TV Use in Elmhurst, PA
If you thirst for cable TV knowledge, we can help. CableTV.com has cold-filtered cable data on tap and ready for consumption. Try this (it's on the house): almost everyone, or 97% of Americans, watches television as it is aired and roughly 33% of those TV viewers have at least four televisions in their homes. Upwards of 50% of people also stream video content online. Among those with cable TV, almost three-fourths bundle their service with high-speed Internet. Cable's ubiquitous national presence also helps explain how DVRs account for about 7% of America's total TV viewing.
All those stats mean that if you don't own at least one TV for every room in your house, chances are your neighbor to the left or right of you does. It also means that almost everyone you meet today will watch a TV tonight, and 57% of them will use either their DVR or their Internet to do so.
About Elmhurst Cable Internet
Cable providers have so much more to offer than TV. That is why so many Elmhurst residents bundle cable services. Cable Internet is faster than most DSL services, providing downstream speeds 25%-100% faster than the national average. People who choose cable bundles also save money, roughly $42 every month they bundle TV and Internet. Both are very good explanations why cable Internet subscribers represent 32% of households, and how broadband penetration in Pennsylvania grew to 67% by 2010.

Which Actors Are From Elmhurst, PA

More charges for men accused in theft ring
Authorities have added more charges for two Rowan County men, one of whom is on the Rowan Sheriff's Office Most Wanted list, who are involved in a number of catalytic converter thefts from area businesses that occurred throughout February.
The Rowan County Sheriff's Office was searching for and has since found Trenton Ray Weast Jr., 21, of Granite Quarry, whose address has also been listed as Ellen Street in Salisbury. He is facing one count of misdemeanor resist, delay, obstruct a public officer; seven counts felony breaking and entering, five counts felony larceny, chop shop activity by theft/fraud, one count misdemeanor larceny, one count misdemeanor injury to personal property, misdemeanor failure to appear. He was placed on the county's most wanted list more than a week ago.
Michael Lee Upright, 40, who is already in the Rowan County jail, was charged with five counts of felony larceny and one count misdemeanor first-degree trespass.
Both men are described by authorities as being part of a theft ring; multiple people have been charged with breaking into homes, businesses and vehicles throughout the county in December and January. Upright is charged for his alleged involvement in a number battery thefts throughout the county in February.
Investigators say Weast cut and disassembled the catalytic converter from the exhaust system from the East branch of the YMCA in Rockwell, Grace Bible Church in Rockwell, Lyerly Evangelical Church and Nazareth Community Church. Arrest warrants also say Weast was involved in a January break-in at a Mocksville home, a Goodson Road break-in from January where authorities say he took a shotgun, handgun and ammunition from the Salisbury home. A Sherrills Ford Road home was broken into in mid-January and officials say Weast was involved; a number of weapons including rifles, shotguns, ammunition and power tools were taken. A Honeycutt Road man reported the theft of a game console and a 22-inch television from his Salisbury home on Jan. 24. Authorities say Weast was involved in the Honeycutt Road break-in, an arrest warrant said. More homes on Barringer Road, Thompson Road, Hutchins Way, all in Salisbury, were robbed of weapons, power tools, copper wiring and air conditioning units.
Diamond Auto Sales on Mooresville Road was broken into and power tools and three dealer tags were taken, a warrant said, Weast was charged in that incident.
Weast remains in the Rowan County Detention Center under a $110,000 secured bond.
Arrest warrants say Upright took 56 batteries from Foxwood Golf Course on Potneck Road and 60 batteries, lawn equipment and a generator on another occasion from the golf course. Investigators say Upright was involved in the theft of 24 batteries and copper wire from vehicles at Myers Forest Products, 35 batteries and 30 batteries on another occasion from Spinnaker General Contractors in Mount Ulla.
Upright remains in the Rowan County jail under a $50,000 secured bond, which was added to his previous bond, bringing his total bond to $145,000.

The Gordon and Anthea Wells Memorial Scholarships were presented last week during the All-District Musical Festival in the West High gymnasium.
The scholarships, established by two retired Tracy teachers and supported by Tracy Friends of the Stockton Symphony, provide funds for the students either to pay for individual classes or to purchase instruments.
This year's Wells scholarship winners are:
• Ashley Flores, a flutist with the North School band. An eighth-grader, she began playing flute in the fifth grade and "had demonstrated dedication and discipline," according to her teacher Mark Williams. Ashley was selected for the Tracy Honor Band, he reported.
• Saul Virgen, a seventh-grader at Freiler School, where he plays drums in the school band.
"He is a leader and often works with other band members to improve their skills," said Lori Yates, music instructor at Freiler.
• Cameron Estrada, an eighth-grader at Kelly School. He is in his fifth year in the music program and his fourth year playing alto saxophone. He has played in the district honor band the past two years.
"Cameron is a hard worker and is always ready to help the novice saxophone students in his section," said Celia Rosemblum-Stime, music instructor at Kelly.
• Dylan Gathings of Monte Vista Middle School, who — although he started to play trumpet only this year after moving from Stockton — has learned quickly. He plays in the after-school jazz band and was selected to the San Joaquin County Honor Band.
"Dylan is a great example of hard work and perserverance paying off, and he has made all of Monte Vista proud this year," said his teacher, Randy McMillan.
• Colby Leiske, a Monte Vista eighth-grader, who plays tenor saxophone in the school band. He has been in the band for three years and "has grown into a mature and talented performer," reported his teacher, Dave Villa.
"Colby is always upbeat and pleasant in class and has become a student leader and prime example for his class," Villa said.

Destruction of schools in Haiti quake crushes hopes of a better future for many
By William Booth and Scott Wilson
Washington Post Staff Writers | Saturday, January 23, 2010; A01
PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI -- Of the many things taken from this city by the earthquake, few are as threatening to Haiti's future as the near destruction of a school system viewed across society here as the only path to a better life.

A number of you have been asking about the nature of our response. While it is still early, taking lessons from the work in Bam, after the Tsunami and on the Gulf Coast, here is our current plan.
1) Fundraise We're going to start by fundraising. We do need donations to get rolling.
2) Create a central base Send a team down to identify a site/partner(s) to house a recovery center likely in Port-au-Prince.
3) Provide technical assistance Use a small full-time team to direct volunteer efforts in damage assessments, safety training and basic building training. (first 6 months- 1 year)
4) Design Services Provide sustained, long-term design services from the recovery center to local groups, NGO's and local officials to assist and support the rebuilding process (6 months- 3 years)

On Jan. 12th a powerful 7.0 quake hit the impoverished nation of Haiti. This was followed more than 30+ strong aftershocks. There has been widespread major damage and a loss of life estimated to be between 45,000 to 50,000 (source: Red Cross). There are projections of 2-3M without shelter. Since then we have launched an appeal to focus on the long term reconstruction effort. In the first four days we've raised over $45,000 in individual giving and have pledges from a number of companies.
If you care about building Haiti back better, donate today.

Business Model Optimization
The alignment of a multinational company's operating model and its global tax profile enhances the opportunity for value creation. But that's no easy task. Each must adapt to satisfy the demands of the other. Business Model Optimization (BMO) is the process of pursuing this balance and integrating the operating model and global tax strategy into the way a business operates. The two do not operate independently of each other. One must carefully balance business needs with tax requirements.
In this evolving economic environment, it is always a good time to review your global business model, "How can you create value by pursuing new market share, transforming your value chain, and gaining greater economies of scale?" Some of the ways to create value in an organization include:
- Undertaking operational initiatives to pursue revenue and margin growth
- Evaluating rationalization of the supply chain
- Integrating acquisitions with existing structures
- Centralizing management and key supply chain functions, assets and/or intellectual property, regionally or globally
As you evaluate these and other types of business transformations, are you considering all of the relevant factors that may help build value within your organization?
When making decisions related to tax opportunities, the business strategy makes up the framework within which tax opportunities exist. Tax structures that do not reflect business operations can diminish the bottom line, while a business model that does not consider tax may hamper its cash flow through reduced after-tax profits. The impact of aligning these two is a more efficient business model with sustainable and scalable tax results.
As organizations look to pursue new markets, gain greater economies of scale, and contain costs, BMO helps to explore important factors, including a range of value creation opportunities and the associated tax consequences. BMO helps multinational companies integrate their operational and tax planning in a scalable and sustainable manner to help business leaders make more effective decisions on an after-tax basis. BMO is all about creating value through business transformation.
There are more than 500 dedicated BMO specialists within our global network of member firm professionals who are experienced with the complexities of implementing new business models and aligning the tax and operating strategy for multinational companies. Our integrated multidisciplinary team includes specialists in business transformation, information technology, human resources, international tax and transfer pricing, global customs and trade and Value Added Taxes, and project and change management. Deloitte's dedicated cross-competency, global team networks have extensive "been there, done that" experience in aligning tax, treasury, intellectual property and business models. Our teams provide high quality, customized tax and business model transformation services in an efficient manner through the use of our BMO methodology.
Using our established methodologies and tools, our BMO teams focus on the following elements or work streams:
- Realigning for business transformation
- Reconfiguring IT systems
- Readying Human Resources
- Reorganizing legal, finance, and tax structures

Mother outlaws: theories and practices of empowered mothering
Women's Press, 2004 - Family & Relationships - 441 pages
Adrienne Rich opened of Woman Born: Motherhood as Experience and Institution with the observation "we know more about the air we breath, the seas we travel, than about the nature and meaning of motherhood." In the twentyfive plus years since the publication of Rich's landmark book the topic of motherhood has emerged as a central issue in feminist scholarship. Central to Rich's analysis and developed by subsequent motherhood scholars is the key distinction Rich made in her book. Between two meanings of motherhood, one superimposed on the other: the potential relationship of any woman to her powers of reproduction and to children; and the institution--which aims at ensuring that that potential--and all women shall remain under male control. The term motherhood refers to the patriarchal institution of motherhood, which is male-defined and controlled and is deeply oppressive to women, while the word mothering refers to women's experiences of mothering which are female-defined and centred and potentially empowering to women. The reality of oppressive motherhood thus must be distinguished from the possibility or potentiality of empowered mothering. In other words, while motherhood, as an institution, is a male-defined site of oppression, women's own experiences of mothering can nonetheless be a source of power. The theory and practice of empowered mothering recognizes that both mothers and children benefit when the mother lives her life, and practices mothering, from a position of agency, authority, and autonomy. Secondly, this new perspective, in this collection examines how mothers seek to imagine and implement a theory and practice of mothering that is empowering to women as opposed tooppressive under five sections: Feminist Mothering Lesbian Mothering, African American Mothering, Mothers and Daughters, Mothers and Sons.

Great photos of the lenticular clouds over the summit.These are the ones that people constantly used to mistake for UFOS!!!
I drove on route 302 from Maine into N Conway and saw 3 of these clouds stacked one above the other just to the east of Mt Washington. All 3 were close to the same size. Looked like a stack of pancakes. Then off to the east of Wildcat there were 3 more stacked the same way. I tried to find a clear spot to stop and and take pictures, but was not successful. I did get this shot from River Road in N Conway both as a single photo and also 8 individual photos (15.2 megapixels each) stitched together.

A recent New York Times article reports that scientists are worried about highly caffeinated beverages like Red Bull, Rockstar, Monster and Full Throttle, which are popular among teenagers and young adults. According to the article, the often bizarre combination of ingredients in these drinks prompted three researchers from theHealth Science Center at Houston and the University of Queensland in Australia to examine what is known — and not known — about the contents of these beverages, which are sold alongside sodas and sport drinks in supermarkets, drugstores and highway rest stops.

Main Content
Unlike the glamorous mermaid, not all hybrid water creatures have an easy life. Take Frazer the Narwhal for example. He had skinny arms and legs and he wasn't much to look at. Growing up on the wrong side of the Arctic, he didn't have a singing crab to tell him right from wrong. He had to figure it out on his own – and he did. When he finally saved up enough clams for a better life, he packed up his bags and moved to Los Angeles and became an award-winning actor. It's true! Pass on the folklore of Frazer's rags-to-riches story with this tee from Jedidiah featuring a picture of Frazer passing the Los Angeles border. Proceeds for the sale of this garment will be donated to StandUp For Kids, a national non-profit committed to improving the lives of homeless teenagers and at risk youth.

okay seriously if you're in a relationship or even a friendship and you find yourself spending more time crying out of sadness or arguing with them, leave them. i don't care if they're a modern day aphrodite/adonis or a gift bestowed upon you by the gods. toxic people are dangerous and i highly advise cutting them out of your life and finding someone who makes you laugh until you snort your drink out your nose instead.

Mauli Ola Celebrated Memorial Day by Spr...
Mauli Ola Celebrated Memorial Day by Spreading Awareness for Cystic Fibrosis
Memorial Day weekend was filled with Mauli Ola spirit with three surf events that Included the May 27th Surf Experience Day at Queens Beach in Waikiki, Hawaii followed by a May 28th MOF Surf Experience Day at Huntington Beach, California, and the spectacular three-day Bud Light Lime Surf Series competition which took place from May 27th through May 29th.
On Friday, May 27, 2011 Mauli Ola Foundation's Vice President and pro-surfing star Kala Alexander hosted MOF Waikiki Beach, along with Buttons Kaluhiokalani and the legendary Buttons Surf School. Hawaiian Pro-surfer Reno Abellira (designer of the twin fin surfboard) was also in attendance to support Mauli Ola Foundation. Surfer and videographer Atilla Jobbagyi donated his time and GoPro HD video camera to shoot some great action footage of the surf instruction.
"Atilla actually rides out into the water alongside the surf instructors and the kids, and he shoots this amazing footage up close and personal, while the surfing instruction is actually going on," explains Mauli Ola Surf Experience Director Bobby Serna.
Two celebrated artists, Patrick Parker and Clark Takashima, donated their time and their talents, creating true-to-life oil canvas paintings inspired by the day's surfing events. Both Mauli Ola- inspired paintings that were created at the MOF Waikiki event were donated to Mauli Ola Foundation to be auctioned off with all proceeds going to Mauli Ola's work in spreading awareness for Cystic Fibrosis and other genetic diseases.
The following day, on May 28th, the Mauli Ola crew moved on to Huntington Beach, California where the BBS – Black Belt Surfing crew's top fighters, including Brian Ortega, came down to show their support for Mauli Ola Foundation. The famous Hawaiian surf club, Da Hui, made an appearance at Huntington Beach to show their support with their ongoing MOF T-shirt sponsorship. "Da Hui has been supporting us with their T-shirts for a long time, and anyone immersed in surfing culture knows about these North Shore legends," states Serna.
According to Da Hui, the company was founded "by a core group of North Shore waveriders to protect the rights of Hawaiian and local non-Hawaiian surfers. Over the years, the club's atmosphere has become more family (or "Ohana") oriented with positive community related goals."
In addition to back-to-back Surf Experience Days, the Bud Light Lime Surf Series granted Mauli Ola Foundation a free 10x10 tent as one of the surf series' selected charities.
"We had that tent up for the full three day surf series. The Bud Light Lime Surf Series allowed us to pack so much awareness into one weekend!" exclaimed Serna.
Part of the Mauli Ola promotional blitz that took place at the Bud Light Lime Surf Series was the Flexfit MOF signature hats that were personally designed by some of professional surfing's brightest stars. "The hats were a big hit," asserts Serna, continuing, "Some of the surfers who donated their signature hats were asking where their own MOF signature hats were. That created a lot of hype, and before we knew it everyone was buzzing about the signature hats!"
Longtime Mauli Ola supporters: Gavin Beschen, Makua Rothman and Sunny Garcia were all down at the Bud Light Lime Surf Series competing in this exclusive, invitation only competition.
"They were all talking about their Flexfit MOF signature hats," says Serna. "Our presence at the Bud Light Lime Surf Series helped us to promote Mauli Ola and CF awareness in a big way, and the hats had a great deal to do with that," explained Serna.
In addition, says Serna "the surfers' names are breaking down the doors for us and really getting our name out there!"
