A local real estate firm is converting an assemblage of buildings at 5th and Bainbridge in the Queen Village neighborhood of Philadelphia into a 30-room boutique hotel.
Zaken Realty Trust of Philadelphia bought the properties that were associated with 13 different addresses and comprise an entire block at 5th, Bainbridge and Kater streets. The buildings had been owned by the Paul family, which operated John C. Paul Co.
While a couple of the buildings will be turned into apartments, the bulk of the properties will be converted into a boutique hotel, said Steve Jeffries of Precision Realty Group.
"While Center City has hotels, the neighborhoods don't and if you have a friend or parents come into town, sleeping on the couch isn't something you want them to do," Jeffries said. "They need a little hotel."
The building will have a total of 7,000 square feet of street-level retail space and Jeffries is seeking to fill it with a restaurant similar to the Bainbridge Street Barrel House and some smaller storefronts.
The project is expected to be completed by the end of the summer.

The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) have arrived! At this very moment, educators in 48 states plus the District of Columbia are adjusting their activities to the new standards. But how do those new standards prepare students to cope with or to generate the innovations of the 21st century?
The CCSS attention to English Language Arts and Mathematics suggests that, to be career and college ready, today's students must demonstrate a strong grasp of those subjects. The CCSS will be periodically reviewed and updated to fit future needs, and so it is important that we keep track of developments. Furthermore, alongside whatever CCSS iteration, we need to prepare students to be creative, flexible, and adaptable to the unforeseen contexts of a fast moving 21st Century.
Recently, the Partnership for 21st Century Skills (P21) published the P21 Common Core Toolkit in an effort to align the CCSS to the increasing necessity for helping our students develop complex thinking skills. P21 calls on educators to incorporate skills such as creativity, flexibility, adaptability, global, and cultural awareness in curricula and assessments. Since the CCSS do not prescribe ways to teach, the toolkit also proposes that educators engage students in inquiry and exploration of real world problems and interdisciplinary performance tasks.
Arts integration is a teaching approach that addresses the concerns raised in the P21 Common Core Toolkit. The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts' Changing Education through the Arts (CETA) Program define arts integration as "…an approach to teaching in which students construct and demonstrate understanding through an art form. Students engage in a creative process that connects an art form and another subject area and meets evolving objectives in both."
In the arts integrated classroom, students make use of background knowledge, investigation, and experimentation to perform tasks that involve both standards in the arts form and in another core subject. Creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, communication, flexibility and adaptability, some of the skills described as central to success in the 21st century, are integral to the arts initegration pedagogy.

U.S. adopts California vehicle emission standards
Send this to a friend
- Mark Anderson
- Staff Writer- Sacramento Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn | Google+
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on Friday released a proposed national standard for cars and for gasoline that slashes allowable emissions for a range of harmful pollutants — and brings them to California standards.
The federal agency said the goal is to "significantly reduce harmful pollution, prevent thousands of premature deaths and illnesses, while also enabling efficiency improvements in the cars and trucks we drive."
The proposed nationwide standard reduces sulfur levels in gasoline down to 10 parts per million — a 60 percent reduction for much of the nation — by 2017.
That change in federal standards will bring them into line with the goals set by California years ago, said Stanley Young, communications director with the California Air Resources Board.
"We've been far ahead of the federal government for more than a decade," Young said. California fuel requirements are currently under 9 parts per million of sulfur.
In a news release, the U.S. EPA said the standards would work with California's program for clean fuels and cars to allow car companies to sell the same cars and trucks in all 50 states.
"For decades, California has carefully crafted emissions standards to protect the health of people and other living things. Now the federal government is joining with us to apply the same standards to the rest of the nation. The result will be improved health for millions of people," said California Gov. Jerry Brown, in a statement.
Cars built before the new standards will run cleaner on the low-sulfur gas, the federal EPA's release said.
Mark Anderson covers technology, agriculture, banking and finance, venture capital, energy, mining and hospitality for the Sacramento Business Journal.

Again, yesterday I read tweets saying it isn't fair to compare baseball's current World Series ratings to its heyday in the 70s and 80s. Hard to imagine, but the '78 and '80 Series both averaged a 32.8 rating.
This year, the seven-game KC-San Francisco Series did an 8.2 rating with a 14 share. Big difference, right?
Of course, the entire prime time landscape has changed considerably. Back then, shows like "All in the Family" pulled 30 ratings on a weekly basis. Now, the numbers for all programs are much lower in the era of 500 channels.
But as I continue to point out, the decline in the World Series ratings is a recent trend. Just look at the numbers from Baseball Almanac.
This year's World Series was down nearly 50 percent compared to the '99 World Series, which averaged a … Continue Reading

Insider knowledge: Bunnahabhain 17 Year Old Westering Home - Feis Ile 2014 whisky is named whisky by virtue of the fact it's from Scotland. If distilled in America the spelling would be Bunnahabhain 17 Year Old Westering Home - Feis Ile 2014 whiskey, as opposed to whisky.
Nose: Luxurious, sweet and creamy. Nuttiness soon emerges - whole almonds, nougat and sweet malt. Light caramel and a little Haribo develop. Gregg Wallace would like this.
Palate: Sweet and nutty with complex spices including plenty of nutmeg.
Finish: A little smoke and some fruitiness in the form of kiwi and starfruit.
Overall: Nutty dessert whisky. This premium festival bottling is rich enough to stand up to the sweetness too.

'Hacker School' Is Creating a New Generation of Female Programmers
Only two in 10 computer programmers are women but if the response to Etsy's partnership with New York City-based Hacker School is any indication, male domination of the industry could soon be on its last legs. In April the DIY-oriented site announced that it was teaming up with the school to offer $5,000 scholarships to 20 women to attend a three-month-long summer program and learn coding through projects. Exceeding all expectations, 661 women applied to the program and 23—three more than the original goal—were admitted.
Marc Hedlund, vice president of engineering for Etsy writes on the company's blog that the number of applicants received for the summer session was 100 times the number received in their first attempt to have an all-female session at Hacker School. What made the difference? Hedlund says that this time around they offered financial aid grants to applicants. That likely played a significant role in the increase since 18 of the 23 admitted students requested grants.
Hacker School is actually free but the grants cover the cost of living in New York City for the summer—an expense that's tough to shoulder even in the most robust economic times. In order to ensure that the financial need of every accepted student was met, Hedlund asked friends in the tech industry to help out. He received swift replies from two software companies, Yammer and 37Signals, whose generosity also enabled the initiative to increase the grant amount to $7,000 per student.
It's impressive that instead of giving up and believing that women weren't applying to the school because they're not interested in learning to code, Etsy and its partners actually took the time to figure out the root cause of the lack of applicants and stepped up financially. And, according to Hedlund, the financial commitment is well worth seeing the 23 female students in action.
"Walking into the Hacker School rooms and seeing a gender-balanced group of students, hacking on open source and learning to be better developers," says Hedlund, "is nothing short of incredible to me, given how unbalanced our industry has been as long as I've been managing." If partnerships like this one can expand, it won't be long before the goal of more women in the industry becomes a reality.

[1] Doda\s enhancements were direct silicone injections rather than filled prothesis, a proceedure not practiced today due to concerns about silicone migration within the body. Doda has not reported experiencing significant side effects due to the injections.

In a recent interview with XXL, Black Thought spoke on the fate of his long-awaited solo album and collborative LP with Danger Mouse.
Any word on your long-awaited solo album?
I've been working on the solo record at different points of my career. And for whatever reason Def Jam wasn't on board for what we were trying to do with that project. So it's kind of been put on hold, and instead of being a full length Black Thought solo, it's gonna be more of an EP. It's gonna be short probably. Instead of 10, 12, 14 songs, it'll probably be closer to six. I don't have a working title yet, and I don't know who's gonna be on it yet but you can expect the bar to be at the same place that it's always been.
So it's not called Masterpiece Theater anymore?
Years ago I was working on Masterpiece Theater but then at the same time En Vogue had come out with an album of the same title. I don't know how many people remember En Vogue's Masterpiece Theater but my Masterpiece Theater project was actually supposed to be a specific collection of songs—many of which ended up being used. A lot of my Masterpiece Theater songs ended up on Phrenology. That's the album that we were working on when I was also doing my solo stuff.
Which of those tracks were originally for Masterpiece Theater?
Songs like "Water," "Pussy Galore," "Rock You." The list goes on… there was just a lot of stuff that I recorded for that project and then in the end, in the ninth inning, I took it and made them into contributions for the Phrenology album. So I don't know if I'll ever have another Masterpiece Theater because the title was for a very specific group of songs that have already been used.
But you're also working on another project with Danger Mouse, right?
Yup. It's going really well. It's a pet project we're been doing together in our spare time, which there's never really much for, you know? He's constantly working, recording, and touring and so am I but when there is time for a meeting of the minds, we've been putting together this album. We have at least eight bangers… We've played the music for a few people and they really like it. But it doesn't feel like it's close to completion. It's still very much a work in progress, but for that, we have the working title of Dangerous Thoughts.
Hey, how about you drop that "Dangerous Thoughts" album with Danger Mouse? That's right, I said it…I am not letting this one go by mo fo's …So everything is so adorable? Fuck that…Make it happen, we appreciate your skills Thought! But whats up??? In the words of Eric Cartmen, " I just shitted on your desk…What's up???" hmmm…speaking of which in another different context…What is Method Man doing right now???

Soul Loss, Retrieval, Integration
Soul Loss
World shamanism supports the idea that the soul has multiple parts like an orange with sections. These segments or soul parts can be ejected, stolen or lost. Soul loss can be brought about by a variety of traumatic life experiences: illness, accident, surgery, abusive relationships (parental, sibling or partner), and grief. We may notice the loss as depression, apathy, loss of vitality, a sense of emptiness, lack of purpose, PTSD and perhaps the physical symptoms of disease.
Soul Retrieval
It is the job of the shaman to restore the person to wholeness. In a shamanic journey the shaman travels into the spirit world and returns with the lost soul parts. Soul retrieval restores our vital life energy. This allows us to feel enriched and rejuvenated. Some people actually notice that colors appear brighter and they feel more vibrant. Awareness and honesty often accompany the returned parts so that healing and transformation happen.
Soul Integration
The strongest validation comes when others begin to notice our renewed energy level, spark and zest for life. Often returning soul parts bring innocence and joyfulness as well as the ability to confront difficult life situations.
To purchase your Soul Retrieval click below:
I highly recommend you purchase the 3 after-care sessions.

Caltrain delays continue after train hits truck

Please please please, do not ever stop your vehicle on the train tracks. Do not cross the tracks unless you can see there is enough room for your entire vehicle on the other side of the tracks. If the traffic light turns red while you are on the tracks for some reason, it is safer to run the red light than to remain stopped on the train tracks. Collisions like this should never happen if drivers are competent.
Aren't truck drivers supposed to have extra training and extra testing? I hope this driver gets his license pulled after this stunt.
Glad he didn't derail the train and kill the passengers.

Lights! Camera! Action! Greenacres Community Hall to reopen Friday night
- 7:30 am Wednesday, October 22nd, 2014 by Kevin D. Thompson
GREENACRES — The city's Community Hall is finally ready for its close-up after a seven-month renovation project.
The city has scheduled a grand reopening for Friday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. There will be a dance performance and a building tour.
The city budgeted more than $500,000 to give the 5,820-square-foot building at 501 Martin Ave., a much-needed face-lift. The project wound up costing the city about $488,000, City Manager Wadie Atallah said.
The project, which started in February, included renovating restrooms and the kitchen, building offices for staffers who were sitting at desks in an open space and creating a more secure [More]
Greenacres councilman calls out mayor, says he runs the city his own way
- 11:30 am Tuesday, October 21st, 2014 by Kevin D. Thompson
GREENACRES — It's no secret that Councilman Jonathan Pearce wants to be mayor.
But, right now, Samuel Ferreri holds that position.
Pearce, however, continues to publicly spar with Ferreri, treating some council meetings as debate forums.
On Monday, for instance, Pearce said Ferreri, who has been mayor since 1988, is used to having his own way and has been for some time.
"But someone is watching out for the taxpayers and looking out for them for once," Pearce said. "Before everything was rubber stamped."
Ferreri bristled at those comments, saying he would never "subvert" anybody's opinion.
The brouhaha erupted after Ferreri angrily chastised Pearce for saying [More]
Greenacres City Manager earns mostly rave reviews on performance evaluation
- 7:15 am Tuesday, October 21st, 2014 by Kevin D. Thompson
GREENACRES — City Manager Wadie Atallah received an "exceeds standards" job performance review from Mayor Samuel Ferreri and the five-member city council at Monday's City Council meeting.
The evaluation form contained eight performance categories (including communication with council, staff relations and implementation of council policy) to be rated as "exceeds standards," "meets standards" and "fails to meet standards."
The overall evaluation was to be rated as "satisfactory" or "unsatisfactory."
"The consensus is he's doing a great job," Ferreri said.
In a summary of comments memo to Atallah and the council, the city highlighted Atallah's ability to prepare a budget within 3 percent of projections, [More]

2 things you need to know about tonight's Greenacres council meeting
- 7:00 am Monday, October 20th, 2014 by Kevin D. Thompson
GREENACRES — After a six week hiatus, the City Council is scheduled to meet tonight at 7 p.m., City Hall Council Chambers, 5800 Melaleuca Lane. Here are the two main items to watch.
1. Cell phone tower proposal: Last month, the council was scheduled to vote on a proposal by RG Towers to build a 150-foot commercial cellphone tower within the city's Municipal Complex. That vote, however, was tabled after several Sunland Estates residents grumbled about the proposal, saying the monopole tower would be unsightly and reduce property values. The city opted to hire an independent engineer to determine if another tower [More]
Royal Palm resident complains Commons Park not handicap friendly
- 8:00 am Sunday, October 19th, 2014 by Kevin D. Thompson
ROYAL PALM BEACH — Last year, when Leslie Horowitz-Willis attended Fall Fest at Commons Park, she didn't enjoy herself.
"My husband tried to wheel me around in my wheelchair and it was impossible," Horowitz-Willis told the Village Council on Thursday. "We just gave up and left."
She's concerned the 163-acre site isn't sufficiently handicap friendly.
"I can't even get to the stage," Horowitz-Willis aid. "The way it's been drawn up, (the park) doesn't allow you (to get) where the vendors are. I find that to be a big problem."
Vice Mayor David Swift didn't disagree.
"You're not the only one," he said. "I've heard other [More]
Polo club president: Don't call Wellington's equestrian area a 'preserve'
- 6:45 am Saturday, October 18th, 2014 by Kristen M. Clark
WELLINGTON — International Polo Club president John Wash is clear on how he sees Wellington's designated equestrian area: It's a "district," not a "preserve."
"That has always been one of my pet peeves," Wash said this week. "I don't think there's anything out there we're trying to preserve, like the Loxahatchee preserve or anything like that."
"We're trying to have an equestrian district that is viable today and for years to come," he said.
Wash's comments came during an hourlong discussion between IPC representatives and the Equestrian Preserve Committee on Thursday about the club's long-term plans in Wellington. (Wash said the club itself [More]
Royal Palm mayor misses council meeting due to 'minor procedure'
- 12:50 pm Friday, October 17th, 2014 by Kevin D. Thompson
ROYAL PALM BEACH — Mayor Matty Mattioli was absent for last nigh'ts Village Council meeting due to what Vice Mayor David Swift said was a "minor procedure."
Swift said he expects Mattioli back at the next meeting.
Mattioli has been battling a number of health issues recently and missed three consecutive meetings after having surgery, suffering from an infection and later falling inside his home.
The 87-year-old Mattioli returned for the Oct. 2 meeting, but admitted he was a little "rusty."
Wellington equestrian venues to share their long-term visions
- 3:00 pm Thursday, October 16th, 2014 by Kristen M. Clark
WELLINGTON — As part of the village's effort to create an equestrian master plan, representatives from Wellington's sporting venues will be making presentations before the Equestrian Preserve Committee in the coming weeks.
The hearings start tonight, with officials from the International Polo Club and Polo West scheduled to address the committee at its 7 p.m. workshop. (The meeting is open to the public and is at village hall, 12300 Forest Hill Blvd.)

Can music and art inspire children who are victims of domestic violence? One shelter thinks so
- 7:25 am Thursday, October 16th, 2014 by Kevin D. Thompson
ROYAL PALM BEACH — Kids who are victims of domestic violence and neglect have seen and heard some horrific things, things that often leave them without a voice and not knowing how to verbally express their troubled thoughts or emotions.
But sometimes those emotions and thoughts bubble to the surface in violent or destructive ways because the kids don't know any better. In a sense, that's the only way many of them know how to communicate.

Keep Calm and Karate Chop Cobwebs
Toiling away I have been. (Yoda talk is weird when you see it typed out.) Writing more than on WIP is tough, chaotic, tiresome, you know. But the Force is strong in this one (ME!) and it is a must that I work in this way. I don't know about you guys but having all sorts of ideas sitting upstairs for too long is no fun. I'd rather be cursing at myself during the hours most people sleep than to have stories just waiting around making cobwebs in my skully region.
But we is all different.
Book two (the last book) to the Eramane saga will be heading to my editor soon and its release will be a catharsis for me. I've been working on this story for a long time and I'm ready for my fans to know what happens to her and her comrades. So excited!
The title reveal is fast approaching (Oct 13) and the cover reveal will come shortly after. It's still in its design phase. I have all my focus on getting this book out in time for Black Friday, so that I can get my YA Sci-Fi project out in January 2015 and hopefully get a combined edition of both Eramane books available in February.
Well, the rain just stopped, so I have to go walk my dog.
I'm so fancy…and so on
Hello to every person who happens to stop in and read this!!
I have been hard at work, can't you see? I hooked my site up so that your eyes don't dry out and fall from their sockets whilst you are visiting…ain't it pretty!!!
It took lots of time and research to learn the ins and outs of WordPress, but I think I did a good job, and more importantly I feel the site represents me and not just my work.
So, in the near future, I will post about how I did this redesign, and hopefully give some good advice to those who need it. For those of you who are far superior in your techness, leave a reply and learn me something. To the rest of you who might be first timers leave questions and I will do my best to point you in the right direction.
Starting up a site is tough (like putting out a campfire with your face) and I've only been at it for fourteen months, but if you are determined, as I ams, then you'll eventually overcome the crazies of creating your own website/blog/home away from home/…
Blog Changes (sounds like an interesting read right?)
Here's the deal pickle; this blog will be undergoing some changes.
Not this kind of change.
Some really cool things are happening in my writer world and because of that I am directing all power from my brain cells to my work. Because of this…
I will be converting my blog to the website for my works. There will still be a Blog tab, but I will be using it for write-ups on events and such. But….
If you truly dig what I do and want to keep riding the Frankie Ash train, hook up with me on Twitter and Instagram (author_frankie_ash). Also….
I am working on a newsletter that I would like to send out on the regular, so when I get that ready to go, I will post here to direct you guys where you can go to email sign up. Ya dig?
While I have your attention (and if I don't…HELLOOOO!!!) I would like to tell you guys to look out for the August issue of Sci Fi magazine. ERAMANE will be in it!!!!! And, if you happen to live in/around/other prepositions that work the Winchester, VA area, the lovely folks at Winchester Book Gallery are hosting a signing for ERAMANE August 16th at 3p.m.

Upon hearing the reports this morning of Angry Robot Books discontinuing two imprints: Strange Chemistry and Exhibit A Books, I immediately went to the Twitter feed that surrounded this news. Hundreds of authors/readers/industry professionals are tweeting their thoughts/condolences and it shows how extremely personal this feels to all us authors/bookish folks, (I'll stop forward-slashing everything now).
My first reaction was to Tweet my 140 character "sorry" but then it occurred to me that I have a bigger voice than 140 characters. I have a fan base (small, but powerful…so I like to think) and it's my obligation to pull my efforts in another way. I can actually support these authors.
Frankie, what are you getting at? Are you a magician? All this holding out has got me on my seat's edge. All thoughts I'd like to think ya'll are thinking.
So, here are my thoughts. The purpose of this blog is 1) to inform those who do not know of this new. Read it here. And 2) to list the authors affected by this and their works so yous (yeah yous) can go show your support (actions are louder than words).
Go forth yee readers\authors\industry professionals (I said I wouldn't forward slash gah) buy a book! Post it with your lovely face or cat or dog or ferret or ant collection. Show off your fabulous Tropical Smoothie alongside your newly purchased book! I'll have mine up as soon as I get out today to get one. And don't forget to hash-tag them! Or use this one #happytosupport. Eh? I'm open to suggestions on that one.
And, if you are unable to dish out the dollahs, support these authors by other means. Give them a shout out on Twitter, write a blog post on one or more of your favorite authors from these imprints, vlog yourself, or your dog, or cat, or ferret, or ant collection? rolling around in copies you might already own…spread the word man!
I HAVE ARRIVED…safely back home.
I'm back from my trip to the Book Expo America in New York. I had so much fun…once I stopped freaking out.
Here's my little story…
I went with a team…my peeps, and we represented ERAMANE as best we could, minus the banter we flung at passers-by (I think at one point I said all vowels to one lady.)
When we arrive at the Javits Center, I was immediately congratulated by the lady who checked my in and gave me and my team out badges (thanks nice lady) and that set the tone for the rest of my experience.
I was extremely nervous, because here I am, little ol' me, among (by that I mean off in a corner, nowhere near them) some of the greatest writers of today. Yet, from the moment I walked through the doors I was treated like "the Queen," as Margaery Tyrell says in Game of Thrones.
Once I found the IBPA booth, I was immediately greeted by Terry Nathan and Molly ??? (I'm sure she has a last name, but in this post it's a series of question marks.) They took me in and fed me, no better way to put it really. Thanks guys!
The signing was a hit; I ran out of 30 books in under 15 minutes (who knew?) and had to hand out rain-check forms to the ones who didn't get their free signed copy.
All-in-all, though, despite that I ran out of books, ERAMANE was noticed. My sign caught the attention of anyone who walked by…and there were soooo many! I even heard people say, "Hey I saw that online." And, "WTF???!!! Really? Awesome!" to myself of course.
Oh, and my husband lost his [soul]. Yup the bottom of his shoe came right off just before we reached the Javits Center. Funny story…I'm going tell it.
Okay, so we were walking from the ferry terminal to the BEA and we all heard this duck-ish noise. My husband, holding a box of ERAMANE books, looks down and sees that his sole is flappin'. Then (and you might not believe this) we look across the street and a truck opens it back door and guess what's inside??? Yes!!! Fricking black shoes just like the ones my hubs is wearing. Boxes and boxes. They just start unloading them onto a table and putting yellow signs up with prices. It was crazy. But no, we didn't buy any…he had another pair in the car back at the hotel, so I just told him to walk quietly, "Don't draw attention to it!" His shoe made it back to the car at the end of the day…then to the trash:(
Well if you made it this far, I'm happy that you cared enough to learn about my experience at my first ever book expo. The way things are going, it looks like I will be attending many more. I belong in the book world; I plan on staying here.
Blog hopping…Why and how I write what I write
So, Lindsay Cummings (author chic who wrote a book I can't wait to read…The Murder Complex) unofficially called me (by me I mean everyone) out to write a post on their writing process. At first I was like, "I don't wanna, cause my writing process is top secret and, well, I don't want to have to flash that little red light from M.I.B I, II, and that other one in ALL.THE.EYES. But then I figured, why not, I haven't used it in a while.
So, hopping on Mrs. Lindsay's Divulge your most secrety secrets train, I shall reveal.
1. What am I working on?- At this very moment I have a doc opened and minimized, and it's labeled "My Sci-Fi WIP". Most of you know a little about it because I have posted some peak-a-boos on my blog. But it's quite more than just a YA Sci-Fi book, as they all are right? Am I right? I'm right. But aside from that, my lips are sealed, like a…(you choose the visual metaphor) and as Forrest Gump says, "That's all I have to say about that."
2. How does my work differ from other's of its genre?- Hmmm. It just does. It's different because there isn't a ton of young adult sci-fi out there. It's different because of its plot and its characters and their motivations and the setting and the characters, and it's a total left fielder for me. I believed (before I busted out this awesome monster) that I could only live and write in the realm of fantasy, because I love it so. But I'm also a huge sci-fi fan and exploring that side of my writing has opened me up to writing all kinds of different things…like my short story Serial Wanda. You member that post don't you? Member?
3. Why do I write what I do?- Because I grew up watching movies like Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, Legend, Star Wars…I mean…I just…I love it like I love my own blood. Yes, that sounds strange but think about it…think about your blood and how sad (and dead) you'd be if you didn't have it anymore. See.
4. How does your writing process work?- It's not really a process because it's not a rhythmic thing I do.
In short, I write every day.
In long, my mornings are precious. The Earth is quiet and it gives me a chance to be still and let my creativity do its thang. It's hard to write on my WIP every day because there are also other things that I have to write: blog posts, Twitter snarkies (insert your own definition…it's more funner that way), Facebook…all the social media what-nots. But at least four days of the week are devoted to my project and on a good day (three or more cups of coffee) I can knock out 3500-4000 words, on a regular day (one cup), 1500-2000. But, there are those special moments when you HAVE to write. Those moments when you wake up in the middle of the night and can't do anything else but drag yourself to the computer and work. I love those. And on those occasions I have written some of my best content.
That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

Las Vegas police arrested two men last week who are accused of sexually assaulting a couple of teenage girls in Nebraska.
The two 24-year-olds were wanted on charges of first-degree sexual assault. They allegedly tied up a 15-year-old and a 14-year-old for several days and sexually assaulted them.
Deputy Police Chief Christian Montaño said Nebraska authorities had put out an alert for the two men. And just a few days before they men showed up in Las Vegas, they had fled from state police in Kansas.
The city has approved a doublewide mobile home for a lot on Calle Bonita, but some residents are objecting to that decision.
Some years ago, a house burned down at 2403 Calle Bonita, and the lot has been vacant since then. On July 11, the city approved a permit for the trailer, signed by an employee in the community development department.
However, Porfirio Campos, who lives next door, told the City Council last week that he and other residents object to the inclusion of a mobile home. He said they would have been more comfortable with a modular.
Residents near Robertson High School again urged officials to crack down on students parking in their neighborhood.
Las Vegas City Schools officials say they have plenty of parking at the high school and that no one needs to be parking on the street. They have called on the city to restrict student parking on nearby streets.
City officials say they now have signs ordered to take care of the issue.
A loose dog attacked a 74-year-old man in a wheelchair last week, city police said.
According to the police, the dog attacked another canine and then it went after the victim, Jose Gurulé, in the 400 block of Blanchard Street around 7 p.m. Thursday.
A witness said Gurulé was knocked down to the ground, Deputy Police Chief Christian Montaño said. The dog didn't bite the man, Montaño said.
The state has dropped drug charges against Anthony Leroy Benavidez.
Marc Grano, Benavidez's attorney, said the dismissal came less than two hours before a hearing that would have brought into question the reliability of Michael Strand Jr., the confidential informant in the case.
Strand is currently in custody awaiting trial on charges that he stabbed to death, and then set on fire, Roberto Mendez in Mora.
District Attorney Richard Flores said the decision to dismiss the case was based in part on a recording provided by Grano the day before.
Lucas Martinez, who was implicated in the assaults at last year's Robertson High School football camp, registered Tuesday as a student at West Las Vegas High School.
Lucas Martinez, one of the suspects in the assaults at last year's Robertson High School football camp, registered this as a student at West Las Vegas High School.
Marcus Gutierrez, another one of the suspects, enrolled a few weeks ago, officials said.
Superintendent Jim Abreu said the district had heard Martinez has been planning on enrolling. He said Martinez, who received a long-term suspension from the Las Vegas City Schools, came in with his mother to register.
West Las Vegas High School teacher John Duran says he's ready for school to start, and like many other teachers in Las Vegas, he spent most of his summer vacation in the teaching mode.
If that sounds boring, Duran quickly dispels the notion.
"I took a week off, and then began getting ready to teach engineering, graphics, and auto computer-aided design for the New Mexico MESA Summer Enrichment Program," he said.
Rancho Valmora, a residential treatment center for troubled teens, is in the process of closing.
The facility's parent organization, Social Learning Environments, is consolidating Rancho Valmora's operations into centers in Fort Davis, Texas, and Missoula, Mont.
Rancho Valmora started near Watrous in the early 1990s and is believed to have been the largest private employer in Mora County at one point. It is unclear how many employees will lose their jobs as a result of the shutdown.
About 40 people turned out for a special West Las Vegas school board forum called to hear concerns from parents, staff, students and concerned citizens.
After the meeting was gaveled to order, a good portion of her meeting was taken by board members arguing about what direction the meeting should take, what kind of questions would be heard, or if there would be any kind of interaction between the board and the audience.

Rare photos of The Beatles for sale
Unpublished early colour photographs of The Beatles' first U.S. tour will be sold at a U.K. auction.
The photos were taken during the rock band's 1964 visit to the U.S., when colour film was expensive and most images of the group were in black and white.
The collection of 65 slides contains many stage shots, including George Harrison with his legendary red Rickenbacker guitar and close-up portraits from a Las Vegas Sahara Hotel press conference and Las Vegas Convention Centre gig.
The images were taken by Dr. Robert Beck, who died in 2002 and left them in an archive of photographs and slides in his Hollywood home.
Omega Auctions said the images will be sold March 22 -- exactly 50 years after The Beatles released their first album.

SYC foundation races to meet Cuba regatta deadline
Date: February 11, 2010
by: Robin Hartill | Community Editor
Hemingway International Yacht Club of Cuba Commodore Jose Miguel Diaz Escrich expressed optimism at a press conference Wedneday at Sarasota Yacht Club about the Sarasota-Havana Regatta.
"This year is the 80th anniversary of the first sailing regatta from Florida to Havana," Estrich said through a translator. "The same seas that separate us are the same seas that unite us."
The Sarasota-Havana Regatta is scheduled for May. But the Sarasota Yacht Club Charitable Foundation will need OFAC approval by Feb. 15 and all additional governmental approvals by March 31 to conduct the Sarasota-Havana Regatta. If the yacht-club foundation doesn't receive approval by those deadlines, the race will be rescheduled for May 2011.
Approval will be based on the race's humanitarian mission.
"We're looking at what Cuban children may need to pursue sailing," said Sarasota Yacht Club Commodore Kay Goodman.

She accused me of lying to her face when I didn't, and yelled at me in front of the whole grade for slouching in my seat during the end of year movie thing. I just can't stand her it's unreal.
