in Wilmington."
While the issues with Berger stem back to a couple of years ago with the attempt of suicide and a domestic violence situation he had with a friend, White said his erratic behavior has escalated over the past 20 days.
He said Berger made a couple thousand copies of a rambling and incoherent statement and gave to people throughout the area. He then used county issued access at strange hours of the night. Additionally, his appearance Thursday at the groundbreaking was alarming.
White said the tipping point was an email request sent at 2:16 a.m. for a face-to-face meeting with the county attorney.
While the chairman said he doesn't know if Berger is necessarily a violent person, but he does know people with mental health issues will reach a point and act out.
The chairman is encouraging Berger to gather with his friends and family and seek treatment. White offered to help Berger with that, if asked, for free.
"It is time," White wrote in an email to Berger. "It was time for you to do so long ago, but these recent episodes have reached a critical mass."
White hopes Berger resigns from his position with the board so he can spend his time getting support from his family and friends and seek help.
While a decision has not yet been made, White said commissioners are considering filing a non-domestic violence restraining order against Berger to ensure the safety of our commissioners and citizens.
White emphasized the commissioners want to focus on the issues and serve the public, but are constantly dealing with this issue sitting in the back of their minds.
Precautionary steps have been taken to keep Berger out of the county manager and attorney's office. Additionally, there will be a presence from the New Hanover County Sheriff's Office at all public meetings to ensure safety.
Berger has had a history of run-ins with local law enforcement. Most recently he was charged with DWI at the end of 2012.
In June 2011, Berger was charged with assault on a female after an incident with an ex-girlfriend. She later got a protective order against him. He was charged with violating that order in 2012, but a jury found him not guilty of that in August.

EDITORIAL: Lone wolves no longer?
Delisting may be in sight for wolves in Wyoming
In the near future, management of Wyoming's wolves should be exactly where it belongs — in the hands of the state.
During discussions last week, state and U.S. officials said they expect to publish a ruling by September detailing how to end federal protections for wolves in Wyoming and allow state management.
'A miracle surgery'
Wagner seizure-free since brain surgery
Just days after undergoing brain surgery to remove a benign tumor, Zach Wagner did what no one expected so soon: He came home.
Prior to the June 17 surgery in Arizona, doctors told Zach that, under the best case scenario, he would go home after two to four weeks. Instead, Zach was en route to Powell just four days after surgery.
EDITORIAL: iPads provide new learning opportunities
Not all that long ago, a pencil and notebook were standard classroom necessities and, in the context of school, an "apple" simply illustrated the letter "A." No more.
Pencils and paper will be used less, and Apples will take on a new meaning this fall as Powell students use Apple iPads to read, write and learn in new ways.
City gives $20,000 to new economic effort
Other special requests funded
Following a public hearing devoid of any comments from the public, the Powell City Council on Monday unanimously approved a $16.69 million budget encompassing all the city's anticipated expenses and revenue for the new fiscal year beginning July 1.
City provides additional $5,000 for golf course from current budget
Following a wet spring that dampened golf course revenues, Powell Golf Club board members on Monday asked the Powell City Council for an additional $5,000 from the current fiscal year's budget, which ends June 30. The new fiscal year budget, which will provide $60,000 for the golf course, takes effect July 1. (See related budget story.)
EDITORIAL: State support brightens landfill future
Landfill worries have loomed on Powell's horizon for years — where will Powell's trash be taken? How much will it cost the city? Will there be an additional 1-cent tax to help fund a transfer station? And so on.
The city of Powell received some answers to those long-debated questions on Thursday when the State Loan and Investment Board (SLIB) provided $652,502 toward a Powell transfer station.
Council considers $16.69 million budget Monday
Proposed budget includes franchise fee on city utilities
Looking to bolster general fund revenue and offset a roughly $275,000 operating deficit at the Powell Aquatic Center, city of Powell leaders plan to begin collecting a franchise fee from city utilities.
The proposed 4-percent franchise fee for the city's four utilities is among the changes from the past year in the city of Powell's 2011-'12 budget, which is slated to be finalized by the Powell City Council on Monday, June 20.
EDITORIAL: Honor the flag with proper care
The red, white and blue of Old Glory will be flown in communities around America in recognition of Flag Day today (Tuesday). While honoring the history, symbolism and significance of the flag, the annual holiday also is a good time to recognize how to properly care for the revered American symbol. (See the related flag guidelines.)
EDITORIAL: Post office closures pose problems in rural areas
With no tax support for its operating expenses, the U.S. Postal Service runs like a business. And, like many businesses in recent years, the U.S. Postal Service has struggled to remain solvent. Last year, the struggling organization posted an $8 billion deficit.
Of course, an $8 billion deficit means cutbacks — plain and simple.
Honoring Shane
Street dedicated, monument unveiled in honor of fallen Marine
We're here to celebrate an American hero," said Major General Steven A. Hummer, U.S. Marine Corps, to dozens of residents who gathered Monday in the rain along "Lt. Childers Street."
On Memorial Day, the Cody street was dedicated to honor the heroic life and sacrifice of 1st Lt. Shane Childers, who was the first U.S. serviceman to die in the Iraq war. The esteemed Marine was killed in action while leading his men during an assault on a pumping station on March 21, 2003.

McKenny will bring to the commission relevant knowledge. His 26 years on the Humboldt Community Services District, several terms on Humboldt County's Local Agency Formation Committee and his experience with the development of Eureka's Community Plan will aid in the decisions and work he does on the Humboldt County General Plan as well as all of the issues that come before the commission.
Kevin McKenny has been a community servant for close to three decades. We are fortunate that he is willing to step up to the plate and take on this new role as planning commissioner -- this is someone who is running a business. The current time commitment for a planning commissioner is considerable and we should all feel fortunate that he is up for the task.

The State Fire Marshall concluded Monday that Tim Karrels, 36, started a fire in his apartment and committed suicide by gunshot Sunday night above the Moose Lodge on Green Bay Avenue in Saukville, where he was removed by responding firefighters and pronounced dead in an ambulance.
Karrels was a Saukville firefighter, a DJ, and owner of in Port Washington.
Earlier Sunday night, Karrels went to for a burger and a soda, like he did almost every week, bar owner Jody Schwanz said. From watching security camera footage and talking to the bartender who was there, Schwanz said he seemed to be in the same good mood he always sported, cheerily conversing at the bar.
"Everybody knew him here at the bar," Schwanz said. "He was always happy, and there was nothing different last night."
Schwanz was unsure of the time frame, but estimated he was at the bar from about 8:30 to 9:15 p.m.
A neighbor called police at about 9:45 p.m. Sunday night when he smelled smoke outside the Moose Lodge building, which has two apartments on the second floor.
A responding Saukville police officer entered the building and felt that Karrels' door was hot, according to Saukville Police Chief Bill Meloy. The officer kicked in the door and yelled for Karrels, who he knew lived there. Karrels is a 13-year veteran of the Saukville Fire Department.
"He didn't get any response, and the smoke was so thick, he had to withdraw," Meloy said.
When the fire department arrived, they pulled Karrels out of the building, and Karrels was pronounced dead in an ambulance at 10:31 p.m.
Meloy said nobody was home in the other apartment in the building, and the fire was contained to Karrels' apartment. He said the apartment kitchen and living room were extensively damaged.
The outside of the building Monday looked unscathed except for broken windows on the side of the building. Meloy said the windows were not broken when the department arrived and could have been broken during rescue water spraying.
Several fire departments responded to the scene Sunday night. Meloy estimated there were about 50-75 responding officials.
A firefighter, dart supplier, and DJ
Many of the responding officers and firefighters Sunday night personally knew Karrels from his work with the fire department. Word spread quickly Monday morning to his family and friends.
"He was always on the job, on the scanner, trying to help out when he could," Ann Dohms, a friend and owner of The Spot in Port Washington, said.
Karrels also owned in Port Washington, and was a popular local DJ. A sign posted on his business window Monday morning read, "You will be missed, brother! We <3 you, forever!"
- Watch:
Dohms, who has known Karrels about 20 years, had him DJ her wedding.
"Tim was a good guy, and he loved his karaoke and DJing," Dohms said. "He always had a great show and loved being with people."
About two weeks ago, Dohms moved in above Karrels' store and said they would often chat about business.
"We would always talk about owning a business and what a struggle it can be sometimes," Dohms said. "We'd vent to each other about our businesses and try to cheer each other up when we had a bad day ... He will be very missed."

Nearly all of the 72 Chicago area Dominick's stores closed Saturday, Dec. 28. But that didn't prevent Glen Ellyn Dominick's store employee Steve Yamamoto from getting suspended from his job on Saturday.
What on earth could get him suspended from Dominick's on the last day of the store's existence? The YouTube video embedded in this article, that's what.
NBC Chicago is reporting that the parody on the store closings, titled "Thanks Safeway," was posted on Friday. The sarcastic sci-fi action scenes feature explosions, laser beam annihilations, fire breathing dragons and other apocalyptic-style special effects.
When Yamamoto arrived for his last day of work Saturday, he was suspended. He said he was "dumbfounded" that his attempt to make light of a bad situation would result in his suspension. But, he told NBC, "It was all worth it."

ummmm, these are definitely are not the boys rankings. Wesleyan was 11-16 last year. I doubt they'd be ranked 1 in the preseason in AA. Southwest Atlanta Christian was 4-14 last season. Number 3 to start off this year in Class A? I don't think so.

Columbia should win state this year of the addition of Anthony Rice , Nick Singlton ,Khail Haynes , Jerrick Cobb and Jalen Cobb. They are a very deep team with returning key players like Bryce Brown ,Mariuce Rivers , and Adonis Green. They are hungry and has put in a lot of working doing the summer and the begining of August.

How Washington Works - Or Doesn't
- Thursday, Feb. 20, 7 p.m.
- Edwards Recital Hall
President Obama likes to say that Washington is broken, and he's right. But the causes of that dysfunction go back well before his presidency and are rooted in trends that will be hard to reverse. Steve Roberts has been a journalist for close to 50 years and in his talk he will analyze some of those trends: from where Americans live and how they vote, to the rising role played by outside pressure groups and media outlets that emphasize conflict over conciliation and reward the loudest, shrillest voices with money and attention. As a result, compromise has become a dirty word, the center of Congress has been hollowed out, and ideologues and extremists rule the capital.

Their troubles, grave and yet, somehow, hilarious, are highlighted by their priggish cousin, Chick, and by the awkward young lawyer who tries to keep Babe out of jail while helpless not to fall in love with her.

The Hindu View of Poverty in Terms of Duty and Reincarnation
- Ron Green
- Monday, Feb. 24, 4:30 p.m.
- Lackey Chapel
Hinduism's view on wealth and poverty can be understood in relation to its four goals of life: dharma (duty), artha (worldly prosperity), kama (enjoyment or pleasure) and moksha (liberation). While dharma encourages Hindus to work hard and earn money, it is also used to explain why people are born into different castes, each with its own social and economic conditions. Professor Ron Green from the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies will consider these issues.
Session 3: Swing Jazz
- Monday, Feb. 24, 7 p.m.
- James J. Johnson Auditorium
Films: Ken Burns' Jazz: Episode 6: Swing, the Velocity of Celebration and International Sweethearts of Rhythm
As the Depression deepened, Swing Jazz survived. In 1936, Count Basie arrived in New York City, bringing his signature up- tempo, blues-influenced sound he developed playing clubs in Kansas City. That same year Benny Goodman made history when his swing band played Carnegie Hall in New York City. Clips of this landmark performance show Gene Krupa's pyrotechnic display of drumming, which sets the highbrow audience to dancing in the aisles.
International Sweethearts is an award-winning documentary tells the little known story of a multiracial, all-women swing band that became a sensation in the 1940s. With the outbreak of WWII, the group expanded, riding the swing craze to sold-out performances in theaters across the country.

Did You Know? : Say hello to mechanically separated chicken. It's what all fast-food chicken is made from—things like chicken nuggets and patties. Also, the processed frozen chicken in the stores is made from it. Basically, the entire chicken is smashed and pressed through a sieve—bones, eyes, guts, and all. it comes out looking like this. There's more: because it's crawling with bacteria, it will be washed with ammonia, soaked in it, actually. Then, because it tastes gross, it will be reflavored artificially. Then, because it is weirdly pink, it will be dyed with artificial color.
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wttff thats so gross
pardon me while i wipe up all the vomit
Ugh *shudders* I don't eat chicken from outside places, so I got saved from that nastiness.

A Defense of Wall Street
What is Wall Street, anyway? I would be willing to bet that 90% of the protesters from Occupy Wall Street and of self-styled liberals have absolutely no idea what Wall Street is, what it does, and how important it is. If not for Wall Street, there wouldn't be any Main Street, certainly not as we know it today. In order for any business to be | Read More »

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- The Louisville Cardinal football team is counting down the days until kick off during two-a-day practices.
Everyone knows two-a-days are never fun, especially with the temperature rising again over the past few of days.
No need to worry though, the UofL football team has survived and starting tomorrow, they'll only practice in the afternoons.
Coach Charlie Strong says that's a great relief to the players.
Then, after practice, the players hooked up with the band where the players were being taught the words to the alma mater. As you can see in the video, they still have a ways to go.

Join TSN in a 30 teams in 30 days tour of the NHL in preparation for the upcoming season. Teams will be unveiled in reverse order of the pre-season TSN.ca Power Rankings, and the Montreal Canadiens are up next. Get the lowdown on their off-season and the issues they face this season. Use the Your Call feature to give us your take on the Canadiens!
Montreal Canadiens2009-10: 39-33-10 (8th in East, Eliminated in Conference Final by Flyers)General Manager: Pierre Gauthier (2nd Season)Head Coach: Jacques Martin (2nd Season)
What they did in the off-season:
The Habs stunned the hockey world in June when they shipped playoff hero Jaroslav Halak to the St. Louis Blues in exchange for prospects Lars Eller and Ian Schultz. General manager Pierre Gauthier remained busy, sending the rights of disgruntled forward Sergei Kostitsyn to the Predators for the rights to forward Dustin Boyd and goalie Dan Ellis. The Canadiens did get Boyd's name on a contract, however Ellis eventually signed with the Lightning. Montreal took care of some more housekeeping by re-signing Tomas Plekanec, Mathieu Darche, Benoit Pouliot, Tom Pyatt and Maxim Lapierre.The Habs took a dip in the free agent pool, picking up netminders Curtis Sanford and Alex Auld. When it took longer than expected to sign newly anointed starter Carey Price, the Canadiens added some more depth in net by acquiring Karri Ramo in a trade with the Lightning. The Habs rounded out their summer by adding utility man Jeff Halpern into the mix at forward.
Biggest issue facing the team:
Expectations in La Belle Province were extremely high entering the off-season following a shocking Eastern Conference final run by 'Les Glorieux.' Those expectations came crashing down when Halak was dealt to St. Louis. Even if the trade made sense from a financial perspective, it has been extremely difficult for Habs' brass to sell the notion that the team remains a Stanley Cup contender despite the jettisoning of their playoff hero. Not helping matters is the fact that Halak remains revered in Montreal as thousands turned out for a charity autograph session earlier in the month to say their goodbyes. What made matters worse was the team's inability to come to terms with the anointed number one, Carey Price for the majority of the summer. Fortunately for Habs fans the two-sides set aside their differences and were able to get the deal done early in September. The signing saved a massive headache for Gauthier as the team faced the very real prospect of opening training camp with Alex Auld and Curtis Sanford splitting duties between the pipes. That would have been an underwhelming prospect considering that goaltending was considered one of Montreal's biggest strengths last season.
On the positive side of the ledger, All-Star defenceman Andrei Markov should be healthy enough to start the season with the team and barring disaster, rookie phenom P.K. Subban should break camp with the team, meaning that the team's blueline will be as strong as it has been in recent memory. That being said, the Canadiens did not address one of their most glaring weaknesses as they are still extremely small down the middle. In addition the departure of unsung heroes Glen Metropolit and Dominic Moore, leaves them short a pair of checking line forwards. While the late signing of Halpern will help, at age 34 his best days are in the rear-view mirror. It appears as though the Habs will be hard pressed to repeat last season's success. Should they get off to a slow start there will be calls for the heads of both Gauthier and coach Jacques Martin. However both men undoubtedly understand that comes with the territory in Montreal.
Player to watch:
The upcoming campaign may well be the defining season of Carey Price's young career. The Habs handed him the keys to the car following the Halak deal in the hopes that boost of confidence would allow him to re-discover his form from the 2007-08 season after a pair of down years. While it took longer than expected to get his name on a new contract, the Canadiens have to be happy that they have been able to lock up Price for the next two years and have him in training camp as soon as it opens. Canadiens management obviously realized that they could not afford to fall behind early in the playoff race in the Eastern Conference and play themselves out of the contention before they even hit the starting blocks. Now the pressure falls squarely on Price's shoulders to live up to the massive expectations that have been placed upon him.

Don't really get fanfiction. Don't like it, as far as I know.
Rewriting Snow White
Once upon a more current time, there lived a beautiful young lady, with skin as white as snow: Snow White, the wonderous, most charming girl in Ellewood. Word of her fairness had even long since traveled to the farthest of destinations. Anyone who was anyone were either pleased to know Snow, or eager to meet her.
In the midst of Ellewood, however, lived an ugly, angry lady named Malisafent. She was utterly jealous of Snow White and how other adored her and her beauty. She became so obsessed with ridding Ellewood of Snow, that she became good friends with Snow's parents, and even offered to become their housekeeper for free, but her intentions couldn't be further from honorable.
Every day Snow White was at school, Malisafent would raid her room, plant things to try to get her in trouble, destroy schoolwork, and read her journals to find clever ways to upset her. One day she read that Snow White's favorite food was apple pie, and how she loved to go apple-picking on the edge of town with her friends for only the freshest apples. Malisafent then had an idea. She was going to poison an apple and offer it to Snow White.
That night, the White family had insisted that Malisafent had overworked herself for the day and should stay for supper. Snow was starting to feel uncomfortable having Malisafent around, especially after all the mishaps that were happening since she was hired by her parents. Though suspicious, Snow tried to see the good in everybody, so she joined her parents in welcoming her to the dinner table. Malisafent smiled, fooling her parents with her hidden intent. To make things worse, Malisafent got an even better idea that night. She asked the Whites consistently for more helpings of food, until they were stuck in the kitchen, leaving her and Snow White alone.
Malisafent saw her window of opportunity, took a knife from the table and attacked Snow White. Snow screamed and ran for her life, with no time to look back. The Whites came out of the kitchen immidiately, but their daughter was already gone. They caught Malisafent red-handed with the knife still in her hand, and as Mr. White wrestled her to the ground, Mrs. White called the police. Malisafent fought back, and as Mr. White took the knife from her hand, she gathered the strength to get up and run out the door before the authorities got there.
Snow White had managed to get away, but she had nowhere to go. She was afraid Malisafent had hurt or even killed her parents, and was still looking for her. She knew whatever she did, she couldn't turn back. While walking through the woods, far outside of Ellewood at this point, she came across a country house. As she approached the house, she anxiously thought of what she should say. She knocked on the door and when a handsome man answered, she nearly choked on her words.
"May I help you?" asked the tall, dark-haired man.
"I…uh…umm…" babbled Snow. The man gazed at Snow with an inquiring look on his face, and after a short pause, she found her words. "I need help."
Ater hastily explaining the situation, the man let her inside, where she found six other men sitting in a large living room, watching TV. They weren't far from gorgeous either. As they all welcomed Snow White and sympathized with what had happened to her, they handed her a blanket and a hot cup of tea, told her to make herself comfortable, and introduced themselves: Sleepy, Sneezy, Happy, Bashful, Grumpy, and Dopey. Each man's name had also come with a personality to match it. She then turned and looked at the man who had invited her in.
"And what is your name?" she asked in most curiosity.
"I'm Doc," he replied. The look in his eyes was almost enchanting.
"Doc," she confirmed, with a smile on her face.
Snow White then took a sip from her tea, and noticed all the men were suddenly staring at her in query. "And you are…" asked Doc.
"Oh how rude of me!" she realized. "I'm Snow White. I aplogize, it has been such a long night."
"Snow White," Doc confirmed, this time smiling at her. "Well, Snow, you may sleep in my bed tonight. I can take the couch. You really need to catch up on some sleep. We will catch up more at breakfast in the morning."
Snow White awoke the next morning, thinking that the night before was all a dream, until she looked around and saw that she was in what nowhere nearly resembled her room. The sunlight beamed through the window as she squinted and stretched, ready to get up. She put her jacket on and made her way to the living room, which was empty. She then heard the voices of the men, and followed the sound to the kitchen, where breakfast was being served.
"Good morning!" shouted Doc from the stove, where he was flipping eggs onto a plate. "Take a seat!" As she sat down, he brought the plate over to her. "I hope you like eggs and bacon."
"I love anything at this point," she said, thinking that the one thing she might really love could be him. Doc finished making his plate and sat down with his room mates and Snow White at the table.
Bashful looked over to Snow White and blushed. "You're s-ss-so pretty," he said. "And you are welcome t-tt-to have whatever you'd like here."
"He's right," Doc added. "Anything you need during your stay, just ask."
"That's ridiculous!" shouted Grumpy. "She just walks in here and all the sudden she's queen! I tell ya, you should have turned her to the streets! She has no business here. And what if that evil bitch comes looking for her!? I tell ya what, it won't be me who gets killed for this girl!"
"Grumpy, calm down," added Doc. "No one is going to find her here, and she's welcome here, so make her feel welcome."
Grumpy sighed in disagreement, as Sneezy sneezed, breaking the silence. "Is there anyone else who doesn't want Snow here?" Doc asked the others. "Or do you believe she's safer here and we can handle this like men?"
Happy smiled big and nodded. Bashful nodded as well, cheeks still rosy red. Sleepy was nearly falling asleep on his breakfast, but woke up in time to concede, and Sneezy sneezed out a very loud "yes!" Dopey, who was usually in his own world, agreed by jumping out of his seat and hugging Snow.
"Well, Grumpy?" Doc and the others looked over.
"Whatever!" he shouted. "I just don't want her anywhere near my things! And she better help out around the house! This isn't the Red Carpet Inn, ya know!"
Over the next week, Snow White cooked for the men while they were at work, and made the house cleaner than it was when she first got there. One day, Doc returned home before the rest of the boys. Snow was in the middle of doing laundry, when the sight of Doc shocked her.
"What are you doing back so early?" she asked.
"The boys are fine," he started. "I wanted to make sure you were okay. It makes me nervous sometimes that you are here by yourself and that lady might come for you."
"That's so nice," she said. She dropped the clothes basket and looked at him, wishing he wasn't so beautiful. "So, uh…how do you all know each other anyway? I mean…I never asked why you all live together."
"We all went to college together. We were actually all in the same fraternity. We even studied the same line of work. Dopey never really did well, of course," he laughed. Then we thought about how much money we could save if we just bought a big house and all went in on the bills and food and stuff. And this place is perfect, and quiet. Could you imagine Grumpy being woken up by city noise? I've seen it, and it's not pretty," he laughed again.
"Yeah, why are you friends with Grumpy?" asked Snow White.
"Known him so long, longer than the others, actually. It's kind of a gotta-stay-friends-because-you just-always-have-to kind of thing."
"And how come all of you are single?"
"There's no one answer for that. We've all been through relationships, but nothing ever got serious. Besides, Grumpy isn't really a girl-magnet. If I didn't know your situation, I would wonder why you'd even want to stick around!"
Snow White looked at him again and he looked back. His smile was so nice and all she could do was stare. She was out of conversation starters, and it began to get awkward. She then turned back to the laundry basket and continued her work.
Meanwhile, in another forest outside of Ellewood, Malisafent was hiding out in a small cottage, hiding from authorities and still plotting Snow White's demise. She studied witchcraft, and after a few weeks, it was time to put her skills to work. She performed a spell to change her identity into an old, innocent-looking woman. She now knew that she could be seen without being arrested, and planned to trick Snow into eating a poison apple, as she first planned. "With this apple, Snow White will be no more. She will sleep forever, until she is finally dead!" she cackled. "Then I will change my appearance once more to a young beautiful woman, and I will be the fairest in Ellewood! Hahahaa!" She gazed into a crystal ball, reciting a spell to reveal Snow's location. As she looked closer, she saw Snow White and seven men dancing in a large house on the other side of Ellewood.
It was Dopey's birthday, and party they did. Snow White had arranged the food and put up the decorations, just to surprise the boys when they got home from work. They were extremely delighted, especially Dopey. Grumpy wasn't too thrilled, however. He sat in a corner most of the night, humphing and rolling his eyes at the others dancing. Snow White then went over to Grumpy and asked him to dance.
"Ha! You must be kidding," he said, turning his head away.
"Come on, Grumpy!" Snow asked again. She grabbed his hands and brought him up out of his chair to celebrate with the others.
Grumpy resisted for a short while longer, until he finally cracked a smile. "Whatever," he said. "But don't be thinkin' you're gonna get me dance again after this…and you better not surprise me for my birthday either!"
"Whatever, Grumpy!" shouted Snow, as she dragged him on the floor and danced with him. even though he tried to resist, in that moment, Snow White seemed to have broken him out of his shell. No one had expected it, especially Doc, who looked over at them dancing, and smiled.
After the party died down, and everyone went to bed, Snow White stayed awake to clean up. Doc was on the couch watching TV, and asked Snow White to take a break and join him. She accepted the offer and sat beside him.
"That was incredible," he said to her.
"Getting Grumpy to dance at the party. Just getting him to have a fun time! No one can do that. Do you know how many times I've tried to get him to even smile?"
Snow smiled and blushed. "I wanted to try and found no harm in it. I'm glad I could help."
"You are special."
"Oh stop; now you're really making me blush!"
"Seriously…" He looked at her and she tried not to look back. She was afraid that if she did she would kiss him. His charm took over though, and she couldn't hold back any longer.
He stared into her eyes and she couldn't help but stare back into his. They leaned in, and right in that second, Dopey opened his bedroom door, coming out for a glass of water and to thank Snow White again for all she's done for his birthday party.
"You're very welcome!" she shouted from across the room. She leaned back into her seat and repeated to herself, "very welcome…"
"I guess we should be getting to bed, huh?" Doc whispered.
"Yeah…yeah you're right," she sighed in disappointment. She might have succeeded in party-planning, but she felt as if she failed in winning Doc's affection.
The next morning, she figured the best way to apologize for any discomfort she might have laid on Doc was to bake him an apple pie and attach a note to it, letting him know she was ready to leave. She then realized they were out of apples, and just as she got ready to get fresh ones, there was a knock on the door. She wondered who it could possibly be and looked out the window to see. It was a nice-looking old woman with a basket full of apples. How coincidental, she thought. She opened the door, assuming that the woman was just the grandmother of one of the boys.
"Hello there," she greeted the old woman with a bit of objection. "What…what can I do for you?"
She had a charming smile and seemed almost impeccable. "Oh my dear, would you be a doll and help me? I have these apples, you see, and I'm selling them to make money to keep my cottage on the other side of the forest. If I do not make enough money, my house will be bulldozed to the ground or sold to a much younger person who can work to afford it. It is so stressful sometimes to be an old woman, especially when all you have are fresh-picked apples to offer." Snow White felt pity for the woman. Though a little loopy, she seemed so nice and well-mannered, and Snow White wanted to help. She was displeased to have to let the lady know that she didn't have any money. "Oh my," the woman began. "I'm sorry to have bothered you. Please, take an apple anyway. I insist. You are so kind for even answering your door."
"Oh, I couldn't," said Snow.
"Please, dear. They are delicious…picked fresh from the best area in the forest. I have plenty more at home, and I want to watch you enjoy how tasty they are. It would certainly make my afternoon."
Snow White took an apple, figuring if it really pleased the lady to do so, she would eat it. As she took a bite and swallowed it, she felt a knot in her stomach as she dropped to the floor gagging. The woman started cackling as Snow White struggled to breathe, and It became clear to Snow whose voice it was. Her eyes closed and the apple rolled out of her hand, and Malisafent then disappeared.
When the boys came back from work, they gasped as they tried to help Snow off the floor to revive her. Doc shouted at the others to keep trying to wake her up, and ran to the kitchen for the phone. In the kitchen, he found a note that read:
Dear Doc,
Thank you for all your hospitality,
and please thank the others for me,
even Grumpy.
I will never forget you,
and I will always wonder,
if your kiss is sweeter than apple pie.
I'm ready to go now.
Please keep me in your heart.
-Snow White
Doc nearly cried as he grabbed the phone to dial the police. They were on their way, but it would take a little while. Doc went back over to Snow and held her head, staring at her gentle face with the greatest passion he's ever known. The boys were crying around them, even Grumpy. Doc then whispered, "I love you," as he leaned in and kissed her still-warm lips. He closed his eyes tight, yet tears still came out. "The only thing sweeter than apple pie was you…"
All the sudden, Snow White batted her eyelashes, opening her eyes, and started to mumble. The boys all opened their eyes and glanced at her in disbelief, and Doc cried louder, hugging her and not letting go. "Wha…what happened?" she asked.
"Love saved you," said Doc. "And you saved me." He then leaned in once last time to kiss Snow White, as she embraced his lips and kissed him back.
When the police arrived, they were pleased that Snow White was finally found and still alive. They reported back to her parents, and they thanked Doc and the other for taking care of her. Malisafent was found and went to prison for life. As for Doc and Snow White, they lived happily ever after, sharing their lives with each other for many, many more apple pies to come.

Why Have One Pt. II
It's the almost the same as having a favorite song and difficult to amswer: What is my favorite movie? Come on now…how many movies are out there? A more accurate question would be, how many countless movies have I seen?! I wonder how long it would take to make a list of everything I've seen and favored. Even that list would be impossible to narrow down. As the last post, there is no one favorite.
Out of curiosity to the very few followers that I have so far, have you completed a 30-day question challenge before?
I'm trying to become a Tumblr hobbyist. It sounds kind of dumb in my head…hobbyist, hobbyism…are these even real words? The bottom line is now that I'm here, I'd like to embrace writing and use this as a free-time hobby. I want to be constructive, entertaining, and more importantly, I want to use this tool to further find and better myself. Writing used to be such a great passion of mine, and now, maybe it's time to revive this wonderful hobby. And hey, if I stick to it, maybe I'll get good at it like I once was.

Google Releases C++ B-Tree Template Library
C++ B-Tree offers memory and time advantages over standard containers.
Google has announced C++ B-Tree, a C++ template library that implements ordered in-memory containers based on a B-tree data structure. This library provides the following containers: btree_map, btree_set, btree_multimap, and btree_multiset.
According to the website, C++ B-tree containers have some advantages over standard containers, which are typically implemented using Red-Black trees. B-trees keep disk seeks to a minimum, and C++ B-tree containers make better use of the cache. The announcement, posted on Google Open Source Blog says that, "for small data types, B-tree containers typically reduce memory use by 50 to 80% compared with Red-Black tree containers."
The Google blog states, "B-trees are well-known data structures for organizing secondary storage, because they are optimized for reading and writing large blocks of data. But the same property that makes B-trees appropriate for use with databases and file systems also makes them appropriate for use in main-memory, just with smaller blocks."
C++ B-tree containers do have some disadvantages. For example, modifying a C++ B-tree container will invalidate all outstanding iterators on that container. However, the library contains "safe variations" on the four containers to address this drawback. C++ B-tree containers have the same interface as the standard C++ containers.

With Easter fast approaching, many of you will be heading out to the grocery to get the goods for Sunday's feast.
Whether you're Catholic and celebrate this holiday in a religious way, or you just like to get together with family to welcome in spring with bunnies and eggs, Easter is the perfect time for good food.
An Irish grocer in Palos Heights has just the place for you to find it. Allen Byrne owns Papa's Fresh Foods, and offers one of the best meat and veggie selections around.
Papa's meats range from the popular rib-eye roast to a boneless leg roast, as well as racks of lamb and crown roasts. You can also pick up some fresh burssells sports, green beans and Irish soda bread.
"The name came from my daughter," Byrne said, "who was thinking of her grandfather back in Ireland."

Salt Lake City starred in Wednesday night's episode of "American Idol," and seven locals - all women - impressed the judges and were sent on to the next round of the competition.
The two-hour episode featured highlights of the auditions that took place here back in October, with judges Harry Connick Jr., Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban passing judgment on their talents.

The seven Utahns who made it through to the Hollywood round of the competition are:
Kylee Adamson, 18, Salem
Jocelyn Baker, 18, Salem
Kenzie Hall, 16, Draper
Tessa Norman, 17, Lindon
Emily Rottler, 17, Salt Lake City
Paisley Van Patten, 25, Salt Lake City
Austin Wolfe, 16, Park City
— We saw Wolfe at the top of the show. She sang Imagine Dragons' "Radioactive," and Jennifer Lopez said, "Austin, I feel like you have the whole package going on." All three judges voted to give her a ticket to Hollywood.
— Next up was Kylee Adamson of Salem, who told the judges she is a lumberjack and then sang "When You Say Nothing At All."
"As soon as you started singing - you had me immediately," Urban said. She also got three yes votes.
— "You're a star," Lopez said to Norman, who sang "Mama Knows Best" by Jessie J. All three judges said yes to her.
— Hall, the winner of Draper Idol, sang John Mayer's "I'm Gonna Find Another You," accompanying herself on the guitar. "You have everything going on," Lopez said. "And you played a diminished chord," Connick added.
She go three quick yes votes, and Lopez proclaimed her "one of my faves."
— Van Patten got a longer profile as we learned that she got a Nashville recording contract at the age of 15 and became an alcoholic. "I'm sober and I'm doing the deal and I'm still chasing my dream," she said.
She sang Faith Hill's "When the Lights Go Down."
"I love your voice," Urban said. "I love that you sang that song. I also love that you sang it very subdued."
Again - three yes votes from the judges. And then Van Patten did a pretty bad Cher impression.
— We got just a glimpse of Baker - a few bars of her singing John Mayer's "No Such Thing" and a few seconds of her celebrating her golden ticket with her family and/or friends.
— Rottler sang Amy Winehouse's "Valerie," and Urban said, "Your voice is great, baby."
Connick added, "When I was listening to you, I'm thinking - this is going to be a really good year on "American Idol.'" And three yes votes.
The final auditions episode of "American Idol" this season airs Thursday at 7 p.m. on Fox/Ch. 13. The Hollywood round of the competition - featuring more than 200 contestants - begins Wednesday, Feb. 5, at 7 p.m.

My church group stay at the Lake Buena Vista Resort Village and Spa was above and beyond. Everyone kept going on and on about the rooms and how much they loved them. This was my second stay at your resort and I will say it won't be my last because I will be planning the next trip real soon. Again, thank you!
