The Thompson Valley School District's student enrollment has been virtually flat since 2001 with the district's new student population at 14,806 in 2001/02 and enrollment numbers of 15,310 in 2010/11.
As of September 26th, the TSD weekly enrollment report recorded a student population of 15, 108.
These numbers vary but you can see that there is no justification for a mill levy overide due to increased enrollment. So, why do they say they need the money?
District employment: Since 2005 TSD has hired more than 400 new employees, mostly in non-teaching, support staff postions which increase the districts overhead without putting more teachers in the classroom.
TSD has many schools which are under capacity and should be closed. This would free up funding resources for the district and leave them in a much stronger position financially. The additional cost of busing students to another school would be negligible compared to the savings.
It seems that the school district's main objective is full employment rather than educating the kids and providing a value to the taxpayers of Loveland.

We are mainly looking to get Netflix streaming. Any tips, suggestions and/or recommendations about which unit to buy and what other services to purchase?
If price is not an issue, look at the Apple TV. You can integrate it so easily with your ipad and iphone. For example the free remote app will control your AppleTv with your iphone.
I have the apple TV 2 720p version and its great. Jailbreaking the Apple TV 2 can unlock you a great library of movies/tv shows *Hint*Hint* And yes the Apple TV does have Netflix as well as Hulu. The new Apple TV that just came out a while ago can go as high as 1080p as long as your TV can go that high. EDIT : Look at this link, i just read over it and there is some pretty good comparisons. http://www.electronichouse.com/article/apple_tv_vs_roku_2_xs_streaming_media_showdown
I have a Roku and it works pretty well. I basically bought it for Netfix but ended up using it for Hulu Plus and my brother in law works for Amazon so free Amazon Prime!
So far I have used... Roku 2 XS Logitech Revue (Google TV) Western Digital TV Live Samsung Blu-ray Other things being similar, 2 main differences with Roku and Revue -- Roku 2 XS comes with a motion remote with which you can play few games like angry birds (although not sure if anyone wanna play that anymore ) Logitech Revue (Google TV) comes a full keyboard which makes it so easy to search stuff on youtube, plus Google TV has full browser (Chrome) -- so for those reasons, it is my fav of the others above
@Above, I connected my bluetooth Apple keyboard to my Apple TV. You can use any bluetooth keyboard to pair with the box. Though, i have to say it, but a jailbroken Apple TV would be a cheaper alternative if you use Netflix. I used Netflix for quite a while and found out about the free streaming you can get from a Jailbroken Apple TV and i immediately canceled my subscription and bought the box. Ever since, its been doing me wonders!
Andy, I have the same ATV2. How hard is it to jailbreak? I would love to have access to all the movies..espically if you are hinting at newer releases as well.
Interested in this as well. I've never jailbroken Apple products before just because I like the way they work out of the box.
I've used Netflix on the Roku 2 XS, Western Digital TV Live, and Apple TV. The Roku is the best way to do Netflix with minimal other hassle.
Call me a hassle hater. I'm pretty sure Roku is the way I want to go but since I've got an Apple centric place, I still want to explore Apple TV some more.
Netflix is not an issue for me on the apple tv at all. the integration is awesome. It just matters how your stereo is set up through your TV. For example, if you had pandora or spotify and your tv is running through good speakers, you can control your music with your iphone or ipad. you can do a photostream through your tv, show your iphone videos on tv..put your web browser up there..its really versatile. I got mine as a gift, and didnt really start using it much until I figured this stuff out.
If you do have an Apple-centric place, the AppleTV is the obvious choice. It's a great little box and the Netflix experience on it is pretty much on par with Roku. I would recommend a Roku for someone who won't be using it to connect to iTunes or iPhones or anything, but if you do have other iProducts definitely go with the AppleTV. Airplay by itself is reason to get one if you have other Apple stuff.
Apple TV works brilliantly at home for me. Best part is using Watch ESPN on the iPad and AirPlay streaming to put tennis coverage on my tv when none of the networks are carrying the event.
Oooooh, now you have me sold. I'm big into watching college football and the ability to have anything on Watch ESPN is very appealing. Thanks for the info.
I was actually going to get an Apple TV as well. Here is a detailed demo that I thought was pretty good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_GUuJyyyRQ The actual demo starts at about 3:50.
Just to clarify, we have Watch ESPN through our cable provider (Optimum/Cablevision) and I assume yours does to. The Apple TV itself doesn't magically give you the service, it just makes it dead-simple for you to take the stream from an iPad, iPhone, iPod, or Mac and put on a much larger screen. Hope you enjoy whatever purchase you make.
RPi is the opposite of "no hassle." No enclosure, no remote, no built-in software. XBMC has no Netflix integration (the plugin simply launches Netflix in a browser window). Fun times! Raspberry Pi is very cool, but it is a cheap tinkering or embedding platform. It is not a plug and play Netflix box.
You are right probably not for Mikeler based on his want to run netflix. One could argue that if you have XBMC you don't really need Netflix.
I used WatchESPN on my iPhone, sometimes even while at home this fall. So I've paid for the cable service that allows me to watch it. Thanks for adding that clarification though because I can see where others might think it comes with that feature already.
Jailbreaking the Apple TV 2 wasn't hard at all. Though i would suggest not getting the TV 3 because they didn't have a released working jailbreak yet. Make sure to check your version number. I.E 4.4.4, 5.0.2 and such. The jailbreaking process took just about 3 minutes. The way "Jailbreaking" sounds is pretty intimidating but its just hitting a few buttons on the remote and connecting the apple tv to your computer. That's all. but you would have to download some stuff in order to jailbreak it obviously.
A person on youtube made a guide in literally 3 1/2 minutes on how to jailbreak it. And yes, they do have access to all of the newer movies, well most. The latest movie i watch a while ago was the dark knight rises.
Neither of them do. It's a simple connection. I just like Roku because you don't have to tie it in with you iTunes account.
Do you game Mikeler? I stream Netflix from my Xbox 360 all the time. If you want to go super cheap and have a laptop and a TV with an HDMI connection all you need is an HDMI cable and you're good to go. Also IIRC - TennisMonkey in the TWMAC has a Roku.
I have a Roku(and we still play angry birds and galaga on it) and I got apple tv and for whatever reason (maybe the Apple tv has a better antenna) the apple tv connects to the wifi much better than my Roku. If you won't be connecting by wifi it won't be an issue. We just got a Wii U which also has Netflix, so I have a lot of redundancy now. Apple TV has a lot of cool bells and whistles we use it often to view home movies.
I am buying an Apple TV, soon. Apple does not do everything well, but what they do well is integrating their products. With Apple TV I will be able to use the features of the iCloud, iTunes Store, games, apps, Youtube, Netflix and Airplay, etc. My three year old who is good on the iPad will now be able to take control of the TV. Be warned that Airplay mirroring only works with Mountain Lion and not all iOS 6 devices but does work with iPad2 and 3 and iPhone 4S and iPhone 5. If you don't have all the Apple gadgets that I do, get whatever. Here is a comparison between the Roku and Apple TV: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBgck_QrOK4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_GUuJyyyRQ
You can only get espn for free if you have a login and password from a cable provider and the espn app on your ipad that you can airplay on your atv. Jailbroke the atv last night and installed xbmc. Game changer. I was going to watch cloud atlas but it was too late.
^^ Wasn't hard right? PS : Did you get 1Channel yet? It's going to be a lot more handier than IceFilms.
Bummer... I brought mine home after I got a new job with a pay raise. Wife didn't complain about it. Otherwise I'd probably be in the same boat
My Roku (1) box broke and I find the netflix on the kids XBOX to be a real pain, so I'm looking around also. My TV only has 2 HDMI outlet though, is there a way to "split" an HDMI outlet ? Also, has anyone tried this $50 device ? http://gizmodo.com/5947223/this-50-stick-turns-any-hdtv-into-an-android+powered-smart-tv
Have you tried using smart glass (iphone or android app) for entering search terms on the Xbox? Makes it a bit easier. I tend to set my streaming queue from the computer anyway on average though.
They've got nice cheap hdmi splitters at a big on line store that offers prime that detects which device to sync to based on which device is on. If more than one device is on, you can change the switch manually. HDMI 3-In 1-Out HDMI Auto Switch with 1.5 ft. Cable Works pretty good.
Thanks for both the smartglass tip and the HDMI splitter info, downloaded the app tonight and ordered the splitter.
Get a blu ray player. You can watch or listen to any kind of disc, play any kind of file through usb, or stream through dlna, and have access to not only netflix but just about every other streaming service out there. With a sony, I can watch blu ray or dvd, I can listen to sacd and blu ray audio disc, stream most files from my computer, watch them via usb and stream just about anything through a service like vudu, amazon and of course net flix.
It's not a splitter like analog cable which degrades the signal with an increasing number of 'splits': it is an hdmi switch for multiple inputs. I have a 3/1 and the signal looks absolutely perfect. $10 should do the trick.
Few BD players are nearly as good at streaming as a Roku or AppleTV. The ones that are are much more expensive than $80-$100.
Blu-ray, not DVD. And the reason is that Blu-ray quality is much, much better than even the best online streaming. If you don't care about picture or sound quality it doesn't matter. Also, Netflix and other streaming services tend not to have newer movies. Dark Knight Rises? Avengers? Ted? Total Recall? Trouble With The Curve? None of these are on Netflix.

Reinhold Weege, creator of TV hit 'Night Court,' dies at 62
Reinhold Weege, who created the popular Emmy-winning sitcom "Night Court" about an often-anarchic, after-hours New York courtroom and its cast of memorably loony characters, has died. He was 62.
Weege, who also wrote and co-produced the television series "Barney Miller," died Dec. 1 of natural causes at his home in La Jolla, Calif., said Bonnie Covelli, his former assistant.
"Night Court," which aired on NBC from 1984 to 1992, starred a boyish Harry Anderson as the unorthodox, fun-loving judge Harry Stone and John Larroquette as lecherous prosecuting attorney Dan Fielding.
Beneath the carnival-like atmosphere of Stone's courtroom, the show pushed the envelope for network television at the time, with occasionally edgy story lines and characters seemingly drawn from the streets of New York City.
Weege said the show was grounded in reality, insisting that he had seen actual courtrooms that were more bizarre.
But "Night Court" was best-known for its humor and assortment of lovable oddballs, including its jeans-wearing, Mel Torme-obsessed judge; its towering, dimwitted bailiff; and a character known as "Phil the derelict," who became the prosecutor's personal lackey. Pimps and prostitutes also made regular appearances, and Weege later disclosed that he had named most of them after his friends.
The series, which began as a midseason replacement, was among the most popular television shows of its era, part of a powerhouse Thursday-night lineup for NBC that included "The Cosby Show," "Family Ties" and "Cheers." It won seven Emmys, including an unprecedented four consecutive supporting comedy actor awards for Larroquette.
"We do great jokes," Larroquette said of "Night Court" in a 1988 Los Angeles Times interview. "The show may not be in any way intellectual and we don't make any pretense of dealing with issues that are impossible to address or solve in the sitcom format. . . . But if you just want to forget it all for a minute and laugh at pies in the face and pants around the ankles, that's what we do very well."
On Friday, Larroquette paid tribute to Weege in a Twitter post: "In life there are those who impact us with such force everything changes. Reinhold Weege was that in mine. May he truly rest in peace."
Weege received three Emmy nominations for "Night Court" and one for "Barney Miller," the long-running ABC sitcom starring Hal Linden. Weege also wrote several television movies, as well as episodes for the short-lived 1970s series "Fish," a "Barney Miller" spinoff that starred Abe Vigoda.
Born in Chicago on Dec. 23, 1949, Weege grew up in the Chicago area and got a taste of theater in his senior year of high school in Mount Prospect, Ill., when he played Thomas Cromwell in "A Man for All Seasons." Future TV and film actor Bruce Boxleitner and Shelley Pierce, Weege's high school girlfriend who became his wife, were in the same production.
Weege attended a number of colleges, including DePaul and Illinois Wesleyan, then served in the military. As a reporter and editor for a suburban newspaper, he was fired for writing about a secret meeting on a development deal, a story that angered the paper's advertisers, he said in 1994 in The Chicago Tribune.
After that, "I sold our couch, the only asset my wife and I had, got in the car and headed toward Hollywood," he told the Tribune. His big break came in 1976, when he was hired to write for "Barney Miller."
He spoke of his craft in 1998 in The Hollywood Reporter. "My specialty is being funny and substantial at the same time," he said. "I want people to watch a half-hour and give a damn about it afterward."
Weege and his wife were divorced. His survivors include his daughters Tez and Alix and his granddaughter Zoe.

Story highlights
- Amazon goes through nine nations, contains one in 10 of the known species on earth
- Semuc Champey is a series of spectacular steeped limestone pools in Guatemala
- Ganges isn't very pretty but it offers many spiritual and profound experiences
They irrigate our farms, are an important means of transport and a source of eco-friendly power.
Rivers are the life-giving arteries of our planet.
They can be a whole lot of fun for travelers, too.
From exotic wildlife hubs to whitewater rafting hotspots and the most scenic stretches for cruising, we've highlighted 15 rivers worth basing your next trip around.
Rankings were made on five travel criteria.
Scenic beauty -- the physical beauty of the river; waterfalls, color, drama of the landscape.
Nature and wildlife -- diversity and prevalence of flora and fauna.
Culture -- depth, diversity and accessibility of local culture; tribal/medieval villages etc.
Adventure -- thrill factor of the river's topography and location
Activity options -- rafting, wildlife watching, hiking, biking etc.
We've debated among ourselves, researched expert views and polled our colleagues and fellow travelers around the world, to score each river for these qualities.
15. Volga River (Russia)
Scenic beauty: 3 | Nature and wildlife: 2 | Culture: 3 | Adventure: 2 | Activity options: 2
According to an old Russian proverb, to know Russia is to know the Volga.
Winding through the nation's heartland, "Mother Volga" houses 11 of Russia's 20 largest cities on its banks, which explains its popularity among the cruise set.
Most tour boats ply a section of the Volga just north of Moscow before traveling on to St. Petersburg via a series of interconnected waterways, taking in major cities alongside quaint riverside towns sprinkled with historic Kremlins and brightly colored onion-domed churches.
Frozen for three months of the year, the Volga is best visited during the height of summer.
14. Li River (China)
Scenic beauty: 5 | Nature and wildlife: 2 | Culture: 2 | Adventure: 1 | Activity options: 3
China might be known for the Yangtze, but it's difficult not to fall under the spell of the Li (Lijiang) River.
It's possible to take in the river's breathtaking karst topography -- likened to the limestone cliffs of Vietnam's Ha Long Bay -- between the Guangxi Province towns of Guilin and Yangshuo via boat tour, while others prefer to opt for a more traditional bamboo rafting trip along the smaller and less crowded Yulong River (a tributary of the Li), both of which can be organized from Guilin.
13. Loire (France)
Scenic beauty: 4 | Nature and wildlife: 2 | Culture: 3 | Adventure: 1 | Activity options: 2
As European road trips go, it's hard to beat a scenic drive along France's longest river.
Dotted with grand chateaus steeped in history, sprawling, manicured gardens and undulating green hills stretching to the horizon, the Loire also lends nicely to cruising.
But with no pesky border crossings to account for, most travelers prefer to navigate its length on four wheels, or, thanks to a proliferation of cycle ways, by bike.
Though given the number of vineyards en route, it can be slow going.
12. Colorado River (United States, Mexico)
Scenic beauty: 4 | Nature and wildlife: 2 | Culture: 2 | Adventure: 2 | Activity options: 4
The principal waterway of the southwestern United States, the Colorado River has something for every type of traveler.
Flowing down form the Rocky Mountains, dammed areas including Lake Powell in Arizona, Lake Mead in Nevada and Lake Havasu on the border of California and Arizona are popular house boating, weekend recreation and spring break party destinations respectively, while the section that cuts through the Grand Canyon attracts whitewater rafting enthusiasts, kayakers and tubing fans.
Further south, the river runs through a series of threatened wildlife refuges before drying up in the Mexican desert.

11. Caño Cristales (Colombia)
Scenic beauty: 5 | Nature and wildlife: 3 | Culture: 2 | Adventure: 4 | Activity options: 1
Known as "the river that ran away from paradise," the Caño Cristales in central Colombia is often considered the most beautiful river in the world.
For most of the year, this Orinoco River tributary is virtually indistinguishable from any other.
But during the summer months, when the heat helps resident algae colonies to grow and multiply, the river explodes in a multi-hued array of colors worthy of a thousand photographs.
Off-limits to tourists for many years due to militant activity in the area, the river hub town of La Macarena is now welcoming travelers.
10. Nile (Africa)
Scenic beauty: 4 | Nature and wildlife: 3 | Culture: 4 | Adventure: 3 | Activity options: 2
Though the Nile actually flows through 11 countries, most associate the world's longest river with Egypt.
From the tomb-laden Valley of the Kings to the monumental Temple of Luxor, the riverbanks of the Nile house almost all of Ancient Egypt's historical sites.
A cruise is easily the best way to take them all in at a relaxed pace while watching local life unfold alongside the river much as it has for the past 5,000 years.
9. Rio Futaleufú (Argentina, Chile)
Scenic beauty: 3 | Nature and wildlife: 3 | Culture: 1 | Adventure: 5 | Activity options: 4
Fed by Argentina's glacial lakes, the brilliant aquamarine waters of the Rio Futaleufú cross the Andes and cascade through southeastern Chile, where adrenalin junkies converge from November to March to tackle its heart-quickening rapids by raft or kayak.
Framed by thickets of hardwood forest and sheer granite cliffs, this stunning Patagonian waterway is also a popular sport fishing destination, and hiking, biking, rock climbing and horseback riding are all possible from the scenic Chilean hub town which bears the river's name.
More: Off-radar river voyages
8. Ganges (India, Bangladesh)
Scenic beauty: 3 | Nature and wildlife: 1 | Culture: 5 | Adventure: 4 | Activity options: 3
The world's most populated river basin, "Mother Ganga" certainly isn't the world's cleanest or prettiest waterway, yet it remains India's most sacred river for Hindus.
Witnessing pilgrims converge at the bathing and funeral ghats in the holy city of Varanasi may be one of the most profound travel experiences you'll ever have, but it's safer to swim much further upstream, closer to the Ganges' Himalayan source.
While primarily known as a yoga center, the foothill town of Rishikesh also has a healthy side business in whitewater rafting.
7. Kenai River (United States)
Scenic beauty: 4 | Nature and wildlife: 5 | Culture: 1 | Adventure: 4 | Activity options: 3
Running 82 miles through southern Alaska's Kenai Peninsula, this meltwater river is the most popular sport fishing destination in the state.
Each year there are two salmon runs, which also attract American brown (grizzly) bears along with moose, black bears and multiple bird species.
Beluga whales have also been sighted as far as six miles upstream in the spring.
A scenic, three-hour drive from Anchorage, the Kenai is all geared up for tourism should you fancy opting for a "drifting" wildlife safari, guided glacier walk or multi-day kayaking adventure.
6. Irrawaddy River (Myanmar)
Scenic beauty: 3 | Nature and wildlife: 3 | Culture: 5 | Adventure: 4 | Activity options: 2
If you've already seen the sights along Southeast Asia's majestic Mekong or missed the party in Vang Vieng, Laos' once notorious river tubing party hub, consider a trip to neighboring Myanmar, where river tourism is taking off.
Several international companies now offer river cruises on Myanmar's mysterious Irrawaddy River with varying itineraries taking in ancient temples, remote villages, local trading centers and important Buddhist sites.
5. Danube and Rhine (Europe)
Scenic beauty: 5 | Nature and wildlife: 2 | Culture: 5 | Adventure: 3 | Activity options: 2
The first European river cruises were on the Danube and the Rhine, and for good reason.
Connected by a canal system, the two rivers gurgle through 12 countries between them, with baroque cathedrals, medieval towns and romantic castles a-plenty scattered along their banks.
It's possible to see the most famous section of the Rhine -- between the Middle Rhine towns of Bonn and Bingen -- by ferry in as little as a day if you're pushed for time, though Danube highlights including the city of Melk in Austria, Bratislava in Slovakia, Budapest in Hungary and Vidin in Bulgaria beg for a longer expedition.
4. Sepik River (Papua New Guinea, Indonesia)
Scenic beauty: 3 | Nature and wildlife: 3 | Culture: 5 | Adventure: 5 | Activity options: 2
Referred to as the Amazon of the Asia-Pacific, Papua New Guinea's Sepik River is among the world's most diverse ecosystems.
Winding through alpine heaths, dense tropical rainforests and mangrove swamps before emptying into North PNG's Bismarck Sea, this largely unchartered waterway reaches deep into a world that has remained virtually unchanged for centuries.
River cruises offer an insight into the culture of local communities living so primitively that many old timers can still recall the taste of human flesh from their headhunting days.
3. Río Cahabón (Guatemala)
Scenic beauty: 4 | Nature and wildlife: 3 | Culture: 2 | Adventure: 5 | Activity options: 5
Never heard of it? Few had, until a few years back, when a section of the Rio Cahabón's densely forested pathway through central Guatemala was forged as a key stop on the Central American backpacker trail.
Known as Semuc Champey, the series of spectacular steeped limestone pools bridging over the river are accessed via a hiking trail near the village of Lanquin.
Local hostels also offer tubing excursions along the Rio Cahabón's tributaries, candlelight tours of a cave system carved out by the water, and year-round grade III and IV rafting.
2. Zambezi (Africa)
Scenic beauty: 5 | Nature and wildlife: 4 | Culture: 4 | Adventure: 5 | Activity options: 4
Boasting superb wildlife watching, some of the best white-water rafting on the planet and the thundering beauty of Victoria Falls, the Zambezi is a showstopper.
In the Middle Zambezi, which borders Zambia and Zimbabwe, you can bungee jump off Africa's largest waterfall, or tackle the grade IV rapids just below.
Most wildlife -- from hippo pods to big cats and sly Nile crocodiles -- is spotted on jeep safaris and kayaking trips around the Lower Zambezi, where the swampy delta funnels down through Mozambique into the Indian Ocean.
1. Amazon River (South America)
Scenic beauty: 5 | Nature and wildlife: 5 | Culture: 4 | Adventure: 5 | Activity options: 5
Topping our list by an aquatic mile, the mighty Amazon snakes through the jungles of nine South American nations, providing a sanctuary for more than 400 indigenous Indian tribes and one in 10 of the known species on earth.
For travelers, the possibilities are huge -- from wildlife spotting safaris to kayaking trips and gnarly jungle treks.
Backpacker-friendly Bolivia is a popular place to explore the pampas by lancha (long-tail boat), stopping off along Amazon tributaries to swim with pink dolphins, fish for piranha and track elusive anaconda.

Kimbrel named September Delivery Man of Month
Kimbrel named September Delivery Man of Month
The right-hander put together a string of 13 consecutive scoreless appearances to take the honor for the first time since August 2011. He is the only Atlanta pitcher to earn the award and the fifth hurler overall to win it in back-to-back seasons.
Kimbrel racked up a 3-0 record in September and converted all 10 of his save opportunities to finish second in the Majors for the month, helping the Braves lock up a National League Wild Card berth. The 24-year-old struck out 25 batters and walked two in 12 2/3 innings, permitting six hits while opponents batted .133 against him.
His month began on Sept. 5, when he punched out four in 1 1/3 innings to nail down a 1-0 Braves win over the Rockies. Kimbrel picked up saves the next two days as well and struck out multiple batters in each of his first six September games.
The third-year pitcher is 3-1 with a 1.02 ERA and an NL-best 42 saves on the season, with 113 strikeouts and 14 walks in 61 2/3 innings.

UCLA football: Most despised--Mora or Kiffin?
December 15th, 2011, 1:00 pm by SCOTT M. REID, OCREGISTER.COMThe Atlanta Journal Constitution's esteemed columnist Mark Bradley has tackled a tough question for many in the Greater ATL and all points south of Knoxville: who is more despised USC's Lane Kiffin, the former drive thru Tennessee coach, or new UCLA hire Jim Mora,who apparently torched more than a few bridges during his stint as the Atlanta Falcons boss?
Bradley, echoing his readers, describes it as his "cosmic dilemma: To root against Lane Kiffin or Jim Mora?"
"There are two major football-playing colleges in Los Angeles," Bradley writes. "One is now headed by Little Jimmy Mora. The other is Southern Cal, which is helmed (and I use the term loosely) by Lane Kiffin, whom I've previously described as the most hated man in sports. And this leaves me with what we Cold War Kids used to consider the ultimate dilemma: Namely, if the Soviet Union got into it with China, which side would we root against?"
Bradley describes Kiffin as "a smug little weasel who thinks the football world owes him a living because his daddy was a coach." As for Mora, Bradley said, the new Bruin coach was even less popular with Falcons employees than the pretty much universally despised Bobby Petrino.

We Love You Anu
Fundraiser for Anuradha Mitra's continuing medical treatment and for her family to be by her side during this unimaginable time.
Over the next few days her prognosis was so poor the doctors didn't expect her to make it through that first week, but she did. Over the next few weeks the doctors didn't expect Anu to show any brain activity, but she did. The doctors said that Anu would never wake up, but she did. On New Year's Eve, I watched as the nurse asked Anu to show us her thumb, and she did. The nurse asked Anu to squeeze her hand, and she did. From day one, Anu has proven doctors and medical science wrong, and continues to do so each and every day.
Though I have no doubt in my mind that Anu will be that bubbly, happy, smiley, full-of-life girl again we all love so dearly, her road to recovery is going to be a long one. Anu is fighting for her life every day, and both her and her family need our help for Anu to continue to get the medical care she needs, and allow the family to be by her side every step of the way. Please help support Anu and her family to get our beloved Anu back.
Being from Calcutta, India, it took almost 2 weeks for both her parents who had never been to the United States before to get their Visas and be able to come to their daughters side. Fortunately Anu's sister who had just begun her PhD in Atlanta was closer by and was able to catch the first plane in that next morning, and hasn't left her side since. Even Anu's good friend who has only been in the United States a few months to start his PhD in Utah has flown in and stayed by her side since to support Anu and her family. Anu was attending Fresno State as a Masters student and was in San Diego on a summer internship. She enjoyed San Diego and the company she was working for so much she decided to stay longer and complete her Master's project here at our work.
I first met Anu in May when she started as an intern in the research and development department. I started out as her Mentor in the lab, but in no time at all our professional relationship turned into a friendship, and Anu became my closest friend. Often times after work we would go to her favorite pizza place near her apartment for pizza and her newly discovered taste for apple cider. We would often hang out with our other friend from work, Kandee, and were referred to as "The Three Amigos". The last time the 3 of us were together was for my birthday in November when Anu and Kandee took me out to a wonderful brunch and fun-filled time watching Harold and Kumar in 3D. We had plans to take Anu iceskating for her Birthday on Coronado Island where they have an outdoor iceskating rink with an ocean view. Instead it was spent decorating her hospital room and reading her all her friends Facebook posts for her birthday. She has now spent Thanksgiving, her 26th birthday, Christmas, and New Years in the hospital. Let's make sure she doesn't have to spend any more holidays in that room. We love you Anu. We know you are going to get through this, and none of us are going anywhere until you do. Can't wait to see that beautiful smile of yours again.

The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency issued an air permit-to-install and two wastewater permits to National Lime & Stone, which wants to build and operate a quarry on County Road 20 in Blanchard Township, northeast of Dunkirk.
The air permit would allow the company to begin excavation for roads leading to the proposed quarry and remove surface soil. The wastewater permits would let the company build a 5-acre sedimentation pond and discharge up to 700,000 gallons of groundwater and storm water per day.
However, to begin quarry operations, the company also must obtain a second air permit-to-install, and it has not applied for such a permit. In addition, zoning issues that affect the project are tied up in litigation.
A proposed stone quarry near this Hardin County village has property owners worried about the water they drink, the air they breathe, and their quality of life once the blasting begins.
At an Ohio EPA hearing in May, 2000, nearby residents protested the project, arguing that it would cause air, water, and noise pollution.

Spain Growth Beats Bank of Spain Estimate Even as Prices Fall
Angeline BenoitSpanish second-quarter growth beat the Bank of Spain's estimate as economists say domestic demand supported a recovery in the euro region's fourth-largest economy even as prices fell this month.
The Madrid-based National Statistics Institute today said that gross domestic product rose 0.6 percent from the first quarter, more than the forecast of 0.5 percent released last week by the Bank of Spain. Consumer prices fell 0.3 percent from a year ago in July, INE said in a separate release.
"It's rare for the Bank of Spain to be mistaken, even by a tenth," said Frederik Ducrozet, an economist at Credit Agricole CIB in Paris. "That suggests a marginally stronger momentum than expected."
As domestic demand starts to recover from the deepest austerity measures in Spain's democratic history, Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy is relying on the rebound to dent a 25 percent unemployment rate, the second-highest in the European Union.
"Growth could beat forecasts this year and next as domestic demand seems to recover, possibly supported by government incentives deployed in the run up to the next general election," Ducrozet said.
Falling Prices
Economy Minister Luis de Guindos yesterday said the government expects the economy to grow 1.5 percent this year and 2 percent in 2015, faster than previously forecast. That will push unemployment lower than the 24.9 percent rate initially predicted for 2014, Guindos said. Details will be published in September, he said.
Stronger growth didn't prevent prices from falling this month after stagnating in June. The 0.3 percent drop compares with the median forecast for a 0.1 percent decline in a Bloomberg survey of 16 economists.
"Spain still has a large output gap inherited from past weak growth," said Jacques Cailloux, chief European economist at Nomura International Plc in London. "The cyclical upswing isn't sufficient to close the gap and suppress disinflationary pressures, as shown by low wage inflation."
German carmaker Opel this month said that its market share in Spain was the strongest since 2006 in the first half. Car sales in the country jumped 24 percent in June, the biggest increase among Europe's five largest auto markets. As traffic on its Spanish toll roads reached the highest in seven years, Abertis Infraestructuras SA first-half profit rose 4.4 percent.
'Sustainable Recovery'
"This is the beginning of a sustainable recovery," said Miguel Cardoso Lecourtois, chief economist for Spain at Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA in Madrid. "The growth we're seeing has mostly come from domestic consumption and from investment in machinery and equipment."
Spanish retail sales rose in June from a year ago by 0.2 percent, INE said yesterday. That's the third straight month it's increased, and the longest period of gains since 2007.
Even so, companies including office supplier Adveo Group International SA and airline Iberia are still cutting jobs, more than two years since Rajoy overhauled labor rules to make it easier for companies to reduce headcount and wages.
"It's clear that wages have fallen in Spain," said Alfredo Arahuetes Garcia, head of the economy department at Pontificia Comillas University in Madrid, in a telephone interview. "The recovery will be very gradual with spending remaining soft as families dig into their savings."
No Savings
Households had no savings in the first quarter for the first time since the start of the series in 2000, INE data showed on July 2. Gross available income fell 2.7 percent from a year ago while spending rose 1.9 percent, it said.
Optimism about Spain's nascent recovery and investors' search for additional yield amid unprecedented central-bank stimulus measures have fueled a rally in its stocks and bonds. Spain's Ibex-35 index of leading companies is up 29 percent from a year ago while the Spanish Treasury is cutting back planned debt issuance amid record low borrowing costs.
The yield on Spain's 10-year benchmark bond was at 2.47 percent at 10:17 a.m. in Madrid, compared with a euro-era high of 7.75 percent in July 2012, when the sovereign came close to losing access to financial markets after seeking a European bailout for its banks.
(An earlier version of this story was corrected to show the period in second paragraph is three months through June.)

I think that staring at the cosmos is equivalent to staring into our own brain... And the big bang is the conceptual, theoretical birth of our mind.
And I think that Berkeleys solipsism is the best idealism because it's the most simple, and if we are going to be so dogmatically reductionistic with our mathematics and scientific theories, then it follows that we employ the same reductionism to our epistemological and metaphysical beleifs.

Feb 14, 2014
Australia lost Chris Rogers early in their second innings, as they extended their overall lead to 209 runs in the first Test against South Africa at Centurion. The hosts were bowled out for 206 in the first innings as Mitchell Johnson claimed seven wickets to help Australia take 191-run lead in the first essay.
After bowling out the hosts for a modest first innings total, Australia reached 18 for one at lunch on the third day of the opening Test.
South Africa's middle-order mainstay AB de Villiers was unfortunate to have missed out on a century, as he fell for 91 off 148 balls to Johnson. His effort was the only bright spot for the South Africans in their reply to Australia's 397.
The South Africans resumed their innings at 140 for six, but soon lost Robin Peterson as he could not keep down a delivery off Johnson aimed at the rib cage area, and Michael Clarke did the rest.
Peterson's dismissal brought Philander at the crease; he added 49 runs for the eighth wicket. His stay at the crease was ended by Lyon, who trapped him in front of the wickets.
De Villiers was unfortunate to have missed out on a century, as he waged a lone battle for the hosts. He batted with ease against the menacing pace of Johnson and against Peter Siddle and Ryan Harris. De Villiers slammed 10 boundaries and two sixes during his stay at the crease.
Johnson claimed three out of four wickets that fell on the third day morning, as Nathan Lyon chipped in with the dismissal of Vernon Philander, who added 49 runs with de Villiers to help his side avoid follow-on.
Johnson's performance is the best performance by an overseas bowler at Centurion.
Brief scores:
Australia 397 (Shaun Marsh 148, Steven Smith 100; Dale Steyn 4 for 78, Robin Peterson 2 for 49) & 18 for 1 (David Warner 12*; Dale Steyn 1 for 9) lead South Africa 206 (AB de Villiers 91; Mitchell Johnson 7 for 68) by 209 runs.

For the first time since Sharron Angle won the GOP primary, she's edging out U.S. Sen. Harry Reid in a new poll for the Las Vegas Review-Journal and 8NewsNow highlighting the high stakes of tonight's only debate in the race.
The survey by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research shows Angle with 47 percent support compared with 45 percent for Reid. That's within the margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points. Another 4 percent were undecided, 2 percent chose other candidates and 2 percent "none."
Angle gained among Republicans and even Democrats. She also maintained a healthy advantage over Reid among swing voters aligned with neither party, although Reid narrowed the nonpartisan gap to 8 points, or 48-40, keeping the race in dead heat territory.
Republicans point to several recent polls that show Angle over Reid to argue she has momentum, but a couple also show Reid up, further testament to the tight race. Most analysts believe the election could go either way, with the Senate majority leader struggling to survive as Nevadans start early voting this Saturday.
"I wouldn't call it momentum so much as what you would expect to happen as undecided voters start to drift a little bit toward the nonincumbent," Mason-Dixon pollster Brad Coker said of Angle's slight gains. "At the end of the day, if Nevada voters really want to get rid of Reid, they'll vote for just about anybody. And I've always said this race is a referendum on Reid."
When "leaners" are included, Angle remains 2 percentage points over Reid, 48-46. Leaners are undecided voters asked to make a choice among candidates as if the Nov. 2 election were now.
The survey also found that Angle and Reid supporters were largely locked into their decisions, with only 1 percent of her backers saying they might change their minds and 5 percent of his.
"She needs to hold the majority of independents to stay competitive," said Jennifer Duffy of the Cook Political Report. "It's going to be one of those races where every single vote counts."
Duffy drew a comparison to Olympic figure-skating to describe what voters might be looking for in the debate, to be broadcast live from the Vegas PBS studio.
"You want to either see some quadruple jumps -- or you want to see somebody fall," Duffy said. "The outcome depends on whether or not one of them makes a mistake."
The telephone survey of 625 likely Nevada voters statewide was taken Monday and Tuesday.
Reid remains highly unpopular, with 52 percent of voters having an unfavorable opinion of him compared with 40 percent who have a favorable view. Opinions of Angle are less harsh: She has a 43 percent unfavorable rating and 41 percent favorable, a slight improvement over three weeks ago.
Both candidates and outside groups have been running millions of dollars in negative TV ads to sway voters. The spots initially damaged Angle, giving Reid the edge after the June 8 primaries. But the ad wars seem to have settled into a brutal back and forth that has left viewers a bit numb.
More than two-thirds of voters, or 64 percent, said the TV ads are "not an important factor at all" in affecting their voting decision, according to the poll.
"They're lying," said Eric Herzik, political science professor at the University of Nevada, Reno. "Everybody says they don't like negative ads, but they watch them. And if you ask them specific questions about the candidates, the information comes from the negative ads."
Several of Angle's ads attack Reid as the "best friend" of illegal immigrants for pushing for comprehensive immigration reform that could one day allow undocumented workers to become U.S. citizens, an unpopular move as Nevada suffers a record 14.4 percent jobless rate.
More than half of Nevadans oppose such immigration reform, including the key nonpartisan swing voters, according to the new Mason-Dixon survey that tracks with previous polls on the issue.
Also unpopular are some of Reid's signature accomplishments in the Senate, including passage of the $787 billion economic stimulus and the new health care reform law, which more than half of Nevadans want to repeal, according to the latest poll.
Asked about President Barack Obama's actions to stabilize the economy, 45 percent said they have hurt, 29 percent said they have improved things, 21 percent said no effect and 5 percent weren't sure. As Senate majority leader, Reid is responsible for passing Obama's agenda.
Nevada voters were divided on whether they agree with the "agenda" of the Tea Party movement, which backs Angle and her philosophy of smaller government and less taxes and spending.
Some 44 percent said they support the agenda, 44 percent said they did not and another 12 percent were not sure, according to the poll. Among Republicans, 77 percent support the philosophy while 73 percent of Democrats do not. There's much division among independents, with 41 percent not supporting the agenda, 36 percent agreeing with it and 23 percent not sure.
Duffy said the Tea Party movement has two layers, one consisting of conservative Republicans such as Angle and the other involving people "who wear funny hats and go to rallies," including fringe elements that have hurt the reputation of the "Tea Party" label.
"There are a lot of people who are sympathetic to the movement, but they wouldn't necessarily tell a pollster, 'I'm in the Tea Party movement,' " she said. "They're not necessarily into funny hats."
The Angle campaign said the latest Mason-Dixon poll tracks with what it sees as an election starting to go her way, although spokesman Jarrod Agen said he expected a close race to the end.
"Sharron is slowly gaining in support and this is an encouraging sign for us," Agen said. "The economy is the No. 1 issue to voters and Harry Reid is responsible. I don't see how Harry's going to change this trend. He's spent a lot of money on negative ads, and he hasn't been able to put any separation between him and Sharron. I think we are right on course to win."
The Reid campaign dismissed the poll findings and took a shot at the Review-Journal, which recently endorsed Angle on its editorial pages.
"The paper has to do everything possible to try to help her because its editors know that Nevadans are rejecting Angle's lies and her extreme agenda," Reid spokesman Jon Summers said in an e-mail. "Fortunately the R-J's polls are historically poor predictors of election day results."
The last Mason-Dixon poll for the Review-Journal ahead of the GOP primary predicted Angle would likely win, although she gained far more support than anyone expected at 40 percent.
Coker of Mason-Dixon agreed with most political analysts that the Senate race probably would come down to whether Angle's grassroots supporters and the enthusiastic GOP base will turn out to vote in higher numbers than Democrats, which have a 60,000 registered voter advantage in Nevada.
Reid and the Nevada Democratic Party are highly organized and have been working closely with Obama's "Organizing For America" extension of the national party to get out the vote. The question remains, however, whether Reid can move voters to the polls a dozen years after his last close race.
"It's been 12 years since he really had to turn out people," Coker said. "If you haven't driven your car on the highway for a while, you're never quite sure how fast it's going to go when you get out there."

Every other Thursday night from February 17 through May 26 at 7pm, we will screen an acclaimed film that poses a difficult moral question (scroll down for schedule) in the Vine Auditorium at the JCC (click here for directions). Then, Feinberg (click here for more about him) will moderate a discussion with a panel of locals with interesting perspectives on the subject (rabbis, priests, doctors, educators, etc.), and, in most cases a star, director, or producer of the screened film (several are Oscar nominees and/or winners).
The cost is $9 per screening (which can be paid at the door).

Seemed like one, maybe, but it won't be one, says Nintendo. Advertisement In a recent financial Q&A, Nintendo honcho Satoru Iwata talked about paid DLC and Animal Crossing, noting that the power of money could not only impact gameplay, but change it, perhaps even making the experience, as Iwata called it, "unwholesome".Iwata frequently discussed the issue with the Animal Crossing team, and can now say, "That sort of element [paid DLC] is absolutely not being added." Advertisement Fantastic news for Animal Crossing players, who might have been worried that Nintendo would turn AC into some sort of paid add-on nightmare.Previously, Iwata told Kotaku that Nintendo didn't want gamers to feel "cheated or deceived" by DLC, adding that the paid experience should add to the experience and not detract from it. 2012年10月25日(木)第2四半期決算説明会 [AC]Kotaku East is your slice of Asian internet culture, bringing you the latest talking points from Japan, Korea, China and beyond.

--I too bought the Shock Doctor Power compression short with bioflex cup.
Works spectacularly. For both Grappling and striking.
I've used it primarily for muay thai and judo, on the ground when I have used it I barely notice it's there after a few minutes. It does hold up well to accidental low blows (though in a fight you *might* want to purchase the metal insert on mmawarehouse.com for it, just my personal thought)
As Deadmeat said, the quality thus far is spectacular, I wash it every 2 weeks, still no problems yet, stitching and material is holding up amiably. It feels appropriately tight, yet not constrictive. In a word, it's perfect as far as cups I've used. (Comparing to having used a TKD style jock strap cup, and a boxing groin protector)
For $30 it might seem steep in comparison to to say a regular run of the mill cup, but I can assure you it's well worth the $. Same goes for the shock doctor mouthpiece I'm using.

--One thing I would like to add, get baseball slider shorts. They have the cup pouch and padding on the thighs. It takes a little of the sting out of leg kicks.

--i have a shock doctor, and while it's better than other's i've tried i still find the edges don't fit snug against my legs rather than floating on top of my junk. I'm gonna try this:

Okay I have 2 pair of shock doctor compression shorts, one 27-29 and one 30-32, because I had the 30-32 first and it felt a little to lose (but it is okay) so I got a 27-29 which is a little bit to tight. So far I used the first pair for 60+ hours and it is worn out a little but nothing to bother about so far.
What is strange though, the pants are the same, but I have two different biofelx cups.
Their general size is almost the same but one is a single piece, while the other one is made of one flex part on one part that has a "carbon" look and is "bolted" to the rest of the cup at three places (one at the bottom, one top left and one top right). I wonder if this has any influence on the "protection" because since they are changeable I can pick.
PS: If needed I can take pictures.
Edit: Oh and for some reason the insert for the cup is on the inside of the short, not on the outside as shown in the picture...Sometimes you lose and sometimes the other guy wins.
At this point I don't owe anybody an explenation.

--Easily better than any cup and jock strap I had before. If I'm not paying attention I forget that I'm wearing it, as opposed to having to constantly adjust it after every kick with the strap. I have also taken some direct groin shots not even flinched, so I think it's pretty solid. No problems with it shifting either during stretching or anything like that either.

--These shock doctors are alright, but they got nothing on Diamond MMA's cup and compression shorts! Id recommend it to anyone who plays any type of contact sport, you can get kicked right in the jewels and you wont feel a thing! actually check out this video!
Hope that helps!

The Vamps' "Somebody to You" is pacing for a debut sales week in the 18-20,000 territory.
In two weeks, The Vamps' "Somebody to You (featuring Demi Lovato)" will officially impact pop radio in the United States.
This week, the band's "Somebody to You" EP is making a minor stir in the marketplace.
Far from a colossal hit, the EP will nonetheless claim a respectable position on next week's Billboard 200. Hits Daily Double expects the release will garner debut week sales in the 18-20,000 range.
NOW 51 is expected to reign as the week's best-seller with sales in the 90-100,000 range. HITS says Godsmack's "1000hp" will follow among newcomers with 45-50,000, while Spoon's "They Want My Soul" looks good for 35-40,000 first week sales.

All are welcome and we tolerate no personal attacks, sarcasm, or even indirect denigration. IDEAS RULE and stand on their own.

Categories Comments What to do for fun Depends on the location. Main campus is located in the middle of corn fields. Extension centers are spread throughout Southern Illinois. Catching up with friends, watching a play, or catching a game are the extent of fun on campus
Food and Dining A affordable cafeteria lunch with a wide array of vending machines. No nearby cafes or alternatives though, unless attending classes through an extension center.
Dorm Life No dorms. A travel school, because most students live thirty minutes tops from the school.
Academic Rigor A great in-between school to bridge the gap between high school and the university life
In three sentences A great local community college! Small class size, affordable tuition, and helpful teachers! A very enjoyable experience.

Vanilla Sky
Four years ago, Spanish sensation Alejandro Amenábar (The Others, Thesis) directed a hazy film that lumped science-fiction, incoherent dream sequences, and shallow notions about beauty around a arrogant lead character. Tom Cruise took an instant interest. He now stars in Cameron Crowe's American remake. With pitch-perfect pop successes like Jerry McGuire and Almost Famous under his belt, one would think that Crowe could fine-tune such dissonant source material. Yet he films Vanilla Sky with scene-by-scene reverence for Open Your Eyes, its Castillian predecessor. Penélope Cruz even reprises her original role, although this time around the English-language line readings further strain her slim actorly resources. The initial plot is pure tabloid: Cruise abandons his psychotic girlfriend (Diaz) for Cruz. The jilted ex then savagely disfigures him and takes her own life in the process. The rest of the movie deals with Cruise's disfigured playboy trying to come to grips with reality, primarily by shifting from dream to waking in increasingly uninteresting and difficult-to-follow ways. A half-baked sci-fi denouement trumps the muck that preceded it, plunging Vanilla Sky to the ground and securing its status as one of the year's biggest disappointments. |

The 1996 Batard-Montrachet is a magnificent wine … matured but with quite a long way to full maturity. In the nose citrus – lime and lemon – infused white and yellow orchard fruits, hint of acacia .. all brought forward by the intense and powerful minerality. On the palate quite tight and edgy at first but unfolds beautifully in the glass offering more and more refinement. It's a classic Batard .. muscular and weighty with a very powerful underlying minerality … it's long, intense and perfectly balanced by the vibrant and energetic 1996 acidity. Need 5 years more if it's from a cold cellar .. but can be enjoyed now … what a treat .. love these 1996s.
