When the temperature plummets, your heating bills can sky rocket. MDU says customers can see big swings in their heating bills during cold days, and during the summer for electricity costs. Yet through their bill balance program, customers can pay a more consistent bill based off of their previous usage. "And so it kind of mitigates the big swings in your bill. In the summer and the winter months on really hot days or really cold days. If you're just paying on a month by month basis for what you use you can have some pretty big swings in your bill," says Mark Hanson, Spokesman MDU. The program is free to join, and Hanson says your bills can vary from month to month, but will stay closer to a consistent rate.
Our energy reporter Mary Cate Mannion will have more on the bill balancing program tonight.

Arbitration agreements were once again in the West Virginia Supreme Court spotlight as two consolidated Raleigh County cases sought to decide whether agreements were unconscionable if one of the avenues for arbitration outlined in the original agreement no longer existed.
Robert J. Front and his wife Bilye S. Front filed their lawsuit in May 2011 in Raleigh County Circuit Court against Credit Acceptance Corporation.
In their civil actions, the Fronts asserted violation of the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act, negligence, intentional infliction of emotional distress and invasion of privacy. The Fronts said the corporation engaged in unfair, oppressive and unconscionable methods to collect debt.
Ocie Shrewsbury also filed a civil action against Credit Acceptance in Raleigh County Circuit Court May 2011, with similar allegations.
The Fronts executed two separate retail installment contract and security agreements from two different places for the purchase of two cars.
The two auto sales businesses assigned all rights, title and interest to Credit Acceptance Corporation, which financed the purchase.
Both contracts included arbitration agreements.
This also was the case for Shrewsbury. Shrewsbury also had executed a retail installment contract and security agreement with an auto sales business to buy a vehicle. This business also assigned rights and interest in the contract to Credit Acceptance.
Credit Acceptance Corporation later filed a motion to compel arbitration in both of these cases. Both cases argued the arbitration agreement is unconscionable and in violation of the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act because the terms in the contract changed and were thus unenforceable.
The corporation argued the arbitration agreement contained an opt-out provision.
Raleigh County Circuit Judge H.L. Kirkpatrick declared the arbitration agreement void because one or two arbitration forums contained in the agreement no longer existed. Therefore, the order continued, that constituted a material change in the agreement.
Meanwhile, Raleigh County Circuit Judge John A. Hutchison also declared the Shrewsbury's contract void because of a material change in the contract.
Citing the West Virginia's Genesis Healthcare opinion, the court in both cases said a sliding scale exists where the more substantively oppressive the contract term, the less evidence of procedural unconscionability is needed.
The court said the original contract is not procedurally unconscionable because it provided a measure to opt out; however since one of the forums was eliminated, it changed the terms of the contract.
The corporation appealed to the state Supreme Court, seeking to dismiss the Front's lawsuits and compel arbitration. Parties presented their oral arguments April 10.
On appeal, the corporation moved to consolidate the Fronts and the Shrewsbury case.
In its brief to the court, the corporation, once again citing the Brown opinion, said the Federal Arbitration act preempts statutory provisions such as the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act.
"While a sliding scale weighing the purported substantive and procedural defects may be employed, a circuit court must find both procedural and substantive unconsciaonbaility, no matter how slight to render a contractual provision unenforceable," the corporation additionally argued.
Addressing the two forums of arbitration, the corporation said the lower court's order was unclear on the avenue. The corporation argued if it meant the American Arbitration Association, "then it is mistaken" because the corporation says the forum still accepts these types of claims.
Addressing the other forum, the National Arbitration Forum, the corporation said this would be correct. However, it continued that even if both forums were unavailable the Federal Arbitration Act provides a way to appoint an arbitrator.
In their brief to the court, the Fronts argued the original arbitration clause gave them the right to arbitrate in two forums— one that no longer exists and the other, they argue, considers copyrighted rules "so unfair to consumers that it will not handle consumer debt collection unless the consumer at the time of the dispute agrees to arbitrate."
Shrewsbury argued the agreement did not disclose that the "NAF would not arbitrate the claims or that the AAA allows creditors to avoid arbitrating their debt collection claims against consumers," and asked if this was procedurally unconscionable.
"When the contract was formed, it specified a forum that did not arbitrate consumer claims and another that had rules too one-sided to enforce," Shrewsbury's brief states. "And Credit Assurance's proposed cure is for the court to improperly rewrite the contract without Shrewsbury's assent."
The Fronts additionally argue the corporation wrongly suggested the U.S. Supreme Court held arbitration must proceed even if the NAF is unavailable. They say the court dealt with whether a federal statute precluded arbitration under the Federal Arbitration Act— it didn't address the NAF's unavailability.
"Lastly the Fronts have not agreed—either expressly or impliedly—to arbitrate despite the NAF's unavailability," the brief continued.
The Fronts and Shrewsbury additionally said the American Arbitration Association rendered the arbitration clause too "one-sided to be valid."
"Under the moratorium, Credit Assurance may freely take into court its debt collection claims against its customers," the Fronts brief states. "The AAA no longer handles debt collection claims brought by creditors unless the consumer—at the time of the dispute—agrees to arbitrate. So, we have one forum and set or rules that do not exist at all and another forum whose rules allow Credit Assurance to bypass it completely."

LGBT legal and advocacy groups decry Obama administration's defense of DOMA
Inga Sarda-Sorensen
Director of Communications
(Office) 646.358.1463
(Cell) 202.641.5592
We are very surprised and deeply disappointed in the manner in which the Obama administration has defended the so-called Defense of Marriage Act against Smelt v. United States, a lawsuit brought in federal court in California by a married same-sex couple asking the federal government to treat them equally with respect to federal protections and benefits. The administration is using many of the same flawed legal arguments that the Bush administration used. These arguments rightly have been rejected by several state supreme courts as legally unsound and obviously discriminatory.
We disagree with many of the administration's arguments, for example that DOMA is a valid exercise of Congress's power, is consistent with Equal Protection or Due Process principles, and does not impinge upon rights that are recognized as fundamental.
We are also extremely disturbed by a new and nonsensical argument the administration has advanced suggesting that the federal government needs to be "neutral" with regard to its treatment of married same-sex couples in order to ensure that federal tax money collected from across the country not be used to assist same-sex couples duly married by their home states. There is nothing "neutral" about the federal government's discriminatory denial of fair treatment to married same-sex couples: DOMA wrongly bars the federal government from providing any of the over one thousand federal protections to the many thousands of couples who marry in six states. This notion of "neutrality" ignores the fact that while married same-sex couples pay their full share of income and social security taxes, they are prevented by DOMA from receiving the corresponding same benefits that married heterosexual taxpayers receive. It is the married same-sex couples, not heterosexuals in other parts of the country, who are financially and personally damaged in significant ways by DOMA. For the Obama administration to suggest otherwise simply departs from both mathematical and legal reality.
When President Obama was courting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender voters, he said that he believed that DOMA should be repealed. We ask him to live up to his emphatic campaign promises, to stop making false and damaging legal arguments, and immediately to introduce a bill to repeal DOMA and ensure that every married couple in America has the same access to federal protections.

Paradise.My arms ache, from digging through
rough and ruin, in search of
I saw it in a whispered dream,
And there, nothing
hurt; we were unspoken.
With winter came warmth and summer snow,
And nothing died, just ceased to
with me, in paradise.
Pride and Acceptance ?They loathe me;
they shout the worst words
right in my ear,
burning, scathing words.
I am proud... Proud of me, of who I am, of what I am.
I'm alone now, shunned.
I curl up in the wastelands
of something I once recognised
as my most intimate identity,
but now feels foreign and outlandish;
like myself.
I am not wrong, they just don't understand me.
(I am proud.I don't need anyone elseto accept me;I accept myself.)

Desipite yesterday's explosive report confirming that top Justice Department officials, including Monica Goodling and Kyle Sampson, had violated federal law, the White House press corps has not asked White House press secretary Dana Perino a single question about it. Both yesterday's and today's press briefings included no discussion of the report, nor a question on whether Attorney General Mukasey would follow through on a criminal perjury referral from Congress.
White House press corps hasn't asked Perino about DOJ politicization.

A new year is here; the time of the year when people often reflect on their lives and make resolutions. Have you thought about how you can live a healthier life in 2012? Consider how you can manage stress better and promote good health in new ways in your life. You can try new ways to incorporate exercise into your life, eat healthier foods, make sure to get regular check-ups and take regular breaks and vacations to reenergize yourself physically and spiritually. Plan a getaway with friends or a family vacation to spend more time with your family and/or friends.
Americans are living longer today than in the past, but many older adults are living with multiple, chronic health conditions and greater rates of disability in old age. A healthy lifestyle is the key to preventing chronic disease. Taking steps now to live a healthier life can lead to enjoying greater health later in your life.
Older Americans tend not to engage in physical activities on a regular basis. According to the recent CDC National Health Community Survey, twenty-seven percent of adults aged 75 plus met the 2008 federal physical activity guidelines for aerobic activity. Women were less likely than men to meet the 2008 federal physical activity guidelines for aerobic activity.
In addition, CDC statistics show that older adults are less likely to do both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities. The 2011 National Health Community Survey states that thirteen percent of adults, aged 65 – 74 met the 2008 federal physical activity guidelines for both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities. Ten percent of adults, aged 75 and over, met these guidelines. For both age groups, women were less likely than men to meet the 2008 federal activity guidelines for both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities.

Infrared Ports
The communication over infrared is by built in ports. In early devices these were simply described as "COM1". The main problem is the need to be with not further than 40cm between devices, but there is a further problem that both transmitter and reciever must be in a straight line and not closer than 9cm. If the transmitter is closer that 9cm the receiver may be "blinded" by the infrared light source.
Java ME and IR ports
MIDlets can query available comm ports using the System.getProperty() method call with string "microedition.commports". This returns a comma-separated list of ports.
According to the MIDP spec, following convention should be used.
Port names contain a text abbreviation indicating port capabilities followed by a sequential number for the port. The following device name types should be used:
- COM#, where COM is for RS-232 ports and # is a number assigned to the port
- IR#, where IR is for IrDA IRCOMM ports and # is a number assigned to the port
The name of the port can then be combined with a comm: prefix as the URL string to be used to open a serial port connection.

Bill has been photographing Cason for over 5 years as part of a long term documentary project. In that time Bill has documented Cason's growth as a skater and as a person, and all the while refining and developing his own techniques as a photographer in this environment. Engaging with a subject in a long term project can enrich your photography and your life in ways you've never imagined.
Get instant access to this course & more
Bill introduces Cason and discusses their history of working together and how they got started on this project.
A benefit of working with someone on a long term project is developing a sense of trust and collaboration that allows you to push the envelope of what each of you can do.
Bringing a strobe into the same setup as the previous lesson allows the shot to transform from a silhouette to a portrait.
The curving lines of the pool coupled with a radical angle allows for a number of graphic elements to come together in the final shot.
The ease and comfort of working together over a long period of time allows for better communication that can facilitate shots that would be otherwise nearly impossible to create.
Working in a portrait session can help track the evolution of the subject over time.
In going back to shoot the subject in the same setting again and again over time you can develop a series of photographs that are useful for comparing and contrasting against shots from other time periods.
It is important to include detail and cutaway shots in your sessions that helps to round out the larger body of work.
Over a long term project you may document various milestones where the subject is able to achieve goals that were previously out of reach.
A lot of the work in a long term project is repetition, where you keep coming back to shots you've done before to show the progression, but also find ways to keep it fresh and move in new directions.
Bill wraps up the class with some reflection on how working on a long term project like this can enrich your life in many unexpected ways.
A most excellent course! Hats off to all, especially Bill Frakes for being so informative. Well done!

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Troy Tulowitzki and Carlos Gonzalez each homered for the second straight game, leading the Colorado Rockies over the Milwaukee Brewers 8-4 Tuesday night and giving Walt Weiss his first win as a major league manager.
Tulowitzki is off to quick start after missing the last four months of the 2012 season with a left groin injury that required surgery.
The All-Star shortstop went 2 for 5 with a homer and two RBIs in Monday's loss on opening day.
Tulowitzki and Gonzalez each drove in two runs in the win. Weiss posted his first victory, a year after he was managing his son's high school team.
Ryan Braun homered for Milwaukee.

Flourless Chocolate Torte
For best results when beating egg whites, start with a spotlessly clean bowl and beater. Any grease or fat, including egg yolk, will prevent the whites from expanding to their full volume. Do not overbeat or they will become clumpy and grainy, and the torte won't rise as successfully. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter to prevent them from deflating.

Oh man, I got quite a few requests for tutorials and the like but I'm just as clueless about most stuff so I feel super unqualified ): But okay, I will try with this! THIS IS JUST WHAT WORKS FOR ME SO TAKE IT WITH A GRAIN OF SALT and feel free to skip any steps you find unnecessary! Also, I'm sorry if anything is unclear, I'm super bad at explaing.
Step 1:
Draw a somewhat squashed circle (it doesn't have to be perfectly circular as actual skulls aren't either!)
Step 2:
Add a trapezoid for the chin!
Step 3:
Add lines from about the middle (if you take perspective into account) of the squashed circle to the chin line. I also added a circle for where the ears would be later. This step, and the former one, are nice to play around with to get different face shapes, from pointy anime chins to lantern jaws of justice!
Step 4:
Add guide lines so the nose and eyes won't be all over the place!
Step 5:
Add the features. I tend to mirror the image every now and then during this step because even with the guide lines, my stuff likes to end up lopsided :I
Step 6:
Add hair and stuff! Make sure to keep the shape of the skull in mind, yo! Luckily, this is not a tutorial for drawing hair so please excuse this mullet made of awkwardly shaped bananas.
Step 7:
Turn the opacity of the sketch layer down and make a new layer! Then draw over that shit. If there were tiny mistakes in the sketch, it's okay, since you can correct them during this step.
Step 8:
Erase the sketch layer or make it invisible and BOOYAH, there you go!
I hope this was somewhat helpful?
For noses, I recommend this tutorial by someone who is way better at explaining stuff than me, because truth be told, I'm still figuring it out.

An autopsy was performed Monday on the two men found dead in Lake Lanier on Friday after disappearing during a fishing trip.
The medical examiner ruled the cause of death for Mason Cox and David Wood, both 20, as drowning. The autopsy revealed that there were no internal or external injuries.
On Sunday night, loved ones of Cox and David Wood shared stories and celebrated the lives of the best friends during an emotional vigil in Dawsonville. The small "North Georgia Church" was standing room only.
Family friend Shawn Dutcher said the young men loved life. "They always had smiles on their face. They really had a lot of fun and that was just really contagious."
"It's been difficult," student Pastor Matthew Pritchett said. "It's been difficult. It's been frustrating. The families are holding up well. In a time when it's really difficult there's really no other word for it."
The two friends never returned from a fishing trip on Lake Lanier on Jan. 2. Their fishing poles were found outside on the porch.
After an extensive search, authorities discovered the bodies eight days later on Jan. 10.
Freezing temperatures hampered the search as nearly an inch of ice blanketed Fredericks Cove.
Wooten said he knows the families and the young men personally and is devastated over their loss.
"It is a small community. We know each other. It is always hard to tell people that you know, the kids that you know, that they are deceased."
The men were found about a quarter mile away from where they were believed to have gone in the water. They were recovered by the Hall County Dive Team in 15 to 20 feet of water Friday afternoon.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigations will continue to gather evidence as to how they died, but initial reports show no signs of foul play.

Can anyone prove the existence of a supernatural deity?
I think that any philosophical ideal that isn't governed by the laws of physics will never be proven. Therefore, I guess all gods are just delusion. Whenever a person believes in god, that is because he found his parents doing so. Which means all our beliefs are nothing but a geographical accident!
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Dec 3 2012: and actualy... if we define "supernatural" being as a being "above" the laws of physics = we are constrained by the KNOWN laws of physics.
Therefore we can postulate there can be beings more advanced than us (aliens) that can be above our known laws of physics, but constrained by a superior set of laws of physics - unknown to us (yet. or forever)
So... at this point - for us those beings would seem to be be "supernatural" (as per the definition above) - but NOT GODS/DEITYS (because are not "all powerful", imortal, etc. just seem like that to us at this point, if we take into consideration our known set of limits - which they surpass)
just like a "being who lives for 1000 years, flies with his fiery magic cape & wields thunder" would be a god to a human person in the year 1000 BC - but which can be a regular human with cool gadgets in a few generations - if science advances continue at this rate

During my visit I felt that I was treated very well.I would absolutely recommend this doctor to my family and friends.I felt this visit was a big help.Overall I would rate this visit : outstanding!
Submitted Sept. 1, 2005 | flag
Dr. Ficarola is the first doctor that actually sat down and had a conversation with me before starting the examination. We discussed family history, past health problems, and goals for the future. He/'s also incredibly responsive to the needs of insurance companies, and does his best to work around their rules (for example, he/'ll prescribe 90-days worth of a medication I take continually since the copay is the same for a 90-day supply as for a 30-day supply... very thoughtful!). He/'ll also try to get his staff to do the labwork on the premises, instead of sending you to another facility. He/'s very good at explaining his diagnosis, and has a gentle and calm demeanor.

PLAYERS: Percy Harvin
TEAMS: Minnesota Vikings
TEAMS: Minnesota Vikings
According to ESPN.com, a Minnesota Vikings source told Josina Anderson that wide receiver Percy Harvin is looking to receive a contract extension that's similar to what both Larry Fitzgerald and Calvin Johnson got from their respective teams. The high-ranking Vikings source told Anderson that Harvin classifies himself among the NFL's top wide outs and expects a contract similar to the deals recently signed by Detroit's Calvin Johnson (eight years, $132 million) and Arizona's Larry Fitzgerald (eight years, $120 million). I can't imagine paying Harvin that much money. To me he's not a complete receiver like Johnson and Fitzgerald. I need to see more consistency over the next couple of seasons before I would be willing to give him a hefty contract .

tray tables down, brains switched to "off" position
A while back, Bethany Bultman, an unflappable supporter of New Orleans musicians, told me of a fairly straightforward promotional effort aimed at airline passengers: Get brass bands to play at Louis Armstrong airport, at baggage claim, to entertain newly arrived tourists and perhaps to offer up flyers listing the various brass-band and traditional-jazz gigs around town. Apparently, this went on for a short while with funding from the Musicians Clinic, then fell flat when the city failed to take interest in offering further support.
But have no fear: The great minds at the New Orleans Convention and Visitors Bureau have come up with a dazzling new plan to promote culture (which apparently makes use of the latest advances in food-photography technology)! Here's a press release I just received, the hilarity of which should make Onion staffers and satirists elsewhere heretofore obsolete:
New ads showcasing New Orleans' world famous cuisine make airline passengers hunger for the Crescent City
NEW ORLEANS (July 12, 2007) - Even with in-flight meals having gone the way of the Dodo bird, The New Orleans Metropolitan Convention & Visitors Bureau (NOMCVB) has found a way to tempt the appetites of airline passengers with its unforgettable cuisine. From the beginning of July through the end of September, the NOMCVB's new tray table ad campaign--appearing on 35 domestic U.S. Airways and America West planes nationwide--depicts life-like images of some of The Crescent City's most savory dishes.
As the first Convention & Visitors Bureau to employ tray table liners as a means of engaging travelers, the NOMCVB is partnering with Brand Connections SkyMedia, the only media company worldwide to offer this unique type of advertising. The ads, created by New Orleans-based Trumpet Advertising, urge passengers to "Reconnect with New Orleans" and feature one of three hard-to-resist images, including a tasty plate of barbecued shrimp resting atop a bed of grits, accompanied by a glass of chardonnay; fried soft shell crab garnished with vegetables, accompanied by a glass of Louisiana-brewed beer; and strawberry shortcake topped with fresh Louisiana strawberries accompanied by a rich café au lait. The liners, which are designed to make passengers feel as though they are feasting on a four-star meal, will be distributed among airline seats (2,800 flights per month) so that each passenger's "order" will be distinct from those of their seatmates.
"We are always looking for creative ways to target business travelers, especially executives who make decisions about convention and meeting locations," said Stephen Perry, president and CEO of the NOMCVB. "We are the first destination to use this advertising strategy and it seemed like a great fit for us--what better way to entice visitors to New Orleans than our world-renown cuisine? I just feel sorry for those passengers who aren't on New Orleans-bound flights who have to find a way to satisfy their hunger elsewhere."
Chef Ryan Hughes of Café Degas, a French bistro located in the Faubourg St. John neighborhood of New Orleans, prepared the food. Sarah Essex, a New Orleans-based photographer who specializes in food and interior images, photographed the plates. The photo shoot required strategic graphic planning to position the plated dishes in the camera lens to optimize the dimensions and specifications of the varying tray tables, all the while optimizing the freshness of the dish from a timing standpoint. The angle of the photo shoot had to be considered as well, to maximize the visual impact on the individual airlines passenger.
The airplane tray table ads are the latest installment of NOMCVB's innovative "Forever New Orleans" branding campaign launched in January 2007 to celebrate New Orleans' culture and dispel myths about the visitor experience. The NOMCVB is pursuing many other creative strategies to beckon travelers back to New Orleans including the launch of 24NOLA.com, an interactive Web site and itinerary planning tool for visitors who want to experience New Orleans culture as locals do; development of "A Whole New Orleans"-- a 30-minute travel television show (currently in production) that showcases the eclectic nature and vibrant culture of the city; an internet marketing campaign; more aggressive direct sales efforts with international travel professionals and convention industry influencers; and a public relations tour to bring the best of New Orleans culture to major metropolitan cities and earn positive mainstream media coverage.
** Digital versions of the tray table liners are available to media upon request.

SRI Newspapers will feature one baby (12 months and under) each week. Parents must submit a picture of the baby alone, as well as some information about the baby including birth date, what the baby likes to do etc. Parental permission must be given for all photos submitted in email or in writing. Child must reside in the areas our publications cover in South County.
RICHMOND ŌĆō If you're looking for something to do this coming February, you should probably head on over to the Richmond Community Center.
Located above the Richmond Police Station on Main Street, the center has a full month of activities planned for next month. The Richmond Social Activities Ad Hoc Committee deserves much of the thanks for this initiative, as does Town Administrator Steve Sette.
The administrator has helped the committee ever since they got their start back late last year as a means of picking up where the disbanded Richmond Senior Citizens Association left off.
As tax season approaches, it is almost time to file that tax return. This year, the AARP Tax-Aide program, which offers free service to help with tax return preparation and filing is extending to low and middle income taxpayers, while also serving its traditional customers, AARP members or senior citizens. The program is also adding a fifth site in South County.
The AARP Tax-Aide program has been serving low and middle income taxpayers for over 40 years. IRS certified volunteers are available at locations in many South County communities to help with tax return preparation and filing. The service includes free electronic filing, providing refunds within 14 days.
At Monday nightŌĆÖs town council meeting the room was packed with residents there to discuss dust problems with Department of Environmental Management (DEM) officials.
The dust problems, which residents say come off of the Centre of New England property, are in the area of JohnsonŌĆÖs Boulevard to Jade Road and Arnold Road to Lydia Road.
Nov. 12, 2006, was the worst day of Nancie Ann SchnellŌĆÖs life, but Jan. 8, 2011 was one of the best.
Her son, Anthony Roberti, was honored as a military hero on that latter date for the incredible actions on the former.
Words Unlimited, the statewide organization of sports writers, sportscasters and sports publicists, will hold its 65th annual Sports Awards Banquet on Sunday, Feb. 20, at The Radisson on Post Road in Warwick.
The reception will begin at 5 p.m. and dinner will be served at 6 p.m.
Tickets are priced at $35 each and may be obtained by contacting Johnson & Wales University director of athletics John Parente at (401) 598-1604, or any Words Unlimited member.
WAKEFIELD ŌĆō Feet First of Wakefield once again partnered with Dansko Footwear to raise nearly $6,000 for hungry Rhode Islanders.
For the third year in a row, Feet First and Dansko donated a portion from the sale of each pair of Dansko shoes to the Rhode Island Community Food Bank. This year they raised $5,940 during the holiday season, which will be matched by the Food Bank's ŌĆ£End Hunger Challenge FundŌĆØ to contribute even further to the community.
If anyone had asked me after the September primary what I thought Bill Lynch would be doing in the future, the answer ŌĆ£selling marijuanaŌĆØ would have been very, very close to the bottom of my list.
But his name was right there in Donna Kenny KirwanŌĆÖs story last Wednesday, along with several other bold-type names from Rhode Island politics, government and business, looking to open a compassion center to supply medical marijuana patients.
SOUTH KINGSTOWN ŌĆō Working with a budget that is out of balance by $1.6 million, the School Committee held its first budget work shop at Tuesday nightŌĆÖs meeting, focusing on what conditions would allow the town to maintain school programs and how to balance within budget projections.
Superintendent Kristen Stringfellow highlighted the 2011 to 2012 budget and where the school district is today concerning the budget.
I donŌĆÖt knowŌĆ"I say that a lot these days and I really donŌĆÖt know, either because IŌĆÖve forgotten or I never knew in the first place. I do know that the longer I am around on this earth, the less I know for a fact. And that is good, I think, because it keeps the mind open to all sorts of new possibilities. If I decided that I knew, then whatŌĆÖs the point? IŌĆÖm done, finished, subject is closed. ItŌĆÖs more fun not to know and hope for advanced knowledge of some sort. Something like that.

Cute and Durable
Comments about Kate's Pink Butterfly Waterproof Label:
I bought these stickers to label my daughter's stuff. They do exactly what they are supposed to do and they are very cute. She loves them! The stickers are a little big, so they don't work well in small spaces. I wanted to use one on the lid or the bottom of her water bottle, but had to put it on the side of the bottle instead. Also, if the stickers were smaller I would have stuck them inside the arm of her sunglasses in case she leaves them somewhere, but alas it doesn't fit. I suppose I could cut the sticker down some since there is a lot of white space around the edge. Other than that, the stickers are great and do hold up well in the dishwasher.
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

As you may or may not know Sean is walking. And he is getting pretty good at it too. As he is growing so quickly, I am required to be more vigilent at the same rate. They are directly proportional. He can now reach worktops and tables and it is getting more dangerous. He also will not pass the opportunity to grab and pull anything he can get hold of.
We of course did the sensible thing like any other parent would do and baby proofed the house. All cupboards in the kitchen now have baby locks, stair gates are up and anything that can pose danger to him is being put out of his reach. This also means;
- We can't have table cloths. What is the point? He will pull it and it will end up on the floor like everything else.
- All my files in my office (I work from home for those who don't know) now reside on the floor and the rubbish bin made home on top of the spare bed.
- We can't have a rug on the kitchen floor. I would like a nice rug on the kitchen floor so it wouldn't look so bare but his highness would pull it all the way to the hallway or where ever he can and it wouldn't stay on the kitchen floor anyway.
- We can't leave the tv remote control unattended or we find various weird programmes recorded on sky+.
- We can't leave our mobile phones within easy reach of Sean or he grabs them and calls random people or surfs the net! So if you receive a weird phone call where all you hear is dadadadada remember this.
- We can't leave keys within easy reach of him as we may end up looking for car keys when we are in a rush and find it at the bottom of his toy box.
- We can't leave magazines or books laying about as he will grab them and tear them up. Same goes for any discount coupons, my poor £5 off voucher :(
From now on Sean decides how we live. Mostly in a funny way, sometimes difficult but always a pleasure.

HTML5 talks about SQL quite openly. And it appears Opera, Safari, and (soon) Chrome are implementing WebDB, which is a SQL database in the spirit of the (emerging) Web SQL Database spec. But that's not to say WebDB is a traditional SQL database. It implements SQLite, which is another beast entirely.

Education "vouchers" solve the fiscal crisis, and also lead to economic recovery?
Simply open up K-12 education to the market place, with government only playing a role by financing the students with a yearly education check of $8000.
*www.usagovernmentspending.com shows American local governments spending $458.3 billion for K-12 education in 2012.
*(Sir Ken Robinson says this education system is a complete failure)
*The new education cost of $8000 education check to 50 million K-12 students is $400 billion per year
*This saves $58.3 billion
*(a $6000 check would save $158.3 billion)
*The yearly education check allows students(and their parents) to choose how, when, where, and what they learn, and also who teaches them
*The yearly education check of $8000 opens up a $400B/year market to entrepreneurs, teachers, and creatives
*($6000 check opens up a $300B/year market to entrepreneurs, teachers, and creatives)
State fiscal crisis solved, federal fiscal crisis solved, and the new education market leads America's economic recovery.
Thoughts everyone?

Jan 28 2013: I also wonder about accountability in a free market educational system. How do we make sure a parent takes the money and spends it on education? Can a parent buy a cheaper education for his or her child and pocket the difference? How do we make certain that all of the education options will prepare students equally and appropriately? Yes, those schools who do a lousy job will go out of business, but no one will know they have done a lousy job until the students' academic lives have been wrecked.
Jan 29 2013: Allan, excellent questions. Football first.
"where I live and teach, people would beat you to death if you suggested taking away their football program, even if it has never won a game"
Education cuts across America are targeting the athletic programs, and vouchers present an opportunity for football:
Fletcher High School's football program under public schooling:
-ticket sales +$90,075
-program advertisements and donations: +$15,700.
-Cash in: +$105775
-Program cost: -$76,700
-coaches' pay: -$33,856
-security costs: -$10,768
-Cash out: -$121,324
Total: -$15,549.
Fletcher High School's football program scenario under $8000 vouchers:
-30 Football players x $8000: +$240,000
-ticket sales +$90,075
-program advertisements and donations: +$15,700
-Cash in: +$345,775
-Program cost: -$76,700
-coaches' pay: -$33,856 -security costs: -$10,768
Cash out: -$121,324
Total: +$224,451
So the students and parents have $224,451 for the 30 athletes to pass education requirements, spend on football, pay other people to take their exams. At $100/hr, they have 2,244 hours of group tutoring to pass exams. They could play football all day 8pm-3pm, then do education at night. With 4-5 hours of practice every day they might win more games.
Numbers from:
Some additional guesses:
-Parents and students directly responsible for payment, which increases donations and more involvement from families.
-Parents and students will be better at advertising, ticket sales, and other revenue generation methods because of the increased responsibility and involvement.
-Coaches will be much more involved in the education, even teaching classes. And because athletes work much harder for their coach than they do for their math teachers, athlete education improves.
-With athletes removed from normal classes, the nerdy kids they push around have a more enjoyable education experience.
Jan 29 2013: Homeschooling encounters many of the questions you ask, so I will address it from the homeschooling perspective.
If a family figures out how to educate their children for $1000, and the father spends the rest at the bar, that innovative father's techniques can be spread through the community. Now fathers already do this with income they earn rather than spending it on education their children. With vouchers, however, children have aces up their sleeves: their mother, their grandparents, their friends, their friend's parents, parental abuse hotlines, church members, charity, and social pressure from the community. And with vouchers, charities and churches would likely spend more time and effort addressing the issues too. These aces for children do not exist in the current education system because it is a government monopoly run by bureaucrats. With that said, isn't it fair to the dedicated parents homeschooling their kids to give them money that their student would otherwise consume going to a public school?
1. What % of American parents do you think would cheat their own children out of an education?
2. Who would sacrifice more for your a child's education and are also in a better position to help them succeed?
A. The mother and father
B. Politicians and government officials
3. Who is more likely to more effectively spend government money on improving the lives of a child?
A. The mother and father
B. Politicians and government officials
All the education options will not prepare students equally, as students and parents have different talents, efforts, and interests. What can be guaranteed is that students will not be forced to go to a school assigned by zip code, that students have choice, that politicians are removed from taking salary out of the education budget, that politicians are removed from forcing textbooks and curriculum, that teachers compete for money from students and parents, and that responsibility is put into the hand of the people.

- Love L. WoodswickedgoodDined on 9/14/2014This is a great family dining spot! The menu is varied but not overwhelming, the food is delicious and filling. The fried cheese curds are a must-have item. They also have an extensive gluten-free menu for those who need it. It's hard to pick a favorite dish as I have something new each team and have loved everything I've ordered. Can't wait until our next visit!Special Features:

- Ribs and ChickenOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/13/2014As L Woods is known for their ribs and chicken, whala! Very good. Next time I order a full slab of ribs. They were tender, juicy, and moist. Meat fell off the bone and no need to hand-hold them high. The craft draft beer choices were nice, a dozen or so. My wife had the parmesan crusted cod and it was good as well. We split the chopp salad. Now my places for chopp salad include L Woods. Nice rustic cabin lodge look and feel. Lots of taxidermy fish. First timers get a free flatbread which was a nice surprise for me.Special Features:

- Great serviceGroovyTravellerVIPDined on 9/12/2014Been a while since we were at L.Woods. Waitress was excellent. Food very goodSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- madame1971VIPDined on 9/12/2014As usual, dinner at L Woods was delicious and the service was perfect. We had the white fish and ribs and all were wonderful. The kitchen split our meals for us, so we didn't have to split our food at the table. Our waiter was friendly and very knowledgeable. This is why we keep on coming back!!Special Features:
- Consistently excellent!DinerBewareVIPDined on 9/12/2014This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants and I dine it alot! The quality of the food is ALWAYS, without exception, prepared exactly as you request. The service also is wonderful! Always, an excellent dining experience!! I come here often!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good food and comfortableOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 9/11/2014Just one of those comfortable places with good food and good service. We weren't rushed and the noise level allows for easy conversation. I wish their wine list was a little better but overall a very good experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- L. Woods ComfortablecrizDined on 9/10/2014I love this restaurant, especially the room with the knotty pine. I feel like I'm in a Wisconsin cabin. I have never had a bad meal at this restaurant! Anything you order will be first rate. You do have to request bread now, as this was not the case in the past. Service is excellent!Special Features:
- Not what we expectedteacherDined on 9/8/2014Given that this is a Lettuce Entertain You restaurant we expected better. We were seated right away, but we had to flag down our server after sitting for over 10 minutes. He did not ask for our drink order, but instead just took our dinner order. From the time we sat down until the time we got our entrees over an hour had elapsed. The food was very average. I am gluten free, and the chicken dish I got consisted of two tasteless chicken breasts with some bland lemon butter sauce. My son's turkey burger was over spiced, and my wife's salad was very bland, too. We had mentioned the need for a gluten free menu on Open Table, we had to ask for one. We also mentioned it was my birthday. No mention was made by the host or server.
- Always GoodJojo20VIPDined on 9/8/2014L Woods is always consistently good. The food is always tasty. Their specials are very good. Their appetizers and desserts are very good. They have everything from sandwiches to full dinners. The service is always attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is very lively.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/6/2014Excellent food. Felt like I was in a Northern Wisconsin suupper club.Special Features:
- Reliable L WoodsnotafoodieDined on 9/6/2014L Woods is a restaurant you keep coming back to because of the consistently good food, good service, and good atmosphere. We have never had a bad experience. The range of items on the menu is great. You can eat light or have a big meal. We love the Chopped Salad and Flatbread Pizzas. The burgers are tasty as well. The deserts are very good. Be sure to order them with your meal so they are ready when you are finished with dinner.Special Features:
- BBQluvLEYEVIPDined on 9/6/2014We both enjoy the ribs, baby back and beef ribs. Our previous visit we tried the apple strudel dessert (must order with your meal) and we weren't thrilled, thought the crust should have been very flaky but seemed a little tough. This time we tried the chocolate cake with molten center (also must order with your meal) and we enjoyed the cake. Much bigger than we expected. We returned for the ribs, enjoy the beer list and several unique cocktails. It's very casual and quite loud, as long as you know what to expect! We would probably go back and try the brisket special (I think that was Tuesday). Both recent visits we had very good service.Special Features:
- Consistently great foodJuzeeDined on 9/6/2014WE often dine here with the kids. Always great service - especially from Jim. Most meals are locally sourced - a bonus. Specials are consistent hits, particularly the Sat night Prime Rib. Drawback -- cooks are generous with their salt shakers. We've made this place a regular since they opened (pre-kids), now our 4 kids love it too.Special Features:
- DhanaVIPDined on 9/4/2014Great server -Dameon. Chopped steak is a real deal @$15.99.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointmentDrJAFDined on 9/3/2014I have eaten here often over the years. This was my first disappointment. Water glass was never refilled. Never offered a coffee refill. My fish came cold and dry.
- Great lunchCityGirlDined on 9/2/2014We had a fabulous family lunch here yesterday. Five people were in our group. We wanted a leisurely lunch and our server never rushed us. She understood and respected our wishes. Chopped salad and creamed spinach were amazing. Pounded chicken was also fabulous!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great timeStevePVIPDined on 9/1/2014Outstanding service and great food. I highly recommend but you must get a reservation.Special Features:
- Attentive serviceCrabGourmetVIPDined on 9/1/2014Fresh seafood. Great seasonal specials. Excellent desserts, especially with fresh fruit. They will accommodate special food requests. Great managers. Today's waiter went out of his way to be helpful. Definitely above average. Overall this restaurant is fancier than the Wisconsin supper clubs with a larger food variety. I do not think there is another restaurant in Chicago area that currently compares to what this restaurant offers.Special Features:
- Solid Lettuce JointLettuceFanVIPDined on 8/31/2014its not always easy to get into L. Woods because it's probably the most fun and best food around that area. They did a nice job of mimicking an old Wisconsin Supper Club inside. (it even has that old lodge musty smell, something that sparks a lot of great memories for me.) Favorites apps: Cheese curds (Duh) Walleye Chips. For dinner, The ribs (both kinds of pork and the beef) are pretty amazing but I think their bbq chicken really stands out. (I ordered it the first time because I walked through the dining room and saw at least a 8 people eating it.) For dessert: Great key lime pie. (Similar to sister restaurants like Joe's & Shaw') and the hot brownie sundae. If you're a junkie for Melman joints, its not to be missed.Special Features:
- Super Supper ClubSuzyQDined on 8/30/2014I love L Woods for the atmosphere and good food. It's very cozy even though it's usually packed. I've been there on two occasions. The first time we had the rib eye steak and the BBQ ribs. Both were very tasty. This time I ordered the Prime Rib which was the Saturday night special. My dining companion had the ribs. Again, they were both very good. I will definitely be returning to L WoodsSpecial Features:
- bunnies94VIPDined on 8/30/2014Our experience was good. Server was a little pre-occupied and non-attentive, choosing to clear off another table while we waited for our salad dressing to be brought to the table.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dual anniversary OuttingJandJDined on 8/30/2014We were pleasantly surprised having never been there before. It was our 39th anniversary, and a couple of weeks after our friend's 39th as well. We always celebrate together each year. The hostess, Stacie, was marvelous. She knew it was the anniversaries and set aside a cozy booth. She said it was her favorite. The waiter, Martin, was great. Before our friends arrived we ordered two martinis, great! The dinner was great as well, 3 prime rib and one salmon. The mashed potatoes, to die for. Horse radish a good touch. There was a surprise anniversary dessert which was really nice too. All and all, it was a great evening and we will do it again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointingOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 8/29/2014Food was fair, service was slow and less than attentive. The restaurant has a gluten free menu, but the server was very uneducated on what gluten even is. A five minute explanation and a server would know a baked potato does not contain gluten. Clearly, management hasn't put in the effort to train staff on this dietary need, however has put the effort into marketing to the gluten free. I ordered the filet mignon, which was supposed to include sautéed mushrooms - no mushrooms, unappetizing less than stellar cut of meat seasoned only with salt and pepper. They shouldn't offer a GF menu if they can't make it work well for GF customers. For $27.99, thats pretty shameful.
- GreatPinkyVIPDined on 8/29/2014We always enjoy eating here the food is delicious. The waiters. Were very efficient an pleasant. The bar was good too, an the drinks were great. We definitly will return in the near future.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Colorful Ceiling Fans | Discounts and Low Prices
Add Excitement with Ceiling Fans in Primary Colors
In grammar school, everyone learns the three primary colors — red, blue, and yellow — that can be mixed together to form every other color of the spectrum.

To make a room both functional and beautiful, many will want to choose one of the many primary colors 52 Minka fans available for ceiling installation.
Whether one chooses red ceiling fans, blue ceiling fans, or yellow ceiling fans, primary color fans are one of the best ways to add a pop of color to any decorating scheme. For instance, a room with gray walls might seem relaxing, yet it will be somewhat drab without the addition of color. This is easily done with the appropriate ceiling fan. When decorating such a room and choosing from the many available primary colors ceiling fans, red is an excellent option. As many decorating experts will confess, red complements the color gray quite well. Hunter Fantasy Flyer ceiling fan is a guranteed focal point with a its blue plane body.
Primary colors fans can be used in any room in the home, but many homeowners choose them when they design a nursery or other space for young children. In addition to the basic primary colors fans that have been mentioned above, parents may also want to choose fans that are made with the secondary colors that are derived from mixing the primary colors together. Orange ceiling fans and green ceiling fans are both excellent choices, for instance.
Homeowners and decorators who cannot decide on one color should also know that there are ceiling fans available that have a multitude of hues. There are some primary colors fans, for example, that look like a rainbow because they are colored with all the primary colors. Whatever color is selected, however, primary colors fans are sure to make the home beautiful.

GARY | A stint at U.S. Steel Gary Works helped Ed Asner support himself early in his career, the actor said during a master class for local drama students Tuesday at West Side Theater.
"I worked at open hearth No. 1. How can I hold a master class in acting? No way," he said.
Seated in an armchair surrounded by students from local high schools and universities, the award-winning actor answered questions and critiqued students' work in an intimate setting onstage at the theater at West Side High School.
The audience quizzed Asner on topics ranging from how to handle rejection — "Go on no matter what (critics) say, full speed ahead" — to the pros and cons of voice-over roles — "It's all acting."
Students overcame jitters to deliver onstage monologues and were treated to Asner's gruff humor and spare, but genuine, praise.
"No matter how much we hate you, we'll at least understand you," he said, imploring one young actress to improve her diction.
Her performance was rewarded with an admiring, "You got there," from Asner.
Asner said he'd held similar classes in Los Angeles and other major cities but came away impressed with what he saw in Gary.
"The level of your talent, of your performances, is Uptown," he said.
Helen Campbell, an Indiana University Northwest junior and theater major, said she hoped Asner's critique would help her reach her ultimate goal.
"I want to do this professionally," she said. "I want to do this the rest of my life."
Asner's stay in Gary on Tuesday included a planned evening performance of his one-man show "FDR" at the pavilion at Marquette Park in Gary.
His work years earlier in the steel mill ended when he found a better-paying job in an auto plant, before eventually finding work as an actor.
The Kansas City, Mo., native said he'd fallen in love with acting, and a girl, while a student at the University of Chicago. Asner and the girl broke up, but he and acting never did, he said.

Hey, have you heard that Taylor Swift is dating 20-year-old pro surfer John John Florence ? Well, if you did, forget about it...it's not true.
As E! Online reports, two weeks ago, an Australian TV reporter asked the Hawaiian-born Florence if something was going on between him and 23-year-old Taylor. He responded , "Yeah, you know, it's kind of a secret thing going on right now. Can't bust it out in the public just yet." The rumor went that Taylor had reached out to Florence, and the two were exchanging text messages and growing closer by the day. However, it's just that: a rumor.
A source tells E! Online, "There is no truth to this at all," adding, "Taylor is not dating -- or texting -- this guy."
It wouldn't make much sense for Taylor to be starting a relationship now anyway, considering the fact that she just launched her RED tour, which will keep her on the road for months. And besides, isn't she supposed to be involved with her opening act, Ed Sheeran ? Oh, wait -- that's not true, either.
