Contemporary spins on Shakespeare, however up-to-the-minute they may be, are nothing new. But that doesn't mean they can't still be interesting, instructive, and even (or especially) fun.
At the Oregon Shakespeare Festival this summer, "The Very Merry Wives of Windsor, Iowa," by playwright Alison Carey (who also oversees OSF's play-commissioning project "American Revolutions: the United States History Cycle"), turns the comic anti-hero Sir John Falstaff into a modern-day U.S. Senator on the hunt for campaign cash.
The Great River Shakespeare Festival in Winona, MN, is spicing its summer season with the oft-produced mash-up "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)." But it gets into the updating act in a more creative way online, where it has posted a video on "The Real Housewives of Shakespeare."
In the five-minute clip, memorable married women from a handful of Shakespeare plays – Juliet Capulet, Lady Macbeth, Titania (Queen of the Faeries from "A Midsummer Night's Dream"), Goneril (eldest daughter of King Lear) and Gertrude (Hamlet's mom) – are thrown together in a catty dinner party to decide who's the "best in the canon."

Pork Chops or Pork Ribs With Apricot Pineapple Sauce
Total Time
Prep 20 mins
Cook 1 hr
Meat is browned with fat drained. Ribs are cut in 2 or 3 rib pieces The sauce is poured over and the meat is baked . Everything can be made ahead of time, refrigerated and then baked. I like to use pork chops but any type of chop can be used, venison, elk, buffalo or beef round steak cut in serving pieces. Grilled pineapple can be served as a side dish with rice or noodles or mashed potatoes. The recipe started from using pineapple juice thickened with cornstarch and soaked dried apricots; years ago there was not combination preserves to the present recipe posted.Photos show pork chops, steak and maui maui fish. It is delicious with all meats.

Most Helpful
I made this into a stirfry. It was okay. Nothing spectacular. I added curry to it, some garlic and subbed ketchup for bbq sauce. No apricots on hand so they did'n't get added. I like how it's versatile with substitutions. True, I didn't make it exactly, but it wasn't far off. Definately worth a try. It could do without the added salt.
This was really good. I like how the rub carmelized in the pan, making the browning of the meat really fantastic. The baking, helped get those flavors all meshed in together like a marinade. I did not add the onions because I am not a fan of cooked onions, but we did not miss a thing, this was superb.

Robert Bentley good-naturedly entered the "Moon Pie Eatin' Contest" at Tannehill State Park Saturday despite having eaten a late lunch on the campaign trail.
While the Moon Pie gobbling was in good fun, the issues facing the state are serious, Bentley told voters as he greeted them at the Labor Day festivities.
"It's about jobs. The number one issue that we're facing today is our economy," Bentley said.
"Even people who have a job, they are concerned. People who have small businesses, they're concerned. I think there is just an apprehension out there about our economy right now. I think they are looking for leadership not only on the federal level, but on the state level as well," Bentley said.
"Government needs an attitude adjustment," Bentley said.
Targeted tax cuts and incentives can help create jobs, Bentley said.
The Republican candidate for governor began his Labor Day campaigning at Ider's Mule Days in north Alabama before meeting and greeting voters at Tannehill.
While Bentley finished last in the Moon Pie eating, the Republican candidate for governor hopes to finish first in the Nov. 2 election when he faces Democrat Ron Sparks.
"People are tired of government. They are tired of what they are seeing in government. They don't see a lot of response from the federal government or the state as far as concern for the individual working people," Bentley said.

WEBSTER CITY - The No. 8 (Class 2A) St. Edmond baseball team earned a 5-2 victory over Webster City here Wednesday night.
Hank Crimmins had nine strikeouts on the mound, allowing just one earned run. Jason Setterdahl had two RBI and Colin Flattery two hits.
"Hank was able to hit his spots and really get us out of a few jams with his strikeouts," SEHS head coach Joe Shanks said. "Our defense didn't make the routine plays for him, and we need to shore that up."

MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- A Montgomery man was sentenced to two years in federal prison today for his involvement in a stolen identity refund fraud scheme.
Anton Miles had pleaded guilty to one count of theft of government funds on May 9, 2013, according to United States Attorney George L. Beck Jr., and the Internal Revenue Service.
Miles opened a bank account under his name d/b/a A and M Mobile Car Wash in January 2012, according to court documents.
Between January 2012 and March 2013, approximately 120 false federal income tax refunds that claimed approximately $164,526 were directed to defendant's bank account, the U.S. Attorney's Office released. Miles withdrew the fraudulent proceeds deposited into his bank account. The tax refunds were generated through the filing of false tax returns that used stolen identities.

The SEC's complaint charges Wilson and Diversified Group with violations of the registration and antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws, and American Realty with violations of the antifraud and reporting provisions of the federal securities laws. Diversified Group and American Realty have offices at 6022 West Side Saginaw Road in Frankenlust Township and 509 Center Ave. in Bay City.
The SEC is seeking to fine Wilson and bar him from serving as an officer or director of any public company.
In an email to MLive on Wednesday, Nov. 21, Wilson defended his actions and said the federal agency's efforts are misguided.
"The SEC's chosen remedy to mistakes made in the past is to destroy the economic future of these investors. I cannot stress enough that their reaction and remedy is worse than any disease," Wilson said.
"They will take control of these income producing properties and sell them at a fire-sale. This will result in the investors receiving pennies on the dollar. All investors invested for income which they are receiving. If the SEC gets its way they will lose and lose big," he said.
The SEC claims Wilson raised about $6.7 million from 120 investors who bought securities from Diversified Group from September 2009 through October 2012, and used the funds to finance his business of buying, renovating and selling houses in and around Bay City.
The SEC said that while Wilson promised investors that he would invest their money in real estate that would yield returns of 9.9 percent per year, he used most of it to make unsecured loans to his real estate business, which did not generate enough income to repay the investors. Wilson also diverted $582,000 of investor money to pay personal expenses, including $75,000 he used to buy W R Rice Financial, $46,780 he spent on travel, and $35,000 for his wife's business, the SEC alleges.
Wilson said the federal agency's action will force him out of the industry.
"My career in finance is obviously over, the only question is whether investors will be protected when I am pushed out of the door," Wilson said.
The court has granted the SEC's request for an order prohibiting Wilson from altering or destroying documents and an order granting the parties leave to conduct expedited discovery. A hearing on the SEC's motions for an asset freeze and preliminary injunction is scheduled for Dec. 10 at 10 a.m. at the U.S. District courthouse at 1000 Washington Ave. in Bay City.
On Nov. 5, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority issued an order for WR Rice, the financial affiliate of the Diversified Group and American Realty, to temporarily cease-and-desist its operations. The regulatory authority is a Washington, D.C.-based agency that acts as an independent regulator of all securities firms doing business in the United States.
In it's Nov. 15 court filing, the SEC alleges Wilson raised additional funds for his real estate business through stock sales for another of his companies, American Realty Funds Corp., which trades on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol ANFDE. The complaint alleges that there were misrepresentations and omissions in some of the reports the company filed with the SEC, which Wilson signed, including that American Realty has failed to make loan payments and that its purportedly independent directors have undisclosed personal and business relationships with Wilson.
Still, Wilson defends his business and his investors.

U.S. Cyber Command: Organizing for Cyberspace Operations
Opening Statement
Opening Statement of Chairman Ike Skelton
Hearing on U.S. Cyber Command: Organizing for Cyberspace Operations
|September 23, 2010
"Good morning ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to today's hearing on U.S. Cyber Command: Organizing for Cyberspace Operations. We will hear--for the first time in this committee since Cyber Command was established--from General Keith Alexander, the first commander of U.S. Cyber Command. He also continues to serve in his role as the Director of the National Security Agency.
"General Alexander has a long record of service to the nation, and is a genuinely nice person to boot. I think perhaps the most important thing for the American people to learn from this hearing is that they have exactly the right person in charge of this new command. General Alexander is simply the best, though I would note that there are some other generals from his class at West Point who also haven't done too badly. General Alexander, welcome.
"U.S. Cyber Command, or CyberCom, has been tasked with conducting the full range of activities needed for the Department of Defense to operate effectively in cyberspace. Of one thing I am confident, cyberspace will be a big part of the future of warfare. That means we can't afford to get this wrong. The establishment of CyberCom is a critical milestone for this nation's defense.
"Cyberspace is an environment where distinctions and divisions between public and private, government and commercial, military and non-military are blurred. And while there are limits to what we can talk about in this open forum, the importance of this topic requires that we engage in this discussion in a very direct way and include the public.
"The threats facing the nation in cyberspace are daunting, and have been under appreciated until recently. Just within the DOD, there are more than 15,000 different computer networks including seven million computing devices on 4,000 military installations around the world. These information systems face thousands of attacks a day from criminals, terrorist organizations and more than 100 foreign intelligence organizations. DOD recently announced a new cyberstrategy to deal with that burgeoning threat.
"To understand how well prepared the Department of Defense is to handle the magnitude of this threat; we need to ask some fundamental questions. Where are we today with CyberCom? Where do we want to take it in the future? And do we have what we need to get there?
"An additional challenge for this Committee is determining how CyberCom fits into a broader national effort. DOD has traditionally led the way in protecting information systems, so it is natural for CyberCom to play a role beyond just protecting military networks. What that role should be, however, needs careful analysis. We know that as a nation we must do more to improve security in cyberspace and manage risk without choking off creativity and innovation. General, I look forward to hearing your testimony today on how you intend to address these important issues.
"At this time, let me turn to my friend and colleague, the Ranking Member, Mr. McKeon of California.


text: There have been a lot of threads around gun forums about defensive rounds for the .38 snub. I think it's fairly established that there are some reliable expanding rounds available in today's market. But what if... (due to bans, the hp had never been invented, whatever)... you only had non-expanding rounds to choose from for your .38 snub, what would your choice be? Would you go with a wadcutter, semi-wadcutter, or do you think lead ball would be just as good? Or do you think it really wouldn't matter? Interested to hear bullet weights you might prefer as well.

In observance of Arbor Day, Jefferson Parish officials and community volunteers gathered at LaSalle Park in Metairie on Jan. 18 to celebrate new additions to the park's nature preserve. The Oswald-Dubea Arboretum and Nature Center, an 18-acre wooded preserve in the LaSalle Tract, received the additions which included four park benches and 17 trees native to the area.
Volunteers from Jefferson Beautification, Inc., a nonprofit corporation that funds beautification projects for public green spaces throughout Jefferson Parish, organized the Arbor Day celebration as part of an effort to promote the value of trees to the environment.
"Arbor Day brings out the awareness of why trees are important for the community, air quality, and quality of life," JBI Executive Director Beulah Oswald-Soto said.
JBI added the trees and park benches to the arboretum to recognize contributions made by several businesses and individuals. Most of the trees and two of the benches were purchased to memorialize deceased individuals.
Jefferson Parish President John Young attended the Arbor Day celebration to recognize the beautification efforts made to the arboretum and to accept the trees and benches on behalf of Jefferson Parish.
Young said that Arbor Day serves as a reminder of how important trees and the environment are to us.
First observed in Nebraska in 1872, Arbor Day is recognized as a national holiday on the last Friday in April. Each state, however, sets their own date to celebrate it as a state holiday. The third Friday of January is the official Arbor Day holiday in Louisiana.
Planting a tree is the customary way to observe the holiday, and, according to the Arbor Day Foundation's web site, it is estimated that over 1 million trees were planted on the first Arbor Day celebration held on April 10, 1872.
"It's not only planting a tree to remember someone," Young said, "but it's also planting a tree that will be here to be enjoyed by future generations."
The Oswald-Dubea Arboretum and Nature Center earned official recognition from the Louisiana State Legislature in 2004.
Commonly defined as a botanical garden that features trees and woody plants, an arboretum typically serves as a place for environmental conservation and scientific study.
Since 2004, JBI has added a boardwalk through the most heavily wooded area, as well as an agrarian garden where the LSU AgCenter conducts vegetable gardening seminars for school children.
This year's additions honored DM Petroleum Operations Company, Joy Shane, and the Whitney Heights Garden Club.
Benches memorialized Audrey P. Kachler and Alvin and Virginia Solari.
Trees were planted in memory of Gerald F. Burnsed, Allan Dubea, Robert Ferguson Favret, Sr., Anthony Golemi, Jr., Donald Grace, Audrey P. Kachler, Harry McFadden, Ronald J. Muller, Alice Poissenot, George Schott, Bryan Gerard Woodward, and M.Q. "Buddy" Woodward, III.

Wow, what an amazing week! I truly can't remember the last
time I was this content in July with the weather and the condition of the crops
at the same time. I have taken several drives this week in and out of Johnson
County, and Indiana is a beautiful place. The crops, yards and flowers are just
thriving this year. The skies are a bright blue with white, fluffy clouds and
shades of green for as far as the eye can see — such a huge difference from the
way the state looked last year at this time.
Lots of roadside mowing going on this week around the
county, something we have been doing and needed to do a lot more this year with
the way everything is growing. Still hauling liquid manure cleaning out the hog
barn pits, as well as working on other projects around the farm. Hard to believe
it is time to start thinking about getting things ready for harvest, but it is.
We are replacing our semi scales, so currently that is a high priority to get
finished. Have seen some crop dusting in the area. They never cease to amaze me,
no matter how many times I see them. I always stop what I am doing to watch.
Many hay producers are well into their second cutting. Some even
Last week during our fair, there was some talk of corn
starting to roll, but the rain and cooler temperatures have definitely put a
stop to that. We started the week with a very local 1.5-inch rain — two miles
north or south didn't get that much — and ended Saturday with a half-inch pretty
widespread rain.

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- North Alabama's hopes for an NCAA Division II tournament invitation took a staggering blow Friday night.
The Lions, ranked No. 7 in an extremely fluid South Division, fell to West Florida 82-78 in the Gulf South Conference tournament quarterfinals. West Florida advances to the semifinals Saturday at 7:30 against Christian Brothers.
While UAHuntsville is a lock for one of the eight region spots, as is SIAC champ Benedict, the strength and balance of teams in the Sunshine State Conference made it a matter of great conjecture this week whether the GSC would have two or three representatives. Christian Brothers will all but sew up a spot by winning Saturday.
"I have absolutely no idea," Champagne said. "Last year, West Florida was sitting in the same spot we were and won this game and they didn't make it. I haven't been to Vegas in a while but I'd say our NCAA hopes slipped away tonight.
"Over the course of the season, we were one of the top eight teams in the region, but it's a numbers game," Champagne continued. "The numbers may not be in our favor."
Other numbers not in UNA's favor: A 3-5 finish en route to its 19-8 record.
"As well as we've played all year, I feel like we should be in," said guard Wes Long. "We just slipped at the wrong time. We were in and out of the top 25 all year and I think we're one of the best teams in the country, at least the top 25. Did we show it every night? No. If we can get in, maybe we can learn from this."
"What do you tell the guys (if UNA isn't invited)?" Champagne said. "That you had a bad season? No. (They were) 19-8, third in the league and these guys fought all year. The fans were great all year. It's tough. A tough, tough, tough deal."
Marquel Darrington finished with 24 points, Long scored 16 and Bruce Adams had 15 points and nine rebounds while playing only 25 minutes because of foul problems.
There were also foul-shooting problems. The Lions hit only 14-of-29 free throws; UNA hit 73.4 percent on the season, second-best in the GSC.
West Florida (13-14) was led by Peter Connole with 26 points, including 6-for-7 on 3-pointers; he averaged only 8.1 points on the season. Ellis Young added 19, Nate Johnson 10.
UNA was somewhat sluggish in the first half and hurt itself some with shot selection, going into halftime trailing 41-30. However, UNA had trailed seven times at the half this season only to rally to win.
"We felt like we've been in games like this all year," Long said.
The Lions crept back and at 3:33 of the second Long nailed a three to cut the lead to 72-63. Adams followed with a dunk after a West Florida turnover and after an Argonauts free throw Long hit another 3 at 2:09. When Rashaun Claiborne made a steal and layup, it was 73-70 at the two-minute mark and drama set in.
Long missed at 3 at 1:25 that led to a West Florida dunk on the other end and a six-point lead, but it was a game to be decided on the foul line.
The teams were a combined 5-for-12 on free throws in the final white-knuckle 2:36 and until Connole drained a pair with 12 seconds remaining for an 81-77 cushion. Moments before that, UNA had a terrific chance to tie but DeAndre Hersey missed a short jumper and, fouled on the offensive rebounds, missed both his foul shots with 15.5 left.
"I hope we get a chance Sunday night," Champagne said, stretching his arms around the chair backs where Long and Darrington sat in the interview room.
"If we don't there's two seniors (Hersey and Keynan Jackson) and I'm very disappointed for them," he continued. "But a bunch of guys in that locker room are coming back and hopefully the sting of playing their last game in the first round of our conference tournament propels them into working hard in the off-season."

The Dalai Lama on Saturday encouraged people gathered for the first of four weekend talks at the University of Michigan to preserve their own religious traditions while respecting others with differing beliefs.
"As you know, I always believed since all different traditions have the same potential to bring inner peace, inner value ... it is important to keep one's own tradition," he told about 8,000 people at a two-hour morning teaching session at Crisler Arena on "Engaging Wisdom and Compassion."
"In my case, I learn more about Islam, about Christianity, Judaism, ... through personal contact," the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader said. "My attitude (is) a genuine admiration and respect and appreciation for those traditions."
Archived live video of the first Saturday lecture:
A hush fell over those at the basketball arena as the Dalai Lama walked on the main floor stage. The audience, as well as monks and others sitting cross-legged on the stage floor, rose as he emerged.
Sharon Drews, a 42-year-old lawyer, drove with her mother on Friday night from Elkhart, Ind. to attend the morning teaching session. Drews, who is Catholic, said afterward that she appreciated the Dalai Lama's message.
"The most valuable thing for me was that he said there are so many (religious) traditions leading to the same self-improvement, but we need to allow people to follow the tradition that's most effective for them," Drews said.
The Dalai Lama, who fled to India after a failed uprising in 1959 in Tibet, arrived in the U.S. last week, a day after demonstrators disrupted the Olympic torch run in San Francisco in a protest of China's treatment of his people.
Outside the arena where Dalai Lama spoke, about 100 pro-Chinese demonstrators rallied. They waved Chinese and U.S. flags, and held posters showing support for the upcoming summer Olympics in Beijing.
"When the riots started (in China), our concern was how to tell the truth to the American people," said Jinhui Chen, a 34-year-old University of Michigan graduate student. He added: "We have a peaceful protest. We don't want to incite riots."
Protests have sprung up throughout Tibetan areas of western China after demonstrations in Lhasa turned violent on March 14. While the Dalai Lama has been in the U.S. there have been more reports of unrest among Tibetans.
In Ann Arbor, rallies were planned throughout the weekend to coincide with the Dalai Lama's visit.
Additional teaching sessions at the arena were planned for Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, and the Dalai Lama is scheduled to deliver a lecture on sustainability on Sunday afternoon sponsored the university's School of Natural Resources and Environment.
The three teaching sessions are sponsored by Jewel Heart Tibetan Buddhist learning center, The Tibet Fund and the Garrison Institute.
Jewel Heart founder Gelek Rimpoche said earlier this week that the Dalai Lama last fall accepted an invitation extended by Buddhist center after his last visit to Ann Arbor in 1994. Once that was in place, Jewel Heart worked with the university in arranging his Sunday speech on sustainability.
The Dalai Lama is scheduled to talk with Undersecretary of State Paula Dobriansky on Monday in Michigan and speak at Colgate University in Hamilton, N.Y., on Tuesday.

Straight cash, no more.
Former New England Patriots and future Hall of Fame wide receiver Randy Moss has decided to stop cashing checks and hang up his gloves after 13 seasons in the NFL.
According to his agent, Joel Segal, Moss, 34, was considering several offers from teams, but ultimately made the surprising decision to retire Monday.
Moss caught 954 passes for 14,858 yards with 153 touchdowns while playing for Minnesota, Oakland, New England and Tennessee.
He currently ranks second among receivers in all-time touchdowns behind Jerry Rice (197), eighth in touchdowns and fifth in yards.
Moss and Brett Favre would both be eligible for Hall of Fame enshrinement in 2015.
Two weeks ago, Segal told NFL.com that that his client was in great shape, going through two-a-days, and ready to prove that his 2010 season was a fluke.
"He is determined, motivated and quite frankly has a huge chip on his shoulder," Segal said. "Whatever team ends up getting Randy, they're going to know they're getting the old Randy Moss."
The seven-time Pro Bowler joined the Patriots in 2007 from Oakland in exchange for a fourth-round pick and caught an NFL record 23 touchdown passes, helping lead New England to a 16-0 regular season before losing to the New York Giants in the Super Bowl.
He played three full seasons in New England, compiling 3,904 yards and 50 touchdowns, but split last year between three teams after falling out of favor with the Patriots following a September press conference where he said he didn't feel appreciated by the organization.
The Patriots traded him to the Minnesota Vikings, the team he was drafted by, in October before he was released and picked up by Tennessee for the final eight weeks of the season.
He finished his final campaign with 28 receptions, 393 yards, and five touchdowns.

Hallstead, PA (WBNG Binghamton) Neighbors in Susquehanna County seek shelter after entire neighborhoods wash away.
"In our trailer park, all it is is water," said Marissa Sharer from Hallstead.
Everyone from that trailer park is here at Blue Ridge Elementary School where the American Red Cross is assisting flood victims.
Last night, the National Guard got them out of their neighborhood and into safety before floods carried their homes away.
"We don't even know what's going on with the trailers or what they even look like because we haven't been able to get down there and look. From what pictures have shown through different people, they're pretty much washed up," said Mindi Goodwin from Hallstead.
This is the second time in one week that neighbors have had to be evacuated.
"If you're with this family, you're always going to have fun," said Dustin Burdick from Hallstead.
"We never have a dull moment. We've got to make fun out of it. We can't just sit around and be bummed out and worry about everything," said Melissa Sharer from Hallstead.
Families who didn't have to evacuate their homes, or lose them to the flood, are working together to fight flood waters.
"We put the stuff in that shed and we bring it up in the yard," said Landen from Hallstead.
Landen lives along route 11 near Hallstead.
His backyard is gone, and his basement is full of four feet of water, but his family is better off than the rest of Hallstead across the bridge that is closed to vehicle traffic.
"Hallstead is a disaster area. That's putting it mildly. Pretty much any place you want to go for food or gas is gone. And we heard from neighbors and family relatives that they might not even reopen. So we will have to travel to get things now."
They will be traveling carefully, around closed and flooded out roads until the water subsides.
The American Red Cross says its shelter at Blue Ridge Elementary will be open until it is no longer needed.

This was a perfect find for us...colorful, upholstered, storage, tufted, the right size and easy to move. It seems like great quality. We're using it instead of a coffee table so that our 8 month old can safely play near it. She loves pulling up on it. The wheels make it convenient to scoot around as needed. Love this piece very much.

In a bid to remove the interim from his title, Scot Graden emphasized his work ethic to the Saline Area Schools board during his interview Tuesday evening.
"You need somebody who can flat out work hard for the district," the interim superintendent told board members.
Graden is one of five finalists under consideration for the position. He and George Przygodski, deputy superintendent for human resources and operations for the Avondale School District in Auburn Hills, faced the school board during interviews Tuesday.
Graden listed his work ethic as one of the top five qualities he would bring to the position, which he has filled since the forced resignation of Superintendent Beverley Geltner last October.
Przygodski noted his local connections during his interview, saying he previously lived in Washtenaw County and his son attended the Ann Arbor Public Schools. He said he wants to return.
"I want to come home," Przygodski said. "I don't just want to come here. I want to retire here. I'm not an outsider. I'm one of you."
Both Przygodski and Graden said they were good listeners and collaborative decision makers.
Przygodski said he has 31 years of experience as an educator and spent the bulk of his career in the Plymouth-Canton school district as a math and science teacher at the middle and elementary school levels.
His classroom experience contrasts with Graden, whose background is more administrative. An audience member asked Graden whether a lack of classroom experience would impact his role as superintendent.
Graden responded that the skills gained in the classroom are not necessarily those most needed by a superintendent, but said he can help classroom teachers do their jobs better. "What I can do is put systems in place that will allow that information to be gathered and used," he said.
Graden said it's important to involve as many people as possible in most decisions. But for some - such as how to cut the budget - it's preferable to collaborate with smaller groups of people. As superintendent, Graden said it's his job to draw up scenarios for tough choices like budget cuts, lead the discussion and, in the end, make the decision.
Przygodski spoke of difficult decisions he has made or implemented, including privatizing Avondale's maintenance services.
"Those custodians lived in our community. They went to school in our community," Przygodski said.
But the privatization has been successful, he said. "We have a really great team of people who are now cleaning and maintaining our buildings," Przygodski said.

Grand Rapids Press writer Michael Zuidema joined Bill Simonson inside the "GR Press Box" on Monday to talk about Darren McCarty's stint with the Grand Rapids Griffins and what he could do to help the Detroit Red Wings.
"I think he definitely can (help the Red Wings)," Zuidema said. "The Wings' big question mark people have brought up is toughness and I don't think there's any doubt Darren can bring that up.
"And bringing in a guy with three Stanley Cup championships can only help you out. If he can bring some secondary scoring, which the Red Wings have been desperate for, that'd be just a bigger bonus."

A 28-year-old Florida man was charged with aggravated battery and cruelty to a child after an incident at a Destin park on Saturday, the Northwest Florida Daily News reports.
Walter Hall Stowe approached a 17-year-old boy at the park and began shouting at him for unknown reasons. An older man then approached Stowe to get him to leave the boy alone.
Witnesses told deputies Stowe and the older man began arguing and when the dispute became more heated Stowe began punching the man in the face until he had the man on the ground.
The 17-year-old then attempted to pull Stowe off the man when Stowe lunged at him with a sharp object, cutting his right thigh. Authorities believe the boy was cut by a knife or razor blade.
Stowe was arrested Saturday and is scheduled to appear in court April 17.

VCHS tennis team to open practice
Practice for members of the Vandalia Community High School tennis team will begin this Monday.
Practices will be on weekdays from 8 a.m.-10 a.m. at the high school tennis courts.
Athletes must have a physical on file before attending.
The season opens at home against conference foes Roxana on Monday, Aug. 22, at 4:30 p.m. and Marquette Catholic on Thursday, Aug. 25 at 4:30 p.m.
Beginning last Wednesday, the fencing at the high school softball diamond was removed to make way for the construction of new dugouts that will match those at the high school baseball field. The Field of Dreams committee is holding its monthly meeting at the First Presbyterian Church in Vandalia on Tuesday at 6:30 p.m., where more information will be shared. The public is invited to attend.
The new all-weather track at Vandalia Community High School was not completed by the initial Aug. 1 deadline, but it is nearing completion.
Heavy rains have delayed construction at times this summer, but it does not appear that the track construction will have any effect on the first home football game, which is on Sept. 9 against Roxana.
Gov. Pat Quinn last Thursday signed legislation that will help protect Illinois student-athletes from concussions and other brain injuries.
The new law ensures that athletes who receive a concussion will not be allowed to return to play or practice until they are evaluated and receive written clearance from a licensed health professional.
Additionally, the law ensures that student-athletes, parents and coaches are able to recognize the signs of a concussion.
Practice for the Vandalia Community High School tennis team will begin on Monday, Aug. 15.
Last season, the tennis team won five matches, which was a higher number than coach Kevin Schroeder expected.
Vandalia Community High School's new girls track coach hopes to build a program based on allowing athletes to have fun, while still getting better as the season progresses.
Gena Nance, who qualified for the Illinois High School Association state track meet four years for Charleston High School, was recently hired by VCHS to fill the void left by Mike Travelstead, who retired in May.
DECATUR – By the sixth inning of the double-elimination championship game on Saturday, the Vandalia High School softball team had left the bases loaded twice and left runners in scoring position in the other three innings.
Coach Brian Buscher sensed a change.
And he was right.
The Lady Vandals brought all their hitters to the plate, scoring five runs in the sixth to regain the lead that they had traded with Warrensburg-Latham all game en route to a 15-13 victory that gave them the title in the Decatur league.
DECATUR – As the game between Warrensburg-Latham and the "No-Names" played out, the Lady Vandals sat and waited to see which team they would face in the 2 p.m. title game.
The problem was that the game being played didn't end until just after 3 p.m., and by that point, the Lady Vandals had been sitting in an heat index of about 120 degrees for almost two hours before learning they would face top-seeded Warrensburg-Latham in the title game.
DECATUR – Looking back at the Decatur summer league, Vandalia High School softball coach Brian Buscher realized something after his short-handed team won the championship game on Saturday night.
The long drives to Decatur every week paid off, as every player gained something from the 19 games the Lady Vandals played.
"Everybody," Buscher said. "Getting those at-bats, and any time you can have live situations, kids can learn on the field. That's why we come up here."
A collection of 12 former Vandalia High School softball players gathered for a doubleheader against the current high school team on Monday night.
The former stars got the best of a short-handed varsity squad in the first game, pulling away to a 13-5 victory, but the alumni did not fare as well in the second game, falling, 5-2.
The alumni got on the board first, thanks to Hannah Edgar's second-inning single that brought in Whitney Newsom and Michelle McNary.

For more than 20 years, Boot Kikkers Bingo has done a booming business in providing entertainment to Galveston County residents, all while supporting local charities.
Boot Kikkers offers a gaming atmosphere that the whole family can enjoy. Kids aged 7 and up are welcome to join in on the gaming fun when accompanied by their parents.
The bingo hall features a refreshment bar that serves everything from burgers and fries to delicious shrimp salads, and offers free refills on soft drinks, coffee and tea all night long! There are also arcade-style crane games with stuffed animals for the kids.
Boot Kikkers moved from League City to the 25,000-square-foot facility in Gulfway Plaza in La Marque in the summer of 2008. All profits from Bingo go to charity. From that time to December 2013, Boot Kikkers has given away over $21 million in cash prizes and raised almost $3 million for local charitable organizations. The state received prize fees of over $1 million.
All profits from the games are donated to five local charities: the Hitchcock Volunteer Fire Department, the Animal Alliance of Galveston County, the Mark Kilroy Foundation, Our Lady of Lourdes – Knights of Columbus, and the Galveston County Detachment Marine Corps League.
"Not many people are aware of the local benefit," says Jesse Schauf, head of operations at Boot Kikkers. "When you play bingo here, what you're doing is helping the community out. It's quite a bit of money put back into different charities in the community that do a lot of good work."
While smoking is allowed in the main hall, nonsmokers have the option of playing bingo in a spacious nonsmoking room. The nonsmoking area is separated from the main hall by a dividing wall with large glass windows. It also has its own separate ventilation system.
Every Friday night, guests can participate in a "Triple Play" session of bingo, where players can participate in an extra session of bingo. Cash prizes for bingo on Triple Play nights total $7,500. Boot Kikkers also hosts a Triple Play on the first Sunday of every month. The third sessions begin shortly after the second session at about 10:15 p.m. on Friday and 5:45 p.m. on Sunday. Saturday players can participate in three early games beginning at 6:45 p.m. with prizes of $500 each. Players can also participate in a variety of mini-games called "pull tabs" for cash prizes.
Come play bingo at Boot Kikkers any night of the week. Regular bingo sessions begin Monday - Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. and Sunday at 3 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. They are located at 12009 Delany Rd. in the Gulfway Plaza. Take exit #13 off 45 Interstate. For more information, call 409-933-4430.

Spain's foreign minister said Monday that he is open to sharing diplomatic, trade and cultural offices abroad with Latin American countries under certain circumstances.
At a ceremony in Madrid, Jose Manuel Garcia-Margallo propounded the idea as a way to make "worthwhile savings," have a greater presence overseas and promote cooperation among the Ibero-American community.
"Wherever an Ibero-American country or Spain doesn't see any justification for having its own representation, we will try to enter into collaboration agreements," he said.
Madrid has already begun collaborating that way within the European Union, and, as a first step, has closed its embassy in Yemen, moving Spanish diplomatic personnel to the EU mission in Sanaa.
Spain is the "pioneer" of this approach and other countries are studying whether to follow its example, according to Garcia-Margallo.
He noted the accord signed with Mexico, which will allow Spain to make use of the more-extensive Mexican network of consulates in the United States.
The minister said the accord comes in a perfect year because it is the quincentennial of the discovery of Florida, and the Spanish government wants to make use of the occasion to boost its relations with the United States, where Spanish is the first language for some 50 million people. EFE

Snug Harbor hosts a heck of a good slime Aug. 9
Bathtime has never rocked so hard.
Not after Nickelodeon's Slime Across America Tour oozes onto Staten Island Aug. 9 to shower kiddies in the cable network's trademark green goo.
The free family fest also brings an interactive stage show, a virtual sliming zone, Nickelodeon-themed games and an appearance by Top 40 artist Colby O'Donis to Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden.
"Slime embodies what's great about being a kid," says Frank Tanki, vice president of Nickelodeon brand marketing. "It's surprising. It's silly. It takes on a lot of different forms. It's messy and it's celebratory."
The gooey good times roll from noon-5 p.m.
Interscope recording artist O'Donis will perform at 2 p.m. His summer hit, "What You Got," peaked at No. 14 on Billboard's Top 100 chart. "The Nick Live! Slime Show," inviting kids on stage to play games -- the winners get slimed -- goes on at noon and 4 p.m.
Offstage, kids can romp through five activity stations centered around an 18-wheel "Slime Mobile." Budding musical talents can rock out to the "iCarly" theme song on guitars and drums, take the karaoke mic to "perform with" the Naked Brothers Band and pose with virtual slime and play games.
The Battle of the Slime Bowl pits two-on-two. One player from each team is outfitted with a bike helmet with toothpicks on top. Those players then sit under a giant Plinko board. The other player from each team stands on a ladder above the Plinko board and drops water balloons. The team who breaks the most balloons wins.
Slime has been integral to the cable kids' network's identity for more than 25 years, notes Tanki. It was first introduced on "You Can't Do That On Television," a Canadian children's program that landed on Nick in 1982. "That put us and slime on the map," says Tanki.
Slime stole the spotlight again on the children's game show "Double Dare," which aired from 1986 to 1993. The program's "physical challenges" dared kiddies to get messy with water, uncooked rice, whipped cream and the network's iconic green slime. The substance continues to play a large role on Nickelodeon's Kids Choice Awards, where celebs like Justin Timberlake and Harrison Ford get sprayed.

Despite having flat nipples and needing to use a nipple shield, breastfeeding was going very well for the first 4 weeks. I was actually overproducing and at times my milk would come in too fast for him. I started pumping for relief because my breasts were so full. (I also had a clogged duct I needed to work out, which is now okay.)
Going into week 5, I feel like I just went through a massive hormonal shift and all of a sudden I'm not producing enough milk for him. It's devastating. He's sucking and sucking and nothing is coming out. Then he starts crying. And I squeezed my breast and tried to get some milk manually, and nothing comes. I decided to make a bottle from my stored milk and he ate another 2 ounces after my boobs had run dry.
Has this happened to anyone before? Does anyone know why my milk supply would change so drastically overnight? I literally went from having too much, to not having enough in a flash. (On another note, I do believe he just completed a growth spurt and he was eating like a horse over the past few days. Did he just bleed me dry?)
Other things going on with me that make me think I just went through a huge hormonal shift:
-I had a migraine today
-My skin is breaking out
-My eyes are dry
-I had postpartum hives that are now so much better today
-I am now crying at the drop of a hat (I've hardly cried at all since having the baby)
-And the drastic change in my milk supply
I sent my husband out for Cheerios and Fenugreek, so I'm going to give that a shot. I'm just wondering if this is normal? Has anyone experienced this? Do you have any other advice? I feel so sad about it.
We also bought formula just in case we get into a situation where he's starving and I can't produce. But I don't want to have to give it to him!
I would appreciate your help! Thanks in advance!
