Shortly after announcing that the Converj Concept was giving birth to a production version called the "ELR" , Cadillac went to the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance and unveiled their newest concept car, the Ciel.
Pronounced as "C-L", which translates to 'sky' in French, the Ciel is a four-seat convertible tourer that completely blows the lid off of Cadillac's new design language, taking it to a level that we've never seen before.
As a brand that built its name on the popularity of its old-school grandeur, Cadillac is returning to that game plan while adding modern-day luxury to the mix. The Ciel is the epitome of a large and expressive luxury car that suggests how Cadillac's rich history can sync perfectly well authentic luxury and high-end technology of today's time.
"Large, expressive luxury is innate to Cadillac and the Ciel recalls that heritage, while suggesting where the brand can go in the future," said Clay Dean, global design director for Cadillac.
"Authentic luxury is driven by experiences, not just products, and Ciel is about the experience of the journey."
UPDATE 09/07/11: Cadillac's return to prominence comes as a result of an aggressive approach by GM to revamp the entire line-up and return it back to its stature as the premier American luxury brand. In line with the development of a new production flagship car, Cadillac may have its sights set on green lighting the recently-launched Ciel Concept. While nothing is official as of yet, we believe that a production version of the Ciel is all but certain. The more important question is how is it going to be packaged relative to what the concept car looks like. Hopefully, we'll have some answers sooner than later.
Find out more about the Cadillac Ciel Concept after the jump.
In its attempt to bring back the glory days of Cadillac luxury, General Motors designed the Ciel Concept to emulate the great touring cars of the past while combining it with a modern flair that projects Cadillac's vision for the future.
With a long, low proportion that features French-style doors and rear doors hinged at the rear, the B-pillar-less Ciel Concept is the evocation of a modern-day classic. The fender lines run the entire length of the car with nickel-plated bright work serving as accents to the car's body lines, enhancing the overall look while paying homage to Cadillac's glorious roots.
Cadillac dressed up the Ciel in a special paint color - Cabernet - that's reserved only for the concept car and was inspired by the "rich translucence of a glass of red wine held up to the sunlight." The windshield frame, together with the shield grille, and the vertical lighting elements, are all Cadillac originals. The aforementioned frame also serves the purpose of providing an important structural and aesthetic element to the car. As for the vertical lighting set-up, the headlamps and taillamps all feature LED lighting that include a daytime running light graphic on the front end of the car.
The car rides on a set of beautifully finished 22" wheels with brushed nickel plating over milled billet aluminum with carbon ceramic brake rotors behind it.
Back when open-air grand-touring cars were the perfect highway joyride partner, Cadillac is bringing it back with a modern interpretation that epitomizes the perfect bridging of timeless metamorphosis.
Where most concept vehicles usually go the route of futuristic design set-ups, the Cadillac Ciel takes a different route, opting for an interior that highlights simplicity, authenticity and spaciousness.
"With the Ciel, the journey is the thing, so the interior is a place of uncompromising comfort and elegance, with technology that only makes the journey more enjoyable," said Gael Buzyn, the Ciel's interior design manager. "Simplicity and lightness ensure nothing distracts from the open driving experience, while the color and materials lend the feeling that the vehicle's environment blends with the surroundings."
The defining element of the Ciel's interior is the prevalent use of Italian Olive wood on the doors, instrument panel, console, and the front seatbacks. As a premium, yet sustainable material, Italian Olive wood comes from a single fallen and recycled tree from a west coast producer of premium olive oil that was painstakingly prepared before it was cut for the concept vehicle.
The Italian Olive wood evokes warmth and craftsmanship, especially for those customers that appreciate the art of old-world techniques. Similar to the exterior, the passenger space of the Ciel is accented with sweeping nickel-plated trim, dividing the body-color upper sections from a complementing beige lower color.
As for the design of the Ciel's back seat, it's got plenty of elegant and luxurious touches, including a wood trim in the rear center console that opens to reveal a small humidor. This humidor conveniently comes with a set of expensive cigars. There's also a pull-able leather tab on the rear sets that stores a cashmere blanket, providing enough warmth for those looking to stretch their legs.
The center console runs from the instrument panel to the rear of the interior, effectively separating each passenger from the other and thus creating personal space. The panel features a minimalist gauge cluster that serves as the personification of Cadillac's attention to details and its priority on authentic materials.
Each of the seats have their own cooling and heating features to go with a special drawer that includes, among other things, sun lotion, sun glasses, towels, and aromatherapy.
Ambient lighting on the armrests are also available for the romantic nighttime drives, as are transparent gauges that come in a detailed, brushed-aluminum housing that has the intricate depth of a high-quality chronograph.
With all the fascinating design elements of the Cadillac Ciel, it's still important to note the powertrain housed under its hood. In this case, the Ciel comes with a GM-sourced 3.6-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 engine with direction that produces an output of 425 horsepower and augmented by a hybrid system using lithium-ion batteries.
Will It Be Produced?
Cadillac has not announced if the car is headed for a production designation, but considering the elaborate detail that went in building this concept, we'd be surprised if the American automaker pushes for a road version anytime soon.
That being said, you still can't take anything away from this one-top, luxury grand tourer. It's the perfect example of old classics having a place in today's world if the people behind it know what they're doing. And from the looks of things, Cadillac scored big time with the Ciel Concept.
- Aesthetic design is W-O-W
- Powerful engine
- Luxury amenities are top-of-the-line
- No word on production
- Even if production was green-lighted, many of the features would not transfer over

The bombings that killed 45 people in the communally sensitive city of Ahmedabad have shaken India's establishment. It is now sinking in that India faces homegrown Islamist militant groups operating with a scale and sophistication unheard of in
previous years.
A group called "India Mujahideen" claimed responsibility for the attacks, the same group that said it carried out the bombings in Jaipur in May that killed 63 people.
For years, India had been seen as country that had largely rejected the attractions of global militancy spurred on by wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. U.S. President George W. Bush notably said there were no Indians in al Qaeda.
But mainly Hindu India is home to one of the world's biggest Muslim populations, around 13 percent of its 1.1 billion people.
It only takes 0.0001 percent of India's roughly 150 million Muslims to form a nucleus of 15,000 militants, as Uday Bhaskar, former director of New Delhi's Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses, told me.

LANSING (WKZO) -- Education advocacy group StudentsFirst ranks Michigan in the top ten nationally in its policy report card.
The report gives the state high marks for its teacher evaluation system and allowing districts to contract out services to save money. However, it doesn't fair well for school choice and charter school funding.
The report recommends the state establish an A to F report card system to help parents and policymakers evaluate school performance. It says the current color-coded system is confusing.

So often we get caught up in the titles we have been given in our life; best athlete, honor student, top performer…the list can and will go on. As we reach adulthood we strive for even more; Manager, Director, COO, CEO, Chairman. What is it about these titles that we strive to have? The feeling of importance? There is something common with all of those titles, they were GIVEN to you…what is a title you have GIVEN yourself? My titles: birth mother, wife, mommy, children's book author, friend. If you think about it, the titles you give yourself hold the most meaning…they will follow you beyond your athletic years, beyond your college studies, beyond your career and beyond your paycheck.
Your title says a lot about you and your heart. I am proud of each of my titles, they tell my story without a story.
What is your title?

Taylor Frazier loves to follow people on Twitter.
Taylor Frazier, Tweeter: "I follow a pigeon, he's always perching on things. I follow a bear. I don't know what he is to be honest. But, he just says the same thing over and over again."
Frazier tweets 140 characters at a stretch.
Frazier: "I Tweet 9 million times a day and Tweet about everything. I Tweet about my job, or my friends. It's better than text messaging kind of..."
Frazier says don't Tweet about coworkers, or your job.
Frazier: "And, to my face my coworker was very polite, but she forgot we followed each other on Twitter and started blasting me. And, I was like, 'can you say two-faced?"
Those who Tweet for their business, like Kenny Adams, say don't spam your followers and stick to the 140-character limit.
Kenny Adams, uses Twitter for work: "You know, if people are out there trying to write a paper, on a specific topic, and you are just clogging up a stream, that's not what Twitter is for. Go post it on Facebook, or blog, and then Tweet the link so people can see your full post."
Tuttie Ross, Twitter user: "I unfollow people that retweet. I unfollow celebrities because I don't want my Twitter line filled with retweets."
Twitter is about creating a conversation. Experts say add value when you post, retweet interesting posts, and avoid profanity.
Adams: "Getting too personal, honestly, not everyone needs to know you are going to the bathroom."
Ross: "I go by your Twitter name. If your Twitter name is out of control, I won't follow you."
Frazier: "Don't put people's names, don't bring your drama, like work drama, employers will see that and you suffer the repercussions. Just keep it classy."
And if you want to keep a conversation private, use the direct messaging feature.
You can also protect your Tweets so that not everyone can view them, and you can block spammers or unfollow them.

APPLE (Accredited Professional Preschool Learning Environment) is a national early learning program accreditation. With over 900 accredited programs and many more engaged in the process, APPLE is one of the largest accrediting programs for early learning centers. In Florida, APPLE is accepted as one of Florida's Gold Seal Quality programs. The Gold Seal program provides additional benefits including: ad valorem tax relief, a sales tax exemption on supplies and materials, and an increase in reimbursement for subsidized care. The best benefit is giving your parents the confidence that the care of their children is at an APPLE accredited center.
APPLE is designed to work well for all types of facilities, small centers, privately owned, faith-based, or corporate programs. Studies show the positive effects of high-quality early learning centers on the physical, cognitive, linguistic, social, and emotional outcomes of young children. The APPLE program will raise your center to a level of quality that will enable you to better serve the children and their families.
APPLE was developed by owners and operators of early learning centers, and is grounded in the unique perspective of the business of childcare. The owner/management team has the greatest impact on the quality of any early learning center, and the developers of the APPLE program recognized the importance of balancing the standards to improve quality and the financial impact it may have on the children and families served.
Get Started Today
Getting started is easy. To begin the APPLE accreditation process submit the APPLE application and download the self-study manual. The self-study is a time for reflection and improvement that requires the development of a portfolio of documentation of best practices. The portfolio is submitted to the APPLE program office electronically, indicating readiness for verification. The portfolio is reviewed in the APPLE office and if found to be in compliance with the accreditation standards moves into the verification phase.
Portfolios must be submitted electronically beginning August 1st, 2013.
The APPLE Commission is the final authority to render the accreditation decision after a thorough review of all documentation.
Advanced APPLE is an appropriate track for accreditation for those early learning centers that have high quality standards in place to successfully move through the APPLE accreditation process in an accelerated manner. The decision to select the Advanced APPLE track is made after a center reviews the APPLE manual and all accreditation requirements. The self-study portfolio will still need to be completed; however, it is NOT sent to the APPLE program office. The manual remains on site at the center for the verifier's review. The center indicates readiness for the verification visit by submitting the Attestation of Readiness to the APPLE program office.
The verification visit will be conducted within 45 business days of the receipt of the Attestation of Readiness. Advanced APPLE is NOT a guarantee that a center will be granted accreditation. The same standards apply to Advanced APPLE, and accreditation is awarded based on the review of the center's portfolio and verification visit. Each center must determine if the accelerated program or the traditional APPLE track is appropriate.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions regarding the traditional or Advanced APPLE accreditation process.

Temporal range: Middle–Late Jurassic, 162–150Ma
|L. ferox skeleton
|Scientific classification
Sauvage, 1873
L. ferox Sauvage, 1873 (type)
Ischyrodon ferox
Liopleurodon (/ˌlaɪ.ɵˈplʊərədɒn/; meaning 'smooth-sided teeth') is a genus of large, carnivorous marine reptile belonging to the Pliosauroidea, a clade of short-necked plesiosaurs. The two species of Liopleurodon lived during the Callovian stage of the Middle Jurassic Period (c. 160 to 155 mya). It was the apex predator of the Middle to Late Jurassic seas that covered Europe. The largest species, L. ferox, is estimated to have grown up to 6.39 meters (21.0 feet) in length.[1]
The name "Liopleurodon" (meaning "smooth-sided tooth") derives from Greek words: λεῖος [leios], "smooth"; pleurá, side or rib; and odṓn, tooth.
Discovery and species[edit]
The genus name Liopleurodon was coined by Henri Émile Sauvage in 1873 on the basis of very poor remains consisting of three 70 millimeter (2¾ inch) teeth. One tooth, found near Boulogne-sur-Mer, France in layers dating from the Callovian, was named Liopleurodon ferox, another from Charly, France was named Liopleurodon grossouvrei, while a third discovered near Caen, France was originally described as Poikilopleuron bucklandi and ascribed by Sauvage to the species Liopleurodon bucklandi. Sauvage did not ascribe the genus to any particular group of reptiles in his descriptions.[2]
Liopleurodon fossils have been found mainly in England and France, with one younger species known from Russia. Fossil specimens that are contemporary (Callovian) with those from England and France referrable to Liopleurodon are known from Germany.[3]
Currently, there are two recognized species within Liopleurodon. From the Callovian of England and France L. ferox is well known; while also from the Callovian of England is the rarer L. pachydeirus, described by Seeley as a Pliosaurus (1869).[4] Only L. ferox is known from more or less complete skeletons.
Four strong paddle-like limbs suggest that Liopleurodon was a powerful swimmer. Its four-flipper mode of propulsion is characteristic of all plesiosaurs. A study involving a swimming robot has demonstrated that although this form of propulsion is not especially efficient, it provides very good acceleration - a desirable trait in an ambush predator.[5][6] Studies of the skull have shown that it could probably scan the water with its nostrils to ascertain the source of certain smells.[7]
Estimating the maximum size of Liopleurodon has become a controversial subject. The largest specimens suggest a maximum size of 7 meters (23 feet), making it the largest of the short necked pliosaurs. The palaeontologist L. B. Tarlo suggested that the total body length of a pliosaur (including Liopleurodon) can be estimated from its skull length. Tarlo claimed that the skull of a pliosaur is typically about one-seventh of the total body length. The largest known skull belonging to L. ferox is 1.54 metres (5.1 ft) long.[8] According to Tarlo's hypothesis, this specimen would be around 10.5 metres (34 ft) long. However, the case of Kronosaurus exposed some uncertainty about the accuracy of Tarlo's suggestion.[9]
New research on pliosaur anatomy has cast doubt on Tarlo's hypothesis for estimating the size of pliosaurs and revealed that pliosaur skulls were typically about one-fifth of the total body length. An exceptionally well-preserved skeleton of L. ferox is on display in the Institut und Museum für Geologie und Paläontologie der Universität Tübingen in Germany. This specimen is around 4.5 metres (15 ft) long.[10] Fossil remains of another specimen identified as L. ferox have been excavated from an Oxford Clay formation near Peterborough. This specimen has been estimated to be 6.39 metres (21.0 ft) in length with a skull length of about 1.26 metres (4.1 ft) and is regarded as an adult individual.[1] According to Richard Forrest an adult L. ferox would have ranged between 5 to 7 metres (16 to 23 ft) long.[9]
Some fossil remains excavated from the Kimmeridge Clay formation in England indicate a much larger taxon, possibly up to 15 metres (49 ft) long. However, these have not been assigned to the genus Liopleurodon.[9]
A partial specimen of a jaw mandible measuring 2.875 metres (9.43 ft) is on display in the Oxford University Museum of Natural History: it is estimated that the total length of the jaw is in excess of 3 metres (9.8 ft). The specimen was originally assigned to the genus Stretosaurus (as Stretosaurus macromerus).[11] Stretosaurus later became a junior synonym of Liopleurodon.[12] However, it was later re-classified as Pliosaurus macromerus.[13]
In 1999, Liopleurodon was featured in an episode of the BBC television series Walking with Dinosaurs, which depicted it as an enormous 25 m (82 ft) long animal. However, this is considered to be an exaggeration for Liopleurodon.[9] The error persisted in the 2003 spin-off Sea Monsters.
Liopleurodon belongs to the family Pliosauridae, a clade within Plesiosauria, known from the Jurassic (maybe also from the Cretaceous) of Europe and North America.[14]
Liopleurodon was one of the basal taxa from the Middle Jurassic. Differences between these taxa and their relatives from the Upper Jurassic include alveoli count, smaller skull and smaller body size.[8]
An analysis in 2013 classifies Liopleurodon, Simolestes, Peloneustes, Pliosaurus and Brachaucheininae as Thalassophonea.[15]
The cladogram below follows a 2011 analysis by paleontologists Hilary F. Ketchum and Roger B. J. Benson, and reduced to genera only.[16]

January 5, 1979 r Salary update ; iudge orders release of public by Beverly Taggart Staff reporter Third Judicial District Court Judge G. Howell Taylor ordered Weber State College to release personally identifiable salary information to the Signpost. In a hearing before the Law and Motion Division on December 11, the Attorney General's office moved to dismiss the suit brought by Signpost Editor John Redding. The motion was denied. John Preston Creer and Kent B. Scott, representing Redding, moved to have a Judgment on the Pleadings and also a Restraining Order against the State Records Committee from holding its scheduled public hearing last December 21. Judge Taylor granted both motions. Survey results released WSC News Bureau More students are attending Weber State College in pursuit of a higher standard of living than the pursuit of knowledge, ac cording to a student survey. Alan Bybee, administrative vice-president of the WSC student body, conducted a survey in which questionnaires were returned by 304 students, of whom 86 were married. One finding was that 57 percent of those returning the questionnaires said they were attending college to prepare for a better job. Only 37 percent said they were in college to become more knowledgable. About 52 percent said they attended WSC activities some times, another 30 percent said they did so frequently, and 6 percent said they almost always did. Principal reason given for non-attendance was a simple "I have other interests." Only 2 percent said they didn't like the activities.Of those who do attend, 28 percent said they did so because they found enjoyment; 21 percent to meet people, and 26 percent because they wanted to do in WVIxt Welcome information In his remarks, Judge Taylor said that since his salary was public information and the people had access to it, so should the salaries of Weber State College employees. In arguments, Creer indicated that there "was no valid reason to withhold salary information for any one class of public employees. Public school teachers, judges, and all other public employees' salaries are open to public inspection," he noted. "There is no provision of Utah law allowing for withholding of such salary information of Weber State College professors from public inspection. The opening of these records is long overdue," Preston added. Weber State College legal counsel Brinton Burbidge argued that releasing the information teresting things. More than half-54 percent-said they did not have an academic adviser, while of the 46 percent who did, 49 percent said they consulted the adviser sometimes, 31 percent frequently, and only 7 percent "always" consulted the adviser. Dr. Dello Dayton, vice president for academic affairs, said students are assigned a regular adviser when they make a choice of a major. To those who do not have an assigned adviser, academic departments and the counseling service are available. Divorce group The Divorce Group sponsored by the Counseling Center will meet at 1 Monday in the basement of the library, room 10. Also sponsored by the Con-seling Center, the Eliminating Self-defeating Behavior Group will meet Wednesdays at 1 and Thursdays at 5 in the same room. Other times can be arranged, according to Mary Jo Latulippe. For further questions, call her at 626-6406. State College, Ogilen, Utah 'constitutes an unwarranted and unconstitutional invasion of the privacy rights of persons employed by Weber State College. Last Wednesday, Judge Taylor , signed the order instructing the college to release the information. A spokesperson from the school said President Brady has not yet received the or-der.and until he dies, the college will not make a decision on whether to appeal or comply. The State Records Committee classified state employees' salaries as public information in July 1977. The Signpost requested a list of salaries from the college last March, and the school refused to comply. Redding filed suit against the college and Records Committee last November. rirl II in Weber State College is one of four schools serving as pilot institutions in the utlitzation of a $43,000 federal grant to improve the quality of instruction in colleges and universities. Dr. John LaTrielle, director of instructional development at WSC, said the other schools in "pilot" roles are Utah State University, Idaho State University, and Boise State College. An additional nine schools in the states of Idaho, Montana and Utah are also involved in the utilization of the grant. The idea of putting together the Northern Rockies Consortium for High Education originated with WSC and USU, the only two of the 13 schools which have had strong instructional improvement facilities. L - "V- WHJKK STATE College campus ordered the retention pond to be dorks mav ...ake the endangered lowered. The ducks may he eaten ..peries list after President Brady alive hy dos. Quack down on WSC safety hazard by Beverly Taggart Staff reporter "As much as I love ducks, I would rather have children than ducks," said President Rodney Brady. Persons on campus have recently complained concerning the safety and welfare of the ducks that reside in the retention pond on campus. Last week, a Utah Transit Authority bus driver pulled a child from the pond after the young boy slipped on the ice and fell in the water, President Brady then ordered the water level of the pond to be lowered. "My main concern," remarked one student, "is providing some protection for the ducks so dogs can't get at them and kill them." Director of Auxilliary Services Robert Ladd said the dog problem is real. "We have to find a happy medium for both children and ducks," Ladd noted. "There is not enough in the pond now to protect the ducks from the dogs, but yet we have to keep the water level low enough to protect young children." Ladd said he was concerned about the problem but President Brady told the school to "get the water out of the pond." He noted that children go down to the pond 'J . tic- to look at the ducks. Ladd said the animals are well fed. "We just purchased 200 lbs. of grain for the ducks, and they are being fed every day." J. Robert Folsom, director of campus planning, said the pond has an average depth of only 12 inches, sloping from six inches at the edges to around 18 inches elsewhere. However, there are a couple of places where the water may be close to four feet deep.

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

The FedEx and UPS Holiday Mystery
Michael is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
December 10 was the busiest day of the year for FedEx (NYSE: FDX), who shipped 19 million packages in that one day alone. It's the holiday season for shipping companies too, and with online shopping at all time highs, does the season look to be jolly for FedEx and UPS (NYSE: UPS)?
You would think that these unbelievably high volumes of packages would send both companies' stocks through the roof. To be honest, neither earnings nor stock price tend to do any sort of special stock jumps in the holiday season. It surprises me too, but there is method to the madness.
The reason is that typical ground shipping is actually a relatively small percentage of the revenue of these companies, compared to what you make think. Where these companies revenue really does come from is both international and business shipping. So, even with ground shipping volumes at yearly highs, business to business shipping, one of their main revenue sources, actually decreases during the holidays.
The other main killer is on a much more global scale: where FedEx and UPS really bring home the bacon is with international shipments. Countries like China and continents like Europe are responsible for so much international shipping, and that is where these companies truly profit. However, with economic issues in both Europe and China, two of the biggest markets for international shipping, volume is far lower than FedEx and UPS had hoped for.
Fuel prices going up also hurts the profitability from both FedEx and UPS ground services, but especially international shipping. Jet fuel costs rising have increased costs dramatically, resulting in higher expenses for consumers, who, as a result, don't ship as much, or maybe ship at a less expensive rate and take the hit of waiting an extra day or too.
A similar phenomenon is hitting the business to business shipping sector, where business that are eager to cut costs to seek profitability in such a tough economic time decide that maybe they can afford to wait an extra few days and say no to overnight or 2-day shipping. Such decisions are decreasing fast-shipping volume.
One option often thrown around during the holidays is the ever-perplexing question: why can't these companies do same day shipping? They have trucks driving up and down your neighborhood every day, so why can't they deliver on the same day, especially in metropolitan areas? Honestly, these shipping giants just don't have the infrastructure to make this realistic. Although, an experimental new launch by eBay (NASDAQ: EBAY) called eBay Now actually provides same day shipping to customers. eBay pays people to sit and wait until customers make purchases, at which point these waiting people essentially go out and buy the product at a local store and deliver it to the buyer. It is a very new service, although, unsurprisingly, there is lots of skepticism.
So, even though FedEx and UPS ground are actually thriving this holiday season, the real answer for why these stocks aren't popping is because of decreased business to business and international shipping. And, while these issues continue, don't count on FedEx or UPS to bring in dramatic results for you or your portfolio.

Limp Bizkit is overdue for a new album. The band's last studio release was way back in 2011, and last year Limp Bizkit promised fans a new CD in January 2014, which has come and gone without the arrival of Stampede of the Disco Elephants -- the supposed name of the missing album.
Where's the music? No one but the Limp Bizkit guys know for sure, but we may see video -- either in TV or film form -- before we see an album. At the Billboard Music Awards this past Sunday night, Bizkit singer Fred Durst said that he has a deal in place with Showtime for a "pilot script on a show that I created." Though Durst didn't reveal the subject matter, he did say that his head is very "focused" and that he's most "looking forward to making features."
When asked specifically about a film deal, Durst said it was "a little premature" to announce the details but that he's "in the process of marking up the [contracts] right now" on a film project that "I've been waiting on for a very long time, and working on for a very long time."
Durst has been linked to various film and TV projects over the last decade, including directing two feature films, 2007's The Education of Charlie Banks and 2008's The Longshots , and making appearances on Fox's House and the 2005 NBC miniseries Revelations .
Limp Bizkit fans in need of a music fix, there is some good news: while not mentioning Stampede of the Disco Elephants , Fred Durst did say that he just finished a solo album that sounds "like a male Mazzy Star ."
Stay tuned on all Limp Bizkit fronts.

HOBART | Hobart Mayor Brian Snedecor has narrowed a long list of potential police chief candidates down to three.
"I hope to name a new chief by the end of the week or by early next week," Snedecor said.
In the meantime, Lt. Vance Thompson will continue to serve as the interim police chief, Snedecor said.
"I still need more time. I don't want to rush it. The current administration is holding down the fort," Snedecor said.
Two of the three finalists are Hobart officers Lt. David Grissom and Sgt. Rick Zormier.
Snedecor declined to name the third candidate, a veteran police officer for the Gary Police Department.
"Right now I'm tying up some loose ends so I have a firm foundation of what I'm bringing to the table. All three could do the job," Snedecor said.
Thompson, who served as deputy chief of police, was named interim police chief Jan. 17 by Snedecor to replace former Police Chief Jeff White, who resigned Jan. 15.
Snedecor said he received resumes from 12 to 15 applicants interested in serving as Hobart's police chief.
Thompson was not one of the applicants and was not interested in interviewing for the job, Snedecor said.
Snedecor said he has hired a consultant to work with him during the selection process.
Snedecor has denied there was any disagreement between him and White that led to the resignation.
He called White's resignation a "mutual thing."
White, a 20-year Police Department veteran, was sworn in as the new police chief March 6.
White declined to comment on his resignation as chief.
White replaced former Police Chief David Evans, who stepped down Feb. 23, 2012, following an agreement between him and the mayor.
Evans had replaced former Police Chief Rod Gonzalez, who stepped down March 19, 2010, citing personal reasons.

California crisis means $4 gas for a while
Refinery problems and speculative bets keep pressure on pumps nationwide.
Gas prices in California rose as much as 20 cents per gallon between Thursday night and Friday morning, and the state's fuel shortage is just one reason U.S. gas prices will flirt with $4 for a while.
The average price of a gallon of regular gasoline in California is nearly $4.49, according to the AAA Daily Fuel Gauge Report. That's the highest in the country and far exceeds the roughly $3.89-a-gallon national average reported by the Energy Information Administration -- still a record for this time of year.
If you own an Exxon-Mobil (XOM) station near San Francisco, your prices are likely closer to $4.60. Even high-volume Costco (COST) gas stations can't offer any relief, as the Los Angeles Times reported that the big-box retailer had to shut down some of its pumps.
"We do not know when we will be resupplied," read a sign at one Southern California Costco, according to the Times.
In some areas of the car-happy state, prices have jumped 40 cents in a week as refinery problems have created shortages and helped send wholesale prices soaring. Among the recent disruptions, an Aug. 6 fire at a Chevron (CVX) refinery in Richmond has one of the region's largest refineries producing at reduced capacity. A power failure in Southern California has affected an Exxon Mobil refinery, and a Chevron pipeline that moves crude to Northern California also was shut down.
While all of the above is putting pressure on California pumps, other forces far beyond the state's borders are fueling price increases and a sticky nationwide slide from $4 a gallon. There hasn't been a refinery built in the U.S. since 1976, which means each time one goes offline for a bit or shuts down, the gap between crude oil and gasoline supplies widens. Commodities brokers know this all too well and are starting to place huge bets on commodities futures as peak winter heating demand nears.
As noted by Fortune, a recently released United Nations report explicitly states that the "financialization" of commodities markets -- "hundreds of billions of dollars of bets placed on expectations of temporarily rising prices" for energy, food and other goods -- is the "root cause" of elevated prices. That's right, a bunch of folks sitting at home barking orders to traders as if it were a scene from "Trading Places" helped boost gasoline prices, which in turn pushed this summer's global oil prices 65% higher than the averages reached during the commodity price boom of 2003 to 2008.
"Investors treat commodities as an asset class, which means that they are betting on a certain price trend during the period they are invested in commodity assets," the UN said. "They do not trade systematically on the basis of fundamental supply and demand relationships in single markets, even if shocks in those markets may influence their behavior temporarily."
In a fuel market in which drivers already think prices are headed toward $5 a gallon, commodities brokers and investors aren't just potentially funneling populist anger away from fuel companies and toward Wall Street. They're building that anger a pipeline.

It was bad enough that I had to take a huge paycut after being unemployed for a long time and not able to find work closer to home then gas prices go thru the ceiling. Two mornings ago I paid $4.49/gal for premium, have to use that grade in my Jetta, then in one day it went up to $4.73, ridiculous! So am making $15.50/hour and pay about $400/month for gas just for work. That isn't counting if I go out, which I've seriously cut down on.
Now, is it our fault that a fire broke out at the refinery in WA because there was not enough protection to prevent it? Is it our fault there was a power outage at the refinery in SoCal and that they didn't have preventative measures in place for back up power? I don't know what's behind the closure of the crude pipeline to NoCal so wont' comment on that. Now we know that Exxon-Mobil is going to file claims w/their insurance carriers so they're covered for their losses, who do we go to to recover our losses from these BS high prices??
As I've said for many years, this country is RIPE FOR A REVOLUTION!
That's all I got to say.
we heard it coming several months ago when blow bama said we should be paying what Europeans are paying for gas. ALL of the politicians who are currently seated in Washington should be ousted and replaced with people who have no ties there. let them all know we have the power to control how they vote with ours. there is never a reason for our gas price to be this high other than corporate greed and price gouging. USA is the 4th largest exporter of crude! get that! we need to keep it and our foreign aid money here and take care of our economy and home folks first and foremost.. to HELL with opec and the jihadist countries that don't like our freedoms. how come so many of them want to come here or want to change our way of living? It's time we quit worrying about all the others and do what it takes to get America back on track and in focus with GOD!
"There hasn't been a refinery built in the U.S. since 1976"
I notice in these types of articles that there is never any mention of the 25%-30% of refineries which were SHUT DOWN to create a "shortage" and raise prices when good old Ronald Reagan deregulated the industry back in the 1980's!
If anyone gave it more than 5 minutes thought, they would come to the realization that the oil and gas industry is nothing more than an unregulated public utility. Or course nothing will change as long as poiltitians can be bought and paid for!

Governor Mark Dayton tossed Minnesota into the ring on Monday for a shot at hosting the Super Bowl.
At a news conference at the State Capitol, Gov. Dayton and a coalition of Minnesota business and community leaders presented the state's bid to bring the Super Bowl to the new Vikings stadium in 2018. Other contenders for Super Bowl LII are Indianapolis and New Orleans.
"The Super Bowl is the most watched annual event in the world. In addition to game attendees, it brings over 100,000 people to the host community for a weeklong celebration," Dayton said in a release. "Hosting the Super Bowl would bring enormous economic benefits to many Minnesota businesses, as well as provide a terrific opportunity to again showcase Minnesota to the world."
An independent study said the Super Bowl's economic impact to Indianapolis in 2012 was $324 million dollars. Dayton estimated the impact in Minneapolis to be closer to half a billion dollars.
MORE INFORMATION: http://www.minneapolis.org/mnsuperbowl
Dayton named three business leaders to co-chair the effort:
- Doug Baker, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Ecolab
- Marilyn Carlson Nelson, former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Carlson
- Richard Davis, Chairman/President/Chief Executive Officer at U.S. Bancorp.
The committee said at the meeting the Twin Cities can commit 19,000 rooms for four nights for Super Bowl fans.
The group will develop a full proposal before a final selection is announced in May 2014 following the NFL Owners Meetings in Atlanta.
The stadium has been slated to open in July 2016.
Minneapolis last hosted Super Bowl XXVI in 1992 at the Metrodome when the Washington Redskins faced the Buffalo Bills. Quarterback Mark Rypien and the Redskins defeated the Bills 37-24, making the Bills the third team -- after the Vikings and the Denver Broncos -- to lose back-to-back Super Bowls.
Meanwhile, tickets for Super Bowl XLVIII between the Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos are getting cheaper by the day. Forbes reports the average list price for tickets on TiqIQ was $3,448.79 three weeks before teams had secured a spot in the matchup. Now, according to SeatGeek, the average price paid for tickets is $2,505, down 27.1 percent from the average price of $3,439 paid for those tickets just three days ago.
Fans will be sitting outside at MetLife Stadium this Sunday, but it's too soon to tell how cold it'll be. A Super Bowl in Minneapolis could certainly sport a -52 wind chill to match the Super Bowl's title, but at least fans won't be sitting outside.
The state will also begin selling bonds for the new $1 billion Vikings stadium Monday after the Minnesota Supreme Court threw out a petition last week attempting to block the sale of bonds that would cover the state's portion of the funding for the stadium.
Three Minneapolis residents contended the funding mechanism for the stadium was unconstitutional, but now, after a two-week delay, the state is reviving the sale of $468 million in bonds backed by state appropriations.

I love the delicate flavor of this sorbet. I went to a neighborhood store to get buttermilk and they only had milk. So I bought 2% and made it into buttermilk with 1T of lemon juice per cup. The recipe is easy to make and QUICK! The sorbet itself it light and delicate and it's perfect when paired with the strawberries.
Buttermilk Sorbet with Strawberries

Perhaps I was not anticipating the flavor of buttermilk, but I was not a huge fan of this, and it did not go over well with company.
JasperSu Posted: 06/02/11
I love this. It tastes like the "original tart" at the local soft serve frozen yogurt shop. I double the recipe in my little electric ice cream freezer then serve half with the strawberries as soft serve and put the rest into popsicle molds to freeze firm for future snacking.

Good luck, you'll need it if you bought your internet service from Best Buy.
Hm, I've had Speakeasy service for over 10 years, and their customer service is still as spectacular as it has always been (which is why I pay a premium for their service instead of going with Comcast/Qwest/etc). I was concerned about the sale to Best Buy, but I haven't noticed any changes at all. Have you experienced something different?
I've seldom dealt with incompetence on the level I did while I was a customer of Speakeasy. Their tech support's answer to everything is, "Read the documentation." Mind you, when you've read it and your question isn't covered they have no idea what to do.
I will say, however, their executive team was good. When I yanked my site off of Speakeasy's piss-poor business solutions servers I was sure to send a detailed complaint about they two years of horrible service I'd had, starting with their sales team's attempt at a bait and switch to the constant server down times and insulting tech support who didn't even try to pretend how unimportant your problems were to them. Two weeks later I received a phone call from someone at Speakeasy saying my complaint had been researched and Speakeasy apologized for the blatant mishandling of my account. They'd found out things were a lot worse than I'd thought they were and refunded the previous year's "rent" to me after going through all their findings one by one.
I was really impressed – it was just a shame that level of professionalism wasn't found everywhere else in the company.
Same here, MissJulieD; happy Speakeasy customer for several years and very impressed with their level of tech support service. I was initially worried about the Best Buy purchase, but so far it doesn't seem to have affected them at all.
Give it time. If geek squad is any indication Best Buy corporate policy will slowly remove every redeeming feature in favor of "profit."
From what I've heard, there's a huge difference between their consumer service departments and business service departments. Experiences like RKM0001's seem to be typical with business accounts. But that's been the case since before Best Buy bought them.
We'll see where this Best Buy thing goes I guess. I don't have high hopes, but since their consumer accounts are such a small portion of their business maybe they'll leave them alone.

Although I have always been keenly aware that no legislator can accomplish anything alone, that point was underscored in the final days of this session. I owe a great debt of gratitude to our community for your help in passing a new law that will be vitally important to our children.
What's a Gold Award? In the past year, I have encountered this question countless times. As a Girl Scout, the Gold Award is the gold standard. But very few people know what it is or if brought up in passing conversation, the organization with which it is associated.
However, if you mention its equivalent, the Eagle Scout Award, the Boy Scouts of America immediately springs to mind.
After six years of peeling back layers of our corrupt state government, nothing should surprise us. And yet Judge Casey Manning's ruling was still a shock – it didn't seem possible for a judge to shut down a grand jury investigation into alleged corruption by the speaker of the house and argue that Bobby Harrell's staff and colleagues on the House Ethics Committee must first decide if he had committed a crime.
But it happened.
Every day on social media, I see posts bemoaning our young people and the future. It's easy to join in and criticize a different generation. However, the majority of the young people I know are pretty remarkable. And there are two prime examples calling the Red Rose City home of whom I am extremely proud.
Both Paige Duke and Julie Roberts found success nationally. Both faced adversity that could have ruined their careers, but each one has emerged victorious.

As we celebrate our nation's birthday, let us remember our responsibilities to government and its responsibilities to us.
The Bible teaches that believers are to be law-abiding citizens; they are to "be subject unto the higher powers," because "the powers that be are ordained of God" (Romans 13:1). Joseph traveled from Nazareth to Bethlehem at the time of Jesus' birth to obey the Roman government's decree that a census be taken.
Today we don our red, white and blue. We'll wave our flags, fire up the grills, parade down Main streets and country roads to cheering crowds.
We'll shoot fireworks, rally with family and friends and picnic anywhere we can place a blanket. And why not. We're celebrating our 238th birthday.

I attended the special Lancaster County Council meeting about the I-77 Alliance snub. I sat in the back. I was a little late and couldn't get my name on the list to speak.
So, I figured I would stay for the meeting. I couldn't believe what I heard and witnessed. This whole issue is personal, it has nothing to do with any law-breaking or violation of any ordinance. The action taken by the council to freeze Lancaster County Economic Corp. (LCEDC) budget, in my opinion, is an abuse of power.
At the June 9 Lancaster County Council meeting, when introducing the development agreements, Council Chairman Larry McCullough indicated that the MI Homes development agreement included a payment of $500 per house to the county for the benefit of Lancaster County School District.
McCullough further indicated that provision had been made by the Lancaster County Planning Commission that the school district be given a 30-day opportunity to suggest a contribution level that was more representative of the cost of constructing a new school.

"A Chicago clubber is all about the total image," says Nick Stenson of the night scene in his hometown.
"We are talking image from top to bottom, including fresh color, fashion, high heels. She must have something that makes her stand out from the crowd. Good news for me ... the hair is usually the focus!"
His goal, says Nick, is to make sure Margot doesn't get sent to the guys' side.
"I've never seen it in any other city, but in some Chicago clubs, the guys line up on one side of the rope and the girls line up on the other," he says. "Sometimes the bouncers will send a girl over to the guy side of the line. This is code for you will never get in."
The look that works is long, full hair, with or without extensions; volume and texture are key. "When she walks, her attitude has to show through her hair," he says.
Nick wanted color impact, so he highlighted, lowlighted and toned her hair to a bright blonde. Then he placed wefts in three different blonde shades beneath the curve of the head and iron-curled them with the natural strands, some forward, some back, and sprays it all.
"The curl will add more texture and volume," says Nick. "And all this spray is to help set in the style."
The make-up, which Nick applies here himself, must have punch. "It's either big eyes or big lips," he says. "A smoky eye or power lips. It's all about balance."
Nails are not an afterthought. "Both manicure and pedicure," Nick says. "It's about the package. We want heads to turn."
Nick Stenson bulks up Margot's long hair with three wefts in different shades of blonde.
A set with irons of various sizes creates volume with curl support; spray keeps it up.

Brian Buenaventura, a born-and-bred New Yorker, has been working as assistant to Orlando Pita ever since earning his license two years ago. And since then, he's been out almost ever night.
"There is nothing like New York; I've traveled all over the world and in NY you can find anything for anyone at anytime," says Brian. "There is so much variety in music, crowds, taste and fashion. There is not just one scene."
His current favorite nightspots are the Glasslands Gallery in Brooklyn and Cielo in Manhattan's meat-packing district, where we shot Margot's finished New York look. To get into the club, she needs hair that's not "cookie cutter," says Brian.
