Mayor Opposes New Tax Breaks For Hotel
Mayor Stephanie A. Miner announced today she is opposed to any new public tax benefits for the planned Destiny hotel.
Last week, Mayor Miner and County Executive Joanie Mahoney received a letter from Destiny signaling their intent to build a 252 room hotel. Destiny indicated it would be seeking new tax breaks from the Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency (OCIDA). The Mayor said Destiny officials are seeking an 18-year payment in lieu of taxes deal exempting the developer from County and City taxes on the new hotel. The new exemption would cost taxpayers approximately $20 million in tax revenue.
Miner said today she believes any hotel construction to support the mall should be privately financed. She said the hotel should not receive public funds at a time when the City is searching for funds to fill police vacancies and address costly infrastructure issues.
Miner pointed out the Destiny project has already received an unprecedented tax break totaling hundreds of millions in lost revenue to the City and County. Destiny received a 30 year break on local taxes after it promised to build a LEED Platinum, 39-story, 1,342- room "Emerald 5 ShowTel and Conference Center." Eighteen months ago, Destiny declared the project complete. Destiny had said while they would not be building the hotel or the other amenities it promised, they were still legally entitled to its 30 year PILOT.
"Destiny already has received an unprecedented tax break worth hundreds of millions of tax dollars for promising, among other things, a bigger hotel," said Mayor Stephanie A. Miner. "They should not receive additional benefits for a project they failed to deliver. Most importantly, the community will not receive any material benefits for incenting a hotel next to a successful mall."

Made by Gund, designer of cherished stuffed toys since 1898, this is the soft plush dog that snores and talks in his sleep. Like most Basset hounds, this cuddly canine can snooze away a whole day, and a squeeze of his back paw sets him snoring. His tail wags and his backside and dewlap vibrate with each rumbling breath. In between snoring jags, the floppy-eared playmate sleep talks through six different doggy dreams, reciting humorous phrases such as "you'll never figure out where I buried that slipper," and "bacon-cheese kibble burger!" in a comical canine voice. His soft plush coat can be spot cleaned. Ages 3 and up. Includes three AA batteries. 13" L x 8" W x 5" H. (8 oz.)

Great Toy!

Good bedtime toy for kids. So cute and cuddly. Funny.
A Total Charmer!!!
By dlm tucson
from Tucson, AZ
This animated dog may charm the "uncharmable". Funny comments, pleasing voice, and runs an appropriate amount of time. I don't think you would be sorry adding him to your home. The only thing to be aware of is the battery casing area is, of course, plastic and could potentially damage something or a little one if flung around. It is covered in fur, though, so it is somewhat cushioned.

The perfect hound dog!!
By Grammy
from Rockwall, Tx
I bought this for my adult niece who is building a house in a country setting. She has said she wanted a hound dog that laid on the back porch and slept all day. When I saw this in the catalog I thought this is the perfect gift for her. She loved it as did her teenage children. It is really soft and his whole body moves as he sleeps, tail wags, back rises as he breathes and flappy face flaps. His talking dreams are really funny. We all had a ball with him. Adorable!!
It was the hit of Christmas Eve.

I sense that we are at the start of a new era of entrepreneurial zeal such as the one that transformed Silicon Valley three decades ago. And I believe that one area of the economy that will be transformed by this new wave of innovation will be my field, healthcare.
Today, the U.S. does not have a healthcare system. Instead we have disconnected hospitals, clinics, labs and pharmacies that produce redundant and error-prone care.
Take as an example that point in time when a recovering patient leaves the hospital and goes home for continuing treatment. Many current transition-of-care processes are complex, confusing and cumbersome. My mother recently fractured her hip, and I found myself serving as her healthcare advocate, home care coordinator and general contractor. The market is ripe for products that make care management and coordination easier. And there is reason to be optimistic that the conditions are in place to bring energy and enthusiasm to such healthcare needs.

Alexandre Roux
Alexandre Roux, cabinetmaker
French; American, fl. 1837-1881
Cabinet, ca. 1866
Rosewood, light and dark wood marquetry, ebonized and gilt trim, porcelain, and gilt bronze
111.8 x 130.8 x 48.3 cm (44 x 51 1/2 x 19 inches)
Jesse Metcalf Fund 78.052
This cabinet provided a focal point for a formal drawing room and was probably intended to support bronze or marble statuary. Panels of floral marquetry, gilt bronze capitals and trim, and a painted Sèvres porcelain plaque ornament this lofty piece. Because of its angularity, heavy proportions, and contrasting dark and light woods, this cabinet falls within the Victorian era's eclectic Renaissance Revival style. American cabinets of this type are attributable to a host of French émigré cabinetmakers in New York City, among them Alexandre Roux, whose label appears on the cabinet's back.

In my application, earlier I had only one user. Now I am to add various users. And each user should login to view his/her details. That is each page should be authentic to a user.
In the database tables also, only in one table containing Login details, I have the parameter Login_ID. Rest no where it is there. In my stored procedures I have added Login_ID. But now at this point when I run the code, it shows an exception at every stage saying that Login_ID is required.
How shall I pass Login_ID in the pages? Pl help me...resolve this issue...
Apr 13, 2012 01:36 AM|coolpal9|LINK
Pl pl pl somebody help me out in resolving this issue. This is the most important part in the project.
Apr 13, 2012 01:36 AM|prabhuvincent|LINK
You can Maintain LoginID across the page using Session.
Session["LoginID"] = "SomeUserID";
Apr 13, 2012 01:37 AM|coolpal9|LINK
"SomeUserID" means what?
Apr 13, 2012 02:17 AM|coolpal9|LINK
Ok got it! Thanks!
Apr 13, 2012 02:46 AM|coolpal9|LINK
You can Maintain LoginID across the page using Session.
Session["LoginID"] = "SomeUserID";
It worked when I used Login_Name insstead.
But now I am facing a different problem. Since I made changes in the stored procedures also, now wherever I was getting the values fetched from the tables, I am not able to get them fetched.
What shall I do now?
Can you pl help me out...
Apr 13, 2012 06:59 AM|prabhuvincent|LINK
Sorry I am Not Able to get your question.
Could you pls elabourate
Apr 13, 2012 07:35 AM|coolpal9|LINK
Actually the SPs in which I made changes were to fetch certain values from the database tables, by inner joining the Login table with the concerned tables.
But now from when I have passed Session["Login_Name"] to the aspx pages, none of the SPs are working i.e they donot fetch values from database.
What shall I do?
When I started with this project, I didnot pass any Login info to any of the pages, but for Login page. Now, I have to add users in my project, so that each user logs in and does his work. Its like maintaining his/her account.
Apr 13, 2012 07:46 AM|prabhuvincent|LINK
It seems You are Trying to authenticate .
User Will Enter his/her credentails.
1) First Page you are authenticating the user. Maintain the user ID in Session State.
2) Now In the Second page somevariable = Session["Login_Name"];
3)Now In that Pass somevariable as an Input Parameter to SP.
4)Fetch the User Information.
Hope it makes sense

Grandhotel Pupp
Mirove Namesti, 2A, Carlsbad, Carlsbad Region
0.2 km from
It was cold in our room. We had two small blankets. The have to use a big blanket for such a big bed. The hairdrying model is too old. It must be changed with the modern model with the higher capacity.
The hotel is the "Stara dama" (the old lady) among hotels. Such a luxurious history is rarely seen in hotels. This is the only hotel in Karlovy Vary that i would return to. It is not modernised and recuperated but it was my honor being its guest for a while. It was the end of season so hotel was kind of empty. Karlovy Vary also. We were generally dissapointed with a Karlovy Vary offerings. We thought this town is a spa center of Czech republic, but there are no pools and world of sauna anywhere or very poor content.Though sociologically very interesting town.
location, comfort in need of renovation in main public areas
Staff were great, very helpful and friendly, although language is not their greatest point. They could do with some more training in many respects but I feel they are on the right track. They call themselves a 5-star hotel. This is highly overrated. The building is beautiful and well preserved, but the breakfast (this is merely an exemple) is more 3-star, the food in the restaurant not great and someone ought to tell them that "nouvelle cuisine" is not hot anymore. Wellnes area is too small for a hotel this size, and there is no pool! The entire hotel could do with a proper airing; it smells...
Location was great. Room was spacious and very well appointed. Staff was helpful. All in all, a very good choice.
o ambiente the Becher Bar had a funny smell...
The service in the grand dining room and in the main bar
simply perfect
Very luxurios hotel with large rooms. Excellent hotel Internet is limited and cost. Internet should be free. I think it is unacceptable for a 5 star hotel to charge for this.
The breakfast is excellent and the room is really big and comfortable which is really good for vacation. Free wifi should be offered by the hotel.
service,great food and breakfast,room was large,lovely dining room
Great room, friendly staff and good location. Nothing wrong with the decor for me, stayed in superior double room which was huge and very nice. Had problems with parking space that I reserved, staff tried to help but obviously limited in what they can do when someone else parks in it.
Room was very nice, the breakfast was wonderful. We were not able to have coffee or drinks in the evenings on the patio in front of the hotel. It was closed after 10.
The staff were very attentive. Good location, good breakfast. Price
breakfests and friendly receptions I'd like more russian TV programs
Restarant, breakfast, Location, atmosphere very little lobby.
Poblem with parking. I would reccomend to give more information about parking possibilities. Anyway, staff was very helpful in solving the problem
Location and comfort of the stay.
Central location, cleanliness of the hotel, friendly staff in reception. The massage was a bad experience. Unfriendly, unprofessional.
The architecture of this hotel perfectly fits in the environment of the famous spa town of Karlovy Vary. I also liked the restaurant an the buffet breakfast.
Rooms needs to be renewed. It is 4 * Hotel but just the external side and restaurant.
No a la carte restaurant on the Satrurday night. They had a private function so they only offered a buffet. Not acceptable in a 5 star hotel.
Very smiling staff
Pleasant athmosphere, surroundings and appearance of the hotel and hotel facilities. Good quality standard. Nostalgic charme of the place in Karlovy Vary. The indifferent and reluctant friendliness of some staff members and lacking committment to guest services, which does not reflect the over all impression of the Hotel
We were given a lot of attention. We felt like royalty. Breakfast was really good and the assortment of teabags, coffee and chocolate in the room was very welcoming! I didn't like the fact that we had to pay upon arrival.
I was really impress with the SPA facilities, well equiped, clean, luxury,...etc.
Nothings Staff, Food, location
I liked the classy atmosphere and the perfect staff. The hotel was a great value for money and I would love to go back there again. Impeccable cleanliness, very nice location among romantic villas in a pleasant green part of town (5 min to center). Good facilities.
Luxurious design of hall and restaurant areas, beautiful SPA with endless facilities, free parking, helpful (and Russian-speaking!) staff, breakfast with good variety can't find anything
They took all money when I checked in. I was not be informed no hot water avairable in poor. Allmost all staff dose not speak English. Their behaviar was inpolite.
The location just couldn't be beat for the price. The breakfast was great, staff very friendly, rooms and bathrooms huge...really decent hotel. This is not a 4-star hotel. I've stayed at a 4-star Hilton in the middle of London...this is not the same, though still good. They forgot the towels in our room and we only figured that out when we got out of the shower. The double bed was two win beds pushed together (normal for Europe), but they weren't hooked together, so all night the beds just slid apart. We tried to fix it but the bed was actually broken. Also, with two of the hotel staff I had to switch to German to be able to communicate effectively. "Free WiFi" did not exist, the hotel said that in Czech, the website would read something like "free internet with cable," but the English version led to me bringing my iPad and iPhone and not being able to get a stitch of the web
The staff was very friendly. I did not take anything, but the drinks in the room bar were very cheap. A fantastic breakfast!
everything is pefect. It's a very nice choice for us. nothing
very centrally located, friendly, small hotel the only thing is that it is difficult to approach with car, as it is surrounded by walking streets
Great value. We particularly liked the elegant simplicity of the place. There wasn't any gawdy bad art or junk everywhere like K.V. is full of. Comfortable. Very clean. Good taste. The staff were very helpful. I also can't complain about the breakfast, because we always got there late and missed a lot of the good stuff - but always managed to fill up nicely. Bathroom and shower were great too. And the location is incredibly convenient.
The room was spacious, spotless and comfortable; hotel was right in the historic center of Karlovy Vary, within walking distance of sights and activities, all for a very reasonable price. We went there specifically for the FIBA womens basketball championships and especially appreciated the refrigerator in the room, the room internet access (not wireless), the filling breakfasts, and the helpfulness of the staff, despite our unfamiliarity with the Czech language. If returning to KV, would definitely stay there again. Parking was called "difficult" in reviews but they did not make clear the near impossibility of driving a car to the hotel, even to check in. The historic center of KV is largely a pedestrian mall. Once we arrived, the parking arranged by the hotel was fine - a few minutes' walk away. But finding our way there the first time (by car) was stressful and time-consuming, even with a map; specific arrival instructions would have made a huge difference, even if the instruction was "park your car at this location and walk to the hotel by this route."
Design of room and dining hall. Airy, fresh and minimalictic, which is up to my taste. Breakfast is impeccable considering hotel size and budget. Location is superb. Only one flaw, there is no WiFi. 2 small warnings. If you are an early bird like me - breakfast starts quite late. The place doesn't have 'a view', rear rooms are facing hill, front rooms are facing street.
everything was perfect, breakfast is very nice
The staff was very curtious and helpful. We were able to have a very late checkout because the hotel was not full, which was very nice. The hotel is in an excellent location, comfortable, clean, and the staff very helpful and friendly. We did not like the parking arrangement - it's not comfortable, but there is really nothing the hotel could do about it.
Very nice view, spacious room, quiet.
Very nice hotel vith free parking near centr of city. The hot springs galery is very nearby, 2 minutes if you go slowly.
Big light number with completely equipped kitchen, washing and сушильной by machines. The affable personnel, the convenient free-of-charge parking, a convenient site, the good price To diversify breakfasts.
We felt very well in this hotel,the staff was very frendly and gave us a lot of good advice about the resort,breakfast ok,all the facility in the room.
Very good position and good view, good sound isolation, friendly staff, free parking! Breakfast qould be better!
good location, friendly reception, big room and free internet a little bit too expensive
Good location, very clean and spacious rooms. Nice atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff.
The room was clean, well decorated, large, comfortable, and had a beautiful view. Breakfast was good and it was nice to have parking.
it was great staying in this hotel. we had a corner room that had 3 huge windows and a nice view. good breakfast. great location. great value for money..
The room was amazing. It was big and had lots of drawers to put our clothes away. The view was amazing. Would have like to have complimentary tea & coffee.
good treatments too expensive for such level of hotels ( smal uncomfortobl singl roms, )
The restaurant is good . The reception service and staff are not qualified enough , not cooporative and not welcoming .
Location - very close to promenades and shops. In 4 star hotel I would expect tea bags/coffee & kettel in the room and also iron. The hotel bar closed at 10pm on Friday night.
This is a lovely hotel in a beautiful location. You must take advantage of the spa facilities. The breakfast is very good and the hotel staff speak english and are very attentive. Thank you for looking after me!
Nice. Sleeping should improve
Great wellness area. I don't like Moscow prices for oil & gas kings. I would recommend stay here if you only don't know what else you can do with your money...
spa/relax Unfriendly atmosphare - it should have been luxury but turned up to be just spending too much money for nothing we could not have got other places. The food was not at all worth the prices
really very friendly staff that care about the clients/great location and quiet/big and comfortable rooms/beautyful spa with "sauna village" nothing, that I didn't like about the hotel, but not too many restaurants around the city, people seem to eat at their hotels
The convenience of the spa treatment and the location of the hotel in the town of Karlovy Vary Bedroom 416 was quite small for the price
Very friendly personnel, amazing room, very spacious and clean. Cool elevator. A great variety in breakfast. Location is perfect in middle of centre. Drinks in mini bar were outdated.
Big specious room Very poor breakfast, not for 4 star hotel. Staff at the reception in the evening was not very friendly. Pure 3 stars hotel, not 4.
Good location, service good, with a priceworthy first class restaurant! We would like to have total service at the outdoor restaurant, which had the best location and did not use it.
It's a nice little hotel, with great location and a very good breakfast. The room was clean. On the first day the receptionist was not very polite. However, all other hotel stuff were polite, helpful and friendly. The swimming pool is tiny and the sauna was not working.
Everything. All the staff were excellent without exception, the restaurant is one of the best in the Czech Republic, the location is very central for walking everywhere, and when we had to leave at 5 am the last morning, the night clerk had packed two breakfasts for us!
A combination of the room, the staff, the Wellness centre and the restaurant meant that we had very little motivation to leave the hotel even though the pedestrian area with shopping and the famous spa waters were just outside. Book early for the restaurant, it is not to be missed. Reconstruction of the pedestrian area adjacent to the hotel will continue at least to the end of 2010 - if you are going during the week ask for a room at the rear of the hotel away from the early morning noise. At the weekend there was no work being done.
The Hotel was stylish, clean and cosy, the staff was very friendly and helpful. Nothing
Staff were fluent in many languages and very friendly. Valet Parking. Restaurant excellent
Good location, service good, with a priceworthy first class restaurant! We would like to have total service at the outdoor restaurant, which had the best location and did not use it.
A very comfortable period hotel with a first class dining restaurant. The hotel is centrally located in the historic center of Carlsbad The hotel is difficult to reach by car and there are extensive street improvement works underway immediately outside.
Central location. Sophisticated restaurant. Valet service taking car to/from the underground garage. (Temporary) roadworks on the street outside (fortunately the workmen don't work weekends, which was when we were there). Car had to be delivered to the hotel door by a member of staff, entailing an approx 10 min wait unless you had the foresight to pre-order it.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That in order to provide financial assistance to Menominee County, Wisconsin, for a transitional period after April 30, 1961, the Secretary of the Interior is authorized, notwithstanding anything contained in the Menominee Indian Termination Act of June 17, 1954 (68 Stat. 250), as amended (25 U. S. C. 891-902), and the proclamation of the Secretary of the Interior pursuant thereto dated April 26, 1961 (26 Fed. Reg. 3726), to make grants either to the State of Wisconsin for distribution to the County or Town of Menominee or directly to said county or town, for contributions to joint school district costs, in not more than the following amounts:
(a) during the year ending April 30, 1962, $220,000;
(b) during the year ending April 30, 1963, 80 per centum of the amount aforesaid;

amount aforesaid;
(d) during the year ending April 30, 1965, 40 per centum of the amount aforesaid;
(e) during the year ending April 30, 1966, 20 per centum of the amount aforesaid.
Any grant made under this section shall be made only upon such written assurances relating to control and supervision by responsible State officials to insure that the grant is used for the purpose intended as the Secretary may require. No grant shall serve to diminish the amounts which the County or Town of Menominee is entitled to receive from the State as provided by its laws, except so far as such diminution arises from treating the grants as if they were taxes raised by said county or town for purposes of determining what amounts, if any, the State is required to pay to said county and town under its laws.
The Surgeon General of the Public Health Service, Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, is authorized to construct under the Act of July 31, 1959 (73 Stat. 267, 42 U. S. C. 2004a), such sanitation facilities on the former Menominee Reservation as he finds are reasonble and justified and to expend for this purpose not more than $438,000. The authority granted by this section shall expire at the end of fiscal year 1965.
There are authorized to be appropriated such sums, not in excess of $1,098,000, as are required to carry out the provisions of this Act.
Approved, April 4, 1962.

Lisa de Moraes The Washington Post
William Shatner as Captain Kirk, first lady Michelle Obama as Jack Nicholson's partner, Halle Berry as the Chrysler Building, Seth MacFarlane as host.
TV critics may have hated Sunday's 85th Academy Awards, but 40.3 million viewers lapped it up, making it the most watched entertainment program on TV in nearly three years.
Even more important to broadcaster ABC: The Oscarcast scored a nearly three-year record among viewers between the ages of 18 and 49, who are the currency of TV ad sales.
In particular, the network boasted the show's 34 percent year-to-year ratings spike among 18-to-34-year-old men, who are the elusive unicorns of the ad world. The broadcast attracted 13 percent of the country's 18-to-49-year-olds.
History will credit MacFarlane, whose success at reaching that young-guy group with animated TV shows has made him a darling at Fox as well as at NBCUniversal, which distributed his like-minded box-office hit, "Ted."
In truth, the age of the audience has a lot more to do with the movies in the running for best picture — and six of this year's nine best-picture nominees topped $100 million in box office by Sunday's ceremony.
The motion picture academy has been desperately trying to lure young viewers back to the trophy show, which led to the disastrous 2011 program when Anne Hathaway and James Franco co-hosted the show.
They wound up doing worse with viewers their age than did oldsters Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin the previous year.
And the most successful Oscars ceremony of the past decade among young viewers was the 2004 show; it attracted 15.3 percent of the country's 18-to-49-year-olds.
That year's host: Billy Crystal, and that year's winning movie: "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King."

The Maritime Archaic people who lived roughly 3,200 to 8,000 years ago in the Canadian Eastern Subarctic were living on the edge: the edge of inhabitable landscapes as the glaciers retreated; the borders of the earth as it disappeared into the cold North Atlantic waters; and the outer limits of human population on the North American continent.
In the early part of their occupation of the coasts of Labrador, there were no other people to their north or east; they were on the border of the known world and were voyagers into that unknown. Read more.

Photos: Gay marriages resume in Los Angeles County following Supreme Court ruling
It was just after 7 a.m. Monday, and Darletta and Judy Horn were at the front of the line forming outside the Los Angeles County Registrar's Office in Norwalk, dancing the fox trot to a boombox recording of "The Way You Look Tonight."
About an hour later, the longtime domestic partners signed their application, paid their fee and became the first in a long line of same-sex couples to get a marriage license after last week's historic court rulings reinstated their right to wed.
To the cheers of the dozens of other couples waiting their turn inside the Registrar's Office, the Long Beach women waved their newly issued license overhead as Darletta declared, "This is the best $100 I ever spent!"
Monday was a big day for gay and lesbian couples throughout California, after the U.S. Supreme Court last week overturned the state's Proposition 8, and a federal appeals court lifted a stay on same-sex marriages.
"I never thought I'd see this -- not in my lifetime," said Darletta, who plans to marry her partner of 30 years in a ceremony this weekend in Northern California.
Those lined up Monday were not the very first gay couples to get married in California after the appeals court decision -- a few select couples in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Long Beach were wed on Friday and over the weekend -- but they were the first since the process was made widely available.
Anticipating a crush of same-sex couples, Registrar-Recorder Dean Logan extended hours at the Norwalk office until 7 p.m. Monday and tonight and increased the number of clerks available to process the paperwork. Branch offices will hold pre-scheduled civil ceremonies this Wednesday and will add a day each week when weddings will be held.
Logan estimated that 500 online license applications were completed over the weekend.
After nervously waiting for their license application to be processed, Teri Luce, 51, and Kim Holtz, 49, of Long Beach, headed to the seventh floor of the Norwalk building, where five makeshift "chapels" hastily decorated with tissue-paper wedding bells had been set up for those who didn't want to wait for the ceremony.
The utilitarian space took on a cozy intimacy as the two mouthed "I love you" to one another before they exchanged rings and Deputy Commissioner Damon Anastasia declared them joined in marriage.
"We've been waiting to get married," said Luce. "And we just decided last night to do it."
Attired in wedding finery, Amy and Lorelei Trangsrud of Pasadena stood out from the rest of the same-sex couples who arrived in their summer-casual shorts and sandals. Lorelei wore the bridal gown she purchased for the couple's commitment ceremony in 2010, while Amy wore a suit, complete with celery green vest and tie.
They had a big day planned -- a wedding ceremony at a church in Los Feliz, wedding photos on the beach at sunset and a romantic dinner at a seaside restaurant.
"I'm glad we can be part of history in the making," said Lorelei, 32. "I'm glad we don't have to wait a lifetime for someone to love."
During a special ceremony at Harvey Milk Park in Long Beach, Mayor Bob Foster presided over the wedding of Bob Crow, co-founder of Long Beach Gay & Lesbian Pride, and his partner of 18 years, Tony Almeida.
"We have been trying to get married for years," Crow said.
San Bernardino County saw its share of activity, including Sue Fusselman, 66, and Roann Kidd, 62, who drove from Redlands, and were the first couple to get married.
The couple -- who both wore Hawaiian shirts for the occasion -- had been waiting 21 years for the opportunity to wed.
They thought about getting married several years ago before Proposition 8 passed, but assumed California voters would not approve it.
"We were very, very upset when Prop. 8 was passed," Fusselman said.
In West Hollywood, local officials were temporarily deputized to perform same-sex weddings in pristine white tents erected outside City Hall. Relatives and friends joined many of the couples for the festivities.
West Hollywood City Councilman John Duran said that wasn't the case in 2008, when he performed about 100 same-sex weddings during the six-month window when same-sex marriage was allowed.
"During the 'Summer of Love,' there was a great urgency because we knew Proposition 8 was on the ballot," he said. "A lot of couples rushed to get married because they were afraid the voters would take it away."
Among those who exchanged vows were Paul Mejia, 78, and David Barney, 70, both military veterans from Santa Monica. They've been together for 43 years.
"We'd wanted to legalize our partnership for a lot of financial reasons," Mejia said.
"And we wanted the same rights as everybody else," Barney added.
"Now, we're fully citizens of the United States," Mejia said. "I've served in the Army. I've served on juries. I've done all the duties that were required of me. I'm due this license."

Ratings for Dr. Flora Treger
I don't know what I would do if she ever retires! I would miss her! She's compassionate, caring, very knowledgeable, thorough, spends time with you ... I can't say enough good things about her! She's fabulous!
Truly the most caring, warm and knowledgeable doctor I have ever met. I have NEVER in today's world know a doc who makes house visits, but Dr. Treger does. I wish there were more people like her in the medical profession.
Always listens to me. Never makes me feel rushed. Not always on time, but that's probably because she's giving her other patients the same excellent care she gives me.
dr treger is wonderful.she is so comforting and down to earth.her examinations are are thorough. she is very easy to talk to,and at one's appt. she never rushes you. she asks questions and listens intently. she is a wonderful dr. and a wonderful person. i trust her judgement. if a pt. calls to ask a question, she always calls you back and listens and talks to you in conversation and refers or adivses. she never talks so you don't understand what she is saying. she is wonderful.
Dr,Treger is amazing! I totally owe my mom's life/good health to her. She found the tiniest lump which ended up being breast cancer and referred my mom to a specialist immediately and now everything is okay. She doesn't pretend to know everything and immediately gets you directly to someone who does. She is so kind and down to earth I feel so comfortable talking to her about anything. Dr. Treger is a great woman!
Dr Treger may not have been familiar with the tests one pt mentioned, however, I have never known her not to refer to specialist who would be familiar or investigate the information herself. She is always there for questions, compassion and in my opinion knowledge. She is absolutely the best consummate doc in the universe. I would rather have a doctor admit s/he does not know an answer and investigate it than give some bogus answer or say the test is not related to given situation when s/he has no real clue. Dr Treger ROCKS!!!!!!
Dr. Treger is brilliant and kind. I feel so taken care of by her. I trust that she knows what I need, and I appreciate that she takes the time to ask, and listen, to see how I am doing, in all areas of my life. I talk to her about my family, my job, my worries, as well as my aches and pains. Sometimes her caring attitude has brought me to tears . Although her office moved, I drive 50 minutes to go there. I never have to wait long, and the parking is great. The office staff is cheerful and good natured, but professional as well.
Dr. Treger and her colleagues (4 women in the office, I think) specialize in Women's Internal Medicine. She always takes time to talk with me; NEVER have I felt rushed. Careful to run and double check tests (thorough) to a fault. Usually returns calls at the end of the day. Even after I moved I continue to drive nearly an hour to keep her as my doc. Last, the ONLY reason I gave her 4 instead of 5 on knowledgeable is b/c I've mentioned some newer tests I read about in magazines and she's not familar with them--maybe they're not very common yet.

Iran's Guardian Council announced yesterday that former president Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani has been barred from Iran's presidency poll—reportedly due to his old age and debilitating health. In recent weeks, speculation over a Rafsanjani comeback bid had spurred some optimism among Iranians who recognize that their broken economy desperately needed a jolt. Some Iranian voters have described him as a "master of the economy" and the solution to their economic woes. However, a closer look at Iran's misery index shows just how fatally flawed this perception is.
There is little doubt that the economic policies of current president Mahmoud Ahmadenijad have been a disaster. Even before the United States and European Union imposed economic sanctions over Iran's nuclear program, Iran's economy was hardly in good shape.
For decades, the Iranian economy has been cobbled together by a coalition of conservative clerics and Revolutionary Guard commanders. The resulting bureaucratic monstrosity has employed mandates, regulations, price controls, subsidies, a great deal of red tape, and a wide variety of other interventionist devices. Not surprisingly, Iran ranks near the bottom—145th out of 183 countries—in the World Bank's Doing Business 2013 Ranking, which measures the vitality of free markets and the ease of doing business.
You might wonder, with all this sand in the gears, how has the Iranian economy been able to sustain itself and grow (until recently)? The answer is—you guessed it—oil.

The London 2012 artistic director Danny Boyle and the 007 star were given access to film at Buckingham Palace.
Buckingham Palace has been quick to remind news organisations of this fact.
Yesterday, the media were supposed to be focused on the stuffy royal luncheon at Buckingham Palace.
Even the queen saw fit to honor him with the Order of the British Empire at Buckingham Palace in 2008.
In 1483 Buckingham raised a rebellion but it failed and he was executed.
Large sums of money were also distributed to Buckingham, Arlington, and Clifford.
The lunch at Buckingham Palace was an entirely friendly affair.
Even the Howards exercised no control; and the most powerful of all, the Duke of Buckingham, was suddenly brought to the block.
Carr was succeeded in the royal favor by Duke of Buckingham.
It was Buckingham, greatly daring, who slyly made himself that party's mouthpiece.

Ragtime was as sophisticated as Stravinsky, Van Vechten asserted, blues singer Clara Smith as sublime an artist as any opera diva.
Composers from Monteverdi to Gluck, to Stravinsky, to Philip Glass, have told it in music.
Stravinsky is sociable and direct; he writes simply for the enjoyment of player and hearer alike.
Stravinsky almost did this in The Nightingale but the break must be more complete.
So, if it is inexact to say that Stravinsky writes Jazz, it is true to say that his genius has been nourished by it.
By this road we lead on to Stravinsky, Casella, and Malipiero.
Stravinsky is new; is he therefor to be considered worse than Liszt?
Stravinsky is a new man not to be slighted, nor are Kodaly and Bartok.
When we played the Stravinsky pieces here, for instance, his Pétrouschka and Firebird had not yet been heard.
Stravinsky's music is a good deal less bewildering now than it was five years ago.

Police Crackdown Continues As Remaining Bomb Suspects Remains Elusive
Click here for more photos from the manhunt
(Watertown, MA) -- Police are swarming the Boston suburb of Watertown in an effort to find the sole remaining suspect in the marathon bombings. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is still on the run after the death of his brother Tamerlan in a shootout overnight. Their uncle is calling on Dzhokhar to surrender and beg for forgiveness. He added that he views the bombings as an atrocity and that the two brothers have brought shame to his family.
Residents of Watertown reported hearing screeching tires, roaring engines, gunshots and explosions as the two suspects led police in a rolling gun battle last night. Tamerlan Tsarnaev suffered fatal wounds and was pronounced dead at a hospital.

EDMONDS — The Preserve at Meadowdale Beach is a 50-home neighborhood located next to Meadowdale Beach Park. Residents are a short walk from beach hikes, picnics, views and sunsets over Puget Sound.
"We are excited to present this premier new-home community," says Heather Andreini, the listing agent for The Preserve at Meadow-dale Beach. "We offer a winning combination of a perfect location, exciting home plans and plenty of luxury features."
Built by Pacific Ridge Homes, the homes are available in four-, five- and six-bedroom configurations, and have up to 3,662 square feet of living space. Buyers can choose from nine home plans and a variety of standard features and amenities.
"We've included some of our most popular home plans, including the Chelan II," Andreini says. "This unique home features two master suites — one on the main floor and another upstairs.
"Pacific Ridge has also differentiated this community by offering its highest level of included features and amenities. Gourmet kitchens feature slab granite counters, stainless steel appliances and double ovens. LED lighting is also prominent throughout the main living spaces in every home."
Outdoor living spaces have covered concrete patios with skylights, as well as full landscaping and fenced yards.
"We wanted to give buyers [at The Preserve at Meadowdale Beach] the luxury upgrades and amenities that seem to fit well in this area. Pacific Ridge has included all of the stops," Andreini says.
Pacific Ridge is offering a financing plan at The Preserve at Meadowdale Beach that allows buyers to save up to 10 percent on their monthly payments if they work with the builder's preferred lending partners.
A zero-mortgage-insurance option and $2,500 credit for closing costs are also available through the same lenders.
"This unique offer can translate into as much as a $285 savings in a buyer's monthly payment," Andreini says. "It will also allow them to qualify for a higher mortgage amount because of the lower monthly payment."
Two newly furnished model homes are open daily for tours, along with a fully staged home for sale. There are move-in-ready homes available in all nine floor plans.
"Luxury homes, walking distance to the beach, great schools and outstanding shopping options make The Preserve at Meadowdale Beach a wonderful place to call home," Andreini says.
The community is located close to shopping, dining and entertainment options at Alderwood Mall. Downtown Edmonds is also nearby and offers unique shops, restaurants and galleries.

Size & Fit Details
Arabelle dress in silk chiffon
Arabelle dress in silk chiffon is rated out of 5 by 16.
Rated 4 out of 5 by blmueller from Overall, very pleased! I am a size 10/12 and I originally ordered the 10. It fit perfectly around the waist but was way too tight in the bust. I returned it with no problems and they sent a 12 and it fits much better. The dress must have been in a box or packaging a little too long because it was very wrinkly and definitely needs to be sent to the dry cleaner to fix the wrinkle problem. Overall, very pleased! A very flattering dress.

Rated 1 out of 5 by choward from Disappointed So I needed this dress for Homecoming and ordered it a few weeks in advanced, but accidentally got the wrong size. When I sent it back and I got a new size, the zipper completely fell apart. This is a Jcrew dress, it should not fall apart in my hands. I literally zipped it up and the dress undid. Because it was a day before the dance I had no time to get another one, I had to get the dress fixed. I got it sewn up at the local cleaners. I was extremely disappointed that Jcrew would send such an unreliable, broken product. I will not recommended ordering dresses from Jcrew to anyone because of this dress.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Carie from bridesmaid dress Dress is nice and lightweight, perfect for a Florida wedding!! I was surprised to find that the dress was waaayyy too big. I don't shop at J. Crew because in the past I found that all the clothes were made to run super small. When I found out I had to buy a dress from your website for a wedding without trying it on first, I immediately thought "I have to buy a few sizes larger." At any other store, I am typically a size 10-12 dress size, so I bought a size 16 (to be safe). Too big!! I will be exchanging it for a smaller size, but I really do wish you sold bridesmaid dresses at a local store so they can be tried on in person. I'm not 100% confident that the size 12 will fit (I think it's going to be too small) but there are no more size 14 available online.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Mags from Horrible! The zipper on the original dress was broken so I had to send it back just a month before the wedding I was supposed to wear it in. After I got the new dress, I had no time for alterations, good thing it fit because I was only sent one of the sizes I ordered! The day of the wedding another bridesmaid had the zipper on her dress break just like my dress. Neither were too small, just poor quality. No bride wants the stress of one of her bridesmaids needing to be sewn into her dress! It was a horrible experience! I will never use JCREW for bridesmaid dresses again.
Date published: 2014-09-17
Rated 1 out of 5 by Annoyed from Not for athletes This dress was extremely small in the breast area. Also I am 6' and the dress was way to short for me. It is a beautiful dress. I would not recommend it for taller women.

WATCH: French Montana & Khloe Kardashian Discuss Relationship In First-Ever Joint Interview
Listen to French Montana Radio on iHeartRadio
(Power 105.1 FM) - French Montana and Khloe Kardashian joined Power 105.1's Angie Martinez for their first interview together. Angie got them to open about their relationship (among other things) and it got juicy!
Listen to Angie Martinez on iHeartRadio
For starters, French credits Diddy as the source of their love connection.
"Khloe cool as hell, man. It was Puff. Puff was the one that put us together. I was like Puff –I forgot how it went.
"It was me, Gabby, Ross, Puff, Meek. Everybody was in the studio. Scott [Disick, Kourtney's husband] was there. Scott was drunk. I was like I got a party tomorrow and everybody was like we all coming. She [Khloe Kardashian] was like 'Hell yeah, I wanna go.' Next day Puff was like 'hit her' to come to the party.
"We end up not going to the party. We just end up chillin'. But nah, she cool peoples. We rockin'."
French Montana is observing Ramadan for the rest of this month and he's fasting. That means absolutely no eating until sunset, no sex, no smoking and no drinking.
Khloe Kardashian revealed to that she's suffering from this fast too.
"No sex. [It's] so fun [said sarcastically]. That's why he's wearing all white. He's so pure and holy. … He's virginal.[Laughs]
"I have been [torturing him]. Every single day. Torture."
Khloe Kardashian made it clear that she doesn't care what others have to say about her hanging out with French. She stood up for her man!
"People are gonna comment no matter what. If I dated the most clean cut perfect guy, they're gonna comment. That's just the way it is. If I'm having fun and if I like this kid, no one else should care, they're not f****g him. [Laughs] Our maybe they are, I don't know."
French Montana reacts with his signature "haaaaaaaaaaa."
In the full interview French talks recording with Kanye West, appearing on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Bobby Shmurda having a southern flow, getting TMZ coverage and more.

Hi ladies,
So my DH (dear husband) and I tried for two cycles and had no success. I need dental work done so I am taking a break on purpose. We were in a bit of a rush since I need this work done in 2012, and needed to have my baby prior to december 1. Now that we lost that race and will just have the work done first, I was finally relaxed.. for a moment...
In my latest pregnancy test package, there was a free fertility test. I decided to read the directions and learn about it on Friday night. I learned it told you if you are suspected to have high FSH levels. (Follicle Stimulating Hormone). You need to take it on CD (cycle day) 3, and I was reading this on CD (cycle day) 2. Since the timing was good, I went for it and since I did not have any signs of high FSH (got pregannt on my own, have regular periods, am only 34 etc.), I was not expecting a bad result. I was SHOCKED to see the positive result.. I tested positive for most likely having high FSH. While this is not good news, doctors tend to treat this aggressively. I would have never been tested for this until I turned 35, or had 2 more miscarriages (since my doctor told me to keep trying for another year). Since this free test was put in my hands, I now have the power of knowledge and will have a better shot at getting pregnant again and hopefully carrying to term. I am currently waiting for a call back from my doctor to discuss next steps.
So here is my PSA. This test is about $20 and is put out by First Response. If you have any signs of high FSH and you are under 30 (irregular periods, headache, vaginal dryness, very SHORT and/or light periods) and did not receive any fertility testing prior to or after your miscarriage, I recommend investing the money into this test. This will NOT test for all fertlity issues, but high FSH is one where the clock is not on your side at all. If you are over 30.. whether or not you have symptoms or not, buy it.
You will most likely get a negative result (meaning you are normal). All that will do is make you feel better that at least this one thing is not wrong. If you do get a positive result like I got, then you can do something about it instead of wasting time thinking you are "normal" and just had bad luck.

The family is the primary and most important group that most people will ever identify with. It is very important to understand the relationships that each family member has to the others that contribute to the functioning of the whole family system. It is also important to understand how families evolve over the life span. When there are problems, life transitions, or other issues, the healthy balance of the family system can be jeopardized. Family therapy can restore this balance. It can help the family understand which repetitive behavior patterns are resulting in instability, while teaching new behavior patterns that provide stability, health, and happiness to each family member.

In designing packing materialsand methodologies, AMD is sen-sitive to the susceptibility of somepackages to moisture-induced damage. The risk of this is great-est when using plastic encapsulation materials, as plastic is naturally permeable to moisture.The moisture in the package will increase or decrease to reach therelative humidity (RH) of the surrounding environment. Controlling the moisture level in the package body is, therefore, critical in reducing the risk of moisture-induced damage. Such damage may include internal delamination of the package materials from the die and/or lead-frame/substrate or internal cracks. External cracking may also occur when components are exposed to the high temperatures and steep temperature gradients used in reflow board assembly techniques. Moisture in the package rapidly heats and vaporizes and, if there is sufficient steam due to the moisture in the package having reached a critical level, it will fracture the package to escape. This phenomenon is known as the "popcorn effect."

About the Book
22 Steps to the Sea
Two years ago, I set off on a photographic journey along the Texas Gulf coast. Working with the following idea, I planned to spend at least six weeks traveling the coastline.
"Humans have long been drawn to the sea. The ever-changing landscapes combined with the ever-changing lights seem to evoke emotion that's unique. This project explores the relationship between the sea and those who choose to live by it.
On one hand, humans seem to have the upper hand, building roads that wind along the coast, staking our claim to the very edge of land that we considered as rightfully ours. The desire to be close to the sea has drawn thousands of people to live there, spawning housing development after housing development. Motels and RV parks are built to accommodate the huge influx of tourists. Various industries have also taken advantage of the easy transport links and the easily accessed waste disposal.
But on the other hand, nature is dictating our every move. The very road that allows us to get close to the sea is shaped by nature herself. We try everything to stop her from claiming it back while constantly looking to expand. Houses have to be built to withstand the erosion and storms that come with living on the coast. Every year, many buildings are destroyed and abandoned.
The images are taken along the coastal roads on the Texas Gulf Coast. One of the fastest corroding coastlines, allegedly caused by the river diversions carried out by the oil refineries. The photographs in the series were taken along the coastal road, 22 steps to the sea."
After 2 weeks, I cut the trip short. In the 16 days that I was shooting, I was stopped on 12 different occasions by the Coast Guard, Homeland Security, Police, Fire Departments and a number of private security firms. All citing national security and terrorist threat as the reason I have to pack up and move on. I was asked whether I have ever worked for Al-Jezzera and was told that since I had been flagged on more than 3 occasions, a report would have been generated to the FBI. That was enough to put me off the project.
Two years later, I have decided to retrace my trip, on Google map.
