New Hyde Park Village Hall was all aglow on Saturday, Dec. 1, as the village hosted its annual Christmas tree lighting and magic show. Valley National Bank and the Village of New Hyde Park Cultural Commission sponsored the event, which was held at the Marcus Christ Community Center.
"On behalf of the Village of New Hyde Park, I'd like to welcome you all to the annual tree lighting ceremony," Trustee Donald B. Barbieri said to a standing-room-only crowd. "I want to first thank Rich DeMartino and Mary Durkin from Valley National Bank for sponsoring the event today. They've been good friends of ours for many, many years," he said. Indeed, as in previous years, DeMartino and Durkin presented a check for the event's magic show. This year, guests were entertained by Amore, a magician who engaged audience members of all ages.
"I want to take one more second to thank Lisa Miranda from our Cultural Commission," Barbieri continued. "We all went through this horrible month and it's wonderful that we can move right into this terrific season and all be here together to kick this off and enjoy it together."
The magic show was followed by live holiday music performed by the New Hyde Park Memorial High School choir and band.
While the choir sang its final song and the band played its final tune, the sun sank deeper, setting the stage for the main event of the day. As guests prepared to head outdoors onto the front lawn of Village Hall to witness the tree lighting, they received one more treat: Teachers from Little Treasures Nursery School surprised the children in the room by giving each of them a gift.
Once outdoors, guests heard the sirens then saw the bright lights of a New Hyde Park fire truck, which stopped in front of village hall carrying a very special passenger. Santa Claus jumped down from the truck and made his way through the crowd, stopping along the way to greet children and listen to their Christmas wishes. Before long, he made his way up the front steps of village hall and with help from Barbieri, DeMartino, Durkin, Deputy Mayor Robert A. Lofaro and Trustee Lawrence J. Montreuil, Santa flipped the switch to illuminate the village's Christmas tree.
With that, the holiday season officially began in New Hyde Park.

Sewanhaka Indians Head football coach George Kasimatis told his team to expect a dogfight in this weeks game against the New Hyde Park Gladiators, and he was right after its 35-21 victory last week.
"All the kids know each other really well, it's always competitive when we play each other," he said.
Thursday, 09 October 2014 00:00
The Sewanhaka Indians relied heavily on its offense in the first two victories and head coach George Kasimatis relies on one player to set the tone for his group; senior, running back Brenton Mighty.
Mighty is versatile as a running back, as he possesses the ability to run hard between the tackles, lower his shoulder and run into the defender, or run to the outside and break one deep. He also has good hands and is utilized by quarterback Elijah Tracey, as a receiver out of the backfield.
"He makes such a difference in the run game," said Kasimatis. "Teams have to respect that and it opens up the pass and the possibility for a lot of play action passes."

Officers honored for helping crack down on aggressive drivers
Updated On: Jun 20 2013 05:00:45 PM CDT
Police officers are being honored for going above and beyond to keep the roads in Berks County safe.
Nine officers received certificates at an event in Exeter Township on Thursday.
The officers worked to crack down on aggressive drivers during a state-funded enforcement effort, officials said.
Eighteen police departments in Berks took part in the enforcement. The impact of the program is clear, officials said.
"Every year that we go out there and do the enforcement on those roadways, the crash statistics have gone down. So, it definitely works as a result of the extra enforcement, police presence on those roadways," said Edward Boothman, law enforcement liaison coordinator.
Another aggressive driving crackdown is planned from July 8 to Aug. 15, officials said.

Sharing of 'Good Ideas' Vital to Solve Healthcare Challenges in 2013
Thanks yet again to Twitter, I recently came across an article on the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) site, Young Leaders Transform the Future. The article provides a brief outline of the projects designed by RWJF's first 10 Young Leader Award recipients. The projects, and those who designed them, are so impressive that I felt obligated to share them in hopes they may add additional spark to an idea percolating within a reader, inspire a new collaboration, or be used as a solution to an existing healthcare challenge. Following are three of the award-winning Young Leaders, and a description of their projects as food for thought. Follow the link above to RWJF site for a description of all 10 projects, and more on the work being done to generate new healthcare solutions:
Ruben Amarasingham, MD, MBA
An algorithm developed by Amarasingham's group spots patients whose social conditions put them at high risk for relapse after discharge from the hospital. Using this breakthrough technology, Parkland Hospital in Dallas has cut its 30-day readmission rate among Medicare heart-failure patients by a stunning 40 percent, a $500,000 savings that has sparked nationwide interest in Amarasingham's technology.
Naa Oyo Kwate, PhD
With startling comprehensiveness and originality, Kwate video-documents urban neighborhoods to capture and analyze the ubiquity of racist symptoms and messaging. Lately, she has begun to talk back to the urban environment via billboard messages that lay bare—and hopefully defuse—racism's destructiveness to human health.
Raina Merchant, MD, MS
Blending social media and tournament theory with an emergency physician's passion to save lives, Merchant mapped the location of every defibrillator in Philadelphia. Next she wants manufacturers to install a GPS chip in defibrillators worldwide so your cell phone will automatically lead you to the nearest one.
The sharing of these Young Leader's projects is in the spirit of Stephen Johnson, whose TED Talk is included below, and who believes that good ideas take time and input from others to truly take shape and become reality. If more writers, storytellers, documentarians, healthcare providers, entrepreneurs, tech-savvy creatives, patient advocates and others share their experience and stories perhaps we can jump-start the natural evolutionary process of idea formation to action in order to solve healthcare challenges sooner vs. later.

Guatemalteca Bakery and Restaurant on Beverly near Normandie
I got to go see Olga Koumoundouros' Roundhouse Shines installation along the LA River this week. It's produced by Clockshop like that cool piece, Unfinished. It was awesome to a lot of artists I hadn't seen in a while like Sandra dela Loza, Cindy Herrera, Alan Tolfeson, and I saw Barry Markowitz, Susan Silton and Corey Fogel. I wanted to stop by Document on my way to the opening at Commonwealth and Council but was a little hungry. Right then, I saw a parking space off Beverly just above K Town and something told me to park there. I think it was spotlit by the street light pole. I walked around the corner onto Beverly and this beautiful blue neon sign called me over, Guatemalteca Bakery and Restaurant is located at 4032 W Beverly Blvd LA CA 90004. I walked in and I could feel the stares. I kinda like sticking out like a sore thumb and expressing joy for the meal to everyone's surprise. I just love it and that's what happened again here. I was definitely the only non-Latino in the house! My Spanish is very limited but I saw "Pollo en creme", and that sounded good to me. it turned out to be exactly what I was picturing. BINGO! It was so good, like home.
Un Solo Sol Kitchen in Boyle Heights
I have great co-workers. I think I've said that before. Amalia and Heidi are also part of the bike crew I organize but we hadn't really hung out in a while so it was great to have dinner with them last weekend across the street where our friend Daniel J French was organizing the Beats and Bridges event at Mariachi Plaza. I am a bug fan of Yeya's but Un Solo Sol Kitchen (formerly Homegirls) was also open and not having been there before, we decided to try it. Well, there's our Metro co-worker, Diego Cardoso's painting on the wall, so we knew we couldn't miss. The food was excellent. I had three tacos; chicken, no pales and carne asada. The frescos were delicious and fresh. i had the cantaloupe because that's one of my favorite Herbie Hancock songs. This place was a big hit with the three of us.
Savoy Kitchen in Alhambra
I am a very lucky person. Having great friends who are always eager to introduce me to what they feel are great eats. Case in point, the extremely lovely, Ms. Jen. She has introduced me to some incredible gems and Savoy Kitchen is no exception. It's located at 138 E Valley Blvd, Alhambra CA 91801. The steamed chicken is the staple. It comes on a plate, very plain and unspectacular but then you start to pull pieces and use the various sauces and oh my goodness, this is so delicious. The justices mix with the steamed rice and then BOOM! Heaven. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. Highly recommend it. Thanks Ms. Jen. You are awesome!
Sam's Burgers in Pico Rivera
I found myself again in Pico Rivera, picking up my Roland Juno 60 synthesizer. Alas, Roland no longer makes the parts and I picked it up, defeated and sad. Sam's Burgers has a cool sign. That's what drew me there. It's a fast food place where burgers, tacos, burritos are the norms but seeing the picture of the Red Snapper Plate, I couldn't resist. It was VERY delicious, in a fast food kind of way. I was thinking afterwards, if they could nail that, the burgers must be really good. 8505 Telegraph Road, Pico Rivera CA
La Paella on San Vincente
Art connoisseur and veteran arts administrator Maria Luisa DeHerrera and I had been trying to have dinner for years. We meet at SPARC back in 1990. We finally figured it out and I chose La Paella, which neither of us had been to in years so it seemed appropriate. Of course, we had paella. The seafood was awesome and since maria doesn't care for shell fish, i totally scored. We had a great conversation. She shared stories of the early years of public art, working with Nancy Holt and her newest project, a TED-like conference in Claremont of mammoth proportions. La Paella, 476 S San Vincente BL Beverly Hills CA 90048
Baek Ha Chong in Koreatown
I asked some friends and my daughter to accompany me to a restaurant I have not visited for over 30 years. Well, more specifically, this Korean restaurant was once a Japanese restaurant called Beni Basha. This was my parents restaurant, which they ran for 15 years. It was the restaurant my brother and I grew up in, worked in and eventually said goodbye to. Although it is located only two blocks away from my house, I haven't had the emotional will to enter till recently. The interior is somewhat different now, so it essentially did not feel like the old restaurant. Noel Korten, Sheila Schoonhoven, Kyungmi Shin and my daughter ordered a pork belly dish and Korean BBQ. The bancha was spectacular. My friends Koh and Sojung (Document Coffee Bar) frequent this place often, i found out later, and know the owner, Sue. Kyungmi explained my connection with their restaurant and they allowed me to view the kitchen. i was shocked to see the dish washing sinks and the main stove top/oven (by Wolf) were the same units my Father purchased decades ago. it was like seeing old friends or maybe even ghosts from the past.
Gogo's Bistro in Boyle Heights
GoGo's Bistro, 2415 E Cesar Chavez , LA CA 90033, is a new restaurant in Boyle Heights that's a New Orleans flavored oddity in what is a Latin-dominant vernacular. Unfortunately, I was in a salad mode and I suspect, although the salad was good, a salad is not the prime item on the menu. I need to go back and get some spicy meat dish. Stay tuned.

Oak Park Windmills 10U team advances to USSSA World Series
Talented squad reels off six wins, dominates competition at the Rumble in Rosemont to earn World Series bid
The Oak Park Windmills 10U softball team notched six wins and went undefeated in the Rumble in Rosemont on May 2-4, securing a bit to the USSSA World Series. Over the course of three days, the team scored 61 runs, while giving up only six behind strong pitching from Cassie Metzger, Alex Prouty, and Brinkley Kita.
Metzger pitched three complete game shutouts and surrendered only one hit and one walk in 18 innings of work. She struck out 46 batters, and threw no-hit, no-walk games versus Top Tier in pool play and the Blue Wave in the championship matchup.
Bailey Nicholoff, Maddi Grant and Metzger combined for four home runs and four doubles in the tournament, and the Windmills 10U team collectively batted .405 for the weekend.
This is the Windmills 10U team's third Championship win of the 2013-2014 season, coming after its victories in ASA National Qualifiers in Lemont and Lisle in September and October. The team also placed second in a USSSA Rumble in Rosemont tournament held in early March.
Fielding teams from ages 8 (and under) through age 18 each year, the Oak Park Windmills is a not-for-profit fastpitch travel softball organization that provides opportunities for young girls and high school athletes to train to become collegiate-quality softball players. Thus far, the Windmills organization has successfully helped 103 young athletes continue their careers in college.
Tryouts for the 2014-2015 season will be held in early August.

Manziel to Browns: 'Hurry up and draft me'
The Browns selected the former Texas A&M quarterback after he slipped to No. 22 overall on May 8.
Loggains told ESPN Arkansas 96.3 that an anxious Manziel wrote: "I wish you guys would come get me. Hurry up and draft me because I want to wreck this league together."
Loggains said, "When I got that text, I forwarded it to the owner (Jimmy Haslam) and to the head coach (Mike Pettine). I'm like, 'This guy wants to be here. He wants to be part of it.' As soon as that happened, Mr. Haslam said, 'Pull the trigger. We're trading up to go get this guy.' "
The Browns then traded up from No. 26 to No. 22 with the Philadelphia Eagles to land the former Heisman Trophy winner.
Loggains said the Browns had tried to move up to No. 11 with the Tennessee Titans and No. 16 with the Dallas Cowboys.
"Mr. Haslam and Coach Pettine had called me down to the draft room a couple of times throughout the night, and we had almost made trades with Tennessee and Dallas and backed out," Loggains said. "... We were sitting there, and Coach Pettine keeps texting me, and we're going back and forth and we're going, 'Hey, does Dallas take him here? No they won't. Does St. Louis take him at 13?' We knew we had to get in front of the Chiefs (at No. 23) because we knew they would draft him."
Loggains added that Manziel was the top quarterback on the Browns' draft board.
"It was Manziel and then everybody else," he said.

Back to Cool: Wild Thing
by Fashion 2 Reactions 0 Shares Print
Wild thing...you make my heart sing...you make everything grooooovy. Yes, the girls on Christopher Kane's Fall runway were fierce. And fierce is the way of the wild thing. Every school has one, or a pack, and these girls pretend to come from nothing and be all tough when, in fact, they were born with silver Tiffany spoons in their mouths and are secretly rebelling against their parents. The wild thing's actions may be quixotic, but the ride is guaranteed fashion fun.

2012 Workshop in Henderson, Kentucky - Story list
Great eight
Ashley Blue
Scotlyn Phegley, 2, comes out of the bathroom, pants around her ankles, wet. The big sisters come to the rescue and get some fresh clothes while the other little girls are at school in the dining room with their mom, Rhonda. Does 'giraffe' have a hard G or a soft G? Rhonda helps Brooklyn with grammar with her left hand while breastfeeding Dawson with her right.
"It may be one of those days, guys, everyone needs to keep their attitude in check," Rhonda Phegley of Henderson says after her eight children climb into their 15-passenger van.
Dawson, Scotlyn, Emalyn, Brooklyn, Gabriel, Justis, Malayna and McKenna.
"We're a big family." Rhonda and her husband, Darrin, have eight children between the ages of 8 months and 16 years. Six of them are home schooled.
"We didn't plan to have eight kids. We didn't plan in any direction," Darrin says. "McKenna was the only one we planned. From then on they just came, and we didn't stop it."
Despite working three jobs, Darrin spends more time with the children than do most fathers. Rhonda home schools the children, cooks, cleans and is family activity director in the evening.
Everyone has a job to do. The two oldest, McKenna and her sister, Malayna, 13, pick up a lot of the slack around the house. "Malayna does the hair and I find the shoes," McKenna, 16, says. They get the "little girls," Scotlyn, 2, Emalyn, 5, and Brooklyn, 6, dressed and ready to go every morning. They also help with their youngest brother, Dawson.
The glue that keeps the family together is their faith. The Phegleys have instilled Christian principles into their children.
"It's a God thing. I get up every day knowing that the list of things I have to do cannot get done by me. My whole existence is a prayer request," Rhonda says. "I wish I had been raised like this."
Though she won't ever allow her teenagers to date, Rhonda wants all of her children's relationships to be like the one she has with Darrin — along with lots of grandchildren.
"The best things are that there is more love, more joy, there is just more of all the good things. All of the good things about a family being together and laughing, there is just more of that," Rhonda says.
McKenna Phegley, 16, the oldest of eight siblings, tells her mother what needs to be done before the other children come inside for the night. Being one of the oldest, McKenna holds a lot of responsibilty in the household and helps her mom make sure things run smoothly.
Scotlyn Phegley, 2, grabs her drink from the counter while her sister Malayna, 13, fixes herself a drink.
The Phegley children watch a movie to wind down before bedtime. McKenna Phegley, 16, leans in to keep her sister, Scotlyn, 2, from playing with the baby monitor. "There is always someone that needs you," Rhonda Phegley, their mother, says. "Someone that wants to sit in your lap, tell you about their day or needs a hug."
Brooklyn Phegley, 6, shares a bedroom with her two younger sisters, Emalyn, 5, and Scotlyn, 2. "Little girls are upstairs and so are the boys," says McKenna Phegley, 16, and the oldest child of eight. "They all share a bathroom. Me and Malayna are the only ones downstairs."
The Phegleys sit against the wall at Rudy-Rowland Funeral home during a visitation for a family friend. "People look at us and say, 'Wow, that looks awful.' But we live the opposite of what we appear to them," Rhonda, the children's mother, says.
Malayna Phegley, 13, leans forward to try and understand why her sister, Scotlyn, 2, has her pants around her knees. "Wet," Scotlyn repeats several times, which is all Malayna needs to hear.
Scotlyn Phegely, 2, gets some help from her older brother, Justis, 11, in the upstairs bathroom that the two children share with three more of their siblings.
Maylan Phegley stands behind her sister Scotlyn Phegley while fixing her hair as part of the childrens morning routine. Typically, the older girls get up and get ready first so that they can help the younger girls get out of bed and prepared for the day.
McKenna Phegley, 16, talks to her baby brother, Dawson, while sweeping the kitchen after breakfast. In the other room, McKenna's mother, Rhonda Phegley, helps her other children get started with their home school lessons for the day.
Rhonda and Darrin Phegley hold hands while praying before all 10 members of the family share a meal at Cancun Mexican Restaurant in Henderson. "My children are the overflow of what my wife and I have," Darrin says.
The Phegleys sit at their dining room table and pray before dinner. Faith plays a huge role in the Phegleys' life. "Our desire for Christ is more than anything else. We try to live our lives based on biblical principles and faith," father Darrin Phegley says.
Malayna Phegley, 13, plays with her younger sister, Scotlyn, 2, before bedtime. "Little girls are like chainsaws," Rhonda Phegley, their mother, says. "They give it all they got right before they run out of gas."

Since June 2010, eligible unemployment insurance claimants supporting minor children have been receiving $15 per child, to a maximum of $50, as a dependent allowance added to their weekly unemployment benefit amount. Those dependent allowance payments will end soon as a result of legislation signed by Governor Haslam that becomes effective July 1.
In 2009 Tennessee received one-time federal funds in the amount of $141,808,031 as an incentive grant under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to strengthen the rapidly depleting Trust Fund and continue providing unemployment insurance payments, including the dependent benefit.
"This action taken by the legislature is another step that will increase savings to the Unemployment Insurance Trust Fund. The healthier the Trust Fund, the lower the tax table that determines premium rates for Tennessee employers," said Labor & Workforce Development Commissioner Burns Phillips. "The Trust Fund balance is currently $799 million and is on a positive path to maintain solvency and stability in the event of another recession. Tennessee, unlike 22 states in the nation, has no outstanding loan from the Federal Unemployment Account."
For claimants currently receiving unemployment, the last payable week to receive dependent benefits will be the week that ends June 29. Claimants filing new claims for unemployment benefits on June 30 may be eligible to receive only one week of dependency benefits – for the week that ends July 6; any unemployment payments for weeks ending after that date will not include dependent allowances.
Other provisions included in the legislative repeal affecting claimant eligibility are these:
·After June 29, Tennessee will no longer use the Alternate Base Period to establish unemployment claims for claimants who did not earn enough in wages to establish a claim using the traditional base period.
·Beginning with the week that ends July 6, claimants will be ineligible for benefits for weeks in which they seek, apply for, or accept only part-time work instead of full-time work if their employment has been customarily full-time.
The Department of Labor & Workforce Development will notify affected claimants when they conduct their weekly certification to continue their benefits.

Chicago, IL (Sports Network) - Luis Valbuena hit a go-ahead two-run double in the eighth inning and finished the game with three RBI to help the Chicago Cubs take an 8-2 win over the Chicago White Sox on Monday.
Alfonso Soriano went 3-for-4 with a solo homer and four runs scored, Cody Ransom drove in a pair, and Dave Sappelt was 4-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored for the Cubs, who have won three straight.
Matt Garza (5-1) gave up two runs -- one earned -- on five hits with no walks and six strikeouts over seven innings to win his fourth straight decision.
"I think I'm picking up where I left off last year, doing the things that I did well towards the end there," said Garza. "I look forward to every five days now when I can get out there."
Josh Phegley hit a solo home run, while Gordon Beckham scored a run for the White Sox, who have dropped their past four games. Hector Santiago gave up two runs on five hits over 5 1/3 innings, but didn't factor into the decision.
"You just try to go out there and put up zeros. Just give us a chance to win," Santiago said.
This contest was a makeup game from a May 28 rainout.
The score was tied in the eighth inning when the Cubs went on top in a big way.
Matt Thornton (0-3) was on the mound to start and gave up a one-out walk to Soriano followed by a single from Dioner Navarro. Valbuena then roped a double to center and both runners came home.
Nate Jones took over on the hill and got Darwin Barney to ground out back to the mound, but Sappelt then punched a single to center. Later in the inning with the bases loaded, Ransom slapped a single to center for a 7-2 lead.
Blake Parker set the White Sox down in order in the eighth, while Sappelt added another run in the ninth with an RBI single for a 8-2 advantage.
Parker got the first out of the ninth before James Russell retired the next two batters to end the game.
Valbuena's sacrifice fly in the second was countered by Phegley's one-out homer in the third.
Soriano led off the sixth by crushing a 1-0 pitch deep into the left-field stands for his 13th home run of the year and a 2-1 lead, but in the bottom of the inning, Alex Rios stole second with Beckham on third, and Beckham took home on the throw to second.
Valbuena had taken the place of Welington Castillo as DH prior to the start of
the game. Castillo was a late scratch due to an illness ... Prior to the
contest, Chicago sent outfielder Scott Hairston to the Nats in exchange for
pitcher Ivan Pineyro ... The Cubs won all four games against the White Sox

For all the talk of a new normal, some may be wondering if it is more a matter of no normal. Do the same rules —diversification, buy and hold—and vehicles—mutual funds, single stocks—still apply? Is there a new calculus, physics to the world of investing?
Asset allocation strategists haven't had an easy time in recent years. For awhile they dished out bigger weightings to defensive plays—bonds, cash and commodities. But for 2011, strategists recommend investors boost allocations to ride the wave.

Chicago – Out of respect for the filmmakers and actors, I don't walk out on films. I hold true to that even when I know in the first 10 minutes the film's not for me. Perhaps the second act could surprise me. Maybe the whole film is a flop but it redeems itself with shock and awe in the last 5 minutes.
Rating: 1.0/5.0
But let's be honest: As much as you can tell yourself you'll walk into "Ouija" with an open mind, it's impossible to have high hopes about this latest "horror" film in a tiresome string of formulaic attempts. You're not expecting Oscar-caliber performances and that's why these kinds of films can get away with casting no one you've ever heard of.
This time, Olivia Cooke takes center stage. You might remember her if you saw this year's sci-fi flop "The Signal" with Laurence Fishburne. »

This is what I thought I knew about The Terminator—released 30 years ago this weekend—before I watched it for the first time a few nights ago: - The title character is played by Arnold Schwarzenegger. - He's a robot who's been sent back in time to do... something. - He's a bad guy. Except they keep making movies about him, so maybe he's a good guy. Or he starts as one, then becomes the other? Regardless, he is definitely either good or bad. Yep. That much I know. - Linda Hamilton plays Sarah Connor, a badass with great arms »

There's an odd correlation between cineplex screens and toy-store shelves these days. The movies-being-turned-into-toys-being-turned-into-movies cycle is hardly a 2014 revelation. But, with Michael Bay's most recent Transformers movie scraping the well in search for content, it finally felt like that synergistic cycle was a foregone conclusion. Entertainment and, God forbid, story were afterthoughts to the dollars and cents the film ultimately pulled in. I use Transformers as the example, because Bay's horror-movie production company, Platinum Dunes, has a product in which they'd like you to invest. It's called Ouija, and it's awful. Saying it's "awful" is even putting it to mildly and strikes at the movie itself when it's really just part of a bigger problem. Put bluntly, Ouija is a manifestation of just about everything wrong with the way a lot of movies are made these days. Movies aren't even made nowadays. In 2014 properties are purchased and branded for the consumer, »

After spending the past seven years launching film franchises based on its toys and games like Transformers and G.I. Joe, and setting up other movies like "Monopoly," "Candy Land" and "Risk," Hasbro Studios is poised to take the next logical step: financing its own features.
The toymaker has launched Allspark Pictures — a clever nod to "Transformers" — through which it will fully fund and co-finance a slate of films. The projects that will inaugurate the banner are an animated "My Little Pony" movie, the first planned to play theatrically in 2017, and a live-action adaptation of animated series "Jem and the Holograms," which will sing into theaters on Oct. 23, 2015. Universal will split "Jem's" budget with Hasbro.
"We have a long history in film, and it's become a very important part of our content strategy," says Stephen Davis, president of Burbank-based Hasbro Studios. "We want to use great stories to activate our brands, »

The trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron was reportedly leaked on the internet, in poor quality, resulting in Marvel Studios releasing the official version early. It was originally scheduled to debut with Marvel's Agents of Shield, which would have been obvious brand synergy, as well as casting a spotlight on the awesomeness of that show. (Bad Rising Tide! Pop culture reference, sorry.)
But the official trailer is here now, and it's stunning in its melancholy beauty. This is somewhat atypical for a superhero blockbuster, though increasingly common in recent years (c.f. Iron Man 3, The Dark Knight trilogy).

Greg. P Russell and Scott Millan are masters of an art that can be difficult to appreciate. Great sound mixers take essential tracks — dialogue, score, and effects, all crafted and fighting for ear space — and meld them together to match, or enhance, the visuals on screen. In a film like "Transformers: Age of Extinction," the balancing act is like a Philippe Petit tightrope walk, one rogue robo-braam tipping the controlled chaos soundscape into cacophony. In a new installment of Variety's Artisans series, senior VP Tim Grey talks to Russell and Millan about the fourth "Transformers" and Michael Bay's increasingly difficult audio challenge. "As Michael would testify, sound is 50 percent of his films," says Russell in the video. A 16-time Oscar-nominated sound mixer, Russell has fit each of Bay's "Transformers" films between work like "Skyfall" and "Alice in Wonderland." "Age of Extinction" marked Millan's first brush with Optimus Prime. »

James Franco took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a shot with the 28-year-old stunner, in which she's sporting a long white dress which is covered in blood.

Meanwhile, Franco is seated on the staircase beside his pal, wrapping his arm around the bloodied beauty while sporting a bald head and bushy mustache. "Megan Fox is the best!" the Pineapple Express star captioned the photo. No word yet why Fox is sporting the »

Universal Pictures became the first company to distribute an advertisement on Snapchat, using the social-media app to promote "Ouija" over the weekend.
A 20-second trailer for the upcoming horror film based on Hasbro Studio's boardgame appeared in the "Recent Updates" section of users' accounts on the app, with a sponsored icon. The ad disappears after it's viewed or within 24 hours. It's unclear how much Universal paid for the plug.
As with any update, users choose whether to view the video or photos, but many of those who did took to Twitter to talk about the video — some approving what they saw, while others were irritated by the promo that suddenly appeared on their accounts.
Snapchat, however, has said sponsored ads were coming to its 100 million users.

What's wrong with Transformers: Age of Extinction? So much, apparently, that it took Cinema Sins two videos to pick it all apart. Here's Part 1 of what amounts to about a half hour's worth of assault on the Michael Bay film... Transformers: Age Of Extinction is a movie that you either love or you hate. While message boards and movie sites would say the latter is the more likely scenario, the box office returns speak to the former talking point at a higher volume. That's right folks, it's officially harder to tell whether the world loves or hates the Transformers movies than it is to tell which party has the real majority in American politics.

While a lot of us can't help but remember Shia Labeouf as a goofy teenager on Disney's Even Stevens, it's worth noting that he also had one hell of a heyday as an adult actor (please see: Transformers and Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps). Sure, his career may have taken a few weird turns over the past couple of years but there's no denying that Shia is still one very attractive dude, and he's making his way back to superstardom in the WWII drama Fury with Brad Pitt. We're looking back on Shia's hottest moments - before the plagiarism scandals, paper bag mask, performance art, and Cabaret arrest - in order to welcome him back to the big screen.

Partisanship engulfs U.S. Congress effort to avoid doctor pay cut
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A bipartisan deal in Congress to spare doctors from recurring Medicare pay cuts was in jeopardy on Thursday, as Republicans ignored protests from physicians and moved forward with legislation that would use the so-called "doc fix" to undermine Obamacare.
Hundreds of thousands of doctors who participate in traditional Medicare face a 24 percent pay cut on April 1, as part of a 1990s initiative to restrain federal spending on the government healthcare program, which today serves nearly 50 million elderly and disabled people.
Doctors thought they would see a permanent fix this year after Republicans and Democrats in the House of Representatives and Senate agreed on a policy to replace the payment formula, known as the sustainable growth rate or SGR, according to lobbyists, congressional aides and analysts.
But efforts to seal the deal broke down over how to fund its $138 billion cost over the next decade, and the doc fix appeared to be in danger of political oblivion as Republicans in the House and Senate pursued legislation that would pay for a solution with money from President Barack Obama's signature healthcare reform law.
The sudden partisan character of the doc fix debate brought an unusual public rebuke from the American Medical Association, one of the most powerful lobby groups, representing 225,000 physicians.
"I am writing to profess our profound disappointment that a strong bipartisan, bicameral effort to repeal the Medicare sustainable growth rate has become a victim of partisan approaches," Dr. James Madara, AMA's chief executive, said in a Thursday letter to House Speaker John Boehner and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi.
"We renew our call for all parties to engage in good faith, bipartisan efforts to address the budgetary implications of this bill and enact it. We stand ready to work with you in this endeavor."
Other physician groups also expressed their displeasure over the partisan turn.
"It's a sad state of affairs," said Dr. Thomas Barber, a lobbyist for the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, which represents 16,000 physicians.
"To see something that was supported by both parties get shanghaied into the partisan politics of the day is very frustrating," he said.
Congressional aides described the Republican legislation as a signal that a months-long push for a permanent, bipartisan doc fix is unlikely as the political calendar moves toward the November election. Instead, they said doctors would probably see a temporary patch of nine months or more that would avoid the April 1 pay cut and postpone a permanent solution into the next Congress, which takes office in January 2015.
Lobbyists said that could mean starting the process over, especially if a Republican Senate victory in November creates a new political dynamic between Congress and the Obama White House.
Analysts said it also eliminates an opportunity to move traditional Medicare away from its costly fee-for-service structure. Republicans and Democrats agreed to replace the SGR with policies that call for Medicare doctors to accept new performance standards or participate in alternative care models designed to improve service while lowering costs in exchange for avoiding pay cuts.
House Republicans are poised for a Friday vote on a bill that would find the money by delaying the individual mandate penalty in President Barack Obama's healthcare law for five years, an action opposed by the White House and its Democratic allies in Congress.
The bill advanced on Thursday on a procedural vote, largely along party lines.
Meanwhile, Republican Senators Orrin Hatch and John Cornyn were joined by Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell on a bill that would repeal the individual mandate altogether to generate money for a permanent doc fix.
Lobbyists said the bipartisan momentum ended in the early weeks of 2014, after oversight committee chairmen from both congressional chambers struck a deal on policy language that they incorporated into legislation.
Behind-the-scenes efforts to reach a deal on money quickly ran aground, with Republicans demanding that the money come from entitlement reforms to Medicare and the Medicaid healthcare program for the poor, and Democrats pushing for hypothetical savings from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The AMA, which has led more than 600 other physician groups in a lobbying effort to secure a permanent doc fix, says it is still hoping for a permanent solution this year. Analysts say some doctor groups are pressing lawmakers to agree to a shorter patch of only a months to sustain the opportunity for dialogue.
The AMA says there have been 16 temporary SGR patches so far, costing taxpayers $154 billion. Securing an agreement on the doc fix is one of the association's highest priorities.

FAIRFIELD, Conn. -- The Fairfield Daily Voice accepts signed letters to the editor. Send letters to email@example.com.
To The Editor:
The Fairfield Republican RTM Caucus would like to thank the Board of Education, First Selectman, Board of Selectmen, Board of Finance, all Department Heads and especially Fiscal Officer Bob Mayer and Town Budget Director Linda Gardiner for their tireless work over the past several months.
On the night of May 5th year 2014-15 budget, Republican-sponsored initiatives adopted that evening slowed the growth in government spending and saved the taxpayer $1.1 million. The 2014-15 budget as approved by the RTM carries an effective tax rate increase of 1.96 percent, which was formally ratified by the Board of Finance on May 8, 2014, when it set the new mill rate.
Your Republican-led RTM has taken notable steps to temper the tax increases over recent years, and this is the first time in five years that the tax rate increase will be below 2 percent. This is not to say that more work does not need to be done, particularly as it relates to reining in the costs associated with our long-term liabilities, i.e., healthcare and pensions.
Below are the top-level budget details achieved for the coming fiscal year:
- The Fairfield Police Department carried one of the largest approved percentage increases at 5.9 percent as we approved the implementation of the school safety initiative that the Fairfield Police Department will be rolling out in the coming year.
- Funds for the Board of Education were approved with an increase of 3.0 percent, or $4.5 million, in the next budget year. First Selectman Mike Tetreau reduced the original Board of Education budget request by $800,000 and the RTM further reduced the BOE's request by an additional $500,000. Superintendent of Schools David Title presented a plan to the BOE to incorporate these reductions into the BOE's budget and these reductions were characterized by Dr. Title as having "minimal impact" on the classrooms. We want to thank Dr. Title for his efforts in this regard, and appreciate his continued pursuit of operational efficiencies and academic excellence.
- Public Works saw a minimal increase of 1.9 percent, or $286,000. The Republican-led RTM continued to fund road paving at a dollar volume equal to last year's spend as we were forced to redirect taxpayer funds (again) to shore up the town's surplus (rainy day fund) and tracking, budgeting and accounting for the ever volatile healthcare costs of our employees, the Republican Caucus overwhelmingly approved the town's fiscal. Unfortunately our contractually guaranteed benefits to retirees spiked again at an alarming 10.9 percent. The Republican RTM majority continues to support the First Selectman in our joint belief that the RTM needs to be presented with labor agreements that will minimize our long-term liabilities. Labor agreements presented to the RTM that continue to generate 10 percent incremental costs for retiree benefits are simply unsustainable over the long term. More work needs to be done in this area.
- Every other sector of the 2014-15 RTM approved budget carried a virtual zero percentage increase.
The Republican Caucus would also like to recognize our colleagues across the aisle on the RTM—despite their general lack of support this budget cycle to reduce spending levels—and ask they join us in future budget deliberations to achieve a more affordable Fairfield.
As we successfully demonstrated this budget cycle—and with the previous four—fiscal restraint can be exercised without adversely affecting taxpayer services. Moreover, insinuation that the fiscal discipline instilled by the RTM will be ruinous to our town's character, reputation and overall attractiveness is simply divisive and without merit.
In fact, the Republican Caucus of the RTM is proud to have presented and adopted over $5,000,000 in budget reductions over the past five years. The compounded effect of these reductions will be incrementally beneficial to taxpayer for years to come. In the meantime, our school district continues to win awards, our public safety continues to be recognized as one of the region's best and our Public Works Department has successfully dealt with two hurricanes, three blizzards and a multitude of other infrastructure improvements.
We thank you for your continued support and we will continue to work tirelessly to keep Fairfield affordable for all so that we can make the necessary investments in our schools, public safety, public works infrastructure and other expected resources and services for the benefit of our community.
