We offer two ways to locate information:
Light to medium bodied wines that are high in acid and light to medium fruit. Typically no oak.
Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.
Color is straw green, bright and almost luminous. This wine displays lifted pristine Margaret River Chardonnay fruit typical of the Leeuwin vineyard. The well integrated bouquet has ripe pear skin, figs, and nutty cashews. The subtle integration of French oak provides vanilla notes to this perfumed Chardonnay. Medium in weight, due to the cool ripening period the wine displays deceptive length and mouth filling structure.
The palate shows fresh and vibrant pears, tangy grapefruit and peaches, with the balanced citrus acid giving the wine a delicious elegance and youthfulness. An excellent vintage for Leeuwin Estate Chardonnay, this wine will lend itself to cellaring for a number of years.
"The 2006 Chardonnay Prelude Vineyard was barrel-fermented and aged in one-third new French oak. Medium straw-colored, it offers up an alluring bouquet of buttered toast, spiced apple, and tropical notes. Crisp and refreshing on the palate, it has superior depth, ripe flavors of pineapple and mango, and a lengthy, fruit-filled finish. Drink it over the next four years.

The Wine Advocate
"Light gold. Fresh lime and grapefruit aromas are deepened by smoky lees, butter and hazelnut. Firm and sharply focused, offering a vivacious set of citrus flavors along with green apple and chamomile (this did not go through malo). Finishes with very good grip and persistence. I'd decant this if I were opening it anytime soon as it gained weight and flesh in the open bottle."

Membase 1.7.2 EE Released
Membase EE has been updated to 1.7.2. You'll find additional information and links to release notes pointers here:
There is no updated CE release at this time.
There are a few bugs in this release - the main cluster overview page doesn't scroll the graph anymore unless you refresh the page... also rebalancing is broken.
Let me look into this, sorry for the trouble. I don't think there are general bugs.
I've just double checked with others, and we'd not expect to see either of these issues.
If you're still seeing the log info, it would be great if you could open an issue at couchbase.org/issues and attach your diagnostic logs (the "Generate Diagnostic Report" link found in logs section of the console), we can pick up the conversation over there.
Nevermind - brain fart
Hello guys,
Do you have any time estimate on release date of the 1.7.2 Community Edition?
Not at this time, but will send an update when we know more.
Sorry, do you have any news on the release of 1.7.2 version?
We have been hit pretty hard by the known bugs fixed in this version (MB-4375, MB-4374, MB-4363),
so would really appreciate more information about the release of 1.7.2 Community Edition.
Thank you.
I don't at the moment, will check into it and get back to you.
Do note that 1.7.2 EE is free for use in many circumstances.
I'm sorry for the delay in getting an answer here. The holidays have slowed me up a bit. Will get back to you soon.
Update, we should have a package of CE available next week (the week of Jan 9). It'll likely be early next week.
Can we get some response on some of our other threads? It seems like there is no real community here.... :(
Sorry for the delay in replies. I, for one, always try to jump in and respond on as many as I can. It's been busy since around the holidays.
I'll walk through the other postings here shortly.

Just the other day, Land Rover tossed us a bone by revealing a teaser image and video of its revised Range Rover Sport. Well, now someone at Land Rover has apparently decided to toss us the entire chicken by posting images of the 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport completely camouflage free.
When we saw the teaser image, we noted that the new headlights looked very similar to the Evoque and the larger Range Rover. If these leaked images are, in fact, of the 2014 Land Rover Sport, then our suspicion on the redesigned headlights is correct. What we couldn't see in those teaser images was just how significant the redesign would be, but these leaked images show us that the redesign is extreme.
Front to rear, the Range Rover Sport is completely different. Gone is the flat front and rear ends, leaving a much sportier-looking SUV. In fact, these images look almost like the LR2, Range Rover and Evoque all had their DNA mixed up to make the ultimate hybrid.
Fortunately, we won't have to wait too long to find out if these images are real or not, as the new Range Rover Sport will be unveiled on March 26th.

(Reuters) - Ford Motor Co
The vehicles were built between January 19, 2012, and June 26, 2013, in Michigan. Only vehicles without the optional panoramic glass roof are included in the recall.
Ford said it would install plastic energy-absorbing material under the roof on both sides of the vehicle to correct the problem.
No accidents or injuries have been attributed to the issue, the company said. Tests by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the company uncovered the roof safety issue.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I love my wedding programs! The rich purple is consistent throughout printing and matches what I saw on the screen. The printing is clean and easily read, and the font looks great in person too. I definitely took advantage of paying the extra few cents per card in order to have a more elegant edge cut on the card. I think it added a hint of "something" that gives the program extra personality and it better matches the direction I was going for. I would order these again in a heartbeat."
"Not only did this product ship fast, but they look very nice! I placed the order for these programs(boldly elegant design) on September 30th. The next day, October 1st, I received the photo proof in my email of what the programs would look like after I designed them. I saw something I didn't like, so I fixed the proof and sent back my revisions. Within an hour, I got the revised order of the proof back from WPD and went ahead and finalized my order for shipment. WPD gave me an estimated delivery date of October 10th through the 14th. Well, on the afternoon of October 5th, I received a package from Fed Ex with a box that read "wedding paper divas". I couldn't believe how fast everything came and how great the quality is. Thanks WPD!"
"Recently ordered the matching invitations and response cards. These just complete the set!! I plan on also ordering the matching menu cards as well, once my Fiancé and I finish our tasting! If you are having a classic style wedding, these are perfect! I Also paid extra for the white shimmer. Really adds glam!"
"I managed to put a TON of text in this wedding program and it looks absolutely stunning! I sent back my proof 3 different times and the wonderful person helping me always fixed exactly what I wanted!"
"These programs were perfect for my elegant candlelit evening wedding last week (Oct 13). The paper quality was even better than I expected and they were delivered quickly! I absolutely loved that I was able to edit the picture position and size for the programs. I give 5 stars all around!!"

As a photographer about to shoot a first time nude model, you are burdened with a massive responsibility. Naturally, you always have a responsibility to the model when ever you shoot but think of it like this: perhaps you are shooting the next Shy-Too-Shy, but, if that model does not leave your shoot with a positive experience of working with art nude photographers, they may never pose again. I believe you also have a responsibility to your fellow artists to show just how professional, non-threatening and enjoyable a nude shoot can be. If they are a first time nude model, you are in the position where you could either introduce a stunning new talent to the AN world or could put them off modeling for life. You will be their first impression.
Respect, attitude and some basics of human courtesy:
No matter how many nudes you yourself have shot in the past, it is vitally important to remember that getting naked requires a lot of bravery and anyone willing to do so deserves your respect. It certainly gets easier each time you pose but, no matter how experienced your model is, you must constantly remember that, in getting naked for you, they are placing a massive amount of trust in you.
Reminding yourself of this at all times will help set the tone for your entire shoot.
In addition to this, basics such as ensuring that the model will be comfortable help show that you respect them. As a model, I can not tell you how much it is appreciated if the photographer has given some thought to your comfort. Photographers have a habit of asking extreme things of nude models. You have all seen the photos of nudes in icy lakes, lying across water falls or in the mud as storm clouds brew above them. If this is your style, so be it: the model will know what they are getting in for but try to make them as comfortable as possible. If you are inside, provide a heater. If you are outside, bring blankets, a thermos of hot chocolate or anything that acknowledges that you appreciate the discomfort they are putting themselves through for you and your art. There is nothing worse than seeing a model blue with cold, trying to appear elegant at sunrise on a chilled winter morning while the photographer, rugged up in copious amounts of jumpers, shouts instructions from inside their cocoon of comfort.
Starting out:
Do not dash towards the nudes! If at all possible, only shoot nudes after you have worked with the model on previous, clothed shoots. If you do not produce good art together clothed, it is doubtful that you will be able to produce it nude.
On the day that you plan to shoot nudes, still take your time: work through some clothed sets and, once you get to Nude Time, do not rush straight to your Shot Of The Day. Perhaps there is a particular pose or image which you wish to capture but it will be undoubtedly be better when both you and the model are relaxed so do not try to capture it first.
(Hint: I always start with a 'light test'. I usually don't need it, as I've been shooting them clothed for some time before they undress but it gives them a chance to see that you are working on your side of the camera and are not just along for the ride. More importantly, it give me a chance to say 'This is just a light test so pull your worst face possible.' which is always my favourite part of the shoot.)
I usually start with some back shots and let the model decide when they want to turn around and be shot front on.
Give them something to think about! I cannot stress how much this step has benefited my shoots. There is nothing harder for a model than just being told to 'look pretty', particularly if they are nervous. Give them a way to engage their brain so that 'oh heck! I'm naked!' isn't holding a monopoly over their thoughts.
(Hint: The best trick I have found is to give them a prop and tell them to experiment with different ways to relate to it. I recently completed a series on my other account (TeamHyphenPants) where we gave the models a picture frame. They could peer through it, step through it, frame a part of their body, drape over it and so on and so forth. The instant someone started to look a bit uncomfortable we would pass them the frame. It worked a treat.
Another good object is a piece of material. If they need to, they can even wrap it around their body and reveal as much or as little as they need to. Most will slowly let more and more show until they can pose without it.)
:thumb87432010: :thumb90796594: :thumb58744528:
Compliments are a difficult thing, particularly for an inexperienced photographer shooting a nervous nude. Does it go without saying that it is vitally important to keep compliments clean? That you never compliment a models breasts? Keeping compliments above the neck line is usually a good idea. Hair, eyes and smile are nice, safe things to compliment. Female photographers shooting female models can usually get away with a 'damn, if I looked like that, I would never put clothes on again' but really, just be careful, respectful and professional.
:thumb80308210: :thumb66384797:
This leads me neatly to the final tip:
At all times BE PROFESSIONAL!
I can not stress this enough. As I have already stated, with a new model, you have a duty to show them just how professional and positive the world of Art Nudes can be but with any model, photographer, lighting assistant, MUA, stylist or casual observer, you must maintain a professional attitude! I am going to go out on a limb here (and irritate quite a few prominent photographers on this site) by saying that I consider photographers sleeping with models they have met through photography (as opposed to a partner that models for them) appalling. As a photographer, particularly shooting a new nude model, you are in a position of power and responsibility. Act like it. DO NOT touch a model, even to brush hair from their face without first asking permission. They are not there to be objects of sexual desire but to help you make art and, if you are looking them at them as a sex object, how on earth are you going to be able to make good art?
Believe it or not, there are photographers out there who 'specialise' in shooting first time/new nude models and sleep with many of them.
This leads me to have a few words to say to models, wanting to test out the art nude world:
For your first nude shoot, YOU PICK THE PHOTOGRAPHER! There is time enough later for working with people who have approached you but, for the first shoot, select someone on the basis of their portfolio. Once you have made contact with them, send them examples (from their own and other's portfolios) of what you want to create. You control the shoot. You decide how much to take off when.
So summing up, I hope that helps one or two people! There are stunning photographers and models out there looking to make amazing nude art. Take a risk and contact some of them. Just remember to be respectful, professional and relaxed. Your work will grow as a result!

Business support group is wound up in Keswick
Last updated at 07:46, Friday, 04 May 2012
A group which spent six years working to boost business in Keswick has been scrapped.
Keswick Business Improvement District was launched in 2006 as a partnership between business and local government.
All eligible businesses paid a levy on top of their business rates and that money was spent on projects to increase trade.
Its work included the creation of a new car park at Fitz Park, support for events like the jazz festival and the production of shopping guides.
The initial five-year term ended in March last year and a ballot of traders then revealed that, while most traders who voted wanted it to continue, a second poll based on the rateable values of businesses was lost.
Some of the original committee stayed in place and worked towards building up a fresh proposal to put to a new vote last month.
This time, the vote based on rateable value was won, with 60 per cent support, but overall 55 per cent of businesses were against relaunching the scheme.
In total 271 businesses voted out of the 547 polled.
The group is now being wound up and its remaining funds – a few hundred pounds – will be passed to another organisation in the town to be used for the benefit of businesses.
Chairman Paul Titley said he felt the town had missed a huge opportunity.
He urged businesses to join Keswick Tourism Association – the only organisation in the town now working to develop business – to ensure their voices were heard.

Nicholas Sparks
|Nicholas Sparks
Sparks signing autographs in 2006
|Nicholas Charles Sparks
December 31, 1965
Omaha, Nebraska, United States
|Novelist, screenwriter, producer
|Romantic fiction
|Cathy Sparks (m. 1989)
|Miles, Ryan, Landon, Lexie & Savannah
Nicholas Charles Sparks (born December 31, 1965) is an American novelist, screenwriter and producer. He has published seventeen novels and a non-fiction book. Eight of his romantic-drama novels have been adapted to film.
Early life[edit]
Nicholas Charles Sparks was born on December 31, 1965, in Omaha, Nebraska, to Patrick Michael Sparks, a professor of business, and Jill Emma Marie Sparks (née Thoene), a homemaker and an optometrist's assistant. He was the middle of three children, with an older brother, Michael Earl "Micah" Sparks (1964–) and a younger sister, Danielle "Dana" Sparks (1966–2000), who died at the age of 33 from a brain tumor. Sparks has said that she is the inspiration for the main character in his novel A Walk to Remember.
Sparks was raised Roman Catholic,[1] and is of German, Czech, English, and Irish ancestry.[2] He and his wife are Catholics and are raising their children in the Catholic faith.[citation needed]
His father was pursuing graduate studies at University of Minnesota and University of Southern California, and the family moved a great deal, so by the time Sparks was eight, he had lived in Watertown, Minnesota, Inglewood, California, Playa del Rey, California, and Grand Island, Nebraska which was his mother's hometown during his parents' one year separation. In 1974 his father became a professor of business at California State University, Sacramento teaching behavioral theory and management. His family settled in Fair Oaks, California, and remained there through Nicholas's high school days. He graduated in 1984 as valedictorian from Bella Vista High School, then enrolling at the University of Notre Dame, having received a full track and field scholarship. In his freshman year, his team set a record for the 4 x 800 relay.[3] Sparks majored in business finance and graduated with honors in 1988. He also met his future wife that year, Cathy Cote from New Hampshire, while they were both on spring break. They married on July 22, 1989 and moved to New Bern, North Carolina.[4]
While still in school in 1985, Sparks penned his first (never published) novel, The Passing, while home for the summer between freshman and sophomore years at Notre Dame. He wrote another novel in 1989, also unpublished, The Royal Murders.
After college, Sparks sought work with publishers or to attend law school, but was rejected in both attempts. He then spent the next three years trying other careers, including real estate appraisal, waiting tables, selling dental products by phone and starting his own manufacturing business.
In 1990, Sparks co-wrote with Billy Mills Wokini: A Lakota Journey to Happiness and Self-Understanding.[5] The book was published by Feather Publishing, Random House, and Hay House. Sales for this book approximated 50,000 copies in its first year after release.[6]
In 1992, Sparks began selling pharmaceuticals and in 1993 was transferred to Washington, DC. It was there that he wrote another novel in his spare time, The Notebook.[7] Two years later, he was discovered by literary agent Theresa Park, who picked The Notebook out of her agency's slush pile, liked it, and offered to represent him. In October 1995, Park secured a $1 million advance for The Notebook from Time Warner Book Group. The novel was published in October 1996 and made the New York Times best-seller list in its first week of release.
With the success of his first novel, he moved to New Bern, NC. After his first publishing success, he wrote several international bestsellers. Eight of his novels have been made into films: Message in a Bottle (1999), A Walk to Remember (2002), The Notebook (2004), Nights in Rodanthe (2008), Dear John (2010), The Last Song (2010), The Lucky One (2012), and Safe Haven (2013).
According to his website, he has also sold the screenplay adaptations of True Believer and At First Sight, though it is uncertain whether either film will be made.[8]
Sparks released his 18th novel, The Longest Ride, on September 17, 2013.
Personal life and philanthropy[edit]
Sparks and wife, Cathy live in New Bern, North Carolina with their three sons, Miles, Ryan, and Landon; and twin daughters, Lexie and Savannah.[9] His son Ryan has autism.[10]
Sparks donated $900,000 for a new, all-weather tartan track to New Bern High School along with his time to help coach the New Bern High School track team and a local club track team as a volunteer head coach.[11]
Sparks contributes to other local and national charities, as well, including the Creative Writing Program (MFA) at the University of Notre Dame by funding scholarships, internships and annual fellowships. In 2008, Entertainment Weekly reported that Sparks and his wife had donated "close to $10 million" to start a Christian, international, college-prep private school, The Epiphany School of Global Studies, which emphasizes travel and lifelong learning.[12][13]

I joined the WJBK Fox 2 news team as a reporter in March of 1984. (Click here to watch a special tribute to Al's 25th Anniversary at FOX 2)
My broadcasting career began at KOKY radio in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 1969 as news director. Following that two-year stint, I moved back to Detroit, working as reporter and news director at WCXI-AM and WGPR-FM. then at WJLB-FM as news and public affairs director.
As a broadcast journalist, I have won numerous awards. In 1978, "The Otto Wendell Story" was recognized with two United Press International and two Associated Press first-place awards. In 1980, "Merry-Go-Round of Denial: The Black Alcoholic" won awards from United Press International, the Associated Press and the National Association of Black Journalists. In 1981, "Crime by Color, Black on Black" received an Associated Press award, the Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award and an award from the National Association of Black Journalists. And in 1991, "Motown: Where Did Our Love Go?" received an Associated Press award and was nominated for an Emmy from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
I believe that education continues to be the foundation of success. I have a bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff and an associate's degree in business administration from the Detroit College of Business.

A memorial was held Saturday for a young valley man -- a prominent and up and coming boxer, who was killed suddenly and violently.
Sulem Urbina wiped away the tears as she stood inside the gym where her brother fought -- a final farewell for the young champion.
"I was so proud of him and I still am so proud of him.. just talking about his accomplishments, how good he was, his strength and speed.. it really puts a smile on my face," she said.
A huge crowd gathered at Knockout Boxing Club to honor Alexis Urbina.
A student at South Mountain High School, the 17-year-old stayed home from school on September 3. That afternoon, his mother found him beaten and unconscious. A few days later, he died from his injuries.
"He was a good friend. He always made us laugh. He played jokes and every time we felt bad, he would talk to us to cheer us up. I would tell him everything," said Salvador Nicolas.
Alexis Santiago added, "He was a great boxer. He liked to fight inside.. he had a great style, he was a great kid, a humble kid."
Urbina was an Olympic hopeful -- ranked number one in his age and weight class and on his way to Kazakhstan for an international boxing competition.
His death was a devastating blow to the boxing community and to those who loved him the most.
"It hurts really bad because even though I know when these guys are caught it will not bring him back, but it'll make us feel a little better to know that they are not going to do this to somebody else," said Sulem.
Alexis had trained with the Knockout Boxing Club since he began his career when he was 9-years-old. His friends and family members sent out a plea, asking anyone with any information to please come forward.

Endpoint Protection is a tool for viewing the status of ESET deployments across entire client networks and centrally managing administrative tasks, creating a more secure network.
"Elementra's ability to successfully integrate both Kaseya and ESET software results from our close working relationship with both vendors," says Duanne O'Brien, Elementra's VP of Engineering. "The size and complexity of the development of Endpoint Protection version 1.1 required a significantly deeper integration with both Kaseya and ESET. The assistance provided by both of these business partners meant we could focus on the core functionality while tapping into expertise where and when needed, resulting in a more reliable and integrated product for our customers."
"Customers are understandably pleased to finally have integration between two essential software products," says Marek Drummond, Elementra's VP Business Development. "Managed Service Providers now have a single pane of glass to manage their ESET endpoints, saving time and providing a more effective service. Dashboards, recognisable icons, colour-coded text, and configurable alerts make it much easier to see where problems lie and proactively address any issues. It's a good result for MSPs and their customers".
"By creating a unique architecture and common APIs, Elementra now opens ESET integration into Kaseya", said Ignacio Sbampato, ESET Chief Sales and Marketing Officer. "IT providers will benefit from secure client and server management via a centralized tool, allowing them to view the ESET deployments across their client networks using the ESET Remote Administrator console, view endpoint protection status and perform scans or updates. We are delighted to contribute to effective visibility and control over ESET award-winning endpoints, assisting Kaseya users to manage their IT security effectively", add Sbampato.
"The combination of the Kaseya IT service management framework and the Elementra ESET solution represents an additional endpoint security opportunity for IT professionals. The Elementra ESET plug-in for Kaseya is another example of the growing demand for seamless centralized service management and further adds to the Kaseya ecosystem," said Jim Alves, EVP OEM & Strategic Initiatives, Kaseya. "The Elementra ESET plug-in extends the overall functionality of the Kaseya system for centrally managed endpoint security from within a single pane of glass."
The Endpoint Protection module can be downloaded at www.elementra.com. (continued...)

High Hazels press release 14th July
ON HEIST OR HIT RECORDS"If you're a fan of The Smiths, or The Coral at their most melodic, then this may be right up your street" The Guardian FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ON 14TH JULY 2014 "Do you want to misbehave?" will be the question on everyone's lips after hearing the first single from Sheffield balladeers High Hazels' upcoming debut album. The release of 'Misbehave' on Heist or Hit Records on 15th September will undoubtedly mark the beginning of something special for James Leesley (vocals/guitar), Scott Howes (guitar), Paul Barlow (bass guitar) and Anthony Barlow (drums). The steel city is renowned for producing songwriters of mordant wit and winsome austere, and High Hazels are no exception. They are born storytellers. The young quartet of brothers and childhood friends thoughtfully perfected their craft in the backwaters of Handsworth. These are boys who own chest waders, read the Angling Times, and go to their Nan's for Sunday dinner, but they've traded melancholy for a flirtatious groove on 'Misbehave'. Their intention was to keep it simple and let the psychedelic guitar do the sweet-talking. The "debauchery-tinted party tune" effuses the raw vigor of RnB and '60s songs, inspired by many Saturday nights spent at King Bee in their hometown. "Lyrically, it tries to capture the excitement and nervousness that often comes when pursuing saucy companionship," says Leesley. "We wanted it to be a fresh and exciting song that would sound equally good sat listening intently at home, or at 3am in a club," adds P. Barlow. Their intention was to keep it simple and let the psychedelic guitar do the sweet-talking. 'Misbehave' follows the release of their debut single 'Hearts Are Breaking' on 7" in 2013, and their debut EP 'In The Half Light', which was released in April. High Hazels are set to swoon and give you a feeling you can't shake.
'Misbehave' is released on Heist or Hit Records (HEIST075) on 15th September

Using a simple technique, a researcher creates a benign botnet to survey the breadth of the Internet, and finds a back door flung wide open and beckoning the bad guys.
Apple's recent AirPort and Time Capsule updates may break IPv6 tunneling features in the devices, requiring a downgrade for those who use these features.

Free song from The Dears
The Dears' promo people encouraged me to share this free download—"Blood," from the band's forthcoming album Degeneration Street—with you readers. I like The Dears, a shoegaze-ish pop rock band from Montreal, and have to say this song's OK—it sounds a little '90s. Still, free music! Thanks, The Dears.

Richard Bird celebrated his 66th birthday on Monday, one day after he was pulled from a sinkhole that swallowed him while he was walking his two dogs with his wife.
With bruises on his face and his left arm in a sling, Bird told FOX 9 News it's still too soon to visit the site where the accident occurred -- but he's thankful for all the emergency crews and Good Samaritans who came to his aid on Sunday.
"I feel very fortunate," he said. "I could have been hurt a lot worse."
Bird said he knows the torn left rotator cuff will eventually heal, and he's not blaming anyone for the terrifying tumble he took on Mother's Day.
"I think it was an extreme fluke," Bird told FOX 9. "I don't think anyone knew the situation existed."
The situation was a sinkhole just off a sidewalk, turning a sunny stroll with his wife and their two dogs into a plunge into the Earth.
"I stepped on the grass and I remember doing that, but I don't remember falling," Bird recalled.
The hole at the corner of West 102nd Street and Scarborough Road was more than six-feet deep, and Bird explained that it was like a trap door opened up beneath him.
"The next thing I knew, I woke up with my face in the mud," he said.
Neither he nor his wife had a cell phone, but a Good Samaritan nearby called 911 after his wife went for help.
"I think I was there a good 40, 45 minutes," Bird said.
Emergency responders were able to extract him from the sinkhole, which investigators believe was caused by soil seeping into an underground pipe.
After the rescue, a new puzzle popped up -- who will repair the problem? Bloomington Public Works says it isn't the city's responsibility.
"There's some shared common space between some apartments and condominiums," explained Scott Anderson. "They have some maintenance agreements and access agreements."
Anderson said he has spoken with the owners of the Tarnhill, Lockmore and Summerhill apartments to get the problem fixed.
As for Bird, he said he probably won't head back to the area any time soon -- but he's still holding on to his sense of humor while his two dogs help him recover.
Bird will need to undergo several months of rehab for his injury, but he hopes to return as a substitute teacher at Jefferson High School in Bloomington in the fall.

Boule honored by Boy Scouts
The Blaine bed and breakfast Smuggler's Inn was recently honored by the Mt. Baker Council of the Boy Scouts of America with the Century Award as Business of the Year for Whatcom County. The award was presented by Bellingham dentist Mike Oswald, president of the Whatcom district of the four-county Mt. Baker council.
The award recognizes local businesses for their service not only to scouting but to the community at large. Smuggler's Inn was chosen for its involvement in the Pacific Arts Association and for having participated as a major donor in local fundraising auctions for the Boys and Girls Club, Habitat for Humanity, Bridget Collins House, the Bellingham Festival Music as well as many other local and regional efforts.
"I firmly believe in giving back to the community, and the more I give back the more comes my way," said Bob Boule, owner and operator of Smuggler's Inn. He has been centrally involved with the Blaine Jazz Festival for Teens, using his B & B as the official festival dormitory for out of town students and instructors.
currently serves as the president of the festival's
parent organization, the Pacific Arts Association. Under
his leadership funds are being raised for the Vigil, Blaine
sculptor Bob McDermott's bronze statue honoring the
fishing families who have watched over Blaine while waiting
for their relatives to return from the fishing grounds.
Smuggler's Inn is only the fifth recipient of the award in the last decade. Other county businesses that have been recognized are St. Joseph Hospital, Haggen Foods, Diehl Ford, Brooks Lumber.
"That's good company," said Boule, "because hopefully it says that Blaine is starting to be noticed as a great place to run a business."

Garnet Hill Signature Wisteria Flannel Cases 7 7
Amazing quality I have purchased several items out of this line of flannel from Garnet Hill over the last 21 years. I love them. I still have pieces of flannel from this particular line and blankets from 18 years ago. The print on this piece is so beautiful in person. I love it! June 27, 2014
wonderful flannel Love your German Flannel - so fluffy and continues being soft for years. Nice print too. March 2, 2014
Flannel Bedding Absolutely top quality and beautiful flannel bedding - makes us want to stay in bed all week-end!! February 19, 2014
Even though it's the fuzzy kind... I usually like "flat" flannel sheets, but the wisteria pattern is so pretty and goes beautifully with the pomegranate top sheet I already had. Now I LOVE the fuzziness and its cozy warmth. The two textures complement each other for a fine night's sleep! February 18, 2014
Warm and Cozy I am very particular about the sheets I purchase. These are soft, warm, cozy and feel thick and luxurious on a cold winter's night. In addition they are pretty. February 18, 2014
Drab Looking I just received my sheet set and was surprised at how drab and dull the colors are...nothing like the photo online. I would not recommend purchasing these sheets as they are just 'eh'. February 7, 2014

|Bristol- past time to go
|Discussion Forum

Thread started: Nov 9 2010, 4:46 PM EST Watch
This country is going downhill. Ignorance, lack of class, uneducated, backward people lacking merit, intelligence, and ability are ruining us. The same is happening with politics. Christine O'Donnell, Sarah Palin, Bristol's "baby daddy" and others are making this country look like white trash. Bristol Palin is one of the worst dancers and she is overrated each week. Obviously, there is outside influence. Far better dancers have been voted off. This is the first time on DWTS that the worst dancer has been allowed to stay on for so long. This is going to kill the show. I have stopped watching. Florence Henderson was superior to this animal killer. If it were not for Mark, there would be no dancing. He has to work 10 times as hard to make it look as if there is activity on the dance floor.
This teen activist, sexually active teen , that is, is being rewarded where others would be disparaged and criticized for hypocrisy and irresponsible behavior. Instead, she is rewarded and applauded. This is disgusting.
Definite need to change judging so this never happens again. What is the point in the others working so hard, if Palin only needs to show up?

|What are the Qualifications for DWTS Contestants !??
|Discussion Forum
|Nov 20 2010, 2:54 PM EST by SlikLizrd
Thread started: Nov 20 2010, 6:06 AM EST Watch
It has been said that to become a contestant, you must first be a celebrity. With that hurdle in mind, I must conclude that being picked as a "celebrity" is as simple as: (1) Become 30 pounds over weight. (2) Sleep around with several various partners before adulthood. (3) Become pregnant. (4) Be able to choose being a game show contestant over staying home and raising your newborn child. (5) Have a willingness and desire to promote teenage pregnancy throughout the country on national television. (6) Have your quitter/loser mother and her political extremist cronies condoning and supporting the aforementioned anti-social behavior. And (7), The unhealthy craving to become the standard for the entire Nation.
That sounds pretty clear-cut to me, and I would imagine that every low-life, lay-around teeny-bopper with an IQ as big as her shoe size would qualify -- except for the wolf-shooting, religious crackpot mother that thinks she's actually a female bear.
Having a mother that pretends she belongs to another species is what makes Bristol Palin so eerily unique, and THAT's why we have Bristol instead of some other bimbette stinkin' up the show !!!

How can DWTS not have the standings revealed after the Performance show each week first of all and also not even show how you got the public vote numbers to prove who won each round? They tell you who is in first and last and that's all. If your fav star is in 2nd last many might not vote for them since they think they aren't in last. Now do you understand that DWTS fans want to see "proof" of who won and lost each week? They should show how the totals are added up (I know how, but most do not) and prove how your voting counts very much.

|Time to Get Rid of Brook and get rid of the politics
|Dancing With The Stars Fan Site

Thread started: Nov 18 2010, 3:15 AM EST Watch
Anytime you choose to bring politics into a competition, your image will be destroyed and this is what is happening. DWTS I thought was a beautiful competition each episode to showcase stars. This is the first year you have not done that. You need to change the way the voting is done. I do admire those who come on to the show with no talent whatsoever and I watch them grow. That is a great feeling but when you have real talent out there such as Jennifer Grey and Brandi who shine every week and look as good as the pros, HOW, I ask HOW in the world can you allow the politics to take over and dismiss those who indeed deserve the opportunity to win. I am appalled.
AND, please get rid of Brook. She is terrible. She comes across the cameras as snobbish, no heart or feelings and likes to ask infantile questions in a gossipy way. Thank goodness I record the program first so I an fast forward through any conversations Brook has standing beside the co-host or the stars. She is awful!!!
I also feel it is time to change the judges. Either get rid of all three or consider replacing one of them. When the judges start letting their feelings interfere with their job (as Bruno and Carrie Ann have done), it is time to move them out.

Thread started: Nov 18 2010, 6:05 PM EST Watch
No, Idk if it's rigged. But I do think it's all about popularity.
Shawn Johnson won based on popularity (she wasn't that good)
Nicole won based on popularity ( Evan and Anna was better)
Erin Andrews wasn't good enough for the finals
Kelly Osbourne?? Come on! She didn't deserve to make it to the finals. I think everyone had sympathy for her!!! She sucked!
Jennifer Grey?? Yeah she is good but she doesn't deserve perfect tens almost everytime! She is not that good! Kyle Massey is better! I think Kyle does deserve all tens for once.
I do think Bristol is not that bad. She is a slow dancer and she doesn't dance 90 mph like that other dancers. Yeah she forgot her moves once but Jennifer and Dereck has fallen or tripped a few times, just like he did last year with Nicole.
Kurt and Florence got the boot too soon. Sorry! But true.
With that in mind, Bristol "got tens" in promoting DWTS. I have never seen so much talk about DWTS in my life until now. lol
I think Kyle & Bristol deserve to be in the finals but I think Brandy would have taken Jennifer's spot if Maks' dancing style wasn't so boring. He needs to be more creative in dancing. But then again, Brandy doesn't have a huge fan base. So who knows.
Maybe DWTS will hand out two awards next year One for popularity and one for actual talent lol

Please tell me is just a rumor!!!!!!!
I will stop watching DWTS once they show same sex couples!!! DWTS was one of the few family shows that families could sit down and watch together.
DWTS will loose ratings once they show something that many will reject.
If you want to be gay, then be gay.
But you don't have to show everybody. I'm tired of everyone forcing their lifestyle on everyone. Keep your sex life in your own bedroom and off my tv and out of my life!

|DWTS- Bristol Palin

Thread started: Nov 19 2010, 4:14 PM EST Watch
I am a nurse, each week our entire floor watches as we can and we all vote. After this last week, we have decided as a group to stop watching DWTS- we have watched it since the first season. The reason? We have nothing against Bristol Palin but this is a show about who makes the most progress to become the best dancer. While Bristol has improved, she cannot hold a candle to Audrina (we did not like her either), Brandy, Jennifer or even Kyle. Not to be mean but anyone can see that shes a poor dancer and there is no reason for her to still be here unless the voting has been tampered with. This is a show we have enjoyed immensely but as it is obviously rigged, its a waste of our time and money to watch and vote. And while the producers continue to make excuses for her and no effort to recognize the obvious and correct the situation- that its not skill keeping her here and letting talented dancers go, we feel that DWTS has lost the quality, grace and integrity it once had. Its sad, this has become such a part of our Monday and Tuesday nights we hate to see it come to an end. Best wishes to all. Tawnya Hale

well maybe its time the judges votes should count for 55% or more of the votes. they may play favorites but they are the ones that are SUPPOSED to know actually how the dances should go. its just unbelievable that Bristol is still there. she has improved but still not the quality of the other dancers . guess its all about the ratings though and no matter what the fans think or how they vote, whoever the network thinks will keep the ratings up will hang on to dance another day. really stinks if thats the case.

I love ballroom dancing. DWTS used to be one of my favorite shows until you allowed the show to become a political farce over a no talent teenager who happen to have a no talent mother in politics. I thought the show was suppose to match famous celebrities with professional dancers. Bristol Palin is not a celebrity. She is a poor role model for teen age girls. This show does not reflect the skill and elegance that is involved in real ballroom dancing. Bristol Palin has gven the art of this dancing a bad impression to the public. I don't blame the judges, because I think they make good decisions. I blame the show for allowing the viewing audience to make the final decisions. The average viewer do not know the difference between a ballroom and a football field. This is very unfair to really talented dancers who get voted off because someone else is popular. I truly hope that DWTS lose most of the viewing audience and is taken off the air. If you can not be fair to people who work hard and do well, then you should not be on the air. I will never watch the show again. Most of the people I know agree that we will no longer watch your show. I will use that time to practice real ballroom dancing so I will not look as stupid as Bristol did on your show.

Wednesday, 12:55 PM EST | Post edited: Wednesday, 12:57 PM EST
It's an old article that you may have seen before, but have you seen the above page on this site? It references an article from TMZ citing salary info from Season 9's Shawn Johnson's contract:
- Guaranteed $125,000 for appearing on show
- An additional $10,000 per week for weeks 3 and 4
- An additional $20,000 per week for weeks 5-7
- An additional $30,000 per week for weeks 8-9
- An additional $50,000 per week for weeks 10-11
The total for making it to the final 2 would be $365,000! Training is a minimum of 20 hours per week.
So they get paid about $1500 an hour to "dance". Really???!!!!!! This is exactly what American Idol is all about. Getting paid and the Bling-Bling record deal so you don't have to actually work for a living and save your $$$. Obviously certain performers try their best and don't use politics to abuse the system, but the Palin family has taken it to another level. Shame on you and your cronies for having to ploy your victory by doing what you do best. Good luck in the future now that everybody knows how you play the game. The T-Baggers can pack their ***** and it's hilarious that even in Alaska the write in candidate beat the T-Bagger. That is America saying get out now and stay out.

Now that it is clear that the at-hme voting for Ms Palin has been distorted by pro Tea Party fanatics, the next step for Ms Palin is to restire from the competition. And ABC bears part of the blame since it is either unwilling or unable to insure the validity of the at-home voting. The whole show is a farce and no one should watch the finals.

UTICA, N.Y. — A brawl between two District V American Legion teams has resulted in both teams being barred from postseason play in 2014, New York State American Legion Baseball Chairman Bruce Mayfield announced in a press release Wednesday.
The action stems from a fight between New Hartford Post 1376 and Whitestown Post 1113 that occurred during the July 26 district championship game at Murnane Field.
New York State American Legion Baseball also has placed both teams' coaches on probation and suspended five players, and is recommending the teams do joint community service in the future.
The specifics of the ruling are as follows:
•Both teams will be ineligible for postseason district playoffs, and must play a complete league schedule or they will be suspended from playing in 2015.
•Coaches for both teams who were present at the July 26 game will be on probation for the 2014 season. Any violation of probation will result in suspension.
"A violation will consist of any of the following," Mayfield said. "Ejection from a game; unsportsmanlike conduct that discredits the American Legion Baseball Program by the coach, player or team; forfeit of any league game during the 2014 season."
•Two Whitestown Post players are suspended indefinitely due to "malicious unsportsmanlike conduct."
•One Whitestown Post player is suspended for nine league games.
•One New Hartford Post player is suspended for six league games.
•One New Hartford Post player is suspended for three league games.
Mayfield said the punishment was due to the unsportsmanlike behavior the teams displayed during the brawl, which was "a discredit" to the American Legion, according to the release.
"Nationwide, we have taught hundreds of thousands of young Americans the importance of sportsmanship, good health and active citizenship," Mayfield said in the release. "American Legion Baseball has been, and continues to be, a stepping stone to manhood for young men who have gone on to serve their country or community, raise families or even play the sport at the highest level."

LEWISBURG, Pa. — Donald Simanek will give the lecture, "Perpetual Motion, Perpetual Obsession: A History of Impossible Machines," Tuesday, April 13, at 7:30 p.m. in Room 268, Olin Science Building, at Bucknell University.
The lecture, which is open to the public without charge, is part of Bucknell's Martin and Arlene Cummings Lectureship Series.
Professor emeritus of physics at Lock Haven University, Simanek is co-author with John Holden of Science Askew. A graduate of the University of Iowa and Penn State University, he taught physics for more than 37 years.
Simanek also is curator of The Museum of Unworkable Devices, which he calls "a celebration of fascinating devices that don't work. It houses diverse examples of the perverse genius of inventors who refused to let their thinking be intimidated by the laws of nature." The museum may be found at http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/museum/unwork.htm
His educational website, which has received favorable notice in Science, The Chronicle of Higher Education, The Physics Teacher and The London Sunday Times, may be found at http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek
Simanek also will give the class seminar, "Legends, Lies and Cherished Myths of Science History," during his visit.
The Martin and Arlene Cummings Lectureship was established in 1995 to provide annual lectures and residencies by distinguished scholars who will discuss and speak on the history of science, scientific inquiry and the effects of science on culture, politics and the human condition.
Previous speakers in the series were Daniel Boorstin, former Librarian of Congress; Howard Gest, an early member of the Manhattan Project who signed the Szilard petition against using atomic weapons; and Ronald Green, a biomedical ethicist who discussed the Human Genome Project.
