Mubarak: Gaza is Israel's responsibility
By Jennifer Lipman, June 23, 2010
President Mubarak
The Egyptian president has accused Israel of trying to avoid its obligations to Gaza.
Addressing Egyptian MPs in Cairo, President Hosni Mubarak said: "Israel is trying to shirk its responsibility to Gaza and throw it at Egypt."
President Mubarak said Israel was not working towards peace with the Palestinians but was trying to "perpetuate internal Palestinian divisions".
And despite Israel's announcement that the blockade of Gaza would be largely eased, he said only Egypt was "investing all of [its] efforts" in stopping the restrictions.
Egypt also closed its borders to Gaza after Hamas won power in the area in 2007, although restrictions were lifted in the aftermath of the flotilla clash.

PAULSBORO — Weiss True Value hardware store was the secret location of this year's first Gloucester County cash mob event Friday, which brought business owners and community members in to help stimulate the economy and highlight the importance of shopping local.
During a cash mob, individuals are asked to spend at least $10 in the chosen business. It draws attention to locally owned small businesses and also serves as a networking event for other small business owners.
"I love it. We all need to help each other," said Theresa LaMonaca, a member of the Uptown Pitman Chamber of Commerce and owner of Treasures on Broadway. "If we can't help each other how do we expect the public to? I'm all for it."
More than 30 people walked through the doors of the small-town hardware store Friday afternoon, everyone prepared to spend a little money.
Weiss True Value is family owned and has been a staple in the Paulsboro community for more than 80 years. More than just a hardware store, customers can get keys cut, purchase appliances and find just about anything they need for their home in its aisles.
For Phil Weiss, the store's owner, seeing the influx of customers was unexpected, but an exciting occurrence.
"This is incredible," he said. "It's wonderful that these folks came down here and took their time to help a business in Gloucester County."
The line of new customers went through the store's entire main aisle with everything from flower seeds and garden planters to light bulbs and vacuums making up the purchases.
Sister Jerilyn Einstein, the principal of Paulsboro's Guardian Angels Regional School, stood in line with a set of Pyrex dishes she plans on donating as a door prize for an upcoming fundraiser she is helping to plan.
"I'm here to support our local businesses," she said. "Weiss' has always been very good to our school and I wanted to return the favor."

Feds indict couple for child porn
An Oak Harbor couple was recently indicted by a federal grand jury in U.S. District Court in Seattle on charges related to child pornography.
James Lee Wright, 30, and Tracey L. Wright, 29, were both charged Aug. 21 with receipt of material involving the sexual exploitation of children and possession of material involving the sexual exploitation of children.
James Lee Wright was also charged with the more serious charge of production of material involving the sexual exploitation of children. The indictment states that Wright compelled a boy under the age of 12 into sexually explicit conduct with him for the purpose of producing visual depictions.
James and Tracey Wright, who are being tried together, were arraigned in court Thursday and both pleaded not guilty to the charges. They are being held without bail. Their trial is set for Nov. 12.
The Wrights were arrested this spring after the FBI served a search warrant on their mobile home at the north end of Oak Harbor. The special agents seized a computer that allegedly contained hundreds of images of child pornography, including images of an adult man molesting an infant.
One image depicts a person who appears to be James Wright in bed with a minor boy, according to the U.S. Attorneys Office.
The FBI started looking at the Wrights during an investigation into Donald Leroy Keffler, a 41-year-old Everett man who allegedly took a bus to California to have sex with an 11-year-old girl he met over the Internet. Keffler told an informant that he had been teaching the couples five-year-old son to perform sex acts and that Tracey Wright ran Internet child porn sites, according to an affidavit written by an FBI agent out of Silverdale.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Kathryn Warma said the FBI is interested in talking to anyone who might have information about the case.
We have a lot of pictures of kids and we dont know who the kids are, she said. We want to identify them and make sure they are safe.
FBI seeks information
The FBI would like to hear from anyone with information about child pornography and the case of Oak Harbor residents James Lee Wright and Tracey L. Wright. Those with information can contact FBI Special Agent Stephanie Gleason at (360)613-2555 or Special Agent Marita Malone at (425) 317-4082.

Figs are stopping traffic in Solon. Anybody who loves the sweet, sexy, tender Mediterranean fruit would understand.
Twenty-two fig trees planted by hairdressing mogul Dino Palmieri at his Bainbridge Road headquarters are now 3 years old and bearing fruit, sometimes a gallon a day from each plant.
"A guy from Moreland Hills was driving by," said Palmieri. "He was pointing them out to his wife and almost got in an accident."
Palmieri's love of figs has followed him from his native Italy, but he never wanted to do the Old World thing when it came to winter storage. That includes digging a trench, tipping the bendable branches down and covering them up. He also worried that they might get knocked out by a hard Northeast Ohio freeze. He figured it was strictly pots for figs.
"In pots, they only grow so big," he said. "But here [next to the building], it's unlimited."
Palmieri changed his mind about growing them when he saw a local plant thriving in southern exposure against a brick façade. That set-up is just what he had at his headquarters.
"It's 10 to 15 degrees hotter than on the street," he said. Now he winterizes the trees by wrapping them in burlap.
When spring comes, he doesn't do much to amend the soil, but he does add fertilizer.
Most figs have gone to family and friends, and to a bakery that turned out a chocolate and vanilla cake with fresh fig and fig jam flourishes. (See recipe below.) Full disclosure: He insisted on dropping a few off to me, too. I promptly wrapped some in prosciutto from Gallucci's in Cleveland and broiled them. The others were chopped into a bitter greens salad with shaved Parmesan. Palmieri approved via email.
Politeness has paid off for other admirers.
"These ladies come into the office one day, they're from Syria, and they want some of the figs," he said. "I tell them they're for friends and family, but you can have some. The next week, another lady from Syria shows up. She said she was just shopping next door. But she was looking at the figs, and then she said a friend told her about them. So I gave her some, too.
"I'm very proud of my figs," he said.
Dino's Fig Cake
Makes 12 servings
1 layer chocolate cake
1 layer white cake
1 quart heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
10 ounces fig preserves
20 fresh figs
10 ounces melting chocolate
Get cake layers: You can either bake the layers from scratch or a box, or buy prepared from a willing bakery. Make sure they are completely cool before you use them.
Make cream: Beat heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla to cream and whip until stiff peaks form. Fold in two tablespoons of fig preserves into whipped cream. Prepare fresh figs: Chop 10 figs and set aside. Melt chocolate and dip remaining figs in chocolate and set aside to cool.
Assemble: Place one layer of chocolate cake on a plate or cake board. Spread half of remaining fig preserves on cake layer. Spread one-third of fig cream on top of fig preserves. Sprinkle chopped figs on fig cream and top with layer of white cake. Spread remaining fig preserves on cake Use remaining fig cream to frost top and sides of cake. Decorate top of cake with chocolate dipped figs.

Customer Reviews
I could not praise this app enough. I am an amateur astronomer who enjoys some astrophotography. I can control all my telescopes, a 14" Meade LX200 GPS, a 8" Celestron Nexstar 8SE, a 14" Meade LX 850, with SkySafari Pro and the SkyFi wireless serial port adapter. It just plain works. I sit in my kitchen and browse the heavens with SkySafari Pro, decide which object I want to view, be it a distant galaxy cluster, an obscure planetary nebula, an asteroid, globular cluster, and hit a couple of buttons in the app, the telescope slews to that object, and then I am ready to take a picture. SkySafari provides all the critical object data, such as recession velocities, from which I can calculate approximate distances to galaxies. I enthusiastically recommend this app to anyone interested in astronomy.
Still Amazing After All These Years
I've been happily using earlier versions of SkySafari for several years and can only say that SkySafari 4 Pro is still the champion! It's totally awesome! I've tried them all and this one is definitely on the top of the heap with the largest data base of any sky simulation app. The user interface is easy to use once you play around with it a little bit. There's so many things that this app is capable of that it can seem a little, OK a lot, daunting when you first fire it up, but well worth the effort. They also have the best customer service and online support group. Well worth the bucks and effort.
Very useful app with constant improvements
As I've installed updates, I've also recognized improvement where they needed to occur.
Custom settings afford for good visibility of objects' names while at the eyepiece, as well as custom settings for adjusting recognizability of stars for star-hopping from field to field.
A great boost to counter all the other challenges such as poor weather, dewing, mosquitos, the moon, late sunsets & early sunrises, as well as the bitter cold of Minnesota Winters.
Because of the fore mentioned challenges, not being able to easily find and identify objects would've been the "last straw" for me, and for a long time.

Chris Brown – I Can't Win lyrics
Tell me what did I do
To make you hate me so much
Why you angry all the time?
Why don't you wanna ride for me?
We used to make love
When you called I would follow
Now the only thing you love is a bottle
The only thing you got left is your shadow

But until he started working on "Piano Men" — which runs this weekend at the Virginia Samford Theatre — he had never really done what amounts to a solo show for Birmingham audiences.
"It's just one of those things that's kind of on my bucket list of things I've got to do before I die," says Parsons.
So at the ripe old age of 43, the former choir director at Pinson Valley High School and Mountain Brook High School will get behind the piano to sing the music of Billy Joel, Elton John, Barry Manilow and others.
"I've been wanting to do an Elton John show forever, and it kind of blossomed from there," says Parsons. "It was really tough whittling it down. We're celebrating many of the guys who play the piano."
With a structure provided by Abe Reybold, Parsons will tell his own story during the show.
"It's like coming to a piano bar, but I talk about me, how I came to know this music and play it," he says. "It's really about me and how I came to know the music of these guys."
Early on, the Oak Grove High School student was more into Prince and Van Halen, but when he started playing piano bars in town — JoJo's, Eighty-Eights and Barrister's Tavern, among others — he would get requests for Joel, John and others.
"I learned to play these things in the piano bar, by request," Parsons says.
These days, Parsons, who has a degree in music education from UAB, still plays on area stages, and he's also assistant choral conductor at Bluff Park United Methodist Church.
His day job, though? "I help take out prostates in the mornings," says Parsons, who works at Urology Centers.
This weekend, though, it's all music, and Parsons hopes audiences will enjoy the trip down memory lane.
"I want the show to bring back memories," he says. "I want everyone to have a good time."
"Piano Men" runs Thursday through Saturday at 8 p.m. and March 7 at 3 p.m. in the Martha Moore Sykes Studio at the Virginia Samford Theatre, 1116 26th St. South. Tickets are $20 and available by calling 251-1206 or going to www.virginiasamfordtheatre.org.

Sequestration's full impact on the ability to investigate threats won't be known until the next security failure occurs, according to the country's director of national intelligence.
James Clapper told the Senate Armed Services Committee the financial cutbacks erode the intelligence community's ability to fully investigate plots against the U.S.
"Sequestration forces the intelligence community to reduce all intelligence activities and functions without regard to impact on our mission," he said. "Unlike more directly observable sequestration impacts like shorter hours at the parks or longer security lines at airports the degradation to intelligence will be insidious. It will be gradual and almost invisible until, of course, we have an intelligence failure."
The intelligence community, which includes the Department of Homeland Security, Defense Intelligence Agency, Federal Bureau of Intelligence, Treasury Department, and the National Security Agency, is looking at nearly $4 billion in cuts from sequestration.
Clapper's testimony came just three days after bomb blasts at the Boston marathon killed three people and wounded scores more. Those type of threats - whether from internal or external forces - are growing daily, Clapper said, adding, the country has never "confronted a more diverse array of threats, crises and challenges around the world."
"Threats are more interconnected and viral," he said. "Events which, at first blush, seem local and irrelevant can quickly set off transnational disruptions that affect U.S. national interests."
And while Clapper said Al-Qaida's ability to launch a massive coordinated attack is diminished, the jihadist movement remains in place, strengthened by the continuing unrest in the Arab world. He said concerns center mainly on Iran's nuclear development and the bloody revolution in Syria.
In Afghanistan, Clapper said the U.S. troop draw down will continue to exacerbate the country's precarious financial position.
"The Taliban-led insurgency has diminished in some areas of Afghanistan but is still resilient and capable of challenging U.S. international goals," he said. "The coalition draw down will have an impact on Afghanistan's economy, which is likely to decline after 2014."
The multitude of threats make sequestration's across-the-board cuts difficult to understand, Clapper said, adding he saw the results of budget cuts to the intelligence community some 20 years ago.
"We were then enjoined to reap the peace dividend occasioned by the end of the Cold War," he said. "We reduced the intelligence community by about 23 percent. During the mid and late '90s, we closed many CIA stations, reduced (human intelligence) collectors, cut analysts, allowed our overhead architecture to atrophy, neglected basic infrastructure needs such as power, space and cooling, and let our facilities decay. And most damagingly, we badly distorted the workforce."
Those cutbacks took more than a decade to overcome, Clapper said, adding sequestration poses an even greater threat.
"I often wonder whether we failed to fully appreciate the onslaught of terrorism," as a result of those reductions during the 1990s, he said. "I fear I've seen this movie before."

GENESEE COUNTY, MI -- The county Board of Canvassers is scheduled to meet at 1 p.m. today to start its job of certifying Tuesday's local primary election results.
The four-member board -- two Democrats and two Republicans -- could have questions about results in Richfield Township, where election officials had some trouble balancing poll books Tuesday.
County Clerk Michael J. Carr said today that the township was entering all election information on a computer for the first time after having done it manually in previous elections.
Carr said the election appears to have been routine otherwise and said he was not aware of any other issues that might be raised today.
Just 16.4 percent of registered voters cast ballots Tuesday, according to unofficial results.

Nobody knows better than Muskegon knows the destruction that occurs when waste is dumped into the Great Lakes --- or into the ground near the lake.
One of the legacies of Muskegon's manufacturing era is a double listing on the Environmental Protection Agency's Great Lakes toxic hot spots list -- once for Muskegon Lake and once for White Lake.
For more than three decades, this lakeshore county has gotten almost as much recognition for its pollution as it has for its gorgeous beaches, innovative metals manufacturing, first-rate health care system and its fantastic festivals.
So, of course, we're a little sensitive when our lakeshore neighbors -- and our elected officials -- support continued dumping of coal ash in a public waterway by the coal-fired SS Badger ferry. The Ludington Daily News even accused our mayor, Steve Warmington, of nefarious purposes when he challenged Congressman Bill Huizenga's support of continued dumping of coal ash.
"One can't prove intent," the LDN opined. "In this case it's difficult to believe that suddenly carferry coal ash is a concern to our neighbors to the south."
It's no secret that Muskegon also is port to a cross-lake ferry carrying passengers to Wisconsin and that the community is quite proud of that. And it's no secret that the two ferry companies are in major competition with each other. And it's no secret that both communities need the tourism dollars and jobs the two companies generate.
But how does that translate into celebrating polluting Lake Michigan -- even by very small amounts, which by the way, begin to add up over 50 years.
The Ludington editorial was headlined, "All we are saying is give Badger a chance." We're good with that. But the owners of the Badger have known since at least 2006 they were facing a deadline to convert their ship to another fuel or find a different way to dispose of the coal ash. They even negotiated the current 2013 deadline with the EPA in 2009.
Now they want to be allowed to continue dumping for the life of the ship, when coal-fired ships in the Pacific northwest and other communities have all converted to a different fuel.
If you really do love the lake, Ludington, we say prove it.
It took a hardy bunch of Muskegon County citizens, plus elected and appointed officials, working diligently every day to find a way to clean up our pollution. Finally, the millions needed have been coming this way to remove polluted sediment, restore shorelines and return habitat needed so wildlife and fish can thrive in our lake.
We are so close to getting off the toxic hot spot list, we can almost smell the marsh marigolds.
What will that mean? That our children and grandchildren and their grandchildren will be able to use the public waterways for recreation without fear of exposure to something toxic. It means the lakes will thrive and continue to sustain this area.
Our community also plans to continue using the lake for commercial purposes. There's been renewed interest in the use of Muskegon's deep water port. Huizenga warns that a runaway EPA could regulate the community's plans out of existence, a reference to the Badger's predicament.
Of course, Muskegon County doesn't want to see that happen. But, if the EPA's rules will protect the hard work already poured into the lakes to clean them up, we say bring them on.
This community will work to find solutions to the challenges. And we won't do it by polluting the public's lakes.

Eric Dewayne Gilbert, 27, of Tuscaloosa and Timothy Rayshion Gilbert, 26, of Tuscaloosa were each charged with two counts of third-degree burglary after a foot pursuit by officers led to their arrests.
Police responded to a theft in progress call at the complex in the 100 block of 39th Street East at 8:27 a.m. and found a blue 1983 Chevrolet pickup truck parked out of sight from the main road, Tuscaloosa police spokesman Sgt. Brent Blankley said.
Officers saw two men run from the vacant building into a field and chased them in a foot pursuit, Blankley said. One of the suspects was caught by officers.
Blankley said the other suspect ran into the woods and was found by a TPD officer and his K-9 dog.
Both men are accused of entering the apartments by force and taking copper from the building.
After being interviewed by investigators, both men were placed in the Tuscaloosa County Jail. Bond was set at $30,000 for each of them.

HAUTE, Ind. - The Indiana State women's basketball team
put three into double figures on the offensive end and put together another
strong defensive effort, sending the Sycamores to a 58-41 victory over the
Creighton Bluejays inside Hulman Center on Friday night.
The victory improves Indiana State to 13-8 on the season and an even 5-5 in the Missouri Valley Conference, snapping an eight-game losing streak to the Bluejays. Before Friday, ISU's last win over Creighton was at home on Jan. 3, 2009. Creighton (16-5, 8-2 MVC) was held to their lowest scoring output since a 40-35 victory over Liberty to open the 2010-11 season.
ISU and CU battled back-and-forth over the opening 10 minutes of action, as the Bluejays held a 12-10 lead with 10:10 left in the first half following back-to-back three-pointers from Jordan Garrison and Marissa Janning. Indiana State's defense took control of the game after Janning's trey, holding the Bluejays without a field goal over the remaining 10 minutes of the half as the Sycamores closed the period on an 18-2 run to take a 28-14 lead at the break.
Freshman Marina Laramie led the way in the first half, totaling eight points and nine rebounds. Sophomore Racheal Mahan also added eight points in the first half, as the team shot 11-for-33 (33.3%) from the field and out-rebounded CU by a 27-16 margin. Creighton went 4-for-26 (15.4%) from the field in the first half and 2-for-14 (14.3%) from beyond the three-point arc.
Indiana State answered every Creighton push in the second half, as the Bluejays were never able to get closer than 10 points over the second 20 minutes of play. The Sycamores took their largest lead of the game on a layup by junior Anna Munn with 17:57 remaining, capping a 6-0 run and putting ISU in front 34-16.
Creighton entered Friday's game as the national leader in three-pointers, averaging 9.6 treys per game, but Indiana State's defense held the Bluejays to 5-for-27 (18.5%) shooting for the game from beyond the arc.
Laramie posted her first career double-double on Friday, finishing with 10 points and 14 rebounds. Mahan (14 points) and senior Taylor Whitley (14 points) tied for the team-lead in scoring, as Whitley inched closer to 1,000 points for her career, finishing the night at 995. Janning led all scorers with 15 points for the Bluejays.
Indiana State improved to 11-1 on the season when winning on the boards, out-rebounding Creighton by a 48-37 margin. ISU is also 35-7 under third-year head coach Teri Moren when allowing 61 points or fewer.
The Sycamores return to Hulman Center on Sunday afternoon for their Pink Game to raise funds for breast cancer research, hosting Drake at 2:05 p.m. Drake (7-14, 2-8 MVC) fell 81-57 at Illinois State on Friday.

Washington -- Washington Wizards guard John Wall scored a game-high 29 points Friday night as the Wizards dominated the New Orleans Hornets, winning 96-87 in the Verizon Center. It was second loss of the three-game road trip for the Hornets, who play at the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night before returning to New Orleans for a Monday night home game against the Golden State Warriors.
The Hornets played the Wizards on even terms in the first half, the teams heading into the locker room tied at 50-50.
But as has been the case so often this year, the Hornets offense failed to show up in the third quarter. After scoring 17 points in the first half, Eric Gordon was scoreless in the third, going 0 for 4 from the field in the period. Gordon finished the game with 20 points.
Rookie forward Anthony Davis, who had 12 first quarter points, played just 43 seconds in the third when he picked up his fourth personal foul early on.
New Orleans scored just 14 points in the quarter as the Wizards build a 74-64 lead.
Davis got personal No. 5 with8:56 int he fourth and was a non factor the rest of the way, finishing with 16 points.
Greivis Vasquez had 18 points, nine assists and eight rebounds for the Hornets.

This is supposed to be a celebration.
Belt it out, Red Sox fans. Is everybody happy?
Scores of former players and others will descend on Friday at Fenway Park, where the park will mark its 100th anniversay.
Spoilsports have noted that since this is really the 101st season of Red Sox baseball at Fenway, the gala event arguably comes a year late.
Such an anniversary comes only once, though. The opening of the park was overshadowed in 1912 by the Titanic sinking.
This one must thankfully compete only with present baseball news, not tragic world news, for attention. Trouble is, the news ain't good from Yawkey Way, as my English teacher used to say.
Ever throw a party and the guests showed up grumpy? Welcome to Fenway Park.
Bloggers are debating not whether Bobby Valentine will win 90 games or 100, but whether he'll still be the manager by Memorial Day.
Kevin Youkilis says the Red Sox will be one big happy family. That he had to even discuss the matter is pretty solid evidence they are not.
Even Friday's 100-year celebration will remind us of what's not to celebrate in Red Sox land. Terry Francona has reversed his initial boycott stance and says he'll attend.
It is a high-minded stance for a man who had good reasons to stay away from a party thrown by owners he felt betrayed him. But as the fans cheer Tito, how can they help but wonder how his unpopular replacement wound up in the dugout for a team that looks even worse than its 4-8 record suggests?
All around baseball, spring is busting out all over. Tigers fans this year are like Red Sox fans were last year, wondering how high is up for their talented team.
Stephen Strasburg is pitching again, and doing well. Jamie Moyer won a game at age 49, inspiring not only Middle America, but Middle Aged America.
The Mets and Dodgers are better. This is a great time of year to be a baseball fan, except in Boston.
The Red Sox have spared no expense for the 100-year celebration, which is more than they can say for their pitching or infield.
Most of the greatest living players in club history will come back. One will be 94-year-old Bobby Doerr, the oldest living Hall of Famer and an Oregon resident who once indicated his days of cross-country travel were over.
The Yankees are waiving their own club policy against wearing retro jerseys, and will look like the 1912 New York Highlanders again. Even Boston's archrival is willing to make this a special, festive event.
All that is missing is a home team its own fans can like. The 2012 Red Sox have been giving off the scent of a dysfunctional or at least disjointed lot, less talented than their 2011 predecessors and just as unwieldy as a unit.
Injuries have hit this team hard. Valentine's moves have defied convention, and the pitching decisions in particular have backfired.
This has left all of New England to psychoanalyze this man and his team. Office pools are being organized to predict how long they'll be together.
Maybe Friday's celebration is just what Red Sox fans need, a tonic to distract them from the uneasy feeling that their team is a train running off the tracks.
They should cheer their old-time heroes, celebrate their cathedral of a ballpark and appreciate that a rooting interest in this team allows entry into a very special club, albeit a rather large one.
The rich history of the Red Sox will be on display Friday. It should be an unforgettable show to be enjoyed to the fullest.
Do so, Red Sox fans, because then comes the hard part. The game will begin.
For the Red Sox, the only downer to the 1912 party is the 2012 team

Reader asks: Does TV play a role in bullying behavior? | Ask Erin, Kitsap Week
Dear Erin,
Your column in last week's Kitsap Week entitled "Bullies: not just a school-aged problem" touched a chord with me.
I've been trying to get my thoughts around an idea of one possible contributor to bullying: much of the current crop of television entertainment which involves put-downs or confrontations.
"Two and a Half Men" is a show about putting down women, and each other.
In "Golden Girls," each tries to out-jab the other, but especially pick on Betty White.
The whole "Survivor" series, "The Next Top Model," "The Bachelor (ette)" —all are a series of put-downs.
Have you made the same connections between bullying and television entertainment?
Jim Hochstein
Dear Jim,
You bring up an excellent point.
After reading your letter, I decided to do my own non-scientific study, plopped down on the couch and viewed a handful of old shows to investigate. I set out to answer the question: Has our humor become nasty over the past few decades?
The first show in my queue was an episode of "The Dick Van Dyke Show."
For the most part, it was fairly benign. The cruelest things said were bald jokes directed toward the television producer, some I would categorize as hurtful. Most of the humor, though, came from the quick banter between the characters, with an occasional slapstick bit from Van Dyke. I ended the show feeling lighthearted and amazed at Mary Tyler Moore's small waist.
Next up was "The Andy Griffith Show." Again, a very mellow comedy. The funny bits came from Don Knotts' facial expressions. There was some arguing between Knotts and Griffith, but no below-the-belt hits. There was also some G-rated name calling between Knotts and "Otis." I ended the episode feeling nostalgic and whistling the theme song.
When the opening of "Happy Days" — a childhood staple — came on, I almost cried. It has been years since the jukebox graced my screen. Again, the show's comedy was very mellow. Because it "filmed before a live-studio audience," the humor seemed very natural and not forced. Henry Winkler threw a couple of digs, mainly directed toward Tom Bosley. The most vicious thing I heard came from Ron Howard when he told his sister to "Sit on it." The episode ended, leaving me to feel like a pre-teen again with my crush on Scott Baio.
"The Cosby Show" and "Family Ties" rounded out my blast-to-the-past television marathon. The shows were sweet, good natured and taught lessons such as to come to your parents when you have a problem and that family will love you, even if you are a conservative growing up with liberal parents.
Particularly in "The Cosby Show," the characters clearly respected and loved each other and the humorous moments were derived from their reactions to predicaments rather than at the expense of others.
All of the shows began with a problem, and the solution was worked out over the episode. And even though I know it's not realistic for most problems to be fixed in less than a half hour, I ended all of the shows feeling optimistic.
I can't say the same for present-day television shows.
To contrast the old shows, I watched some current television. And you are exactly correct, much of the humor in today's television lineup comes from putting people down and laughing at their expense.
I watched a rerun of "Two and a Half Men," and finished the episode feeling empty inside. The cheap shots and degrading humor did nothing for my well-being.
Even less-extreme shows seem to find their humor by mocking others and pointing out people's flaws. Isn't that classic bullying behavior — putting down others in order to make yourself look better?
What are we teaching our children? That humor comes by way of making fun of others? And to defend ourselves we should have evil comebacks at the ready? Tit for tat?
Thank you, Jim, for your eye-opening letter. I say to vote with your television remote. Choose to watch shows that don't leave you feeling hollow. Send a letter to the networks, stating your disappointment.
And now excuse me, for I have a date with a red-haired woman who married a Cuban singer. Oh, how I love Lucy.

"Our goal is to help give children and youth a better chance to realize their potential..."
For 170 years, New York Life Insurance Company has been in the business of being there for people when we're needed and helping them to build a better tomorrow. This is also the driving force behind the work of the New York Life Foundation and our Corporate Responsibility programs. We partner with local and national nonprofits dedicated to improving the lives of individuals from all walks of life, with our primary focus on organizations providing services to disadvantaged young people. From educational enhancement to bereavement support for kids who have lost a parent or loved one, our goal is to help give children and youth a better chance to realize their potential and build a brighter future for themselves and the world around us.
The Foundation has awarded almost $220 million in grants since its inception. And while funding for nonprofit agencies has become more difficult during these challenging economic times, our commitment to doing what we can hasn't wavered. In 2014, in fact, the Foundation increased its grants budget by ten percent.
While corporate-level support of vital community programs is, of course, very important, it is the individual efforts of our agents, employees, and retirees that we are most proud of. On any given day in cities and towns across the country, you will find our people tutoring kids in after-school programs, collecting food and clothing for the homeless, or helping to restore and beautify a park. Their selfless actions reflect our value of humanity, and our shared belief that New York Life not only has the ability—but also the responsibility—to help keep the good things going in people's lives and in our communities.

KALAMAZOO - The next two or three days will show how serious gas-station owners are about lowering their prices.
In the past, the Holiday Hike has come anywhere between Tuesday and Thursday before the holiday weekend. With the three-day July 4th holiday coming up, any hike could come within the next few days.
But with the way prices have been dropping for the past two weeks, maybe there isn't a Holiday Hike on its way.
The lowest price in Southwest Michigan is $3.25 at the Rich on Oakland Drive in Kalamazoo along with the dmiral, Meijer and three Speedway stations in the South Westnedge Avenue corridor in Portage and Kalamazoo.
Just to make people envious, the Kroger in Lambertville is the only station in the state below $3, lowering its price on Tuesday to $2.99, according to www.gasbuddy.com.
Also in the South Westnedge Avenue corridor, the Clark is $3.35 and the Shell is $3.42, which is 17 cents higher than stations just two miles to its north on the same street.
In the Portage Road/airport area, the Marathon is $3.32, the Speedway and BP are $3.33 and the Shell is $3.39.
Most of the stations on West Main Street and Stadium Drive are $3.39.
Here are the weekly gas stats from Gasbuddy:
"Average retail gasoline prices in Kalamazoo have fallen 13.3 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.42 per gallon on Monday. This compares with the national average that has fallen 6.5 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.58, according to gasoline price website KalamazooGasPrices.com.
Including the change in gas prices in Kalamazoo during the past week, prices Monday were 58.1 cents per gallon higher than the same day one year ago and are 52.0 cents per gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has decreased 21.0 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 84.0 cents per gallon higher than this day one year ago."
Around Gun Lake:
- $3.49, BP, Patterson Road,
- $3.49, Shell, M-179.

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama – Summertime temperatures won't wait another week until the official start of summer, according to the forecast from the National Weather Service.
North Alabama residents will see the thermometer climb above 90 for the first time in 2014, having reached 90 just twice, on May 31 and Sunday. It should be the hottest week so far this year as daytime temps go above 90 through next June 22.
After a mostly clear night Sunday, with a low around 66, look for mostly sunny skies Monday with a high of 91. Skies will remain clear Monday night with a low around 68.
Tuesday will look just like Monday's forecast, and Tuesday night no different than Monday night.
Wednesday brings a 20-percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after 1 p.m. Otherwise, there should be lots more sunshine, with a high near 92.
The high temperature Sunday was 90, which was 11 degrees cooler than the record set in 1936 and 2 degrees above average. The high temp a year ago was 91.
The sun will rise Monday at 5:33 a.m. and set at 8:02 p.m., bringing 14 hours nearly 29 minutes of daylight. The days will gain another 45 seconds of daylight this week before reaching the longest day of year on Friday.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 17, 2004--EchoStar Communications Corporation (NASDAQ: DISH) announced today that its DISH Network will offer local TV channels by satellite television to the Augusta, Ga., area. The following local TV channels will be available: ABC Ch. 6 (WJBF), CBS Ch. 12 (WRDW), FOX Ch. 54 (WFXG), NBC Ch. 26 (WAGT) and PBS Ch. 14 (WEBA).
This is the first time local TV channels are available on satellite TV in the Augusta area, providing an alternative to local cable TV service. DISH Network now offers local channels as part of its new Digital Home Advantage. Starting at $29.99 per a month, this promotion offers customers free installation for up to four TVs, with no commitment and no hardware to buy and includes more than 60 popular TV channels such as ESPN, Discovery and Nickelodeon, plus local Augusta TV channels.
DISH Network has frozen the lowest all digital TV price through January 2005. Customers can call DISH Network or a local satellite TV retailer to learn how to get a free multi-satellite dish antenna required to receive Augusta-area local channels. DISH Network also provides digital video recording technologies, high definition TV and more than 60 international channels to the Augusta-area.
"The addition of local channels on DISH Network gives customers in the Augusta area a final reason to choose DISH Network over cable," said Eric Sahl, vice president of Programming. "Customers in Augusta and the surrounding area now have more programming and product choices at a better price, with the ability to watch the news, weather and sports that matter most to them."
DISH Network offers local channels via satellite to 18 counties in the Augusta area: Burke, Columbia, Emanuel, Glascock, Jefferson, Jenkins, Lincoln, McDuffie, Richmond, Taliaferro, Warren, Wilkes, Aiken, Allendale, Bamberg, Barnwell, Edgefield and McCormick counties.
With the addition of Augusta, DISH Network offers local channels in 133 cities and their metro areas, in 50 states and in the District of Columbia.
For customers who do not subscribe to Digital Home Advantage, local channels will be available at $5.99 a month.

Really some strange things going on with the channel selections in these new markets, especially in regard to PBS affilates. Why no GA-PBS (WCES/20) available in Augusta--especailly considering that the mother station, WGTV, was supposed to be available on Dish statewide? SC-PBS is available on DIsh from WEBA/14 (Allendale SC) in Augusta, but in Savannah GA-PBS is available while SC-PBS is out of the picture. ANd in Tri-Cities TN-VA, no PBS whatsoever, even though there are two Blue Ridge PBS transmitters in the market, and motherstation WBRA has been on Roanoke locals since day one? Very strange!

Also, why isn't the local upn and wb available for Augusta?

I and many others like me were extremely happy to see the results of the primary election where Sheriff Juan Perez was victorious and will now run in the general election in November for his re-election as sheriff. We are positive that right will win out and he will be re-elected in the November election.
What really bothers me is that there is a lack of support for the sheriff, who is the first Hispanic sheriff ever elected in the state of New Jersey by the so-called Hispanic leaders of our community. Where is United States Sen. Robert Menendez, United States Congressman Albio Sires and the Assembly members, freeholders, council members and all the so-called Hispanic leaders of our community? All of these people should stand up and be counted and support Sheriff Perez, not just because he is Hispanic but because he is proven to be well qualified for the position based on his years of law enforcement experience and his proven record of improving the Sheriff's Office since he took over in 2008.
I know in my heart that in November the good people of Hudson County will be heard, they will proudly enter the voting booth and find the name of Sheriff Juan M. Perez and pull his lever in the machine to continue his good work for the residents of Hudson County.

As we make our way through the holiday season and the end of the year, you have no doubt heard a great deal in the news recently about the impending fiscal cliff and how that will impact our economy locally and nationally.
The prospects seem bleak indeed, and unless our elected leaders in Washington set aside partisanship and reach a compromise on behalf of all of us out here on the fringes, I think we are in for some hard days ahead.
Having said that, I would like to suggest that we consider a new type of economy, or currency, which is basically a new approach to meeting local needs that can be viewed as a type of "community economy."
By its very definition, it is an approach that is designed to be carried out on the neighborhood level among our friends and our neighbors, but it's also something that can break down barriers between people and accomplish a lot of good because it's really about time and relationships.
I'm referring to Edgar Cahn's idea of a "Time Dollar," which is essentially a time-based currency that is traded through a local exchange set up in the community by a church, a local civic group, or perhaps our local vo-tech or community college.
For example, if a retired engineer spends 15 hours tutoring a teenager in math, then that teenager, or perhaps someone else in the exchange, would spend the equivalent amount of time doing yard work in the retired engineer's yard.
Other examples include someone teaching English to a resident who speaks only Spanish, a lawyer providing legal advice to someone in need of counsel, someone else offering rides to those who don't drive, an accountant providing guidance on a financial matter or a seasoned business owner offering assistance to someone starting out. It is a bartering of services and skills rather than "stuff."
My point is that in such an exchange, the accountant's time dollar is the same as that of the unemployed person and the lawyer's time dollar is the same as the guy who stocks shelves at the local supermarket.
Everyone has something they need, whether it's guidance, technical assistance, their lawn cut, a ride, or their snow shoveled, and the whole thing is built on giving back a reciprocal service of some sort in exchange for what is received.
With that in mind, I wonder if there is not a group or an organization in our community willing to set up a Time Dollar Exchange and help start this economy of "reciprocity." We have many people in our community who can provide so many varied services, and at the same time they can have their own needs met as well.
If enough people became part of an exchange, giving their Time Dollar, as well as getting services as they have the need, I believe many things would get accomplished in our city. More than that, it would be something that would strengthen whole neighborhoods through relationships.
If your organization would be willing to take the initiative to set up a Time Dollar Exchange or Bank, please contact me at (856) 455-3230, ext. 200 and leave your name, organization and contact information and I will get back in touch with you to work on the next steps to make this happen.
At a time when so many have been slogging through this weak economy, doing without, perhaps unemployed or underemployed, struggling along and stretching every dollar, having a Time Dollar Bank is a way to set up a local "economy" based on our own community.
Let's use what we have in the best way possible, and build relationships and connections in the best way imaginable.

HAMILTON — A Superior Court jury in Trenton unanimously concluded yesterday that a township man did not try to kill his female friend when he allegedly stabbed her with a knife.
After a two-week trial and several days of deliberation, the jury decided that Kenrick Butler, 58, was not guilty of attempted murder, but it could not reach a verdict on other counts, including aggravated assault and weapons offenses. Judge Mark Fleming released the jury.
Butler was charged after he allegedly stabbed the 35-year-old Pennsylvania woman with whom he had previously had a romantic relationship. The stabbing in December 2010 left the woman with a severe leg wound that required surgery.
Assistant Prosecutor Renee Robeson said she believes the state will proceed further with the remaining charges in the case against Butler. She declined to comment further.
Butler's defense attorneys Rosa Barrecca and Robert Rambadadt said they believe the totality of the evidence presented, specifically the cross-examination of the victim, led to the acquittal.
"Ms. Barrecca was able to debunk many statements (the victim) made," said Rambadadt.
Rambadadt said the victim told police three days after the incident that Butler did not aim for her chest or torso area with the knife and only made an attempt at her leg, which he said is the crux of the attempted murder charge.
"I believe that was a major factor," said Rambadadt.
The defense attorneys said they used photos to recreate the scene so that the jurors could see the inconsistencies with the victim's accounts.
The attorneys for the defense maintained throughout the trial that the incident was an accident. They said the woman was the one who threatened Butler with the knife and, as they struggled for it, Butler fell, the woman fell, and the knife went into the woman's leg.
Investigators found no weapon at Butler's apartment, and the defense attorneys said police did not properly investigate the crime.
Butler is still in jail, but his bail was lowered to $50,000 with the option of paying 10 percent to be released because he no longer faces the most serious charge.
Butler has been in jail for about 20 months. If he posts bail, he is not allowed to have contact with the victim.
The attorneys are expected to return to court in August to determine how to proceed in the case.

The site, one of the last undeveloped gaps in the local region of the ridge, lies between Pennsylvania Audubon's Hawk Viewing Area and the Reineman Wildlife Sanctuary. It is a crucial piece of land on the migration path of several hawk species, and is considered to be a globally important migration point for more than 150 bird species annually.

The Families Afield initiative is a joint effort of sporting and conservation organizations that reduces barriers to new hunters entering the field. The National Wild Turkey Federation, the National Shooting Sports Foundation and the U.S. Sportsmen's Alliance created the program in 2004. To date, Families Afield-style measures have allowed 418,000 new hunters to purchase mentored licenses.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. - The Window Covering Safety Council is reminding parents and caregivers of potential window-cord dangers and urging them to make the right choice and only use cordless window products in homes with young children.
Owners and renters should replace all window coverings in the home made before 2001 with today's safer products.
According to information provided by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, since 1990, more than 200 infants and young children have died from accidentally strangling in window cords.
"Parents who replace their window coverings with the cordless products available can feel more confident about their child's safety," explains Window Covering Safety Council (WCSC) Executive Director Peter Rush.
To maximize window-cord safety when young children are present, consumers are urged to follow these safety guidelines:
‡¤Install only cordless window coverings in homes with young children.
‡¤Replace window blinds, corded shades and draperies manufactured before 2001 with today's safer products.
‡¤Move all cribs, beds, furniture and toys away from windows and window cords, preferably to another wall.
‡¤Keep all window pull cords and inner lift cords out of the reach of children. Make sure that tasseled pull cords are short and continuous-loop cords are permanently anchored to the floor or wall.
‡¤Make sure cord stops are properly installed and adjusted to limit movement of inner lift cords.
‡¤Lock cords into position whenever horizontal blinds or shades are lowered, including when they come to rest on a windowsill.
The Window Covering Safety Council is a coalition of major U.S. manufacturers, importers and retailers of window coverings. Consumers wishing to obtain additional information can contact WCSC at www.windowcoverings.org or its toll-free phone line at 1-800-506-4636.

Descargar Gratis Crash Bandicoot 1 2 3 Ps1 Pc
Crash Bandicoot, was released in the United States in 1996. The game was looked upon in a positive light due to its innovations such as a large number of level themes, the three different types of bonus levels rather than just one, and a number of gameplay elements that do not appear to belong to an integrated whole, such as the awkward face icons. This experimental appearance may have been because the game was a pioneer of a new series, and the developers may have been testing several ideas to see if they would work well in future Crash games.
Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back, was released in the Halloween of 1997, and departed from some of the concepts of the first game, the most notable being the exchange of the Super Mario Bros. 3-esque map screen for a group of hub rooms called warp rooms with each containing five levels, which follow the same straightforward layout of the first game, and one boss. It introduced the concept of gathering crystals, which became a staple for later games. It has overall been better received than its predecessor, in part because it allowed the user to save game progress any time while in the central area (warp room). In the first game, this was only possible after successful completion of a bonus level.
Exactly one year later, Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped introduced more new concepts, including a time trial mode, being able to play as Coco, and new moves that can be obtained after a boss is defeated. The game was also the first in the series to use the then-new DualShock controller, with the rumble effect being used frequently in the game. The game is still considered the pinnacle of the series today, being named one of the best platformers of all time.
Algunos juegos viejos (publicados antes del 6 de Abril) han sido borrados por las paginas de compartir. Esto no es culpa nuestra. A veces la compañía que crea el juego se queja y hace que se borren los archivos.
