The Fryer, Vol. 20
Warner Bros. Interactive announces Citizen Kane: The Video Game
Following the example of recent games based on older movies like "The Godfather" and "The Wizard of Oz," Warner Bros. Interactive today announced that another cinematic classic would be coming to consoles soon.
"For years, gamers, pundits and analysts have been wondering when videogaming would have its 'Citizen Kane' moment," Warner Bros. spokesman Saul Abromowitz told a packed press conference today. "Well, we finally have an answer to that question: Summer 2010, when Citizen Kane: The Video Game hits store shelves!" Abromowitz yelled, prompting a round of thunderous applause from the assembled press.
Rather than just retelling the timeless story of publishing magnate Charles Foster Kane, Abromowitz explained that Kane: The Game will fill in the gaps between scenes in Kane's life with newly written narrative sections. He then introduced developer David Ryerson, who showed that very concept in action.
"So this section starts with a familiar scene of Kane pushing his paper's reporters to write pieces in favor of a war against Spain," Ryerson explained. "This is straight from the movie. But then, in the game, all of a sudden a bunch of isolationist Spaniards burst through the doors and windows, trying to 'stop the presses.' What's a newspaper publisher to do?"
With that, the black-and-white, nearly photorealistic on-screen model of Kane responded with perfect timing. "Looks like I'm gonna have to KICK SOME SPANISH ASS!" Kane screamed, drawing hoots and hollers from the crowd of journalists.
An early build of Citizen Kane: The Video Game shows off a rhythm-based mini-game.
Ryerson then went on to show a few of the "10 exciting mini-games" that will break up the action in the game, including a stealth section targeted at hiding a politically damaging affair and the obligatory sled race on the infamous "Rosebud." "We'll probably throw a rhythm mini-game in there, in the second half," Ryerson said. "Kids seem to like those these days."
Critics are already breathless with anticipation for the game. In a preview, IGN's James Anderson said the title could finally "prove to the world that gaming is a legitimate art form, and prove to my mom that I haven't been wasting my life for the past 35 years."
Alongside the announcement, Orson Welles' estate issued a statement supporting the game, saying that it hoped the game would "help bring the joy, artistry and immense profit-generating opportunities of this classic film to a new generation."
I'm sorry, but these reviewer freebies just don't merit a perfect score
By Morton Smith, Editor-in-Chief, GameReviews4every1.blogspot.com
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is being universally hailed as one of the best games of the year. Its mix of tight, action-packed gameplay; a witty, well-presented story and solid, balanced multiplayer action truly make it an instant classic. But while the developers and Naughty Dog and the publishers at Sony haven't skimped on the game's quality, they've certainly skimped in another important area. I'm sorry, but these reviewer freebies just doesn't merit a perfect score.
Let's start with the packaging itself -- just a large brown box with UPS "2nd day air" stickers all over it. Would it have killed them to create some sort of glossy branded box just for us reviewers, so that everyone in my apartment complex could know how special I am? Apparently not.
The Uncharted 2 packaging received a low rating from Morton Smith of the GameReviews4every1 blog.
But it gets worse when you see what's inside that box. Besides the game, all that's included is a replica knife and an art book. Sure, these extras are well made and nice enough, but they're the same ones that are included in the special "Hunter's Edition" that's gone out to literally dozens of lucky contest winners. Would it have killed them to make some truly exclusive extras, to be included only with press copies of the game? I guess it would have, because that's the only explanation I can think of for not doing it.
And there's so much more the PR people could have done to promote this game before its release. They could have flown me to Tibet to sneak around a realistic recreation of the game's setting. They could have flown me out to a palatial Hollywood suite for an exclusive interview with the star-studded voice talent in the game. They could have rented out a Hawaiian resort for a weeklong demo event so I could check out the game before it came out. But no -- despite multiple requests from me, the publishers apparently didn't think any of these were good ideas. It's like they don't want this game to get a good score.
And it's not just limited to Uncharted 2. More and more often these days I'll receiving review copies of games in plain manila bubble mailers, with nothing more than a barebones press release packed in. Have we really reached the point in videogame promotion where the game itself is supposed to stand on its own, without any sort of swag to influence the reviewer? I used to have so many free videogame T-shirts that I wouldn't have to do the laundry for a month. Now some of those shirts are starting to wear away to tatters. What do these people expect me to wear, huh?
When I was a young boy, I read countless tales of game journalists getting showered with lavish gifts, extravagant trips and even giant hats made out of money, all in exchange for just a few kind words and that elusive perfect score. These were the kinds of stories that made me want to be a game journalist in the first place! Now that I actually am a game journalist, of course, with a blog that attracts literally hundreds of visitors a month, I realize that the reality could never live up to the dream. Maybe that's part of growing up.
That said, Sony, I'm sorry, but Uncharted 2 only gets a 9.5/10.

Haider Ala Hamoudi
Associate Professor of Law
Associate Dean for Research & Faculty Development
- email@example.com
- (412) 624-1055
Professor Hamoudi teaches contracts, commercial law and Islamic law. In 2014, he was awarded the Robert T. Harper Award for Excellence in Teaching.
Professor Hamoudi's scholarship focuses on Middle Eastern and Islamic Law, particularly, but not exclusively, as it pertains to matters of commerce. He has called for a reassessment of the manner in which law in the Muslim world is understood and approached, with less reliance on medieval texts and more emphasis on the positive law of the nation states of the Muslim world and on the political, social, economic and ideological influences that influence its interpretation. He has written for numerous law reviews, spoken at conferences in distinguished academic and practitioner venues such as Yale University, Harvard University, Columbia University, the American Association of Law Schools and the New York City Bar Association, and given interviews to various news organizations including The New York Times, Forbes.com, Slate.com, the McNeil-Lehrer News Hour Online and the New York Law Journal. In 2009, Professor Hamoudi was awarded the Hessel Yntema prize, awarded by the American Society of Comparative Law for the best article produced in the American Journal of Comparative Law the previous year by an author under the age of 40.
Professor Hamoudi spent most of 2009 in Baghdad advising the Constitutional Review Committee of the Iraqi legislature, responsible for developing critical amendments to the Iraq Constitution deemed necessary for Iraqi national reconciliation, on behalf of the United States Embassy in Baghdad. He also advised on other key pieces of legislation, including a hydrocarbons law, a revenue management law, and an antitrust law. From this work, and from extensive contemporaneous research into the records and legislative history of the drafting of the Iraqi Constitution in 2005, Professor Hamoudi published a book with the University of Chicago Press in 2013 entitled Negotiating in Civil Conflict: Imperfect Bargaining and Constitutional Construction in Iraq.
Professor Hamoudi's most recent work looks at the three primary forms of legal order in the Iraqi nation-state—tribal law, Islamic law and state law—and attempts to explain how they interact with one another to organize commercial and other private law activity throughout the state. As with his earlier work, Professor Hamoudi seeks to demonstrate that the actual operation of law, including Islamic law, is far more complex, and interesting, than any examination of authoritative legal texts would lead one to believe.
Professor Hamoudi received his B.Sc. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1993. He was both a member of the Physics Honor Society, Sigma Pi Sigma, and a Burchard Scholar for Excellence in the Humanities and Social Sciences. In 1996, Professor Hamoudi received his J.D. from Columbia Law School, where he was a Harlan Fiske Stone Scholar. After graduating, he served as a law clerk to the Honorable Constance Baker Motley in the Southern District of New York and then worked as an Associate at the law firm of Debevoise & Plimpton until 2003. In 2003 and 2004, Professor Hamoudi served as a legal advisor to the Finance Committee of the Iraq Governing Council, as well as a Program Manager for a project managed by the International Human Rights Law Institute of DePaul University School of Law to improve legal education in Iraq. He joined the University of Pittsburgh School of Law as an Assistant Professor in 2007.
Professor Hamoudi is the author of a blog on Islamic Law entitled Islamic Law in Our Times.

During the MTV show's panel at the big event, Dylan O'Brien, Linden Ashby (Sheriff Stilinski) and Executive Producer Jeff Davis were on hand for the exciting announcement. According to the network, "the hit series will return for a fourth season in 2014 with 12 new episodes." And, not at all surprisingly, Jeff says that "Not everyone is making it out alive."
But that's not the only "Eff yeah!" news we learned. Additionally, MTV is tapped to debut a new companion talk show, Wolf Watch, which will air after each episode of Teen Wolf. WW will be hosted by Jill Wagner (a.k.a. the late Kate Argent) and will cover "topics ranging from the heavy mythology elements featured in the season, to the steamy romances and hilarious bromances that run rampant between the series' supernatural high-schoolers."
Teen Wolf, Season 3B begins on Monday, January 6, 2014 at 10p ET, followed by the series premiere of Wolf Watch.
Check out the Teen Wolf, Season 3B trailer!

Many Raleigh County residents have had a headache of a commute for almost 2 months now.
But Tuesday night, they found relief. According to the Department of Transportation's Communications Specialist Carrie Bly, Route 3 was reopened to two-lane traffic at 5 p.m.
Following the rockslide, drivers have been re-directed to Route 1.
As last minute repairs and construction have come to a conclusion, one lane of Route 3 had re-opened, allowing traffic to slowly pass through it again.
A nearby resident told 59News while being directed on Route 1, he has had to plan at least an extra hour into his daily commute.
"It's actually an added one hour drive from the normal route, route 3 vs. route 1. I'm concerned about the school kids, they have to go around Spruce Mountain, that takes them about another hour to get to school and it's dangerous," said Dry Creek resident, Harold Bradford.
Despite people feeling a huge sense of relief knowing that both lanes have re-opened, they want to know why it has taken so long.
"You don't want any kind of instances where a rockslide will come down and hit a car. A lot of planning goes into making sure it's fixed right. Time isn't of the essence in a situation like this, public safety is," said Travis Thomas of Green Acres Contracting.
Tom Camden with the Division of Highways told 59News:
"If all it the job was, was cleanup of debris, we would have finished weeks ago. As the public's safety is always our chief concern, we took the time necessary to ensure the stability of the mountainside."
Right now mud and gravel is laid down as a temporary fix to the road to allow traffic. Camden also said asphalt plants open in April and they will begin permanent paving along Route 3 this spring.
This is how Bradford told us he will celebrate both lanes being re-opened.
"I'm going to go on down to the Dairy Queen and get me a banana split, even as cold as it is! Haha!" said Bradford.
The Division of Highways issued a statement to the public saying:
"This construction has been an investment to the public's safety, we greatly appreciate everyone's patience and understanding."
Officials with the West Virginia Department of Transportation announced on Tuesday, Feb. 11 that they will be reopening Route 3 in Raleigh County.
According to Communications Specialist Carrie Bly, Route 3 was reopened to two lane traffic at 5 p.m. Officials with the WVDOT said that the repairs to the road are temporary and that the roadway will remain rough until permanent repairs can be made in the Spring. In the meantime, the speed limit on road will be reduced to 15 MPH in the area.
Contractor Vecillio and Grogan wrapped up their work on the roadway over the weekend and turned the project over to the West Virginia Division of Highways. Route 3 has been closed for more than a month. The rockslide that happened near the community of Sundial occurred on Friday, Dec. 27.
After more than a month of work, there is light at the end of the tunnel for people taking a detour around a rockslide in western Raleigh County.
The West Virginia Department of Transportation said that work to clear the rockslide that happened between Christmas and New Year's Day is nearly complete. Officials with Vecillio and Grogan, the contractor hired to do the work on stabilizing the cliff face, said that they expect to complete their work over the weekend of Feb. 8 and 9. Crews with the Division of Highways will be working on replacing the guardrail and making temporary repairs to the roadway.
Officials with the WVDOT said that they appreciate the continued patience of people in the communities affected by the slide. They have been working to accommodate some local travelers when possible.
"During the last couple of weeks, we have allowed local traffic to drive through the site at certain times," said DOT Communications Specialist, Carrie Bly. "These openings occurred during the morning/evening commute, and only when equipment was not running and the work site was deemed safe for travel."
"With an election scheduled for Saturday in Raleigh County, the DOH will make every attempt to accommodate drivers heading to the polls. Traffic will only be permitted through the site only when the road is deemed safe for travel."
The Raleigh County Clerk's office is also working to accommodate voters in the part Raleigh County affected by the rock slide. A temporary polling place will be set up at the old Pettus Grade School on Saturday.
The Division of Highways expects to have the roadway reopened, with restrictions, by the end of next week. However, permanent repairs to the roadway will take place in the spring.

Gingerman Tavern
A splendid place to pass an evening, this spot features a huge and eclectic beer selection, which is enjoyed by rockers, theater types and other creative folks. It offers respite from the Cubs mania of the rest of the strip.

Have the Hancock Observatory view without the Hancock Observatory admission price. Shoot straight up to the 96th floor and order a beverage while looking out over the city. It's particularly gape-worthy at night. Ladies: don't miss the bathroom view. Note that the lounge and restaurant have a separate elevator from the observatory.
Hidden behind a factory at the edge of Bucktown, this two-room lodge of indie rock and alt-country is well worth seeking out. The owners have nursed an outsider, underground vibe, and the place feels like the downstairs of your grandma's rumpus room. Music and other events (bingo, literary readings etc) take place nightly. Tickets cost between $5 and $15.
The timeless Green Mill earned its notoriety as Al Capone's favorite speakeasy (the tunnels where he hid the booze are still underneath the bar). Sit in one of the curved leather booths and feel his ghost urging you on to another martini. Local and national jazz artists perform nightly; Sundays also host the nationally acclaimed poetry slam.
Located by the Second City comedy club and the scene of late-night musings since the 1960s, this unpretentious neighborhood favorite lets you mingle with beautiful people and grizzled regulars, seated pint by pint under the nude-politician paintings. Classic jazz on the jukebox provides the soundtrack for the jovial goings-on.
Top local and national blues acts wail on the stage of local icon Buddy Guy. The man himself plugs in his ax during a multi-show residency in January; keep an eye on the website for details (tickets usually go on sale in November). The location is a bit rough around the edges, but the acts are consistently excellent.
For three decades the Metro has been synonymous with loud rock. Sonic Youth and the Ramones in the '80s. Nirvana and Jane's Addiction in the '90s. White Stripes and The Killers in the new millennium. Each night prepare to hear noise by three or four bands who may well be teetering on the verge of superstardom.
Do as the retro sign advises and 'Stop & Drink Liquor'. The Ale House has a rotating assortment featuring several Midwestern microbreweries. Work up a thirst on the free pretzels, order a three-beer sampler for $6 and cool off in the beer garden out back. This place is tops in the neighborhood.
This off-the-beaten-path little bar charms with its kind bartenders, roving tamale vendors who pop in on occasion and well-worn, thrift-store decor. On Sunday nights it hosts sets of live jazz (cover charge $7) from some of the city's best young players. Cash only.
Built between 1922 and 1926 to pay homage to WWI soldiers, this oft-renovated edifice has been home to everything from civil-rights speeches by Martin Luther King Jr to Brazilian soccer games. It got its latest UFO-landing-upon-a-Greek-ruin look in a controversial 2003 makeover.
Steppenwolf is Chicago's top stage for quality, provocative theater productions. The Hollywood-heavy ensemble includes Gary Sinise, John Malkovich, Martha Plimpton, Gary Cole, Joan Allen, Tracy Letts and John Mahoney. A money-saving tip: the box office releases 20 tickets for $20 for each day's shows.
Raise your fist to Revolution, a massive, industrial-chic brewpub that fills glasses with heady beers like the 7% Eugene porter (named for Eugene Debs, the leader of Chicago's Pullman strike in 1894). The suds are high quality – the brewmaster led the way for Chicago's exploding craft beer scene.

Johnny is looking to connect with other SEO and SEM enthusiasts to learn, share knowledge and ultimately improve my knowledge of Search Engine Optimization.
All new or recent members welcome to the group! I have not attended many of the functions the past few months, but I have followed from a far and just wanted to let you know that the group is doing some fantastic things. I encourage you to take advantage of all that the group has to offer.
Nice meeting you the other day. You seem enthusiastic, love it. I'm sure we'll see you in the future.
Thank you for the welcome message Johnny. I missed the last meet up but should be at the next one. I look forward to meeting everyone.
Have a good day!
Thanks, but can't take the credit. My Wordpress site needed changes quickly, so I found SimpleFolio, a WP theme that is clean and has a nice foundation. I plan to build it up from there.

The great thing about being a freelance writer is I get to explore the wide universe of ideas and experiences. Take these, for example:
Rock Rest was a guest house in Kittery Point, Maine, that welcomed African American travelers when other places didn't. Read about it in Maine Boats, Homes & Harbors (May 2014).
We travel to learn more about ourselves and others. In Cuba recently, I learned how I feel about home. For Wellesley Weston Magazine: Discovering Cuba, and beyond
Restorative Justice helps victims as well as first-time offenders and addresses the problem of overincarceration in our prisons. It makes sense. Read: Communities for Restorative Justice
Although this piece ran in the Boston Globe Sunday travel section awhile ago, I was just thinking about the extraordinary colors and textures of The Ochre Hills in Provence
and I'm writing a mystery novel so it was with particular interest that I interviewed New York Times bestselling author William Martin
Have an idea for a feature I might write? Or need a writer for an upcoming project? Send me a note at firstname.lastname@example.com
Love fine art, history, maritime and folk art, quirky collections or children's museums? Then my book, Maine's Museums: Art, Oddities & Artifacts is just what you need. I hope you'll agree with Maine Magazine's review:
In her thorough, affectionate, and engaging exploration of Maine's obscure and popular museums, Janet Mendelsohn provides an excellent guide to navigating Maine's wealth of history and art. The book eloquently reminds us of Maine's dedication to its art, culture, and history, and the importance of looking back as we continue to move forward.

In response to:
I would think someone would tell him the campaigning is over. It is time for him to put up or shut up and go home to Kenya. He got away with doing nothing but putting this country into the worst situation it has ever been in. Now it is time for him to get us out of it and he clearly doesn't have a clue on how to do that. I would think his own party would be getting tired of hearing his whining.

Berkeley Police Department's past continues to influence the officers of today
On Wednesday, Berkeleyside published the first part of a two-part interview with Berkeley's new Police Chief, Michael Meehan. Today we give you Part II.
Deep in the bowels of the Berkeley Police Department is an L-shaped hallway that is a shrine to the department's past.
There is an old lie detector encased in a wooden box, a scale to weigh inmates, and an autographed picture of President John F. Kennedy, probably signed when he came to UC … Continue reading »

1 Killed, 3 Injured In Crash On SR 840 Near Nolensville Road
COLLEGE GROVE, Tenn. – A woman was killed and three other people were injured in a crash on State Route 840 in Williamson County on Monday afternoon.
The three-vehicle crash happened around 1:30 p.m. Monday just after the Nolensville Road interchange near College Grove.
The Tennessee Highway Patrol said 63-year-old Debbie C. Atashzay, of Shelbyville, was killed in the crash. She was a passenger in a Cadillac CTS, which was driven by 26-year-old Amber M. Atashzay, also from Shelbyville. She was also injured.
Troopers said traffic was slow in the eastbound lanes when a Toyota FJ, driven by 35-year-old Richard A. Sussen of Manchester, rear-ended the Cadillac. That caused the Cadillac to strike a Ford Focus from behind. The Focus then went off the right shoulder, and landed in a ditch. The Cadillac rotated and stopped in the right lane while the FJ overturned and landed on its right side in the middle of the roadway.
Sussen, who was not wearing a seatbelt, and the driver of the Focus, 19-year-old Donald Moore III of Shelbyville, were also hurt. Their conditions were not immediately known.
Investigators were working to determine if weather contributed to the crash. They said criminal charges were pending.
The roadway was shut down for four hours while troopers investigated.

Hesser, Amanda
Adult Nonfiction TX801 .H48 1999
Summary: Winner of the Best Book on France by a Non-French Writer Award at the Versailles Cookbook Fair; finalist for the Julia Child Award, the Gourmet Magazine Award, and "Best Cookbook of the Year" sponsored by IACP; and nominated in the international category of the KitchenAid Book Awards of the James Beard Foundation Awards.A unique blend of stylish cookbook and earthy garden story, here is a collection of 250 recipes derived from a centuries-old French kitchen garden. The stunning debut of a lively new culinary voice, The Cook and the Gardener chronicles a year in the life of the walled kitchen garden at Chateau du Fey and its taciturn, resourceful, charmingly sly peasant caretaker. Using the fruits and vegetables harvested from Monsieur Milbert's garden, Amanda Hesser creates four seasons of recipes tied ineluctably to the land and the all-but-forgotten practices upheld by Milbert. Hesser's sublimely simple recipes--each with accessible ingredients and clear notes and instructions--also tell a story. They are a month-by-month record of the ingredients available to her, so that this cookbook also serves as an almanac for cooks. Special "Basics" sections at the opening of each season lay the culinary groundwork for the recipes that follow. Tips on how to buy, store, and prepare particular vegetables, fruits, and herbs are presented in margin notes to recipes. By bringing the kitchen closer to the garden, The Cook and the Gardener gives home cooks a new understanding of the produce they have on hand, whether from the supermarket, the farmer's market, or their own gardens. At the same time, it captures the quirky customs and wily wisdom of a vanishing way of life in provincial France.

ABC News editor blames wife, amnesia for gender identity crisis
ABC News editor Don Ennis suffered a very public identity crisis by switching his gender twice in a three-month period, and posting a workplace memo attributing his actions to amnesia.
According to a report by The New York Post, Ennis started dressing as a woman and going by the name "Dawn" in May, but recently switched back to being a "just another boring straight guy."
In a memo posted to the newsroom bulletin board Friday and first obtained by the website NewsBlues.com, Ennis called the episode a "transient global amnesia" and accused his wife, whom he left, of playing "some kind of cruel joke, dressing me up in a wig and bra and making fake ID's with the name 'Dawn' on it. Seriously."
The memo also attributed his actions to female hormones his mother allegedly gave him as a child. Ennis went on to say: "It became obvious this was not the case once I took off the bra — and discovered two reasons I was wearing one," he said, referring to his hormone-induced breasts.
"I thought it was 1999 … and I was sure as hell that I was a man," Ennis said in the e-mail titled "Not Reportable, Very Confirmed."
"Fortunately, my memories of the last 14 years have since returned. But what did not return was my identity as Dawn," said Ennis, who had been wearing lipstick, skirts and heels.
"I am writing to let you know I'm changing my name … to Don Ennis. That will be my name again, now and forever. And it appears I'm not transgender after all.
"I have retained the much different mind-set I had in 1999: I am now totally, completely, unabashedly male in my mind, despite my physical attributes," he said.
"I'm asking all of you who accepted me as a transgender to now understand: I was misdiagnosed.
"I am already using the men's room and dressing accordingly," he noted.
"It's so odd to be experiencing this from the other side; as recently as last Friday, I felt I was indeed a woman, in my mind, body and soul.
"Even though I will not wear the wig or the makeup or the skirts again, I promise to remain a strong straight ally, a supporter of diversity and an advocate for equal rights and other LGBT issues including same-sex marriage."

An all-out brawl erupted between mothers at a Chuck E Cheese in Long Island.
The whole thing apparently started over a purse that a woman snatched out from under another woman's foot.
The first punch was thrown by a woman who was still holding her baby, and it ended up with at least half a dozen other ladies.
As the women fought, a recorded voice sang 'Happy Birthday'.
Women piled on women, pulling hair and cursing as a few men stood by, confused and helpless.
At one point, the group of angry women stormed out, with someone yelling as they left, 'The children! Children!'

What advice would you give a younger you?
Consider, for a second, your life. Consider all of the life lessons you've learned and the experiences you've undergone during your brief existence here. Consider the trials and tribulations you've faced and the lessons you've learned "the hard way." If you could write a letter to you, at any point in your life, and give yourself as much advice as you saw fit, what would you say? Would you remind yourself that life goes on? Would you promise that things always get better no matter how terrible they might seem? Would you take the philosophy of Frank Sinatra and explain to your younger self that "That's Life"? Would you plead with yourself to turn to God sooner? Would you warn yourself to stay away from soda, salt, and red meat?
Of course, this arouses the argument of "I like my life the way it is now, and everything that happened happened for a reason thus I would not change anything." If that is your stance, then I pose another question: What advice would you give to a younger being? Age, culture, ethnic background, and special circumstances are arbitrary, irrelevant, and up to you.
This is your chance, here and now, to give any and all of the advice you've found so essential to happiness and well being, to a youth that might sincerely need it.
I created this duplicate question for those who wanted to post on the earlier question but stumbled upon it too late to do so.
If you have not read through the answers on the other post, a task that, while a sizable feat, is definitely an inspiring read, here is the link to do that.

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - Sioux Falls police are holding a citywide saturation patrol tomorrow night heading into the Memorial Day weekend.
Lieutenant Jerry Miller says 16 additional officers will be watching for the impaired driver between eight Friday night until four Saturday morning.
Miller says the advance warning is so partiers can plan ahead. If you're going to a party or be someplace where there will be drinking, stay where you're at or have a designated driver. He advises taking a cab or renting a motel room but don't drink and drive.
Miller say a daytime saturation patrol, targeting speeders and seat belt violators, will be held Saturday, June first between eight a-m and four p-m.
He says the extra officers on saturation patrol are paid by a federal grant

Su-25s Bought After F-16 Delays
By Harold Hutchison
Iraq has bought a number of used Sukhoi ground-attack planes from Russia as delays have sprung up as the delivery of F-16 fighters. The Russian fighters were provided within a week of the Iraqi government signing a contract.
The Pulsar Digisight N550A Digital Night Vision Riflescope features 13 built-in reticle options, allowing shooters to switch between white and black subtensions on the reticle, making targets more visible against the background (black for daytime operation and white for nighttime operation).
Remember Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi, who left active duty in 2012. who claimed that he was snatched by Mexican authorities 31 March this year at San Ysidro border? He had guns and ammo in his truck, and claimed to have not realized that he had crossed the Mexican border.
We have updated our readers as he has been spending nearly three months in a Mexican prison. Many outraged Americans called for his release and return.

Photo: Mexican police remove plastic bags containing the dismembered bodies of journalists, in Boca del Rio, Mexico, Thursday, May 3, 2012.
CHICAGO, May 7, 2012 — This is the third in a series of articles (here and here) on street gangs and drug lords. Associated Press reported the dangers of reporting on drug cartels in Mexico. Journalists and photographers are being brutally tortured and murdered just for doing their jobs.
Reporters and photographers are trying and dying to get stories out.
The American media is relatively mute on the menace of major street gangs and drug lords in our cities.
The media reports the body count or the numbers of wounded. They do not report on the people who lead criminal entities. There is no in depth reporting on the organizations, their structure, hierarchy, or leadership. They report on gangs and drug cartels as if they were amorphous faceless organizations.
The war on drugs and the ever-evolving war on gangs are not failing for the disingenuous reasons you are led to believe. The academics, progressives and libertarians, profiteers in the rehab industry, race baiters, experts with no expertise, and of course politicians who will say anything are all lying to the media and American public.
The given reasons for failures are distortions, fabrications, or outright lies. When people have no clue, they must prove they are intelligent, justify their expertise and grant money, and have a need to be smarter than everyone else. They make stuff up.
The wars on drugs and gang violence were lost for two reasons: metrics and politics.
Whenever you fight a war you need some type of metric to determine results. In war it is body counts, enemy casualties, POWs, and real estate taken and held. In law enforcement, unfortunately, it is heads. Heads are arrests. The more heads the more successful the war. This was really wrong and narrow.
When you are forced to measure success by heads you only get the little guys to generate numbers. The small dealers and middlemen are the soldiers of the drug trade. You do not get the major distributors, financiers, importers, or cartel leaders. You rarely get Mr. Big.
The same holds true for street gangs. The leadership hierarchy rarely gets knocked out.
One of the best tools law enforcement has to destroy organized criminal entities is the long-term investigation. Long-term investigations can take years or even decades to come to fruition. When they do, the leadership hierarchy falls like dominos and the organizations are thrown into chaos, severely weakened or crumble. These investigations do not generate a regular stream of numbers.
It is hard to justify spending millions or billions of dollars for comparatively small results, even though taking down the leadership has major consequences for drug and major gangs organizations. Just like it did for traditional organized crime.
Politicians and bureaucrats wanted to see a bang for all the bucks they spend. Law enforcement works for and is funded by the bureaucrats and politicians. They gave them what they wanted.
The drug business is willing to lose large quantities of product as the cost of doing business. For every kilo they lose an exponential amount gets through. Dope is cheap to manufacture, especially in third world countries. The same holds true for people. For every one arrested there are more to take their place.
Street gangs are ever evolving. Like traditional organized crime, they are always recruiting young people. They start them out in petty crime, and bring them through the ranks.
The political reason is the most dangerous. In the 1960s there was billions of dollars anti-poverty money floating around. Some of it was targeted at gang prevention. Social workers, community organizations, and clergy allied themselves with the gangs and the politicians to grab that money.
The gangs got larger and stronger while getting credibility and immunity for being part of "social change". Politicians were eager and greedy to get that money and spread it around. It made them look magnanimous. The major gangs who directly or indirectly received these funds were immune from most law enforcement activity.
The gangs also became politicized. In Chicago, for example, it is not unusual for the Democrats to utilize street gangs to get out the vote or work the streets up to and on Election Day. Some gang leaders turned to social or political activism as a ploy for credibility and immunity. It worked very well.
The ministers, social workers, community organizers, national organizations, racial or ethnic groups, even reporters, columnists, enable and abet these criminal organizations. They portray them as victims of society instead of people who made free conscious choices to become criminals.
The media has ignored this.
Editors and publishers are afraid of any backlash from the so-called community, which are usually a vocal minority of politically or socially connected whiners and complainers. They are doing a great disservice to the larger public they claim to serve.
In Mexico reporters are literally dying to get the stories out. In America they are suppressing the stories to appear noble, racially and ethnically sensitive, and politically palatable.
Children are still being murdered in our streets. Poison is still being sold. The gangs are growing in strength and power. The drug lords are getting wealthier.
In Mexico journalists are being murdered for reporting the truth. Something is very wrong in American journalism.

Court Won't Hear Complaint About RedskinsŌĆÖ Name
November 16, 2009 - 11:11 AMThe Supreme Court won't hear an appeal from a group of Native Americans who think the name of the NFL's Washington Redskins football team is offensive.
The high court on Monday turned away an appeal from Suzan Shown Harjo. That ends the latest round in the 17-year court battle between the Redskins and a group of American Indians who want them to change their name.
Harjo and her fellow plaintiffs have been working since 1992 to have the Redskins trademarks declared invalid. They initially won -- the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office panel canceled the trademarks in 1999.
But U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly overturned the ruling in 2003 in part because the suit was filed decades after the first Redskins trademark was issued in 1967.

Use UploadifyField::show_debug(); and check the response from the server.

Yes, I'm having that error as well on a fresh install of 2.4.4, uploadify-r534 and dataobject_manager-r535. Worked fine on my local system, just having issue with the (shared hosting) production server. I assume it's some sort of a permission issue?
I added UploadifyField::show_debug(); to mysite/_config (hope that was what you meant Uncle cheese), but didn't seem to show anything error-wise. Once I hit the 'continue' button, got the following message:
'Security token doesn't match, possible CSRF attack.'
I've got a lot of sites running on Silverstripe now but want to add some of the other modules like the Event Calendar that depends on Uploadify. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
NOTE: No other modules installed such as image gallery - this is just in the 'Files & Images' section of Admin.

Just used phpinfo() as a test regards my server setup. Both the local and master values of 'session.use_only_cookies' is set to off. Also went through and tried to make sure all of assets folder is read/writable. No change so far.

The only way to truly see the response is to packet sniff. I recommend Charles http://www.charlesproxy.com/. Provided your error reporting is turned on, that should tell you the message of the 500 error that's coming back.
If it's only some files, I suspect it's related to the file extension (see File::$allowed_extensions) or the file size (see upload_max_filesize and max_post_size in your php.ini).

How Can Barnstable County Overcome Wastewater Sticker Shock?
By: Michael C. Bailey
Published: 06/03/11
According to Paul J. Niedzwiecki, executive director of the Cape Cod Commission, when it comes to selling Cape Cod residents on wastewater management, "everyone wants to fix the problem until they see the price tag."
That is, perhaps, no surprise considering how enormous that price tag could be. According to Robert Ciolek, an independent consultant working with the Cape Cod Water Protection Collaborative, the capital costs of regionwide sewering would be between $3.2 billion and $5.8 billion—a price range that does not take into consideration the ongoing operating costs of $40 million to $68 million each year.
The capital costs alone break down to up to $27,000 per person, or $33,000 per property, Mr. Ciolek told the Barnstable County Board of County Commissioners this week. That, he added, is assuming that every person helped pay into such a project, which would not be the case; he said no more than half of all Cape residents—homeowners—would shoulder the financial burden.
Options for funding wastewater infrastructure include working within a town's existing revenue streams, which Mr. Ciolek said, was, in the current economic climate, not viable; charging betterments, an approach he called "inherently inequitable" since betterments would be higher in less densely developed service districts; seeking a Proposition 2 1/2 override or debt exclusion, which he said was politically difficult to sell to voters; and increasing applicable rates and fees, which he called the most flexible and equitable route because every user would pay in.
He added that financial support through federal and state grants is unreliable because of lean government budgets—even though that has not stopped environmental agencies from handing down new and more restrictive water quality mandates.
"Hypocrisy does not seem to bother them," Mr. Ciolek said. "They're quite pleased to issue more and more extensive regulations and dictates that require this work to be done, while at the same time very easily eliminating grant funding for it."
Mr. Ciolek said there were "clear advantages to regionalizing this problem," such as keeping total costs down and improving water quality management efforts across the Cape. He characterized current town-level wastewater planning efforts as "all over the map…don't be under the illusion that they're all talking to one another or coordinating their planning, because they're not."
Yet Mr. Ciolek conceded that a major hurdle to overcome is fear among voters that a large, regional entity would cost towns local control. "Government here is very close to the people, and they feel comfortable with being able to call up their selectperson and chat," he said, "and the notion of having some huge bureaucracy out there that they don't control frightens them."
William Doherty, chairman of the county commissioners, advocated for an "aggressive education program" in support of any wastewater management projects, but he admitted that "every education program we've been involved with has been effective up until the time we get to the bill."
"Once the price tag shows up, there's an incremental process that takes place" among project opponents, Mr. Niedzwiecki said. "The first thing that they do is question the science" behind any studies, "the second thing they do is question the engineering, and the third thing they do is vote no at Town Meeting, and that's why we have a lawsuit."
The lawsuit to which Mr. Niedzwiecki referred is pending litigation by the Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) and Buzzards Bay Coalition over the region's alleged failure to adequately address water quality issues. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is the primary target of the pending lawsuit, which alleges that the EPA and Cape Cod have failed to meet their obligations under the federal Clean Water Act to control nitrogen loading in coastal embayments.
The county and the Cape Cod Commission have placed money into a special reserve account to deal with the lawsuit, should it move forward.
In the meantime, Mr. Niedzwiecki said county officials should plan to aggressively lobby members of the Cape's House delegation to support $150,000 to fund a study of wastewater treatment options for the region and their associated costs.
The Senate's version of the Fiscal Year 2012 budget, approved last week, included the funding, which was not in the House version of the budget.
If approved in the final conference budget, the money would be included in the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection's budget, and then administered to the Cape Cod Commission for the study itself, according to information provided by Senate President Therese M. Murray's (D - Plymouth) office.
Mr. Niedzwiecki said he also plans to have existing water quality presentations updated and revamped as part of a renewed outreach and education effort.

As is in many other human endeavors, technological and solution delivery innovations are the mechanisms by which significant cost savings can be achieved. It is widely understood, known and advocated/documneted by the US EPA that no-risk alternatives to the conventional sewerage systems can reduce costs by 50+% - which obviously minimizes the sticker shock. Hopefully one or more Cape Cod leader will enable the alternative approaches to be implemented before the courts take over. Pio Lombardo, P.E., Lombardo Associates, Inc.

While I am all for trying any technology that has a chance to save money the nitrex system still needs lot of evaluation and testing to show its cost effective. Many homes have old cesspools that would have to be changed out with a new complete onsite system for de-nitrification. Nitrex needs at least 10 years of testing before billions are spent. There is no 1 size fits all solution to this problem... nitrogen isnt the real problem on cape cod... its the algae that uses nitrogen as a fertilizer that is actually causing problems. Perhaps we should try using a system that stops the algae from growing, vacuum clean the estuaries and replant the eel grass... would you dig up your yard to get rid of some dandelions?? no you'd find the proper herbicide to kill the weeds..

About Us
Established in 2009, Diabetic Cat Care is a place to learn and practice a leading edge treatment protocol called Tight Regulation (TR) developed by Dr. Elizabeth Hodgkins, DVM. TR has brought 1000's of diabetic cats back to far better health and 100's of those cats into diet-controlled diabetic remission where they are OTJ – Off the Juice. TR for cats is very similar to the way humans treat their own diabetes – the right amount of insulin given at the right time to get and keep BG in normal range as quickly and consistently as possible, combined with proper diet for an obligate carnivore.
Diabetic Cat Care's forum is a friendly, compassionate, global community offering lots of support, and a wealth of knowledge based on shared experiences among members who are diabetic cat owners, just like you. DCC's forum contains our TR College of Knowledge, which includes information on a wide variety of topics that affect our diabetic cats, such as:
- How TR works to quickly improve your diabetic cat's health.
- How to practice TR with PZI, Lantus, Caninsulin and other insulin types.
- How other illnesses and medical conditions affect diabetic cats.
- How properly identify a species appropriate diet for diabetic cats.
Please read the Protocol page to understand more about how Tight Regulation works to cure diabetes in cats and we hope you accept our invitation to learn how to properly care for, and perhaps even cure your cat of Feline Diabetes by joining the Diabetic Cat Care Forum.

The Story Of Khale Episode 1/42:
Welcome to Rellitrea
*New* Just added playback buttons. They're invisible. At the top corners are fast forward and rewind and along the bottom are major scenes.
This episode is a prologue and introduction to the world of Khale. The story itself begins in the next episode, when Khale awakens.
To all those interested in the series, I've just opened the LeafWorthy Forums. Check it out here:
http://www.leafworthy.com /phpBB2/index.php
Watch past the intro before you vote, its worth it.
The song (also in load screen) is Further, by VNV Nation.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars July 28, 2010
Good Job
At first it appeared that it was going to be a simple little flash movie, but then it just kept adding more and more to the 'story'. I don't care about the fact that this is a dream and an introduction to the main story. I may have not liked your other preview clip, but a little boy running across a fantasy world is much more appealing to me than an action video. It tends to add more emotion (although an action clip could do that as well).
Rated 5 / 5 stars July 16, 2010
You know...
...there were some Khale references in Gangsta Bean and Gangsta Bean 2.
Rated 4 / 5 stars July 8, 2010
Not bad, a few flaws.
I just don't see any real story, but that might be on purpose. Keep going though, this isn't bad. By the way, do you like pokemon, because that looked like a masculine Celibi.
Rated 5 / 5 stars June 26, 2010
feels like avatar.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars June 23, 2010
But interesting.
A little more variation would have made it better.
All in all, I liked it.
