Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial raises over $7 million for charity
November 30, 2012
FORTH WORTH, Texas—The Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial capped off a record $7-million year in fundraising November 30 by distributing its final donations to 77 local charities at the annual Colonial Country Club Charities Holiday Breakfast. Throughout the year, more than $7 million has been generated and distributed to more than 100 organizations as a result of the PGA TOUR event.
The championship's successful fundraising for dozens of local charities places it among the top five on the PGA TOUR in 2012. According to tournament officials, the Birdies for Charity component of the tournament's annual fundraising efforts brought in more than $5.4 million, one of the best such programs on the PGA TOUR. In that program, 30 local non-profit organizations solicited pledges from individuals and corporations for every birdie made during the 2012 Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial. As a bonus, the pledge efforts were energized by a matching fund of $162,000 from Crowne Plaza Hotels & Resorts, Colonial Country Club and other supporting companies.
"It's very gratifying to achieve a record level of impact for our community," noted Colonial Country Club President Vance Minter. "Many dedicated people put in a lot of hard work that results in the success of raising these charity dollars in a difficult economy. The members at Colonial are proud to be part of this effort."
The tournament has generated cash and services for more than 150 different organizations in the last two decades totaling over $53 million. That includes more than $8 million generated for its primary beneficiary, Cook Children's Medical Center. The breadth of donations focus on children and support a variety of programs, including camp scholarships for disabled, special needs or low-income children, residency programs/services for abused, neglected and at-risk children, cultural programs/field trips for underserved students, college scholarships, educational mentoring programs, medical diagnostic and treatment services for disabled and low-income children, after-school programs, support services for homeless families and more.
The tournament surpassed the $1-million mark in annual giving in 1998 and has exceeded that level every year since. This is the first year the event has surpassed the $7-million plateau.
"These charities provide important services for so many young people and families in our area," shared Craig Nicholson, chairman of the Colonial Country Club Charities Committee. "We are thrilled to help improve the lives of needy children in our community, and to honor the great work of all these organizations."

Why call it the WHINE LINE if there is no phone number to call? My 4 year old needs to vent!
Sheriff Treetrunk, silly paper awards for just about anything do not make poor pay, poor morale, badly designed new shifts, loss of float days and more just go away. When's the next election?
Man plans; God laughs.
Let's say I have 30′ of chain and want to sell it. I ask $30. Somebody comes, looks at it, and says: "Will you take $25 for it?" I say "sure," and the deal is done. How come I can't walk into Wal-Mart and ask them if they'll take $2.25 for their $2.99 bottle of catsup?
The resignation of Dr. Tonia Mason is not a good omen for Augusta Commissioner and mayoral candidate Alvin Mason. First, he appears on the cover of the Jail Report for a suspected domestic violence incident. Now, his ex-wife resigns as Principal of Lucy C. Laney High School while under investigation by the school board. Voters beware! Remember Ed McIntyre.
How can a Board of Education member have the authority to raise property taxes, but yet fail to pay his own. Board member Alex Howard's LLC Sunset Villas list 5 properties in Richmond County with several delinquent tax bills. He is running again, all elected officials should be required to disclose any unpaid taxes before they can run for office.
On Thursday May 1st, our group visited your location in Evans. We asked to see the manager after 45 minutes with no food. The manager never showed. When the food came, two kids in our party both had hair in their slices of pizza. Upon checking out we met the manager who gave us moms each $20 gift cards. We won't be using them. Every time it's the same. We're done.
I cannot see myself supporting Corey Johnson for State Senate with has 56 people when has not made an impact on the 10 body Augusta Commission.
Did sam Nunns daughter grow up, attend any school or really have much afilliation with The state of Georgia? I assumed she was a beltway baby after viewing those ancient photos with her grandmother that seem a bit pretentious! Funny how she doesn't mention a marital name or party affiliation …. While I am at it, here we go again while there are 100's of millions of people in this to choose from we some how get stuck deciding the Country the top office between a Clinton and a Bush. You keep telling yourselves you have. Choice! MARK my words,,,
That was horrifying that the Butlers of the Augusta Mini Theatre would think it was OK to go on unemployment as a way to reduce their debts. That's insane! A RAVE for Stacey Eidson's attention to details to present a full story on this. Another aspect I'd like for her to check: See if the Augusta Mini Theatre expenses lists the Georgia Personnel as handling their payroll in any way. Georgia Personnel (or whatever the new name is) is run by The Walker Group of Charles Walker, the big time supporter the Butlers credited. Note from federal papers and records before the 2005 conviction just how many of Walker's supporters used the Georgia Personnel, besides the forced MCG. I believe the Lucy Craft Laney Museum of Black History also used it and the huge question was that how does a small museum need Georgia Personnel at XXX amount to handle payroll? Especially when Monique Walker was on the board of the museum in some capacity? Go, Stacey, go with the story flow!
my whine: how did the designs for cars, clothing and shoes take this distressing trend toward ugliness? what happened to class, style, charm, good looks? who wants to drive an ugly car that looks like a box or something spawned from a malfunctioning assembly-line nightmare in a steven king movie? who wants shoes that look like sadist-masochism gear or the brainchild of a deranged pervert? where's the allure in clothing that looks like it was made for an institutionalized psycho-schizophrenic or low-class crack-addicted stripper? i say modern america merchandisers and manufacturers have their heads up their collective asses. unfortunately, it appears many consumers also have their heads up their asses, too, cause a lot of 'em actually go out and purchase this crap.

On Feb. 21, at approximately 3 p.m., my wife and I went to the Culpeper McDonald's for our daily break, which we have done many times in the past years. It's a time to share our thoughts, plans, and dreams for tomorrow. As we are 81, and 85 respectively, it's a sweet time of fellowship, which we enjoy, which helps sustain our marriage of 63 years. We usually go in the early afternoon when there are fewer customers.
While we were eating, an employee was cleaning the floors and my wife asked her if she would mind not cleaning around our table until we were finished because of the dust it stirs up. Apparently the employee mentioned this to the manager who shortly, thereafter, came to our table and asked us to leave as we had used our 30 minutes of time allotted for customers who eat in. We were not asked to move to another of the many vacant tables, or perhaps sharing a table with one of the WiFi customers who appear to spend a great amount of time with their computers at the establishment, rather we were asked to leave.
I have had many experiences in my lifetime as a WWII veteran, a university teacher, a Professional Engineer, a retiree from the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization at the Pentagon, and the father of six children - three of whom are also senior citizens - but none as unusual as being asked to leave a restaurant so they could clean the floor under and around the table where I sat.
I wanted to bring this to the attention of the people of Culpeper who may frequent McDonald's, to know that the manager may ask them to leave after they have used their 30 minutes of time allotted there for eating in because it may interfere with McDonald's floor cleaning where they may be sitting.
As gracefully as we could, under the circumstances, we quietly excused ourselves and left with a topic of conversation we will remember for many years to come. The situation was so unbelievable, that it didn't so much as raise a feeling of hostility, or embarrassment - but this may not be the case with others. I think the old adage of forewarned, is forearmed is applicable in this case.
Carl E. Becker, Rixeyville

Samsung has seen incredible success with its Android devices over the years. The Korean OEM didn't have to change much from one year to the next, but still the smartphone-consuming public was practically begging to trade up to the latest and greatest Galaxy S. Then something changed with the Galaxy S5—despite being a competent phone in almost every way, sales were below projections. Samsung's profits declined when they should have been skyrocketing.
For people living in the large swathes of the US where Verizon Wireless is the only real option, your chance to get the second generation Moto X has arrived. The handset is now available on the carrier's site for $99.99 with a two-year contract, though the price differs with other payment options depending on color. The site is showing the black one available for $24.99 a month with Verizon Edge or $499.99 outright.
Update: the app has been pulled from the Play Store, presumably because of the "Chrome" name. You can now find it under the name ARChon Packager.
Earlier this month, Google officially made it possible to run a handful of Android apps on Chrome OS. Hardly a week later, a developer came along and produced a means of running theoretically any Android app within Chrome on Windows, Mac, and Linux (including Chromebooks).
For all the grief we give Samsung tablets about fake leather and physical home buttons, the higher tiers of hardware have some great specs. Speed demons and resolution fanatics might be particularly enthralled with the Tab Pro series, all of which feature 2560x1600 screens. If you appreciate the hardware but could do without Samsung's Android skin, the developers at CyanogenMod now support the Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1.
CyanogenMod 11 nightlies are already available for the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4, giving users of two out of the four tablets in the series access to AOSP-style software with rapid updates.
Getting OTA updates out the door is no easy task, especially with carriers standing between the OEM and users. That's why Motorola has long used soak tests with small groups of users to hammer out bugs before the final certification. HTC has just posted details of its own "HTC Preview" program that does essentially the same thing.
Galaxy S4 Active users on AT&T, don't get too excited when you see a new software update message appear in your notification bar. This is a minor update with minor changes, and once you apply it the phone will still be running the same Android 4.4.2 build that you've had since June. According to an AT&T support page, the update includes just three things:
What's changing?
- Connectivity improvements related to receiving calls and text messaging
- Security patch
- Updated Google apps
We've got no idea what kind of updated Google apps Ma Bell put in there, since Google prefers to do its own updating via the Play Store these days.
Google's Chrome browser is our go-to web tool on Android, but there are plenty of reasons not to like it, like the way the latest version hides the refresh button in a drop-down menu. For those users who aren't happy with the status quo, one of the more refreshing alternatives is Javelin, and independent browser made with a unique interface and Material Design visual elements. The latest update (4.1.3) includes some more advanced bookmarks and syncing features.
The Fire Phone is reportedly selling very poorly, but surely this will get things back on track. Amazon has released two new games (sort of) that include support for Dynamic Perspective on the Fire Phone. They're both free... if only you had a Fire Phone.
Posted in Droid-life's comments section earlier, this photo seems to depict a very large Motorola device next to an AT&T-branded LG G3. The G3 has a 5.5" display. This unknown Motorola hardware thus has a display substantially larger than 5.5", say somewhere in the 5.9" neighborhood maybe? So yes, this very well could be Shamu, the upcoming Nexus phone that we're pretty sure is going to be a thing in the near-ish future.
eBay just loves discounting that 2013 Nexus 7, or at least a lot of the merchants that use eBay do. Google's perennial 7-inch tablet is back on the Daily Deal list, this time in a 32GB Wi-Fi flavor. The tablet is going for $159.99, a full $110 off of the retail price in the Play Store, so long as you're OK with a refurbished unit.

Ruth's Chris Steak House is the largest fine dining restaurant company in the United States, as measured by the number of restaurants. Their menu features a broad selection of high quality USDA Prime grade steaks and other premium offerings served in Ruth's Chris' "sizzling" signature fashion, which is topped with seasoned butter and complemented by other traditional menu items inspired by the company's New Orleans heritage. They offer a dining experience that appeals to families and special occasion diners, in addition to the business clientele traditionally served by fine dining steakhouses.
Ruth's Chris Steak House was founded in 1965 when Ruth Fertel mortgaged her home for $22,000 to purchase the "Chris Steak House," a 60-seat restaurant located near the New Orleans Fair Grounds racetrack. Today, there are over 100 Ruth's Chris Steak House restaurants, including international franchisee-owned restaurants in Mexico, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Canada. In Pittsburgh, Ruth's operates a restaurant in downtown's PPG Place.
PPG Place is a magnificent cathedral of glass and is home to PPG Industries as well as other major Pittsburgh companies.
Located next to historic Market Square on five and one-half acres, the six building complex surrounds a one-acre grand plaza which is home to various events and activities in the summer months; from mid-November to early March it is transformed into a spectacular skating rink. During the holidays, a stunning 65-foot Christmas tree dominates the plaza.
The restaurant is open Monday through Thursday, 11:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.; Friday & Saturday, 11:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.; and Sunday, 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
PPG Place has its own parking garage on Third Avenue. There are other lots and garages nearby. For more information, call (412) 323-4455.

In April, we celebrated National Poetry Month by featuring poets and poetry books in our social media channels. We also invited our Twitter friends to join us in creating poetry online together.
During the week of April 21st through 25th, we switched our focus from reading poetry to writing poetry and experimented with an interactive Twitter event: our first-ever Bookshare Community Poetry Jam!
You, our fun-loving Bookshare members, educators, volunteers, parents, and accessibility advocates, rocked this event with creativity, sentiment, humor, and love. During the week, anyone could tweet lines of poetry day or night using the #PoetryJam hashtag.
Our staff suggested daily themes, retweeted participants' poetry, held poetry jam "office hours" for live interaction, and tweeted a few poems of their own. With plenty of real-time interaction and poems both serious and silly, we consider our experiment a success! Thanks to all who participated or helped to spread news of the event.
Here are just a few of the wonderful poems you tweeted:
Poem tweeted by @CanesEagle1 (Jimmy Vonderlinden): "listening is reading, and with reading comes a more open mind."
Poem by Madilyn, age 9, tweeted by educator @WePerceive: "An octopus wearing a hat; a cat sitting on a mat. A giraffe reading a book about how to cook."
Earth Day haiku tweeted by @keregan (Kerri Regan): "Listen to the birds, Feel the breeze ruffle your hair, This is your planet."
Poem tweeted by Brie of @Fedora_Outlier: "Read with out your eyes. Listen to the words spoken out loud. Books are always a joy."
Poem tweeted by @JonDresner: "I have many books I have not read all of them… but I still want more."
For extra fun, we used Storify to turn each day's tweets into a story. You can link to them below and let us know which poems are your favorites by leaving a comment on this blog, Facebook or Twitter.
Day 1: Monday reading and the craving for chocolate bunnies.
Day 2: In celebration of Earth Day, nature-themed haiku.
Day 3: For World Book Day, poems about books and authors.
Day 4: Poems incorporating book titles.
Day 5: Bookshare haiku and poetry jam wrap-up.

By Francis Wilkinson

Can Rick Perry save Barack Obama? A slew of new polls suggests the president is in deep trouble heading into 2012. In a typical sounding, the Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll found that 44 percent of Americans approve of the job Obama is doing while 51 percent disapprove.

Those are ugly numbers. But another number might factor into a prospective Obama versus Perry race: 52 million. That's roughly the number of Americans who receive Social Security.

Perry, the governor of Texas, has called Social Security a "Ponzi scheme." He also told Andrew Romano at TheDailyBeast.com that Medicare and Social Security weren't the sort of things the Founding Fathers had in mind when they said that government should provide for the general welfare. "From my perspective," Perry said, "the states could substantially better operate those programs if that's what those states decided to do."

If Republicans nominate Perry, it's hard to believe the Obama camp won't exploit his disdain for Medicare and Social Security in a consistent advertising barrage. Voters, of course, don't watch such ads in isolation. They see them in the context of all the other ads on TV, along with whatever is percolating in the news.

And that's  where Representative Paul Ryan comes in. All but a handful of House and Senate Republicans voted in favor of his budget plan, which sought to transform Medicare, the health care system for Americans over age 65, into a voucher system that, over time, would cover an increasingly smaller portion of the average beneficiary's  medical bills.

Democrats warned that the Ryan budget was politically toxic; in a special election in New York's 26th congressional district in May, they appeared to prove it. Democrat Kathy Hochul won the conservative district by tying her opponent to the Ryan plan. Congressional Democrats have been preparing to campaign on Medicare ever since.

If Democratic Senate and House campaigns are busy attacking their Republican opponents on Medicare -- a likely prospect at this remove -- and the Obama campaign is making Medicare and Social Security the basis of attacks on Perry, the Democrats could find themselves with a highly unusual (for Democrats) degree of message unity.

Obama lost the 65-and-over vote by 10 points in 2008. In the 2010 midterm, Republicans won that demographic by a whopping 16 points. Those are two good reasons for Democrats to focus on Medicare and Social Security in 2012. As Obama's sinking poll numbers show, two better reasons are the economy and unemployment, which look like they will continue to be dismal topics for the White House.

When the NASCAR Sprint Cup Circuit hits Pocono Raceway this weekend for the GoBowling.com 400 several drivers will be sporting unique paint schemes. When your driver runs a different paint scheme it tends to make the race that much more exciting. For the drivers running different schemes are also important because they obviously want to win for whatever sponsor or cause they are running the different scheme for.
Here is a special peek at this weeks schemes.
Of the drivers that are sporing special paint schemes this weekend, all eyes should be on Jeff Gordon and the No. 24 team. Gordon is riding a huge wave of momentum after winning his second race of 2014 and the fifth Brickyard 400 of his career. With six races left before the chase Gordon will want to win at least once more to join Brad Keselowski and Jimmie Johnson who each have three wins. Aside from Gordon fans should also keep an eye on Kevin Harvick who has been fast all year long and Dale Earnhardt Jr. who won at Pocono earlier this season.

Egyptians Battle In The Streets Outside Morsi's Palace

- Text Size
December 6, 2012 2:49 PM EST
Egyptian Islamists and secular protesters by the thousands battled with fists, rocks and firebombs in the streets around the presidential palace in Cairo for hours Wednesday night in the worst violence since the revolution, The New York Times reported.
According to the Health Ministry, four people have died and 350 wounded in the clashes by Thursday morning.
Four senior advisers to President Mohamed Morsi resigned, blaming him for the bloodshed, and his prime minister pleaded with both sides to pull back in order to make room for "dialogue."
A presidential source told Reuters Morsi was expected to make a statement later on Thursday. His opponents had earlier called on him to address the nation to help calm the streets.
The scale of the clashes, in the affluent Heliopolis neighborhood just outside the palace, raised doubts about Morsi's attempt to hold a referendum on Dec. 15 to approve a draft constitution rushed through by his Islamist allies.
Periodic gunshot blasts could be heard at the front lines of the fight, the Times reported, and secular protesters displayed birdshot wounds and pellets. But it could not be determined who -- police or either warring side -- had fired the guns.
Many in both camps wielded clubs, and on the secular side a few carried knives. By 11 p.m., more than 211 people had been injured, the health ministry said. Each side claimed that at least one of its own had been killed.
The riot police tried to fight off or break up the crowds with tear gas, but by about 9:30 p.m. the security forces had all but withdrawn. They continued to try to separate the two sides across one boulevard but stayed out of the battle that raged on all around.
In a city square on the Islamist side of the battle lines, a loudspeaker on the top of a moving car proclaimed, "This is not a fight for an individual, this is not a fight for President Morsi. We are fighting for God's law, against the secularists and liberals."
Protesters reportedly set fire to Muslim Brotherhood political offices in the cities of Suez and Ismailia.
"The solution is to go to the ballot box," Mahmoud Ghozlan, a spokesman for Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood, told the Associated Press, asserting the charter was "the best constitution Egypt ever had."
Adding to Morsi's troubles, four of his advisers resigned, joining two other members of his 17-member advisory panel who have abandoned him since the crisis began.
Mohamed ElBaradei, a leading opposition figure, said Morsi's rule was "no different" than Hosni Mubarak's.
"In fact, it is perhaps even worse," the Nobel Peace Prize laureate told a news conference after he accused the president's supporters of a "vicious and deliberate" attack on peaceful demonstrators outside the palace.
"Cancel the constitutional declarations, postpone the referendum, stop the bloodshed, and enter a direct dialogue with the national forces," he wrote on his Twitter account, addressing Morsi.
"History will give no mercy and the people will not forget."
Vice President Mahmoud Mekky, in a bid to calm the situation, said amendments to disputed articles in the constitution could be agreed with the opposition. A written agreement could then go to the new parliament to be elected after the referendum.
"There must be consensus," he told a news conference inside the presidential palace as fighting raged outside on Wednesday evening, saying opposition demands had to be respected.
Prime Minister Hisham Kandil called for calm to "give the opportunity" for efforts to start a national dialogue.
Speaking at NATO in Brussels, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the unrest shows the urgent need for dialogue between Morsi's government and opposing voices on a constitutional path going forward.
"We call on all stakeholders in Egypt to settle their differences through democratic dialogue and we call on Egypt's leaders to ensure that the outcome protects the democratic promise of the revolution for all of Egypt's citizens," she said.

Started with a phone interview. I acutally received an offer directly after the single, phone-based interview. I turned it down as I wanted to meet/speak with other people in the organization who I would be working with and so that I had time to conduct my own due dilligence activities. Over the course of another 6-weeks during which I spoke with a number of other people both directly and by phone, I was told that I had the position but that a starting point would be contingent upon available work closing. The process became a back and forth conversation for the subsequent 6 months until another formal offer was made and we negotiated an agreement.Interview Questions
