The big trophy went to Brevard Christian -- and well it should have, the War Eagles having beaten Jacksonviulle Forrest 73-51 in the boys championship game of the second annual J.C. Green Memorial Tournament at St. Joseph Academy.
MVP Cedric Bailey headed Brevard Christian's all-tournament picks; he was joined by teammates Desmond Greene and E.J. Murray. Forrest placed Chris McNair and Dwain Russell on the all-tourney team.
Meanwhile, the third place trophy went to Pedro Menendez -- and the Falcons like it just fine, thank you.
Sure, they'd have preferred playing for the championship Saturday night, but to take third place meant not only beating a county rival -- St. Joseph in game closer than the 69-46 final suggests -- but showing significant resiliency.
"I was a lot more proud of our guys (for) bouncing back from last night than (for) the victory tonight," said Menendez coach Steve Melgard, whose club dropped a 62-61 heartbreaker to Forrest in Friday's semifinals.
The Falcons (7-6) seemed to be in a funk for at least the first quarter Saturday.
Tim Connor scored five points, Travis Martin four as the Flashes (6-7) broke on top 11-2 less than four minutes into the game. Menendez recovered somewhat and was within 16-11 by the end of the first quarter.
St. Joseph scored first in the second period, but the Falcons went ahead to stay with a 15-0 run. Andre Singleton scored inside to give Menendez its first lead, 20-18, with 5:23 left in the half, and it was 26-18 before J.P. Clark stopped the bleeding for the Flashes with a three-pointer.
It was 27-23 at halftime.
The Falcons made noises about pulling away in the third quarter -- a pull-up jumper by Karl Kemp gave them a 42-33 lead with 19 seconds left in period -- but the Flashes managed four points before the fourth started. Clark made two free throws after being fouled as time expired to pull St. Joseph within 42-37.
Mike Motyl's short jumper made it 42-39 at the outset of the fourth quarter, but that's as close as it got.
Fouls, fatigue and Falcons all got to the Flashes down the stretch.
St. Joseph was in hailing distance, down 53-45 with 3:56 remaining, but Timmy Callum's twisting, underhanded layup began the 16-1 run with which Menendez would finish the game.
One St. Joseph player, all-tournament pick Travis Martin, fouled out down the stretch and three others -- Clark, Connor and Jason Rosacia -- would each finish the game with four fouls.
"Fatigue played a part," said St. Joseph coach Bob Esguerra. "A lot of these guys played a lot of minutes. We played a roadrunner-type team (Brevard Christian) last night. We started out tonight with OK wheels, but didn't finish strong."
Melgard was happy to see the Falcons cash in at the free throw line.
"That was nice for a change," he said. "I was really proud of the overall effort. Everybody that played came ready to play."
The Falcons' T.C. Davis led all scorers with 25 points, joined in double figures by Kemp with 19. Both Kemp and Davis were named to the all-tournament team.
"I feel good about where we're at," said Melgard, whose team returns to action against District 5-3A rival Interlachen Jan. 4. "We've lost a couple of close ones, but I think we've stolen a couple, too."
Clark had 22 points and Martin had 10 for the Flashes, who host Jacksonville Eagle's View Jan. 5. Both Clark and Martin made the all-tournament team.
"All in all, it was a good tournament for us," Esguerra said. "We played some quality teams and played well. Unfortunately against Pedro (Menendez), they hit shots and we didn't."

Toxic Treasure Coast water: Possible Lake Okeechobee discharges bring protests
STUART, Fla. - People are gathered Thursday morning at the St. Lucie Locks in Stuart to protest against possible water releases from Lake Okeechobee.
The protesters are from several community groups calling for the water to be discharged away from the Treasure Coast.
The Army Corps of Engineers said Thursday morning it hasn't decided yet on whether it will release water from the lake.
With water levels rising and more rain on the way, engineers are concerned about the dykes that surround Lake Okeechobee.
Previous water discharges have been blamed for poisoning Treasure Coast waterways by bringing in toxins it picks up along the way to the ocean.
Along with the decision to potentially release the water, the Army Corps of Engineers said no decision has been made on where the water would be released too or how much of it would be released.

When hanging a horseshoe some people believe that the ends should point up, and some believe that they should point down.
For those that follow the up pointing tradition the belief is that if the direction were reversed all the luck would fall out and drain away.
For those that believe in the down pointing tradition the belief is that all the good luck will continually rain down on those that pass beneath it, and fill the home with good luck.
Many simply enjoy the added charm of hanging a horseshoe over a door regardless of its orientation.

Work & Family Mailbox
Sue Shellenbarger answers readers' questions
Q:When I extend my hand for a traditional handshake, the other man sometimes wraps his hand around mine, covering it with his fingers rather than gripping it firmly. I find this demeaning. —D.L., Chatham, N.Y.
A: Covering your entire hand may be a misguided attempt by the other person to convey warmth and caring, says Daniel Post Senning, an author and spokesman for the Emily Post Institute in Burlington, Vt. He may not realize that many people resent that kind of grasp as "controlling and dominating," he says. You mention elsewhere in your email that you are 68 years old; another possible explanation is that the other person may "not want to be too pushy," Mr. Senning says. Or perhaps he lacks confidence, or is timid about making physical contact.
Try to head off the hand-grab by "modeling the behavior you'd like to see," Mr. Senning says. Take control by extending your hand to intercept the other person's in a firm traditional handshake; assert yourself by standing straight, looking him in the eye, smiling and saying his name. If that doesn't work, try laughing and making a humorous comment about the other person's off-center grasp, saying, "Oh, I missed you with that. Let's try that again," he says. If that fails, consider talking with the offender later, explaining without blaming or criticizing him how the oddball handshake makes you feel.

I'm going to be moving my current blog to a new domain (same host and same database), and I'm wondering if there are going to be any hiccups. I haven't really dug into the wordpress code much, but it seems to me that if I just install like normal and input my current DB details into the wp-config file, everything will be fine.
I do worry, however, that this will overwrite something important and it will be a pain getting my posts back.
Has anyone done this, and should I watch out for anything in particular? Or, are there completely different steps I need to take to get my blog moved?

PICTURES: Activists Scale London's Tallest Building To Protest Arctic Drilling
The activists, who Greenpeace identified as Sabine, Sandra, Victo, Ali, Wiola and Liesbeth, picked the building — named The Shard — because it is "modelled on a shard of ice" and "sits slap bang in the middle of Shell's three London headquarters." They started their "ice climb" at 4:00 am London time, and plan to "unveil a massive art installation at the top."
At time of publishing, the climbers had reached 230 meters on their 72-story journey. You can watch a live feed of the climb here.
Shell is an obvious target for an anti-arctic drilling action. The company has been dedicated to arctic drilling, despite several failed attempts over the last year, including when an oil rig ran aground thanks to the company's tax avoidance scheme.
Around 7:10 pm UK time, the climbers reached the top of the Shard. They were promptly taken into police custody:
6 Responses to PICTURES: Activists Scale London's Tallest Building To Protest Arctic Drilling
Good for them! I hope they drop thousands of leaflets, too, detailing Shell's long history of criminal behavior.
Hope they do it safely.
If they transported that gear there in a vehicle of some sort, it was all for nothing.
It's OK to ruin the Arctic but a crime to climb a building – what a ridiculous world, ME

Murkowski Has Slim Lead in Alaska
ANCHORAGE, Alaska—The winner of Alaska's Senate race might not be known for weeks, as election officials wrestle with complications created by incumbent Lisa Murkowski's write-in effort as well as thousands of absentee ballots, but with more than half of the state's precincts counted Tuesday night, Ms. Murkowski appeared to have close to a five-point lead.
Alaska voters chose among Ms. Murkowski, tea-party favorite and Republican nominee Joe Miller, and Democrat Scott McAdams, a little-known former mayor. In addition to those votes and others cast early, there are at least 20,000 absentee ballots that won't be counted Tuesday night.
To vote for Ms. Murkowski, Alaskans had to darken a bubble on the ballot and write her name on a line -- a considerable hurdle for the candidate. The last time a senator won a write-in bid was when Strom Thurmond won his seat in 1954.
But in early counting, it appeared that Ms. Murkowski had a lead. Late Tuesday night, with more than half of precincts counted, write-ins were ahead with 39.2% of the vote, followed by Mr. Miller with 35.5%. Mr. McAdams was in third place with 24.3% of the vote. Though the names on write-in ballots won't be tallied for weeks, Ms. Murkowski's name is expected to be on the vast majority of them. For the sake of comparison, fewer than 1% of ballots were cast for write-in candidates in the last two Senate races in Alaska.
"You can't say that it's over, but it sure looks like it's headed in that direction," said longtime Alaska pollster Dave Dittman. "She's probably pretty pleased." Mr. Dittman pointed out that ballots from Alaska's rural regions are the latest to be counted. Ms. Murkowski has strong support among rural Alaskans, which means her lead could grow as the night goes on.
On Tuesday night, election officials were tallying the number of votes for Mr. Miller and Mr. McAdams, and the number of voters who indicated a write-in choice. If the number of votes with the write-in bubble filled far exceeds those for another candidate, Ms. Murkowski could become the apparent winner Tuesday night. Still, the result won't be known for certain until election officials wait for laggard absentee ballots to arrive and be counted, which will take another two weeks. Then they will move beyond counting bubbles to actually tallying the names written in next to them.

Any name-counting wouldn't start until Nov. 18, and the election wouldn't be certified until around Nov. 29. Only at that point could a candidate contest the results in court, said Gail Fenumiai, director of the state Division of Elections.
"I have no idea" when the results will be known, Ms. Fenumiai said. "Tonight might be a good indication" of whether write-in votes could represent a serious challenge to a candidate on the ballot, she added, but "the public just needs to know that there are going to be tens of thousands of ballots waiting to be counted after [Tuesday]."
The next question: Will voters spell Ms. Murkowski's name correctly, or close enough to be counted?
Doug Clinger, a 48-year-old fisherman who voted for Ms. Murkowski, said the process was straightforward, but when asked by a reporter how to spell Ms. Murkowski's name, he said, "M-U-R-K-O-K-S-K-I."
Luckily for Mr. Clinger, the Division of Elections has said minor misspellings of Ms. Murkowski's last name will probably still be counted in her favor. Meanwhile, Michael McCarter, a 45-year-old environmental consultant, wore a wristband with Ms. Murkowski's name—provided by her campaign—to the Anchorage church where he voted, "to make sure I could spell it." He said he chose Ms. Murkowski because she seems "trustworthy." Deanne O'Brien, a teacher's assistant, kept a Post-It note with the candidate's name in her pocket.
The race has been one of the most closely watched of the battles nationwide between incumbents and tea-party rivals ever since Mr. Miller's surprise victory over Ms. Murkowski in the GOP primary in August.
A win by Mr. Miller, who was supported by tea-party contributors and former Gov. Sarah Palin, would bolster the tea-party movement's credibility and Ms. Palin's standing as a political kingmaker. In recent polls, Mr. Miller and Ms. Murkowski were neck-and-neck, with Mr. McAdams in a distant third place, but Alaska polls have proven unreliable in past elections, and the write-in factor further complicates matters.
Mr. Miller's tea-party credentials appealed to Alaskans like Joan Morgan, a 64-year-old retiree, who said she voted for Mr. Miller because she felt loyal toward him after he won the Republican primary and was disappointed that Ms. Murkowski re-entered the race.

For many years, we have promoted our sustainable drip irrigation solutions under the heading Grow More with Less. However, our deepening experience and involvement in global sustainable development policy, particularly our work with the UN Global Compact and CEO Water Mandate, has taught us that drip irrigation has a much wider role to play.
Drip irrigation is one of the few solutions whose core proposition addresses three global sustainability challenges – food security, water conservation, and arable land optimization. Operating at the meeting point, or nexus, of these challenges, drip impacts on our society and our
planet by increasing crop yields while using less water with the same amount of land. That's why our overarching mission and strategy of advancing mass adoption of drip irrigation by focusing on basic commodity food crops is our most critical future objective.
Sustainability has been part of Netafim's essence since our establishment 50 years ago, and also is the key to our future. In recognition of our contribution to sustainable water management, Netafim was named 2013 Stockholm Industry Water Award (SIWA) Laureate. One of the world's most important water industry awards, SIWA is testimony to our efforts of helping the world grow more with less.
By driving mass adoption of drip, which is at the heart of the food, water and land nexus, we are confident of ensuring a sustainable future for growers of all sizes, and for making the world a better place.
The Netafim 2013 Sustainability Report highlights some of the progress we've made in contributing to global sustainable agriculture over the past two years. I greatly appreciate your interest in our efforts, and welcome your feedback.

Policy Focus 146
Patrick Clawson and Simon Henderson
July 2016
Thanks to technical innovation, and despite oil price fluctuations, the United States is producing more of its own oil and using relatively less. With this decreased dependence on imported energy, the grave danger is that perceived U.S. indifference to Middle East developments could worry allies and embolden hostile forces. In Energizing Policy: America and the Middle East in an Era of Plentiful Oil, Patrick Clawson and Simon Henderson contend that many reasons besides energy argue for a strong U...

Oil Rises on Greek Debt Swap Participation
Oil rose from a two-week low as more investors signed on to a Greek debt swap, reducing concern that the country will default and bolstering optimism that the European economy will rebound.
Futures climbed 1.4 percent after investors with holdings amounting to 58 percent of the Greek bonds eligible for the nation's debt swap agreed to participate. An Energy Department report showed that U.S. crude supplies increased last week while stockpiles of gasoline, diesel and heating oil fell.
"Markets are creeping higher because it looks like Greece is at the threshold of a debt deal," said John Kilduff, a partner at Again Capital LLC, a New York-based hedge fund that focuses on energy. "A Greek default would have been an incredibly disruptive event. We're now seeing a rebound in sentiment and hopes that the economy will grow going forward."
Crude oil for April delivery rose $1.46 to settle at $106.16 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Prices are up 7.4 percent this year.
Brent oil for April settlement increased $2.14, or 1.8 percent, to end the session at $124.12 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange. The European benchmark contract's premium to New York-traded West Texas intermediate oil widened to $17.96, the most since Feb. 10. The spread reached a record $27.88 on Oct. 14.
The European sovereign debt crisis that began in Greece and then moved to Ireland, Portugal, Italy and Spain has reduced economic growth.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was up 0.8 percent at 3:38 p.m. in New York. The euro gained 0.3 percent against the dollar. A stronger common currency and weaker dollar bolster the appeal of raw materials as an investment alternative.
Employment Growth
Companies in the U.S. added 216,000 workers to their payrolls in February, according to data today from Roseland, New Jersey-based ADP Employer Services. The median projection of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News called for an increase of 215,000. ADP reported a revised 173,000 increase in January.
U.S. employers are poised to boost jobs as confidence in the economy climbed to the highest level in a year, a quarterly survey of chief financial officers showed today. A gauge of executives' optimism in the world's largest economy rose to 59.2 from January through March from 53.3 the prior period, according to a report issued today by Duke University/CFO Magazine.
The U.S. was the world's biggest oil-consuming country in 2010, responsible for 21 percent of global oil use, according to BP Plc's Statistical Review of World Energy, released on June 8. The European Union's 27 members accounted for 16 percent of world demand in 2010, BP figures show.
"The global economy is still at risk," said David McAlvany, chief executive officer of McAlvany Financial Group in Durango, Colorado. "The market is sensitive to any external catalyst at this point."
U.S. Stockpiles
Crude supplies climbed 832,000 barrels to 345.7 million barrels last week, the highest level since September, the Energy Department report showed. Stockpiles at Cushing, Oklahoma, the delivery point for New York-traded futures, climbed 2.37 million barrels to 36.2 million, the biggest gain since December 2009.
Gasoline inventories fell 396,000 barrels to 229.5 million last week, the Energy Department said. Supplies of distillate fuel, a category that includes heating oil and diesel, decreased 1.94 million barrels to 139.5 million.
"The statistics today were bearish on the face of it, especially the big build at Cushing," said Addison Armstrong, director of market research at Tradition Energy in Stamford, Connecticut. "Supplies didn't rise as much as expected nationwide though, and demand for crude and fuel remains poor."
Total fuel demand fell an average 78,000 barrels a day to 18.2 million last week, the report showed. Consumption was down 7.6 percent from the same week a year earlier.
Iranian Tension
Oil has climbed this year on concern U.S. and European sanctions aimed at stopping Iran's nuclear program will lead to military conflict. The European Union yesterday offered to negotiate with Iran on behalf of China, France, Germany, Russia, the U.K. and the U.S., after President Barack Obama called for more time to let diplomacy and sanctions solve the standoff.
Sanctions may be cutting Iranian oil exports as vessels cancel trips to the country. Shipments have declined by 300,000 to 400,000 barrels a day because of the restrictions, Amrita Sen, an analyst at Barclays Capital in London, said today by e-mail. Half of the tankers booked to load at the country's largest terminal last month didn't complete the voyages, according to brokers, company officials and ship-tracking data.
"The market has been supported by a fear premium," said Todd Horwitz, chief strategist at Adam Mesh Trading Group in New York. "Once the situation calms down and the fear is alleviated, prices will drop below $100."
Electronic trading volume on the Nymex was 719,490 contracts as of 3:39 p.m. in New York. Volume totaled 737,533 contracts yesterday, 19 percent above the three-month average. Open interest was 1.58 million, the highest level since June 14.

Hello all. I'm a Mac user trying to migrate my TypePad blog to WordPress. I've read a lot of the how-to guides on this but they aren't resolving my problem. Please help!
In short, I used the importer in WP 2.7 to import my posts, but they don't appear anywhere on my WP site.
In long, here's what I did:
1) Used TypePad's Export function to move the posts to my hard drive. It created as a file called download-export.htm. Curiously, none of my permalinks or any URLs were in this file. Tried this several times with the same result.
2) Coverted this file to text by saving that doc as a text file, cutting and pasting it to TextEdit, and saved that file using Format < Make Plain Text. I gave this file the name "mt-export.txt".
3) FTPd the mt-export.txt to my wp-content folder.
4) At WordPress, under Tools, I followed the procedure to import the mt-export.txt folder. I mapped to the existing author.
5) Damn! No new posts or comments or anything appear on my site. It's as if I'd never done anything at all.
If it helps, the typepad site I'm importing from is here:
And the site I'm importing to is here (it's just a messy placeholder):
What am I doing wrong? I'll try anything!

Make sure you get a confirmation before arriving. Booked a room for Saturday, 21 August but reservationist got mixed up and booked us for Friday, 20 August.
If Hidden Valley Resort's treatment of guests in distress is any measure of its future survivability, it will not be around much longer, esp given the competition in the area.
Made Saturday, 21 Aug reservation by phone with credit card deposit but did not get email confirmation. Phoned a day later and re-requested email confirmation but still did not receive it. Upon arrival, learned that reservationist mistakenly booked us for Friday, 20 Aug in spite of confirming by phone – twice – before arrival that booking was Saturday. I wasn't too uptight about not getting an email confirmation since this was rural Penn and these folks usually really go out of their way to take care of visitors, taking pride that you are visiting their cherished part of the US. Nevertheless, all rooms were booked Saturday, leaving us to find another accommodation at 8 pm on a busy Saturday night in an unfamiliar area. HV Resort also did not know the status was with all its rooms: front desk clerk mentioned that she had a room where a guest was supposed to have checked-out but their belongings were still in the room - at 8 pm! Clerk refused to vacate the room for us in spite of our need and the guest having gone way past their check-out time. The clerk mentioned alternatives in the area but did not phone on our behalf. Instead, she watched us phone from the lobby. We ended up booking a room at a more expensive resort 20 min away. HV Resort refunded us the deposit later with an apology but would not accommodate our request to be comp-ed for a future visit or pay the difference between resorts for the lost time and inconvenience. I phoned the HVR reservation manager Monday. He claimed not to be empowered to offer any future comp room or to fund the difference. He deferred instead to another senior manager who did not make time for him all week. When I suggested to the reservation manager that I would post here about my experience, he seemed fine with it.

History A Little Test
posted by March 14 at 12:01 PMon
Here's how you can tell if you're with the right person. This is Toba:
It's a very large volcanic caldera on Sumatra Island, Indonesia. How big? For reference I've placed a dot on the middle of the island, which is in the middle of the caldera. The dot is the size of Crater Lake. Toba blew its stack some time between 65 and 75 thousand years ago, in the largest eruption seen anywhere on Earth in the last 25 million years. The eruption was so large that it dropped 6+ inches of ash over the entire Indian Subcontinent.
There's a theory that this was very, very Bad News for humanity. The theory says that as a result of the environmental carnage wrought by the eruption, we were reduced as a species to somewhere between 10,000 and 1,000 breeding pairs.
Think about that for a minute. Fewer peopleon the whole planetthan currently live in scenic Issaquah, WA ("home of the Issaquah Alpsdon't miss Salmon Days 2008!") Just scattered bands all over the globe, starving to death, hoping the clouds clear and the plants bloom again before the very last members of the tribe die.
Here's where the test comes in: tell all this to your partner. If they just give you a blank stare, or an uninspired "huh"well, fine. Perhaps they've had a very tough day or have pressing affairs of the day on their mind.
What you want is the partner who goes, "Holy shit! We're so lucky! This really makes you realize how precious life is!" Take this person and fuck their brains out right that very minute- don't wait for the end of the day, or the TV show to end, or anything. And then hold them for while. And then take a vacation that you can't really afford to some place really amazing where you've never been before.
But… what if they come back with the dreaded "well, it would probably have been better for the planet if we would have died out?" Give a non-committal "huh," leave the room, set any cell phones and/or car keys on the nearest flat surface, and flee the residence. Don't stop until you're on a bus bound for Tucson, paid for with cash. (Not valid if you started in Tucsonin that case, choose some place else where the winters are warm and the stars are visible most nights.) Change your hair color and clothing styles. Burn all forms of identification and never answer a phone, or a hail to your given name, ever again.

Bacteriological Studies in Scarlatinal Angina.
—Wurtz and Burges (Arch. de Med. Exp., May, 1890) have recently made some observations in this line that are of some practical importance. A few cases of scarlatina, in the Trousseau Hospital, were transferred to the pavilion for diphtheritics because of early development of false membrane in the throat. The bacteriological examination in all these cases revealed the streptococcus pyogenes, in a pure state, or associated with other microbes of suppuration. In none of the cases with early developing membrane did the authors find the bacillus of Klebs—Löffler. In two cases of angina with late developing membrane the specific bacillus was found to be present. One of these children that early presented the streptococcus pyogenes was undoubtedly secondarily infected in the pavilion for diphtheritics, to which it had been transferred.The authors come to the conclusion, that the precocious angina of scarlatina is not,

Commissioners Shakespeare and Botero
During the commission's regular meeting this past January 25, Miami-Dade Commissioner Dorrin Rolle didn't care much about a possible $16 million interest-ree loan to help defray the Carnival Center's construction costs.
No, Rolle had a bigger bone to pick with the center's chief executive Michael Hardy. There were no English speaking performers on opening night.
"I don't know if they were singing about me, for me, or what," Rolle complained. "I just wanted to make sure ... you follow me, and county commissioners are invited... that somebody does some due diligence in singing some songs that a lot of us can understand. I know I am not the only one who doesn't speak Spanish."
Rolle's comments spurred colleague Javier Souto's rambling soliloquy on Celia Cruz; art's ability to soothe the human soul; and the slow speed of democracy. Here is a verbatim transcript of Souto's speech: "Commissioner Rolle this is for you. I think you are right. I was at the inauguration. We missed Celia Cruz. You know if she was there, you know, she was black and Cuban and sang in English and Spanish. Celia, God bless you... Let me tell you what happened to me the other day. [Park and Recreation Department executive assistant Frank] Faragalli and I went to Medellin, Colombia. Medellin! You hear about Medellin and you hear about bums and things. On a park mission we went there[stet]. Well let me tell you, that is the place of Botero. You know the guy Botero? People in Medellin told me when you pump art into the people, violence diminishes. It behooves us to pump a lot of art, a lot of performing arts center stuff, a lot of museums -- Is [Cultural Affairs Department director] Michael Spring here? -- a lot of all that stuff [stet] because it will diminish violence. Do we have violence here? Of course we have violence. We have a lot of violence in this town. You know that. We need to reduce that...The process is very slow. So be it. It is the democratic process. If not, let's go into communism, into Hitler, into something else. Those are very quick. Stalin was very quick. Hitler was very quick. Chavez in Venezuela was very quick. Castro in Cuba was very quick. They just do things quickly. That's it, you know. There is no democracy there."

Hedge Fund Ponzi Schemer Has Surprisingly Lowbrow Appetites
$4 million and he went to Atlantic City?
Fugitive hedge-fund manager Brian Kim, the 35-year-old founder of Liquid Capital Management, is thought to be on the lam in Italy to avoid charges for running a $4 million Ponzi scheme. But while Kim, who leveraged two CNBC appearances to bilk gullible investors, was still living in his East Village high-rise, what he chose to do with those ill-gotten gains was surprisingly pedestrian. According to the New York Post, he "allegedly used some of the purloined loot to finance luxury shopping sprees to Barneys New York and Coach and to fuel gambling runs to Atlantic City and ski trips to Vermont." Atlantic City and Vermont? If he were a real "mini-Madoff" like the paper says, that should be Vegas and Aspen. Next you'll be telling us he took the senior bus to AC for the free drinks and complimentary show tickets. We're just saying, instead of checking Italy, the police might want to station someone at the Air Supply show at Ballys on Saturday.

Cortland's Senior Center uses taxpayer money ... but don't ask how they spend your levy dollars.
By ED RUNYAN
Cyndie Hammers says she loves the Cortland SCOPE senior citizen center, where she enjoys billiards, dancing and informational sessions.
But the center's move to a larger location on North Bank Street about two years ago presented some challenges. The new facility had only one restroom, and it was not handicap-accessible.
"A large percentage of people need that accessibility," said Hammers, 61, of Southington, contending that there have been times when seniors have failed to make it to the restroom in time, resulting in an embarrassing "accident."
Hammers and other seniors raised questions about the restroom to the Cortland center's manager, but it "fell on deaf ears," she said.
Hammers, who was the elected fiscal officer for Union Township near New Castle, Pa., 20 years ago, wrote a letter Jan. 19 to SCOPE, asking for financial information about SCOPE and minutes of recent meetings.
SCOPE receives on average about $700,000 per year from the Trumbull County Seniors levy. Those tax funds, depending on the year, can constitute half of SCOPE's annual spending. Add to that SCOPE's income from state and federal agencies, and SCOPE receives about $1.3 million per year from taxpayers.
On Jan. 30, having not yet heard back, Hammers and five other seniors went to the SCOPE board meeting at the Warren SCOPE center.
They were denied entry.
No meeting access. No financial access. No meeting minutes.
What they did get was a two-hour meeting with SCOPE's executive director, Janet Schweitzer.
But Hammers said that wasn't enough for an agency that receives a third of the $2.3 million the senior levy generates each year from Trumbull taxpayers. Since 2007, SCOPE has received $2.7 million from that levy — all out of public purview, except for the scant nonprofit Form 990s the federal government requires.
Get used to it.
SCOPE, which has existed for 50 years, is officially a private, nonprofit corporation and, therefore, exempt from the public-meetings law.
The idea that private corporations should control significant amounts of taxpayer money is growing under Gov. John Kasich, a former Wall Street executive.
Kasich and the Ohio Legislature last year created the nonprofit corporation JobsOhio to take over some functions of the Ohio Department of Development. JobsOhio will use about $800 million in annual state liquor profits to fund its operations.
"We were definitely surprised," Hammers said of SCOPE's unwillingness to allow public access.
"As SCOPE members, we felt we had a right to voice our complaints."
Hammers said she never imagined SCOPE wouldn't have to tell the public how it spends that money.
At that January meeting, Hammers and her group of six seniors waited in the lobby for an hour while the 18-member SCOPE board had its meeting.
Afterward, Schweitzer talked with Hammer's group for two hours. The board members had left the building.
A month later, at a combined 50th anniversary celebration and board meeting, Hammers and other seniors showed up again. This time, James McFarland, a board member, invited the group to talk to him and about six other board members.
Board member Garland Bradshaw, in a phone interview, said he and Schweitzer asked the board during the January meeting whether it wanted to allow Hammers and the group into the meeting. The board decided against it because the group had not asked in advance to address the board, Bradshaw said, and the board had a legal opinion regarding SCOPE's being exempt from the public-meetings law.
David Marburger, an Ohio attorney specializing in public records who also represents The Vindicator, said Ohio Supreme Court decisions since 2005 have allowed SCOPE and other private, nonprofit organizations, such as private prisons, to operate with less oversight than government bodies, which reduces accountability to the public.
Organizations such as SCOPE exist primarily to provide services that the government wants to provide, but the employees providing them are not government employees, Marburger said. That typically reduces the cost of providing the services.
But it also reduces public knowledge.
"The nonprofits have only a fraction of the accountability the government would have if it were providing the services," Marburger said.
In the weeks since the meeting, Schweitzer had SCOPE maintenance workers upgrade an unused toilet in another part of the Cortland building. Now there are two restrooms. But Hammers said that doesn't solve the handicap-accessibility issue.
Just as important, Hammers said the episode leaves her feeling like SCOPE lacks accountability.
"I don't know if [Schweitzer] tells the board what is going on. I don't know if she tells them anything," Hammers said.
It would make sense for a member of each of SCOPE's six senior centers to be appointed to attend each SCOPE board meeting, Hammers said.
"I explained to [Hammers] that the SCOPE board hires a staff to carry out policy-making issues," Schweitzer said. Among the staff are Schweitzer and directors at each SCOPE center.
Atty. Frank Bodor, a legal adviser to SCOPE, said that SCOPE's board of directors are all volunteers, so an attempt is made to keep meetings short.
"If you open your meetings to the public, your agenda of an hour, hour and a half becomes convoluted to all afternoon. It's not like a county commissioners meeting. It's run like a corporation."
All three county commissioners — Paul Heltzel, Dan Polivka and Frank Fuda — said they found SCOPE's closed-access surprising.
"Just because of the nature of the business, I think it behooves them to allow access to their board members," said Heltzel. "It's not black ops, so I don't know why they would want to limit that."
Heltzel said SCOPE could limit the amount of time the public speaks to the board, like various governmental bodies do.
"I think they need to have total transparency," agreed Polivka. "I don't know why they wouldn't allow them to attend meetings when SCOPE receives a good chunk of the seniors levy money."
Diane Drawl, the administrator who oversees the Trumbull County senior citizen levy, said SCOPE has been paid $2,761,702 in seniors levy money since April 2007, the first year of levy payouts.
SCOPE was awarded $798,288 in levy dollars for the most recent year.
Jeff Hovanic, a SCOPE board member and Champion Township trustee, said he believes SCOPE's board should meet with the public, but requests of that type have been rare in his years on the board.
"I have no reason to have any opposition to it, personally. But that is a board, and I can't speak for the board," Hovanic said.
He added that when Hammers and the others came to the board meeting in January, "the board didn't know what to do. The board had no problem with meeting with them, but they were not on the agenda."
Schweitzer said SCOPE is audited by various government agencies that provide SCOPE's revenue, such as the Ohio Department of Aging, U.S. Administration on Aging, and Drawl for the seniors levy.
Drawl, however, said she had a particular problem with SCOPE last year after SCOPE experienced a reduction in one of the programs it was running for senior citizens. The program was homemaker services, which includes housekeeping and personal-care assistance for senior citizens.
Easter Seals of Youngs-town and Comfort Keepers of Warren were awarded part of the care contract SCOPE had the year before. Drawl asked SCOPE to provide the names, phone numbers and addresses of the clients SCOPE was losing so they could be notified of their new service provider. SCOPE refused, saying that giving that information would violate the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.
Drawl disagrees that giving names, addresses and phone numbers would be a HIPPA violation.
When Comfort Keepers was in the same situation two years ago, Comfort Keepers turned over its names to SCOPE, Drawl said. The result of SCOPE not turning over the names was that some clients were unable to keep getting the service, Drawl added.
Schweitzer said SCOPE did what it was supposed to — it notified its former clients that they had been switched to another provider.
SCOPE was in hot water with the county commissioners in 2009 after the previous levy administrator, Niles-based Area Agency on Aging 11, said SCOPE had overbilled the senior levy fund for a variety of services.
Two such overbillings were for senior-citizen golf and line dancing, charging $33 per hour to the levy fund for activities that should have cost about $9 per hour, Area Agency on Aging said.
The commissioners eventually required SCOPE to repay $90,000 that they said was overbilled. In a letter to SCOPE in February 2009, commissioners said SCOPE had to repay the money because SCOPE "elected to spend its earmarked funds within its own interpretation" of its contract.
SCOPE has refused to turn over financial information to Hammers or The Vindicator. But SCOPE is required by federal law to file a Form 990 tax return. Though that document is a public record, it is far less detailed than an actual budget.
SCOPE's 990 forms say the organization had revenue and expenses of between $1.7 million and $2.4 million per year between 2008 and 2010. SCOPE has been awarded about $700,000 per year from the seniors levy since 2007, the first year of the levy, county records show.
SCOPE reported expenses of $87,451 in 2009 and $41,562 in 2010 under the category "Conferences, conventions and meetings."
Kim Haase, grants and contracts coordinator for SCOPE, said that category is misleading. It doesn't indicate that SCOPE officers are spending that kind of money on conferences or conventions in far-off places. Instead, that line is used to show the compensation SCOPE employees are paid to travel to homes to provide home care.
It also is used to show expenses incurred while operating SCOPE's three wheelchair-equipped vans to drive clients to and from Christ Episcopal Church in Warren for adult day care, Haase said.
Schweitzer's salary in 2009 was listed at $46,301. For 2010, it was $37,528, according to the Form 990.
No salary is listed for any other SCOPE officers. SCOPE lists "other salaries and wages" for 112 employees of about $1.1 million in 2009 and 2010.
This is why the Govt. should not be involved in giving money to anybody. Where ever there is Govt. money there are people to steal it.
This is exactly the lack of transparency that the taxpayers will get with most charter schools as well. If they are run by a management company like "White Hat" or something similar, the public has no right to see how they spend taxpayer dollars. Yet, many tea party republicans support charter schools under the charade of "school choice". Go figure.
All federal, state and local tax money should be accounted for no matter who spends the funds.
And we learn again why the United Way was created in the first place all those many years ago.
The administrative oversight provided by the United Way would have prevented these series of problems from Day #1.
The capitalist, Republican way: "you pay for it, and we"ll worry how it's spent. Don't ask, it's none of your bees wax." It's called NO ACCOUNTABILITY!!!!!. hum....... wonder why Republican distrust is on the rise in the goood ol USA!!!!!
The AAA11 our local office that is paid also by our hard earned dollars is suppose to be overseeing the money that they dole out to service agencies. They control who gets your state dollars for seniors! So where are they ? If they knew in 2009 money was being miss spent why are they still giving money to them?????
Where are the usual conservative partisans who hate waste in government spending? Why are they okay with his? Carlstaatz, Stan, where are you guys?
Do not blame the AAA11. They were hired by the commissioners to oversee the program. It was the commissioners who chose to overlook the abuse and give more funds to SCOPE. That is why the AAA11 resigned from the oversight of the program. It appears that Diane Drawl is having the same problem. It is time for the commissioners to step up to the plate and stop the funding of an agency who is not complying with the rules that they agreed to in their contract with the commissioners
To: Gov. Kasich,
I will NEVER vote for another levy that has anything to do with SCOPE after reading this excellent article. In fact, I will do everything I can to make sure that ANY levy similar to this one is never passed. Gov. Kasich, PLEASE have OUR Ohio Attorney General look into the Ohio Supreme Court ruling that private nonprofit organizations do not have to hold public meeting and do not have to disclose HOW OUR TAX DOLLARS WERE SPENT! This same holds true for WRAP in Warren. To the Trumbull County Commissioners: DO NOT GIVE ANOTHER PENNY of "OUR" TAX DOLLARS TO SCOPE OR ANY OTHER PRIVATE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION! REALLY COMMISSIONERS, YOU DID NOT KNOW! The Ohio Supreme Court Rulings need to be challenged again. EVEN MORE IMPORTANT, OHIO LAW MUST BE CHANGED IMMEDIATELY! PLEASE, GOV. KASICH, MAKE THIS REQUEST HAPPEN IMMEDIATELY SO I CAN ONCE AGAIN VOTE FOR LEVIES I FEEL ARE RIGHT FOR US. ANY PRIVATE NONPROFIT THAT RECIEVES ANY TAX DOLLARS (federal/state/local) MUST MAKE FULL DISCLOSURE OF "ALL" INFORMATION, UPON REQUEST, UNDER THE OHIO AND FEDERAL OPEN RECORDS LAWS. Give our OHIO Supreme Court the opportunity to make the proper call UNDER the law by changing the OHIO law immediately. PLEASE GOV. KASICH, DO THE RIGHT THING IMMEDIATELY! Thank you.
